It was a brief encounter, but due to time constraints, Feng Jianxi quickly said goodbye and left.

Standing on the ramp, Matou Sakura watched Kazama Yu leave.

"cherry..."A gentle and steady call came to her ears.

She also has purple hair, but her long hair has already touched the ground. With a mask on her face, a tall woman in her twenties appeared next to Matou Sakura.

"Go back?"

Medusa asked. She could feel that her master's mood had become much happier. Before that, there was more of heavy pressure.

Medusa also looked in the direction where Feng Jianxi left. She understood that The meaning of youth to girls

"Go back, rider. Sakura nodded, and her smile gradually faded, turning into her usual quiet look.

The meeting place chosen by Kazama Xi was not far from the Matou family's mansion, and you could return home in a few minutes.

The rusty iron door was opened, Matou Sakura walked into the historic yet luxurious mansion.

There was a sneaky figure in the front courtyard of the house. She seemed startled when she heard the iron door behind her open.

"Brother."

Matou Sakura said hello neither humble nor overbearing.

"Ah, it’s Sakura...Are you still out so late?"

The only male of this generation of the Matou family, Matou Sakura's nominal brother, Matou Shinji touched his seaweed-like hair and responded with some embarrassment.

Matou Sakura knew very well that her nominal brother had bad conduct. She smelled the scent of female perfume on Matou Shinji's body. Although he was only a high school student, he had already learned how to find girls by virtue of his status as the young master of the Matou family. He also had several girlfriends in the school, just like his father. To put it bluntly, he is a scumbag

"Brother, I'm going back to my room first. You should also rest early."

Without showing any disgust or intimacy, after a plain and polite greeting, Sakura stepped into the mansion.

"You should also go to bed earlier..."

Shinji Matou, who returned home after playing until late at night, looked at Sakura Matou walking into the mansion with a fake smile. Then his face turned gloomy

"Tsk, what are you pretending to be?"

But immediately, Matou Shinji felt an incomparable coldness, which invaded his lower body. It seemed that there was a ghost around him, which made Matou Shinji look frightened on his face, and he did not dare to make any complaints.

Returning to her room, she put on white silk pajamas. Matou Sakura lay on the soft bed with her arms on her forehead. The dim light of the bedside lamp allowed her to see the flowers on the back of her hands that looked like cherry blossom petals. Three bright red tattoos

"rider..."

Matou Sakura murmured, and received an immediate response.

"I am here...cherry."

The curtains fluttered slightly, and Rider's figure appeared beside the bed.

"Rider, I must win this Holy Grail War"

"Um. Rider nodded lightly:"I will definitely dedicate victory to you, Sakura.""

"As long as I win this ritual, I can leave this hell according to the agreement with my grandfather."

"By the time...Rider, can you stay? The cherry blossoms in Fuyuki City are very beautiful, and we will all go see them together."

Medusa did not answer, because the girl had already fallen into a dream.

Compared to her usual sleep, the girl had a smile on her lips, perhaps because she was really happy today.

Medusa looked at the girl, her figure Slowly disappearing.

There is a magical communication between the servant and the master, which is a closer connection than physical contact.

This connection can even break away from the physical realm and intervene at the level of the soul, in the form of dreams. Method: The

Master can see the Servant's past and the deepest desires in his/her heart....Generally speaking this will not happen.

The main reason is that servants do not need to sleep, except in rare cases. For example, like Artoria, because Emiya Shirou is not qualified as the master, he needs to replenish his magic power through normal sleep.

As for Medusa, she has abilities related to dreams.

This ability comes from her Noble Phantasm, her cursed eyes.

Self-Sealing: Dark Temple (Breaker Gorgon) This Noble Phantasm was originally designed to seal the Demonic Eye, but it can also seal the hearts of others within the barrier.

By chance, Medusa touched Sakura's heart.

She saw the huge dark palace in Sakura's heart, a darkness that normal people would never have.

Abandoned by his parents as a child, he was forced to accept the painful magic practice of the Matou family.

Being different from ordinary people cannot integrate with the normal daily world, so he is lonely and painful.

This dark palace made Medusa feel sorry for her master and this poor child from the bottom of her heart.

But at the bottom of the dark palace in the heart, in the seemingly endless darkness, there is light.

The young man who was the first to reach out to Sakura, the first to provide Sakura with a place to stay.

The place of shelter was by no means a large and luxurious place like the Matou Residence, but with hidden filth. It was a place where the girl could truly rest her body and mind and make her feel warm and call it 'home'.

This light is not just that, this light makes the girl strong.

Let the girl understand that although she is in a dark abyss, there is a happy light behind the abyss.

The nature of the Matou family's magic is close to that of 'yin'. The more painful and desperate it is, the more power it can draw from it.

Matou Zouken, the head of the Matou family once wanted to inflict deeper suffering on Sakura. For example, let his grandson Matou Shinji invade Matou Sakura.

But Sakura, who was weak and submissive, rebelled at that time.

Using magic, he severely injured Matou Shinji, and then directly negotiated and fought with the source of the nightmare, Matou Zouken.

"Grandpa, I am valuable to you���"

"If this happens again, I will commit suicide without hesitation. You don't want this to happen"

"I want to leave the Matou family. As a price, I will seriously rest my magic, and then win the next Holy Grail War and fulfill the long-cherished wish of the Matou family."

The dark temple in Matou Sakura's heart was on the verge of breaking from this moment.

Although she still carried heavy pressure and the disgust of staying in the hell of the Matou family, at least she was on the road to light.

If Fengjian Xi's expectation for Shirou Emiya was to think more, choose more possibilities, and not regret the future.

Then the expectation for Matou Sakura is that even if you are in hell, don't give up the light, grasp hope, and fight.

PS: I am following the magic modified Sakura line.

To be honest, although it is good for a hero to save a beauty, I personally think that the real salvation is self-help. At most, you can help when you are sinking.
