The limited-time event Summer Preview Edition: Activity Log of the Sparrow's Inn ~Enma-tei Prosperity Record~ began on June 12 and runs until June 26 at 12:59.

The event is an adjusted rerun of the 2020 version, where players collect event items and renovate the hot spring inn Enma-tei to increase Customer Satisfaction and unlock story progression. New Free Quests for new Masters have been added, and high-difficulty Free Quests (Recommended Lv.90+ and Lv.90++) will be implemented from June 15. A Challenge Quest will unlock from June 16 at 18:00, offering one Crystallized Lore as the first clear reward. A special login bonus gives 2 Golden Fruits and 12 Silver Fruits for logging in 14 times during the period.
A permanent Servant Strengthening Quest for Diarmuid Ua Duibhne (Saber) was also added. Clearing the quest changes his skill Passion's Ripple into Shining Face. The new skill grants invincibility (3 times, 3 turns) to all female allies except himself, in addition to increasing his own defense, NP gain, Quick and Buster performance, and NP charge. Players on social media called the skill the Handsome Flash and Absolute Woman Protector. In Celtic mythology, Diarmuid is known as a peerless handsome man, and the 1904 compilation Gods and Fighting Men refers to him as Diarmuid of the bright face at the end of his life.
