Shirou's clones number 30 million

With Archer around, Berserker would find it difficult to focus on taking care of Illya, while he also had four Servants on his side.

The four of them might not be enough to take on Berserker, but they'd be more than enough to deal with Ilya.

With that thought in mind, Rin Tohsaka greeted Kojiro Sasaki and slowly walked towards Illya.

"Oh... Ilya, you lost."

"I didn't lose, Berserker is the strongest."

"Yes, yes... but I still have four Servants on my side. If I can get one of them to attack you, I can win immediately."

"What do you want to do?" Ilya involuntarily took two steps back.

"Hmph... What do you think?"

Rin Tohsaka chuckled mischievously for a moment, then stepped forward, pinched Illya's cheeks, and pulled them back and forth.

Under the threat of Sasaki Kojiro on one side, Illya was completely unable to make any move to resist.

"Give up, Ilya."

"No! Berserker will never lose to a despicable guy like you."

"Really? Then I won't stand on ceremony."

Pull—tear—pull…

Perhaps sensing the movement, Hercules froze, his giant axe hanging in mid-air, as Adris pierced his heart with a single blow.

Meanwhile, Unlimited Blade Works was canceled, and everyone returned to the castle.

Adris threw away his ice blade, stepped back abruptly, and transformed into a new form.

"Mimicry - Demon King".

This time, although he was radiating a black demonic aura, his appearance resembled that of Shirou Emiya, making him look like an adult version of Shirou Emiya.

"senior?"

Sakura Matou muttered to herself, thinking:

It really is a senior! So, the Servant summoned by Tohsaka-senpai really is a multi-faceted version of a senior.

Suddenly, the sky darkened.

Before the others could react, a golden beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping Hercules and instantly vaporizing him.

The castle roof disappeared as well, and the night sky was filled with twinkling stars, making it look extremely magnificent.

With a wave of his hand, Adris vanished from the sky, and the night sky returned to daylight.

This time, Hercules' resurrection was extremely slow.

Rin Tohsaka completely forgot about teasing Illya in her arms and stared blankly at Adris, who had transformed into a demon king, her face full of astonishment.

"This is no longer a battle, it's just a performance."

Moreover, the abilities Archer just used—the Reality Marble, the Ice Giant, the slime from fantasy novels, and large-scale astrological magic—are all clearly from different systems of power.

Human energy is limited. How could one person possess such complex and incredibly powerful abilities?

If it wasn't just one person, then it would make sense.

Perhaps the person I summoned was actually Shirou Emiya from different worlds, a Servant formed by the merging of the two.

At that moment, Rin Tohsaka suddenly noticed that Illya's body was burning hot, and subconsciously looked down at her.

At this moment, Ilya was trembling all over, as if she was enduring pain.

"What's wrong with you? I didn't do anything to you." Rin Tohsaka asked cautiously.

"It has nothing to do with Rin; it's my own problem."

"Is it because the mana consumption is too high? Those resurrection-type Noble Phantasms must consume a lot of mana, right?"

Ilya didn't reply. She crossed her arms, enduring the pain in her body and clenching her teeth to avoid accidentally crying out.

Just as Zheng Yi was leisurely watching the resurrected Hercules, Idris noticed the situation on their side and immediately walked over quickly.

“I see. Since you weren’t summoned in Fuyuki City, you’re bearing almost all of Heracles’ magical power yourself, rather than the Greater Grail.”

Adris sighed softly and reached out to ruffle Ilya's hair.

At first it was fine, but as Hercules died more often, his magic consumption increased, and the speed at which magic was drawn from him also increased.

This situation—

"It must hurt a lot, right?"

Adris emitted a green light from his hands in an attempt to heal Ilya's body.

Both the Demon King and the Mizukage possess healing abilities; the former uses magic, while the latter uses ninjutsu.

But since it's not a specialized healing profession, it's more like they know how to use it, at most they can help relieve her pain, but it's impossible to cure her.

"No, don't touch me!" Ilya managed to squeeze out a sentence.

In the distance, Hercules, who was not yet fully resurrected, walked over step by step.

Each step leaves a deep footprint on the ground.

"Sigh... Mimicry—Emiya Shirou."

Adris instantly transformed into Shirou Emiya and said with a smile:

"You should be able to accept this appearance, right?"

Of course, since he had never actually met Emiya Shirou, the appearance he was mimicking was his past self, except that he had changed his hair color to red.

"Who are you?" Ilya asked, enunciating each word clearly.

"I am the Servant summoned by Rin, the final version of Shirou after multiple Shirou Emiya worlds have merged into one. This appearance is probably the Shirou Emiya of this world."

"Shirou?"

"Your body is about to give out. If you continue fighting, your life will soon be drained away along with your magic. So, let Hercules stop. Let's end it here."

"I can...continue. I don't need the enemy's sympathy."

"I am not your enemy."

If it were Shirou Emiya or Archer here, they would probably have a lot to say to her.

Unfortunately, although Adris has memories of Red A, he is not actually Red A.

In the distant memory of Red A—

"Kiritsugu never mentioned you, but I learned from other sources that he has another daughter."

“I have no intention of speaking up for him. Although there are many reasons, it is a fact that he abandoned you.”

"However, at the end of his life, you were not by his side, which was his greatest regret."

"From now on, let's return to the Emiya family and live together with me in this world."

A hint of confusion flashed in Ilya's eyes. She turned to look at Hercules and said softly:

"Stop, Berserker."

"Big brother, where is Shirou? I want to see him."

“He’s probably inside my body,” Adris mused. “He’ll be back once the Holy Grail War is over.”

Chapter 105, Section 106: I'm Not an Immature Woman

"Shirou, you're back!"

At the Emiya residence, Fujimura Taiga saw Emiya Shirou walk in from outside with Tohsaka Rin and Matou Sakura, and immediately rushed over.

She looked worried, but quickly realized her role as guardian, so she put on a stern face and deliberately acted angry.

"Shirou, where did you go last night? Why are you only coming home now?"

Seeing this, Adris, who was still in Shirou Emiya's form, sighed inwardly and thought to himself:

You shouldn't have agreed to Matou Sakura's request.

Not long ago, Matou Sakura said that the Holy Grail War would be difficult to end in a day, and hoped that he could impersonate Emiya Shirou to put Fujimura Taiga at ease.

After a moment's thought, Adris agreed.

After all, Shirou Emiya is very likely stuck in the White Mist Space and can't get out, so impersonating him to reassure his family is also his duty.

However, doing something he wasn't used to made him quite uncomfortable.

"Sorry, Sister Teng. You'll have to ask Rin about that. She suddenly brought me to her house last night."

"Is that so, Tohsaka-san?"

Fujimura Taiga turned to look at Tohsaka Rin, seemingly making an angry expression to show his authority as a teacher.

Rin Tohsaka remained silent, glancing at Adris without revealing her thoughts:

While it's true, please don't use such misleading language.

"I'm so sorry, Fujimura-sensei. Actually... my water heater broke down last night, so I couldn't take a shower and I urgently called Emiya over."

"After it was fixed, since it was already very late, I let him stay at my house for the night."

"It sounds like an excuse you just made up on the spot to brush me off?" Fujimura Taiga looked at the two of them suspiciously. "If that's the case, why did you come to see Shirou this morning?"

At this point, Fujimura Taiga suddenly revealed a smug smile, his eyes seeming to say:

See? I told you so. Your weakness has been exposed.

Rin Tohsaka was speechless. She clenched her fists, hesitated for a few seconds, activated a suggestion spell, and spoke again:

"Fujimura-sensei, the reason I came to find Shirou was to... test his family and see if they knew where he went last night."

After using suggestive magic, Rin Tohsaka's words became exceptionally persuasive.

Fujimura Taiga seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly became strange as he looked back and forth between the two of them.

After a long silence, he said softly:
