Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

A silver meteor streaked across the space, accompanied by a whistling airflow, as two serrated samurai swords were aimed at his head and slashed down fiercely.

Even when using weapons previously used by others, Shirou Emiya is still able to utilize his own skills.

Shirou Emiya would not spare Fariagne and let him live, causing more people to die tragically. Shirou Emiya could not do such a thing.

Fariagni never expected that a human would suddenly appear in front of him and launch an attack of this magnitude.

Fariagni was ultimately careless when facing humans, and his face was extremely ugly at this moment. Faced with Shirou Emiya's swift attack, he only had time to summon the white cloth that was hovering around him to his front to block him.

"Tear-!"

The tearing sound came from in front of Fariagni, and pure white flames burned on both sides of him.

His two arms were torn apart swiftly and completely by the two swords in Shirou Emiya's hands, just like watermelons being sliced ​​off.

The serrated Nichirin Blade is not as sharp as a regular Nichirin Blade; its damage comes more from tearing.

Therefore, at the moment the white cloth blocked their way, the two serrated Nichirin swords did not tear it apart immediately.

This also resulted in Shirou Emiya's fatal blow not severing Fariagne's head, but only cutting off its two arms.

But Shirou Emiya wasn't about to let this opportunity slip by. Now that he'd already severed both arms, cutting off his head wouldn't be a problem either.

"what----!"

Before Shirou Emiya could react, Fariagne instantly realized the situation. The white cloth beside him condensed into a fist in front of him and rammed towards Shirou Emiya's abdomen.

He attempted to repel Emiya Shirou and create some distance.

At that speed, Shirou Emiya was able to push it away before he could decapitate him.

It can be said that both sides are racing against time.

Shirou Emiya only got to this position by using the impact force, and Fariagne only needs to create some distance to temporarily escape the danger to his life.

But Shirou Emiya, equipped with two [Demon's Embrace] items, was incredibly swift. The moment he realized there was no chance to sever his neck with a single strike, he...

Before the white cloth could hit him, he suddenly kicked Fariagni in the stomach.

The Crimson Lord, who bore the name "Hunter," transformed into a cannonball, scraping against the air as it flew backward with a sharp whooshing sound, crashing heavily to the ground.

"Well--!"

Fariagni felt a tingling sensation all over his body. He gritted his teeth and swallowed the muffled groan that rose in his throat, trying his best to control his body. He stabilized himself by constantly scraping against the ground.

The flames burned extremely quickly on his two cut surfaces, and in an instant, both arms were restored.

As long as their power of existence is sufficient, the regenerative abilities of these Crimson World Demon Lords are terrifying.

After knocking Fariagne away, Shirou Emiya quickly deactivated the second set of [Demon Possession] status. In just a few seconds, his body was covered with wounds, and blood was constantly flowing from his skin.

Fariagne looked at Shirou Emiya in the sky, his expression revealing shock.

Emiya Shirou did not fall straight to the ground.

Two pairs of wings unfurled from the back of the armor, and Shirou Emiya transformed into a missile in mid-air, hurtling towards Fariagne on the ground.

"It can still fly?"

Fariagni never expected that the armor could also fly, which instantly turned his original advantage into nothing.

When Shirou Emiya was still in the Empire, Tatsumi, in order to withstand the water sword that fell from the sky by Rive and to prevent the innocent people on the ship from being harmed, caused [Demon Possession] to evolve into wings.

Tatsumi also rushed into the sky to stop it, but in the end he was blasted into the sea by the water sword.

Shirou Emiya later projected the [Demon Possession], and naturally, this [Demon Possession] grants the ability to make people fly.

However, Shirou Emiya doesn't have any situations requiring him to engage in aerial combat.

After all, the speed at which one can fly using [Demon Possession] is not as fast as the speed at which Shirou Emiya moves on the ground.

An Ace of Spades appeared in Fariagni's hand.

He thought he wouldn't need to use his Noble Phantasm to deal with this human, but clearly, he had underestimated him.

But it's not surprising that he was like this. After all, the most humans in this world can do is assist Flame Haze. This is the first time he has ever seen someone with such combat power.

"Who are you?"

Faria Gni, who had stood up from the ground and spread out the playing cards in his hand, asked Emiya Shirou, who was rushing towards him.

Countless playing cards were launched one after another at Shirou Emiya. If any card hit, Shirou Emiya would explode in the air like a firework.

This is one of Fariagni's most prized Noble Phantasms.

A human with such strength could not be an unknown person. How could I not know anything about him? He didn't really hide in the deep mountains and forests.

He was also extremely well-informed about the outside world; otherwise, how would he have known that the "Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Killer" was coming?

Emiya Shirou simply responded with a curt reply.

[I just happened to be passing by and decided to play this card (laughs)]

"Kill your people!"

Having witnessed battles between Heroic Spirits, such a speed of attack was nothing in Shirou Emiya's eyes.

At least it didn't reach the point where Shirou Emiya felt he couldn't resist at all.

Before Shirou Emiya could reach the playing cards, a gust of wind came from above his head.

"laugh----!"

A fiery red figure suddenly flashed by, accompanied by extremely dazzling red flames, and slashed down the playing cards that were flying towards Shirou Emiya.

Emiya Shirou stopped in his tracks as he looked at the figure with fiery red hair that suddenly appeared in front of him.

Immediately, a youthful yet authoritative voice rang out.

"Are you the 'Hunter' famous for collecting treasures and hunting Flame Haze?"

The girl held up her extremely long katana, pointing it at the utterly disheveled Fariagni.

Chapter 229 Swords and Arrows Like Meteors

"I'm sorry, Master, I failed to stop the [Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Assassin] from approaching!"

A clear female voice came from beside Fariagni.

As the pure white flames ignited, an exquisitely crafted doll appeared beside him.

Given the speed of the woman who appeared before Shirou Emiya, as long as she was within the city, she could provide support to various parts of the city in a very short time.

However, he only arrived after Shirou Emiya and Fariagne had fought, which was actually thanks to Fariagne's intervention.

However, the battle between Shirou Emiya and Fariagne was extremely short, and even including the time Shirou Emiya spent killing those puppets, the total time would not exceed five minutes.

In such a short time, she dealt with the Phosphorus sent by Fariagni to block her and arrived here, which shows that her strength is quite remarkable.

It's important to know that the Rinko sent to deal with her wasn't facing a weak doll like Shirou Emiya; many of them were enormous dolls with astonishing destructive power.

Those phosphorescent particles could destroy a building with just a light strike, and even with such terrifying combat power, it seemed they wouldn't last long against that girl.

Moreover, Fariagni's beloved Marianne was also on the battlefield there, making it a truly grand undertaking.

Of course, Fariagni didn't think he could easily eliminate the [Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Killer] that way; his goal from the beginning was simply to delay the girl.

The fact that the girl could eliminate the phosphorus particles he had set up in such a short time was exactly what he expected.

The only unexpected thing was the human wearing armor.

Five minutes? A Crimson World Demon Lord can't even take down a human?

He himself would probably laugh at this Crimson World Demon Lord for failing to eliminate that human upon hearing this.

But this happened to him, and he not only failed to eliminate the human within five minutes.

Instead, he was almost killed by that human.

This is such an incredible thing.

At this moment, Fariagni felt more anger than shame. How could he possibly blame Marianne, who had already completed her mission?

"Nice to meet you, assassin of the 'Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Assassin'."

Fariagni stood up from the ground, levitating once more in the air. Suppressing his emotions, he calmly responded to the girl with bright red hair in front of him.

A hand had somehow appeared behind his back.

"It's finally here..."

The fiery-haired girl stared directly at the handsome man, her burning eyes flashing with a flame-like light, and slowly spoke.

She seemed completely unconcerned about Shirou Emiya standing behind her; extremely hot flames surrounded her katana, and a powerful aura erupted from her body.

"be careful."

A gem that shimmered with red light on the girl's chest suddenly swayed and made a sound.

"The opponent is not an ordinary Crimson World Apostle, but a Crimson World Demon Lord. If you don't fight with all your might, you will die."

The voice was extremely mature, just like that of an old father.

Although the girl already knew that the man in front of her was the renowned "Hunter," the gem on her chest couldn't help but speak up again to remind her as she prepared to charge forward.

After all, although the combat power of the phosphorescent beings they had encountered earlier had reached the level of ordinary Crimson World Apostles, there was still a world of difference between them and the Crimson World Lords.

Moreover, she had never formally fought against a powerful Crimson Lord, which is why the gem on her chest spoke up to remind her to be careful.

The girl's expression hardened, and a burning light flashed in her eyes.

"Although I would very much like to communicate more with Alastordos, the one known as 'Heavenly Blaze,' it seems that the human doesn't intend to agree?"

Fariagni seemed unconcerned about the flame-haired girl who was about to rush forward, and looked at the human standing behind her with a smile.

She immediately turned around to look at the human she had been ignoring.

At this moment, Shirou Emiya suddenly had a brown bow in his hand.

That was the bow held by Chiron, his temporary teacher and mentor to all heroes.

However, they are not entirely consistent. It seems that in order to better suit Shirou Emiya's archery technique, the shapes of the arrowhead and bowstring have been simplified.
