Rin, who had been in a coma for a day, finally opened her eyes slowly.
Rin leaned against a big tree and slowly lifted her body, looking at Gilgamesh, who was holding a wine glass and admiring the sunrise not far away, and coughed softly a few times.
Gilgamesh walked to Rin's front holding the wine glass, looked at this friend, raised the glass, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Rin! Are you awake?"
"Yeah! Are you leaving again?"
"Yes!"
"Can't you stay?"
"No! But Rin, we will definitely meet again, in Uruk! I will be waiting there for your arrival. Goodbye!"
Rin looked melancholically at the golden wine glass that had fallen to the ground, stood up, patted the dirt off her body, and turned to walk in the direction of the Tohsaka Annex. After all, there was a whole pile of things waiting for Rin to handle.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was one week after the war. For ordinary people outside, it was just that the unlucky Fuyuki City had been hit by a mysterious meteorite by the sea, and then turned into ruins under the resulting chain of natural disasters.
But for the Magecraft world that knew the truth of this Holy Grail War, the aftermath brought by this Holy Grail War was slowly unfolding.
The King of Conquerors slowly sat up, gripped his hands, which were full of real sensation, in disbelief, and then scratched his head while looking at Da Vinci and Touko, who were staring at him with smiles on their faces.
"Little Miss is truly amazing! But where is she?"
Da Vinci covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Rin has been avoiding Touko these past few days because she broke her promise to her. Furthermore, Rin is also arranging the matters needed for the spirit origin transfer; she plans to move the entire underground laboratory to London."
"Ah! Although I don't understand, what Little Miss is going to do must be very impressive! Hahahaha!"
Touko, standing to the side with a cigarette in her mouth, walked out of the room, came to the laboratory corridor, looked at the monitor not far away, and spoke.
"Rin! I actually... well, never mind... I still really want the Third Magic. But it's not your fault that you didn't fulfill your promise this time, after all, an opponent like Sajyou Manaka is an unexpected event. By the way, Rin, I am very interested in your spirit origin project. Can you continue to let me be a specially hired staff member for your Tohsaka Family?"
London. Rin, who had already completed all preparations in the ruins of Fuyuki City, walked out of London Airport alone. Arriving outside the airport, Rin soon saw Marisbury looking at her with a smile.
"Welcome back!"
At this moment, the car door opened. Tohsaka Aoi, who hadn't seen her daughter for a long time, looked at the unharmed Rin excitedly, covered her mouth, and kept herself from making any sound that would ruin the atmosphere.
At the same time, Tokiomi also stepped out of the car elegantly, but the worry in his eyes could not be concealed no matter how elegant his posture was.
As parents, Tokiomi and Aoi were extremely worried when they learned the news of Fuyuki City's disappearance. At that time, Aoi even fainted several times due to excessive worry, and if Tokiomi hadn't been stopped by Marisbury, he probably would have brought his Mystic Code and returned to Fuyuki City immediately.
As the Holy Grail War ended, the reappearance of 'Fuyuki City' only intensified their worry. Fortunately, after returning to the annex basement, Rin reported her safety to Tokiomi and Aoi immediately, allowing the two of them to set aside their worries.
"Dad, Mom, I'm sorry for making you worry!"
Tokiomi smiled and patted Rin's shoulder, then stepped aside to make room.
Aoi rushed to Rin's front excitedly, hugged Rin, and began to sob silently.
"Mom, I'm sorry! Don't cry, if you keep crying, you won't be pretty anymore!"
Hearing Rin's words, Aoi finally broke into a smile through her tears.
After chatting with her parents for a while, Rin returned to the Animusphere family castle with Marisbury and accompanied her parents to tell them about her experiences in this Holy Grail War, of course, with the dangerous parts omitted.
Afterwards, Rin had lunch, bid farewell to her parents, and came to Marisbury's study.
In front of the desk, Marisbury slowly raised his head, smiled slightly at Rin who pushed the door and entered, and then pointed to the sofa on the side, signaling Rin to sit down.
"Rin, you really poked a hole in the sky this time!"
"You can't blame me for this time. I think Lorelei and Waver, who returned first, should have already explained the existence of Sajyou Manaka!"
"Yeah! But after all, you have a criminal record. The reason you haven't been given a sealing designation is precisely because of the explanations from the surviving Magi."
"Alright, Marisbury, I didn't come to you to talk about this! According to your requirements, my funds have been prepared; they are all precious materials and gold and jewelry. I think with your network, selling these slowly shouldn't be a problem, right!"
"Of course! Chaldea's investment isn't all-in-one either; we can proceed slowly!"
"Then shouldn't you fulfill the contract!"
Marisbury tapped the table, pondered for a while, and then spoke.
"Anytime is fine. I can even hand over the position of Astronomy Branch Lord to you in advance! However, the Director of Chaldea must be me!"
"Of course! But only while you still exist or are alive! I am looking forward to the scene where those Lords see me appearing at the Lord's meeting!"
Marisbury's mind flashed with the image of Rin appearing at the Lord's meeting, and he revealed an elegant smile, then took out a document and placed it in front of Rin.
"Once your funds are in place, I will go out for a period of time to deal with the assets you brought. At that time, you can pick up this document at any time and convene the Lord's meeting to announce that you have become the new Astronomy Branch Lord."
"It's a deal!"
At night, in the basement of the Animusphere castle, Rin began her setup in the basement that she had ordered the Servants to clean up. A few hours later, Rin, having finished the setup, patted the dust off her hands, and then connected with Da Vinci, who was far away in Japan, via a communicator.
"Da Vinci, the setup is complete. We can begin the spirit origin transfer!"
"Okay, Rin!"
As Da Vinci, far away in Japan, pressed the button, the entire basement and the people inside began to turn into countless spirit origin particles, passing through a blue tunnel, and appearing in the basement of the Animusphere castle.
Seeing the laboratory, which was gradually gathering bit by bit in a spirit origin state, Rin nodded with satisfaction. Then, after the transfer was completed, Rin opened the laboratory door, walked into the hall, and began to check every part of the laboratory to ensure the integrity of the transfer.
After checking around, Rin returned to the hall and asked Da Vinci beside her.
"Da Vinci! How are they?"
Da Vinci took out a notebook, flipped through it casually, and then said to Rin.
"Sakura, Fujino, Alexander, Touko, Illya, and I reacted to this transfer, while the others didn't notice anything!"
"That many? Didn't you say that there are very few people who can become qualified candidates?"
"Rin, Fujino, Alexander, and I all possess the Servant state and are naturally adapted to this situation. I suspect that anyone who can survive using a blank spirit origin can obtain this state. Perhaps Kirei is also a qualified candidate, but he is still in a coma, so his reaction cannot be known."
"Is that so? Then Shirou, Illya, and Kiritsugu would also be. Perhaps that Shinji we picked up is too. It seems the start is very smooth!"
"By the way! Rin, why did you pick up that Shinji?"
"I felt he could be helpful for our next step, so I just picked him up. Alright, Sakura, Fujino, and I will go see Dad and Mom first. You guys just stay in the laboratory until I inherit the Lord position!"
"OK~!"
