Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

Page 204

Without any hesitation, Shirou Emiya flapped his wings and shot towards the falling Yuuji Sakai.

"So, goodbye!"

A magic circle-like object appeared at the feet of Bellpeor, Shudnan, and Bad Blade. While they were talking, the Crimson World Apostles had already returned to the Starry Palace.

They also vanished instantly within a halo of light.

Chapter 286 Believe Me! Shana

Perhaps sensing that Shirou Emiya intended to save Yuuji Sakai, Verpeol infused a portion of her existence power into the Zero Child the moment she seized it.

It prevented it from immediately collapsing, instead dissipating into the air as a force of existence.

Why is he called Mystice after obtaining the Noble Phantasm in Torch?

That's because the moment the Torch became Mystice, their existence became linked to the Noble Phantasm.

After Torch acquires a Noble Phantasm, he can become Mystice, but if Mystice loses his Noble Phantasm, he will not become Torch.

Even a large amount of existence power could not keep Mystice alive; it could only barely prevent it from disappearing for a short period of time.

Bellpeor, acting as an advisor, realized Shirou Emiya's thoughts, so she chose a safer way to evacuate.

Just as Shirou Emiya destroyed the Free Style that is now above Misaki City, the Free Style beneath Bellpeor can also be destroyed.

Although Bellpeor was indeed confident that the Flame Haze would not choose to leave them behind, wouldn't it be better to have an extra layer of protection?

It's just a loss of a tiny, insignificant amount of existence power.

And just as Bellpeor deduced, Shirou Emiya chose to save Yuuji Sakai, whom he could not possibly save, rather than leaving them there.

The Star Palace will not be devoured by the abundant existence power here, but that doesn't mean they won't be devoured by the overflowing existence power of Misaki City.

However, as the three pillars of the state, Bellpeor and Shudnan's existence has been incorporated into the laws of the world, so even if they die like this, they can be resurrected.

"What Kamebelle Peor said is correct. The power of existence contained in this city is about to overflow. I'm afraid that in a little while, the entire city will disappear."

Alastor spoke slowly in his calm voice to Shirou Emiya, who was gently setting down Yuuji Sakai, whose cause and effect had been severed due to the loss of the Lost Child of Zero.

The masquerade ball has retreated, and there are no more phosphorus particles around. Surprisingly, apart from the roar of the power of existence, there is no other sound in the entire city.

Shirou Emiya and Shana naturally no longer needed to wear the demon-possessed costumes.

Is there any way to save this city?

Emiya Shirou's voice also became extremely heavy. Faced with such a crisis, it was impossible for him to maintain the same expression as before.

My heart was filled with anxiety.

"perhaps----"

Before Alastair could finish speaking, a childish yet authoritative voice interrupted its reply.

"The sky is shattered and the earth is shattered"

Shana looked at the power of existence around her that was now visible to the naked eye, her eyes revealing determination.

"What will you do?"

Emiya Shirou turned around, staring intently at her.

"It's just an ordinary spell!"

For some reason, Shana was somewhat afraid to meet Shirou Emiya's gaze, and her eyes unconsciously drifted to the side.

Emiya Shirou strode forward, his hands, already covered in knife wounds, firmly placing them on Shana's shoulder.

"Look at me and tell me, what would you do if you used Heaven-Shattering Earth-Splitting Technique?"

"Shut up! Shut up! This is just a simple free magic. If it can save the entire Misaki City, what's wrong with sacrificing myself!"

Shana struggled to break free from Shirou Emiya's grip on her arms.

But for some reason, Shirou Emiya, whose strength was not as great as Shana's, held her firmly in his grasp, making it difficult for her to break free.

"The shattering of heaven and earth is a ritual that summons my divine power."

Alastor, standing in front of Shana, spoke slowly, explaining to Shirou Emiya.

"As an incredibly powerful Crimson World Demon King, my appearance is accompanied by a huge consumption of existence power. Even this amount of existence power is not enough for me to exist in the mortal world for a long time."

"So as long as I appear, the city will avoid being completely destroyed due to the overflow of the power of existence."

What is the price of such a shattered world?

Emiya Shirou couldn't believe that such terrifying power came without any price. He knew that he had paid a considerable price to obtain such power.

"The previous [Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Assassin] died because of the shattering of the heavens and earth."

Alastor's voice grew even more somber. This was a release of freedom at the cost of life.

"but----"

Before Alastor could finish speaking, Shana interrupted him once again.

"I will fulfill my duty as a Flame Haze until the very last moment!"

Shana forcefully broke free from Shirou Emiya's hands, revealing a pair of crimson wings behind her, and flew towards the rooftop.

If it were the old her, if it were the old her, if it were the old her known as the "Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Assassin," she would have given her life without hesitation for the sake of stability in the present world.

This is the duty of the Flame Haze, this is the mission of the Flame Haze. From the moment she became the "Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Killer," she has shouldered this destiny.

But now, Shana felt a pang of reluctance, and she didn't care that she was sacrificing her life for Misaki City.

But the thought that she would never see Shirou Emiya again filled her with inexplicable sadness.

She misses the days when she trained and studied with Shirou Emiya.

She fondly remembers eating all sorts of delicious food with Shirou Emiya that she had never tasted before.

She cherishes the memories of her time with Shirou Emiya; though it was only a short time together, the memories are so vivid.

At that moment, a surge of indescribable emotion welled up in her heart, but now, all of this emotion was overshadowed by regret.

Shana stood on the rooftop, stretched out her hand, and at that moment, crimson flames were born from beneath her feet.

"Shana—!!!!"

A shout rang out, and the instant flames rose from beneath Shana's feet, a familiar figure rushed over, embracing her tightly and rolling several times on the ground.

It directly interrupted Shana's intended spell.

"Why! Why! Don't you know what kind of distortion it would cause to the world if the power of existence here were to overflow, and how many humans would die?"

Shana angrily pounded on Shirou Emiya, tears streaming down her face.

Shirou Emiya did not refute Shana's words. He did not want to see the people of this city perish, nor did he want to see Shana pay for it with her life while he was powerless to do anything about it.

If he had to choose between a person and a city, Shirou Emiya would risk everything. He would save the city, and he would save the person too.

Life cannot be measured!

Do you believe me?

Emiya Shirou and Shana locked eyes, and he asked Shana in an unquestionable voice.

"what are you up to?"

Seeing Shirou Emiya's incredibly determined gaze, Shana also calmed down.

"Even without revealing his true form, could Alastor absorb all the surrounding power of existence?"

“I can indeed do this without revealing my true form, but Shana could not possibly bear so much power of existence.”

Alastor didn't quite understand Shirou Emiya's thoughts. If Shana really had the power to contain the existence of a city, then she couldn't have imagined that the world would be shattered.

"Infuse me with the power of existence!"

As soon as Shirou Emiya finished speaking, Shana's expression became extremely agitated.

"Are you crazy? The human body cannot contain the power of existence. If the power of existence is directly poured into your body, you will disappear from this world like a torch!"

She could hardly believe that Shirou Emiya would have such a plan; she would rather have chosen the shattered world.

"Trust me, Shana!"

He had no way to explain to Shana, so he could only look at her with his determined gaze.

"If anything abnormal happens to your body, I will not hesitate to use the Heaven and Earth Shattering Technique!"

Shana stared intently into Shirou Emiya's eyes, just as he had stopped her from unleashing the Heavenly Shatter without hesitation. If anything were to happen to Shirou Emiya, she would stop him as well and immediately unleash the Heavenly Shatter to save the city.

They saved Shirou Emiya.

At this moment, Shana was like the eye of a storm, with visible power condensing around her and surging wildly toward her.

An incredibly firm voice rang out at that moment.

"Projection started (Trace on)"

Chapter 287 Miracle!

"How can this be!"

Is it really possible?

"Is he really human?"

One exclamation after another came from the Starry Night Palace, which was about to be moved away.

All the Crimson World Apostles and Phosphorus watched the incredible scene unfold outside.

"Is it a miracle?"

Even the strategist Bellpeor, whose intellect was at its peak, looked at the scene before her in disbelief.
