"The time outside only passed about two hours," Asuna said. "The time inside the villa is really much faster."
"Shirou-kun how long have you been training in that villa?" Konoka asked.
"About a month," Shirou answered. "And what's great is that we won't grow old no matter how long we stay there."
"What a good villa!" Asuna said. "Eva-chan, if I don't have enough time for study, can I study in your villa?"
"Yeah, aru!" Gu Fei said. "If I study at Evangeline's villa, it can save a lot of time!"
"I don't mind," Evangeline said. "But staying too long in my villa can make you mentally exhausted, the worst you can go crazy!"
"Geez!" said Asuna and Gu Fei who were surprised to hear Evangeline's answer.
"Doesn't make the body age, but instead makes mental fatigue," Rin said. "What a strange magic tool!"
"Is that how you talk to my magic tool, even though you yourself spent more time than Shirou and that boy! To practice your magic." Said Evangeline.
"Uuukh!" Rin said with a reddened face.
After Shirou, Rin, Negi and the others left Evangeline's log house, Chachamaru told Evangeline.
"Master, you look lonely. Is it because the guests have gone home?"
"Shut up Chachamaru!" Said Evangeline. "All the kid that disturbing me has finally left, why I must feeling lonely!"
Evangeline then paused for a moment, because she felt something coming into Mahora Gakuen.
"Hmm," Evangeline said.
"Master," said Chachamaru. "What wrong?"
"It's OK," Evangeline said. "I just feel a little bad feeling, that's all."

In the apartment where Ayaka and her roommate live.
Ayaka had just returned from shopping in Shinjuku, and when she arrived at the corridor leading to her apartement she could hear the commotion that was clearly coming from the apartment where she lived.
"Chizu-nee!" Kotaro said. "I want to take a shower alone!"
"Hohohoho," Chizuru said. "You can't! Kotaro-kun must take a bath with me!"
"Why my apartment is so noisy?" Ayaka said.
Ayaka then opened the door to her apartment, and shouted loudly.
"Chizuru! What kind of commotion you making!"
And right after Ayaka shouted, Kotaro who was running from Chizuru crashed into Ayaka right in the middle causing Ayaka's body to fall backwards.
"Eh, sorry!" said Kotaro who felt guilty for causing Ayaka to fall and faint.
"What wrong?" Chizuru asked.
"I accidentally bumped into this Onee-san who suddenly entered into the apartment," Kotaro answered.
"Kyaaa! Class rep!" Natsumi said.
Not long after, after Ayaka regained her consciousness.
"Who exactly this kid is!" Ayaka said. "Suddenly bump into me making me passed out!"
"Ayaka," Chizuru said. "Please calm yourself first."
"Even though I've already apologized." Kotaro said.
"How can I be calm knowing that there is an unknown little boy is in my apartment!" Ayaka shouted.
"This boy is Natsumi-chan little brother," Chizuru said. "His name is Murakami Kotaro."
"What?" Natsumi said.
"Eeeh!" Kotaro said.
"Your brother, right?" Chizuru said looking at Natsumi and Kotaro with a threatening face.
"Oh yeah, that's right!" Natsumi said that clearly felt threatened by Chizuru.
"Y-yes," said Kotaro, who felt the same way as Natsumi.
"Oh, so it's like that?" Ayaka said. "Forgive my impoliteness."
"Chizu-nee, why do you have to make such a random excuse!" Natsumi said in a whisper to Chizuru.
"Calm down, leave everything to me!" Chizuru said.
"Then why Natsumi brother is here?" Ayaka asked.
"He will start attending Mahora and have no place to stay, so he will stay with us for a while!" Chizuru answered.
"If that's the case, I don't mind either, he can lives here." Ayaka said.
"Hey, is this really Onee-san the same age as Natsumi-nee," Kotaro said. "She looks like an old aunty."
Ayaka banged her head on the floor because of Kotaro's words and quickly pinched Kotaro's cheek.
"How dare you call me auntie!" Ayaka said. "I'm only 15 years old to know!"
"Dont mind him class rep," Natsumi said. "He still a kid."
"Even though he's a kid! But that doesn't mean he can talk that rudely!" Ayaka said. "Compared to the gentle nature of Negi-sensei the nature of this kid is the opposite!"
"Onee-san is noisy!" Kotaro said.
"I think Kotaro-kun is quite polite, you know." Natsumi said.
"Never mind!" Ayaka said. "I'll let you live here! But don't make a fuss okay!"
Ayaka then goes to ofuro to get ready for a shower.
"To my surprise, Ayaka can accept Kotaro-chan well," Chizuru said. "I'm really grateful for Ayaka's innocence."
"Kotaro-kun I think the class rep isn't like aunties," said Natsumi. "She's the same age as me, you know."
"But then again, the one who looks like auntie is Chizu-nee." Kotaro said.
"What did you say?" Chizuru asked with a scary face.
"Hiii," said Natsumi.
"No, it's nothing," Kotaro said.
When Chizuru returned to the kitchen to continue cooking, Kotaro then whispered as quietly as possible to Natsumi.
"Chizu-nee is really scary, Natsumi-nee!"
"Right?" Natsumi said. "So try not to make her angry!"

Emiya's residence is in Shirou and Rin's room right after dinner.
Shirou and Rin decided to go straight to sleep because they both felt exhausted after a long training in Evangeline's Villa.
"Shirou, what have you been worried about all this time?" Rin asked.
"There have been a couple number of demon who entered into Mahora, and one of them is a middle-level demon that is quite strong." Shirou answered.
"That was a bad thing!" Rin said "Do you know where the demons are now?"
"Some of the low-level ones are in big ofuro that are near our school," Shirou said. "And the strongest one is walking towards an apartment complex not far from here."
"This is really bad!" Rin said "Because ofuro in this house is broken Sakura and the others are currently going to the big ofuro to take a bath!"
"Then, Rin," Shirou said. "You went to the big ofuro to see the condition of Sakura and the others, while Negi and I will go to the apartment complex to take care of that middle-level demon."
"Okay!" Rin said, quickly removing her pajamas and replacing them with the red long-sleeved shirt she used to wear. "I'll go first! You also wake up Negi quickly and take care of the demon!"

In the big Ofuro near the school complex, Asuna, Konoka, Setsuna, Sakura, Saber, and Luvia were bathing together.
"Thank God, there is a big ofuro in this school!" said Luvia.
"That's right," Asuna said. "It is troublesome to have to walk quite far here but it is truly commensurate with the enjoyment gained while in ofuro."
"They both really like to take a bath in ofuro, apparently," Saber said.
"Yup," Konoka said. "Asuna has a hobby of spending a long time in Ofuro while Luvia-san is a girl who really likes to keep her body clean."
"For me as long as I'm comfortable and clean, that's enough," Sakura said. "If it's too long in ofuro, it's also not good for the body."
"Your words are really right Sakura-san." Said Setsuna.
"Konoka, you and the others also took a bath here?" Said Yue who had just entered the ofuro together with Haruna, Asakura and Nodoka and Gu Fei who happened to meet with Asakura on the way to the bath.
"Yes," Konoka answered. "It's because Ofuro in Emiya's residence is being damaged."
"No wonder you all appear in here," Haruna said. "It's really a rare thing for you guys to bathe here after a big fire that caused the hostel where we live to catch fire."
"The thing is Ofuro in Emiya's residence is much wider and more natural than ofuro in college!" Asuna shouted at Haruna's words. "That's why we are lazy to come here if we don't have to!"
"Is that so ofuro in Emiya's residence?" Asked Nodoka.
"Eh, that's right," Sakura answered. "The Ofuro in Emiya's residence is the equivalent of Ofuro's in five-star hotels and inns."
"I also took a bath at Emiya residence once aru," Gu Fei said. "When Shirou-kun and Negi Bouzo took me to Emiya's residence after a group training!"
"Gu Fei you cheater!" Haruna said.
"Eeeeeh, all of you who live in Emiya residence are have a very nice live, huh!" Yue said. "You can enjoy five-star hotel facilities every day."
"Not just ofuro," Luvia said. "The quality of the rooms and cooking are also five-star, especially Shero's delicious food!"
"I envy them Yue, I'm so jealous! "Haruna said with tears flowing while hugging Yue very tightly.
"I know Haruna, I know!" Yue said. "But can you stop hugging me! My breath is tight because you hugged me!"
"You two really are like a comedian duo!" Kazumi said.
"Shut up, Asakura!" Yue said. "Haruna! Hurry and release your arms!"
Everyone laughed at Haruna and Yue's behavior which obviously invited a laughter. Snd when they were all complacent from laughing three slime who were part of the stealth group who entered the college suddenly expanded their bodies and wrapped all the girls there except Haruna.
Haruna, who had been hugging Yue, had fallen into the water because Yue had suddenly disappeared. Haruna immediately stood up then shouted.
"Yue! Why did you suddenly let go of my arms! I just fell!"
Haruna was really confused because Yue did not respond to her screams, she then looked around and Haruna found no one and no one. She was truly alone in that ofuro.
"Everyone?" Haruna said. "Yue! Nodoka! Everyone! Where are you guys?"
Haruna really made confused and frightened because the friends who bathed together with her suddenly disappeared.
In front of the big bath, Rin who had just arrived felt a bad feeling, and immediately entered the bath.
Rin did not find anyone when she entered the bath, she only found Saotome Haruna who was confused. And seeing Haruna's reaction, Rin knew that she was late.
"I'm really late!" Rin said "Hopefully Shirou isn't as late as me!"
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"So Shirou-nii," Negi said. "Why did Shirou-nii suddenly wake me up and Camo and then ask me to running like this?"
"There are middle and low level demon who have entered Mahora," Shirou said. "And I need your help to take care of the demon!"
"Eeeeeeeh!" Negi said. "Why didn't Shirou-nii tell me that before?"
"We only have a little time!" Shirou said. "It would be more efficient to talk about the problem while running to where the demon is!"
"So where is the demon now?" Camo asked.
"The apartment complex in front of us!" Shirou answered.
"The class rep is in danger," Negi said. "Because she lives in this apartment complex!"

"Ding Dong!" The doorbell in Ayaka's apartment rings right when Ayaka, Chizuru, Natsumi and Kotaro are having dinner together.
"There are guests, huh," said Natsumi. "At this time of the night."
"I'm done eating," Ayaka said. "I'll see who the guest is."
Ehen Ayaka opened the apartment door to see who came to visit her apartment late at night.
Ayaka saw a handsome old man wearing a long black coat and a black fedora.
"Who are you?" Ayaka asked with a suspicious look.
"Sorry, Miss, if I bother you at this time of night," said the old man. "But, I have something to do with a little boy named Kotaro who is in your apartment."
