My fiancée Yukino

Over the course of the morning, Rin Tohsaka gradually adapted to this world twenty years in the future.

Although it has only been twenty years, the world's technology has developed very quickly, and there are still many things that Rin Tohsaka is not used to, not to mention that she is not good at using various electronic devices.

Fortunately, this is Japan, not China, otherwise all the facial recognition payment and mobile payment methods would have completely confused her.

After strolling around the shopping street, Luo Bai bought two sets of clothes for the girl, since she couldn't keep wearing Yukino's clothes like she did today.

Because the outer clothes were too thick, Rin Tohsaka shyly stopped in front of an underwear store and looked at Luo Bai.

"You, wait for me here!"

Luo Bai, naturally aware of the girl's shyness, smiled and nodded.

"Okay, go ahead and choose. I'll just wait here at the cashier to pay."

"...Thanks."

Blushing, Rin Tohsaka thanked them and went into the store to start making her selections.

Luo Bai, who was waiting at the cashier, was soon served a glass of water by a female employee.

"Thank you."

After taking a sip, Luo Bai continued watching Rin Tohsaka, guided by a shop assistant, selecting the items she wanted in the distance.

The cashier smiled and asked, "Sir, aren't you going to offer some advice to your girlfriend?"

Luo Bai smiled and waved his hand: "No, our relationship hasn't reached that stage yet, and she's quite easily embarrassed."

"I see, more than friends but less than lovers?"

Luo Bai smiled but didn't say anything. He couldn't very well say that it was the first time the two of them had met yesterday, could he?

Of course, Luo Bai already knew Rin Tohsaka.

Ten minutes later, Rin Tohsaka quickly finished selecting her items, walked over with a bag in her arms, and gently nudged Luo Bai.

"You're not allowed to look!"

Luo Bai shrugged, turned around, and then heard rustling behind him, as well as the sound of buttons being pressed at the cashier.

"Sir, Madam, the total is forty-three thousand yen."

Goodness, a few sets of thin underwear cost 40,000 yen, that's easy money.

After mentally complaining, Luo Bai turned around, took out his card from his wallet, and handed it over.

"Swipe your card."

After paying, the two left the lingerie store with the clerk's respectful farewell.

Holding the bag in her hand, Rin Tohsaka said softly, "I'm sorry, I didn't know things in this store were so expensive."

Luo Bai smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing. The lingerie stores in this mall aren't cheap; they're all high-end brands. The one we went to isn't even the most high-end. As for the price, if you knew how much Yukino and the others usually spend on clothes, you wouldn't have this thought. Besides, you are, after all, the young lady of the Tohsaka family. Is it really necessary to be so concerned?"

Rin Tohsaka blushed, and said with a hint of frustration, "That's true, but have you forgotten what kind of magic I used?"

"Gem magic, okay, I get it. It will definitely strain our daily expenses, which is understandable."

While this money-sprinkling magic trick is very convenient to use and can unleash strong combat power within a short period of time, it is also very expensive.

Moreover, ten years ago, Tokiomi Tohsaka spent too much of the Tohsaka family's money in preparation for the Fourth Shinobi World War. After his death, Kirei Kotomine didn't know how to manage the family's finances, which resulted in a sharp decline in the Tohsaka family's resources. As a result, Rin Tohsaka, the young lady, often faced a shortage of funds in order to stockpile gems.

Of course, despite the shortage of funds, Rin Tohsaka still has ten jewels as her trump cards, each containing a total of more than ten years' worth of magical power.

Thinking of this, Luo

Bai asked, "Do you need me to collect some gems for you?"

Rin Tohsaka was very tempted, but in the end she shook her head and refused.

"No, I still have some left, that should be enough."

"alright."

Although Rin Tohsaka said that, Luo Bai still planned to prepare something for her in the next two days, just in case.

At noon, they found a nice Chinese restaurant outside and had lunch with Rin Tohsaka before returning to the base.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Lucoa smiled and said, "Although it's a bit early, I'm all ready. Shall we begin?"

Rin Tohsaka said expectantly, "From now on, please take good care of me, Lucoa-sensei!"

Lucoa was very happy to be called "teacher".

"Then let's begin. Today I'll explain the conventional magic system of this world to give you a simple introduction. With your talent, you should be able to master it smoothly. Luo Jun, would you like to listen in?"

Luo Bai shook his head: "No, I'm going to find Brother Tianyuan and the others to train. I ate a bit too much at noon."

Let Rin Tohsaka focus on her studies here, and Luo Bai left the room and went to the training ground.

In terms of swordsmanship, Luo Bai's training has never slacked off. Even though he has already mastered the entire Sun Breathing technique, he still practices with Uzui Tengen and the others whenever he has time.

After sparring with Uzui Tengen, the two handed the training area over to the other team members and sat down to the side.

"We already know the identity of the little girl you brought today. I didn't expect she could even summon heroes from the past as heroic spirits to fight. I'm quite excited to hear that. Luo Bai, do you really not want us to come along?"

Luo Bai smiled and shook his head: "Although the plan is still very rough, there shouldn't be any major problems. I can go there myself. As for the Heroic Spirits, I'll have Rin tell me how to summon them, and then I'll have Mr. Masato study it. Maybe we can summon them here in the future."

After practice, Luo Bai left the base and went to the antique coffee shop, where he bought some coffee and cakes.

After delivering the portions to Uzui Tengen and the others, Luo Bai went to Rin Tohsaka's place.

Inside the room, Rin Tohsaka was listening attentively to Lucoa's explanation, while Tohru was also earnestly demonstrating various magic spells.

When Lucoa saw Lobai approaching, she paused after Thor finished demonstrating a basic spell.

"It's been over an hour, let's take a break."

Rin Tohsaka nodded, and then she saw Luo Bai walk in.

"Everyone has worked hard, take a break. I bought coffee and cake."

Thor immediately cheered, "Yay, afternoon tea!"

Everyone sat down, drank coffee, and ate cake.

Rin Tohsaka picked up the cup, took a sip, and said with surprise, "This coffee tastes pretty good!"

"Pretty good, right? I bought it at an antique café near the base. The people there are from another world, and they've settled here now. Besides running the café, they're also members of the action team, and they'll be deployed when there are missions."

Then, Luo Bai also talked about ghouls.

"Sigh! There are still life forms like this? Fortunately, it's been repaired, otherwise they definitely wouldn't be allowed to live here."

Luo Bai nodded and said, "That's right. Although their strength is not bad, to be honest, we don't lack a few more people. The main reason is that we were able to wipe out the vast majority of ghouls through the detailed intelligence we obtained from our deal with Yoshimura Kozen."

"Tsk tsk, what a decisive store manager. It must have taken a lot of determination to do this."

Rin Tohsaka complimented Yoshimura Kozen, then picked up a fork, cut a small piece of cheesecake, and put it in her mouth.

"Mmm~~This cake is delicious too!"

While enjoying afternoon tea, Luo Bai also inquired about the progress of her studies.

Rin Tohsaka said confidently, "Although the system is different and it doesn't rely on magic circuits, it's still a good thing for me. It also makes my use of my magic power more sophisticated, and I can even draw on the surrounding natural forces to fight for a short time. But that's too advanced for me to learn right now."

Lucoa smiled and said, "Rin has a great talent, and she's very quick to learn and intelligent. She's also easy to teach; she understands things once they're explained. However, Luo-kun, I think we should equip her with a wand for spellcasting. What do you think?"

Luo Bai agreed: "Initially, using a wand does allow for better concentration of magic and faster casting speed. So, should you make the wand, Lucoa, or should Elena do it?"

"Let Elena do it. I have something to do tonight and I might not have time."

"I understand, I'll talk to Elena."

As for what Lucoa was going to do, Luo Bai didn't ask any further questions. In any case, with her strength as the Feathered Serpent God, no one could threaten her.

Afternoon tea was finished, the class continued.

Luo Bai didn't leave either; he just sat there and listened to Lucoa's lesson.

As the feathered serpent god, Lucoa's lectures greatly benefited Lobai.

At 5 p.m., class ended. Lucoa had to attend to her own things, and Thor went home to cook.

Luo Bai then drove Rin Tohsaka home.

Upon entering the villa, Rin Tohsaka looked at Luo Bai and said, "Luo-kun, let me help with dinner too!"

Seeing the eager girl, Luo Bai nodded: "Okay, let's prepare together then."

After the two of them were busy in the kitchen for more than ten minutes, Shinobu Kocho and Yukino drove their car into the front yard of the villa together. Everyone had returned.

Yukino changed her clothes and went to the kitchen.

"Let me help too."

As she spoke, under Rin Tohsaka's curious gaze, she took out her wand and directed the ingredients and cleaver to begin their work, each with a clear division of labor.

Rin Tohsaka blinked and looked at Luo Bai, asking, "Why didn't you do that just now?"

Luo Bai smiled and said, "This is just the beginning, and the ingredients have only just been taken out. There's no need to be in such a hurry. What, are you envious?"

Rin Tohsaka nodded: "That's right, I really enjoy cooking, and I'd be thrilled if there were an easier way to make delicious food faster. Is this kind of magic difficult to learn?"

"It's not a big deal. These are all very common household magic spells. As long as you have a certain foundation, you can learn them. All you need is to be able to give precise instructions and multitask. You learned some basic magic this afternoon and know a few basic spells. Why don't you try them out now?"

With that, Luo Bai handed his wand to Rin Tohsaka and taught her how to cast spells.

Luo Bai himself could have cast spells without a wand long ago, but because this wand was made according to his own usage habits and hand shape, it was very comfortable to use, so Luo Bai has always carried it with him.

Under Luo Bai's guidance, it took about five minutes for Rin Tohsaka to be able to control three kitchen knives and cut three kinds of ingredients at the same time. However, when cutting meat into strips, she couldn't cut them evenly. After seeing this, Luo Bai changed the task of cutting meat to cutting vegetables and let Rin Tohsaka do it.

After watching the cleaver finish cutting the three kinds of vegetables by itself, Rin Tohsaka happily said, "This feels great!"

Ah, and it wasn't too tiring; it was relatively easy for me!

Having studied magic since childhood, Rin Tohsaka has no problem with mental strength.

As Luo Bai put the lid back on the pot, he said with a smile, "Not bad, then let's keep trying, but don't push yourself. If you feel like you're losing control, stop when you should."

With Rin Tohsaka's help, dinner was prepared smoothly.

Just half an hour after they had been busy working, the girls suddenly exclaimed outside the kitchen.

"Luo Jun, come out for a moment, Elena is here!"

Hearing Shinobu's slightly nervous voice, Luo Bai let the spatula do the cooking himself and turned to leave the kitchen.

As soon as I came out, I saw Elena, whom I hadn't seen for a long time.

However, the witch looked rather disheveled at the moment, covered in dust and her breathing was somewhat disordered, clearly indicating that she had just been in a battle.

"Are you alright, Elena?"

Elena waved her hand, took the glass of water that Kanao handed her, gulped it down, and then took out her wand to cast a cleaning spell on her clothes.

"Phew! Don't worry, it's nothing. We just encountered a group of monsters while traveling, and then we ran into two wyverns that were hunting for food during the battle, but we dealt with them all."

After saying that, Elena sniffed and looked towards the kitchen.

"I've arrived at the perfect time! It smells so good!"

Volume 1: Chapter 578 Family Banquet, Luo Bai's Confidence (2/2)

At that moment, Yukino and Rin Tohsaka also came out of the kitchen and met Elaina in the living room.

Elena ran over happily after seeing Yukino.

"Yukino, it's been a long time!"

After happily hugging Yukino, Elaina looked at Rin Tohsaka and said, "You're the magician from another world that Luo Bai told me about, the one he wanted me to teach, right? Hello, I'm Elaina, the Witch of Ash!"

"Hello, I'm Tousaka Rin."

Looking at the girl in front of her, who was not even as tall as herself, Rin Tohsaka could vaguely sense the subtle but powerful magic emanating from her.

This made Rin Tohsaka even more wary of underestimating any other world's magicians; she felt that none of the magicians she encountered were weak.

Even though Yukino and Hoshino Ai aren't particularly skilled at offensive magic, they still manage to control magic quite well.

After a brief greeting, Elena smiled and said, "I'm here today to keep my appointment. I'll be staying here for two days until you set off. But Luo Bai, can't I really come along? I'm very interested in that technology that can summon legendary heroes as Servants, and I'd like to try it out!"
