"The organization [Yin Yang Road] is not fixed to any specific region; it is a transnational power.
In terms of strength, it's decent. Although it falls short compared to Japan's top-tier organizations, it still contains a few top-level Players whose names are known."
Speaking of Japan's top-tier organizations, Hayasaka Ai specifically glanced at Kisaragi Rin, implying that they already knew Kisaragi Rin had joined the Chiba Zoo.
Kisaragi Rin didn't mind this at all, even reaching out to scratch Hayasaka Ai's raised chin.
"..."
Ignoring Kisaragi Rin's actions, Hayasaka Ai turned her gaze toward Yukinoshita Yukino.
"Do you want to join the Shinomiya Family?"
Hayasaka Ai was only a maid; she did not yet have the authority to formally invite others to join.
Naturally, the idea of inviting Yukinoshita Yukino to join the Shinomiya Family belonged to Shinomiya Kaguya.
As for the reason?
It was simply because Shinomiya Kaguya, after her anger subsided, began thinking about how to scheme against Kisaragi Rin.
She was in Tokyo, and Kisaragi Rin was in Chiba.
The long distance was one thing, but Kisaragi Rin also didn't want to be associated with the Shinomiya Family, which left Shinomiya Kaguya without even a proper means of contact.
She couldn't possibly make Hayasaka Ai act as a carrier pigeon, could she?
For Shinomiya Kaguya, that would be an unbearable humiliation.
She then thought she could find someone familiar with Kisaragi Rin to become her subordinate. That way, she could naturally and subtly approach Kisaragi Rin under the guise of caring for her subordinate.
"This person shall be you!"
Yukinoshita Yukino, who had a deep connection with Kisaragi Rin and attended the same Soubu High!
You are merely a small family in Chiba; the Shinomiya Family could crush you ten thousand times over with a single shake, and the moment we open our eyes, you will rush forward like moths to a flame, begging to be our dogs.
"You will agree, Yukinoshita..."
Recalling the words of Young Miss Kaguya, Hayasaka Ai calmly awaited Yukinoshita Yukino's answer.
And Yukinoshita Yukino... she naturally turned her head directly toward Kisaragi Rin.
Hmm... Yukinoshita Yukino already understood that when she encountered something she didn't understand, she could trust Kisaragi Rin.
For such a major issue, she had even forgotten to ask Yukinoshita Haruno for her opinion.
"The Shinomiya Family is rife with factions and full of trouble. If you accept Shinomiya Kaguya's invitation, you will most likely be immediately placed into her camp.
Furthermore, Shinomiya Kaguya's status is somewhat problematic; it would be easy for you to be crushed if you join.
Unless you become an S-rank later, switching organizations will be virtually impossible."
Kisaragi Rin said this simply and directly.
Hayasaka Ai, who was already inextricably linked to Shinomiya Kaguya's interests and had no way to leave, replied: "..."
Scratching Hayasaka Ai's chin, Kisaragi Rin continued, wondering if Hayasaka Ai, having turned into a cat, would purr: "Besides, you don't need to feel regret about missing this chance to join a major power. Hmm... there is one Player organization right here in Chiba that is no less impressive than the Shinomiya Family, and I can recommend you join it."
"Eh!!!"
Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at Kisaragi Rin, only then recalling the deer she had seen in the Fate World.
"Miss Hayasaka, I refuse."
Any hesitation on her part would be a sign of disrespect toward Lord Kisaragi Rin.
Hayasaka Ai: "In that case, the discussion about the organization [Yin Yang Road] ends here."
Everyone here has powerful backing, so there's no need to overly worry about a single [Yin Yang Road].
As for what they intend to do by guiding Archer to destroy a world and create a Corrupted Holy Grail?
What does that have to do with Kisaragi Rin and the others?
Powers like [Takamagahara] will handle it.
Kisaragi Rin, looking at how he managed to live safely for eighteen years without knowing about the Supernatural, didn't feel that the Main World had any crisis that necessarily required him to save it.
Tucking away the white letter, Hayasaka Ai jumped a few times and left the Service Club through the window again.
"Is it troublesome to help me join that organization?"
Yukinoshita Yukino asked.
"It's not troublesome."
Kisaragi Rin shook his head. He was, after all, one of the six S-ranks of the Chiba Zoo, so arranging for someone to join was not an issue.
Moreover, Yukinoshita Yukino joining the Chiba Zoo might better align with Kisaragi Rin's interests.
The reason why?
When Kisaragi Rin took the job, he had already told Shikanoko Noko that he wanted to become the Zoo Director.
To become the Director, Kisaragi Rin not only needed the strength to defeat Shikanoko Noko but also had to possess a direct core team capable of controlling the Chiba Zoo.
"So what is that organization called?"
Yukinoshita Yukino asked, and then she heard Kisaragi Rin open his phone and send her a message.
Yukinoshita Yukino opened her phone to look, and it was navigation to a location.
And the navigation destination? Chiba Zoo?
"Go to this Chiba Zoo. In the Deer Garden, there is a deer wearing a pink hat. Just tell it that Kisaragi arranged for you to come."
Kisaragi Rin explained.
"So what is this organization called?"
Yukinoshita Yukino hadn't processed it yet, thinking Kisaragi Rin had only sent her a contact method.
"The name... is Chiba Zoo."
Kisaragi Rin was expressionless.
This organization name felt just like his previous Player nickname, Curly-Haired Baboon. Although they were very powerful, saying the name out loud always felt a bit embarrassing.
Hmm... he remembered a saying: "Are you a monkey that escaped from the zoo to make people laugh?"
"Chiba Zoo???"
---
Time returned to Mahiru Shiina pulling Yuigahama Yui as they left the Service Club.
"What's going on between Mahiru and Kisaragi?"
Having her hand held by Mahiru Shiina, Yuigahama Yui was distractedly pondering their relationship.
She had witnessed Mahiru Shiina's previous confession to Kisaragi Rin being rejected.
Although it was strange why Kisaragi Rin would reject such an Angel, for Kisaragi Rin, rejecting someone seemingly didn't require any reason.
Under Yuigahama Yui's observation, the rejected Mahiru Shiina showed no sad reaction and continued to act as the perfect Angel, just as usual. Yuigahama Yui had thought Mahiru Shiina had moved on.
But today, Mahiru Shiina's behavior clearly indicated that she was launching an attack once more.
And Kisaragi Rin's attitude was even more ambiguous. Why did Yuigahama Yui feel like he wasn't resisting?
Seriously, didn't you reject her before?
What's going on now?
If this were anyone else, Yuigahama Yui would definitely think he was a scumbag leading a girl on.
But Kisaragi Rin?
Yuigahama Yui couldn't figure it out at all.
So, did something happen between you two that I don't know about?
Yuigahama Yui was quite curious about this.
Just as she was about to sneak a peek at Mahiru Shiina, Mahiru Shiina directly asked her, "Yui, do you like Kisaragi?"
"What?"
Yuigahama Yui's already fragile defense system completely collapsed under this question.
Her brain crashed for two or three seconds.
Yuigahama Yui began to speed up, waving her hands frantically like a windmill as she spoke.
"How could that be? Kisaragi... I definitely don't like Kisaragi..."
"Why don't you like him? He's so outstanding."
Seeing steam practically rising from Yuigahama Yui's head, Mahiru Shiina found it truly amusing.
Yuigahama Yui's personality was too cute, and she was quite pleasant as a friend.
Mahiru Shiina had a high friendship for her. After spending time together, Yuigahama Yui was already a friend who allowed her to slightly lower her guard.
Regarding Kisaragi Rin, she suddenly felt like teasing this girl a little.
Hmm... the main reason was that several women in the apartment had already made breakthroughs in their relationships with Kisaragi Rin, so even if Yuigahama Yui now admitted to liking Kisaragi Rin, Mahiru Shiina had absolutely no need to worry.
"A reason, a reason..."
Yuigahama Yui couldn't articulate a reason; she realized she couldn't even name a flaw of Kisaragi Rin's.
"...There is no reason."
Her mind was blank. Yuigahama Yui only let out a sigh of relief when Hiratsuka-sensei's office appeared before her eyes.
