The gesture of lifting her chin was so suggestive and alluring, while Illya's temperament was so innocent that it made people forget that she was actually Shirou's older sister.

No, no, three years is the minimum, three years is the minimum.

Lin Yan turned his head away.

One still needs to have some self-control. Although secular laws have never been able to govern extraordinary people like Lin Yan, otherwise, every single one of those magician families would have been executed within a week of lining up.

The money spent on purchasing bullets was a huge order that would make any arms dealer drool.

"What a pity." Ilya lightly hopped back onto her chair like a butterfly, but since the image of a well-mannered and knowledgeable young lady she had just maintained had been shattered, she no longer had any intention of continuing to pretend to be a rich young lady.

On the edge of an ornate, Western-style table, she rested her chin on one hand, her legs gently swaying.

"Brother Lin Yan, what you want, although our Einzbern family can't provide it right now, we can definitely get it from somewhere else."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan, who was about to leave, immediately stopped his thoughts of leaving right then and there and put the Holy Grail back on the table.

"So, which family can repair the Holy Grail?"

"Let's not talk about that for now." Ilya smiled sweetly. Her lips were very beautiful, and when she smiled, she had a slightly mischievous, loli-like quality, but also a bright, youthful charm.

"The Einzbern family's magical heritage, passed down through hundreds of years, cannot be broken with me." Ilya's voice, though still youthful and clear, held an undeniable firmness. However, when she looked at Lin Yan, a hint of shyness flickered in her eyes.

"The magic world is in turmoil right now. Even the Matou family, one of the three great families, has been wiped out. In order to protect the legacy of the Einzbern family, I hope that Brother Lin Yan can form a marriage alliance with the Einzbern family."

"Marriage?"

Lin Yan was somewhat puzzled. The marriage alliance meant giving him a rubber wife... although she wasn't inflatable, and she was incredibly intelligent, and there was a high possibility that she would have many unimaginable new ways to play with her... Pshaw! Back to the point.

But is it a bit disrespectful to think that you can pull yourself onto the old, dilapidated ship of the Einzbern family with just one puppet?

"No, no, no, marriage alliances? As a successor of socialism, a fine young person born under the red flag and raised in the spring breeze, I would absolutely not accept such feudal things."

Although he did want a doll, Lin Yan disliked the feeling of being used because of it.

"Eh? Why?"

Ilya came to Lin Yan's side once again, her soft little hands grasping his arm. Looking down at him, her skin was as pure and flawless as a newly blossoming magnolia.

"Brother Lin Yan, although Ilya is small, I will grow up in the future."

"what?"

"I, that..."

Lin Yan looked left and right to make sure that there was really no force majeure in any direction before he finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.

"We'll talk about this later. Since you can't get the Holy Grail, I'll find someone else to help."

This is really terrible. If I really can't use magic, I'll just use it. I can't really not give it to two people... Now there are three of us.

Can we really stop supplying them with magic?

It's okay to not have a human body; at least you won't gain weight no matter how much you eat.

"A fragment of the Holy Grail." As Lin Yan was about to leave the living room, Ilya's voice came from behind him:

"To repair the Holy Grail, we definitely need something that shares the same origin as the Holy Grail. The only thing in the world that shares the same origin as the Holy Grail is the fragment left behind by the Holy Grail that was destroyed in the Fourth Holy Grail War."

Lin Yan paused, turning to look at the precocious little guy behind him.

"Big brother probably already knows where to find the Holy Grail fragments, right? Remember to come back after you find them."

Ilya, somewhere between a young girl and a little girl, had her white dress billowing in the breeze. Her serene expression and slightly upturned lips gave Lin Yan, who was about to leave, a strange sense of guilt.

Damn, how come I can't resist his charm? He's so damn handsome.

The most readily available source of Holy Grail fragments is Ilya, but extracting a core-like fragment from her body would undoubtedly have a huge impact on her, and could even lead to her death.

Therefore, she needs to find someone for whom a Holy Grail fragment is not very important.

Matou Sakura.

As dusk fell, with the Holy Grail War over and no one left in the Matou family, Matou Sakura continued to go to and from school as usual every day, without participating in club activities. After school, she would return to the Matou family home and sit in the yard, lost in thought.

It's as if a Holy Grail War has passed, filling her soul as well.

"Sakura."

A figure dressed in red with pigtails appeared in front of the door.

Rin Tohsaka hesitated for a moment at the door, but then decisively walked into the Matou residence.

Sakura Matou glanced at Rin Tohsaka, but still didn't react.

"There's no one left in the Matou family. Come back with me." Rin Tohsaka sighed.

“Your father’s decision back then was a huge mistake, and I had no idea what you had gone through with the Matou family. Now the Matou family has finally gotten what they deserved. Come back with me.”

But no matter what Rin Tohsaka said, Sakura Matou refused to respond.

"If you call Shirou Emiya over, maybe your sister will listen to you."

Lin Yan spoke up at the opportune moment.

Upon seeing Lin Yan, Rin Tohsaka frowned and instinctively wanted to make a defensive move. However, she remembered that Lin Yan was a peerless ruthless person who could end the entire Holy Grail War with a single blow and withstand the attack of Ea. She couldn't beat him; she simply couldn't.

Helpless, he could only swallow his anger and put away the gem he was about to throw.

"What are you here for?"

She had met Lin Yan before the Holy Grail War began and didn't have a good impression of this carefree young man. Especially after he not only became close to Saber but also had an ambiguous relationship with a Caster-class female Servant, and in the final battle, even Rider Medusa fell into his hands.

Rin Tohsaka strongly suspects that this womanizer and lecherous devil has taken a liking to Sakura Matou and intends to toy with her sister's body and mind.

Even if you can't beat someone like that, you should still try to reason with them and negotiate.

"There's something I need to do; I need to borrow the Holy Grail fragment from Matou Sakura's body."

Lin Yan didn't know how Japanese culture viewed things, but he wasn't interested in Matou Sakura's situation.

"If you want to hurt Sakura, you'll have to step over my dead body."

Rin Tohsaka was very determined, spreading her arms to block Sakura Matou's way.

"Okay."

As Lin Yan finished speaking, Rin Tohsaka suddenly felt an immense pressure bearing down on her. A beautiful purple crystal slid from her sleeve, and just as she was about to throw it to detonate, Lin Yan appeared in front of her, kicking her to the ground before stepping over her stomach to walk to Sakura Matou's side.

Chapter 313 Kayaba Akihiko's Disguise

The consequences will be drastically different depending on how the Holy Grail fragments are taken.

Sakura Matou's situation is fundamentally different from Illya's. She is a normal human being. Although the Holy Grail fragment was implanted into her body through the Crest Worms and has become part of her body over time, it is not the core.

While slowly channeling magic to maintain vital signs and using spiritual energy to nourish the body during the process of retrieving the Holy Grail fragments, not only will it not harm one's life, but it will also minimize any depletion or damage to the body.

After all, Lin Yan wasn't some kind of evil spirit.

After confirming the location of the Holy Grail fragment, Lin Yan quickly began to act. Rin Tohsaka tried to struggle further, but Lin Yan froze her in place with a single glance.

A vast, boundless spiritual force surged into her mental space, and Rin Tohsaka's gaze quickly became empty and vacant.

……

"Finally done. Separating this thing was such a hassle."

A dozen minutes later, Lin Yan looked at the three thumb-sized Holy Grail fragments in his hand, and the spiritual energy emanating from them dissipated. He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Feeling the power in his hand that was of the same origin as the Holy Grail, Lin Yan knew that the restoration of the Holy Grail was a foregone conclusion.

Even without the Einzbern family, if he and Medea went through the laboratory a few more times, they could have come up with a way to fill the gap in the Holy Grail.

It's just not as exquisite.

"You bastard, what did you do to Sakura...?"

Seeing the blood all over the ground, Rin Tohsaka, who had finally recovered, immediately rushed to Sakura Matou's side and helped her up from the ground.

Although Matou Sakura had no scars on her body or clothes, and Lin Yan's technique for using spiritual energy to create swords was extremely refined, the Holy Grail fragments he cut out always had some blood on them, which was unavoidable.

Seeing the specks of blood on the ground, Rin Tohsaka's hands trembled and her eyes were bloodshot, but when she turned to look at Lin Yan, who had already flown away, she could do nothing.

"elder sister."

A sudden sound came from behind Rin Tohsaka.

Sakura Matou struggled to her feet and moved her body around, but found that she did not feel any discomfort.

"He didn't do anything to me, he just helped me remove the Holy Grail fragments from my body."

"I know my own body better than anyone else," Matou Sakura smiled gently. "Thank you, sister."

Rin Tohsaka was used to Sakura Matou's coldness, so this was the first time he had ever been treated so gently. He stared wide-eyed in disbelief, almost afraid to turn around, as if he was hallucinating.

"Thank you for protecting me, sister."

Rin Tohsaka felt a softness behind her, followed by a pair of arms emerging from under her armpits and wrapping around her lower abdomen.

It was Matou Sakura who hugged her from behind.

Lin Yan didn't care about the reconciliation between the sisters later; she was all smiles and tenderness.

Next, I need to hurry back to the Einzbern family, repair the Holy Grail, and then make a wish to keep my wives safe and sound in the mortal world.
