Click.
Gilgash's slender finger pressed the red button.
"What was that?" Tokiomi Tohsaka, hearing the click, looked up at Gilgash, a puzzled look on his face.
"You're alright?" Gilgash looked at Tokiomi, her brow furrowed in confusion. She had expected sothing to happen when she pressed the button. Haru's earlier, mischievous grin had been—unsettling.
Tokiomi stared at her, dumbfounded. He was fine. Why did she seem so surprised?
A look of annoyance crossed Gilgash's face. She'd been played.
"That little brat—I'll have to punish him later..." Her crimson eyes narrowed.
Then, her expression shifted, her brow furrowing as she noticed sothing behind Tokiomi, who was still kneeling—several golden arrows, protruding from his chest. And one of them was slowly losing its—luster.
Gilgash's eyes widened, a red light flickering within them as she activated [Sha Naqba Imuru], her omniscience.
"A Love God's power? Cupid's arrow?" she murmured, watching as the arrow turned black, its magic dissipating.
She turned her gaze towards Kariya Matou, who lay sleeping on a nearby sofa. She saw them there—more golden arrows.
"Your Majesty? Is sothing the matter?" Tokiomi asked, seeing her disturbed expression.
Gilgash's lips curved into a bright, beautiful smile, though her eyes held a chilling glint of malice.
Tokiomi, captivated by her beauty, stared at her, enthralled.
"Tokiomi..." she purred.
"Do you have any instructions, my Queen," he replied, his voice smooth, his deanor shifting from subservient mage to elegant gentleman.
Gilgash wasn't surprised. No one could resist her beauty, her allure. Even Goddesses had fallen prey to her charms.
A re mortal like Tokiomi Tohsaka...
She looked at the arrows protruding from his back, a playful smirk on her face. "Tokiomi—do you rember Kariya Matou?"
"That." At the ntion of Kariya's na, Tokiomi's mind was flooded with mories of their eight years together.
Aoi's disappearance, orchestrated by an unknown Magician using Kariya's form—the encounter in the woods—he and Kariya.
Tokiomi's eyes widened, his neatly trimd mustache bristling as the mories played out, his usually composed face twisting into a mask of horror.
His eyes lost focus, one wide, the other narrowed to a slit.
"Uh..uh,"
Gilgash, watching his performance, her laughter echoing through the workshop, clutched her stomach, tears streaming down her face.
"So, you rember now? Your preferences?"
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!" Tokiomi's eyes snapped into focus, and he rembered the expressions on the faces of Fuyuki City's elite, the social gatherings he'd attended with Kariya, introducing him as his... lover
He collapsed onto the floor, sobbing uncontrollably.
"My ancestors! Forgive ! I've disgraced the Tohsaka na!" His cries were filled with a desperate, heart-wrenching anguish.
He wept for thirty minutes, his sobs gradually subsiding into quiet whimpers.
"So, Tokiomi," Gilgash purred, her voice seductive, "What are you going to do now? Would you like to kill Kariya Matou?"
At the word "kill," Tokiomi's face twisted into a mask of rage. The Tohsaka na couldn't be tarnished. Not by him. Not by this affliction. He crawled towards the sofa, reaching for his jeweled staff.
"It seems your activities have beco public knowledge," Gilgash said, gesturing towards a stack of newspapers.

Tokiomi stared at the headlines, his eyes vacant. His efforts, his eight-year campaign to modernize Japan's social values, using the Tohsaka's influence all for this.
"I can't kill him. If I do—I'll be condemned. The Tohsaka na—it can't end like this with ..."
"So you'll embrace it?" Gilgash's lips curved into a sinister smile.
She turned to leave, her form shimring, dissolving into golden light. "How amusing. Your choice it's intriguing. Very well, Tokiomi. For your entertainnt value—I'll spare your life."
Tokiomi stood up and walked over to Kariya, who lay slumped on the sofa, his body exhausted.
He slapped Kariya across the face.
"What the—?! Tokiomi? What's wrong?" Kariya murmured, his eyes still glazed over with sleep.
Tears stread down Tokiomi's face as he sobbed, "Get up! Let's continue."

A golden light shimred in the Einzbern courtyard.
"Gilgash? I was just about to look for you," Haru said, holding Saber's hand, his eyes widening slightly as he saw the Queen of Heroes.
"Haru-chan, You've turned that dullard into sothing quite amusing. A truly remarkable transformation," Gilgash said with a bright smile, her voice, however, held a chilling undertone.
"You flatter . My thods are nothing compared to yours," Haru replied with a grin.
Saber, watching their exchange, her face paling, felt a shiver of unease. Her Instinct told her that whatever they were discussing—it wasn't good.
"So, Haru-chan, if you're looking for —that ans the Grail is ready?" Gilgash tilted her head slightly, a playful glint in her eyes.
"Indeed," Haru replied.
"And the location?"
"Ryūdō Temple, Mount Enzō."
