"You're lying..."

Artoria pouted, looking somewhat aggrieved.

Little... This word, which she had never paid any attention to before, now evoked a rare feeling of loneliness in her.

The girl, who had been ignoring her own feelings, didn't even know that the kind of melancholy that left her feeling empty inside was called inferiority.

"Senior, didn't you say that as long as you exercise more, you can get bigger?"

He looked at the girl who was suddenly gazing at him with hopeful eyes.

Looking back on his ramblings, Shirou felt trapped in a difficult situation.

"This method might work, but it's unlikely to be effective..."

He wouldn't understand such things.

Why don't you ask Morgan?

Generating electricity every day might just be the reason for its growth.

Although Shirou had already used his reason to tell the girl that he had actually been talking nonsense.

but……

"Since even you, senior, don't know, it might actually be effective!"

The blushing girl moved closer to him.

"Please help me, senior."

Those words were tinged with shyness.

The lingering sound that echoed in my ears.

It is tantamount to the demonic words that tempt humanity to depravity.

……

early morning.

After breakfast, Shirou stared blankly at his hands.

This is no ordinary hand.

These are hands stained with evil.

This is the hand that has defiled the angels.

His thoughts were more chaotic than ever before. Shirou shook his head and stopped thinking about these things.

"Sakura, let me teach you magic today."

"€? Really...!"

Sakura seemed excited after hearing Shirou's words.

Her quiet and lovely little face was full of anticipation.

Sakura's introduction to shadow magic has officially begun.

"Today we'll be discussing the most basic concept of magic: incantations."

Shirou raised his hand, his fingers dancing in the air like he was playing the piano.

Sakura, who was intently watching Shirou's movements, suddenly felt as if some kind of ripple was spreading outwards.

No, maybe there really is something.

Those seemingly casual movements are actually manipulating "forces" that are invisible to the eye.

That was a miracle called magic.

This is also the core of this teaching.

Sakura could feel the ripples constantly spreading throughout the room, reflecting back and forth in dense waves.

The air seemed to become alien in the next instant.

Simply put, it's like being "isolated" from the real world.

Although no changes are visible to the naked eye.

However, Sakura vaguely understood that the magical environment in the living room had changed.

"In magic, incantations are nothing more than self-suggestion given to an individual."

"The magic of the wind is like a weapon; its power is determined from the very beginning."

"The efficacy will not change regardless of which magician uses it."

“However, chanting can make it different.”

Shirou looked at the girl who was listening attentively and continued:

"Chanting incantations is to discover the magic engraved within one's own body."

"In addition to containing the fixed keywords necessary to discover the magic trick, the details of the incantation are also based on the magician's preferences."

Sakura frowned slightly as she listened, seemingly deep in thought.

"Shirou, do you mean that the incantation for the same magic trick could be different?"

Shirou nodded.

His gaze seemed to be fixed on Sakura, but it was actually on the semi-transparent window that only he could see.

The witch's words appeared clearly on it.

“Morgan said that’s how it is.”

"Who is Morgan...?"

Sakura tilted her head and asked in confusion.

"Uh... he was a very famous magician in history."

Shirou gave a confident and eloquent reply.

"Alright, now try this incantation."

Shirou taught Sakura the incantations Morgan had taught him, bit by bit.

"Slow down, Shirou."

Sakura pleaded.

Shirou read it too fast, making it a little difficult for her to remember.

As Sakura listened to Shirou recite the incantation bit by bit, her eyes gradually revealed admiration.

Even after he finished reciting the incantation, the girl was still gazing at him intently.

"Alright, give it a try, Sakura," Shirou encouraged.

"Yes, I will try my best!"

Sakura nodded and clenched her little fist.

Within the girl's small, raised hand, a continuous flow of azure magical light emanated.

"More profound than darkness, more ethereal than a feather."

"Radiance and flames are your accompanying darkness, and silence and darkness are also eternal words."

"Those who flow and gather in accordance with my incantation, spread forth!"

"Veil of Shadows"

The prayer, sung in a staccato manner, was finished.

The shadows flowed and gathered silently.

"It's...it's a success...!"

Sakura looked at the shadows flowing silently around her, her little face beaming with joy.

Although it's only a preliminary application, my understanding of this magic trick is still quite rudimentary.

However, it is already a remarkable achievement.

Sakura's talent is in no way inferior to that of her older sister Rin.

"Then you practice first, I'm going to take a break."

Shirou stretched and sank into the soft sofa.

The witch's information was still flowing through the semi-transparent window in sight.

Morgan: "So, has she learned it?"

[Chiki Shirou: "I've learned it, but as for how well... why don't you come and check it out for yourself?"]

Morgan: "I dare not..."

How come the infamous witch is even more socially awkward than the anime/manga world?

Somewhat speechless, Shirou closed the window.
