Pendragon's Infinity Gauntlet

The blower stood in Rin Tohsaka's arms, licking its paws and washing its face.

The familiar she threw away did not fall to the ground due to gravity, but instead flapped its crystal-like wings and hovered up and down in front of the window glass.

"I'm going to bed first."

Pendragon had already checked the refrigerator, ruling out the possibility of Rin making a midnight snack. It would be better to wash up and go to bed early, and wait for tomorrow's breakfast.

Before that, take a hot bath...

"Um--"

The water was very hot, but given her constitution, even being boiled in boiling water wouldn't necessarily cause her any problems; this 70 or 80 degree hot water was nothing to her.

Pendragon closed his eyes comfortably and slowly immersed himself in the bathtub.

After petting the cat for a while, Miss Rin released the familiar she had made from her house to gather intelligence. Remembering that Pendragon was already asleep, she realized she was a little tired and patted her shoulders as she walked towards the bathroom.

At times like this, the best thing to do is take a hot bath and then snuggle into a warm bed...

Realizing the wonder of this, the young lady's face broke into a silly grin, and she began to look forward to it.

Servants are such a good thing; they can fight, warm the bed, and you get a free bonus with every purchase.

As soon as I opened the door, a wave of steam and heat hit me, carrying a faint fragrance.

Saber's glasses sat on the sink, and a silver-gray ahoge (cowlick) peeked lazily out of the bathtub, its soft appearance making it seem as if it were about to melt away in comfort.

"what?"

"It's so comfortable."

Pendragon stood up from the hot water, stretched, and then the bathroom door slammed shut with a loud bang.

"cut."

Pendragon put on his glasses, and the flow of time returned to normal. Intending to tease Rin, he didn't even wrap himself in a towel, but simply used magic to dry his hair before opening the door and walking out.

At the doorway, Rin was seen with her back pressed against the wall, her face flushed, panting heavily, as if she were hiding from something.

"Hey, what's with that guilty look on your face? You look like you've done something wrong."

Following the sound, Rin looked over and saw that Saber was even more outrageous than she had been in the bathroom. She was so shocked that she turned her head away quickly before she could even see clearly, her breathing rapid as if she were still in shock.

This reaction was quite amusing, and although it was a bit hard to understand why she was so shy, it didn't stop Pendragon from making sarcastic remarks.

"Why are you blushing? Everyone's the same, especially since there's also the Shadow Priest."

Pendragon waved his hand in front of Rin Tohsaka's tightly closed eyes. Sensing this gesture, Rin did not open her eyes, but instead stammered out a call.

"Idiot! Put your clothes on!"

"Tch, it's boring."

After realizing that Rin Tohsaka refused to open her eyes no matter what, Pendragon pinched her nose before walking away.

"call……"

Rin Tohsaka only opened her eyes and let out a long sigh of relief after Saber's footsteps disappeared at the end of the corridor.

"Wait a minute! We're all girls, why am I reacting so strongly?"

As if just realizing what was happening, Rin Tohsaka didn't know what was wrong with her and could only cover her face.

Father, I have disgraced my Masters.

After taking a bath with mixed feelings, Miss Rin hesitated for a long time at the door of her bedroom before finally pushing the door open and going in.

Saber was lying in bed reading a book, with no particular expression...emmmmm, I guess he's always been expressionless.

"Go, go past the point."

This time it was finally Rin Tohsaka's turn to put Pendragon to sleep. Perhaps because she had just taken a bath, her face was still flushed.

"Huh? You're getting into bed already?"

Pendragon looked up from his book at Rin, who was sitting on the edge of the bed in her pajamas.

"Huh? What else? You can't possibly not even let me use the bed, can you? Let me make this clear, this is my bed! Mine!"

Miss Rin misunderstood, her beautiful blue-green eyes glaring at Pendragon.

What did you say while you were eating my dessert at lunchtime today?

"What? I mean..."

Rin's eyes widened, then she suddenly realized.

She remembered that when Saber was telling her to be careful not to gain weight, she mentioned that she should do push-ups before bed.

"I'm not doing it anymore. I'll just get fat, I don't have a boyfriend anyway."

Pendragon rolled his eyes and moved to the side.

It’s so cool…

Miss Rin happily snuggled into the covers, the warm and soft feeling almost making her laugh out loud. So this is what it feels like to have someone warm your bed!

Rin Tohsaka didn't go out on the last day of the weekend. Those two familiars were enough to scout the situation. Besides, she had to go to school the next day, and she needed to adjust her biological clock to avoid being late.

The ingredients were bought by Pendragon. It has to be said that Rin Tohsaka's cooking skills far surpass those of the restaurants in the new capital. The food was delicious and visually appealing, and the only thing missing from Master Chef's skill was a glowing special effect.

P.S.: I was going to update this weekend, but for some reason, I've been really tired these past few days since the cat arrived, and even my appetite has decreased. So I'll skip it this week and update when I feel better, lol. Sorry. a v28565636

Chapter 77 Lily-chan's Unbridled Behavior

Chapter 77

-

"Looks like our efforts were worthwhile."

Standing at the school gate, the feeling of being enveloped by a barrier had disappeared.

The third Master in the school was probably intimidated by himself and did not choose to repair the barrier.

Good morning, Tohsaka.

Behind the two, Lily, dressed in her school uniform, greeted Rin.

Good morning, Lily.

Rin Tohsaka turned gracefully, her long, flowing twin-tailed hair swaying in the air like ribbons.

Both are exceptionally beautiful women, and standing together in matching uniforms, they are particularly attractive.

However, the two of them were already used to the various kinds of gazes from boys and simply ignored them.

"Good morning, Archer."

After greeting Lily, Miss Rin looked at the air next to her and revealed a top-notch smile.

"Hmph, where's your Saber? Coming to school without a Servant? There's a limit to your stupidity."

He responded to Rin's greeting with an arrogant, self-important tone.

"...She used to say she was an Assassin, and now I believe her."

Rin looked at "Saber" standing next to her with a speechless expression. She could see her clearly, but no one else, whether Servant or human, seemed to be able to see her.

"Ok??"

Archer's questioning voice and Lily's bewildered expression made Rin sigh and say helplessly, "No, it's nothing, just pretend I was talking nonsense."

Despite feigning helplessness, the smug tone of someone showing off a treasure was impossible to hide.

A sense of superiority arises spontaneously.

"By the way, Lily, aren't you participating in club activities today?"

Miss Rin stays up all night practicing magic, while the school clubs also have activities early in the morning, which members cannot miss.

In order to sleep a little longer in the morning, and also for the sake of her liver and hairline, Rin Tohsaka has never participated in any clubs, which has puzzled some people for quite some time.

It's almost unbelievable that a top student like her, who is an all-around excellent student, neither joined any clubs nor participated in the student council election.

That's why Rin found it strange that Lily-chan brought Archer to meet her at the school gate today.

It's worth noting that Lily not only participated in clubs, but was also the president of the Kendo club, so she should have been one of the first people to arrive at the school.

"The club hasn't had any activities recently."

Nevertheless, Lily-chan still carried the knife bag with her.

"Eh?"

Rin walked alongside Lily, a rather surprised expression on her face, and asked curiously, "Doesn't the kendo club organize training every day except weekends?"

"I am the president of the company."

When Lily answered Rin Tohsaka's question, a rather subtle smile appeared on her face. If her expression had been a few degrees more smug and arrogant, it could have been translated directly as, "Sorry, having power really does mean you can do whatever you want."

"..."

Rin, who had just shown off her Servant skills in front of Lily, was immediately outmaneuvered, and by the very opportunity she herself had provided...

At times like this, all she can do is offer an awkward but polite smile.

Well, this guy is destined to become a Heroic Spirit, or perhaps it's due to his powerful bloodline and extraordinary talent.

In short, the rumor is that she challenged and defeated the then third-year kendo club president and seniors when she was a first-year student, thus winning the position of club president...

Rin is starting to believe it.

Although Lily is a great beauty, Rin Tohsaka had no doubt about her swordsmanship.

The two were not in the same class, and after walking together for a while, they parted ways in the corridor.

Good morning, Tohsaka-senpai.

Pendragon encountered a junior with purple hair, and upon closer inspection of her features, it became clear that she resembled Rin somewhat.

Good morning, Sakura. Do your best today too!

"Th-thank you, Tohsaka-senpai."

Perhaps because class was about to start, the two didn't exchange more than a few words, only nodding to each other...

No, Miss Rin simply nodded, while the latter, showing the full respect due to a junior, bowed to her.

"What the hell?"

"Yes...no, it's not."

Rin was about to ask Pendragon how he knew, but she realized her mistake halfway through her sentence and quickly shook her head as if she were very troubled, saying, "Her surname is Matou."

Pendragon simply said "Oh," too lazy to offer any words of advice. Rin Tohsaka was already an adult; she had to handle some things on her own.

The morning flew by, and Pendragon had probably read about a tenth of a famous book.

No matter what the content is, Pendragon can now read it all, finding satisfaction in the act of "reading" itself. The feeling of turning the pages is wonderful, and it would be even better if there were a kotatsu and tangerines.

Hearing the lunch break bell, Pendragon glanced back at Rin, who was organizing her notes behind him, jumped down from the windowsill, and silently followed his Master with his own oversized bento box.

"please."

Rin also gave her own bento to Pendragon.

Don't overthink it. It's not about giving her the food, but about asking her to help heat it up.

When Pendragon releases energy strings, it can influence not only the laws of the universe, but also the motion of molecules by controlling the frequency of the vibrations.

The polar molecules in food are attracted by this force and oscillate rapidly at a rate of 2.45 billion times per second. The macroscopic manifestation of this oscillation is that the food is being heated.

This is actually the principle behind a microwave oven...

The two had lunch at the place where Makoto had fought, and lingered for a while to bask in the not-so-warm sun. Rin gave herself ten minutes and walked gracefully toward the classroom.

“Hey, Lily.”

Rin Tohsaka greeted an acquaintance at the classroom door with great pleasure.

Compared to Rin, who had just enjoyed a hot lunch and some sunshine, Lily wasn't in such a good mood.

"Tohsaka, come with me for a moment."

Lily's ahoge (cowlick) hung down naturally, and she hadn't evolved into a Saber-like form, so Rin Tohsaka couldn't judge her mood based on that.
