Compared with the high-spiritedness when I saw it three years ago, Tosaka Tokiomi in front of him looks like a real middle-aged man, with neat hair mixed with silver threads, deep nasolabial folds, a slightly fat body, and a kind of Plain temperament.
If the Tohsaka Tokiomi three years ago still had a sharp temperament, like a sharp knife drawn out of its sheath, then the Tohsaka Tokiomi three years later has been smoothed by life and blended into the crowd.
Regarding Tohsaka Tokiomi's current changes, Koto Higashino just wants to say one thing - MD deserves it!It's good enough to keep you alive.
Higashino rolled his eyes in his heart, but said politely and kindly:
"Long time no see, Tohsaka Tokiomi."
"Assassin..."
Tohsaka Tokiomi's voice trembled as he pronounced the name that terrified him.
It was Higashino Koto, who killed Gilgamesh who he regarded as the strongest follower three years ago, defeated his extremely promising disciple Kotomine Kirei, and took away the Great Holy Grail that should have belonged to him.
Every nightmare that Tohsaka Tokiomi has had in the past three years has Higashino Kanou. He originally thought that he would hate Higashino Kanou very much, but when he saw this nightmare-like figure again, his body was terrified. Trembling, fear crushing hatred!
ps: still 7000...
Chapter 283 280. Death is like the wind, always with me
"Are you really an Assassin?"
Although the oppression from the momentum made Tohsaka Tokiomi feel that the other party's identity was correct, but just to be on the safe side, he still asked, after all, there had been no news of the other party for three years.
Tosaka Tokiomi is not like Emiya Kiritsugu, who investigated Higashino Kanae's true identity through Octavia's intuition; nor is it like Kenneth, who actively revealed some truths to Higashino Kane after gaining Higashino Kanae's friendship; The understanding is still at the Assassin stage of the Servant three years ago.
It's not that Tohsaka Tokiomi didn't continue to investigate Higashino Kou, it's just that after his body was disabled, his status in the magic side plummeted and he was driven to the edge of the magic way.Friends from the past changed their faces one after another, either alienated or directly severed ties, Tokiomi Tohsaka couldn't even seek help.
Although I really don't want to admit it, the Tohsaka family has indeed begun to decline like the Matou family.What Tohsaka Tokiomi can do now is to pin the hope of revival on the next generation, and try to keep the Tohsaka family's family business, and try to leave an extra piece of property for Tohsaka Rin.
"It's indeed me, Mr. Tohsaka can't even recognize me?"
Higashino Sou lifted the mask halfway and placed it on his head, revealing his face and the iconic three-curved jade sharing sharing eyes.
Tohsaka Tokiomi's breathing became short of breath, he covered his heart with his hands, with a pained expression on his face.
"Tokiomi!"
Chancheng Aoi... No, Aoi Tohsaka should be called Tohsaka Tokiomi's change, as if she had been prepared, she hurriedly took out the medicine from her bosom, poured the medicine into Tohsaka Tokiomi's mouth with water, and assisted him eat it.
"Whoo-ha-hoo-ha-"
Tosaka Tokiomi gasped for a while, and his physical condition gradually stabilized.
Higashinozou scanned the other party's body with Sharingan, and found that the other party's vitality was about the same as that of an old man with wind and disease, and various diseases such as heart disease appeared one after another. He lived for five years at most, six years, and probably died soon.
"Mr. Tohsaka, you seem to be in poor health." Higashino Kou leaned on the sofa, folded his hands on his lap, and looked at the other party with scrutiny.
Tohsaka Tokiomi's throat twitched, and his brown-black eyes trembled a little. Out of the good cultivation of a nobleman, he quickly forcibly suppressed this fear, and his posture became calm again.
Looking at Higashino Kou's familiar and aloof figure, Tohsaka Tokiomi thoroughly confirmed the other party's identity in his heart.
If masks and costumes can be faked, then this peerless face and the iconic Sharingan are absolutely impossible to fake. As a follower, Kanou Higashino survived after the Holy Grail War. Changed the contract with the master and became a familiar existence?
In an instant, thousands of thoughts flooded Tohsaka Tokiomi's mind, but Tohsaka Tokiomi didn't have time to think about it, he didn't seem to anger the other party because of his negligence, even if the other party behaved very friendly...
"Because of the magician killer, all the magic circuits in my body have been destroyed, and even the magic seal passed down in my family has suffered a lot of damage. If the magic seal was not transplanted from my body in time, I am afraid that my daughter Rin will inherit it. A scrap."
Tosaka Tokiomi's face was pale, with little blood, and he looked down at his body with a wry smile and said, "This body is already broken, and I don't have many years to live. It also poses no threat to you."
The implication is that because we are so weak, please let us go... Higashino Kou heard what Tohsaka Tokiomi wanted to express.
Compared with Kenneth who was also hit by an origin bomb, Tohsaka Tokiomi did not have the holy water used by Finn to stabilize his injuries. His already broken body and the depression of his will over the past few years made him look like this now Not surprising either.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to seek revenge. Compared to you magicians, I'm more generous." Higashino showed a harmless smile.
Regarding Tohsaka Tokiomi's punishment, Higashino Kou had already asked Emiya Kiritsugu to complete it, and Tohsaka Tokiomi would never have imagined that Emiya Kiritsugu, who deposed himself, was instructed by Higashino Kou.
Tohsaka Tokiomi's face obviously relaxed a lot, he turned his head to look at Tohsaka Aoi who was standing quietly at the side, and said with a smile:
"Please serve the guests good tea."
After Tosaka Tokiomi finished speaking, he looked at Higashino Kou and asked:
"Coffee or tea?"
"Black tea." Higashino replied in seconds.
Aoi Tohsaka turned and walked into the kitchen, and began to prepare tea.
dong dong dong-
Subtle footsteps sounded, as if someone was walking in the corridor on the second floor.
Higashino squinted, and found that at the end of the corridor on the second floor, behind the wall, two small heads poked out, one of them was tied with black double ponytails, and the other had long purple hair.
The two little girls watched the living room quietly, as if they were eavesdropping on the conversation between Higashino Kanao and Tohsaka Tokiomi.
And Tohsaka Tokiomi didn't seem to hear anything, his eyes were cloudy and dim, as if they were covered with a layer of dust.
Can't even find this little trick?It's really ironic... Thinking of Tohsaka Tokiomi's high spirits, Higashino Kou shook his head in his heart.
After a while, Aoi Tohsaka came over with two cups of hot black tea, one was placed in front of Higashino Kanou, and the other was placed in front of Tohsaka Tokiomi.
Higashino took the antique teacup to his mouth, sniffed the aroma of black tea lightly, and then put the teacup back on the table.
The taste is very fragrant, but it is a bit hot... Dong Yezao commented in his heart.
"Assassin, what is the purpose of your visit to me this time?" Tokiomi Tohsaka held the teacup in both hands, with a slightly disturbed tone.
"Two things."
Higashino held up two fingers.
"The first thing is to inquire with you about one thing. I heard that the Clock Tower stole away the Holy Grail of Fuyuki City. The current Lord Marshal of Magic, Bathomelo Lorelei, even talked to you. I think Know all about these."
Tohsaka Tokiomi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and calmly wiped the sweat from his forehead. He originally thought that Higashino Soko's visit this time was to seek revenge. If it was just to inquire about news, it would be a lucky thing.
"I will tell you everything I know, and I hope this information can bring about a reconciliation between you and me."
Tohsaka Tokiomi nodded seriously, then hesitated for a moment, then slowly said:
"After the Holy Grail War ended, due to the great impact of the ceremony, and the monarch El-Meiro was seriously injured and returned, the Clock Tower specially sent people from the Law Department to Fuyuki City to investigate and redefine the level of the Holy Grail War."
"I didn't want to tell the truth about the Holy Grail War, because the Holy Grail War is the long-cherished wish of our Tohsaka family, Matou family, and Einzbern family. If we rashly expose the ceremony, it will attract many prying eyes."
"But I lost even the magic way, and I couldn't hide any secrets from the law and politics department. Almost in an instant, my soul was controlled by the law and politics department. Everything I knew was tortured. "
Tohsaka Tokiomi couldn't help covering his face with one hand, an extremely humiliated expression appeared on his face.
"Then the Law and Political Science Department knew that the Great Holy Grail is a wishing machine that can open the hole to the root and realize most of the world's wishes. They redefined the Holy Grail War as a top-level ceremony capable of destroying the world, and they had a wish for the Holy Grail. "
"Shortly after the people from the Law and Political Section left, Lord Barthomello brought a group of people over. They wanted me to sign an agreement, give up the Great Holy Grail, and provide them with all the ceremonial materials related to the Holy Grail War. As a reward , They promised to give us a place in the Tohsaka family in the next Holy Grail War, and gave my daughter Tohsaka Rin a qualification to enter the clock tower, and promised that Rin would worship under Master Gem Weng to learn magic."
"Even Sakura, Lord Bathermelo is willing to share a magic engraving of the collateral family, so that Sakura can become a member of the Barthemero family faction."
"I really can't refuse such a condition."
Tohsaka Tokiomi smiled bitterly, his expression was not too ugly, and even a little joyful.
Is it really too much... The corners of Dong Yezuo's mouth twitched, and he complained silently in his heart.
For a traditional magician, the future of the offspring in the way of magic is very important. The reward promised by the clock tower is insignificant in the eyes of Higashino Kou, but it is already a great benefit for Tohsaka Tokiomi.
"Then what? What is the Clock Tower going to do with the Great Holy Grail?" Higashino asked, sipping his black tea.
"I don't know the details, but I just heard from Lord Barthelmelo that they will be holding a Holy Grail War in another place. The next Holy Grail War will not last for more than fifteen years. The number of participants will not exceed [-] years. , as well as the Einzbern family, and the remaining places will be divided among the monarchs of the clock tower."
"However, the major monarchs disagreed on the content of the wish. Lord Bathermelo hopes to slow down the passage of mystery and continue the magic way by making a wish with the Holy Grail. Lord Animsfia has other wishes, specifically The content is beyond my knowledge.”
"That's all I know."
Tohsaka Tokiomi spoke in one breath, and took a sip of black tea to moisten his dry mouth.
Dong Yezao tapped the armrest with his index finger, making a rhythmic sound, and fell into a state of thinking.
I didn't expect that my purification of the Great Holy Grail would cause this series of accidents. In the end, the Fifth Holy Grail War would still start someday ten years later.
I'm not interested in the Fifth Holy Grail War. If the Clock Tower just wants to achieve the wish of the continuation of the magic way through the Holy Grail War, then I don't need to go to this muddy water, but I'm afraid that the old director Maris Billy will summon Solomon This shit, after winning the Holy Grail War, made a wish for wealth, ran to Antarctica to establish Chaldea, and then it was a story of the burning of humanity...
Do you want to participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War and stop the old director Maris Billy?
First of all, it will be very difficult to stop it. Right now, Higashino Zou doesn’t know if he can beat Solomon, who is a bad guy. There is no chance to summon Solomon.
The second is that Renri Burn has little effect on Higashino Kou. Gaitia can burn human history, but can also burn [Genyuanshi]?
Higashinozo believes that his wife will protect him at critical times, so that his family can safely survive the human burn, and just wait for Fujimaru Tachika to save the world.
But to be on the safe side, at that time, it is better to invest in Chaldea. As a shareholder, it is good to move the family to Chaldea before the human rights are burned.
The last and most important thing is that with the urine of the system, at that time, a task will be issued to let him intervene in the process of human restoration. Can Higashino Zou transcend the world, become an existence beyond the Sage of the Six Paths, and find the way back to the world of Hokage? It seems that human reason has been burned.
Missing this human power burn, Higashino Zuo didn't know how many years it would take to save enough boxes and improve his strength, so the occurrence of human power burn was what Higashino Zuo was happy to see.
Forget about the old director, even if he loses the Holy Grail War, he will be funded to build Chaldea... As for the fifth Holy Grail War, you can go and have a look, and earn a few more boxes ... Higashino made a preliminary decision in his heart.
Higashino knows that he is a very contemptuous person, in order to survive, he even snatched Grey's holy gun, which is enough to show his low moral value.
For Higashino, his family is always the first, and his strength is the second. In order to become stronger, even if he has the ability to stop it, he still chooses to let the burning of human rights happen, as long as the burned seven billion It's fine if there is no one he cares about.
What Higashino can do is to keep getting stronger, and then defeat Getia, revise human history, and all the dead people will be resurrected at that time. This is also the "good" side of Higashino.
"Sorry, I was distracted and thinking about something."
Realizing that he had been thinking for a long time, Higashino Kou returned Tohsaka Tokiomi with an apologetic smile.
"Assassin, can I take the liberty to ask a question?" Tokiomi Tohsaka asked cautiously, and then hastily added: "If you don't want to answer, then don't say it."
"Ask." Higashino reached out his hand to signal that he is in a pretty good mood now.
"You inquired about the Holy Grail War, do you want to participate in the fifth Holy Grail War?" Tosaka Tokiomi asked hesitantly.
"I have this idea at the moment." Dong Yezao nodded slightly.
"As the winner of the Fourth Holy Grail War, why do you still participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War? Do you still have wishes that need to be fulfilled by the Holy Grail?"
How should this be answered?I can't tell you that I just want to open a few boxes and earn some extra money... Higashino hesitated for a while, then seemed to remember something, his eyes lit up, and the corner of his mouth raised a smile and said:
"I'm not interested in the Holy Grail, I long for a worthy opponent."
"Death is like the wind, always with me."
"The three most important things in life are glory, death, and a hangover."
