Chapter 555

Shirou's figure fell from the sky, landing straight in front of the pitch-black, crimson Berserker exuding evil!

In an instant, the past regarding Heracles appeared in Emiya Shirou's mind!

The glorious Twelve Labors, the weeping while holding his tragically dead children; scenes of the past of this great hero of Greek mythology appeared before his eyes.

"Projection loading—", the boy's eyes were sharp and cold, the arm's magic circuits instantly pierced through his body!

"This is, Nine Lives Blade Works!!!", a giant sword appeared out of thin air and was gripped tightly in the boy's hands!

And at this moment, the Berserker exuding evil and ominousness had already rushed to his front; the sword wind he swung had even stirred up the giant trees behind him!

But it was at this very moment that Emiya Shirou moved, his figure disappearing from the spot like lightning!

The next moment, nine beams of aurora tore through Berserker's body; that terrifying sword light seemed to tear even this piece of the world apart!

Sword light flashed, Berserker's body froze in place, and nine deep gullies were plowed into the earth!

Flesh and blood filled the sky, Berserker roared incessantly, but eroded by evil, he could no longer feel any pain; there was only endless killing intent!

He raised his giant sword, intending to swing down and sever Emiya Shirou's head!

"Ahhhhhhhh!!!", but the boy was faster than this fallen Heroic Spirit!

In an instant, a blinding, explosive cold light flashed, and the terrifying sword wind tore through Berserker's body, leveling the forest behind him!

Emiya Shirou swung the final blade, and the entire world stood still at this moment!

And the giant sword Berserker swung stopped above Emiya Shirou's head... by not even a fraction.

Black mist filled the air, and Berserker's crimson eyes fell behind Emiya Shirou.

A moment later, the evil dissipated completely, and Berserker's spirit origin shattered, but at this moment, he was no longer Berserker, but the great hero of Greek mythology, Heracles.

"From now on, you protect her," Heracles looked at Illya with reluctance, then turned into crystalline light spots and dissipated on the spot.

Emiya Shirou nodded, the wind blowing on him, his clothes rustling.

But the battle was far from over; a pitch-black figure walked out from the depths of the forest—that was the Blackened Saber!

Fortunately, at this moment, Sakura suddenly sent a message for the Blackened Saber to return, avoiding a battle between the two.

But they both knew that a battle between the two was absolutely unavoidable!

Emiya Shirou brought Illya back home. That night, Emiya Shirou started dreaming again.

A blade suddenly pierced through his body, but it wasn't that someone was swinging a sword at him; rather, countless blades were emerging from within his body!

The heart-rending pain made him howl; he was like a hedgehog, with blades stuck all over his body!

The extreme pain woke Emiya Shirou from his dream. No... it wasn't a dream, it was real!

In an instant, Emiya Shirou curled up in pain, unable to even make a sound.

【Young Gilgamesh: "As expected, last time you had the Heroic Spirit card to gain that kind of power and still ended up in that state, let alone now. Big brother, you're really going to die."】

【Meruem: "The price of using power is too great; borrowed power is borrowed power in the end."】

【Kamijou Touma: "How can this be... there must still be a way to treat it!"】

【Accelerator: "This is the price of becoming a hero. Shouldn't you, of all people, know this best?"】

Across the Myriad Worlds

Everyone looked at the boy who was in agony and suddenly understood that the power just now, which was enough to kill the Blackened Berserker in seconds and even surpass Emiya the Hero, was completely exhausting his future.

If they weren't mistaken, that should be the Origin Sword inside Emiya Shirou running wild, right?

Once this power was used, the ending was already doomed, but now was not the time to consider the ending; what should be considered now is...

How long can Emiya Shirou hold on!

Whether it's becoming Sakura's ally or saving Illya, he hasn't accomplished those yet.

If they guessed correctly, the next part should be Emiya the Hero facing off against the Blackened Saber, right?

Chapter 269: Burning the Myriad Worlds! I am the bone of my sword! Noble Phantasm bombardment! King-slaying!!!

Several hours ago

In the Greater Grail

Assassin in a black robe walked out of the darkness. He looked at the girl kneeling on the ground, in agony, and said nothing, but a voice rang out first.

"Back just in time, Assassin," Matou Zouken's gloomy voice echoed in the Greater Grail.

Assassin replied, "Master Mage, you are still alive."

"That is natural, but now I cannot produce the magical energy to supply you. Sakura, although it will be a burden, you and Assassin must form a contract." Only Matou Zouken's voice could be heard, but his main body could not be found.

Kotomine Kirei had indeed purified him, but in hundreds of years of research, Matou Zouken had long since turned himself into a complete monster!

His main body would never appear directly in the public eye.

However, although he was still alive now, he was only one step away from death.

After Matou Zouken finished speaking, Sakura did not reply for a long time. She knelt on the ground like an empty shell without consciousness.

"Sakura?", Matou Zouken repeated.

"Master Mage, this woman has already...", Assassin said in a low voice, observing Sakura.

"Yes, this ending is truly abrupt," Matou Zouken said, as if lamenting and as if speaking like a victor, "Farewell, Sakura. You, this test subject, have lasted long enough and have let me watch enough good shows."

But the next moment, Sakura, who originally had no consciousness, suddenly raised her head, a strange, eerie smile appearing on her beautiful face, "There is no need for that—"

"....?", Hassan was so frightened that he took two steps back, and a small black figure appeared at his feet at some point.

The small figure extended tentacles and gently patted Hassan, and then Hassan was crushed into a sphere, letting out agonizing wails.

Assassin's bone mask fell to the ground, and that face without flesh and blood was exposed to Sakura's view.

"So what," Sakura said mockingly and uninterestingly, "In the end, you didn't have a face to begin with. You are just a nobody, unable to become that one and only true original."

"My name...", Assassin still wanted to struggle, but he left without even finishing his sentence.

"What... what are you doing, Sakura!", the old worm, frightened by this sudden change, was trembling as he spoke!

"Because, Grandfather, you no longer need him to protect me," Sakura revealed an eerie smile, then reached directly into her own chest with her hand!

"Why did Grandfather appear so powerful before me, able to manipulate me as he pleased? For this, I checked carefully."

Then, a hideous and terrifying worm was pulled out alive, "You replaced part of my nerves, didn't you?"

Sakura grabbed the worm, an indescribably eerie smile on her face, "I originally even felt that you, Grandfather, shouldn't be so insignificant."

"Farewell, Grandfather," her fair palm exerted a little force, and Matou Zouken was directly squeezed into meat paste.

"Brother, and Grandfather, both disappeared. In this way, in this way... I..."

Sakura hugged herself, making a sound that was like crying and laughing.

"It's not over yet," at some point, the Blackened King stood before Sakura, reminding her that it wasn't over yet.

They will definitely come!

【Aqua: "Puhahahahaha! Old man Matou Zouken, let your good granddaughter say a few heart-to-heart words to you~!"】

【Gabriel: "The most righteous episode! This old worm is finally dead! Looking at that old face really disgusted me!"】

【Lan Mu: "Another master of self-destruction who played himself to death. How could you think that a girl bearing the evils of this world could be controlled by you forever?"】

【Kyubey: "This is probably what the Earth idiom 'spinning a cocoon around oneself' means... Hmm? Is something wrong?"】

【Chaotic Evil Gudako: "You're right, Kyubey (the God-creating creator who created two true gods)."】

【Justeaze: "Makiri, why go to such lengths? Is living really that important?"】

【Matou Zouken: "... Shut up! What do you know? You're just... just a doll without feelings!!!"】

Fate World

Fifth Holy Grail War Era

Matou Zouken let out a hoarse, sharp laugh. Didn't he go to all lengths to turn himself into this neither-human-nor-ghost state just to survive!

But now, he was squeezed to death by Sakura in one go!

Ridiculous... it's simply too ridiculous!!!

There was no humiliation, nor anger; there was only the fear of death and the desire for life.

The justice in his heart had long since mutated and twisted to the extreme.
