Completely Satisfied / Lonely Aira?

Seeing the amused looks in Mikaela and Irisviel's eyes, Emiya Kiritsugu coughed a few times and said in a serious tone, "Anyway, I plan to become a light novelist and manga artist. I have started to study and research these past few months. After several months of research, I think I can debut in about a year."

"If I debut, then the end of True Magic girls will be near."

Emiya Kiritsugu said in a rather fierce tone that he would never forget the time he told Illya his story from back then.

Illya shouted in great dissatisfaction, "Kiritsugu's story isn't interesting at all! I'm going to watch True Magic Girl!!"

As a doting father, Emiya Kiritsugu devastated by what he suffered – it was like being pierced by a thousand arrows! It was truly tragic.

"Then good luck." Mikaela chuckled and could only wish Emiya Kiritsugu the best. After all, he was an old man, and it didn't seem very realistic for him to be thinking about drawing manga and writing light novels.

However, since Emiya Kiritsugu said that his body was too weak, Mikaela crushed the card in her hand, took out the Dandelion of the Yingcao, and gave him a green light, and said with a light laugh, "Then I wish you a safe journey. If you encounter any danger, remember to call me. You have already memorized my phone number."

"If I need your help, I certainly won't hesitate to ask." Emiya Kiritsugu smiled, picked up his luggage, and led Irisviel down the stairs.

Mikaela pushed open Ryougi Shiki door to Asagami Fujino's room. The two of them seemed to be packing their things, since the Holy Grail War was over and they had no reason to stay here.

"Would you like to have a spar?" Mikaela looked at Ryougi Shiki. He knew what the other party's purpose was, so he didn't hold back anymore.

"..."

Ryougi Shiki seemed somewhat surprised, but soon she smiled, drew the dagger from her back, activated her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, and said to Mikaela, "Don't hold back."

"Of course, I certainly won't hold back against you. After all, holding back would be the greatest insult to you."

Mikaela switched to Valkyrie Spirit Origin and walked downstairs.

PS: "Second update, three more to come~ Five updates tonight."

Chapter 249 Contentment (Third Update)

The battle didn't last long, because if even Bazett couldn't beat Ryougi Shiki, how could she possibly beat Mikaela?

However, Ryougi Shiki had already guessed the outcome, but she herself didn't feel much about the defeat; instead, she showed a rather bright smile.

To be honest, when Mikaela saw Ryougi Shiki's smile, she was momentarily captivated by the charm she exuded, since the other woman had always kept a cold expression and rarely showed any emotional fluctuations.

Now, when she smiles, anyone who has spent even a short time with her would be shocked.

"Are you also planning to leave today?" Mikaela, sitting on the Ryougi Shiki bed. Both of them had already packed their luggage.

"It's all over now." Ryougi Shiki folded up her underwear and put it in the box. She looked at Mikaela calmly and said, "I came here to fight you. I've achieved that goal, so I have no other purpose. When I get back, I'll have to take on all sorts of strange missions."

To be honest, Ryougi Shiki felt that she hadn't done anything in this Holy Grail War, and it was like she was just on vacation.

Whether it was because Mikaela's arrangements were too good or because their own side was too strong, Ryougi Shiki felt that apart from witnessing the power of the Servant, she didn't really feel that the enemy's strength was that great.

It's pretty much like this: get up in the morning for a run, then eat, rest, take a walk, fight with Bazett, take a shower, and go to sleep.

As for the Servant 'activities' at night? She has virtually no say in those 'activities'.

After packing Ryougi Shiki things, Ryougi Shiki stood her suitcase upright and put away the knife. She looked at Asagami Fujino, who was still sitting on the bed and looked very well-behaved, and said with a light smile, "However, you can spend some time with Fujino. I'm going to go for a walk outside."

After saying that, Ryougi Shiki walked out of the room and closed the door behind her.

The room fell silent. Asagami Fujino stared at Mikaela's figure without saying a word.

However, Mikaela wasn't one to keep quiet. He looked at Asagami Fujino and said gently, "Is there something troubling you?"

Even though the Holy Grail War was over, Mikaela still didn't know why Asagami Fujino had come with Ryougi Shiki.

As for the 'love' that Kiyohime mentioned earlier? Just take that with a grain of salt. Mikaela is a rational person and naturally knows that the three great illusions of life cannot happen to her or Asagami Fujino.

When it comes to love, Mikaela only knows about paternal and maternal love, because that's what he has truly experienced.

But when it comes to love... he has never experienced it, neither in his past life nor his previous one.

He didn't understand what love was. According to other people's descriptions, love is the feeling of being moved, the feeling of giving everything for others, even if you know there is no way out, as long as there is a glimmer of light, love will not make you stop.

This applies to both men and women.

However, Mikaela lived only for herself, so she didn't understand 'love', nor did she comprehend the tragic love story between Sigurd and Brynhildr.

"Mmm." Asagami Fujino nodded, clutching her chest, and looked at Mikaela softly, saying, "I don't know why, but after sleeping with you one night, I kept seeing you and then sleeping with you again."

If it were an ordinary man, he would probably be blushing and his heart would be pounding right now, thinking, "This won't do!" And secretly wishing the other person would take the initiative so that he could put his mind at ease.

However, Mikaela didn't seem to have that feeling. He naturally took off his shoes, revealing his feet wrapped in black and white stockings. Mikaela sat down next to Asagami Fujino and calmly said, "Want to experience it again?"

"Hmm." Asagami Fujino wasn't too surprised by Mikaela's bold move. She seemed quite excited about what was about to happen. She quickly drew the curtains, plunging the room into darkness.

At this moment, Mikaela also took off her maid outfit, revealing that she was wearing thermal underwear underneath.

Seemingly in response to Asagami Fujino, Mikaela pointed to her legs and calmly asked, "Should I take off my stockings?"

"No, no need, this is fine." Asagami Fujino took off her everyday clothes, leaving only her underwear, and then crawled into the quilt.

Mikaela also opened the blanket and crawled into bed, but the moment he entered the bed, he could feel the body temperature of Asagami Fujino.

After all, this bed is a single bed and not as big as you might imagine. When two people lie on the same bed, they can definitely feel each other's body temperature.

Asagami Fujino slightly. She was not a true cold beauty, so she naturally felt shy in a situation where they could feel each other's body temperature.

However, Mikaela was different. He didn't even blush, let alone show any change in expression, as if this was perfectly normal.

Goodnight.

As if she had already entered a state of mind, Mikaela closed her eyes, lay down on the small bed, and slowly drifted off to sleep.

"Hmm... Goodnight." Asagami Fujino seemed a little disappointed, but she quickly composed herself, lay down on the bed, and slowly closed her eyes.

However, Asagami Fujino didn't have the same composure as Mikaela. She slowly opened her eyes like a thief, looking at Mikaela's pretty face.

"..."

Looking at the other person's face, Asagami Fujino recalled her childhood self, where she was never afraid of anything.

Because she cannot feel 'pain' or understand what 'pain' means, her mother would only hug her and keep asking her if it hurts when the red 'dye' flowed out.

Now she understands what pain is, but she still feels a sense of confusion.

Mikaela slowly opened his eyes, his black pearl-like eyes looking at Asagami Fujino, and said in a very calm tone, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

Asagami Fujino looked into Mikaela's eyes, which were like black pearls, and the image of Mikaela not having recovered from her injuries flashed through her mind.

The other person's eyes were lifeless at that time, just like mine, and they couldn't feel any pain.

But now... they have all healed their injuries and can live like ordinary people.

At this moment Asagami Fujino seemed to understand why she had come to find Mikaela. It wasn't the love that Kiyohime had mentioned, but rather a kind of 'concern'.

She wanted to know if the other person was alright, if their injuries had healed smoothly, and whether they would be ridiculed for their eye condition while alone outside.

"Okay, I'll sleep for a while longer."

At this moment, Asagami Fujino finally understood what the confusing emotions in her heart were.

PS: "Ahem, this is the third update. There are still two more to go. Although I want to update as soon as possible, this chapter has really gotten me stuck."

P. S.: "I definitely didn't watch anime while writing ( )"

Chapter 250 Lonely Ella? (Fourth Update)

In reality, it was impossible for her to actually sleep. After lying down for a while, Asagami Fujino her own, put on her clothes, and said in a very gentle tone, "Excuse me."

"It seems everything is alright now." Mikaela also put on a maid outfit, and looked at Asagami Fujino with some curiosity, asking, "Do you understand your situation?"

"I'm starting to understand."

Asagami Fujino to Mikaela, picked up his little leather shoes, and said gently, "Would you like me to help you put on your shoes?"

"..."

Suddenly, Mikaela felt that it would be better for Asagami Fujino not to untangle her 'heart knot'. What did she mean by that?

Why does Mikaela have such a strong sense of déjà vu? It's like I overslept, and my mom came over with clothes, quickly dressed me, and then gave me socks and shoes so I could sit obediently on the bed with just my legs out.

In that instant of hesitation, Asagami Fujino grasped Mikaela's delicate foot.

The moment she grasped it, the word 'so small' flashed through Asagami Fujino's mind.

"..." Mikaela pulled his leg back and said calmly, "I'm not used to having shoes put on me, sorry."

"Ah." A hint of disappointment flashed in Asagami Fujino's eyes as she looked at Mikaela and asked, "Can I help you comb your hair?"

"No."

Mikaela shook his head slightly, looking at Asagami Fujino with great determination, and said, "I don't like others combing my hair. This is the last proof my parents left me, I..."

"I'm sorry, I overreacted a bit."

Seeing the disappointed look on Asagami Fujino's face, Mikaela's expression softened. He let his hair fall over his chest, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.

"My body changes constantly with my transformation, but my hair never changes." Mikaela played with her black and white hair, and said with a hint of self-mockery, "Black hair represents my father, and white hair represents my mother. They are no longer in this world, but the only thing they left me is this hair."

Mikaela's strongest trump card is his ability to transform into other powerful figures, but each transformation alters his physical constitution.

His body is now in the same situation. With countless transformations, his height has decreased from 1.78 meters to 1.65 meters, which is a very serious reduction.

Now, after fusing with the Valkyrie Spirit Origin, this is even more true. As long as Mikaela stands still and doesn't speak, he himself will be accompanied by an inexplicable sense of holiness, as if a goddess has descended to earth.

The price of gaining great power is changing oneself, which was something that Mikaela used to not care about at all.

But now, in the Type-Moon World, especially in these three years, although Mikaela's strength has been slowly increasing, his heart is always filled with emptiness.

He missed that home, that warm little home.

Therefore, Mikaela did not want anyone to touch her hair, because it was not just her hair, but her black and white hair, which carried her longing for her parents.

Everything was changing, except for his hair; Mikaela didn't want it to change at all.

"I'm sorry, I was rude." After hearing what Mikaela said, Asagami Fujino also realized that she had gone too far. She said apologetically, "I just wanted to do something for you before I left."

After putting on the maid outfit, Mikaela casually took the shoes from Asagami Fujino and put them on herself, saying calmly, "Thank you, I appreciate the thought, but I can do such a small thing myself."

"Are you coming back to Japan with us?"

Asagami Fujino looked at Mikaela and continued, "If you want to go back together, it's not too late to book tickets now."

"No, I have to go to London." Mikaela shook her head slightly. She would return to Japan, but not now, because she had to see Waver and Marisbury Animsphere.

He owes Waver and Marisbury a favor.

Therefore, he does not plan to return to Japan now, but instead plans to return to the Clock Tower with Bazett first.

"I see." Asagami Fujino seemed somewhat disappointed.

However, at that moment, a knock came at the door, and Ryougi Shiki's voice came from outside. "It's almost time to finish. We need to get to the airport as soon as possible."

"Mm," Mikaela replied, then put on his shoes and walked toward the door.

"Crunch."

The door opened, Ryougi Shiki leaned against the wall. She looked at Mikaela and Asagami Fujino. She didn't say much, but patted Mikaela on the shoulder and said, "Fujino is very good. She works very hard."

"I know." Mikaela glanced at Ryougi Shiki, then stepped out and walked towards Bazett's room.

"Ugh, this is such a hassle."

Ryougi Shiki shook her head, then looked at Asagami Fujino and asked, "Are you sure about your feelings?"

Perhaps influenced by Kiyohime's brainwashing-like dialogue, Ryougi Shiki began to wonder if Asagami Fujino might actually like Mikaela, which was why she had traveled so far to find her.

"Hmm." Asagami Fujino nodded slightly, her tone somewhat complicated. "I want to protect him. Although he seems very strong, the emotions he just showed... clearly indicate that he wants to be protected by others."

"Protection? He's much stronger than us, he doesn't need any protection."

Ryougi Shiki shrugged. She had come to realize these past few days that someone like Mikaela was truly as powerful as a monster.

Before the opponent even made a move, Ryougi Shiki knew she was doomed to lose.

"Not that kind of powerful." Asagami Fujino placed her hand on the blanket, seemingly feeling the warmth left by Mikaela's body. She said softly, "He longed for someone to truly enter his heart and protect him. That feeling... was like when I was about to be bullied by bad guys, he appeared in front of me like a god descending to earth and decisively killed those people."

"At that time, I could feel that he was different from ordinary people, and his back view was exactly the same as it is now, looking very lonely."

"Why do I feel like you're his mother?"

Ryougi Shiki scratched her head, a hint of speechlessness appearing on her rather indifferent face. She looked at Asagami Fujino and said, "If you want to protect him, then you should open your eyes more."

"But if you want to take care of him... you should take care of yourself first."

"Yes." Asagami Fujino stood up, straightened her clothes, picked up the suitcase next to her, and smiled at Ryougi Shiki, "I will do my best."

"Ducks, ducks, what a troublesome relationship. Luckily, I don't think about these things." Ryougi Shiki casually picked up the suitcase next to her and said loudly to the next room, "We're leaving now. Come visit Garan no Dou no Do sometime."
