Alvin did not stay in the insect warehouse, but turned around and left the basement quietly.

The Matou family's mansion was silent, without a sound.

The cold wind whistled past, adding a sense of loneliness to the Japanese-style house at night.

dong dong...

Alvin closed his eyes quietly, and the white dragon's heart beat quietly.

The next moment, the aura in the mansion came into his perception.

Apart from the servants of the Matou family, there are only three people living in the Matou family now.

Matou Kariya went to bed early because he was not feeling well.

In addition, another young man was lying on the bed bored, with his legs crossed and in a daze.

This is Shinji Matou.

Where's Sakura...?

Alvin's mind moved, and he continued to expand his perception.

"Hmm~"

At this moment, he suddenly heard a suppressed and charming voice in his ear.

Alvin was stunned for a moment, and soon followed the direction of the sound and came to the window of a small house.

Through the glass window, one can vaguely see a young girl leaning on the bed. She has her eyes slightly closed, and her face seems to have a faint blush as if she is intoxicated. It is obvious that she is still immersed in her own world.

A girl of this age already possesses the graceful body of a mature woman. Her seductive figure made Alvin's eyes widen.

At this moment, the girl's suppressed voice sounded quietly in his ears.

"senior……"

Alvin: "..."

After a brief moment of daze, a strange look quickly appeared on his face.

I didn't expect to encounter such a thing so late at night... But it's normal. It's not surprising for girls of this age to have some sexual impulses.

The only problem is the girl's name...

It’s better to leave first. It would be so embarrassing if someone caught us... Alvin collected his thoughts slightly and turned to leave.

However, at this moment, he suddenly felt that the room suddenly became quiet.

"senior……?"

This time, the voice he spoke in was not the one full of intoxication or even emotion just now, but was filled with a hint of doubt and incredible shock.

Alvin's body stiffened slightly, then he slowly raised his head.

Sakura Matou had sat up without her knowing when, her beautiful eyes widened, hiding extreme surprise and astonishment.

"Sakura...good evening."

Alvin forced a smile onto his face.

Although he remained calm on the surface, his heart was already in turmoil.

Alvin's first reaction was: Am I hallucinating? How could she possibly know I was there?!

You know, he is Assassin, and he possesses the most advanced "Breath Blocking". How could Sakura Matou discover him?

"You, when were you outside the window?"

Sakura Matou finally came to her senses, subconsciously covered her hot cheeks, and asked in a low voice.

Alvin hesitated: "I just arrived not long ago..."

“Did you hear that…?”

Matou Sakura glanced at Alvin secretly.

Alvin was silent for a moment: "If I say I didn't hear it... would you believe me?"

After these words were spoken, a long silence fell between the two.

After an unknown amount of time, Matou Sakura lowered her head and took a shallow breath.

There seemed to be a hint of darkness on that usually gentle and weak face.

She wrapped the sheet tightly around her shoulders, and finally raised her head to look at the young man, and said softly: "Senior, would you like to come in and sit for a while?"

"You came to the Matou family so late at night. Is there something important going on?"

Originally, Alvin did have a lot of things he wanted to talk to Sakura Matou about, but after what happened just now, he was already hesitant.

"How about next time... It's getting late today, you should go to bed early."

After saying that, he turned around and couldn't wait to leave.

Matou Sakura looked at the boy with gentle eyes: "If you leave like this, I might not be able to explain it, right?"

"After all, if I call my sister now...it might cause unnecessary misunderstandings."

I climbed to the girl's window in the middle of the night and saw some things I shouldn't have seen... I can't explain this even if I want to.

Alvin stood still silently and sighed softly: "Why didn't I realize that you have a bit of a sinister nature before..."

I didn't expect that Sakura, who usually seems gentle and considerate, actually knows how to threaten people.

"There are many things you haven't discovered yet."

Sakura Matou brushed aside a strand of hair that fell on her shoulder and looked at the boy with helplessness on his face. Her eyes seemed to soften a lot.

"My secrets...are more than just these."

Chapter 194: Is this how you use the Command Spell?!

Tohsaka family.

The fireplace cast a particularly lonely shadow on Toosaka Rin, and her tongue licked the firewood, making a crackling sound.

The huge mansion was empty except for a young girl who was sitting on the sofa with her knees hugged, her eyes seemed a little empty.

Toosaka Rin has been in this state ever since she returned home.

On the one hand, it was because Alvin had gone to the Matou family to investigate and hadn't returned yet... and on the other hand, it was related to something she had dreamed about one night.

Logically speaking, if it was a dream, she should have forgotten everything after waking up.

However, as for that dream, Toosaka Rin can still remember every detail of it very clearly.

How his sister hugged Alvin affectionately, and how Alvin and Matou Sakura were so intimate at that time...

If I hadn't happened to see it at that time, what would have happened afterwards?

Even if it was just a 'dream', Toosaka Rin couldn't help but think of such questions.

Rin Toosaka was naturally aware of her sister's feelings for Alvin.

However, she did not think of the relationship between the two as love at first, but rather thought it was a kind of admiration similar to that of a little girl.

——In the beginning, that was indeed the only feeling Matou Sakura had.

But I don’t know when... this feeling started to deteriorate.

Although Matou Sakura usually doesn't show much of her emotions, and even keeps them suppressed... as an older sister, and having been observing her younger sister in the past, Tohsaka Rin can naturally see Matou Sakura's emotions.

But is this really a good thing?

As a Heroic Spirit, nothing would work out with his Master... not to mention that he was King Arthur's husband.

If I hadn't shown up that night, would they...

Toosaka Rin quickly shook her head to dispel the messy thoughts in her mind, picked up the cold black tea and took a sip, feeling the bitterness spreading on the tip of her tongue.

There's no need to overthink it, right? It's just a dream after all.

——What if it wasn’t a dream?

This extremely absurd thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and her fingers unconsciously grasped the bone china cup - just like her tense nerves at this moment.

After all, Sakura's attitude towards Alvin has indeed been a bit too ambiguous recently.

If this isn't a dream...

Toosaka Rin subconsciously looked up in the direction of the Matou family.

The wind and snow were howling outside the window, and the dead branches in the courtyard left messy marks on the glass.

"Why haven't you come back yet..."

……

Late at night in Fuyuki, the streets were already covered with a thick layer of snow, and the street lights on both sides seemed particularly lonely.

Whether in the new city or the old city, few people would go out late at night in early winter.

——Except for the Masters and Servants who participated in the Holy Grail War.

Alvin never thought that he was just out investigating something, but he would be left in the room by Sakura Matou in this way.

"Well, let me ask a question that I'm quite curious about first—"

Matou Sakura sat sideways on the floor, holding a cup of hot water in both hands. She quickly looked up at the young man in front of her and said softly, "Senior, why are you coming to the Matou family so late? Did something important happen?"

Matou Sakura looked quite calm, as if she had already forgotten all the awkwardness that had just happened... Or perhaps, it was precisely to ease the awkwardness and change the subject that she went straight to the point.

"It's a long story..."

Alvin also tacitly skipped over what had just happened, coughed lightly, and gave a brief account of what had happened near Yuanzang Mountain not long ago.

After hearing the last part, Matou Sakura's face showed a thoughtful expression, and she whispered, "In other words, Senior suspected Rider, or that the person who destroyed the Greater Holy Grail was related to the Crest Worms, so he came here to investigate in the middle of the night?"

"If I have to say it, that's it..."

Alvin nodded silently, and then unconsciously looked at the girl in front of him twice more.

Soon, he felt a little more regretful.

Sakura has really grown up... in every way.

If the Sakura Matou in the past had encountered such an embarrassing situation as tonight, she would probably have been so shy that she covered her face and dared not see anyone... But tonight, she handled this matter very maturely and calmly, and even Alvin couldn't help but admire her.

"So... did you find anything suspicious?"

At this moment, Sakura Matou's voice brought Alvin back to reality again.

Alvin opened his mouth, but ultimately shook his head. "I haven't noticed anything suspicious yet... After all, I didn't come to the Matou residence just to investigate what happened tonight."

"if not?"

Matou Sakura tilted her head in confusion.

Alvin stared into Matou Sakura's eyes and said seriously, "Rin and I are worried about you, so we came to check on you."

This is not a complete excuse. Alvin is indeed a little worried about Sakura Matou being alone, especially during the Holy Grail War, when the Master is more likely to be attacked when he is alone.

Matou Sakura was stunned for a moment, then her eyes softened a bit, and she said softly, "Don't worry, senior. I'm different now... Even if I'm alone, there won't be any problems."

Yes... She is completely different now than she was in the past. Most of them, whether they are Masters or Servants, are no match for her.

And in just a while, she will become the 'strongest', even leaving her sister far behind.

"correct--"

Alvin secretly observed the girl in front of him and suddenly asked, "Where's your Servant? You should have summoned a Heroic Spirit by now, so why haven't you seen him yet?"

Matou Sakura suddenly came back to her senses, her expression a little unnatural. She gently turned her face away and said, "It's not convenient for her to come out right now... If there's a chance in the future, I'll let you meet her."

"Will you be disappointed then?"

she asked suddenly.

"Everyone has their secrets, even if you want to keep them secret."

Alvin smiled and said, "As long as it's not a bad thing."

When he said this, the corner of his eye inadvertently glanced at the door.
