Emiya Shirou carried a large bag of ingredients and put them in the kitchen, then wiped his sweat.
"That should be enough, Xiang An, just help put the table in the yard, just over there in the open space I left."
Annuo is processing some ingredients in the kitchen.
——Perhaps, after completing something important, it has become a tradition to have a big meal. Shirou Emiya proposed an idea, saying that he would invite those who participated in the battle against Angra Mainyu and the disintegration of the Great Holy Grail.
Everyone came to the house for a meal, and he and Annuo cooked together.
What Annuo is making now is the kind of soup that needs to be simmered for a whole day, and the rest are just some preparations.
Because there were a lot of things to deal with, Annuo simply requisitioned Akuko's kitchen - or rather Akuko lent it to her on her own initiative.
After meeting Xiang Yu once, Ajiezi's whole person changed. She was no longer taciturn, nor was she cold-faced all day long. She became much warmer and gentler.
Of course, only familiar people.
"Okay, you get busy first and leave it to me over there."
The dignified King of Northern Chu was reduced to a small laborer, but he seemed quite happy with it.
"It's really busy... How long has it been since this house was so busy?"
Fujimura Taiga sat aside, looking at the bustling scene in the courtyard with a sigh, holding his chin in his hand, and seemed to be reminiscing about something in his eyes.
When Emiya Kiritsugu was alive, there were only Emiya and his son in this house. After Kiritsugu passed away and she became Shirou's guardian, she started running here every day, but in the end, Shirou was alone every day.
But now...
That boy Yanagi Kazunari will stay here for a while longer, Emiya Kiritsugu's biological daughter Illya and her two maids will also live here in the future, and this Mr. Anno...
....
"Shirou, please skim the foam here."
Annuo glanced at Fujimura Taihe, waved to Shirou, and then walked in the direction of Fujimura Taihe.
"Miss Fujimura, can you come here for a moment?"
"Um?"
Fujimura Dahe raised his head in confusion, and found Annuo calling him, and nodded quickly.
"Ah, no problem?"
Taking Fujimura Dahe to the room in the house, Annuo tidied his clothes.
"I called you here because of some things about Illya."
Annuo looked at Fujimura Dahe and said seriously.
"Ah...you mean the name of that child's family...the Einzberns?"
Fujimura Taiga looked a little guessing.
"You can think of this, which means you have some guesses about her current situation."
An Nuo sighed lightly.
"That's right, her family is now at the center of some incidents due to some... illegal businesses."
"Furthermore, according to my investigation, the death of Illya's mother is also related to the Einzbern family."
"What the hell?"
Fujimura Taiga was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened and he looked at Annuo in disbelief.
An Nuo was silent for a few seconds, showing a somewhat difficult expression.
"You can understand it as...an internal struggle, something like that."
"It's hard for me to describe the specific reasons, and there are many things involved... If you want to know, I... can tell you in detail."
A little more detailed nonsense...it's nothing, anyway, it's already been nonsense so much, Annuo should get used to it.
"...Forget it, I always feel that there is something very dark, something that would make me uncomfortable to say...You should just tell me what you need me to do, about Ilyana
Child’s.”
After hesitating for a moment, Fujimura Dahe still said this, taking a look at the gray hair on Annuo's head.
Faced with Fujimura Taiga's open-mindedness, Annuo breathed a sigh of relief.
That's good, at least he can save a few brain cells from dying...
"Ilia, I will stay here for a long time in the future... Don't worry, I have talked to her and everyone else beforehand, and she sincerely wants to stay here."
"You also saw her getting along with Shirou."
"You mean...you want to go back to Europe?"
Fujimura Dahe heard the implication of Annuo's words.
Annuo nodded.
"You are someone close to Shirou, and you are also friends with Kiritsugu. I can trust you."
"So, I won't hide it from you. When I return to Europe this time, I actually want to find a way to punish or even ban the Einzbern family."
"this......"
Even though Taiga Fujimura had some guesses about what Annuo wanted to do, the strength of this answer was somewhat beyond her expectation.
Sanction and ban a European aristocratic family?
"Um...why did you do this?"
She frowned and looked at Annuo seriously.
"...Part of it is for Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel, but the more reason is because this family has involved in many aspects that cannot be tolerated by other families.
"
"This matter also has something to do with the Matou family."
"This family has become an existence that must disappear. I...perhaps only played a role in promoting it."
What Anno said is true.
Even if Anno didn't entrust Zuomura to kill Yubusta Kuhayed, the Matou family would do it.
The power of the Matou family in the magic world... is not ordinary.
Magicians can be said to be the most stoic people in the world, and they can also be said to be the most greedy people in the world. No matter from what aspect, most magic families have some feelings for the Matou family...
...a good impression.
The Matou family's financial resources are really very strong, and the magic materials that the Matou family has been trading are hard currency in the magic world, so no one will take the initiative to offend the Matou family, and will give appropriate advice to the Matou family in most matters.
The Tong family has a face.
If the Matou family wants to kill Einzbern, it will take some effort at best, but it can definitely be done.
Anno wanted to finish this matter and go back to where he should be...for Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel, and for Emiya Shirou and Illya.
"...So what you mean is that Illya will stay here in the future, so...will you come back in the future?"
