Super God: If I punch you, you will die

Sakura bowed and walked away into the distance. Suddenly, she turned around and spoke to Lin Yan again.

"Then, senior, do your best today too."

Lin Yan watched Matou Sakura leave, then turned around and saw a large face—it was the student council president.

"Why are you with Tohsaka, Lin Yan!"

Good morning, Liudong classmate. You're really energetic this early in the morning.

"I had a bad feeling when I woke up this morning, but I never expected it to be a hidden sword attack."

"Lin Yan, come here quickly! You'll get poisoned if you get close to Rin Tohsaka!" The student council president grabbed Lin Yan's hand and pulled him away into the distance without saying another word, while Rin Tohsaka left in another direction.

"Lin Yan, come to the rooftop for lunch break." As they parted, Lin Yan clearly heard Rin Tohsaka say in the softest voice.

Lunch break.

"You're so slow! What are you doing, Lin Yan?"

"I also thought it was too slow, so I brought a gift, but judging from your expression, you probably don't need it."

"You seem dull, but you're actually quite thoughtful."

"It's just occasionally. Come on, move over there a little more. It'll get chilly here, and people will see us." Lin Yan handed the canned coffee to Rin Tohsaka.

"Thank you. I'll buy black tea next time. If I drink instant tea, it'll be milk tea. Other expressions of gratitude will be less effective, so I need to be careful."

"Okay, I'll remember next time. So what brings you to a place like this? You chose a secluded spot, so I guess it's about that."

"Of course. Otherwise, what else could there be between Lin Yan and me besides that matter?"

"What is it?"

You are very cold.

"Because it's cold, I want to finish as soon as possible. Aren't you cold?" Lin Yan said, avoiding the main point, but to be honest, the rooftop was indeed a bit chilly.

"Of course I want to get this over with as soon as possible!" Rin Tohsaka seemed a little conflicted, unsure how to begin. She paused briefly, then her furrowed brows relaxed, and she said, "Never mind. I'll just ask directly, Lin Yan. What are your plans after school?"

"After school? No, I don't plan on that. I'll help out if there's anything the student council needs, otherwise I'll get a part-time job."

"Ok?"

Rin Tohsaka remained noncommittal.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

"Although what happens to you is none of my business, let me give you some advice. Since we're in a cooperative relationship now, Lin Yan is far too immature for a magician."

"Is that the same thing again? I'm tired of hearing 'immature' from a magician. I'll take it to heart, so don't bully me too much."

"I wasn't bullying you. After all, your strength speaks for itself, who would dare to bully you? But as a magician, you are indeed not very mature. I only said 'immature' because Lin Yan didn't seem to notice the school's barrier."

"The area is a bit too large."

"How did you know? It was a barrier set up by another master. It's a very large barrier; once activated, it will cover the entire school."

"One type is the kind that steals the flesh and blood of humans within the barrier. Although it seems like they're still preparing, everyone's spirits are already low, which I can still notice, even though I don't have much magic power."

Lin Yan had of course already sensed the existence of the barrier; a barrier of this level could be detected without any magic power.

Toosaka Rin nodded.

indeed.

Although Lin Yan is not a qualified magician, his strength is undeniable; his sheer ability alone is enough to overwhelm opponents on an almost cheat-like level.

"That is, there is an owner in the school. Lin Yan also sensed it to some extent; it seemed that there was a kind of power circulating, though it was very weak."

“Yes, there are indeed enemies lurking in the school.” Rin Tohsaka affirmed, as she was a genuine magician and could naturally detect subtle differences.

"So, does Tohsaka know who that owner is?"

"I don't know. I have some speculations, but no concrete evidence. Although I know there is another magician at the school, a magician is not necessarily a master. There are also cases like you, an outsider, becoming a master, so I can't make a definitive statement."

"I'm not an amateur, I'm a real magician. And another magician is at the school. Isn't that interesting?"

"Yes. But that guy doesn't have the feel of a master. We investigated from the beginning; he has neither Command Seals nor the aura of a Servant. Of course, if he hides it very cleverly, that's another story, but in any case, that guy can't be a master."

"Recently, I've sensed a faint, yet undetectable, magical energy within the school buildings. While it should be the aura of an enemy, it's... too subtle to detect."

"Isn't he the master of magicians? Tohsaka must be quite certain of that. I believe it, that's why there are so many magicians in our school."

"There aren't that many, it's just me and that child. Magicians value family lineage, right? With two families rooted in this small place, they'd inevitably become acquainted."

"Is that so? But I don't know anything about the Tohsaka family."

"Your father must have been a wolf who ran away from the association. Although he happened to like this town and settled down, Fuyuki Town is under my family's jurisdiction. If we knew, we would be exploited, so he kept it a secret because he didn't want that. He died when I was young. But he had lived a long time, so he died a natural death. There's nothing to be sad about."

Rin Tohsaka smiled as she said this, a hint of sadness inadvertently showing through her.

She opened the coffee cup, sipped it slightly, and closed it again, seemingly wanting to end the conversation.

"Back to the main point. In short, there are only two magicians in Fuyuki Town. The other magicians are probably from other places, or they are special cases who were selected because they only have a superficial understanding of magic."

Rin Tohsaka continued talking to herself.

“I know. But my master, who only has a superficial understanding of magicians, shouldn’t be able to set up this kind of barrier, right?”

"Maybe it wasn't the master who arranged it, but the servant. Servants can't choose their masters. When faced with a master like Lin Yan, the servant has no choice but to make their own plans, otherwise they have no chance of winning, right?"

"That's true. Although I'm unhappy, I can't object, so I'll just agree."

"Yes, that's good. Now, speaking of barriers, this barrier is very advanced. It's almost at the level of magic. A magician who can do something like this can't hide their magical power. So I think this barrier must have been set up by a Servant."

"It was done by the servant. The master himself isn't such a dangerous guy, is he?"

"How could that be? Whether he's a magician or an ordinary person, that guy must be an anomaly who defies the rules. If he knew he had another master, he would definitely come to kill him."

"Is it breaking away from the rules, the rules of the Holy Grail War?"

"No. It's the rule of being human. That guy lost his humanity when he set up this barrier."

"This barrier, in its final stages, will dissolve and absorb every single human within it. We'll be like animals in their stomachs. No, those of us who can protect ourselves with magic might not be affected."

"But those who have no magic power will inevitably weaken and die without realizing it."

"This is no longer just about dragging ordinary people into it. As soon as this barrier activates, everyone in the school will be killed. The guy who created this reckless barrier is the master of this school."

"Shhh."

Lin Yan made a shushing gesture.

In an instant, space seemed to distort and shift. Rin Tohsaka also noticed the changes happening at the school and frowned.

"Tohsaka. Can that barrier be destroyed?"

"I've tried, but it didn't work. Although I found all the base points of the barrier, I can't eliminate them. All I can do is temporarily weaken the power of the base points and postpone the activation of the barrier."

"Then as long as Tohsaka is there, the barrier cannot be activated?"

"I'd like to believe that, but it's probably not that easy. The barrier has already been set up and is gradually accumulating magic power in preparation for activation. Arher estimates it will be fully ready in eight days."

"At that time, if either the master or the servant has this intention, this school will become hell."

"So, before that."

"The only way is to defeat the master lurking in this school. But finding him will be difficult. We can say he's won when we get him to set up this barrier. Because he only needs to wait quietly for the barrier to activate, and he doesn't need to show himself until then. So, if we're talking about opportunities..."

"Only when he shows up?"

"That's right. That's exactly how it is, so just behave now. You'll have to fight back then even if you don't want to, and it would be stupid to search for someone and let them find out, right?"

At that moment, the bell rang.

Lunch break is over.

"Lin Yan, can you find a way to solve this? Since you can sense the aura, maybe you can track it down, or I can track it down while you handle the rest. In short, we absolutely cannot put all the students and teachers in danger. I told you, that person might be someone who has abandoned humanity and would never care about anyone else's life. I'm begging you, please... with my current strength..."

"Ah."

Lin Yan nodded.

He didn't want to see a bloodbath, especially since Rin Tohsaka had asked him for a favor. Who could refuse a request from such a cute, tsundere girl? However, finding this person would be quite difficult.

Then, Lin Yan said to Rin Tohsaka.

"Go home by yourself after school. Don't wander around, or you can wait for me and we can go home together."

"But I have somewhere to go after school."

"Together."

Lin Yan said directly.

If the hidden Master at the school isn't found right now, Rin Tohsaka is in considerable danger, so it's safer for her to stay together.

Rin Tohsaka nodded and left.

Before they knew it, it was time to leave school, and almost all the students had left. Rin Tohsaka's original plan was canceled, so everyone went home.

Meanwhile, Saber was still pondering the matter of the school's hidden master.

“Maybe it’s too late. Maybe everyone already thinks that way about me,” Saber murmured to herself, looking quite distressed.

"That master intends to use the people in the school as sacrifices."

"That's basically it. But we'll need to spend some time with that person. Lin Yan and Rin Tohsaka agree that it's safe for now."

"I agree. It will take time to complete such a large-scale barrier. Since schools are easy to seal off, they are probably being used as altars for temples. It will take at least ten days to fully activate such a large-scale barrier."

"I felt something was wrong two days ago, on Saturday, so there are still eight days left."

"Yes. Whether the barrier is for collecting sacrifices or for defense, it will be troublesome once it's completed. We need to find the person who set up the barrier before that."

"That's true. It'll be a bit difficult, since finding people isn't my specialty, but since he's lurking in the school, he should be easy to locate. Let's find a way to get him to stop the barrier."

However, the situation is also very serious. If we really can't find that guy, then there's someone who has absolutely no ability to protect himself.

They will all vanish like bubbles, completely disappearing.

disappear……

It's terrifying that everyone could disappear. Such a large-scale disappearance would inevitably cause social unrest.

"What kind of servant did that guy bring with him?"

Lin Yan seemed somewhat interested. Perhaps, as Rin Tohsaka said, the master was weak, but the servants might be very strong. Currently, there are the following individuals: Hassan-Sabach (Cursed Arm), Zouken Matou, Medusa, Shinji Matou, Kirei Kotomine, Cú Chulainn, Heracles, Illyasviel von Einstères, Medea, Katsuragi-sensei, Rin Tohsaka, Emiya, Gilgamesh, Kirei Kotomine, and Kojiro Sasaki, Medea.

These messages all appeared suddenly on the system screen.

So, could it be Shinji Matou who appeared at the school?

Medusa?

In the Fifth Holy Grail War, the Masters were Shinji Matou and Sakura Matou.

The Master who summoned her was Matou Sakura. He cared deeply for Matou Sakura, and he considered Sakura's gradually distorted way of life, superimposed with his own position of being despised by the gods, and earnestly thought about her well-being.

She would do almost anything for Sakura, and in fact, she was constantly busy for Sakura throughout the Fate arc. However, due to the use of the "Book of False Servants" to transfer control, she temporarily obeyed Shinji's orders.

Even after being "borrowed" by Shinji, Rider always believed that Sakura was the Master and acted for her sake.

Although Rider doesn't think Shinji is of any benefit to Sakura, it is Sakura's wish, and Sakura has transferred her Master authority through the power of Command Seals, so she mechanically obeys Shinji.

Although Rider's compliance made Shinji arrogant, she didn't take it to heart since she wasn't interested in him.

"Saber, your strength is B-rank for normal attacks but C-rank for your Noble Phantasm. Aren't strength and Noble Phantasm based on different standards? Even if the rank is low, your Noble Phantasm is still a powerful weapon, right? So, if we were to convert it to strength, wouldn't it reach A-rank?"

"Yes. Noble Phantasms are incomparable to ordinary attacks. A C-rank Noble Phantasm is equivalent to an A or A+ in terms of ordinary abilities. However, the principle of protecting Berserkers is beyond the laws of physics."

"That's a concept where even a Noble Phantasm capable of destroying the entire world can be nullified as long as it's below A-rank. Berserker Hercules is a hero possessing divinity. Without an equal level of mystery, one cannot interfere with a hero who has received divine blood. No matter what kind of Heroic Spirit it is, there will always be a weakness."
