Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

However----

"die----!!!!"

Lijielit made a murderous sound and stomped her foot hard on the ground. The ground beneath her feet instantly shattered like a spider web.

Chapter 1017: The Holy Grail Taken Away

Lijielit used the powerful thrust brought by her strength and shot like a missile straight towards Sasaki Kojiro who was flying backwards.

The long axe filled with violent magic power was swung out fiercely.

It caused a terrible gas explosion, which turned into a terrifying energy storm and fell heavily on Kojiro Sasaki.

In a hurry, Kojiro Sasaki, who had just stabilized his body, could only raise the long sword in his hand again and block in front of himself.

Whether it was the broken weapon or the injuries on his body, at this moment, they greatly hindered him from exerting his strength.

"boom----!"

Lijielit's merciless blow directly caused a wave of air to shake Sasaki Kojiro's hands that were tightly grasping the long sword.

However, being injured does not mean that Kojiro Sasaki has no chance to fight back.

When he was chopped again, Sasaki Kojiro took advantage of the powerful force, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, he spun around, and the long sword in his hand turned into a silver phantom, and chopped towards Lijelite who had just swung the attack at lightning speed.

But he forgot that he was not facing just Lijelite.

“Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish—!!!!!!”

Countless magic bullet curses came like a rain curtain, and countless silver threads rose from below.

If he ignored his own safety and attacked Lijelite directly, he would be instantly penetrated by Sera's attacks.

In desperation, Kojiro Sasaki could only twist the long sword in his hand again to resist the magic bullets that were coming like a storm.

If he had not been injured, Kojiro Sasaki would have been able to protect himself from the simultaneous attacks from both sides and find the right gap to counterattack.

But now he is injured.

Before they were injured, Sera and Lijelite could cooperate in attack and be on par with him. After they were injured, Sera and Lijelite were especially furious because of their brother Illya.

Kojiro Sasaki instantly fell into a disadvantage.

Almost at the moment when Sasaki Kojiro deflected the incoming magic bullets, a whirlpool of gorgeous magic power erupted from Lijelite's body, and the long axe in her hand swung out again and again.

“Bang—bang—bang—bang—bang!”

The long axe with scarlet patterns and the broken long sword collided with each other again and again, causing a series of deafening muffled sounds.

"Crack——!"

The next moment, the sound of a weapon breaking was heard in this space.

"Pfft——!"

What followed was a cutting sound, and a large amount of crimson liquid splashed into the air.

Because of this powerful force, Kojiro Sasaki was half-kneeling on the ground.

"Ah--!"

Kojiro Sasaki lowered his head and forced a laugh. A closer look revealed a huge wound on his side that ran diagonally from his shoulder.

“Finally it’s here—!”

With these words, Sasaki Kojiro turned into stars and disappeared on the spot, leaving behind only a card with a skull mask and a dagger in hand, which was filled with a strange pattern.

"Buzz!"

At the moment when Sasaki Kojiro disappeared, a boat of light made of gold and emeralds that could fly in the sky appeared in the sky.

Countless golden ripples also appeared from the boat of light at the same time, and weapons slowly emerged as if floating up from the water.

They were like a bow with a full string, with the tip pointed in the direction of Lijelite and Sera in front of them.

“Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish!!!!!!!!!!”

The next second, those ancient-looking treasures made sharp sounds of breaking through the air like arrows and rushed out madly.

"Trace on"

At this moment, from somewhere on the street behind Lijelite and Sera, countless swords and countless treasures exactly the same as those in the doors turned into silver beams of light and rushed forward.

In the blink of an eye, the rain of treasures from the sky and the earth met in mid-air, like a needle against a wheat spike, slamming into each other mercilessly.

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

It was clearly a collision of steel against steel weapons, but the treasures from the sky and the earth that were released towards each other were like bombs ready to explode at any moment, and at the moment of collision, a low and loud explosion sounded, echoing in the sky.

The flames sparked by the collision spread out like a wave of flame, illuminating the entire sky red.

The temperature in the air also soared suddenly, causing the atmosphere to distort.

"Beatrice! Take Julian and the Holy Grail away!!!"

Before Lijelite and Sera below could react, the originally clear sky was instantly covered by dark clouds following the shout.

"Boom--!"

A loud thunder roared from mid-air, and lightning as thick as a pen instantly fell beside Illya, causing the earth to tremble uncontrollably.

"Damn it! Who on earth could have taken Lord Julian!"

A red-haired girl with golden eyes, wearing plush and slightly tattered clothes, with an extremely thick right arm and a forehead stone, had murderous eyes and an extremely violent aura. She stared at the people in front of her.

However, before Beatrice could make any move, a beam of golden light rose from the ground and instantly swallowed up the boat of light made of gold and emerald in the sky.

Immediately, an explosion that no one could ignore rose from the sky, bringing an extremely strong impact force, causing Sera and Lijelite who were standing on the ground to lower their bodies.

The light boat made of gold and emeralds fell heavily to the ground with flames at the tail.

A diamond-shaped mirror appeared beside Beatrice when the Boat of Light was swallowed up, and Angelica walked out of it covered in dust.

Blood even flowed directly from the corner of her mouth, and she looked in a miserable state.

"Take the Holy Grail and go!!!"

As she spoke, several golden ripples appeared around Angelica and shot towards Sera and Lijelite who were standing nearby.

She immediately picked up Julian, who was lying unconscious on the ground and breathing very weakly, and ran towards the prismatic mirror that had unfolded again at the side in a very embarrassed manner.

Seeing Beatrice picking up Illya like a chicken, Sera and Lijelite wanted to step forward to stop her, but were stopped by the Noble Phantasm shot out by Angelica. They could only watch them take Illya away.

Countless sword arrows also poured down from the sky towards Beatrice and Angelica at an extremely terrifying speed.

“Bang bang bang bang bang bang!!!!”

Angelica also waved her hand, and the golden ripples behind her immediately changed direction.

Explosions occurred one after another in mid-air.

Immediately, he stepped into the diamond-shaped mirror and disappeared with Beatrice.

The rain of swords that fell from the sky pierced through those treasures and struck the earth directly.

Chapter 1018 Role Exchange

Fuyuki City, Emiya residence.

The environment here is not as elegant as it was at the beginning. The courtyard and the streets are full of potholes, as if they had been hit by rocks falling from high altitudes.

While Emiya Shirou and Emiya Kiritsugu were confronting each other, battles broke out in three places almost simultaneously.

The Emiya residence was also the site of a firefight between the Endsworth family and the others.

Fortunately, BB had already set up a defensive spell at the Emiya residence, so the house was generally not damaged. With a little repair, it would not be possible to see the impact it had suffered previously.

However, the bumpy ground around it would probably cost a considerable amount of money to restore it to its original state.

At this time, almost everyone involved in the incident came to the living room.

Luvia, Toosaka Rin was sitting on the tatami with bandages on her body, her hands slightly closed, her clenched fists shaking uncontrollably, not because of fear, but because of anger.

Irisviel and Sera were holding the hot tea in their hands with tired faces, their eyes filled with worry.

Brother Illya is still in a coma, lying in one of the rooms in the Emiya house.

Due to her own reasons, Lijielit fell into a weak state after the battle and was now also lying in the guest room to rest.

Miyu bit her lips, her face full of self-blame and worry. She felt very uncomfortable and wanted to leave at the next second.

Sakura stayed quietly beside Miyu, holding her hand tightly and soothing her emotions.

BB didn't seem to be affected by the emotions of the people in the living room at all. A paintbrush appeared in his hand and he was painting something on the cup with a smile on his face. He seemed very satisfied with his work.

"Squeak—!"

The door was gently pushed open, and Emiya Shirou appeared in front of everyone with a very serious expression.

"How's Shirou doing?"

Irisviel stared at Shirou Emiya and spoke first. Among all the people present, Illya's brother was the most seriously injured and was almost dying.

If Sera hadn't used healing magic to barely keep him alive, and if Shirou Emiya hadn't been nearby, it would probably not be as simple as falling into a coma.

"Ying has been checked out. There's nothing serious. She'll wake up in a while."

Hearing this, Emiya Shirou nodded slightly, indicating that Irisviel didn't need to worry.

The Sakura that Emiya Shirou mentioned is of course not the Sakura next to Miyu, but the white-haired Sakura.

"Is that so?"

It seemed that Shirou Emiya's words were very contagious, or maybe she trusted that electronic life form very much. Irisviel sighed slightly and put her heart at ease for the time being.

"I'm sorry! It's all because of me! If it weren't for me! Illya and Xiao Hei wouldn't have been targeted and taken away by the Endsworth family, and brother Illya wouldn't be on the verge of death!"

Suddenly, as if she couldn't hold it in any longer, Miyu stood up abruptly and bowed in the direction of Irisviel, tears dripping from the corners of her eyes uncontrollably.

"Miyu——"

Seeing Miyu with such an expression, Irisviel sighed, then turned around and spoke softly.

"You are Illya's friend, and you haven't hidden anything from her. Illya is still willing to help you after knowing everything. This is her choice, and I won't blame you."

She might feel a little regretful, but this was the decision Illya made after knowing everything, and Irisviel would never deny it.

She stood firmly behind her daughter.

"Besides, now is not the time to blame ourselves. As friends of Illya and Xiao Hei, what we need to do now is to find a way to get Illya and Xiao Hei back!"

Toosaka Rin also cried out in fear. No matter how much she blamed herself, Illya and Kuro would not come back. What's more, helping Miyu was the decision of all of them, and they had also thought about the worst outcome - death.

Since we already know that the worst outcome is death but we are still willing to help Miyu, why should we give up now that the worst outcome has not yet been achieved?

"Everyone!"

"Cheer up, Miyu! You're Illya and Kuro's friend! They're still waiting for you to rescue them!"

Luvia also spoke up. She couldn't stand seeing Miyu looking so decadent. She preferred Miyu's extremely confident attitude when facing the enemy.

Although there are defensive spells set up by BB in the Emiya residence, it is wishful thinking to want to resist Toosaka Rin who holds the Ishtar Class Card and Toosaka Tokiomi who holds the Karna.

Although Toosaka Rin and Luvia happened to come to Emiya Shirou to defraud him of some perfect gems when Xiao Hei was staying at Emiya's house, they were still no match for the two even with the combined efforts of the three of them.

In the end, Xiao Hei was knocked unconscious by Ishtar and taken away.

At the beach, Angelica and Beatrice continued to struggle with BB, trying to break through the defense and snatch Miyu away, but they were always restrained by her.

They even fell into a disadvantage at one point, but then they received a message from the familiar sent by Sasaki Kojiro, who learned about Darius's situation and immediately retreated.

On Illya's side, Shirou Emiya always thought that the other party's purpose was to take Miyu away and delay him, but BB was obviously able to deal with the two people directly, so Shirou Emiya did not rush towards Miyu the moment he dealt with Emiya Kiritsugu.

She never expected that the Endsworth family's target wasn't just Miyu, but also Kuro and Illya.

"But why would the Endsworth family attack Illya and Xiao Hei?"

Toosaka Rin touched her chin, her face full of questions. She didn't understand why the Endsworth family attacked Illya and Xiao Kuro. Isn't the Holy Grail Miyu?

"Because, Illya and Kuro are also the Holy Grail—"

Hearing what Toosaka Rin said, Irisviel also smiled bitterly. When she heard about Miyu's past, she already understood why the Endsworth family kidnapped Illya and Xiaohei.

“The Holy Grail!?”
