"That's enough, Saber. It seems your master has arrived." Assassin suddenly stopped fighting. He sensed a powerful aura approaching from afar in an instant, and before he could even react, he had already seen the figure.

It was as if a god had descended.

An aura that only the strong can sense.

Lin Yan stood at a distance, watching silently. Just watching silently was enough to make Assassin abandon the idea of ​​engaging in a fierce battle.

“If this continues, it won’t just be our duel anymore. You have to thank your master; if it weren’t for his arrival, I believe you wouldn’t have had a chance to leave here,” Assassin said. Saber only then realized that Lin Yan had arrived, but she had no intention of giving up the fight.

As for why she acted on her own, Saber planned to figure it out later, and how to explain it to Lin Yan.

"Wait a minute! Aren't you going to settle this, Assassin!"

"If you insist on crossing this mountain gate, then let's settle this with a fight. No matter who it is, I will not allow them to pass through this gate. Unfortunately, this is the only job I have. If you want to go back, I will not stop you. However, the scoundrel hiding over there is a different story. An opponent who does not meet my standards cannot pass through, whether dead or alive."

After saying that, Assassin vanished without a trace.

"Saber?"

Saber's armor vanished, and she appeared weak, even staggering slightly. Lin Yan used a quick teleportation to catch her and prevent her from falling. However, Saber remained motionless, her eyes closed in pain. Lin Yan scooped Saber up in his arms and rushed home as fast as he could.

"Really, how could he suddenly faint?" Lin Yan was both angry and annoyed. In the end, he still didn't understand Saber's thoughts. If he had noticed something was wrong with him earlier, he could have stopped him sooner. At least if he had gone with him, they wouldn't have encountered any danger.

Lin Yan stared at Saber, who was still fast asleep on the bed.

"Never mind. I'll teach you a lesson when you wake up, Saber."

Suddenly, Lin Yan sensed a presence.

Turning around, I saw Rin Tohsaka.

"Tohsaka?"

"If you have no objection, you can continue. I just got up to get some water."

"It's a long story, but all I did was take Saber to her room!"

"Hmm. More or less."

"He clearly sounded completely clueless!"

"I told you I understood. Saber went to fight alone, and you went to stop her, right? Then something went wrong and Saber fainted and came back. Is that okay?"

"You're absolutely right. But how do you know all that?"

"Of course I understand. There's a high chance Saber will fight alone, and the master will know when the Servant starts fighting. So this development is entirely within the predictable range."

"so.

"What are you going to do? Are you going to take Saber to her room? Even if she's a Servant, I think she'll catch a cold sleeping here."

"No, just say I'm taking her to my room right now."

"Rin Tohsaka. Excuse me, could you please look after Saber?" Lin Yan said to Rin Tohsaka.

"Could you make some tea? I'm quite interested in what you're about to say."

Lin Yan glanced at Saber again and then walked towards the kitchen.

"She probably doesn't want Japanese tea. But we only have tea bags for black tea." Lin Yan said as he brewed the tea, just as Rin Tohsaka's voice came from behind him.

"Lin Yan, can you come here for a second?"

"Wait a moment. I'll be right there."

At this moment, Saber had regained consciousness. She was dressed in Western clothes, and Rin Tohsaka was sitting next to her.

"Isn't Saber asleep?"

"Did you sleep? But you wouldn't sleep forever; you just woke up. It seems like you used a lot of magic in one go, and your body shut down on its own. Like a safety switch on an electrical circuit. It forces the power off because it would short-circuit."

"Saber, do you know what you're doing!?"

"It's impossible that I didn't know. I went to Ryudouji Temple and fought the assassins. At that time, the battle was interrupted because I noticed the third Servant who was monitoring our fight."

"Why do you want to fight?!"

"Is it this question again? It's natural for Servants to fight. Lin Yan, you are the master, why are you telling me not to fight?"

"It's unacceptable for girls to get hurt. As a man, I can't just stand by and watch that happen. So, rather than letting you fight, I'll fight myself."

"Because I'm a girl, they won't let me fight!?"

"Are you serious!? Servants are meant to protect their masters. It's only natural that we get hurt; we're called out for that very reason! Servants have no gender, and are you going to treat me, a samurai, as a woman?! Please correct what you just said, Lin Yan!" Saber glared angrily at Lin Yan. She clearly knew that Lin Yan's strength was more than enough to crush most opponents, yet she still chose to risk fighting alone. Lin Yan couldn't understand this; perhaps it was the dignity of a Servant.

"Who wants to correct this! Even though Saber might be very strong, she's still a girl! Stop talking nonsense, you idiot."

"Isn't it you who keeps spouting nonsense! You wouldn't be thinking that you don't like being protected by women, would you!? My body is already a Heroic Spirit, please forget about those trivial matters!"

"What a trivial matter! Honestly, even if Saber could, I couldn't! It's wrong to let someone else fight in my place. I won't do that."

"In short, Saber, don't fight. Fighting is a man's job, so I'll fight. Now you have no objections, right? I'll fight as Saber wishes."

"But that's...."

"Don't say it's your duty anymore. I won't let you get hurt again!" Lin Yan was also a little anxious, so he said in a cold tone.

Is this an order?

"yes!.

“Since it’s an order, I will naturally obey my master’s orders,” Saber said.

Although the ultimate goal was the same, Lin Yan still felt a little awkward. He didn't want to force Saber to obey his orders, but rather to build it on the basis of equality and mutual trust. That way, their acquaintance wouldn't have been in vain, would it?

“Saber, Lin Yan isn’t insulting Servants. Let me interject a bit, otherwise this misunderstanding can’t continue. Simply put, this guy just hates seeing you get hurt,” Rin Tohsaka explained, knowing that Saber had probably misunderstood to some extent.

0085 Kiritsugu - The Quarrel [Please Subscribe]

[If possible, I hope that no one will be sad. If I can use my own power to make others happy, I think that would be the most suitable world for me to live in.] This is Kiritsugu's catchphrase.

Kiritsugu Emiya, once a cheerful and happy young man, lived a life of hiding with his father, Norikazu Emiya—the "Sealing Designated Magician"—who loved him deeply but was hunted by the Mage's Association. They settled down on a small island in Southeast Asia. This peaceful period left Kiritsugu with a happy, warm, and unforgettable memory, and he gradually fell in love with Shirley, the girl who had always cared for and helped them.

Because of an accident during his father's experiment to turn his assistant, Shirley, into a ghoul, the Church's agents and the Mage's Association pursued them, and the island's inhabitants were all wiped out by the agents. Because his father was responsible for this disaster, and unwilling to let the same thing happen elsewhere, he shot and killed his beloved father. Kiritsugu Emiya's life was forever changed.

Later, Natalia Kaminski, who became Kiritsugu Emiya's adoptive mother and mentor, negotiated with the Mage's Association to allow Kiritsugu to inherit 20% of Kiritsugu Emiya's Magic Crest, while she trained him to become a magician assassin who hunts down "illegal" magicians.

During an assassination mission, he and his mentor Natalia hunted down Od Bolzac, a dangerous magician known as the "Messenger of the Demon Bees," who was researching a zombie virus. Although his mentor successfully assassinated the monster on the passenger plane, the Demon Bees leaked throughout the entire plane, turning all 300 passengers except for Natalia Kaminski into ghouls. On the ground, Kiritsugu Emiya scoured the black markets of most of New York to obtain surface-to-air missiles. To prevent the tragedy from escalating, he blasted the plane into the Atlantic Ocean before it landed at the airport.

Kiritsugu desperately searched for survivors in the ravaged lands after the Fourth Holy Grail War, until he found a boy who was still clinging to life. He placed Avalon inside the boy's body, thus reviving him. After the boy recovered from his injuries, Kiritsugu adopted him and named him Shirou Emiya.

These are Kiritsugu Emiya and Shirou Emiya.

"What? I don't know when I fell asleep. When Lin Yan woke up, it was already 6:30 in the morning."

Sunlight streamed in through the window.

"Lin Yan, it's morning. Don't you need to prepare breakfast?"

I overslept. Sorry, I'll get up right away.

"I don't think there's any need to apologize to me, but there really isn't any time to relax. It seems like Sakura and Rin were arguing just now."

"Sakura and Tohsaka are arguing?"

"In a room in Tosaka?"

"No, it's the living room. I only passed by, so I don't know much about it."

"I understand. Anyway, we need to hurry."

Good morning, Saber. Thank you for waking me up.

After Lin Yan finished speaking, he walked towards the corridor, where he saw Rin Tohsaka and Sakura Matou, who were actually arguing.

"Tosaka".

"Good morning. It's really unrefined to shout someone's name so early in the morning." Rin Tohsaka looked over, and at that moment, Lin Yan felt that there didn't seem to be any quarrel.

Good morning, Tohsaka. I heard you and Sakura had a fight, is that true?

"Is that so? You heard it from Saber? Yes, objectively speaking, that's true, but it's not a big deal. It's just that she's told not to come here for the time being."

0086 (Teasing) [Please Subscribe]

"Sakura already refused that request before. Even if we bring it up again, there's no way she'll agree."

"It's impossible, but if there's a deal, I can let her go back. I said if Sakura doesn't come here for a week, I'll go home too. And the deal went through. Sakura went back even though she was reluctant. Oh, and she told me to say hello to Lin Yan."

"What greeting, you?"

"I see. I'm sorry to bother you so early in the morning. You must be in a bad mood, right?" - Tohsaka

"No, there's nothing troublesome or annoying about it. Why would you say something like that, Lin Yan?"

"No. Tohsaka, you and Sakura are very close, aren't you? You probably wouldn't want to ask her to leave face to face. That's why I apologized. I should have cheered up, but I've caused Tohsaka trouble again."

"It's alright. I only sent Sakura away for my own safety. There's no reason for Lin Yan to apologize like this."

"For your own safety, why?"

"Because Shinji is the master, right? If that guy finds out that Sakura is with Lin Yan, he'll definitely see you as a thorn in his side. So it's better not to let Sakura be here before the final battle with Shinji."

"From Shinji's perspective, it's like we're using Sakura as a hostage."

"That's how it is. But even if we ignore that incident, it's still dangerous here, right? It's not good for her to go out too often at night, so it's better for her not to come for now. That's for Sakura's sake, and it's also for ours."

"That's true. Although I feel very sorry for Sakura, I can only apologize to her and ask for her forgiveness later."

"Oh dear, you're really lacking in energy. Where did your fierce temper go when you were yelling at people? Are you so lonely without Sakura around?" Rin Tohsaka seemed to want to ease the current atmosphere, so she made a witty remark with a gloating expression that was somewhat different from her usual self.

"No matter what, Sakura is the symbol of peace here. She fills the gap between me and Fujii. But I have to send her back for my own convenience, so of course I feel heavy-hearted."

"What, you know perfectly well, don't you? Being able to say these things means you've passed. Seems like you're starting to want to win."

"Tosaka".

"Don't understand? So, Sakura will come back as soon as the war ends, right? Even though you said you don't want the Holy Grail, then just fight for the peaceful life we ​​had in the past. See, isn't it good that we understand the purpose?" Rin Tohsaka said calmly, with a composed expression and elegant movements.

"So Sakura won't be coming for the time being?"

"That's how it is. So, how about Sister Teng occasionally stays home to fulfill her filial duties? The old man is lamenting that he doesn't receive any care from his daughter."

"It's okay if Dad doesn't care about him. He won't die even if I'm not around. Besides, if Sakura isn't here, I'll have to be even more determined. Lin Yan is a boy too, what if something happens to him and he has to drop out of school? Can you take responsibility then, Lin Yan?"

"That kind of thing is not..." Lin Yan suddenly stopped and did not continue.

"Lin Yan? What was that pause just now?"

"I don't think it will happen. This isn't just a regular accommodation. I understand that."

"Really? That's great. I can trust you, teacher."

"Of course. Lin Yan is so composed that even I find him somewhat interesting. Rin Tohsaka really enjoys teasing Lin Yan, but it does have a kind of wicked humor to it." At this moment, Rin Tohsaka was still smiling happily.

0087 Rin Tohsaka and Ayako Mitsuzuri [Please Subscribe]

Rin Tohsaka herself knew perfectly well that she couldn't gain any advantage over Lin Yan; most of the time, Lin Yan was just playing along with her. However, Rin Tohsaka still enjoyed it immensely.

Sister Teng, however, actually believed it with a proud expression.

"By the way, Lin Yan. I heard that Mizuki got injured in the archery club incident, did you know?"

"Mitsuzuri? What, did that guy get into a fight with someone from another club again? Honestly, he's almost a third-year student, he needs to be more mature. So, how's his injury? Is it serious?"

"That's fine. It's just a minor sprain. It seems he was attacked by a pervert on his way home. That kid ran really fast, right? He ran away in a flash, but it seems he fell and got hurt."

"I see. It's good that nothing serious happened. But whether that guy was foolish enough to be harassed by a pervert or he had some strange taste, I guess he must have been a stupid pervert. I thought so."

"I thought you didn't run away but knocked out the pervert, right? Sister Teng looked very interested and laughed heartily."

She knows Ayako Mizuki very well.

Ayako Mizuki is a second-year student in Class A at the private Homurahara Academy. She is the captain and head of the academy's archery club. Her famous saying is, "A beautiful woman can't do without martial arts." She is Sakura Matou's senior. The meaning of her name, Mizuki, is "to piece together beauty, and in an ideal state, it is like a piece of azalea fabric."

After entering her third year of high school, she relinquished the captaincy and club president positions to her junior, Matou Sakura. She continued to offer Sakura assistance and advice, acting as an advisor to the archery club. Privately, she maintained a close friendship with Fujimura Taiga and Matou Sakura, ranking among the top three people in the school one should never argue with. She was never late or absent, whether in her class or the archery club.

"Hmm. Because that guy isn't very good at running away. But even so, will Mitsuki be afraid of perverts? Oh well, it's fine. If something like this doesn't happen, that guy won't learn what it means to be a woman."
