Jobless Reincarnation: Emiya the Great Hero Must Show His True Skills

This is no longer a matter of willpower; it could even be described as arrogance taken to the extreme, reduced to a mere concept...

"This is really..."

Shirou watched as Alice, overwhelmed with anxiety, tore many of the dolls in the room to pieces, yet still stubbornly refused to leave the room, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

He became increasingly aware of just how difficult it was to win over this young lady.

Under normal circumstances, no matter what you do, it's impossible for the other party to approve of it.

But given the current situation, he really had no other choice but to force the other party to accept him, so he could only do his best!

Shirou silently made up his mind and showed his determination in his actions, intending to push open the window and go in to meet Alice.

However, before he could begin his actions, Shirou suddenly noticed that Alice's door had been pushed open.

A middle-aged butler walked in from outside.

Shirou remembered the other person's identity; he seemed to be the butler of the Boreas family, named Thomas.

This butler didn't have much authority in the Boreas family, and it seemed he wasn't qualified to personally meet Alice, the eldest daughter of the Boreas family.

However, the other party did indeed appear here.

Shirou had no doubts and thought that Philip might have relayed some orders.

Indeed, it seemed to be true. After hearing a few words from the butler, Alice's expression suddenly brightened, and she waved her hands excitedly in celebration before leaving the room with the butler.

"This……"

Seeing the scene in the distance, Shirou could not hear the specific dialogue, but he could tell something from the butler's lip reading and Alice's attitude.

Thomas, the butler, seemed to have informed Alice that Philip was going to expel her from the Boreas family and invited her to witness it.

"Am I going to be kicked out?"

Shirou was unable to accept it for a moment. He never expected that Philip would lose patience before his plan could even be implemented.

But Shirou soon felt a little confused.

The person who sent her to be Alice's tutor was actually the head of the Bereas family, Sauros; he was the source of everything.

Could Philip alone defy Sauros's opinion?

No, that's impossible, isn't it?

Recalling Shoros's even more stubborn and opinionated manner than Alice's, Shirou truly found it hard to imagine that the thunderous and fierce old man would allow Philip to act on his own.

But the butler, Thomas, was indeed there...

Hesitantly, Shirou couldn't shake off the feeling of unease in his heart, and even at a certain risk, he tried his best to catch up with Thomas and Alice.

To conserve his energy, Shirou first deactivated the Dream Summoning state and followed behind the two in a normal manner.

With his superior sword god-style abilities and Eagle Eyes, which are at the level of Clairvoyance, Shirou was able to easily track Thomas and Alice.

It was evening.

The setting sun painted the road red.

He followed the two men to the outside of the mansion, and Thomas seemed to have deliberately chosen a side path that wasn't the main entrance to reach the outer perimeter of Bereas Castle.

Once on the road, Thomas told Alice to wait where she was, while secretly waving in a certain direction.

"!!"

In the next instant, before Alice could even react, several burly men dressed in black suddenly sprang out of the shadows, covered her mouth and nose with their hands, knocked her unconscious with a special cloth bag, and then threw her directly into a sack.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!!"

At the same time, as if receiving a signal, a carriage came from a distance. Several men in black took Alice into the carriage without thinking, leaving only the steward Thomas to wait in place. They pretended that nothing had happened and swayed towards Bereas Castle.

"..."

Shirou witnessed the entire event from the shadows.

He realized almost without thinking that this was a kidnapping—the butler Thomas, along with a group of outsiders, had abducted Alice.

At this moment, Shirou only has two choices.

One option is to return to the Boreas family and expose the butler's conspiracy, but in that case, Alice, who was taken away, would be nowhere to be found, or at least very difficult to track down.

Secondly, we must immediately activate the power of the Heroic Spirits and go to rescue Alice.

Although Shirou couldn't possibly catch up with the kidnappers on his own, things would be different once he used the Heroic Spirit Card.

"It seems there is no other choice."

Shirou exhaled. Without any further thought, he took out the Heroic Spirit card from his pocket and decisively launched a Dream Summon!

"Snapped!"

As an astonishing torrent of magical energy swept across the scene, Shirou reappeared as the Heroic Spirit Emiya. He dared not waste a single moment and began to run wildly toward the carriage in the distance, determined not to let the carriage that had kidnapped Iris disappear from his sight!

Chapter 101 Alice Recognizes Reality

When Alice woke up, she found herself in a filthy warehouse.

Sunlight streamed in through the window with iron bars.

My body ached all over, and my hands and feet were tied up with ropes.

what happened?

Faced with this situation that was completely beyond her comprehension, the eldest daughter of the Boreas family immediately showed signs of confusion.

In her memory, she only remembered the butler Thomas coming to her and saying that her father, Philip, had agreed to kick the guy named Shirou out of the Grellatt family.

Alice was undoubtedly very happy, even excited, and happily followed Thomas to find her father.

So happy, she even forgot that Thomas was leading her along a less-traveled path.

Of course, even if she noticed the problem, Alice wouldn't have any doubts, because having grown up in the Boreas family with a privileged upbringing, she simply didn't think that someone as noble as her could encounter any danger.

Moreover, Philip's decision to drive Shirou away was tantamount to going against her grandfather Shoros's wishes, a risk that even Alice could understand.

She knew better than anyone how ruthless her grandfather was.

In a sense, the only person Alice, who fears nothing in the world, is her grandfather, Sauros.

Therefore, she had no doubt about Thomas's purpose in taking her away from the Boreas family. She thought that he took her away simply because it was not good to talk about driving Shirou away within the family, and he was afraid that Sauros would find out. He wanted to go to a place where no one could see or hear him to have a secret discussion.

Because of this naive idea, when Alice left the Boreas family, even when several unfamiliar figures appeared in the shadows, she did not become obviously alert. It was not until the man covered her mouth and nose with a rag smeared with anesthetic that Alice finally realized something was wrong and began to struggle.

However, it was all too late.

When Alice came to her senses, she had already passed out and was bound hand and foot, and dumped in this abandoned warehouse.

"Ugh..."

The ropes binding their hands and feet were tied very tightly.

The person who tied her up was clearly a very experienced repeat offender.

No matter how much Alice struggled, she couldn't free herself from the ropes. She could only thrash around on the ground like a catfish, but she still couldn't move normally. She could only fall to the ground in a caterpillar-like position.

"How is this going!"

Alice was undoubtedly unable to accept being in such a humiliating situation. She had always been unwilling to suffer any injustice, let alone be captured in such a humiliating manner. She wanted nothing more than to twist the mastermind's head off and began to shout and scream in anger.

"Who did this?! Are you kidding me?! Do you even know who I am?! Let me go right now!"

She yelled at an enormous volume, so loud that the sound echoed throughout the room.

The reason she was so uninhibited was that she was simply imitating her grandfather, Sauros. Although Sauros was the only person she was afraid of, he was also the object of her heartfelt faith and even worship. While Sauros certainly had his merits, he also had countless flaws.

Children imitate, especially bad behavior.

The fact that Alice has become like this is entirely due to the actions of Sholos.

"What's all the noise about, you brat!"

The moment Alice's angry roar rang out, a man reeking of alcohol walked in from outside the warehouse.

He was dressed in shabby clothes, reeked of stench, and was bald with an unshaven beard.

If this were an animation, he would be a classic image of a petty thug.

Alice, undoubtedly unable to accept such an ugly creature appearing before her, angrily exclaimed, "What! You stink! Don't come near me! You stink! Do you know who I am?! If you don't let me go, Kyrie Irvine will come and chop you into... ugh!"

Alice hadn't finished speaking.

"boom!"

With a sound that looked like it would hurt, the red-haired girl was kicked away by the man. She floated in mid-air and then crashed hard into the wall.

"Cough!!!"

Alice's scream rang out.

The drunken man walked over without any mercy, sneering, "Tch, damn it! What's with the arrogance? I know you're that lord's grandson! But do you think you're still the lord's grandson? No, you're not. You're just a prisoner, a commodity about to become a slave! If it weren't for some important person specifically requesting you, I would have violated you right now, believe it or not!"

"you……"

Alice was surprised that the man actually dared to make a move, and her original arrogant attitude immediately wavered. However, her long-cultivated habit made her unwilling to stop staring.

Seeing that the girl still looked fierce at him, the man mercilessly kicked the young lady, who was unable to move because her hands were tied behind her back.

"boom!"

"Snapped!"

"boom!"

A near-brutal outburst took place in the room.

Even after her brief outburst of rage, Alice was overcome with fear and pain, uttering a pitiful plea: "It hurts...it hurts so much...stop...no...no...please stop..."

However, her pleas for mercy had no effect whatsoever.

The man was clearly a professional kidnapper. He knew what kind of people slaves were and would use all sorts of cruel methods to torture his slaves to the point that they dared not resist at all.

In a sense, this can also be considered educating the products to prevent these potentially valuable products from doing things that harm buyers.

Of course, the reason he was so violent right now was partly because Alice's attitude was too arrogant, and the man was already drunk and emotionally unstable, almost beating Alice to death.

"Pooh!"

After beating him for a while, the man finally stopped.

He spat on Alice, but ultimately didn't dare to lay a finger on the important person's merchandise, and turned to leave the room.

Outside the warehouse, his accomplice saw him return and sneered, "Calm down now? I'd heard he was a rabid dog, but I didn't expect him to be so arrogant."

"No matter how arrogant she is, she's still just a little girl. She'll cry if she gets hit. I really want to know if she'll cry when she gets into a fight, hahaha."

"That has nothing to do with us. This is the prey that the minister specifically requested. We can only wait until the minister has finished enjoying it and is tired of it, and then see if he is willing to give it to us."

"Yes."

"And you'd better not use such heavy-handed methods again. If the product is damaged beyond repair, it will lower the price."

"At worst, we can find a magician to heal her with healing magic."

"..."

The kidnappers were drinking and chatting outside, treating Alice inside as if she were a slave or a commodity.

They made no attempt to conceal their conversation, which naturally reached Alice's ears.

Only at this moment did Alice finally realize the reality of the situation and recognize the fact that she, as the young lady of Boreas, had been kidnapped.

"Damn it, I will never let you get away with this. I'm going to tell my grandfather."

Alice trembled as she uttered a feeble curse.

She knew that in her current situation, she couldn't possibly do anything to the men outside.

If nothing unexpected happens, she might even be sold off by these guys and used as a plaything by some unknown person.

The thought of such a thing made Alice want to bite her tongue and kill herself on the spot, but she couldn't muster the courage.

"..."

While Alice was in despair, Shirou was hiding in a big tree outside the warehouse, observing the situation.

He followed the group of kidnappers and discovered their hideout, but instead of immediately storming in and killing them all, he patiently observed from the outside.

The reason for this was that he realized the kidnapping was both an accident and an opportunity.
