After having enough fun in the Detective Conan world and collecting about 20,000 points, I decided to return to reality.
"Game over!"

[Acquired 17351 points as a reward for progressing in Detective Conan.]
"Huh, why is the reward so low?"
I thought I would receive over 20,000 points, but it fell short. Thinking about why, I realized I hadn't met important characters yet and had no connection to the main villain, the Black Organization.
"Status window!"
[Cassian]
Strength:200(+600) Stamina:200 Agility:200 Intelligence:200(+400) Mana:452(+1000)

"Ah~! Damn it!"
Since the point reward was lower than expected, I couldn't reach 100,000, so I couldn't do a 100 consecutive draw.
"No choice, I'll have to quickly visit one more world. Before that..."
One question arose in the Detective Conan world. I couldn't understand why Kaitou Kid returned the Black Star. If he wanted revenge on me, it would have been more impactful if he just took it and ran, but he gave it back. That's why I didn't chase him aggressively.
In a way, by handing over the Black Star so obediently, it led to the ironic situation where Kaitou Kid wasn't caught again.
"I can't figure it out..."
First, I checked the Detective Conan works in the bunker, but I couldn't find anything about Kaitou Kid. Detective Conan has so much content, and besides the main story, there are many spin-offs and movies, so I just gathered what was available, and the bunker only had the main story and a few movies.
[Master, to make the most of your abilities, I judge that data collection is urgent.]
"Nano, you think so too?"
[Yes. That way, you can reduce risks and handle various situations flexibly.]
"I see. Since I can't use Wikipedia or YouTube now..."
I immediately got up and searched nationwide for bookstores. Major cities were already destroyed, so there was nothing, but in the outskirts, there were still a few large bookstores intact.
"I should take this chance to gather works not in the bunker."
Next, I decided to go to that country as well. Since in my home country, censorship is strict, there might be deleted parts, and many works aren't officially released. That country, like mine, had many cities devastated, but fortunately, since there are many otaku who love manga, I was able to collect quite a lot of materials.
I used [Life Magic] to remove contaminants from the collected materials and stored them in my inventory. If I took them all out, it would be enough to fill a large library.
"This should be enough."
Interestingly, there were many works I was seeing for the first time, like 'Kochira Katsushika-ku Kameari Kōen Mae Hashutsujo', which had over 200 volumes.
"Whoa... I don't have the courage to read it."
Anyway, after finishing data collection, I returned to the bunker. And I took out the spin-off works of Detective Conan. From a work called 'MAGIC KAITO', I could learn about Kaitou Kid.
"I see... the Pandora gem that grants eternal life..."
To summarize roughly, Kaitou Kid was active as Kaitou Kid to uncover the truth about his father's death. Upon learning that his father died related to a big jewel called Pandora that some organization was after, he set a goal to find Pandora first and destroy it to take revenge on that organization, targeting only big jewels and returning them after confirmation.
But it was a bit absurd. Eternal life in a modern推理 work like Detective Conan... and even magic...
"Well, it's a world where adults turn into children..."
Thinking 'if you think deeply, you lose,' I stopped worrying about that issue.
"Then, now for a work where I can go quickly..."
This time, I decided to go to a work where I could definitely see the ending. That way, I thought I could earn more points.
"Good, I'll go to 'Fate/stay night'"

"Well, this should do."
[Proceed with this?]
"Yes."
As soon as I accepted, I suddenly fell downward.
"Ugh!"
Crash!
I felt someone jumping from the floor below to the upper floor where I was summoned.
Clatter!
"Oh~ You succeeded! What's your class??"
Tohsaka Rin burst open the living room door and came in, looking at me and immediately asking about my class. As per the original, Tohsaka Rin was wearing a fairly short skirt and stockings that reached her thighs, so the so-called 'absolute territory' was clearly visible, and she had on a red long-sleeved top. Plus, twin tails that are hard to pull off. Rin had all the precious things.
"Me? Well, Archer, I guess?"
"'Archer, I guess'! You don't even know your own class?"
I brushed off my clothes and stood up.
"I'm a composite class. I can be anything. Well... let's go with Archer for now."
"What??? Let's go with Archer for now???"
Rin was momentarily flustered, then suddenly touched her chin and started pondering with a serious face.
"This, seems like a failure... I should summon again..."
"Whoa whoa~ Calm down. You've summoned the strongest Servant. You'll regret it if you send me back?"
Even if Rin tried to send me back, I had no intention of going obediently.
At my words, Rin approached and said.
"Prove it!"
"How?"
"Show me something!"
After thinking for a moment, I told Rin.
"Are you sure you won't regret it?"
"Yes, show me quickly!"
"Then let's go outside. It's hard to do here."
We went outside. Honestly, I didn't want to drag out this world, so I had no intention of hiding my abilities. I immediately took out a metal bead from my inventory, changed it to vibranium with [Matter Manipulation], and started filling it with energy to the limit using the [Energy Bomb] ability.
"Watch closely, this is my power."
As the vibranium bead filled with energy to the limit started humming and vibrating in my hand, I threw it with all my might at the mountain visible in the distance.
Flash!
"Eek!"
Suddenly, at the bright light, Rin covered her eyes. Then, with a tremendous explosion and aftershock, we were hit. Of course, I blocked it all with magic.
Boom!!!!
As the light gradually faded and a huge mushroom cloud revealed itself, Tohsaka Rin slumped down on the spot.
Thud!
"My... my goodness..."
"See? I told you you'd regret it. If I use all my power, I can erase everyone in that country from the world in a day. So, butler, serve me well."
"... Yes, okay."
The next day, news broke out that that country had been hit by a nuclear attack. The mountain I targeted had disappeared without a trace, and the surrounding land was all overturned, and news reported that everyone living near the mountain had died. The estimated death toll was about 300? Fortunately, it was night and the mountain was distant from the city center, so casualties were low.
Anyway, suspicious countries were said to be a certain country, another country, and another nation, and outside, the Self-Defense Forces and U.S. military were seen driving tanks and Humvees. Since that country had been hit by nuclear weapons twice during World War II, it declared a state of emergency, restricted civilian movement near the capital, and began preparing for war.
"You went too far!!! Because of you, I can't even go to school!!! And what about the people who died!!!"
"You asked to see it."
"But not to this extent!!!"
Rin kept shouting angrily beside me. I lay on the sofa watching TV and eating snacks, regardless of what Rin said.
"More importantly, I'm hungry. Butler, make me food."
"Agh! Really!!!"
Rin grumbled and boiled instant ramen for me.
"Hey, butler! What kind of food is this!"
"I can't even go outside because of you, what do you expect!!"
"Tch, wait."
I took out various ingredients from my inventory and started cooking. Then, Rin watched and admired.
"Wow~ What's this, where did you get that..."
"It's bothersome to explain. Butler, just wait a bit."
After finishing cooking, I roughly cleaned the living room with [Life Magic] and ate with Rin.
"It's delicious!"
Rin ate the food I made and admired it again.
"How about it, do you believe now that you've summoned the strongest Servant?"
Rin hesitated for a moment and answered.
"...Yes. But I think a too dangerous person has come as a Servant."
After finishing the meal, we took out ice cream from the inventory and were eating it.
"As a Master, I think I have the right to know my Servant's true name for tactical reasons. Tell me which heroic spirit you are."
"Okay, my true name is Cassian. I'm from a future in that country. Just call me Cassian."
"What? The future? And that country? You don't look like an Asian at all?"
I decided to mix in some facts from the reality I was in.
"Where I was, humanity was almost extinct."
Since the start of my words was shocking, Rin asked in surprise.
"What?? How did that happen??"
"Well, to put it simply, starting with global warming preventing food production, a certain country that couldn't feed its large population joined hands with another country and started a nuclear war, contaminating the entire Earth with radiation, so almost no one survived."
"Then, what about that country???"
Tohsaka Rin was curious about her country.
"That country died long ago due to contamination from nuclear attacks and climate change. The people from those countries didn't just target cities. They also targeted nuclear power plants."
"That's..."
"It happens after you grow old and die, so don't worry too much. But it will be tough from your children's generation onwards."
Rin pondered with a serious face and said.
"No wonder... you're wearing modern suits, which doesn't match a Servant, but that's why."
"Well, yes."
"Is there no way to prevent it?"
"No. Developed countries tried to prevent global warming, but a certain country and another country, along with developing countries, didn't listen. They said, 'Are you trying to stop our development under the pretext of global warming?' and didn't even believe it. So, developed countries probably gave up with a 'it'll work out somehow' attitude."
Realizing the severity of the situation, Rin was restless.
"Good grief... things like the Holy Grail War aren't important!!"
"Well, yes... Why? Want to try to prevent it? Just give up and live happily. It's something that will happen even with scientists and politicians trying."
"..."
At my words, Rin was dumbfounded, but since she herself thought there was no way to prevent it, she didn't say much.
A week passed after that. Occasionally, the Self-Defense Forces came to distribute food, but nothing else happened.
On the news, as if the investigation into the explosion cause was over, the prime minister personally came out and announced the results.
-Citizens, please rest assured. This explosion has been investigated to be caused by a meteorite.
Roughly, if it were a nuclear attack, the explosion site and surroundings should have high radiation levels, but since very minimal levels were observed, they concluded it was a meteorite, not a nuclear weapon. So, the Self-Defense Forces and U.S. military in the capital were seen returning to their respective units.
"Phew... it's good that it resolved well... Cassian, you understand that technique is sealed, right!"
"Yes, yes. But what magic does Rin use?"
Upon hearing my words, Rin went to her room and brought a small pouch, which contained various gems.
"First, as a disciple of the Gem Mage family, I can use gem magic. My magic attributes are earth, water, fire, wind, and void, and I can combine them to produce various effects. It will be very helpful in battle. Also, I know a bit of Bajiquan."
Rin said proudly.
"Then you need a lot of gems, right? That must cost a lot?"
"Th... that's right."
Looking at Rin's expression, it seemed like a sore spot was hit. I took out numerous gems from my inventory and placed them on the table.
"Use them if they're useful."
Seeing the many gems piled on the table, Rin couldn't come to her senses.
"Wah~~~~!!! I love you~~~ Cassian!!! How much is this~"
Rin suddenly hugged me and showered kisses on my cheek. I was about to let it be, but I stopped her first.
"Whoa whoa~ Calm down."
"Sniff sniff, actually, it's been so hard lately. I overdid it preparing for the Holy Grail War... Ah~ Cassian, aren't you an angel sent by heaven pitying me~"
Now she even started crying and took a posture praying to the sky, beginning to talk nonsense. Seeing Rin call me an angel even though I killed so many people was a bit embarrassing. Was she that strapped for cash?
"I have more, so ask if you need it. I'll give you more."
At those words, Rin said gratefully.
"Wow~ I won't even look at other Servants from now on!!"
"Yes, yes. Wipe your tears and talk."
'Tohsaka Rin wasn't originally like this...'
