Unless Paradise believes that the pursuer joining the Holy Grail War is information Kisaragi Rin doesn't know!
In other words, the eighth Servant in Intel 2 does not refer to the eighth Class!
Now, let's look at Intel 1 again. Is there an unfair referee in the Holy Grail War?
Yukinoshita Yukino received an A-rank evaluation in Demon Slayer, and now her sequence is B-rank. She also received hidden information from Paradise.
However, compared to Kisaragi Rin's two pieces of information, Yukinoshita Yukino only received Intel 1.
"Is Intel 2 merely a supplement to Intel 1?"
"That makes sense. Without the backing of force, how could a referee ensure the Holy Grail War proceeds unfairly?"
With his hypothesis validated, and after reviewing the relationships once more, Kisaragi Rin exhaled a murky breath and said to the Heroic Spirits, "The additional Heroic Spirits must be in the hands of this unfair referee."
What does this information represent?
An opportunity to delve into the Fate Worldview!
A Fuyuki City where the extraordinary has receded, yet there's a referee controlling Heroic Spirits—doesn't that sound like the big Boss behind all these events?
Kisaragi Rin is determined to achieve an S-rank evaluation in the Fate World.
Suddenly receiving such information put Kisaragi Rin in a good mood. After some thought, he continued to ask, "Esdeath, have you and Ito Makoto encountered anything unusual?"
According to Esdeath, she and Ito Makoto were suddenly attacked by Iskandar.
Kisaragi Rin and Yukinoshita Yukino had not encountered this attack. Before Kisaragi Rin took her, Esdeath was just an irrational Berserker. It's only possible that Ito Makoto did something.
Otherwise, it couldn't be that this referee simply disliked Ito Makoto, could it?
Then this referee would be a bit too unfair.
"Unusual?"
Esdeath thought for a moment. From her manifestation at Ryudoji Temple to activating her Noble Phantasm at Homurahara Academy, she truly had no impression of her former Master.
Finally, Esdeath said uncertainly, "If you're asking about something unusual, I can only think that Ito Makoto's cowardice was truly unusual. Even though my performance at the time was fully capable of defeating Iskandar, he still wanted to kill me to quit the game."
At this point, Esdeath's face was filled with disdain. She became even more satisfied with her Kisaragi Rin, and even touched her Master in front of Medea.
Medea: "…"
After listening to Esdeath, Saber also raised her hand to express her opinion.
Her small face became serious, and she earnestly said, "Perhaps this referee possesses some knightly virtues. Seeing that Ito Makoto truly lacked the demeanor of a Master, he decided to take action himself to make him withdraw early…"
Before Saber could continue to fantasize, Lily couldn't help but retort, "An unfair referee, how could they possibly have knightly virtues?"
"Actually, it's possible. After all, the information only stated 'unfair.' As for how exactly the referee is unfair, we don't know."
Yukinoshita Yukino recalled her experience of being chased by Sugo Nobuyuki on the first day, only to unexpectedly discover a summoning item. A faint smile curved her lips as she agreed with Saber's idea, saying, "Perhaps this referee simply targets players with poor character, which is what caused the unfairness mentioned by Paradise."
"Then this referee should be chasing Hassan and Scáthach now."
Yesterday, Hassan and Scáthach's battle at the arcade killed quite a few ordinary people.
There were too many possibilities for such a thing, so Kisaragi Rin stopped their conjectures.
Rather than letting their imaginations run wild, Kisaragi Rin wanted to find out who that referee was now.
Once he knew the other party's identity, everything would naturally connect.
"In that case, where should we look for that unfair referee now?"
Yukinoshita Yukino yawned, showing no emotional fluctuation, as such matters could generally be safely left to Kisaragi Rin.
In her limited experiences, Yukinoshita Yukino had already realized one thing: Kisaragi Rin had his own intelligence system, and all she needed to do was follow his lead.
"According to the original plan, let's go to Kotomine Church first."
Since it was an unfair referee, of course, they had to check out the Kotomine Church, which frequently blew "black whistles" in the original work.
If it wasn't Kotomine Church, Kisaragi Rin had more guesses in his mind.
For example, the Einzbern Family, or the Tohsaka Family.
Or perhaps the protagonist with the broken leg, Emiya Shirou…
Thinking this, Kisaragi Rin took out a super-sized car from his Workshop, the Hummer H1 he had used in Tokoname City.
The modified Hummer allowed several people to sit together without feeling crowded.
Moreover, Saber and Medusa also possessed Riding Skills, which could maximize the effect of a "mount," whether it was a beast or a modern vehicle.
"I'll drive."
Medusa voluntarily took the driver's seat. As a Rider, her Riding Skill had reached A+ rank.
Yukinoshita Yukino pulled Saber to sit in the front row, leaving the back seats for Kisaragi Rin and the other three Servants. The final result, of course, was Kisaragi Rin holding Lily, with Esdeath and Medea sitting on either side of the Master.
"If any combat occurs later, Lily, remember to get into the equipment first," Kisaragi Rin reminded, pinching Lily's little belly.
Although Lily possessed All Flaws Must Be Healed and could protect others well, her self-preservation ability was quite lacking.
Her small arms and legs meant she could easily be instantly killed if she encountered an enemy.
Since the enemy's information was still unknown, to prevent such a situation, it was better for Lily not to stay outside.
As for the Workshop, there was a delay. If any sudden changes occurred, it would be difficult for Lily to return to the Fate World in time to activate her Noble Phantasm effect.
"No problem, Master. I'll be ready to unleash my Noble Phantasm in the equipment at all times."
Leaning against her Master, Lily softly agreed, showing no signs of opposition. Her adorable behavior was like an angel.
Medea found a passerby nearby, extracted the location of Kotomine Church, and then transmitted it to Medusa.
Receiving the location, Medusa placed her hands on the steering wheel, just about to start the car, when Yukinoshita Yukino, sitting next to her, looked at Medusa's eye patch and couldn't help but ask, "How about Saber drives instead?"
"…Remember to buckle up."
Medusa, who was somewhat engaged in dangerous driving, stiffened slightly, with no intention of giving up the driver's seat. After a reminder, she forcefully stepped on the accelerator.
The entire Hummer, enveloped in magic, began to vibrate and charged straight into the traffic ahead!
"!!!"
"Don't drive so fast!"
