Pendragon's Infinity Gauntlet

Page 20

After all, in Rin's eyes, Pendragon is still a boy, and apart from his formal suit being a bit out of place in the current art style, there's nothing wrong with him.

"Master, another plate, please!"

With a slight upturn of her lips, Rin Tohsaka happily helped Pendragon get more rice from the kitchen.

……

"One more plate, please!"

...Rin Tohsaka was a little flustered.

"Come again!"

...Rin Tohsaka was speechless.

"I want more!"

……

Rin Tohsaka: Flip the table!

"You've already eaten my lunchbox for tomorrow, isn't that enough?!"

Pendragon shook his head, saying without a trace of guilt, "I'm just not hungry anymore."

"..."

I'll take him to buffets next time.

"There's definitely no more food for tonight; we've used up all the ingredients."

"Oh……"

Pendragon licked the plate in disappointment; it was as clean as if it had never been used, so clean that it reflected one's image.

"Remember to wash the dishes and clean the living room. Since you made the mess, you have to clean it up."

"My mom never lets me wash the dishes or sweep the floor..."

Pendragon was naturally too lazy to do such menial tasks, and she immediately expressed her objection to Rin Tohsaka's assignment.

but.

The girl's casual "lunch" instantly suppressed all his dissatisfaction and complaints, making him like a king ruling the universe, and causing Pendragon to obediently accept the job.

"What does this guy think Servants are?!"

Although there were only two bowls, Pendragon, experiencing this kind of housework for the first time, was still quite dissatisfied.

"A familiar, huh? Although its attitude is quite rude, I'll make do with it for now."

Rin Tohsaka waved her hand and left.

Pendragon heard Rin go upstairs and his ahoge (cowlick) twitched sensitively.

A moment later, the clear sound of a door closing and the gentle patter of water could be heard, evoking a sense of wonder and endless idyllic beauty.

"Humph."

Do you really think I, the mighty King of the Universe, would obediently wash the dishes? You're overthinking it, Miss.

Pendragon's nostrils twitched slightly as he easily discerned the aroma of Mapo Tofu from the complex smells of the kitchen!

Although she said she had finished eating, Rin Tohsaka secretly kept a bento box for herself. She was cautious, meticulous, and methodical, using a feint to her advantage while secretly making a move...

As expected of Shichen's daughter!

Removing the outer packaging, Pendragon, filled with guilt, ate Rin Tohsaka's lunch for tomorrow.

The lunchboxes containing the food were also licked clean and then casually placed in the kitchen.

The living room upstairs.

Thinking of the roof he had trampled and destroyed, Pendragon felt a headache coming on.

She's not Red A, so she's really not good at things like sweeping floors or fixing roofs.

But thinking about tomorrow's lunch, Pendragon gritted his teeth and decided to use his best skills to satisfy his long-term meal ticket.

With a snap of his fingers, he turned back time on the roof to the moment before he had trampled it to pieces.

The rubble that had fallen everywhere filled the holes in the roof, the scattered books flew back to the bookshelves, the overturned sofa was put back in its place and righted, and not a speck of dust fell. Everything in the living room was restored.

The ability to use a single gemstone can be achieved without black bean paste, but the magic consumption will be greater.

When Pendragon left the room, he saw the cat but ignored it.

Following the sound of Rin Tohsaka's heartbeat, I found her room... asleep?

My breathing became even, my heartbeat slowed and steady, and I slept soundly.

Pendragon would wash the dishes and eat downstairs for no more than twenty minutes, so the fact that she could sleep so soundly after washing up shows that she was really tired.

"Sleeping with your head covered is not a good habit."

Pendragon pulled Rin Tohsaka's head out of the thick blanket, covered her shoulders again, took a hot bath in the bathroom, and comfortably changed into her pajamas.

P.S.: What will happen next?

Chapter Thirty-Six: Do you need to replenish your mana?

Chapter 36

While the cold air won't cause any real discomfort, it's obviously more comfortable to stay in a warm place in this kind of weather, and a kotatsu is a great thing.

Unfortunately, this mansion doesn't have one, but it does have a warm bed—

Pendragon carried the cat into Rin Tohsaka's bedroom, ignoring its chuunibyou (delusional) pronouncements such as "the only nemesis is darkness."

She lifted a corner of the plain-colored quilt, and the sudden chill made the girl curl up immediately.

Pendragon seized the opportunity to slip into the warm bed, taking up the spot warmed by the beautiful girl's body heat, and pushed Rin Tohsaka towards the cooler area.

"..."

The sleeping girl frowned, but still showed no signs of waking up.

Well, comfortable.

Pendragon could smell a faint fragrance with each breath, seemingly coming from Rin Tohsaka, or perhaps from the scent of the bedding itself; in any case, it smelled wonderful.

"Her hair smells good too."

Pendragon smelled Rin's black hair, then smelled his own silver hair, and it seemed like his own didn't smell as good.

Pshaw, she definitely wore perfume.

Pendragon turned to his side and lay back to back with Rin, gradually falling asleep.

-

The alarm clock rang once during that time, waking Pendragon, and then both of its ears disappeared.

With her eyes closed, Pendragon continued with something that made her feel comfortable, and went back to sleep.

Finally, she regained consciousness under the torment of hunger.

Rin Tohsaka was still sleeping soundly, her long eyelashes like gorgeous feather fans spread over her eyes, so beautiful they were almost intoxicating.

The even breath sprayed directly onto Pendragon's face, bringing not only warm heat and a ticklish sensation to his hair, but also an elegant fragrance similar to orchids.

Pendragon remained silent for a moment, seemingly unwilling to break the beautiful tranquility.

Then, she removed Rin Tohsaka's hands from her waist, silently slipped out of bed, and her pajamas transformed back into a suit under the power of magic.

"Ok?"

While fast asleep, Rin Tohsaka felt someone calling her from beside her.

"Hey! Hey! Wake up! I'm hungry! The sun's already high in the sky!"

"Stop making so much noise! ​​Stop it!"

Rin Tohsaka rolled over, turned towards Pendragon, and covered her head with the blanket.

"I'm hungry! Get up and cook!"

Pendragon was yelling almost without stopping, while reaching out to grab Rin Tohsaka's shoulders through the thick quilt and shaking her incessantly.

"Honestly... I was busy until really late last night, let me get some more sleep..."

Rin's voice sounded listless in the morning as she spoke to Pendragon in a languid tone, trying to stay in her comfortable bed a little longer.

"There are still bento boxes in the kitchen, please, please let me go..."

"That was eaten last night, get up! Hey!!"

Pendragon continued to shake her shoulders.

"Ugh! What a heartless guy!"

Of course, it was impossible to sleep well while being shaken. Rin Tohsaka gave a soft, self-deprecating roar and complained in a dissatisfied tone.

"Hurry up! I'm starving!"

As Rin Tohsaka got out of bed, Pendragon's ahoge (antenna-like hair sticking up) began to deform.

Rin Tohsaka's hair looked a little messy after a good night's sleep, but it gave her a unique charm when combined with her sleepy expression with her eyes half-closed.

"Ugh."

Rin Tohsaka let out a long sigh, whether from worry or helplessness, and forced herself to look at Pendragon, whose eyes were filled with expectation.

Seeing such stunning beauty up close was quite invigorating; Rin Tohsaka's gaze passed over her and landed on the alarm clock she had set back—

9:15.

For some office workers, this is just a normal wake-up time, but for high school students who are about to save the world, it's not just a matter of being late.

Skipping class.

"well--!"

Why did you suddenly sigh again?

"No."

Rin Tohsaka didn't have the energy to argue with Pendragon like she did last night. Seeing that she only had two Command Seals left on the back of her hand, she decided to give up entirely.

"Fine, I'll skip class today."

After dozing off for a while with her eyes closed, Rin Tohsaka, thinking about the gluttonous Assassin she still had to cook for, instinctively covered her head with her hands, her ten fingers disappearing into her smooth, black hair.

"Just thinking about it gives me a headache."

"Hungry!"

Pendragon stared intently at Rin Tohsaka, whose eyes were narrowed.

"So sleepy, my body feels so heavy... Did summoning consume too much magic power?"

"Do you need to replenish your mana?"

Pendragon's face moved quickly closer, almost touching the girl's nose.

Rin Tohsaka seemed to see a light shining in his eyes, as he stared intently at her.

In an instant, for some reason, the idea that the other party was actually a burly man with unkempt feet suddenly came to mind.

"Oh no! Absolutely not! Absolutely not!"

With unwavering resolve, Miss Rin pushed Pendragon away by the shoulder, then quickly clapped her hands as if afraid of being tainted by his lewd aura.

"I'm starving! If there's no good food soon, I'm going to rebel!"

Pendragon snorted and stared intently at Rin Tohsaka with a threatening look.

"Give me fifteen minutes to wash up, then I'll take you out to eat."

Miss Rin yawned and decided to splurge today.

It will take about a day for the magic power to recover naturally, which is a good time to familiarize this servant with the environment of this era.

With this plan in mind, Rin Tohsaka passed through the living room on her way to the bathroom—

This is the one that Pendragon destroyed last night.
