Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

Emiya Shirou's ability to kill [Broken Blade] twice previously involved a significant element of trickery.

Just like how Fariagni killed many Flame Haze warriors, due to a lack of information and a lack of understanding of Fariagni's Noble Phantasms, they were often killed by Fariagni just when they were about to succeed in defeating him.

Bad Blade didn't know what kind of effect the Noble Phantasms Shirou Emiya possessed could have, whether it was the existence of multiple Noble Phantasms, the explosion of Noble Phantasms, or the invasion of poison. Without any information, Bad Blade was caught off guard by Shirou Emiya's surprise attack.

The reason why Fariagni is known as a Crimson Lord for his cunning is simply because his strength was not enough to make the Flame Haze warriors feel troubled.

When [Broken Blade] fought against Shirou Emiya, it did not use its full strength, whether in offense or defense.

Although it was incredibly powerful and overwhelming, even destroying an entire city in an instant, being so easily killed twice by a human is hardly the level of a Crimson World Demon Lord who inspires fear.

With his level of strength, the power of existence is just a number. Even Xiu Denan doesn't know just how much power of existence the Crimson World Demon King known as the Bad Blade possesses.

He was willing to become an assassin and take the initiative to accept missions and complete tasks, all to demonstrate his essential desires and passions.

Hit in mid-air, Shirou Emiya plummeted to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

The broken blade stirred the sword that had pierced through Shirou Emiya's abdomen, and blood gushed out from Shirou's abdomen like a fountain.

Emiya Shirou swung his greatsword and slashed at the head of the broken blade.

But it was easily blocked by the sword he held in his other hand.

The power gap between humans and Crimson Lords is simply too great.

"boom--!"

During the battle in the air, Shirou Emiya and the broken blade fell to the ground together.

The scorching ground caused the armor on Shirou Emiya's back to sizzle.

The azure ring can withstand flames, but it cannot withstand stones that have already been stained by flames.

"【Possessed by evil spirits】!!!!"

If you continue to hesitate, you will only face certain death.

The second demonic possession armor covered Shirou Emiya's body, making his existing wounds even more severe, with visible blood seeping from inside his armor.

"drink!"

Emiya Shirou kicked out suddenly, and the unexpectedly powerful force sent the Blade flying backward before it could even defend itself.

"Oh!"

After his attack, Shirou Emiya quickly regained his footing and looked in the direction of Fariagne.

With a deafening roar, a pile of rubble suddenly exploded in the center of the crater where Shirou Emiya had fallen, sending up a violent shockwave that swept up like a storm.

Without any warning, the ground beneath Wei Shirou's feet suddenly cracked open.

It was crushed by a powerful force.

Suddenly, Shirou Emiya's figure vanished from the ground that had just exploded open.

The terrifying aura locked onto Fariagni and Shudnan.

"Is this guy really human?"

At this moment, Shudnan's expression became serious. Previously, Shirou Emiya could only be described as a threat, but now, with his aura suddenly surging, Shirou Emiya could be said to have become a troublesome existence for Shudnan.

Under these circumstances, Xiu Denan even took out his long-unused treasure—the [Divine Iron Ruyi].

A bright red light entered Fariagni's eyes.

"—!"

As before, Fariagni could only laboriously lift the white cloth beside him to block the way.

A blade of light, as bright as stars, flashed before Fariagni.

Under the heavy sword wielded by Shirou Emiya, the white cloth protecting Fariagne was easily torn apart, just like a piece of white cloth.

"clang--!"

The heavy steel spear, accompanied by a whistling sound, immediately collided head-on with the greatsword that was about to cleave Fariagni in two.

The overwhelming force caused Xiudenan to crouch down, and the ground cracked from the impact.

Chapter 256 A Death Without a Twist (Revised)

"Well…!"

Such a powerful force caused Xiudenan to utter a bitter sound.

Beside him, Faria Gni, barely able to react, quickly manipulated the pale white flames around him, transforming them into playing cards that shot towards Shirou Emiya.

At that distance, Shirou Emiya has no ability to dodge.

"boom--!"

Crimson lightning erupted from Shirou Emiya without warning, and the playing cards that were flying towards him were easily swallowed up by the crimson lightning before they could explode, just like the simplest deck of cards.

The next second, a blade of light suddenly appeared, and the terrifying force directly sent Shuten-Douji, who was blocking Shirou Emiya, flying.

Like lightning, the slash, before anyone could react, traced a perfect arc, slicing through Fariagni's body as unhindered as moonlight.

"Pfft——!"

With an unmistakably clear slashing sound, pale white flames, representing blood, shot out and scattered in all directions.

Unable to dodge, unstoppable, Fariagni's entire body was completely split in two, starting from his head.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Fariagni let out a painful howl.

"I'm not willing to give in, I'm not willing to give in!"

Pale white flames began to burn his body gradually, engulfing him at an extremely fast speed.

This Crimson Lord, who had been so troublesome for the Flame Haze, was slain by Shirou Emiya with a single, effortless strike, turning into pure Existence Power that drifted away in all directions.

At the very moment Shirou Emiya made his move, a doll emerged from Fariagne's collar, attempting to block the attack.

However, Shirou Emiya ruthlessly severed it along with Fariagne.

"The power has become even greater!"

Shudenan roared, his steel spear swung like a whirlwind, carrying murky purple flames and unparalleled force, slashing heavily towards Emiya Shirou, shattering and exploding the air in its path.

"clang!"

Amidst the heavy clang of metal clashing, Shirou Emiya, his body crackling with red lightning, clashed his greatsword with a heavy steel spear, sending sparks flying and creating a powerful impact.

But this terrifying attack, with its overwhelming power, did not shake Shirou Emiya standing in front of Shutonan in the slightest.

"Ughh ...

Before Shirou Emiya could react, Shudenan roared again, shaking the air. His arm, holding the steel spear, suddenly swelled up, growing larger and larger until it became a giant arm covered in bulging muscles.

"boom--!"

Under such immense force, the heavy steel spear rubbed against the crimson knight's sword, sparking intense sparks and emitting a piercing screech, finally suppressing Emiya Shirou and forcing his knight's sword to retreat.

【Magic Release】This is a skill that Shirou Emiya should not be able to master.

Shirou Emiya couldn't even master enhancement magic, let alone this kind of advanced transformation of magical power, an inherent skill that almost only Servants could master.

However, what Shirou Emiya held in his hand was a Noble Phantasm used by Mordred—the Radiant King's Sword.

Mordred and Artoria, unlike other Servants, possess the unique ability of Mana Release.

The Radiant King's Sword, a sword that only a king can amplify, loses its level by one when it is in Mordred's hands, and the bonuses it would have received when equipped are also lost.

However, the sword's inherent [amplification] function did not disappear. Mordred used this function to infuse the sword with his hateful magic, amplifying and releasing it.

Mordred's [Magic Projection] is the magic power released through the amplification of this sword.

Furthermore, Mordred's Noble Phantasm, "Rebellion Against My Magnificent Father," is an application of "Magic Release," and the released crimson lightning is an amplified and distorted expression of her longing for her father.

This is why Shirou Emiya cannot use magic projection when he projects the "Golden Sword of Certain Victory," but he can use magic projection when he projects the "King of Radiant Glory."

Shirou Emiya can only read about sword techniques. Arthur doesn't need to use weapons to project magic, so Shirou Emiya naturally wouldn't know how to project magic.

Mordred's ability to project her magic power can only be achieved through a sword, and Shirou Emiya can naturally achieve the same effect by using the [Radiant King Sword].

The ability to project magic power can enhance one's abilities by imbuing weapons or even one's own body with magic and releasing it instantly.

The fact that Artoria, despite her frail physique, could confront a monster like Berserker head-on is also due to the fact that she greatly enhanced her physical abilities with magic.

Unable to use enhancement magic to strengthen himself, Shirou Emiya used a more powerful method to enhance himself at this moment.

The combined effect of [Magic Release] + [Evil Spirit Possession] + [Evil Spirit Possession] is far greater than 1+1+1=3.

At that moment, Shirou Emiya killed Fariagne in just a few seconds.

Originally, Shirou Emiya was not able to use two [Demon's Embrace] items for an extended period of time, but [Magic Release] made Shirou Emiya's body even harder.

This would allow Shirou Emiya to hold on for a few more seconds, and Shirou Emiya would need to use those extra few seconds to resolve everything he could.

"boom----!"

A violent burst of crimson lightning erupted from Shirou Emiya's body.

A terrifying power emanated from Shirou Emiya's hands.

"clang--!"

Amidst the heavy clang of the weapons clashing, Shirou Emiya suddenly jerked his heavy sword, actually deflecting the heavy steel spear that had been pressing down on him.

Xiudenan also retreated rapidly behind him.

What was already a challenge for him was now a powerful aura emanating from Shirou Emiya that was able to suppress him.

This was something Xiu Denan had never imagined, and something he dared not even think about.

A human being, in terms of strength, was actually able to suppress himself.

This is no joke.

"Oh!"

The ground behind Shirou Emiya exploded once again, generating a violent gust of wind that shot towards Shudenan like a real lightning bolt.
