Despite the incident in Unisberg, things had calmed down relatively quickly considering that the property damage was covered and the injuries were aided by Nightingale. However the biggest reason was because it was the holiday season!

2 Days after the Artoria Alter incident.

"So are you finally going to talk? I need to give the police an answer." Adam says as he sits down at the kitchen counter.

Archer of Inferno is standing guard observing Artoria.

"Hmph. Pathetic. To think you would claim to shelter me," Artoria stands defensively with her signature scowl.

"Yeah this isn't going anywhere... at least tell me why you went on to attack the city? Depending on your answer you can leave." Adam says.

Artoria looks at Archer and then around the house. Musashi opens the fridge and pulls out a bag from Burger Kingdom.

"That there. If you want negotiations I will take that as payment." Artoria points with her chin.

Adam turns around to see Musashi looking confused.

"You mean my burger? MY burger?! Sorry but you're going to have to get your own." Musashi is beginning to look hysterical.

"Um, you want one of those?" Adam asks.

"Are you so inept as to not understand? That is what I said."

Musashi gets defensive, cradling her bag.

"Alright alright, I'm ordering one now sheesh." Adam says using his phone.

"I will be using your lounging space, standing here has grown bothersome," Artoria says going into the living room and splaying herself out on the couch.

12 Minutes later.

"Mhm. Mhm. Yes. This is suitable enough. Supply me with these burgers and I will grant you this blade of mine."

"Sigh. So what's your deal?" Adam asks standing in front of Artoria Alter.

"Kneel before me, you should know your place before addressing me so familiarly. Not that I care for being a king... perhaps it's a matter of habit."

"Um..." Adam kneels down.

"Weak. I despise you already. As for our agreement..."

"Well hold on, I'm just doing what you asked!"

"Exactly. Is that how a Master should act? Pathetic, truly."

"Is this what Julius has to go through... " Adam thinks to himself.

"Now. Our agreement. I am here by command of the grail to destroy those I see fit should it pose a problem. Everyone else has been failing miserably."

"Wait what... what do you mean? The other Heroic Spirits are supposed to destroy things?" Adam stands back up.

Artoria shrugs and continues eating her burger.

Adam looks to Archer who looks back to him with concern. Ushiwakumaru is coming downstairs and Musashi is watching from another room with an unpleasant gaze.

One week later.

"Yes! Udon! Udooon!" Musashi shouts, raising her fist.

"Mhm, some grilled chicken sounds great with a bowl of rice.." Ushiwakumaru walks behind Musashi as they cross the parking lot to the local high end Japanese restaurant.

Archer of Inferno is mid way keeping on out on the Master while Artoria Alter walks along at her own pace.

Adam is tipping off Mikey.
