My youth story, a crossover anime, turns out, is FGO!

Makoto Aoki has been feeling very down lately.

Perhaps it's a side effect of being too busy in the Holy Grail War, but lately he doesn't want to do anything and just wants to laze around like a lazy bum.

Anyway, now that the Master's choices and Servant summons are all automatically responded to by the Greater Grail, he doesn't have to worry about anything, so of course he can just relax!

Of course, that's what he said, but Makoto Aoki wasn't doing nothing. At least he was involved in the integration of the Yggdrasil homunculus into the everyday world. And with his newborn younger brother, Tetsu Aoki, he was still a long way from being able to take a complete break.

"puff--"

As his gaze swept over the blogs that Aoki Tetsu followed, Aoki Makoto spat out the drink in his mouth. But he didn't bother to clean it up. When he looked closely, his face started to twitch.

"Magical Girl☆Merry?!"

Seeing this pink and cute interface on his younger brother's phone screen, Makoto Aoki was completely taken aback.

"Does brother also know about Magical Girl☆Merry?" To Aoki Makoto, Aoki Tetsu's obedient expression looked like he'd been fooled by a cross-dressing man.

"It's said to be a very popular virtual idol recently."

Makoto Aoki could barely contain his excitement. He leaned over to take a look and saw that the number of views had already exceeded 100 million—what's going on? Do people like that pervert Merlin so much these days?

"Promise me, A-Che."

Aoki Makoto said in a heavy tone, "Don't pay attention to these suspicious websites anymore."

"Ahead lies hell."

That's a cross-dressing master who even Solomon fell for. You're so young, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it.

Aoki Tetsu blinked his clear, big eyes and nodded obediently, "I understand, brother."

Anyway, he had only clicked on it.

After returning to his room, Makoto Aoki quickly searched for the Magical Girl☆Merry website on his phone, wanting to know just how much trouble that unscrupulous half-blood nightmare had caused.

I wonder if I'll soon be number one on the world's most wanted online scammer list!

With a scrutinizing gaze, Makoto Aoki opened the Magical Girl☆Merry website. Pink flowers filled the entire screen, and then, as if a curtain had been drawn back, the real interface was revealed.

To Aoki Makoto's surprise, there was absolutely no pandering to otaku tastes. Magical Girl☆Merlin turned out to be a true talent, with almost all the songs being composed and sung by himself.

The white-haired girl with twin ponytails on the screen has exquisite features and an extraordinary temperament. Her large, light purple eyes blink and seem to be able to gaze into people's hearts.

She smiled slightly, revealing adorable dimples on her cheeks, exuding a dreamy and mischievous charm.

Then the songs on the homepage are roughly—

"I Never Want to Work Overtime Again, Are You a Monster? — A Song for the Last Master"

Goodbye, you self-destructive fool—A song for the idiot Romani

"Finally, I'm no longer working for you! Hahaha, it's giving me a headache—A Song for Gilgamesh"

……

Ah, looking at these titles that feel so familiar, Makoto Aoki, as a veteran of FGO, had a lot to say. He casually forwarded the first video to Ritsuka Fujimaru. With a skeptical attitude, Makoto Aoki clicked on the first video.

……

So Makoto Aoki watched videos all night long.

The next day, when he looked at himself in the mirror with dark circles under his eyes, Makoto Aoki wanted to yell at him.

Merlin, you really are toxic!

In fact, Merlin was indeed poisonous!

"Waaaaah, my Magical Girl☆Merry, waaaaah..." As a veteran anime and manga otaku, Aki Tomoya was naturally the first to discover the treasure (huge pit) of Magical Girl☆Merry. Now, this old anime and manga fan has become Merry in shape.

"What's wrong with him?" Kasumigaoka Utaha was chatting with Charlemagne when she was interrupted by the noise.

"Hmm, it seems to be a popular virtual idol these days. I've been following them too."

Kato Megumi took out her phone and opened the page: "This is it, Magical Girl☆Merry, a very cute girl idol."

"Even Kato, you..." Kasumigaoka Utaha was speechless, after all, Kato Megumi had never been interested in anime.

Damn it, how could she, a true anime fan, lose to Megumi Kato in terms of information asymmetry?

"Since I joined this club, I should learn more about anime and manga. I've been getting a lot of push notifications lately, so I've started paying attention," Kato Megumi replied calmly. "As for Utaha-senpai, she's been focused on her new novel lately, so she hasn't noticed it."

Kasumigaoka Utaha's heart tightened, and she looked away: "Indeed, I've been thinking about the novel lately and haven't had time to pay attention to news in the industry."

Weird.

Kasumigaoka Utaha has recently gone on a trip with Charlemagne under the pretext of research, and her phone is full of photos. As for the manuscript, apart from the initial draft, she hasn't touched a single word.

I've been urged by the editor many times for this.

"Should we follow Shiwa-senpai?" Kato Megumi asked, holding up her phone. "Merry is indeed a great idol."

"Come on! Join our Merry support group!" Aki Tomoya was desperately trying to persuade Kasumigaoka Utaha, his enthusiasm was simply amazing.

"Now that you put it that way, I've lost interest." Despite saying that, Kasumigaoka Utaha still searched for keywords and went to the webpage.

What comes into view is a girl with white hair and purple eyes, possessing beauty that is beyond human comprehension.

"What's that?" Charlemagne leaned closer, and Kasumigaoka Utaha instinctively covered the screen.

Charlemagne said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, was I being too rude?"

“No, it’s nothing, just a virtual idol.” Kasumigaoka Utaha handed the screen to Charlemagne.

Another test. As expected of you, Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Charlemagne frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

"Are you so engrossed in watching it?" Kasumigaoka Utaha asked in a dangerous tone.

Charlemagne seemed completely oblivious to his Master's displeasure, and hesitated before saying, "As far as I know, virtual idols are probably fake, right?"

"But this should be a real person playing the role."

It looks somewhat familiar.

……

"Magical Girl Mary?"

With her innocent, scarlet eyes wide open, the blonde girl leaned closer to look at the computer screen.

"Don't get so close, Mashiro."

A concerned male voice came from behind, and a hand appeared above her head, pulling her away from the screen.

Shiina Mashiro covered her head, her expression obedient: "I understand, Shirou."

"...You said the same thing last time, remember that."

Holding a spatula, a white-haired, brown-skinned man with a waistband sighed: "What do you want to eat today?"

Shiina Mashiro's eyes lit up: "Cake."

"No!" Shirou Emiya gently tapped the girl's head. "Sweets can't replace meals."

"Well... anything Shirou makes is fine." They're all delicious anyway.

"Okay," Shirou Emiya added. "We can have cake after dinner."

Shiina Mashiro's eyes lit up.

"Shirou, you're the best."

Shiina Mashiro revealed an angelic smile.

Emiya Shirou remained unmoved: "Next time, you'll have to choose your own underwear! Don't come to me!"

Shiina Mashiro tilted her head: "Shirou?"

"Do you understand—" Emiya Shirou drawled.

"I understand—" Shiina Mashiro drawled out the words.

Emiya Shirou, affectionately known as "Red Archer" by many Type-Moon fans, is incredibly troubled, feeling as if he's raising a daughter.

He doesn't want to become a father painlessly so early!
