Lemon Head!

Fu Yuan looked somewhat bewildered when he heard those three words. After thinking for a long time, he finally remembered that they were the currency of the system that had caused him to transmigrate.

"This thing actually has other uses besides recovering memories!"

When he thought of the hundreds of millions of Destiny Points he had saved up, Fu Yuan felt as though he had discovered a treasure mine.

After all, that system only had one function: collecting Destiny Points. Look, this was what his status panel looked like.

Host: Fu Yuan

Destiny Points: 233333333

And that was it. That was all there was!

He had figured out how Destiny Points increased entirely on his own.

Fu Yuan had once despaired over that system. It was not as if he had extraordinary talent—how else could there have been everything that came afterward?

"Destiny is truly interesting." Su Mei had always been deeply curious about the system. After all, Junior Disciple Brother had previously recovered his memories through those Destiny Points.

Even Yu Du Chen could not burn away something like that.

Well, she had been the one to suggest that method. Then, amid that chaotic destiny, their memories had become interconnected, and they still had not recovered.

"Also, don't overthink it. So far, I've only figured out these few functions."

Su Mei suddenly spoke up, interrupting Fu Yuan's fantasies. Even she felt a little distressed looking at those hundreds of millions of Destiny Points!

Although Fu Yuan was somewhat disappointed upon hearing that, it was nothing much. After all, he truly had no expectations for that useless system.

Even recovering memories had merely used Destiny Points as a medium. Not a single Destiny Point had been consumed.

It could be said that they and everyone else had developed all those extra functions themselves. They had nothing to do with the system!

Having settled that matter, Fu Yuan began looking downstairs with a headache, preparing to face reality. He could not possibly believe that "escaping might be shameful, but it was useful," right?

"What can they even say about buying gold and getting purple for free? Shouldn't they be secretly delighted?"

Su Mei did not care about what those people downstairs thought. In her eyes, they should have been quietly celebrating such good fortune.

Fu Yuan fell silent for an unusually long time before finally speaking his mind.

"Senior Sister, you think you deserve to be called purple?"

"Mm~ That hurt!"

The hall of Einsbern Castle was exceptionally quiet. Several pieces of news brought by Little Illya had greatly shocked everyone present.

Especially the unfamiliar woman holding Saber!

"Kiritsugu, A Yuan still hasn't come down. He might be busy with something. I'll go call him!"

Irisviel finally could not hold herself back and prepared to go upstairs to take a look.

Kiritsugu Emiya froze for a moment, then suddenly laughed and hurriedly tried to stop her.

"No need, Iris."

"Saber said she caught a disease where she would die if she went outside."

"So he needs the duration of a meal to treat it."

Before he could even finish, Kiritsugu burst into an unrestrained laugh.

As though some kind of switch had been flipped, the adults present all began laughing as well.

Only the two little ones were left looking utterly confused.

Lemon Head!

"What are you looking at? Never seen a Heroic Spirit before?"

In the living room, Fu Yuan faced their stares with great discomfort. He felt that their gazes were even more terrifying than the ones he had received on the street earlier.

"I have~ seen one, but..."

Kiritsugu Emiya carefully chose his words, trying to make the Saber across from him even more embarrassed.

"Ahem, it's nothing."

Seeing a fiery red greatsword materialize in Fu Yuan's hand, Kiritsugu Emiya swiftly tried to remedy the situation. Even though anyone could tell that he was still laughing.

"You're still laughing!"

Fu Yuan's expression instantly collapsed. He silently replaced the Heavenly Fire Self-Destruction in his hand with Unparalleled, his eyes hollow as he spoke without a trace of emotion.

"I've decided. I'll use this Yin Yang Sword to turn an unfaithful Master into a Yin Yang person!"

"No need to thank me, Iris. It's simply what I should do."

After a bout of magecraft combat in the castle, Kiritsugu Emiya ultimately... did not become a Yin Yang person.

Fu Yuan ate the meal specially left for him at the table with puffed cheeks, still completely unappeased.

If it weren't for this meal, Master would already be an ancient civil servant from an Eastern country!

Irisviel rested both hands on the table, propping her head up as she quietly watched A Yuan eat.

The atmosphere at the dining table was exceptionally harmonious, as though this was how things were meant to be.

So cute! I really want to pinch him!

He's like a hamster!

The smile on Kiritsugu Emiya's face vanished completely when he saw that scene. He could not shake the feeling that something was wrong.

He sharply inhaled, then decided to speak up and interrupt that warm atmosphere.

"Ahem! Um, Saber, that... unfamiliar lady is...?"

After Kiritsugu Emiya spoke, Fu Yuan removed the Suggestion Sorcery from him.

Then, the warm atmosphere vanished. Although Irisviel's eyes still shone with maternal affection, that unsettling feeling from before was completely gone.

The magecraft was not particularly advanced, and the technique was not especially skillful, but under certain circumstances, it was indeed easy to make it work.

Seeing Kiritsugu Emiya's dumbfounded expression, Fu Yuan felt that the remaining food somehow tasted even better than before.

When Kariya Matou saw Fu Yuan remove the Suggestion Sorcery, realization dawned on him. No wonder he had felt that something was off!

Asagami Fujino watched them battle wits without any expression on her face.

She recalled how, at the hospital yesterday, they had educated her about the darkness of the Mage's World and the various evil deeds of magi. At the time, they had given her the impression that no magus was a good person.

They had successfully shattered Fujino's lofty, cold image of magi. Ah, it felt like she would never believe anything they said again.

Asagami Fujino expressionlessly returned to her room, preparing to study the magecraft she had just learned.

After Fu Yuan swallowed his final bite, Kiritsugu Emiya suppressed the embarrassment in his heart and asked his question again.

The others who were still present all perked up their ears. They were curious too!

"Buy gold and get purple for free. Look it up."

Everyone: ???

Gacha games had not become popular yet, so they obviously did not understand what he meant.

"...My Senior Sister."

Seeing that, Fu Yuan immediately felt helpless. How had those predecessors who transmigrated into ancient times managed to live happily?

"I see."

Kariya Matou nodded as though he understood, even though he still had no idea how Saber's Senior Sister had gotten here.

"..."

Kiritsugu Emiya wanted to say "M2P," but felt that would not be very polite. So what was the difference between saying that and saying nothing? And Kariya Matou, what were you joining in for?

Was that what I wanted to know? What I wanted to know was how she got here, what she could do, and what abilities she had. Do you understand, bastard?!

Irisviel seemed to understand a little, but she had not thought as much as the other two, so she directly asked.

"How did A Yuan's Senior Sister get here?"

Fu Yuan fell silent for a long time before finally answering the question, though he truly did not want to answer such an idiotic question.

"When I took on a master, I was the youngest. Senior Sister entered the sect before me."

"..."

Kiritsugu Emiya felt that he no longer had the strength to complain. Did that even need to be said?!

Even Kariya Matou's mouth twitched.

Irisviel nodded in confusion. So that was the question she had asked?

"Then what is the principle behind Saber's Senior Sister appearing?"

Taking Fu Yuan's clear thought process into consideration, Kiritsugu Emiya carefully phrased his question, though it still sounded somewhat inappropriate.

"I don't know."

Fu Yuan wanted to know how Su Mei had manifested too!

"...Then what can your Senior Sister do?"

For some reason, Kiritsugu Emiya suddenly felt mentally exhausted. He simply skipped the boring nonsense and went straight to the point.

"...Probably, maybe, perhaps, she can only hold me while sleeping?"

Fu Yuan thought for a long time before giving a rather uncertain answer.

"..."

"Then why did your Senior Sister come out now?"

Kiritsugu Emiya did his best to suppress the urge to flip the table, comforting himself with the thought that perhaps his Senior Sister was an intelligence-type player!

"To hold me while sleeping!"

Fu Yuan looked confused. Why would Master ask such a question? Had he not said so already?

"..."

He was numb.

What kind of person was this?

At that moment, Kiritsugu Emiya had no idea what to say.

But there was one thing he could be sure of: he really wanted to meet whoever had taught such a disciple. What kind of people were they?!

Could you people do something even remotely human?!

Kaineth's group headed purposefully toward the houses around the city, eventually stopping in front of a farmhouse that kept chickens.

Kaineth's expression was clearly unpleasant. He had never expected that, as his student's base of operations, this place would not even have a magecraft workshop.

Other than some low-level warning magecraft, there was nothing else.

That made him question whether his decision to seek an alliance with this fool had been right or wrong.

When Kaineth had first discovered that something was wrong with this rural ritual, he had used his authority to look through all the materials related to the Holy Grail War.

Then his mindset collapsed!

What the hell was all this?! The legendary Third Magic! The witness of the holder of the Second Magic! And the Holy Church's full supervision!

The participants were no simple figures either! The Einzbern Family, renowned throughout the Mage's World; the family of the Agent of Justice who had once been in the limelight two hundred years ago; even the most ordinary Tohsaka Family had an unclear relationship with the Holy Church.

Although Kaineth still believed that his magecraft talent was the greatest, he had decided to find an ally.

After all, he was afraid the other side would not fight fairly.

The countless thoughts flashing through his mind did not make him retreat in the slightest. After all, for this war, he had made an exception and used technology. That was also why he had been able to find the location of that traitorous disciple so quickly.

Diarmuid tactfully stepped forward to knock on the door. He did not find the task unpleasant in any way.

After a while, an old woman opened the door. Looking at the clearly extraordinary group standing outside, a trace of confusion flashed through her eyes.

"Who are you looking for?"
