Shirou Emiya is challenging FGO

Chapter 35 Persona (Newbies please read!)

34. Persona
This is the real world.

Because the events unfolding before her eyes were too bizarre, Toosaka Rin could only roughly guess what was happening to Shirou.

The situation should be like this
Just now, the Dragon Demon activated his power, the 'Absolute Demon King', which continuously amplified the 'evil thoughts' deep in the hearts of Shirou and Miss Musashi, and then turned them into inner demons, and then materialized the inner demons into masks, and finally manipulated the masks to control Shirou and Musashi.

This should be the spell that the Dragon Demon is going to use as a 'trial'.

But Miss Musashi defeated her inner demon at the speed of light, and even made her stand 'Kurikara Tensho' evolve into 'Kurikara Tengdou'.

Appearance is just a matter of Ms. Musashi's personal preference. It's not the point, so don't worry about it.

The real change happened to Shirou!

According to Toosaka Rin's observation, the Dragon Demon's plan went smoothly at the beginning, and the evil thoughts in Shirou's heart were unexpectedly strong!
——This fact shocked, confused, and incomprehensible Toosaka Rin.

Evil thoughts? Shirou, who has the constitution of a mushroom man, actually has evil thoughts in his mind?

No matter how you think about it, it’s unreasonable!

Toosaka Rin knew that this was partly her own fault, because she had never considered the possibility that Shirou also had evil thoughts in his heart and would be controlled by the Dragon Demon.

But what happened next was enough to shock everyone present—

It even shattered the common sense of some Shura gods and Buddhas who were secretly watching the Dragon Demon, Shirou, Rin, and Musashi.

The Dragon Demon successfully suppressed Shirou's consciousness and successfully triggered Shirou's inner demon.
What happened next, for example, was this: The Dragon Demon successfully boarded a machine named Shirou, but was stunned to find that he didn't know how to use his control system at all!

Not only that, the evil god, Dragon Demon, was actually kicked out by Shirou's 'Inner Demon (Haku)'!

In Toosaka Rin's common sense understanding:

When Shirou in front of him actually tore off the mask with his bare hands, it meant that the trial plan formulated by the Dragon Demon had essentially failed completely.

The dragon demon was defeated, which meant that the trial had been passed.

Now that the trial has been passed, according to the rules of the Dragon Demon Azi Dahaka, as a reward for clearing the trial, Shirou will gain the power of the Dragon Demon, complete the original demon ascension ceremony, and become a 'Warrior of Darkness'.

Everything should be over. The demon ascension ceremony planned by Toosaka Rin has ended.

That's how it should be.

In front of Tousaka Rin and Musashi:

The dragon bone mask that Shirou tore off with his bare hands took off a layer of skin, leaving Shirou's face instantly disfigured and covered in blood.

The dragon bone mask fell to the ground and then collapsed, turning into countless fragments of pale blue flames.

Toosaka Rin knew that those things were fragments of the Dragon Demon's power - fragments of 'Power·Absolute Demon King' and 'Power·Thousand Magic'.

As the dragon bone mask ritual was destroyed, the fragments of power should have quietly burned in the air, collapsed, and disappeared.

however!
[Kyūshiro (Shirou the Heart Demon) attempts to project the Dragon Demon's spell in order to gain the Dragon Demon's two great powers - 'Absolute Demon King' and 'Thousand Magic']

[The Dragon Demon's attitude towards this is.]

[1. Obstruction]

[2. Because I find it interesting, I don’t obstruct it, but watch it with interest]

[3. Helping because of pleasure]

【1D3=3】

[Not a projection weapon]

[It is not a projection of human beings]

[Instead——projecting other people's spells! ]

[Kyūshiro (Shirou the Heartbreaker) attempts to create the 'Personality Mask of Azi Dahaka'——]

[Basic Difficulty: 100]

[Advanced Difficulty: 300] [If the advanced level is successful, the created 'Azi Dahaka's Personality Mask' will have the power effects of 'Absolute Demon King' and 'Thousand Magic']

[Kyūshiro (Shirou the Heart Demon)'s 'Projection Magic: Curse Projection (Instinct)': 1D100=95 (What the hell?!)]

[Aziz Dahaka's 'Assistance (limited by Bahram, upper limit reduced)': 1D300=294 (Are you so compatible?!)]

[Total: 389＞300]

【Advanced success! 】

Shirou, with his face covered in blood, stretched out his hand and grabbed the flames - and refined them in an instant!
The pale blue flame suddenly shrank, condensed in Shirou's hand, and turned into a mask again!
Toosaka Rin naturally understood what was happening before her eyes.

The answer is. Projection.

Shirou projects the Dragon Demon's spell!

The residue of the two divine powers of the Dragon Demon Azdahaka was used as material and refined into a 'mask' again!
This is tantamount to cutting off a portion of God's power and then plundering it for one's own use!

This is many times more advanced than the 'Demon Ascension Ceremony' originally designed by Toosaka Rin!
Shirou put on the 'personality mask' of the Dragon Demon Azidakaha again.

The blood on his face and the wound healed together, as if he had never been injured in the first place.

Just like the actors performing Nuo opera, they put on masks and become the incarnation of God.

Shirou, who wears the Dragon Demon's personality mask, is now the Dragon Demon!

Moreover, because the materials used to make this mask are the two great powers of the Dragon Demon, Shirou is now equivalent to the incarnation of the Dragon Demon!
This, this, this, this, this—Tōsaka Rin was completely speechless.

Toosaka Rin's original demon-ascension ritual was, at best, intended to steal some of the dragon demon's power.

Shirou actually 'copied (projected)' the Dragon Demon's spell and used it against him!

Toosaka Rin felt her mind was in a mess: "But, but, does this mean that everything is over? The dragon demon has been driven away, so there is no need to fight anymore, right?"

Toosaka Rin felt that her brain was not enough. Her common sense as a magician was shattered.

After all, she is also a magician, and her strong curiosity makes her want to get close to Shirou and study the structure of this "God's spell" that Shirou projected!
——Maybe I can learn it myself?

Toosaka Rin subconsciously took a step forward. The magic of the gods was too attractive to the magician.

But Miss Musashi stopped her.

Miss Musashi didn't understand any magic or mysticism, but her intuition as a martial arts fanatic made her keenly aware that something was wrong.

"Wait, Rin! Something's wrong. It's not over yet!"

In front of Musashi and Toosaka Rin, Shirou actually put the mask back on - again, on his own initiative!
Toosaka Rin was the first to react.

Her curiosity about the magic of the gods could not compare to her concern for Shirou.

Shirou's behavior seemed inexplicable in her perspective, but to Toosaka Rin, it was another conspiracy of the Dragon Demon!
"Musashi!" Toosaka Rin shouted, "Destroy the mask! Destroy the mask!"

After receiving clear instructions from her only magic expert, Miss Musashi no longer hesitated and took action immediately!
Musashi first pretended to draw his sword, then reached for the hilt at his waist - and then pulled out a M1917 Smith & Wesson revolver!
Fire! Six rounds in a row! Each shot went straight to Shirou's face!

What looked like a fake sword-drawing move was actually a gunshot - but Musashi had used this tactic once before.

The same trick may not work twice.

So - this time Musashi's shooting was also a feint!
"Kurigara!"

The real attack was the evolved stand summoned by Miss Musashi. Kurikara, who looked like a little girl, seemed cute and harmless, but with just a gesture of pointing a finger at Shirou, she summoned a giant demon-subduing Buddha sword that was bigger than herself!

Flying sword! Destroy demons!
However, Shirou, who put on his mask again, spoke a name in the calm and indifferent voice that was very familiar to both Tōsaka Rin and Musashi, and had been engraved into the deepest part of their memories after spending a month together.
"——Ai·Dahāka"

It is so pure white that it even makes people feel a certain "holiness", which reminds people of the body of the glorious angel Lucifer before he fell into the evil dragon Satan.

Wearing a scarlet robe, the shadow of a three-headed dragon appeared behind Shirou, just like Miss Musashi controlling Kurikara - the shadow of the dragon demon, blocking all attacks coming towards Shirou!
The bullets and the Buddha sword all stopped in mid-air and turned into dust!!!
