Moments ago.
Suppressing the moan that was caused by the meal, Rin silently focused on eating. Though, she started hearing faint voices, which led to her thinking that she's hallucinating due to how good the food is.
"What is this connection, hm?!"
"This is... Outside the universe..?"
"W-what's this?"
"The mortal world..."
Soon, four visages appeared in her mind. Each of them are almost identical to each other, with one of them being a young girl. For some unknown reasons, Rin felt that they're extremely familiar.
When the visages became clear, all five of them went silent for a second. Then, they let out dumbfounded voices as they realized who are each other...
"Ah?"
"Eh?"
"E-eh?!"
"...What?"
"WHAT IS THIS?!"
Subconsciously, she slammed the table to express her surprise. The others noticed her sudden outrage and was concerned, but Shiro spoke up first.
"It is the Second True Magic... or at least a part of it. That magic isn't called 'Parallel Worlds Operation' for nothing."
Strangely enough, Rin felt that Shiro also saw the other four visages inside her mind. Feeling his gaze, the first one who "replied" to him is the one with a calm voice.
"The one who can peer through space and time... Your origin is foreign, I see." She paused for a moment before directing her intent to the woman besides him. "You're from here, yet you're not welcomed? What a strange duo..."
With the use of magecraft, Castoria heard everything and replied, "How is it in Kur, goddess?"
"So you know of me." She replied.
Suddenly, another voice shouted, "IT'S YOU?!?!"
"Hm... IT'S YOU?!?!"
Just as how stand users recognize each other, the two of them realized their true identities in that moment.
"Why did I form a connection with you?!"
"I didn't ask for this, too!" The previous calm voice from earlier exclaimed.
"No, I definitely won't accept this!"
"So do it!"
""HMPH!""
During this infighting, Rin felt dizzy and fell on Shirou's shoulders. The latter caught her and saw her bad complexion.
"Tohsaka, are you alright?" He asked.
"Mn... No, the world's spinning..!"
As she said that, she tugged Shirou's clothes tighter. Due to that, he got startled for a second before reacting.
"Her mana got emptied all in one go." Saber accurately pointed out the problem. "She doesn't have enough energy to sustain that 'connection'."
"Mana exhaustion? Alright, I'll bring her-"
"No need. Catch."
Shiro threw a medicine container towards Shirou. When the latter opened it and saw its contents, he found it similar to the fever medicines that he bought for Taiga.
"This is..?"
"Mana pills. It's good stuff to relieve sudden mana exhaustion."
Inside his [Dimensional Storage], there had been way too many items. Either, they came from the remains of the Incubators, Random Spins, magical items from Aincrad, or some stuff that he bought in the points store.
The [Mana Pills (SR)] are one of the rewards that he got. It is made from the Incubators' civilization and utilizes the mana present in plants and other forms of mana containers. It is a rare item that was produced to reward Magical Girls in a technological world, though they also use it for the common folk who works for their civilization.
That is, the ordinary people of their races.
"Two pills is enough for her case."
"Alright." Shirou replied.
Then, he took out two pills and helped Rin take them. Once she drank water, the strong dizziness slowly disappeared and her vision went back to normal. She can also feel her od in the magic circuits regenerate at a moderate pace, surprising her once more.
After all, only when the clock reaches 1 AM would her mana peak, which fully regenerates all the lost mana during the day. At this time, magi are also stronger than usual.
This is also the reason why she summoned Archer that late at night.
"Hey, you two. Can't you see that she couldn't handle this well?"
Upon hearing another familiar voice speak up, the other two stopped arguing. They are goddesses, yes, but the one that serves as the core of their 'connection' is a mortal.
Ashamed of their blunder, they blushed as they kept quiet.
"Grown ups can also fight like this? So childish." The young girl spoke this time, and when she did, Rin's eyes widened.
"You..! What's your name?" She asked.
"Tohsaka Rin, the heir of a prestigious magi lineage! My father is about to join the Holy Grail War and become a great magus!"
Blankly, Rin placed back the glass of water back to the table. Meanwhile, Saber continued on eating this godly breakfast after Shiro gave her seconds.
She couldn't notice anything else as her mind got trapped inside another illusion, with her having a fun outing with the Round Table Knights...
The other couple, on the other hand, made their own world once more. They already knew the general information behind Rin's miracle so they weren't worried that much.
Although, Castoria also received her own miracle that allowed her to recover more of her real power. This allowed her to...
Poof-!
A smoke effect appeared from nothingness. Once it got cleared out, a petite girl was revealed.
"Oh~ It worked again!" She exclaimed. "Hehe... We look a better match now..."
Seeing this, Shiro's right eye twitched as he recalled this girl... Castoria's mischievousness. Whenever she feels it, she transforms into her other selves, such as Lartoria, Artoria Alter, Saber Lily, and so on.
She deftly hugged his right arm while she laid down her head against it.
"Shiro, I missed you."
"...Me too."
Unfortunately for the ones with connection to Rin, they can see what her vision sees. Meaning, they saw this couple act all love-dovey... and they're all the single bunch.
""Normies should just explode..."" The two goddesses said at the same time.
""How do we turn this off?"" The young Rin and the other space commander asked as they deadpanned.
Luckily, Rin followed her instincts and disabled this 'connection', preventing this from sucking out her mana again. Though, she was greeted with that sight the moment she'd finished her stuff.
"Emiya-kun!"
"Yes?"
Just as she was talking, Taiga entered the house together with Raiga.
"Let's go on a date today!"
"Shirou~! Guess who-" As soon as Taiga heard it, the words that are about to come out stopped all by itself. "EHHH?!?!?!"
Shirou heard this voice and had a hunch that things will be even more hectic. Well... it did.
"Why is Tohsaka here? Did she spend the night here? Most importantly... SHE REALLY CONFESSED TO YOU?!"
"I-I didn't!" Rin shouted with a blush on her face.
However, it didn't matter to Taiga. She thought that the "school flower" got embarrassed that led to her saying it.
"What about Sakura?!"
"Fuji-nee?!"
Looking at the lively scene in front of him, Raiga thought about the girl who kept coming here for the past few months, which received his full support as a potential daughter-in-law.
"Oho. That jou-chan has to work harder."
While everything is happening, the couples are detached from it. As for Saber...
Let's say that she's enjoying her good food right now.
