"Rin, it seems the process of collecting the class cards isn't going very smoothly this time."
Akatsuki and Saber stood not far from Tohsaka Rin's group.
"You jerk, since you're here, come over and help!"
"Collecting the class cards is your job, isn't it? If I interfere unnecessarily, won't the Jewel Owner come running to lecture me? It might even turn into a direct confrontation with him."
Akatsuki had originally intended to use this to make Tohsaka Rin back off so she wouldn't interrupt her dates with the young ladies, but as she was speaking eloquently, she suddenly froze as if realizing something.
"Maybe that wouldn't be so bad. After all, he's the guy who took down Crimson Moon. To be honest, I also want to see just how far the Second Magic can go."
"You, what are you plotting now..." Tohsaka Rin looked at Akatsuki helplessly, while her mind was on how to collect the Caster class card.
"If only I could fly..."
"Didn't you say every night before that you were about to fly?"
Hearing this, Tohsaka Rin's face immediately turned red, and she glared fiercely at Akatsuki. "What are you saying in front of elementary schoolers! You pervert!"
"Eh?"
Illya, already floating in mid-air, looked at Tohsaka Rin in confusion. "Miss Rin, can you fly too?"
"Yes, in an 'H' sense."
Akatsuki nodded, while Tohsaka Rin, Luvia, and Miyu looked at Illya in shock.
"You—why can you fly?!"
"Eh? Even if you say that... aren't Magical Girls supposed to fly?"
"My, my, what an innocent thing to say!"
"I won't lose! Miyu! Since Illya can fly without any training, you get up there and fly right now!"
Facing Luvia's serious expression, Miyu gritted her teeth and looked at everyone awkwardly.
"Humans... can't fly!"
"A child without dreams." Akatsuki shrugged. It seemed the advice she once gave to the great hero Emiya hadn't been taken. No, perhaps it was because of Miyu herself.
"It's exactly because you think that way that you can't fly. Special training begins now!"
With that, Luvia grabbed Miyu by the clothes and dragged her away. Akatsuki waved at her, saying, "I'll visit you when I have time," while shifting her gaze to Illya, who was floating in the air.
"Hmm... Has the seal already started to loosen a bit?"
"Hmm? What did you say?"
"Nothing, I just suddenly remembered my promise to Irisviel. By the way, Rin, do you want to enjoy tonight with Saber and me~?"
Holding Saber by the waist, Akatsuki looked Tohsaka Rin up and down. Her red top, black skirt, and pure white over-knee socks—unlike the Tohsaka Rin from the past timeline, the current Rin was undoubtedly pure. It was precisely this purity that gave Akatsuki an urge to dye her in her own colors once again.
The Tohsaka Rin from that timeline and the one before her were undoubtedly the same person. After all, she hadn't crossed world barriers to go to another parallel world; she had simply traveled back along the original timeline and changed some minor details.
"Kya! Could this be the legendary threeso—Ohoho, I used to think Rin was destined to be an expired magical hag. Wait! Rin, I object to violence!!! I'm going to break!!!"
"Who are you calling a magical hag! You stupid wand!"
"Threesome?"
Hearing ruby's words, Illya tilted her head and looked at Tohsaka Rin's group shyly. "I didn't expect Miss Rin to be so open. Is this the world of adults?!"
After venting her anger on ruby, Tohsaka Rin looked at Akatsuki, who was being all lovey-dovey with Saber, and couldn't help but ask, "Shouldn't you be on a date with the Princess tonight? Is it really okay to leave the Princess alone and go out at night with Saber? If the Princess finds out, she'll definitely be furious."
At the mention of Arcueid's name, Akatsuki looked at the moon in the sky and said in a regretful tone, "I didn't want to either, but lately Crimson Moon's consciousness has been a bit unstable. That girl Arcueid wants to settle things with her using her own strength, so she fell into a deep sleep a few hours ago."
"If it weren't for that, she'd probably snap if I were flirtatious with other girls during our scheduled date time. Although she's easy to fool, I don't want to lie to her. Besides, I'm not some sadistic glasses-wearing guy. Even if Arcueid goes on a rampage, I'm absolutely certain I can minimize casualties so the church people won't have a headache. Speaking of the church... by the way, have you been in contact with that Kirei guy lately?"
At the mention of Kirei Kotomine's name, Tohsaka Rin's expression darkened. There were a few things she hated most in her life, and Kirei Kotomine was one of them.
"Who knows? Maybe he's in some city opening a shop that sells mapo tofu ramen with hardly any ramen in it."
"Is that so."
Akatsuki nodded, thinking of Kirei Kotomine dressed as a ramen shop owner. "By the way, Illya, it's almost midnight. If you don't go home and sleep, will you really have the energy for school tomorrow?"
"Eh? Is it that time already?! Miss Rin, I'm leaving! It'll be bad if Sella and Lady Justeaze find out I'm not in my room!"
"Yeah, I'll contact you tomorrow. By the way, tomorrow is the weekend, right?"
"Yes, a weekend where we can be all over each other all day long."
"I'm not going to be all over you! Hmph!"
Tohsaka Rin shouted as if to reaffirm her decision, then left without looking back.
"A pity, it's just us in the end."
"Akatsuki, I've been feeling something strange for a while now. Is this another form of the Holy Grail War? And I felt a familiar aura in that space..."
"You could say that, though the level of this class card Holy Grail War is somewhat different from the original one. Still, this is already the limit for that person from the Ainsworth family."
"By the way, are you free tomorrow night? It might be nice to have a bit of traditional TYPE-MOON plot."
Saber: "?"
Elsewhere, in an unknown city.
"Still no customers on your side today, Uncle."
Facing the mockery of Ciel, a fellow agent of the church, Kirei Kotomine put down the book in his hand, looked at the curry shop next door, and a hint of a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Instead of mocking me, you'd better work hard to keep your own shop alive. After all, mapo tofu is much tastier than your curry; it can survive even without customers."
Ciel twitched her lips and decided not to argue with the middle-aged man.
"Uncle! I'm here to challenge your dojo again today!!"
"Miyako Arima..." Kirei Kotomine's brow couldn't help but furrow at the sight of this elementary schooler of unknown origin. His ramen shop originally had some customers, after all, his sign said it was a ramen shop, while the shop opened by the foreigner next door had done everything wrong from the start, so it was only natural it had no customers. But since the day he opened, this little girl had been coming over to ask for instruction in the Eight Extremes Fist. "I've said it many times, this is a ramen shop."
"But the sign says Eight Extremes..."
"Meow!!! I finally found you! Miyako Arima!"
"Ah! It's the stupid cat!"
