She had been in this cold, lonely cage filled with data and electricity for so long, and she had never eaten anything so warm and delicious, filled with the taste of love!

"Eat slowly, don't choke." Matou Sakura looked at the cute little one who had instantly transformed into a "little foodie," reminding her gently while also acting like the most dutiful mother, carefully wiping away the rice grains that had accidentally gotten on her lips.

She didn't urge or persuade her to go back in any utilitarian way, but just quietly stayed with her, watching her finish the whole box of lunch filled with love and warmth, until her little belly became round and plump.

Then, she spoke slowly in a gentle tone, as if chatting casually with her closest sister.

"Why would you come to such a cold and boring place all by yourself?" she asked softly. "Did you have a fight with your family?"

For the first time, a hint of grievance and loneliness appeared on the Zashiki-warashi's usually happy face. She nodded, then shook her head.

"It's too cold there," she whispered in their innocent, sweet voice, echoing in their minds. "No one plays with me, only cold, silent statues."

And the priest grandfather, who always had a stern and fierce expression.

“It’s lively here.” She pointed to the huge quantum servers flashing blue indicator lights around her. “There are lots of pretty toys that light up, and lots of interesting little people that run around. Even though they can’t see me and don’t play with me, seeing their funny panicked looks because of my little pranks makes me feel less lonely.”

Hearing these words, so full of childlike innocence yet tinged with a touch of heartache and loneliness, Rin Tohsaka and Honghong Tushan fell silent. Sakura Matou's always gentle and kind eyes, at this moment, became even more filled with maternal love and tenderness.

"Really?" She slowly reached out and gently stroked the head of the lonely, pitiful little one with a tender, cherished gesture. "But your little pranks are already bothering all those adults running around outside. They might lose important jobs because of your doodles, miss important meetings because of your candy, or get hurt badly from falling over because of your marbles. Do you really want to see those pained and sad, unpleasant expressions on their faces?"

The Zashiki-warashi fell silent. For the first time, her large, obsidian-like eyes showed confusion and helplessness. She just wanted someone to play with her; she didn't want anyone to feel pain.

"So, come leave here with me, okay?" Matou Sakura looked at her bewildered and adorable face, slowly extending her hand and offering a gentle invitation full of warmth and kindness. "I can take you to a brand new home that's much more lively and fun than here. There are many kind and beautiful older sisters there, just like me. They'll play with you and make you lots and lots of delicious bento boxes filled with love, like today's. They'll never let you feel lonely again."

Hearing this alluring description, as if from the warmest and most beautiful fairy tale world, Zashiki-warashi's bewildered eyes rekindled with a sparkling light of longing and anticipation. Looking at the older sister before her, who smiled so gently and lovingly, seemingly radiant, she hesitated for a long time before finally slowly extending her small, trusting, white hand and gently placing it in that warm, kind, and all-encompassing palm.

"Yeah." She nodded heavily.

……

When that beautiful "company elite team," with a tiny new member that only they could see, returned to the huge CEO's office, Kenji Sato, who had been waiting for a long time, saw their confident and relaxed expressions, and his heart, which had been tormented to the point of collapse, finally felt completely at ease.

"So, the three of you..." he asked cautiously, his tone filled with anticipation and nervousness, "that troublesome..."

“It’s resolved.” Rin Tohsaka snapped her fingers crisply, displaying a decisive and efficient demeanor.

The next second, the piercing alarm that had been blaring throughout the headquarters building for days suddenly stopped! All the servers and office equipment that had been paralyzed by the prank returned to normal operation at that moment!

"That's...that's great!" After receiving a positive reply, Kenji Sato's face showed a genuine, relieved, and ecstatic smile for the first time!

He didn't even engage in any unnecessary business pleasantries; he simply picked up the phone on the table in the most direct and efficient way.

"Hello? Finance Department? Immediately transfer a consulting fee of one billion yen to Lord Yura's designated account! Immediately! Right now!"

Hearing the beautiful sound filled with the promise of money, Rin Tohsaka's once dull, gem-like red eyes, dimmed by the deficit, finally rekindled with a dazzling light, like the brightest gold coins, brimming with happiness and satisfaction!

235 The King's Courtyard and the New Family

When that luxurious black Lincoln, carrying three beautiful "female executives" who had completed their "business negotiations" and a huge "consulting fee" that would make any small or medium-sized country envious, returned to the warm and noisy apartment building, a brand new "storm" full of "family" atmosphere had already been quietly brewing.

"--I'm back."

Rin Tohsaka was the first to push open the apartment door with an air of absolute authority and dominance befitting a "queen."

Her once confident and proud face no longer wore the cold, "elite" business mask. In its place was an aura of absolute, unquestionable triumph, as if she had just fought an epic battle.

"—Triumphant Return!"

She didn't even do any unnecessary, suspenseful setup.

She simply slammed the heavy bank draft, which she had just withdrawn from the bank and which represented a huge sum of one billion yen, onto the coffee table in the living room with an absolute and unquestionable air of a "housekeeper"!

"—Family financial crisis resolved!"

She solemnly proclaimed this to the group of pitiful "family members" in the living room, who were already in a "survival crisis" due to a "pudding shortage," in a tone full of "savior" arrogance and as if she were reciting the "gospel of God."

In that instant, the entire apartment fell into an eerie, absolute silence.

Immediately afterwards, a thunderous roar of cheers erupted, more enthusiastic than ever before, filled with ecstasy and disbelief!

"Wow—! Long live Lord Rin!"

"Pudding! Pudding! I want ten!"

Red Eyes and Black Eyes, like two little hamsters who had been starving for three days and three nights and had finally been fed by their "keeper," let out a happy cry, and the first one wanted to pounce on the bank draft that represented "unlimited dessert supply"!

However, amidst this frenzied and warm atmosphere filled with "money" and "food," a gentle voice, tinged with a hint of bewilderment and filled with a "healing" quality, suddenly rang out.

"Um... Rin-san..."

It's Matou Sakura.

Her beautiful eyes, which were always full of gentleness and kindness, now looked with a hint of curiosity and confusion towards the empty entrance hall.

"Has our family... had another new guest arrive?"

Her words had barely left her lips.

A small figure dressed in a classic red kimono and with cute pigtails peeking out from behind the tall, cold doorway cautiously, like the shyest and most timid little guest.

Her large eyes, as pure and clean as obsidian, filled with childlike innocence and curiosity, timidly surveyed the bustling yet unexpectedly warm new "home" before her, a place brimming with an aura of strength.

She was the willful "little princess" who had just been "rescued" from that cold, lonely "steel cage"—

Zashiki Warashi.

"Oh my? Where did you find this cute little girl?"

Leone, the first, showed a curious expression, like an older sister.

As for Rin Tohsaka, looking at this uninvited "little one" and the pure, "lucky" aura emanating from her, a knowing glint flashed in her jewel-like red eyes.

"It seems this is the real reward we were promised for this commission."

She muttered to herself in a shrewd, calculating tone, like a busybody.

Clearly, in her view, a living "god of fortune" who can bring "good luck" is far more valuable than a mere billion yen.

The Zashiki-warashi, looking at the group of beautiful "older sisters" in front of it, filled with curiosity and scrutiny, involuntarily shrank back with its small, cute body.

She seemed somewhat afraid.

However, at this moment.

A gentle figure, exuding a healing aura and seemingly capable of soothing all unease and fear, slowly approached her.

It's Matou Sakura.

She slowly crouched down, looking at the timid, pitiful little fellow with the gentlest, most loving, and maternal gaze.

"—Welcome home."

She didn't ask about her origins.

I didn't ask about her past.

She simply smiled like the gentlest and most dutiful "mother" at a lost child who had just returned home, a smile that was enough to melt any ice, full of "love" and "acceptance," the warmest smile.

Then, she slowly extended her hand.

"From today onwards, this is your home."

Listening to those gentle words filled with "warmth" and "kindness".

Looking at the "big sister" in front of her, who gave her the gentlest and most loving smile, seemingly radiant with warmth...

At this moment, the Zashiki-warashi's large eyes, filled with unease and fear, uncontrollably became slightly moist.

She hesitated for a long time.

Finally, slowly, she extended her small, fair, and adorable hand, full of trust, and gently placed it in that beautiful, all-encompassing, and tender palm, which was full of warmth and kindness.

"……Um."

She let out a soft, nasal sound, barely louder than a mosquito's buzz, filled with affection and dependence.

……

And so, this warm yet noisy "big family," filled with "strongmen" and "monsters," welcomed a brand new, most special, and youngest "family member."

She lacked strong combat abilities.

No, there is no power sufficient to destroy the world.

But her pure "spiritual energy," full of "good fortune," was like the gentlest and warmest spring breeze, silently nourishing every corner of this home.

For example, Rin Tohsaka's brow, which was always furrowed because of the "fiscal deficit," finally relaxed completely.

For example, the Akame sisters' faces, which were always filled with resentment because of the "shortage of pudding," were once again filled with happy and satisfied smiles.

Even the "Black Knight King," who is always cold, indifferent, and seemingly unconcerned about everything in the world, was surprised to find that today's episode of "Little Bear Baby Food Show" was more interesting than any of his previous episodes, scoring 4.6.

Gu Chuan, on the other hand, simply leaned back on the sofa quietly, smiling as he looked at the perfect "picture" before him, filled with the warmth and authenticity of "family," a picture that belonged only to him.

He watched the adorable little one, being held gently in the arms of Matou Sakura, happily eating a specially made "kids' meal" filled with "love".

He looked at the "God of Fortune" who had long since completely integrated into this "big family" and no longer felt lonely, and a smile full of "kingly" absolute satisfaction appeared on his face.

This is his "courtyard".

One, filled with all sorts of interesting, beautiful, and powerful "monsters" and "gods," a unique and perfect one—

"--zoo".

And he, in this "zoo," is the only, supreme being—

"—The kindergarten director."

236 The King's Courtyard and the New Family

When that luxurious black Lincoln, carrying three beautiful "female executives" who had just completed their "business negotiations" and a huge "consulting fee" that would make any small or medium-sized country envious, returned to the warm and noisy apartment building, a brand new storm full of family atmosphere had already been quietly brewing.

"I am back."

Rin Tohsaka was the first to push open the apartment door with an aura of absolute queenly authority.

Her pretty face, which was always full of confidence and pride, no longer had the cold, elite business mask it once wore. Instead, it had an air of triumph, as if she had just won an epic battle!

Without any further preparation, she simply slammed the heavy bank draft, representing a staggering ten billion yen, which she had just withdrawn from the bank, onto the coffee table in the living room with an absolute, domineering air!

"Family financial crisis resolved!"

With a haughty, savior-like tone, as if proclaiming the gospel of God, she solemnly declared to her poor family members in the living room, who were already facing a survival crisis due to a shortage of pudding.

In that instant, the entire public area fell into an eerie, absolute silence.

Immediately afterwards, a thunderous roar of cheers erupted, more enthusiastic than ever before, filled with ecstasy and disbelief!

"Wow—! Long live Lord Rin!"

"Pudding! Pudding! I want ten!"

Red Eyes and Black Eyes, like two hamsters who had been starving for three days and three nights and had finally been fed by their keeper, let out a happy cry and were the first to rush toward the bank draft that represented an unlimited supply of desserts!

However, amidst this frenzied and cozy atmosphere filled with money and delicious food, a gentle, healing voice, tinged with a hint of confusion, suddenly rang out.

"Um... Rin-san..."

It's Matou Sakura.

Her beautiful eyes, which were always full of gentleness and kindness, now looked with a hint of curiosity and confusion towards the empty entrance hall.

"Do we have...a new guest?"

She just finished speaking.

A small figure dressed in a classic red kimono and with an adorable pigtail peeking out from behind the tall doorway, like a shy and timid little guest, cautiously peeked out with her tiny, cute head.

Her large, childlike eyes, as pure and clean as obsidian, filled with innocence and curiosity, timidly surveyed the new "home" before her—a place brimming with the aura of a powerful figure, bustling yet unexpectedly offering her a sense of warmth.

She is the willful "little tyrant" who has just been "rescued" from the cold, lonely "steel cage"—Zashiki-warashi.

"Oh my? Where did you find this adorable little girl?"

Leone was the first to show an expression of curiosity typical of an older sister.

Rin Tohsaka looked at the uninvited little girl and the pure, auspicious spirit emanating from her, and a knowing glint flashed in her jewel-like red eyes.

"It seems this is the real reward we were promised for this commission."

She muttered to herself in a shrewd, calculating tone, like a busybody.

Clearly, in her view, a living god of fortune who can bring good luck is far more valuable than a mere billion yen.
