"Speaking of which, there's actually a Yu-Gi-Oh! in this era, isn't that a bit odd... Oh well, there are so many parallel worlds of Type-Moon, it's normal for there to be some discrepancies."
Shirou propped his cheek up with his hand, watching the farce between the elementary school students with great interest.
They had invited Shirou to join them, but although Shirou wasn't exactly a seasoned card player, beating these elementary school kids was still a piece of cake for him.
Finally, because they kept using all sorts of weird and disgusting card decks to annoy them, the group of kids were repeatedly tortured to the point of being red-hot. Unable to bear the humiliation any longer, they unanimously decided to expel Shirou from the card-playing group!
Ring ring ring €€€€
With the sound of the school bell, the lively atmosphere in the classroom finally subsided.
The second-grade curriculum was relatively simple, so Shirou was somewhat uninterested.
"Should we try summoning a Servant tonight... since we already have Command Seals?"
As Shirou pondered these things, time slowly passed.
"Okay, then Qianhui, please stand up and answer this question!"
On the podium, the young female teacher pushed up her glasses and fixed her gaze on the back row.
Chapter Six: Ayako Mitsumi's Kidnapping
When Shirou was called upon, he immediately snapped out of his jumbled thoughts and looked at the podium.
At that moment, Shirou realized that all the students in the classroom were staring at him.
Some mischievous boys even wore gloating smiles, clearly having transformed into pure amusement seekers, waiting to see a good show.
"..."
Looks like I got caught slacking off.
Shirou thought to himself.
However, a topic as simple as this, which is only for elementary school students, is simply not enough to stump someone with an adult soul like myself.
Shirou remained calm, stood up, and walked confidently to the podium.
Then, amidst the astonished gazes of a group of elementary school students and the female math teacher who had hoped to see him make a fool of himself, he picked up the chalk and casually wrote the answer on the blackboard.
"Ah, this..."
The young female teacher's mouth dropped open slightly, a look of disbelief flashing in her eyes.
After standing there stunned for several seconds, she finally realized what was happening and coughed awkwardly.
"...You, you answered very well, completely correct. You can go now, Chihiro."
The original intention was to take this opportunity to give a warning to students who were daydreaming and inattentive in class, to make an example of them.
But now the situation is completely reversed; the child actually managed to fool us!
The female teacher looked at the red-haired boy walking towards her seat, and a look of curiosity flashed in her eyes.
She had just deliberately given a question that hadn't been covered yet, and the child was actually able to answer it.
In short, after this little incident, the female teacher could no longer control Shirou, and would even glance at him from time to time while lecturing.
……
3 PM.
School dismissal time.
For students, leaving school is undoubtedly the happiest time.
"Chihiro, do you want to come to the arcade with us?"
A child extended an invitation to Shirou.
"No, I have something to do today, you guys go ahead."
Shirou smiled faintly and shook his head in refusal.
While the video games of that era were classics, they held little appeal for him.
Thinking of this, Shirou couldn't help but miss the smartphones, high-performance computers, PS5, Switch... and other electronic products that could provide ample entertainment in later generations.
"Let's find a place to test out the 'projection' magic trick first..."
Since acquiring the power of the Heroic Spirit this morning, Shirou has not yet truly tried to use this power; his hands have been itching to do so for a long time.
So, he's still quite eager to try.
On his way to find a testing site, Shirou recalled the key points about projection magic.
The original projection was supposed to be a magic trick that materialized the replica.
However, for ordinary users, it can only last for a very short time, and the effect is very poor.
However, Shirou's projection magic is completely different.
The products he projects can exist for a long time.
Even when projecting swords or other magical weapons, the energy consumption can be very low.
The key to projection is his imagination; once he doubts his own imagination, the projected object will disappear.
What he had to do was to make his projected product as close to the real thing as possible.
Swords and blades consume the least amount of magic power. Other objects can also be projected as long as they can be analyzed, but the magic power consumed will increase depending on the object being projected.
Stopping in a relatively secluded area of the park, Shirou began his experiment.
"Projection, begin (Traceon)"
After a tingling and stinging sensation, like being electrocuted, a deep blue light appeared and gathered in his hand.
"Identification, imagination."
"Copy, imitate."
“Reflection, reappearance.
"Surpassing, accomplished—"
A silver-white longsword was completed in Shirou's hands.
Unfortunately, he can't project his Noble Phantasm at all right now.
Without having personally seen and analyzed the actual artifact, one naturally cannot project it.
What Shirou is projecting now is a replica sword he saw at an antique shop today.
With his current expertise, he can tell the difference between genuine and counterfeit items at a glance.
After all, the most impressive aspect of his projection magic is its ability to replicate.
"Although it's just a modern craft item, its quality can be temporarily improved using 'enhancement,' which should be enough to deal with some magicians."
Fortunately, all 27 magic circuits in his body were activated, and his magic reserves were quite good; otherwise, it would have been a real problem.
"Hmm... First, I'll 'enhance' the projected sword with magic, then use that to unleash 'Illusion Collapse.' Its power is equivalent to a series of exploding hand grenades; it's barely enough to fight a magician."
Moreover, the fact that this child could perform such a magic trick would surely have an unexpected effect.
After all, who would have thought that a 7-year-old child could have such destructive power?
Shirou sat on the ground, with a pile of projected swords around him, casually stacked on the ground.
If an ordinary person saw this, they would be terrified.
"Unfortunately, this number of swords is clearly insufficient for any countermeasures..."
Shirou raised his eyes and looked up at the azure sky.
"Is there any way for me to easily 'copy' a huge number of Noble Phantasms?"
He certainly knew that finding Gilgamesh was the quickest way.
But now that they're rushing over there so eagerly, it really seems like they're going to deliver something they're seriously ill for.
"So, it would be better to have a Servant to assist you..."
After conducting the projection experiment, Shirou quickly left the park.
"I do have some pocket money left, but I don't know if it's enough to buy the materials to draw the summoning circle..."
Shirou muttered to himself as he walked along the road as usual.
Suddenly, he heard a short, mournful cry.
“Ya ah€€€€”
That must have been a girl's scream, but it was drowned out the moment it made a sound.
However, with Shirou's five senses now comparable to those of a Heroic Spirit, he can still hear it if he concentrates.
Struggling, sobbing, crying... the man's sinister laughter was clearly audible.
Shirou's gaze immediately locked onto a certain direction.
"there!"
He immediately rushed towards an alleyway, and as he got closer, he finally saw the man's back as he slowly turned around.
