The Endurance Contest-Rin or Sakura? / Money Really Was So Easy to Make

"What--!"

The shadow's master Matou Sakura, was greatly surprised.

It's understandable that they would have such a surprised expression; giants are the embodiment of shadows, and their attacks are comparable to a Servant's Noble Phantasm.

Tohsaka Rin is to Attack on Titan what a firefly is to the moon.

However, these powerful giants were all wiped out in a single blow.

Matou Sakura cannot accept this, nor can she accept it.

Once accepted, doesn't that mean --

"How is that possible!"

Seeing her sister charging towards her, Matou Sakura quickly commanded the remaining Titans to launch an attack.

"How annoying!"

The Jewel Sword gleamed, its originally colorless blade radiating a seven-colored glow, and its unparalleled magical power was unleashed under Tohsaka Rin's control!

The Great Void was instantly illuminated by dazzling golden light!

"Cherry!"

Tohsaka Rin had moved in front of Matou Sakura, landed a friendly punch on her sister's cheek.

"Liar—how could that be!"

The girl in black covered the red mark on her face, staring at her older sister in astonishment.

At this Matou Sakura's mentality had completely collapsed, and she had lost all the composure she had when the battle began.

I thought I had suffered for more than ten years in the Matou Family, but now the ten-year period has finally come to an end. The Dragon King has returned to his throne, reigning supreme and slapping everyone in the face.

In the end, after all that fuss, I realized that the clown was actually myself.

If this were a novel told Matou Sakura's perspective, then the current scene would be like the protagonist, having overcome countless hardships, finally achieving great power and just about to show off.

As a result, the rich young master who had always been at odds with the protagonist suddenly unleashed his power and beat the protagonist up, resulting in the protagonist's attempt to show off backfiring and getting [beep--!].

In this situation, who but the Ninja Turtles could possibly endure it?!

Chapter 218: Which lasts longer, Rin or Sakura?

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!!"

As the girl murmured to herself, countless shadows rose up, far exceeding the number that had appeared moments before.

Whether these shadows sensed Matou Sakura's anxiety or perceived their own danger remains unknown.

After all, the Magecraft that Tohsaka Rin just cast had already exceeded one hundred million if calculated by the Magecraft himself.

Tohsaka Rin remained remarkably composed; she even had the leisure to joke with Sakura.

"Sakura, you're amazing. If anyone from the Clock Tower were here, they would definitely faint. This magical power is enough to keep an entire department running for over a hundred years."

What was meant to be the truth sounded incredibly ironic to Matou Sakura.

"Then what do you say, sister?!"

Matou Sakura said, her voice trembling with tears, "My magical power is thousands of times greater than my sister's. My shadow is something you alone cannot erase, but—why!!!"

This cry, which sounded like a woman's desperate plea to a mistress on the street, failed to shake Tohsaka Rin's resolve.

"It's simply a matter of strength determining the winner." Tohsaka Rin flicked her hair. "I can't break the curse. So I just use magic to neutralize it. Can't you tell just by looking?"

"Liar!"

Matou Sakura shouted and yelled without regard for anything else.

"Sister, you don't have that much magic! The light you were emitting just now... looked like Saber's Excalibur!"

"I see! So, my sister is using a limited-edition Mystic Code that can be activated even with a tiny amount of magic and can only destroy shadows, right?"

Tohsaka Rin looked at her younger sister as if she were an idiot, scratching her head in frustration.

"Sakura... what exactly did you learn in Magecraft? Didn't Matou Zouken teach you any common sense?"

"Don't treat people like idiots! Your attitude—"

Tohsaka Rin coldly stated, "This is neither a replica of Saber's Noble Phantasm, nor is it some kind of Mystic Code specifically designed to annihilate Shadows. Sakura, this is the highest masterpiece of family Magecraft, passed down through generations of the Tohsaka family — the Jewel Sword!"

"Who would understand this!"

Matou Sakura's classic answer made Tohsaka Rin feel like an idiot.

Of course, what she found most intolerable was that even though Sakura had been adopted by the Matou Family, she was still from the Tohsaka family, yet she didn't even know about the Jewel Sword that symbolized the family's heritage!!!

"Heh, a mere two-hundred-year-old family line, and they're acting all high and mighty."

Looking up at Tohsaka Rin's furious expression on the screen, Azu felt nothing; she even felt a little amused.

The most important thing for Mage Families is its heritage. The longer the heritage lasts, the longer the family can explore the path of Magecraft and the further they can go.

Although influenced by Shinji Matou's works, Azu has been gradually changing her view of focusing solely on family lineage, she still feels proud of her long-standing family.

So when Tohsaka Rin flaunted the Tohsaka family's legacy on screen, Azu felt a little resentful.

Being able to promote one's family on such a platform is something every Magecraft dreams of.

Putting aside other things, if new Magecraft want to become apprentices in the future, and the Tohsaka family and other lesser-known but historically significant families are presented to them, those new Magecraft are very likely to choose the Tohsaka family, whose name is more familiar.

This is the benefit of advertising.

[A mere 200-year-old family... what's so great about that? You can only brag about it because of Mr. Matou!]

Azu knew very well that Shinji Matou had Tohsaka Rin flaunt her family's 200-year heritage to tell all Magecraft not to be bound by their own family's history, but to be proud of their family.

But----

"I'm still so angry!"

Azu sighed softly. Her only consolation was that not only herself, but also all the Mage Families she was familiar with, including the Aozaki Family, were not mentioned by Shinji Matou.

"I wish Mr. Matou could mention my family. Just a little bit... just a tiny bit."

Azu suddenly thought of something.

"The Kuzunoha Group is a Britain Magecraft company, so if we invest in Mr. Matou's production team under the guise of sponsorship, I wonder if we can get the same treatment as the Tohsaka family?"

However, securing sponsorship needs careful consideration; after all, it wouldn't be good to anger that stubborn old man Aozaki Public.

"I wonder what that old man's reaction was after watching HF. Maybe I should ask Aoko about it when I get the chance."

Azu looked up at her sisters tearing each other apart, she found herself missing her close (and sometimes antagonistic) best friend.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

On the screen, the Jewel Sword continued to shine.

Those who protected Matou Sakura retreated one after another before this radiance, which resembled the sword of victory.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this Jewel Sword is a flawed Projection of Shirou Emiya with Illya's help; it's the kind of flawed product that Jewel Master Human Order wouldn't even bother with.

However, this is, after all, Magecraft Mystic Code belonging to the Second Magic of magic. Even if it is flawed, it does not use any kind of Magecraft, but rather a spell within the realm of True Magic.

Tohsaka Rin knew very well that the Jewel Sword in her hand was a defective product, with a limited amount of magic power that could be used at a time, and it would break if the limit was exceeded.

But her rival Matou Sakura, faces the same problem.

Perhaps the shadow-possessed Matou Sakura possesses immeasurable magical power, but the magical power that Matou Sakura vessel, can release at one time is limited.

Just like a dam in a reservoir, no matter how powerful the dam is, it has a limit to the amount of water it can release.

Unfortunately, Matou Sakura's maximum magical power release in a single instance did not reach the maximum power limit of Tohsaka Rin's Jewel Sword.

"A protracted war is to my advantage!"

Tohsaka Rin flashed a confident smile.

Matou Sakura's magical power, however abundant, is not limitless, but she can draw upon it from the Great Void of countless Parallel world.

In other words, even if Matou Sakura could use all the magic power within the Great Void, it wouldn't matter, because behind Tohsaka Rin stood countless Great Void.

Furthermore, Tohsaka Rin always uses slightly more magic power than Matou Sakura to destroy the Great Void that serves as the altar for the Great Holy Grail.

Therefore, if the battle continues like this, it will be Matou Sakura who is defeated.

Because the cave won't be able to hold on and will collapse before Matou Sakura runs out of mana!

"Ha ha--"

Her shoulders heaved violently, her breathing became increasingly painful, and she gradually felt powerless as she stared at her composed Matou Sakura sister.

"Sakura, this is all the power you've gained. Shouldn't you be a little more clear-headed? Your restless mind..."

"Stop joking! It's not fair! It's all my sister's! Why!"

Matou Sakura launched another offensive and defensive battle, but the result remained the same.

Seeing that he could not achieve victory for a long time, Matou's long-accumulated frustration, along with his resentment towards his only blood relative, all erupted.

"Ah..."

Unforgivable!

I will never forgive!

I will never forgive that woman, my sister!

"Enough--!"

Matou Sakura screamed hysterically, and the nerve that had been taut for so long finally snapped.

"I don't want to hear it! I don't want to hear your excuses! Sister, you have no idea what I've been through! That's why you can be so high and mighty and give orders! I'm going to make you feel the pain I've endured for the past 11 years!"

The black-clad girl roared, and countless black ribbons flew out from her body, surging towards Tohsaka Rin from all directions.

Tohsaka Rin looked at her younger sister with a hint of sadness.

She had originally planned to stall until Shirou Emiya arrived, but now it seemed she couldn't hold out any longer.

Wrong.

This was originally a problem between sisters, and the idea of handing it over to outsiders was a mistake in itself.

So--

"Cherry."

He called out his sister's name casually, as if it were a simple "good morning."

Moment.

Tohsaka Rin made the decisive move that determined the outcome of the match.

Chapter 219 Money is so easy to make

"Cherry."

Tohsaka Rin called out her sister's name and threw out her most important weapon— the Jewel Sword!

The crystallization of the Second Magic was thrown out by Tohsaka Rin like a hand grenade.

And its function is similar to that of a hand grenade.

"Welt Ende."

Accompanied by Tohsaka Rin's incantation, the Great Void was enveloped in a vast expanse of light.

The shattered Jewel Sword exploded, annihilating all the shadows.

Then, Tohsaka Rin started running.

He ran straight towards his younger sister.

No matter how much power she gains, Matou Sakura is a complete novice when it comes to combat.

In such a dangerous situation, instead of trying to escape, she stood there foolishly even after losing sight of him.

However, this did not surprise Tohsaka Rin, as Matou Sakura was a body that Matou Zouken had prepared for herself.

What need does a mere puppet have for combat awareness?! Once I successfully board the plane, won't I have everything I need?!
