Chapter 56 Ruler

　Early morning of the sixth day

　Emilia woke up as the dragon carriage shook. When the hazy scene in front of her gradually became clear, she saw Lin Xuan who was still awake.

　Glancing at Subaru who was already asleep, Emilia asked Lin Xuan in a low voice.

　"Are you still awake? Lin Xuan."

　Lin Xuan noticed when Emilia was about to wake up, so he was not surprised by Emilia's sudden question.

　"I just took a rest, but I wasn't sleepy. I dozed off for a while and then woke up again." Lin Xuan explained to Emilia, retracting his gaze from the window.

　"Is that so?" Emilia nodded, as if remembering something. She pointed at Lin Xuan's chest and said, "You've just had a rest for a while. Let me help you with the treatment."

　Touching his chest, Lin Xuan could still feel some pain. He understood that in the current situation, it would be best to keep himself in the best condition possible, so he did not act pretentiously and readily agreed.

　While receiving treatment from Emilia, Lin Xuan could clearly feel that the injuries on his chest were slowly recovering. He thought that it wouldn't be long before these injuries would not be so serious.

　After a period of treatment, Emilia's face was obviously more tired, obviously because she had not yet had a good rest and had to spend energy treating him again.

　He patted Emilia's shoulder, signaling her to stop.

　"Okay, my injury is not serious anymore. Don't force yourself. You haven't rested well to begin with, and now you're even more tired after all this. See 1毛2线3中文网" Looking at the tiredness on Emilia's face, Lin Xuan shook his head and said helplessly.

　"I didn't force myself, and how could I rest in peace if I hadn't cured your injury?" Emilia defended herself with a slight pout.

　"Okay, I know my own body well. There's nothing serious wrong with me now. Even if the people from the Witch Cult catch up with me again, I can repel them again." Patting his chest lightly, Lin Xuan said that there was nothing wrong with his body.

　I don’t know if it was because of Lin Xuan’s bad mouth, but the dragon carriage stopped as soon as he finished speaking.

　"Hey, hey, hey, are you kidding?" Lin Xuan pulled the corner of his mouth and looked out the window with a look of pain on his face. Following Lin Xuan's line of sight, he could see a group of people wearing strange cloaks, like cultists, blocking the dragon car's path.

　"Am I a bad mouth?" Lin Xuan sighed, holding his forehead.

　Regardless of sighing, Lin Xuan knew that now was not the time for him to act funny. After exchanging a glance with Emilia, Lin Xuan walked out of the dragon carriage with a serious expression. However, before getting off, Lin Xuan woke up Subaru who was still sleeping.

　"They caught up with us so soon. They're just like a dog-skin plaster, sticky and impossible to tear off." Complaining, Lin Xuan nodded to the sisters Rem and Ram, then jumped off the dragon cart.

　"I thought they would catch up with us until dawn, but they caught up with us in the early morning. It really doesn't allow me to sleep well." As he said that, Lin Xuan drew out the Zhanmie sword from its sheath.

　"Ahhhhh, I didn't even kill you! Ahhhhh, I'm so lazy~~~~" Just as Lin Xuan was complaining, a frantic voice echoed from behind the Witch Cult. Simultaneously, the Witch Cult members in the direction of the voice moved aside. Then, a woman with wide eyes and a strange expression stepped out.

　"Tsk!" Although he'd known for a while that he hadn't truly killed Petelgeuse, seeing him resurrected after possessing someone else still irritated him. Furthermore, the number of people sent by the Witch Cult this time far exceeded those of the previous three pursuits. It seemed Petelgeuse was worried that if he continued to run, they would really get away.

　With his back to Emilia and the others, Lin Xuan said solemnly, "Emilia, it won't be as easy to break out this time as last time. Wait and see when the opportunity arises. If you find an opportunity to break out, don't hesitate, rush out immediately. Don't worry about me."

　"It was like this before. Do you still want to face it alone now? Lin Xuan." Emilia said with a complicated expression, biting her lower lip.

　"There's nothing I can do about it. You all know my ability. It doesn't distinguish between friend and foe. If you were here, I would have to be concerned about you when using my ability and wouldn't be able to give full play to it." As soon as Lin Xuan finished speaking, a strange feeling arose in his heart. Lin Xuan knew that it was because Petelgeuse didn't want to wait any longer and had already started to attack.

　"Facing the siege from us, you still have time to chat. You... are so lazy~~~" With a strange arc on his lips, Petelgeuse looked at Lin Xuan coldly.

　"Is that so." With a sneer, Lin Xuan didn't care where those hands were stretched out or where they were going to grab. He directly slashed out dozens of sword auras, forming a sword net, and slashed towards Petelgeuse.

　"Subaru! If you see the pitch-black arm grabbing towards you later, shout out loudly and let Ram cut it off with the wind blade." After giving instructions to Subaru on the dragon chariot, Lin Xuan rushed directly towards Petelgeuse.

　When Petelgeuse launched the attack, he dispersed the witch cultists who were blocking the dragon carriage's way, and gradually surrounded the dragon carriage while attacking it. Fortunately, Emilia, Ram and Rem were still on the dragon carriage. The three of them could use magic, so it was no problem for them to block the attacks of the witch cultists for a while.

　The moment Lin Xuan rushed out, the dark destructive power overflowed from his body, wrapping him up as if he was wearing a dark coat.

　Looking at Lin Xuan who was rushing towards him, Petelgeuse's face did not show any panic, on the contrary, he looked excited. He directed dozens of invisible hands that stretched out from behind him to grab Lin Xuan who had rushed to within three meters of him. He could already foresee what Lin Xuan would look like when he was twisted into a pretzel by the invisible hands.

　The next moment, the scene that Petelgeuse had expected did not appear. In his eyes, when the dozens of dark hands had touched the layer of dark power attached to Lin Xuan, the dark power expanded rapidly as if stimulated by something. In an instant, it turned into a dark hemisphere, wrapping Lin Xuan completely. Not only that, the dark hemisphere was still expanding outward at an extremely rapid speed.

　Faced with the ever-expanding dark hemisphere, Petelgeuse was swallowed up by the dark hemisphere before he could react, along with several Witch Cult members standing next to Petelgeuse.

　The dark hemisphere stopped when its radius expanded to about five meters. After a while, it seemed to have no energy left and dissipated, revealing Lin Xuan hiding in the center of the sphere.

　Lin Xuan's face didn't look very good at this moment. It didn't look like he had used too much magic power, but rather like he was enduring something.

　Gollum—

　As if to avoid Emilia and the others behind him, Lin Xuan swallowed something. After doing this, he swung two blades of energy to either side of him, eliminating the Witch Cultists blocking the dragon chariot's path. Just as he turned around and was about to tell Rem to hurry up, he heard Subaru shout from behind.

　"Lin Xuan, be careful, those hands are on your left!!"

Chapter 57 School

　In the middle of the night, the entire Matou residence was quiet. At this moment, an untimely voice sounded from the yard.

　"Hey, hey - do you want to follow me all the time - ruler?" Sitting cross-legged in the yard, Lin Xuan supported his drooping head with one hand and looked weakly at Joan of Arc who was sitting next to him.

　Although Lin Xuan would not feel unhappy with such a beauty sitting next to him, it would feel a bit weird if the beauty just sat there seriously and looked at him without saying a word.

　"No, I'm just curious. Why are you from another world summoned by the Holy Grail of this world?" She blinked her purple eyes and asked curiously.

　"I can't answer this question, because I don't know why I came to this world in the form of a heroic spirit--" Lin Xuan said this while looking at Joan of Arc beside him.

　"Is that so——" Joan of Arc (hx) murmured with her head lowered.

　Unlike Lin Xuan who was sitting cross-legged, Joan of Arc was sitting quietly at the edge of the corridor, with her slender legs hanging quietly, and sometimes she would deliberately shake them a few times, showing her girlish posture. But it was true, even after becoming a Heroic Spirit, her life was just that of a girl around nineteen years old, unlike Saber and the others. Although their life trajectories were different, there was no doubt that both of them had experienced a life that was not short, and their personalities were more mature than those of ordinary girls.

　Only then did Lin Xuan take a good look at Jeanne. Since she was not in combat, the ruler was not wearing armor made of magic, but was dressed in casual clothes.

　Like Saber and the others, Jeanne also had a petite figure. Her upper body was dressed in a white sleeveless shirt with a dark blue tie, which gave her a fresh and comfortable feeling even on this bitter winter night. The arc of her chest was supported, which added a lot of points to her appearance. Her lower body was a pair of dark purple shorts, and her slender legs were wrapped in dark purple stockings. Although her face was almost the same as Saber and the others, Jeanne's eyebrows lacked the majesty of a king, but had a more holy look. Combined with the pale silver moonlight, she looked even more holy. Even Lin Xuan couldn't help but sigh, "She is truly worthy of being called a saint."

　However, after sighing for a moment, he looked away.

　All of a sudden the scene became quiet, and the two of them just sat there quietly.

　As if to break the sudden silence, Jeanne swayed her slender legs, squinted her eyes at the moon hanging high in the sky, and said with emotion, "To be honest, when I met that Saber in the white dress, I was really stunned. I didn't expect that there would be two people in the world who looked so similar and had no blood relationship. But when I learned that there was another Saber who looked like her, I was shocked and speechless.

　"Anyone who encounters this kind of thing will be surprised--" Lin Xuan shrugged and smiled, while muttering in his heart, 'If you knew that there were several other heroic spirits who looked like this, you would be so shocked--' Of course, Lin Xuan would definitely not say this.

　Although it was not obvious, Joan of Arc still noticed the strange look that flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes. Her eyes rolled in her eye sockets and she looked at Lin Xuan with some confusion, but it was only a flash, so Joan of Arc didn't dare to ask any further. She could only suppress her curiosity and not ask any more.

　……

　Just like that, the two of them stayed there all night long. Although they didn't chat all the time, they still chatted with each other from time to time. Although they fell into silence again after a few words, because the night was long, they still talked about many topics. Although they couldn't say that they understood each other, at least, the intermittent chatting throughout the night allowed them to have a general understanding of each other.

　Because the weekend has passed and a new week has begun, it is time for Sakura and Rin to go to class, and it is natural for Heroic Spirits such as Lin Xuan to accompany them to class.

　Originally, Lin Xuan thought that Ruler would still be attached to someone else's physical body and would not be able to spiritualize, but the facts disappointed Lin Xuan. This time, Ruler was the same as an ordinary servant. She was summoned from the Throne of Heroes by the Holy Grail and given a physical body, so she also had the ability to spiritualize. Saber (White) also had the ability to spiritualize, so in the end, the only ones who did not have the ability to spiritualize were Saber (Blue) and Lin Xuan.

　Although it is a bit inconvenient for Lin Xuan and Saber (blue) to be unable to transform into spirits, fortunately, through Lin Xuan's control of the airflow, the refractive index of light is changed, making the two of them invisible.

　The four heroic spirits followed Rin and Sakura in such a mighty manner.

　In reality, no Master would typically order a Servant to attack another Master during the day, so the campus was quite safe during the day. Darkness soon fell, and the once bustling campus gradually quieted down as students gradually left. Unlike Saber (white), who constantly guarded Lin Xiang, Lin Xuan was now comfortably lounging on the rooftop. Jeanne d'Arc and Saber (blue), who sat beside him, looked at each other helplessly and sighed.

　There is a reason why Lin Xuan can lie here so peacefully instead of staying by Xiaoying's side to protect her. Now, the air flow in the entire school is controlled by him, so every move of everyone in the school is under Lin Xuan's surveillance.

　At this moment, as if sensing something, Lin Xuan sat up and said, "Here it comes——"

　Jeanne d'Arc and Saber (blue), who were not far from Lin Xuan, heard Lin Xuan's words clearly. Ruler was fine, but Saber (blue) stood up suddenly, with a sharp light flashing in her eyes. Just when she was about to enter combat state, she was interrupted by Lin Xuan.

　"Why are you stopping me--" Saber (blue) looked at Lin Xuan in confusion and asked with a somewhat bad expression.

　"That's not your thing, Saber (blue) - we just need to sit and watch carefully -" As he said that, Lin Xuan stood up, walked to the edge of the roof, and looked in the direction of what he had discovered.

　At this time, in the direction that Lin Xuan was looking at, a blue figure was moving towards the school.

Chapter 1: Saber (White) and Lancer's Battle

　"Lancer?" Lin Xuan muttered as he watched the blue figure approaching the school. At this moment, Jeanne and Saber also walked to Lin Xuan's side and looked in the direction he was looking.

　Obviously, the approaching blue figure came into their sight.

　The blue figure was very fast and soon sneaked into the campus. However, as soon as he entered the campus, he was greeted by a sharp sword energy.

　"—"

　As the blue figure stepped into the campus, he suddenly felt a hint of cold aura enveloping him, as if it was leading him to death. Even though his naked eyes had not yet caught the trajectory of the attack, he relied on his long-honed intuition to suddenly leap behind him.

　laugh--

　The next moment, a sharp sword energy passed by where he was originally standing, cutting the ground, and a hideous sword mark suddenly appeared on the ground.

　"Tsk—" With a disgusted sound, the blue figure stood firm, his hands tightly grasping the red spear, his center of gravity lowered, as if preparing for the next attack.

　"This fierce sword energy, it's Saber, right—" Squinting his eyes, he looked at the white figure in front of him and said solemnly in a blue tights suit.

　"Look at your weapon, you are a Lancer, right?" The person who spoke was Rin's servant, Saber (White). At this moment, she was holding the holy sword wrapped in the Wind King's barrier, the Sword of Promised Victory (Excalibur).

　"Huh—I didn't expect that I could encounter a Heroic Spirit just by walking around and gathering some information—" Lancer continued speaking while looking at the figure standing behind Saber (White) with a grin.

　"But your Master seems quite bold, wandering around with his Heroic Spirit in the middle of the night—"

　"Hmph..." Lancer's words made Rin snort coldly, "Saber (White), stop talking nonsense with him, defeat her——"

　"Yes—" After receiving Rin's order, Saber (White) released a stream of magical power from her body, disrupting the airflow around her body. The next moment, holding an invisible sword, Saber (White) rushed towards Lancer.

　"Gu--" At the same time, the red spear in Lancer's hand began to shine, and the spear he swung out was like an explosive, exploding all the air that blocked the spear.

　boom--

　The invisible sword and the long spear collided with each other, and the wind pressure generated by the collision overflowed in all directions, disrupting the airflow around them, causing violent airflows to sweep around continuously, and the smoke and dust that were rolled up forced Rin, who was standing behind Saber (white), to stretch out his hands to cover himself.

　"Is this a battle between Heroic Spirits? It's just the aftermath of a battle, yet it can unleash such power—" Looking at the two Heroic Spirits constantly clashing in the field, Rin was secretly surprised.

　At this time, Lin Xuan and the other two were on the rooftop, carefully watching the battle in front of them.

　Watching the fierce battle between Lancer and Saber (White) on the school playground, Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow and said with emotion, "As expected of a man known as the Son of Light, his skills are truly admirable."

　"Hmm!!" Joan of Arc widened her purple eyes and looked at Lin Xuan curiously, "Why do you know Lancer's real name—"

　"——Secret——" He narrowed his eyes, gave Joan of Arc a mysterious smile, and did not answer Joan of Arc's questions.

　"You--" Joan of Arc glared at Lin Xuan, gritted her teeth, and turned her face away as if she was angry, ignoring him.

　In response, he could only shrug his shoulders, thinking, "I can't tell you that I traveled through time and space, and before that, I learned a lot about the Holy Grail War?"

　At this time, the door to the rooftop was opened.
