Wales England, in the little town where Nekane and Negi live.
"Nekane Onee-san, how is your condition in Wales, you are okay right?" Nekane smiled happily, she once again received a letter from Negi. After the last few weeks Negi didn't send received any letters to her.
As a true Brocon not receiving a news from her beloved little brother was like not breathing for her. That's why to relieved her 'Negi energy' she kisses Negi's photo. And not just that at first Nekane thought of smelling Negi's clothes that she kept secretly, but Nekane think that if she was caught by someone else doing that, then the reputation of a good girl that ahe had made would be destroyed instantly, so ahe held back and chose to kiss only Negi photo.
Everyone around Nekane knows that Nekane is a brocon, so if she kissed Negi's photo it wouldn't look too weird. But if she is caught smelling the smell of Negi's clothes, she will look very strange and perverted.
"This time I'll send you a photo too!" Negi said in the letter he send to Nekane.
"Ah, right in addition to the letter Negi also sent a photos, for me," Nekane said.
Nekane looked at several photos in her hand. She can see Negi who have a photo session at the Kyomizu temple with all his students, a photo of Negi with the Emiya family. And the photo when Negi poses with Shirou in Eva's villa.
Shirou and Negi's photo of course made Nekane feel surprised, because Shirou's face was very similar to Nagi's. One difference is that Shirou is much more handsome than Nagi.
On the photo it says 'my first photo with Shirou-Nii'.
"Is this Emiya Shirou that Negi often talks about why his face is so similar to Nagi-san?" Nekane began to feel suspicious, because Shirou's resemblance to Nagi is too strange to be called a coincidence. "D-don't tell me this Emiya Shirou is Mikoto-san's son with Nagi-san? But that was impossible because Nagi-san is very loyal to .. "
"Nekane-Nee-san!" Shouted Anya. "Has the letter from Negi already arrived!"
The arrival of Anya made Nekane stop her words. Because Nekane didn't want Anya to know what she was going to say.
Nekane forced a smile in front of her, she didn't expect Anya arrival at all. Because for Nekane Anya is Nekane's biggest rival in winning Negi's heart. Because Anya is the girl that Negi loves the most, besides herself, of course.
"The letter from Negi already arrived, Anya," Nekane said. "In fact, he also sent some photos."
Anya became curious after hearing from Nekane that Negi sent a photo. Because she wanted to see Negi and his students.
"Where is the photos! I want to see it!" Anya said.
"Be patient Anya," Nekane said. "Wait until I finish reading the letter from Negi."
"There is still a final exam for the semester, but once the exam ends then the summer vacation will start and like I said in my previous letter I will go home to meet Onee-san and Anya!"
"Yaaay! Negi is coming home!" Anya said while jumping in joy.
Nekane also felt so happy that Negi would come home, she really miss sleeping with Negi once again and hugged him tightly. It has been more than 6 months that she could not hug Negi while sleeping, making her sleep feel bad.
Actually Nekane really wanted to go to Mahora to apply for a job as a teacher too so that she could be close to Negi.
But unfortunately her contract as a teacher at the magic school is still long, so Nekane can only surrender and be patient waiting for Negi to return to Wales after his assignment as a teacher at Mahora is over.
When Nekane was about to fold a letter from Negi, he accidentally dropped the photos sent by Negi. Nekane bent over and took the photos one by one, assisted by Anya. And when Nekane was about to take the last photo, the direction was reversed. she flipped the photo and what Nekane saw in the photo made Nekane had a heart attack and she fainted instantly.
"Gyaaa! Nekane-Onee-san!" Anya immediately grabbed Nekane's body which was about to fall to the ground quickly. Anya, who was still holding Nekane's body, happened to see the photo that had fallen from Nekane's hand. But the reaction she showed was different from Nekane's, her face looked really annoyed. And the photo of Negi who is currently in her hand looks creased because Anya is holding it too hard.
In the photo, which is almost damaged, there is a photo of Negi being kissed on the cheek by Fuka and Fumika. Negi's face looks red as well as Fuka and Fumika. That photo made Nekane pass out and that photo also made Anya look angry.
"I thought in Japan he would do his job seriously as a teacher , because Negi is like," Anya saud. "But seeing this photo, it looks like Negi is even busy flirting with other girls even though he already has me!"
Anya, who is currently full of anger, has made up her mind. When the summer holidays have started, she will go to Japan to meet Negi and bringing him back to Wales. She will not allow her childhood friend and the boy she likes is approached by the other girls.
"Just wait, Negi!" Anya said with a very scary look. "I will not let you be taken by another girl! And I will also find that damned twins and the person who took that photo! And teach the three of them some lesson!"
In Mahora, the Narutaki sisters suddenly felt a goosebumps and fear. Whereas Kazumi who was the photographer of the photo could feel a bad feeling that something bad would happen to her in the summer vacation.

Japan, Mahora Gakuen.
"Uhmmm, the first semester is almost over and only a week until the final semester exams," Negi said. "Because of that, I will hold a small test and the results of this test will be combined with the results of the last midterm exam because if not class 3-A will return to the last rank, everyone understands right?"
"Yes ahahahahahahahahahaha!" some of the students in Negi's class, who were mostly teenage girls who were a bit strange and excited about themselves, even laughed out loud and did not take Negi's words seriously.
Of course Rin, Sakura, Luvia, Arturia, Ayaka, Chisame, Setsuna, Mana, Natsumi, Evangeline, Chachamaru, Satomi, Satsuki, Asuna, Ako and Shirou didn't react like their other friends. Bcause they can be said as a normal students and don't like to get excited by themselves.
"Don't laugh!" Shouted Ayaka. "Even though at the middle semester our class is in the first place! But now in the end of this semester why did our class scores drop to the bottom places!"
"Don't thinking about it too much class rep, the most important thing right now in our class right now is that class 3-a is ranked first as the most popular attractions in Mahora!" Kazumi said.
"Our class is great, we win the first place," Haruna and Yuuna said.
" What so great about it!" Ayaka said. "Our class is win the first place because we using a real ghost in the Horror House that we created!"
"Ahahahahaha Sayo-chan is very helpful!" Kazumi said. "Because of her hard work our class have a lot of visitor!"
"Kazumi, don't tell me that you can see that ghost," Ayaka said. "Because you said her name earlier!"
"Well, you can say that," Kazumi said. "Because Sayo-chan is sitting on the empty bench next to me! That's why I can see Sayo-chan because it's been more than 2 years I've been sitting next to Sayo-chan."
Almost all the students in class 3-a were horrified by Kazumi. They don't realize that all this time there are ghosts in class 3-a, Fumika and Fuka are shivering with fear because they know there are ghosts in their class.
"It is only natural if our class scores is go down class rep," Sakurako said. "Because Chao is no longer in our class."
"Well, the hole Chao left was too big. Because her grades are always the best in Mahora," Misa said.
"In this class only two people who can match Chao grades, Rin-san and Hakase," Madoka said. "And unfortunately the two of them are not as good as Chao's, fortunately this year there is Shirou-kun who has as good as Rin-san, so our class scores are not at the bottom!"
"Cough without Chao our class scores have indeed dropped considerably," Ayaka said. "But at least we have to do better to push our class rankings to the first place once again!"
"Nice speech class rep," Negi said. "But don't push your self too much that was no good, and even if our class rank not in the first place at least our class is ranked at the 4th places. Studying is indeed a boring thing, but the things we learn through studying will become something useful someday. Moreover, any knowledge as long as it is not an evil knowledge deserves to be studied, maybe you will feel lazy or bored when you learning something. But there is no such thing likd a useless knowledge, so be patient when studying and don't forget to pray so that you can concentrate more, while studying. "
All the girls who liked Negi blushed including Ayaka. all the excited students cheered Negi because of the wise words he spoke.
As for Shirou, he could only sigh his breath because Negi imitated the words that he said a few days earlier.
'Sigh, it look like Negi remember my advice, huh,' Shirou said. 'But he shouldn't repeat my words like that in front of everyone in the class, I feel so embarrassed because of it!'
'Aih, poor Shirou, he must be feeling embarrassed because Negi repeated the advices he gave few days ago,' Rin said.
"Negi-Sensei!" Kazumi said. "You're very authoritative!"
"Eh, is-is that so?" Negi said.
"Yup, you are!" Yuuna said. "When you first came to this class, I thought that you would be a problematic teacher!"
"But after being taught for almost half a year by you, I can see that Negi-kun's attitude is very mature," Ako said.
"That's right compared to six months ago, you are less nervous and can teach us all better!" Misa said.
"Ouch you guys, no need to praise me like that," Negi said. "I can be brave thanks to all of you who always support me and Shirou-Nii who always tell me the right thing when I do wrong and reckless things."
'So he changed completely because of Shirou-kun!' The cheeleader trio said.
'No wonder he looks so mature, apparently he taught by Shirou-kun!' Gu Fei said.
'Ara if Shirou-kun taught Negi-Sensei to be a better person that was makes sense,' Chizuru said.
"Oh, yes, for the five members of the baka ranger, I hope you will stay in class after school is over," Negi said. "I will provide additional lessons for all of you!"
"Whaaaaaat!" Asuna, Yue, Makie, Kaede and Gu Fei were in shock. The five of them didn't think that they would have to take some extra class.
"Your grades are too bad," Negi said. "So no matter if you like it or not I have to give additional classes for the five of you otherwise our class scores will drop in the final exams."
The baka rangers could only surrender, if the five of them had bad grades in final exam. Obviously, their classmates would punish all five of them. And that was not something the want to have.
