Therefore, they are more likely to accept unfamiliar environments.

Mrs. Chihiro has already prepared breakfast.

A sandwich served with heated milk.

People in this era do not yet have the concept of balanced nutrition and health preservation, and breakfast and dinner are prepared casually.

As long as there is no food poisoning, it's fine. For those who have already joined the ranks of the unemployed, instant noodles are the most convenient option for all three meals. It's economical, affordable, and saves time.

Fortunately, the Shirow family was relatively financially stable, so their daily meals were quite good.

"I'm sorry, Sakura, you came in such a hurry, I haven't had a chance to ask you what you like to eat yet."

At the dining table, Mrs. Chihiro was showing concern for Sakura.

"Although we don't have a castle or servants here, I will do my best to take care of you. If you are unhappy about anything, please tell me."

Shirou and Sakura were both stunned.

"Castle...servants?"

"Ah...no, it's okay, Aunt Chihiro, I'm very happy..."

Watching Sakura awkwardly dealing with Mrs. Chiki, Shirou quietly communicated with Enkidu in his spirit form.

"Enkidu, what exactly did you assign Sakura?"

"Princess...don't you have people with this kind of status in your modern world?"

Enkidu listened to Shirou's tone and felt like he had made a mistake somewhere, his own tone becoming somewhat unsteady.

"This is outrageous!!"

Shirou quickly had Enkidu reset.

Finally, Sakura seemed much more normal in Mrs. Chiki's eyes.

"It seems like it's almost eight o'clock. Shirou, aren't you going to school yet?" Mrs. Chiki suddenly asked.

"what……"

Shirou glanced at the time and realized it was already past 7:40. If he continued to dawdle, he might be late.

Although there wasn't much to learn in elementary school, Shirou really didn't want to experience being late and having the teacher bend over and call him "Chiki-kun" again.

No matter how I think about it, I feel so ashamed.

What adult could stand being treated like this!

Perhaps college students could handle it.

After all, college students exude an aura of wisdom from the inside out; you can see a unique kind of clear-eyed foolishness just from their eyes.

Shirou picked up his shoulder bag and was about to leave when he noticed Sakura tugging at his clothes.

Shirou could read in her eyes that she didn't want him to leave.

"Wait for me a little while, okay?"

"..."

She didn't say anything, but silently let go of his hand.

Shirou smiled and touched her hair. The girl squinted her eyes slightly, as if she felt somewhat comfortable.

"Stay home and wait for me obediently."

After saying that, Shirou strode towards the entrance.

"Well then, I'm heading out."

Upon hearing Shirou's words, Mrs. Chiki's gentle voice sounded behind him.

"Take care on your journey."

Shirou raised his hand, waved, and walked out of the house.

After closing the door, Shirou looked back at his house, still feeling uneasy.

"Enkidu, you should stay home today. I don't want anything to happen at home."

"€? What about you, Master?" Enkidu asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, even if you can't beat me, you can still escape," Shirou reassured him with a smile.

"Alright then, but if you encounter anything you can't handle, Master, you must summon me with a Command Seal."

Enkidu gave them a word of advice.

"Yes, I know."

Shirou nodded.

It is truly a blessing to have a Servant as gentle and powerful as Enkidu.

With a sigh in his heart, Shirou tightened his shoulder bag and headed to school.

Chapter 18 Tohsaka Family Traditional Arts

"No!!!"

Gilles de Rais, in the darkness, clutched his hair in grief and wailed like a child.

This is a space inside a sewer on the banks of the Weiyuan River.

Now, it has been transformed into a magic workshop by Gilles de Rais, who is a Caster.

"My best friend, Ryunosuke, whom I've only known for less than a week!

In fact, not long after Ryunosuke Uryu died, Caster, who was building his magic factory on the other side, had already received the news.

"He's so important to me... well, not really that important."

Because of his Master's sudden death, Gilles de Rais could only focus on ensuring his own continued existence in the world.

After capturing a large number of humans and turning them into magic, Gilles de Rais finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"But...who exactly killed you?!"

The dimly lit space reeked of a nauseating, thick stench of blood, and weak sobs and whimpers could be heard from all directions.

In this darkness, there is a crystal ball.

The hazy white light is an image appearing inside the crystal ball.

In that image, there appeared the corpse of Ryunosuke Uryu, and the fleeting figure of a red-haired boy.

"Is it you?!"

After learning who the culprit was, Gilles de Rais did not immediately take retaliatory action.

The most urgent task is to add enough magic to ensure its continued existence in the world.

Gilles de Rais's Noble Phantasm, "The Book of the Annihilation City," contains a large number of forbidden magics.

This naturally includes methods like "blood sacrifice" to obtain magic power.

But that's not enough; he still needs a Master to depend on.

Fortunately, someone has already offered him help.

Taking a deep breath, Gilles de Rey's sorrowful expression gradually subsided, and his withered fingers gripped a yellowed book tightly.

Even so, this newly acquainted friend was far less precious to Gilles de Rais than the saintess.

but……

He is also one of a kind in this world who can understand Gilles de Rais's philosophy.

"You who took my dearest friend's life—I will make you pay the price!!"

……

The hot breath he exhaled turned into a wisp of white smoke in the air.

The scenery was as beautiful as ever, and Shirou only had a cursory look at it today.

Ding Dong

The announcement from the tram stop rang in my ears.

Shirou mingled with the crowd and stepped into the carriage.

Speaking of that high school girl with the flaxen hair in a single ponytail, why does she look so familiar?

After the girl sat down, the brief glimpse of tiger stripes that she revealed surprised Shirou slightly.

I've unintentionally seen this unique design several times already.

Holy crap, could it be the same person?!

Suppressing his curiosity, Shirou turned his gaze elsewhere, inwardly grumbling.

"The doors will be closing, please be aware."

The automatic door closes slowly under pneumatic actuation.
