I am the protagonist

"Then Kiritsugu, get up quickly."

"Yes, I'll get up right away."

Kiritsugu Emiya, the man who loves his daughter, wishes to give her the most beautiful things in the world.

Even though he couldn't be gentle to anyone else, he was only truly gentle when he was with his daughter.

After putting on his clothes, Kiritsugu Emiya and his daughter left the castle and began their father-daughter game.

Saber stood at the second-floor window, watching the father and daughter playing outside.

"Kiritsugu seems quite pleased; he doesn't look as cold and ruthless as he did yesterday."

Irisviel also saw Kiritsugu and Illya playing games in the snow.

"Kiritsugu is not actually a cold-hearted person."

"Actually, Kiritsugu isn't the cold-blooded person you imagine. It's just that because of certain things... this is also Kiritsugu's wish to participate in the Holy Grail War."

Because you reject all the beauty in the world, you are more gentle than anyone else.

Irisviel knew that many people would not understand this statement.

Kiritsugu may be cold-blooded, or even ruthless.

But Kiritsugu was indeed the gentlest person in the world.

Suddenly, something strange happened.

"boom!"

The entire barrier of Einzbern's castle was forcibly breached from the outside.

This directly caused the fortress-like barrier surrounding Einzbern to completely collapse due to this opening.

A powerful force swept through the entire Einzbern region.

Those inside Eindzbern Castle were the most directly impacted.

"Well!"

"Irisviel!"

Saber quickly helped Irisviel up after she fell.

"Don't worry about me! Go find Kiritsugu! He's still outside!"

"I understand. Irisviel, take good care of yourself."

Saber donned her armor and jumped out of the window.

Chapter 126 Why did you complete the Third Law!?

The impact just now blew Kiritsugu Emiya aside by the wind pressure. He may not have been physically injured, but he lost sight of his daughter.

"Kiritsugu, are you alright?"

"Ilya! Go to Ilya's side quickly!"

"!?"

"Kiritsugu, step back!"

Just as Saber was about to go forward to find Illya, she sensed the presence of a Heroic Spirit on the other side.

【Damn! 】

Kiritsugu Emiya also clearly saw a figure appear in the snowstorm, and that figure was standing next to his daughter at that moment.

What's needed in this situation is to stay calm.

But how could TND remain calm when he saw his daughter in danger?

This attack on Einzbern attracted the attention of not only a few people, but also the elderly people in Einzbern.

"Who is causing trouble in the Inzbern family?"

The old man's face was extremely grim. In hundreds of years, no one had ever dared to so brazenly shatter the barrier surrounding Einzbern. This was a slap in the face to the entire magic world, and the old man could not tolerate such an act.

Einzbern's long-cherished wish was what he sought.

But that doesn’t mean he can disregard Eindzbern’s reputation.

"Yubstakuhaid von Einzbern... such a life-loving old man is hiding in this place."

"It seems that coming here was definitely the right decision."

The old man frowned. This was a premeditated act; the other party had so brazenly destroyed the Einzbern barrier.

He just sounds very young.

They are even quite young.

But the old man dared not be careless at this moment. The world of magicians is a very deep place, and they might be some old monsters who pursue immortality.

"Who are you? Why have you attacked Einzbern?"

“You would also find it unacceptable to say my name, and besides, I don’t want to say my name to an old man who is about to die.”

The old man's expression darkened. He knew that no matter what their reason for coming to the Einzbern family, the current situation was irreconcilable.

"However, I can tell you the purpose."

"Because my sister was once imprisoned by the Einzbern family, my actions this time are purely for revenge."

“The old codger can go die with his ideals, and then it’s my sister’s turn to take control of everything in Einzbern.”

The old man's face darkened considerably, and the magic power he had been accumulating in his hands spread outwards, revealing a large number of puppets hidden around him.

"kill him!"

All the puppets stood in unison, weapons raised, ready to charge forward and fight at any moment.

"Wait! Ilya is still..."

"Shut up, Kiritsugu!"

The old man gave Kiritsugu no chance to speak at all.

"It's just an alchemical puppet; it can be made anytime you want."

"Wow, that's an interesting way of putting it!"

A murderous aura poured out from the wind and snow.

"!?"

Saber held his sword, his gaze fixed intently on the figure amidst the wind and snow. The indescribable killing intent emanating from him was something no ordinary person could cultivate.

That murderous aura, filled with the stench of blood, came from a powerful being who had emerged from the corpses.

"They can make it anytime... It's very interesting~ As expected, Einzbern did not disappoint me."

"What do you think, sister?"

A smaller figure slowly emerged from the snowstorm.

"!?"

Kiritsugu Emiya, who was standing there, was completely stunned.

Irisviel, who arrived later, also saw that the figure had lost all sound.

"It's been a long time, Grandpa."

"This is the first time I've heard you say something like this since I tried to kill you."

Ilya, no, it's Ilya after she grew up.

Wearing thick clothes and a snow-white hat, she was practically a younger version of Irisviel.

However, this figure is much older than the current Ilya.

“...Illyasviel!”

The old man's eyes were fixed on Ilya. He could tell from her appearance that she was Ilya, but he couldn't tell from her vital signs at all.

"Kill her!"

The puppets had no self-awareness whatsoever; under the old man's control, they collectively jumped toward Ilya, weapons in hand.

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, a torrent of weapons swept over the puppets that were jumping in mid-air.

The fragile doll was instantly reduced to shattered pieces of flesh scattered on the ground.

The wind and snow completely dissipated thanks to the weapon, and the figure hidden in the snowstorm appeared.

A boy with brown hair was standing there.

He wasn't very old; he looked like an ordinary high school student.

But the moment the old man saw the boy, he froze, his eyes fixed on the boy without looking away.

"The Third Law... the materialization of the soul..."

"Why...why did you manage to materialize the Third Law's soul!?"

The materialization of the soul, the third law, was Einzbern's long-cherished wish.

The long-cherished wish of several generations could not be fulfilled by any one generation, but it was seen in an outsider, which made the old man's eyes begin to show some resentment.

"!?"

Both Kiritsugu Emiya and Irisviel stared at the boy in shock.

The third method, Soul Materialization, is a magic that grants immortality and is considered one of the five great magics of miracles in modern times.

Theoretically, Einzbern was the one who developed it, but no one was able to perfectly implement the Third Law.

"...Truly worthy of being an elder of Einzbern, he could still see me even when I was hiding like this."

"It seems the Einzbern family is doomed."

Immense magical power, accompanied by intense killing intent, continuously erupted from that frail body.

"I never thought I would reveal my name to an old man who was about to die."

"However, since you see through me as the possessor of the Third Law, then I will specifically tell you my name. Remember my name when you go to hell."

“My name is… Emiya Shirou.”

“I am Kiritsugu Emiya’s adopted son, and Illya’s younger brother.”

A faint smile appeared on the boy's face.

Countless swords and blades appeared in mid-air.

Each sword exudes an astonishing aura, testifying to the immense power they possess.

"Well then, now we can say goodbye."

"boom!!!!!!"

Chapter 127 I'm Just an Ordinary Girl

Even the ancient magician Einzbern, who had lived for over a hundred years, could not escape the baptism of countless swords.

"Sister, are there other life forms in the Einzbern castle?"

"Hmm... I think that's all."

“I’ve lived there for over ten years. At most, I only see my grandfather often appearing in front of me, and also my mother’s clone.”

"There were also some alchemical beings who served as Einzbern's maids, but they should have all been killed just now."

The pool of blood and flesh on the ground was the blood and flesh of those alchemical beings.

They were all shot dead by Shirou before they even pounced on them.

Ilya turned her younger self's head towards herself, as if she didn't want her younger self to see this.

"All the troublemakers are dead, so it's time for a proper talk."

Saber flashed and stood in front of Kiritsugu Emiya and Irisviel.

"Ah, I'd completely forgotten about you."
