If anyone else dared to do that, they would have undoubtedly punched them away without hesitation.

After arriving in the living room, the two sat down in front of the fireplace.

"Black tea is here~ and dessert too~!"

Ayako Mitsuki brought a tray into the living room and placed black tea and dorayaki (a type of Japanese pancake) as dessert on the table.

Then, she sat down in front of the heater, lifted the quilt, and stretched her legs inside.

The heater wasn't very big, so it was actually a bit cramped for three people, and it was easy for them to bump into each other.

The three people in the living room were silent. The three pairs of legs under the heater would touch each other from time to time. Except for Shirou, who said he didn't care, the two girls would immediately pull back as if they were being electrocuted if they touched him even slightly.

Seeing the silence fall, Ayako Mizuki took the initiative to start a conversation.

"Speaking of which, Shirou, you're quite familiar with Tohsaka, aren't you?"

“Yes, we’ve known each other for ten years,” Shirou replied, stirring the red liquid in his teacup with a spoon.

"I knew it! No wonder Tohsaka wasn't interested in any of the guys who were pursuing her and rejected them all. Turns out she's already taken," Ayako Mitsuri exclaimed in realization.

"..." Listening to their conversation, Saber lowered her head and looked at the black tea in her cup, lost in thought.

Seeing the girl's somewhat dazed appearance, Shirou felt a huge sense of danger looming over his head.

Knowing he couldn't linger on this topic, he immediately spoke up.

"Why are you so late coming home today, Mizuki? Wasn't a curfew already in effect?"

Now it was Ayako's turn to feel ashamed.

"Ah... well, I went to a friend's house to hang out... and we had so much fun that by the time I realized it was late..."

Having learned her lesson tonight, Ayako Mizuki will probably never dare to come home late again.

While chatting casually with Ayako Mitsuri about trivial matters, Shirou observed Saber's expression and noticed that she was just silently eating her dorayaki, as if nothing else mattered except for the dessert in front of her.

Shirou continued chatting with Ayako Mizuki when his hand, which was inside the blanket, suddenly touched something.

It was a small, delicate foot; judging from this angle, it must have been Saber's.

The moment Shirou touched her, the girl immediately stopped moving her feet and let him touch her.

Gently stroking the delicate, smooth instep, and then touching the tiny toes, the small, jade-like foot immediately recoiled as if startled.

"It should be Saber's, right?" Shirou thought to himself.

However, when comparing the two girls in terms of height, weight, and even measurements, Ayako Mitsumi is the clear winner.

Of course, being completely superior in weight is probably not a good thing for Ayako Mitsuri.

Ayako was unaware of the incredibly rude things Shirou was thinking. She simply smiled and chatted with him, her fair cheeks flushed slightly under the lamplight, probably because the heater had warmed up a bit.

The harsh winter chill was completely dispelled at this moment.

"Well then, we'll be going now. See you tomorrow!"

Shirou led Saber out of the room and turned back to wave to Ayako Mizuki.

"Okay, see you tomorrow~" Ayako Mitsuki waved back.

The girl's cheeks were flushed, as if they could drip water.

Shirou closed the door behind him and walked back with Saber.

"You're quite patient, Saber," Shirou teased.

"Huh? What?" Saber frowned slightly upon hearing Shirou's words, not understanding what he was talking about.

"Huh?" Seeing Saber's bewildered expression, Shirou suddenly realized something. "Could it be..."

Meanwhile, after Shirou and Saber finally left, Ayako Mitsuki breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if all her strength had been drained, and collapsed onto the tatami mat.

The girl shifted her feet nervously, her cheeks flushed, and she lowered her head, murmuring shyly.

"Can't that guy know when to stop...!"

Chapter Thirty-Nine: Only this once... Oh

A bright red skirt fluttered in the room, and the blonde girl let out a "whoosh" sound as she lay down on Sakura's soft bed.

"Damn it, I was so close to winning!"

Nero angrily swung his fists, leaving small marks on the bedding.

"It's a bit of a shame that it was suddenly interrupted, but even if you continued, are you really sure you would win?"

Sakura asked with some curiosity.

Although she didn't know as much about magic as Rin, she was still exceptionally talented and naturally not much different.

Therefore, Sakura was able to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the battle between Nero and Scáthach at that time.

However, Sakura's words did not convince the willful Roman tyrant, who even rolled around on the bed like a sulking little girl.

"I don't care, I don't care... it's all the guy's fault for interrupting our duel!"

"..."

Sakura watched this scene in silence, her impression of the Roman tyrant Nero gradually crumbling.

However, who was the culprit who caused such a huge commotion on Weiyuanchuan's side back then?

……

"Of course I'll be the one to win in the end!"

In Rin's boudoir, the Queen of the Shadow Kingdom, standing by the window savoring the moonlight, spoke thus.

"What a pity, if only that unexpected event hadn't happened..."

Rin sighed as she hugged her knees in bed.

Being highly competitive, she naturally felt somewhat disappointed with this result.

"But there's nothing we can do about it; it's all the guy's fault for causing this situation."

As she said this, a look of anticipation returned to Rin's eyes.

"Let's have Sakura and Illya come over after school tomorrow!"

"Hey... Master, should we bring the enemy here too?"

Scáthach was somewhat puzzled by Rin's thoughts.

Based on the information she received in this world, Masters are normally in an adversarial relationship.

However, this now seems to be an abnormal situation.

And if that boy is coming tomorrow too...

"It makes me a little bit excited."

……

Having just finished showering, Saber walked into Shirou's room with practiced ease.

Suddenly, she saw a boy lying on the bed with his hands folded behind his head, staring at the ceiling as if he was thinking about something.

"Shirou, aren't you going to sleep yet?" Saber asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I was just thinking about tomorrow, since I have to go to Rin's house."

Despite saying that, Shirou was actually thinking about how to continue spending time with Ayako Mitsuzuri tomorrow.

What happened last night was an accident, but the girl must already think he's a pervert for doing such a thing.

If Shirou hadn't saved the other person just before that, their relationship would probably have taken a sharp turn for the worse long ago.

How to do it……

While Shirou was thinking about these things, Saber had already lay down very close to him.

Shirou now deeply regrets his mistake.

Turning his head to look at the girl lying beside him with her back to him, Shirou could feel her trust in him.

The golden hair scattered on the pillow emitted a refreshing fragrance, a scent that no brand of shampoo could provide.

Shirou reached out and stroked her hair, a simple gesture that was hardly enough to upset the girl.

However, Saber immediately sensed it when his hand reached over the girl's shoulder and embraced her.

Her body tensed slightly, and Shirou could almost feel her anxiety. He could imagine that if he made any more movements, he probably wouldn't be able to fall asleep.

However, the goodwill cultivated in the past still played a role at this time.

The faint buzzing sound came from the girl whose back was to Shirou.

"Only this once... please..."

……

After the first night of the Holy Grail War, the calm second day finally arrived.

The school clock pointed to eight o'clock.

Shirou arrived at school with Sakura just like yesterday.

This is the third day that I've been going to school with Sakura.

Since the Holy Grail War always begins at night, Shirou didn't really care about accompanying Sakura to school.

However, he would undoubtedly have an easier time if the female students hadn't been so enthusiastic.

Good morning, Orihara-kun!

"Orihara-kun, do you prefer red or blue?"
