Chapter 237: Sisters.

The power of the Command Spell covered Alvin's body almost instantly.

His body quickly turned translucent, and then a white light rapidly swallowed him whole.

Whoosh...

The cold night wind blew past the white curtains, causing fragments of light to sway gently.

The snow outside had already stopped, but the midnight city of Fuyuki remained silent.

The people had no idea that not long ago the city had nearly faced an unprecedented catastrophe.

From the tree branches nearby came the faint sound of insects crawling, and the weight of the snow soon caused the branches to bend.

Alvin slowly opened his eyes, gently rubbed his forehead and looked ahead.

Standing in front of him was a girl wearing a school uniform, with twin ponytails flowing behind her.

One of the Command Spell marks on the back of her hand had already disappeared, and the crimson pattern had faded slightly.

Looking at her, Alvin couldn't help letting out a helpless sigh.

"Honestly... why would a Master use a Command Spell like this?"

"I was worried you might get caught in the crossfire, so I brought you back."

The moment she saw Alvin, the tension in Tohsaka Rin's body finally relaxed.

She had been worried that after the destruction of the Greater Grail, the Command Spells might no longer work on Alvin.

"And if you stayed there, Miss Sajyou and my teacher wouldn't have stopped fighting anyway."

Tohsaka Rin continued.

The "teacher" she mentioned naturally referred to Morgan le Fay.

Alvin fell silent for a moment.

That was true.

Sajyou Manaka and Morgan had started fighting precisely because of Alvin.

Now that the man they had been fighting for, had been "taken away" right in front of them, even if they were thinking rationally, the first thing they would do would be to find him.

Thinking about it that way, Rin had actually helped quite a lot this time.

"This place seems to be... the Matou residence? So Sakura should be here with you too?"

Alvin looked around at the surroundings.

A traditional Japanese style house filled the space.

The kotatsu quietly radiated warmth, and the room was filled with a gentle, comfortable atmosphere.

Alvin had some impression of this place, because he had previously visited the Matou residence together with Rin.

"How is she now?"

"The Beast that was occupying her body seems to have fallen asleep, but Sakura feels a little guilty and is too embarrassed to face you..."

Thinking about it, Rin's voice became slightly quieter.

Kama could amplify a person's desires, but in the end, if the person themselves didn't harbor those thoughts, even Kama wouldn't be able to control Matou Sakura.

"This time it was thanks to you... if you hadn't called forth Goddess Tiamat, who knows what would have happened to Fuyuki in the end."

By the time Rin finished speaking, there was a hint of relief in her tone.

"Even Kama probably never imagined that Mother's true body was actually inside Imaginary Number Space."

Alvin smiled slightly.

"It's a pity the Greater Grail was still destroyed."

Mentioning that matter made Alvin feel somewhat conflicted.

In just ten short years, the Greater Grail of Fuyuki had been destroyed, reconstructed, and then destroyed again.

It had endured far too much.

Alvin soon turned his head toward the direction of the Tohsaka residence outside the window.

From that direction, he could no longer sense even the slightest fluctuation of magical energy.

"Looks like Manaka and Sister Morgan really did stop fighting..."

Alvin let out a quiet sigh of relief, his gaze returning to Rin, only to find her staring directly at him, making him feel a bit confused.

"What's wrong, Rin?"

"Don't you feel reluctant, Alvin?"

Tohsaka Rin suddenly asked.

"The Greater Grail has been destroyed, which means the Servants summoned through it will soon disappear.

Maybe we won't have the chance to meet again after this..."

Alvin was stunned for a moment.

Then he smiled gently and took one of her hands.

Because of the battle earlier tonight, Rin's clothes were slightly disheveled.

One of her thigh high stockings had been torn, revealing the pale, smooth skin beneath the black fabric.

Under the dim yellow light, the girl's youthful figure looked especially captivating.

Even though she wore an expression of dissatisfaction at the moment, hidden deep in her eyes was a complicated feeling of reluctance.

Although she lacked the all embracing gentleness of her younger sister Sakura, yet possessed the purity and liveliness unique to a young girl.

Feeling the warmth of Alvin's hand, Rin instinctively tried to pull her hand away, but in the end she stopped herself.

The boy's intense gaze quickly caused a blush to appear on her face.

Her eyes trembled slightly as she awkwardly looked away.

"Stop messing around. I'm talking about something serious..."

Although the usually tsundere Rin was amusing, she was even more charming when she was shy.

Alvin didn't respond.

Instead, he took out a hard black dragon scale from his chest and placed it into her palm.

Tohsaka Rin instinctively looked up, staring at him in surprise.

"What is this...?"

"A scale from a white dragon. It's also my most important Mystic Code."

Seeing this, the girl finally came back to her senses and immediately shook her head.

"I can't take something like this—"

"Take it. I hope it can stay with you forever."

Alvin revealed a gentle smile.

"I believe we will definitely meet again in the future."

Rin Tohsaka stared at him blankly, moisture rippling in her beautiful eyes.

Alvin lowered his head and gently kissed the girl's cherry-like lips, while his other hand slowly moved downward along her slender waist.

By the time, she felt his hot palm groping her soft buttocks, Rin Tohsaka finally snapped back to her senses and stammered, speaking, "W-wait a moment. Sakura is still waiting for you next door, I... mm~"

As she spoke, her voice gradually weakened, until in the end it seemed as if she had given up resisting, silently accepting the boy's mischief.

...

After soothing Rin Tohsaka to sleep, Alvin quietly left the room, he walked along the corridor to the room next door, finding the pure and gentle Sakura Matou inside.

She seemed to have already guessed that Alvin would come.

When she saw him, she softly called out, "Senpai... you're here."

"You knew I would come find you?"

Alvin asked with some surprise.

Sakura Matou gently nodded, her voice soft and delicate. "I could roughly guess... I just didn't expect to wait this long."

"Senpai really likes Onee-sama."

When she said the last sentence, a sincere faint smile appeared on her face.

Alvin: "..."

He had always thought this girl would be a little slow to react... but now it seemed Sakura Matou was not as simple as she appeared on the surface.

Perhaps she even knew what had just happened in the next room.

However, before he could even feel such complicated thoughts, the girl slightly bowed in apology. "I'm sorry... This time I really caused everyone a lot of trouble. If it weren't for Senpai,

I think the consequences by now would already be irreversible."

This time, if Alvin hadn't just happened to summon the goddess Tiamat, and Kama hadn't essentially doomed herself...

Fuyuki might already have become the nest of the Beast of Desire.

Alvin gently shook his head. "In this matter you're also just a victim. And in the end, a disaster didn't happen, right?"

However, hearing her words, Sakura Matou hesitated.

She knew neither her sister nor Senpai blamed her, but even so, the girl still felt a sense of guilt in her heart.

It wasn't only because of Kama... there was something else that also bothered her deeply.

Noticing Sakura Matou secretly observing him, Alvin turned his gaze toward the elegant girl in front of him.

"Sakura, do you still have some other worries?"

"For example... wanting to see your father?"

"N-no, it's not that. It has nothing to do with that."

Sakura Matou's face instantly turned red as she hurriedly waved her hands in denial.

Ever since Tokiomi Tohsaka left Fuyuki for the Clock Tower nearly ten years ago, almost a decade had passed.

During those ten years, Rin Tohsaka had missed him greatly.

But Sakura Matou... perhaps because she grew up in the Matou household, the feelings she held toward that father were very complicated.

It wasn't exactly longing.

The reason for her worry wasn't Tokiomi Tohsaka.

"Then what is it?"

Seeing that it wasn't what he thought, Alvin couldn't help asking.

Sakura Matou lowered her head slightly.

Her small hands unconsciously tightened the hem of her skirt as she whispered, "Senpai... you're about to leave soon, aren't you?"

'Why does that sound like I'm about to die?'... Alvin showed a helpless expression.

"After the Greater Grail is destroyed, Servants will disappear afterward as well. But that doesn't mean death. Is that what you're worried about?"

As he spoke, he reached out and gently stroked the girl's soft hair.

"If you really miss me someday, just take this out and look at it."

He took out a dragon scale from his clothes and placed it in the girl's palm.

Sakura Matou froze for a moment and instinctively looked up.

"This is...?"

"A white dragon scale. You could also call it my Mystic Code. It will protect you at critical moments... Just think of it as the gift I'm leaving you before I go."

"And you don't need to be sad because of it. I believe we will definitely meet again someday."

Alvin continued.

"A Mystic Code...?"

Sakura Matou was startled.

"No, I can't accept this! This must be something very important to Senpai!"

"No matter how important something is, if it can't display its value, then it has no meaning."

Alvin took the opportunity to hold Sakura Matou's hand and smiled.

"Besides, do you really think that in my eyes you are less important than a Mystic Code, Sakura?"

Now that it was all over...he naturally wouldn't hide his feelings.

After all, who wouldn't like such a beautiful, gentle, well-endowed girl, who only had her eyes for you.

Although somewhat Yandere at times, he didn't mind.

Sakura Matou froze for a moment before a blush quickly appeared on her face as she softly murmured, "Senpai..."

She knew about Alvin's feelings toward her sister.

After all, not long ago she had personally witnessed Alvin and her sister kissing passionately on the street.

But now... he was saying something almost like a confession to her as well.

"Even without the power of the Beast of Desire... Senpai is quite the playboy."

Looking at the dragon scale in her hand, Sakura Matou couldn't help softly teasing.

Alvin opened his mouth, about to speak.

But at that moment, Sakura Matou raised her head again to look at the boy.

For a brief instant, her gaze seemed to soften, as she stepped half a step forward and slowly leaned close to Alvin's ear, speaking in an extremely seductive and gentle voice.

"But if it's together with Onee-sama..."

"That's okay, you know?"
