Along the Mion River, which divided Fuyuki City, ran a two-lane asphalt road, one of the city's main thoroughfares. But at this late hour, close to midnight, the road was deserted, a forgotten world enveloped in silence.
A black beast, its engine roaring, sped along the empty road.
"Hey, everyone, are we going too slow? Should I—speed up a bit?..." Illyasviel asked, a mischievous grin on her face as she gripped the steering wheel.
"Faster?! It's at 200 kilometers per hour!!!" Kiyohime, her face pale with terror, pointed at the dashboard, clinging to Haru's arm.
The rapidly blurring scenery outside filled her with unease.
"Just 200? That's nothing. I'm a student of Arianna-sensei, you know. My driving skills are exceptional," Illyasviel replied, her foot pressing down on the accelerator.
"Um, Haru—who is this Arianna-sensei...?" Kiyohime asked, turning to Haru, her voice strained.
"A lunatic who drives at 300 mph in city traffic. And she's never had an accident," Haru muttered, his teeth gritted as he recalled Erica Blandelli's—monstrous maid. He shouldn't have taken Illyasviel to the Campione! world. He was starting to regret it.
Saber, sitting in the passenger seat, her face a mask of nervous anticipation, forced a smile. "A—remarkable teacher, Illyasviel."
