031 shy, can I return the goods?(3/6) (Ch 031)

The silver-haired beauty who claimed to be Merlin’s sister, Lady Avalon, grabbed the boy’s arm and shook him in panic.

“I am Merlin’s sister! I also come from Paradise and I am a talented magician who is no less talented than my brother! Please be more honest and show more happiness, Master!”

Shirou twitched his lips: “No… Even if you say so, Merlin is of course very powerful, but his sister…

Just a bystander who has nothing to do with Camelot, right?”

Ms. Avalon bit her lip in grievance and wiped the tears from her eyes: “Guwuwuwu… I can’t refute it…”

“Well, since it’s already been summoned, there’s nothing we can do about it. We can’t return it.”

Shirou stood up and stretched, “Let’s get some rest today and discuss countermeasures tomorrow, shall we? I’ll go prepare a guest room for you.”

However, the female magician still sat there and did not stand up: “Returns are possible.”

Shirou was immediately overjoyed: There is such a good thing! ?

The silver-haired beauty changed her frivolous attitude and said seriously, “I hope Master can promise me a few things.

If you cannot accept my terms and make a promise with me, I will return to the Throne of Heroes right now.”

“?”

Shirou looked back at Ms. Avalon in surprise.

However, the silver-haired beauty exuded a completely different aura from the moment before, as if she was asserting that she was not joking with the Master.

Shirou returned to his seat in silence.

“Go ahead.”

“First, I will neither show up nor fight in this Holy Grail War.”

“What does this mean?”

“Master, you should have heard about the transformation into a spirit?”

Shirou nodded and Ms. Avalon continued.

“That is to say, I will remain in a spiritual state throughout the ceremony, will not appear in front of anyone other than the Master, and will not fight with enemy Servants.

Of course, I won’t do nothing. I will assist from the side and do my best to fulfill my role as a supporter… without exposing my identity.”

Shirou half opened his mouth in surprise, “Are you asking me to fight the enemy’s servants?”

Even though he was a qualified magus who could summon servants, Shirou Amamiya’s body was still that of a child.

What on earth was Merlin’s sister thinking, letting an 8-year-old child go to the front line to fight against heroes from myths and legends?

“Is it because of your class ability?” Shirou asked.

“Yes, I am better at covert support work… but that is not the main reason.”

The silver-haired beauty narrowed one eye cunningly and said with a seductive expression:

“Because, Master, you are obviously more suitable for the front battlefield than the rear support.”

Shirou: “…………”

“Please rest assured, I will do my best to protect the Master and do everything I can.”

Shirou looked her straight in the eye and asked, “Can I trust you? “

Ms. Avalon nodded and said, “Please trust me.”

Shirou said, “I understand. Let’s settle it.”

Ms. Avalon smiled as beautifully as a flower: “Okay, let’s move on to the second point.”

Shirou frowned, “Anything else?”

The female magician said with a serious expression: “Rather, this is the key point. I ask the Master to promise me – firmly, not to reveal any information about me to the outside world.

Real name, rank, ability, origin, and relationship with her brother…

All this information must not be disclosed to anyone, can you do it?”

“If you can’t do that, you will return to the Throne of Heroes, right?”

Ms. Avalon was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a firm expression.

“I understand. I promise.”

Shirou readily accepted it. Compared to the previous one, the second condition was not that harsh.

Or rather, even if she didn’t ask, Shirou wasn’t going to mention it.

All eyes on me! I have an announcement! I, Shirou Amamiya, have summoned a roadside servant!

——I don’t want this situation.

Ms. Avalon clapped her hands happily: “Great, I knew you would agree~

Then, for the next period of time, please give me your guidance, my lovely little Master~”

Shirou: “You’re done.”

Ms. Avalon: “Well, that’s all.”

Shirou: “Now that you’ve finished speaking, it’s my turn to speak.”

Ms. Avalon: “Huh?”

The red-haired boy said as a matter of course: “I can’t let you be the only one to make the conditions.”

Ms. Avalon had a strange expression on her face: “…………Please go ahead.”

Shirou said, “While my elder sister is in spirit form, no matter what I do, please do not interfere.

Of course, if you want to point fingers or criticize me, feel free to do so, but I will thoroughly follow my policy of ignoring you and do what I want to do.”

“……Well.”

Ms. Avalon half-opened her pink lips, and she obviously didn’t expect Shirou to say such a thing.

“Why, you can’t accept it?” Shirou asked.

The female magician, who had been calm and composed since her arrival, was thrown into disarray.

“No, not really… But my value as a Servant lies in providing advice and counsel to the Master…”

“When you are in physical form like now, you are always welcome to communicate, but during the period of spiritual form, I will refuse to accept any advice from my elder sister.”

Ms. Avalon asked in astonishment: “If I don’t agree…”

Shirou said in a nonchalant tone: “Then I’ll have no choice but to ask you to return to the Throne of Heroes. Now, set off immediately.”

“Hmm.”

Ms. Avalon’s beautiful face suddenly turned pale.

After a few seconds, she bit her lips and slowly lowered her head.

“…I promise you, Master.”

Shirou shook her hand with satisfaction after hearing this: “Please give me your guidance in the future, Sister Avalon.”

Thus, Shirou concluded a verbal agreement with the silver-haired beauty who called herself Lady Avalon.

Probably the most twisted master-servant relationship in history was born.

…

…

The next morning.

Shirou had a good sleep.

This was probably the most comfortable night of sleep he had since he started to get used to the Japanese way of living.

Training familiars, setting up barriers, and performing advent rituals, Shirou had been running low on magic power recently, but after last night’s sleep he had replenished it all.

“Have I improved my ability as a magician? Okay~ I’ll have to work harder from today!”

Shirou walked into the living room with brisk steps.

“Ah, Master, good morning. Did you sleep well last night?”

I heard a clear, sweet, heavenly female voice——

Ms. Avalon sat at the dining table and looked over with a smile.

Shirou: “Where’s the spirit transformation you promised?”

At this time, another female voice came from behind: “Haa, so sleepy… Good morning, Shirou.”

Shirou’s eyes widened immediately: Oh no! Sister Fuji is here, she will be seen by Sister Fuji!

Without having time to think, the boy pounced on Ms. Avalon and pinned her under him.

“Hurry up and transform into a spirit!”

“…Shirou, what are you doing there?”

Fujimura Taiga blinked and asked blankly, “Why are you rolling around in a place where no one is around?”

“Huh?”

Shirou looked at the silver-haired beauty beneath him in confusion.

Even though Ms. Avalon didn’t materialize, Fuji-nee seemed to be completely unable to see her.

“Hoo, hoo, hoo, Master is really hot-blooded. Are you going to attack someone so early in the morning?”

Ms. Avalon covered her mouth and laughed.

“?”

Shirou then noticed that his hands were sinking into a pair of plump and soft “buds”…
