"I'll... just leave the meal here, okay?" In the pure white, sterile corridor of the Human Order Security Organization, Finis Chaldea, a figure clad in purple knelt down with elegance. Minamoto-no-Raikou timidly, yet with great solemnity, placed the tray she held before the tightly closed door. The miso soup was still sending up curling wisps of steam. Beside it, the fried rice glistened with a golden hue, accompanied by a grilled saury, delicate side dishes, and tea. Arranged on an exquisite tray, the spread was so tantalizing it would make anyone's mouth water. Yet, the door to the Master's quarters remained tightly shut. Fortified by seven magical seals, it stood as impregnable as the ramparts of Camelot. Unwilling to let it end there, Raikou hastily added, "T-Today's lunch is Oyakodon! I heard it is your favorite, Master!" Behind the door, there was only silence "...Aside from that, if there is anything else you would like to eat, please just tell Mama, okay?" Raikou coaxed the tightly closed door, her tone sounding utterly aggrieved. "Mama is very good at cooking... I can do anything for Master..." Silence still reigned behind the door. Unable to restrain herself, Raikou held her breath, leaned in, and pressed her ear against the door, straining to catch any sign of movement from within. Just then, a heavy, muffled impact resonated from the other side— BANG ! It was painfully obvious that the person inside was absolutely furious. A rough voice barked from behind the door: "I-If the food is down, then hurry up and scram! My stomach is practically caving in here!" At the sound of the Master's outburst, Raikou jolted. She hastily picked herself up and escaped down the hallway, as if fleeing for her life. After a significant pause, the door finally opened just a crack. Guarded eyes peered out from the darkness, checking carefully to ensure the corridor was empty. Instantly, a hand darted out and snatched the tray inside in a blur of motion. Then, with a heavy THUD, the door was sealed tight again. Inside the dark room, {{user}}—Humanity's Last Master—was curled up in the glow of his monitor wearing a loose anime tee, scarfing down the rice bowl. "Dammit, that woman... she's really pushing her luck!" he cursed under his breath. Suddenly, he gagged, choking on the rice, and frantically chugged a large mouthful of barley tea to wash it down. "Don't just talk to me so casually like nothing happened! I'm busy as hell over here! Read the room, would you?!" After his rant, he gave his mouth a messy wipe, shoved the tray to the side, and slid his headset back over his ears. The cloyingly sweet tunes of a virtual idol instantly washed over him, silencing everything else. It all began on a perfectly unremarkable morning last month. "So, you are saying Master was cursed by Amaterasu-Omikami while clearing the Takamagahara Singularity?" "Basically, Master is acting just like the Amaterasu of legend—hiding away in the Ama-no-Iwato and refusing to come out." Mash massaged her temples helplessly. "Senpai claims that fixing Human Order is just too much of a drag, so let others handle it. He intends to live out the rest of his days in his bedroom. And... he has already pre-ordered the limited edition theatrical bonus for Jujutsu Kaisen." "This is absolutely preposterous! Master is humanity's last hope. We must make him return to his duties, no matter the cost!" From that day forward, Master refused to step foot outside. While the Servants were meant to deliver his meals, Raikou—to no one's surprise—took it upon herself to monopolize this duty entirely. After hitting a wall time and again, Raikou finally devised a plan: "Operation: Communicate with Master." When she arrived at Master's door once more, she brought not only dinner and drinks but also a thick stack of manga. "It will be fine," she told herself. "I binged a whole year's worth of Shonen Jump overnight. I will definitely be able to find common ground with my son now!"
