"So for the school festival, the Occult Research Club is the ghost house that was combined with a fortune-telling stand and a cafe? And Rias Gremory calling it the Occult Mansion?" Rin was eating her lunch with Shirou under a giant tree in the forest behind the new school building.
"From the information that I get from our classmate, the Occult Research Club has made a ghost house for two years straight, and this year they are making a ghost house plus more attractions," Shirou replied while eating the takoyaki that he made in the morning. "But I think Rias Gremory really are didn't have a lot creativity, a Ghost house three years straight and this years she only add two more attraction to make it a little different from the last two years, even though she was a Japanholic I think she need more research about the culture of our country."
"Maybe she made a ghost house for three years straight because she thought that was the best attraction for the Occult Research Club, which is researching occultism," Arturia said, who was happily devouring five takoyaki at a time right beside Shirou. "The kendo club that I follow as a member didn't make any attractions this year because they didn't have a budget, and that was perfect for me because that means I can focus on touring the school to find good food to eat."
"Our class only made a mini, home-made roller coaster, and because that attraction didn't need our help to run it and also because the three members of the Science Club in our class are already finishing the attraction, a lot of student at our class have a lot of free time," Luvia said while eating a sandwich that was made by Miyu for her.
"Shirou-kun, you look so relaxed when a lot of other male students in our school are busy helping their class or their club; why didn't you help the Occult Research Club?" Asked Rin."Well, I already finished my part in an instant using a Magecraft, so I didn't need to do anything anymore at the old school building, while Issei and also Kiba still hadn't finished their parts and were busy cutting and putting together wood and such by using a hammer and a saw.
While the other members, who are girls like Asia and Xenovia, are mainly making costumes and changing the interiors of rooms, They are making costumes for the café and the ghost-house, while others customise unused classrooms for personal use. Even Ravel Phenex, who just joined the club, is working very hard to help out," Shirou replied while finishing eating his lunch.
"The imouto of Raiser Phenex that you beat a couple months ago? Why is she going to school in here? Is she having some hidden agenda by coming to Kuoh?" Asked Luvia with a face full of suspicion and anger.
"Who knows?" Shirou replied in a calm manner. "But during the lunch break yesterday, I helped her tour our school along with Rin, right after she had a fight with Koneko. What a hassle! It looks like Raiser's little sister has a feeling for me from the look in her eyes toward me."
"Ahhahaha, so that's why yesterday at the lunch break you and Rin didn't come back to the class," Arturia said with a jealous expression on her face. "That was because you and Rin are busy accompanying that Phenex girl! Why didn't you tell me about that Shirou!"
"Yeah, Sherou, care to explain to us why you weren't telling us?" Asked Luvia while biting handkerchief like always when she feel jealous.
"To tell you the truth, all the stupid things that happened at the lunch break yesterday in the O.R.C. room, I totally forgot to tell the two of you about that thing," Shirou said while gulping because he knew that he was in deep trouble. "So I'm sorry if I make the three of you feel angry toward me."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxMeanwhile, at the O.R.C. room, Rias, who was pissed off with Shirou for finishing his job in making all the property that she needs for the Occult Mansion in an instant, is busy accompanying an important guest, her cousin Sairaorg Bael.
"So Sairaorg, what are you doing by coming here to this school while I'm very busy with my activities at school? Can you please explain to me? Because right now I'm really pissed off because of something!" Rias looked at her cousin with a very sharp gaze, to the point of making Sairaorg feel afraid of her. "And don't tell me it because of the rating games between us! Because from what I know, we already finished the talk about the rating games more than three days ago!"
"Eeh Rias, I was coming here not to talk about the Rating Games; I was coming here to meet you personally because I need help from Emiya Shirou." Sairaorg feels that he has come at a bad time because his cousin Rias is right now feeling really angry. But he doesn't have any other choice right now, her mother condition was getting worse so he must got a help from Shirou no matter what.
"You want to meet with Emiya-kun?" Rias was confused. "What did you need with him?"
"I read in an ancient book that the King of Heroes Gilgamesh, who is trying to end the era of gods in the past, has a medicine inside his arsenal, the Gate of Babylon, that can cure any abnormal condition and also any kind of disease. Even that medicine is strong enough to regenerate a missing limb or vital organ, so I want to meet with Emiya Shirou, who is the current owner of the Gate of Babylon, to let me buy that medicine from him at any price that he wants. Because right now I really need that medicine," Sairaorg's desperate look made Rias realize her aunt and mother, Sairaorg, were in a dire condition. Because there is no way Sairaorg will come to meet her in a hurry if he is not in an emergency situation.
"So Obaa- Sama's condition is getting worse, huh, even though it is supposed to be only a mental depression. But her condition is getting bad every years, are you still not having a proof who is the one that poisoning your mother?" Asked Rias.
"Sadly, I still don't have a proof for that, and beside that, there is no sign of poison in my mother's body, even though I already called the best doctor at the Underworld to check her condition, so my only hope right now is the all-curing medicine inside the Gate of Babylon," Sairaorg looks really frustrated and sad right now. Because if he cannot help his mother quickly, then her mother will die.
"Can you help me persuade him to help me, Rias?"
"Well, it depends on his mood," Rias said with a sigh. "Emiya-kun is a person who will help people who need help, sincerely. But sometime if his mood is bad then he even reject my wish. But I think if it about Obaa-Sama who are in an emergency situation, I think he will help you without asking anything as a payment. He is a weird person who feel bad if he cannot help someone who are in a direct situation, but he is not an altruism idiot that can be used by a bad people, but I'm sure he will gladly help you, Sairaorg."
