Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

He certainly knew Mooncell's rules, and it was precisely because he knew them that he suddenly expressed doubt about the numbers that appeared.

This was not the first time he had killed the magicians sent by Julius here, but never before had he displayed the number [1] so clearly.

Previously, this number would only appear when Julius faced his opponent in the arena.

Of course, for him, it didn't even take three rounds before his opponent was defeated in the arena.

However, the numbers had never been displayed for the magicians he had killed before, but now they were displayed after he killed Shirou Emiya.

The only explanation that can be made is that he is still alive.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Just as the red-haired man stopped, a faint sound, so faint that even a normal person could barely make it when they were close to the ground, rang out in the silent space.

That was the sound of a heart pounding.

That was the joyful, surging sound of life.

"interesting--!"

With those words in mind, a powerful killing intent once again locked onto Shirou Emiya, who lay on the ground.

Amidst the pounding of his heart, Shirou Emiya clutched his chest and struggled to his feet.

Shirou Emiya once again escaped the clutches of death.

Undeterred, he met the murderous intent that was enough to make one's heart stop again, gripping the suddenly appearing reverse blade in his hand and pointing it at the red-haired man.

Similarly, an extremely strong fighting spirit erupted from his body.

The red-haired man did not make a move while Shirou Emiya was getting up. Instead, he looked at the indomitable man in front of him with great admiration.

He knew very well that even if there were an item that could heal even fatal injuries after such a blow, there wouldn't be time to heal him; by then, Shirou Emiya would already be dead.

His ability to stand up again was not solely due to the existence of something within him that could pull him back from the brink of death.

Similarly, one must possess the will to resist death, or even the will to transcend death.

"Is it a blessing or a curse to see a martial artist with such a will in this era?"

Seeing Shirou Emiya stand up from the ground, the red-haired man's fighting spirit and killing intent grew even stronger, his face filled with an eagerness to fight.

The fists that were originally hidden under the sleeves were also extended and clenched tightly.

A surge of heroic fighting spirit instantly enveloped the entire graveyard-like area, and his eyes burned with fierce flames.

As a martial artist, he arrogantly revealed his name to Emiya Shirou.

"Assassin Li Shuwen—!"

Chapter 589 Emiya Shirou's True Fighting Style

Like a towering mountain, Li Shuwen's aura suddenly surged, and standing in front of Emiya Shirou was a being whose martial arts had reached their peak.

"call!"

The surrounding air currents became turbulent under this extremely oppressive force; the wind howled and the earth wailed.

The blade in Shirou Emiya's hand kept changing, transforming into a crimson knight's sword, an extremely simple longsword, which stared at Li Shuwen in front of him.

The turbulent airflow and terrifying pressure constantly disturbed Shirou Emiya's mind.

"It's coming—!"

Suddenly, Li Shuwen's low voice carried on the wind.

He faced Shirou Emiya, standing firmly on the ground in a half-horse stance, his left hand outstretched forward.

"Oh!"

The ground shattered in that instant.

At this moment, extreme speed erupted. With just a slight push, the ground of the entire cemetery shattered like a spider web around him.

The air itself was whipped up by terrifying gusts of wind like a storm.

The atmosphere was ripped apart, the ground was torn apart, and Li Shuwen, accompanied by a strong gust of wind, stormed in.

This speed is simply beyond the reach of the human eye.

Even the air seemed to groan under this astonishing explosion.

His punches are unmatched; if an ordinary person were to collide head-on with him, they would be smashed into a pulp by his powerful force.

Emiya Shirou knew in his heart that the Assassin named Li Shuwen in front of him was someone he had to fight with all his might to survive.

"【One-Sword Asura】————!!!!"

This is to condense all the power one possesses into one minute, forcibly concentrate all magical energy, and enhance physical strength dozens of times.

"Buzz!"

Amidst the trembling of the air, magic swirled wildly around Shirou Emiya, forming a vortex.

At this moment, Shirou Emiya was engulfed in crimson flames, a dense magical light visible to the naked eye.

"Oh!"

A whirlwind suddenly rose from the ground.

Crimson lightning mixed with scarlet flames raged across Shirou Emiya's body, and at this moment, his aura reached its peak.

"good--!!!"

As Li Shuwen charged forward, he saw Emiya Shirou, who was also unleashing a powerful aura, and couldn't help but shout out loud.

One-sided slaughter is not the kind of battle he desires. What he seeks is a more powerful enemy, an enemy worthy of honing his martial arts skills once again.

"drink!"

"what!"

Emiya Shirou, wielding a knight's sword and a jet-black longsword, and the two with clenched fists charged forward amidst the swirling whirlwind, breaking the sound barrier with an astonishing speed exceeding that of a bullet, rushing towards each other.

Crimson lightning flashed.

Flames are burning.

Emiya Shirou, who embodies both thunder and fire, and Li Shuwen, who unleashes a violent storm, meet in the blink of an eye, like meteorites colliding with each other.

Immediately——————

"【Iron Fan】"

The short words came out of Emiya Shirou's mouth.

"Boom--!"

Just as they were about to clash, an incredibly powerful force of gravity abruptly struck Li Shuwen.

Under the immense force of gravity, Li Shuwen, who was originally charging forward, suddenly veered to the side and knelt on the ground with a loud thud.

The ground was shaken, causing the bedrock to collapse and rubble to be violently thrown up.

The jet-black fan was swept up by the surrounding gale at that moment.

The knight's sword, transformed into lightning, slashed down decisively towards Li Shuwen's head without hesitation.

"clang!"

With a loud clashing sound, Li Shuwen, who was kneeling on the ground, bulged his arm muscles and his knight's sword, which was mixed with crimson lightning, was knocked away by the powerful punch.

The crimson figure, which had sunk halfway down, suddenly erupted with a raging fury like flames, shattering the earth in an instant.

His clenched fists tore through the air as he violently swung them toward Shirou Emiya.

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss!"

With a tearing sound in the air, the knight's sword and the jet-black longsword transformed into a ferocious slash, like bolts of lightning and thunder, sweeping out in an overwhelming manner.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Amidst the howling wind, Li Shuwen's fists, suppressed by gravity, became afterimages, like streaks of fiery red light, engulfing the area in front of him like a storm.

"Clang, clang, clang, clang!"

In the next instant, the sword and the fist collided countless times, producing a series of crisp striking sounds and surging shockwaves, causing the two figures to engage in a fierce battle with terrifying offensives.

Wherever the two passed, the air seemed to explode.

Every collision between the fist and the blade caused this graveyard-like space to tremble violently.

This astonishing battle of attack and defense lasted only a few dozen seconds.

The fierce, storm-like attacks were easily seen through by Li Shuwen at that moment.

As martial artists, in terms of skill, Shirou Emiya and Shuwen Li are worlds apart.

The three abilities that Emiya Shirou possesses—[Bewitched by Evil Spirits], [Externalizing Magic], and [One-Sword Asura]—only enhance his physical attributes.

Although Emiya Shirou constantly acquires the skills of others in a way that is almost like cheating, he incorporates them into his own combat techniques.

But even after so many battles, Shirou Emiya only honed his martial arts skills for a short year.

Li Shuwen's eyes flickered slightly, and his fist suddenly jerked.

The moment the knight's sword, unleashing crimson lightning, and the jet-black longsword were swung at him, a terrifying force instantly deflected them, and with unstoppable momentum, pierced through the air, aiming a punch at Shirou Emiya's neck.

However------

“Good luck, good luck!”

Countless golden lightning bolts shot up from the sky, transforming into thunder dragons that, in an instant, struck down directly at Li Shuwen's location.

"boom--!"
