If Princess Alice hadn't been so unfamiliar with the other demon kings, she would never have been so reckless as to go and meet this 'king'.
However, it seems too late now. Whether the Council of Sages likes it or not, this world-spanning organization has now been taken over by this "King".
The fact that this "King" was willing to heal his own body suggests it's unlikely to be because of the Council of Sages.
Shirou looked at Princess Alice's expression as she bit her lip, seemingly deep in thought, and roughly understood what she was thinking.
However, he didn't care about any of that; instead, he was thinking about what method to use to restore the girl's body.
Soon, Shirou had already found the answer in his heart.
———— "Avalon (an ideal land far removed from the world)".
This scabbard possesses the ability to heal its wielder's wounds and halt aging. If the power of the scabbard is unleashed, it can even place the user in the fairy realm, shielding them from all physical influences, making them untouchable even by the five great magics.
Even "EA·Ea" cannot affect the scabbard after it is released.
All of this is enough to demonstrate the power of the scabbard "Avalon (an ideal land far removed from the world)".
The original "Avalon (away from dust)"
The "ideal world" has the limitation that Saber must be present for it to function.
However, if Shirou creates it himself using his powers, he can remove this restriction.
Unfortunately, he doesn't have any on hand right now.
After all, Excalibur is still being forged.
After weighing his options, Shirou reached out to Princess Alice, and golden divine power surged forth, as if a layer of golden light was covering the girl.
"This is?"
Princess Alice felt the divine power surging into her body, and her eyes widened in surprise, her face full of disbelief.
An unprecedented vitality filled her body.
"Amazing……!"
Princess Alice sat up and curiously moved her hands and feet around.
The girl felt that her body, which should have been exhausted by her innate powerful spiritual energy, was now full of vitality.
"This is only temporary. A mortal body cannot retain divine power, not even the strongest witch."
Shirou continued.
"This divine power can only last for a month. After a month, you will return to your previous weak state. Come back to me when you find clues about the disobedient god."
"I understand, Lord Orihara. Please await good news."
Feeling the divine power slowly draining from her body, Princess Alice was now eager to complete the task assigned to her by the 'King'.
Previously, she hadn't felt anything while in her weakened state, but now that she had experienced the feeling of being able to move freely, Princess Alice no longer wanted to leave her current state.
She even had a somewhat greedy hope that this 'king' could frequently infuse her with divine power.
Feeling her body brimming with energy, Princess Alice's eyes suddenly welled up with tears. With her eyes slightly reddened, she quickly supported herself with her hands and got out of bed, standing on the ground with her bare, delicate feet.
"your Highness!"
The housekeeper, who was standing to the side, was startled by Princess Alice's actions and instinctively wanted to go forward to help her, but then she saw Princess Alice smiling and gently shaking her head at her, and she stopped in her tracks.
Her golden hair was spread out loosely. Even after lying in bed for so many years, the girl's long hair was still as smooth as silk, which meant that she had someone to take care of it for her every day.
Princess Alice's jade-like feet gently touched the ground. Perhaps because she hadn't experienced this in a long time, her slender body swayed slightly, but she quickly regained her balance.
Her face was beaming with an unprecedented smile as she walked merrily around the room, like a sprite flitting among the flowers.
Several years ago, when she was bedridden, she thought she would never be able to stand up again, and that she could see the end of her life at a glance.
But life is unpredictable, and no one knows if a surprise will suddenly arrive one day.
Her long, golden hair flowed freely, reflecting a captivating glow in the sunlight. The young woman savored this long-lost feeling, the sensation of being in perfect control of her body.
Finally, like a piece of music coming to an end, the girl turned to Shirou, then lifted the hem of her dress with both hands and bowed to him.
"Alice Louise Of Nafal, see Orihara 'King'."
Chapter 42: Is this some kind of freebie?
Faced with Princess Alice's behavior, Shirou smiled slightly, put his hands in his pockets, and looked out the window at the scenery.
The azure sky, the calm ocean, and the peaceful city seemed as if the disaster had never happened, and had now been quelled by the local magic society.
"All is well... It seems that 'Black Prince' Alec no longer dares to come and vent his anger."
'Black Prince' Alec considers himself a smart man and acts relatively cautiously. He prefers to deal with enemies through strategy. Given the other party's personality, he would naturally not come without knowing Shirou's strength.
Shirou caused such a commotion when he faced the three main gods, so all the special beings in the world must have already noticed his power.
Of the other six 'Godslayers', apart from 'Sword King' Salvatore Tony, the other five have not yet seen Shirou in person.
Even so, I imagine they would try to learn about Shirou from various sources.
But that's not as real as seeing it in person.
Those who are curious about Shirou will definitely want to meet him in person.
Those who are confident in themselves will come knocking, while those who lack confidence in their abilities will wait for the so-called opportunity under the pretext of "planning before acting".
In fact, if there were no Demon Kings, their thoughts would be perfectly normal, but when there is such a group of unreasonable Demon Kings in this world, those thoughts become meaningless.
……
The journey from London, where Princess Alice lives, back to Naples will take a few hours, which isn't long, but Shirou isn't going to wait any longer.
So he took Liliana and Erica with him and flew through the sky.
Return in the manner described above.
Although Liliana and Erica both possess the magic of flight, their speed is naturally no match for Shirou, who is a 'Godslayer'.
So, even though they were somewhat prepared, when Shirou led them into the sky, winding between the clouds and the blue sea, the two still let out screams that went up and down like they were on a roller coaster.
After returning to the villa in Naples, both knight princesses were in a daze.
When the two maids, Karen and Ariana, arrived in the courtyard, they looked at the two people with utterly bewildered expressions with some curiosity.
"Hey? Lily, what's wrong?"
"Erica, are you alright?"
It took the two knight princesses quite a while to finally recover from their dizziness. This was a hundred times more thrilling than a roller coaster!
Afterwards, Shirou stayed at the villa in Naples for two weeks, not only digesting the divine power he had taken from Zeus, the "King of Gods," but also becoming more proficient in the three new powers.
During this time, both the magic societies in Southern Europe and the Council of Sages mobilized their respective forces to help Shirou find all the clues about the 'Disobedient Gods' around the world.
Of course, they are also searching for clues about the 'Last King', but Shirou doesn't have high hopes for it.
Even if they found the place where the 'Last King' slept, they still couldn't kill him.
Even if Shirou can now sever two planets, in the end he will only be dragging the battlefield into space.
"What should I do..."
Shirou stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the city outside, which seemed to be covered with a golden glow under the sunlight.
"In any case, let's forge as many EX Noble Phantasms as possible and create them all."
With Shirou's almost inexhaustible magical power, he can unleash any number of EX Noble Phantasms at will.
This is equivalent to having an unlimited ultimate move, and you can switch to another EX Noble Phantasm after using one, with no cooldown time at all.
So Shirou is now perfectly capable of destroying a planet.
At least on this planet beneath his feet, he could easily crush it.
"It feels like Earth is always relegated to being a unit of combat power."
Shirou shook his head, somewhat amused.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
dong dong dong...
"come in."
As Shirou spoke, the doorknob turned, and a beautiful girl with long platinum blonde hair and a slender, graceful figure walked into the room.
The girl possessed a captivating aura, like the most precious perfume of time. She wore a white velvet shirt with floral patterns on the collar and an expensive shawl draped over her shoulders. Her hands were folded in front of her lower abdomen, and even her posture seemed to be full of ritual.
Good evening, 'Wang'.
The girl, exuding an aristocratic air, smiled at Shirou and then bowed.
Shirou nodded: "It seems we have a clue about the 'Disobedient God'."
"Yes."
Princess Alice replied.
"We found two clues, one from Sardinia and the other from Japan."
After Princess Alice explained the clues for the two locations, Shirou nodded knowingly.
"Looks like it's those few..."
Shirou already had some guesses in his mind, but he couldn't make a conclusion before seeing it with his own eyes.
However, if it were the few 'disobedient gods' he knew, the one that would interest Shirou the most would be the power of the 'war god' Vereslana.
Those ten incarnations possess very comprehensive powers, especially the shining golden sword, which should be used to enhance his "Unlimited Blade Works".
Thinking about this, Shirou began to feel a sense of anticipation.
At this moment, Princess Alice looked at Shirou with a hint of something unsaid.
“‘Wang’, that…”
Seeing the girl's expression of longing yet forced restraint, Shirou smiled.
"It's not difficult to heal your body, but it may require you to make a small sacrifice."
Inserting "Avalon" into her body might cause some pain for Princess Alice, whose body is already weaker than that of ordinary people.
However, upon hearing this, Princess Alice's heart began to race; the word "sacrifice" made her feel uneasy.
