After all, Lin Yun had already known there was a high chance Servants from the Fifth Holy Grail War would appear this time.
And among the Servants from the Fifth Holy Grail War, aside from that rule-breaking Gilgamesh...
The one most worth being wary of was Heracles.
For that reason, since Lin Yun was already very familiar with Heracles, he began trying to analyze him.
And the conclusion he eventually reached was this.
According to the usual explanation, the Twelve Labors meant that after being killed by a certain type of attack, Heracles gained resistance to it.
But after seeing Excalibur take seven of his lives at once...
Lin Yun came to a possible conclusion.
That was to interpret it in conjunction with the Twelve Labors' ability to nullify B-Rank Attacks and below.
In other words, the so-called resistance was just that: resistance. It didn't literally mean complete nullification.
Simply put, if a normal attack above B-Rank did 100 damage, then this resistance might halve the damage outright, or reduce it by a set amount, say 50.
That would leave 50 damage, which would fall within the range of a so-called B-Rank Attack.
And then it would be nullified outright.
As for Excalibur, if its damage was roughly 200, then even if that damage were halved by this resistance, leaving 100, it would still far exceed the B-Rank Attack threshold. It couldn't be nullified, so it would still deal all the damage it was supposed to.
Of course, given the circumstances at the time, it was reasonable to assume Excalibur had erupted inside Heracles's body, whether because of the blow itself or a failed Dexterity save, for instance.
In that case, it made sense that it could take seven lives at once.
Of course, based on Lin Yun's analysis, there
