Nobody understands cardboard people better than me

Chapter 360 Qualified Patriarch, Unqualified Father
"As expected of you, Tokiomi. For the glory of the family, you are really admirable for being able to play around with the wind.

A second ago, he said that he would adopt Sakura to the Jiantong family. Seeing that Jiantong Zouyan was scared away by me, the next moment he wanted Sakura to worship me as his teacher?Aren't you afraid that Jiantong Zouyan will slow down and take revenge on you? "

As soon as Huang Chengyang finished speaking, before Tohsaka Tokiomi could answer, a shrill scream suddenly came from the Matou family's house behind him. Judging from the sound, it should be the escaped Matou Zouyan.

Subsequently, a raging fire swept through this ancient house with a history of more than 100 years.

"Ah..."

Huang Chengyang was speechless immediately.

He had just fooled Tohsaka Tokiomi by saying that Matou Zouken would retaliate against him, and in the blink of an eye Joan had killed the old bug, and by the way, set fire to the entire Matou's house.

Hiss, my face hurts.

"Master, it's done, I guarantee that the dirty bug will never die again, and there is absolutely no possibility of resurrection."

In the sea of ​​flames, Joan of Arc walked out slowly surrounded by the flames like a flame queen.

The terrifying heat didn't seem to bother her at all.

"Master? Are you the Master?"

Tohsaka Tokiomi was stunned.

The Holy Grail War is about to begin, and he originally planned to go back and start preparing to summon his followers after adopting Tohsaka Sakura to the Matou family this time.

Unexpectedly, at this time, I met other masters and heroic spirits.

Subconsciously, he panicked.

But after inadvertently glancing at his arm, he calmed down again.

No, I'm not the Master yet. According to the rules, Heroic Spirits and Masters are not allowed to attack ordinary people for no reason. I'm afraid of a fart!

"Yes, I am the Master, and I am your enemy in the upcoming Holy Grail War. What, are you afraid?"

"Cough, Your Excellency is joking. I am just an ordinary magician, how could I participate in the Holy Grail War." Tokiomi Tohsaka smiled sarcastically.

Huang Chengyang shook his head slightly, a little disappointed that Tosaka Tokiomi was so cowardly, but felt it was reasonable.

"Tokiomi, Maqili Zorgen is dead, and the Matou family has become history, so please take care of yourself."

"Matou Zouken is really Maqili Zorgen? How did he live for more than 500 years?"

Tosaka Tokiomi exclaimed, and he still couldn't believe it when he heard Huang Chengyang mention the name again.

"Heh, it's just a waste that delusions of immortality. He abandoned his original body, turned himself into a worm, and achieved the goal of immortality by parasitizing others. The previous generations of Ma Tong Patriarchs are not so much his heirs as he is. He has carefully selected the container, and when the time is right, he will erase the consciousness of that body and replace it by himself."

"That is to say, the heads of the Matou family in the past generations are actually the same person, that is, Maqili Zorgen?" Tosaka Tokiomi frowned.

"That's right. His current body has decayed. Your daughter Tohsaka Sakura is the next body he chooses. It can be said that if I don't show up, Sakura will die painfully under the torture of Matou Zouken, and then become Matou Zouken's new body. Tokiomi, you are such a good father."

"Damn!"

Tohsaka Tokiomi cursed viciously, clenched his fists tightly.

From Matou Zouken's abnormal performance just now, he knew that what the man in the strange armor said was probably true.

Therefore, all my plans were delusional, and I even pushed my own daughter into the fire pit with my own hands!

"Thank you for letting me know, otherwise I will really make a big mistake!"

"After such a thing happened, I am speechless in the face of Sakura. Please accept Sakura as a disciple. I am very grateful."

"Oh? You're still "undead", so you're not afraid that I'm the same kind of person as Jiantong Zouyan?"

"Not afraid." Saying that, Tohsaka Tokiomi pointed to Joan of Arc beside him.

"Although I don't know who this servant of yours is, the bright aura exuding from her body cannot be faked. Having such a servant willingly serve you means that you must not be an evil person."

Tohsaka Tokiomi naturally had his reasons for saying this.

Although the servants are all summoned using the holy relic as a medium.

But there is a relationship between the follower and the master.

The master chooses the servant, and the servant also chooses the master.

If it was an evil person, then he would never want to summon a follower from the light camp.

It's like making a joke of your own life.

Although under normal circumstances there will be no such thing as a servant killing the master, but there are no exceptions.
After all, there have indeed been several incidents of slaves killing masters in history.

Some are caused by placing their own status very high and calling followers around.

You know, the followers are all famous and big figures in history, regardless of strength, as long as they can leave their lives in the history books, they are not ordinary people like you and me. Disrespect for others is already a death sentence Got it.

There is another kind, as I just said, the compatibility between the servant and the master is not good.

You, a master of the chaotic evil camp, summon a follower of the orderly good camp, it's like a demon ordering an angel, it's no wonder if you don't fight.

And the servants are far stronger than humans. As the master of the weak, just relying on the unreliable three-time coercive command ability will not be able to save his dog's life.

Therefore, since the female heroic spirit does not seem to reject this unknown master, it is enough to show that this person is not a bad person, and Tohsaka Tokiomi is quite relieved to hand over Sakura to him.

"Heh, for the sake of how cute Sakura is, I agreed. I'll get lost, before I leave and try to kill your incompetent father."

Taking Sakura's little hand from Tohsaka Tokiomi, Huang Chengyang looked at him coldly.

"Please, Your Excellency."

Saying that, Tohsaka Tokiomi bowed deeply to Huang Chengyang, then turned and walked away without looking back.

"Father."

Tohsaka Sakura looked at her father's back, with deep reluctance in her eyes.

But just as Tohsaka Tokiomi thought, she was very "obedient", so even so, she didn't keep crying like ordinary children.

"Ugh...."

Huang Chengyang shook his head regretfully.

I didn't expect Tohsaka Tokiomi to be so unfeeling, to actually just give Sakura to himself, and then leave resolutely, without a trace of nostalgia.

Tokiomi Tohsaka?
Oh, sure enough, he is only suitable to be a qualified patriarch, not a qualified father.

"Is your name Tohsaka Sakura?"

Crouching down, Huang Chengyang and the little girl looked down on her and gently rubbed her head.

"Hmm," Tohsaka Sakura timidly responded.

However, the handsomeness of decade's armor is beyond the comprehension of an ignorant girl who has never seen the face of the card, so she instinctively hid behind Joan of Arc, who exuded a very comfortable aura all over her body.

"Master, you scared her."

Joan of Arc first calmed Tohsaka Sakura's emotions, and then looked at Huang Chengyang with a face of reproach.
