The Divine Power of Comprehensive Comics

Tohsaka Aoi's gray eyes turned to one side as if she were escaping from something.

A bad premonition emerged in his heart, and Yanye tried his best to think in a good direction.

"What the hell is going on...?"

"Sakura, she is no longer my daughter, nor is she Rin's sister..."

With a gloomy expression on her face, Tohsaka Aoi's voice became a little hoarse.

"That child went to Matou's house."

Hearing the two familiar words "Matou", Matou Kariya felt a chill coming from his back, and his heart seemed to be grasped by invisible hands, and even his breathing became tight.

"How is it possible...what on earth is going on, Aoi!"

"Do you even need to ask? Especially for you, Kariya-kun."

Rin's mother, Tohsaka Aoi, had a knowing look in her eyes and a cold tone to suppress her emotions. She just spoke calmly, keeping her gaze on the scenery aside, and never looked at Kariya's face from beginning to end.

"Matō longs for a child who inherits the magician's blood. Your words should be the clearest reason why, right?"

"Why, would you... agree?"

"I agree to the long-standing request of my ally, the Matou family. That is a matter decided by the head of the Tohsaka family. I have no room to express my opinions..."

For that reason, mother and child, elder sister and younger sister were forced to separate.

Of course it is emotionally unacceptable, but Tohsaka Aoi and the young Rin also understand that this is a fact that they have to accept.

That was all the reason for being born a magician, and Kariya clearly taught him the cruelty of this fate.

"…Even so, does it not matter?"

To Kariya's unprecedented question, Tohsaka Aoi just answered with a feeble wry smile.

"Since the day I decided to marry the Tosaka family, since the day I decided to marry a magician, I have figured out that as a clan that has inherited the blood of magic, it is wrong to pursue the happiness of an ordinary family."

"..."

Then facing Kariya, who seemed to have something to say, the magician's wife showed a gentle but firm expression of rejection.

"This is a matter between Tohsaka and Matou, and has nothing to do with you who have left the magic world."

Kariya remained motionless, feeling like he had turned into a potted plant in the park.

One is that the heart becomes cold and the shrinking feeling of weakness and isolation spreads throughout the body.

Ever since she was a girl, she has been a wife and the mother of two children. Tohsaka Aoi's attitude towards Kariya has never changed.

My childhood sweetheart, who is three years older, is almost like a real sister, always treating Kariya gently, putting myself in his shoes, and treating him kindly without any worries.

This was the first time that I had clearly drawn a line with him from the beginning.

"If you meet Sakura, please treat her well."

Where Tohsaka Aoi looked, Rin was very cheerful and energetic, chasing and playing with several other children wholeheartedly, as if to drive away the sadness.

As if saying that Rin who was playing was the answer, and as if Kariya was speechless and choked next to the silent rejection, Tohsaka Aoi kept her mother's kind expression on her days off, just facing Kariya from the side.

Even so, it didn't escape Kariya's eyes————

The strong, calm, and determined Tohsaka Aoi.

Even so, she couldn't completely hide the tears that continued to form in the corners of her eyes...

"...Doesn't it matter even if this is the case?"

Looking at Tohsaka Aoi with his head lowered, Kariya asked without thinking. This was the first time he had said such harsh words in several years.

Inconspicuous, not in the way of anyone...I have always lived with this policy in mind.

Anger and hatred were left behind by Matou Kariya in this silent town deep in the mountains.

For Kariya, who had abandoned his hometown, there was nothing worth caring about or being rigid about. No matter how despicable or ugly things were, they were incomparable to everything he hated in this land.

Questions like today also happened eight years ago.

At that time, Kariya used the same voice and the same momentum to question the same woman, the night before this older childhood sweetheart was about to marry into the Tohsaka family.

At that time, he chose to escape and could not do anything.

However, Kariya could never forgive himself for making the same mistake twice. In order to punish himself, he returned to this place where he had said goodbye.

There must be a way to make amends there, so that this time, he can make the right choice and save whatever he can.

…

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, I stopped in front of a towering Western-style mansion.

Looking at the scenery of his hometown that he thought he would never see again, Matou Kariya quickened his pace.

After ten years, Matou Kariya once again came to the door of his house.

Countless times, I wanted to return to Dongmu Town, but I had never crossed the river and stepped into this small town deep in the mountains.

I think this is the reason why we have been apart for ten years.

Unlike emerging cities that are constantly undergoing development and construction, here it is as if time has stopped and nothing has changed.

The town was as quiet as Matou Kariya's memory. When he slowed down and looked around, those memories that he thought he would never recall again if he deliberately forgot them appeared in his mind uncontrollably.

Deliberately ignoring this inexplicable feeling that is of no benefit to you,

Looking at the door in front of him that seemed to have remained unchanged even after so many years, Matou Kariya took a deep breath and sucked the air that had become a little cold due to the approaching night into his lungs.

The moment of coldness made his brain become a little clearer at this moment.

"Old thing...I'm back again..."

With this murmur, Matou Kariya stretched out his hand and knocked on the door.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After knocking on the wooden door three times in succession, there was no sound from inside.

"After so many years, has this old guy's reaction become slower?"
