Aoi didn't know what to do as her head was a mess, and she cried watching the death of her husband.

If she didn't have the crystal ball given by Tamazuki, then she wouldn't know all of this!

Yet, she knew all of this.

Her husband was killed by his disciple, and his Servant also betrayed him.

Kirei and Gilgamesh had worked together and betrayed her husband!

Yet... what should she do?

She was filled with fear, sadness, terror, and also hatred.

She knew that as they had killed her husband, it was impossible for them to let her go and even her daughter. There was a huge chance that they would target her and her family.

"Tamazuki..."

Suddenly, she thought of someone who could help her, but could he?

Facing a Servant, whose might could even destroy a city or two, could he do something?

Yet... she didn't have anyone to rely on except for him!

Her mind was a mess, and at the same time, she wished to kill Gilgamesh and Kirei, bringing them into despair.

Clenching her firsts tightly until blood seeped out, Aoi made up her mind. She walked out of her room and went to her daughter's room. There, she saw her daughter sleeping so soundly without realizing anything.

"..."

Watching her daughter's expression, Aoi hesitated, but she knew that this was necessary to protect her daughter. As she made up her mind, her daughter seemed to wake up.

"...mom?"

Rin was confused as she looked at her mother. She was still sleepy and wondering whether she was still in a dream.

"Rin, we have to go. Prepare your luggage."

"Huh?"

Rin was confused.

While Aoi was in a hurry, she still comforted her daughter dearly as she stroked her cute face. "Rin, prepare your luggage as soon as possible. We have to go now."

Rin wasn't a stupid child, and she knew that something must be happening.

If there was a reason why they would leave tonight so suddenly, then

Rin's expression turned pale, and her eyes were moist.

"Rin..."

If they walked out in the middle of the night and suddenly met this companion, then what should they do?

It was why almost no people or even vehicles could be seen on this street.

Yet, it was fortunate for the two of them since they would attract attention.

As they walked, Rin never said anything and just followed her mother faithfully. She never questioned how her mother knew where Tamazuki was living, but her mother seemed to know more, yet it didn't matter since what she was worried about was what had happened to her father.

Rin knew that something must have happened to her father, but who?

Who had caused a disaster for her father?

As she was in deep thought, a hateful figure suddenly emerged in her mind.

'Kirei?'

Rin shook her head since she knew that even though Kirie was hateful, he was still her father's disciple, so it was impossible for Kirei to do something to her father.

As she was caught in her thoughts, she looked up when her mother suddenly stopped.

"...is this where Sensei lives?"

Rin looked at the single house that wasn't much different from the surroundings, yet strangely, it appeared better and gave a better mood for anyone who stepped in.

Rin became curious, but Aoi had been rather quiet.

"...yes."

Aoi didn't hesitate to step in and press the bell of her room, feeling uneasy, waiting for him.

Then, it didn't take a long time before the door opened.

"Aoi-san? Rin-chan?"

Rin was about to greet Tamazuki, but Aoi suddenly hugged Tamazuki and cried, feeling at ease when he was by her side.

"Tamazuki..."

"Wait! Wait! Aoi-san!"

"......."

Rin blinked her eyes as she looked at her mother and hugged Tamazuki tightly.

Tamazuki wanted to ask something, but Aoi kept crying, and Rin stared at him blankly. While he felt speechless, he knew there was something that he needed to do.

"Anyway, let's come in first. We can talk inside."

Even if he didn't know what was happening, he knew that it was better to let them enter first.

After all, if his neighbors saw him holding a married woman in his arms with a little child by his side, what would they think?

Nevertheless, he had a feeling he would get the Holy Grail soon.
