Capítulo 233: Frustated plans
What's going on?
That was what Sakura asked herself in these moments.
Today was an important day in her life, although that did not mean that it was a happy day.
Her father... well, he was no longer her father. Tokiomi Tohsaka had explained to her that she was no longer part of the family, and was going to give her to the Matou. There, they were going to raise her as their descendant and teach her magic.
But... she didn't want to learn magic if it meant abandoning her family. But, neither her mother nor her sister had defended her or expressed their rejection of the decision Tokiomi had made.
Her entire family had abandoned her.
Sakura had been mentalized of that. Now, she had to start a new life in an unknown house.
Tokiomi had accompanied her to the Matou's house, and she was just a step away from the old Zouken.
However...
Why was she in a totally different house?
And... Why was there a girl doing kitsune cosplay in front of her?
"Master, good job."
Sakura directed her attention to the blonde girl, which looked strangely innocent to the eyes of the innocent Sakura.
"You are a very pretty girl-Nyaa."
The girl that seemed to be doing cat cosplay bent down in front of Sakura. It was inevitable that the vision of the small Tohsaka went to that pair of mountains that bounced for the own movement of the girl. She caressed the head of Sakura with smoothness while she gave her a kind smile.
That smile inevitably relaxed immediately the anxiety that Sakura was feeling, filling her with heat inside.
Any person would feel a minimum of stress if they are suddenly kidnapped by strangers. The situation is even more complicated for a five-year-old girl like Sakura.
"Still, I thought that everything was going to be more complicated. Rescuing the girl has been surprisingly easy.
The one that had spoken was the third of the girls. She had been the one that had taken Sakura and had taken her to this house.
The three were very different girls, being that the first one was a girl with western features, the girl doing cosplay was obviously Japanese, and the third one seemed a girl coming from the Middle East.
"Old Zouken didn't expect this attack, so he let us go easily. I also intimidated him quite a bit, revealing his weakness must have been a shock to him."
The one who had spoken now was the only boy present. For the form that he spoke, and seeing how the girls surrounded him unconsciously, Sakura could suppose that he was the leader. It was him who had faced the old Zouken while the other girl kidnapped her.
"One should not underestimate the Zouken, since he is one of the few alive humans that can face a Servant. No, he is the only one who has the power to do so at this time, or so I believe.
Aoko Aozaki should be the other human able to face a Servant and win, but Drako did not know if she had already acquired the fifth magic or not. And Zelretch is not directly human.
Still, Drako had no intention of getting involved with Blue or Zelretch at this point. They were too much trouble, especially the vampire.
While Blue is troubled by the fact that he can be a tough competitor in battle, Zelretch is troubled by... by being Zelretch.
And Zouken is also a troubled opponent. Not only is he the most knowledgeable person about the Holy Grail, having been one of its three creators, but he is literally immortal.
It has been centuries since Zouken ceased to be human, becoming a Wraith while hiding it through the family records. His worms are responsible for giving him a physical body, so he will not "die" until they all disappear.
Everything would be much less problematic if Drako had an attack that could damage a disembodied soul, but not even the touki can do that since he attacks the lifeforce and a Wraith lacks that.
(AN: I am most likely wrong about this, I will investigate further).
"By the way," the boy approached Sakura and lowered his head to her height. "My name is Drako, delighted of knowing you.
"I am Zoe."
"Mordred."
"And I am Kuroka-nyaa!"
All presented themselves in front of Sakura, giving beginning to a new stage in her life.
...
"Shit, shit, shit."
The old Matou patriarch, Zouken, was walking around his training room.
Everything he had planned was going perfectly.
Everything.
Once Sakura arrived at the house of the Matou, Zouken was going to train her so that she became an excellent magician for the family. Their worms were going to prepare her to be an excellent mother for the next head of family, and this way the Matou were going to retake their line of magicians.
But now, all those plans had gone to waste.
Zouken had no plans to participate in this war, as he had no trained descendants. However, it seemed that now there was going to be a change of plan.
The Matou were going to disappear if Zouken didn't do something. It seemed that he was going to have to participate in this war himself, something he had never planned to do.
"Damn you!"
Zouken could only curse the man who had stolen from the Tohsaka girl.
Thinking coldly, Zouken could say that this boy was not human. He had an aura that Zouken had never felt.
But no matter what, Zouken was going to accomplish his goals no matter what, as he had always done.
This chapter is not edited, I'm going to do that tomorrow. But here is the chapter anyways.
