Nuclear Sword Immortal Starting from Type-Moon

"Why, why do you say that?"

When Shirou called her by her name directly, Rin couldn't help but feel shy, and her cheeks flushed red.

In Japan, addressing someone by their first name is a very intimate gesture.

Generally, when addressing someone you are not familiar with, you will use their surname, and sometimes even add a respectful term.

Family members, close friends, or lovers would address each other by their names.

"Because Rin is also a magician."

"It's a bit troublesome if magic tricks are seen by ordinary people, but it's not a problem if they're seen by fellow magicians."

"And I didn't use any special magic tricks."

That's right, it's just the most ordinary 'projection magic' that nobody in the entire magic world cares about.

It's just that what he projected was a bit 'special'.

That's right, it's just a Noble Phantasm that can obliterate any magician to dust.

That's all.

"I see...that makes a lot of sense."

Rin nodded, feigning modesty, with her arms crossed.

That pretentious little adult act was both cute and a bit comical.

However, Rin quickly put her hands on her hips with a troubled and shy expression and stared at Shirou.

"Also, please don't call me by my name so intimately! People will misunderstand..."

Shirou had a look of sudden realization on his face.

"Sorry, then...Tohsaka?"

Seeing Shirou's awkward expression as he addressed her by his own surname, Rin sighed helplessly.

"Alright... I'll make you call me by my name then."

"But... don't get carried away!"

"Yes, Miss Rin!"

Shirou immediately nodded seriously.

“€€€€!!”

Rin glared at Shirou, somewhat annoyed.

This guy... he definitely did it on purpose!

Chapter Twenty-One: Hyatt Hotel

After school.

Shirou went to a public phone booth and called Mrs. Chiki at home, asking her to bring Sakura over.

Mr. Chihiro was unable to attend due to having to work overtime.

Led by Ayako Mizuki, the three headed to the agreed-upon location—a luxury hotel in the heart of Fuyuki City.

However, when the taxi slowly came to a stop and arrived at the hotel's exquisitely decorated lobby...

Shirou's eyes twitched as he looked at the huge 'Hyatt Hotel' sign.

"So this is it... "

"But since I've already summoned all the Lancer-class servants, Kenneth's relics are probably useless now."

In the original story of Fate/Zero, Kenneth summoned Diarmuid, the 'Radiant One'.

Diarmuid is compatible with two class classes.

They are Saber (Saber class) and Lancer (Lancer class).

Both of these classes are now taken, by Artoria and Enkidu respectively.

Although we don't know yet whether Saber (Saber class) is Artoria, we can only assume that for now.

Therefore, the probability of Diarmuid being summoned is greatly reduced, or even negligible.

Even without using relics, it is still possible to summon Servants based on affinity.

But given Kenneth's typical arrogant nature as a clock tower monarch, he probably wouldn't engage in such a gamble based entirely on luck.

Summoning disobedient Servants will only create more trouble in the end.

With a slightly apprehensive feeling, Shirou entered the hotel lobby amidst a warm welcome from Ayako's parents.

At this moment, the private room was already quite full.

Besides Mizuki and her family of three, there were also two sprightly elderly people, who appeared to be her grandparents.

"You must be Chiki Shirou, right? I really have to thank you. If you hadn't called the police in time, my Ayako would have been in danger!"

Mr. Mizuki's tone was full of gratitude, without the slightest hint of adult disdain for minors.

After Shirou took Ayako Mitsuzuri home last night, Mr. Mitsuzuri learned everything that had happened from his daughter.

Of course, that was the "truth" that Shirou reconstructed after having Ayako Mitsuri conceal some of the facts.

However, there is absolutely no falsehood in the fact that he saved Ayako Mitsuki.

Therefore, Shirou accepted Mr. Mitsuzuri's gratitude without any qualms.

As for the illogical parts of Ayako Mitsuki's words.

Mr. Mizuki also assumed that his daughter was too frightened at the time, which was why she was somewhat incoherent.

After all, he's only 6 years old, so it's perfectly normal.

Otherwise, it's impossible that Chiki Shirou, a child who is also 7 years old, could defeat the perverted serial killer, Uryu Ryunosuke, all by himself, right?

There's a limit to jokes!

In any case, as long as his daughter was safe and sound, Mr. Mizuki did not think about anything else.

Because he came to Fuyuki City to do business, he even had his daughter transfer to Yatsushirodai Elementary School ahead of schedule; these were all his ideas.

If something were to happen to his daughter because of this... Mr. Mizuki would probably never be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.

"Uncle Mizuki, you flatter me."

Shirou replied with a smile, his manners impeccable.

Seeing that Shirou was not intimidated at all and responded clearly, Mr. Mitsuri couldn't help but be a little surprised.

You should know that children of this age are mostly shy around strangers.

Even the most daring and outgoing children can feel quite awkward in front of so many strangers.

However, the child remained remarkably calm, his emotions eerily stable.

What a child who can remain calm and collected even in such an extreme situation!

Mr. Mizuki sighed inwardly.

If he knew that Shirou had single-handedly killed that serial killer, I wonder what he would think.

Unfortunately, this fact cannot be known to outsiders, and even if they did, no one would believe it.

In the end, the only person who knew everything Shirou had done was the little girl Ayako.

"Ayako, come over here quickly and thank Shirou-nii-san!"

Mr. Mizuki urged his daughter.

Ayako quickly walked up to Shirou, looking at him with a somewhat restrained gaze.

"Um... thank you... Shirou-nii-san..."

Ayako still remembered Shirou's last words to scare her last night, so she seemed a little timid in front of him.

Although it's still unknown who is older.

However, with Mr. Mitsuzuri's assessment, Ayako Mitsuzuri will only ever be Shirou's little sister from now on.

As Ayako looked at Shirou, who had a slight smile on his lips, she felt her fear gradually fade away.

She even inadvertently recalled the last words Shirou said to her last night.

The words, "This is our secret," still seem to echo in her ears.

Looking at the red-haired boy in front of her, and recalling everything that happened that day, Ayako Mitsuki couldn't help but feel a sense of longing.

"What kind of person is he, really...?"

Ayako's curiosity grew stronger.

The subsequent dinner consisted mostly of polite conversation.

Shirou and Mrs. Chiki responded casually to the conversation between Misaki's parents.

Sakura sat obediently next to Shirou, eating her food in small bites.
