A certain crossover anime's nuclear-powered sword immortal

The magic world today is arguably in extreme decline compared to its golden age.

Most of the magic tricks from the Age of Gods have been lost. The magic tricks we know today are mostly the result of continuous research and development by people in later generations.

Of course, there are some magic tricks that would be considered amazing even in the age of gods, but overall they are actually very few.

Moreover, some of these are grand magic tricks that require a vast amount of magical power and numerous magicians to perform.

That level of magic is simply beyond the reach of an individual.

Kenneth also didn't believe that any human being could perform such powerful magic on their own.

.

As Kenneth was furious that his relic had lost its effect, a red-haired woman emerged from the bathroom.

She had apple-red hair and a beautiful face that seemed devoid of emotion, giving the impression of an ice queen.

Kenneth could get angry at anyone, but he never wanted to hurt his fiancée in any way.

"What happened that made you so angry?"

In response to Sora's question, Kenneth took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, before answering in a calm tone.

"I've made all the preparations, but now I can't summon the Servant I want. I've never felt this humiliation before!"

Sora frowned upon hearing this and asked in a somewhat aggressive tone.

So, are we just going back like this?

Although Kenneth deeply loved his fiancée, Sora seemed to appreciate it at all. After all, their marriage was an arranged one, so Sora didn't actually have any affection for him.

"I……"

Kenneth paused for a moment, then paced back and forth anxiously, unsure of what to do.

Just as he was racking his brains for a solution, there was a knock on the door of the luxury suite.

Boom boom boom!

"It's so late and you're still bothering us? What's wrong with this hotel?" Sora stood up unhappily, walked to the door and opened it.

Then, upon seeing the person outside the door, a high-decibel scream from a woman suddenly rang out.

"ah----!!!"

Upon hearing Sora's scream, Kenneth rushed forward without thinking.

"What happened?!"

When Kenneth ran to the door, he saw the figure standing outside and was stunned.

"You are……"

With eyes almost bulging out of their sockets, the man in the wide robe stood at the doorway, bowing to Kenneth with an aristocratic air, his irregularly twitching lips forming a strange smile.

"Want to make a deal?"

That eerie smile gave off a demonic vibe.

Chapter Fourteen: Projection is just a regular magic trick, right?

Aoi Tohsaka discovered her daughter was missing an hour after Rin ran out of the house.

During that time, Aoi Tohsaka was busy cleaning and cooking, while Rin was usually very well-behaved and never caused her too much trouble.

But today was very unusual. Rin seemed to be in a bad mood ever since she returned home. However, the Tohsaka family's education method is different from that of ordinary families. Rin, who was raised as the future head of the family, has a very high degree of freedom.

So even though she could tell that her daughter was in a bad mood, Aoi didn't bother her.

After seeing her daughter return to her room, Aoi assumed she was doing her homework and didn't disturb her, instead going about her own business.

There were still many chores to do in the large house, and her daughter had just come home from school, so she must be very hungry after a day of studying. Therefore, Kui began to seriously prepare dinner.

However, after the meal was prepared, Aoi went to Rin's room only to find that Rin had disappeared. She panicked and rushed out to look for her.

As night fell, Aoi grew increasingly anxious. Due to the special circumstances of the Holy Grail War, she could neither report the incident to the police nor contact Tokiomi, fearing that her daughter's disappearance would affect him.

As Aoi continued searching in the park, she suddenly spotted a familiar figure on a park bench not far away.

The girl in the red dress was walking with a boy of similar age, and they seemed to be talking about something.

For Rin, this was the first time she had ever met a magician who was about the same age as her. As they gradually became more familiar with each other, they talked a lot more.

"Speaking of which, why do you always use 'projection' magic in battle, Orihara? I remember that's a type of general magic that isn't very popular among magicians, right?"

"Because this is the only thing I know how to do." Shirou shrugged helplessly.

In reality, Shirou's "projection" magic is merely a byproduct of the Reality Marble "Unlimited Blade Works" and cannot be compared to normal "projection" magic.

Rin, upon hearing this, seemed to have misunderstood something.

"Is that so? It seems your talent for magic is rather ordinary."

Rin, worried that she might upset Shirou, quickly spoke again.

"But you don't need to worry too much. You will definitely learn more magic tricks in the future. I think you will definitely become a famous figure in the magic world."

Shirou smiled upon hearing this.

"Then thank you for your blessing, Miss Tohsaka."

Being treated like this by a magician older than herself, Rin was immediately delighted and proudly raised her chin.

Hmph~ No need

"Thank you. And as a way of repaying you for saving me today, I'll protect you when I grow into the strongest magician."

"That's wonderful. From now on, I'll rely on Lady Tohsaka's protection."

Shirou didn't mind cooperating with Rin's performance and did his best to act.

Suddenly, a woman's shout came from inside the park ahead.

"cold!"

Upon hearing the call, Rin immediately looked over, and a look of joy immediately appeared on the girl's face when she saw the person.

"mom!"

Rin looked ashamed and wanted to say something to comfort him, but couldn't find the words.

After a while, Aoi, whose mind was filled with joy, finally calmed down and looked at the boy standing by the street lamp not far behind Rin.

Her red hair swayed gently in the evening breeze, and her delicate face wore a tender smile.

She seems to be a kind child. Aoi thought to herself.

Although we are strangers, no matter what kind of world it is, it seems that appearances still matter in the end.

Because of Shirou's good looks, and the fact that he looks no more than 6 or 7 years old, Aoi was not very wary of him.

Of course, if she knew that the person who rescued the children and Rin, and also killed the murderer and kidnapper Ryunosuke Amatsu, was the one who revealed the child in front of her, I wonder what her expression would be.

Aoi withdrew her gaze and looked at Rin in her arms.

"Mom, it was Orihara who escorted me all the way back."

Rin's eyes darted around, carefully choosing her words, refraining from revealing the things she had seen that would frighten Aoi.

"I see, so that's how it is..."

Hearing Rin's words, Aoi's goodwill towards Shirou increased even more. She was about to express her gratitude to him when she froze when she looked up ahead.

Where is the boy now, bathed in the orange glow of the streetlights?

"Huh, where did everyone go...?"

Rin looked up at Aoi, her small face full of confusion.

Aoi sighed softly, realizing that Shirou had quietly left.

"Never mind, I'll express my gratitude to him if I have another chance to see him."

As she said this, Aoi patted her daughter's head.

“We need to go back quickly. If your father finds out about this, it will distract him.”

"Yes, I understand..." Rin replied, her eyes somewhat dim.

I finally made my first magician friend, and I haven't even had a chance to talk to him much yet.

However, once we get to school, we'll have another chance to talk!

Rin thought with anticipation.

But then she remembered that tomorrow was the weekend, and her face immediately fell.

……

Saturday arrived just like that.

Shirou got up early, glanced at Sakura who was still fast asleep, and then quietly went to the bathroom to wash up.

Although Sakura is currently being fostered here by a distant relative in the eyes of the Orihara couple, there are no spare rooms in the house, so Sakura has to temporarily squeeze in with Shirou.

Shirou also tried sleeping on the floor, but Sakura insisted on holding tightly to Shirou's arm every night when she went to sleep, and he had to stay with her.

For Sakura, Shirou has become her pillar of support.

Now that Sakura is completely alone, Shirou is the only person she can rely on.

Mrs. Orihara had already prepared breakfast by this time.

"Shirou, and Sakura, come have breakfast!"

Upon hearing the call, Shirou washed his face and headed to the room, intending to wake Sakura.

However, Sakura seemed to sense it and let out a soft moan.

"Well……"

The girl, curled up in bed, trembled slightly with her eyelashes, then rubbed her eyes and sat up.

Her expression was somewhat flustered at first, her eyes searching for something in the room, until she saw Shirou's face next to her, at which point she showed a relieved expression.

Good morning...brother.
