Shirou, who returned from the Fairy Kingdom

She felt something extremely cold.

The Fairy Queen lowered her head—

The red-haired boy, holding the golden sword of choice, expressionlessly pierced her chest.

Faced with the enchanting words of the fairy queen, Shirou chose to end her domination through physical means.

Fairy Princess was stunned for a moment, then showed a relieved expression.

"I see, indeed... this is what Arthur should be doing..."

With a satisfied yet poignant smile, the silver-haired witch gracefully fell backward to the ground.

That's right.

This was the witch and Arthur's destiny from the beginning.

Their interactions should never be hugs, but rather a life-or-death struggle.

"?"

The fairy princess, who had closed her eyes, suddenly sensed something.

She opened her eyes in confusion and found the red-haired boy bending down to pick her up, his eyes fixed on the wound pierced by the golden sword.

Shirou reached out and placed his hand between Fairy Queen's breasts.

"You have to do it...it hurts!"

The fairy princess was originally immersed in a sad and intoxicating mood, but her beautiful face was distorted by pain.

"What are you doing? Don't touch my wound!"

Shirou replied with a serious expression, "I was just thinking, 'It actually caused some damage.'"

"...!!"

Fairy Queen immediately understood Shirou's intention in suddenly drawing his sword and stabbing her.

It wasn't a venting of anger, nor was it impotent rage; he was actually testing something—

Fairy Queen did not appear in front of Shirou in a physical form.

The fairy queen appearing here now is an illusion reflected from her true form.

Similarly, Shirou, who appears here, is also an illusion projected by the Holy Grail.

—The phantom of Shirou, who does not belong to this era, has harmed the phantom of Fairy Queen.

What does this really mean?

Why did the red-haired boy, who was supposed to be a phantom, harm Morgan, who was actually a phantom?

After much thought, Shirou felt there was only one explanation.

"At this point, there's no way to deny it."

The red-haired boy said with a serious expression.

What you just said was true; you weren't lying to me—

We are indeed bound together by unseen cause and effect.

Fairy Concubine: "..."

They actually used my body to test its authenticity!?

Shirou continued his analysis: "So, was that 'Arthur' just now me in the past?"

You and Ms. Avalon... Morgan and Merlin, are people I've known before.

I once called myself Arthur in this world and drew the chosen sword, but for some reason I lost that memory... Is that right?

Oh, and there's more.

You just said that even if I leave "this side of Britain," you will still stay by my side in some other way. What do you mean by that?

Shirou narrowed his eyes and asked the question that concerned him most: "What is your relationship with Morgan, whom I know?"

"..."

The Fairy Princess turned her body away without saying a word.

Shirou teased, "Why are you suddenly silent at a time like this?"

Weren't you just being quite talkative, my "older sister"?

"……screw you."

The Fairy Princess's face fell, clearly displeased.

Shirou curiously observed her sulking profile.

Although it was Shirou's first time meeting her, he felt he already knew Fairy Queen's stubborn and strong-willed personality inside and out.

Judging from her expression, no matter how Shirou tries to talk to her, she will definitely ignore him and there is no way to get any more information from him.

Shirou sighed helplessly and adjusted his grip on the fairy princess.

He gazed at the distant sunset scenery while quietly waiting for the dream to end.

"No matter which side of Britain it is, the sunset is just as beautiful," Shirou thought.

……

……

The next morning, Shiro went to Ms. Avalon to protest.

"Hey! Don't give me weird dreams!"

"Huh? What? I didn't make Master dream yesterday?"

Ms. Avalon tilted her head adorably.

Judging from her flippant manner, even if Shirou revealed his dream from last night, she would probably continue to play dumb.

Rather than confessing to her that I already know the truth, it's better to keep it a secret...

"It'll be interesting to see what this woman will do next," Shirou thought to himself.

but……

Ms. Avalon was actually my teacher?

I feel like I don't know how to face her in the future.

At 7 a.m., Shirou decided to use Saber to soothe his eyes in order to relieve the mental fatigue accumulated from the previous night.

Then, he found his target in a restaurant in Einzbern.

Although it was still early morning, the long table was already piled high with a wide variety of dishes, which were breakfast prepared by the android maids.

Shirou sat down next to Saber, while Irisviel sat opposite them.

"Does Saber need to eat too?"

Shirou noticed a large bowl of white rice in front of Saber.

Servants should not need to eat; they can maintain their existence as long as their Master provides them with magical energy.

And Saber's Master possesses a Lesser Grail with an almost inexhaustible supply of mana, therefore—

Shirou thought to himself, "Is eating rice Saber's hobby?"

Irisviel noticed Shirou's confusion and explained it to him.

"Saber also tasted rice for the first time after coming to Japan."

But she seems to have instantly fallen in love with it, haha, now she can't live without white rice for any of her three meals a day.

"Irisviel, don't talk to Shirou about such trivial matters." Saber frowned slightly, displeased.

Then, with elegant and graceful movements and with swift and decisive action, the blonde girl continuously ate the food on the table.

Saber's meal was indeed pleasing to the eye, and Shirou felt his tainted soul being cleansed.

Just as he was reflecting, Irisviel reminded him:

"Don't just look at Saber, you need to eat properly too, okay?"

Shirou is at the age where he's growing, so he must eat a good breakfast.

"understood."

Shirou picked up his rice bowl and took two perfunctory bites.

"…………tasty."

Upon tasting the food, Shirou found today's breakfast to be exceptionally delicious.

I initially thought this dish, made by androids that mechanically follow orders, would be incredibly boring, but it turned out to be surprisingly delicious.

"Does Shirou also think it's delicious?"

"Yes," the red-haired boy nodded obediently.

Although it's not quite as good as what I've had, it should be considered very delicious by the average person's standards.

"Hehehe, that's great!"

Hearing Shirou's honest praise, Irisviel blushed and smiled happily.

"Did Irisviel prepare breakfast today?"

Shirou was shocked because he couldn't imagine Irisviel, a natural-born princess and noblewoman, cooking.

The silver-haired android blinked: "I didn't make breakfast?"

"Then what are you so happy about?" Shirou was speechless.

Irisviel whispered a few words to the maid waiting at the table, and two minutes later, a new android appeared in the dining room.

"Young Miss, are you calling me?"

The new android spoke in a flat, inorganic voice.

"You've come at the perfect time, Liselle, let me introduce you to everyone."

Irisviel put her arm around the android maid and introduced her, "This child made breakfast today, didn't she? How was it? Pretty good, right?"

The princess of Einzbern spoke with the pride of someone talking about her own affairs, while the maid beside her remained expressionless throughout. Asashirou and Saber bowed.

As expected, most androids don't have much emotional fluctuation; it's only the exceptions who are as emotionally rich as Irisviel, Shirou and Saber thought at the same time.

Speaking of which, this android named Lyselite...

Shirou discovers a startling truth through the "Mystic Eyes of the End".

Liselle and Irisviel have very similar origins.

　In other words, she was probably designed and created by the Einzbern family with the aim of creating the Lesser Grail.

Liselle is probably an older model of Irisviel.

Shirou speculates that she probably failed to become a Lesser Grail individual and ended up working as Irisviel's handmaiden.

That's really impressive...

Shirou's gaze moved down from Lyselite's poker face to her most prominent feature.

...Her breasts are so big!

Even within the same batch of artificial life forms, there will be individual differences in personality, not to mention in terms of physical appearance.

There are more than a dozen android girls in Einzbern, but none of them are as big as Liselit.

Irisviel's breasts were already the envy of all women, but she was clearly two sizes larger.

The conservative and abstinent maid outfit could not hide her proud curves; the fabric wrapped around her chest, supporting two large, round, and tempting fruits.

"Shirou...do you really like breasts?"

Irisviel cast a cold glance at her.

"Cough, cough, cough...!!"

Shirou nearly choked to death, coughing for a while before he recovered: "What are you saying all of a sudden?"
