Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 285: Aoi Tohsaka keeps making mistakes

"Tamazuki-sama, who is that?"

Naturally, when Aoi rang the bell of one of his houses, it attracted the attention of Scheherazade and others. The appearance of Aoi made them confused, and they wondered who she was.

"It's a bit complicated. I will explain it to you later. I need to go out for a while."

Tamazuki then left to meet Aoi.

Nevertheless, Scheherazade had a guess who Aoi was, and at the same time, she zoomed in on the hands area of Aoi on the screen, and then, as expected, she saw the ring on her left hand.

"...married woman?"

Saber and Irisviel were speechless.

"So, he likes a married woman so much?" Irisviel asked.

"Probably?" Either way, Scheherazade would be lying if this wasn't fun, so she decided to observe Tamazuki and Aoi quietly.

Irisviel and Saber looked at each other and thought that they might as well follow Scheherazade since they didn't have anything to do.

Aoi stared at the house in front of her and didn't know what she was thinking. She knew she might be crazy, especially when she knew what kind of a man she was about to meet.

Yet, even so, she decided to come here.

Why did she come here?

Aoi stared at the crystal ball that she held in her hands in silence.

It was one of the things given to her after he left.

Among those things, without a doubt, this crystal ball was the most precious one since it was capable of seeing anything that she wanted to see.

During those days after she got this crystal ball, she used it to see Tamazuki, watching what he did and also watched her husband, who was at the Tohsaka residence, facing something that she didn't know.

Holy Grail?

Frankly, Aoi didn't know about this, and she didn't care much either since she only cared about her family.

Still, the reason why she came here was because she wanted to return this crystal ball since it was so precious. Moreover, she didn't feel that it was correct for her to receive this item. Lastly, she was afraid.

She was afraid she might use it to see her second daughter, which was given to the Matou family.

Even though she knew that her husband had told her to forget about Sakura, she knew that she couldn't, yet at the same time, she was afraid to see what was happening to Sakura.

If she looked at Sakura, then she was afraid that she might ask her husband to return Sakura.

Still, fortunately, she didn't since if she saw what had happened to Sakura, then she might commit suicide due to the shock.

Nevertheless, to erase this urge, she decided to return the item to Tamazuki, and that's why she came to his house.

Still, it might be strange for her to be able to find the location of his house, but everything was due to this crystal ball. She often peeked at him, watched him work, and did various things. She also knew when she went out and when she returned.

It was also why she decided to come at this moment.

She pressed the bell of his house, then waited for a while and observed his house.

"Yes."

His voice made her heart shake, and her body trembled slightly as she quickly remembered the memory of that night.

Then, the person that had made her crazy that night was seen.

Tamazuki opened the door of his house and was also surprised. "...Aoi-san?"

Aoi nodded gently while showing an awkward smile. "...Tamazuki-kun."

"....." 2x

The two fell into awkward silence before Tamazuki broke the silence.

"Sorry, it's rude of me to let you stay outside like this. How about you enter first, Aoi-san?"

"I..."

Aoi hesitated, but then she nodded. "Okay." Then, under his guidance, she entered his house and looked around curiously.

"Sorry, I have just moved, so it's still messy."

"No, it's okay. I am the one who suddenly comes without any notice."

"So, is Rin okay?"

"Rin..." Aoi thought of her daughter helplessly, then lightly blamed him. "She was crying when you suddenly disappeared."

"...I will apologize later."

"You should."

Those conversations were like it was something natural for him to visit Aoi's house once again to meet Rin even though what had happened to them. Yet, it was like this. They talked to each other, pretending like nothing had happened.

However, inside?

Who could tell?

The two entered the house and talked for a while, but Aoi quickly woke up and realized her purpose was to come.

"Um, Tamazuki-kun. I am sorry, but I will return all of these."

From her bag, she took out the two items given by him previously.

As for the martial arts book, while Aoi thought about returning that book to Tamazuki, she changed her decision when she saw her daughter crying. Whether it was her sister who was adopted into the Matou family or her father who went for the dangerous war, she had never shed tears, but when Tamazuki left, she was crying like any other child.

While Aoi was stunned, she was also sad and strangely happy since it felt like Rin had released all of those emotions in her heart. However, Rin only cried for a moment before she took Tamazuki's books and learned everything with her.

Watching her daughter who had gone practicing, Aoi didn't have the courage to take that book away since she could tell that her daughter treasured that book that much or her connection with Tamazuki.

Yet, with her relationship with Tamazuki, Aoi also felt conflicted.

Even though everything was done partly due to the alcohol, Aoi knew that if she didn't invite him, nothing like that would happen, and their relationship wouldn't be so awkward.

"Are you sure?" Tamazuki asked.

"Yes." Aoi nodded. "Those items are too important, and I can't have them."

"I see." Tamazuki nodded and didn't force her to keep those two items.

"Then, I will go back now."

"Okay." Tamazuki stood up. "I will see you off."

"...yes."

The two stood next to each other as they walked to the entrance of his house. However, unlike before, this time, they were quiet, and neither of them talked. It wasn't until she was about to put on the mules that she spoke to him.

"It's enough for you to send me here, Tamazuki-kun."

"Yes, Aoi-san."

Aoi put on her mules, and then she faced Tamazuki.

They fell into silence as they stared at each other.

Then, at that moment, Tamazuki moved his lips forward.

Aoi was calm as she leaned into him, letting him kiss her.

Then, in the end, he brought her into his room and continued her second mistake.

"........" 3x

"...she is a married woman, right?"

"Un."

"I wonder who her husband is."

"...should it be one of the Masters of the Holy Grail?"

"...."

"...probably?"

"Then, do you think it is one of his strategies to take down the opponent's Masters?"

"......"

"...probably not?"

In the end, they stopped thinking and watched how Tamazuki took down another married woman.
