Pendragon's Infinity Gauntlet

Page 75

Let's go eat at the buffet.

Rin Tohsaka pinched for a while, then glanced at Pendragon's flat stomach. She figured there was no way to make her vomit, so she had no choice but to change her original plan.

We were supposed to have a picnic in that scenic park with its fountains; just thinking about it makes me long for it…

Sigh. Rin can only choose a mercenary buffet restaurant now.

"Another buffet..."

Pendragon's ahoge (cowlick) didn't seem happy; it remained droopy.

"What? You still have complaints?"

Miss Rin looked at Pendragon without any politeness.

"I'm tired of all the food at the buffet."

Pendragon has always been a rather picky eater; after a few times, I'd never want to go back to a buffet that's primarily for filling my stomach.

Do you think I'm so easily fooled?

"Then you can just watch us eat."

Miss Rin remained completely unmoved, snorted, and pulled Lily away from Pendragon.

"..."

Is this a face-to-face NTR encounter, or... a harmonious harem?

Pendragon scratched the tuft of hair on his head, and seeing that the two of them were almost out of the venue, he got up from the rest seat.

Even just getting some fruit would be nice.

"Yes," Pendragon nodded, tucked the comic book under his arm, and quickly followed.

Even when it's a buffet, Rin chooses a relatively upscale restaurant, where at least the dining environment is clean, elegant, and makes people feel comfortable.

"It really is this place..."

P.S.: I'll try to update today, but I'm not very confident in myself.

Chapter 127 The Flying Mountain Gate

Chapter 127

It seems the owner of this restaurant is quite generous; Rin brought Pendragon here twice and wasn't blacklisted.

"Rin, isn't what you're doing a little inappropriate?"

Pendragon tugged at Rin's sleeve from behind and asked in a low voice.

At the same time, they kept a wary eye on the waiters in the store, who were dressed in pristine white shirts, as if afraid that the waiters would notice them as regular customers.

"what happened?"

This was Lily's first time here with them, and seeing Pendragon's...sneaky appearance, she couldn't help but feel a little strange, and looked at Rin with curiosity.

“The last time I brought this guy here… we spent the whole afternoon together.”

"..."

Lily initially thought it was nothing, but then she thought of Saber's bottomless stomach.

Well, the boss is really carefree.

Following the waiter to his seat, Pendragon picked up the menu, flipped through a few pages, and lost interest. Not a single new dish had been added; he lacked initiative.

The buffet here is à la carte, and you pay per person. You can order as much food as you want, but you can't waste food.

Pendragon ordered a juice and then stopped, just as Rin had said before, to watch the two of them eat, using his hunger strike to show Rin the seriousness of the situation.

However, Rin, who had ordered a tempura shrimp set meal, was focused on her meal and completely failed to notice Pendragon's resentful gaze.

So angry.

They were eating so happily, while Pendragon was idly blowing bubbles in his juice through a straw.

"Ok?"

Pendragon's intuition suddenly alerted him, and his gaze instantly shifted from the bubbles rising in his cup to the beef that the waiter had just brought over.

"what happened?"

Just as Miss Rin picked up a slice of beef and was about to put it in her mouth, her wrist was grabbed by "Saber." Although the force wasn't enough to hurt her, she couldn't move an inch.

Rin Tohsaka assumed that she was just being childish and couldn't resist wanting to eat meat, so she turned her chopsticks around and fed the beef to Pendragon.

"Eat, eat."

With a hint of helplessness on his face, his beautiful eyes revealed a look that said, "I really can't do anything with you."

"The food is poisonous."

Pendragon's concise words immediately put Lily and Rin on alert, causing them to instinctively look around, trying to find the waiter who had brought the dishes.

They didn't know when it started, but the restaurant was now completely empty. Even the women sitting by the window looked out onto the street, which had once been bustling, and found it eerily deserted with no pedestrians in sight.

"This is... a barrier."

"Boom!"

As soon as Rin finished speaking, the restaurant they were in suddenly began to shake violently, and the ceiling quickly turned from dust into chunks of cement as things fell from it!

"earthquake?"

The violent shaking made it difficult to maintain balance. Rin Tohsaka and Lily were not in good condition. After falling, they remained in a crouching position, protecting their heads with their hands.

Without Rin even needing to speak, the tempered glass next to their dining table was ejected like a cannonball, and the entire wall was pulverized by the Force!

The steel and concrete that were about to hit Rin and Lily stopped and bounced off in mid-air, and an invisible force field enveloped the area where they were located.

Pendragon flipped the table in front of him, scattering golden fried shrimp and juicy beef, and then, holding both girls in his arms, jumped out through the hole blasted open by the Force.

"Wooden knife..."

Lily instinctively reached for the weapon, only to realize that her knife case had been left unattended on the sofa while she was eating.

Pendragon's dark golden eyes turned to the direction he had just leaped out from, and he found Lily's belongings in the collapsing hotel building.

The long, dark blue cloth bag, pulled by telekinesis, flew toward Lily with a "whoosh".

"Thank you."

Even when the three of them were falling from a great height together, Lily couldn't help but blush, feeling a strange and indescribable sensation.

This is probably what it means to be pampered.

"You're welcome."

Although Pendragon was expressionless, Rin could tell how smug she was in the game just by seeing the swaying ahoge (cowlick) on her head making a gesture of resisting the wind pressure.

"Be careful up there!"

As the tallest and most luxurious hotel in Fuyuki City collapsed, its enormous size made one feel insignificant. Rin looked at the wreckage above her, which seemed to blot out the sky, and almost suffocated.

With the girl in his arms, Pendragon couldn't take out his sword to fly, so he used telekinesis to create a palm-sized force field behind him, and as he flipped over, his tall Martin boots stepped on it.

The magically imbued knees provided unparalleled jumping power in an instant. The three people in the air, like swordfish startled in the sea, broke through the air currents in the blink of an eye and shot straight forward, leaving the area where the building had collapsed.

Rin and Lily both breathed a sigh of relief, one wrapping her arms around Pendragon's neck and the other around her waist.

But before they could even catch their breath, they both took another deep drag simultaneously—

Suddenly, a gate-like structure, along with its stone floor beneath it, appeared out of nowhere and hurtled towards them like cannonballs!

The commotion was like a rolling thunderclap.

Pendragon, of course, discovered it even earlier than they did, and carried the two of them through the air, soaring like a great bird, stepping onto Newton's coffin lid and rising even higher.

"What the hell..."

Pendragon landed on the roof tiles of the gate with the two of them, and Rin immediately cursed after seeing it clearly.

"Isn't this the gate of Ryudou-ji Temple? Who smashed it down here...?"

Lily was almost speechless; the way this attack was truly...unique.

"..."

Only Pendragon knew what had happened. Since even the gates of his own stronghold had been brought out, his brothers at those gates must have arrived as well.

Perhaps this is what it means to come out in full force.

"There are still people over there!"

Rin, holding Pendragon to maintain her balance, noticed a figure in a blue bodysuit ahead. Magic flowed into her eyes, enhancing her vision so she could clearly see the man's face—

It's Lancer!

That man holding a gun and resting with his eyes closed, isn't he the one who almost disappeared the whole time? Now he dares to show himself after teaming up with someone else.

Pendragon led the two of them as they jumped down from the gate of Ryudo Temple. With a loud crash, they landed a little later on the road that had almost been completely crushed.

"No way, even Berserker has joined."

P.S.: I went straight to sleep after finishing my Photoshop job yesterday. I'm such a devil.

Chapter 128 Is it too late to replenish mana now?

Chapter 128

Lady Rin was furious. Why would that brat from the Einzbern family cooperate with someone like Caster when there was already a Servant as strong as Berserker?

"what is this?"

Lily looked up at the sky, which was shrouded in dark, leaden clouds. The flowing black clouds formed a celestial vortex above their heads, like a giant hole through which they could vaguely see the once bustling street, still teeming with people.

"This barrier..."

Although Rin was relieved that no ordinary people were involved, their current situation was quite bad. In addition to having to deal with multiple Servants, they had also fallen into Caster's Reality Marble!

"No, we can't get in touch with Archer!"

The contract between Lily and Archer was separated by a barrier, and Caster certainly wouldn't leave such a flaw to allow them to increase their strength.

"It's all up to you, Saber. Can you use that stone with spatial power to escape?"

Lady Rin and Lily were on guard around when Assassin emerged from the gate of Ryudou Temple. Now there were four Servants in total.

It's necessary to guard against Rider. Caster's ability to form alliances and schemes has surprised Rin. Perhaps Saber is too strong. She must be prepared to face five Servants.

What made her feel a little relieved was that when Caster and the other three Servants completely surrounded them, the fifth Servant, Rider, who was flying towards her side, did not appear and probably wouldn't.

"Yes, yes."

Pendragon's expressionless face appeared calm and reliable, which unconsciously calmed Lily and Rin down from their initial tension.

"Is there a 'but'?"

"But why run away?"

Pendragon continued Rin's words, leaving her speechless.

Although you, Saber, are invincible in one-on-one combat and have swept through this generation of dragon warriors, you now have four opponents. It seems like a hopeless gap. It's already amazing that you were able to escape.

Rin Tohsaka doesn't dare to ask for too much now. She'll stop being so reckless, bring Lily to her home, activate all her magic circles, and have food delivered...

Let's stop these random thoughts and focus on overcoming the immediate challenge first.

The man in the blue bodysuit had changed his habits at some point, becoming a ruthless and taciturn figure. Once the encirclement was complete, he suddenly began to sprint!

"Autumn beans, sack of potatoes!..."

Rin wanted to chat with them a bit before the fight started, to make some sarcastic remarks and buy some time, but those guys didn't give her the chance at all.

Lancer moved with lightning speed, disappearing from their sight in the blink of an eye.

Miss Rin sensed an ominous and terrifying magical power brewing within her. She looked up sharply, following the source of the power, and a figure leaped high into the air, striking a throwing pose with explosive presence.

"A Noble Phantasm! He's going to unleash his Noble Phantasm right from the start!"

Rin and Lily's faces instantly changed color. This wasn't the first time they had dealt with Lancer, and they knew how terrifying the power of his magic spear was.

Moreover, the power of that Noble Phantasm was significantly stronger than that of a few days ago, and it was one of the best among all the Noble Phantasms they had ever seen. Was this Lancer's true strength?
