"Because you always wet the bed!"

"Please, please stop, Irisviel... I beg you...!"

Many curious eyes were cast upon her, causing Saber's cheeks to flush with embarrassment, making her feel utterly ashamed.

Embarrassing, awkward.

The unbearable stares made Saber bury her head in the sand like an ostrich, following behind Irisviel, who was excitedly looking around.

The golden ahoge on her head swayed constantly as she walked.

……

"It seems that Saber (Saber-class) is still Artoria who has become the King of Knights."

Holding Rin's hand, Shirou walked down the street, muttering to himself.

Both her aura and her eyes are more mature and weary than Lily from the Age of Gods.

She was undoubtedly a weathered old woman.

Some things are already self-evident.

The age of gods that I went to was probably a completely different trajectory from the pan-human history.

Even though he hasn't changed those important historical events yet, everything that's happening there still depends entirely on his current decision.

But what kind of future it will lead to remains to be seen.

Shirou's thoughts continued to travel forward, and he was less than a hundred meters away from the street where Rin's hometown was located.

"Shirou, do you know what the current situation is like in the Holy Grail War?"

Rin looked at Shirou with some worry.

Why bring this up all of a sudden...?

Shirou looked at Rin with a bit of a headache.

He had always tried his best to keep her out of the Holy Grail War.

Even after his 'battle' with Ishtar, when explaining to Rin, Shirou deliberately downplayed the Holy Grail War.

"It should... be in progress."

"After all, didn't an explosion happen in Weiyuanchuan yesterday?"

"I'm not too sure about the specifics."

Shirou said somewhat vaguely.

"Is that so..."

After what happened last night, Rin now regards Shirou as her pillar of support.

Even so, Rin didn't think that Shirou, a child of the same age, could participate in the Holy Grail War.

As for the matter with Ishtar...

Rin didn't believe Shirou's story of sacrificing himself for her sake at all.

He, he definitely likes feet!

Rin's face was flushed, and she stared at Shirou with a somewhat reproachful look.

all in all.

Given all these circumstances, Shirou, who knew about the Holy Grail War but did not 'participate' in it, became the most suitable person for Rin to confide in at that moment.

Of course, Rin isn't stupid either.

She naturally wouldn't reveal any core secrets related to her father, Tokiomi Tohsaka.

Unfortunately, what she didn't know was that, in Shirou's eyes, everything about Tokiomi Tohsaka was like being naked.

He had already seen through all of the Tohsaka family head's trump cards.

"I've looked up the information before."

"The previous Holy Grail Wars all ended within a few weeks."

Rin recalled as she spoke.

"The Holy Grail War, huh..."

Shirou's gaze wandered, looking towards the mansion in front of him.

"It feels like something very far removed from us..."

"I just hope there won't be too many casualties."

However, this is not something he can easily control.

Even possessing the power of a Heroic Spirit doesn't mean he can easily control the chaotic situation of the Holy Grail War.

After all, his opponents were no ordinary people.

Upon hearing Shirou's words, Rin immediately nodded in empathy.

"Well, I hope everyone stays safe and sound."

A hint of worry, hard to conceal, flashed in her clear, blue eyes.

"I wonder how long this Holy Grail War will last..."

Because her father, Tokiomi Tohsaka, has already entered the Holy Grail War, Rin is very concerned about this matter.

"I don't know. If I could, I'd really like to see it with my own eyes."

Shirou spoke casually.

"You mustn't have such dangerous thoughts, Shirou!"

Upon hearing Shirou's completely unconcerned statement, Rin's face immediately turned serious.

Even if you are a magician, you are still just a child.

"Getting involved in something as dangerous as the Holy Grail War would be extremely dangerous!"

Rin's home contains many heavy books related to "mystery".

She also used to stand on a small stool and browse through the books on the bookshelf that recorded the Holy Grail War.

Among them, it is explicitly mentioned that the Servants summoned in the Holy Grail War are all beings who were renowned in the past.

There are heroes, kings, and knights from past eras, as well as heinous criminals who have committed monstrous crimes.

That's why Rin's face showed such obvious tension after hearing Shirou's words.

She was genuinely worried about Shirou.

She worries that her only magician friend of the same age might recklessly stumble into the terrible vortex of the Holy Grail War.

"Don't worry, Rin, I won't."

Shirou gently comforted the anxious girl in front of him.

The girl's previously tense shoulders relaxed slightly, and her somewhat nervous expression eased as a result.

They had already arrived at Rin's old house, so Shirou decided to let go of the girl's hand.

"Then, I'll go first."

I couldn't let go.

It was only then that Shirou realized that it was no longer him holding Rin's hand, but rather Rin tightly gripping his hand.

"I was thinking I could go to the amusement park with you today, Shirou..."

Rin's cute little face showed a wronged expression, her eyes were filled with tears, and her voice sounded somewhat disappointed.

"Waaah..."

Perhaps the more she thought about it, the more upset she became. Rin's small shoulders trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but sob softly.

Seeing her like this, Shirou reached out and gently patted her back to comfort her.

Instead of comforting her, his action only made the girl cry even louder.

"Waaah... Guaah... Gua!!!"

"???"

Shirou was speechless upon seeing this.

Kids are such a hassle; their emotional control is so terrible.

Rin was sobbing uncontrollably, a sight that gave Shirou a real headache.

"Okay, okay, I promise I'll go with you next weekend, is that alright?"

With those words, Rin's crying stopped abruptly.

"Really...?"

"If you're lying, you'll have to swallow a thousand needles."

"...?"
