Pendragon's Infinity Gauntlet

Page 87

"So what do you like about me?"

Pendragon seemed completely oblivious to Rin's shy situation; in fact, her blushing and bashful demeanor was incredibly cute and wonderful.

Moreover, she really wanted to know how many of Rin's strengths she could discover in herself.

If she had a keen eye, she could probably talk about it for several minutes straight, blushing.

What do you like about Saber?

Miss Rin's face wasn't as red now, but when she heard Pendragon's blunt and narcissistic question, she immediately turned her face away in embarrassment.

"..."

Seemingly deep in thought, Miss Rin didn't answer immediately this time, instead playing with her hair by twirling it with her fingers.

Pendragon could only see Rin's bright red earlobes, her cute earlobes like round beads of blood, which made her unable to resist reaching out and pinching them.

Rin trembled as if she had been electrocuted, and looked at Pendragon's face again.

Subconsciously, as if bewitched, Rin suddenly removed the glasses from Pendragon's face.

Her dark gold pupils and silver-gray hair exude a cool aura, but that wig that moves completely transforms that coolness into cuteness, even creating a charming contrast.

"Saber is so beautiful..."

Miss Rin was captivated by this stunning beauty and murmured softly.

"of course."

The silver-gray ahoge (cowlick) seemed very elastic, suddenly standing upright with the pointed part slightly curved, like a soldier standing straight waving a salute.

"Anything else? If Rin only judges people by their appearance, I'll look down on you."

Although she said that, Rin could still see her smugness from the change in her ahoge (cowlick).

However, Miss Rin has suddenly encountered a problem.

Besides being beautiful... Saber

"—Then, then..."

Her beautiful eyebrows furrowed involuntarily, the blush on her face quickly faded, and she fell into a long silence.

It seems like, besides his good looks, there's no other reason for me to like him?

P.S.: Wow, this is addictive! I wrote from 7 PM last night until 5 AM this morning... I'm pretty sure the title of "most lazy" goes to the author, otherwise I would have skipped it all today 233

Chapter 146 There's One More Thing

Chapter 146

Opposite to Rin, Pendragon's ahoge (cowlick) was gradually softening, teetering on the verge of exploding.

"And that's it?"

After waiting for a long time, Rin still didn't mention a second advantage, and Pendragon's ahoge (cowlick) even started to turn black.

Rin probably sensed it too; cold sweat was almost breaking out on her forehead. It was supposed to be a confession, so why did she feel like she was being judged?

"Of course not! I just... I just couldn't think of it for a moment. Give me time and I'm sure I can think of it!"

"Farewell!"

Pendragon felt hurt and turned to push open the window of the room, climbed up, and tried to fly.

"Hey! Wait a minute!"

Rin quickly reached out and grabbed her, trying to stop her.

"I like it, that's all! What reason do I need?!"

The young lady was glad she had been quick-witted to find the perfect answer in such a short time.

Pendragon seemed to be persuaded and did not fly out of the window.

"Besides, once you spend enough time together, you'll always discover their good points."

"Are you saying I have no redeeming qualities?"

Pendragon was expressionless, and the curls on his ahoge (cowlick) made him look like a cane.

"No, no, at least she's good-looking!"

Miss Rin shook her head hurriedly, her twin tails almost spinning into a giant windmill.

So, we're back to the original question.

"You're not usually this lacking in emotional intelligence, are you?"

Pendragon felt that Rin had become an idiot today; if he really wanted to argue with her, she could drive him crazy.

"what?"

Rin Tohsaka's brain circuits seem to be overloaded; she didn't even realize what was going on when she suddenly said she had low emotional intelligence.

"However, it's not like I can't give you a chance..."

It was the first time his wife had confessed her love to him, so he had to give her face.

Moreover, Rin's performance has already explained part of the problem.

"what?"

"We'll do as you said and stay put for now."

"So simple?"

Perhaps because she was too happy, Miss Rin unconsciously blurted out her thoughts.

"There is a time limit."

She felt like Saber was glaring at her, and her ahoge (cowlick) was starting to turn black again. Even without Pendragon's repeated reminders, Rin herself realized she had been incredibly stupid today.

I'll ask you again tomorrow.

After saying that, Pendragon changed the subject.

"What's for dinner tonight?"

"What would you like to eat? I'll have the maid make it."

Rin spoke in a spoiled young lady tone, then noticed that Pendragon's ahoge (cowlick) twitched rapidly.

aware.

"I want to eat what you made!"

Pendragon emphasized.

"This... is a bit troublesome."

It's a bit troublesome, but not impossible.

Time flies. In just a short time, the family has already rehired servants and made the yard look like a garden.

Rin adapted to life as a young lady very quickly, but her relationship with her parents was a little strange. Of course, these details seemed insignificant when the whole family was together.

"I'm going to eat what you make anyway."

Pendragon's attitude was quite firm, and although Rin had a headache, she had no choice but to nod in agreement. "Father shouldn't mind, right?"

"Also, it feels strange to eat with your family. Just serve the food properly."

"Hi hi hi."

Father will surely forgive me. Miss Rin nodded repeatedly, feeling her love was so humble (doge).

"Since you've been so cooperative, I'll reluctantly warm your bed for you tonight."

Sleeping alone is never as comfortable as sleeping with someone else. Since the time they lifted the coffin lid, Pendragon hadn't slept at all, and he was even distracted when reading at night.

Miss Rin didn't blush this time. She was used to sleeping with the three of them, so why would she be embarrassed by such a subtle hint? She just showed a slightly troubled expression.

"As long as Saber avoids Father's sight and sneaks over, there will be no problem."

Rin knew that she definitely had that ability.

"How does this work?"

Pendragon flatly refused.

“I have always acted with integrity and honesty, why should I sneak around? I not only want to come here, but I also want to announce the time right now.”

I'm going to sleep with your daughter tonight!

"Waaah! No! Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

Rin held Pendragon's skirt with both hands, a display that sent chills down one's spine.

"My actions and conscience are as clear as a mirror, and all my deeds are righteous, so how can I feel pain?"

Pendragon realized that if he forced his way out, he would have to go naked, so he had to stop.

She touched her belly and gave Rin a look.

"I'll go buy groceries now."

Miss Rin quickly walked out of the room, closing the door behind her.

After Rin left, Pendragon's slightly trembling ahoge finally couldn't be contained anymore. It slashed through the air like a rapier, leaving afterimages like sword light. He was clearly in a very good mood.

He lay face up on the neatly made, wrinkle-free bed, and Pendragon used magic to create a novel above his face.

Unlike his previous irritability and melancholy, Pendragon is now extremely happy and finds everything beautiful.

However, I still can't calm down and appreciate the contents of the book.

He gets special meals prepared by Rin and someone to hug while he sleeps, but life at the Tohsaka family isn't as comfortable as he'd hoped.

Whether it was the servants or the couple themselves, Pendragon didn't really want to see so many people around in his place.

Especially since her five senses are very sharp, it would be very noisy for so many people to be in the same building.

My heartbeat and breathing were okay, but the footsteps and the whispers between the servants were the most annoying. It was probably as unpleasant as the neighbors renovating and drilling holes.

"How about we move out? Buy another yard? Or we can go back to Lily's house."

Pendragon told Rin about this while they were eating.

"Well... I'll ask my father for his opinion later."

Ten years have passed, yet there's still no distance between us.

Rin is all grown up now, but she still idolizes her father, which has always made Pendragon feel subtly uncomfortable. This is the main reason why she is eager to move out.

Although moving out as a minor goes against family tradition, Shi Chen didn't complain much and agreed immediately.

He has recently been busy filling in the gaps of his extra ten years, updating many magic formulas and completing hundreds of papers.

He was clearly a magician, but he lived like he was preparing for graduate school entrance exams and doctoral studies. After he became familiar with the development of magic in this era and absorbed this part of the knowledge,

There is still one thing to do at this time.

P.S.: I originally planned to go to bed early last night and catch up on the update today, but my roommate played League of Legends all night and probably got a pentakill several times. I didn't sleep well and didn't go to bed until 4 a.m. I should have stayed up all night writing. I haven't been feeling well all day.

Chapter 147 The Sweeping Monk

Chapter 147

Although in the world of magicians, betrayal for profit is nothing to be surprised about, and is even a necessary consequence, it is not a big deal if one accidentally falls into a trap.

However, this did not stop Tokichi from wanting to kill that little brat Kirei Kotomine.

So what if they're from the church? This is a personal feud. The Clock Tower isn't exactly innocent either. The Tohsaka family has a powerful backer—a mage.

Kirei Kotomine is quite shrewd; upon receiving word of the situation, he immediately boarded a flight and left Fuyuki City. Otherwise, Tokishi wouldn't have been able to stay home and study peacefully.

Having obtained permission at the appointed time, Rin took Pendragon out to look at houses.

Buying a house is out of the question. Although the Tohsaka family has hired servants to maintain a semblance of respectability, it doesn't mean their finances are actually quite comfortable.

On the contrary, the losses were actually due to the priest's poor management skills, and the fact that the Tohsaka family's formulas and theories registered with the Magicians' Association had fallen behind in the past ten years, resulting in no patent income from being cited in other magicians' papers.

Apart from some gems accumulated in the past, the treasury is just an empty shell.
