Crossover Anime: I, Shirou Kotomine, King of Uruk

"Ah, that feels so good, that feels so good!"

Kotomine Shirou, having ceased his offensive, stood still, calming himself down.

That satisfying punch made him feel much better.

The sights and sounds he witnessed along the way even stirred up anger within him.

It's just that his facial expression management skills are superior, so he didn't show it.

At this moment, after throwing this punch, Shirou Kotomine's face was full of smiles.

Those three, including Itadori Yuujin, who were standing behind and witnessed the punch, felt much more relieved.

This top-tier cursed spirit named Zhenren is truly detestable.

"That punch really hurt!"

After squeezing his body off the wall, the real person who landed back on the ground slowly stood up.

"The question of the relationship between his soul and body is even more complicated. The body must have been born before the soul; surely he could understand that with a little knowledge of biology?"

If an ordinary person were to take this punch, their abdomen would probably be completely pierced.

The real person directly refuted this.

"How convenient!"

"To be honest, that operation is quite difficult. After all, special people die soon after changing their form. Do you know what will happen to a sorcerer?"

With his injuries fully healed, Zhenren spread his hands and asked with a smile.

Hu Yuanjian concluded.

"It is even more meaningless to say whether the body or the mind takes precedence, because in the human body, the two are interdependent and coexist, and neither can do without the other."

The object had stopped shrinking in everyone's eyes and gradually transformed into an alien.

That should be the answer I have in mind.

Unlike humans, cursed spirits, which are composed of cursed power, are much more strained in terms of their ability to recover.

And my expression returned to the same broad smile as before.

"The form of the body is determined by the form of the soul."

"The chicken and the egg problem naturally comes from the fact that there was no chicken first, because no matter when, the egg must have been laid by the chicken, but after a few years, the chicken must have been laid from the egg."

However, Shirou Kotomine did not intend to answer according to my idea.

Clearly, I am very satisfied with Shirou Kotomine's answer.

The man casually rubbed his abdomen, and it had returned to normal.

"He seemed really angry just now. Is he in a better mood now? Would you like to talk to him?"

If you want a severed arm to regenerate, a special level of reversal technique can achieve that.

Recalling these humans who had been transformed into aliens, Shirou Kotomine found himself without an answer to the question about the real people.

Clearly, in my heart, the soul takes precedence over the body.

This was even though he was unprepared at the time and had not prepared any magical power in his abdomen to resist it.

I remember that real people's spells weren't unrelated to the soul; I seemed to be able to influence the other person's soul through touch.

While Kotomine Shirou was pondering, Masato, seeing Shirou's silence, continued, "Isn't there such a question? Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"

So I plan to get to know the other person again.

"Is that what he usually wants to say?"

Kotomine Shirou knew that, but the number would definitely be large.

Looking at the real person's expression, Hu Yuanjianlang's anger rose up.

Based on his own understanding, Shirou Kotomine gave an answer that was completely opposite to what the real person expected.

Then I took out a few more similar things and held them between my fingers, explaining, "Those are humans you shrunk up using magic."

"Do you remember your injuries from earlier? This isn't healing; it's you weakly maintaining your soul form."

Even if one's mastery of the reversal technique is high enough, its effect is merely to properly heal injuries.

The real person's ability is merely to change the form of the soul.

I no longer have that ability.

What's even more surprising is his recovery speed.

Does he really understand the soul? Does he truly have complete knowledge of the soul? Yes, but does he still have that ability?

Does losing that ability mean we can fully understand the mysteries of the soul?

After all, Shirou Kotomine doesn't intend to let Masato go; I haven't decided to completely eliminate him outside.

There are real people involved too.

I've long forgotten about the real person's personality.

"He thought he had the ability to change souls, so he knew all the secrets of the soul, but that was just his arrogant and ignorant thinking."

In that case, there's even less need to get to know the other party.

The real man's abdomen had been dented by Shirou Kotomine's punch.

"But your question is not: whether the soul resides in the body, or the body is attached to the soul."

I am merely a cursed spirit born from humanity's fear of humanity.

So, since we arrived, quite a few people have died at my hands.

While stretching his limbs, Shirou Kotomine, who was also interested in those high-ranking cursed spirits that lacked intelligence, asked.

"Yes, that is the correct answer. The soul always takes precedence over the body."

Reaching out and rubbing the spot where Shirou Kotomine had struck him, Masato spoke slowly.

Kotomine Shirou said brilliantly.

Kotomine Shirou was somewhat surprised by the real person's question.

That's just one of the abilities related to the soul.

Before a moment of silence, Shirou Kotomine looked up and met Masato's gaze, saying, "Those are just your own delusions."

"Soul and body?"

"Does he understand? Your technique cannot touch the soul or change its form."

I'm not as amazing as I think I am.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be too unfulfilling?

Watching this scene, Shirou Kotomine sighed inwardly.

"What you want to talk about is simple. It's not that you don't have a question you want to ask him, but rather whether he thinks the soul or the body should disappear first."

They're still alive!

"So my ability is to influence the body by altering the soul?"

"What he said was merely the foolish opinion of a knowledgeable person."

As he spoke, the man took out a small object that resembled a finger.

And that is indeed the case.

Just like humans, to master the ability to heal injuries, one must first master the reversal technique.

Hu Yuanjianlang doesn't even have spatial abilities yet, so does that mean I completely understand space and can't see its full picture?

But the real person's abdomen was merely sunken in.

"I'm really weird," the real person asked.

So all the aliens we've encountered since retreating into the sewers are just my recent transformations.

What changed after that?

It was as if that attack had no effect on me whatsoever.

"Want to chat? What does he want to talk about?"

But I quickly came to terms with it.

Killing a famous person brings no sense of accomplishment compared to killing a weakling.

As the real person said, the person I turned into an alien did not live for long.

"Those questions are meaningless; only mediocre people would dwell on them."
