Kisaragi Rin still didn't know that his opponents had already appeared: Gilgamesh, King Arthur, Hydra Captain, and a filler Hassan of the Hundred Personas. He was currently searching the Matou Residence for his summoning artifact.
After dinner, Kisaragi Rin began rummaging through the Matou Residence. Looking at the various Holy Relics in his hands, Kisaragi Rin was utterly confused.
"That doesn't make sense. Three people have already summoned Servants. The summoning artifact should be easy to find. Why haven't I found it yet with my five points of luck?"
It had only been less than half a day, and Saber and Archer had already been summoned. Kisaragi Rin was a bit anxious, as he was genuinely afraid that his opponent would leave him with a Berserker in the end.
Although Berserker has high stats, his operability is too low. It's too easy for the opponent to kite him like a dog and then kill the Master.
Moreover, even if he wins in the end, it would be difficult to achieve the highest S-rank evaluation.
Considering the situation of this world and the mission mode, even if he defeats the other seven and obtains the Holy Grail, the final evaluation might not reach S-rank. Otherwise, wouldn't this mode guarantee an S-rank evaluation?
According to how he obtained an S-rank evaluation in Tokoname City, Kisaragi Rin might need to clarify the worldview of this world, meaning why Fuyuki City on this worldline became like this, and why the supernatural and the gas company left this city…
Kisaragi Rin already had ideas for these. The most important thing now was to summon a Servant, just in case those guys really left him with a Berserker.
A Berserker is even difficult to communicate with, so what kind of worldview could Kisaragi Rin explore if he summoned such a thing?
"Why did they all complete their summons so quickly? What kind of people entered this game?"
Kisaragi Rin grumbled. If they hadn't summoned so quickly, Kisaragi would have wanted to use his 5 points of luck to explore some special places.
"Brother, may I come in?"
Matou Sakura's voice, accompanied by a knock on the door, sounded from outside. Kisaragi put all the Holy Relics into the cabinet, turned around, and replied, "You may."
Matou Sakura pushed the door open and walked in, wearing a white long nightgown with a bow. Her hair tips were still a bit damp, looking like she hadn't thoroughly dried them after her bath.
"Grandpa was very happy today."
Matou Sakura sat on the bed and spoke to Kisaragi Rin. She didn't wait for Kisaragi to reply, or rather, from her perspective, it was normal for Matou Shinji to sit quietly and listen to her speak alone.
"Recently, Grandpa would fall asleep unknowingly while watching TV alone. I took him to the doctor, and the doctor said he was just simply old… I don't know how much longer he can last…"
Kisaragi Rin felt nothing. Matou Zouken was not his grandfather, and as the most disgusting old immortal in the original plot, growing old might even be a good, distorted ending for him.
Matou Sakura chattered on, as if she wanted to say everything that Matou Sakura from other worldlines would say.
Kisaragi Rin merely faced her with a calm expression, after all, he was just Kisaragi Rin disguised as Matou Shinji.
A Disguise is a Disguise. If he truly immersed himself in it, it would be too ridiculous.
"So where did Matou Shinji from this worldline go? Was he sealed by Paradise like a Skill? Or was he directly killed by Paradise?"
Kisaragi Rin's thoughts drifted to other matters, but then Matou Sakura stopped speaking, moved closer, and asked Kisaragi, "Brother, are you preparing to change?"
Kisaragi Rin didn't respond to her. He Lock-on his gaze on the cleavage of Matou Sakura's chest, where there was a bead familiar to Kisaragi Rin.
"Sakura, let me see your necklace."
"Eh?"
Matou Sakura, who was waiting for Kisaragi Rin's response, only then noticed where he was looking. She covered her chest and quickly took a step back, letting out a cute hum as she unclasped the necklace from the back of her neck and took it out.
"Here."
It was orange-red, with three stars inside, and no matter which angle it was turned in his palm, they could be seen.
"…The summoning artifact is a Dragon Ball?"
Kisaragi Rin held the warm bead, feeling a bit speechless.
"If it's a Dragon Ball, then why do we need a black holy grail? We might as well just collect seven Dragon Balls and summon the Dragon God to grant wishes."
Kisaragi Rin also remembered Hikigaya Hachiman's Dragon-Seeking Compass. Maybe that thing was quite good at finding Dragon Balls.
"Sakura, lend me your necklace for now. I'll… return it in a few days."
Kisaragi Rin held the Dragon Ball in his palm and said to Matou Sakura beside him.
Matou Sakura wanted to say something, but seeing Kisaragi Rin's fluctuating emotions, she still didn't refuse.
"Brother, you must not lose this bead."
"Hmm… I won't."
Kisaragi Rin didn't know if the summoning artifact would disappear after use. Seeing a crow appear by the window, he stood up to see Matou Sakura off.
"Sakura, go back and rest."
"I understand."
As Kisaragi Rin saw her out, Matou Sakura looked at the door that was about to close, her purple eyes fixed on Kisaragi Rin as she earnestly said, "Good night, Brother."
"…Good night." After a pause, Kisaragi Rin still responded to Matou Sakura's good night.
Matou Sakura smiled, put her hands behind her back, and turned her body with a dance step, leaving like a young deer.
Kisaragi Rin closed the door, and another voice had already sounded from behind him.
"I say, do you have to provoke a few women in every world?"
Yukinoshita Yukino grumbled as she climbed in through the room's window, followed by King Arthur and Black Sun, who had changed into their casual clothes.
Since his image had already been completely eroded by Yukinoshita Yukino, Kisaragi Rin was too lazy to explain and Lock-on his gaze on the blonde, blue-eyed Servant.
Looking at their combination strangely, Kisaragi Rin also grumbled, "Is this Saber? As expected of the most benevolent and kind Miss Yukinoshita Yukino."
Although there are too many Servants in the Fate World who look like King Arthur, combining Yukinoshita Yukino's personality and the Servant class that appeared, Kisaragi chose to believe that the Servant she summoned was King Arthur.
Otherwise, it couldn't be Mordred, could it? Yukinoshita Yukino didn't have that much hatred for her father yet.
The Saber in Kisaragi Rin's mouth is naturally the common name for King Arthur in the Fate World. Although the original meaning of this word is the Saber class, as long as it is said, anyone who knows a little about the Fate World will think of this King.
The reason, perhaps, is that King Arthur sounds too masculine, and this title might be more suitable to describe a burly man rather than a blonde, blue-eyed young girl.
Saber glanced at the Command Seal on Kisaragi Rin's hand and immediately pulled Yukinoshita Yukino behind her.
"Master, danger!"
Yukinoshita Yukino motioned for Saber not to get agitated and introduced her, "Saber, this is a companion I can trust."
Then she glanced at Kisaragi Rin, crossed her arms, and asked Kisaragi Rin, "Given our relationship, Kisaragi, who is very capable, should be willing to form an alliance with me, right?"
Yukinoshita Yukino saw that Kisaragi Rin had not yet summoned a Servant and, with her sharp tongue, intended to regain her face from Demon Slayer in this restricted dungeon.
Facing the somewhat arrogant Yukinoshita Yukino, Kisaragi Rin brought out a sea bream dish from the Workshop.
"You guys haven't eaten yet, have you?"
Saber's ahoge quickly stood straight up.
