No one present noticed that on top of a distant building, a girl with golden hair and blue eyes, about the same age as Rin, watched Rin in the plaza with an infatuated gaze.

"Rin Tohsaka, so it's you!"

A few days later.

With the mana of over 50 Magus in the Holy Grail depleted, Ryougi Shiki and Fujino were no longer in their Servant states. Rin, who was afraid of 'Shiki', had already left Garan no Dou after that night's battle.

At a cafe in Kanfushi City, as Touko and the others arrived, Rin snapped her fingers to activate a spell that dispersed the idle patrons. Once the cafe's customers had left one after another, Rin spoke to everyone.

"I'm going back!"

Aoko nodded and said to Rin.

"It's time to go back, Rin. You've been out for several months."

"But there are a few things I want to say before I leave. Touko, would you be willing to visit my home? Sakura is also really looking forward to you visiting us!"

"I can!"

"That's wonderful, Sakura will be very happy!"

As she spoke, Rin took out a stack of documents from her small satchel and handed them to Touko. Touko was stunned the moment she received them.

There were three documents in total that Rin handed to Touko. One was a document that Rin obtained through Kotomine's connections, which would lift Touko's sealing designation. Compared to the original work, this document was several years earlier.

The second and third documents were an invitation from the Tohsaka family for Touko to assist in managing the ley lines of Fuyuki City and a contract to employ Touko as a consultant for the Tohsaka family.

Touko first set aside the document for lifting the sealing designation, then picked up the two documents and asked Rin.

"Rin, what's the reason?"

"Don't you think we get along well? Also, I need your help. In two years, I'll start searching for Holy Relics all over the world to prepare for the next Holy Grail War. With your help looking after my parents and Sakura, I can be more at ease. Moreover, Touko, as a Grand Magus, now that your sealing designation is lifted, if you're willing, any family would be eager to recruit you!"

Touko slowly lit a cigarette and then saw Kallian frowning. She smiled sheepishly and extinguished the cigarette.

Aoko looked at her sister, stood up, and came behind Touko, patting Touko on the back.

"Touko, what are you hesitating about? Aren't you going to participate in the Holy Grail War anyway, so it's good to prepare in advance? Plus, there's a decent salary. It makes me want to go too. Rin, how about I become a consultant for your family too?"

Knowing that Aoko was a free spirit who would never be tied down, Rin ignored Aoko's joke and stared at Touko.

"Touko, at most 10 years. Although I don't know the exact start date of the next Holy Grail War, with the current sealing status, it definitely won't last 10 years. You can check it yourself then. Touko, I promise you that after the Holy Grail War ends, no matter how many years are left on the contract, you can leave anytime you wish."

Although she had good compatibility with Rin, Touko absolutely did not want to be bound forever. However, after receiving Rin's promise, Touko readily signed the contract. For Touko, who was almost immortal, 10 years was easily bearable.

Rin took the contract with Touko's name on it and happily hugged Touko, giving her a peck on the cheek.

"YES! Alright, now for Fujino's issue. Fujino, are you planning to continue studying at the Girls' Academy of the Church, or do you plan to give up your studies and return with me to focus on Magecraft?"

"I'll return with you, Master!" Fujino replied decisively!

"Alright, Fujino, you can go back and pack your luggage now. I'll ask Kirei to buy our train tickets for tonight later."

Outside the Grand Hotel in Kanfushi City.

Rin, having finished their final gathering, was waving goodbye to Arisu, Fujino, Da Vinci, Kallian, Shirou Emiya, Aoko, and Touko.

"Touko, remember to quickly sort out Ryougi Shiki's matters. I'll be waiting for you in Fuyuki City. Aoko, you're always welcome to visit Fuyuki City!"

"Alright, I got it, Rin. You've already said it 'a hundred' times at dinner!"

After parting ways with Touko and Aoko, Rin, with a sense of reluctance, walked with everyone to the Shinkansen station not far from the hotel. Seeing Shirou Emiya, who was already waiting there with luggage, Rin finally calmed down and embarked on the journey home with everyone.

It was already past 9 PM when everyone arrived in Fuyuki City. As Rin walked out of the station, she looked at the familiar streets and buildings and couldn't help but shout.

"Fuyuki City! I, Rin Tohsaka, am back."

Kallian, covering her mouth and giggling, walked to Rin's side and took out a bracelet, handing it to Rin.

"Sister Rin, Shiro and I got this from a famous temple in Kanfushi City. Thank you for taking care of us during this time."

Rin took the bracelet and scratched her head sheepishly. She hadn't really taken care of Kallian and Shirou; in Kanfushi City, Arisu had taken care of them for most of the time, and later Fujino took over.

Shirou Emiya walked up, put down Rin and the others' luggage, took Kallian's small hand, and nodded at Rin.

"Alright, Kallian, it's getting late. We'll head back to the Church first. You can visit Rin's home when you have time. Rin, we'll be returning to the Church now."

"Yes, Kirei. Thank you for your trouble during this time."

Tohsaka Estate.

Ever since the family purchased electronic devices, Tokiomi Tohsaka had become obsessed with television. At this moment, Tokiomi Tohsaka was leading Sakura and Aoi Tohsaka in the living room, watching a TV drama. However, unlike Tokiomi Tohsaka, who was intently analyzing the drama's plot with Aoi Tohsaka.

Sakura kept looking out the window with a worried expression. When she subconsciously looked out the window again.

"Sister?"

Following Sakura's exclamation, Tokiomi Tohsaka and Aoi Tohsaka, who were engrossed in the drama, also turned their heads. "Rin!" X2

Rin entered the courtyard with everyone and opened the door to the mansion.

Tokiomi Tohsaka, who had already discovered Rin, was preparing a surprise for Rin with Aoi Tohsaka and Sakura. Seeing Rin, who was stunned at the open door, he smiled and said to Rin.

"Welcome home, Rin - Little Rin - Sister!"

Seeing this scene, Rin's nose felt a little sore. Excitedly, she dropped her luggage and jumped into Aoi Tohsaka's arms, shouting.

"I'm back, Mom and Dad, Sakura..."

Section 55: Rin Tohsaka's Trip to the Clock Tower - Morning

Rin Tohsaka's room.

Rin was fast asleep in her bed, her messy long hair spread across the pillow. The corner of her blanket had been kicked up, exposing her fair stomach to the air. Feeling a slight chill in her sleep, Rin subconsciously covered her belly with her small hand.

The door to Rin's room was quietly opened, and Sakura peeked her head into Rin's room. Seeing Rin fast asleep, she pushed the door open and walked in, carefully locking it. She then came to the bedside of the sleeping Rin, cupped her face, and stared at Rin without moving.

"My sister, even when she's fast asleep, is so cute..."

At that moment, the sound of a doorknob turning came from the door. The person outside seemed to discover that the door was locked from the inside and clicked their tongue in annoyance.

Hearing this sound, Sakura couldn't help but frown, seemingly knowing who the visitor was. Sure enough, a moment later, the door lock twisted, and the visitor was Fujino Asagami.

After using her Mystic Eyes to unlock the door, Fujino gently pushed it open and entered Rin's room. Her eyes lit up upon seeing Rin sleeping, but then, upon noticing Sakura was also there, Fujino's expression instantly soured.

Five years had passed since the Kara no Kyoukai incident, and it was now July 2003. In the five years since becoming Rin's disciple, Fujino had become deeply infatuated with Rin. She often clashed with Sakura over Rin, and Sakura, in turn, disliked this disciple Rin had taken in five years ago. Sakura even felt that Fujino intended to compete with her for their sister's affection, as Fujino was always clinging to Rin.

Seeing Fujino forcefully breaking the door lock and disturbing her and her sister's 'time together,' Sakura stepped forward to block Fujino's view of Rin. Then, suppressing her anger, she spoke to Fujino in a low voice.

"Fujino, what are you doing in Rin's room so early in the morning? You even broke the door lock."

Fujino looked at the angry Sakura, a mocking smile on her lips. A magic circle lit up in her hand as she placed it on the doorknob. As the magic took effect, the door lock was magically repaired. Fujino then walked in front of Sakura, pushed her aside, and stared excitedly at Rin.

"Did I break the door lock?"

"Fujino Asagami! Close your eyes! I won't allow you to look at my sister!"

After saying this, seeing Fujino still staring at Rin, Sakura became somewhat exasperated. She grabbed Fujino's clothes and pulled back forcefully, trying to drive Fujino out of Rin's room. Pulled by Sakura's sudden tug, Fujino lost her balance. As she fell towards the ground, Fujino reached out, grabbed Sakura's hand, and pulled her forcefully as well, causing Sakura to lose her balance. Thus, Sakura and Fujino tumbled to the ground, rolling into a heap.

Rin, startled by the sound of Sakura and Fujino falling, sat up and looked towards the source of the noise.

At that moment, Sakura and Fujino, who were on the ground pinching each other's faces, simultaneously and awkwardly released their grips. They looked at each other with awkward smiles and then turned towards Rin on the bed, saying, "Good morning, Sister, Master!"

Having just returned home late last night from a trip to find holy relics, Rin's eye twitched as she looked at her sister and disciple embracing on the floor. She stiffly turned her head, then flopped back onto the bed, burying her head under the covers, and muttered to herself.

"I must still be dreaming. I'm not awake yet. Fujino and Sakura couldn't possibly be like this..."

Sakura and Fujino released each other and got up from the floor, looking awkwardly at Rin, who was pretending to be a turtle under the covers.

Sakura, who had been dependent on Rin since childhood, was perceived by everyone as a timid, quiet child, the "good kid next door" – gentle, kind, cute, and reliable in critical moments. These were Sakura's labels. However, Fujino knew these were just facades. When it came to Rin, Sakura was fiercely possessive.

Since becoming Rin's disciple, Fujino had always presented herself publicly as ladylike, polite, gentle, and strong. But Sakura knew how "bitchy" and pathological Fujino could be when it concerned Rin. In the years they had spent together, Sakura had discovered Fujino privately hoarding Rin's personal belongings multiple times. Furthermore, Fujino harbored hostility towards anyone close to Rin and constantly tried to damage their image in Rin's eyes.

Rin's absence for several months to search for holy relics had led the often-separated Sakura and Fujino to take a risk, inadvertently exposing their other sides to Rin.

Sakura and Fujino, seeing Rin still buried under the covers, exchanged a cold snort and left Rin's room together, hoping Rin would truly believe what had just happened was a dream.

At 10:30 AM, Rin groggily got out of bed, casually pulled back the curtains, felt the warm sunlight outside, and stretched lazily.

Rin slowly finished her morning routine and tidied her hair. It was already 11:40 AM. Following the scent of food, Rin walked to the kitchen entrance and saw Sakura and Fujino cheerfully preparing lunch under the guidance of Aoi Tohsaka. She nodded.

"I knew it. How could Sakura and Fujino be fighting in my room? It really was a dream!"

Sakura and Fujino, who were helping Aoi Tohsaka prepare lunch in the kitchen, also noticed Rin's arrival. Nervous, they anxiously awaited Rin's 'judgment.' When they heard Rin dismiss the morning's events as a dream, they finally relaxed.

Aoi Tohsaka, who was stir-frying, finally noticed Rin. Having not seen her daughter for months, Aoi Tohsaka also missed her dearly. She gave Fujino an apologetic look and handed the spatula in her hand to Fujino.

"Please, Fujino, could you help me for a moment?"

Fujino obediently took the spatula and said to Aoi Tohsaka with a smile.

"Auntie, please go and spend time with Master. You haven't seen her in months, and she must miss you very much. Leave this to Sakura and me, right Sakura?"

Sakura, who had intended to find Rin with her mother, could only nod reluctantly at Fujino's words, tacitly agreeing with her statement.

Aoi Tohsaka, taking off her apron, came to the kitchen entrance, took Rin's hand, and started asking about Rin's recent activities as they walked towards the living room.

Rin smiled happily as Aoi Tohsaka chattered on beside her. Looking at Aoi Tohsaka, who now had a few wrinkles, Rin suddenly realized she had been in this family for almost 17 years. Her gentle and lovely mother from her childhood was now starting to age.

Rin secretly made a resolution in her heart, 'Once I'm done with this Holy Grail War, I'll definitely take over as head of the family, and then we'll all go to England together. That way, we'll never be separated again. I'll leave the ley lines of Fuyuki City to Touko.'

In the living room, Touko was discussing recent news from the mage world with Tokiomi Tohsaka. Seeing Aoi Tohsaka enter the living room holding Rin's hand, Touko and Tokiomi Tohsaka stopped their conversation and turned to look at Rin.

"Rin, when did you get back?"

"Dad, I rushed back to Fuyuki City yesterday after receiving the message from Touko. I arrived home around 3 AM last night."

Section 56: Rin Tohsaka's Trip to the Clock Tower - Arrival in London.

Just yesterday, Rin was at a ruin in the Middle East, directing excavation work, when she suddenly received a call from Touko. Listening to what Touko said on the phone, Rin Tohsaka hastily dismissed the workers.

After all the workers were sent away, Rin, with the help of Kaikiri Leshith, contacted a helicopter and flew to Russia, braving the risk of being shot down by anti-aircraft fire. Then, using Magecraft, she hypnotized airport staff and flew back to Fuyuki City from Russia.

The message Touko had conveyed was an invitation from the Clock Tower's Astronomy Department's Lord, Marisbury Animusphere, inviting Rin to his home. The mention of "Chaldea" was the reason for Rin's haste.

After explaining the reason for her return last night to Tokiomi Tohsaka, Rin took the invitation from Touko's hand. After carefully reviewing it, she handed it to Tokiomi Tohsaka, who was occasionally glancing at the invitation in her hand.

Aoi Tohsaka, hearing Rin and Tokiomi Tohsaka start discussing mage world matters again, and also learning that Rin would be traveling again, felt both helpless and sad. She could only sit by the side blankly.

Rin also keenly noticed Aoi Tohsaka's low spirits. She reached out, took Aoi Tohsaka's hand, and turned to give her mother a reassuring look.

"It's okay, Mom. As long as I finish dealing with things during this period, we'll never be separated again."

Aoi Tohsaka looked at the grown Rin and reached out to touch her cheek.

"Rin, you've grown up. Go do what you want to do. Mom is just a little sad. Mom absolutely doesn't want to be a burden to you."

"Mom, you're absolutely not a burden to me. I've been able to persevere until today because of your support. Don't worry, Mom. Once the Holy Grail War is over, we'll live happily together."

At this moment, Tokiomi Tohsaka, who had been diligently studying the invitation in his hand, looked up in surprise at Rin.

"Rin, the Holy Grail War? Isn't the Holy Grail War held once every 60 years?"

"Dad, you know, the Holy Grail is broken. According to my investigation, the next Holy Grail War will start at the latest next year. I won't tell you more about the specifics."

"Rin, do you have confidence?"

Rin patted her chest and proudly tilted her head up.

"Of course, Dad!"

A few days later, on the plane from Fuyuki City to London.

Rin looked at Fujino and Sakura, who had secretly followed her, with a headache.

"Did you two tell Mom and Dad?"

"Sister, we left a note!" Fujino nodded in agreement.
