FATE/Probability

Chapter 87: Chapter 83: Transfer Student



Standing next to a fallen rin, he gasped for air, the mana escaping from his skin in a faint mist, while the scent of charred flesh filled his nostrils. The most important period had passed and he was sure that by the time Rin woke up she would be back to her rational self and not put herself at risk by trying to do suicidal acts like this.

< I have to get stronger and stronger in combat if I have to protect her even from herself.>

Any outsider witnessing this would ask simple questions like, why does he need to protect her?, And what does he mean by protecting her from herself? Or the most important question who is he to do this for her? Even if he could hear this he would smile and say 

"You will not understand."

And then carry on doing what he wants. The only path for talentless people like him to have a chance to beat a genius at anything is to specialise in that. His being able to knock her out was a matter of luck and a surprise factor, in a life-and-death struggle he had a 50-50 chance to kill her but trying to knock her out would make that chance less than 10 per cent.

The fortune in this ill-fated interaction was that he had succeeded in his stupid undertaking. Trying to copy Mana Burst with his pitiful mana quantity, only basic reinforcement magecraft and current state was nothing short of an elaborate attempt to kill himself, but he succeeded in some form. Well, this was not a true Mana Burst as the one from whom he copied it was still a little girl when she was practising that.

Even then performing a copy of the physical effects a simplified and dumbed-down copy of mana brust has roasted his circuits in good measure and allowed him to take down Rin in a surprise move and it had also solidified his grasp on reinforcement magecraft and allowed him to apply it on his body.

After this incident, the duo had a heart-to-heart talk and finally rin decided to go to the clock tower. They decided to hoodwink the priest by making a recommendation letter from Waver being sent to the tohsaka mansion and making her go to Clock Tower to represent her family. She had decided to become capable enough to stand against the priest if needed and then search for answers, shirou had convinced her by saying stuff like her death would end in the end of her lineage as she was the sole heir.

He had missed the hidden and complicated emotions in Rin`s eyes when he had mentioned that, rather he thought that he had convinced her with his reasoning while in reality, she had decided that at least their family would live through sakura even if she died trying to go to the root of this mystery.

As they talked, shirou also revealed that he also gets flashes of the future and when they talked about the upcoming grail war rin was shocked. she knew about the war and was prepared for it as It is her family`s aim but she expected it to happen when she was well into her 30s.

Kirei has misled her about this rather he likely planned to tell her the truth late as to watch her panicking expression. Now she also understood some of the boy`s pov. Now with another reason to go to the clock tower, she reaffirmed her decision.

Finally, Melvin pretended to be Shirou's maternal relative, which had some hiccups with the keen old man Raiga. However, Melvin`s uncommon white hair, similar to that of the Einzbern family, as well as the noble grace and arrogance inherent to his behaviour due to his upbringing came in handy. The Fujimura knew that Kiritsugu`s wife came from a German aristocratic family, and they were set in their old ways, so finally, Melvin was accepted. 

Then he sent various legal documents about being the official legal heir to various things due to him being the last living member of the family. so he is expected to be on par with the standards expected of him as an aristocrat this included being taken to Europe for his schooling and career building.

Finally, after being hugged by the Fujimura family, shirou went into the fuyuki airport, accompanied by a pair of men in black suits. Looking at his back taiga while holding back tears shouted

"Remember to reach out! If anyone bullies you, let me know. I'll handle it."

The tigress of fuyuki had made both Melvin`s men and shirou sweat when this news was broken to her. After various events, it ended up with 2 of the regular guards facing her in the dojo and she had beaten them black and blue to vent her frustration. This had shamed the guard's leader a lot.

Rin left fuyuki a few hours back with one of the Weins family butlers acting as a proxy for the clock tower, by coming to pick her up. This fooled the priest, as this was a half-truth, as Waver was a lord in the name, so him being the one who had sent a letter to the Tohsaka family made it legit.

Finally, shirou boarded the plane leaving behind the peaceful and quiet chapter of his life and stepping into the unknown via the clock tower the cesspool of all idiotic behaviour of magus and their associate.

….

The duo from fuyuki were easily admitted into the clock tower, still renting a dorm room was like selling a kidney to a normal magus. Still using her ever mysteriously decreasing assets of her family rin booked a room and shirou used the remnants of money kiritsugu left for him. The money the magus killer had left would be enough for him to complete his study at Clocktower but that was nothing compared to the expense he needed to buy catalysts for practising his craft.

Waver had arranged for them to study in the Department of General Fundamentals 1st even when they were members of the faculty of modern magecraft. After being prepared for the 1st class shirou left his dorm room and found that Rin had left as her door was closed. After wandering around the building a bit he realised that he was likely lost and also didn't know the path to his destination.

There he met the smiling man called Krishna, the dorm supervisor who happily decided to guide him to the classroom written on his schedule. The man took him to the building navigating the complex and ancient system of buildings that made up the clock tower`s educational complex on the outskirts of London.

He walked through the crowded halls of the aged stone and looked around at the crowd of children his age and even those nearly half a decade older moved around the corridor. As he walked through the corridor a teen with a dark complexion and messy blond hair bumped into him.

This caused the man to pause and caused one of the 3 scantily clad women with a veil and Middle Eastern features to fall and drop the folder she was holding containing paper documents, which immediately scattered. As if this sound was thunder the man turned around and scanned Shirou's figure like a hawk.

As soon as he took in the boy`s features his eyes were filled with disdain and then rage, glancing at the small crowd around them he released a smile full of contempt and said 

"Trash should look for a bin to dispose of itself rather than sit on the road to be stepped on by a person."

Then he glanced at the fallen woman and then turned to the other one beside her and said 

"Dispose of the useless one in the workshop and get me a better one."

With that, he turned around and walked out of the hall. One of the women picked up the file and pulled up the fallen woman by her scuff. Then, they all hurried out to follow the blond magus.

Still confused by this accident, the boy reached the designated class. While walking, he repeatedly groped his left waist, searching for the blade handle that was not there. The gaze of that weird guy thoroughly spooked him. As soon as the man locked his gaze on him, the hairs on his arms stood on their ends. He picked up the minute scent of ozone and felt like his body was building up static.

(a/n: and guys guess who this lil bitch was. And I have a poem for you guys. I wrote the 2nd verse after I found the 1st verse on Reddit.

"Get folded like a chair,

 Turned into stone by a stare.

 Let a girl suck all your blood

Decide to make contact with the mud ♫

♫Dumb ways to die

So many dumb ways to die

Dumb ways to di-i-i-ie

So many dumb ways to die ♫

♫let your ego guide you into provoking a witch.

 Simping for an ungrateful bitch.

Fully trusting a shady priest,

Running away from a madness-enchanted Hercules♫

♫Dumb ways to die

So many dumb ways to die

Dumb ways to di-i-i-ie

So many dumb ways to die ♫"
