Yes.

If everything Irisviel said was true, then it would make sense.

Because of Emiya Kiritsugu's death in the Fourth Holy Grail War, Illya's bloodline that was supposed to be "inherited" from Irisviel was also cut off.

"Then that man named Emiya Kiritsugu, didn't he have any close contact with you?"

“No.” Irisviel shook her head very reluctantly.

"You've met my husband, haven't you?"

"He...actually, he doesn't have any thoughts in that direction."

"Rather than having any contact with me, he'd rather be hunting down magicians."

"We've only met a few times—I'm probably not as good as his assistant, right?"

"..."

"Are you sure that what you said is true?" Scathach asked Irisviel in front of her.

"I don't want you to make a decision you'll regret for the rest of your life because of misinformation."

Although she didn't know why Scathach suddenly spoke so seriously, Irisviel quickly nodded.

"I promise that every word I say is true."

"I understand."

"In that case—" Scathach took Irisviel's hand and pulled Ian.

"Then I will specially allow you to become Ian's concubine."

"..."

"Um?!"

Ian never expected Scathach to make such a request.

[The Queen of Shadow Country certainly wouldn't have made such a request without a reason.]

【For her, this was just a way to protect Irisviel.】

[After all, even with Scathach's permission, Irisviel's departure from the Land of Shadows still constitutes a crossing of the "boundary between life and death."]

There is no way to predict what the consequences will be.

【but--】

[If she could become the concubine of the Kingdom of Shadows, then such an act would be equivalent to Scathach's daily outings.]

【In comparison, it is naturally much safer. 】

【certainly. 】

[This process naturally requires a special method of "proof."]

After understanding Scathach's intention, Ian became even more silent.

"Scathach, isn't this a bit..."

"I know." Before the man could finish speaking, Scathach had already changed the subject.

"I don't want to do this either - but in order to protect Irisviel to the greatest extent, I must agree to this."

"She's one of the few people I want to protect."

"..."

Just like when Irisviel touched Scathach's heart, the two people's positions were reversed at this moment.

Not wanting to embarrass anyone further, Irisviel nodded.

"I understand."

"Ian... I'll leave it to you then."

"..."

At this point, Ian knew that he had no choice but to accept Scathach's arrangement.

【This is a special contract.】

[Under Scathach's witness, you will establish a physical connection with Irisviel.]

[All of this is not due to lust, but out of the most kind protection.]

In a basement somewhere in Dun Scáith.

Under Scathach's "escort", Irisviel saw the blindfolded knight.

"This is……"

"You can't look at anything you shouldn't look at." The Queen of Shadow Country once again stated her position, "I'm not letting him vent his desires here."

"But you can rest assured, Irisviel."

"He did it voluntarily - so there's absolutely no problem with it."

"you……"

Irisviel's expression gradually changed from nervousness at the beginning to calmness.

"That means-"

"Is this actually proof that the three of us have become good friends?"

"...You can think so."

"I understand." Irisviel completely relaxed.

Dressed in snow-white, she was still as beautiful as the bright moon even in the basement of the City of Shadows.

"Mr. Ian, please come on!"

"……it is good."

Ian replied to Irisviel and took a few steps forward.

The Daughter of the Holy Grail, full of tragedy, has now become a cup in another sense.

This was a rather special act.

[Under Scathach's instruction, you filled Irisviel, the Lesser Holy Grail.]

This should have been a rather awkward process.

【But Irisviel doesn't want to embarrass you and Scathach. 】

[During this injection process, she has been openly joking with you.]

"This is what they call a fuck buddy online, right?", "Hmm...is this what they mean by molesting a woman?!"

[At the moment the filling was completed, she even thanked Ian.]

"Thank you, Ian, and that thing that has been persisting..."

Irisviel became your "concubine" and promised not to reveal the situation of the Shadow Kingdom.

This did ensure her safe return to Fuyuki City, and she even no longer needed to stay in Enzoyama because she had obtained the status of a "dead person."

【She was able to live with Illya in the Tōsaka family.】

"Really? Illya, you've made a good friend named Miyu? That's great."

"Where did you say Mom has been lately?"

"Well... Mom also wants to make good friends worth making close to her—the kind of friends who are willing to protect her."

[Irisviel's outcome made you and Scathach realize that all your efforts were not in vain.]

[You feel that one day in the future, she will reunite with you, Scathach.]

【only--】

It doesn’t stop there.

On the walls of the City of Shadows.

Scathach was flirting with Ian.

She touched her belly and said:

"It's all official—your martial arts skills haven't improved at all. Is it because you're obsessed with my body?"

"Scathach, you've come to me five times in one day...if you can see any progress, you'll be damned."

"But isn't this place full of ghosts?"

Scathach made this cold joke, and then suddenly froze there.

"What's wrong with you?" Ian asked after noticing this.

"Look over there—"

Scathach pointed to the distant sky of the Shadow Realm.

"Did a red dragon appear just now?"

"Red Dragon?"

Ian didn't expect that what made Scathach stop was something like this.

"Right—if you don't believe me, look over there!"

The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows showed a rare excitement.

That was a reaction that only occurred when seeing a legendary creature - in other words, she had the urge to hunt it.

In view of this, Ian's gaze followed Scathach's finger and looked into the distance.

Soon, he saw the creature the other party mentioned.

In the distant sky, there were lightning, thunder, and strong winds. A dragon with a red body and huge wings was soaring in the sky.

The huge wings would occasionally stir up waves in the air, making it look very majestic.

"It's a real dragon..."

Even though it was the first time he saw it, Ian couldn't help but sigh.

But...why does it feel familiar?

Before Ian could take a few more glances at it, the huge red dragon disappeared in front of them, leaving only the broken clouds, silently telling of its presence.

[This is a "meeting" that neither you nor Scathach had ever expected.]

[You have seen the legendary red dragon.]

[You vaguely feel that things are moving in an inevitable direction.]

Late at night, in the Queen's room in Dun Scáith.

Scathach and Ian slept in the same bed.

only--

Neither the queen, who had already taken off her formal attire, nor the knight who had been invited to this kingdom, had any desire to fall asleep.

And they also know what each other is thinking at the moment.

"Ian—"

"You're probably still awake, aren't you?"

"Yeah." Ian responded quickly to Scathach's question.

"Scathach, if I'm not mistaken, you should still be thinking about the red dragon you saw today, right?"
