But on second thought, nothing is impossible in front of this man.

After all, didn't he even force his way into a defensive magic that shouldn't have been broken?

"so--"

The Queen of Shadow Kingdom looked at the man in front of her with a little more expectation in her eyes.

"Do you want to take me to see them?"

"If you understand it that way... it's not impossible." Ian did not intend to deny Scathach's statement.

"At least--"

"We should put the previous misunderstanding behind us, right?"

"..."

Realizing that the man was really trying to cover up her previous mistakes, Scathach felt a little warmer in her heart.

"ok, I get it."

"Wait for me a moment."

"...Okay." Ian nodded, "I'll wait for you."

A few minutes later.

Looking at Scathach in front of him, Ian was stunned for a moment.

"No."

"Why did you change into this kind of clothes?"

Just as Ian was surprised, Scathach had now taken off her usual loose clothes which she had bought specifically for the convenience of spear dancing.

Instead, she wore a set of casual clothes that were more body-slimming and better showed off her graceful figure.

"what happened?"

Scathach looked at the clothes she was wearing and became a little worried.

"Does it look ugly when I wear this?"

"No, no, no." Ian immediately denied this statement, "How can this be ugly?"

"It's just that I've never seen you dressed like this before."

"Nonsense." Scathach poked Ian's nose.

"You saw this suit in the closet before - but you only remember me without it, right?"

"If you beg me--"

"Maybe I can show you now."

After knowing that she and Ian were just friends, Scathach actually relaxed a lot.

There was also a hint of amusement towards him in his words.

But Ian was not shy about Scathach's teasing.

"Alright."

"If there is a chance next time, please let me admire that look again."

"You do have a nice figure after all."

This time, Scathach failed to attack and was instead counterattacked by Ian.

The Queen of Shadow Kingdom blushed suddenly.

She turned her face away:

"You... aren't you embarrassed by what I said?"

"How could it not be?" Ian smiled.

"only--"

"There must be something more important to do first, right?"

"..."

Scathach felt her heart being touched.

She suddenly realized how she had felt about this man in the first place.

That's right.

It is this kind of attitude that after recognizing a truth, you dive headfirst into that direction and work hard until you succeed.

In a sense, this is very similar to my original intention.

"I see." Scathach took Ian's arm.

"Then let's go."

"..."

The man thought for a moment, and finally acquiesced to Scathach's behavior.

"Then let's go back to the Gun Dao Club first."

"it is good."

[You and Scathach returned to the Gun Club.]

[It's not time to finish school yet, and there are still many students in the Gun Dao Club. ]

[And because of Atalanta, there are quite a few people from the Kyudo Club among them—they are all fans of the cat girl’s superb archery skills.]

"..."

Seeing Ian and Scathach appear together, Atalanta immediately spoke to the students around her.

"Practice on yourselves first!"

"I'm going to go find Teacher Ian!"

This hurried look made the students more enthusiastic about the discussion.

After all, Ian and Misaya already have a pretty close relationship, and now there’s a teacher who cares deeply about him.

How could there not be gossip?

"Hey, hey! Did you see that today? Teacher Ian ran around holding Teacher Misaya for a long time!"

"Of course I saw it! Is this a resurgence after the breakup?"

"It's hard to say... but looking at the way they are holding hands, their relationship must be better now!"

Atalanta ignored the rumors from her students.

She just wanted to find out what was going on between Ian and the Master named Misaya.

"Master... Teacher Ian."

The little cat girl looked at her owner, then looked at Misayo who had changed into casual clothes and looked much prettier, her expression seeming a little confused and puzzled.

"This is how the same thing……"

Ian glanced at the students who were talking nearby and realized that this was not the right place.

"Let's talk somewhere else."

[The three of you have come to the outside of the dojo - this is now a place where students cannot disturb you.]

【You told Atalanta the truth.】

【This Archer was shocked. 】

"This……"

Atalanta looked at Scathach, her cat's tail standing up.

"Are you saying that Caster not only killed Assassin, but also Lancer?"

"Yes." Scathach nodded.

"I don't want to admit this defeat, but it is true."

"I'm afraid that Caster and his Master are more powerful than any of us could imagine."

"..."

Atalanta's cat ears stood up.

She actually didn't have much desire for this Holy Grail War.

It would be best if we could win victory for our Master, Toosaka Rin.

but--

She would actually be fine with it if Ian could win.

But now, suddenly there appears a Caster whose strength is far superior to that of other servants.

Whether it is Lin or Ian, their chances of winning will be greatly reduced.

"What should we do?" The little cat lady couldn't help but ask.

"There's nothing we can do right now," Ian confessed his situation.

"So I have to take Scathach back with me to discuss with Vivian and the others what to do next."

"Atalanta."

"I'll leave the security of Rin and Sakura here to you, as well as the scouting of the surrounding areas—"

"..."

Although she wanted to do more, Atalanta knew that given the current situation, being able to accomplish this was a great achievement.

She nodded and replied:

"I understand."

"Master, you can go without any worries!"

Say goodbye and leave Private Hogunhara Academy.

Scathach and Ian headed towards the Tohsaka Mansion where Vivian was.

On the way, the Queen of Shadow Kingdom couldn't help but ask:

"Ian, why does Archer call you master?"

"…It's complicated to explain." Ian frowned.

"Oh, so that's what you like, right?" Scathach summed it up.

"That--"

"Owner?"

"..."

The man didn't know how to respond for a moment, but Scathach started laughing.

"Hmm? Have I finally found the moment that makes your heart flutter?"

"Scathach, don't joke like that." Ian was a little helpless, "Now is not the right time."

"I know it's not appropriate now." The Queen of Shadow Kingdom took Ian's hand and said softly.

"But I just want you to be less tense. Caster isn't the only enemy you have to face."

"……you're right."

[You and Scathach returned to the Tousaka mansion. ]

【You encountered an unexpected situation. 】

Click, the door opened.

As soon as he entered the room, Ian saw Vivian sitting on the sofa, covering her hands and blowing into them.
