Please play Fate/Go with me.

"Don't be shy! You were just worried about my (Yuihama's) performance, and you got a high score." The girl grabbed the boy's arm and pulled him outside.

"Speaking of which, you're my type, aren't you? Anyway, let's go on our date! Ah! Mashu, you can go back now." The fox-eared girl, true to her princess status, casually waved to Mashu, giving the order like a capricious master dismissing a servant.

"Wait, I can walk by myself." Shirou was pulled along by the girl's sword-class strength and couldn't stop even if he wanted to.

Mashu, who had been quietly standing to the side, blushing and secretly imitating the way adults communicated, suddenly realized that she was about to be abandoned.

"Ah! Senpai...?" Mashu stood there dumbfounded, somewhat at a loss. She watched helplessly as Shirou was pulled away, looking as aggrieved as a puppy left behind at home while its owner went on a honeymoon.

"Mash, you can't come along," the fox-eared girl said with a kind and gentle smile as she turned around.

Mashu, who had intended to follow quietly, had just taken a step when she was spotted and quickly withdrew her foot in fright.

"Gudako-senpai, the upperclassmen in this world are so scary! Don't underclassmen have any rights?"

Chapter 25 Heroic Spirits and the Department of Service

The fox-eared girl held the boy's hand as they walked down the street to a bustling commercial plaza. Because they were in an invisible alternate dimension, pedestrians on the roadside in front of them would accidentally pass right through them, which felt rather eerie.

"Unpleasant arguments and fights are things you'll always encounter if you want to date. Let's put my ex-boyfriend aside for now. Shirou! You'll be my temporary boyfriend for now, so let's practice our date! Next time, I want to go on a date with my Master who has a strong bond with me," the fox-eared girl said with a smile.

"It's possible, but there's not much we can do in this situation, is there?" Shirou said. Even if we went shopping, wouldn't it be rather boring to just look around? Besides, she would be with him. If she found someone more humorous, they could talk about interesting topics and make her happy.

"Ah... although I can't access things from the original world, I can watch a movie for free... I can scan some with the Magic Eye and probably project it with my 3D glasses."

"No way! If it's about sneaking into someone's house for thrills, that's a different story. But for a movie, the atmosphere really comes from lining up to vote together and sharing a cup of popcorn," Suzuka Gozen said.

“No, sneaking into someone else’s house is not a good idea,” Shirou objected.

"Actually, it's possible to enjoy life in the outside world, as long as it doesn't affect the rules of this world. I'm quite skilled at this kind of transformation technique. Since you've helped the humans of this world get rid of the monsters, accepting a little tribute wouldn't be a bad idea, would it?" Suzuka Gozen said with a sly smile.

The boys and girls now are actually in a different dimension outside the world. Although what they see is exactly the same as the world, there is actually a protective barrier between them.

The monsters are trying to break through this protective barrier and enter the world inside to do something.

The summoned heroic spirits can also move around in the barrier space, and people outside cannot see them.

With the right skills, one can still interact with real objects in the real world by possessing a physical body; the key is to avoid being discovered.

"Ah! That! I remember seeing this child eat it before, I want to try it too! Shirou, let's go!" The fox-eared girl pulled the boy across the road.

There were four little girls standing by the crepe stand, chatting as they held the crepes they had just received.

The girl with long yellow hair and a red bow in her hair was the most excited, waving her crepe that she hadn't eaten yet.

"There's a flaw!" Suzuka Gozen instantly activated her Transformation Technique, entering the real world in a transparent state. She opened her mouth, snatched the crepe, swallowed it, and returned to her spirit form with a sly smile.

"So sweet~! This is the kind of crepe that high school girls like these days. I feel like my femininity has increased again." The fox-eared girl savored the crepe and exclaimed with a smile.

"Haa..." Shirou finally understood why this celestial princess was previously known as a thief; now, she was more like a thief high school girl, a slightly dangerous existence.

"That's why I said, although Illya's magical girl is great, Helena is super cute too, and the nursery rhyme style is wonderful. The magical girls in FGO are really good. All the girls in it are just as cute as Miraculous." The blonde girl said excitedly, putting the crepe to her mouth and biting into empty air. Looking down, she realized that all she had left in her hand was the wrapper.

"Huh? Where's my crepe?" the blonde girl, Kyoko Toshino, exclaimed in surprise.

"You ate it yourself, didn't you?" the black-haired girl next to her complained.

"Wait a minute, there's no sweetness at all in my mouth. Akari-chan! It really is you, isn't it!" Kyoko Toshino pointed a finger at the red-haired girl beside her.

"I didn't do it, Kyoko-chan, why are you blaming Akarin?" the red-haired girl Akaza Akari asked, feeling wronged.

The blonde girl pushed up her air glasses and made a famous deduction, saying, "Besides you, who else in this world has mastered the art of concealing their presence without a teacher and can appear behind me silently? Could it be that an Assassin-class Servant from FGO jumped out of my phone?"

“Akarin doesn’t have those kinds of exaggerated skills!” Akaza Akari retorted angrily.

"So I'll take your crepe without hesitation, haha!" Kyoko Toshino suddenly opened her mouth wide and took a big bite out of the crepe in Akaza Tamamo.

"Akarin's strawberry crepe! How could this happen!" The girl cried out in heartache as she looked at her crepe, which she had only taken a small bite of, and now was less than a quarter of its original size. Her body, devastated, gradually turned transparent.

Shirou silently memorized the red-haired girl's buns that looked like they could be launched out of the air, and thought to himself, "Sorry, girl... if we meet again next time, I'll treat you to another meal."

"Huh? Girl, where have you been?"

After that, the Heavenly Maiden Princess continued to act on her whims, dragging the girl around everywhere.

Shirou was initially worried that appearing in this world might have some negative consequences. After all, this world seemed to be very hostile to mysterious beings. If he caused any disturbance here, the backup plan used to deal with the invading monsters might be used against the Heroic Spirits instead.

However, it seems that since they possess physical bodies from this world and their souls have merged with heroic spirits, they are at least two-thirds human and one-third heroic spirit.

After all, he had used magic in this world before through his Mystic Eyes, and nothing happened then. As long as he doesn't do anything destructive, it seems he won't be rejected.

After Suzuka Gozen enjoyed the sweet treats that high school girls usually eat, Shirou was dragged by the girl to the arcade. She stole a few game tokens and started playing. A staff member who came over noticed that the game was playing even though no one was around.

As if they had witnessed a supernatural phenomenon, the teenagers rubbed their eyes and quickly left, leaving behind bewildered staff who thought the machine had malfunctioned.

Arriving at the ice cream shop again, Suzuka Gozen tried to repeat her old trick, but Shirou dragged her away.

The girl wanted to visit the clothing stores that JK (high school girl) students would frequent.

"Shirou, let's go to this shop again, there are so many beautiful clothes," the fox-eared girl said, pulling the boy towards the inside.

"Hey! Suzuka, this is a lingerie store, isn't it?" Shirou stopped and called out to the girl.

"It's okay, no one can see us anyway. Oh! This is the legendary battle of panties!" Suzuka Gozen shook off her hand and ran into the store, admiring the brightly colored lace-trimmed clothes on the rack.

"No, in a way, it's worse if we can't see it," the boy complained, looking at the bright and colorful interior of the store, unsure whether he should go in or not.

At that moment, the voice came from the spirit within my heart.

Teacher Qiao reminded him, "Shirou, as a man, I think being a charming young man is a good thing. I once received a BMW as a gift from a witch, but doing lewd things is not allowed."

"I won't do anything indecent, you know," Shirou retorted. However, appearing in the lingerie store completely transparent was a bit too much of a shock for the hormone-fueled body of a high school boy.

Teacher Qiao praised, "That's good. A man's charm lies in his strong body and firm spirit, which can serve women. During the day, he can make the girl he likes feel comfortable and happy, and then at night, when both of them are deeply in love, things will naturally fall into place."

“Teacher George, you know so much.” Shirou nodded, impressed.

Because he felt awkward going in, Shirou simply stood outside the door and chatted with Joe in his mind. As a famous hero, Joe had a wealth of life experience.

Shirou could then ask his teacher how he won the witch's favor and how he rode the warhorse the witch gave him to save the princess from the dragon's jaws.

PS2: [I'm now suspecting that there might be some secret society or evil force behind Bookke that wants authors to wear women's clothing.]

Chapter 26 The First Encounter Between a Young Girl and a Young Boy

Through his conversation with this Heroic Spirit, Shirou gained a deeper understanding of the summoning system and felt that his compatibility with George R.R. had increased.

"Hey!" The girl suddenly appeared and patted the boy on the back. "Seriously, what are you laughing about all by yourself in front of the lingerie store? Let's go, next store!"

"Huh? Is it already done?" Shirou asked in surprise, thinking that the girl wouldn't be out for at least half an hour picking out clothes.

"Well, I've already researched it. If needed, I can just use transformation magic to make it. What? You want to see?" The fox-eared girl blinked her golden eyes and looked at the boy seductively.

The girl, with her hands behind her back, walked backwards facing the boy, revealing a playful yet meaningful smile, and said:

"No way, Shirou-kun, my signature lingerie is only for my boyfriend to see. Or do you want to be my boyfriend?"

"Is that so? That's a real shame! Let's go to the next shop instead." Shirou said casually as he stepped forward and led the way.

"Tch..." The fox-eared girl curled her lip and quickly followed.

The young girl and boy walked one after the other, continuing their aimless stroll through the streets.

"Ah! This! I want to film this!" the fox-eared girl suddenly said, pointing to a pink, house-like machine on the side.

Shirou frowned when he saw the machine the girl was pointing to and said, "A photo booth?"

The machine is pink with various colorful stickers and has a sign that says "No single men allowed."

The so-called photo booths are practically forbidden places for single people. Isn't this just like the blatant discrimination against Chinese people and dogs in the Bund Park in the French Concession of Shanghai?

This is partly due to numerous egregious incidents of suspicious men installing hidden cameras in photo booths and even in the ceiling. Therefore, photo booths have a clear rule that men can only enter when accompanied by a woman.

"Stop daydreaming, let's go!" The fox-eared girl dragged the boy inside.

This was Shirou's first time inside a photo booth, and he looked around, finding it all very novel.

"Shirou, look at the screen! Get in this pose too! We're about to take the picture!" Yui Hama urged, shaking the boy's arm.

"Oh...oh." Shirou snapped out of his daze, and mimicking the girl's gesture, made half a heart shape in front of the screen.

It's a little embarrassing, and we even took a picture. Was it really necessary to get so close?

The big screen flashed, and then the photo appeared: a sweetly smiling girl hugging a boy, one of her hands forming a heart shape with the boy, inside which a pink heart was jumping.

The moment Shirou saw the photo, both the Heroic Spirit within Yuihama and Shirou were simultaneously satisfied.

The armor on Shirou's body disappeared, and the girl seemed to have returned to a state where she was in control of her own body.

Upon seeing the girl recover, Shirou explained the origin of the world and then made a promise.

"Yuihama, I'm really sorry for getting you involved in this. If you don't want to, I won't force you to face these monsters anymore."

“No, I feel really good to be able to help, in fact, it has to be this way. Isn’t this what Shirou and Yukino were talking about before?” Yuihama said, shaking her head.

"Well, it's not that I wanted to hide it from you, I just didn't know the best way to explain it to you," Shirou said.

"I know you don't want me to be in danger, right? But I'm really happy that Shirou was able to summon me to help! That way, the three of us are partners again."

I saw you guys saying things I couldn't understand. I was worried about what would happen if someone was excluded..." Yuihama narrowed her eyes and revealed a genuine smile of relief.

“Yuigahama…” Shirou looked at the girl and understood that more than the danger of facing monsters, she was more interested in the feelings between the three of them regarding mysterious things like Heroic Spirits.

"Shirou, do you remember? The first time we met on the first day of first grade?" Yui asked softly.

"When we enter the classroom according to our assigned classes?" Shirou asked, puzzled.

"No! It was when we almost had a car accident! You really were the one who stopped the car then, right? With magic?" Yui had always thought it was a miracle, that the car suddenly broke down and stopped. But now, with her knowledge of Heroic Spirits, she finally understood the truth.

"Ah! It was the time the puppy almost got hit by the car." Shirou recalled that if he hadn't used his Mystic Eyes to calculate a safe way and forcibly braked the tires, the dachshund might have really been in an accident.

The girl first met Shirou on the morning of her first day of high school.

The girl was taking her dog for a walk. Because she seemed to be in a hurry, she was running the whole way. When they passed a traffic light, she lost her grip and Sabre suddenly darted off.

Just then, a black luxury car drove by, and it looked like it was about to hit him.

A sudden screech of brakes came from the road, and the black sedan miraculously stopped before hitting the puppy; no one was injured.

The car logo was a silver, forward-leaning goddess-like figure that looked very expensive.

He thought he would be severely reprimanded by the driver who got out of the car, but at that moment the boy appeared.

"Need any help? I work at a car repair shop. If it's not a big problem, I can fix it right away," the boy said confidently.

"Really? I'm in a hurry to get to school. If you can fix it, it will be a huge help." The anxious driver thanked the boy repeatedly, seeing his calm and reliable demeanor.

"Then let's send this child back first. We can't entirely blame her for the puppy suddenly rushing out," the boy suggested.

"Oh, of course. You should be more careful in the future. Whether it's a person or a dog, if there's an accident, it'll be terrible," the driver admonished her.

"Yes, I'm really sorry!" she apologized and was let off the hook.

It was because of the boy's appearance that she was rescued from the predicament and was not blamed.

Now I understand, even Sabre was saved by the boy; it was like a fateful encounter, like a prince rescuing a princess.

The boy must have forgotten these minor details, after all, he's the kind-hearted person who would always step forward to help anyone in need.

But the girl clearly remembered that the boy was calm and composed when talking to the adults, and then quickly repaired the car. He was really cool.

Later, wanting to change her personality of always agreeing with others and lacking her own opinions, she took the opportunity of making cookies and, on the recommendation of teacher Shizuka Hiratsuka, joined the Service Club, where she met a boy and Yukinoshita, and the three of them became good friends.

At first, she only regarded the boy as a good friend, but she didn't know when she fell in love with him, and everything changed.

In fact, Suzuka Gozen had already returned control of her body to her a long time ago, a fact that Yuigahama Yui would never say aloud.

"To go on a date with someone I like" is the wish of the heroic spirit possessing the girl, and also the girl's wish.

Yui Yuigahama had countless times imagined going shopping and playing with the boy together.

But doing that feels a bit cunning, like sneaking away, and it could hurt the people who are important to you.

But right now, if we're only talking about today, then yes, that's fine.

This was originally the Heroic Spirit's request, so it's fine then.

If possible, the girl would like to hold hands with the boy and go shopping, and then have dinner together in a very trendy restaurant, but that's impossible this time.

But... it's fine as it is for now. Sooner or later, I'll definitely say those words. Until then, let's all enjoy high school life together.

"I can't figure out things that are too complicated, but no matter what happens, the three of us shouldn't keep things from each other..." Yui said, lowering her eyebrows and remaining silent for a while. When the girl looked up, she patted her face and revealed her usual cute smile.
