Please play Fate/Go with me.

"After watching the fireworks, we'll go to the komachi house to celebrate her successful enrollment, right? You won't be able to eat dinner then," Yukinoshita reminded her friends.

On Tuesday, the international high school released its acceptance list, and Komachi was accepted. So, after watching the fireworks, they decided to invite everyone to the Hikigaya house for a lively celebration.

"Komachi, we prepared a cake for you at home," Shirou said, looking at his sister.

"It's okay, it's okay! I eat sweets with a different stomach!" Komachi said with a grin as she took a bite of a candied hawthorn.

“That’s right! Let’s buy candied apples and cotton candy after we watch the fireworks!” Yui nodded in agreement.

At that moment, everyone's cell phones rang simultaneously and vibrated violently.

"Everyone, this is terrible! The monster horde is rampaging across the nearby hills. Sensing a massive magical reaction, this is going to be very dangerous!" Xiao Da suddenly ran out and shouted.

"Didn't they say that ordinary monsters can't break through the barriers of another dimension?" Shirou and the girls exchanged a glance and quickly ran towards the mountain where the other dimension had appeared.

When they arrived at the hill and looked up, they saw a giant red dragon coiled on the pavilion at the top of the hill. Magic was gathering in its open mouth, and it seemed to have mutated. Its wings on its back had turned into thin, crystalline gemstones, and it seemed to be unable to fly.

However, it continuously absorbs the magic power from the other dimension into its body, and every once in a while, the quality of the magic power gathered in the dragon's mouth increases.

At this moment, one could already sense the dangerous aura that threatened to destroy everything.

The red dragon raised its long neck and noticed the boys and girls who had broken in.

The dragon stretched its neck, poked its head out from the stone steps, locked its gaze on the boy and girl, and spewed out a scorching crimson beam of breath. The terrifying power it displayed at this moment was at least at the level of an A-rank anti-military Noble Phantasm, and it blasted straight down the mountain.

Mash rushed to the front, raised her giant cross shield, activated her Noble Phantasm, and the towering Camelot Castle rose up to block the destructive beam of light.

The wings of this mutated dragon are constantly absorbing magical power, and it can be felt that it is constantly strengthening itself. The power of the dragon breath it releases next time can only become stronger!

The entire mountain is covered in countless magical beast eyes that flash green and yellow lights in the darkness. There are probably thousands of them, and if you want to climb the mountain, there might not even be a place to stand.

"It's like a fortified gun emplacement," Mashu said, looking at the layers of dark shadows on the mountain and the dragon above them.

"And of all places, it has to be in a place with so many people!" Shirou summoned Merlin and used illusion magic to create a realistic illusion, isolating the entire mountain from the outside world to prevent the monsters from escaping, and also giving hints to the tourists nearby to stay away.

Komachi then pulled out her phone and looked at the monsters around her, saying, "Are these the monsters that my brother and the upperclassmen fought together before? They were really formidable! But it's okay! Now, as long as Komachi and my brother are together, our sibling duo is invincible!"

A spirited young girl dressed in samurai attire appeared here. Wearing a light blue haori and a long scarf, Komachi drew her famous sword, 'Kikuichimonji Norimune'!

The one who possesses Komachi is the peerless swordsman Okita Souji, who has developed the ultimate sword technique 'Myou Sandan-tsu'!

A gust of wind blew, causing the girl's scarf to flutter high. She tightened her grip on her sword, her sharp gaze fixed on the demonic dragon high above. In a dashing voice, she addressed the people behind her:

"These small fry are yours to handle, and the dragon at the top is for me, the genius swordsman! Watch me use my exquisite 'shrinking earth' footwork to instantly reach the mountaintop and take the dragon's head... Pfft, cough cough." Before she could finish speaking, Komachi covered her mouth, coughed, and squatted down, spitting out bright red stuff.

"Komachi! Are you alright? I'll treat you right now!" Shirou asked anxiously.

"Cough cough... It's nothing... Brother, I just coughed up the candied hawthorn I was choking on." Komachi, transformed into Sakura Saber, said weakly, squatting on the ground. "A-level Sickness passive skill is completely unnecessary..."

"That's enough... You can rest here." Shirou said helplessly. As expected of his own sister, how could she possibly be cool?

When it really comes down to it, he does make a foolish mistake or mess things up, even though he's already used to taking care of these kinds of people.

Chapter 68 Fireworks Never Wait for Anyone

Meanwhile, the organizers had already lit fireworks on the bridge outside, and the surrounding ground flashed with light and made a series of popping sounds. People watching in the park smiled as they looked at the sky.

Unbeknownst to anyone, on the hill behind the park, a group of young men and women were waging a fierce battle for them.

On the steps of the small mountain sealed by illusion, the gathered demonic beasts revealed a fierce emerald light and pressed down step by step.

At the summit platform atop the steps stood a pavilion, and atop the pavilion coiled a demonized red dragon. Its wings, pale red crystals, deepened in color as it absorbed the magic power of this alternate dimension. Upon closer inspection, one could see it lacked forelegs, its long neck stretched out, magic power gathering in its mouth, emanating a terrifying aura, seemingly about to unleash its previous crimson breath.

At this moment, Xiao Da flew out and said nervously, "Everyone! The data of the dragon at the top has been detected. Its class is Lancer. As a sub-dragon, this bipedal wyvern has mutated. Its crystallized wings have become magic absorption converters. Through the continuous amplification of magic power, it has now reached the level of a dragon. If left unchecked, it will become stronger and stronger. Please end the battle as soon as possible!"

From bottom to top, more than a dozen magically enhanced arrows flew towards the top of the stone steps, aiming directly at the head of the demonic dragon.

It turned out that Yukinoshita, who had possessed Atalanta, and Asuna, who had possessed Berserker-class Minamoto no Yorimitsu, were holding longbows and firing several arrows at the dragon.

Just as the arrows were about to fly over the long staircase and pierce the pavilion, small magical beasts on the platform above the staircase pounced out one after another, blocking all the arrows with their bodies.

On the long, sloping stone steps, the giant dragon standing atop the pavilion felt threatened. It retracted its long neck, crouched down, and hid its body in a blind spot below.

"Shirou, the angle is completely blocked. It seems that there's no way to kill that dragon if we try to climb the mountain," Asuna said, frowning as she put away her bow.

"What should we do? Although my Noble Phantasm can cover this entire area from the sky, I can't kill this kind of dragon with high defense in one go," Yukinoshita said.

"Are there any stronger Servants with higher burst damage? Maybe we can take it down before the dragon unleashes its next breath!" Shirou pondered.

"There's no other way, leave the defense to me! Seniors, please find a solution as soon as possible." Mash shouted, holding up her shield, but even her Noble Phantasm is not omnipotent, especially in this restricted world. If it is an attack outside the scope of the rules, the defense may be breached.

"Yuihama, it's up to you this time." Yukinoshita called out to the dango girl who was still staring blankly at her phone while holding a meat bun.

"I'm thinking about which character to summon." Yui noticed that a new character had appeared in the FGO system on her phone.

He shoved the meat bun into his mouth with dissatisfaction, pulled out his phone, and said, "Seriously! I really wanted to go shopping at the stalls together after watching the fireworks! I wanted to eat some sweet candied apples!"

At that moment, a Servant in the FGO system lit up with a gold frame and actively responded to the girl's summons.

A white light enveloped the girl, and in the spiritual world, the heroic spirit communicated with her.

Before Yuihama appeared a long-haired, blonde girl with two horns.

"Ibaraki-dōji, quickly help me defeat the demonic dragon on the mountain!" Yuihama exclaimed excitedly.

"Eh... I really want to go to that place with the snacks first," Ibaraki-dōji said casually.

"Ibaraki! I know! I'll take you to eat something delicious! So first, help us deal with the monster on the mountaintop!" Yui Hama said to the oni girl inside her.

"Hmph...Eh...Tell me what delicious food there is first?" Ibaraki-dōji paused, rolled his eyes, and couldn't help but ask.

“Yes…” Yuihama recalled the food stalls she had visited earlier.

First, there are classic sweets like marshmallows, candied apples, and glutinous rice balls, as well as freshly stir-fried noodles and rice noodles. Hot oden is also super delicious.

Because it's by the water, and a cold wind is constantly blowing, freshly baked large meat buns and fried foods are very popular at this time.

On the other side of the park, someone had set up a charcoal grill, placing roasted chicken and sparrows on it. The chickens were slowly rotated over a low flame, roasting them thoroughly until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Even the small bones inside were roasted until crunchy and edible. Customers could also have honey or hot sauce applied according to their preference.

If you're a customer who doesn't like meat, the owner will enthusiastically recommend the sweet potatoes roasting in another oven. Once you peel them, you'll see a bright orange color steaming hot, and the sweet aroma will immediately fill the air within a ten-meter radius.

The surrounding area was filled with the aroma of food, making even passersby who hadn't planned to come to see the fireworks salivate and unconsciously head over.

After watching the fireworks, they will go to Shirou's house to celebrate Komachi's admission to the international high school.

Once you get there, you'll find a big cake covered in cream, chocolate, and strawberries, as well as various dishes meticulously prepared by Shirou, including Roman-style roast meat he learned from Red Saber and Chinese cuisine, which he is already quite good at.

Although it was impossible to express it well in words, in the spiritual world, the scene imagined by Yuihama in her mind was clearly transmitted to Ibaraki-dōji's mind as the most convincing evidence.

At this moment, the blonde demon girl was already drooling, and she looked at the dumpling girl and praised her:

"Yui Yuigahama! You may be human, but you're a real expert at making delicious food. I've fallen for you! I really want to take you to Mount Oe so you can make delicious food for us."

"Hehe, thank you. Actually, I'm only good at finding places to eat. If you want to cook, you'll have to ask Shirou and Yukino to do it." Yuihama blushed slightly and scratched the back of her head, feeling a little shy after being praised.

"No, being able to eat is enough! Just bring over those who can cook and let them do it!" Ibaraki-dōji said.

"So, Ibaraki-dōji, are you willing to help me now?" Yuihama asked.

"Of course! Watch me quickly take care of the enemy, and then we'll go eat all the delicious food!" Ibaraki-dōji's eyes lit up as he readily agreed.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you, Ibaraki." Yuihama willingly handed her body over to the Heroic Spirit who was skilled in combat to control.

Chapter 69 Magic Fireworks Bloom

The moment the girl and the heroic spirit reached a consensus, their compatibility increased rapidly, reaching one hundred percent.

As the pillar of light fell, Ibaraki-dōji was officially born into the world.

Yuihama changed into a beige kimono with small floral patterns, her clothes open, and she wore a close-fitting white robe with a large Buddhist bead tied around her waist. A pair of crimson horns grew from her forehead, and she held a sharp bone knife. The magical power that surged from her body burned fiercely on her back in the form of flames, like a pair of huge fiery wings.

The horned girl pointed her sword at the demonic dragon on the mountain and said:

"I am Ibaraki-dōji! The leader of the oni of Mount Ōe. Although this is not Heian-kyō, if you want to hold a Hundred Demons Parade, it is basic etiquette to have the strongest oni lead the way! These ignorant demons will all be annihilated!"

"Hey! Human, I'll handle that monster dragon. You just need to clear out the surrounding minions."

A golden beam of light shot up the stairs from the ground, blasting the monsters above away.

Shirou, holding the sword in the stone, said to Ibaraki-dōji, "I know! I'm entrusting the dragon above to you! We'll clear the way for you."

"Oh, so you're Shirou, the one who's so good at making delicious food! I'm really looking forward to it! I'm going!" Ibaraki-dōji said, raising his bone sword and charging straight up the mountain.

Shirou waved his wand, using illusion magic to envelop Ibaraki-dōji's body in a thin mist, making him unimpeded by the monsters along the way.

Then, by gathering a portion of the magic power from the other dimension and bestowing it upon the recipient, the Flower Magician's greatest achievement and one of her proudest magic tricks is like nurturing an unparalleled king.

Within a short period of time, Ibaraki-doji's spirit origin state is reshaped, its flaws are repaired, and his stamina, magic power, and combat abilities are enhanced to the maximum extent.

The path that had been blasted open at the top of the stairs was quickly filled back up by the monsters that came running down.

"Leave the front to us!" Asuna rushed in front of Ibaraki-Douji and activated her Noble Phantasm.

"Tsk... Why is Raikou here too?" Ibaraki-dōji scoffed and continued running forward.

"—The Bull King summons lightning? The net of heaven is vast!" Asuna held her sword and unleashed a long bolt of lightning, clearing away the monsters in her path.

With her extraordinary speed, Atalanta leaped high into the air, drew her bow, and unleashed her Noble Phantasm, "Phoebus Catastrophe." A rain of arrows rained down from the sky, clearing away the monsters lurking on the mountaintop.

"Well done! The cat-eared female demon is now in my hands! Go forth, Murakahara Hi! — 'The Great Grudge of Rashomon'!"

Finally, Ibaraki-dōji leaped high into the air and shouted angrily. The moment he reached the top of the mountain, he threw a punch at the dragon on the pavilion.

A massive, crimson claw, wreathed in intense heat, shot out, shattering surrounding monsters into fragments and reducing them to ashes with a single touch. The claw gripped the mutated dragon's neck, forcibly twisting it, and the intense flames burning on the enormous claw instantly engulfed the dragon's entire body.

This was a demonic flame formed from the resentment of the demonic seed over a thousand years. It burned the grass and trees, burned the earth, burned the atmosphere, burned everything, and also burned away the demonic power that had been constantly accumulating in the demonic dragon's body. Finally, it exploded with a bang!

The dragon let out a miserable cry, and the energy gathered in its mouth dissipated. The chip wings on its back were smashed in two and fell to the ground.

"Hahaha!!! So what if it's a dragon? This is my overwhelming victory!" Ibaraki-dōji laughed as he raised his sword high and brought it down on the dragon's neck!

This bone knife was forged from the incredibly hard bones of the demon race, tempered and refined by the karmic fire of hell. It was extremely sharp and severed the dragon's neck in two, splattering blood everywhere.

After defeating the dragon, the other monsters no longer posed a threat.

With Mash in charge of defense and Shirou providing support using Merlin's magic, the girls absorbed magical energy to charge their Noble Phantasms during the battle. After several rounds, the monsters on the entire mountain were gradually wiped out.

"Haha, watch Komachi's move! One step, soaring through the air; two steps, seamless transition; three steps, the ultimate strike! — 'Mumyo Sandan Zuki'!!!"

Unfortunately, by this time the fireworks had already ended, and looking from the mountain towards the bridge, one could only see a few wisps of smoke in the moonlight.

"Ah... such a rare fireworks display," Yuihama said dejectedly.

“...Yes, it’s a real shame.” Mashu agreed with regret.

"Yes, there will be another fireworks display in the future. Let's go back and have a celebration for Komachi instead," Asuna said with a smile.

"Yes, if you pay a little attention, you'll definitely find some places holding fireworks displays. Let's go down the mountain," Yukino said, though she was somewhat disappointed.

“That makes sense… Ibaraki, you can hide inside my body now. I’ll go back to my normal form and then go buy something to eat,” Yui said to the Heroic Spirit inside her.

"Sure!" Ibaraki-doji cooperated by concealing his spirit dress, allowing the girl to return to her normal state. This was a new ability that could be used freely after the compatibility was at 100%.

"No, I'm a little unmotivated right now. I feel like I haven't shown my full strength at all," Komachi said, feeling conflicted. Although she managed to use her Noble Phantasm in the end, her opponent was just a weakling, so she was a little lacking in enthusiasm.

"It's alright, Komachi. As long as you get used to battles more and accumulate experience, you'll definitely become stronger! Hmm... Although being sickly is a skill, even the Holy Grail can't change that..." Mash comforted her.

"Isn't Komachi hopeless? Oh well... It's rare to see everyone so enthusiastic, so let's just go down the mountain..." Komachi said with a dead fish-like look that seemed to have given up on her dreams.

"No, everyone wait a minute." Shirou called out to the girls, then turned to the floating Xiaoda and asked, "May I use magic once for a purpose other than combat?"

"Well, as long as it's not destructive, and as long as the Heroic Spirit is willing, I think it's fine," Xiao Da nodded and said.

"Then let me be a little willful this time." So Shirou summoned Merlin to possess him, raised his staff high, and chanted the spell Merlin often used when he was traveling through his homeland with the immature girl for knightly training: "--Artoria, dinner's ready!"

Fireworks flashing with colorful light shot straight into the sky, rising abruptly in the night, then bursting into various shapes and vibrant colors. Some transformed into long blue fluorescent streams that shot straight into the sky, some bloomed into concentric purple-red rings of vortex, and some exploded into countless long lines that transformed into golden-orange and snow-white camellias...

The audience members, who had already set off to leave the park for dinner or to go home, stopped in their tracks, looked up in surprise, and gazed at the fireworks that were blooming again in the sky.

"so beautiful!"

Where did those fireworks come from?

No one knew that this was actually a little whimsical act by the boy on a whim. In order to make up for the regrets in the girls' hearts, Shirou borrowed Merlin's knowledge of illusion magic and made a slight modification to this "meal signal flare" magic.

On the chairs of the mountaintop platform, the boy holding the magic wand occasionally released a beam of light from the sky. He sat in a row with the girls, enjoying the experience of watching the fireworks from the VIP seats.

As the fireworks soared to their highest point and burst into bloom, their brilliant light illuminated the faces of everyone who looked up at the sky. Whether it was just my imagination or not, the fireworks always seemed warm and gentle. Perhaps it was the magic of a young person's heart, offering a sincere blessing to the world, hoping that everyone could attain peace and happiness.

Chapter 70 The Boy is About to Set Off

After the girls finished watching the fireworks and felt satisfied, they took Shirou down the mountain with them.
