Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

Emiya Shirou wished he could rush into the video and slap his past self twice, to see what he was saying without thinking.

Red A: "(~_~;)"

I just realized how silly I was when I was young.

Fuyuki no Tora: "If I didn't know what kind of person you are, I'm afraid..."

Ilya: "That's not necessarily true. You can know a person's face but not their heart (???)!"

Stay-at-home husband: "...That's enough, stop it, Ilya..."

"Teacher Dahe? Teacher Dahe? Sister Dahe!"

[Sakura Matou couldn't think of a good way to stop Shirou Emiya from living with the King, so she could only place her hopes on Taiga Fujimura.]

"Oh..."

[Fujimura Taiga's brain had completely shut down at this point, and he only came back to his senses after Matou Sakura called him several times.]

[Matou Sakura: "Does Taiga-sensei also agree to Saber living in senpai's house?"]

[Sakura Matou has made her move; she's used the student's ultimate weapon: "telling on the parents."]

Sakura Matou believes that Taiga Fujimura will not allow the King to live with Shirou Emiya.

[When she first came to Shirou Emiya's house, Taiga Fujimura tried everything to stop her. How could Taiga, who is such a doting brother, possibly agree to her brother living with someone else?]

"Um...I...um...As a teacher (and a brother-obsessed parent), of course I can't agree to this!"

"But since she's a child who came to rely on Kiritsugu, I can't mistreat her..."

[Fujimura Taiga was extremely conflicted at this moment. After all, Shirou Emiya said that the person was Kiritsugu Emiya's friend. If he agreed, he and Sakura Matou would be upset. If he disagreed, he would feel that he was letting down the deceased Kiritsugu.]

[In less than three seconds, her brain almost shut down again.]

So Fujimura Taiga chose the simplest and most brutal method—to just give up and ignore it.

"Oh well! Isn't this great? Just think of it as a stay with a host family!"

"Holding his little motorcycle up, Fujimura Taiga said this."

[I'm sorry, Sakura! I know how you feel about Shirou, but if I keep thinking like this, I'll die before I've even eaten!]

"Huh?"

Matou Sakura was stunned, watching Fujimura Taiga's retreating figure with disappointed eyes; her jealousy flared up for the second time.

[When she came, Taiga-nee spent a long time drawing before she agreed, so why did things change when it came to Our King?]

Sakura Matou turned around and looked Artoria up and down.

Beautiful, elegant, demure, and exuding an aristocratic air.

Compared to her, my only advantage seems to be my breasts.

Watching the retreating figure of the 'traitor' Fujimura Taiga, Matou Sakura secretly resolved that she would protect Emiya Shirou's purity.

Ilya: "Taiga-nee, you give up way too easily!"

Tora of Fuyuki: "Who told Shirou to lie to me and say she was Kiritsugu's friend? I only did it because of Kiritsugu..."

Mrs.: "Hehe, but this isn't exactly lying to you."

Ilya: "If you don't want to use your brain, you just don't want to use your brain. Don't make excuses for yourself."

Fuyuki no Tora: "╥﹏╥"

That evening, Shirou Emiya prepared a lavish feast.

Perhaps it was to ease the tension, or perhaps it was to atone for the sin of lying.

Unfortunately, the war between women cannot be resolved with just one meal.

Although the three girls kept their hands busy, Shirou Emiya could always sense a terrifying killing intent gathering on the table.

The meal ended in this strange atmosphere.

[Having eaten and drunk his fill, Fujimura Taiga felt his mind sharpen again and quickly came up with a way to reassure Matou Sakura while also keeping the King at bay.]

That means, why don't they just move in with us?

[She can go and say hello to the Matou family.]

Upon hearing Fujimura Taiga's plan, Matou Sakura's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed, "Taiga-sensei is so reliable!"

And so, Shirou Emiya was plunged into a life of constant fear, constantly threatened by a hatchet.

Ilya: "...Taiga-nee, you're really smart!"

Fuyuki no Tora: "What's wrong? Is this method not good?"

Ilya: "No, this is wonderful."

Rin Tohsaka: "It feels like this guy has been waiting for this day for a long time."

Zabiko: "That's right, it feels like I've finally found a reason."

Blonde Rin: "This has been planned for a long time."

Fuyuki no Tora: "..."

Meanwhile, Rin Tohsaka, after a day of searching, finally found traces of the other Servants.

Inside a building, swarms of skeletal monsters and dragon-tooth soldiers charged at her, but were easily defeated by magic bullets unleashed by Rin Tohsaka.

This was an office building. When Rin Tohsaka arrived, it was shrouded in a dark purple mist and filled with a strange fragrance.

Dozens of people collapsed on desks, or lay unconscious on the floor or tables.

"What is this fragrance?"

Rin Tohsaka watched this scene with disgust; what a despicable tactic.

[These methods, and those puppets, definitely belong to Caster.]

[The barrier in the school was probably Caster's doing, since who else besides Caster has the ability to create such a barrier?]

C's Mom: "..."

She admitted that the monsters and the magical mist were her doing, but the school shouldn't be blamed on her.

However, the fact that she's hunting down the magical power of ordinary people suggests that her Master is not up to the task.

[Red A: "It's a witch's ointment, isn't it? Made from celery, the kind used to ruin relationships between couples. So, our opponent is a woman, right?"]

["Even after becoming a Servant, he still can't shake his habit of taking revenge on society..."]

They then quickly turned on the exhaust fan to remove the potion mist from the room, and then called for emergency medical assistance, sending everyone present to the hospital.

Next, they will face Caster head-on.

[Because the vital energy stolen from the people here transformed into demonic power and flowed towards Ryudong Temple, Ryudong Temple is likely Caster's lair.]

However, we definitely can't just foolishly charge straight in; after all, the opponent is a Caster. We must be fully prepared.

Besides, she's been running around all day and is exhausted; she needs to rest.

Zabi: "A plaster that ruins relationships? There's such a thing!"

Ilya: "Caster-neechan, do you have any more of this?"

Househusband: "Ilya! What do you need this for?"

Ilya: "I just thought it was interesting and wanted to see it for myself."

Househusband: "Don't touch such a dangerous thing!"

Ilya: "☆(○)o"

C's Mom: "Hehe, you can message me privately if you're interested."

Rin Tohsaka: "Hey, don't sell such dangerous things in the group!"

[The next day.]

[Shirou Emiya went to school as usual, but since nothing happened yesterday, he didn't let the King accompany him today.]

Through gossip among the students, he learned that his friend Ayako Mitsumi had been found unconscious somewhere in Shinjuku the day before, suffering from severe anemia, just like those who had been taken to the hospital before.

Upon hearing this news, Shirou Emiya was furious, and his first suspect was Shinji Matou.

After all, who else besides Shinji Matou would have a grudge against Ayako Mitsuzuri?

He then found Matou Sakura and asked her about it, only to learn that Matou Shinji had been missing for several days.

Stay-at-home husband: "Shinji actually made a move on Ayako?!"

Rin Tohsaka: "It's you again! Shinji Matou!"

Harmless to humans and animals: "..."

Tired, let's destroy it—

[Shirou Emiya remained lost in these complex thoughts until school ended.]

[Just as Shirou Emiya was about to leave, he ran into Rin Tohsaka.]

[The other party was furious to see that Shirou Emiya hadn't brought the King.]
