Chapter 162 The Highest Throne
Chapter 162 The Highest Throne
"Fine, just do as I say."
Rin Tohsaka didn't expect Lin Yu to show her anything interesting.
"Then guess what I did last night?" Lin Yu said.
The main problem is that there's no one who poses a threat to him in this Holy Grail War.
Only Saber Artoria and Gilgamesh, whose Noble Phantasms might pose a slight threat to him, but only a small one.
"Gathering intelligence? Detecting enemy positions?"
Rin Tohsaka looked at Lin Yu with suspicion. Could this guy have actually done something worthwhile?
However, Lin Yu's answer shattered her hopes and made her accept reality—her Servant was indeed unreliable.
"Of course not. Last night, I used your money to go out and have fun."
Rin Tohsaka ( ??д?? )
"You mean you took my money?"
"Yes, it's just a bit little."
Rin Tohsaka (╯°Д°)╯︵┴┴
"So you've been living it up with my money, and now you're using it to treat me to dinner!"
Rin Tohsaka's voice suddenly rose several octaves. What kind of servant takes Master's money to go out and have a good time, and doesn't even know to bring her a meal when she comes back?
"Isn't this just to experience the local customs and culture?"
Lin Yu chuckled cheekily, saying that being arrogant was the most interesting thing, and that's why she reacted like this after being teased.
"Ah~"
Rin Tohsaka sighed and decided not to dwell on Lin Yu's behavior last night.
She knew that getting angry with this Servant would only hurt her in the end, so she turned her attention to Lin Yu's actual combat strength, which was the most important thing for the Holy Grail War.
"Okay, let's change the subject. You still can't remember your name and origins?"
Rin Tohsaka asked, a hint of helplessness in her voice.
Lin Yu replied in a serious tone: "If I said I'm the savior of the world, and I have many titles, would you believe me?"
Rin Tohsaka rolled her eyes at him, convinced that Lin Yu was joking again.
As a seventeen-year-old apprentice magician, she knew about major historical events and important figures, but had never heard of such a person.
"Alright, since you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."
Lin Yu shrugged, indicating his helplessness.
Rin Tohsaka had almost finished eating, and it was indeed time for them to leave the restaurant.
She picked up her coat and said as she walked, "If you can't remember, that's fine. You don't need to make up this kind of story. I'm sure you're not a famous person, otherwise your story wouldn't be so bad."
As Lin Yu exists in a spirit form, he naturally cannot pay the bill himself, so he had already transferred the money to Rin Tohsaka.
They left the restaurant and came to a quiet alley. Lin Yu returned to his physical form. He felt that although the spirit state was wonderful, he still preferred the feeling of having a physical body and being able to move freely.
Rin Tohsaka was indeed surprised that Lin Yu had changed into modern clothes here yesterday.
Instead of wearing a formal black suit like some heroic spirits, he chose a casual yet appropriate outfit, a relaxed style that made him seem more integrated into the era.
"You look quite dashing in this outfit. I'm starting to wonder if you're a modern-day heroic spirit."
Rin Tohsaka sized up Lin Yu, especially noting the sunglasses he was wearing, which added to his fashionable look. "Your ability to adapt to this era is too strong, isn't it? But shouldn't modern Heroic Spirits be magicians, playwrights, scientists, and the like? A Heroic Spirit like you is truly rare."
Rin Tohsaka's curiosity was completely aroused, and the more she tried to uncover the mystery of Lin Yu's identity, the more confused she became.
She knew that heroic spirits were usually figures who had a significant impact on history, but Lin Yu's existence seemed to break this convention.
"Your taste is indeed excellent, but your identity remains a mystery." Rin Tohsaka shook her head. Shouldn't someone like that be kept in obscurity?
"You're absolutely right, my Rin," Lin Yu said with a smile.
If he were to take the One-Punch Man version of the Supreme Throne out of the spatial world, Rin Tohsaka might be even more shocked, and might even begin to doubt whether he really comes from the future, or has some kind of power that transcends time.
"Humph!"
Rin Tohsaka gave a haughty snort, expressing her dissatisfaction and suspicion. This man was so irresponsible every day. She then turned and left.
.........
Rin Tohsaka's doubts deepened as Lin Yu demonstrated his abilities.
They spent the whole day wandering around Fuyuki City, and in the evening, Lin Yu took her directly to the outskirts of the city.
Since the Holy Grail War had not yet officially begun and Saber had not yet been summoned, Lin Yu appeared quite relaxed, exploring the area with Rin Tohsaka.
"I'm getting more and more confused. Are you a magician? How can you carry me and make me fly?"
Rin Tohsaka was carried to the suburbs by Lin Yu using telekinesis, a phenomenon that confused her even more.
Lin Yu, this Archer, is unarmed and can use magic, but he is never seen carrying a bow and arrow, which makes Rin Tohsaka wonder how he became an Archer.
"Could it be that he can throw chairs?" Rin Tohsaka wondered to herself, filled with doubts about the Servant's true identity and abilities.
Lin Yu stood on the open ground, stretching out his body, ready to demonstrate his power to Rin Tohsaka.
“Now I’ll give you some confidence and let you witness my power, so you can relax a bit,” he said, then asked a question that puzzled Rin Tohsaka: “By the way, what aspect of my strength do you want to know about?”
Rin Tohsaka was baffled by the question. She didn't understand why Lin Yu would ask such a question. Did she need to choose to demonstrate her power?
She began to doubt again whether Lin Yu was really reliable.
"What do you mean?"
Rin Tohsaka asked, puzzled, her brows furrowing slightly. She felt that demonstrating power should be a direct and simple thing, so why did he make it sound so grand and sophisticated?
"It means exactly what it says, which part of my ability do you want to see?"
Rin Tohsaka was surprised by Lin Yu's words, but still raised her own questions.
"Archer's ranged abilities?"
She asked the question, one she had always wanted to understand, and now that she had the chance to get the answer, she naturally wouldn't let it pass.
"A long-range attack method?"
Lin Yu looked around at the surroundings; it was a bit small, but it should be manageable.
But Lin Yu's glances around made Rin Tohsaka's heart skip a beat. "Could it be that her Archer really doesn't have ranged attack capabilities?"
"Come out, Supreme Throne!"
Boom!
Lin Yu directly summoned the Supreme Throne from the spatial world, and its massive body crushed the surrounding flat ground.
"........"
Looking at the enormous mecha in front of her, its dark and gleaming body, Rin Tohsaka's mind went blank for a moment.
"You...then...what is this?"
