TM : [141] Unlimited Blade Works
🕑 Added 2023-11-21 16:00:08 +0000 UTCKazuya didn't rush to the scene.
As usual, he carefully stored the original script with alchemy, washed his face to freshen up, and then rushed towards Ryuudou Temple nearby.
He touched the Command Spells on his hand and took a deep breath. "For what comes next... I'll summon him with three Command Spells... if it's him, even facing three Heroic Spirits simultaneously should end the battle. Though it might be a bit hard to control... no, quite challenging. But... I only need to assert control over this body for a while... that should be enough!"
Boom, boom...
In the sky, lightning flashed, and Kazuya saw clearly on the horizon—Rider's Noble Phantasm, Gordius Wheel, speeding through the air.
"Hmm? I didn't expect Rider and them to be so close. Perfect... when I arrive, I'll take care of them all!"
Kazuya thought, increasing his speed as he rushed ahead.
At this distance, there was no need for a vehicle; running was faster.
...
"Alalalalalalal——————"
"A chariot? King of Conquerors?" Archer quickly stepped back.
Berserker also halted nearby.
Even though the two of them had been in combat for a while, neither had been injured. Archer found it challenging to kill Berserker unexpectedly without using his Reality Marble. However, the occasional sneak attack on the Greater Grail was enough to prevent Berserker from going all out.
"Haha, it seems Caster hasn't arrived yet. I'm curious about the power he'll bring this time," King of Conqueror's chariot stopped atop the ruins of Ryuudou Temple, laughing.
The next moment, Archer, and Emiya Kiritsugu who was watching from a distance with his sniper rifle, both narrowed their eyes.
Their focus was on the woman in the King of Conqueror's chariot.
"Irisviel?" Emiya Kiritsugu gritted his teeth, thinking it couldn't be. Irisviel wasn't supposed to be in Fuyuki City; he had kept her hidden. Moreover, Maiya was with her, and if anything had gone wrong, there should have been a call. So what was happening?
"No, no, no," Waver quickly realized what Archer was thinking and said, "This isn't Irisviel... she's a new Lesser Grail sent by Einzbern. After all, that Mage Killer, Emiya Kiritsugu, didn't bring her here, right? With her here, there's no need to continue the Holy Grail War. So, we prepared a Lesser Grail, and now it feels like the right time, so we brought her here."
"Archer, get that Homunculus!" Emiya Kiritsugu said, communicating through his connection with Archer. He could understand what Waver was saying.
In general, according to the manga created by Kurokawa Kazuya at the intervention of Wizard Marshall, he wasn't supposed to do anything like this, especially with King of Conquerors nearby. But... although Wizard Marshall had said this, King of Conquerors might really have that kind of personality.
But even so, Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't afford to take the risk. He had already put everything on the line, and now... he didn't want to lose anything more.
"I understand," Archer said, beginning to chant the incantation for his Reality Marble, "I am the bone of my sword..."
"Slow down! I'm telling the truth! It's really like that!" Waver hurriedly said.
"Steel is my body, and fire is my blood..."
"No, it looks like this guy has made up his mind and doesn't believe it..."
King of Conquerors intervened, blocking Waver who wanted to say more, "Fine! Let me see what you bear, bearing all your burdens!"
"I have created over a thousand blades..."
"Roar!" Berserker, sensing the familiar danger, roared and charged towards Archer.
"Unknown to Death, nor known to Life."
In the distance, Emiya Kiritsugu called Maiya on the phone to confirm the situation here with her.
"Rho Aias——"
Boom—
Berserker's full-force attack struck the purple shield. Archer chanted while backing away.
"I have withstood pain to create many weapons."
"Maiya, is everything okay on your end?" Emiya Kiritsugu asked quickly upon connecting the call.
"Yes, everything's fine. Madam and Miss are both safe. Is something wrong?" Maiya inquired with a hint of confusion.
"No, nothing," Emiya Kiritsugu sighed in relief. "Let Irisviel take the call."
However... even so, there was no need to give up.
After all, Archer had fully completed his incantation, and now was the time to try to deal with Berserker and Rider—no harm in attempting it.
"Yet, those hands will never hold anything."
"Phew, that was close—I almost missed it again. Wind Mode!" Kazuya used hid leg to activate this technique from Pillar Man, Wamuu, momentarily increasing his speed as he reached out for Archer.
"So as I pray, Unlimited Blade Works——"
Boom——————!!!
The earth seemed to crumble, and the space underwent a transformation.
In an instant, the ruins of Ryuudou Temple turned into a wasteland filled with infinite swords.
"It looks like I caught up this time," Kazuya said with a slight smile.
Within the Reality Marble of Unlimited Blade Works.
Himself, Berserker, Rider, Archer—all of the currently existing Heroic Spirits were gathered here.
On the other side, Archer, who had activated the Reality Marble, received the message passed on by Emiya Kiritsugu and let out a small sigh of relief. "As you can see, this is Unlimited Blade Works, and... don't think that what you saw in that manga represents my full strength. I'm much stronger now than I was back then!"
