Shirou Emiya is challenging FGO

Chapter 89: The Strongest Emiya in Modern Times vs. The Strongest Emiya in History (1! Please give me a monthly ticket! Please subscribe automatically!)
87. I fight myself? You are the challenger!
After separating from Roman, Mash, Fujimaru, and Orita, Ritsuka returned to Chaldea's central control room - the same place where Chaldea's director Olga Marie had held a mobilization meeting.

Roman's judgment was not wrong.

Although the control room was also one of the centers of the Chaldea explosion - it was not a single explosion, but more than a hundred explosions occurred throughout the base, and the explosion itself also triggered subsequent chain explosions.

But this is the core area of Chaldea after all, and it is built very solidly. Other areas of Chaldea have begun to frequently disintegrate (and the situation is getting worse), but Ritsuka was safe all the way here.

The only danger we might encounter is the shaking of the ground - but this is not an earthquake.

It is because Chaldea is so huge that it is hard to imagine how much financial resources and high-tech it would take to hollow out a part of the mountain in the deepest part of Antarctica and then build a fortress-like base.

The disintegration of such a huge base is no different from a landslide in the physical sense.

Although a huge explosion occurred in the center of the control room not long ago.

But this is indeed the safest place in Chaldea at this moment - if the power plant is not out of power.

(.No, even if the power goes out, I'm afraid this will be the place that can last the longest)

Lixiang returned to the door of the previous meeting room, looked at the sea of fire inside, and swallowed with some difficulty.

Because of a problem with the power plant, the entire Chaldea is cooling down rapidly, but after arriving here, Ritsuka finds the heat unbearable - what on earth was ignited by the explosion?

The conference room, which had gathered more than two hundred young boys and girls and other staff not long ago, was now a scene like purgatory.

However, because they were facing the high temperature caused by the explosion at extremely close range, most people ended up being directly vaporized. It didn't look like there would be any survivors.

If there are any survivors, it would probably be a miracle, right?
(I didn’t see any severed limbs, nor did I even smell the burnt stench of a roasted corpse)

Li Xiang was stunned for a moment.

Why did she subconsciously think like this? Such confusion flashed through her mind for a moment.

Just for a moment.

Because the next moment, an incredible miracle really happened.

"woo"

A human voice, a distressed female voice, came from inside the control room where there should be no survivors.

It was very faint, but Fujimaru Ritsuka was sure he heard it.

And Fujimaru Ritsuka could be sure that this was definitely not his illusion.

Four years ago, Fujimaru Ritsuka experienced something incredible. Although she continued to live the life of an ordinary girl for four years after that, Fujimaru Ritsuka's life - and her body - had indeed changed.

After experiencing that 'nightmare', Ritsuka can no longer 'change the appearance of his body at will' as he did then - his brother Fujimaru and classmate Orita, two otakus who have read too many fantasy stories, believe that this is actually because Ritsuka himself is strongly resisting change.

Ritsuka couldn't give an answer to this question: because she couldn't change.

But apart from that, there are still some "not too obvious abnormalities" appearing on Ritsuka.

For example, when Ritsuka is injured, she can speed up the recovery of the wound by focusing her attention on it.

For example, when she concentrates, she can manipulate her body very precisely.

In the sports industry, this situation is not uncommon. It is called the "zone" or "flow state", which refers to the situation in which one can burst out extraordinary strength when one is fully focused in sports competitions. (Note: This really happens in reality)

Ritsuka can enter this state very easily.

However, as a sports student, she has been a member of the volleyball team since junior high school. She has been exercising all the time, and even exercises much more than other people (because she recovers faster). However, her physical growth rate is not slow, but average.

Ritsuka's physical fitness is probably just above the average level for female high school club athletes of her age.

Therefore, although Ritsuka became a key member of the volleyball club and improved the club's performance in competitions, he did not lead his teammates to soar in performance like the story in sports comics.

She had difficulty growing in strength.

On the contrary, in some "sports competitions" that do not require much physical strength, Lixiang unexpectedly achieved very good results, specifically "e-sports".

E-sports does not require physical strength, but the physical strength of e-sports is more about "endurance" and "willpower", which is different from traditional sports.

Li Xiang can easily maintain a high level of concentration and rarely makes mistakes.

Although the school does not have an e-sports club, Lixiang herself has privately received many invitations from e-sports clubs - if nothing unexpected happens, perhaps she will take this path in the future?
Anyway!

Although Ritsuka's body is 'strangely ordinary', she is 'definitely not a scumbag'!
There will be absolutely no mistakes.

It definitely wasn't an illusion, Ritsuka was sure that he heard a "sound"!
There are voices, in other words – there are survivors.

There are survivors.

The moment this thought appeared in Lixiang's mind, she took action, covering her mouth and nose with one arm, and rushed into the fire without thinking.

He didn't even consider his own safety.

Someone needed rescue, and she happened to be at the scene, heard the cry for help, and took action.

Even if he encountered danger, well, didn't Ritsuka still have seven chances to make a deal with the little devil? Compared to saving lives, this kind of thing should be used, right?

If Toosaka Rin was here, she might not complain, "Why are you acting like Shirou?"

The agile hands of the active female high school student in the sports club and her ability to accurately control her body allowed Ritsuka to accurately lock onto the source of the sound, climb over the broken walls, and find the person who was calling for help.

Trapped under the rubble was an oriental-looking girl with twin ponytails.

Judging from her appearance, she seems to be about the same age as me.

Her lower body was crushed under the rubble, and blood was flowing out uncontrollably. If it were an ordinary person, this would undoubtedly be a fatal injury - no, it would be a lethal injury.

The amount of bleeding was outrageous.

Some of the blood that was spilled around was even set on fire.

But she's still alive.

After all, the fact that she could survive in the center of an explosion like that was enough to prove that she was no ordinary person.

In this case, the injury that would be fatal to an ordinary person - for her, there might still be a chance of rescue!

Lixiang immediately started to rescue: It's too dangerous here, a second explosion or collapse could happen at any time, so we have to dig her out from under the rubble first!

As for whether this rescue behavior will cause secondary injuries?

People can survive such an outrageous situation - considering that Chaldea is an organization in the mysterious world, maybe the twin-tailed girl in front of me is not an ordinary person!

Maybe they're not even human!
Look at this outrageous amount of bleeding!
What if he is a vampire or something like that?
While trying to dig her out, Ritsuka called out to her, "Wake up!"

[(Because in the judgment of 'who was rescued', it was not a great success, but a normal success. The members of Group A were all taken care of by Leif, and the explosion occurred at the moment their bodies were broken into spirit particles, so it is assumed here that 'Akabe Hinako' is in a 'near-death state')]

[('Existence is in a near-death state', that is, not just physical damage, but even existence itself has been destroyed)]

[(Combined test of 'will' and 'luck')]

[(If the total of both scores exceeds 90, Akagi Hinako will regain consciousness)]

[(During this period, if 'Luck' is less than 50, Akagi Hinako will fall into a 'temporary amnesia state')]

[(If Akagi Hinako successfully regains consciousness, regardless of whether she has lost her memory or not, you can add a 'Physique' check to determine whether she still has the ability to act)]

[(Akagami Hinako's 'will': 1D100=89)]

[(Akagami Hinako's 'Luck': 1D100=5)]

【（Total: 94）】

Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't know.

The 'time travel technology' that Chaldea has mastered is called - Soul Transfer.

This technology is not 'direct time travel', but 'indirect time travel'.

The steps are divided into four steps.

The first step: break the body of the traveler into spirit particles, so that it conceptually becomes a state of 'not existing in any time and space'.

Step 2: With the assistance of backstage staff, use a combination of scientific and mysterious techniques to "prove that the traveler exists at a certain spatial coordinate at the target time."

Step 3: The traverser in the spirit particle state will pass through the sea of imaginary numbers and be teleported to the destination.

Step 4: The spirit particles are reassembled into a traverser

This is how time travel is achieved.

Compared to "direct time travel" - such as the time machine in "Doraemon", the advantage of spirit particle transfer technology is that if the time traveler encounters danger on the front line, the rear command center can transfer him back using the same principle to escape.

But there's a problem.

If during the third step, an accident occurs in the rear base - for example, during the process of spirit particle transfer, the entire rear base suddenly explodes.

The unlucky time traveler, if he is lucky, may be thrown to random coordinates at an unknown time.

If you are unlucky, you will be thrown directly into the sea of imaginary numbers in the form of a spirit particle - this is worse than simple "death" and will become a state of conceptual "non-existence".

There is no chance of reincarnation.

No matter how powerful a magician is - even as strong as Team A's captain Kirshtalia, if he encounters this kind of problem, he can only suffer the consequences.

But there are always some exceptions who can survive
The member of Group A in front of Ritsuka, Aku Hinako, is such a special case.

She should have been buried in the Sea of Imaginary Numbers, but she survived miraculously, but not intact.

Under normal circumstances, a special being like Akagi Hinako can be pieced together and resurrected on the spot even if it is broken into pieces.

However, being exploded during the process of soul particle transfer - that is, being "broken into soul particles in the sense of the concept of existence" would be absolutely fatal to her.

With some strong will, she forcibly reversed her spiritized self and pieced it back to her original appearance - but the reversal was not perfect.

Because it happened suddenly and she was totally unprepared, the result of the incomplete reverse soul transformation was that part of Ake Hinako's 'soul' failed to return, and instead fell into the Sea of Imaginary Numbers with the other members of Group A.

Specifically, it is memory.

[(This is the punishment for Akagi Hinako's lucky failure)]

[(If there are no special circumstances, Aku Hinako's 'temporary amnesia' will last forever until the beginning of the second part of FGO, when the spirit particles in her memory will return - that is, her memory will be restored)]

In short.

Driven by a strong will to survive - although she now couldn't remember the reason why she wanted to survive, her strong instinct made her open her eyes again when she heard Ritsuka's call.

[(Can Akagi Hinako recover her 'ability to move'?]]

【（Difficulty: 75）】

[(Akagami Hinako's "Physique": 1D100=11)]

The makeshift body was too tattered.

Most importantly, because of the unfortunate loss of her memory, Akagi Hinako forgot a key piece of information - her true identity, which is a natural spirit with similar biological characteristics to the 'Vampire True Ancestor'. (Note: In the Type-Moon setting, True Ancestors and vampires are different creatures, but they have similar characteristics. This is written here for the convenience of readers who are not familiar with it, and it is not a mistake)
Eastern magicians call her a "natural fairy".

As long as he sucked enough blood, he could restore his physical mobility - but Aku Hinako forgot!
With his body in tatters and unable to move freely, he forgot this crucial information!

Although this description seems like a joke, it is indeed the case.

——The sound of a second explosion suddenly came
Akagi Hinako focused her attention. Although she had lost her memory and didn't remember who she was, she instinctively warned the orange-haired girl who was trying to save her: "Go! Leave now! It's dangerous here!"

Explosions, flames, and intermittent tremors like earthquakes.

The girl who tried to dig the rubble off Aku Hinako's body - Ritsuka was obviously in danger!

Akagi Hinako, who originally had a bad temper, has become herself again a long time ago due to amnesia—a period when she was not friendly to humans, but also had no malice:
"Although I don't know the reason, my intuition tells me that I won't die! You go to a safe place for shelter first! When you are stable, you can find someone to dig me out!"

This is not a lie.

Although Aku Hinako lost her memory, her body's unconscious instinct still remembered that she was immortal.

But it's too late to say this now.

After all this back and forth, Ritsuka had lost the chance to escape from 'that thing' that was about to happen.

"【Warning observation staff】"

A cold male electronic voice came from the radio.

"【Chaldeas's status has changed】"

"[The data collected by the observation lens Sheba has been copied]"

“[It is impossible to observe the existence of human beings in the future, and it is impossible to observe the lights of civilization a hundred years from now]”

"[The future of mankind cannot be guaranteed]"

"[The system will take the final response measures——]"

"【For the eternal glory of mankind】"

"[Anti-summoning system·Forced to open]"

"[Spirit particle transfer begins——]"

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Aku Hinako, their figures disappeared from Chaldea.

"【Heading to: 2004 Fuyuki City, codenamed 'Singularity F'】"

[(Ritsuka arrived at Fuyuki City in 2004. To be more precise, the place he arrived at is.)]

【(1. Matou House)】

[(2, Hogunhara Academy)]

[(3. Tousaka House)]

[(4. Fuyuki Bridge)]

【(5. Fuyuki Church)】

【（6. Twin Pavilion）】

【(7. Ryudong Temple)】

[(8. Emiya House)]

[(9, Einzbern City)]

[(10, ? (1, great success / 2, great failure))]

【（1D10=8）】

[(Is Akagi Hinako by Ritsuka's side?)]

【（1. in）】

[(2. Randomly teleported to another place in singularity F)]

【（1D2=2）】

Lixiang felt that all the images in front of him became blurred in an instant, followed by a brief trance.

When Ritsuka came to her senses again, she appeared in the courtyard of an unfamiliar Japanese-style mansion.

The dying Aku Hinako who was in front of him disappeared.

But Ritsuka did not fall into confusion.

Perhaps it was because he had just heard the introduction of the Chaldea organization not long ago, coupled with the voices he heard before traveling through time, that made Ritsuka guess: this was a place called Fuyuki City in Japan in 2004, code-named "Singularity F".

Ritsuka still remembered that Mashu and the director of Chaldea, the young woman named Olga Marie, had said that Chaldea's mission was to repair the singularity and save the world.

And this is also the mission of these chosen "Masters".

"Repair the singularity," Ritsuka muttered to himself.

But how to do it?
Maybe it was because he had listened to Olga Marie and Mashu's explanations in a daze before, although the incident happened suddenly, Ritsuka actually understood the current situation:
First, find a place that can be used as a base for activities, wait for contact from the Chaldea base in the rear, and summon the Heroic Spirit!

Ritsuka hesitated.

How to summon heroic spirits?

do not know.

Given the current situation in Chaldea, can we really wait for contact?
do not know.

Then-

"First, find a place that can be used as a base."

Ritsuka muttered to himself, looking towards the mansion in front of him.

Does this seem like the right place?

——Suddenly there was an explosion in the distance
Ritsuka took a deep breath and sprinted. As an athletic high school girl, she easily climbed up the wall of the mansion.

Look into the distance - no, no need to look.

The entire city was burning, with flames shooting up into the sky, dyeing it a mixture of red and black. If you didn't look carefully, you might even think it was just a dim daytime.

If you listen carefully, you can seem to hear explosions. Are they fighting?
But it was night now, except that the moon's silver disk was obscured by dark clouds.

Fortunately, the place where he was seemed to be located in the mountains of Fuyuki City, far away from the city center, and therefore seemed to be far away from the war.

This is a safe place. In other words.

"This place can be used as a base." Ritsuka muttered to himself.

But Ritsuka soon became worried about his other 'companion' - although Ritsuka didn't know Aku Hinako's name yet.

She was injured. What would she do if she encountered danger unlike her lucky self?
Ritsuka hesitated for a moment and decided to conduct a simple search in the mansion to see if there were any household medical kits. It would be even better if she could find a bicycle, as that would expand her range of movement and make it easier to find the injured person, Akagi Hinako.

Ritsuka enters Emiya's house and attempts a simple search for supplies
[(First, let's make an additional judgment: where is Akagi Hinako and what is the current situation?)]

[(1. In fact, he is near the Emiya residence and is being chased by the spearmen)]

[(2. Near the Fuyuki Church, being chased by the spearman (Medusa))]

[(3. Near the Fuyuki Bridge, being chased by an archer (Emiya Shirou)?)]

[(4/8, fell near Olga Marie)]

[(5. Picked up by Caster (Cuchulain))]

[(6. Fell in front of the swordsman (Altria?) and became a hostage?)]

[(7. In fact, there was an assassin (Cursed Arm Hassan) lying in ambush near the Emiya residence. Was she used as bait?)]

[(9. Einzbern City, hiding from the Berserker (Hercules)?)]

[(10. Super Expansion of Chaos)]

【（1D10=7）】

——Suddenly I smelled blood.

Lixiang was stunned

This was followed by a painful groan.

"Woo!!!"

Wandering in the singularity F, in the abnormal Fuyuki City, one of the many Heroic Servants whose minds are polluted and twisted, and who slaughter lives indiscriminately - the assassin, Cursed Arm Hassan.

As a weak assassin, Hassan the Cursed Arm did not hunt everywhere, but ambushed in the Emiya residence, a place that seemed far away from the war, waiting for the prey to take the bait.

Just now, the unlucky Akagi Hinako seemed to be still as unlucky as ever.

She actually appeared right in front of Hassan the Cursed!

Hassan, whose mind was polluted, tilted his head.

Although he was a weak Servant, a strange woman in a dying state suddenly appeared in front of him, and she seemed to be even weaker than him.

Hassan the Cursed Arm almost subconsciously swung his extremely huge and slender right arm that housed the devil, and pierced through Aku Hinako's heart!

Pull out——

Because after being hit like that, Aku Hinako didn't die, but instead let out a muffled groan in pain!
If it was Hassan the Cursed Arm under normal circumstances, he might think "Something is wrong! It's a trap! Run!" at this moment, but there are almost no sane servants in Fuyuki City now.

Curse Wrist looked at the heart in his hand.

He looked at the weak and painful but not dead Akagi Hinako on the ground.

Cursed-arm Hassan tilted his head.

Is this reasonable? ?
Well, the polluted and distorted servant will not be confused, it will just keep finishing off and trying to kill the opponent.

However, the sound made by Aku Hinako was heard by Ritsuka.

Ritsuka recognized it as Aku Hinako's voice and immediately rushed over!
Without both parties - or all three parties realizing it, Aku Hinako became a trap to lure Fujimaru Ritsuka into it!

Hearing the sound of running footsteps, Hassan the Cursed Arm immediately hid his body, intending to wait for another opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

however.

Although she was too weak to move, the immortal Aku Hinako smelled the scent of Fujimaru Ritsuka, and thinking of his previous attempt to save her, Aku Hinako responded:

"Don't come over! There are enemies here! It's a trap!!!"

Although Aku Hinako doesn't even know Ritsuka's name.

Ritsuka's footsteps stopped.

Then immediately flee in the opposite direction!

Hassan the Cursed Arm no longer hid, because he realized that the prey approaching this time was also weak!

Just an ordinary person!

Kill directly!

The assassin no longer lurked, but directly waved his hand to blast away the tatami door in the Emiya residence and went straight to kill Fujimaru Ritsuka!
Fujimaru Ritsuka panicked and didn't know where to go. Even though she was a sports student, she was just an ordinary person after all. She couldn't compare with a Heroic Spirit. She could only rely on her instincts and run towards the place she subconsciously thought was the safest.

--stop!
The sound breaks through the air.

It's a thrown knife.

Ritsuka Fujimaru subconsciously judged the direction of the flying knife based on his figure, and flew to the side and front, trying to dodge.

However, the physical fitness of an ordinary high school girl in the athletic club cannot compare to that of an assassin who is skilled in this field.

Ritsuka, who flew out, failed to dodge the attack and was still pierced through the right shoulder by the flying knife. After being hit in mid-air, she was actually blown several meters away by the heroic spirit's power that far exceeded that of ordinary people!

He fell to the ground in a mess, tumbling due to inertia, and his field of vision suddenly went dark—

Only then did Ritsuka realize that he had unknowingly run into the small warehouse of this mansion.

The warehouse is connected to the outside world by only one door.

In the eyes of the high school girls, the assassin Hassan with Cursed Arms, who was over two meters tall, was simply a monster!

That monster blocked the only entrance.

There was no way she could escape.

But she did not give up.

Even Fujimaru Ritsuka herself didn't know where she, an ordinary high school girl, got the courage and determination from.

Before the mind even thinks about the fear, the body has already taken action.

Ritsuka pulled out the throwing knife from her shoulder - the throwing knife of the Cursed Arm Hassan, who was over two meters tall, was almost a dagger in the girl's hand.

Even if you are going to die, you must struggle until the last moment!
Lixiang's face was pale, but he said nothing. He didn't beg for mercy or cry out. He just silently clenched the dagger and pounced on Hassan the Cursed-Arm!

If anyone familiar to Shirou Emiya is here.

You may be tempted to sigh, “This is simply the female version of you.”

——Maybe that’s why
Perhaps, it is because of this similarity.

Perhaps, I came to this place by accident.

Accidental conclusion.

It will inevitably appear.

The moment before Ritsuka wanted to call the little devil Fujimaru Haruka and say that he wanted to make a deal with her -

The moment before Hassan the Cursed Wrist thrust out his huge, deformed 'Cursed Wrist' that was cursed by the demon god and was about to pierce through the girl's body -

The light, accompanied by lightning, flickered with Fujimaru Ritsuka as the center.

And with it comes - heat.

When he appeared, the temperature around him suddenly soared, and there seemed to be a faint smell of rust in the air.

A man appears.

He seems to be a little older than Fujimaru Ritsuka, and has similar hair to Ritsuka, which makes Ritsuka wonder, "If there is a male version of me in this world, I'm afraid he would look like this?"

However, compared to the current Ritsuka, the color of his hair and eyes are darker, and his body exposed to the air is well-trained with muscles that would make fitness enthusiasts feel "beautiful". He is wearing a pure white cape and one arm has a blacksmith-style gauntlet.

He wore a forehead protector on his head, which covered his left eye like the character Hatake Kakashi in Ritsuka's favorite manga "Naruto", leaving only his golden pupil that seemed to be burning, like a dragon in a fantasy story.

The man pulled out a samurai sword from somewhere.

The blade was red, not because of the color, but because of - 'high temperature'.

The extremely high temperature resides on the blade, and it seems that even the surrounding space is distorted by the temperature!
——The blade flashes!
The cursed hand of Hassan the Cursed fell!

Along with it came a shock wave that tore through the sound barrier like an explosion! The roof of the entire warehouse was blown off by the aftermath of this attack!
There was a sharp sizzling sound from the cross section of the wound, and the blade of the samurai sword that the man had just swung actually melted directly after this blow!
It's like... the life of a knife is all melted into one strike.

Polluted Servants have no sense of pain.

But Cursed Arm Hassan sensed a strong sense of crisis from the man who suddenly appeared in front of him!

He could die, he could die at any time. The crisis that had previously happened to Ritsuka Fujimaru was now being reflected back on him a million times!

--retreat
I must escape, then hide, and then find an opportunity to assassinate—

[Cursed Hassan's 'Escape': 1D100=7]

[Shirou's 'Pursuit': 1D100=99 (keep this great success for now, and give it as a reward later when the time is right)]

Shirou didn't pay attention to the narration's description.

The chopped-off 'Cursed Hand' of Hassan the Cursed Wrist suddenly struggled. It was able to move even after being separated from its owner! Hassan the Cursed Wrist intended to use it to divert attention and attack from the east to the west to save the Zhao. The 'Cursed Wrist' containing the curse rushed straight towards Fujimaru Ritsuka!

But it was no use.

After Shirou, the second figure appeared in front of Ritsuka. It was a girl dressed as a magician with her long platinum hair, almost silver, tied into a ponytail - Caster!

The magic light flickers on the staff!

"Rubber stick technique! Hey! Go away!"

Caster raised his staff and swung it like a baseball bat towards Hassan the Cursed!
At the same time, Shirou, who has always been a root-out wielder, naturally adopted the attitude of "If the next move fails, then use the power of my left eye" when facing Hassan the Cursed Arm who was trying to escape.

The golden right eye stared at the figure of Hassan the Curse Wrist in mid-air, and his lips moved as he chanted at high speed. A large number of spells were compressed into one Chinese character:
"--break"

Hassan the Cursed was instantly ignited - no, it was more like a high-temperature bomb that appeared out of thin air than ignited!

The explosion blasted Hassan of the Cursed Arm, who could easily jump to a height of ten meters, back to the ground, and the high temperature ignited his body!

The 'Cursed Wrist' that Caster pulled back hit Cursed Wrist Hassan's face directly and accurately.

Hassan the Cursed Arm did not get the chance to "struggle painfully". Seven swords of different sizes and shapes suddenly appeared in the void and nailed him to the ground.

"I don't know why, but this guy has the Holy Grail for the devil. I've encountered a similar situation before."

Shirou glanced at Hassan's Cursed Wrist and said to Caster:
"The curse power in this thing comes from the Crescent Moon Cult's demon god 'Shai Yi Tuo', which is also the 'Satan' in the Cross. This thing is much more dangerous than Hassan himself. Just in case there is any 'death word', I will exorcise it right away."

Shirou was no longer the half-baked Shirou who seemed to have a lot of power but was actually unable to fully exert his power on his own ten years ago. He skillfully formed the Acala hand seal and chanted the mantra in full:

"Nan! Sava! Tathagata! Niddhiya! Savamukhiya! Savattha. Tathagata. Shidenzanna! Maharusana! Khen! Khachikhofan. Khachikhofan. Samvavijinnan! Hum! Tathagata! Han!"

Chant the entire Fire Realm Mantra in full, and with the power of Acala - the 'Command Wheel Body of Mahavairocana', exorcise the evil spirits that are cursed by the evil spirits!
of course!

For Shirou, who has devoted himself to the practice of Buddhism for many years, has accomplished great deeds, and is loved by many Buddhas—

easy!
“——【Acala Fire World Mantra】!”

——After completing all this.

Because the summoning process this time was very unusual - or Shirou himself couldn't quite figure out what process he had gone through and what had happened to him to be summoned as a Servant.

Caster's identity is Shirou's 'follower spirit' and 'noble phantasm'.

Anyway——

Shirou turned back to look at his 'Master'. Next he would get information from her, find out what happened and who was behind it.

Then - salvation (killing)!
Anyway, according to convention, what should be said at this time is -

"Servant, Saber, come as summoned."

Shirou looked at the girl who was now sitting on the ground. Perhaps it was a coincidence, but her features in all aspects seemed to be unexpectedly similar to his own - she had a name that was both familiar and unfamiliar to Shirou.

There was also an 'aura' that Shirou found familiar, especially similar to Sakura, yet strange.

Shirou pointed to Caster who was smiling and hello lively beside him: "She is now my Noble Phantasm (sword) and my temporary partner."

Custer laughed and stuck out his tongue: "It's the employer! It's the relationship between the boss and the henchman!"

Li Xiang stared blankly at the man in front of him.

Just like myself.

And this strong and mature feeling is just like the 'ideal mature self' of Ritsuka Fujimaru of a different gender.

"Ask"

Just at this moment, the moonlight rarely pierced through the dark clouds in the gloomy sky of Singularity F and sprinkled on the earth. The light of the waxing moon bathed Emiya Shirou's back, and his right eye, which was similar to Ritsuka and even more like Haruka, twinkled like the morning star (Venus) in the starry sky.

"Are you my Master?"

Ritsuka Fujimaru nodded subconsciously.

——Then he quickly stood up!
"Saber! There's more than one person here! There's another one."

Ritsuka hesitated for a moment, she realized that she didn't know Akagi Hinako's name yet:
"There is another senior with me! She is seriously injured! Go and treat her!"

Because she was too anxious to save people, Ritsuka actually forgot about the hole in her shoulder for a moment, and did not notice Shirou's strange look (looking at her wound). She pulled Shirou and wanted to save people!

But Shirou grabbed her back and protected Ritsuka——and Caster behind him!
Because Shirou sensed a powerful presence that was investigating from above!

The exploration range covers almost the entire Fuyuki City! ?

[3/7, Lancer (Medusa) is being led by Archer to kill us!? ]

[8/9, Yes, it is the legendary Morgan version Archer (Emiya Shirou)! (In addition to possessing the Red A ability, it also has a powerful spellcasting ability! It is a 'dual-class servant (with Caster skill correction)'!)]

[10. Chaos Super Expansion]

【1D10=9】

——Shirou saw it
From a distance of more than two kilometers, Shirou saw the beautiful figure standing on top of the TV tower in the new town area of Fuyuki City.

They met each other's eyes at the same time.

Both sides were stunned at the same time.

The opponent's archer was stunned because he saw Shirou and Ritsuka's faces.

Shirou was stunned because he thought he saw another Caster, but with a more silvery hair color and a face full of unnatural black and red cracks, the "Altria face".

Now, as a servant spirit, Caster, who serves as the Noble Phantasm of Saber's Servant Shirou, sees a figure that is both familiar and unfamiliar to her when sharing vision with Shirou.

Custer: "**Fairy Country Country Swearing**! Morgan!?"

Shirou and Morgan (?) started to move at the same time, projecting bows and arrows - but because archer Morgan had the additional correction of the Caster (magician) class, for the same similar spell, her casting speed was faster than Shirou, who had the Saber (swordsman) class and no additional correction!
A distance of two thousand meters is just a moment for a shooter of this level.

Shirou immediately realized that since his opponent had taken the initiative, it was too late for him to retaliate with the same method.

In that case——

Then try another method!
This is an ability that only Shirou Emiya, who has taken a unique mutation path unique to the celestial world, possesses!
Shirou took off his forehead protector, revealing his hidden left eye with an iris that showed a strange emblem pattern. He stared in the direction of the archer, forming hand seals and chanting spells!
The arrow shot by the archer crossed a distance of two thousand meters in an instant and arrived above the Emiya family, about to hit Shirou - but before that!
The strangely shaped arrow suddenly emitted light and exploded in flames and high temperature!
【Fantasy Collapse】!
The arrow that was a treasure exploded!

The light, heat and shock wave of the explosion covered the entire Emiya family within the attack range and was about to raze it to the ground!

"Nam! Samantabhadra! Vajra! Na! Zhan! Na! Maharasana! Svajra! Hum! Dharaka! Hanxiangao! -- Man!"

Shirou's response to this is -

“——[Acala’s Mantra for Saving Mercy (Fire Avoidance Mantra)]!!!”
