Germany, Einzbern Castle hidden deep in the snowy mountains.
Kiritsugu Emiya, a man with a cat-eared hair style who had just summoned Saber, suddenly felt a little boring when he saw that the Servant he had summoned turned out to be a girl who was less than 1.6 meters tall even if the hair on her head was included.
Ignoring the girl's question "Are you my Master?", Kiritsugu sent a gentle look to Irisviel saying "I'll leave the rest to you", then turned around and left along the corridor, slowly walking towards the door of this chapel that resembled Holy Church.
But before Kiritsugu walked to the door, Irisviel had just said hello to Saber and was about to briefly explain to her that her husband actually had such a personality...
Something unexpected happened!
"Yeah!"
Saber asked with concern as she saw the silver-haired woman whose face suddenly changed, who moaned in pain, and instantly covered her chest while her legs weakened. If she hadn't reached out quickly to help her, she would have collapsed.
"Are you okay?"
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Saber was extremely nervous after noticing the change. Kiritsugu, who turned around and came in a hurry, was pushed aside!
"Irisviel? What's wrong? Doesn't it matter?"
Looking at his Master who didn't pay any attention to him, even though Saber had a good temper, he couldn't help but frown.
"Hmm..."
Irisviel smiled, shook his head slightly, then recovered a little, adjusted his expression, smiled and looked at Saber, who was frowning and looking a little unhappy.
"Sorry, Saber, can you wait for me here for a moment? I have something to say with Kiritsugu..."
Before Irisviel could finish speaking, Saber started to move very consciously, raised her legs and walked toward the door.
squeak——
After the door was closed by Saber who was leaving, Irisviel looked at Kiritsugu who was holding him with a concerned look on his face and said, "I'm fine, Kiritsugu, it's just...Holy Grail War seems to have started early."
"Huh?" Kiritsugu frowned, "Are you saying... that a Servant has been killed?"
"I don't know, but it has already started. It is too far away from Fuyuki, so I can only vaguely sense it, but this feeling is probably..."
Looking at his wife who was hesitant to speak, Kiritsugu smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's okay, I won't lose."
"Don't lie to me, Kiritsugu. I can tell."
Kiritsugu was silent, he had indeed lied, Servant on his side had just been summoned, Fuyuki's Holy Grail War started, the speed was outrageous!
Who on earth would take action so decisively and quickly?
Who is his target? Did you succeed?
At this moment, Kiritsugu felt that he couldn't wait any longer and had to act quickly!
Even though Miyu has been asked to go to Fuyuki to act as an eyeliner in advance, but... it's not enough! You have to get there as soon as possible to confirm with your own eyes!
This Holy Grail War is not that simple!
Shinji who left this world Matou Residence did not choose to die Tohsaka Residence to pay homage to the famous scene of Tokiomi who was paying homage to heaven just because he had won the SSR lottery, but went straight to Shinto.
As a humane person, if Ryunosuke can be caught committing a crime, Shinji will not hold back.
It doesn't matter even if it may change history and cause trouble, or even if a new Magecraft master that he doesn't know summons Caster.
If you have enough adaptability, you will not overturn in the same world a second time!
Of course, that's assuming it can be found.
However, Shinji's luck was not very good tonight, because Ryunosuke had not activated Mage Circuits in his body at this time, and even the magic power in his body was not difficult to detect. Shinji found no trace of the other party even at five o'clock in the morning.
In the end, Shinji could only give up temporarily and chose to find a small hotel to deal with it for the night, waiting to continue tomorrow.
It is worth mentioning that while Shinji was tracing the traces of Ryunosuke, he discovered Miyu who was staying in a hotel and had just returned from setting up a surveillance familiar.
And when passing by an uninhabited square, I saw a little cutie (Waver Velvet) and this year's Rider - Iskandar who were making a noise.
After secretly following the little cutie to find her exact address, Shinji left.
Six o'clock in the morning.
Matou Residence, when Sakura opened his eyes, what he saw was Kariya, who was sitting on the floor and sleeping beside the bed, holding his hand.
"Uncle Kariya..."
Kariya, who was awakened by Sakura's voice, opened his eyes, sat up straight, and rubbed his head.
"Morning, Sakura."
Sakura looked down at his body, and the weak voice sounded again.
"I always feel like my body... is a little strange..."
"No, this is a normal feeling."
Kariya tried hard to show his gentle side, and then gently rubbed Sakura's little head, and said his first promise to the little girl in a year, "Sakura, there is no need to go to the basement in the future."
"Huh?" Sakura tilted his little head. Because of this sentence, he fell into a kind of sluggishness, just like a computer: a program that was originally running normally suddenly went wrong.
Seeing Sakura with such an expression, Kariya felt a sore nose for no reason. Kariya, who felt that tears were about to fall, immediately hugged Sakura gently.
"It's true, uncle promises you. I will never go to that basement again, and I will never see grandpa again..."
After hearing Kariya's words, Sakura's tears that had completely disappeared a year ago emerged little by little from his empty eyes, and finally flowed down his expressionless face.
Kariya wiped away his tears and looked at Sakura who couldn't help but cry. He felt distressed and blamed himself, but at the same time he felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, it's not too late. The little girl's closed heart is not completely dead!
The tears welling up are proof!
Reaching out to wipe away the tears on Sakura's face, Kariya continued, "Okay, just smile. Can uncle take you to the park to play this afternoon?"
"Hmm..."
"Of course, before we go out to play again, let's make an agreement first, okay?"
"Promise?"
"Do you still remember the big brother from yesterday?"
"Yeah."
"Don't mention him in front of anyone. This is our agreement, okay?"
"Sakura knows."
Eight o'clock in the evening.
Looking at his own nephew, the seven-year-old Shinji Matou, who was currently looking at his collection of books related to Magecraft in the study with a serious look on his face, Kariya also made a comparison in his mind with Parallel World's eldest nephew.
Hmm... it does seem to be a little different.
"Shinji..."
Looking at the white-haired man standing at the door, little Shinji snorted and closed the Magecraft book he was reading.
For little Shinji, he is the real heir of this family! This second uncle who ran away from home before is incomparable to me!
Because of the nephew's stinky character and attitude, Kariya was indeed a little annoyed, but he still said kindly, "Are you very interested in Magecraft? So... do you want uncle to teach you?"
At this moment, little Shinji's eyes lit up!
In an instant, he jumped down from the chair and rushed to Kariya!
"Is it really possible?!"
Kariya stretched out his hand and rubbed little Shinji's soft hair, and said with a smile, "Yeah, okay, okay. Dirty... grandpa said before going out that he could let Shinji try it."
"I want to learn, I want to learn!"
Looking at little Shinji who looked excited and even impatient, Kariya also defended himself in his heart——
Sorry! Shinji!
It's all your own fault!
I have nothing to do with my second uncle!
"What are you afraid of? This is our Magecraft..."
In the basement that had been roughly cleaned up, Kariya squatted on the ground and pointed at Shinji's shoulders in a very friendly manner, pointing at the few bugs in Worm Pit that he had spent two hours cultivating.
"Second uncle, this..."
"Shinji, don't be afraid. If you are afraid, you can't learn from Magecraft. Be braver." Kariya continued to encourage little Shinji.
"It... will they bite me?" little Shinji asked tremblingly.
"Bite? No, no, no, our Magecraft needs to learn to coexist with them. Uncle, it took me a year to learn. Shinji will definitely learn it very quickly..."
"I..."
Little Shinji was a little hesitant because of his inner desire for Magecraft.
"Okay, hurry up, aren't you very interested in Magecraft? Uncle will definitely teach you well..."
At this time, little Shinji swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Although his scalp was indeed numb, he still took the first step tremblingly out of his inner desire for Magecraft...
At nine o'clock in the morning, Tsuruno was a little confused for a moment when he saw his son lying in his arms, shaking all over and muttering "I will never learn from Magecraft again" and "I want to become an ordinary person...".
Why did you suddenly change your gender?
I have said that I don't know how many times I have never changed this boy's stubborn temper!
Can you please stop shaking?
Your dad has been drinking all night and now his head is buzzing. You keep shaking and it makes me want to vomit...Σ_(???"∠)vomit...
Looking at his vomited son, Tsuruno wiped the corners of his mouth and waved his hands and said, "Hold... I'm sorry, Shinji, dad drank a little too much yesterday and asked the servant... Oh, there is no servant at home now, you can go and clean yourself."
"Uh... hehe..."
Little Shinji raised his head, tugged at the corner of his mouth and let out a chuckle, then he completely fainted with his eyes wide open...
Kariya, who was standing outside Tsuruno's house, mentally apologized to his real nephew when he heard the movement inside the house.
It's really "you" who requested it!
Don't blame the second uncle! Second uncle will not take the blame!
"Uncle Kariya?" Sakura, who was holding a little bunny doll left behind by someone last night, came over and looked up at the uncle who closed his eyes and looked unbearable.
"Oh, it's Sakura. Uncle will take you to dinner..."
Just as he spoke, Kariya thought that because of Holy Grail War, all the servants at home had been fed bugs by Zouken, and there was no one to cook now, so he quickly changed his words: "Uncle will feed you personally!"
