The Holy Grail Battles Chapter 6

The Victor Toosaka Residence stands on a high slope in the mountain town of Fuyuki City. Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the setting sun is emitting its last bit of warmth, and the warm red light illuminates the entire house.

The head of the Tohsaka family, Tohsaka Victor Toosaka, sat in front of a huge desk, holding a glass of red wine in his hand and shaking it slowly.

"I didn't expect that guy to sneak into the Holy Grail War." Victor Toosaka muttered to himself. Although he sounded like he was complaining about something, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Jason told me that he seemed to have seized the qualifications of the Matou family." Philip Kotomine stood behind Tōsaka Victor Toosaka with a stern face. He certainly knew who his teacher was talking about.

Evan, a mysterious magician, suddenly appeared in Fuyuki a year ago, broke through the entire Matou residence, and then sent Victor Toosaka Sakura back. He also exaggeratedly told Victor Toosaka what Sakura almost suffered.

Upon hearing that Sakura was almost killed by the old bug, Victor Toosaka was both angry and scared, and he wished he could take the insecticide and fight the old bug to the death on the spot.

Yes, Victor Toosaka actually cares about Sakura very much. He is not indifferent as some people say and treats Sakura as a tool. As a magician, he still has the love of a father.

In the Chrono Dimension Hanazawa Daisen written by Mushi, the original author of fsn, Victor Toosaka was so angry just by seeing Lucas Matou bringing Sakura to the battlefield and putting her in danger that he asked the Matou family to return the custody of Sakura. How could he possibly bear to see Sakura suffer such torture?

After all, he adopted Sakura into the Matou family in order to inherit the Matou family's magic. Even if she couldn't become an insect manipulator like Aburame Shino, she should at least be able to do seven consecutive jumps in the air with the insect manipulator stick, right?

Although he knew that Sakura's physique needed to be changed, it was obvious that there were many more gentle physical modification rituals, and everything Henry Matou did was just to satisfy his own perverted desires.

So, after Sakura was sent back, the Victor Toosaka family thanked Evan very much and gave him a large sum of money. After all, the Victor Toosaka family is very wealthy now, which is different from many years later when they need to sell their property to make a living.

After that day, Victor Toosaka began to investigate the mysterious Evan. Although his behavior was very eccentric, his strange light magic was very powerful.

However, no matter how Victor Toosaka investigated, he could not find any trace of this Evan, as if such a person suddenly appeared in the world.

Therefore, Victor Toosaka had no choice but to give up and accept the fact that there was such a powerful and mysterious magician living in Fuyuki.

After all, Evan usually behaves very law-abidingly. He never smokes, drinks, or perms his hair, and he never plays marbles. Every day, he either stays at home playing video games or fishing, or he comes to the Victor Toosaka family for meals and bullies Victor Toosaka Rin.

Unexpectedly, today Evan, who had been idle for a year, suddenly came to the Victor Toosaka residence with a purple-haired young man, a heroic spirit.

"Look, this is the big thug of the Knights of the Round Table, King Arthur's double-flowered red stick, and the Knight of the Lake, Mark!" Evan patted the purple-haired man beside him with a very proud look, while the man called Mark had a wry smile on his face.

"I say, Ajie, is it really okay for you to reveal your true name of the Heroic Spirit right at the start? You have to know that we are enemies now." Victor Toosaka looked helpless. This is the Holy Grail War that takes place once every sixty years. Can you please show some respect?

Thinking of other opponents, the magician killer Emiya Kiritsugu, the clock tower instructor Kenneth, just reading out their names carries a solemn aura, and then looking at the nonchalant young man in front of him.

What is this? A husky suddenly sneaks into the wolf pack?

"Well, even if I don't tell you actively, you will definitely come to investigate me later, so it's better to tell you earlier." Evan's words were reasonable and convincing.

"Besides, the Holy Grail War is just like a social gathering, seven people, seven heroes, seven nights together, a large-scale dating show."

Listening to Evan's twisted logic, Tōsaka Victor Toosaka couldn't help but want to explain to him the cruelty of the Holy Grail War, to let him know why it was called a war and not some Seven Days Holy Grail Gathering. However, seeing Evan's indifferent look, he knew that it would be useless for him to say anything, so he decided to get the topic back on track.

"Let's get down to business. What exactly are you doing here at my house? Are you just here to show off your heroic spirit? Or do you want to discuss some kind of cooperation with me?"

"I just want you to help me find someone. There is a murderer named Nathan Uesugi. The police can't find him no matter what. I suddenly got magical powers, and I also want to get rid of this harm to the people and make some contributions to society."

"Nathan..." Victor Toosaka muttered, then turned around and operated a device next to him that was similar to an experimental device commonly known as a Y-shaped pendulum.

Unlike physical science instruments, the pendulum of the Y-shaped pendulum is hung with a magical gem inherited from the Tousaka family. In addition, the ink of the gem can be wetted along the hanging rope, and the ink and gem can be used to function as a fax machine.

Whatever I wrote here at that time, the corresponding machine would also write the same words.

"Yes, it's this guy. He has killed dozens of people in just a few days. I can't sleep or eat unless I get rid of him..."

Seeing that Evan was still bragging, Victor Toosaka quickly interrupted him and asked, "What are the benefits?"

"Ah, this, I still need to give you some benefits? How embarrassing." Evan scratched his head awkwardly. "Then you can give me some as you see fit. If all else fails, you can give me a banner saying I'm a good citizen of Fuyuki."

Tōsaka Victor Toosaka forced himself to suppress the cross that appeared on his head and tried to calm himself down. "I mean, my benefit. I provide you with information, what can you do for me?"

"Oh, I see." Evan looked as if he had just woken up from a dream. "How about I help you kill Alice?"

"Kill Alice?" Victor Toosaka looked at the two people in front of him and gently shook his glass. "Sabaer is supposed to be the strongest among the seven classes."

"It doesn't matter. You see, my Xiaolan is just unlucky. If I had summoned her earlier, maybe Alice would have been his."

Hearing Evan's words, Mark's eyes were filled with bitterness. "Master, I am a sinner, and I cannot bear the noble position of Alice. I, who contributed to the destruction of Britain, should be a beast-like Berserker."

"Hey, Xiaolan, I'm unhappy when you say that." Evan shook his head.

"Master, the mistakes I have made are too numerous to list." Mark lowered his head.

"No, Xiaolan, your whole idea is wrong." Evan said seriously.

Mark: (?ω｀)

"Isn't it because you cheated on King Arthur? Isn't it because of you that the Round Table was dissolved? Isn't it because of you that Britain was destroyed? It's not a big deal. After all, you are French, so it's understandable."

Mark felt like he was stabbed a thousand times in the heart: 

What does it have to do with me being French? Apologize to France! What sin have I committed to be summoned by such a master?
