Xingtie: Can’t you just let me focus on completing the commissions?

"Even though he's no longer that person, he still became a loyal dog protecting the wishing machine, and shamelessly showed up in front of me with that card."

"Is it that? The choice of the inhibitor? You are destined to become an obstacle in my path?"

A chilling killing intent began to surface in his eyes, and a surging chill, following his will, further enveloped the upper body of the young Shirou.

"Dream Summoning—!"

Without any hesitation, young Shirou chose the only possibility he could possibly struggle with at this moment. The power of the Heroic Spirit Emiya descended upon him, and the instant the magical energy surged, it shattered part of the icy shell covering his body.

Without hesitation, he swiftly projected multiple "swords" that shot towards the uninvited guest who was right in front of him.

but……

His only response was a crisp snap of the fingers. As the snap fell, the shooting blade was displaced by space, rushing out from behind Shirou before he could react, locking onto his heart, as if it would pierce it in the next second.

The white-haired girl behind him frowned slightly, then suddenly reached out and grabbed the sword just before it pierced her 'sworn brother's' heart.

"You almost lost your life because of such a crude trick. Shirou, you really are a terrible warrior."

As the white-haired girl spoke, she crushed the two projected swords, and a surge of chill began to emanate from her body, shattering the ice layers enveloping the Einzbern family. She then took a step forward, exuding a very imposing aura.

"Since you've already committed the killing, there's no turning back. Have you thought about how you're going to die, Magician?"

"..."

Sensing the white-haired girl's condition, the uninvited guest narrowed his eyes slightly. Suddenly, hysterical laughter erupted on the film set.

"I see, the second protector?"

"How much does the inhibitory force hate 'her'? It sets up so many obstacles even for me to fulfill her tiny wish."

"After Shirou Emiya, you yourself will also become a 'Master,' and your true name is... 'Shitone'? A heroine from Ainu mythology? No, you have a weakened version of divinity... Your spirit origin is very abnormal."

The moment Shido's true name was revealed, the heroine acted without hesitation, unleashing a roar like that of a wild beast. The terrifying sonic waves materialized into a physical impact, hurtling towards the uninvited guest.

And that person's reaction was quick as well.

As the sonic shockwave struck, a large amount of frozen cold air formed a seemingly transparent but actually extremely hard ice shield in front of him.

"Walk!"

Without hesitation, Shido gave the order to everyone present. In the instant he turned around, he charged out like a carnivorous beast in the mountains, smashing the key load-bearing pillar of the Emiya family mansion. At the same time, he quickly shattered two walls and fled to the outside.

Seeing this, young Shirou did not hesitate and quickly led Sera and Lyselle to follow Shidon and escape.

After they fled, the Emiya family mansion collapsed with a roar, and the uninvited guest was buried in the rubble. About twenty or thirty seconds later...

When the uninvited guest (Li Hao) emerged from the ruins, his eyes had turned sinister.

"The important Lesser Grail has actually turned into a 'Master,' but this time I won't repeat the same mistake."

"Shirou Emiya, Shido... you must be the priority targets for elimination."

"I will not give you another chance to win..."

Thinking of Shirou Emiya's earlier wish to completely disable Miyu Sakuzuki's wish-granting machine, waves of anger still surged within him uncontrollably.

If it weren't for that guy,

There's no need for me to specifically come to this world to seek a weakened Lesser Grail.

If it weren't for that guy,

His wish had already been fulfilled, and there was absolutely no need to borrow the power of those remnants of the Demon God Pillar... Fire...

"Only you, Shirou Emiya, only you, regardless of which world you're from, are an unforgivable bastard!!!"

[P.S.: There should be more updates; I'm writing them now.]

Chapter 228: Love Song, Love Song, Love. (Supplement 1)

"It seems that all seven Servants have appeared in the world?"

The riot involving the Shadow Servants had just subsided when Emiya stood before the gates of Mt. Enzo, overlooking the entire Fuyuki region.

The appearance of the seven Servants signifies the official start of the Holy Grail War. This message was transmitted through the spiritual veins, like an emotion that arose on a whim.

"Emiya, what are you doing standing in front of the mountain gate?"

Ryudouji Temple's head priest's second son, and also Shirou Emiya's best friend from high school, Ryudou Kazunari appeared behind him.

"It's so windy, aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"

"It's okay, I'm a sports student."

"Does this have anything to do with athletes? I practice Shugendo regularly, and this gloomy wind just doesn't feel right."

"is it?"

Perhaps because he was already immune to heat and cold, Emiya did not notice any change in temperature, only that the wind in Fuyuki City was a bit strong.

"The weather forecast said that the next week should be sunny, and there shouldn't be such strong winds. The weather forecast shouldn't be wrong for this level of wind."

Was the weather forecast wrong?

Emiya raised his eyebrows slightly, then looked thoughtfully at the distant sky. It was already late at night, and there wasn't a single star or moon in the distance. It was almost certain that tomorrow's weather would be cloudy and rainy.

but,

The weather forecast says it will be sunny for a week?

However, weather inaccuracies are not uncommon in island nations.

However, the timing of this error seems to be a little sensitive.

"Ichisei, you, your father, and your brothers should leave Fuyuki City as soon as possible."

"Emiya, what do you mean by that?"

"This wind is a harbinger of an even larger storm. Leave before it arrives."

"And what about you, Emiya?"

"I?"

Emiya chuckled softly, turned around, and opened the Aurora Veil in front of Ryudou Kazunari, speaking without any pretense.

"I'm going to meet those guys who're planning to stir up trouble."

……

"Ilya... have you been dragged into this war too?"

Staring at the white-haired girl dressed in Ainu clothing, the young Shirou's expression was filled with undisguised anger.

why?

Even a child like Ilya has to get involved in this kind of thing?

"Watch your tone, Shirou."

Miss Shido narrowed her eyes slightly, her wild senses spreading outwards from her, capturing any possible signs of danger. She spoke to the young Shirou,

"I could let it go before, but the person standing in front of you now is a real elder. You should call me sister."

"..."

The young Shirou's expression became very subtle. In such an urgent moment, his sister was about to do a somersault and step on his head. What kind of sister was she?

"In the previous battles, he was a complete novice on the battlefield, seemingly unaccustomed to the battlefield, yet he liked to show off."

"That's not showing off!"

"Shirou! Now it's time for your older sister to speak!"

For some reason, the white-haired girl was unusually emphasizing her position as the older sister. Shirou sighed slightly, completely baffled by Illya's current state...

“That guy was dangerous. Shirou, if you faced him alone, you have no chance of winning.”

Having said that, Ilya took out a strange staff from her pocket and then spoke again.

"Ruby, I need your power now."

"My power is only..."

"Stop nagging, let me use it!"

This directly extinguished any further intention from the strange staff, and Ilya began to sing an ancient and mystical song.

The Servant whose true name is Shido is one of the very few surviving "Heroic Legends" of the Ainu race.

In the Ainu pronunciation, it should be called "Sitonai".

This heroic young girl from the living legends of divine power, at only thirteen years old, single-handedly faced a giant serpent that countless Ainu people could not withstand.

In the ancient mythology of the Ainu people, it is believed that all things in the world possess a spirit/divinity, and the giant serpent that ravaged villages and devoured people is also regarded as one of the evil gods.

The heroic young woman who single-handedly slew such an evil god naturally possessed a certain degree of mythical achievement.

"Rabbit, rabbit... Mountain spirit running on four legs..."

The divine prayer emanated from the girl's throat, transforming into streams of strange energy that fell upon herself and the others.

"The rabbit's 'divine power' will make you more agile and more sensitive to danger."

"Next, we need to find areas where the 'mountains' and 'water veins' are more active, but for me right now, crushing... and dealing with that guy is a bit difficult."

"If we're talking about the literal meaning, the only mountain range nearby is Mount Enzo, and as for water... the only one is probably the Mien River."

After pondering for a moment, young Shirou gave what he felt was the most appropriate answer.

"Then let's use Mount Enzang as a center. I can summon more 'Divine Might' to help us."

"Kamui?"

“Animales with spiritual qualities can become our fighting force if they are imbued with ‘divine power.’ If there is a primeval forest, even the ancient trees can become our strength.”

By harnessing the power of nature?

However, young Shirou couldn't help but recall what his adult self had said about Pandora's box. What if... the other side threw that overflowing black mud into the battle again?

Will bringing this danger to Yuanzang Mountain lead to the peril of Yicheng, his family, and the monks on the mountain?

"However, now that things have come to this, the city is no longer safe. We must get Kazunari and the others out of Fuyuki City as soon as possible."

……

Good evening, big brother.

In the long, dark, moonless night, the light from the streetlights seemed to be drawn to something, falling upon a young girl.

A pure and innocent smile of joy shone on her fairy-like face.

"Could you accompany me for a short walk?"

She extended an invitation to the man she was meeting for the first time, her childlike face adorned with a warm smile that was impossible for anyone to refuse.

but,

If one knew the true nature of the girl before them,

They probably wouldn't even be attracted by that smile.

One might even perceive the smile as extremely cold and cruel.

but,

At this moment, the man facing this young woman would not be easily swayed by her true nature.

after all,

He had prepared himself mentally years ago, and had even searched the world for any trace of her.

But it's a pity...

"Speaking of which, I actually searched for you all over the world a few years ago... but unfortunately, I never had the chance to meet you."

"It's a rare treat to meet you today, little sister Aika. How about we find an izakaya and have a couple of drinks?"

"Hmm~ But I'm still a minor, big brother."

"You, the Princess of the Root, still care about these things? Fine, how about I cook a couple of dishes myself, and we can have a late-night snack to celebrate our first meeting?"

“Big brother, you’re so kind. In that case, I’ll take my leave of you. However, I don’t like being called ‘Princess of the Origin.’ Please address me as ‘Miss Aika’ or ‘Miss Ash’ in a more affectionate way.”
