After Shirou fainted, several scenes slowly flashed through his mind.

A white-haired young man stood in the endless wasteland, surrounded by corpses.

The young man is fighting, obeying orders to attack his target, and completing the task mechanically.

Unknowingly, the young man forgot his original intention, his original purpose, and why he wanted to become the agent of restraint.

Gradually, the young man gave up his worries.

Until one day, the young man felt the call of another world. What came into view was a different girl and boy, living in harmony. Seeing everything familiar and unfamiliar, the young man knew that he had a chance to meet that him.

The man who aspires to be a messenger of justice.

When Shirou woke up again, he was lying in a familiar yet unfamiliar room. He remembered that Sakura and Shinji had invited them to their home to play. He also remembered that the photo of Uncle Kariya who died long ago was always there when he saw it.

They were all looking at the old man next door who was smiling deeply, and even though they couldn't see them, they were hiding in the shadows.

"This is Sakura's room. I still remember the first time I saw Sakura. She was indeed much cuter than Rin. But I had already promised Rin, so I continued to stay with Rin." Shirou slowly thought about the past five years.

their memories.

"Magic power can't be used. It seems to be some special means." Shirou planned to use magic power, but as soon as he thought about it, his body's circuits would ache.

"Senior, you're awake." Shirou, who had not paid attention to the outside world, saw Sakura walking in and sitting next to him.

Seeing Sakura, who had no relationship with Loli at all, Shirou had already lost all interest in her, except for many years of friendship.

"Senior, why are you so indifferent to me? You were very good to me before, why?" Sakura looked at Shirou sitting next to her, without any thoughts or changes, and was very disappointed.

"Speaking of which, senior, your servant was captured by us just now. He is really loyal." Sakura looked at Shirou's eyes and finally found Shirou's weakness.

"Don't hurt her, she's just a poor person." Shirou didn't know how to protect her, so he could only try to stay calm.

"Senior, don't worry, I won't mess around, and nothing will happen to her." Sakura watched Shirou relax because of what she said, feeling happy and jealous at the same time.

"Senior, why are you so interested in an outsider but not so enthusiastic towards me? Why am I not as good as them?" Sakura saw that Shirou had always been lukewarm towards her, and she couldn't stand it anymore, so she finally wanted to ask him.

Shirou expressed his feelings.

"Senior, look at me." Sakura grabbed Shirou's shoulders and pulled Shirou towards her. Looking at Shirou's face, Sakura thought of the senior she admired, who had always been gentle to her senior, and who had always protected her senior.

, but she knew that every time Shirou did these things, his sister would always appear behind him.

"Senior, I don't know what you think of me, but senior, I like you."

Seeing Sakura confessing to him, Shirou didn't know how to respond to Sakura. After all, although he had feelings for Sakura, they were just a simple friend or a future sister-in-law. They were not as serious as Rin.

"If I could change back to the same person as before, senior would like me more, right?" Sakura looked at Shirou's changed expression and had already guessed Shirou's hobbies that he had hidden for a long time.

He is interested in his loli self, but is not interested in his grown-up self. As a loli servant, no matter how you think about it, it shows that Shirou is a loli controller.

To Shirou's surprise, after Sakura said those words, countless shadows appeared on her body, wrapping her whole body. Gradually, the shadows retreated under Sakura's body, and Sakura's body gradually became smaller and returned to what it looked like five years ago.

"If this is the case, will you like me more, senior?" Sakura watched Shirou's expression changing and knew that she was right.

"Why, it's like this." Shirou was very surprised when he looked at Sakura who had changed back to the previous one. It was not just a simple change, but her body had really changed back to what it was before.

"Because I have been practicing magic in the past, my grandfather did not compare me with the insect arts passed down from their ancestors. Instead, he asked me to practice magic that suits my own void and shadow attributes. However, because there was no guidance on how to practice, I accidentally fixed the development of my body.

Although the circuit has grown, my body has not. I originally thought that senior would hate me, but I didn’t expect this."

Shirou's heart trembled as he looked at Sakura holding him and snuggling against him.

"Senior, you haven't answered me yet. Do you like me?" Sakura raised her head and looked at Shirou with her eyes. Seeing Shirou's indifferent face, she finally became panicked and excited.

"I, but, Rin, I can't betray Rin." Although Shirou was moved when he saw Sakura who was willing to reveal her heart for him, he couldn't leave her at will after having been with Rin for many years.

"Then, senior, after this war is over, take me away and leave here." Sakura saw that Shirou was shaken, and said what she wanted to say most.

"I, think about it, give me some time." Shirou saw that there was still some buffering time, so he temporarily agreed to Sakura. After this time, he didn't know what his future would be like.

"Then senior, let's form an alliance. Anyway, you and sister have no need for the Holy Grail. Sister just wants to win. Let's talk about it after we eliminate other opponents."

"Well, then, lend Archer to me. I want to take him to meet someone, okay, Sakura." Seeing Loli Sakura huddled in his arms obediently, Shirou felt reassured and a little excited.

"Okay, but don't hurt him. Archer is also a good person."

After finishing the conversation with Sakura, Shirou took Jack and Red A and walked back to Rin's house.

Along the way, Shirou wanted to express his purpose to Red A. After Red A found out, he didn't say much. He just said to Shirou: "Try to use that power as little as possible, or you will lose yourself."

After hearing this, Shirou disagreed and felt that he would be able to master this power sooner or later.

Looking at Jack, who was already tired and fell asleep on his back, Shirou felt that his burden had become much heavier. After all, he was now carrying not only his own life, but also theirs.

Red A looked at the harmonious scene between Shirou and Jack. Although he did not experience the same thing as him this time, this ending was not bad.

"By the way, Archer, you have something to do with me, right?" Shirou looked at Hong A, who had a slight change in his attitude towards him, and expressed his thoughts.

"Indeed, I have something to do with you, but don't worry about it, you just have to be yourself." Hong A saw that Shirou was already walking on a path that was very similar to her but different from hers, and did not interfere or say anything.
