In the world of Type-Moon, it all begins with becoming Morgan's husband!

"Teacher, what do you mean by this?"

With a simple sentence, Sakura Tohsaka threw the question back at Vivian.

Fortunately, the witch wasn't unprepared; she began to explain without openly escalating the situation.

"Sakura, since you've learned so much about the Holy Grail War from me..."

"You should know that Servants who appear in response to a summons don't actually exist, right?"

"Admittedly, they may be able to live and communicate like humans, and do all sorts of things."

"but--"

"All of that is based on the premise that the Holy Grail War has not ended."

"Once the Holy Grail War is decided, these Servants will disappear sooner or later."

"What you call liking will only turn into a false hope in the end."

"Instead of feeling pain at that time, you might as well give up on this thought now, so that you can feel a little more at ease."

Vivian really didn't want to use this reason.

Because the fact that Ian is a Servant doesn't just apply to Sakura Tohsaka.

It was also effective for Vivian.

Ian's disappearance in front of Sakura Tohsaka is equivalent to his disappearance in front of the witch.

In the end, it won't just be one person suffering.

but--

Vivian knew that she and Sakura Tohsaka were somewhat different.

The most obvious and valuable trump card is that his magical reserves far exceed those of Sakura Tohsaka.

As for magic, needless to say, Vivian can claim without exaggeration that no modern magician can compare to her.

If she could wrest control of Ian's mana supply from Sakura Tohsaka, she would have a million ways to keep this man by her side forever.

and so--

Vivian uttered these words, which seemed like a trump card.

The witch wanted Sakura Tohsaka to immediately understand that she was destined to lose Ian no matter what.

In that case, my student won't be daydreaming.

however--

What Vivian didn't realize was that Sakura Tohsaka had already considered everything she was thinking about because of her feelings for Ian.

She quickly responded to her teacher's "advice to withdraw".

"Teacher, you are absolutely right."

"Mr. Ian is merely a Servant of the Holy Grail War."

"According to the records in the book, he is indeed very likely to disappear after the Holy Grail War ends."

"But--"

Sakura Tohsaka looked at Vivian in front of her, her gaze revealing a rare firmness.

“Teacher Vivian, you seem to have forgotten something quite important.”

"Hmm?" Vivian frowned. "Have you forgotten something quite important?"

"Hmm." Sakura Tohsaka nodded. "Vivian-sensei...don't you remember the ultimate goal of the Holy Grail War?"

"To obtain the 'Holy Grail' that can grant wishes, and thus to fulfill the magician's own desires."

"..."

Vivian was not oblivious; she quickly realized the hidden meaning in Sakura Tohsaka's words.

"You don't mean to say..."

"Yes, teacher."

Sakura Tohsaka took the initiative to continue the conversation—that was something she only did when she was certain about something.

"Actually... ten years ago, when you told me about the Holy Grail War, I had already figured out what I would do after I got the Holy Grail."

"That is to allow Mr. Ghost to appear in this world."

"but--"

"That kind of wish seems a bit outdated."

Sakura Tohsaka's eyes were now filled with determination as she looked at Vivian.

At this moment, she did not regard the other party as a teacher she had to respect, but as a rival in love who needed to be warned.

This is the first time Sakura Tohsaka has done this, and she will only do it once.

"Now, let me reiterate my wish to the teacher."

"That is--"

"I will win the Holy Grail War, and then use it to make a wish to keep Mr. Ian by my side."

"Teacher, did you hear me clearly?"

"..."

Vivian's pupils dilated several times in an instant.

That was something that shocked her from the bottom of her heart.

Now, however, there seems to be an added layer of fear.

She realized that Sakura Tohsaka in front of her had a similar goal to hers.

But the cruelest thing is that it seems only one of them can fulfill their wish.

For Vivian at this moment, it was clearly something that could not be achieved.

after all--

Sakura Tohsaka now has a clear objective.

And what about yourself?

"..."

"..."

A deathly silence fell over the atmosphere.

The master and apprentice looked at each other without saying another word.

Neither of them revealed the other's true thoughts, yet they were so sincere as to seem to have confessed everything.

You are unaware of Sakura Tohsaka and Vivian's current situation.

Because you have things you need to do.

You and Rin Tohsaka headed towards the checkout counter.

However, what you don't know is that Rin Tohsaka has some strange thoughts about you.

He looked back every three steps.

He looked back every three steps.

Ian had lost count of how many times Rin Tohsaka had turned around.

He watched as the other person scrutinized him countless times with the same look they would give a “visiting a rare animal”.

Finally, after Rin Tohsaka turned around again, Ian couldn't hold back any longer and asked directly:

"Miss Rin, is there something you want to say?"

"If that's the case, let's be more direct... it'll be better for both of us."

"Uh……"

Rin Tohsaka, who had been caught, scratched her face, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"Are you sure you want to know?"

“Hmm.” Ian nodded. “Otherwise, you’ll break your neck in front of me sooner or later.”

"Then promise me you won't tell anyone else, especially Sakura!" Rin Tohsaka added her own request.

"..."

“Okay,” Ian agreed.

“If there’s no problem, I definitely won’t tell her… so go ahead and tell me.”

If there's no problem, of course I won't say.

If there's a problem, then it's a different story.

However, Rin Tohsaka seemed impatient and didn't pay much attention to the trap Ian had set in his words.

She looked around to make sure no one was looking in her direction before expressing her thoughts.

"I said--"

"Can I touch your breasts?"

Rin Tohsaka would never admit that she felt a thrill from the sexually charged scene that Vivian had previously displayed.

She simply wanted to experience the magical power of Ian, who was a Saber.

That's really true!

certainly--

Rin Tohsaka felt that her actions would most likely be rejected.

After all, even she herself felt that this behavior was a little outrageous.

however--
