The Epic Story of the Heroic Spirit of Emiya Giant Warrior

#178 - Section 178

Both fists and feet slammed into each other.

At the same time, the black giant axe on the right and the serpentine sword clashed fiercely in the air.

The material of that sword was good, but the blacksmith's skill was terrible. The overall quality was not even as good as the swords that Shirou Emiya casually forged.

In the next moment, two figures flew backward in opposite directions.

On the other side, Argana rolled on the ground a few times, but still stood up steadily.

"Cracked… at least two, probably."

Argana said without joy or anger, "Are you really… not Lv.6?"

Swords were drawn, and the previously lowered magic sword was once again raised high, filled with vigilance.

However, the reaction of the Kali Familia was greatly beyond their expectations. Seeing Argana rush out, all the female warriors from Bache onward had no intention of helping her. Instead, they watched the battle with great interest.

Although Argana seemed like a crazy woman lacking reason and self-control, she still obeyed the goddess's orders.

Argana's movements paused slightly. She realized the teenager's implication—that if they had continued fighting just now, she would have been the one most likely to be defeated.

"You're the same, aren't you… just, a little better than me…"

Argana spoke, slowly saying.

But because he had fought against two Lv.5 Amazons before, his adaptation to power was obviously better than Argana's.

Bell Cranell glanced at her fellow tribeswoman, wanting to say something but stopped, ultimately choosing not to interrupt.

Unless he completely defeated her.

Shirou Emiya: "Okay, if I win, you're not allowed to attack Tiona and Tione again in the future."

"Absolutely not!"

Before Shirou could speak, Riveria and the others from the Loki Familia had already coldly refused.

Argana didn't seem to care. She then continued, "I still accept your conditions… anyway, I'm no longer interested in Tiona."

Chapter 265: Shirou Emiya's One-on-Four Special Training.

"Shirou, isn't it a bit too impulsive to agree to a duel with Argana just like that?"

At this moment, it was late at night, the time had already reached two or three in the morning, but due to what happened tonight, everyone was in no mood to sleep.

Shirou was silent for a moment and didn't directly answer Tiona's question. Instead, he asked, "How is Tione's condition?"

Her answer made Aiz, Alicia, and the others present couldn't help but look sideways.

The Amazon girl's standard for judging "serious injury" was obviously different from ordinary people, even making people feel a little horrified. But in fact, for the first-tier adventurers of the Amazon tribe, such injuries were indeed not a big problem.

The first-tier powerhouses, although they seemed no different from ordinary humans on the outside, they had already surpassed the life level of ordinary humans, and their physical endurance and recovery ability far exceeded ordinary people.

He paused for a moment, his gaze slightly sinking, "Even, with her level of madness, she might do something extreme."

A Lv.6 powerhouse with an extreme personality, such a figure was a troublesome existence even for a powerful Loki Familia. If not handled properly, it could lead to uncontrollable consequences.

The gap between Lv.5 and Lv.6 was equally obvious, just like how Tione was easily suppressed.

According to the Kali Familia's and Argana's style, no one else would participate in her battle. Argana relied solely on her own strength to crush Tione.

Shirou said.

Although it felt a little unfair to Finn, he had to admit that, without considering magic and skills, Argana, who had just leveled up to Lv.6, was indeed stronger in terms of power than Finn.

Recalling the teenager's past achievements—whether it was suppressing Tione when he was Lv.3, or defeating Bell Cranell and Elna after leveling up to Lv.4, or even gaining a slight advantage in the confrontation with Argana just now.

Riveria spoke.

She looked at Shirou, "Shirou, you need to undergo special training for the next few days."

In addition to this, he also needed to improve his ability values as much as possible before the battle.

Shirou pondered for a moment, then looked up at the first-tier adventurers present.

Aiz, Alicia, and Tiona, at this moment, a look of excitement gradually appeared on their faces.

"Master!"

"Shirou, leave it to me!"

Alicia followed closely, her tone filled with excitement.

The three of them invited Shirou in unison.

Angie on the side opened her mouth, seeming to want to say something, but in the end, she chose to remain silent.

At this time, Riveria spoke, breaking the silence, "Now the time is very tight. In order to give Shirou enough pressure, starting tomorrow, the three of you will go together."

Hearing Riveria's arrangement, Aiz, Alicia, and Tiona all showed surprised expressions.

"Master, fight the three of us alone?"

Riveria ignored their doubts and continued, "Well, Aiz, you can't use [Wind Spirit's Swift Run]. Alicia, don't summon [Ice Giant]. Magic is also prohibited. As for Tiona… try to use all your strength."

"Although you haven't leveled up to Lv.5 yet, your combat skills are not worse than Tiona and the others. Try your best. However, magic is still not allowed."

"That's good."

Riveria said quietly, glancing at Shirou, her eyes revealing a hint of coldness that made people feel pressured.

Many things happened last night, even almost escalating into a full-scale conflict between two upper-level factions with first-tier adventurers, so that the girls almost forgot their true purpose of coming to the port city.

Shirou's fist was blocked by Argana's left arm, while her high kick was steadily blocked by Shirou's left arm.

On this side, the outcome was already clear—the serpentine sword shattered from the middle, completely unable to withstand Shirou's great axe.

Argana threw down the serpentine sword, and enduring the slamming great axe, she unleashed a punch.

Shirou's feet shattered the stone bricks on the ground, dragging out a long trail.

One of Shirou's arms was slightly red and swollen, while Argana clutched her ribs.

Her common language was not very fluent, only slightly better than Vigne.

After Argana suddenly attacked, the Loki Familia adventurers also reacted quickly.

Riveria coldly said, "Kali Familia, do you intend to start a war with us?"

It seemed that within the Kali Familia, the concept of "unity" simply did not exist.

"Alright, Argana, come back."

Goddess Kali said lazily.

The female warrior took a deep breath and slowly retreated.

Just then, Shirou said, "Did you just level up? I can feel that your movements are not very coordinated."

As Shirou said, Argana had just leveled up to Lv.6, not even two days ago.

Although her strength had greatly increased, her body and spirit had not yet fully adapted to this enormous change.

Shirou had just leveled up to Lv.4, and his situation was similar to hers, not yet adjusted to the best state.

Argana stared into Shirou's eyes: "Seven days later, fight me again."

Shirou looked at her; Argana's eyes were clearly saying that whether he agreed or not, she would continue to pester him.

Argana chuckled, a hint of provocation flashing in her eyes: "No problem… Then, if I win, I want to… have children with you."

Shirou: "That's not going to happen."

"Whatever…"

"Seven days later, I look forward to our duel."

Her eyes burned with fighting spirit, like a beast eyeing its prey, revealing its sharpness.

With that, Argana turned and left, without any hesitation. Seeing that there would be no more fighting, the other female warriors of the Kali Familia also dispersed one by one.

Tiona asked with some concern.

Riveria and Loki had already sent the others back to their rooms. Now, in the tavern's hall, besides Shirou, only the first-tier adventurers and Vice-Captain Anki of the second team remained.

Tiona sighed and nodded in response: "Yeah, it's okay. Although at least half of her bones are broken, some of her internal organs are dislocated, and there's also a lot of blood loss… In short, not a particularly serious injury."

Loki only frowned when she heard this, but didn't have any special reaction.

In fact, the two Amazonian female warriors who were defeated by Shirou were also, on the surface, looking miserable, but they only needed some healing potions and a good night's sleep, and they could still be lively and vigorous the next day.

"That's good."

Shirou nodded slightly, then continued, "As for the Kali Familia… that female warrior, should be called Argana, right? Looking at her personality, if I don't accept her challenge, I'm afraid things won't end so easily."

"But, that person is Lv.6…"

Alicia said, speaking with some worry.

Her voice carried a bit of concern. After all, Shirou's current level was only Lv.4, and generally speaking, there was a huge gap between Lv.4 and Lv.5, which was called the "first tier."

"Her strength is indeed very strong. Compared to the adventurers of the Loki Familia, she should be second only to Grise."

"However…"

Shirou took a light breath: "I should be able to win."

His voice was very calm, without any fluctuations, as if he was just stating an objective fact.

This calmness and composure naturally gave people a sense of trust for no reason.

This man, when facing the Amazonians, displayed an astonishing power.

Even, so strong that the women were somewhat suspicious, what kind of skills did he have.

"In any case, since I've already agreed, I can only face it."

Now, what Shirou needed most urgently was to adapt to his enhanced abilities after leveling up through high-intensity battles.

Argana's agreement with him was in seven days. During this time, the newly leveled-up Amazonian female warrior also needed to do the same thing: adapt to her new power and further improve her own abilities.

Ais spoke first, her eyes revealing anticipation.

"Shirou-kun, let's train together!"

Tiona waved her fist excitedly.

Shirou looked at them, a helpless smile on his face.

She felt a little lost in her heart. As an adventurer stuck at Lv.4, she understood that she probably couldn't serve as the boy's sparring partner anymore.

The Elf Princess's mood was particularly complicated, because as a mage, she was not suitable as Shirou's opponent for training.

"Eh?"

Tiona widened her eyes.

"Together?"

Alicia was also stunned for a moment.

Ais asked in disbelief.

Hearing this, Tiona pouted with a aggrieved expression: "I feel like I'm being isolated because I can't use magic."

Riveria looked at the cat-person girl: "Anki, you also join the training."

"Eh? Can I also?"

Anki was stunned, raised her head, her eyes carrying a hint of surprise and unease.

Anki: "Yes!"

"So, it's four against one."
