Shirou, who returned from the Fairy Kingdom

"Master! What did you do to Miss Assassin?"

"Why does she seem so angry?" Leticia asked curiously.

Fiore said, "Really, you can't not be more gentle with women, Mr. Saber."

Atalanta said, "Very well, the troublesome woman is finally gone."

What's going on... these three guys seem really happy...

Shirou then explained to them what had happened in the room.

Semiramis asked me why I saved her last night and demanded that I tell her the truth, so I did.

"Your eyes look a lot like my wife from a past life"... This sentence seems to have hit a nerve with her.

Ah, looking back now, those words were indeed very ominous; they sounded extremely unlucky.

The three men looked pale: "………………And then?"

"Semiramis said that she would take over my magic supply from now on, and then stormed out of the room."

Shirou scratched his cheek a little sheepishly: "So, did I mess it up?"

"..."

Laetitia, Atalanta, and Fiore displayed an unprecedentedly cold expression.

"I don't know, please figure it out yourself."

……

……

Because he always caused trouble, Shirou was listed as someone prohibited from entering the infirmary, but even so, it could not deter his determination.

Taking advantage of the shift change between the android girls, Shirou sneaked in.

"...Aigo".

It was as if time and space around them had stopped, and Aigo's beauty remained undiminished even in her slumber.

Shirou sat quietly on the edge of the bed, tidying the girl's slightly messy hair.

Although he had given up all his desires during the Holy Grail War, Shirou hopes that Aika can wake up if he can still obtain the Holy Grail now.

After saying his final goodbyes before the final battle, the boy got up from the bedside.

At that moment, "that" on the bedside table caught Shirou's attention.

"No way, it's a bento box...?"

The unbelievable sight made Shirou blink repeatedly.

Food that shouldn't exist.

An impossible dish.

The Yggdrasil race living in the castle are all Europeans, and the artificial lifeforms working here have not learned how to cook Japanese food.

In this castle, there are only two people who know how to make bento boxes.

One is Shirou, and as for the other—

He turned to look at the sleeping beauty on the hospital bed.

"Aige, did you make this for me?"

Although it is absolutely impossible, the undeniable facts are right in front of us.

A certainty arose in Shirou's heart, and he murmured to himself as he opened the bento box.

It contained sandwiches and rice balls.

Aika seems to regard sandwiches as a traditional British dish that has existed in Britain for 1500 years, and is very enthusiastic about feeding them to Shirou.

Toasted bread, slightly charred on both sides, sandwiched with roasted chicken wrapped in lettuce and tomato.

Shirou took out a piece and took a big bite.

Mmm, it really does taste familiar.

"It's delicious... no, it tastes even better than before."

Shirou, his mouth full of sandwiches, turned his gaze to the rice ball.

"Your skills have improved, Aigo."

Amazed by Shirou's cooking skills, Aika has been undergoing Spartan-style training ever since. Has she finally reached that level?

That is to say-

The princess of the origin can easily transcend even time and space.

This is the dish that "Sajō Aika from the future" handed to Shirō.

—The awakening of the young girl is imminent.

……

……

And so, humanity's last day arrived with the gentle sunlight.

As the sun rose, Shirou and his party left the castle where they had become very accustomed to living.

Unlike the previous decisive battle, this time the participants include not only Heroic Spirits, but also surviving magicians and artificial life forms.

Since failure means certain death, it's better to increase combat strength as much as possible, that's what Gold and Dur said.

Of course, the reason why magicians and androids can also be considered combatants is mainly because of someone—

Semiramis provided everyone with enhancements from the magical realm.

"Oh, this looks much better than the useless Caster."

"Who do you think I am? And speaking of which... don't compare me to that guy."

The women of the "Red" camp are also happily listing Shakespeare's faults today, wondering just how unpopular he really is.

The group then traveled by car to Henry Coander International Airport, the closest airport to Tulipas.

Along the way, Fiore had already indicated that all the Heroic Spirits could switch to their battle attire.

The airport had been booked by Yggdrasilia a week ago, ceasing civilian operations. It is now being used jointly by the Yggdrasil Clan and the Mage's Association for the war against Metatron.

"When did you become so close to the people in the association?"

Shirou asked in surprise, but Fiore shook her head.

She wasn't the one who brought the Yggdrasil back to the side of the Mage's Association; the one who secretly communicated and completed the cooperation was the new head of the Fulvig family.

"Koles?"

Fiore nodded with satisfaction: "You've really grown a lot, so I can rest assured now."

Speaking of which, Saber, what is that?

The girl looked curiously at Shirou's waist, where a metal sphere was hanging where his sword should have been.

"This...it's actually a relic of the 'Black' Berserker..."

During the last decisive battle, while Shirou and his companions were engaged in fierce combat with the "Red" faction, Astolfo got lost in the Hanging Gardens.

And then, while he was lost, this is what he found—

"The chastity of a maiden" is a warhammer component embedded in the heart of Berserker Frankenstein.

Astolfo felt that Shirou was closest to Frankenstein, so it was better to entrust this to him for safekeeping.

This probably won't be of any use in the battle against the Angel Legion.

The Savior's treasury contains countless weapons that are older and more powerful than it.

Even so, Shirou still felt warm as if he were enveloped in some kind of light when he wore it.

good……!

Although she is my adopted daughter whom I have only known for a short time, I will fight alongside her, carrying the ashes of my deceased daughter!

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the airport.

There were hardly any people inside the airport—not a single taxi, passenger, or even security guard.

Only at the airport entrance were there men dressed in black suits standing guard, not ordinary guards.

Ten Boeing 747 passenger planes purchased by Fiore were parked on the tarmac outside.

The airport lease was funded by Fiore, and the ten second-hand aircraft were part of Danic's legacy.

After everything was ready, the group boarded the plane controlled by the golem.

In terms of personnel, Shirou and Leticia traveled in the same plane.

They were the core of this operation, the group that would reach the highest point under the cover of the others and confront Metatron himself.

Before their final farewell, Shirou let Atalanta snuggle into his arms and act coquettishly for a while, which earned him a lot of eye-rolls from Leticia and the others.

But there was no other way, since Atalanta would lose motivation if they didn't agree to her request.

These are all necessary sacrifices made to save the world!

"Really? I get the feeling you're enjoying it."

Semiramis spoke coldly as she dragged Atalanta away from Shirou; the two of them would be traveling together on the same plane later.

"Lord Saber."

"father!"

A female voice called out to Shirou, and a petite figure pounced on his back from behind.

When did I get another daughter?!

Shirou turned around in confusion, then froze on the spot.

"How could this be...who are you...?"

Liu Dao Lingxia and the "Black" assassins—a mother and daughter who should have already left the stage—appear.

Shirou asked in surprise, "Didn't we tell you to go to Finland?"

With a smile, Liu Daolingxia recounted her journey with Jack the Ripper from leaving Romania to arriving in Finland and being protected by the Edelfeld family.

“I now work at the mansion and live with Jack.”

As she said this, Rokudou Reika, holding her black and white maid outfit dress, gracefully twirled in front of Shirou.

"What do you think of this outfit, Lady Saber?"

"Hmm...it suits you perfectly."

"Wow! Daddy's blushing!"

The silver-haired little girl assassin, perched on Shirou's back, shouted excitedly.

"Stop talking nonsense."

Shirou coughed lightly, then asked, "Since you've finally... settled down, why are you back again!?"

Liu Daolingxia said solemnly, "Because the young lady... the Edfield family has also decided to join the war."

"So, it was Luvia who asked you to come?"

Shirou frowned upon hearing this.

Although he did not know Luvia of this world, the girl he knew would never allow a mother and daughter who had escaped the vortex of war to return to the mire.

"That's not the case, you've misunderstood."

Liu Daolingxia said, "Miss Luvia never asked us to participate in the war. It was Jack and I who decided to come."

Honestly, I don't think the extinction of humanity has anything to do with me. Has the world degenerated to the point that it needs someone like me to save it?

However—if it can help you, I would be more than willing to give my life.

Lord Saber, perhaps you don't remember, but I once told you, "I will repay this kindness someday."

"Please guide me, Dad!"
