After the meeting, the night quickly came.
On the rooftop of the villa, Haru was strumming his guitar boredly, while looking at the night sky since Raikou was out to check out the surrounding area.
Haru was about to sing a song, but a mechanical spider-like arm stretched out from under the edge of the rooftop. He saw mechanical limbs gripping part of the rooftop before a young girl entered his vision.
"Kasugano-kun, you're here."
Fiore smiled, looking at Haru, then her eyes stared at the guitar on his hands and felt a bit curious about it.
Haru nodded and greeted Fiore back. "Fiore." He saw four mechanical spider-like limbs extended behind her, stabilizing and supporting her body. He knew that her legs weren't good and she couldn't walk with them, so she could only use those mechanical spider-like limbs behind her back to move around when she didn't use her wheelchair.
"Is this a so-called "Bronze-Link Manipulator"?"
Haru knew that created those four mechanical-like limbs to replace her disabled legs.
The four giant magic-powered spider-like limbs that mounted behind her back all forged with special alloys which made it easier for her to circulate her Magic Power. Each of the four giant magic-powered spider-like limbs was capable of thinking on its own, even though it was limited to the level of animal brains.
Fiore could also control them and automatically protect her when the situation called her.
Normally, Fiore adjusted the four giant magic-powered spider-like limbs in automatic mode, which could reduce the consumption of the Magic Power.
If Fiore controlled it herself, then the consumption of the Magic Power would be greater.
However, even if it was operated on automatic mode, it could only remember a simple action since its brain was only limited to an animal's brain, so it couldn't do something complicated.
Compared to the attack, its defense was stronger since each of the magic-powered spider-like limbs owned an animal's brain level and the reflex of the animal was obviously better than a human.
So rather than an attack, Fiore mostly used her four giant magic-powered spider-like limbs as her means of defense. It also fit her personality since she didn't like to fight nor did she dare to kill someone since her heart was very kind and warm.
It was also the reason why Fiore wasn't suitable to become a Magus.
Still, with those four giant magic-powered spider-like limbs, a third-rate Magus could easily defeat a first-class Magus.
It was also the reason why Fiore, who could develop those four giant magic-powered spider-like limbs, had surpassed the first-class instructors of the Clock Tower in her field.
"I guess this is the reason why Darnic has chosen you as a patriach. You're very talented and your talent is even better than Darnic."
When Haru said those words, Fiore showed a wry smile on her face.
"It isn't something incredible since it can be created by a human hand, as long as someone learns, then it is possible to create something similar."
Fiore then operated on four giant magic-powered spider-like limbs behind her back and sat beside Haru. Then the four giant magic-powered spider-like limbs began to gather together, moving in precision, and formed into a backpack, but an accident happened, her butts slipped and she slid down the rooftop.
"Eh?"
The four giant magic-powered spider-like limbs had turned into a backpack and it was too late for Fiore to take it out again, but then a strong arm hugged her waist and pulled her before she fell from the rooftop.
"Are you alright?"
Fiore sighed in relief, and wanted to say "thank you", but she realized that her position wasn't right since at this moment her waist was hugged and she sat between his legs.
"Kas.. Kasugano-kun..."
Fiore blushed and lowered her head since it was her first time to be this close with someone of the opposite gender.
"Just stay here, it'll be terrible if you fall down again."
"Uh..."
Fiore was so nervous and wasn't sure what to say, but when she rested on his chest, there was a sense of security and she felt quite comfortable at that moment. She then looked at his arm that hugged her waist and touched it.
"How can your body be so powerful, Kasugano-kun?"
"You're curious?"
Fiore felt her body tremble when she felt hot hair behind her ear. "Ka.. Kasugano-kun!"
"What's wrong?"
"No.. Nothing!"
Fiore took a deep breath and tried to calm herself. "Compared to your body, my Magecraft is nothing, Kasugano-kun." She looked toward the sky and said, "I am sure that even Ojii-sama is curious about your body."
"Is it only Darnic?" Haru smiled and said, "I am sure that there should be a lot of people in Yggdmillennia clan who are curious about my body, right? If I am not strong enough, they might come and cut part of my body to part of their research."
Fiore let out a sigh since she couldn't deny Haru's words. She knew very well how a Magus's personality very well since she was also a Magus.
"With your body alone, you can even defeat Caster's Noble Phantasm easily. Your body has already reached the level of servant or you might have even surpassed it. As long as they are a Magus, it is impossible to not take an interest."
Even though Fiore said those words, she didn't dare to look at him since she was shy.
"Including you?"
"What?!"
"If it is you, I don't mind showing you my body..."
"Ka.. Kasugano-kun! Don't... Don't tease me!"
Fiore realized that Haru was teasing her since she could hear his chuckle.
"I am sorry, alright?"
When Fiore felt that her head was patted, somehow, she closed her eyes and felt very comfortable, but then, she quickly realized something and said, "Ka.. Kasugano-kun, this... this isn't appropriate..." She might only remember that at this moment both of them weren't a couple, nor they had a relationship.
If they something really happened between the two, Fiore would feel a bit sorry for her future husband, unless... unless... that future husband was...
"Ka.. Kasugano-kun."
"Haru."
"Hmm?"
"Call me Haru."
Fiore raised her head and looked toward up with an upturn eyes. "Haru?"
"Yes?"
Fiore smiled and shook her head. She felt that this was enough for her.
"You know, even Caules showed an interest in your body and eager to get you, but when he knew that he didn't have a chance, he simply gave up."
"Your little brother is smart." Haru smiled and said, "It seems even if Darnic is dead, as long as your little brother is there the Yggdmillennia will be alright."
"...Yes." Fiore's voice was a bit depressed and murmured. "My little brother is very capable, he's so capable that I was shocked." When she thought what had happened these days, when she handled the affairs of the Yggdmillennia can as the patriach, she fully understood her little brother's capability.
"To be honest, I didn't realize that Caules to have such a talent before, since before, I have only enjoyed his support and assistance that he had brought to me as something granted. Even if I'm not there, Caules can still handle it. He really gives me a surprise." Fiore lay on Haru's chest and felt the lonely feeling on her heart was a bit healed at this moment. "He really has grown up." She wasn't sure, but she wanted him to hug her tighter at that moment, however, she held it since she knew that it was a bit wrong to ask something like that to someone who wasn't even her lover, fiance, boyfriend, or a husband.
Although her words were a bit down, Haru could tell that Fiore really cared about her little brother. He rested his chin on the top of her head and could feel the softness of her bushy brown hair.
'She smells good.'
Haru also hugged Fiore tighter since he felt that she needed this at that moment.
"Ha... Haru..."
Fiore also smelled his smell which somehow made her relax all of her tense nerves since what had happened in the past few days were too much for her.
Haru really wanted to bully Fiore again, but he knew that it wasn't the time.
"You know... as a Magus, you shouldn't put your emotions too much. If you continue like this, you'll collapse yourself."
"...I know." Fiore showed a bitter smile and said, "Perhaps, I am not suitable as a Magus."
Looking at the exhaustion and sadness that was carried on her eyes, Haru understood that there were many things that she had experienced.
As the patriach of the Yggdmillennia clan, Fiore needed to make some cruel decisions.
For example, she needed to sacrifice someone in the family, she needed to kill an innocent person, she needed to use all means to gather all the materials for magic research, she also needed to use a cruel methods to questioning the family member that had a mistake, and there was a lot more.
However, not only Magus, but normal people also often made such ruthless decisions.
Haru was the same after all, in his original world or his quest, to make his business prosperous and to complete his quest, he sometimes needed to make a cruel decision.
Of course, such a job wasn't suitable for those who were gentle such as Fiore.
Fiore couldn't handle all of that and if she continued sooner or later, she would collapse and even die.
However, Fiore seemed to be aware of her problem.
"So you have decided to give up on the Holy Grail?" Haru asked.
Fiore turned and smiled lightly. "Yes."
"..."
Haru and Fiore stared at each other, smiled, then looked toward the night sky.
"The moon is beautiful tonight."
"Yes, it is beautiful."
Fiore made her position comfortable and let his arms, hugging her body, and all she wanted at this moment was the time to stop so she could enjoy this moment forever.
