The journey of dragon transformation starting from Demon Slayer

Chapter 831 『Tatsumi's Self-Introduction』『Tokiomi's Enlightenment and Doubt』

Although the other person is a man, the word beautiful does not seem out of place when used to describe him.

Paired with that pair of beautiful blue eyes, it looks even more suitable.

Tokiomi's performance could be described as extremely humble. If he had doubts about Tatsumi's attitude before, now he was truly willing to treat the noble heroic spirit in front of him with the utmost courtesy, without the slightest hesitation.

As the heir of a noble bloodline, Tokiomi believed that he understood what it meant to be a "superior person" better than anyone else.

The person in front of me is even more noble than myself.

In just the moment of seeing each other, Tokiomi came to this conclusion in his heart.

He believed that such a being would not bother to deceive Aoi, and his attitude towards Sakura should also be sincere.

Tokiomi's philosophy was to show respect for noble things, and he had always adhered to this principle from childhood to adulthood.

Tokiomi bent his waist like this, trying his best to be polite without appearing overly humble.

"Tousaka Tokiomi, huh? I understand..." As he said that, Tatsumi looked at Sakura in his arms, gave the little girl a gentle smile, and then gently put her down from his arms.

Sakura did not rush into her mother's arms immediately. This was not only because of her father's warning, but also because she felt that her fate might be changed again tonight.

Sakura was afraid. On the one hand, she didn't want to be abandoned by Tatsumi, but on the other hand, she wanted to return to her parents.

Tatsumi asked Sakura to sit on the chair in the church, and then used a little magic on her, making her fall asleep.

"Sakura, take a nap first..."

Gently stroking the little girl's hair, Tatsumi turned around and signaled with his eyes that Aoi should take care of her.

Seeing this, Aoi nodded slightly, came and sat down next to Sakura, and let her lie on her legs and fall asleep slowly.

Aoi couldn't help but reveal a loving expression. Tatsumi turned around and said to Tohsaka Tokiomi: "Raise your head, Tohsaka Tokiomi!"

"The first condition for dialogue is equality. How can you have a dialogue if you keep your head down like this..."

"Yes, I didn't think it through..."

Tokiomi slowly raised his head.

As a result, before he could fully take in Tatsumi's face, these words rang in his ears.

"But I never expected that even if I came to another world, the fact that I would have to deal with nobles would not change..."

Tokiomi showed a stunned expression, and he couldn't help but muttered as he just raised his head: "Other worlds!! What do you mean??"

Tatsumi responded slowly: "'Foreigner', something from outside the planet, the universe, the truth, the pantheon, and legends!"

As he spoke, Tatsumi took a few steps forward, looking at the scenery inside the church, and said, "In modern terms, I am an alien, and I am from another universe. You should understand what I mean, right?"

"this..."

Tokiomi's heart was filled with shock, and even Aoi and Father Risei beside him couldn't help but show surprised expressions.

Tatsumi was still talking to himself.

"I was summoned this time because of something..."

"Well, although I was summoned, I actually came here on my own. I just borrowed your Holy Grail system and came to this world according to normal procedures..."

"Although we can descend directly, I think this method is more suitable for the scenery..."

Tatsumi finished this sentence in a half-joking tone.

Tokiomi lowered his head again and said respectfully, "I am truly terrified... Then may I ask how we should address you?"

"Is that a formal title? Then let me introduce myself first..." Tatsumi murmured, then his face straightened and he said proudly: "My name is Tatsumi, and I am the ruler of four worlds at the same time!"

At this moment, Tatsumi's temperament changed, even to the point where it made people want to kneel down on the spot.

"I am both a human and a dragon, a king and a god!"

As Tatsumi finished speaking, the reactions of the people present were surprisingly consistent.

"Varied----!!"

"You mean God?!"

"Oh my god..."

His proud voice echoed in the church. At that moment, the church was so quiet that only Sakura's even breathing could be heard.

Tokiomi was stunned. These names did not sound strange to him.

It is not difficult for humans to understand, because Tōsaka Tokiomi, a magus, is himself a human.

But the next few words had already shaken Tōsaka Tokiomi's heart to its core.

Dragon - This term is widely mentioned in the world of magicians.

Dragons are fantasy species, the most powerful and noble among all fantasy species!

Throughout history, there are many heroic biographies and national legends that are closely related to the creature called dragon!

And to put it in a slightly more mercenary way.

No matter whether it is dragon fangs, dragon scales, dragon hearts, or anything else, they are all extremely rare and important materials, sought after but unavailable in the market. However, obtaining any one of them can allow a down-and-out magician to make a comeback.

Now that the Age of Gods has passed away from humanity, people can no longer witness the mysterious charm of this fantastic creature called dragon.

And even though there are only legends about dragons left in the world today, people are still fanatical about these powerful creatures!

Now let's talk about the king.

The one who is at the top of the human world, ruling the country and governing the people is the king!

There have been countless countries in human history, some large and some small, and wise kings or tyrants are not uncommon.

But the person in front of him is different. He is the emperor who rules four worlds at the same time!

Tokiomi could understand the terrifying weight of the words "four worlds".

Human beings now have sufficient understanding of the concept of planets. It is precisely because we know how big the universe is that we have a deep understanding of our own insignificance.

Humans today haven’t even explored the entire Earth, yet the being before us is the king that reigns over the world!

As a descendant of the nobility, Tokiomi no longer knew what words to use to describe the greatness of the person before him.

Surprise, shock, admiration... all these emotions are not enough to express in words...

As for the last god, it is even easier to understand. It is completely detached from the world and is an existence that people still cannot understand...

There was a fanatical emotion in Tokiomi's eyes, while Aoi covered her mouth in surprise, looking very beautiful and charming.

Kotomine Riki at the side had just opened his squinting eyes, with a variety of expressions showing suspicion, uneasiness, etc.

Tatsumi ignored everyone and continued to introduce himself.

"Five thousand years ago, I came to this world, but I didn't leave any legends behind. I only left an item as a gift to a goddess on this planet..."

"However, the item was not taken back to the divine realm by the goddess. Instead, it passed around for many years and finally came into the hands of your daughter..."

As he spoke, Tatsumi raised his hand and gathered a special wave of energy in his hand.

When Tokiomi saw this scene, his eyes widened, and he gasped and couldn't help muttering, "This is!!"

Under his gaze, a blue gem condensed in Tatsumi's hand. Seeing this, how could Shichen not understand.

The orb that Rin picked up and studied for nearly half a year was a precious treasure that Tatsumi gave to a goddess.

This treasure was later found by his daughter, but why...

Tokiomi pondered for a moment, then revealed a look of enlightenment.

Did Rin give the necklace away?

Yes, the reason why he was summoned by Sakura must be because his daughter secretly gave the necklace to Sakura without telling him.

At that time, he was unable to research anything useful, so he simply gave the necklace to Rin for safekeeping.

Tokiomi didn't know why, but he just thought it would be more appropriate to leave it to Rin, so he subconsciously made this move.

I remember that Sakura successfully shrunk the orb at that time. So, wouldn't it be more appropriate to give it to Sakura instead?

For Tōsaka Tokiomi, as a father, it doesn't really matter who the jewel is given to, after all, both are his lovely daughters.

However, out of guilt towards Sakura, it would be more appropriate to give it to Sakura. But for some reason, he accidentally gave the necklace to Rin.

Later, as the day of the Holy Grail War drew closer, he gradually forgot about the matter of the jade, and instead became troubled by Sakura's whereabouts.

After the Matou family requested to adopt an heir, he only did a little research and then safely handed his daughter over to this century-old "ally".

What happened next...

Thinking of this, Tokiomi had connected all the known clues together and successfully completed all the puzzle pieces that existed in his heart.

If Aoi's information is correct, and "Matou" has indeed fallen into the path of evil, then there is a fundamental reason why he was summoned.

Rin and Sakura are the treasures of the Tohsaka family, treasures that the Tohsaka family spent five generations to finally obtain.

When Tokiomi learned that his daughter was sent to the insect warehouse, he was furious. He couldn't imagine what the king's expression would be like when he learned that his treasure was thrown into the insect warehouse.

You have to know that it is a treasure precious enough to be given to the goddess. In many myths and legends, the treasures of the gods are not within the reach of lowly humans, so the appearance of treasures is often accompanied by bloody storms, causing misery in the human world.

So because of this, the corrupt magician of the Matou family, Matou Zouken, was killed by this master...

Thinking of this, Tokiomi shook his head in his heart.

No, that's not right, that's just a clone...

Matou Zouken successfully evaded the punishment of this adult by means of some unknown means!

When he thought of this, he felt a flame burning fiercely in his heart.

For Tōsaka Tokiomi, who upholds the noble doctrine of magic, he really does not want to see a magician stray from the right path and become corrupted.

Towards such a person, Tokiomi could only look down on him.

In Tokiomi's opinion, people have to be responsible for something.

Parents, children, family, society, magician...

Shouldering one's own responsibilities is the first requirement for being a human being.

Until now, Tokiomi has been on this path. He is extremely responsible in everything he does, not only as a son, but also as the student council president at school.

Even after marriage, Tokiomi tried his best to fulfill his responsibilities as a husband and never let his wife suffer.

However, as a father, Tokiomi has clearly realized his own negligence and believes that he should never send his daughter into the devil's den.

Once upon a time – Tokiomi had such a treasure, and wanted to entrust it to his two lovely daughters.

——However, he could not fulfill this wish and could not give this gift to his daughter.

I remember that when Tokiomi inherited the position of the head of the family, his father had repeatedly asked him whether he wanted to inherit the position of the head of the family.

Since this question was formally asked, it meant that Tokiomi had at least had the "room for choice".

According to his own will, Tousaka Tokiomi did not want to live up to his efforts throughout history, and spent half of his life in hardship, silently licking up the bitterness along the way. He turned all of it into his own self-esteem and took that step firmly.

He chose the path of magic and accepted the position of head of the family according to his own will, rather than being constrained by fate and passively taking this path.

He wanted to give this "freedom to choose" to his beloved daughters, but he never thought that their talents were so high that they were not allowed to make a choice.

If he had a choice, Tokiomi would definitely do everything he could to let his daughter live the life she wanted.

After all, as a father, he naturally has to fulfill his fatherly responsibilities.

Whether it is caring or protecting, these officials will do their best.

However, his daughter's excessive talent only highlighted his incompetence.

If he had a better talent and had a place in the Clock Tower and could protect his family, the result would definitely not be like this.

In the end, he had no choice but to give up his daughter and hand her over to an outsider.

After adopting Sakura, he had thought several times that he had relieved himself of the responsibility of being a father and was freed from it.

But is this really the case?

The more Tokiomi asked himself this question, the more depressed he felt.

Coming back to his senses from his memories, Tokiomi looked at Sakura who had fallen asleep beside him, and traces of sadness and pain could not help but emerge in his light blue eyes.

"It seems that you have thought a lot at this moment, Tousaka Tokiomi..."

Tatsumi's voice suddenly echoed in his ears. Tokiomi was silent for a second, then responded respectfully: "Yes, King..."

"I wonder if I have fulfilled my responsibilities as a father..."

"..."

Seeing Tokiomi's expression, Tatsumi said slowly: "It depends on the person's personal feelings. At least from my point of view, you have not fulfilled your father's responsibilities..."
