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

I never imagined I'd have such a pathetic day...

Vivian chuckled self-deprecatingly, then temporarily set aside her stubbornness and began to enjoy the food in front of her.

But as she kept tasting, she started to feel that everything she ate was salty.

Did Ian not pay attention to the taste when cooking?

No.

He wouldn't do that—those were tears falling.

The more the occasion was one that he should have favored, the more aggrieved Vivian felt.

I used to take everything for granted.

But in fact--

There is no such thing as love that is taken for granted; there is only one's own sense of entitlement.

but--

Fate did not extinguish Vivian's hopes at all.

A familiar touch came, a warm and reassuring feeling.

Vivian glanced to the side and saw Ian, who was talking to Sakura Tohsaka, silently take her hand in Sakura's blind spot.

The slightly rough knight's hand was now tightly wrapped around the princess's well-maintained hand like a guard, as if saying "Don't be sad."

This simple gesture was enough to bring tears to Vivian's eyes—he clearly remembered nothing, yet he still came to comfort her.

The witch responded to his hand, her fingertips caressing his palm as she gently wrote down the sweet words she could think of.

That was one of the few times Vivian felt at ease.

Even if——

He was only acting out of good intentions, and at the same time, he didn't know what the trajectory of the witch's fingers represented.

But not long after, Rin Tohsaka returned.

She looked at the scene before her, somewhat surprised.

"Ah?"

"You guys have actually started eating seriously now?"

Rin Tohsaka's words instantly dispelled the previously ambiguous atmosphere.

Ian and Vivian's hands separated at that moment, making all traces disappear.

The man looked at Rin Tohsaka and noticed that she was all alone beside her.

"Miss Rin, where is Mrs. Aoi?"

“Just call me Rin.” Rin Tohsaka corrected Ian’s form of address. “Calling me ‘Miss’ makes me sound so old.”

"My mom wasn't feeling well, so she went to rest first."

"correct--"

The girl's gaze swept over the three people present.

Have you thought about how to disguise your identities next?

"Disguise your identity?" Sakura Tohsaka didn't quite understand what her older sister meant.

"Yes."

Rin Tohsaka sat on the tatami mat and continued eating—she actually quite liked Ian's cooking.

"Aren't you going to participate in the Holy Grail War?"

"It's not the right time yet."

"If I don't disguise my identity and someone finds out I'm the Master beforehand, that would be troublesome."

“This…” Sakura Tohsaka frowned slightly, it was clear that she hadn’t thought about this question.

"So you hadn't considered it after all." Rin Tohsaka pouted.

"Then let's do this—"

"Hmm...why don't you all pretend to be students and teachers?"

"Students and teachers?" Sakura Tohsaka blinked. "What does this mean, sister?"

“That’s what I mean.” Rin Tohsaka laid her cards on the table. “You’re coming to the private Homurahara Academy where I’m currently studying.”

"Anyway, they have been recruiting more teachers recently. If Ian and Vivian work a little harder, they should be able to get in."

"As for you, Sakura—"

"It would be fine to be a transfer student or something."

"That way, no one will suspect that you're here to participate in the Holy Grail War."

"I see." Sakura Tohsaka nodded thoughtfully.

"That--"

The girl glanced cautiously at Ian and Vivian.

"What are your opinions...?"

“I have no objection,” Ian quickly replied. “If you think it’s okay, then it’s fine.”

“I…don’t either,” Vivian agreed. “After all, I am a teacher.”

"Then it's decided."

Rin Tohsaka delivered her concluding remarks cleanly and concisely.

"Get some rest. I'll take you there tomorrow."

It was all swept away in a whirlwind.

Things seem to be moving in a relatively stable direction.

but--

This is just a superficial phenomenon.

As Sakura Tohsaka was carrying the bowls, preparing to go into the kitchen to wash them, she discovered that her older sister was already there.

"Sakura."

"What, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just want to tell you something."

Rin Tohsaka whispered to her younger sister.

That was the answer she came up with after thinking about her mother Zenjo Aoi's words.

"tonight--"

"My sister wants to sleep in the same room as you and Ian, is that okay?"

"Eh?"

Sakura Tohsaka, who was holding a bowl, never expected her older sister to say such a thing at this moment.

However, she quickly realized that the other party had come to help her.

"Sister, you mean..."

"Actually, it's like this..."

Rin Tohsaka leaned close to her younger sister's ear and spoke cautiously.

"Sakura, what do you think?"

"Eh—?!" Sakura Tohsaka blushed furiously. "Sister, you found out?"

"Of course I can tell." Rin Tohsaka rolled her eyes at her sister. "I'm not blind, of course I can see it!"

"But, but isn't this a bit inappropriate?!" Sakura Tohsaka's eyes darted around, and she almost dropped the dishes she was about to wash.

"It's too embarrassing."

"It's definitely embarrassing," Rin Tohsaka said, crossing her arms. "But the reward is also very high."

"After all, if he doesn't object, the matter will be settled."

"..."

Sakura Tohsaka felt her head buzzing.

Finally, the girl nodded.

"Well, I see."

[You are unaware that Sakura and Rin Tohsaka made some kind of agreement at this time.]

[Because Vivian found you while she was washing the dishes.]

She has something she wants to tell you.

"Ian."

Vivian called out the name of the man in front of her.

"Hmm?" The knight turned around. "Vivian, is there something you need?"

"It's nothing serious."

Vivian looked at Ian in front of her, her beautiful eyes filled with a hint of caution.

"that--"

Do you remember what you promised me?

"If... I mean if, if I had told you in advance, I could have thanked you in that way, right?"
