It Seems Caster's Route Was Also Entered Incorrectly

"Eat my big dick!"

The attack, wildly swung in anger, posed no threat to Rider. Iskandar calmly parried Jizi's spoiled, childish slashes with his short sword, while teasingly remarking, "Hahahaha, to be able to fight alongside me and occasionally act spoiled and temperamental, coupled with that unparalleled beauty, Caster, you are the perfect candidate for my King of Conquerors' Queen Consort! How about it? If you're willing, forget this Holy Grail, I can even share the world with you."

"Is that so? But I have no interest in guys like you, nor do I plan to get married—even if I had to marry, the Lancer over there would be much better than you. Saber also looks like a handsome young man. What makes you think I'd choose you!"

The two knights, who were innocently caught in the crossfire, broke out in a cold sweat as they saw the subtle look Rider cast their way. Although they hadn't gotten a clear look at Caster's face, her talent for stirring up trouble was certainly worthy of the title 'femme fatale.'

As for the masters, Weber gripped the edge of the Gordius Wheel, praying that Rider wouldn't cause any more trouble for him. At the same time, he nervously tried to shrink himself behind Rider. Though it was just a fleeting glimpse, he had indeed seen it: a beauty that shouldn't exist in the human world. Small, cherry-colored lips, a face shaped in almost a golden ratio, captivating red eyes, and silver hair that shimmered, reflecting the moonlight. This sparked a bit of a romantic fantasy in the heart of Weber, who was basically a nobody. However, he was also very afraid that Caster might take out her anger on him.

As for Irisviel, well—"Saber, Saber, did you see Caster's face just now? Is she really that beautiful? Actually, she was just shy, right? Because her attack had no killing power. Do Servants get shy too? Caster said she could marry you, what do you think, Saber?"

"When did I ever say I wanted to get married? I was just using it as an example, alright? Aren't you focusing on the wrong thing? The battle between Archer and Berserker over there is much more important, isn't it? Is my face really that fascinating?"

The urge to complain, which she couldn't suppress, finally erupted under Irisviel's provocation. However, when Jizi took a deep breath and calmed down, she found that everyone around her was staring at her with meaningful gazes... well, observing her.

"My Queen Consort will only be allowed to act spoiled towards me from now on." ← Rider.

"A capable woman, but truly beautiful. It would be great to see her one more time." ← Weber.

"She's shy again. But this won't do. If you want to marry Saber, at least let me see what you look like. Otherwise, I won't hand Saber over so easily." ← Irisviel.

"It was nothing at first, but after seeing everyone else's reaction, we're actually a little curious too." ← Saber and Lancer.

[Jizi: How am I reading such rich meaning from their gazes? This isn't the Hekiyou Student Council!]

Jizi, who was already a gloomy otaku type, was experiencing being stared at by so many people simultaneously for the first time, so she became shy in a very common way. However, this didn't stop the onlookers from their curious gazes; instead, it intensified their desire to see Jizi's mask come off.

Damn it, do they think they can make me compromise just by staring like this? I only agree to the requests of people I find appealing—like my (biological) mother and my (adopted) sister. Who do they think they are? Wait a minute, Irisviel, Artoria, Iskandar, and Luck E... they all seem to be people I "find appealing"... How did I dig my own grave! But even Artoria, the poster girl of Type-Moon... it's not entirely impossible... Fine, you win! Besides, the plan wasn't something I could complete alone anyway. Winning over other Servants was bound to happen sooner or later. This is a genuine opportunity to greatly improve my favorability, and hiding my mask within my spiritual body is safer for me. I just really don't want to be stared at for nothing. My manly dignity (even if there's not much left, there's still a little!) will cry! At least I need to turn the tables a bit to make them uncomfortable, humph!

After a period of internal struggle while looking down, Jizi, who had finally made up her mind, chose to hide her mask within her spiritual body. When she looked up and revealed her appearance generously (was it truly "generous"?)...

"Ilya!"

The first person to exclaim was Irisviel.

"No, Madam, I'm telling you, I really have no relation to your daughter. Please spare me."

The scene was still Fuyuki Port, but the cast had changed slightly—Gilgamesh, the dark one, Luck E, the Emperor, and the Queen Consort were gone. Kayneth, who should have been lurking in the shadows, had also left.

While everyone else was marveling at Jizi's beauty and showering her with praise, evaluations, and chatter, Gilgamesh, whose G-spot had been hit but couldn't be fully satisfied—after all, the opponent's skill was too high—finally decided to unleash his ultimate move to have a good time. However, his long-brewed climax was ultimately interrupted by Tokiomi. He could only leave after uttering a harsh threat, looking dejected.

After losing his target, Yangtze then extended his sinful black hand towards Miss Artoria. Kayneth also forcibly ordered Luck E and Yangtze to gang-rape... no, to take turns... no, that's not right, everyone understood. The Emperor naturally couldn't stand such behavior, so he charged into the enemy formation with his chariot, saving Miss Artoria. Jizi also seized another opportunity to gain favorability, standing beside Saber and throwing a large fireball at Lancer, who was charging over, finally thwarting Kayneth's lewd plan. As he left, Lancer, who had been hit, even thanked Jizi... Without her mask, she had to work hard to stop herself from laughing.

Presumably, Yanye couldn't hold on any longer, and Yangtze soon spiritualized and retreated. Then, after being teased, "What exactly did you come here for, you guy?", the Emperor laughed heartily and drove away in his ox cart—of course, not forgetting to tease Jizi. Jizi, after firing a few fireballs into the sky as if venting her frustration, was about to leave when Saber, signaled by Irisviel, stopped her.

The reason was:

"Caster, you look just like my daughter. I'm destined to never see my daughter grow up. Can you let me look at you more? I think Ilya will grow up to be just like you. Please, fulfill this wish of a mother."

What was Jizi's appearance (which was Suigintou)? Silver hair, red eyes, a small mouth, a slightly upturned cute nose, and a melon seed face. What did Ilyasviel look like? Silver hair, red eyes, a small mouth, a slightly upturned cute nose, and although she had a bit of baby fat now, that was because her face hadn't fully developed yet. So, being told this was understandable. Since Jizi really couldn't bear to refuse a mother's request, and with Saber giving her a look that said, "Dare you not agree?", she stood there and played the role of a model. Who knew—

"Caster, you just showed the ability to change clothes instantly. Can you do me another favor? Change into a skirt, okay? Change into a formal dress, okay? Change into winter clothes, okay? Change into a suit like Saber's, okay? Change into a Western dress, okay? Change into a sailor uniform, okay? Change into clothes like this, this, and that, okay, okay..." (①)

After being tormented with countless outfits, Jizi finally couldn't take it anymore. She was now kneeling before Irisviel, prostrating herself in a standard five-point submission, begging for mercy.

"Oh my, I'm truly sorry, Miss Caster. It's mainly because I really want to see what my daughter looks like in various clothes. I've troubled you."

"I... dare... not accept. As long as you... let me go... Miss Ilyasviel... will surely become many times more beautiful than me in the future. [Jizi: Legal lolis are the best.]"

However, this unintentional remark caused Irisviel's "interest," which had just faded, to reappear.

"Miss Caster, how did you know my daughter's name?"

"Huh? What? Didn't you just say it yourself, Madam?"

"But I only called out Ilya, not Ilyasviel."

Damn it! Jizi cried out in her heart that something was wrong. Because she was mentally exhausted, she had let her guard down and inadvertently said something she shouldn't have. However, she tried to bluff her way through: "Ahahaha, my Master investigated the other participants."

"But even some people in the Einzbern family don't know my daughter's name. How did you find out?"

Damn it, Madam, why don't you just go and devise a battle plan now instead of bothering me? "Ah ha ha ha, my Master has special investigation techniques."

Of course, Irisviel wouldn't be easily fooled.

"I'm watching~~~~"

"Ahhhhhhh, this is so annoying! We're enemies, why should I tell you this? I'm leaving, goodbye!"

Unfortunately, Saber stopped Jizi first, preventing her from escaping. Irisviel, resting her chin on her hand and with her other hand behind her back, paced back and forth for a while, then suddenly a light bulb lit up above her head... I mean, she suddenly reached a conclusion and shouted:

"I know! I heard that the Hall of Heroes is an existence parallel to all timelines, right, Saber?"

"That's right." Although she didn't know what Irisviel was thinking, Saber still answered seriously.

"In other words, it's not impossible to summon a Heroic Spirit from the future?"

"Theoretically, yes, but..."

"Caster, although you say we are enemies, I don't feel any hostility from you at all. On the contrary, your actions have been helping us, and you seem to have a sense of closeness towards me and Saber, don't you?"

"Iris, now that you mention it, it does seem that way..."

"Hey, hey, hey! Whatever you're imagining, I'm telling you, it's absolutely wrong! Stop guessing!" Jizi, sensing something, interrupted the detective performance of Alice and her assistant, Artoria. Unfortunately, unlike Sherlock, this lady wasn't too concerned with logic to a certain extent.

"Combined with this appearance, Caster, your identity is actually the future Illyasviel!"

"How big does your imagination have to be to reach such a conclusion!"

①: Fate/Zero's fourth drama CD, Part 1. It tells the delightful story of how helping Kiritsugu buy clothes turned into Irisviel forcing Kiritsugu and Saber to try on other outfits. It revealed Irisviel's fetish for dressing others up.

ps. Reason for today's update:

1. Holiday. 2. Celebrating the book's breakthrough progress yesterday: Collections increased from 17 to 37, more than doubling! Recommendations surged from 3 to 17, a nearly 6-fold increase! Reader impressions went from non-existent to present, a huge step! 3. Main reason (mist): Actually, I finished my homework.

ps2. Regarding the reader impression of that literary-style synopsis, I want to say that I'm actually far beyond an ordinary youth, and even further above a literary youth — I'm a [—BEEP—] [—BEEP—] youth! (It seems those two silences are meaningless...)
