Fate/type Redline[]
Yan is among those pursuing Lanlan Fang to stop her from stealing a magical ore to be delivered to a magus of the German Third Reich. He has the most success, being able to put on her on the defensive using his sword skills and thus pinning her in place and unable to cast her talismans. However, she calls out for Lancer, who quickly defeats everyone, leaving only Yan standing. He only has enough time to recognize Lancer as Divine Spear Li before he too is defeated.[1]
Abilities[]
He is an extraordinarily proficient swordsman and a practitioner of kung fu.[1]

Lanlan had been giving the mafia a hard time, and Yan had been called to guard them. However he was no match for Lancer. He also seemed to know who Lancer was in his past life.「独剣」の楊【人名】
