Relaxing Time

after finishing the dinner both Kairi and I are the only one left in the dining hall.

"so, what do you need?, this talk wont just include strategy isn't it?"

"well I want to ask a favor from you, since your wish is to bring back your daughter you would probably stop being a mercenary right."

"yes that's my intention so?"

"how about I give you all of my saving and gold coin to you but help me taking care the orphanage as well with Sieg."

"what do you have in mind?"

"Sieg is still immature I want you to help him."

"well even without you saying that I have the intention to ask you for helping me find a safe place for me and my daughter to stay, but it seems will be impossible since we don't know what will happen."

"that's why I am giving all my fortune I saved up as a guarantee, I need you to trust me in dealing with Shirou and don't go near the Grail, how about it?"

Kairi then become quite for a moment, and looking into my eyes trying to see what my true intention is.

"how about this we will sign another contract, I will bring the Grail to a safe place before asking for a wish, we will meet up and enter the grail at the same time, so how about it?" I then put forward another condition to persuade him.

after a long moment of thinking he then said. "ok then, I will sign the contract, so what's the plan."

"you and Sieg will enter with the rest of the Servant, your job is to help them contain the other servant while I and Jeanne deal with Semiramis and Shirou."

"what is the chance of winning?"

"80%, as long I have Hassan with me the chance is quite high in winning, 80% is just a conservative estimation since we can't be sure of Shirou if he has any other card."

after saying that I then tell him that I already plant a powerful explosive as well Golem on the Hanging Garden, it will be a powerful help to him, and I will give him control over it so he can decide when to use it, and with that he can easily infiltrate the Hanging Garden.

"ok then, I will follow Sieg." after saying that he said goodbye and exit the Hall before giving me a final look and said. "be careful and good luck."

"sure, don't die out there, it will be hard to explain to your daughter if that happen."

he then nodded and closed the door to the dining hall.

***

"Contractor, I detect a trace of uncertainty in thy deeds. Pray, what is the cause of this hesitation?"

"as receptive as always Gramps, I am worried of the anomaly in the war."

"I comprehend not. Hast thou not already discerned the issue at hand?"

I can only keep quite since I can't really say the reason, because I am not sure if Alaya and Gaia are watching me or not.

this made me worries what would those two existence will do to a foreign soul.

"well let's just say I have some worries, thank Gramps for worrying about me."

"It is a trifling concern, Contractor."

***

"ok Sieg we will wait for the Yggdmillennia to prepare, so we will need to wait for them so they can prepare, so while we do that we can relax."

"I Understand."

"So Sieg please have fun for today."

both of us continue talking while waiting for our own companion for the sightseeing.

"Alex did I make you wait too long?"

"Master let's go play around again."

Sieg were drag by Rider to have fun while I reply to Jeanne to not be worried and ask her to walk slowly with me.

"so Jeanne this will be the last time we have a peaceful moment, can I ask you a question?"

"sure Alex what do you want to ask?"

"Jeanne when you are burn on the stake did you feel angry for the one who put you on there?"

"no, I accept what my decision led me into."

"well as expected Jeanne is a Saint even if she still denies it."

"I am not a Saint, I am just an ordinary Village Girl."

"well why can't you be both, and like it or not, not anyone can be as forgiving as you, well let's forget about that and allow the city boy to accompany the Village Beauty."

"then please take care of me." She showed a vibrant smile then took my hand and started to run towards the town.

when we arrive at the town we went around to see the scenery around the town and interact with the people around.

"Big brother are you going on a date with the Beautiful sister behind you?"

"yes, what are you guys doing?"

"we are about to play tag, will you join us Big Brother?"

"ok then so who will be the It?, in the game."

"how about Big Brother chase the two of us and the Big Sister."

"how about it Jeanne, will you join us?"

"sure, Alex you need to be fast to catch up to me."

"oho, is that a challenge Jeanne?, ok then if I lose how about I treat you guys for a meal, you can make any request you want."

"ok kids let's run from Big Brother over there."

hearing the words from Jeanne they started to laugh and run, seeing this Jeanne also started to run as well along with the Kids.

"Big Brother will let you all have a head start."

hearing this they started to run faster, seeing this I started to smile and chased after them, I keep my strength and keep chasing them, even if I don't use all my strength, the kids can't keep up with my endurance so I caught them one by one.

"say will you help big brother to catch the big sister smiling over there?"

"ok we will help."

with the help of the both of them we catch Jeanne after that I ask them where I can buy a drink, they took me and Jeanne to the store, I then invite them for a drink and it seems the owner of the shop recognize them.

after treating them for a drink they said goodbye to me and Jeanne and return home.

"how is it Jeanne?, did you have fun?"

"it was very fun to play with you and the Kids, so where are we going next?"

hearing her words I took her hand and then Immediately pay the store owner, after that we tour around the city and meet the people around, until it is almost night where we return back to the castle.
