After waving their hands as their daughter leaving to enjoy her rare holiday, both of her parents' face suddenly turned serious as they go back inside their house. It's not like something that might threat or harm their beloved and only daughter, but what they do is just doing their best for Eleonora, all of it will be for her sake.

Theodore then spoke.

"Yuuka, we must drag that flower mage. The key to unlock the rights of Arthuria Pendragon's treasures, is only can be done by him. Simply unlock magic isn't able to fully opened it."

His wife nods her head and responded with serious.

"Yes, dear. Then we have no choice but to do Servant Summoning with his catalyst to make sure the success rate increased. Don't worry, I already have it and place that in the safe place, only you and me who knew that place and its code."

"That's reassuring. Although he might be summoned as Servant, as Heroic Spirit, he still capable to perform the ritual to summon the key and to unlock it. What a pain in the ass. After thousand years, Pendragon family finally have the true successor of Arthuria Pendragon."

As they already arrived at the place that they mentioned, they then can see a wall that has the same color and pattern like in their house, but it suddenly changed color and pattern when Theo's right hand placed onto it. The walls reveal a door, gold-like door with white lining across over it.

Nodding their heads, both parents then open the door as they get inside and reveals many things in there. It's full of artifact, fossil, etc. But their objective right now is to take something, a certain thing that would bring someone they really want to right now. Someone's important although they're not that close as Theo pissed off with him.

When they got the item in their hands, his wife—Yuuka—draw the magic circle as her husband trying to prepare the ritual. He already got the catalyst to summon the strongest mage in history of mankind, a magus that help Arthuria Pendragon to be the king of Britain; although it's not a normal outcome that he might predicted as he already knew this.

He shake his head as he letting out a tired sigh.

'Goddamn, Merlin. You really love to make this harder. If it not for Elly, I don't want to do this.'

He then stretchs out his arms as he pour his magic onto it. That even enough to make him coughed a bit of blood, which makes his wife has worried face right now. But Theo who already knew it just shrug it off to his wife and tried to continue the summoning ritual.

The magic circle shone. A dim of light appears.

He then began to start the incantation when noticed that. He hesitated for a bit, but shake his head and trying to gather his focus onto this and let the problem be solved after the summoning.

"Let silver and steel be the essence. Let stone and the archduke of contracts be the foundation. Let gold be the color I pay tribute to. Let rise a wall against the wind that shall fall. Let the four cardinal gates close. Let the three-forked road from the crown reaching unto the Kingdom rotate."

The light in the magic circle began to grew. It slowly became bright. But Theo kept his incantation, he kept focus on his current objective and focus so the ritual isn't failed. He can't be distracted and failed in to do so.

"Let it be filled. Again. Again. Again. Again. Let it be filled fivefold for every turn, simply breaking asunder with every filling."

It's coming. The magus is coming. The one who referred as The Magus of Flowers. Finest and strongest magus, the one who help the reign of King Arthur. The one who also accompany him in the journey, but alas—he hold one of King Arthur's biggest secret; a secret that must be hidden, must be unknown from common people, from outside of trusted ones.

Bright light shone. It's bright enough to covered an entire body of person. A mage, a non-human mage that made his entry into Arthurian Legends, a prophet which also advisor of King Arthur. The court magus who at times guide the young king-to-be of Great Britain in his journey.

A legendary magus.

Then— it's appeared. A figure of man. He wore a robe woven with the finest fabrics, though he still looks modest, his long hair appearing with the colours of the rainbow under sunlight. He held an odd-looking black staff as his left hand while a modest yet fine smile flashed onto his lips.

As that, his lips then move and speak.

"Greetings, Master. I am Merlin. People call me the Magus—"

Before he finished his line, it got cut off by the hard and hurt feeling in the magus' right cheeks. It's a hard and strong-filled punch that make the Magus of Flowers' body collapse and hit the floor and delivered by the man who hates him so much and a bit protective to his daughter.

Yuuka, the former onmyouji, just sweatdrops seeing her husband behavior towards the magus right now. But she also can't do anything about this, since it would be bad for her husband's mind if it delayed and if he can't delivered a single punch to the rainbow-colored hair magus.

"Heh. I always wanna do it. You d.i.c.k-bastard mage."

His wife just shake her head and sighed.

"…Dear. Don't you think it's too… harsh?"

"Harsh? Huh. I doubt it. He will not die because of this as he's incubus. Well, half-incubus because his blood is mixed with human, but my point is stand. He will be fine."

"Alright then. But your punch successfully knocked out his conscious, dear. We must wake him up and settle our business with him."

Theo scratch his head reluctantly.

"I know, I know. Just hope he will give the key and perform the ritual for it. If not, then I have to beat the crap out of his ass."

"Please don't."

Tokyo Station – Entrance

Several minutes has passed since Eleonora leave her house and go to the place that will become her first stop to reach Nanbu-chou, Yamanashi. She then getting out of the limousine and bid farewell to her driver, allowing herself to walk toward the station deeper than she should have been.

Of course she already purchased the ticket via online, so she don't have to wait for long to get the ticket. Although she has to wait for the train for a while to come, but she don't have any problem with that as she use this chance to chatting in the chat group; she has something to tell to some of them after all.

Queen of Sweets: "@Hajime True Soulmate-san, I already learned all of the spells in the file you give me a few days ago and it's turns out very wonderful. Although I don't have the chance to test the destructive power of it."

Hajime True Soulmate: "…Are you demi-human or sort? I believe that my spells isn't suitable for human to learn. But wait, you're human, right? If that's true, then how come…?"

Pudding Lover: "Weeeeell… of course she is human. She has the almighty aura of protagonist and all kind of bullshit that throwed to her! What can you expect from a heroine like her, duh?"

Hajime True Soulmate: "@Queen of Sweets Seriously, you're human or not? Also, that spell isn't something that easy to learn and you… manage to learn all of it within a few days? How's that possible?"

Queen of Sweets: "I'm 100% sure human but maybe because the influence of my talent. I mean, one from many talents I possesses. Maybe because I'm quick learner, then I able to learn of it quickly than anyone. From the moment I born, it's a fact that I'm different than others."

The Florist Succubus: "Whoah! You're genius, @Queen of Sweets-san! Maybe you're like big sis that genius in inventing or making something too? And how many talents you possesses?"

Queen of Sweets: "Enough to makes me gain a title of [Super Woman] and something like the youngest genius. I'm blessed with many talents and it's useful to me, so it's wrong if I do not use it to its fullest potential."

Queen of Sweets: "And yes, @The Florist Succubus-san. I also sometimes inventing. Currently I built a lab to let my ideas becomes real. One of them is… should I say it? It's kind of embarrassing."

Pudding Lover: " Say it! Say it! I'm curious about it!"

The Florist Succubus: "Yeah! Me too! I'm curious about what kind of invention you want to make."

The Nightmare: "Oh my. Don't force yourself to tell us, @Queen of Sweets-san. Any person has their own secrets after all and some don't want it to be known by people around them; especially the ones who close to them."

Golden Fox of Kyoto: "That's right. Don't push her, @Pudding Lover-san, @The Florist Succubus-san. It's rude and will bother her."

Pudding Lover: "Nepu-nepu! That's not fair and lame. But well, maybe I can get it when we meet each other. Hehe."

The Florist Succubus: "Ooooh. You're so sly, @Pudding Lover-san. Fufu, then I'll do that too when the times we meet each other, @Queen of Sweets-san. Please wait patiently for me, okay?"

Sword Princess: "Don't worry, @Queen of Sweets. When me and @Pudding Lover meet, I'll bonk her head."

Pudding Lover: "Nepu! That's cruel, @Sword Princess!"

Eleonora just chuckled happily when reads the chat and seeing the people inside the group. Life surely becomes more interesting and fun for her right now, although she didn't mean that her life before is bad or sort of but it's just not that excited. She just want this kind of thing.

"Maybe all the recent events is partially my fault…"

She mumble it with sad face, but immediately shake her head and banish that kind of thought. She don't want to think about bad things too much as she always trying to think at the bright side and positive or it will be bad for her mental.

For now she has to enjoy her holiday, a week of holiday. Fill her holiday with good memories and much fun so it will not filled with many bad things in the current situation the world have right now. Since humanity's spirit and will may be eroded slowly given by times if the situation isn't handled correctly.

Human is fragile being. They're weak compared to supernatural being, they sitting in the lowest food chain. Their body is weak, fragile—so is their mental, their minds. Although they called as perfect creature, the perfect being that the god has created and loved so much; they will perish given in times, especially with how frightening and messed up is their history.

A history that full of bloods. Bloodshed everywhere. Blood and kill is necessary for them to reach their goals, to achieve something that they needs and want. But such thinking isn't the main concern of Eleonora Pendragon since she do not care that much about humanity except her and people she cared about. Or maybe someone that causing her a trouble even if they're basically stranger to each other.

As soon as she finish her thought, the sounds of train coming can be heard. A few minutes later the train coming and stop over at the train line. Crowds of people rushing their way to come go inside of the train, one by one already filled again with many passenger including Eleonora; she chose a women-only train since it's more safe rather than the mixed train.

She can breathe a sigh of relief when success to get inside the train and not miss it. She don't want it happened or she has to wait for another stop. It would interrupt her date time with her girlfriend if that happened and no one who has girlfriend/boyfriend that loving each other want that.

But now she can fulfill it, the promised date with her girlfriend. She just smiled when looking out the window.

------

A few minutes has passed after the summoning ritual. Currently, the Magus of Flowers that has been called by Theodore, the father of Eleonora Pendragon, already awake from his unconscious state because of the blow that was delivered by the summoner himself.

Instead of angry, the magus just letting out playful laugh while he sweating when seeing the face of his summoner right now. He now that his fate right now might be doomed and if he said anything wrong, he might not be saved anymore and would be throwed back to whenever he comes; he's not dead since he is half-incubus and thus make him Living Servant instead of Heroic Spirit but he still need catalyst to be summoned by someone and that's why Theodore Pendragon use that.

Theodore just crossing his arms and look at Merlin with annoyed expression. But the Magus trying to be positive and kept his smiling face, as well Yuuka who trying to kept her awkward smile as she felt the awful atmosphere between the two. She can't do anything when her husband became like this or it will be bad since her husband always hold how he feel towards that magus.

He really hate him. It's obvious from how his face look right now.

But just keep quiet will not solve the problem, that's why Merlin the Magus of Flowers decided to speak first as he let out a cough to gain their attention to him and it's success, even Theodore right now pay attention to him.

"Ahem. Greetings, the descendant of Pendragon and someone who has the tie with Abe no Seimei. I heed your call and respond to it. I certainly sure that there's no Holy Grail or anything yet I'm summoned as Servant—a Living Servant—not Heroic Spirit. So, what is the purpose of my summoning, my Master?"

He give them friendly and gentle smile, trying to be professional and cast aside his personal feeling. As Theodore noticed that, he then do the same and cast away his feeling for a while and lock his eyes to the magus with serious look.

"Since you're already knew who am I, then it won't take a long time but I explain it."

"There's nothing that my eyes miss."

"Then, I'll explain it for you the reason."

And then, Theodore began to explaining what's the reason behind Merlin the Magus of Flowers, summoning are which is be accepted and understanding by the magus. He hears it clearly their reason as to why he been summoned and using Servant Summoning is the quickest way for them to reach Merlin since his location is currently out of this universe and Servant Summoning itself still capable to be used even from different universe, dimension or even world.

He nods his head several times and speak up.

"Okay, I already know your reason and it's partially my fault as I don't know it became like that."

"Finally… it's hard to find your catalyst, the real one, damnit. Since Pendragon family is considered fiction tale in this world, I can't use that advantage even if I use it as my actual name instead of fake name."

"Ah. But it also comes up with some benefits. Like some people don't have to watch your back or anything, like they're not suspicious of you, right?"

"…I hate how you are right."

But Merlin just chuckled seeing Theodore grumbling at that. Yuuka who watching their interaction then spoke.

"Um, Merlin-sama…"

"Ah. Child, you don't have to call me with honorific. I am just a mere Servant right now. Although it's undeniable that I'm the Magus of Flowers, there's no need to be that tense and formal with me. Just act normally. Okay?"

Yuuka nods her head as she understand.

"Uhum, yes. Merlin-san, if possible… could you also train our daughter since you're the strongest mage of humanity? I mean, it's good opportunity since she already unlock her magic power and self-taught herself as I seen it."

"Train the direct descendant of Arthuria, huh. Are you sure about that, Master?"

His gaze changed toward Theodore, which makes the man nod his head acknowledging. This made the smile of the magus slightly widened as he felt a bit happy knowing that. It will be like the old time when he accompany King Arthur as his prophet and advisor; the nostalgic feeling of it.

He would never forgot about that, even if anyone around him forgot it but he never.

"Then, I will happily take the job as her magic instructor when I am still here. But Master, your magic…"

Theodore shake his head to Merlin.

"I know that. My time is almost up and there's nothing I can do, unless some miracle happened."

"I'm sorry Master. Even my magecraft or magic can't do something about it. Even if I was referred as the strongest and powerful mage ever in the mankind history. It would take some miracle to make it happened."

"It's invetable. After King Arthur turned to pseudo-male by you for a while for the sake of producing a heir, which resulted Mordred to be born because of some i.n.c.e.s.t play. A homunculus and unwanted child of Arthuria Pendragon. The result of your magic later evolve and became some kind of curse for male, their magic will be slowly eroded and so is their life. Their soul slowly eroded and became weak, but their health still looks fine outside."

Merlin adopting sympathic look right now when hear Theodore explanation. Yuuka just give her husband one arm hug and trying to comfort him in the best way when seeing his husband pained expression when told it.

"So… is that what the cause of what I do, huh. I've never thought about it too far. What on my mind that time is for the sake of King Arthur. For the sake of her, but alas… my prophet title is seems can't even predict that kind of outcome."

"I hate you when learn it, but now…? After knowing the fact that you didn't expect of it, I don't know what I should do with it. Huh, what a funny joke."

He laugh weakly when said that.

------

"Dear passenger, we'll reach our final stop, Yamanashi Station, momentarily. Please check your belongings before leaving the train. We repeat. Dear passenger, we'll reach our final stop, Yamanashi Station, momentarily. Please check your belongings before leaving the train."

Hearing the announcement, Eleonora then checking her belongings again before departed from the train and leave the station. To make sure her belonging isn't left behind. Although some important things already stored inside her [Inventory] as her suitcase only contain something that can be purchased from anywhere by her; it's mean anything inside in the suitcase isn't that important.

After a few minutes of announcement, it's announced again.

"Dear passenger, we'll reach our final stop, Yamanashi Station, momentarily. Please check your belongings before leaving the train. We repeat. Dear passenger, we'll reach our final stop, Yamanashi Station, momentarily. Please check your belongings before leaving the train."

When hearing that, Eleonora then prepare herself as the train slowly decrease its speed the moment they closer and about reach the final stop of the train destination. The train door then opened, slowly yet quickly people immediately out from the train; as well Eleonora who see that.

The moment she leave the train, her next destination then to reach Kagamihara Sakura's house or Kagamihara's family home. She then slowly and steady walking towards the exit gate of Yamanashi Station located is which also the same with the enter gate.

A few minutes walked, she then finally out from the station area and greeted with someone she knew. She noticed it when the sound of car horn can be heard by her and a beautiful pale-skinned young woman with waist-length violet hair that is tied back with two hair strands hanging on both side, as well dark blue eyes where she wears a black square-rimmed glasses waving her hand to her.

The woman wears violet parka that match with her hair and her usual brown winter jacket that kept her body always warm in the current season in japan right now. She smiled at Eleonora as the young chairman walked closer to the woman and give her a hug which was be responded with quick peck on her cheek by the violet-haired woman.

"Hey Leo. How are you been these days?"

Eleonora just flashed a smile to the woman.

"I'm fine and always be. Instead of that, how about we go to your home first? I want to put my belonging there and after that we headed out. I also want to greet your family."

"Alright. Then without wasting our time, better we go now."

"Okay!"

Both then walks together to the car and headed out to that woman, Kagamihara Sakura, house as Eleonora want to put her belongings first before they have their promised date and maybe changes their outfits to fits the date atmosphere and mood later.

"Ah right. How about Nadeshiko-chan and others? Is there anything wrong? Especially those pet you told me few days ago."

Started the engine, Sakura just sighed and use her seat belt as Eleonora already do the same when she finished put her belongings onto the trunk.

"That idiot sister of mine still treat it like some kind of pet. Luckily there's nothing serious happened so far to us and everything around. It's peaceful, nothing dangerous happened."

"I see. But it still intrigue me that slime would appear in there."

"I know, right? We even made a pet house for her pet. How ridiculous is it."

Eleonora just sweatdrops as she laugh awkwardly when heard what Sakura said about it. Her girlfriend just shake her head when thinking again about what her sister ridiculous things always do. Sometimes it's really give Sakura a headache and want to put stop at her little sister childish behavior.

"Well, to put it up with how ridiculous is it, I think it will be normal soon with how this world condition currently has. Maybe we should get used to it and treat it as normal and I know it would take you a long time to get used to it."

"…Really, what an observant girlfriend you are, Leo. You really knew me so well."

"Of course, I'm your girlfriend after all and we already knew each other for so long. It would be weird if I don't know a thing or two about you when we getting to know each other for that long."

"You really are sharp. If only Nadeshiko like you too, then I wouldn't be worried about her many times. She really always worry me. Not to mention when she carelessly sleep in front of restroom after recklessly go from Utsubuna to just see Mount Fuji and ended up around in Lake Motosu."

"Haha… ha… ha. Your sister really amazing."

She just couldn't call Nadeshiko weird since it's bit impolite when said that, but Sakura snorted and respond to her girlfriend unsure answer.

"It's okay, you can call her weird or anything because she is like that. I bet she won't even care about that and just behave like usual."

"…Alright, maybe later but Nadeshiko-chan really amazing. She went from Utsubuna to Lake Motosu with only a bike, even scooter speed limit is 18mph yet she can do more than that with just a bike. Her desire to see Mount Fuji in close really admirable."

"Maybe that just her being weird."

Sakura just sighed when remember how ridiculous is it but decided to ignore it and thinking about how will her date with Eleonora goes later as she thinking about changes her usual parka with something more that has date theme in it.

She felt really happy inside yet she couldn't show it very well on her face. It's difficult for her but she trying so hard for it.
