“Even so, what does it matter?” Morgan asked. “Are you afraid?”

“Stop doing things like this just to spite Artoria,” Shirou said. “You’re acting like a child.”

“You...!”

Morgan’s face twisted with anger.

It was the first time anyone had ever called her childish.

Even if it were true, no one would normally dare say such a thing to the Fairy Queen.

In the past, the witch would have torn anyone who spoke to her that way to pieces.

Part of the reason was that Morgan, like the Lion King, had lived for fifteen hundred years, and her mentality had matured.

The other reason, of course, was that she was extremely fond of Shirou. That was why she tolerated his words.

So... this brat really doesn’t take me seriously, Morgan thought, narrowing her eyes.

It was also clear by now that Shirou would not treat her as a substitute for the other Morgan.

Regrettably, he seemed to have no interest in her at all...

“Anyway... I believe now that you really do like me, Miss Morgan,” Shirou said awkwardly.

“I’m sorry I doubted you before.

“And I owe you a huge favor after this. If there’s anything I can do to repay you...”

“Repay me...?” Morgan prompted, her voice trembling. “How do you intend to do that?”

Shirou’s cheeks reddened slightly.

“I can’t give you an answer right away, but we could start as friends.”

“............”

The Fairy Queen blinked and stared at Shirou’s earnest face for a few seconds—then her wounded expression gave way to laughter.

“Pfft... Hahahaha! Hahahahahaha!

“You actually want to start as friends... Shirou! Do you think I’m some girl at your school?”

“Sorry. That wasn’t what I meant.”

Morgan laughed
