He found a clean place nearby, spread a blanket, and took out a basket containing his lunch from somewhere. Li Lin, as if he was having a picnic, calmly spread Lao Gan Ma on the bread.
If the Saint and the Emperor want to quarrel, let them quarrel.
After all, Li Lin still has a little affection for Jeanne d'Arc (only in the final chapter of FGO), but FA is a love-brained person, so excuse her frankly, she just can't be a fan of her.
When I was playing FGO before, both Jeanne d'Arc and Nero and Lee Lin had five treasures. However, even after Jeanne d'Arc's five treasures were strengthened in the later period, she was still a warehouse keeper compared to other servants.
Li Lin, who was in the middle of a rainstorm, just felt the warm sunshine and enjoyed his breakfast.
After beating the defeated dragon for so long, Li Lin was still a little hungry.
But at this moment, Zheng Gong shifted his gaze to Li Lin and showed a very unhappy expression.
"The Master over there, she is your Servant, right?" Jeanne questioned Li Lin, and Li Lin just nodded slightly, admitting the fact, because she dared to take responsibility for her actions. "And her class is an illegal class outside of the regular classes, Emperor."
"So? So what?"
Li Lin took a light bite of the bread and squinted his eyes as he felt the spicy taste dancing on the tip of his tongue.
"As a magician, you should know clearly what Ruler's appearance means."
"Nonsense. Although I have only been here for a year, my intelligence preparation is more complete than anyone else." She even knew Joan of Arc's background clearly.
"The final outcome of this Holy Grail War is unclear, and even ominous. Therefore, we need to summon the Ruler to decide the outcome of this war."
"Yeah, so what, Miss Judge?" Li Lin licked his greasy index finger and waved at her. "Hurry up and get back to work, Saint Lady. It would be bad to be accused of being a salary thief!"
"I'm working! Master of the Tyrant, I now suspect that you are the variable in this Holy Grail War!"
"Oh, that's fair, Miss Saint."
The pink-haired girl laughed disdainfully.
"And then, are you going to arrest me? Or are you going to gather others to attack me?"
"..."
"Excuse me for being blunt - none of you can fight!"
Chapter 28: The Note Left for the Village Girl
Joan of Arc's suspicion of Li Lin and Nero was not a groundless association.
As mentioned before, the emergence of the special class Ruler symbolizes the uncertainty and danger in the final outcome of the Holy Grail War. It can also be said that the restraining force has sensed anomalies that are enough to produce cutting events and singularities.
Therefore, adjudicators are specially dispatched to resolve the issue.
Generally speaking, almost all judges have the skill of "Revelation".
A skill of the same level as "Intuition". However, "Intuition" is a sixth sense that works in battle, while "Revelation" works for everything related to achieving a goal (such as choosing the most suitable path on a journey). Because there is no basis (she thinks so), she cannot explain it clearly to others.
But this time it was different. Not only could Joan of Arc not appear in a normal way, she had to rely on the body of a French high school girl, Leticia, to barely descend. Even the omnipotent revelation had lost its effect.
Coupled with the terrifying fighting power that Li Lin had demonstrated in front of her not long ago, and Nero's emperor rank that was obviously full of tricks, anyone would be suspicious.
Even though other people couldn't tell whether Li Lin was a servant or a master, Joan of Arc, as the referee, could easily see through the pink-haired ball in front of her. After all, there was a big difference in the aura emitted by a living person and a servant.
Moreover, the strange aura surrounding Li Lin made Joan of Arc a little concerned.
Although it sounds incredible, even so outrageous that people who hear it think Joan of Arc has gone crazy, Joan of Arc has to admit that this pink-haired girl has an aura close to "the Lord".
However, it is indisputable that Li Lin is a human being. No matter how much Joan of Arc examined her, she could not find any problem with the girl who was calmly eating bread smeared with Lao Gan Ma.
"How long do you want to stare at me?"
It is true that Li Lin has a good temper, but not to the extent that he would not get angry after being stared at by a "stranger" with subtle eyes for nearly ten minutes.
"The player is right! Haha, you are indeed a country girl from the countryside. You don't even have the most basic manners?" As if he had found a point to criticize Joan of Arc, Nero smiled and echoed Li Lin's remarks.
"Master of the Roman tyrant. What exactly is your wish? As a judge, I have the obligation and the right to confirm this."
It seemed that because she had personally witnessed the strength displayed by Li Lin when he beat the magma dragon, Joan of Arc, who still had some rationality left, did not shout "My Lord is here" and then attack with the battle flag with a sound of Rua, let alone draw her sword and blow herself up to perform an Allak Hukeba and set off a big firework for Li Lin.
In fact, if Li Lin really wanted to take action, he could probably interrupt the Red Lotus Saint's reading with just a slap.
There is no irreconcilable conflict between Li Lin and Jeanne that requires a fight to the death. After all, both of them have the same goal of fighting Amakusa, and Jeanne's presence can also divert the attention of the red and black sides, creating an opportunity for Li Lin to steal the Holy Grail.
Although Li Lin hasn't figured out how to steal or what to do after stealing, this is just like Lady Haidong, she'll get her hands on it first and then think about it, no matter whether she can use it or not. Even if she can't steal it, why isn't she allowed to think about it?
"Oh, you are such a saint who doesn't know how to persuade people politely... Well, since I am in a good mood, I will be merciful and tell you." Li Lin cleared his throat and looked at Jeanne calmly, then said, "I just want to get the Holy Grail. As for how to use it later, that is my business."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Jeanne first made a thoughtful expression.
But soon, she realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Li Lin's words.
Then Joan of Arc looked up and saw Li Lin with a smile on his face, and the Umu monster lying on the picnic blanket next to him, holding his belly and laughing.
"Isn't it the same as if you didn't say anything?!"
"Huh? No? I answered your question quite honestly." Li Lin frowned and shrugged unhappily.
"But is there any difference between your answer and no answer?!"
"Of course. In principle, or objectively based on physical properties, I answered Joan of Arc's question one minute and thirty-five seconds ago by vibrating my vocal cords." Rolling up her sleeves and looking at her watch, the girl said to Joan of Arc in a serious tone.
"Wait, wait a minute, please speak human language, Master of the Tyrant."
Jeanne, a poor student who obviously couldn't understand Li Lin's words very well, looked at her blankly. The scene was probably like when Kiryu Sento tried his best to explain the principle of the belt to Manjo Ryuga, but Ryuga just shook his head in confusion.
When Nero realized that her master was obviously talking nonsense and she had no idea what he was talking about, she laughed even more happily. It was not until Li Lin hit her in the stomach that she stopped laughing as if she had lost her temper.
"This is really troublesome. There is no magician in this world who is more compassionate than me. Even though the lecturers in the Clock Tower and the doctors in the infirmary all say that I am a normal person."
Li Lin spread his hands pretending to be helpless, and considering the difference in combat power and the principle of not using force against an unarmed person, even though the two were close to each other, Li Lin did not take any precautions, and the naive saint had no intention of launching a sneak attack.
"You just asked me what I wanted, didn't you?"
Jeanne thought for a moment and nodded solemnly.
"Then, you asked, and I told you. Right?"
Jeanne, still not realizing the problem, nodded.
"So, I have met your request. It's your own problem that you didn't understand." Li Lin said, and he took out Joan of Arc's lost luggage from somewhere, and then handed it to Joan of Arc who was still nodding foolishly.
"Well, that's true..."
Speaking of it.
Joan of Arc was stunned for a moment as if she had suddenly realized something.
Realizing that Li Lin was deceiving her, she quickly raised her head and tried to refute, but when she raised her neck, Li Lin and Nero had disappeared, leaving only her luggage and a sandwich on the picnic blanket.
"Leave it to the lovely village girl. And I have tried my best to recover the luggage you lost in the battle with the little sun. The child you possessed needs a passport when he returns to his country. At least keep that thing, okay? And, as a gift for our first meeting, I'll leave that sandwich to you - by the unnamed Kamen Rider who passed by."
emmmmmmm
Staring at the sandwich left by Li Lin, Jeanne shook her head.
Even if Joan of Arc jumped off a cliff and starved to death on the streets of Tufalis, she would never touch the food of the suspect Li Lin.
——Gu.
With her face slightly red and holding her stomach, Jeanne looked around. After confirming that Li Lin had disappeared, she reluctantly picked up the sandwich and took a bite, then her eyes widened.
Really fragrant!
"Who are you, anyway?" Joan of Arc thought to herself while chewing the food in her mouth, thinking about the pink-haired girl who had shown her kindness.
Pink hair is quite rare, and it doesn't look like it's dyed.
However, at this moment, a police car stopped not far from Joan of Arc.
The car door opened, and several policemen rushed down from above, pulled out their guns, and surrounded the innocent saint who was still eating breakfast.
"Don't move!"
"..."
Chapter 29: Knowing a Person by His Chest
The sun rises in the east.
On the streets of Tofalis, after getting rid of Joan of Arc's entanglement, Li Lin and Nero sat at a roadside stall and leisurely enjoyed their breakfast.
It seemed that because Li Lin had demonstrated his strength last night, Qianjieshu, or the black side, had no intention of provoking these two.
Western breakfast was very monotonous. Well, so monotonous that Nero, who was used to luxury, was a little dissatisfied. But no matter how dissatisfied he was, Nero still accepted the reality.
Because she knew very well that her master was a poor man.
"Fried eggs, bacon and salt, slices of beef blood sausage, toast, a small piece of butter..." Nero looked at Li Lin with resentment as he poured some kind of canned chili sauce (Laoganma) into the plate.
But it's okay to complain.
"Don't complain so much. I know some magicians who are often attacked by poison and have to get used to shoveling emergency food into their mouths while walking."
"Be thankful. If you were in England, you would only have fish and chips and scones with jam or cream. Do you want to eat barbecue so early in the morning?"
In fact, Li Lin has been cooking Chinese food ever since he moved into the Second's apartment, and Lanis would come to eat whenever she was free. After all, it would be better to expect the doctor to return from the card pool tomorrow than to expect those noble magicians whose heads are full of roots and spells to cook for them personally... Maybe this is the reason why she is willing to let the Second take in Li Lin.
"Please don't do that."
Nero used her fork to hold the butter on the plate and the back of her hand to support her chin. She seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said to Li Lin.
"You are eloquent...Player, you have a mouth that is eloquent and eloquent. I really like you more and more."
The blonde girl's smile is like a rose, but Li Lin is not going to give up the rose that is watching over him in the distance for a beautiful red rose.
"No, I'm not the only one. Everyone in the world has this subtle, complex, hazy tone in their voice, like a way to evade responsibility. I always feel quite confused by this kind of useless high alert and ubiquitous bargaining style of speaking, and I feel very uncomfortable from the bottom of my heart."
The pink-haired girl sighed seldom in front of Nero, with helplessness flashing in her golden eyes. Then, as if she wanted to vent her resentment, she vigorously cut the bacon on the plate. Seeing the childish behavior of her master, Nero smiled brightly.
"Hmm, does the player hate this? I do too, but as an emperor, I have to compromise with my country and people."
"Gentle and correct people always find it difficult to survive because the world is neither gentle nor correct." For this reason, I have to become neither gentle nor correct.
The warm morning sunlight made the girl's profile sparkle, and under Nero's gaze, she spoke with a complicated expression, but then the "vulnerable" side she had shown before quietly disappeared, and the girl returned to her usual state.
"Hey, Nero, have you heard of Dazai Osamu?"
"I have some impression that there is indeed a similar person in the modern intelligence transmitted from the Holy Grail. I remember it was a negative writer in Japan? It seems that he did not ascend to the Throne of Heroes."
"Negative? Well, why not try replacing the word negative with gentle."
"Because he was too much of a perfectionist, his heart could not tolerate the slightest bit of darkness in the world, but he was also too delicate and sensitive, and even a trace of the dark side of human nature could not escape his eyes. He was killed by his talent."
Li Lin made this comment in front of Nero who seemed to understand but not quite.
"So, what kind of person does the player think you are?"
"He is a unique liar in this world, and above that, he is an ordinary human being who can cry and laugh."
A few seconds after Nero asked Li Lin, she expressed her thoughts without hesitation.
"Looking back on the past now, it's all shameful... But I won't regret it, and I won't say I'm sorry for being born as a human being. Because I want to be one of the only witnesses and pass on this memory."
"You keep saying things that are incomprehensible, player," Nero said. "But no matter how ridiculous it sounds, I can feel that it is the real truth."
"Don't trust the words of a liar, Your Majesty."
"Deceiving for the sake of others' happiness is not a good thing, but I think it is a gentle virtue."
As Nero said this, he had already walked to Li Lin's side and hugged her hard.
"What a lovely guy. Since you have a sweetheart, don't show your funny side in front of me, idiot."
"...Yes, yes, I will try my best to make you hate me, so get off me, it's so hot."
Li Lin pushed Nero away from him with a look of disgust, and the lovely emperor also cooperated and loosened his hands.
Perhaps because Li Lin was not a serious magician, the relationship between the master and servant was quite harmonious.
While the two were playing, two familiar figures appeared in Li Lin's eyes at another table not far away.
A magician who is like a lion, and a golden-haired girl who is on all fours confronting a kitten.
The lion Jie Jieli, who was stood up by Li Lin in London, and the rebellious knight Mordred, who was summoned by him and is "the only legitimate heir to King Arthur."
