The Lesser Grail pulsed with an intense, golden light, its form obscured by the brilliance, until it resembled nothing more than a radiant sphere of energy.
The sphere, hovering beside Haru, vibrated, sending tremors through the air.
"A++ rank Knight of Owner and Indestructible? What a generous gift," Haru murmured, dispelling the black aura that had clung to his hand.
He turned his gaze towards Saber, who stood beneath a nearby tree. Her usual, warrior-like posture seemed—softer now, her form radiating a subtle—vulnerability.
"Here. You've become a bit of a mess." He walked over to her, offering a handful of tissues.
"Thank you," Saber murmured, taking the tissues and wiping the tears from her eyes.
"So, what are your thoughts? After speaking with Lancelot," Haru asked, noticing her slightly red and swollen eyes.
A bright smile, like the morning sun breaking through the clouds, lit up Saber's face. "I'm—grateful. To have such a loyal knight."
"I'm happy for you both," Haru said, his voice sincere.
