The aroma of Darjeeling Tea filled Tokiomi Tohsaka's underground workshop.
He lifted the delicate porcelain cup to his lips, inhaling the fragrant steam, a look of contentment on his face.
Then, a jolt of pain—a sharp, searing pain—shot through him as his Magic Circuits opened, his magical energy forcibly extracted.
He smiled, his voice filled with excitement as he spoke into the communication device. "Kirei, she's made her move! Inform Emiya. Have his Servants snipe any Einzbern survivors. And you... send Hassan after Emiya."
"Understood, Master." Kirei's voice was calm, even.
Tokiomi, as he relayed his orders, reached for a shimmering jewel on a nearby table—a magically charged gemstone, pulsing with power.
The Tohsaka specialized in Jewel Magecraft, utilizing gemstones' ability to store magical energy. They would imbue jewels with their power, creating potent magical attacks that could be unleashed instantly.
Having experienced the unpleasantness of having his magical energy completely drained the previous night, Tokiomi had come prepared. The jewel held ten years' worth of his accumulated magical power.
"Mmm..." He moaned, a wave of relief washing over him as he felt the energy flowing into his body, replenishing his reserves.
