Chapter 1825 Funeral

ps: old question, post it first, then change it later

A few days later, in the mansion of the Tosaka family, Aoi Tosaka, Rin Tosaka, Sakura Tosaka and Cheng Ito sat facing each other.

A few days after releasing Tohsaka Aoi that day, Ito Cheng sent Tohsaka Sakura back to Tohsaka’s house in the name of a holiday, and that’s it, Ito Cheng seemed to create Tohsaka just as he would Tokiomi's death, and as Tohsaka Sakura's master, sent Tohsaka Aoi information that could help.

"Thank you, don't bother." Aoi Tohsaka, who still had a sad face on her face, shook her head slightly and refused.

"That's fine. But I still say the same thing, just tell me if you have anything to do, after all, I am also Sakura's master, and I should help you." Ito Cheng nodded slightly in agreement.

"Thank you." Tohsaka Aoi thanked again.

"Sakura, you should stay at home with your mother during this time, and return to my place after a while." Ito Cheng turned his head and looked at Tohsaka Sakura who was beside him, whose eyes were red from crying.

"I see, Brother Cheng." Tohsaka Sakura sobbed.

Aoi Tohsaka opened her mouth when she heard the words, but did not refute in the end, and acquiesced.

"Then I won't bother you, and I'm leaving." Ito Cheng got up and said.

"I'll see you off." Aoi Tohsaka got up and said.

"No need." Ito Cheng smiled and waved his hand, refusing.

"Mother, let me give it to you." Rin Tohsaka said with a calm expression as if he hadn't heard the news of his father's death.

"Alright then." Aoi Tohsaka thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.

Although Tohsaka Rin is still young, he is a magician after all, and he is also the head of the Tohsaka family appointed by Tohsaka Tokiomi, no matter in terms of identity or nature.They are more suitable than her mother who is an ordinary person.

Seeing this, Ito Cheng didn't force it, so he greeted Tohsaka Aoi and Tohsaka Sakura again, and walked out of the house accompanied by Tohsaka Rin.

"You are strong, Rin." On the way.Ito Cheng said softly.

"If you are not strong, do you want to cry like ordinary girls? That will only make other people laugh and gossip about our Tosaka family. I don't want to give them such a chance." Tosaka Rin said with a snort.

"Too rigid is easy to break. Appropriately showing a little weakness can reduce the hostility of the outside world. And no matter what, you are still a child, if you are weak, no one will say anything."

"No need." Tohsaka Rin replied unceremoniously.

"It's up to you." After a short silence, Ito Cheng sighed softly, "But for Sakura's sake, I will help you with the magic engraving. But I don't guarantee how effective it will be. After all I'm also one of the ostracized ones for the Clocktower guys."

"Thank you, the Tosaka family will definitely remember your kindness." Tosaka Rin stopped and saluted Ito Cheng solemnly.

"That's not necessary." Ito Cheng waved his hand.

Then the two started their steps again and quietly walked out of the courtyard of Tohsaka's house.

"Okay, let's go here. You go back." Standing at the door, Ito Cheng said to Tohsaka Rin next to him.

"Okay, good luck." Tohsaka Rin said politely.

Ito Cheng nodded slightly, stepped forward, and soon disappeared from Tohsaka Rin's sight.

"and after my skin has been destroyed, yetin myfleshiwillseegod;imyselfwillseehimwithmyowneyes—i, and not another. howmyheartyearnswithinme...amen."

After half a year.

In an open-air cemetery on the outskirts of Fuyuki City.A group of men and women dressed in black stood in front of a well-dug hole, while quietly listening to the priest—Kotomine Kirei's prayer in English, while silently watching several helpers use shovels to dig into the hole. Filled with earth, buried the lacquered wooden coffin inside.

This is Tohsaka Tokiomi's funeral.

After about half a year of discussion, exchange of benefits, and other procedures, the magic seal of the Tohsaka family was finally successfully transplanted to the wrist of the current head of the Tohsaka family, Rin Tohsaka.However, compared with the original one, the magic engraving has shrunk by more than half, and I don't know how many times it has shrunk.As for this, Cheng Ito kept his promise, returned to the clock tower during this period, and obtained the result after bargaining with the identity of 'Huang'.According to the standard of the original work, it would be considered good to leave the last tenth.

"You have worked hard. Your debut as a new generation of patriarch is already very good. I believe your father will also feel proud." After presiding over the funeral, Kotomine Kirei walked to Tohsaka Rin's side, and put his hand on Rin as if encouraging said over her shoulder.

"I will stay in Japan for a while... Do you have any worries about the future?"

"...It's nothing. I've troubled you too much, and I'm fine now." Tohsaka Rin said in a strong tone without even looking at Kotomine Kirei.Could it be that she already knew that Kotomine Kirei was the real murderer who killed her father.It's just his instinctive dislike for her who clearly promised her, but failed to protect her father. It's simple and direct.

"The next time we meet will be half a year later. The second engraving transplant will be performed at that time. Please take care of your body." Kotomine Kirei, who was only amused by Rin's disgust, said.

"Even if you don't tell me, I know."

"I think I'll be working outside most of the time in the future, and I'm sorry but I don't think I'll be able to settle down in Japan. I'm really not qualified as a protector—"

"It doesn't matter if you're busy. I'll take care of my mother and the Tohsaka family naturally if you're not around. As for you going to fight heresy or do other things, as long as you don't cause us any trouble."

Hearing Rin Tohsaka's brave words, Kotomine Kirei suddenly felt an evil taste in his heart and said.

"Rin, from now on you will be the head of the Tohsaka tribe. To celebrate this special day, I will give you a gift."

After speaking, he raised his arm lightly, and took out a beautiful dagger with a sheath from his arms.And this dagger is nothing else, it was a handicraft of the Tosaka family that was presented by Tosaka Tokiomi as a gift half a year ago, and Kotomine Kirei used it as a murder weapon to stab into Tosaka Tokiomi's body and ended his life '—the sword of azoth.

"This is what I got when my magic practice achievement was recognized by Master Tokiomi in the past—I think it's better for you to hold it from now on."

Rin Tohsaka took the dagger and looked at it carefully.

"...Father..." Tohsaka Rin suddenly whispered, and then a drop of water fell on the surface of the dagger, reflecting Tohsaka Rin's reflection.

This is the first time Rin Tohsaka shed tears in the past six months.And for Kotomine Kirei who is mentally twisted, this is without a doubt the best delicacy in the world.

"Rin." But just when he was about to savor it with confidence, a soft calling came from a distance.

It was Aoi Tohsaka's voice.

Hearing the call, Rin Tohsaka quickly raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face, restored to his best appearance, and said to Kotomine Kirei, "Mother called me."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked towards Tohsaka Aoi and Tohsaka Sakura who was with Tohsaka Aoi.

"Are you satisfied?" Immediately afterwards, a familiar male voice rang in Kotomine Kirei's ear.

Kotomine Kirei turned around and looked at the person coming.

That was the dangerous person he had always been on guard against, and he couldn't guess the other party's mind—the person who survived the Holy Grail War like him and Emiya Kiritsugu, Ito Cheng.

Kotomine Kirei looked at Ito Cheng silently.

"I will stay in Japan for a while... Do you have any worries about the future?"

"...It's nothing. I've troubled you too much, and I'm fine now." Tohsaka Rin said in a strong tone without even looking at Kotomine Kirei.It's not that she already knew that Kotomine Kirei was the real murderer who killed her father, but it's just an instinctive dislike for him who clearly promised her, but failed to protect his father. And direct.

"The next time we meet will be half a year later. The second engraving transplant will be performed at that time. Please take care of your body." Kotomine Kirei, who was only amused by Rin's disgust, said.

"Even if you don't tell me, I know."

"I think I'll be working outside most of the time in the future, and I'm sorry but I don't think I'll be able to settle down in Japan. I'm really not qualified as a protector—"

Rin Tohsaka took the dagger and looked at it carefully.
