"Ugh..."
Her mana was restricted. Although Akatsuki had dragged her into mana replenishment for the whole night, as a member of the Saber class, she still felt a lack of mana. However, if she were to take the initiative and tell Akatsuki about her mana deficiency, she would likely be dragged into mana replenishment again, so she could only think of other ways.
But the lack of mana wasn't the real trouble. After all, the Holy Grail War was now practically over. However, Saber wasn't a true Heroic Spirit; she still possessed a physical body.
She hadn't eaten anything since yesterday and had been forced through mana replenishment by Akatsuki all night, consuming a lot of physical strength. In short, she was hungry.
However, her pride as a knight made it impossible for Saber to make a request to the lewd heretic sleeping soundly beside her. As the hunger in her stomach grew stronger, her body began to protest even though her will refused.
Grumble~
As her stomach protested, Saber's face instantly turned red.
"Saber, are you hungry?"
Saber looked up and found that Akatsuki had opened her eyes at some point, looking at her with a playful gaze—the same gaze she had been using just an hour ago.
"You lewd heretic..."
"Still calling me a heretic?"
"Ahhh!" Seeing Akatsuki reaching for the phone on the nightstand, Saber immediately grabbed Akatsuki's hand and hugged it to her chest with all her might. "I know, but... uuu... I really can't bring myself to say it..."
My king of knights can't be this cute!
Seeing Saber looking like an innocent young girl, Akatsuki even forgot to tease her about the way she was tightly hugging her arm.
"Alright, alright, I'll stop teasing you."
She gently patted Saber's back with her other hand. "If you don't let go of my hand, I won't be able to make breakfast for you."
Hearing this, Saber obediently let go of Akatsuki's hand and then quickly wrapped her body in the quilt, burying her head completely as if she didn't dare look at Akatsuki's face.
It's over! My king of knights can't be this cute!
Forcing down the urge to pounce and perform mana replenishment again, Akatsuki climbed out of bed and stretched lazily, feigning ease. "Saber, if there's nothing specific you want to eat, I'll just wing it."
Seeing that Saber remained silent under the quilt, Akatsuki smiled helplessly. Looking at the maid outfit she had given Saber last night, it was now shredded beyond recognition, showing just how intense the battle had been.
Using Marble Phantasm, Akatsuki recreated the casual clothes from FSN for Saber, placed them on the bed, and walked straight to the kitchen.
Although it was a hotel, the room's facilities were fully equipped. Akatsuki and Saber had even engaged in a fierce battle in the kitchen the previous night.
A moment later.
A sleepy-eyed Matou Sakura and a fully dressed Saber were washing up together at the sink.
Although Matou Sakura didn't know what happened last night, she wasn't surprised by Saber's presence. After all, Akatsuki had already settled everything while talking with the others.
Matou Sakura would be raised by Akatsuki, and Saber was handed over to Akatsuki by Kiritsugu Emiya as a Familiar. Although Irisviel somewhat disagreed, Saber ended up staying in the end.
"Sakura."
Matou Sakura turned her head and saw Saber pointing at the corner of her mouth. She then realized there was some toothpaste foam left on her face. Not wanting to cause trouble for Akatsuki, Matou Sakura quickly reached for a towel.
"Wait."
Saber took the towel, wiped Matou Sakura clean, and then put the towel back in its place.
At the dining table, Saber's gaze was completely drawn to the lavish breakfast, but she didn't dare lower her guard. She hadn't forgotten that last night, Akatsuki had forced her to drink many lewd potions on the grounds that the bodies of a True Ancestor and a Servant were very sturdy and wouldn't break easily.
As a result, she had been completely unable to control her actions afterward, indulging herself incessantly.
This is bad, really bad! How can my king of knights be this cute!
Sakura is so cute too!
Seeing the look on Saber's face—longing for food but looking troubled because she was wary of her—and Matou Sakura quietly waiting beside her, Akatsuki quickly wiped away a non-existent nosebleed.
"Don't worry, I wouldn't go as far as drugging you in front of Sakura."
"..."
Saber looked at Akatsuki skeptically, while Matou Sakura looked at both of them with a dazed expression, as if she didn't understand what they were saying.
To be honest, she really didn't understand.
After all, she had slept very soundly last night.
Akatsuki shrugged helplessly and began to enjoy breakfast. Seeing everyone start eating, Matou Sakura followed suit.
"By the way, today the Three Founding Families who started the Fuyuki City Holy Grail War are going to gather at the Great Underground Cavern of Mount Enzou to discuss matters regarding the dismantling of the Holy Grail War. Saber, do you want to go?"
"Me?"
Hearing Akatsuki's words, Saber asked in confusion, "Hasn't the head of the Matou Family been killed by you? And formally, the head of the Einzbern Family should be the Great-grandfather of the Einzbern Family, right? He's not in Fuyuki City either."
"It's not a big deal. Sakura can represent the Matou Family, Tohsaka Tokiomi can represent the Tohsaka Family, and Irisviel can represent the Einzbern Family. As for the Einzbern Family far away overseas..."
Akatsuki thought for a moment and said jokingly, "Once everything is over, I'll ask that old man who's over two hundred years old if he's willing to come to Fuyuki City to take care of his grandchildren. If he's not, I'll just turn off his main power switch. If he is, I can help him make some adjustments."
"The granddaughter should be Illyasviel von Einzbern, right? Who is the grandson?"
"He's a high-jump succubus who aims to be a hero of justice."
Saber:????
Matou Sakura:????
The pleasant breakfast time soon ended. Although Saber still wanted more, she decided to temporarily set aside her obsession with breakfast when faced with Akatsuki's words: "I'll let you eat your fill once this is over."
"You always bring me surprises."
The serious-looking old man was now looking at Akatsuki with helplessness. Akatsuki wasn't surprised by his arrival either. The Second Magus—Kischur Zelretch Schweinorg, the Marshal of Sorcery, the one who killed Crimson Moon.
"Are you here to witness the dismantling of the Holy Grail War?"
"Yes, I witnessed Nagato and the others back then too. Now that it's being dismantled, it wouldn't be right if I didn't come to witness it."
