Crossover Anime: Collecting Treasures from All Worlds Starting with Type-Moon

"Sakura, step aside. The battle later might get very chaotic."

As she spoke, she took out two rune stones from her pocket, which is one of the most basic uses of runes.

Runes are pre-drawn in a stone with magical storage properties, and can be taken out and used whenever needed, requiring only a small amount of guiding magic.

"¨～ Three"

"two"

"one!"

She predicted with incredible precision the instant the intruder appeared in her sight, and at that very moment, the white rune rushed toward the unannounced intruder!

"Rune Magic: Ice Spike!"

Aozaki Touko possesses an EX-level magic circuit, which brings exceptionally high and pure magical power, making her magic much more powerful than others!

As Aozaki Touko's furious shout rang out, the rune stone she threw exploded instantly, producing a cloud of white smoke. Within that smoke, dozens of rhomboid ice spikes slammed down on the unannounced intruder!

"Void Shield".

Just as the rhombus-shaped ice spikes were about to pierce the intruder, a strange purplish-black energy appeared on his body. The moment all the ice spikes touched that purplish-black energy, they turned into dust and vanished into nothingness!

At this moment, Aozaki Touko finally got a clear look at the visitor's appearance.

He was a boy who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, at most sixteen or seventeen.

The boy was clearly a magician, without a doubt, so even though he looked very young and had a handsome face, Aozaki Touko still didn't let her guard down.

Ultimately, magicians are abnormal "non-human" beings. Every magician can be described as an extreme egoist; it's just that some hide it well, while others express it directly.

Aozaki Touko was the same; she was inherently distrustful of everyone around her, let alone a stranger.

Before she knew it, another rune stone had slipped into her palm.

Both men fell silent.

Just as Aozaki Touko was about to rush forward, Shen Qiu finally heard Sakura's familiar voice again.

"Brother Qiu!"

Hiding behind the table, Sakura couldn't help but observe Aozaki Touko's battle. However, upon closer inspection, she discovered that the person fighting Touko's master was actually her "lost" older brother, whom she had been separated from for more than five months!

"elder brother?"

Aozaki Touko was stunned after hearing Sakura's voice. So the other party wasn't the one who was supposed to be sealed!

"Wait a minute, Sakura, you mean the person who's coming is your older brother, right? The one who's rumored to be the once-in-a-century water magic genius, Matou Aki."

Orange stopped Sakura, whose eyes were watering, from rushing into Shen Qiu's arms. Orange gave Shen Qiu a half-smile, a malicious smile that sent chills down Shen Qiu's spine.

"Long time no see, Sakura. I'm sorry I haven't been able to get in touch with you before."

Shen Qiu smiled apologetically at Sakura, who had grown even taller. At the time, due to the urgency of the situation, he hadn't made proper arrangements for many things. Fortunately, Emiya Kiritsugu was a man of his word.

"...Hey, Matou Aki, I heard your magic training is quite good. Although you didn't study systematically at the Clock Tower, your magic level is already at least at the Color Rank. I also heard you won the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City, is that right?"

In recent Japanese mystery stories, the name "Matou Aki" has become quite famous. People say that after a century of decline, the Matou family is about to be revived, and all of this is due to the boy in front of them.

"If there isn't another Matou Aki who practices magic, then they're probably talking about me."

Shen Qiu smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

The secretive circles in Japan are too small; after a few days of fermentation, an event may become common knowledge.

This wouldn't happen if it were in a clock tower.

"Since you're a magician, (Lano's) you should understand that you shouldn't enter someone else's magic workshop without their permission. If this were the Clock Tower, I could kill you without breaking the law."

Aozaki Touko seemed somewhat angry. On one hand, the humiliation of being sealed and hunted down had left her feeling resentful for a long time. On the other hand, Shen Qiu's behavior showed that he completely disregarded her.

But Shen Qiu really didn't know Ah Yong!

He learned magic that was more focused on combat, and his training was done in a family-style manner under Zouken Matou. How could he know about so many strange and messy rules in the magic world?

"It's okay if you don't know, but you'll at least have to pay a price. Take five moves from my men. Don't worry, I won't kill you—"

P.S.: Please give me flowers, subscriptions, donations, votes, and anything else! It really means a lot to me!

"If I could, I really wouldn't want to fight you. Isn't there any other way to resolve this, Miss Orange?"

Shen Qiu smiled somewhat awkwardly. It wasn't that he was afraid to fight this Miss Aozaki Touko, but rather that most of the magic he possessed was quite powerful large-scale AOE. If he went all out here, Miss Touko's magic workshop might be destroyed by him.

At that point, this already short-tempered woman will probably want to skin herself alive...

"That's not something you can decide. Don't worry, I won't go too far. I won't kill you or cripple you, but as a lesson for trespassing into a magician's territory, there has to be some punishment."

Orange's confidence was not unfounded. Even her classmate, Araya Sōren, who was regarded as a fighting monster by the students in the same department, could not defeat her in a one-on-one situation. She was confident in dealing with a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.

"So--"

Orange pulled two more exquisitely crafted runes from the left pocket of her coat, a malicious smile already creeping onto her lips. 290

"Fire Rune: Roaring Dragon"

"Wind Rune: Turbulent Wind"

"Combined Rune - Blazing Tornado!"

With the rapid activation of the EX-level magic circuits within his body, the two runes shattered instantly, releasing intense fragments. Immediately afterwards, a long tongue of fire, over ten meters long, accompanied by a fierce gale, roared towards Shen Qiu!

"This guy...."

Seeing the fierce fire tornado rushing towards him, Shen Qiu did not panic, but was stunned for a moment. Wasn't this two of the three runes he had given to Aozaki Touko?

Unexpectedly, the other party had completely mastered the technology in just over four months and was able to create a replica with comparable strength. Even more unexpectedly, she was already able to control it with complete ease and use it in actual combat.

It's worth mentioning that acquiring two primordial runes in just over four months is an incredibly rapid pace, comparable even to magicians from the Age of Gods. It would be unfair to compare Shen Qiu's learning speed with that of a regular magician.

The first person to teach Shen Qiu was Scáthach, the wielder of the original runes. She possessed an incredibly powerful innate skill—[The Wisdom of the Magic Mirror]—which allowed her to achieve twice the result with half the effort when teaching others.

Secondly, Shen Qiu himself possessed extremely high talent, and with the copying effect of the Sharingan and the blessing of the Rune of Wisdom, he was able to master the Rune in just seven days.

Aozaki Touko, however, was different. She possessed only exceptional talent and diligent study, which was why Shen Qiu was momentarily stunned.

"I can only say that you are a genius who can become a Grand Magus in this era as a woman. In that case, I will give you all my respect!"

Looking at the giant fiery dragon that was almost within reach, Shen Qiu's eyes showed no panic.

"Water Escape—"

"Water Barrier!"

Shen Qiu didn't hold back either, immediately unleashing his strongest defensive technique: the Water Wall, improved by the Second Hokage, whose defensive power was naturally beyond question!

A huge wave of water spread out from under Shen Qiu's feet in an instant, reaching more than ten meters in less than two seconds. As Shen Qiu increased his magical power, it instantly transformed into a waterfall-like scene!

All the water moved around Shen Qiu in a semi-circle. The powerful rune magic, a mixture of fire and wind, crashed into the water array wall and immediately turned into a white eye and disappeared without even shaking the surface of the water array wall!

"Ni-chan!"

Sakura, who was initially a little anxious, immediately showed a look of surprise after seeing that Touko's attack on Shen Qiu was successfully neutralized. In just four months, her brother's magic seemed to have gotten even stronger!

"I must learn magic properly from Master Orange!"

Sakura, standing to the side, watched the magnificent magic show before her and secretly made up her mind.

"Oh? It's interesting."

Seeing that her opponent had easily blocked her magic attack, Aozaki Touko did not show any surprise or panic. If even this level of skill was useless, then she would have to question how her opponent got the title of "the genius magician of Fuyuki City".

"A very beautiful use of water magic. To summon such a huge wave of water out of thin air in such a short time and to control it with such precision, young man, your magic skills are quite good."

Touko Aozaki rarely praises others; that's not her personality at all. To be honest, she's even a bit arrogant. Although she doesn't show it much, she's quite confident in her magic skills and insights. But actually, all magicians are like that; they all think their magic is the best.

"You too, I didn't expect that you could study these two runes so thoroughly in just over four months. You truly deserve to be called a senior who completed all the courses of the Clock Tower in just two years."

As the saying goes, flattery will get you everywhere. As one of the most outstanding magicians of this era, it is worthwhile to befriend Orange. Moreover, she will be involved in many of Type-Moon's works later on, so there will only be benefits and no harm in befriending her.

Sakura stood beside them, clenching her fists and listening intently to the two men's mutual flattery.

"Haha, I didn't expect you to be so eloquent despite your young age. Since you're so likable, I'll reduce the five moves to three. But things won't be so easy from here on out!"

Just when Shen Qiu thought she was going to use Rune Magic again, Aozaki Touko simply clapped her hands at herself.

Yes, it was just a clap of hands.

However, the next second, an immense chill began to buzz in Shen Qiu's brain!

"later!"

Accompanied by a refreshing coolness, a man about two meters tall, wearing a strange black combat suit and a large cleaver, appeared behind him!

Just as the machete in his hand was about to strike Shen Qiu, Shen Qiu managed to dodge the fatal blow at the critical moment thanks to his superhuman flexibility and speed!

"This is...."

Shen Qiu, who was standing to the side, looked at the somewhat strange black-clad male "person" behind him with a serious expression. He didn't know why his magic perception hadn't come in handy, but fortunately his intuition was as accurate as ever.

The other party seemed to have no signs of life.

"Do you know what my Grand title is, young man?"

Aozaki Touko leisurely took out a Longyan cigarette from her pocket and casually put it in her mouth.
