Matou Family!
When Sakura returned from school and saw the note Duke had left behind, she immediately became somewhat dejected. After ten years of being alone, she desperately longed for Duke's care.
Rider stood nearby and sighed. She had witnessed Sakura's every move, and Sakura's attachment to Duke was growing stronger and stronger. This was not a good sign. Having seen hope in the depths of despair, the girl might misjudge her own feelings.
Rider understood Sakura's personality very well. Even though they had not spent much time together, she could tell Sakura was an extremely stubborn person. Though she usually went with the flow and lacked her own opinions, once she made up her mind, no amount of persuasion would get through to her.
"In other words, I can only start with that bastard. I have to warn him not to set his sights on Sakura." Rider nodded to herself, glanced again at Sakura, who was caught between hope and anxiety, then leaned against the window and pulled out a book to read.
Back at the castle, Rider, like Lancelot, wore modern clothes to conceal her identity. Her purple hair was tied behind her head, and her tight black pencil pants made her legs appear even more slender. She wore a simple white shirt on top and a pair of black-rimmed glasses. Her cool temperament gave people an initial impression of elegance and nobility.
Unfortunately, behind every goddess was a stack of photos of her making peace signs!
Sakura went to prepare dinner. Even though Duke had said he would be back very late, she still made enough for three people: herself, Duke, and Rider!
Lancelot: "..."
Rider carefully read the book in her hands, while also bringing Sakura within her sphere of protection. Reading was her daily hobby.
