Pendragon's Infinity Gauntlet

Page 85

Lost in thought, Rin didn't see anything, so Pendragon had no choice but to drag her upstairs again, despite Lily's gaze.

"What are you doing?"

Miss Rin isn't so angry anymore; it seems that cooking helps her calm down and cool her head.

"I'll help you fulfill your wish."

Looking at Rin in front of him, Pendragon had only two words in his mind: "So delicious!"

They had said they had no wishes, but then they started arguing with themselves about making a wish.

“Tell me your wish.”

That cat is floating again.

"Go cool down."

Pendragon didn't even look at it, grabbed it by the scruff of its neck and threw it out the window.

"you……"

"Only children make choices; we want it all."

As Pendragon spoke, he had already put on a really cool glove on his left hand, with six dull stones embedded in it.

"Tell me the timeframe; when do you plan to resurrect them?"

"Clam???"

Miss Rin looked completely bewildered, a beautiful girl with a question mark on her face.

"Only weaklings have a limit on the number of people..."

Pendragon swallowed a piece of Infinite Black Bean Paste expressionlessly, activating the six gems on his glove. He was halfway through his sentence when a chill ran through him, and he sneezed.

"To me, resurrecting one person or ten billion people is just a snap of my fingers."

Chapter 143 The Smile Gradually Disappears

Chapter 143

The discarded cat floated back to the windowsill, its starry eyes carrying the wisdom and experience of time.

"Meow meow meow! (If you say I'm a weakling dragon again, I'll shower you with stars!)"

Pendragon ignored it, as if anyone wouldn't throw a star in their face.

"what are you talking about?"

Miss Rin snapped out of her daze and gave Pendragon a loving look.

Ten billion more, bacteria?

Despite telling the truth, he was suspected of boasting, and Pendragon seemed to sigh helplessly.

It doesn't matter if we don't talk about time; as long as we have the will, we can let the gloves bring it to fruition.

"Snapped."

Rin Tohsaka only heard Saber's cool gloves make a crisp sound that defied common sense, and a strange power instantly spread throughout the universe, making her vaguely feel that the world seemed to be a little different.

With curiosity in its eyes, the large cat, the embodiment of the dragon's spirit, tiptoed and trotted along behind Pendragon.

"Meow meow."

Your gloves are nice, can I borrow them to take a look?

Then Pendragon actually took off his glove and casually tossed it to it.

With a flick of its thick, long tail, the lightweight Infinity Gauntlet was caught by the blower.

Although there was no arguing this time, Lily still stared longingly at the stairs, watching the person and the cat come down at the same time as Archer, who had a serious expression.

"Don't look, it's a family reunion, let's leave."

Pendragon pulled Lily toward the entrance. Archer hesitated, wanting to speak but unable to, agonizing over his words.

Thanks to the cheat code his boss gave him, he had keenly sensed what had happened, but that's precisely why he didn't dare to say anything; he was too cowardly.

Although it has been confirmed that this "Saber" with a strong aura of evil god is not an evil god, she is a much bigger problem, so big that even the boss is at a loss.

"Wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate for us to leave without saying goodbye?"

Lily asked Pendragon as she changed her shoes in the entryway.

No, you have to understand.

Pendragon's eyes hinted at the unusual situation, and his tuft of hair looked listless. Lily didn't press him for details.

With that snap of his fingers, two more mouths to feed appeared. The thought of having to share meals with two more people, especially since those two were the cook's elders, filled Pendragon with melancholy.

Given his tendency to take the blame, he might even forbid his daughter from focusing her energy on the kitchen, which is why Pendragon hopes Rin will calm down before making her wish.

For various reasons, she didn't want to see Shi Chen at all, or even see him. He'd been dead for so long, what was the point of him being resurrected...?

However, he was also a very important person to Rin, and he would surely be happy to see her again. Just thinking about this made Pendragon feel less sad.

With mixed feelings of gain and loss, Pendragon and Lily passed by the park, randomly found a bench to sit on, and instead of reading, they leaned back in their chairs, staring blankly at the sky.

The blower's two claws, manipulating Pendragon's gloves, had already seen through its true nature.

"It should be something from another universe with a very high essence. Because it involved the fundamental power of the universe, it lost its original power after leaving that universe. But that's not the key point..."

She muttered to herself, "No wonder she lent it so readily. Without her support, this thing is just a glove that looks cool."

"Meow!"

Can I try some of the red bean paste you just ate?

Pendragon continued to gaze at the sky at a ninety-degree angle, ignoring the cat.

On the other side, Rin, who thought Pendragon was really bragging, suddenly felt a blur before her eyes.

The boastful Saber is gone, but... the two people she misses dearly who occasionally appear in her dreams are standing in front of her.

This...this isn't a fabricated illusion, is it?

Rin instinctively felt this wasn't real and wanted to shatter the illusion, but she hesitated to act. Even if it was just a mirage, she just wanted to see it...

What if it's true?

"despair!"

Half of Tokitomi Tohsaka's suit was soaked with blood, which seeped from the wine-red hem and dripped onto the carpet with a soft sound.

With a blank look in his eyes, Shi Chen subconsciously reached out and touched his kidney, which still seemed to be throbbing with pain—the spot where his disciple had stabbed him in the back.

Now, only the punctures on the coat and lining, and warm blood remain; the wound... has disappeared.

"Am I not dead?"

The magician's bewildered gaze suddenly cleared, and he was quite startled upon realizing what had happened.

"But... my current situation."

Shi Chen looked at his hands stained with his own blood and the magic power surging within him, feeling somewhat bewildered.

"Time?"

Tohsaka Aoi frowned. Wasn't she supposed to be hiding at her parents' house? How did she suddenly end up at the Tohsaka family mansion? And...

"You're bleeding!"

Shi Chen stopped his wife from helping the girl, his gaze fixed on the emotionally agitated young woman before him.

The other party was a powerful magician, but there was no hostility. Instead, there was familiarity and warmth, as if he were the most important person to them.

"Father... Mother..."

Rin's vision blurred. It really was real! They were all standing right in front of her.

"Who are you?... Xiao Lin!"

Aoi Tohsaka wasn't sure at first, but as soon as Rin spoke, she immediately confirmed it, even though it seemed absurd, it was just a mother's instinct.

"It's me! It's me."

Tears streamed down her smooth, fair face, but she was smiling. Aoi Tohsaka also inexplicably shed tears, her heart aching terribly at seeing her suddenly grown-up daughter with such an expression.

They must have suffered a lot.

"Rin, you revived me using the Dragon Balls?"

They weren't so slow to realize the situation that they deduced the most reasonable truth based on the current circumstances.

"Is it ten years from now?"

"Yes, it has been ten years since the ceremony you attended."

Suppressing the urge to throw herself into her mother's arms, Rin quickly wiped away her tears and, with red eyes, tried to explain to her father.

"You certainly didn't disappoint me, Rin."

Shi Chen nodded in satisfaction. Even if he failed, his daughter's success was enough, and it would fulfill the family's long-cherished wish.

Ok?

Autumn beans and burlap sacks —

Rin didn't use this wish to reach the Root, but instead resurrected herself?

You spendthrift girl!!!

This is the kind of situation where someone is about to be driven crazy just after being resurrected!

His previously relieved expression turned dark in an instant, and Shi Chen looked at Rin as if he were staring at his enemy.

That's right, it's the look in the eyes of a poor person who can't afford to eat as they watch a rich person pour milk into a river.

The smile on Miss Rin's face gradually faded...

Chapter 144

The smile on Miss Rin's face gradually faded...

"Crepes, double the sweet cream."

Lily delivered the sweets she had bought in line to Pendragon.

"Thank you."

Although she took a bite immediately after receiving it, Lily knew that her mood hadn't improved.

Having already gained experience, Saber's feelings are completely written on her ahoge (cowlick), making her easier to understand than anything else.

With a slight sigh, Lily didn't ask any more questions. She sat down next to Pendragon, lost in thought about what had happened that day.

"Saber? Where did you go?"

Pendragon, who was lost in thought after finishing his sweets, suddenly received a "phone call"—it was Rin's voice.

"In the park."

Pendragon glanced to the left and added, "With Lily-chan."

"..."

Miss Rin suddenly fell silent, lost in thought.

Why bring this up specifically? Has Lily already successfully poached them in such a short time? Even the cat has disappeared…

Holy crap, they all look the same. The possibility of them being poached is not only real, but very high!

She remained silent because she couldn't think of a response; Miss Rin was starting to panic.

Are there many people in the park?

Miss Rin abruptly changed the subject, repeatedly telling herself that she was overthinking things.

"well enough."
