"Your swordsmanship is good, but it lacks something. It's not as good as my disciple's."
The white-haired hero was stunned. Although he still had the illusion of collapse and the last inherent barrier, it was unbelievable that he was defeated so easily.
Having fought in countless battlefields, he never underestimated the enemy for a moment, but he was defeated in such a confused way.
The enemy saw through all the sword moves and even knocked away all the Gan Jiang and Mo Ye with sword moves beyond imagination.
The last sword stopped at his forehead in a way he couldn't understand. Was he the last to strike but the last to arrive? Predicting the future? The law of cause and effect?
"Neither, I just killed it when I saw it."
……
"Who are you anyway?"
Emiya asked unwillingly how it was possible that such a person would appear in the Fifth Holy Grail War.
Even Sasaki Kojiro's swordsmanship is not enough to carry this man's shoes. Even if Hercules regained his sanity and shot a hundred heads, he would not be a match for the man in front of him.
So was the Holy Grail War that he fought fake?
"I've said it before. Come to the library when you have time. It's not easy to come to this world, so don't always think about changing the past and ending yourself."
"I'll find a way to deal with your problem."
I believe Alaya will give face to a guardian, and he is a disciple from a parallel world after all. His fate is so miserable that it is unbearable to watch.
After saying that, Noah took back his Wado Ichimonji, took out a bottle of wine, handed it to the Heroic Spirit Emiya, and left.
Shirou looked at the wine in his hand and the mysterious man's back, and suddenly remembered something and asked.
"What is missing from my sword?"
"You will understand when you meet my disciples."
A mysterious smile appeared on Noah's lips. It was a whole month of hell training.
The young man's progress is amazing in this world. Even Noah was amazed by the boy yesterday. He is really looking forward to the showdown between the two.
With the disappearance of the enemy, Emiya retrieved Gan Jiang and Moye that fell to the ground. His safety measure just now was to cause illusion collapse, using explosive magic power to attack himself and the enemy.
As long as he can get out of the control range of the opponent's sword field, there will be a chance to turn the tables. He has learned so much on the battlefield.
But... is there really something missing from my sword? And the man's firm tone indicated that he would definitely fight that disciple.
I'm really looking forward to it.
When Toosaka Rin ran over breathlessly, she only saw her Servant drinking a bottle of wine by the side of the building, with the red holy cloth fluttering in the wind, looking a little lonely.
"Where are the enemies?"
"Of course I chased him away. By the time you get there it's too late. And as a Master you have to know how to protect yourself. A newbie should..."
The nanny-like Heroic Spirit Emiya suddenly noticed the murderous intent of the twin-tailed girl opposite her, and decisively changed her tone and began to comfort the little devil.
"Actually, I am still very touched, but next time..."
Just like that, with some bickering along the way, the two's investigation for the day came to a successful conclusion.
Now, of the seven knights in the entire Holy Grail War, only the last Saber has not been summoned.
Noah was not in a hurry about this matter as it was not the last minute yet.
Besides, the plot has been completely disrupted, and there is no point in worrying about such things.
He didn't care whether his stupid disciple would summon the blonde girl again, because if Saber appeared again, she would probably be even more desperate, and this time she might even destroy the cup itself.
Standing on the top of Mount Yuanzang, he watched Medea working frantically in the jungle and nodded with satisfaction. This time, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for the carrier of the Lesser Holy Grail to communicate with the Greater Holy Grail.
I just don’t know if the thing hiding inside will miss me. You know, Noah still likes the evil in this world very much.
Not only was he given a body that transcended the mundane, but he was also given a path forward with no visible limit.
As for Medea's proposal to illegally summon an eighth heroic spirit to work, it was rejected, and the proposal to find a heroic spirit to guard the gate was also rejected.
Chapter 96: Shirou and the Holy Grail's First Night
He is not a cruel person, so how could he specifically exploit the heroic spirits?
"Boss, when the Holy Grail riots, there may be changes. Maybe even us Heroic Spirits will be contaminated by the black mud inside."
Medea seemed to be worried but actually said it with a veiled expression. She really wanted to see a scene where seven knights would attack the devil, so that a certain man could see what the dignity of a magician was!
"It's okay. I will take action to deal with the disobedient heroic spirits when the time comes. For example, I will kill a certain traitorous witch first."
"Just kidding, boss. I'm going to get busy now."
The witch thought it would be better to take some insurance measures for herself to avoid being chopped by the boss.
That's an iron bar. It must be very painful if it hits someone.
It was like a vision before the storm.
The wind in the port city suddenly stopped and the weather began to become abnormal.
The strong sunlight caused the dull air temperature to rise sharply like a drought, and unseasonable mirages could be seen everywhere.
And all kinds of weird urban legends have emerged.
For example, the voice of a girl behind the giant sings in the dark, and a man with a spear wanders around at midnight.
This is 2004, and people have easier access to information than ever before, so bizarre information spreads quickly.
Some older Fuyuki citizens recalled the great smog that occurred ten years ago and the burnt-down Fuyuki Hall.
The weather was so abnormal at that time that gas pipelines exploded almost every day.
There is also a murderer roaming around the city, triggering a city-wide manhunt.
The rich began to leave the city vigilantly, and ordinary people also asked their children and family members to go home early after get off work and not wander around the streets.
The entire city seemed to have consciously begun a nighttime curfew, while rumors and newly woven stories began to circulate on the Internet.
Some outside TV stations and media intended to come in and report, but were stopped by higher-level forces.
This is what Noah said, in modern times when technology is becoming more and more advanced, the power of the mysterious side will fade at a faster rate.
Because the definition of magic is that if it can be achieved by human technology in that era, it is classified as "magic". Things that are impossible to achieve in that era are "magic".
So this is the power of the times, and the five major magics are the ultimate source of the mysterious side.
“Hey, hey, Chong Chong Chong… granddaughter. It seems that the magic association behind you doesn’t take the Holy Grail very seriously. Did they just send you here alone?”
After gathering intelligence for a few days, the spearman felt a little bored and wanted to have a good fight.
"Just call me Bhagat, Lord Cuchulain."
"In addition to me, the Holy Church also sent a proxy priest who is also on our side."
"As for the Holy Grail... The Clock Tower has always believed that the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki is just a magic ritual performed by country folk and has not taken it seriously, even though a monarch and the daughter of a dean died in the Fourth War."
"It's just because a terrifying Lord Noah appeared in the last term that there is a need for investigation."
The Clock Tower did think so, so it sent out agents to collect information.
This was also due to the fact that Jewelo tried hard to suppress the situation and prevent the truth about the Fuyuki Holy Grail War from spreading widely.
Only the highest-ranking dean candidate, Barthelmero Lorelaya, was interested in this, and that was only for Noah, not the Holy Grail.
This time, Bazette also contacted Karen Aldessia, and the two had reached an alliance agreement before the war.
Collect the secrets of the Holy Grail War and hand them over to their respective factions without causing further unrest.
This official background also made them very confident. Especially Bazette was very confident in the fighting power of her ancestor Cu Chulainn.
Unless an exceptionally strong person appears like in the last session, we will definitely win this time.
The two groups set their sights on the same target from the very beginning.
Illyasviel von Einzbern!
After all, the goal of the head of the Einzbern family is too obvious. And the very obvious label of the three major families of the Fuyuki Holy Grail is on him.
As the head of a declining magic family that has attracted much attention in the past 10 years, he went out to play in this city without any disguise.
Therefore, two agents who were slightly lacking in moral bottom line decided to eliminate the clan leader in advance, and they only needed to defeat her servants and force them to leave the Holy Grail War.
"Let Assassin lure Illya's servants away first, and then we'll raid the Master's body.
With the strength of you and me, plus Cu Chulainn's bravery, even if the other side has an allied master, they will not be able to stop our attack this time."
Kallen nodded repeatedly.
Although he is the agent of the Holy Church, his combat experience and ability are naturally far inferior to those of Bazett, who comes from a famous family and has extremely rich combat experience.
This plan is very simple and crude, but very effective, and its main feature is speed.
All this should be done before anyone can react, and it would be best if you could also drop some smoke to guide other servants to fight each other.
They had even checked the address, and it happened to be in the suburbs where there weren't many people.
As long as they act quickly enough to control the head of the family, seize the opponent's Command Seal, or force the opponent's servant to retreat, then their mission will be completed 1/7.
According to investigation, the other party does not live in Einzbern Castle but in the Emiya residence because he has a brother living there.
A brother who doesn't have much talent in magic, and even inherited the name of the magician killer Emiya Kiritsugu but didn't inherit the other's magic mark, can be said to be no threat at all.
And those two artificial combat maids were not even taken seriously by Badette. With the combat power of the Agent and his own backlight sword, he could deal with this kind of garbage in a few minutes.
As for Cu Chulainn, his task was to guard Noah from the outside.
If this terrifying guy appears, let this spearman, whose fighting spirit is already overflowing and uncontrollable, fight against the opponent.
Of course, even so, breaking into the Emiya mansion is not a good option. Anything can happen in a magic workshop run by a magician himself.
It is said that the previous monarch of the Clock Tower, Kenneth, was severely injured when he broke into the Einzbern Castle, and even lost a lot of the wealth of the entire family.
So with the existence of negative examples, they naturally did not want to choose the worst option, but instead set their sights on the private Hogunhara Academy, where Shirou Emiya went to school.
The young man who looked like a good guy often stayed to repair the broken tables and chairs. At that time, you only needed to do a little bit of work to make him stay.
Although the magic side does not attach much importance to family affection, there are even some crazy people who use blood as magic props.
But according to the intelligence gathered over the years, the relationship between the brother and sister is pretty good. At least on the surface. So they also made plans to use Shirou Emiya as bait to trap Illya.
In short, in the eyes of the two people, Shirou Emiya is just a dish on their table, and they can do whatever they want with him.
"When will you make your move?"
"Well... tonight!"
As a result, the first step failed.
Shirou was indeed asked to stay and help repair the table, but knowing that the Holy Grail War was about to begin, he also had a younger sister at home who particularly liked to run away at night and take her berserker for a walk.
How could the boy stay here foolishly? Naturally, he refused directly.
The student who was controlled by magic actually tried to use moral kidnapping, but ended up being humiliated by Shirou in public.
Just kidding, I have been practicing with Teacher Noah for 5 years and I have learned a lot from him. What's more, I have also read a lot of more professional books.
After school, the boy's intuition told him that what happened before was not normal, so he rushed back home at a faster speed and blocked Illya who had just arrived at the door.
Looking at the images transmitted by the familiar, the two official personnel on the magic side felt a little helpless.
This guy is quite alert.
"I say, with the power of two servants, why are you afraid of the Magic Workshop? It's time to show you the bravery of our ancestors!"
Encouraged by the spearmen, they finally stopped waiting and decided to take the initiative.
The moon was very round that night.
Chapter 97: Girl and Regret in the Moonlight
When school was over today, Toosaka Rin immediately rushed home and began to prepare for battle.
The fact that that classmate unusually wanted to keep Emiya Shirou also caught her attention.
Could it be because of that stupid white-haired sister?
