Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

Inside Nero Chaos' body is a small inherent barrier called "Beast King's Nest", which contains the factors of 666 beasts. No physical or magical damage can kill him. Therefore, to kill Nero, all 666 lives must be destroyed in an instant.

If Emiya Shirou can still use projection magic, [Tsumikari Muramasa] should say that [Ame-no-Musukuro Sword] can directly tear apart the opponent's inherent barrier and kill all the beast factors.

But unfortunately, he couldn't do that. It seemed that the only way he could obtain magic power now was to use the opponent's body fluids to possess magic power for a short period of time so that he could project.

As for transplanting magic seals, they would either be burned by flames or swallowed up by black mud.

"If it's just tied up?"

Kallen began to think about the possibility of dealing with Nero Chaos as Ayaka Sajo mentioned, but——

"Ayaka-senpai, could you please tell me in detail how you solved Nero Chaos's immortality?"

However, just when Kallen was about to continue the in-depth discussion with Ayaka, Emiya Shirou seemed to have discovered something and immediately reached out his hand to stop the two.

"Stop discussing this for a minute, the breakfast is getting cold!"

After saying that, Sajo Ayaka and Kallen looked at the breakfast in front of them. In the middle of winter, the food was indeed getting colder faster than usual.

"However, if we want to deal with the Dead Apostles, I think we can ask someone to help us!"

After dinner, Emiya Shirou spoke to the two of them as if he remembered something.

"Who?"

"Ah!"

In the Emiya residence, Jeanne, who was sitting in the living room watching the news on TV, couldn't help but sneeze.

"You're not catching a cold, are you, Jeanne?"

Sakura brought the freshly prepared breakfast to the table and looked at Jeanne with some concern.

"I'm a Servant, how could I catch a cold? I feel like Shirou must be thinking of me?"

"Ok?"

Sakura's eyes suddenly became sharp.

But the revelation remains as accurate as ever.

Chapter 1102: Busy! Everyone should be busy!

"Senior, I'm not trying to stop you, but you should remember that you have been very busy these days. If you don't fulfill Sister Fuji's request, I don't need to tell you the consequences."

In the living room of the Emiya residence, Matou Sakura, who was standing in the kitchen, was holding a soup spoon and accusing Emiya Shirou.

Although it is vacation now and there is no school, and it is the New Year, Jeanne did not deliberately pressure Emiya Shirou's studies, but precisely because it is the New Year, there are many things to be busy with.

In fact, under normal circumstances, there is nothing that Shirou Emiya needs to do at this point in time. Everything that needs to be prepared for the New Year will be done before the New Year arrives, and Shirou Emiya did not just return to Fuyuki City at the beginning of the New Year.

Instead, we basically come back after the most lively atmosphere has passed. If we calculate the time now, this holiday will be over soon.

As for why he has so much work on hand, all of this can only be explained by Sister Fuji.

Fujimura Taiga thought that since Shirou Emiya was back, they might as well celebrate the New Year again!

No matter what, Shirou Emiya is the core member of the Emiya family. Fujimura Taikawa said from the bottom of his heart that when Shirou Emiya is not at home, there is no particularly strong New Year atmosphere.

As a result, Fujimura Taiga's suggestion was unanimously praised by everyone. For example, Toosaka Rin had long been fed up with Shirou Emiya sitting back and reaping the benefits as soon as he returned, so she suggested that all the preparations be left to Shirou Emiya.

The empty room needs to be tidied up, the festive decorations throughout the Emiya house need to be reassembled, and there is also a meal for everyone to gather together before the holiday ends.

In addition, Shirou Emiya also needs to visit others and pray at the temple during this period.

In short, things are complicated, and given the current situation, Shirou Emiya does not have extra time to do other things.

Of course another reason is that other people are not allowed to help too much during the preparation period.

This was a suggestion made by Fujimura Taiga. She expressed how difficult it was to wait for Shirou Emiya to come home every day, and that taking care of the Emiya house every time would take up a considerable amount of their energy, so she decided to give Shirou Emiya this punishment in the next few days.

Although it is Sakura Matou who spends a lot of energy in taking care of the Emiya residence, for example, Sister Fuji goes to the Emiya residence every day to accompany Sakura Matou, and most of the time she eats and sleeps, and occasionally drinks a lot.

If Shirou Emiya had not gone to another world, these things should have been what Shirou Emiya did.

The reason why it felt like a lot was because they had piled up all the tasks that would normally take ten days or half a month to complete into these few days and gave them to Emiya Shirou to do.

"Ming, I understand!"

When he thought of the scene of Sister Fuji's rage, Shirou Emiya gave a bitter smile. Sakura was right. The things piled up on him now were enough to make him overwhelmed. He simply didn't have any extra time to do other things.

"I will finish what I have on hand as soon as possible."

Apart from this, he had no other way to go and could only solve the problems that piled up on him as much as possible.

If you really can't solve it, you can only give up.

Things have their priorities. It is obvious that Sajo Ayaka's situation is more serious and urgent. Although Sajo Aika should be fine, the Dead Apostles have indeed appeared in Fuyuki City and are indeed threatening the safety of Fuyuki residents.

Shirou Emiya could only be thankful that he didn't hear about any murder cases in the news today.

As for why Shirou Emiya stayed at home obediently, he was ready to finish his own work before helping Ayaka Sajo.

"Then I will go to the Cathedral Church with Jeanne to learn more about the situation."

After lunch, Sakura Matou and Jeanne had put on their clothes again and were ready to go out, their destination being the Cathedral Church.

The reason why Shirou Emiya was left at home was not only because he had a lot of unfinished things to do, but more importantly, Sakura Matou didn't want Shirou Emiya to take any more risks.

What's more, in the current situation, the magic circuits in Shirou Emiya's body have been burned out, and the projection magic cannot be used at all. Sakura Matou will naturally find ways to prevent Shirou Emiya from being drawn into any vortex again.

"be careful!"

Standing at the entrance, Emiya Shirou watched the two leave with a serious expression.

Shirou Emiya was still very confident in the strength of Sakura and Jeanne. Even if they could not defeat Nero Chaos, they would have no problem protecting themselves.

She can also take better care of Sajo Ayaka and Kallen than herself. At least when Jeanne is around, Nero Chaos won't be able to harm others so easily.

"Everyone is out and about, so the house seems quite empty for a while—"

Looking at the quiet corridor behind him, Shirou Emiya muttered softly, wondering when he seemed to have gotten used to the noisy days.

"boom--!"

The sound of a door closing gently brought Emiya Shirou's thoughts back to reality.

"There's nothing to be sentimental about right now, just finish the work at hand!"

Shirou Emiya could be said to be in a state of both relief and worry. After all, he met not only Nero Chaos, the Dead Apostle that night, but also another being with unfathomable strength.

At least when confronting me, it shouldn't be the Dead Apostle's full strength.

The partial records about the other party obtained from BB have already shown that her strength is extraordinary.

She was the only Servant who, in the Holy Grail War involving 128 Masters that Shirou Emiya had participated in, was able to tear apart the barrier of Mooncell with her own strength and leave the moon.

However, on BB's side, the opponent is a very pure Earth-side elf, and will be suppressed to a considerable extent on the moon, and may not even be able to exert its full strength.

But in this world, it is not clear.

At that time, even if the opponent was suppressed on the moon, it was still an existence that Mooncell could not directly delete, which was a rather terrifying thing in BB's view.

Of course, what is even more terrifying is that in one of the school buildings there is a girl with short black hair who has the power to kill everything in the world. She simply holds a small dagger in her hand and kills all the masters and servants in the school building where she is.

BB felt that the opponent could even kill Mooncell directly, so he used considerable means to drive the opponent away before the school building and Shirou Emiya's school building merged.

Putting aside whether Shirou Emiya could actually enter the Mooncell, these beings were almost certain to die with the power Shirou Emiya had at that time.

"Huh? Why do I always feel like someone is watching me?"

Emiya Shirou, who was tidying up an empty room, looked out the window and made a puzzled sound.

Chapter 1103 I'm Curious

Just as Shirou Emiya finished speaking, a pure white figure flashed across the courtyard and stood directly in front of Shirou Emiya.

It should be said that he was blocking the door of the room.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Shirou Emiya tightly gripped the broom in his hand, his muscles suddenly tensed, and he had already entered a combat state. As long as the opponent made an attacking move, he would pick up the broom in his hand and attack without hesitation.

It’s a pity that he is not in Musashi’s room, otherwise if he just picked up the knife, Emiya Shirou felt that he would be more confident.

"…………"

Silence spread in the air.

If the enemy does not move, I will not move.

Shirou Emiya didn't understand why the other party suddenly appeared, but after thinking about it, the most likely possibility was that the other party was seeking revenge on him.

And where Shirou Emiya's sight reached, under the warm winter sun, the pure white princess opened her pair of scarlet eyes and stared straight at Shirou Emiya.

His eyes were filled not only with hostility, but also with doubt.

"…………"

Silence continued around.

Emiya Shirou and the pure white princess just kept staring at each other, neither of them spoke first.

If the enemy does not move, I will not move.

The point is that Shirou Emiya feels that unless he doesn't care about the side effects of using the power in his body, he will not be her opponent, not to mention that the weapon in his hand is a broom.

The odds of winning seemed to have become even lower.

"…………"

However, the other party seemed very patient and still did not speak or launch an attack.

If the enemy doesn't move, I will move first.

Shirou Emiya said that he couldn't continue playing the staring game with the other party. He still had a lot of things to do. If the stalemate continued, it would be dark by then.

"Why are you here?"

Shirou Emiya asked the first question. Although the other party was hostile to him, he had not launched an attack after such a long stalemate. Moreover, from his previous perception, the other party should have been staring at him for a long time.

Suddenly he was reminded of Passion Lip, who was also hiding and spying on him quietly, but the other party had an A+ level aura to cover her up. If it weren't for Joan of Arc's revelation, he would have no way of discovering the other party.

No, what am I thinking about again? I don't know why, but ever since my magic circuits were burned, I've been thinking about all sorts of random things.

Maybe it’s the influence of black mud.

"Why didn't you become a Dead Apostle?"

The pure white princess looked up and down at Shirou Emiya again, and finally expressed her doubts.

“Everyone has their own secrets.”

However, Emiya Shirou did not answer the other party's doubts, but directly evaded them with the word "secret".

Although the situation last night seemed like the other party was a friend rather than an enemy, he was still a vampire.

Because of Vlad III, Shirou Emiya has no favorable feelings towards vampires.

If it wasn't for his fault for what happened last night, and if he didn't have the power to confront the other party head-on at this time, he probably wouldn't have talked to the other party so calmly.

He would not easily tell others, especially vampires, what was inside his body.

After all, the things in Shirou Emiya's body can be considered a "disaster". Once leaked out, it will not be of any benefit to Fuyuki City or even to the world. What if it is used by someone with ulterior motives?

What's more, the other party came with hostility, so there was no need for Emiya Shirou to explain anything to her. At most, he could use the things in his body.

After the words fell, the scene fell into silence again.

"What's going on with the [evil] in your body?"

"It's also a secret."

It was obvious that Emiya Shirou had no intention of answering any of the other party's questions.

The pure white princess stared at Shirou Emiya with a tense face. He could clearly feel the anger coming from her.

"Then what do you have that's not a secret?"

The opponent's momentum was also soaring, and his pupils began to turn golden, as if he was about to rush over and fight with Shirou Emiya in the next second.

Feeling the other party's momentum, Emiya Shirou hesitated for a moment and said tentatively: "How about we go to the living room first? Let's talk slowly?"

It wasn't because he was afraid. To be precise, the moment he saw the opponent, Emiya Shirou was already ready to fight.
