Chapter 690
Chapter 88 Determination to become stronger
But in this life, he knew that with his master, even if he was no match for those heroic spirits, he could still maintain the order of reality.
Therefore, from the perspective of someone who has not even mastered the art of kendo, it is better not to hold back the master easily. He plans to send Illya to Germany first and then quietly come back to help the master if possible.
But just as he was talking about his plans for the first half, he noticed that something was wrong with the silver-haired girl's expression.
And although his magic level is very poor, he can still feel something wrong with the magic power fluctuations emanating from the other party.
And just as he was about to say it, he seemed to be targeted by some enemy in the void.
There was no hostility, just a normal gaze but it put a lot of pressure on him.
This feeling is particularly similar to the feeling when being thrown into a jungle by the master and being watched by a tiger that had just eaten.
So...spiritualization?
"Ilia."
He just called his name and said nothing, but the look from Shirou made the silver-haired girl almost shrink into the corner.
He is obviously a stupid brother, but when he gets serious, his aura is astonishingly strong, as if he is suppressed by blood.
"Okay, I confess, I have participated in the Holy Grail War."
With a wave of his hand, the masking magic covering the command spell was dispersed, revealing its lines.
"Berserker"
A black shadow appeared in the light outside the house. After opening the door, the great hero Hercules walked in blankly. Although his eyes were full of violence and madness, he did not make any unnecessary movements while being restrained.
"This is the great hero Hercules, the servant I summoned. So brother, just let me protect you in this battle. We can definitely get the Holy Grail and make you black tea."
But Emiya Shirou didn't speak, he just stared at the dark giant.
Very strong. Extremely strong.
"Physique, will, and refined martial arts are integrated into every gesture."
Emiya Shirou's intuition saw everything he needed to see in an instant, and his body trembled a little under the suppression of such a heroic spirit.
Is this what it feels like when the Holy Grail War comes to this world?
But surprisingly, the trembling was not fear, but an illusion of eagerness to try.
It seemed that his body was telling him not to be afraid, and his hand had already grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist.
Then Shirou laughed to himself, what was he thinking?
Now you are not a magician like the teacher, you are just a half-wit who can't even do projection clearly. Even if you haven't really started to learn swordsmanship yet, how to fight against such a strong man is really out of your imagination.
He forcefully controlled his urge to draw his sword, and then felt a little distressed about Illya's disobedient participation in the Holy Grail War.
"Oh~~ Come with me to the Tree of Omniscient tomorrow and explain the situation to the teacher."
"Can you not go?"
Even though she summoned her own Berserker, she still didn't want to go to the library to find that person.
The magic circuits and magic perception all over the body resisted that place, and the spiritual sense every time they met also told her how powerful that person was. The girl even felt that Hercules was no match for him.
"no."
As expected, it was a categorical rejection, and she had no choice but to go back to her room to rest with a small face on her arm.
Emiya Shirou sat in the quiet room for a while, turned around, took his weapon and started practicing kendo again under the moonlight.
Analyze, reorganize, strengthen, wield the sword.
This time he boldly and radically added magic to the process of wielding a sword. Because he deeply felt his own shortcomings.
According to the few words about the war that Airi had said during her lifetime, it seemed that many of the masters of those involved had suffered misfortunes. Even though his sister had recruited such powerful servants, Shirou still felt deeply uneasy.
Therefore, during this practice, I thought I would take a little risk. Even if I make a little more progress, I might be able to protect my family.
With the help of extremely strong will and sword bones, he unexpectedly improved a little this time, but his talent in magic still held him back, and the iron sword exploded into countless pieces.
Even Shirou had several scratches on his body.
But this did not stop the pace of practice. He pulled out another sword from the warehouse, swung the sword and exploded again.
He practiced like this for half a night. The entire training ground was covered with steel thorns with fragments of the sword blade, and his hands were covered with blood.
In the end, no matter how hard I practiced, I couldn't make any progress, so I went back to rest after cleaning up the practice area. I'll ask the teacher tomorrow to see if there is any more radical method.
As for being covered in bruises, would he be afraid? Of course not.
Because this time he knew clearly that Aili had implanted a fantasy weapon into his body before she died. It's called a distant Utopia, and it has the ability to restore the body.
Because Illya has the magic inheritance of Einzbern, she doesn't really need this thing.
Instead, it was given to Shirou to maintain his life. His magic practice was always struggling on the verge of death. Without this thing, he might have been paralyzed in bed, or even dead.
The boy lying on the bed was very calm and ignored the pain in his body, but felt the lack of strength.
"Sure enough, in addition to having thoughts, one also needs the power to execute the thoughts."
The weather was very good on the second day. Shirou took a rare leave and took a reluctant Illya to the Tree of Omniscientity.
As a result, when she reached the door, the girl suddenly stopped.
"Berserker seems to be resisting entry."
"Maybe he was a little nervous, but now it's okay."
Noah, who made no sound, stood in front of the brother and sister, startling the girl.
And with Noah's voice, Berserker calmed down his restlessness.
Some inexplicable girls and the calm-faced Shirou walked to the depths of the Tree of Omniscient. There is a towering tree here that is the core of the entire library.
Shirou usually comes here to ask for kendo lessons, but what surprised him today was that there was a beautiful woman here with outstanding grace.
Wearing an indigo and purple hooded cloak and purple robes, he looks like a legendary and mysterious wizard. The simple beauty has long blue hair and pupils, and has pointed ears that are obviously different from ordinary people. There is a braid on the left ear. Wearing purple lipstick.
This woman was angrily shuttling between several stacks of drawings and books that were several people tall. And every time a book is opened, it will be read at a speed that is no different from opening a book to ordinary people.
"This is……"
"Temporary workers hired by the library."
"oh."
"He is also one of the servants in this Holy Grail War. Based on his class, he should be caster."
What? x2
The brother and sister were stunned. Illya's attack was fast enough, but the teacher brought back a servant directly.
Chapter 89 The truth is always cruel and ruthless
"So it was you, the teacher, who summoned the servants yesterday?"
"No, he was a mysterious trash from the Middle East. He did some very disgusting things, so he was sent away by me. Medea turned her back on the dark and took the initiative to follow me."
The betrayal witch rolled her eyes in her busy schedule. Who would believe such a thing and follow her actively?
"Teachers are kind."
Well...Shirou is an honest kid.
The boy brought his sister here this time to tell the teacher about the summoned servant and the specific information about the Holy Grail War.
Perhaps no one knows more about the Fourth Holy Grail War than the teacher. Shirou also roughly knows that the person whose name is always reluctant to appear in Ellie's stories is Noah.
"The Fourth Holy Grail War..."
At this time, Sakura ran out and made a cup of tea for everyone. When she saw Shirou, she was shocked that the school girl was actually in the Tree of Omniscient... This was a bit unexpected.
But now is not the time to explore this matter, so I suppress the doubts in my heart and get the information first.
So Noah told them the story of the 4th Holy Grail War under the tree.
Einzbern Castle in Germany, the first night at Fuyuki Port, the crusade against the outsiders, the victory dinner, the siege of betrayal, and the final winner.
He even told those things that Aili didn't want to talk about, which gave everyone a huge mental impact.
Sakura thought that the first night was the night when she regained her life, and the exit of her nominal father Tohsaka Tokiomi was also very dishonorable.
Medea also heard it. It turns out that this is the origin of this monster. It seems that I can't do this job without doing it. The other party was able to kill 7 servants last time, and I'm afraid he won't mind a few more this time. He is really a cruel person.
Moreover, even Gilgamesh, who surpassed the gods in terms of status, was not defeated, but he could survive the sword.
This is Medea>The King of Heroes.
The other party's mind and calculations were even more chilling, making it impossible for her, a traitorous witch, to find any flaws. horrible.
The people who had the greatest impact on the discussion were naturally the two brothers and sisters who took the initiative to search for information.
Although Shirou and Illya had long been prepared to know that Kiritsugu would have some disgraceful performances in the war.
Because they have grown up, and when I think back to the stories that Ellie told, I always find that in the second half of the story, Kiritsugu's behavior became less and less and very weird, but I didn't expect that the other party would do such an extreme thing. .
What makes it even more difficult for them to accept is that even Aili has done such a thing. That gentle but strong, simple and stupid mother also betrayed her servants, and even entered a crazy situation in the end.
No wonder Ellie said before she died that both of them were sinners. No wonder there is such talk about Noah’s atonement.
Ilia obviously couldn't accept it. How could Kiritsugu and Irisviel, who were heroes in her mind, be such people, but the stories her mother told her and the information from Einsbern convinced her. That's basically what it was like, so I fell into autistic isolation.
Shirou, on the other hand, believes that it is really sad to not have the correct ideological guidance when moving towards your ideal, and how hopeless it is to be abandoned by your own dreams.
As for the operation of Teacher Noah who was originally a servant but turned into an ordinary human being, it did not cause much surprise.
Nothing will happen to this man. After all, it stands to reason that the winner of the last Holy Grail War was the person in front of him.
Finally, after hearing all about the Holy Grail War, it became very silent.
Sakura left here silently, and no one in the story had much to do with her.
Emiya Shirou was the first to regain his sanity. The daily practice of sword meditation can help focus his mind.
It turns out that the Holy Grail War is really like what my mother said, a battle that makes good people become bad and bad people become crazy...
At the same time, I also understood what kind of situation my sister would face. It was a war with an astonishingly high casualty rate. It would be too naive to rely solely on Hercules to settle the situation.
Only one of the previous eight Masters survived normally after the war, and Ellie only had half a life left.
With such a tragic ending, it's no wonder that before her death, Ellie told him and Illya not to enter the Holy Grail War.
But... now that Illya has entered it, Emiya Shirou has no choice.
"Teacher, please help me."
Noah understood what the other party meant. Since this boy wanted a more radical practice method and had Avalon's support, then give him a set of round-trip tickets to hell.
After leaving this world, there must always be a legacy that exists in Xingyue. Maybe it can be used when one day encounters the Lost Belt.
"Take two hours every night to lead you in practice. Be prepared to die."
"Okay teacher, I am prepared to die every day."
The red-haired boy now shouldered the heavy responsibility of protecting his sister. His edge became sharper, more determined, and more weighty from an unknown perspective.
Then the boy left the Tree of Omniscient with the confused Illya.
When Noah looked back, he found that Medea's enthusiasm for work suddenly became more intense. It seems that her daily work is her passion.
"Do me a favor later. I need to make a barrier that cannot be detected by the outside world. At the same time, there are high requirements for shielding energy intensity."
"Okay, boss."
Noah nodded and left. He wanted to arrange a suitable place to teach his disciples.
He knows this kind of passionate comic protagonist very well, and the step-by-step practice is all about laying the foundation.
It's easy to break through, just die a few times.
At night, a space door opened in front of Shirou Emiya, and he stepped through it without fear.
This place turned out to be a red wilderness with countless ownerless sword tombstones, and nearly a thousand swords stuck in the ground made it even more desolate.
"I asked Medea to make a shielding measure here so that neither the satellites in the sky nor the magic means of the clock tower can detect it.
