Emiya Mumei simply smiled as he looked at her.

"Gurgle... What's wrong with you, staring at me like that..."

Rin Tohsaka quickly looked away because she couldn't stand the feeling of eye contact, and said softly.

"It's nothing, it's just that I think you're always incredibly cute, Rin."

With a smile, Wuming uttered words that made Rin's mind explode.

"What are you saying, you rascal!"

The extreme of shame and anger turned into rage. Almost losing her mind, Rin Tohsaka grabbed a cushion from the sofa and pounced on Wuming, pinning him down and launching a frenzied attack with the cushion in her hand.

"Oh dear, it's just the truth, why get angry?"

"Shut up! Stop nagging! Go to hell, you bastard!"

"Hey, hey, don't hit my nose!"

"Pervert! Pervert!"

"Are you possessed by someone? Hey, don't just punch me!"

"I don't need your praise! You jerk! You just left without even contacting me! You jerk!"

"……sorry."

"..."

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent. Only then did Wuming notice Rin sitting on his lap, her eyes clearly red. He reached out to hug her, but Rin quickly got up and returned to the sofa.

"Just now, I was just confused and said something nonsense. I didn't mean it that way!"

"Yes, I got it, Rin."

Getting up from the floor, Wuming looked at Rin, who was sitting on the sofa with her back to him, clearly sulking. He couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"What's with that expression? She really doesn't want to talk to me!"

She miscalculated. Although her back was to him, Rin was still observing him through the reflection in the window directly in front of her.

"I'm just annoyed with myself. I got carried away playing with Rin and forgot about the important matter."

"Who wants to play with you!"

Ignoring Rin Tohsaka's loud rebuttal, Emiya Mumei's expression turned serious. He straightened up and asked very earnestly, "Rin, you're sixteen years old this year, right?"

"Of course, you have to be sixteen years old to join the action group. Why are you asking that?"

"Yes, in this country, sixteen is considered an adult. So, Rin, you're old enough to find a job, rent an apartment on your own, and—get married and have children, aren't you?"

"Yes, yes, yes, you can work, you can rent a place, you can... Ugh, you, you, what are you saying?"

Taking a few steps forward, Wuming bypassed the sofa and walked directly to Rin Tohsaka.

"What I mean is, shouldn't the clever Lady Rin have already guessed it? Am I right, my Lady Rin?"

Looking at that flustered and bewildered little face, Wuming felt a strange sense of pleasure and joy.

He stretched out his hands, bracing them against the sides of the sofa, forcing Lin Zhong, who was sitting on the sofa, to face him. Lin Zhong's face was flushed with embarrassment and he looked flustered, but Wu Ming could clearly sense a faint expectation hidden in his evasive eyes.

"What are you going to do...?"

Rin's voice of resistance weakened considerably.

"I want to propose to you, Miss Rin."

With an extremely serious tone, Wuming stretched out a hand in front of Rin and produced a small diamond ring as if by magic.

"Marry me, Rin!"

…………

Section 44, Chapter 1: An Encounter During a Vacation

Early summer, the afternoons can be a bit hot, but overall it's still a warm season, making it a perfect time for travel.

Mrs. Irisviel of the Emiya family suggested a family trip. Considering that she was still able to move around a little, and to ensure she was in a good mood before giving birth, Kiritsugu Emiya decided to take the whole family on a road trip. Shirou Emiya, Illya, Chloe, and the two maids—a total of seven people—went on a road trip.

Wuming was not included because he had more important things to do.

The leader of Group Six, Ryougi Shiki, also chose to travel during her vacation. It seems that Ori's description of her trip caught her attention, and the two identical girls decided to travel together. Kokutou Mikiya, who couldn't take a vacation due to a significant increase in workload, expressed his desire to do so, but was then forced back to work by his superior.

Li Cheng remained at home taking care of the child. He had no plans to travel; for him, nothing was more important than Xi. It could be said that this man had essentially entered the mindset of a father. During his vacation, he began taking tide to various famous restaurants around the city, especially buffets, for a feast.

From that day on, rumors began to circulate in all the buffets in the city about a little girl with blonde hair, about this incomparably terrifying being, and about the extreme fear that was dominated by her.

Of course, at the same time, Li Cheng was also working hard to learn cooking skills, trying to make food that would satisfy Shio even more. Through long-term unremitting efforts, he is now close to 0.1 times that of Emiya Shirou, which can be described as rapid progress.

Even if he doesn't improve, tide won't complain about his food; she'll definitely eat it all up.

The damage to the buildings and the ravaged mountains were quickly repaired. In a world with advanced combat capabilities like those of transcendent beings, restoration engineering is a very important field of study and has long been developed. Therefore, in just a few days, the ruins were restored to their original condition.

The most troublesome part remained the compensation and arrangements for the wounded and the dead. The fact that two Beyonders clashed in the city without any prior warning was a grave dereliction of duty on the part of the Japanese government. Moreover, the very next day, rumors began circulating online that the maintenance costs for the Beyonder detection equipment had been embezzled for years, making it easy to circumvent the situation. This escalated the situation further, forcing high-ranking officials to issue daily apologies, some even weeping and begging for forgiveness.

However, this has nothing to do with the people in Group Six who are on vacation. None of them would be interested in getting involved in such a mess.

"tide, how is it? This ice cream is pretty good, isn't it?"

At the counter, Li Cheng smiled as he looked at Xi, who was gently licking an ice cream cone beside him.

"Uh-huh!"

With all her energy focused on dealing with the sweet ice cream in front of her, tide simply nodded subconsciously.

Lee Seung-in let her sit in her seat and eat ice cream. He turned to look at the TV next to him and happened to see news that a prison building on the edge of the mountains in New Tokyo Ward had been damaged due to the aftermath of the battle between the Transcendents, and that several prisoners had escaped.

"These days, there are always all sorts of unsettling things."

Casually remarking on the increasingly unstable international situation, and resolving to keep a closer eye on tide recently, Li Cheng withdrew his gaze and stopped watching the television.

"After we finish eating, is there anywhere you'd like to go, tide?"

"Uru ru—"

"Swallow the ice cream first, don't rush, don't choke."

"Uruguay—Amusement Park!"

"Sigh," Li Cheng said, somewhat surprised, "Haven't we already been there twice?"

"Amusement park!" tide raised one hand and said loudly, "And there are rides I've never been on. I want to go on them all!"

"Is that so? Haha, okay then, let's go."

"Okay, let's go!"

Having made up their minds, the two, one big and one small, went to the amusement park hand in hand. For the rest of the afternoon, Li Cheng took Xi to explore the entire park, letting her play whatever interested her and buying her whatever she wanted to eat. They played until 4:30 pm, when they ran into an acquaintance in a pavilion.

"Kamijou, you're here too?"

"Hey, Senior Li?"

A somewhat haggard-looking boy with spiky hair, dressed in a simple shirt and shorts, was searching for something. He suddenly looked up and saw Li Cheng, so he quickly stood up straight and greeted him with a serious expression, almost bowing respectfully.

"It's not work time now, so there's no need to be so formal. I'm not as meticulous as Emiya, so normal conversation is fine."

As he spoke, Li Cheng noticed the obvious worry between Kamijou Touma's brows, and recalling his earlier searching actions, he couldn't help but ask:

"Did you lose something? I've been looking for it around here."

"Ah," Touma Kamijou said helplessly, scratching his head and looking distressed, "I lost my phone, so I've been looking for it, though I probably won't find it again..." His last sentence gradually turned into a soft, resentful whisper, as if he had become accustomed to and despaired of such things.

"Do you need any help?"

Li Cheng didn't notice the subtle changes in Kamijou Touma's expression and words, but simply offered his help enthusiastically. However, Kamijou Touma politely declined, saying, "This kind of thing is very common for me. Generally speaking, the chances of finding it are slim, and even if it is found, it's usually just remains or something like that..."

He seemed quite curious about tide, who was following Li Cheng around, clinging to his clothes and hiding behind him, looking rather shy.

"Is this your daughter, Li-senpai?" Kamijou Touma bent down slightly to meet Shio's gaze, gave her a friendly smile, and tried to greet her, "Hello, my name is Kamijou Touma, what's your name?"

"Tsk—"

tide, looking disgusted, hid on the other side.

"Why...?" Touma Kamijou looked devastated. "What did I do wrong? The air conditioner broke this morning and I woke up because it was too hot, the hot water valve for showering was broken and I could only take a cold shower, the breakfast shop closed early when I went out, I stepped in dog poop, I brought Index to the amusement park and lost my money, then I lost my phone, and now even a little girl is disgusted with me."

Kneeling on the ground, hands supporting his weight, Touma Kamijou screamed in utter despair:

"What a misfortune!!!"

The voice was so desperate, so sorrowful, that even Li Cheng, who had experienced countless battles, couldn't help but feel a pang of regret. He helped up Kamijou Touma, who was almost completely exhausted, and said earnestly, "It's fate that we met today. I'll give you something. I just heard you say that you brought a girl to the amusement park. Losing your money there wouldn't be a good thing."

"No, no, I can't take your money, senior," Touma Kamijou said firmly. "I've encountered this kind of thing many times before, and I can figure out a solution myself."

Have you encountered that many times? Kamijou-kun, just how unlucky are you?

However, it seems that this child is quite persistent, so it's definitely not feasible to help him directly.

"Then I'll lend you some. When you get your internship salary, you can treat Xi and me to a buffet." Li Cheng put it another way.

"No, that's not a good idea either, we should..."

"So you look down on me as a senior?"

Before Kamijou Touma could finish speaking, Li Cheng immediately interrupted him. At the same time, he stared at Kamijou Touma with an extremely authoritative gaze.

"Gu..."

Kamijou Touma was struck by fear.
