This Holy Grail War is chaotic!
This matter is so important that it needs to be reiterated. Although Le Yuan once told Arturia that she didn't need to pay attention to the church's affairs, she still took it upon herself to report the matters here to the higher-ups of the Holy Church through Irisviel.
Although the church will send special personnel to investigate the matter here as soon as possible, whether it can catch up with the Holy Grail War is the biggest problem. Moreover, the Holy Church has lost the bargaining chip for additional command spells, so what qualifications does it have to intervene in the Holy Grail War.
The people of Fuyuki City can be said to have suffered from the Holy Grail War. Before the Holy Grail War, Ryunosuke, a murderer, had caused panic, causing many parents of children to panic.
After the arrival of Marshal Caster, this fear has only increased day by day. After all, compared to Ryuunosuke, who is half-assed and not even a magician at all, Caster's magic is not too simple to use to abduct children. It is simply a foul-level trick.
And as Le Yuan solved Caster, the dark clouds hanging over Fuyuki City did not dissipate. The Lich King holding Frostmourne is once again hiding in the shadows of Fuyuki City, and the number of missing and dead people has not changed at all with the death of Caster.
Tohsaka Rin, as the heir recognized by Tohsaka Tokiomi, the head of the Tohsaka family, as the next generation head of the family, she is uniquely endowed with the top talents of the five elements. Due to the Holy Grail War, Tohsaka Rin had to live temporarily with his mother, Tohsaka Aoi, in her parents' Zencheng home.
However, this peaceful life was soon broken. From a daily phone conversation, Tohsaka Aoi learned that her good friend Kotone was missing, just like those abducted children.
Tohsaka Rin, who understood the existence of the Holy Grail War, did not attribute Kotone's disappearance to ordinary abduction like ordinary people. Her adventurous heart and concern for her good friend Kotone made her unable to sit still and wait.
Tohsaka Rin, who was only seven years old, abided by the elegance of the Tosaka family every day, but when faced with the possibility of something unexpected happening to her friend, Tohsaka Rin ran away from home for the first time.
With the pocket money he had saved, a magic pointer given by his father that could indicate where magic power is gathered, and two crystal pieces he refined that could produce explosions, Tohsaka Rin headed to the nearest station in the dark.
Rin Tosaka, who got off the train at Fuyuki Station, once again felt the cold winter night in Fuyuki. The night wind that blew from time to time made her delicate skin feel as if it was being burned by fire.
Rushing to the Shinto area where disappearances occur frequently, Tohsaka Rin opened the cover of the magic pointer, hoping to find the magic power on the servant through the pointer to determine the direction.
Who knew that as soon as I opened it, I was immediately dumbfounded? What is going on
The pointer that usually only shakes slightly is now spinning crazily. In this case, let alone finding the location of the heroic spirit, even the magic pointer may be broken in the next second.
Just when Tohsaka Rin was dumbfounded, suddenly the magic pointer needle on her hand moved even more violently, as if she had gone completely crazy.
Bang—
There was a moderate crackling sound, and the magic pointer on Tohsaka Rin's hand emitted a burst of white smoke, and then completely stopped working.
This burst of explosions also attracted not many people on the road. Due to the time of abduction and recent murder cases, the entire Fuyuki City has issued a curfew, and basically not many people are willing to show up at night.
Just when Tohsaka Rin was about to leave here and find a place to start the search again, a shout almost frightened her to the point of taking out the crystal piece and triggering it.
"Hey, it's very dangerous at night!"
"ah-"
Rin Tosaka, who jumped directly, suddenly turned around and looked behind him. He saw a tall man standing there. The plastic bag he was carrying had a lot of things in it. It looked like he had just entered and exited. Pass the convenience store.
"Ah-it's okay, I'll go home right now!"
Tohsaka Rin wanted to leave as she spoke, but the unfamiliar words from the next second made her stop
"Go home? Can you find the person you want with that broken gadget? A half-baked magician can't do anything!"
Tohsaka Rin was suddenly shocked. Anyone who knew magicians in Fuyuki City today was either the same magician or a servant. And the reason why the magic pointer was broken just now is—
Although there was no big movement, Tohsaka Rin's hand had quietly reached behind her back to take out the crystal piece of her qualifications. As long as the man in front of her made any abnormal movement, she would activate the power of the crystal piece.
"Oh—children nowadays are really wary and want to find something. I have something good!"
Le Yuan looked at the wary Tohsaka Rin, put one hand into his arms, and then took out the lucky compass from his space backpack as if he had taken out something. Although it is not a Noble Phantasm and has also lost the blessing of system power, as long as magic power is injected into it, it can still play the role of finding things.
"What a broken compass, is it really useful?"
Tohsaka Rin's words left Le Yuan quite speechless. The appearance of the Lucky Compass was indeed a bit rough, but the effect was impressive.
"Hold it in your hand, inject your magic power, and then point your heart towards the person or thing you are looking for, and it will help you!"
Le Yuan directly sent the compass to Tohsaka Rin's hands, and Tohsaka Rin started to use it with hesitation.
But half a minute later, the continuously rotating hands finally stopped.
"ah-"
Tohsaka Rin suddenly screamed, and Le Yuan suddenly lifted her onto his shoulders, and then rushed towards the direction pointed by the compass without saying a word.
"Stop screaming, look at the direction the compass is pointing right now. Isn't there someone important to you there?"
As Le Yuan's words reached Tohsaka Rin's ears, she quickly regained her so-called elegance, and at the same time followed Le Yuan's instructions and began to look at the compass in her hand.
Ten minutes later, in a house already filled with the smell of blood, Tohsaka Rin finally found his good friend Kotone. Fortunately, the seven children, including her, were only four hungry and unable to move, and they themselves were not killed by Caster in time.
"It's time to go. I've already called the police. Let them handle it. I don't think you want to be sent home by the police!"
Holding Tohsaka Rin's hand, Le Yuan and her watched the police arrive and then left.
Along the way, Tohsaka Rin's attitude toward Le Yuan softened slightly. He looked at the silent Le Yuan and asked, "Are you a magician? Have you ever been to the Clock Tower to study? Why did you come to Fuyuki City..."
"Dong-"
"Oh-"
Rin Tosaka, who was flicked on the forehead by Le Yuan, immediately stopped holding his head and almost burst into tears at the flick.
"Bad guy!"
Looking at Le Yuan in front of him, Tohsaka Rin spoke up.
"Yes, I have never said that I am a good person. Aren't all magicians like this? Don't you want to go back to see your mother for the so-called magic that means no good or evil?"
Tohsaka Rin even hesitated after hearing this. Sneaking out was not something worth talking about. When Le Yuan took Tohsaka Rin through the Citizen Park, suddenly Tohsaka Rin pointed at this cemetery-like building. of parkway.
"It's here. I used to come to play with Sakura, but I haven't seen her since a year ago. Dad said that for the sake of magic, Sakura is no longer my sister, but has gone to Kick. Matou’s place!”
Tohsaka Rin looked at the park in front of him and became inexplicably sad. Perhaps for a 7-year-old child, losing her sister may be something she will never forget in her life.
"If you were to lose your mother, your father, or even kill your sister with your own hands for the so-called demonic path, would you be willing?"
Le Yuan asked looking at Tohsaka Rin beside him.
"No, I like dad, mom and Sakura. I-I don't want them to die!"
For the young Tohsaka Rin, no matter how great the devil is, it cannot compare to the so-called family.
"cold!"
Just as Rin Tosaka was looking at the solemn park, a mother's call came from behind her, and the next second her mother Aoi Tosaka embraced her in her arms.
"Mom, don't cry! I just saved Qinyin, and the uncle here also helped a lot!"
Tohsaka Rin explained while wiping Tohsaka Aoi's tears.
Only then did Tohsaka Aoi notice Le Yuan beside her, and she quickly stood up and said to Le Yuan: "Thank you, sir, for helping my little girl. You can come and sit at Tohsaka's house when you have time..."
"Mom, uncle is a magician..."
"magician?!"
In the next second, Tohsaka Aoi just hugged Tohsaka Rin and couldn't help but take a few steps back. She was very scared, fearing that Le Yuan was one of the magicians who came to participate in the Holy Grail War.
Tohsaka Aoi knew that the so-called magician would do whatever it takes to get the Holy Grail, and she knew even more clearly that she and Rin as hostages were undoubtedly a huge threat to Tohsaka Tokiomi.
"Don't worry, madam. I am not a magician participating in the Holy Grail War..."
Le Yuan's words did not make Tohsaka Aoi slack off at all. Knowing the so-called Holy Grail War, since he is not a magician, there may be only one left - a servant.
Le Yuan's body instantly transformed into another face, and in the next second, black energy suddenly enveloped his whole body.
"I'm Berserker, and I'm here specially to bring my wife and Rin as guests. Sakura misses both of them very much!"
"Go away, don't come near me!"
Tohsaka Aoi hugged Tosaka Rin and wanted to leave immediately, but how could she escape from Le Yuan's hands? The next second, both Tohsaka Aoi and Tohsaka Rin were unconscious and Le Yuan was holding them on their shoulders.
Le Yuan did not leave, but said to a corner of the park: "Hey, Assassin who is hiding there, remember to tell Tohsaka Tokiomi that his wife and two daughters are all in my hands, and I want to exchange them for them." If you lose your life, you will voluntarily give up this Holy Grail War, otherwise you will have no choice but to collect their bodies for them!"
Then Le Yuan instantly turned into black energy and merged into the night, never to be found again.
As Le Yuan disappeared, several Assassins of different heights, men, women, old and young appeared silently at the place where Le Yuan disappeared.
"Tosaka Tokiomi's wife and daughter were all kidnapped. Do you want to tell Master about this?"
"Of course, you go and inform. The rest of us continue to search for news about this Berserker!"
"yes-"
Although Assassin really wanted to track Le Yuan, their abilities were simply not enough to do so.
