"Bazett~ Go wash the clothes."
"Yes!"
"Bazett, if you have time, please wipe the floor in the hallway outside."
"Alright!"
"Bazett, Bazett~ There are quite a few fallen leaves in the backyard, remember to clean them up."
"Understood!"
Because of Cú Chulainn, Bazett, to repay Mo Shuying for saving her life, voluntarily helped with the housework.
She and Emiya Shirou made breakfast together that morning, and Emiya Shirou was so touched he cried.
Although Bazett's breakfast was just so-so, at least she had the heart, didn't she? In any case, Bazett's favorability with Emiya Shirou soared.
Add to that Bazett doing laundry, mopping, sweeping, and serving tea and water, and you'd find that the Emiya Residence had gained a group of idle gentlemen and one exploited maid.
"Have some tea, Mr. Shuying!"
A cup of tea was handed to Mo Shuying. Mo Shuying took the tea, took a sip, and smiled.
"You really don't need to go to such extremes. Take a break."
However, Bazett shook her head vigorously.
"This is all what I should do, and it's the only thing I can do within my capabilities. Thank you, Mr. Shuying, you've worked hard."
Bazett was most grateful to Mo Shuying. Although Mo Shuying was in casual clothes now, he had actually been maintaining Avalon's existence, which constantly consumed Mana. Fortunately, Mo Shuying had ample Mana; if it were Emiya Shirou, he would probably have been drained dry.
"It's fine, I just did what I could."
Mo Shuying took a sip of tea, a smile playing on his lips. Honestly, this scene of everyone gathered together, enjoying themselves, was truly wonderful and rare.
After all, when he first watched the Fate series, very few endings were perfect, and many were quite tragic.
This current situation could be considered a wish fulfilled, with everyone happy.
At this moment, Tohsaka Rin and Red Archer returned, recounting what happened outside.
"We circled around outside, and while we didn't find any other Servants or Masters, we did discover a problem."
"The Geomantic Vein is shifting. It seems someone is altering its direction. The Geomantic Vein convergence point at Ryuudou Temple is already changing."
Changing a Geomantic Vein would require immense power and extremely high magical aptitude.
Mo Shuying looked back at the innocent-looking Cú Chulainn. Mo Shuying understood that even if Cú Chulainn were perfectly fine, he couldn't accomplish something of this magnitude.
"Could Medea be up to something again??" Mo Shuying asked.
Tohsaka Rin shook her head.
"No, we went up and asked, and Medea doesn't know either. She's trying to control it now, but the effect isn't obvious."
"Could she be lying to you? It wouldn't be the first time, after all." Luvia spoke up; she didn't trust Medea much.
Tohsaka Rin shook her head again.
"The loss of the Geomantic Vein is also a weakening for her. She shouldn't do something that harms herself so much."
"Can you find out where the new Geomantic Vein convergence point is?" Mo Shuying asked.
"Not yet. The Geomantic Vein is only subtly shifting right now, and the trend of concentration is very slight. Medea can't even track it. We can only wait and see for now; perhaps there will be other developments. I've already spoken with Medea, and if she finds anything new, she'll contact me immediately."
Tohsaka Rin had already made arrangements, so there was no need to say more. Mo Shuying's mind flashed with the image of that woman who used poison, then the figure of an Empress surfaced, overlapping.
Could it be her? If it's her… then it's not impossible.
What Mo Shuying was thinking of was an Empress known as a "venomous woman," considered one of the earliest "venomous women" in human history, and her magic was also extremely powerful.
"We can actually put the Geomantic Vein shifting aside for now, because even if it shifts, it won't affect us much. The critical issue right now is the other three Masters and Servants. The Caster incident has already shown that the other party is not friendly. Both Saber and the person who later used poison clearly have murderous intent, so everyone should be more careful when going out."
According to Bazett, that poisonous snake was directed at her at the time. The other party clearly wanted to eliminate her, the Master, from the root.
Since the other party had murderous intent, this matter demanded absolute caution, because in terms of individual strength, none of the Masters present were a match for Bazett. If even Bazett couldn't handle it, they were in even greater danger.
"Illya, you'll be staying here for the next few days. Don't run around, understand? I'll have Sister Oogata help you and Miyu ask for leave from school."
Tohsaka Rin thought about how dangerous Illya and the others were, so she reminded them. These two days were holidays, so it was fine, but they had school tomorrow.
"Okay, I understand." Illya obediently agreed, a happy expression on Miyu's face as she sat beside her.
"Alright, nothing more for now. Don't panic too much, everyone. Our alliance is very strong, and we will definitely achieve final victory. That's all, meeting adjourned."
Luvia waved her hand, announcing the meeting adjourned. Everyone dispersed again, going off to do their own things.
Illya, Miyu, and Gray, the three little girls, huddled together. Luvia and Tohsaka Rin went off to discuss something again. Red Archer looked displeased with a few trees in the courtyard, projected pruning shears, and began his performance. Astolfo, wearing a skirt, scurried happily over to Cú Chulainn and squatted down, poking him with a twig.
"Astolfo, stop messing around. If you're not busy, hop on your mount and scout the skies. Oh, and remember to ask Red Archer for his invisibility cloak."
Mo Shuying called out to Astolfo.
As soon as Astolfo heard he could go for a ride, he immediately perked up.
"A ride! Invisibility cloak! Awesome!"
Astolfo went off to find Red Archer. Cú Chulainn sighed in relief, not because Astolfo was bothering him, but because from that angle just now, he could see things he shouldn't have. His eyes were stinging a bit.
"Sigh, such a good-looking kid… why is he a guy?!"
Cú Chulainn lamented.
Mo Shuying's expression froze for a moment, then he nodded in agreement.
"Exactly."
...
Night fell once more, enveloping Fuyuki City in darkness.
On an uninhabited hillside, a silver-haired girl reached out and touched the ground, sensing the Geomantic Vein flowing beneath the earth. After a long while, she spoke.
"It's truly being altered. The Geomantic Vein, which hasn't changed in 200 years, has actually shifted. Who could it be…?"
There was a hint of displeasure in the silver-haired girl's voice. She was the guardian of Fuyuki City's Geomantic Vein, a job that was supposed to be incredibly easy. Who would have thought that today she would discover the Geomantic Vein had moved?
She, who always avoided trouble, couldn't help but feel resentful. Just then, Saber Mordred walked over, dressed in comfortable, casual clothes, hands clasped behind her head, and said,
"Still not done, Master?"
The silver-haired girl shook her head.
"I still don't know who's behind this, but they must be powerful. Things are getting more and more troublesome. Damn it, do I really have to go ask that guy for help?"
The silver-haired girl gritted her teeth, looking towards a nearby abandoned high-rise building. There, lived someone she—or rather, her father—knew.
