Chapter 92

Boom!

Rin stared at her slightly red hands in surprise. She remembered that she was a magician and had never, and probably never would, possess the terrifying strength of a Berserker. The polished table, reflecting the sunlight from outside, remained unscathed. Could that loud noise just now have been caused by her...?

The girl tilted her head, looking at Levi with confusion.

Boom!

Before either of them could speak, Kaguya proved how accurate Rin’s evaluation of her as an excellent Master was. A construction site visible from the window was enveloped in a cloud of dust and smoke.

Witnessing the explosion, Levi immediately realized that Kaguya was engaged in battle with the enemy’s Servant. He decisively scooped up the somewhat cute and dazed-looking Rin, turned around, and teleported to the scene as quickly as possible. If Kaguya continued her destruction, it would be impossible to cover it up with an excuse like a demolition.

Bang!

Almost at the same moment Levi and Rin disappeared, the tightly closed door of the Student Council office was forcefully pushed open. A long-haired girl wearing an orange headband walked in, her face showing disappointment when she found no one there.

Amidst the scattered steel and concrete debris, the construction site lay in ruins. Apart from the black-haired girl standing amidst the rubble, there was no sign of any enemy. Kaguya turned to look at Levi and Rin, who had just appeared behind her. She put away the branch-like object in her hand, a few drops of blood dripping from her fingertips onto the dusty ground.

“You’re injured!?”

Seeing her Servant wounded, Rin rushed forward to cast a healing spell without asking what had happened. A faint white light swept over her, and the blood stopped dripping. Only a slightly glaring red mark remained on Kaguya’s pale hand.

“Um, no other injuries?”

Levi was about to check Kaguya’s wound, but she subtly avoided his touch, reminding him that they had only known each other for a few days. He scratched his chin awkwardly and asked.

The girl shook her head lightly and looked into the distance, probably in the direction the enemy had fled.

“Did the enemy have any special movement skills, like magic?”

The earlier commotion seemed more like the enemy being discovered and escaping before reinforcements arrived, rather than a real battle. With Kaguya’s flight ability and other spells typical of a Caster, it should not have been easy for the enemy to escape.

“No.”

The girl tilted her head in thought, answering with a puzzled look, as if she found it strange that her Master would ask such a question.

“Maybe it was a fast Servant? Rin, isn’t the fastest Servant supposed to be a Rider?”

“According to the class settings, that’s correct, but some Servants might have special abilities. Like Kaguya, who is a Caster but can move quickly by flying.”

“If they used magic, there should be residual magical energy, but with the state of the scene...”

The chaotic magical energy lingering everywhere, all caused by Kaguya, made it difficult to find any clues about the enemy. Levi waved his hand, indicating he was at a loss.

“What are you talking about? The enemy was a Servant who used a spear, not magic.”

Kaguya finally spoke up, having been confused by their discussion from the start.

“A spear? Magic bullets or something? Servants don’t go out to buy bullets, you know. That stuff is hard to find on the Academy Island. I’ve encountered similar opponents before, who used special abilities to activate firearms.”

“Yes, in the previous Holy Grail War, a magician who used a gun as a weapon participated.”

The magician Rin mentioned had temporarily lived on the Academy Island during the last Holy Grail War and then mysteriously disappeared, leaving behind an old house that students now considered haunted.

“Wait! I’m talking about a spear! A long spear! A cold weapon, not a firearm!”

The two self-important idiots had confused Kaguya. She couldn’t help but lower her noble lady’s dignity, waving her wide sleeves and making a thrusting motion with a spear.

“Oh...”

“Um... a spear with a sharp tip?”

It’s no wonder Levi and Rin were confused. With the rapid development of modern technology, new weapons have replaced old combat methods. To avoid drawing attention from ordinary humans, special ability users mostly choose daggers or other small, easily hidden weapons. Imagine a heavily armored cavalryman walking through a modern city; even in movies, that’s rare.

“Haha, it’s a small issue, don’t worry about it.”

The young lady magician used laughter to cover her embarrassment, but the slight twitching of her eyebrows showed she wasn’t as unconcerned as she claimed.

“Since it’s a spear, it’s probably a Lancer. After all, Levi has confirmed that the Rider’s weapon is not a spear, and the remaining Saber and Archer wouldn’t use such a weapon.”

The young lady, having forgotten the pain, was once again making hasty conclusions. Spears were used as throwing weapons in ancient times, and it’s entirely possible for an Archer to use a spear, like the unfortunate hero who was killed by a spear through the heel. Rin had clearly forgotten this famous hero.

“However, although melee Servants are agile, what method could they use to evade your aerial pursuit?”

The young lady, who came from a scientific society, didn’t need to be shy. After all, even Levi, who had survived in a world where cold weapons were still dominant, had misunderstood Kaguya. Rin, always eager to assert her role as a Master, wanted to show her strength in front of her Servant. Her competitive nature was, in a way, endearing.

Levi turned his gaze back to Kaguya. When she first arrived, she gave the impression of being calm, elegant, and indifferent to her surroundings, treating everyone with a distant attitude. But this impression was slowly changing. She had started playing games secretly at night, and in daily life, she was less silent. She even occasionally chatted with the newly arrived Mengmeng, despite having hardly spoken to Rin before.

Levi’s lips curved into a slight smile. He was increasingly confident in his judgment of Kaguya. She was like Evi, afraid of loneliness but also proud, hiding everything inside. The difference was in how they expressed it, but the essence was the same as the temperamental vampire girl. Perhaps it was a form of self-abandonment after her secret was discovered, but Kaguya’s change was something Levi was happy to see. Even from his own perspective, he hoped for more laughter and joy at home.

Kaguya looked around casually and suddenly noticed Levi’s gaze. The faint smile on his face reminded her of the embarrassing moment when she was caught playing games. She quickly turned her head away before Levi noticed, secretly planning to find a way to keep him from talking, otherwise, the danger would always be there, making her feel uneasy.

The saying that good intentions don’t always bring good results is truly an unchanging truth. Levi felt relieved by Kaguya’s transformation, but he didn’t realize that this would lead to him being outsmarted by the girl. What other trials await this poor man? Let’s wait and see.
