Kiritsugu was taken aback—It seemed even the Einzbern head didn't know this young man's identity.

He tensed up, wary of the intruder.

"How did I get in? I walked in—of course," Roy replied with a casual shrug and a smirk.

The Einzbern head scowled, then looked questioningly at the mages standing nearby.

'Were they controlled?'

That was his first thought—It was the only explanation for how this young man could barge in so easily.

The Einzberns were one of the Three Founding Families. Their defenses were formidable.

No ordinary person would dare trespass—let alone do so without being detected.

This intruder must be incredibly powerful.

The Einzbern head decided against any rash actions. "May I ask why you have come to our Einzbern territory?" he inquired cautiously.

"Well, it's nothing major. I'm just here to take Irisviel," Roy replied with a smile, holding Irisviel's hand.

The Einzbern head glanced at Irisviel.

He recognized her as—the most exceptional homunculus of this generation.

And she was already implanted with the Lesser Grail.

As the vessel for the Holy Grail, he couldn't allow anyone to take her away.

But Roy wasn't finished.

"Oh, and one more thing—I find your method of creating homunculi to be quite cruel. So—I think it's time for this technology to disappear."

The Einzbern head was enraged.

The creation of homunculi was the foundation of their family. Almost all Einzberns were homunculi.

Without this technology—their family would decline.

He was about to attack, but then he looked at Kiritsugu, who had been silent all this while, and an idea formed in his mind.

"Mr. Emiya, this man is despicable. Would you mind dealing with him? We will reward you—handsomely," he said to Kiritsugu with a sly smile.

Kiritsugu's face darkened.

This intruder had just threatened to destroy the Einzbern family.

He must be incredibly powerful to make this bold claim.

And the Einzbern mages were already under his control.

Although Kiritsugu was a skilled Magus Killer—he wasn't confident in facing this unknown threat.

Who knew what kind of monster this seemingly young man was?

But for the sake of his partnership with the Einzberns, he gritted his teeth and charged towards Roy with his knife.

"Hey, Mr. Emiya—what do you think you're doing?" Roy asked, raising an eyebrow.

He hadn't expected Kiritsugu to attack him.

Well, he had no choice but to teach him a lesson.

Kiritsugu suddenly felt the ground disappear beneath his feet. He was flipped upside down and suspended in mid-air.

Roy, holding Kiritsugu with his magic, drew a circle in the air with his finger.

Kiritsugu began to spin.

Irisviel clapped her hands excitedly, watching Kiritsugu twirl in the air.

"Fun! Daddy—this is fun!" she exclaimed.

"...."

Roy would have been happy to hear her cheerful voice, but her choice of words dampened his mood.

Being called "Daddy" by a beautiful girl who looked almost as old as him, in front of so many people...

It was awkward, to say the least.

If anyone from the modern world saw this, they would definitely label him a "lolicon"!

Roy continued to toy with Kiritsugu, using his magic to control his movements.

He wasn't planning on killing him, though.

After spinning Kiritsugu until he was dizzy, Roy released him.

Kiritsugu collapsed to the ground, unable to stand still due to the dizziness.

The Einzbern head watched in shock.

Kiritsugu, the Magus Killer—had been treated like a toy.

He was terrified.

...

"Alright, that's enough fun for now. We should be going," Roy declared, taking Irisviel's hand.

He snapped his fingers.

The Authority of Magic—usurped from Odin—activated.

All traces of the Einzbern's homunculus technology vanished.

The equipment disappeared, and even the knowledge of the techniques was erased from their minds.

They only remembered that such technology existed, but they couldn't recall how it worked.

Roy then vanished from the Einzbern castle with Irisviel.

...

"Daddy, I'm hungry!" Irisviel exclaimed, sniffing the delicious aroma wafting from a nearby restaurant.

Her mouth watered involuntarily.

Roy chuckled.

"Alright, Daddy will take you to eat something delicious!"

He froze mid-sentence.

He had accidentally slipped into the role of a 'daddy' again.

'What the heck! I don't want to be a lolicon!' he thought with a sigh.

He led Irisviel to a ramen shop.

...

After ordering two bowls of ramen—Roy pondered his next move.

Now that he had Irisviel, it was time to save—Sakura.

He had to rescue that poor girl from her suffering.

Suddenly, Irisviel tugged at his arm.

"What is it, Irisviel?"

"Hmph! Daddy is ignoring me!" she pouted, turning her head away but still sneaking glances at him.

"Sorry, Irisviel. I was just thinking about something," Roy apologized.

"Then—I forgive you, Daddy!" Irisviel beamed, turning back and hugging his arm tightly.

The shop owner, who had just arrived with their ramen, gave them a strange look.

This young man was quite the player, having his "daughter" call him "Daddy"!

He set the bowls down and left, still looking at them strangely.

Roy blushed, but Irisviel seemed oblivious.

Roy sighed.

He had to correct her way of addressing him.

...

That night, they checked into a hotel.

"Two rooms, please," Roy told the receptionist.

The receptionist glanced at them and nodded. "Certainly, sir. Please wait a moment."

"Daddy, we only need one room. I want to stay with Daddy," Irisviel declared, clinging to Roy's arm.

"...."

The lobby fell silent.

Everyone stared at them with strange expressions.

Roy wanted to disappear.

He sighed, not bothering to explain.

"Sir, your room is ready. Please follow me—" a staff member said, leading them to their room.

Irisviel refused to stay in a separate room.

After a barrage of tears and pleas, Roy finally relented.

...

"Irisviel, come sit here," Roy instructed, having Irisviel sit on the sofa in the living room.

"Carry me, Daddy!" Irisviel yawned, reaching out her arms, wanting Roy to take her to bed.

Roy facepalmed.

"Irisviel, sit properly. I'm going to perform the Devil transformation ritual now. Don't resist, okay?"

As a homunculus, Irisviel had many flaws, the biggest one being her short lifespan.

The Einzberns' technology wasn't perfect.

But if Roy made her his servant, all her problems would be solved.

Once she became a Devil, her physical flaws would disappear.

Irisviel nodded sleepily.

Her body was still adjusting to being "born."

Roy waved his hand, and a blue magic circle appeared.

Soon, Irisviel was successfully transformed into a Devil.

As a Devil—she could now control the Lesser Grail within her.

The Lesser Grail was originally a vessel for souls, but Roy had modified it.

It was now a Sacred Gear-like artifact that could absorb souls.

But instead of simply storing them, it would nourish Irisviel's soul, making her stronger.

The Lesser Grail was created by the Three Founding Families. Modifying it was a simple task for Roy with his Authority of Magic.

Irisviel floated in mid-air, her eyes closed.

A pair of small, delicate Devil wings fluttered behind her.

"Daddy, I can fly!" she exclaimed, opening her eyes and seeing herself floating.

She then flew into Roy's arms.

"Okay, Irisviel, it's time for bed."

Roy carried her to the bed.

But Irisviel wasn't sleepy. She clung to Roy.

"Daddy, tell me a story!" she pleaded.

Roy, looking at her hopeful eyes, couldn't refuse.

"Once upon a time, there was a mountain. And on that mountain, there was a temple..."

...

Morning arrived.

Roy woke up to an itchy sensation on his nose.

Irisviel was tickling him with a feather.

She jumped when he opened his eyes and quickly threw the feather away, pretending to be asleep.

Roy chuckled at her childish antics.

"Come on, Irisviel, it's time to wake up. We're leaving today."

"Okay, Daddy!" Irisviel sat up with a bright smile.

Roy sighed at her choice of words.

"Irisviel, you can't call me Daddy when there are other people around. Understand?"

"Eh? Why not?" Irisviel looked at him with confusion.

"Because—it makes me look like a pervert," Roy explained awkwardly.

"Oh." Irisviel nodded, not quite understanding.

"Just call me Onii-chan when there are other people around."

"Okay, Onii-chan!" Irisviel replied cheerfully.

Roy nodded in satisfaction.

They got out of bed and went to have breakfast.

"Onii-chan, what are we having today?" Irisviel asked excitedly as they passed through the hotel lobby.
