Just as Kazunari has his "Buddha enemy", Toosaka Rin also has a great enemy in her life.
He took away my most adorable sister Sakura, and he was determined to compete with me for everything, but I couldn't win against him.
Be it height, weight, bickering, academic exams, sports performance or even fighting, she could never beat him - well, actually she did win a few times, but she soon realized that the opponent was letting her win, and this kind of victory was not what she wanted.
As the head of the Toosaka family and the daughter of Toosaka Tokiomi, she has her elegance and pride. She wants to defeat this most powerful and hateful enemy with her strength in an upright manner.
Now, the enemy was right in front of her, smiling and waving to greet her.
"Hey, Rin, good morning."
"Don't call me Rin, please call me Toosaka, or Toosaka-san."
Eleven years, eleven years since Sakura was adopted by the Matou family, every time Shinji called Rin by her name, Rin would correct him tirelessly. She knew Shinji wouldn't listen, and knew what he would say next, but she still insisted.
"How heartless, Rin, aren't we childhood sweethearts?"
Sure enough, it was the same old answer again. Either we have known each other for such a long time, or we have a common sister, or we are childhood sweethearts.
The corresponding words have been said many times before.
"It's just that we've known each other for a while, so don't be so affectionate."
"Hey, Toosaka, have you known Matou for a long time? Why haven't I heard you talk about it?" Mizue asked curiously.
"Hmph, it's just a bad fate." Rin shook her ponytail and didn't look at Shinji.
"The most important criterion for childhood sweethearts is how long you have known each other. If Matou has known you longer than I have, then you are childhood sweethearts. Whether you admit it or not, this is an unchangeable fact."
Kazunari spoke up. As Rin's long-time enemy (self-proclaimed), and the man who reigned supreme among the students, he could immediately see the sinister (one-sided) atmosphere between Rin and Shinji. Following the ancient rule that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, he extended an olive branch to Shinji.
"Yeah, I think so too." Shinji said innocently, "We have known each other since we were six years old. If this doesn't count as childhood sweethearts, then what does it count as?"
Kazunari and Shinji performed a seamless combo. Rin's expression became more and more grim, and he even showed a tendency to make facial expressions.
Seeing her like this, Shinji knew that she was on the verge of losing control of her emotions, and quickly used mind projection to send the sound into her mind.
"Pay attention, pay attention, there are not only you and me here, there are other people too, you don't want the image you have been maintaining to be ruined, do you?"
"!!!" Lin's beautiful sapphire eyes suddenly cleared.
Her tsundere, dark side, laziness and bad temper are only revealed in front of people she is familiar with. In front of outsiders, she always abides by the Tohsaka family motto of "always stay calm and always stay elegant", and always follows her mother Yamato Nadeshiko's teachings.
When she was in school, Rin always gave people the impression of a young lady who lived in a particularly large house on the hillside, and a top student among top students. She was beautiful, had excellent grades, and was athletic, without any flaws. She was rational and polite, and was not proud of being a beauty. She was simply the ideal of men, and was naturally treated as an idol by male students. They would be excited for a long time just to talk to her - with the exception of Kazunari and Shinji.
It is not difficult to see that Rin attaches great importance to her appearance, so she quickly adjusted her mentality after being reminded by Shinji. However, she will not be grateful to Shinji for this. After all, this is caused by Shinji's "repeated teachings". His playful tone does not sound like a kind reminder, but a sarcasm, a satire on her hypocrisy.
Rin coughed and stopped paying attention to Shinji to avoid losing control of his emotions again.
"I'm not in a good mood today, so I apologize. Negotiating here may affect the morning practice of the archery club. Let's go to the student council room, which is more suitable for negotiations."
Taiga and Mizue looked at the archery range not far away and saw that there were indeed a few members peeking around, so they did not object.
"that's all."
"Is that okay with you, Student Council President?"
Yicheng frowned, looking reluctant to let these troublesome women enter his territory, but the reasons they gave made it impossible for him to refuse, so he finally had to agree.
"All right."
Hearing this answer, Rin turned and left. Because of Shinji's presence, she didn't want to stay even a second longer.
But Shinji didn't let her go, and said in a very annoying tone: "I'm leaving now, and I won't talk any more. I still want to tell you about what I saw in England."
The handles of the backpack were wrinkled by Rin's grip, which helped him to ease his emotions and stay calm.
"No, Meizhui's matter is more important."
"I'm not in a hurry." Meizhui poked her friend's waist maliciously, "Anyway, the budget cuts will not be implemented until next semester at the earliest, right, Student Council President?"
"That's right." Yicheng nodded. He didn't want to negotiate with Lin, especially without any preparation.
Lin was so angry that she turned around, pressed Meizhui's shoulders hard, and deliberately raised her voice:
"Your business is more important, isn't it?"
Perhaps she sensed the threat in Lin's eyes, or perhaps the power on her shoulders was heavier than she thought, causing even this modern martial arts master to feel a strong pressure. Meizhui did not dare to force herself and quickly changed her words.
"Yes, yes, the matter of the Kyudo Club is the most important. Let's go, Mr. Fujimura, the Student Council President."
"oh oh."
"good."
At this time, Shinji spoke again.
"Why don't you say hello to Sakura before you leave? She'll be happy to see you."
"No, I'm not like you, a 'genius' who doesn't go to school all day. I can say hello to her anytime."
Rin turned her head and glared at Shinji fiercely, showing both dissatisfaction on behalf of Sakura Ming and a little counterattack.
Shinji was unmoved: "I won't leave recently. Unless there is an emergency, I will come to school every day."
"Is that so? That's great."
At the end of the sentence, Lin bit his tongue particularly hard.
After saying that, she gently pulled up her left sleeve, revealing muscles that were comparable to those of a famous female voice actor who could "kill a bull with one punch". No, it was a dark red mark shaped like a fan, composed of a line and two arcs that embraced each other.
That is the stigma of Toosaka Rin, a declaration of participation as one of the "Three Great Families" that build the Holy Grail War system - Let's fight it out in the Holy Grail War, Shinji Matou.
Shinji then patted the back of his left hand as a response - Okay, let's fight, Toosaka Rin.
