Jobless Reincarnation: Emiya the Great Hero Must Show His True Skills

Upon observing this, Luo Qixi finally remembered.

She felt like she had seen that glowing phenomenon somewhere before; it turned out to be the magic university from back then.

The color of the sky was very similar to the light emitted by the summoning magic that the teacher taught him in his first lesson.

However, the summoning magic demonstrated in class obviously did not have such a huge range, much less cause the entire sky to change color abnormally.

"That direction is east... Is it the Kingdom of Asura?"

Luo Qixi looked at the direction in which the sky was acting strangely, her brows furrowing even more.

A strong sense of unease gave her a huge impulse, and she even made the decisive choice to leave the Kingdom of Xilong, where she had been for a long time, and set off on the road back to the Kingdom of Asura.

For this reason, the seventh prince, Pakussilon, who was being taught by Lokishi, was very dissatisfied and even wanted to use his power to keep Lokishi here.

But not only did he fail, he was also severely reprimanded by the king.

Despite this incident, Loki still embarked on her journey back to the Kingdom of Asura.

……

At the same time, atop the fortress in the sky.

One of the three heroes who helped humanity defeat the demons, Perkius, the Ankylosaurus, looked down at the northern sky, his brows furrowing even more deeply.

"What is that? It looks a lot like the light when the Demon Emperor was resurrected."

Beside Percius, a Celestial woman wearing a white raven mask and possessing black wings spoke in a low voice.

"No, magic is different in nature."

Ankylosaurus responded in a steady voice, "If we're going to categorize it, it's actually more like a summoning light."

“Summoning? I remember now, such a large-scale summoning light… I recall it.”

“That’s right, it looks very similar to the scene when I created the Sky Fortress.”

Percius nodded and stood up from his seat.

As the master of the aerial fortress, he spends almost every day sitting on his throne, leading twelve servants, watching over the earth day and night.

His only goal was to defeat his hated enemy, the demon Laplace, as soon as he was resurrected. So he waited in the air for the seal on Laplace to be broken.

He has been waiting for this for five hundred years.

Over the long course of time, almost any movement on the ground would attract Percius's attention, but only a very few events would catch his eye.

In recent years, the only time this Ankylosaurus has attracted attention on the ground was at the weapon auction of the legendary blacksmith Muramasa.

Although Ankylosaurus was arrogant and had no interest in ordinary weapons, Muramasa's weapon was completely different and gave him a sense of novelty he had never experienced before.

Even as one of the three heroes, Percius was fascinated by the mysterious blacksmith Muramasa.

Therefore, at Muramasa's first few auctions, Percius even concealed his identity, went to the auction, and bid on one of the weapons.

The weapons that could attract Percius's attention and even prompt him to make a purchase were certainly not ordinary items.

That was a weapon called the Gem Sword Zelrich.

The weapon itself is just a narrow short sword, but it contains terrifying magic power that is almost beyond human comprehension, and it also gives birth to a kind of magic that cannot be understood by common sense.

However, when Muramasa Buddha provided this item, he specifically stated that the [Gem Sword Zelrich] he forged was only an unfinished product.

Due to limitations in materials and skills, he was unable to create the true [Gem Sword Zelrich], but only forged a degraded version.

Because it is a degraded version, this weapon not only has extremely high requirements for use, requiring the user to be at least an Emperor-level mage, but even for Emperor-level mages, the effect they can exert is quite limited, only able to disperse magic power in a concentrated form as slashes.

Because of these restrictions, Shirou himself did not keep the Jewel Sword Zelrich for his own use, but instead put it up for auction.

Furthermore, he hadn't even considered that anyone would buy such a useless weapon, so he set a rather cheap price.

However, once the auction began, the overwhelming enthusiasm was beyond imagination.

Almost all the mages of Emperor rank and above in the world went crazy trying to buy this weapon, but in the end, the Ankylosaurus King was the one who got it.

After all, when the Ankylosaurus Percius revealed his true form, it would be almost impossible for humans to find a mage who could rival him.

After obtaining the jeweled sword, Percius returned directly to the aerial fortress.

He spent a long time studying the weapon afterward, and was amazed by the forger's unimaginable forging skills and boundless imagination.

Percius even considered meeting and talking with the blacksmith Muramasa himself.

However, because Muramasa's identity was too mysterious and almost no one knew about it, they had to give up.

In short, this demonstrates the status of Percius, the Ankylosaurus King.

Because of his high status, he rarely leaves the air fortress on a daily basis, and only pays attention to things that are noteworthy enough to attract his attention.

Faced with such a bizarre phenomenon, Percius has finally begun to experience emotional turmoil.

He looked at the northern sky, frowned, and muttered, "Could it be that the Demon Emperor is trying to break Laplace's seal?"

"This... is very possible. For the past three hundred years since his resurrection, the Demon Emperor has been behaving in a way that makes people feel uneasy."

Upon hearing his subordinate's statement, Percius nodded silently, then suddenly spoke:

"Almanfi!"

"exist."

A white-clad man wearing a yellow mask silently knelt down in front of Percius.

"You set off immediately to investigate... no, anyway, they're definitely not doing anything legitimate. Kill any suspicious individuals you find."

"As ordered."

Upon receiving orders from Pergius, the Ankylosaurus, a white-clad man named Almanfy suddenly took action, leaving the aerial fortress to investigate the area with the highest concentration of magical energy.

……

Holy Land of Swords.

【Sword God】Garfalion looked up at the southern sky.

"What's wrong with the sky... Hey!"

The moment the Sword God's attention was slightly diverted, his disciple's two Sword Emperors attacked him almost simultaneously, showing no respect for their elders.

The Sword God calmly blocked their attacks, and said with dissatisfaction, "You two are really disobedient brats. How could you take advantage of my distraction to launch a sneak attack?"

"..."

The two Sword Emperors responded to the Sword God's words with wry smiles and panting heavily.

They sparred with the Sword God every day, but the huge gap in strength made the practice no different from a one-sided beating. Naturally, they used every means possible, but still could not make any breakthrough.

The Sword God looked at the two boys, shook his head, and was utterly disappointed.

Although they became arrogant because they were called Sword Emperors, that was all they were capable of.

How boring, so incredibly boring! Swordsmanship needs no fame!

As long as I can become stronger, that's enough.

The only things you can gain from fame are power and money.

Those things have absolutely no value.

The kind of thing that anyone can have a chance to obtain can be cleaved in two with a single sword strike in the face of absolute power.

As long as you become stronger, you can do whatever you want.

Conversely, to become stronger, one needs to want to do whatever one wants.

To live is to do whatever you want.

Only by developing an obsession with living, a yearning, and an indelible desire can one continuously advance in the path of swordsmanship and even become as strong as him.

Of all the disciples of the Sword God, only Kyrie Ionian truly understands this aspect.

She used to be able to generate desire with just breathing every day, and the moment she grasped a sword, she would instinctively have the motivation to swing it.

But she has now lost that purity.

That's why he encountered a bottleneck only at the Sword King level.

The Sword God knew better than anyone that only those who yearn for power will become powerful.

But once a person truly becomes powerful, they lose the desire to become even stronger.

Whether it's Kyrie Irvine or the disciples of the two Sword Emperors, they all reached this point because of their shallow and filthy desires.

But that's all.

Once they reach the limits of their respective fields, they lose the motivation and greed to go further.

In this way, it's impossible to become stronger, let alone surpass oneself.

"Alright, alright! Bring it on! If you can defeat me, then you can kill each other and see who can call themselves the Sword God! Money that will allow you to live a life of pleasure for a hundred lifetimes will roll in, and women of all ages, from ordinary slaves to princesses, will line up with their butts sticking out, waiting for you to come and go. Just by announcing your name, everyone will be so scared that their legs will go weak, and every time you take a step, the crowd will automatically split into two sides to make way!"

"I didn't learn swordsmanship for that kind of thing!"

"Master! Please don't look down on us!"

The Sword God was very disappointed with the responses from the two Sword Emperors.

Why can't these two be more honest with themselves?

How could someone with such limited desires possibly kill someone like me and earn the title of Sword God?

When will someone appear who possesses such intense desire, a desire so great that it can devour everything and even drag down the gods from the heavens?

The Sword God shifted his gaze from the strange sky in the distance to the fantastical greatsword, the Fallen Demon, planted atop the Sacred Ground of Swords behind him.

Even he himself did not immediately have the courage to kill the dragon god when he obtained the dragon-slaying sword.

This shows that even this sword god's desires are nothing more than this.

Perhaps the limits of humanity are an insurmountable, cruel reality.

With a mix of regret and a hint of anticipation in his heart, the Sword God continued sparring with his two disciples.

He was both passing the time and waiting for the arrival of an heir who could surpass him and even achieve things he could not imagine.

Chapter 175 The Day the Great Transfer Occurred.

The unusual changes in the skies over the territory of Fituia have attracted worldwide attention.

Not only the Central Continent, but also the distant Demon Continent, have taken notice of the strange phenomena in this region.

The world's powerful figures were puzzled by this, and some even suspected it was a change in some kind of anomaly, raising all sorts of speculations and doubts.

And all of this will not affect the condition of the territory itself.

As the strange phenomena in the sky began to change drastically, Shirou was already rushing towards Buena Village at top speed.

Shirou, Alice, and Girenu spent two days traveling from Roya to the territory where Buena Village was located, as quickly as possible.

Unable to explain his urgency along the way, Shirou could only try to come up with various reasons to urge Alice and Kyrie Irvine to speed up.

As a result, Alice and Kyrie mistakenly thought that Shirou had been away from home for too long and had become too homesick.

Shirou had no way to explain this, so he could only accept it silently and was given the title of "Family Hero".

In short, Shirou soon saw the familiar hillside of Buena Village before his eyes, with the trees on the hilltop still as lush as ever.

The memories of his time studying and playing here with Rudeus and Sylphie seem still vivid.

I recall those familiar faces.

Shirou took a deep breath and instinctively sped up, eager to get back to his familiar mansion and leave the Fetoa territory with everyone from the Grerat family.

The strange phenomena in the sky have evolved into a clearly abnormal situation.

Not only Shirou, but even Alice and Kyrie Illumi would occasionally look up at the sky and notice that the black sphere was expanding at an extremely fast speed.

Of course, the two were clearly not as wary as Shirou.

Over the years, they had become completely accustomed to the existence of that black sphere, and even if it underwent unusual changes, they simply took it for granted.

Shirou didn't explain, and simply walked silently with Alice and Kyrie Irvine toward the Grellard's house.

Just as he was about to reach his familiar home, and even as the familiar faces of his family members were about to come into view, Shirou suddenly changed his expression and stopped in his tracks.

"what happened?"

Alice and Kyrie Illya looked at him, puzzled.
