A few years later, Tohsaka Rin and Matou Sakura went to study abroad at the Clock Tower together. Because her personality was sealed, Illya's body seemed to undergo reverse growth, so she truly became Shirou Emiya's younger sister in every sense.
Meanwhile, Kiritsugu Emiya, Maiya Hisau, and Irisviel traveled around the world to prevent rituals like the Holy Grail War from being restarted. Illya was taken care of by two maids brought from the Einzbern Family.
After observing that the Shirou Emiya and Miyu Emiya of the other world were fine, Akatsuki once again entered a state of slacking off.
Every day, she was either taking Saber around to feast on everything or playing forbidden games with Justeaze, Arcueid, and Saber.
A strange sense of regularity emerged from her irregular lifestyle.
"So, why did you come looking for us?"
The Blonde Loli looked at Akatsuki with envy; she also wanted to live a life of nightly revelry like Akatsuki, but unfortunately, a certain overly shy fellow was far too oblivious to romance.
"Why are you looking at me?"
Suddenly, the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli being stared at by the Blonde Loli was completely bewildered.
"Nothing, hmph~"
The Blonde Loli turned her head away, avoiding the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli's face. She was afraid she wouldn't be able to resist pouncing on her and getting beaten up again; there were a few times before when the Blonde Loli tried a night raid, only to be discovered by the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli and hung up for a beating.
As for why the counter force needed to sleep, they actually didn't need to; it was just a habit formed during their time as humans that led them to continue imitating the act of sleeping.
"So why exactly did you come to find us? I thought we were even?"
Akatsuki frowned. "Even? I haven't even settled the score with you for dragging me back ten years without permission. Besides, Sakura and Rin are so cute; what if I couldn't help myself and committed a crime like the original Shinji Matou!"
"Tch, as if what you usually do is any different from Shinji Matou."
The Black-haired, straight-haired Loli curled her lip and retorted under the Blonde Loli's shocked gaze.
"Wait, wait! Why are you provoking her again! This person is narrow-minded; you can't joke with her!"
Akatsuki:...Next time you two talk bad about me, could you at least do it behind my back?
However, the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli's words made Akatsuki reflect once more. Speaking of which, the last time she reflected was after she first went to the Millennium Castle and kissed Arcueid. So, she once again pondered her actions.
It seems... there really isn't much difference from that seaweed-head Shinji Matou?
Making scummy remarks to Sakura, Saber, and Justeaze.
And despite Saber's objections, she forcibly performed mana restoration with her, doing so almost every night and refusing to let her go even when she started begging for mercy.
"..."
"Akatsuki, haven't you noticed?"
"?"
Akatsuki looked at the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli in confusion.
"You're becoming more and more like the King of the Moon, Crimson Moon. Aside from the antisocial personality, you're arrogant, fickle, have a certain twisted sense of humor, and cause trouble for no reason. Haven't you noticed this problem?"
"I won't argue if you say I'm arrogant, fickle, or have a twisted sense of humor, but saying I cause trouble for no reason is a problem, isn't it? When have I ever caused trouble for no reason?"
Akatsuki looked at the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli with some dissatisfaction. How could she slander someone—no, slander a True Ancestor—without any proof!
"Heh."
Seeing the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli's somewhat sarcastic gaze, Akatsuki suddenly understood. "You mean the time we kissed? That wasn't my fault!"
Blonde Loli:?
"Kissing? What kissing? Who kissed whom?"
The Blonde Loli looked at Akatsuki and the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli in a daze. The amount of information was too much for her brain to process for a moment, but she instinctively felt something was wrong.
"..."
The Black-haired, straight-haired Loli fell silent.
Akatsuki also fell silent. She suddenly realized—wait, I'm the NTR-er?!
Of course, since she had done it, she didn't plan to avoid the topic. Hesitating and not being clear now would only make the Blonde Loli misunderstand even more, though there wasn't much left to misunderstand.
So Akatsuki sat up from her chair.
"That's right, it's exactly what you're thinking!"
Black-haired, straight-haired Loli:!
Blonde Loli: (○´・д・)ノ!
"Let me ask you, have you kissed her? You haven't yet, right?" Akatsuki's lips curled up as she suddenly adopted a very punchable expression. "So her first kiss wasn't with you, it was with me, Akatsuki!"
Boom!
The Blonde Loli felt something inside her shatter. She looked at Akatsuki and the silent Black-haired, straight-haired Loli in shock, tears flowing down unconsciously.
"Why?!"
"Forced by circumstances."
"Waaaah..." The Blonde Loli bit her lip, trying hard not to cry. She watched the silent Black-haired, straight-haired Loli, her lips quivering, and finally forced herself to say in a positive tone, "As I thought, you still have psychological problems. It's okay, let's go see a psychiatrist."
Hearing the Blonde Loli say this, the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli finally couldn't help but speak up: "I don't need to see a psychiatrist. That kiss..."
The Black-haired, straight-haired Loli thought for a moment, seemingly weighing her words. After a while...
"That kiss was me being unilaterally forced."
"?!"
The Blonde Loli looked at Akatsuki in shock, pointing a trembling finger at her. "I thought that since I was a blonde, I had her in the bag! But I overlooked that you're a blonde too! Dammit! Why was I NTR'ed by another blonde?! What happened to the pure love I wanted!"
"I really can't deal with you."
Akatsuki shrugged helplessly and approached the Blonde Loli. "In that case, let me compensate you a little."
"I don't want it! I want you to erase the history of you kissing her! Make it non-existent! Like it never happened!"
Ignoring the Blonde Loli's noisy protests, Akatsuki held her head with one hand and went straight for it.
Seeing this, the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli lunged forward to separate Akatsuki and the Blonde Loli, only to find herself frozen in place, unable to move!
A piercing pain came from her palm. Her clenched fists made a cracking sound, and blood trickled through the gaps between her fingers. The resentment in her eyes seemed to have turned physical.
"I kissed her, and now I've kissed you. Rounding it off, it's effectively like you two kissed, though the first kiss is still mine."
Pushing away the dazed Blonde Loli, Akatsuki looked at the Black-haired, straight-haired Loli she had frozen in place, her eyes flashing with a warning.
"You really are here to look for trouble!"
"This is just a warning. As for why, you should know. Don't pull any little tricks under my nose, or else I wouldn't mind doing it right in front of you."
After saying that, Akatsuki left without looking back.
