Two hours right after the Final match between Negi and Rakan inside the Emiya Mansion.
"Urrrgh! I really want to strangle Rakan! How dare he beat Negi until Negi becomes battered like that!" Arika said who where currently sitting on a chair next to the bed where Negi was being treated.
"Don't angry like that Arika, if Jack doesn't beat Negi, then Negi will never realize that his obsession to became strong using an instant way was something wrong," Clone Nagi said trying to calm his wife. "The feel of pain in battle was sometimes the best way for a newbie fighter to learn something valuable and for Negi the valuable thing is that if you seek instant strength you will not be able to make yourself the strongest."
"Hmmph, why did a men must always learning something valuable through a fights and violence," Arika said while folding her arms across her chest. "Why don't you try learning it in a more civilized way!"
"Well, men are creatures like that, Arika," Clone Nagi said. "Sometimes we prefer to use our feelings rather than logic and common sense, wasn't it my stupidity that made you fall in love with me? who have ordinary untelligence level."
"Uuuh I don't want to admit it but just like you said it's because of your stupidity that you're willing to sacrifice your life to save myself when I'm in danger, that made me fall in love with you," Arika said with a blushing face. "And when you saved me from receiving a death sentence in Megalomesembria, I fell even more in love with you Nagi."
"Ahahahaha Arika Anarchia Enteofushia, the cold-blooded queen of the Kingdom of Vespertatia, fell in love with a stupid mage like me because he saved her like a prince on a white horse," Nagi said, laughing loudly. "Who would have thought that you are someone who likes such clichéd and romantic things?"

"Why did Arika-Hime who had been missing for more than ten years suddenly appear before us and moreover in the same state and didn't undergo any change!?" Rin said who was confused by Arika's appearance. "This is complete nonsense!"
"Well, no one knows where the whereabouts of Arika-Sama who is Negi's mother. She is even considered dead by some people," Kasumi said who was just as confused as Rin. "The last known news about her is that she was taken by force by extremists who wanted to rebuild the Ostia Kingdom right after she gave birth to Negi-Sensei ten years ago."
"Hmm it doesn't matter Arika-Hime appeared suddenly out of nowhere right?" Konoka said who didn't really care about where Arika came from. "The most important thing is that Negi-kun gets his family back as a whole."
"Well, what Konoka said is a truth, the most important thing is that Negi can be reunited with his mother and his family ate complete again," Asuna said, agreeing with Konoka's words. "But somehow when I saw Negi's mother in person, I felt that I had known her for a long time."
Hearing Asuna's words, Rin, Konoka as well as Kasumi who knew Asuna's true identity swallowed their saliva and gulping.
Even though Asuna's original memories had been sealed using magic as well as using medicine. But apparently that wasn't enough to make Asuna no longer remember her sad past.
"Maybe it's just your feelings, Asuna," Konoka said with cold sweat running down her cheeks. "There's no way you've known Arika-Hime for a long time, because today is the first day you've met her."
"Hmmph but, my instincts tell me that this isn't the first time I've met her," Asuna said with a face that looked like she couldn't believe Konoka's words. "My instincts are never wrong, because I'm someone who always relies on my instincts more than my own brain."
"Asuna, even the most powerful instincts can go wrong, you know," Kasumi said who looked panicked. "Even someone with the most genius brain can make mistakes, let alone you whose level of intelligence is below average. Even though humans are God's most perfect creatures, they still cannot escape mistakes."

"Grrr why doesn't Yukihime-Sama recognize me! And why are we both locked up like this!" Karin shouted who was locked up together with Touta in the Emiya residence's dungeon. "The strangest thing is why the adult form of Yukihime-sama is completely different from what it should be."
"Yukihime looks very happy when she is making out with great-grandfather," Touta said who looked sad. "Besides that great-grandfather called Yukihime by the nickname Arika! How could that be! Shouldn't in this era great-grandfather still not be found, plus why can Yukihime get out of Mahora even though in this era Yukihime should still be sealed in Mahora Gakuen!"
While Touta and Karin were busy complaining, Shirou and Takamichi who had just arrived at the Emiya residence entered the dungeon to interrogate Karin and Touta.
"Evangeline, whom you call Yukihime, whose real identity is Arika Anarchia Enteofushia, the last queen of the ancient kingdom of Vespertatia, as well as the wife of Nagi Springfield, the Thousand Master. It's only natural that she feels happy making out with her own husband," Shirou said, who at this time was right in front of the prison room where Touta and Karin were being held.
"I really want to know what two unknowns like you guys from an alternate time line are doing in this time line."
Shirou's words that just appeared really surprised Touta and Karin. Because the two of them had absolutely no idea that their identities could be known so easily.
"How did you know that the two of us are from different timeline!" Karin shouted. "Even the greatest telepath or psychometry user wouldn't be able to break through the special magic wall created by Yukihime-sama to protect both of our minds!"
"The magic wall that protects your minds is indeed very well made I admit that," Shirou said with a face that looked cold. "But there are many ways to find out the identities of the two of you. For example by looking at the memory in the blood of the two of you. I can found the identity of the two of you. Touta Konoe is a clone of Negi and Asuna plus Isth Karin Orte, or Yuuki Karin."
Karin turned pale when someone mentioned her real name, she never liked the real name she had. Because it will only remind hsd of the biggest sin and mistake she has ever made in her life.

"Betraying the avatar of the Allmighty as well as the son of God is the stupidest mistake a human can make, even more stupid than making a pact with a devil," Takamichi said who deliberately provoked Karin into releasing more information so she wiilling to admit her identity.
"Well, but if you don't betray Him then humans will never be redeemed so I guess your act of betrayal has great benefits for humanity."
"Shut up!" Karin shouted with tears flowing from her eyes. "Silence! Silence! Silence! Silence! Don't remind me of things I've worked so hard to forget! Don't make me remember the stupid act that caused me to get a curse that made my body undead!"
"Ka-Karin-Senpai calm down!" Touta said trying to calm Karin down. "Don't be provoked by the words of that man with glasses! I-I believe that you have a good reason for committing an act that you perceive as a mistake. So don't be provoked by that man and return to your old self."
"Touta Konoe, unfortunately what Karin did is still a very big mistake whether you like it or not," Shirou said. "He had the choice not to do that, but she still did it just because of thirty silver coins, until she finally regretted her actions and tried to kill herself, but unfortunately the actions she did made her unable to die, even though the eternal curse that she havd could disappear if she really wanted to repent and regret the sins she had committed. But if she is still immortal, it means she still doesn't want to repent or regret the mistakes she made. She tells you that she's feel sorry for what she did but actually she's still stubborn and doesn't want to repent. The suicide she committed is the biggest proof that she doesn't want to repent!"
