Meanwhile, at the Fallen Angels' branch in Kuoh Town.

Cockatrice sat with his legs crossed, exuding an air of arrogance as if he were the second most powerful being in the world, just below God himself.

Below him, a male Fallen Angel named Dohnaseik was giving a report.

"So, you're saying that before this, more than half of the Fallen Angels in Kuoh Town were following the orders of a demon?"

"Yes, that's correct. It seems that for the sake of his Sacred Gear research, Azazel had the Fallen Angels act as dogs for the demons."

Cockatrice, a fundamentalist who believed in the supremacy of the Fallen Angels and a warmonger at heart, couldn't help but sneer.

"Azazel, you've really outdone yourself this time. Using Fallen Angels as tools for demons... How far have we fallen?"

In the original storyline, Cockatrice was the one who supported the "Holy Sword Project" led by Valper Galilei, aiming to merge the seven Holy Swords into one.

Of course, Cockatrice himself had no real interest in the Holy Swords. His goal was to lure high-ranking angels into the demon territory, creating a situation where a high-ranking angel would be killed by a Fallen Angel, and the Holy Swords would be stolen.

Such an act, he believed, would undoubtedly reignite the war between the three great factions—Angels, Fallen Angels, and Demons.

After a moment of contemplation, Cockatrice decided to make his move.

"Dohnaseik, I want you to find the demon who was in contact with Azazel."

Dohnaseik wiped a bead of sweat from his forehead.

"Lord Cockatrice, the Fallen Angel responsible for the contact was Mittelt. After hearing that you were gathering the Fallen Angels, she disappeared without a trace."

"Along with her, two other Fallen Angels—Raynare and Kalawarna—have also vanished. Raynare was previously the highest-ranking Fallen Angel in this area."

"Deserters, huh?" Cockatrice muttered.

"Dohnaseik, you said the demon was from Kuoh Town, correct?"

"As we all know, Kuoh Town is under the jurisdiction of high-ranking demons. Stray demons are not allowed to roam freely in the area."

"This means that the demon who made the deal with Azazel is either a high-ranking demon or a servant of one."

"If I can take control of Kuoh Academy, I believe everything will become clear!"

Cockatrice smirked.

Coincidentally, the final testing ground for Valper's Holy Sword Project was also in Kuoh Town. He could kill two birds with one stone.

Meanwhile, at Akira's home.

Irina was saying her goodbyes to Akira.

"Akira! We're off to complete the Holy Sword mission. Take care of yourself!"

"More than me, it's you who needs to be careful," Akira said with a sigh.

"I've already told you, you two stand no chance against a Ten-Winged Fallen Angel. The mission to retrieve the Holy Swords is impossible for you."

"Sister Griselda gave you this mission with the intention of having you become my servants. That way, at least you'll survive."

"Akira Leviathan! Don't slander Sister Griselda! She would never do such a thing!" Xenovia snapped, her voice cold.

In her heart, Griselda was like a saint, almost a mother figure. She couldn't allow Akira to tarnish her image.

"Alright, alright. Please forgive Xenovia, Akira. She's just an idiot," Irina said, trying to smooth things over.

"We'll contact Sister Griselda first. If what you said is true... Akira, you have to save a 'Knight' piece for me! I've always wanted to be your Knight!"

Thanks to Akira's influence, Irina's faith wasn't as strong as in the original timeline. She could even say something as outrageous as wanting to become a demon's Knight.

"Irina, if you encounter any danger, remember to use the piece I gave you to contact me," Akira reminded her.

"Got it! Akira, we're off now!"

Irina clutched the white "Pawn" piece in her hand, feeling reassured by Akira's promise.

After talking with Akira, Irina realized that he was no longer the same person she knew from childhood.

Now, Akira not only possessed Evil Pieces but also had the strength of a high-class demon, if not stronger. He was more than capable of protecting her.

After seeing Irina off, Akira let out a sigh.

"That Griselda... Is she trying to test me or something?"

"But then again, this works out for me. If she's going to send them my way, I might as well take them all."

"Men can stay, but the more beautiful girls, the better."

After handling that matter, Akira returned to the Fate world.

As soon as he arrived, a system notification chimed in his mind.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations, host, for completing a villain quest!]

[Quest Level: Purple]

[Quest: A Good Servant Should Have Multiple Contractors]

[Requirement: Find more contractors to supply you with mana, allowing you to unleash your full power.]

[Reward: Magician's Compendium]

[Magician's Compendium: Contains most of the basic knowledge of magecraft in the Type-Moon world. While not advanced, it is extremely comprehensive.]

As the knowledge flooded his mind, Akira's understanding of the Type-Moon world deepened.

"The quest is complete, which means Illya's body has been fully restored, and she's even taken the initiative to form a contract with me."

Suddenly, two fragrant breezes swept into his arms as two adorable lolis pounced on him.

"Welcome back, Akira Daddy!"

"Daddy! Sakura missed you!"

Akira was momentarily stunned. Illya, who had previously refused to call him "Daddy," was now being so proactive?

After a few seconds of confusion, he noticed the competitive glares the two girls were shooting at each other even while in his arms.

Ah, so that's how it is.

Patting their heads, Akira smiled.

"Illya, Sakura, I'm happy to be your daddy."

"But a family isn't complete with just a daddy, right?"

"How about I find you two a mommy?"

"Daddy! I don't want any other mommy! I just want my original mommy!" Sakura pouted immediately.

"Illya too! Illya only has one mommy!" Illya declared, not wanting to be outdone.

"Alright, alright."

"Illya, there's an opportunity tonight. How about we go convince your mommy together?"

"Yay! Illya wants to go! Illya wants to go!"

Illya jumped up and down excitedly.

Take that, Sakura! This is my victory!

"Daddy! Sakura wants a mommy too!"

Sakura hugged Akira tightly, her eyes brimming with tears.

"Of course, Daddy won't play favorites. You'll both get what you want. But we have to take things one step at a time, okay?"

"And we'll need to be careful about how we convince your mommy. We can't rush things."

A few hours later, at the Tohsaka residence.

Due to the Holy Grail War, Tokiomi Tohsaka had sent his wife and daughter to the Tohsaka family's countryside estate.

This way, even if he died in the Holy Grail War, the Tohsaka bloodline and magecraft would continue.

Seeing her mother again, Sakura smiled brightly.

Tonight was supposed to be Illya's turn, but this afternoon, Akira had brought her to see her mom first! This meant that she held a higher place in Akira's heart than Illya!

Across from Akira sat a beautiful, serene woman sipping tea nervously.

Her name was Aoi Tohsaka, the wife of Tokiomi Tohsaka and the mother of Rin and Sakura.

In the original timeline, she had died during the Fourth Holy Grail War.

Aoi had long, smooth emerald-green hair, delicate features, and fair, alluring skin.

Her slender shoulders were covered by a beige shawl, and she wore green sandals that revealed her delicate, polished toes.

If Irisviel represented the "active" type of mother, Aoi was the epitome of a traditional, elegant beauty.

Such a refined and beautiful woman could only be handled by someone like Akira, who had seen it all and possessed the bloodline of a high-ranking succubus.

After talking with Sakura for a long time, Aoi finally gathered the courage to speak.

"Mr. Akira, thank you for allowing me to see Sakura again. I had no idea the Matou family was such a despicable place."

Aoi was overjoyed that Sakura had escaped that hellish family.

"Mom, can I ask you something?" Sakura looked at Aoi with hopeful eyes.

"Of course, Sakura. I'll answer anything I can."

"Then... can you marry Akira Daddy and continue to take care of me?"

Sakura's eyes were filled with hope.

But Aoi's expression froze.

"This... Sakura, this isn't something I can decide."

"The Tohsaka magecraft can only be passed down to one heir. Your father... he sent you away because he didn't want you and Rin to grow apart."

As a traditional Japanese wife, Aoi couldn't go against her husband's wishes.

Sakura's eyes filled with tears as she stepped back into Akira's arms.

"Mom... you don't want me either, do you?"

"Sakura, that's not true! I want you to come back, but your father..."

"Excuses! All excuses!"

"Daddy! Let's go back! If Mom doesn't want me, I don't want her either!"

Sakura grabbed Akira's hand, wanting to leave this heartbreaking place.

From today on, she only had Akira! No more Tohsaka Daddy or Tohsaka Mommy!

After all... she wasn't a Tohsaka anymore, right?

"Ms. Aoi, I'll comfort Sakura for a moment. I'll be right back."

With that, Akira followed Sakura outside.

Sakura, tears streaming down her face, walked away without looking back.

"Sakura, deep down, you still want your mommy, don't you?" Akira asked gently, patting her head.

"But what's the point? Mommy doesn't want me! Neither Mommy nor Daddy wants me! They only want Big Sister Rin!"

As she said this, Sakura's voice was filled with bitterness.

Akira smiled and looked back at the Tohsaka residence.

"Sakura, I always keep my promises."

"Wait here for a moment. I'll go back and make some preparations."

"I guarantee that within seven days, your mommy will come to you."

"Until then, trust me, okay?"

"Okay! I believe in you, Akira!"

Sakura bit her lip and nodded.

Akira was so much better than the parents who had abandoned her!

A few minutes later, Akira returned to the Tohsaka residence.

Seeing him return, Aoi quickly poured him a cup of tea.

No matter what, Akira was the one who had saved Sakura from her suffering.

This debt of gratitude was too great.

Aoi couldn't imagine how heartbroken she would have been if she had learned about Sakura's fate in the Matou family without Akira's intervention.

"Ms. Aoi, Sakura's words earlier were just a child's whimsy. But I do have a solution that could make everyone happy."

"What solution?" Aoi asked curiously.

"Why don't you just marry me?"

"My family doesn't have the rule of passing down magecraft to only one heir. If you marry me, both Sakura and Rin can live happily together. I'll raise them to be the finest magicians."

Akira's words hung in the air as Aoi stared at him in shock.
