Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

It was actually quite late; the sun was already high in the sky, and the adventurers were heading towards the dungeon.

Instead, it was the one who fought those two, a person she had never seen before, whose hair appeared pale red due to the staggered white hair, and who wielded two blades.

Even with Ais and Bert working together, the boy still held his own.

Although both of them were only LV5, even an adventurer of LV6 level would not be able to withstand their combined attack.

"Lefia! Riveria!"

Shouts came from below; it was Tiona waving and smiling at them.

Why are they fighting?!

Lefia leaned against the window and asked Tiona loudly.

"I'll explain later! Come down now!"

As Tiona finished speaking, the battle in the courtyard erupted once again.

Bert, a werewolf, gripped his twin swords tightly, and his feet suddenly unleashed astonishing power, transforming into a silver beam that shot towards Shirou Emiya.

"【Awaken! (Tempest)】"

On the other side, Ais was not to be outdone. As she spoke, a verdant light instantly surrounded the ground beneath her feet.

Before they clashed, Finn spoke with Shirou Emiya and told them not to hold back and to fight with all their might.

Ais wanted to understand why someone who didn't even have a single gift could become so powerful.

"boom--!"

The terrifying impact erupted at that moment.

In that instant, the two figures transformed into phantoms and shot towards Shirou Emiya's location.

At that very moment, a thunderous breathing sound came from Shirou Emiya's mouth.

"Clang, clang, clang, clang!"

In an instant, the sound of swords clashing against swords rang out, accompanied by bursts of sparks that echoed continuously throughout the courtyard.

The three figures moved constantly throughout the vast courtyard.

Countless sword energies erupted from between the three, either slicing across the ground or sweeping over the surrounding flowers and plants, leaving blade marks on the ground and shearing pieces of vegetation from it.

Even the leaves that naturally fall are pulverized in the moment of the fierce battle between the three.

Dazzling sword light and brilliant trails constantly appeared in this space, which looked extremely awe-inspiring.

The battle was incredibly intense and spectacular.

The Loki Familia members and Finn and the others standing to the side were dumbfounded.

"Is that...that...that mortal?"

"I think so!"

"Did he really not receive any blessings? Those were two Level 5 adventurers, how could they have lasted this long!"

"Is it really just persistence? I feel like he has the upper hand."

After hearing the comments from the members of the clan, Finn also looked at Tiona beside him.

"I've already said it, Shirou Emiya's strength is exactly that of a LV6 adventurer."

“但Lv6等级的冒险者也不能够硬抗两名LV5的冒险者这么久，更何况艾丝和伯特也不是普通的LV5，他们都是LV5巅峰的存在，几乎差一步就能够达到LV6.可以说与LV6几乎没有多少的差距。”

"I lost to Shirou Emiya, and I still haven't been able to gauge Shirou Emiya's true strength."

Tiona shrugged, indicating that she didn't know the specifics of Shirou Emiya's situation; all she knew was that she had lost to him.

It is also confirmed that Emiya Shirou has the strength of LV6.

"However, the outcome will be decided soon—"

As the captain, Finn had already foreseen the end of the battle.

"The crane's wings, however, cannot fall."

A low murmur came from Emiya Shirou's lips.

Two arc-shaped blades were swung towards Ais and Bert.

"Giving up weapons is the most foolish idea!!"

Bert gripped his twin blades tightly, mocking as he deflected the incoming reverse blade, laughing wildly as he stopped his explosive retreat from the collision with Emiya Shirou.

He hadn't enjoyed such an exhilarating battle in a long time, even though it wasn't a 1v1.

Ais slightly turned her body to the side, narrowly avoiding the oncoming reverse blade.

"With heart and skill, even Mount Tai can be reached."

Two more reverse blades were projected from Shirou Emiya's hand.

His expression was incredibly calm, as if he had long anticipated that the blade he had thrown would be dodged and bounced off.

"!"

An ominous feeling crept over Bert's head.

He only felt a chill coming from behind him.

The reverse blade that had previously flown towards Ais and been dodged now spun in the air and appeared behind him.

"Qiang——!"

The sound of clashing swords rang out at that moment, and Bert had to stop in his tracks to deflect the reverse blade that was flying towards him from behind.

At the same time, Shirou Emiya, who projected two reverse blades again, once again faced Ais head-on.

"Clang!"

With a bang louder than any previous collision, terrifying force exploded from Ais's hand, sending her staggering backward, her toes barely touching the ground.

""Mind Skill, Yellow River Crossing""

At that moment, Ais's pupils suddenly contracted.

The first reverse blade that Bert had deflected had somehow appeared behind him!

"Damn it!!!!"

Bert roared as he blocked the reverse blade that appeared behind him. As the ground shattered in a spider-like pattern, the werewolf's terrifying power erupted at that moment.

However, at the very moment Bert blocked the reverse blade that came flying from behind.

Shirou Emiya, without anyone noticing, once again flung out his reversed blade, aiming it straight at Ais and Bert.

"Only names, separate from the heavens."

The third projection of the limit resulted in two reverse blades appearing in Shirou Emiya's hands.

"Qiang! Qiang!"

"Qiang! Qiang!"

With four sounds of swords being deflected, at the critical moment, Ais and Bert managed to deflect the blades beside them.

But at this moment, facing Shirou Emiya, who was holding a reversed blade tightly in front of them, they had no way to avoid it.

His entire body was riddled with flaws.

"Two heroes, their fates intertwined, now parted."

The slash passed through their bodies at that moment.

Chapter 469 The Formation of the Crane Wing Trio

In fact, Shirou Emiya had wanted to further modify the reverse blade in his hand for a long time.

Through constant battles, Shirou Emiya developed a tactic that made it impossible for enemies to dodge and would expose their weaknesses.

That was the Crane Wings Triple Strike that defeated Amakusa Shiro Tokisada in the Holy Grail War.

This sword technique originated from a modified version of the one Shirou Emiya used when he attempted to block Nakime, who could quickly reposition herself.

At that time, the enemy's evasion was blocked by projecting a large number of Nichirin Blades.

However, it can only block the enemy's dodge, but cannot prevent the enemy from blocking.

Even if seven Nichirin Blades appeared in a very short time, it would be easy to block them.

Thus, Shirou Emiya, through continuous reflection, drew upon the sword-wielding experiences of Arthur, Siegfried, Esdeath, Akame, and others, and made further modifications.

It evolved into a method of locking onto enemies by controlling flying swords with silk threads.

He finally unleashed it when facing Amakusa Shiro Tokisada.

However, locking onto the enemy in this way still has significant drawbacks.

【Ever-changing】Although the threads are incredibly fine, that doesn’t mean they are invisible.

I can clearly see the movement path of each line.

For those whose strength reaches a certain level, even if they cannot see it, they can easily sense it.

For those who are weaker than themselves, there is no need to use such methods.

This approach has too many drawbacks for those who are stronger than you.

Even though the silk thread is extremely tough, it can still be cut when faced with superior weapons.

If the thread is cut, Shirou Emiya will even be at a disadvantage.

Shirou Emiya has also been searching for a way to improve his combat skills.

Then, while browsing through the books, he came across a weapon called "Gan Jiang and Mo Xie".

They were a pair of weapons that were mutually attracted to each other.

One yin and one yang, one male and one female.

Shirou Emiya had considered in his mind whether he could perform the Crane Wing Triple Strike using this weapon without using the threads.
