There's a Little Clique

That person was Luvia.

Hearing this voice, Rin Tohsaka's already displeased mood naturally worsened.

"It's none of your business!"

She jumped up and shouted, "Why did you follow me here? Isn't this my house?"

"Heh, don't flatter yourself, Rin Tohsaka. I didn't come here for you."

Upon hearing this Luvia took a sip of the cup of black tea that Rovey had just brewed, and then showed an expression of enjoyment, "I came here because I saw Mr. Rovey, and as expected of Mr. Rovey's black tea, it's really delicious."

She said this, making no attempt to hide her admiration for Rovey.

Rovey was taken aback by this.

The reason was simple: the black tea they were drinking was actually instant black tea that he had bought from the supermarket.

Seeing the noble lady enjoying her drink so much, he was momentarily speechless.

"Huh? You still recognize this guy?"

Upon hearing Luvia's words, Rin Tohsaka's expression also turned strange.

"This guy...?"

Hearing this Luvia frowned, then said coldly, "Rin Tohsaka, although I've known for a long time that your character is questionable, please use the most basic respectful form of address for Mr. Rovey, understand? You have no idea how powerful he is. I really don't understand why Professor Aozaki and Mr. Rovey are both around you."

"Ha?"

Upon hearing her words, Rin Tohsaka was momentarily at a loss for words.

She then looked at Rovey with a questioning gaze.

To this, Rovey could only sigh helplessly, then looked at the beautiful young woman who, noticing his gaze, immediately sat up straight and became dignified.

Even he hadn't expected that after so long, Luvia would actually remember him.

Chapter 363 There is a small group

There's a saying that goes something like that.

People love to watch excitement, especially when it comes to things they've never seen before.

The most famous of these is, of course, fighting, especially fights between beautiful women.

Although Rin Tohsaka's personality is somewhat inhuman, her appearance is undeniably that of a top-tier beauty; otherwise, she wouldn't have been chosen by Ishtar. Therefore, there is no doubt that she is a genuine beauty.

Similarly, Luvia, born into nobility, with excellent upbringing and impeccable maintenance, is also a beauty. She not only inherits the boldness and nobility of the Northern Europe style, but her unique strong woman temperament, which is completely different from Rin Tohsaka's, also highlights her distinct charm.

However, even though both of them possess the very basic quality of being beautiful, their encounter is like an asteroid hitting the Earth, triggering an unimaginable and enormous reaction, turning spectators into part of the spectacle.

Both the arena last night and the now-chaotic Tohsaka Family living room are in the same state.

"You bastard, let me go right now! I'm going to teach this savage female gorilla a lesson today!!"

At this moment, Rin Tohsaka, whose limbs were tightly bound by the Chains of Heaven, still gritted her teeth and stared at Luvia, let out an angry roar.

Luvia, sitting opposite her, merely rolled her eyes, took a deep breath, and then ignored Rin Tohsaka, returning to her seat to continue enjoying her tea. She even felt that speaking to Rin Tohsaka again would be a sign of her own low character and an embarrassment in front of Rovey.

"???"

Seeing this, Rin Tohsaka was hanging up like a piece of cured meat, couldn't hold back any longer. She kept asking Rovey her questions:

"Hey! This isn't fair! Why did you only tie me up? Where's her? She was with me just now!!"

"... Who told you to keep going?"

Upon hearing this, Rovey Weili ignored her completely, and simply snapped his fingers to make the Chains of Heaven bind her body even tighter, teaching Rin Tohsaka a lesson.

Although she was right, because of their arch-rival relationship, Luvia and Rin Tohsaka had just fought again in the living room, smashing up all the remaining furniture in the Tohsaka Family. They only stopped because Rovey couldn't stand it anymore and scolded them.

As for why, even though both of them fought, Rovey only punished Rin Tohsaka, the reason is quite simple.

That's because this guy clearly heard me tell him to stop but refused to, and ignored my warnings multiple times.

Although Luvia was still angry after hearing her own words, she quickly suppressed her anger and chose to stop. Only Rin Tohsaka, despite being warned two or three more times, was determined to avenge her lost money and furniture and continued to attack.

Therefore, Rovey naturally wouldn't give such a disobedient student a friendly look, and staying on the ceiling for a while was just a way to calm down.

"Excuse my bluntness, Mr. Rovey, but I don't understand why someone like you would accompany such an rude and disrespectful person as Rin Tohsaka in her nonsense."

After things calmed down a bit, Luvia looked at the strange pair in front of her and couldn't help but ask them a question.

This problem isn't just a current one.

She had never understood what was going on before.

Even though she and Rin Tohsaka applied to join Aozaki Touko's group together, Luvia believed that in terms of talent, she was not much worse than Rin Tohsaka; in terms of family background, she was far superior; and in terms of personality and upbringing, she was also more outstanding. Yet, to this day, Luvia still couldn't understand why Aozaki Touko chose her.

Of course, if it were just a matter of skill, she wouldn't be so petty as to keep picking on Rin Tohsaka. Losing is losing, and she has the self-respect to accept her defeat. However, Rin Tohsaka's actions are unacceptable to her.

Even after becoming a disciple of Aozaki Touko, instead of learning magic diligently, she spent her days idly. Even when attending classes in the Department of Modern Magecraft, she acted as if nothing was wrong, showing no sign of any passion for magic.

And recalling the absurd things she had done at the Clock Tower, Luvia truly couldn't accept that someone like that had beaten her, which is why she kept trying to teach Rin Tohsaka a lesson and settle the score once again.

But the truth is...

Seeing the absurd things Rin Tohsaka is doing now, Luvia is even more indignant.

Furthermore, Luvia it even harder to accept that not only Aozaki Touko, but also Rovey, one of the highest-ranking Magus in London, or even the world's best, was by Rin Tohsaka's side.

She couldn't understand why Rin Tohsaka, such a fool, could be loved by these outstanding and important people.

After hearing her question, before Rin Tohsaka, who was hanging there, could utter a mocking or smug sound, Rovey gave an explanation.

First, he wants to emphasize this.

I am definitely not in a master-disciple relationship with Rin Tohsaka.

This guy could make him lose face in the education sector.

The reason he was with Rin Tohsaka was simply because he happened to come to Fuyuki City, where he was waiting for some people and taking care of some things. However, he didn't have a good place to stay, so he stayed at her house Rin Tohsaka. He would never take the blame for all the stupid things Rin Tohsaka did.

When she heard her doubts about why Rin Tohsaka was able to defeat her, Rovey gave her an answer.

Indeed, if we only consider aptitude, Rin Tohsaka is stronger than Luvia, but not by much. This is because Luvia is also a top-tier talent nurtured by a prestigious Magecraft family, and the resources she received from a young age have allowed her to develop a level far exceeding her natural limits. This is not enough to determine the winner.

After much thought, Rovey quickly came up with the real answer.

"It's actually very simple, it's because..."

Finally, under Luvia's expectant gaze, he revealed the truth.

"Because?"

"Because, a gift was given..."

Luvia: "Huh?"

Rin Tohsaka: "Huh?"

Upon hearing this answer, both of them looked utterly incredulous.

Seeing their performance, Rovey shrugged helplessly. Although it sounded absurd, that was the truth.

Luvia was then astonished, wondering what the Tohsaka Family had given that they could have given more than she had.

The answer to this is extremely simple.

The answer is --

[All information about the Holy Grail War]

Yes, everything about the Holy Grail War.

After all, this is the only thing the Tohsaka Family that can surpass the Luvia family, and it's also exactly what Aozaki Touko needs most, and what she can currently offer.

Otherwise, given Aozaki Touko's lazy nature, she would never have done something as troublesome as taking on apprentices. Since she did take on apprentices, it means that someone gave her conditions that she couldn't refuse. Considering what the Tohsaka Family had, and the fact that she soon created the Holy Grail War, it's not hard to deduce everything.

Tokiomi Tohsaka used everything related to the Holy Grail War to pull strings, which enabled Rin Tohsaka to successfully become his apprentice.

Luvia was taken aback by the answer.

At that moment, the doubts and the heavy weight of suspicion in her heart finally lifted.

"Hahaha, so that's how it is... I understand now, I finally understand... Is this really the truth?"

Immediately afterwards, Luvia couldn't help but laugh as well.

All the suffering I've endured over the years, and all the lingering resentment I've felt about the past, have finally been resolved.

Rin Tohsaka is indeed not stronger than me.

She is no less than that shameful guy; her failure back then was only due to that factor.

As she laughed, she couldn't help but look at Rin Tohsaka with a provocative gaze.

At this moment, Rin Tohsaka also had mixed feelings after receiving this answer. However, compared to Luvia's acceptance and relief, her situation was clearly one of denial and greater difficulty in accepting it.

"How could that be? Don't talk nonsense! I'm clearly the better one!"

She couldn't help but scream.

"Excellent? Does that refer to your current sorry state? Or the mess your house is in?"

Luvia raised an eyebrow, then teased, "And I've already investigated and found out that the Tohsaka Family went bankrupt. I guess your current actions are also to make some money, right?"

"No, no, that's not it..."

Having been guessed by Luvia, Rin Tohsaka turned her head away somewhat guiltily, saying, "The Tohsaka Family hasn't gone bankrupt!"

"Not bankrupt? That's good. Don't forget you still owe me a lot of money, Rin Tohsaka."

In high spirits, Luvia continued to toy with Rin Tohsaka, who was now questioning her existence.

"Owe money?"

Upon hearing the word "owe money, "Rin Tohsaka couldn't help but question, "When did I owe you money? Don't make things up!"

"I knew you wouldn't admit it..."

Seeing this, Luvia didn't argue. She simply reached into her expensive handbag and slowly pulled out a stack of bills, which clearly showed the compensation the two of them would have to pay that night.

Because of Rin Tohsaka and Luvia's reckless behavior, too many people were injured.

Not only that, but there are also issues to be addressed, such as compensation for the building and the mysterious leak. This is a huge sum of money that should ideally be shared by both of them. Now that Luvia has settled everything on her own, it means that Rin Tohsaka owes her a large sum of money.

Upon realizing this, Rin Tohsaka's expression suddenly turned even more grim, and she became completely speechless.

The atmosphere eased somewhat when Rovey snapped his fingers, causing a huge pile of banknotes to fall from the vault.

"So much money!"

Rin Tohsaka's eyes lit up.

Luvia frowned. "Mr. Rovey, what's wrong...?"

She didn't want Rovey to have to clean up Rin Tohsaka's mess because of her.

"Don't misunderstand, this isn't my money. It originally belonged to Rin Tohsaka."

Seeing her hesitation, Rovey offered an explanation.

"My money?!"

Rin Tohsaka looked puzzled upon hearing this.

Didn't she remember betting all her money on winning? Where would she find the money?

And this sum of tens of millions, which is clearly not something I own, is entirely out of the question. What's going on?

"Stop looking, this is indeed your money."

"Huh? Where would I get the money?"

Rin Tohsaka inquired.

"It's from gambling."

Rovey explained, "Because I bet a million on Luvia to win, I just made a killing, almost winning everything in one go."

"What?!!"

Upon hearing Rin Tohsaka's eyes widened, and her bound body began to sway in mid-air. Her eyes were filled with anger and confusion as she roared and questioned him.

Why did you bet on her to win?!

"Need you even think about it? Of course I'm stronger!"
