Chapter 858

However, they're magi, after all — there are plenty of abnormal people among them.

With Rin Tohsaka's little quirks, she's perfectly normal, really.

It's just that the other party had that look of staring at an idiot just now, and recalling it is somewhat irritating.

"Since you don't mind on your end, I'll go probe your husband's side instead~"

One scheme failing, Luviagelita Edelfelt came up with a new idea.

"King of Knights, I heard from my mother-in-law that she's a serious Knight————"

When Luviagelita Edelfelt arrived at the faculty dormitory area, Broly and Gray had already finished their detective deduction game and were chatting about Artoria's matters.

"Senior Sister Luvia."

The person walked straight over; seeing the other party, Gray stood up and greeted her.

"I'm not disturbing you two, am I?"

Luvia looked at the two, a polite smile on her face.

。888

"No, we were just chatting about historical figures. Do you have some business?"

Gray shook her head, then asked.

"Well, I ordered some snacks and thought I'd bring some over to your side as well."

Luvia lifted the exquisite lunch box in her hand.

"、No need————"

Gray subconsciously wanted to refuse.

"Don't stand on ceremony with me; we're both Lord Waver's students, and you're my junior sister, after all."

Luvia had an ulterior motive in coming to curry favor, so naturally she wouldn't take the girl's refusal.

"Ah, then thank you."

Gray could only accept the visitor's kindness.

And after settling Gray, Luvia also turned her gaze to Broly; after hearing that Rin Tohsaka was getting married, she had people investigate this person's background.

However, the investigation up to now had only yielded some superficial information — hmm, someone who isn't a magus, yet once intervened in the Eastern Land's Fourth True Holy Grail War, and with his own strength defeated several Heroic Spirits of the seven Classes.

"I recall you're Tohsaka's husband, Mr. Broly, right? Care to have some together?"

Luvia asked with a smile.

"Sure."

Broly didn't refuse; he still remembered this person attended his wedding, was Rin Tohsaka's classmate.

"I wonder, Mr. Broly, where are you employed nowadays?"

The fine snacks were being shared; Luvia took out the tea she had specially brought, poured a cup for Broly, then asked with a casual air.

"Me, unemployed."

Broly glanced at this person, accepted her tea and drank it down, then didn't evade the question either.

"How could that be? On the wedding day, I even saw the Magus Marshal attend the banquet."

"Magus Marshal? You mean that spirited old man? Isn't he from Rin's natal family's side?"

"That's indeed the case, but that lord doesn't like meddling in worldly affairs; when previous Tohsaka family heads married, he wasn't seen attending anyone's wedding, let alone gifting a sealing Mystic Code like the Gem Sword. One would think this should be related to Mr. Broly yourself."

"Oh."

Luvia:

"

、Broly's bland, indifferent response made her feel a little frantic inside.

Truly, the person before her and Rin Tohsaka are worthy of being a couple — both a bit infuriating.

"But I wonder, Mr. Broly, what relationship do you have with the Magus Marshal? If possible, my Family wishes to use your connection to get in touch with that lord."

"Don't know him, no relation. If you have business, go find Rin; if your relationship with Rin is good enough that she's willing to help you."

"Very well, it seems I was a bit presumptuous."

Failing to probe the biggest secret, Luvia wasn't too disappointed; she regrouped and continued probing.

"By the way, Mr. Broly, at the wedding I saw Lord Waver and Lord Iskandar chatting very amiably with you, yet I wonder what relationship you have with my two teachers?"

"Are you investigating my background?"

"No no no, just that the festival is coming up, and I'm preparing a generous gift for my teachers."

"What does that have to do with me?"

"If you're friends with my teachers, then at that time I can also prepare a gift for you."

This reason is a bit far-fetched, but courtesy demands reciprocity.

"That won't be necessary; I'm not friends with your two teachers, just met them once when I was a child, probably.

And at the wedding, they approached me to talk on their own, and I couldn't very well slight the guests."

Luvia, Gray: "————

They chatted so amiably at the wedding, and afterward even gave several bottles of fine wine that Iskandar praised endlessly, yet it turns out they're not acquainted?

"Cough cough, I've heard Lord Waver mention you; he said you once intervened in the Eastern Land's True Holy Grail War, and with a mortal body defeated Familiars like Heroic Spirits — wonder if that's true?"

"There was such a thing, so what?"

"It's like this: I also intend to challenge Heroic Spirits with a mortal body, so I want to ask a senior like you who succeeded in challenging Heroic Spirits for some experience — would that be alright?"

"What nonsense? I challenged Heroic Spirits?"

"、It wasn't like that?"

"Those Heroic Spirits challenged me, more like."

"Ah, that one's my fault————"

Luvia hurriedly apologized, then asked.

"Mr. Broly, I wonder if you could share with this little woman the experience of being challenged by a Heroic Spirit?"

"One I killed instantly, nothing to say about that. The other entangled with me for a while, very good at dodging, but he actually dared stand on the left side when clashing beams with me, so he got insta-killed too.

"7

Luvia: "???"

What is clashing beams?

Why would standing on the left side get you insta-killed?

Also, that Heroic Spirit thing, can it be insta-killed?

She still had many questions, but Broly had already finished eating her snacks.

"Miss Luvia, thank you for the snacks. Gray and I have business, so we'll be leaving first."

Broly stood up, pulled the somewhat stunned Gravekeeper girl into his arms, lifted her in a princess carry, and ran off in a puff of smoke.

"Mr. Broly, where are we going?"

After running all the way out of the Clock Tower without a hitch, the Gravekeeper girl finally reacted and asked in confusion.

"Don't know. Anyway, just going to a place where no one disturbs me capturing you."

Gray froze, then thought of something, her eyes gradually widening.

【Mr. Broly, this is what you call a place where no one disturbs you capturing me?】

【Yeah, the British Library, very quiet, we're in a corner too, isn't that no one disturbing us?】

Looking at the text written on the paper handed to her, Gray felt a bit helpless, wanting to laugh and cry.

【So, what are we going to do next?】

【Don't know. Whatever you want to do, I'll accompany you.】

【What if I don't know either?】

【How about we chat more about Arthur Pendragon?】

【The library must stay quiet, we can't just chat haphazardly, right?】

【We'll write on paper to chat.】

The gray-haired Gravekeeper girl raised her head, looked at the serious Saiyan boy opposite her, and felt that getting along with someone like this was very relaxed.

Holding a pen, she wrote on the paper: 【Okay.】

Writing notes face to face, though they talked about Arthur Pendragon, what they discussed was feelings.

By the time the library closed and cleared guests, Gray's Happiness Value had risen again.

In the evening, Broly mentioned to Rin Tohsaka the matter of Luvia investigating him.

"Haha, that guy always wants to compare with me. Since she wants to investigate you, just let her. It'll make her jealous that I found a good husband~"

Rin Tohsaka not only didn't mind, but actually hoped Luvia would come investigate. Good things should be shown off to make people jealous, envious, and hateful.

"But, she disturbed me and Gray cultivating feelings."

"Hmm, that... then I'll go tell her."

Next day, Rin Tohsaka sought out Luvia. When Luvia came to find him again, she didn't continue being a third wheel, but instead started acting as a wingman.

"Mr. Broly, my family has a cinema that just opened. The manager sent some movie tickets, wanting to invite you and Gray to watch together."

In the cinema, Broly and Gray had adjacent seats. Luvia sat in the row behind, very sensible.

Afterwards, Broly asked Rin Tohsaka and learned what his wife actually said to that person.

"I told that guy if she wants to inquire about you, she should exchange it for actual actions helping you better capture Gray. So, that guy currying favor with you and Gray, just accept it directly."

When saying this, Rin Tohsaka's expression was rather smug.

After all, her side counted as showing off and still earned money.

【Truly doesn't hide her habit of being strict with others and lenient with herself at all————】

And while Rin Tohsaka thought Luvia was a fool, Luvia's opinion of her was also rather subtle.

【Could it be that Tohsaka guy thinks this is something to brag about? Actually making me help her man capture other girls.】

"Forget it. Whatever that guy thinks, I'll satisfy my own curiosity first."

The more Luvia investigated Broly, the more curious she became about this person.

"Mr. Broly, please guide me~"

In the Individual Reinforcement Department training room, Luvia in training gear bowed with a fist salute to Broly.

"Mm, I'll guide you properly."

Broly nodded. The movie tickets the other party gave raised Gray's Happiness Value considerably, so he didn't mind repaying her.

"Who is that guy? He actually wants to fight Luvia. Doesn't he know the Edelfelt family's Big Sister is the famous 【Crane Among Ladies】 in our Clock Tower?"

"Don't know, don't recognize him. Maybe a freshman."

"Then that guy's unlucky. Anyone who spars with Luvia basically has to lie in bed for days."

When Waver passed by the Individual Basic Reinforcement Department training room, he heard students saying this.

"Sigh~"

His student looks like a lady, but her methods are not ladylike at all.

What crane, violent female gorilla — it's made his classroom seem like other female students at the Clock Tower have been afraid of it these past two years.

"Excuse me, excuse me————

Just as Waver squeezed through the crowd watching the excitement, intending to remind his student not to be too heavy-handed on the freshman and try to salvage his classroom's image, what he saw after squeezing in was the girl being beaten with no power to fight back.

Luviagelita Edelfelt, praised in the Clock Tower as "Finland's Tomorrow's Star," "Arena's Hunting Dog," "Crane Among Ladies" for her superb wrestling technique, now looked like a child who couldn't fight, being tugged and manipulated haphazardly.

"Your power generation technique isn't good enough, it should be like this————"

"You also have too many surplus movements, don't lift your leg too high————"

"

Luvia attacked, Broly countered each one, then imitated and optimized her attack moves to strike back at her, directly achieving on-site instruction, teaching by word and deed.

The Individual Foundation Enhancement Division trainees, from initially coming to watch the newcomer get beaten, turned into watching the newly arrived Individual Foundation Enhancement Division combat class teacher's on-site instructional guidance.

Even though Broly wasn't instructing them, they still benefited greatly from the process of Broly instructing Luvia.

In the crowd, people began discussing which combat class teacher Broly was, yet all wanted to go register and learn a bit.

Only Waver was somewhat dazed, not knowing why Broly would be in the Clock Tower, teaching his own student combat technique.

Luvia's physical strength was limited, Broly also couldn't use Qi to restore her stamina, after all wanting to finish repaying the other's assist early, then continue capturing Gray.

"Alright, this is your insufficiency, remember it yourself, just practice and correct it."

The instruction class ended quickly, Broly finished speaking to Luvia lying prone on the ground, whole body sore, limp and powerless, then walked toward the training ground edge.

"Thanks for the hard work."

Gray came up to meet him, handed him a towel, acting like a little girlfriend.

"Thank you."

Although Broly hadn't sweated, his body was stained with quite a bit of Luvia's sweat, after saying thanks he took the towel from the Gravekeeper girl's hand and wiped himself.

In the crowd, Waver saw this scene, expression quite startled, not understanding why his disciple looked so familiar with Broly.

Moreover, it looked like an unusual familiarity.

Also, when did Rin Tohsaka and Luviagelita Edelfelt get on good terms?

"Haha, I said long ago that's just three-legged cat kung fu, you still didn't believe."

Rin Tohsaka, supporting Luvia up, didn't stint on her mockery at all.

"Ah, I said why you'd be better than me, turns out someone secretly gave you extra training!"

Luvia's stamina gave out, but her mouth wasn't weak.

"Bullshit, fighting you was all my own training, I never let Broly instruct me."

"Hmph, I don't believe it."

"Believe it or not, and even if instructed, that's still my ability, after all, Broly is my man, and you don't have one."

Luvia fell silent, not knowing what she was thinking.

", you're not retorting?"

Rin Tohsaka didn't hear the other's hard-mouthed retort, looked at her with some surprise.

"What would I retort, what you said is indeed fact."

"Really boring, you just admitted defeat————"

"Heh, as if, you wait, the man I find later definitely won't lose to yours."

The two bickered, giving a feeling they truly were fated rivals.

"Senior Sister Tohsaka, Teacher Waver is looking for you~"

After sending Luvia back to the dormitory, a female classmate ran over to notify her.

"Do you know what Teacher Waver wants me for?"

"Don't know."

"Then what's his expression like?"

"Seems somewhat gloomy."

"Okay, thank you for coming to notify me."
