I, Fu Yuan, Will Destroy the Holy Grail War

Tohsaka Rin, adopting a prim and proper lady's demeanor, shot a subtle glare at Fu Yuan. He was the scoundrel who had nearly exposed her lazy, slovenly side to her father.

If Tohsaka Tokiomi saw her in such a state just now, he would surely lecture her.

Tohsaka Tokiomi glanced at Matou Sakura, then looked at Tohsaka Rin, who was sitting upright on the sofa, with surprise. "Rin, you're here too?"

"Because I was saying goodbye to Brother Fu Yuan, that's why I'm here," Tohsaka Rin replied.

That's right, Tohsaka Rin had come to see Fu Yuan this time to bid him farewell, as she was about to move to Zenjo City with her mother, Tohma Aoi.

"Let's go. We'll leave the living room to the two sisters and talk in the study," Fu Yuan said to Tohsaka Tokiomi.

"No, let's talk here. Because what I'm about to say concerns Little Sakura," Tohsaka Tokiomi said to Matou Sakura.

"Alright then." Fu Yuan shrugged and took the main seat on the living room sofa. Tohsaka Tokiomi sat on the sofa opposite him, while Tohsaka Rin and Matou Sakura sat on the sofa beside Tohsaka Tokiomi.

After Tohsaka Tokiomi sat down, Matou Sakura stood up and walked over to Fu Yuan's side in a few steps.

It seemed that Tohsaka Tokiomi, her biological father, had broken her heart. Now, Matou Sakura didn't even want to sit with him.

Fu Yuan looked at Matou Sakura, who had walked over to him, and helplessly shook his head. He then pulled the girl, who didn't want to be near Tohsaka Tokiomi, closer, inviting her to sit with him on the sofa.

Seeing Matou Sakura sitting beside Fu Yuan, Tohsaka Tokiomi let out a bitter smile.

"Please, go ahead. What do you want to tell me and Little Sakura now?" Fu Yuan, as the host, spoke first.

"It's like this. I just visited the Matou family and confirmed what you told me earlier. After some verification, I believe what you said was true. Therefore, I will retract the decision to give Little Sakura away to the Matou family," Tohsaka Tokiomi announced.

Fu Yuan nodded slightly and looked at Tohsaka Tokiomi with approval. "I'm glad you could believe what I said and abandon the decision to give Little Sakura to the Matou family."

This Tohsaka Tokiomi wasn't too bad. He knew when to pull back from the brink. Now Fu Yuan didn't need to beat him up to knock some sense into him.

Chapter 17: Come, Learn Great Void Sword Qi From Me!

Tohsaka Rin, listening from the side, was delighted by the conversation between Tohsaka Tokiomi and Fu Yuan. She thought that if Tohsaka Tokiomi retracted his decision to give Matou Sakura away, her sister wouldn't have to leave the Tohsaka family.

However, Tohsaka Rin's joy was premature.

"I plan to send Little Sakura to Finland."

Tohsaka Tokiomi looked at Matou Sakura, who was sitting beside Fu Yuan, and said slowly, "The 'Edelfelt family' in Northern Europe's Finland, a prominent magecraft family, are distant relatives of my Tohsaka family. So, I plan to send Little Sakura to our distant relatives there."

"...I don't want to," Matou Sakura, clutching Fu Yuan's sleeve, voiced her small protest.

This was the first time Matou Sakura had defied her stern father. She no longer wanted to be given away to another family by Tohsaka Tokiomi.

"Little Sakura, don't rush to object." Fu Yuan soothed Matou Sakura, who was sitting beside him, and then said to Tohsaka Tokiomi, "Don't you have any way to let Rin and Little Sakura stay in the Tohsaka family together?"

"Alas, that's impossible," Tohsaka Tokiomi shook his head, seemingly troubled. "With your profound magecraft attainments, you must know how troublesome it is to have two excellent heirs in a family."

"Because the family's Magic Crest can only be inherited by one person, the other will inevitably be relegated to mediocrity. And my Tohsaka family cannot properly care for two children with excellent Mage Circuits, so we can only choose to give Little Sakura to another magecraft family."

Therefore, Tohsaka Tokiomi chose to keep his elder daughter, Tohsaka Rin, because Rin's elemental affinity was 'Fire' among the five great elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, and Void. 'Fire' could better utilize his Tohsaka family's Jewel Magic.

As for Matou Sakura, whose elemental affinity was 'Void', she had to be given to another magecraft family to receive their protection and training.

Tohsaka Rin mustered her courage and spoke up, "If Father insists on giving Little Sakura away, why not give her to Brother Fu Yuan?"

Tohsaka Tokiomi and Fu Yuan were both taken aback by Tohsaka Rin's sudden suggestion, while Matou Sakura's face lit up with joy.

If she were to be adopted into Fu Yuan's family, she, Matou Sakura, would be willing!

"So, Father, wouldn't it be good to let Little Sakura be taught by Brother Fu Yuan? He's very powerful."

Indeed, Tohsaka Tokiomi had glimpsed some of Fu Yuan's strength from the recorded video. The Lightning Marks had instantly annihilated tens of thousands of Matou Zouken's Magic Crest Worms.

That was a terrifying power that surpassed Grand Magecraft.

Tohsaka Tokiomi wasn't confident he could eliminate so many Magic Crest Worms in Matou Zouken's Magecraft Workshop himself.

So, was giving Matou Sakura to Fu Yuan a good choice?

"Rin, I don't think that's a very good suggestion," Tohsaka Tokiomi said, shaking his head and rejecting Tohsaka Rin's proposal.

Tohsaka Tokiomi truly didn't believe it was a good decision.

First, Fu Yuan was very mysterious. Tohsaka Tokiomi didn't even know which magecraft family he belonged to.

Second, Tohsaka Tokiomi not only didn't know the mysterious Fu Yuan but also didn't know the magecraft family behind him. What if something like what happened with Matou Zouken occurred again?

Therefore, Tohsaka Tokiomi still decided to send Matou Sakura to the Edelfelt family in Northern Europe, Finland.

...Fu Yuan also didn't want to adopt Matou Sakura.

Actually, it wasn't that Fu Yuan didn't want to, but rather that he couldn't.

Because Fu Yuan didn't understand the magecraft of this world at all!

How could he teach Matou Sakura?

Was Fu Yuan going to teach Matou Sakura how to cultivate Great Void Sword Qi?

What a great idea!

Although Fu Yuan thought of it, he couldn't do it. This was because Fu Yuan had mastered his Great Void Sword Qi through the Valkyrie - Swift Feather character template. Therefore, he only knew how to cultivate it, not how to teach it.

So, for Matou Sakura to receive the protection of a magecraft family and for a magus to teach her how to master magecraft, Tohsaka Tokiomi's proposal was the most suitable for Matou Sakura.

However, Matou Sakura's face was full of resistance. She absolutely did not want to be sent to another family by Tohsaka Tokiomi again.

Especially after hearing Tohsaka Rin's suggestion to 'be adopted into the Fu Yuan family,' Matou Sakura became even more unwilling to be adopted by any other family.

If she could, she wanted to stay behind Brother Fu Yuan forever.

Fu Yuan looked at Matou Sakura, who had a face full of resistance and was tightly gripping the corner of his clothes. He first patted her little head to comfort the young girl, then Fu Yuan turned to Tohsaka Tokiomi.

"Are you sure the distant relative's family you mentioned won't treat Little Sakura like the Matou family did?"

"Of course, I am very aware of the Edelfelt family's situation. It will absolutely not happen again like it did with the Matou family," Tohsaka Tokiomi said with a serious expression.

As a transmigrator, Fu Yuan also knew about the Edelfelt magecraft family. Wasn't it Luvia Edelfelt's magecraft family, the one with the golden drills?

That family was similar to the Tohsaka family; the magecraft they used was related to jewels, so there was indeed no need to worry about Matou Sakura being treated like she was by the Matou family after being adopted there.

Fu Yuan looked at Tohsaka Tokiomi's serious expression, then he turned his head to look at Matou Sakura sitting beside him. "Little Sakura, what do you think?"

"Brother, are you planning to abandon me too?" Matou Sakura said tearfully to Fu Yuan.
