the next morning.
Matou Shinji started the morning practice early as usual, but this time there was one more figure watching the sword practice. Mousse in a maid costume stood behind Matou Sakura, her eyes full of curiosity about the surroundings.
Of course, she was just looking around, her body was obediently standing behind Matou Sakura, and now she was Matou Shinji and Matou Sakura's personal maid.
Matou Sakura is holding a book and reading, occasionally looking up at Matou Shinji. She has a wide range of books, not only the magic book of the Matou family, but also various other miscellaneous books.
In the early morning sun, the petite girl sits under the shade of a tree, holding a thick book and flipping through it. The golden sunlight passes by. This scene will make people feel peaceful and peaceful.
In the courtyard of Matou's house at this time, those wooden stakes and pendulum clocks have disappeared, and now Matou Shinji no longer needs them, and what he holds in his hand is no longer a wooden sword.
It was a dark knight's long sword with purple magic patterns on it. It looked just like the long sword of the arrogant knight, but the size and length were just reduced to fit a seven-year-old child.
[Arrogant, like a gangrene with bones] This unknown spell is engraved on the blade, and occasionally there will be a trace of lavender magic light.
That's right!
This is indeed the long sword of the arrogant knight. I don't know when this magic sword appeared in Matou Shin's second hand.
call out--!
With the last piercing sound, Matou Shinji loosened his second hand, the long sword turned into a black mist and dissipated on the way to fall, and returned to Matou Shinji's body.
"Shinji wipes his sweat."
Matou Sakura immediately shoved the book in her hand into Mousse's hand behind her, then picked up the towel that was stacked on the side, and trotted and handed it to Matou Shinji, with a happy light on her face, doing what she could do every morning, It was one of the happiest moments in Matou Sakura's heart.
Matou Shinji got the towel, wiped the sweat off his head well, and then gave Matou Sakura a smile: "Thank you very much, Sakura."
"This kind of thing is nothing...Shinji, if I can, I can do more things!"
Matou Sakura first shook her head, then suddenly her eyes lit up, and she said the second half of the words with anticipation on her face.
"Ah? Haha, don't think nonsense, you're just a six-year-old child, study hard, eat well, just let Mousse help you with anything, okay, I'm going to take a bath, you guys first Come to the restaurant and wait for me!"
He smiled and patted Sakura's head. After Matou Shinji finished speaking, he walked towards the bathroom. He didn't want to go to school in sweat every morning, sticky and uncomfortable!
Looking at Shinji who entered Matou's house, Matou Sakura's face was also a little red, and she whispered: "Shinji is only one year older than me! Always teach me..."
The voice became smaller and smaller until the voice disappeared completely. Musi, who was standing behind Matou Sakura, looked at the girl in confusion, tilted her head slightly, and her blue hair followed the morning breeze. Swinging, she had absolutely no idea what happened to Matou Sakura.
But she kept this scene firmly in her heart. After all, if there is a chance in the future, she may understand what happened today, right?
Should be.
...
Just like what used to happen every day.
Matou Sakura will be waiting for Matou Shinji to take a bath in the restaurant, but today there is an extra mousse behind her.
Matou Shinji didn't take a long bath, he just washed the sweat off his body, but after a while, he sat on the dining table with the scent of the shower gel.
Originally, there was a large European dining table here, but Matou Shinji replaced it directly.
There are only two people with the surname Matou here. Why do you want such a big table, for fear that Matou Sakura is not introverted and inferior?
"Well... today's breakfast is good, it looks like the chef's cooking skills have improved again."
Matou Shinji praised and said that the professional chef of the Matou family, in order to keep this easy and high-paying job, tried his best to please Matou Shinji.
In this family, the young Matou Shinji is the real boss. This is something that all the employees of the Matou family are aware of.
At first, there were people who wanted to fool Matou Shinji. After a few people were fired directly, the remaining people immediately became disciplined. Coupled with the strict management of the head maid, the entire Matou house ran in an orderly manner.
Faced with this Matou Shinji who doesn't look like a child, the chef naturally has to work hard, whether it is serious about his work or flattering, anyway, this guy changes his way of cooking, and often makes Matou Shinji eat new food. dishes.
He is afraid of the loss of this job. Now Japan is at the time of the collapse of the economic bubble. This kind of work with small and light workloads but very rich wages, he will seize it no matter what! Must not be lost!
"It's really delicious."
Matou Sakura took a bite out of curiosity, and her eyes lit up instantly. The taste of this dish was really good, and then she couldn't help but eat two more bites.
"Haha... I'm afraid I'll snatch you from you, why eat so fast?" Matou Shinji said with a teasing smile.
"Well..."
Matou Sakura stopped her chopsticks instantly, her face turned ruddy, she sat upright in the chair instantly, no longer looking at the bad guy who made fun of her, and turned her head to look behind:
"Mousse, come and try the chef's new dishes."
"Hey..."
Before Matou Shinji could stop her, Matou Sakura shoved the chopsticks into Mousse's mouth, keeping Matou's words in her mouth, with a helpless smile on her face, she clearly knew that Mousse was not human...
"Well..."
Chew...chew!
Mousse started chewing subconsciously, then swallowed it. After touching her lips with her fingers, she said dumbly, "Delicious..."
Matou Shinji felt a little surprised that Mousse actually had a normal sense of taste, because the Matou family's mimetic magic simulated a mimetic organ? If so, it should be very helpful for mental growth.
Matou Sakura kept eating calmly, as if it wasn't her who put food into Mousse's mouth just now.
For such Sakura, the helplessness on Matou Shinji's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a smile from the heart.
This is the first time that Matou Sakura has done such a thing since he came to Matou's house. It was the first time that this kind of small gesture to hide his shame and anger appeared in front of Matou Shinji, which made him extremely happy.
This is a six-year-old girl.
After eating, the two went to school and started their normal day again.
...
Although Matou Sakura is introverted and does not like to talk, she still has a few children at school, and she is gradually getting used to going to school, and sometimes even looks forward to playing with her friends.
In the evening, Matou Sakura not only has to complete her homework, but also accepts Matou Shinji's magic class, allowing her to learn the basics of magic.
Because Matou Sakura worked very hard on this and learned very quickly, it is estimated that it will not take long before she can be transplanted with magic engraving.
Days go by like this
Flat - and peaceful.
There was no trouble to come to the door, and even after the news that the Matou family changed their head and decided not to participate in the Holy Grail War spread, Tohsaka Tokiomi didn't come to the door. It seems that he has been really busy recently.
He was so busy that such a thing happened at Matou's house, and he didn't even look at his daughter.
Of course... Maybe he's just abiding by the covenant, Matou and Tohsaka don't interfere with each other, and he's more competent as a magician than a father.
