"I didn't know that I missed such a good thing..."
Recalling the taste of a big mac earlier, he cried out tears of joy. If not for him going to this store, he would've continued eating MREs since he's fine as long as it gives enough sustenance!
[Official Quest: Killing a Murderer]
Details: Ryuunosuke Uryuu is a hopeless human whose nature couldn't be changed. After a week, he will start killing children out of his vanity.
Objective: Kill the target before he kills his first victim.
Reward/s: 1,000 Soul Points, 1 Random Spell Card
"Hm..? Speak of the devil.", he thought as he recall thinking about this guy earlier. Shiro thought about killing this guy before returning, but he received this quest early on, so he has to die first before the other one.
Looking at the navigation arrow that appeared in his sight, he slowly strolled toward the destination.
*****
Inside the storage room of a certain convenience store, a man could be seen stacking up one boxes after another.
"Sigh... I'm bored to death."
Up until now, Ryuunosuke had been living a normal and boring life, or so he had thought. However, this all changed a week ago as he felt something awaken within him after seeing a cat brutally murdered by someone.
"Death."
He saw death as something... cool. The sight as a living being's life slowly gets sucked away from them is something that he finds interesting.
Suddenly, he heard someone breaking into the store and asked, "You're interested in death?"
"Wh-"
A stranger pointed out an M9 straight at him before pulling the trigger.
Bang!
A bullet went straight to his chest, with his blood spilling from it rapidly. It then spurted as a sign of his heart being ruptured due to the bullet.
"This is death? How cool..."
He slumped down to the ground as he lost his life. Moments after, a blazing flame appeared, burning his corpse to ashes.

Shiro walked out of the backdoor as the wind wall that he called forth disappeared. It is also the one responsible for making the kill as silent as possible.
As for the store manager, Shiro made him think that their part-timer resigned a day earlier. He was only allowed to do this as he didn't have enough mastery with Memory Manipulation.
Plus, it can only be done as he himself is much stronger than an ordinary human.
"A spell that can be insta-cast during emergencies is helpful."
Shiro stored the spell card as he tried his best to find the school where Shinji goes. Though, it is to be expected that it is not a menial task for him as he doesn't have something that could guide him. His sense of direction can sometimes be like this.
He stopped in one of the schools for a while before he asked Shinji through the chat panel.
[Private] Shiro: "Can you send me the map of this city? And I'm in front of a school, is this it?"
[Private] Shiro sent a photo.
[Private] Shinji: "No, but it's almost there."
[Private] Shiro: "Alright, I'll send the picture to you."
[Private] Shiro sent a photo.
[Private] Shiro: "Can you see it?"
[Private] Shinji: "Yes. You're actually in her school..."
[Private] Shiro: "Who's school?"
[Private] Shinji: "Rin-san."
[Private] Shiro: "Ah."
Knowing that the kid is starting to get depressed again, he changed his topic.
[Private] Shiro: Do you know when would Sakura arrive in your household?
[Private] Shinji: I recall my father mentioning this to me before. He said that an adopted sister of mine would arrive in the next 2 days.
'Two days.' Hearing this, Shiro already set up a rough draft of how he would complete the said mission. After all, vigilance is necessary against a 500-year-old monster in human skin.
[Private] Shiro: Alright. Let's meet up sooner so that we could go over more details.
*****
"Shiro-aniki!"
Shinji waved his hand as he saw Shiro enter the empty classroom. Closing the chat group panel, he then replied.
"You've really worked hard.", he said as he noticed how Shinji had entered the 1st Rank Aura Knight in the span of 7 days. He knew beforehand that the time between their worlds is different, but he was still surprised by this.
According to the knowledge that he has, a talented genius would take more than half a month before they complete their Mana/Aura saturation and officially step into the ranks. Shinji achieved this 8 days earlier, which speaks volume of his talent.
"W-well. I only did what I'd been doing before. I only discarded some things to focus on more important things."
Shinji looked away from him to hide the slight embarrassment on his face. To be honest, it was his first time being sincerely complimented.
'It feels good.', he thought.
"Don't be shy. In terms of hard work, you are comparable to Shirou. Give yourself some praise."
"A-anyways, here is the blueprint of our house."
Shiro sat at one of the desks beside Shinji before grabbing the blueprint. there, he could see the Matou household's mansion, from the 1st floor to the attic. There's also a deduced drawing of the basement in it.
"I've never been to the basement before so I've only guessed the general layout of it. The anime helped really well."
"Thanks. It'll definitely be a big help against him."
Though, he inwardly thought whether this is really a work of a 5th grader. After all, this blueprint is too detailed!
'A potential student that was led to the right path. Accepting him as a disciple, huh?'
When he first saw this guy, he felt as if he had experienced the same thing as before. This feeling of deja vu became even stronger when he saw him work that hard.
"On our side, we have the two of us. On Zouken Matou's side, there's him, the worms, and most probably the Tohsakas."
"The Tohsakas? We need to make sure that they're not present 2 days later."
"No need to worry about that. We'll just need to prepare some countermeasures if he does visit this place."
The two talked about the content of the anime & visual novel that they had played. From there, they have also inferred information that might be useful to the upcoming fight.
"I also asked Kuroneko before to send me his wiki page. Did you see it?"
"I saw it. His weakness is supposed to be the main worm hidden in the house?"
"Yep. That's the crucial point in this fight."
Even though Zouken Matou is very resilient and is close to having an immortal body, he had many flaws such as the decay of his body and soul. Most importantly, he would die if the main worm gets killed as he wouldn't have any place to revive after his soul on the blood bugs is obliterated.
To add on, his main worm is so weak that Shinji prior to his knight practice could destroy that into mush.
"Before the main worm went to Sakura's heart, it should be hidden somewhere else. What do you think?" Shiro said, recalling the 'Heaven's Feel' route of Fate.
"You mean, the places where he might've hidden the worm? It should be in these 5 places."
Shinji pointed out 5 areas, in which he emphasized that the study might be the most likely place. He couldn't guarantee that it'll appear in these five places, so it all relies on their luck.
After all, thinking like Zouken is the limit of what Shinji can do at the moment.
"These five..." He murmured as he placed himself in his enemy's position.
Shiro agreed with Shinji that the study might be the most likely place, though he also felt that it should be somewhere else. For example, the garden.
It is very easy to hide somewhere underground. It's also more secure than the study since bounded fields are more focused there due to the high-level medicinal plants that are used for the experiments.
Zouken Matou is such a cautious person, thus it is really hard to predict where he would hide those worms. It's like playing an invisible mind game against him.
"Alright. We'll focus on these five, just like what you've said."
"Really?" Shinji asked with disbelief. After all, this is the first time he's been trusted that much by others.
"Yep. I'll also require your help."
"My help?"
Shiro began explaining the rough plan that he had formulated.
