Rin takes us by the hands and leads us to a room, crossing the room while Taiga talks to Shirou and Sakura.
Rin:"Ojiro-kun, please do not enter the room while Luria is there."
Kageru: "Why?"
Rin: "Just do what I tell you."
Rin enters the room with Luria while I wait outside.
Two minutes after they enter, I notice a glow appear under the door.
The glow goes out, Rin opens the door and calls me inside.  I go in and she tells me to sit on the bed.
Kageru: "Okay, now what?"
Rin: "I want you to take your shirt off."
Kageru: "R-Rin what kind of question is that? I'm just your disciple and-..."
Rin looks at me embarrassed but soon her expression changes to anger.
Rin: "Y-you idiot! I just want to see your magic circuits! Don't think about ridiculous things. Now walk, do what I tell you!"
I take off my shirt and turn my back to her.  I feel your soft hands touch my back gently.
Rin: "I'll get started. Don't worry, it's just going to hurt a little."
Her hands begin to glow, and heat up with her magic.
I feel a little pain, but I get used to it and I can handle it.
Rin: "There, we're done."
Kageru: "Okay, what's all this for?"
Rin: "In a few days there will be a test at the Association of Mages. And I want to see how you do against that girl's hooded friend."
Kageru:"That girl? Ah, you must be talking about Luviagelita-senpai."
Rin: - Yes, it's that idiot.  And don't call her senpai again!
Kageru: "Okay, okay."

Rising from the bed, I put on my shirt, and after taking the first step out of the room, Rin catches my eye.

Rin: "By the way... if I'm not mistaken, both you and that hooded girl share the same magic or something."

I stop walking, and turn my full attention to Rin's words, slowly turning my face back.

Kageru:"what?"

Rin gives a little laugh, and responds

Rin:"oh my, Ojiro-kun~. Looks like you showed interest in something. Or rather, person."

Kageru: "he-hey! Don't get twisted ideas!"

My face reddens, and I try to hide it, looking away.

Kageru: "y-you know, who I feel something for..."

Rin lets out another laugh, and walks over to me, and having gotten close enough, she hugs me.

Rin: "hihi. That's cute, but be careful when declaring yourself."

My face gets even redder, and a little hot.  So I quickly move away from Rin.

Kageru: "d-declare!?"

Rin reaches out her hand, and flicks my nose.

Rin: "hahaha! Dude, you are so silly. Don't worry, maybe she likes your innocent and gentle way."

The woman in red puts both hands on her hips, and leans her torso forward, facing me closely, and with an angry expression.

Rin:"just try not to show more than that, huh."

Returning to her normal posture, Rin punches my shoulder and gives me a friendly, welcoming smile.

Rin:"I'm rooting for you, Ojiro-kun"

Embarrassed, I try to return the smile, but it comes out a little embarrassing.

Kageru: "Th-thank you. Hehe."

We both withdraw, and Luria stares at me happily."
Luria:"So how was it?"
Rin: "His circuits are fine, your creation magic could match his."
Kageru: "Who are you talking about Rin?"
Rin:"A wizard who wore two daggers and a red suit. But, you'll only get to that level with training."
I didn't understand what she meant by that, but I took her tip without thinking twice.
Rin: "Come on, Emiya-kun must have just made lunch."
We had lunch and spent the entire afternoon practically training.
I managed to improve my fortification a little training with Luria, man this is really complicated.
Later, Taiga and Sakura said goodbye and left.
Kageru: "Dude, doing these hidden drills is so weird. I felt so comfortable in the Clock Tower."
Luria:"I know. It's so boring."
Rin: "Stop complaining. Can't you see you're evolving?"
Kageru: "Yes, but very slowly."
Shirou: "No need to talk like that. You're getting stronger, and that's what matters, isn't it?"
Kageru: "Yeah, it can be."
The next day, Shirou was packing her things like she was going on a trip.
Kageru:"sensei, what are you doing?"
Shirou: "Kageru you woke up. Well, that's because the Mages Association sent a message."
Rin: "and we have to go because they said it's extremely important."
Kageru: "Rin, you too?"
Luria:"can you tell us what it is?"
Shirou: "Unfortunately, no. But, we'll see, if we can tell about it, when everything is resolved. Won't we, Tohsaka?"

Rin was holding her chin with her thumb and forefinger, looking thoughtful, but upon hearing Shirou's words, Rin "wakes up" and nods, almost without knowing

Rin"a-ah, yes, of course..."

Luria:"and who will take care of us?"
Rin: "You guys are already too big for this, but to prevent it, Sakura, and Fujimura-sensei will take care of you."
Shirou:"I called Mitsuzuri, so she might come around sometime."
M-Mitsuzuri-senpai?  Is she really going to come?
Luria: "Why so many people?"
Rin: "Sakura and Fujimura-sensei will take care of you, but as they're both wind heads, Mitsuzuri will only see if you're all right."
Luria:"then why not just call her?"
Shirou: "Fuji-nee and Mitsuzuri are a little busy, so whoever will stay with you for the most part will be Sakura."
Kageru: "I get it."
Shirou:"take care"
Rin hugs us and says goodbye to us.
Rin: "Take care. Luria, Kageru."
They both leave and it's just me and Luria in the house.
Kageru:"You know, I thought Rin was exaggerating to call Fuji-sensei and Sakura-senpai windheads."
Luria:"I thought so too. Hey..."
Luria approaches me a little embarrassed.

The girl swallows the saliva, and her voice comes out a little shaky.

Luria: "y-you know... there's something I really wanted to tell you..."

I look at her with an expression of surprise.  Luria looks away from her several times, trying to hide her shame.

On my way to calm her and ease the tension, I place my right hand on her shoulder, and smile.

Kageru: "It's okay. You can tell me what you want."

Luria's breath hitches, and in an act of courage, she closes her eyes tightly, and announces

Luria: "I-I-"

A knock at the gate interrupts Luria, which makes the girl startle briefly, but she calms down again and lets out a relieved sigh.

We go to see who is knocking, and we come across a man, with blue hair, wavy, wearing a white outfit.
Shinji:"Excuse me. Here lives Emiya Shirou?"
