"Little Rin didn't come today?"
Akatsuki 'Bored to Death' 'Idle as Ever' brunestud spent the day wandering around Fuyuki City.
"If it's Rin, she should have gone to the Clock Tower."
Kirei Kotomine was wearing his priest's vestments as usual, but his appearance was different today; he was carrying a backpack, heading somewhere unknown.
"Teacher has decided to transplant the Magecraft Crest to Rin. After the first transplant session, they will stay at the Clock Tower for a few months until the transplant is fully complete before returning to Fuyuki City. She will likely go to the Clock Tower for long-term study during her middle school years; Teacher asked me to inform you of this."
Tohsaka Rin is going to the Clock Tower to study?
"In that case, I'll send Sakura over in a few years too. It seems there are fewer activities to kill time now. By the way, are you going on a long trip with that backpack?"
Kirei Kotomine nodded. "Correct. This is my daughter, Kallen Hortensia, the future person in charge of the Fuyuki area. My father is about to take up a post at the next Church, and I would like to ask you to look after her."
"Kallen?"
Akatsuki looked doubtfully at Kallen, who was sitting quietly in the Church. Remembering some of Kallen's settings, she couldn't help but click her tongue inwardly. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Such a good Young lady, what a pity she met a pervert like Nasu."
A Masochistic Spiritual Medium constitution, with a natural attraction to existences like demons. At the age of nine, this talent was discovered by the priest who raised her, and she was sent to a monastery to be used as a spare part ever since. However, none of that would happen anymore.
The current Kallen was only four or five years old. Having left the Church and come to Fuyuki City, she had clearly broken away from her past fate.
"What's wrong? If it's about the expenses..."
"No."
Akatsuki interrupted Kirei Kotomine. "This child must look very much like her mother."
"Ah, but only that."
Akatsuki smiled helplessly. Had she unknowingly become a nursery? But since it concerned the changes in the world line, Akatsuki eventually decided it was better to handle it personally.
Watching Kirei Kotomine leave, Akatsuki turned her gaze toward Kallen, who was sitting in the pews.
"Anyway, let's find a school for her first..."
Under that pervert Nasu's settings, Kallen's former guardian, in order to save on child-rearing costs and prevent Kallen from becoming smart, did not send her to a school or similar institution. This also led to the gradual distortion of Kallen's values.
Although she and Shirou Emiya are essentially the same type of person, and her personality is somewhat similar to her father Kirei Kotomine, these are all things that can be successfully changed through guidance later in life.
Human nature is inherently evil; persuade them toward goodness.
Of course, everyone understands the principle of seeking benefit and avoiding harm. Humans are also animals. If she really encountered the kind of person who was born bad and couldn't be killed, Akatsuki's usual method was to give them a beating.
Beat them until they developed a psychological illness, so that every time they did something bad, they would remember the experience of being beaten. Over time, their brain would gradually guide them to behave themselves in order to protect itself.
However, this process was very tedious and required a long time, so Akatsuki usually just killed the opponent directly.
"But what kind of methods did Kirei Kotomine use to get those people in the Church to let someone Kallen's age be the person in charge of the Fuyuki area?"
Akatsuki shrugged, stopped thinking about it, and walked straight toward Kallen sitting in the pews.
After arranging things for Kallen, Akatsuki received a call from Kiritsugu Emiya, who was far away at the Einzbern Family home. He seemed to have encountered a terrorist attack abroad. Although they were fine, all the passing tourists except for a young boy had died.
To Akatsuki's surprise, that young boy's name was Shirou.
Furthermore, Kiritsugu Emiya and Irisviel seemed to intend to adopt him, so his name should be—Shirou Emiya.
After hanging up the phone, Akatsuki immediately understood whose handiwork it was: gaia had made a move.
To prevent the world from sliding into the FGO world line, the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli who was gradually replacing this world's original gaia began to use certain methods to influence the people within the main plot.
"..." To this, Akatsuki didn't say much. She neither opposed nor approved of such methods, so she chose silence. But silence could not solve the problem.
gaia had already sown the seed. If Shirou could bear fruit in the future, Akatsuki would certainly look at Shirou Emiya in a new light.
Of course, Akatsuki was not completely inactive. All she had to do was add some 'unknown variables' before the'seemingly fixed ending' arrived.
Being ordered around all the time did not fit Akatsuki's personality.
Inside another world.
The Fourth Holy Grail War had just ended not long ago. Pandora's Box still could not be opened, and the black mud inside poured out, killing all participants of the Fourth Holy Grail War. In this world, Tokiomi Tohsaka, Tohsaka Rin, the Matou Family's Old Maggot Matou Zouken who was attached to Kariya Matou, and Shinji, who was five years older than Matou Sakura, all died in the black mud.
This sudden disaster broke the Sakugetsu Family's barrier. Miyu Sakugetsu heard the strong desires of the outside world and eliminated the disaster, thereby activating her own 'Holy Grail' functions. Because of this, she was discovered and adopted by the Emiya father and son. After Kiritsugu Emiya bought the Emiya Residence, he began to study Miyu Sakugetsu but could never find a method for large-scale wish-granting.
Shortly after, Miyu Sakugetsu was adopted by the Emiya family and renamed Miyu Emiya.
"Yo, Shirou. Are you helping Emiya with the housework as usual today?"
Akatsuki gave a smiling greeting as she looked at Shirou Emiya, who was carrying lunch.
"Yes. Do you want to eat too, Sister Akatsuki? I'll go make an extra portion for you in a bit."
Little Shirou Emiya carried the tray toward Kiritsugu Emiya's room, while Akatsuki just smiled and didn't answer his question.
"Shirou, do you want to protect Miyu?"
"Why ask that? Isn't it natural for a brother to protect his sister?"
Looking at Shirou Emiya, who was eating lunch with Miyu Emiya nearby, Akatsuki sipped red wine while listening to Shirou Emiya's answer.
"Sister Akatsuki, drinking in broad daylight isn't a good habit!"
"Yes, yes, yes."
Akatsuki waved her hand dismissively. She had come to this world a few days ago through a certain method, and her main purpose for being here was naturally to add some difficulty for a certain black-haired loli.
"By the way, to what extent can you go?"
"What do you mean?"
As a child, Shirou Emiya couldn't quite understand Akatsuki's words, but he could sense that there was more to her speech than met the eye.
"Of course I'll do everything in my power to protect Miyu!"
"That's good. Shirou, Miyu, hold out your hands."
Shirou Emiya and Miyu Emiya looked at Akatsuki in confusion, but they still held out their hands.
"These are the magic circuits and matching Magecraft Crests I'm giving you. They can trigger 'miracles' at specific moments."
Two drops of fresh blood dripped into the palms of Shirou Emiya and Miyu Emiya respectively. Upon contact with their flesh, Akatsuki's blood rapidly entered their bodies.
"You make it sound so grand, but there's nothing special about it?"
Akatsuki landed a hand-chop on Shirou Emiya's head with a 'pa'.
"Those are two drops of my heart's blood, very precious. And didn't I say they're only useful at'specific' moments?"
On the other side, inside the London Clock Tower.
Having accepted the first round of Magecraft Crest transplantation, Tohsaka Rin could feel her body trembling uncontrollably. This was a process every Magician had to experience, and the pain would be remembered by all Magicians for a lifetime.
"This bit of pain is nothing!"
Recalling Akatsuki's extremely arrogant face at the Fuyuki Church, Tohsaka Rin gritted her teeth and tried to make herself look perfectly fine on the outside. "Next time, I'll definitely show you!"
Thinking about the time she was rubbed into the ground by Akatsuki at the Fuyuki Church, Tohsaka Rin's teeth itched with anger. For some reason, she always had an impulse to get back at Akatsuki.
