Chapter 828 Hero? No, just a hobby

As one of the three great families, the Matou family had begun to decline many years ago, otherwise they would not have allowed the children of the Tōsaka family to inherit their family's magic seal.

You have to know that for a family of magicians, magic seals are secrets that cannot be known to outsiders.

After reaching this agreement with Tōsaka Tokiomi, it seemed that Matou Zouken had no other choice. In order to prevent the family from extinction after his death, he might as well take a gamble and hand over the inheritance.

Most magicians who know about this hold this idea.

But in reality, the opposite is true.

Matou Zouken is very ambitious and is a very shrewd person.

For him, Sakura Tousaka is an indispensable part of the implementation of his plan.

In his opinion, since the Einzbern family can make a container to hold the Holy Grail, he can do it too.

By utilizing the many wonderful uses of insect engravings, it is not difficult to accomplish the feat of occupying the magpie's nest.

This is his deepest secret.

How would you feel if a stranger told you the thing you least wanted others to know in person?
Matou Zouken didn't know it before, but now he knows it very clearly.

In a mansion with an ancient atmosphere.

He looked at his eldest son and the uninvited stranger, and suddenly a bright smile appeared on his wrinkled face.

“Kareya, is there something wrong with your friend’s brain?”

The fourth war is going on right now, and Tōsaka Tokiomi has the strongest hero king Gilgamesh, and is at the peak of his career. Being targeted by such a guy is not a good experience at all.

This is a very clever way of speaking. After listening to it, Matou Kariya also felt that what Amber said just now was too much of personal imagination.

Even though Sakura suffered a lot, overall, the magic seal was also progressing synchronously.

"Maybe what he said is true? Since I have agreed to participate in this Holy Grail War on behalf of the family, then Sakura has no role to play, right? Wasn't the reason you went to the Tosaka family to talk about this matter because of the Holy Grail?"

He certainly couldn't say what was in his mind in front of his father, but instead he looked like he believed it.

Hearing Matou Kariya's answer, Matou Zouken's smile paused, and an inky black color spread from his pupils. The whites of his eyes gradually disappeared until they became completely black.

The bald head, which was originally quite round, suddenly had a layer of something like keratin, which made him look like a monster with an insect head.

"Do you think so, my child?"

Matou Zouken stared at Matou Kariya, his eyes devoid of any warmth, "You brought an outsider to your home to threaten your father, and you did it for the sake of a child of a woman who's already married."

"Although Aoi is married, the feelings and experiences that existed before will not disappear with time."

If it were in the past, seeing Matou Zouken like this, Matou Kariya might be so scared that he couldn't speak, but now, with the courage given by Amber, he even suppressed the instinctive fear of the insect magic mark in his body, "Leave Sakura to me, I will take her away from here."

"Hehehe."

Matou Zouken laughed, but did not continue to say anything more on this topic. Instead, he said, "The spell in your hand has disappeared, and you have lost the qualification to participate in the competition. Is it the guy next to you who gave you the courage? In that case, let me let you feel the despair first."

"despair?"

Amber, who had been silent the whole time, refocused her eyes, "Didn't you hear it yet?"

"what?"

The expression on Matou Zouken's face became solemn. He could not care about his son's thoughts, but the sudden appearance of this stranger and those eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything gave him an unspeakable sense of threat.

"I know you have many ways to save your life, old man."

Amber whispered: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you are dead or alive, just don't appear in front of me." Matou Zouken frowned again.

That's it again.

He suddenly changed the subject mid-sentence.

But this time he didn't intend to tolerate it any longer.

The extremely hidden magic seal appeared, and Matou Zouken was about to use this body made entirely of insects to surprise the opponent, but then he was shocked to find that he had lost his
boom!
With a loud bang, under the astonished gaze of Matou Kariya, his father's body swelled and twisted a few times, and then like a balloon filled with air, it turned into dust along with the insects.

"What I promised you is to take the little girl away. This old guy doesn't have much ability, but his ability to save his life is first-rate. As long as the main body is not found, he can be resurrected infinitely through magic."

Amber said casually: "We have other things to do. We can't waste time here."

"Okay then, I'll go find Sakura."

In fact, Matou Kariya didn't really want to kill Zōken, he just wanted to take the child away from the devil's cave.

At the same time, in a room not far from here.

Sakura Matou, who was wiping the floor, suddenly stiffened. With a movement in her throat, something that looked like a snake swam out of her mouth.

This is the real name of Matou Zouken, Mushi.

He had treated the girl as a vessel from the very beginning, and everything he had done before was just to destroy her mind.

Just when there were some results, I was faced with the consequence of having to leave.

Just now when facing Amber, the clone died suddenly without even knowing what happened. For an old ghost who has lived for five hundred years and has cultivated his perception ability to the extreme, there is nothing more terrifying than this.

Unpredictable magic means there is no solution.

She still has ideals that must be achieved and cannot just die here.

Sakura Matou knelt on the ground, staring blankly at the disgusting stuff she had vomited out and flew out of the window. Her dead eyes did not fluctuate at all.

Wow!
The door was opened, and Matou Kariya saw her. His face, which had become ferocious due to worry, began to soften.

"cherry"

He wanted to take him away, but before he could say anything, the already violent bugs in his body suddenly went crazy and started to eat frantically.

Internal organs, brain.
However, in just a few breaths, Matou Kariya turned into a dried corpse. After doing all this, the insects inside seemed to have completed their final mission and became silent.

The insect magic given by Matou Zouken requires the consumption of life to be used.

This is not because he deliberately treats his son as a consumable, but because Matou Kariya really has no talent. If he wants to reach the level of becoming a Master, he can only rely on those bugs.

As a guy who likes to play tricks, he must have prepared a back-up plan.

Just because Matou Zouken can't do anything to Amber, that doesn't mean he can't do anything to Matou Kariya.

This is the punishment for betrayal.

Sakura Matou looked at the corpse, tilted her head and thought for a while, then took out a pencil from the table behind her and gently poked the shriveled arm.

Dead.
There was gradually some light in her eyes, but it was a very sick look.

Amber stood outside the door, watching the scene quietly.

As expected, Matou Kariya's ending was destined from the very beginning.
