President Yalin is still more interested in the other world.
......
Type-Moon, Suginami Ward, Tokyo, bookstore.
Yalin went to the balcony and let the morning light shine on his face.
Composing himself and sensing the surging power within his body, like a volcano, he smiled with relief.
"With my current strength, protecting myself and Aika in the Holy Grail War shouldn't be a problem."
Sajou Aika's talent is indeed remarkable. The more Yalin learns about magic, the more he thinks that Aika is cheating.
However, there are too many variables in the Holy Grail War, and Yalin has always been cautious.
What if this Tokyo Holy Grail War turns out to be a God Grail War, resulting in a bunch of top-tier Servants?
If that's the case, Yalin will move house while he's having a headache.
He feared that after the cup competition, Tokyo would become a thing of the past.
Of course, Yalin would not underestimate himself.
As long as there isn't an extreme situation where gods and immortals are everywhere, he feels he's still quite capable.
Over the past six months, Yalin has continuously cultivated and studied, enabling his overall strength to leap across several levels and reach the realm of the superhuman.
He was an expert in magic, and even within the Clock Tower, he was considered quite knowledgeable.
His mastery of magic for enhancing his body is unparalleled; he can buff himself with a bunch of buffs in the blink of an eye and then face off against Servants head-on.
After undergoing countless trials and tribulations, this body's current stats are incredibly impressive.
Even compared to those inhuman Servants, they are not inferior.
......
After assessing his condition, Yalin spread his right hand, clenched it into a fist, and then swung it forward like a cannon.
The sonic boom exploded in the air, the air was instantly distorted, and the invisible air wave surged forward as if it had become a tangible force, sweeping away everything around it.
If the building hadn't been protected by a barrier, the disturbance caused by this attack would have been enough to alarm the entire Shanping District.
Yalin was not surprised by this power.
This is just his basic state; he hasn't been enhanced with buffs or had time acceleration activated.
"Hokage Yarin shared his training experience in Sage Mode. If we can use it in this world, we'll have a sure win in this Holy Grail War."
After the warm-up activities, Yalin began to consider the feasibility of this approach.
Sage Mode affects the body's overall amplitude, which Enhancement Magic cannot match.
The rules of the two worlds are simply different.
Even if Yalin knew how to extract chakra, given the limitations of the world's underlying structure, he could at most create a dubious imitation.
Even so, if it were to be developed, it would be of great benefit to Yalin.
"We could use magic to replace chakra and natural energy, and use that to develop a Type-Moon version of Enhancement Magic: Sage Mode."
Like chakra, Type-Moon's magic is also omnipotent.
If the quantity is large enough and the application is appropriate, it is sufficient to bring to life all kinds of miracles in the eyes of ordinary people.
Coincidentally, what Yalin has the least to lack right now is magic.
If the magic within him was a stream six months ago, it is now a vast, boundless lake.
If an ordinary magician knew this, he would probably question his existence.
However, the Holy Grail War is currently a higher priority.
Arlin was not actually enthusiastic about the Holy Grail War.
Due to the malice of the mushrooms, these Holy Grails are most likely all problematic.
Making a wish with this thing would likely harm both yourself and others in the end.
Kiritsugu Emiya should have a deep understanding of this.
Of course, for a traditional magician, getting to the root of the problem is the key.
This is also the basis upon which the Holy Grail War was able to unfold.
As a novice magician, Yalin doesn't have much of an obsession with the origin.
At his current level, he is not yet capable of exploring the truth of all things or analyzing the origin of the world.
If they really go in, they might not be able to get out.
The idea that "if I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening" is not suitable for Yalin.
If Aika hadn't gotten involved, given his personality, he probably would have chosen to leave Tokyo.
......
"Since there's no way to avoid it, let's use the Holy Grail War as a stage to test our current level."
Isn't it a rare kind of fun to fight heroic spirits with a human body?
In the kitchen, Yalin muttered to himself as he made breakfast.
Coming to Type-Moon without fighting the Heroic Spirits feels like something's missing.
The moment he poured the warm milk into the cup, a strange movement appeared on his right wrist, and a few breaths later, a black wing-shaped holy mark was engraved on his skin.
"Am I chosen by the Holy Grail?"
Yalin was somewhat surprised by this, as he had originally planned to assist Aige in the first round.
He frowned slightly as he gazed at the Command Seal of the Archangel, which symbolized the seventh rank.
The Tokyo Holy Grail War differs from the Fuyuki Holy Grail War because the cup was contributed by the Holy Church, and therefore the Command Seals symbolize the stairway of angels.
The level of a Master is determined by the mystical qualities possessed by the magician.
The first one is a seraphim with seven feathers, and the last one is a angel with one feather.
"This assessment is flawed. How come I have the lowest magical literacy among all the Masters?"
It's understandable that it's not Seraph Ayrin, since Aika is purely heterosexual. But the last one is truly outrageous.
Even after only six months of study under the tutelage of the renowned teacher Ai Ge, his magical skills would be on par with those of an ordinary magician. He would also have a thorough grasp of various esoteric techniques.
Yalin suspected that he was being targeted by the Holy Grail.
"Never mind, this is a minor issue and not worth mentioning."
Yalin put this question aside for the time being.
If he can fight his way through the Holy Grail War and reach the Greater Grail, he can dismantle the cup and study its mechanics.
"Now that I have Command Seals, it's time to summon Servants." Arlin stroked his black wings, pondering how to draw cards.
Since he was chosen as Master, it wouldn't make sense for him not to have any Servants.
The question is, without any artifacts, is it possible to summon entirely based on affinity?
He recalled his luck with gacha pulls when he was the Chaldea Master in his previous life and felt that it was unreliable.
"Never mind, when Aika comes next time, I'll ask the Sajō family if they have any extra relics."
If all else fails, a fragment of the Knights of the Round Table's dining table can be used as a summoning medium.
He quite liked Xiao Mo.
......
After having breakfast, Yalin opened his shop for business as usual.
The Holy Grail War must be fought, but work must continue; this is what constitutes a healthy life.
As time passed, the weather outside the eaves darkened, and then raindrops began to fall, forming continuous lines.
Yalin leaned back in his rocking chair, closing his eyes to enjoy a moment of coolness. But his mind didn't stop for a second, constantly refining the basic framework of the enhanced magic, Sage Mode.
"As a shop owner, you're completely unqualified. No wonder business is bad." Just as he was about to close his eyes, a clear, girlish voice came from beside him, her tone full of disdain.
"Misaya-kun, it's impolite to call an adult by their first name like that," Yalin said, opening his eyes to look at the girl who had placed her umbrella at the shop entrance.
"Politeness?" Misaya's jewel-like red eyes widened, seemingly shocked that he would say such a thing. Then she said angrily, "You impolite adult, how dare you turn the tables on me."
Whenever she tried to be kinder to this man, he would rudely rub her head, treating her like a child without any manners or respect.
After several attempts, Misaya chose to retaliate in kind, and her attitude towards Arin changed drastically.
polite?
Yalin tilted his head in thought, and after a moment a standard smile appeared on his face as he entered business mode.
"Dear little guest, what do you need? Our store has a wide variety of books at low prices and is the most famous bookstore in Suginami Ward."
Which books would you like to buy? Or would you like me to recommend some?
Faced with Yalin's enthusiastic greetings, Misaya quickly took a step back and stared at him with a look of disgust.
"You...you...you should act normal."
Misaya shouted hurriedly.
Even if he saved her back then, given how despicable this man is, he has absolutely no connection to princes or knights.
Indeed, fairy tales are just fantasies.
“What a troublesome little fellow.” Yalin reverted to his usual laziness. “You won’t even call me uncle.”
He is of the same generation as the head of Linglong Pavilion, so this request is reasonable.
"Don't even think about it in this lifetime." Misaya glared at Yarin, this guy always trying to take advantage of her.
"Tsk, that lovely and polite young lady has disappeared."
Yalin said regretfully.
In the initial period after he saved Misaya, the young lady of the Linglong Pavilion always maintained a ladylike demeanor and displayed aristocratic etiquette whenever she visited.
Even when faced with his unreliability, she restrained herself and endured it with great patience.
