Chapter 1225

【Re-contracting with Rin Tohsaka definitely won't work; that would only lower Rin Tohsaka's output, thereby causing both himself and Artoria to be unable to exert their full power.】

【Don't even think about Shirou Emiya; not to mention the ideological issues, he doesn't want to follow in Artoria's footsteps and be a power-saving king.】

【Headache, making it so troublesome—】

Archer: "ε=(′ο｀*))) Sigh..."

Never mind himself in the video, he feels a headache just watching it.

He could have tried to achieve a perfect ending, but because of Shirou Emiya and Rin Tohsaka's unreliability, it has now become such an awkward situation.

He in the video is also the same, what is he hiding and tucking for? Can't he just point out the key points to Rin Tohsaka directly? He has to be a riddle-maker.

But given Rin Tohsaka's personality, unless she sees it with her own eyes, it's indeed difficult to make her believe that the priest has a problem.

He can see that he in the video says he wants to kill Shirou Emiya, but he is actually showing mercy everywhere; isn't he just cultivating the guy?

Hmph, hypocritical man—

Wait? Why am I scolding myself here?

【"Archer, your wish is wrong!"】

【At the same time, Rin Tohsaka also tells Artoria Archer's identity; the other party is first confused, then somewhat helpless and sorrowful.】

【What kind of situation is this! A perfectly good young man, how did he become like this!】

【"Why—why would you hope for this kind of result? Even if you kill Shirou Emiya, you also..."】

【"Hmph, wrong, huh."】

【Archer snorts coldly: "That's what I should say, Saber. You're the one; how long are you going to hold onto that wrong wish?"】

【Artoria: "Archer..."】

【Archer: "You didn't leave nothing behind. Can't you treat that ending as the result you obtained after trying your best?"】

【He can see that although Artoria says she has let go, she actually still carries a little bit of expectation.】

【What if it worked out...】

【This is human nature, and it is also common human emotion.】

Waver: "Wishful thinking, huh... Indeed, everyone will have such thoughts."

Waver: "Even if they see the established facts, people will still give birth to a trace of wishful thinking; this is human nature."

Artoria: "..."

Can you two not sing in harmony like this? It's like you're mocking her.

【With nothing more to say, Artoria can only guard herself again.】

【She hasn't forgotten that Archer's strongest point is not his dual blades, but his bow and arrow.】

【The kind that took away one of Heracles' lives in one strike.】

【Although he has been playing with dual blades, don't really forget his identity as an Archer.】

【And Archer at this time seems to have finally reacted, remembering that he is an Archer, and immediately projects a longbow.】

【"Let me show you my essence. This is what I can do."】

【Thanks to Medea; although her arm was injured during the great battle with Cu Chulainn earlier, the mana this woman provided him was too much, and there is still some left even now.】

Caster: "Heh (cold laugh)..."

If your thanks is backstabbing me, then I'd rather not have this kind of thanks.

【"The greatest return gift for you. My only goal now is to kill Shirou Emiya. If you want to stop me, even if I become your enemy in this world, I will never show mercy."】

【The chant finished, a ball of crimson flame explodes from Archer's feet and rushes in all directions.】

【Rin Tohsaka stares dumbfoundedly at Archer; doesn't the guy only know projection and reinforcement magic?】

【Soon, a wall of fire surrounds the surroundings, and countless gravel appears at everyone's feet.】

【The surrounding space has undergone earth-shaking changes.】

【Endless dark clouds and the light of dusk spill onto the earth; densely packed long swords are inserted into the ground like graves, and huge gears are turning on the horizon in the distance.】

Zabiko: "It appeared, it's a Reality Marble!"

Blonde Rin: "Although the world Nameless and Archer lived in before is different, the experience template is exactly the same."

Jinako: "After all, they are both Shirou Emiya."

Iskandar: "Hmm, compared to the incomplete Reality Marble used by that Shirou Emiya before, this is the complete appearance."

Avicebron: "I can feel that this world is like a large casting furnace."

Roche: "Casting furnace?"

Kairi Sisigou: "In other words, it's no longer projection, but casting, right."

【"This is, a Reality Marble!"】

【Rin Tohsaka says in shock: "A great forbidden spell that manifests the inner landscape and erodes the real world. In other words, you are not an Archer, nor a Saber, you are a Caster!"】

【Archer: "That's right, before becoming a Heroic Spirit, I was a mage."】

【Artoria: "Archer, is your Noble Phantasm this?"】

【Archer: "Because I have neither a Holy Sword nor a Magic Sword. All I have is this world. If a Noble Phantasm is the symbol of a Heroic Spirit, this Reality Marble is my Noble Phantasm."】

【"Any weapon, once I see its prototype, I can copy and store it here; this is me. My ability as a Heroic Spirit."】

Gilgamesh: "Hmph, what a big-mouthed mongrel, claiming to be able to cast any weapon."

This Reality Marble, no matter how I look at it, feels like it's aimed at me.

Archer: "Heh, big-mouthed or not, we'll know after a fight."

Gilgamesh: "Then you better look forward to it, the sight of me piercing you into fragments."

【Artoria: "Did you pass away in such a wilderness? Archer..."】

【Looking at the desolate land around, how are these iron swords inserted in the ground different from the mountain of corpses and sea of blood she saw before she died?】

【These iron swords are just like so many lost, living lives.】

【Archer: "Heh heh, you dare to say that, Saber. Do you want to try? I can copy your Holy Sword for you to see too."】

【Looking at everything around, Shirou Emiya's headache becomes even more severe.】

【The incantation of the "Unlimited Blade Works" magic constantly echoes in his mind.】

【I know what this abnormal magic is; I can understand it.】

【I should be unable to understand it, but I can just interpret it.】

【Magic, understanding, interpretation; just by looking at it once, he has a vague influence on how to use "Unlimited Blade Works".】

【Those various swords inserted in the ground, the names of these swords constantly appear in Shirou Emiya's eyes; the massive amount of memory makes his brain boil.】

【These are all famous swords, not ordinary iron!】

【This is the furnace of the world, a factory that can forge countless swords; the flames burning fiercely at the edge of the world are the furnace.】

【At this moment, Shirou Emiya understands, understanding where he differs from Archer.】

【He projects Kanshou and Bakuya, while Archer directly forged Kanshou and Bakuya in his inner world.】

【These endless swords are all things Archer witnessed while traversing various eras.】

【The owners of these famous swords might have all fought with Archer, who is a Guardian.】

Rin Tohsaka: "What the hell? Understood it just by looking?"

Extra Feng Xi: "It's fine, this is normal operation; don't forget there is the example of Shirou Emiya before."

Rin Tohsaka: "Ah, this..."

That Shirou Emiya can't be compared at all; it can simply be described as reaching the sky in one step.

【Artoria: "My Holy Sword... are you saying you know its true form, Archer?"】

【Once the words were out, my King felt she had said something useless.】

【The other party is Shirou Emiya, the Master who fought alongside her in another world; how could he not know.】

【Archer: "Of course. Although its rank is too high to be completely copied, I can make it nearly identical to the real thing. But what will happen then? When two Holy Swords clash, can the humans around still survive?"】

【"What! Archer, you!"】

【This sentence instantly extinguished Artoria's intention to use her ultimate move.】

【Better to believe it's true than to believe it's not; she doesn't dare to gamble.】

Blonde Rin: "This guy (─. ─||), he's really cunning."

Rin Tohsaka: "He doesn't blush or skip a beat when telling big lies, just saying whatever comes to mind."

Jinako: "This is clearly a bluff; even if he could create a Holy Sword, with Archer's current mana, he probably couldn't do it."

Having lost the mana supply from his Master and having opened a Reality Marble, the mana in Archer's body should be consuming rapidly now; where would he have the mana to forge a Holy Sword.】

Extra Feng Xi: "This is what they call 'the person involved is confused, the bystander is clear'."】
