Shirou Emiya is challenging FGO

Chapter 34: Dice Girl is Beating Up the Dragon Demon (Newbies please collect! Please recommend!)

33. Dice girl's flat attack combo with cleavage and violent beating of the polisher

The 'dragon bone mask' that seemed to grow out of the flesh on her face also began to appear on Miss Musashi's face!
This is——magic attack!
[Can Rin Toosaka see through the 'principle' of the 'ritual' performed by the Dragon Demon? If she succeeds, the difficulty of counterattack will be greatly reduced.]

[Difficulty: 80]

[Tousaka Rin's 'Magic Knowledge': 1D100=85 (Stable!)]

This time, Toosaka Rin was not harassed by the Dragon Demon's words and spirit attacks, but clearly saw the whole process of the Dragon Demon's spell - although Toosaka Rin didn't know why the Dragon Demon didn't use this trick on her.

Toosaka Rin knew that Azi Dahaka, the evil god in Zoroastrian mythology, possessed two powers: the "Absolute Demon King" and the "Thousand Magical Arts".

He used his first power to trigger and infinitely magnify the 'evil thoughts' hidden in the victim's heart - even the victim himself might not be aware of them.

Then, he used his second power, 'Thousand Magic', to transform the victim's own 'evil thoughts' that were triggered into a 'mask'.

Why a mask?
The answer is: mask culture
In almost all civilizations around the world, branches of this kind of "shaman culture" were born in the ancient tribal period and have survived to this day, such as the "Nuo mask" in the East.

When people perform religious sacrificial ceremonies, they create masks corresponding to a certain god or an ancient sage, and put on the masks to play the role of the "god".

This is also seen as a form of 'spirit possession' or 'spokesperson for the spirit'.

Others achieve the result of communicating with gods by talking to people wearing masks.

By performing sacrifices for the masked person, it is ensured that the sacrifice is performed under the witness of God.

A mask is not just a mask itself, but also a symbol of identity.

Whoever's mask you wear, that's who you are.

This was originally a technique used by humans to 'play the role of gods' or 'borrow the identity (power) of gods'.

But it was used by the Dragon Demon in reverse! He forced the opponent to wear a mask and then forcibly gained control!
And because the mask is made of the evil thoughts in the target's heart, it can be said to be the embodiment of the "devil in the heart"!
As we all know, the Type-Moon world has an unchanging underlying source code level setting, which is called 'Special Attack is greater than the sky, restraining the Japanese gods'.

The so-called inner demon of a certain existence can be said to be his own nemesis!
The ability that Azdahaka possesses is close to the power of 'Special Attack of All Things'!

In addition, only humans can kill the dragon demon, and the only one who can truly restrain him is perhaps someone like the Enlightened One (Shakyamuni).

Although Toosaka Rin didn't know why she was not chosen by the Dragon Demon as the target of the "Inner Demon Attack".

(But since we know the principle is 'mask culture', as long as we start here, using methods such as 'destroying the mask', 'seeing the real name', and 'debate refutation by seeing through the disguise', we should be able to effectively deal with this technique of the Dragon Demon!)
Because Miss Musashi was the closest to her, and her face had not yet been completely covered by the mask, Toosaka Rin planned to try to help her break free from the control of the mask first.

but.

The change happened again.

However, this time it’s a good change!

[Difficulty: 90]

[Musashi's 'heart (will)': 1D100=97 (?)]

The mask on Miyamoto Musashi's face suddenly shattered!!!

Toosaka Rin didn't even have time to do anything!
Toosaka Rin had no idea what Miss Musashi had experienced in her spiritual world in such a short period of time. But the result was that the mask was broken!

Although the Dragon Demon's mask is quite different from the real 'Inner Demon', Miss Musashi's swift and violent destruction of her own 'Inner Demon (mask)' is still shocking!
Even the Buddhas who were watching this trial would be amazed.

Miss Musashi herself did not gain any kind of leap in strength as a result, but changes still occurred.

Miss Musashi's stand -- that is, the embodiment of Miss Musashi's strong spirit, 'Kurikara', has changed.

The origin of this stand power was also a surprise to Miss Musashi.

Because of some childhood experiences, Miss Musashi once longed for the "help of gods and Buddhas". When Miss Musashi was a child, her worldview was not formed, so the power of the third eye was at its strongest.

Gods and Buddhas did not really appear like the "deus ex machina" in ancient Greek dramas and help Musashi overcome the difficulties of his childhood.

Instead, under the effect of the power of the divine eye, Musashi's strong belief transformed into a substitute that looked like the statue of Kurikara.

As Musashi grew up, Miss Musashi's worldview began to mature, the power of the Heavenly Eye gradually declined, and gradually Miss Musashi began to "not believe in any Asura gods or Buddhas" and "only believe in the sword in her own hand."

Therefore, it became difficult for Miss Musashi to control the Kurikara Stand.

Miss Musashi cannot distract herself from controlling her Stand to attack while swinging her sword!
But at this moment——

Toosaka Rin didn't know what Musashi had just experienced in his own inner demon fantasy!
At this moment, she was shouting: "I understand!
Buddha is not in the temple, Buddha is in the heart!"

Then the mask shattered.

The image of the substitute has also changed. It is no longer the original rigid temple sculpture of Acala: a four-armed Acalanatha, holding a sword, stepping on the green holy fire, and followed by a black dragon breathing red flames.

After all, Musashi had no idea what Kurikara looked like; he was just imagining things based on the sculptures in the temple.

But at this moment, she has broken free from the shackles of the 'idol' in her heart!

The stand-in has also evolved!

[Ms. Musashi, you can now let your Stand join the battle while you fight (the main body will not be negatively affected when the Stand fights)]

As the "idol" in her heart was destroyed, the image of Kurikara in Miss Musashi's mind also changed, from the original giant to
She turned into a white-haired little girl wearing a miniskirt, off-shoulder shrine maiden costume, with green holy flames under her bare feet, and a huge Buddhist sword and a black dragon burning with red flames following her!
This is what is called "appearance is determined by the mind"!

Toosaka Rin breathed a sigh of relief: Although Miss Musashi herself was not happy about it, at least in this situation, she would not be forced to fight two people alone.

So how's Shirou doing?
[Difficulty: 90]

[Shirou's 'Heart (Imitation)': 1D100=3 (?)]

The situation is completely different from that of Ms. Musashi, and it seems very bad.

[Shirou's physical movements are temporarily under the control of the Dragon Demon]

[Additional judgment: How strong is the control of the Dragon Demon over Shirou's body? ]

[The lower the control, the more resistance the dragon demon will encounter when it controls Shirou's body to fight.]

[The Dragon Demon's 'control' over Shirou: 1D100=4 (???)] Toosaka Rin: "?"

Musashi: “?”

Jill: "?"

Smoke mirror: “?”

Guanyin: “?”

Wukong: “?”

Bodhi: “?”

Dragon Demon: “?”

In the real world, under the gaze of countless people, Shirou did not let the dragon demon control his body and then attack Toosaka Rin, but -

With trembling hands, he grabbed the dragon bone mask on his head.

——Then it was torn off just like that!

Bloody!

And in Shirou Emiya's spiritual world.

The dragon demon's sharp claws that were about to pierce Shirou's chest were stopped by a single hand.

A figure appeared in front of Shirou, blocking Shirou and the Dragon Demon.

He looked exactly like Shirou, except that his skin was pale, the whites of his eyes were as black as ink, but his pupils and irises shone like red gold.

Who is he? Why does he look exactly like Shirou? Why did he suddenly appear here?
Shirou himself might not have noticed it because his attention was focused on the Dragon Demon, but the Dragon Demon saw it clearly.

The 'thing' before his eyes was something that was born from the dark turbid current that had previously flowed out of the hole in Shirou's chest - the 'evil thoughts (demons)' in Shirou's heart!
Because it emerged from the 'void' in Shirou's mind, and because of its ominous pale skin color, let's call it 'Void White'.

"It's noisy."

The tone of Kyobaku's speech was different from that of Shirou, who was always calm and steady; it was full of domineering and aggressiveness.

"As the old saying goes: The heart and the monkey fight. The test of 'I' must naturally be done by 'Laozi (I)'.
—Who are you?”

He stopped the dragon demon with one hand and just pinched it.

The projection of the dragon demon in Shirou's spiritual world was crushed just like that!

In the basement of Fuyuki Church, Kotomine Kirei was forcibly kicked out of the connection and interference with Shirou's spiritual world, and bleeding from all seven orifices!

God. Bleeding! Injured!
But this time, Gil did not rush to the scene to laugh at it, because he was also in a daze!
Jill couldn't believe it, but his clairvoyance and omniscience were all unable to investigate the other party. All the other party's information seemed to be blocked by some kind of power: "What is that thing? Is it a six-eared macaque?"

Is the trial over?
No, it didn't, it was 'relayed'.

The Dragon Demon could clearly feel that part of his power was being "dug away" by force!

Is this the power of Sun Wukong? Or the six-eared macaque? Or something else? The dragon demon was still confused.

Then the Dragon Demon immediately realized a very serious problem: When I was conducting trials (assigning homework), I would still show mercy to a certain extent and give the trials that were most suitable for the children, but what about this guy?
[Faced with the change that the trial was completely out of his control, the Dragon Demon Aziz Dahaka]

[Current mood: 1D100=91 (You are the tax-evading priest)]

He was happy again!

"Good! Good! Good!"

Some of his strength was forcibly taken away, but instead of getting angry, he laughed, and was very happy!

"Since ancient times, the trials that can produce the brave men who can slay the devil should be this difficult!"

In Shirou's spiritual world.

After destroying the dragon demon's projection, the hollow white that appeared through the dragon demon's "power, absolute demon king" turned around and looked at the vigilant Shirou.

Xu Bai just stretched out his hand towards the void and a samurai sword appeared in his hand.

Shirou was very familiar with that sword. It was one of the two equipment that Shirou got from Gilgamesh, in addition to the [Kokarasuma] given to Toosaka Rin, the other was the [Unnamed] sword.

However, Xu Bai did not follow the correct sword-holding posture, but instead tied a chain around Wuming's sword handle.

Xu Bai just grabbed the chain and swung the nameless knife like a meteor hammer, spinning it.

Kyobaku stared at Shirou, staring at 'himself'.

"The eyes see joy, the ears hear anger, the nose smells love, the tongue tastes thought, the body is worried, the opinions are not, it's too early to tell you this now."

The corners of his mouth curved into a happy arc, and the speed of the chain in his hand was getting faster and faster, with full aggression, rushing straight towards Shirou, obviously not a good person!
"Hey! Shirou, I have a question for you--

You feel

What is the difference between a [King] and a [Mount]? "

Shirou was silent.

Then, as a simple and honest man, Shirou honestly expressed his thoughts at the moment:
"What are you talking about?"

Shirou really didn't understand.

"——I think so!"

The blade in Xu Bai's hand flew out, and he used it as a throwing weapon and threw it directly towards Shirou's face!
