The Author Is Also Trying Their Best

The introduction said the C route was Sakura's route, but in reality, it was all just teasing Saber, teasing Saber, and teasing Saber. So now it's time to show off my true Queen Consort demeanor.

So, I'm really going all out for Sakura-chan.

---Advance notice, you haven't missed any chapters---

Life is full of temptation.

All sorts of temptations.

Money, power, beauty, pleasure, strength... countless choices.

How can one pick the right one from so many possibilities? Or rather, what kind of choice can be called "right"?

Environments and backgrounds differ, characters and times differ, worldviews and values differ. How can one achieve what is called correctness?

"No answer" can be a "correct" answer, but what is this "correctness" based on?

Complex, multifaceted, contradictory, unified, without a standard, elusive, chaos and confusion. Life is precisely because of this that it is so charming, so pleasurable!

Yes, pleasure, heartfelt ecstasy, all-encompassing love. Only the master who controls this incredible emotion can have the right to stand at the top!

Although there is the saying "all beings are equal" – meaning everything can be a source of pleasure, with no distinction – there are still individual differences in the fine details: some are pleased by farce, some by tragedy, some by tranquility, some by conflict... Legend has it that only that primordial hero, the oldest human king, could view everything as pleasure, and it is precisely for this reason that he became such a great existence. However, for ordinary people, being able to encompass one or two ultimate pleasures is already commendable.

So, everyone, what brings you pleasure?

If you have never considered this question, please strive to think about it later, analyze yourselves, face the core of your hearts, and find your pleasure! If you have already considered this question, then firmly walk down that path, let pleasure take root and sprout in the depths of your soul, and grow into a towering tree!

Everyone, all you aspiring individuals gathered here for pleasure, if you can, please listen to the Way of Pleasure that I sing of, be infected by my pleasure, and revel

The shopping street in Miyama Town, a place frequented by foreigners due to Fuyuki City being a port town, welcomed a group of individuals one day who drew unusual glances even from the most experienced shopkeepers.

A burly man and a silver-haired girl excitedly discussing games in an electronics store, a slender youth who seemed to be called "Queen Consort," a white-haired middle-aged man with a scar on his face, a quiet-looking purple-haired young girl, and a handsome blue-haired butler.

How did things escalate to this point?

After the eventful night, another peaceful day passed. It seemed everyone was processing the events of that night, as no conflicts occurred even after dark. The entire Fuyuki City enjoyed a rare period of tranquility. The tense atmosphere that had persisted since the "serial murders" seemed to have calmed down with the 24-hour buffer.

Then, the next morning, the King of Conquerors, accompanied by his Queen Consort, boldly visited the Matou Residence. He invited Jizi and the Knight of the Yangtze to "go shopping in the city."

Jizi was initially very against this. Although the King of Conquerors invited the servants, if Jizi and Lancelot both went out, Yanye and Sakura would naturally not be able to stay home. Jizi's concern was exposing Sakura directly to the sight of other participants.

Despite her often erratic behavior, Jizi was very serious and diligent about protecting lolis—I mean, Sakura. Except for a few rare occasions, Sakura was practically always the center of Jizi's attention. There were even times when she cut her finger while cooking due to being distracted. Thanks to her unique nature, she was still able to bounce around like this.

As for the reason for doing so, aside from a large portion of her inner, sordid desires, it was her worry about Sakura, who was the weakest yet most crucial link.

Although she was just a human girl, Sakura played an important role in this group. Not only did Berserker's magic come from her, but if anything happened to her, Yanye, Lancelot, and Jizi would all be affected, making their entire alliance precarious.

The people Jizi was guarding against were naturally Kiritsugu Emiya, who was currently emotionally unstable after learning about "All the World's Evils," and Kirei Kotomine, whose training was unknown.

To be fair, Jizi was being a bit overly cautious. However, before her transmigration, her impressions of Kiritsugu and Kirei from watching anime and reading novels were too profound, especially Lancer's suicide. That overwhelming malevolence—though fundamentally originating from Urobuchi Gen—truly "amazed" her. Kiritsugu's abilities and image were infinitely magnified in her mind, making her naturally jump at shadows.

Actually, upon closer thought, it was obvious. Setting aside whether Kiritsugu had detailed information about Matou Sakura and their alliance, the mere fact that there were two Servants inside the Matou Residence was enough to be certain that Kiritsugu would not and could not harbor any ill intentions.

But even so, images like "Kiritsugu, at four times the speed, suddenly rushes out, grabs Sakura, and disappears without a trace" would still pop into Jizi's mind from time to time. That's why she even slept in the same bed as Sakura at night.

Considering all this, the idea of letting Sakura leave the safety of the Matou Residence and expose herself to the crowd—Jizi didn't believe the nonsense that daytime meant a truce and no danger—was something she naturally couldn't agree to.

What changed her mind were two things: the King of Conquerors' request—which was more of a demand and not easy to refuse—and Sakura's expression.

This little girl, after experiencing separation from her family, inhuman abuse, and salvation from despair, had a very unstable mental world. Jizi and Yanye were trying their best to help her rebuild her worldview with care and love. However, Yanye, a middle-aged loser who failed in his comeback, couldn't play the role of a confidante—and Jizi couldn't either, though her image was more suitable. But her "love" was not easy to bear; if not handled carefully, it might leave even more severe psychological trauma.

So, for now, all they could do was try to satisfy Sakura's every request. After the King of Conquerors extended the invitation, Jizi caught a fleeting look of longing on Sakura's face, so she had no choice but to agree.

After all, she was a Servant. Surely she could protect a little girl?

So, she's holding Sakura on her shoulders for easier protection, really, no other intentions!

"The bank is this way, right?"

"Hey, I'm talking to you, Rider..."

Since Rider didn't have enough cash to buy an SFC, he dragged his Queen Consort to the bank to withdraw money. Yanye's bladder chose that moment to give a warning, so he took Berserker to find a restroom—for safety reasons, a human must always be accompanied by a Servant. Now, only Jizi and Sakura were left, idly wandering between shops.

However, Jizi, who had only ever been in love with her wallet, had no idea how to shop with a girl. Before her transmigration, she had only followed her sister from a distance, not participated. So now—

Ah, what do I do, what do I do? This is so awkward. I can't tell what she wants, and there's no topic of conversation. Should we just wander around like this? That doesn't seem right. Since you wanted to come out and play, why don't you pick something you like? Why do you keep looking at me? And why are you blushing mysteriously? Are you concerned about me? No need at all...

Wait a minute, a memory seems to be resurfacing in my mind. Loli, Sakura, lick, Yangtze...

Why are you pulling me? I was about to remember! Can't you wait a moment? I can't remember anything now... And why are the last two keywords "lick" and "Yangtze"? I'm so curious!

Alright, alright, stop pulling me, let me see—

Absolutely gorgeous twin tails! Their inherent attribute power must be able to become excellent motivation, defeat Eldimikai, and maintain world peace.

Wait a minute, those twin tails look a bit familiar—isn't that Rin Tohsaka?!

Ps: Actually, thinking about it, the C route should be ending soon. After all, all the foreshadowing has been laid out, and now it's time to dig them up one by one. Speaking of digging, here's the problem...

Ps2: The decisive battle should be coming up soon... but I'm not sure how to write it—or rather, I don't know how to put the things in my head into words. My skill level is indeed limited...

Ps3: So, can I play around with side stories or something? Can I? Can I? I definitely can, right!

Ps4: This chapter is a bit chaotic because there were originally some things to add, like how the opening with lost integrity is actually a foreshadowing, and Rin Tohsaka also has a role to play. But I'm a bit tired, and it's already almost 4k words—although there's no serious content, so I'll leave it at that. I'll talk about the rest in the next chapter.

Psp: It's a transitional chapter, please understand.
