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

With a click, the door closed.

The table lamp on the desk shone softly, illuminating Rin Tohsaka on the bed.

Her voice became a little hoarse—a sign of crying.

“Ian.” Rin Tohsaka, her eyes brimming with tears, looked at the man before her, her gaze becoming somewhat complicated.

"You...were the one who called my mom over?"

"Yes." The man made no attempt to hide it. "I was the one who called Mrs. Kui over."

"Why didn't you tell me beforehand... I cried because of this, it's so embarrassing."

Rin Tohsaka wiped her eyes, trying to erase all the marks.

"I'm sorry, I didn't consider that."

The man looked at the girl in front of him and apologized very sincerely.

"but--"

"This is the only solution I can think of."

“Yes, yes!” Atalanta couldn’t bear to see Ian being scolded by Rin Tohsaka like that, so she spoke up to help.

"Master... the main thing is that Ian has been planning this very carefully."

"He really didn't mean to make you cry."

"..."

Rin Tohsaka turned her face away, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"I didn't say I was going to blame him."

“Ian…come sit here with me.”

"..."

But as soon as Atalanta sat down, something happened that left her speechless.

Rin Tohsaka tilted her head slightly, placed a kiss on the man's cheek, and then said shyly.

"Thank you."

"After talking with my mom... I definitely didn't feel as bad as before."

"Your idea is very good."

"Really? That's great." The man wiped the hickey on his cheek.

"In that case——"

"Then I won't disturb your and Atalanta's rest."

"Wait a minute!" Rin Tohsaka grabbed Ian's hand.

"What's wrong?" The man turned around.

"Ian."

"You'll still have to sleep on the sofa tonight, right?"

Rin Tohsaka looked shy, but her heart was filled with determination.

She realized that she might have wanted to say this a long time ago.

"That--"

"Why don't you just stay here and sleep for the night?"

"..."

Ian looked at Rin Tohsaka in front of him and didn't know how to respond to her invitation for a while.

The man's appearance made Rin Tohsaka realize that she might have been a bit too forward, so she quickly added a few words.

"I did not mean!"

"I'm saying this... simply because there are still some things I'd like to discuss with you!"

"But Rin, you just said you really wanted to sleep, didn't you?" Atalanta added insult to injury.

"Archer!"

Rin Tohsaka, now that she'd been exposed, was even more embarrassed.

Why did you have to say it now?!

"Eh...this!"

"..."

Ian watched the Archer group working in perfect harmony, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"I understand."

“In that case… then thank you, Rin, for being willing to ‘take me in’.”

"..."

Rin Tohsaka's cheeks turned even redder.

But this time she didn't deny what the man said; instead, she nodded.

"As long as you know."

Ever since——

Ian ended up sleeping in the same bed as Rin Tohsaka and Atalanta.

The man is in the very center, Rin Tohsaka is on the left, and Atalanta is on the right.

"Then, let's turn off the lights."

As he said this, Ian turned off the desk lamp.

The room was soon plunged into darkness.

only--

Although they were completely plunged into darkness, the three people on the bed did not fall asleep.

They all have things they can't understand.

The words they had just heard lingered in their minds.

Finally, Atalanta couldn't hold back any longer, and she was the first to speak:

"that--"

"Although it might seem a little inappropriate to say this now... I still want to know one thing."

"What is it?" Ian asked.

"that is--"

Atalanta recalled what her master Ian had told her, and then directly voiced the question that had been lingering in her mind.

"If what was said before is true, then the person named Li Shuwen is a follower."

"Then he should protect that wicked Master named Kirei Kotomine well, right?"

"but now--"

"Kirei Kotomine is dead."

"Does that mean there is an even more powerful Servant?"

"..."

Atalanta makes a good point.

This is exactly what you're worried about.

You realize you really should have a serious talk with Rin Tohsaka about this.

After all, the most terrifying enemy is the unknown one.

“Archer, you’re absolutely right,” Rin Tohsaka, who was also having trouble sleeping, chimed in.

"As things stand, either Lancer did it, or Caster, whom we haven't seen yet, used some kind of method."

"Of course, it could also be Assassin—but I think that bastard Kirei Kotomine summoned Assassin."

"As for the rest... they're basically not even in the running."

As she said this, Rin Tohsaka looked at Ian beside her.

She now admires men's powerful attraction to the opposite sex to the point of complete awe.

Rider Artoria, Archer Atalanta, and Berserker Ibaraki-doji all have an indelible trust in him.

Could this be some kind of hidden Saber class skill, and one that hasn't been recorded yet?

"..."

The man didn't notice the girl's gaze. He followed her words, thought for a moment, and then gave his opinion.

If that's the case—

“I don’t think Lancer is likely to do that either.”

"After all, Misaya doesn't seem like the type of person who would use a dagger to leave behind evidence after winning."

"..."

Although Rin Tohsaka did not agree with Ian's attitude of directly denying Lancer's possibility.

But at the same time, she also knew that the man must have thought it through before making such a judgment.

There's no need for me to argue with him.
