In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

In response, Kirei Kotomine could only manage a bitter smile.

Because his overtime work is about to begin, he has even started to feel stomach pains silently.

On the other side, at the Tohsaka mansion.

Luvia, who had agreed to visit again after Lovi's return, came to his door as promised.

Seeing the Rin Rin had turned the Rin Rin's house upside down, Luvia immediately launched into a taunt, mocking how Rin Rin's house had ended up in such a mess.

She then found a seat and continued to mock Rin Tohsaka even more vehemently.

These repeated taunts only added fuel to the fire for Rin Tohsaka, who was already furious. But thinking that even if she tried to drive the other person away, she would definitely not leave, Rin suddenly came up with a new idea.

"Hey! Luvia."

Rin Tohsaka suddenly stood up in front of Luvia and said loudly, "We agreed that the battle would be decided in this Holy Grail War, right?"

"Of course, so what? Are you here to admit defeat to me?" Luvia opened her fan, looking at Rin Tohsaka with a mocking expression. "Already surrendering?"

"How could that be? I told you, I'll beat you to a pulp later!"

Rin Tohsaka immediately retorted.

"That's really boastful."

Luvia let out a cold laugh.

"You're the one who's talking big. I mean what I say."

Rin Tohsaka pointed at Luvia's nose and said, "Unlike you, who only knows how to rely on your family's wealth, I'm going to beat you to a pulp with my own strength. So, I won't use artifacts; I'll use my own affinity to summon!"

"Oh? So you're..." Luvia narrowed her eyes, "...provoking me?"

"Exactly, so how about a contest with me, Luvia? This time, let's settle this by summoning Servants based on affinity, without using artifacts!"

Rin Tohsaka added fuel to the fire, saying, "Let's decide who's better based on real ability and character!"

At this moment, compared to the two people over there, Luo Wei, who was watching this drama, was the most speechless one.

Rin Tohsaka, stop comparing who's better, I have something to ask you...

To be honest, Luo Wei didn't expect that Rin Tohsaka would come up with such a wicked idea so quickly at this moment, and that she would think of using reverse psychology to provoke Luvia, making her give up her own advantages and gamble with her, who originally had nothing.

Moreover, he can say such things with such righteous indignation, and even say that he doesn't use them himself.

Then why don't you use it?

You don't want to use it?

Isn't it still nothing?

This is a combination of moral blackmail and getting something for nothing.

However, anyone could see through such a despicable provocation, and as a genius from a prestigious family, Luvia was naturally well aware of it as well. At this moment, she was very clear about Rin Tohsaka's intentions.

And she was also well aware that a normal magician wouldn't bother with such pointless arguments and thus give up their advantage, but she was different...

As mentioned before, she would rather see Rin Tohsaka looking defeated and helpless than witness the Holy Grail War, so that she would be completely convinced of her defeat.

and so……

"Then so be it. I'll make you admit defeat wholeheartedly, Rin Tohsaka." Luvia slammed her fan shut and said seriously, "This time, I'll make sure you have no excuses."

Seeing that she had actually agreed, Rin Tohsaka suppressed her expression and tried not to laugh out loud, but inside she was practically bursting with joy.

Seeing this, Luo Wei was completely speechless.

He was certain that if they switched places, Rin Tohsaka would verbally agree, but would immediately go and buy the best relics to cheat.

However, Luvia doesn't have that habit.

She looked at Luo Wei, then rose slightly, took out a dusty wooden box from her bag, and handed it to Luo Wei.

"Since that's the case, then this thing is probably no longer needed, so I'll give it to you for safekeeping, as a testament to this duel."

Luvia said seriously.

Upon seeing the wooden box, Rin Tohsaka curiously approached. When she saw the Tohsaka family crest on the box, she was stunned and immediately raised her voice to ask, "What is this? Where did you get this?!"

Luo Wei remained silent, but quietly opened the box, inside which was a very ancient, weathered snakeskin.

At that moment, Rin Tohsaka was stunned, and Luvia replied, "This is the snake skin of the Primordial Serpent that your father sold, and now I have bought it."

"Ha...ha, you're really well prepared."

Rin Tohsaka forced a smile, but inside she was seething with rage.

She began to admire her own wit, because just a hair's breadth away, just a tiny bit more, and this guy was about to summon the Hero King Gilgamesh.

The thought of being beaten to a pulp by her father's former servants and her enemies made Rin Tohsaka's face darken even more.

If things really turned out that way, she would probably be the most frustrated Master in the world.

When Luo Wei saw the snakeskin, he frowned.

After all, using this will definitely summon King Gigi.

However, if King Gigi is summoned, then there will definitely be big problems.

After all, he only gave Kiritsugu Emiya a relic like that because Tokiomi Tohsaka sold the snakeskin. If Luvia really summoned Gilgamesh, not to mention anything else, those two Servants alone would tear Fuyuki City apart.

In that case, in order to stop them, Loewy would help Rin Tohsaka forcibly lock onto Enkidu as her Servant.

But even if Enkidu comes out, the situation will still become catastrophic.

They might just completely demolish Fuyuki City anyway.

But looking at the current situation, thankfully, thankfully...

Did Rin Tohsaka's little scheme actually save Fuyuki City's life?

Compared to the chaotic battle between Hercules, Gilgamesh, and Enkidu.

He suddenly felt that the two of them summoning each other based on their compatibility wasn't so hard to accept.

However, since Rin Tohsaka's compatibility might be with Ishtar...

As for Naruvia, he remembered that she was the Greek goddess of justice, and seemed to be someone who could rival Ishtar.

In that case, things might not get so bad afterward.

So, should I summon a decent Servant now to fill the last spot and completely take control of the Holy Grail War?

he thought so.

Chapter 368 Picked Up a Person

Inside the Tohsaka residence.

Just as Lovi was pondering whether to fill the last vacancy in the Holy Grail War with a different Servant, on the other side, after Luvia went up to Rin Tohsaka and started showing off, the situation unsurprisingly turned into Rin and Luvia tearing each other apart again.

Seeing the two start arguing again after only a short time of neglect, Luo Wei felt speechless.

In his eyes, these two people truly demonstrated the basic principle of repulsion between like sexes to the fullest extent.

Because they are so similar, they feel an inexplicable dislike towards each other. One can't stand the other's arrogance and superiority in every aspect, while the other enjoys seeing the other get angry and embarrassed.

They can be described as true enemies.

Logically speaking, given Luvia and Rin Tohsaka's ruthless and taciturn nature, and their tendency to prefer action to words, this should have already escalated into a real-life fight.

However, even though Luvia considered herself excellent and proud, she wasn't blindly arrogant. Facing someone like Lovi, who was superior to her in every way and practically her childhood idol, she maintained her composure and suppressed her urge to stoop to Rin's level. Rin, on the other hand, knew perfectly well that if she dared to lay a hand on him or disobey, Lovi would surely hang her from the rafters again.

One reason for Luo Wei's reprimand was to avoid losing his composure in front of his idol, and the other was to avoid being laughed at by Luvia. So the current situation is still one of gentlemen using words rather than fists.

But without a doubt, this calm is only temporary; for them, it's merely the calm before the storm. Given the chance, the two of them will undoubtedly strike at each other without hesitation once more.

"Okay, let's quiet down for a bit."

"Luvia, since you're here too, I'll share what I know with you to be fair."

Interrupting their argument, Luo Wei addressed Luvia, who had just arrived, saying, "First, let's talk about the new contestants."

Thank you so much!

Upon hearing this, Luvia was overjoyed. Even the look of disdain she had when she looked at Rin Tohsaka immediately changed completely, and a bright smile returned to her face.

"what?"

In contrast to Luvia's beaming smile, Rin Tohsaka looked utterly displeased.

Why should we share it with her?

She questioned Rowe.

"Because this is my intelligence, I can give it to whomever I want, is that an acceptable explanation?"

"Well……"

Rin Tohsaka was clearly taken aback by Luo Wei's answer. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that she hadn't done anything and therefore had no right to ask Luo Wei for anything.

Then, Lovi said, "Luvia, there's another contestant, Illya's father, Kiritsugu Emiya. Remember him."

"It was him! And that dangerous individual was actually Ilya's father!"

When Luvia heard what Lovi said, her expression became somewhat incredulous.

Her mind immediately flashed back to Ilya's innocent smiling face, and then she immediately thought of the terrifying man outside, wanted by the Mage's Association and labeled as a dangerous element—Emiya Kiritsugu.

No matter how she thought about it, she found it hard to believe that the terrorist was Ilya's father.

But that's just how it is...

At this moment, Luo Wei nodded slightly, confirming her answer.

"I see..."

Seeing this, Luvia sighed helplessly.

Am I really going to become enemies with the father of a friend I just met?

What a cruel twist of fate...

"What Ilya? What are you talking about?"

Hearing Luvia and Lovi's conversation, Rin Tohsaka, an outsider who didn't know Illya, spoke up.

"It's none of your business, you don't need to know so much."
