3rd Pov
Neo teleported with them to their residence in Fuyuki city, they were greeted by the scene of Artoria finishing up the 27th plate of food while having moist eyes. " My Neo! That bitch took my Neo from me!!!", she said in a dramatic way and then continued eating her food while swearing, Scathach's eyebrows twitched furiously looking at Artoria while Elsa came up with three new plates of food.
For a moment Neo paused not understanding what was happening,' Did I teleported in some parallel reality? ', he thought before shaking his thoughts away. It didn't take long for the three to sense them. His teleportation ability had an effect of lowering their presence for a few seconds after they teleported, it was to avoid a scene when Neo teleported in a public place.
" Neo!! My Neo!!", Artoria quickly ran to him and hugged him, then she started sniffing his smell and her face turned into anger as she glared at Medea and said," How dare you bitch cover my lovely Neo's smell with your dirty smell!!", Medea frowned looking at her, she floated nonchalantly inside the room and ignoring her she said," Elsa dear, it seems you have made a lot of delicious food, let your sister have the taste of them as well ".
Elsa just nodded after which she gave a bow to Neo," Welcome back, Master. I have made a lot of dishes today! Have a taste of them as well! ", she said before departing to take a new tray of dishes, meanwhile Neo looked at the small hill of plates with a bit of awe and then glanced at petite Artoria who hugging him without any bulge in her stomach, it would seem that her appetite had surpassed mortality and had achieved Godhood.
" You two, take a seat as well ", he said glancing at Medusa and Sakura, the former quickly sat on a chair silently while the latter nervously sat on the chair. Medea leisurely floated in the mid-air not minding to take a seat, while Artoria glared at her only for her mood to lighten by Neo's soothing touch. ' Neo- I want to stay by your side forever ', she thought, she had overestimated self not realizing how obsessed she was with Neo, not staying by his side caused her to have overdramatic mood swings.
" Neo you have troubled your Sensei too much by letting her take care of this girl, what did you even do? Not long after she returned she started breaking down things in anger, thankfully I had my disciple Elsa to help me with it ", she explained tiredly, as taking care of Artoria was very troublesome for her considering she couldn't just beat her into submission.
" Anyway who are these two girl? Weren't you after just one? Fufu my disciple you have been getting a lot lusty as of later, it would seem I would have to properly discipline you", she said while licking her lips, Neo smirked and said," Sure, how about we have a spar after eating the food?", he sat on the chair while Artoria quickly claimed his lap, while hugging his neck, her expression had became calmer and colder as her petite body leaned against his chest.
' So comfortable, if I can get stronger then I will take Neo for myself ', a dangerous thought passed through her mind, fortunately it didn't stay for long as she discarded her rebellious idea, she was Neo's queen and her most loyal knight, it was her duty to trample upon his enemies and accompany him by being his side, she can't think of rebelling against him.
" Hello, I am Ma- Sakura, just Sakura", suddenly Sakura stood up and introduced herself, Medusa beside her tilted her head wondering if she should introduce herself, in the end she decided to abstain as her only goal was to serve her new master and ensure Sakura's safety, she didn't care about the other women present here.
Elsa who was finished arranging the dishes, calmly sat on the table not a bit tired and said," Anyway, I hope you like the food I made!", Sakura just nodded and sat back while slightly embarrassed not knowing how to fit in this unknown atmosphere. ' So his name is Neo ', she thought glancing at Neo who was eating food with one hand and caressing Artoria with other.
As a master in Holy Grail War she could tell that everyone here except the white haired woman with ample assest-*ahem*, were heroic spirits in some weird incarnated form leaving out Neo. Anyway after they finished up eating the food, Sakura finally explained her circumstances and ended up becoming the second maid of the household.

Sakura Pov
My name is Sakura, I don't like my surname so I decided to not to use it after becoming free. It was almost foreign to me, becoming free from the clutches of Matou family, grandpa and Niisan after years of torture. I even had lost any hope of becoming free and didn't even care anymore about it accepting my fate.
Years ago my father and mother abandoned me, they left me with Grandpa while spewing out words it was for my best. I cried, I begged but with a cold expression on my father's face he abandoned me, even mother didn't prevent him. After I was adopted by Grandpa the only thing in my mind was to make my parents accept me again.
I thought I had done some mistake so they were punishing me, I decided to be a good girl and make them forgive me. Unfortunately after what I experienced left me broken, Grandpa forcefully took me to a dark room, I was horrified to see millions of disgusting bugs crawling all over the place and despite my protest and me begging him he threw me on top of all the bugs.
I could still remember the first time the bugs tore through my skin and started eating my muscles and making me their host, it was painful, extremely painful, I kept screaming for help, for forgiveness but the only thing I got was a smirk on Grandpa's face, who said," Don't worry it won't take long for them to fuse with you, Haha!".
For days they tortured me, my wounds healed up and my hair color changed, in the end I was left broken and my purity was gone. At that moment I felt extreme resentment towards my parents for abandoning me, for pushing me to this hell, towards Niisan who didn't even bothered to see me during our parting. But what could I do? In the end I could only be tortured by these bugs.
Thankfully it wasn't as painful as previously or I got used to pain, rather I felt a tinging feeling when they crawled over me, it was disgusting, I knew something was wrong when I felt my body heating up but I couldn't do anything. I was powerless and weak, how could I go against Grandpa?
" Don't worry I will save you, I promise you-Sakura I will save you!", his words were like the last ray of hope for me, I believed and waited patiently to be saved. I thought Uncle could save me, take me back to Mama and Papa, so I decided to be a good girl and wait even If I was tortured daily, I didn't scream, If I will be a good girl Mama and Papa will definitely save me right?
But in the end it was a dream, held by the naive me. It was broken the moment I saw the dead body of the Uncle rolling down the stairs and being devoured by the bugs. " For going against Grandpa, you deserve this ", I muttered knowing well how harsh my words were, but I had given all the hope after he died. I thought he could save me, but in the end I realized it was foolish, there was no escaping Grandpa.
After Uncle's death, I met Niisan, he was abroad for studies and the moment I met him, I felt a new hope igniting in me," Don't worry Sakura! I will protect you! You can count on your Niisan!!", his smile was bright, he was radiating or I was too dull that his presence seemed so bright to me. Niisan treated me kindly, always helping me and going against Grandpa to prevent me from being tortured from bugs.
I though I could live like this, after all I had Niisan, but for some reason after a few weeks his attitude completely changed towards me. He looked at me with unconcealed anger and hatred and started bullying me, I thought he was just being mischievous but as he said more hurtful words, and harmed me more and more,I couldn't hold back my emotions and I broke into tears asking him why he changed.
" You fucking bitch! How dare you steal my position?! I was destined to become Matou family's successor, but because of you I lost! I lost the opportunity! I hate you Sakura! I hate you!!!", he said. I understood it was my fault, I was born with a superior Magecraft talent while Shinji had none, he was the rightful heir but I stole his position. At that moment I felt apologetic and pity towards Niisan.
But my days were only becoming worse, Grandpa came along with an unknown man and said he will help me deal with tingling feeling. I thought he was finally help me, maybe Grandpa realized that I was being good girl and won't be harsh on me, but my dreams once again shattered, as the man who Grandpa claimed to be his friend raped me.
In the end I laid on the ground while bugs inside me started devouring my flesh making it more painful for me. Once he had left I had though the nightmare will be gone, I won't have to go through that disgusting feeling again. "Niisan! What are you doing!", I said in panic and Niisan tore off my clothes and clutched my neck.
"Shut up! Remember it! From now onwards you will obey me unconditionally! ", he said with a similiar look on his face as of that man, my eyes trembled and I was filled with fear, I continued begging him and asking him for forgiveness but he didn't listened to me, he raped me as well, venting out his lust while I felt only pain from the bugs devouring me.
He was same, as Grandpa, as others, he too didn't loved me. I hated him, but I couldn't go against him, he threatened me and I gave up, with the years to come I gave up all hope, my body was sullied again and again by that bastard, whom I considered my Niisan. My sister didn't came to save me, but as if I didn't wanted to leave out my last spark of hope, I never threw away the ribbon she gave me.
My life was dull and meaningless, until I met Senpai. His unbrekable will, his personality, everything attracted me, I even joined archer club so I could observe him and once he was injured I decided to gather up my courage and meet him, in coming two years my situation became a bit better, but in the end it too was a wishful dream.
Shinji kept raping me, and Senpai never noticed the pain I was under, I wished he would notice my pain, hug me, sooth me, but nothing such happened, instead he got closer to my sister and I understood he too didn't loved me. I just laughed at myself and returned back to mansion, it was another day when I was watering the plant when some unknown people with Rider appeared.
The man, Neo explained me he was there to help according to a deal he made with Rider, I was confused and I wanted them to run away lest they get tortured by Grandpa as well, I didn't wanted them to suffer like me. But after what happened was a miracle, one that changed my life.
