"...If someone hates you that much, there must be some special meaning behind it." He walked blankly towards his room, still not understanding why Tohsaka was so angry.
Fortunately, he was tough enough; an ordinary person would have been beaten to death by Rin Tohsaka.

Fantasy carnival world.
"Oh dear, poor senpai. I'm so sorry, senpai, for treating another version of you so roughly." Seeing this, Matou Sakura felt jealous. Wasn't this flirting?
She looked at Rin Tohsaka with a cunning expression, while pressing her body close to Shirou Emiya and hugging his arm.
"Rude, rude??? Sakura, is this how you talk to your older sister?! Waaah, that's entirely Shirou's fault, isn't it?? I'm already being merciful by not killing Shirou!!" Rin Tohsaka grinned at Sakura Matou.
“That’s right, it’s all Shirou’s fault. Men who don’t know how to be considerate of girls will be struck by lightning,” Fujimura Taiga agreed from the side.
"Ah, but I really didn't expect that Sakura and Tohsaka had feelings for Shirou when they were so young? Did they develop some kind of longing watching that idiot Shirou keep failing and keep challenging himself?"
Fujimura Taiga watched with a grin as Tohsaka Rin and Matou Sakura became embarrassed.
"No, I don't have any aspirations at all!! How could I possibly aspire to be like that idiot Shirou? You definitely can't skip over that with the wrong method." Rin Tohsaka crossed her arms and huffed with her head held high.
"Hmm... I really liked my senior back then. Boys who are determined to see things through to the end are really cool." Matou Sakura covered her cheeks with her hands and said frankly.
"Eh—! Sakura...? Is that what you think?" The tsundere Rin Tohsaka felt like she'd been betrayed by Sakura.
"Oh dear, what a lewd pig! Just asking you to take off your shirt makes you think of so many strange things. It seems Shirou has already been influenced by Shinji Matou, hasn't he?"
Karen Altasia sat to the side, holding a teacup in her hand, and raised her slender, bare foot. "Want me to step on you, Shirou-kun? You really want to touch a delicate, holy beauty like me, don't you?"
"I don't want to! I don't want to at all! Kallen, please let me go. That's me from another world, don't let Saber have any strange misunderstandings!"
Emiya Shirou swallowed hard, looking at Kallen, whose face showed a pitiful expression while she spewed out venomous words.
He was indeed a little overwhelmed by Karen's teasing.
This isn't my fault, is it?! How could I possibly blame myself?! A beautiful girl with long, snow-white hair, a sickly appearance, and a sharp tongue—no one could resist her.
"Hey!! Kallen, don't ignore us! When did you start getting so close to Shirou?" Rin Tohsaka, who was arguing with Sakura Matou, turned around and glared at Kallen Altasia, the daughter of the fake master.
“That’s right, that’s right, Sister is right. Miss Karen is a priest, right? But your behavior is nothing like that of a priest. Please don’t tempt your senior, okay?” Matou Sakura said.
"Clerics can fall in love and get married too. And as a cleric, it's only natural that I want to be with my comrades in justice, right?"
Shirou, by being with me, you can fulfill your dreams, exorcise evil spirits, eliminate the Dead Apostles and evil magicians, and save many more people.
Can you give Shirou what he wants? Right now, whether it's wealth, power, or the woman's charm, I have the upper hand, right?
"My money can solve all of Shirou's troubles." Kallen Altasia flicked a strand of white hair from her ear and looked disdainfully at the love-struck grunt Rin Tohsaka, the scheming and weakling Sakura Matou, and even the Tohsaka sisters were no match for her.
She is a woman favored by the god of love, and her level is the strongest in Fuyuki City.
Medusa and Artoria watched Shirou Emiya from the side; his childhood photo album showed Shirou, who was stubborn from a young age and determined to see things through to the end.
This is something that other boys of the same age would find difficult to do.
During childhood, it is difficult for most people to persevere in doing something they feel incapable of doing through hard work.
Because doing so makes no sense to a teenager.
There are many ways to find happiness; you don't have to stick to one particular path.
The fact that a uniquely beautiful girl fell for a uniquely straightforward boy suggests a certain fate, but perhaps it's more due to the fact that Shirou Emiya's temperament, cultivated from a young age, is different from his peers.
Who can maintain a consistent exercise routine from a young age, doing push-ups during the day and sit-ups at night?
Why do you go out to work after school every day?
This is the ultimate manifestation of self-discipline. A self-disciplined person has a strong charm that can make undisciplined people exclaim, "This guy is really amazing, he can actually keep going like this."
Fate/stay night, Unlimited Blade Works, timeline.
The Emiya family.
The faucet in the bathroom was spraying cool water, and Shirou Emiya bent down, cupping his hands and slapping the water against his burning cheeks.
His breathing was rapid, and his mind was in a jumble.
The scenes between Rin Tohsaka and the characters, their rapidly developing relationship, their playful banter like that of an old married couple or lovers in the throes of new love... it's all so surreal, it feels unreal.
Rin Tohsaka is an unattainable beauty, the goddess that Shirou Emiya secretly admires. Just a few days ago, his relationship with Rin Tohsaka was just that of ordinary classmates.
Right now, Tohsaka is at home, in another room.
Strange images flashed through his mind. "Oh no, this is terrible. How am I going to face Tohsaka at dinner later... and Taiga, Sakura, Saber... Just thinking about it gives me a headache."
Emiya Shirou looked at his clumsy reflection in the mirror, clutching his soaked clothes to his chest with his right hand. "Why would Tohsaka show up there every day to watch me pole vault...? Back then, my physical fitness wasn't good enough, and my technique wasn't right either, so I never managed to complete the challenge."
There's been nothing particularly noteworthy, no successes whatsoever...it's strange...why is that?
"Waaaaah! I've been seen! I've been seen!! You beast, Shirou, you beast!! I was so wrong about you, invading my heart while I was using the Transfer Magic Crest!!"
Rin Tohsaka curled up in the soft double quilt, calling out unwillingly, then shyly buried her head in the pillow.
She's suffered a huge loss; she's completely devastated by it!
"No, no, I'll make Shirou owe an insurmountable, enormous debt. I'll make Shirou my slave. You've spied on the secrets of this young girl's heart; Shirou must pay the price."
Archer sat to the side, two fingers inserted into his ears to block out the sound, helplessly watching Rin Tohsaka toss and turn in bed, making the bed creak.
Looking at the clumsy and slow-witted Shirou Emiya in his youth, Archer remarked that the only redeeming quality of Shirou Emiya was that he hadn't been killed by the devilishly muscular Rin.
Shakugan no Shana, Season 2 timeline.
Shana and Yuuji sat on the sofa, their eyes glued to the scene unfolding on the screen, watching the two heads gradually close in...
Yuuji turned his head to the side and secretly looked at Shana's cheek with his left eye.
——!
He noticed that Shana was also secretly watching him. Yuuji swallowed hard, feeling a tickle in his throat. Shana and I have been through a lot of hardships together.
Does that mean I also have a chance to take my relationship with Shana a step further?
Images of TV dramas they used to watch together flashed through his mind, showing couples embracing and kissing.
"I will absolutely not do it with you!" Shana raised her right foot and stepped on Yuuji's instep.
She couldn't understand why Shirou Emiya and Rin Tohsaka's relationship could develop so quickly...!
She and Yuuji spent several months together, and all they did was hold hands.
....................
....................
"Spit out your curses freely, Holy Grail! Let's see if humanity of this era can bear the wishes they make. The judgment time begins."
Gilgamesh gazed with pleasure at the void in the sky.
Rin Tohsaka and Shirou Emiya stood on the land of Ryudouji Temple, looking at the enormous, bright red mountain of flesh before them. It was a bizarre creature made up of lumps and masses. As expected of Shinji Matou and the Black Grail, their compatibility was flawless.
Only Shinji Matou could conjure up such an ugly Holy Grail.
It is truly the most perfect material to combine with the Black Mud Holy Grail.
Rin Tohsaka and Artoria are in charge of defeating the Holy Grail that is spraying black mud. They have no intention of rescuing Shinji Matou, because this human who has fallen into evil is no longer human.
When Shinji Matou activated the Blood Barrier within the school, he was no longer human, but rather an enemy of humanity.
They are the mortal enemies of those who uphold justice.
If Shirou Emiya were to punch Shinji Matou in the face, Shinji Matou would get a True Damage and Special Attack buff above his head.
A brainless, foolish, and mentally challenged saint cannot be a partner of justice or Rin Tohsaka.
Rin Tohsaka, Shirou Emiya, and Gilgamesh bump into each other face to face.
As a Heroic Spirit, Artoria Pendragon can only enter Ryudouji Temple through the main gate to reunite with Rin Tohsaka.
She has an agreement that she must keep.
She felt a debt of gratitude she had to repay, and she looked up at Sasaki Kojiro, the respectable warrior, who was waiting for her at the top of the steps.
At this moment, she was no longer a follower, but King Arthur accepting the swordsman's challenge.
"I've been waiting for you for so long. I've finally made it, Saber." Sasaki Kojiro and Artoria looked at each other, their hearts pounding with excitement.
He has persevered until now for this moment; if Saber had appeared any later, he might have already disappeared.
Gilgamesh completely ignored Sasaki Kojiro; he was not a Heroic Spirit under the rules of the Holy Grail War, so he could ignore the barrier.
The longsword clashed and clashed repeatedly with the invisible sword.
In a split second, Sasaki Kojiro and Artoria became two afterimages entangled together, sparks flying, blurring the afterimages, breaking the floor tiles, and trees flying around them as Artoria released her magic.
Although Sasaki Kojiro is about to disappear and his magical power is insufficient, he is not a heroic spirit who fights by relying on magical power.
A long sword, an arm, and a body are all you need.
There is no external magical energy, no dazzling Noble Phantasms, only swordsmanship that has reached the realm of zero.
Human beings are all powerful.
The foolish Gilgamesh believed that humanity was worthless, too much waste, and had no value in living—a truly laughable notion.
After all, they are just frogs in a well, useless people with a limited perspective.
Modern humans do not have an easy time surviving in modern society. They have to work hard to overcome various burdens, fight against poverty and disease, and overcome one setback after another in life.
Even if modern humans cannot fight against monsters and cannot have the same physical abilities as humans in the age of gods, modern humans are still stronger than humans in the age of gods!
An ancient king who was born entirely by bloodline is a useless piece of trash and has no right to judge humanity.
He just had "good parents" who were a tiny bit more powerful than ordinary humans. Without Lugal Bandar kneeling before Attila begging for mercy, and without the bloodline power of the goddess Rimatin, Gilgamesh would have been a dead dog long ago.
No modern person would respect Gilgamesh, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
Boom! A deafening explosion echoed from the location where Rin Tohsaka was standing in the distance.
Just then, Sasaki Kojiro swung his sword and closed in on Artoria, wielding the sword with both hands in a horizontal slash. With a loud thud, the two entered a stalemate.
Sasaki Kojiro sensed through the sword that Saber's power had increased significantly.
The Saber he is fighting now is completely different from the Saber he first met; her strength has increased several times over.
He was overjoyed to see the swordsman in front of him become stronger, and his heart was filled with boundless joy.
To others, Sasaki Kojiro's joy was rather bizarre; he actually hoped that the enemy would become stronger. Wasn't that just masochistic?
But what he longed for was to fight powerful swordsmen.
He wished that Saber's power was now as great as the swallow he had cut down in his previous life.
"Assassin, you..." Artoria looked at Sasaki Kojiro, who had a happy smile on his face. This man was starting to fight desperately.
She knew that as soon as she left Sasaki Kojiro's vicinity, that three-stage slash with overlapping dimensions would be aimed at her.
“Reduce your power, is that alright? If so, let me push you away,” said Sasaki Kojiro.
Artoria had some concerns. Currently, Rin Tohsaka's magical power is partly provided to Shirou, partly to herself, and partly for Rin's own use.
She dares not waste her magical power now, even though her abilities are worth improving.
However, she still cannot use her magic power freely and must be careful with her energy consumption... She fears that Rin Tohsaka might perish due to magic depletion.
"In the heat of the duel, please don't think about what will happen next." Sasaki Kojiro seemed to have guessed what Saber was worried about, so he hesitated to use his full strength.
If the distance between them continues to widen, it will play right into Assassin's hands. Artoria gritted her teeth. Right now, she only wanted to fight with her swordsmanship. She couldn't use her magic power, Wind King's Hammer, or Wind King's Barrier.
Energy-saving mode.
However, without using magic, she knew that relying solely on her swordsmanship and strength advantage, she would find it difficult to end the battle in a short time.
But she had to end her battle with Sasaki Kojiro as soon as possible, as Rin Tohsaka was waiting for her to come and help.
The Holy Grail, spewing black mud, needs its own holy sword to destroy it.
“What are you confused about? Just as I guard this gate, you also have something to protect. So we have no time to be confused now.” Sasaki Kojiro looked at his hands, which had become ethereal. “Besides, Saber, you’re not the only one who has no time.”
Artoria looked down and saw Assassin's hands, which had become somewhat transparent; his condition was much more serious than Archer's.
Yes, I don't have time to waste here anymore.
"My apologies for my rudeness earlier. Indeed, both of us are running out of time." Sorry, Rin! Artoria channeled her magical power, and the Wind King's Barrier transformed into a whirlwind, gathering on the sword as it hurtled towards Sasaki.
It poured out from the direction of Kojiro.
