Just after the whole showdown with Balam, one of the Demon Lords of Ars Goetia. A lot of civilians saw the Hanging Gardens of Babylon being blown to bits and Camilla being the second in command of the Mage Knight Order. Had to tell them that it was a private plane that crashed, of course. They bought it, she also told them that it was Ephraim Tyrannus Windsor's ride that was blown. This did created a nationwide talk in the U.K. 

Of course, since Ephraim also did help the French in their government. They also talked about it a lot. The news brought the whole world the news of his death and even Queen Elizabeth crying for the death of her grandson. A lot of people specially in Edinburgh cried knowing that their Duke passed away.

  Man 1: "Damn... This is stupid..."

Man 2: "Hey! Don't you dare disrespect the duke like that!"

Man 1: "Oh yeah? Why not? It's not like if we die it'll be newsworthy."

Man 2: "You need to shut your trap, kid! Were you blind when the Duke was still alive? He was the one who gave us jobs, he made us feel at peace here alone."

Man 3: "Gentlemen, please."

The two of them looked away and one of them drank himself while the other left. As he man who left walked away from the bar, they also heard a lot of murmurs from both men and women. 

Man 1: "Damn, what did he even do? He's just a kid..."

A week has passed and the majority of Servants went back to the throne of heroes. Of course, both Touka and Makoto had to make a deal with them so, they gave the sisters a piece to summon them. From Achilles to Shirou Amakusa. After that, they went back to the throne of heroes and then as for Touka she went back to the Buckingham palace while Makoto went to their home in this dimension.

Another three days have passed and a lot of them gathered in the cemetery. The Queen of England and of course. With both William and Leo present along with their father. The former Duke of Edinburgh, with Fiore and Caules alongside with Gorges Musik then both Reika and Jack the Ripper, joined in for the funeral. Sieg and Astolfo then Camilla and Ren and of course, a lot of people from both the Mage's Association and the Mage Knight Order. The most silent out of everyone was Jeanne who was the last to go out of the church as she still prays to God.

Most of them went out of the church and Jeanne still stayed behind. The Priest then looks at the coffin and began his own prayers commending the family and friends. 

Priest: "We commend his soul to the Heavenly Father, though his life in Earth has ended far too soon. He lives in grace with you, comfort those who he left behind. Oh God. And let them know your peace."

As the priest uttered his final sentence, he lets the others to silently pray for Ephraim, Jeanne went outside and also prayed near Queen Elizabeth. Even though it was raining, there were three cameras and three journalist ready to do what they do best. 

William: "That dastard..."

Leo: "Why did it have to be this way...?"

Ren: "Ephraim... I know that we don't talk much since we were busy with our duties but I would love to go out on a drinking party with you for a while now... Guess that will never happen, huh?"
