She had not yet reached the point of fighting the other side to the death because they had not actually tried to kill anyone in Shinto.
Since no one had been killed, there was still room to negotiate.
"That's true. It would indeed be bad if this 'Pure Land' were destroyed again."
Medea understood another aspect of the situation.
"I understand. I will stop."
"Saber, let's end it here for today."
"...Mm."
The sharp edge of Artoria's sword faded as well.
[??? They're just stopping the fight?]
[Stopping is the right call. Only Caster Medea can purify the Grail.]
[Morgan Shirou can do it too, right?]
[Don't really treat Morgan Shirou like Shirou. She's still a child; she doesn't have that much knowledge.]
[So Caster Medea really is the only suitable one?]
[Fuck, the Original Work's secret got exposed this quickly. Are they seriously going to go big later?]
[Are they really going to fight Beasts in the end?]
[I'd rather they take a lesson from FSF and do another round, 233.]
[Summoning a second batch of Servants based on the original canon is actually possible. The Greater Grail for the Holy Grail War is Fuyuki's Grail, so it can absolutely summon two groups of Servants. The only problem is that there aren't enough Masters, 233.]
And just like that, the battle ended with a whimper.

For a while, the atmosphere was extremely awkward.
"You're back?"
Rin had returned ahead of them and was sitting in the living room drinking tea.
Sakura was preparing a late-night snack.
"—You two?"
Rin immediately noticed that something was wrong
