Chapter 48
"No..."
Rin Tohsaka wanted to retreat, but her body had already stiffened due to fear.
"Perfect, we were just about to have a party, but the number of people is not enough; you come and join too."
"Isn't it better to have more people for this kind of thing?"
Ryuunosuke Uryuu threw the two children on the ground and reached out to grab Rin Tohsaka.
"Snap!"
Suddenly, Rin Tohsaka's magic needle flashed, and Ryuunosuke Uryuu was directly bounced away by a burst of magic.
"What is that?"
And Rin Tohsaka finally reacted at this time, regained her movement, and started to retreat.
Rin Tohsaka: "What is that situation?"
Feng Xi: "It should be a warning mechanism that issues a warning when sensing dangerous magic; I didn't expect it to happen to save you in the video."
"Don't run!"
Ryuunosuke Uryuu continued to step forward to grab Rin Tohsaka, but was dodged flexibly by Rin Tohsaka.
At the same time, Rin Tohsaka also noticed that Ryuunosuke Uryuu was wearing a glowing purple bracelet on his hand.
"It's that bracelet that made them all..."
Rin Tohsaka immediately understood what was going on, quickly climbed onto the bar on the Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side, and kept throwing debris from the table at Ryuunosuke Uryuu.
"It hurts!"
Ryuunosuke Uryuu's wrist was hit, and he raised his hand subconsciously.
Rin Tohsaka was quick-eyed and fast-handed, grabbing the bracelet in one go.
"I must destroy it!"
Rin Tohsaka immediately cast magecraft to destroy this bracelet, but did not expect the bracelet to release a large amount of black magic directly, which backfired on her instead.
"What's wrong? You are still willing to stay."
Ryuunosuke Uryuu said proudly upon seeing this.
Rin Tohsaka's eyes slowly became as vacant as the other children.
The video paused.
[Question: How did Rin Tohsaka finally escape the clutches of the Caster group?]
[A: Failed to escape and was sacrificed by Bluebeard into a Sea Monster.]
[B: Saved by Tokiomi Tohsaka who arrived in time.]
[C: Saved by Kariya Matou who arrived in time.]
[D: Relied on luck and willpower to successfully save herself and escape.]
Iskandar: "This girl is very brave, but she is too reckless."
Waver: "Are you qualified to talk about others?"
Iskandar: "Haha. I have the confidence to be reckless."
"I wouldn't have really turned into that monster, would I?"
Thinking of the Sea Monster seen in the video earlier, Rin Tohsaka's little face turned pale.
"No, you wouldn't."
Feng Xi touched Rin Tohsaka's head and said: "Don't you forget, didn't the scene of you grown up going to the Clock Tower to study appear in the previous Q&A?"
"That's right!"
Rin Tohsaka clapped her hands and said: "In that case, A can be ruled out. Which answer could it be?"
Feng Xi whispered a few words in her ear.
"It should be B."
Tokiomi Tohsaka, on the opposite Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side, thought to himself.
After all, he had always let Kirei Kotomine and Hassan monitor every move of the other Masters; if they had found Rin, they should have known immediately.
"Kayneth, which answer should we choose?"
Sola asked Kayneth in a low voice.
Kayneth said directly: "Choose D."
Sola frowned: "That little girl saved herself; wouldn't that be too naive?"
"It's not naive; this is the experience I summarized after participating in several Q&As."
Kayneth said confidently: "When encountering this kind of multiple-choice question that relies on guessing, choose the most unlikely answer."
"Is that so?"
Sola did not quite believe it, but still chose D.
After all, she was participating in the Q&A for the first time, so it was better to listen to Kayneth.
[The answering time is over; the answer is now being announced.]
[The video continues.]
Rin Tohsaka, whose consciousness was about to be submerged, suddenly recovered; she had actually resisted it.
Subsequently, Rin Tohsaka increased her magic output and suppressed the black magic instead.
"What's wrong!"
Ryuunosuke Uryuu also felt something was wrong when he saw this.
"What is this!"
Rin Tohsaka roared and used her maximum magic output.
With a 'boom,' the purple bracelet exploded immediately.
"Ah!!!"
Ryuunosuke Uryuu was directly hit by the explosion in the face and let out screams.
Sola: "How is that possible!"
"See, I was right, wasn't I."
Kayneth thought to himself: "However, this Tokiomi Tohsaka has indeed given birth to a good daughter; her talent for magecraft is so high that she could even destroy Bluebeard's magical item."
Zhang Jiao: "Hehe, this girl is a good seedling."
"Hehe."
Seeing herself successfully counter-kill in the video, Rin Tohsaka also felt a little proud in her heart.
As Ryuunosuke Uryuu's magical item was destroyed, the magecraft on the group of children was also lifted.
"Uh..."
Rin Tohsaka's good friend Kotone was the first to regain her sanity.
"Kotone!"
Rin Tohsaka immediately went up to support her.
"Rin, where is this?"
Kotone was still somewhat dazed at this time, and the other children, seeing that they were in a strange place, all started crying.
"No time to cry, run!"
Rin Tohsaka roared, and the children reacted immediately, running out of the basement one after another.
"Hey, stop!"
Ryuunosuke Uryuu wanted to chase, but stopped his steps and bent down to pick up the destroyed bracelet.
"Oh my, the old man will be angry now."
"Phew..."
Seeing that she had safely rescued her friend, Rin also breathed a sigh of relief.
The escaped children were quickly discovered by a patrol car and rescued.
"Little Rin?"
Coming to her senses, Qinyin wanted to find Rin Tohsaka, but the other party had already left.
"Great, let's go back."
Seeing that her friend was safe, Rin Tohsaka felt a wave of exhaustion wash over her. She forced herself to walk toward the station, intending to rush back immediately so as not to worry her mother.
"I did it, Father."
Rin Tohsaka raised the magic needle, but she did not expect the needle to give a warning reaction again.
"What's wrong?"
Rin Tohsaka turned her head subconsciously; a sea monster descended from the sky, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws as it lunged at her.
Rin Tohsaka was terrified once again, frozen in place, completely motionless.
"This..."
Rin Tohsaka was shocked; she had not expected such a turn of events.
Could it be that she failed to escape the clutches of Bluebeard in the end?
"Rin!"
Tokiomi Tohsaka's heart tightened as well.
Suddenly, another anomaly occurred.
Rin Tohsaka suddenly heard a rustling sound. She subconsciously looked ahead, only to see a large number of insects flying past her.
With her magic depleted, her physical strength exhausted, and suffering from one mental shock after another, Rin Tohsaka finally could not hold on any longer and fainted.
"Insect Magecraft, is it that guy?"
Tokiomi Tohsaka looked at Kariya Matou opposite him.
"Hmph!"
Kariya Matou let out a cold snort, turned his head, and looked at Rin Tohsaka.
Tokiomi Tohsaka was indeed not worth trusting; at the critical moment, he still had to rely on himself.
On the other Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side, Aoi Tohsaka, having discovered that Rin Tohsaka was missing, also drove back to Fuyuki.
"Rin!"
After some searching, Aoi Tohsaka finally found the unconscious Rin Tohsaka on a park bench.
"Little Rin is fine, she's just asleep."
At this moment, a voice rang out from under a nearby streetlamp; it was none other than Kariya Matou.
"What is going on? Kariya, your face!"
Aoi Tohsaka was shocked to see the half of Kariya Matou's face covered in bulging veins.
"This is the Magecraft of the Matou family: sacrificing the flesh and eroding life."
Kariya Matou said in a deep voice, "But don't worry, I will rescue Sakura before that happens."
"Zouken only wants the Holy Grail; if we give him Sakura, she can be saved."
"Don't worry, my Servant is the strongest."
"Ha, the strongest."
Gilgamesh said disdainfully, "Are you joking with this King? Just that mad dog?"
Artoria said in a deep voice, "Gilgamesh, retract your rude words."
Lancelot said calmly, "My King, there is no need to be angry over this matter."
"Pray for me, Aoi. I will definitely make Sakura and Rin sisters again, playing happily in this park."
Confirming that Rin Tohsaka was safe, Kariya Matou turned and left immediately.
Seeing this scene, Tokiomi Tohsaka was suddenly quite displeased.
That is my wife; why should she pray for you?
At the same time, he also hated his own ignorance.
He had actually failed to see the true face of Zouken Matou and had pushed his daughter into a pit of fire.
"Master, should we not care about Tokiomi Tohsaka's wife and daughter?"
On a tree in the park, a Hassan was hiding, transmitting his voice to Kirei Kotomine.
"No need, continue to monitor Berserker."
Kirei Kotomine said coldly from the other Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side.
The video ends here.
"Hmm?"
Tokiomi Tohsaka looked at Kirei Kotomine suspiciously.
Looking at the video, Kirei Kotomine did not seem to intend to tell him about his wife and daughter returning to Fuyuki.
"The Lady is a sensible person; she will definitely leave Fuyuki immediately."
Kirei Kotomine's expression remained unchanged as he explained to Tokiomi Tohsaka.
"Do not let such a thing happen again."
Although still somewhat dissatisfied, Tokiomi Tohsaka did not intend to pursue the matter further.
After all, the events in the video had not happened in reality, and he could not blame Kirei Kotomine for this.
[The correct answer is C.]
[Congratulations to Feng Xi, Artoria, Lancelot, Kariya Matou, Rin Tohsaka, Sakura Tohsaka, Aoi, Zhang Jiao, Red Hare, and Ishtar for receiving 5 Saint Quartz.]
[Bluebeard gives up on this round of answering.]
[The remaining group members answered incorrectly and will have 1 Saint Quartz deducted.]
"Stare..."
Sola looked at Kayneth, the meaning clearly being to ask for an explanation.
Kayneth was also a bit embarrassed; he had not expected this question to not follow the usual pattern.
Waver and the others on the Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side were also speechless; they had made the same mistake.
Emiya Kiritsugu was much more steady, directly having his four people choose B, C, and D respectively.
Their luck was good; two people answered correctly.
[The second question is over. Now, let's begin today's final question.]
[This is a multiple-choice question. Please watch the following images and choose the person who has the closest relationship with the King of Conquerors.]
Iskandar: "Haha, is today's final question related to this King?"
"Don't tell me we have to guess again." Kayneth suddenly had a headache.
He was truly terrified by these questions that required guessing.
Rin Tohsaka: "Hey, hey, this question is too favorable to the Rider group, right?"
Feng Xi: "Forget it, anyway, the King of Conquerors will definitely Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take first place today."
Iskandar: "Hahaha, thank you for your kind words."
[A: A thin, red-haired boy appears in the picture, looking very handsome.]
Seeing the person in the picture, Feng Xi was speechless.
It seems he really has to give up the throne of first place today.
And Iskandar had clearly learned his lesson; he did not shout it out, but only whispered a few words in Waver's ear.
Waver was very surprised after hearing this, with an expression of disbelief.
