The Zenjo family is an ancient family in Kobe that has not had its magic bloodline for a long time. There was a powerful magician several generations ago, but his descendants were inexplicably unable to inherit magic talents.
Regarding this, the subsequent heads of the Chancheng family agreed that this was all caused by the improper selection of a spouse by the ancestor of the magician. After all, he chose a woman as his wife who had no magic talent or blood and was extremely ordinary. And that woman
Shortly after giving birth to his son, he died of magic backlash, a disease that a magician would never suffer from. The grief-stricken ancestor of the magician ran away from home and never came back.
After discussion, the head of the family and the clan elders wrote into the family motto "It is forbidden to marry those who have no magic talent, and those who violate it will be directly expelled from the family." Although there has been no more amazing magician since then, the Chancheng family has been widely recognized by the outside world.
It seems that they are still an excellent family of magicians.
Because after a Chancheng family girl gets married, the chance of giving birth to an offspring with excellent magic bloodline is very high, and the children's self-care for their mother and their relatives forms a huge network that affects the whole body.
Under the influence of such a foundation, the Chancheng family generally favors women over men. Men are only useful for reproducing offspring and inheriting the Chancheng surname, while women hold almost all important powers except the head of the family. In fact, if it were not for the pressure of secular concepts
Because they were too old and they had few children, some women from Chancheng who were not inferior to their men even had the idea of recruiting brides to establish a female family.
Because of this, after returning with her two extremely talented daughters, Tohsaka Aoi received an extremely warm welcome. Not only did her food, clothing, and everything else comply with the regulations of the family elders, but her sisters who were already married and could not come back at will also
One after another, Aoi's nephews and nieces were brought to her to play with. Aoi, who couldn't laugh or cry, had to let Xiao Rin and Xiao Sakura greet them.

"What! Tohsaka Tokiomi's—uh, brother-in-law actually has such a stupid idea? Why didn't you say anything?"
On this day, when Tosaka Aoi and Zenjo Shinnosuke, her brother, were talking about Fuyuki's ongoing Holy Grail War, he accidentally revealed that Tokiomi had had the idea of adopting Sakura. The next head of the family with unusually thick eyebrows immediately
Patted the table.
"He is also the head of a family. If he really makes a decision, I can't object to it, and it's just an intention." Seeing her brother's fury, Tohsaka Aoi smiled as she remembered what happened when she was a child.
"Who is the head of the family? The head of a family with only one descendant from him?" Kui's brother snorted: "If he doesn't want such a lovely niece, he can return it to us. After all, no one is willing to use the magic seal in Chancheng for many years.
inherit."
"Then you take over. Haven't you found a sister-in-law for me yet?" Kui looked at him with a half-smile.
"Spare me, that kind of magic seal accumulated over generations. How do you find a suitable partner? Who would want to inherit it except for the sisters who use it before they get married? - Hey! Don't change the subject! Who will be adopted?
"Fujimura family?" Shinnosuke slammed the table again.
"You've also seen the Matou family, Kariya." Aoi sighed softly, thinking of her childhood sweetheart.
"Well, you have to get it if you can't get it... Wow! What are you doing!" Zencheng Shinnosuke covered his head and ran away.
"Don't get carried away, Shin-chan." Aoi maintained Yamato Nadeshiko's smile and took back the TV remote control she had just hit her brother on the head: "Let's get down to business, what is that?"
In front of the two brothers and sisters, a blurry picture was displayed on the TV in the living room, which looked like a beam of light shooting straight into the sky. The host was discussing with several so-called experts. The range of speculations ranged from auroras to nuclear tests.
Space-based weapons have been developed with the numbers of aliens, Ultraman and even apostles.
"It has to be said that this kind of nonsense directly turned a major accident into an anecdote. It will probably disappear from the attention of ordinary people soon. It can be seen that the confidentiality methods of the Magic Association are becoming more advanced." Zencheng Shinnosuke.
He covered his head and slowly sat back.
"Accident?" Aoi asked, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"After all, it's just Linshi. We know a little bit about the Holy Grail War there. This is obviously the result of a battle between two summoned heroic spirits without any cover-up. Tokiomi is also working hard, having to participate in the war and help cover up the movement.
——Xiao Kui? You don’t know, right?” Zencheng Shinnosuke stopped mid-sentence when he realized that his sister’s expression was wrong.
"No, he mentioned that he wanted to participate in a potentially dangerous magic confrontation, so he sent us away, but I didn't expect it." Tohsaka Aoi stood up and paced back and forth anxiously, "——It's so serious.
To the extent that if you are not careful, you will die."
"It seems that Tokiomi didn't tell you, well, telling you is useless except to make you worry more." Shinnosuke patted the sand: "Don't worry, even if you don't believe him, you still have to believe that our Chancheng family chooses a son-in-law.
It’s my vision.”
"Hmm..." Aoi looked at the scary picture on TV again, and the images of Tokiomi's two disciples suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, the serious and unsmiling Kotomine Kirei, and the lively, funny, and talented Ryuu no Umei
Then he slowly sat down again: "I can only believe them now."

"Look, look, this big sister must be a heroic spirit!"
"Ah! This man is so handsome, he must be a heroic spirit!"
Facing a group of children of the same generation from the Chancheng family, Tohsaka Rin sighed very maturely.
How should I put it? Rin understands the meaning of "being a magician's daughter" better than other children. She has to learn knowledge that will not be taught in class and go deep into areas that cannot be reached by roads or railways.
And fighting nameless enemies, possibly dying in a place where no one will ever find him, is what a magician is.
The most outstanding magician was her father, Tokiomi Tohsaka. The huge beam of light that shot straight into the sky must have been created by his father.
Because my father is participating in a very dangerous but inevitable war - a war in which seven magicians summon seven heroic spirits to fight against each other, and the winner will get a treasure called [Root].
The summoned heroic spirits all come from those big books, how could they come from TV as these brats guessed? What the hell is Ultraman?
Especially this old woman from Fuyuki, who is still not getting married even though she is over 10 years old. Not only did she come to hang out with them, but she also took advantage of everyone's discussion of the beam of light and took out many strange photos for everyone to guess which one.
Heroic spirits, how can a truly powerful heroic spirit be photographed?
"Sister, this is Ryuunosuke."
Sakura, who was easily deceived, was indeed confused by the things they brought her. She wanted to rescue her sister, not just to see how Ryunosuke was photographed.
Rin walked over and started looking through the photos.
After not seeing Ryuunosuke for a while, the bad guy became even more stupid. He actually rode a motorcycle with a strange guy in black armor. Sure enough, he was chased by the female patrol behind him, but would the nearest patrol recruit foreigners with money?
...Well, she admitted that these three aunts were very beautiful, but they couldn't be heroic spirits. They were probably the eldest lady and the maid who had just returned from a charity dinner. But why was the maid in a wheelchair?
And this, don't think that a red head, a red beard and a strong figure means a heroic spirit. Look at the thin uncle next to him, he must be the fitness trainer he hired from abroad.
And how did this obviously photo of a soldier on leave get mixed in? And that one, the one dressed in black is obviously a thief wearing night clothes. If you have time to take pictures, why not call the police?
Rin flipped through a few photos at random, but they were all meaningless images that had nothing to do with heroic spirits, so he threw them away and stood up without interest.
"I'm going to find my uncle, Sakura, will you go?" "Yeah, okay."

In addition to being a magician, Matou Kariya is also a photography enthusiast. Although he has no intention of inheriting the Matou family's "family business", his innate magic blood still gives him an excellent sense of balance and eyesight.
It is easy to find the most worthy pictures among the beautiful scenery that ordinary people would just say "wow", and the golden section composition is even easier to come by.
Originally, Kariya only submitted articles to some photography magazines and newspapers in exchange for remuneration, but his talent was noticed by a publishing tycoon who owned many newspapers and magazine industries, and he was hired as the vice president of a photography publishing house, but he was not arranged
Any hard responsibilities only require "to provide perfect photos as usual".
Having said that, Kariya's photos are rarely imperfect. As a result, he has published two personal photography books so far, which have been well received. His pen name "Dark Kaliya" is also famous in the photography industry.
She has become quite famous. If she hadn't been worried about Tohsaka Aoi and her two daughters, she might have accepted the invitation to go abroad long ago.
And now, because of a deliberately leaked photo of a huge beam of light, he plans to go to Fuyuki again. Ordinary people only see it as something to talk about after dinner, but only those who truly understand magic know how large-scale the magic collision is.
That will cause that effect.
Although he was dissatisfied with Tokiomi Tosaka, his level of magic was genuine, and Ryunosuke also obtained the Command Seal... These reasons allowed Kariya to constantly convince himself that Aoi would be fine, but he didn't feel any worry at all.
of reduction.
Finally, after a rare mess up at work, Kariya asked the president to visit Fuyuki, but he was easily agreed.
"Tell me earlier, I am also very interested in that light pillar, and the photos used in the news are simply terrible. If it were me, I would have taken a good picture of its interior even if it was blown into the sky by a tornado." The president said.
So Matou Kariya drove towards Fuyuki while recalling his magic knowledge. No matter what, he had to let Tokiomi send Aoi, Rin and Sakura out of Fuyuki first.
