Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

Thinking of this, Emiya's hand holding the knife trembled slightly, not because of sadness, but because of anger.

"They should not exist in the world!"

After kneeling for several hours, Emiya inserted the Sun Blade in his hand into the mound of earth where the boy was buried.

The sunlight also shone through the layers of leaves and shone on the green Sun Blade.

At the same time, it also shone on Emiya's resolute eyes!

Chapter 16 Breath of the Wind

Accompanied by the morning dew, the sunlight shone through the layers of leaves and shone on the road in front of Emiya like fish scales.

The whole forest was no longer as heavy and desolate as at night, as if it had encountered a gushing mountain spring, and it was full of vitality.

Whether it was the rustling sound of the breeze blowing the leaves, or the joyful singing of the birds awakened by the sun, all indicated that the danger had passed.

"Projection Start"

As Emiya's words fell, a silver-white light appeared on his right hand, and a samurai sword with emerald green was tightly held by him.

This is the samurai sword in the hands of the young man who had fought before.

He had analyzed it and could now project it smoothly.

But whether it has the same effect as that sword, cutting off the neck of the demon and killing it, Emiya could not guarantee it.

Emiya's analysis of the Sun Blade was as simple as his analysis of some household appliances at home.

Without mystery and magic, Emiya easily found that the Sun Blade was forged from ore containing the power of the sun, so it has the ability to kill demons.

But Emiya was not sure whether the samurai sword he projected had the ability to kill demons.

The Sun Blade can kill demons only with the power of ore containing the sun, and the sword he projected was a magic creation.

He could only take one step at a time.

Emiya thought that he could only wait until he met a demon again to try whether the projected Sun Blade had the ability to kill demons.

"But--"

Holding the emerald green Sun Blade, Emiya felt his breathing become stronger and more regular. He could feel his body gradually becoming more alive under such a continuous breathing cycle.

Emiya could feel the fatigue from a night of fighting slowly disappearing. Although the effect was not obvious, Emiya could still feel the changes in his body.

"What is this?"

Holding the projected sword, Emiya felt some memory flooding into his mind, some kind of sword-using technique.

He followed the guidance of his body and held the sword tightly in his hand. A very long breath burst out from the corner of his mouth, and the air around him also began to rotate with him as the center.

"It seems to be called-Wind Breathing Type 1 Dust Whirlwind·Slashing!"

A powerful shock wave accompanied by spiral wind blades went straight in front of Emiya, and countless wind blades circled around. In just a few seconds, the entire area was covered with scratches, as if it was destroyed by someone who was waving a samurai sword recklessly.

"Cough!"

A trace of blood spit out from the corner of Shigong's mouth.

He felt pain all over his body, and traces of blood appeared on Shigong's body.

When he was halfway through the performance, Shigong found that he had no power to control it.

Now he felt as if his neck was suddenly strangled by someone and he couldn't breathe.

Even if he had memories and experience, his body couldn't support it.

Although the new breathing method made Shigong's body better, it was more rejected by the body.

Just like a baby who still uses a pacifier to drink water, but asks him to drink water like a normal person, even if he has the ability to drink water like this, his body does not allow him to drink water like this, and he will basically be choked by the water.

And Shigong is in this state of being choked.

Tanjiro also needs to practice constantly when learning the breathing method, instead of staying at the waterfall to gain insights. Learning the breathing method is like a baby learning to walk. It is a gradual process. It is not only about learning to use the breathing method, but more importantly, it is about adapting your body to the power brought by the breathing method.

The darkness gradually drowned Emiya's eyes, just like falling in the hotel, Emiya felt that his life was gradually passing away.

And the Sun Wheel Sword in his hand also lost the support of magic, and suddenly turned into stars and dissipated.

The fresh forest air also rushed towards Emiya's throat.

"He-ha-he-ha"

Emiya knelt on the ground and gasped like a drowning person.

"It's so uncomfortable!"

Emiya, who recovered, slowly stood up, breathing without any regularity in his mouth.

If the breathing method requires a long time to adapt, then Emiya's behavior just now can only be called eating a big fat man in one bite.

"Is this the power that can kill demons?"

Thinking carefully about what happened just now, Emiya felt that if he had time, he would definitely need to practice. The more methods he could use to deal with demons, the better.

The two sides of the road were neatly lined with street lamps of various colors, and poles of electric poles stood in the middle of the street.

Around the electric poles were orange-red grass, and the layout of the entire street looked very prosperous, with gorgeous colors everywhere.

"Is this the town the old man was talking about?"

Emiya simply bandaged his wounds and quickly walked in the direction he had gone before. He didn't want to stay in the forest for another night.

Moreover, because of the previous battle, Emiya didn't know where the food he brought with him was thrown away. If he didn't get to the town, he would have to continue to starve.

And the pedestrians on the road also looked at Emiya standing in the middle of the street with disgust. After all, he didn't have a real bandage to bandage his wounds, and could only use clothes to bandage them simply, so his body was full of scarlet blood.

Moreover, he was carrying two knives. If it weren't for his very young face, he would look exactly like a murderer who had just killed people in the mountains.

However, on such a prosperous street, there were only a few scattered passers-by and some people who were cleaning.

Many of these people were yawning as if they were sleepy.

Most of the shops on the street were closed.

It was almost noon, but the busy street looked very desolate, as if this time should be the time for sleeping at night.

"It's so strange."

Emiya looked at the desolate scene on the street and could only mutter in his heart.

"I have no money now, I have to find a place where I can live, and then find out what this place is like."

Emiya quickly understood what he needed most now.

At this stage, he had to find a place in this place where he could settle down and communicate with the outside world, and then he could do what he wanted to do in this place and arrange his next itinerary.

Chapter 17 The warm-hearted red-haired boy

"Table 13 - Tempura"

"Table 27 - Soba"

One after another, shouts came from the restaurant.

Sweat kept dripping from Emiya's forehead.

At this time, Emiya's figure kept moving in the kitchen, looking extremely busy.

"Emiya, the restaurant's business has improved since you came!"

After the peak period, the boss, who was a little pot-bellied, patted Emiya on the shoulder and couldn't help but smile.

Since Emiya became a chef, the entire turnover has increased several times, and life has become richer and richer.

"No, these are what I should do. If it weren't for you, the boss, taking me in, I might have starved to death on the roadside."

Emiya shook the boss's hand gratefully. If it weren't for the boss's timely help, Emiya might really have to find an alley.

"Don't be modest. I don't know where you are from. Not only are you so handsome, but your cooking skills are also amazing. The chefs in the restaurant are all impressed by your cooking skills."

"No, these..."

Seeing that Emiya was still going to be modest, the boss waved his hand.

"You've worked hard these days. You've always worked so hard that even young people can't handle it. You haven't been out to see Yoshiwara's sightseeing. Today, I'll allow you to take a break and enjoy yourself."

"No..."

Emiya began to refuse habitually.

But the boss seemed to have expected Emiya's attitude, and directly pushed him out of the restaurant, and then closed the door with force.

"Just come back tomorrow morning!"

"Hey!"

Emiya sighed at the door of the restaurant.

He has been in this town for about a month, and has basically figured out most of the things in this world.

First of all, it's a matter of time. According to the history that Emiya has learned, Japan is now in the Taisho era, which is a relatively stable period, and technology is also steadily rising.

The second is the information about the monster that can't see the sun like a vampire.

It's basically the same as what Emiya guessed before. Ordinary people don't know the existence of ghosts, and just regard it as a feudal superstition.

The existence of ghosts, like the existence of magicians on his side, was covered up by someone with ulterior motives. Emiya had no source of information about the other world, so he could only search around on his own.

And the good news was that Emiya's proficiency in projection magic had greatly increased, and he could also skillfully use the emerald green Sun Blade to release the Breath of Wind moves.

The bad news was that Emiya seemed unable to grasp the feeling of breathing, and he could only use Breath of Wind when he projected the Sun Blade.

Even after a month of experience, Emiya still could not use the breathing method without projection. He always felt a barrier, as if this breathing method was not suitable for him.

As for strengthening magic, it was still the same, without much change, and basically maintained a stable state no matter how much he practiced.

He also found that once he projected something other than a sword, the consumption of magic power was very huge, and basically all his magic power would be consumed after only a short projection.

During this month, Emiya did not encounter any man-eating ghosts, or those who killed ghosts. Just like his life in Fuyuki City, every day was very dull.

Thinking of this, Emiya began to worry about Fuji-nee and Sakura. He was not worried that they would not be able to survive without him, but worried that they would do something he could not expect after finding out that he was missing.

On this street, every night, the entire flower street was brightly lit, like the twinkling stars in the sky. Countless street lights gathered together, making the entire street as bright as day.

Many times, Emiya could not tell when it was daytime and when it was night.

At night, people were surging in Yoshiwara Flower Street, and the noise, cheers, and shouts were almost connected, which was very lively, but in the daytime, it was a dead scene.

Even after living here for more than a month, Emiya still felt very uncomfortable with such a place where day and night were reversed.

However, in the past, Emiya often had to practice his strengthening magic until late at night, and was woken up by Sister Fuji or Sakura in the morning. Generally speaking, Emiya could still barely live in this city.

But this kind of sleeping during the day and being active at night is consistent with the work and rest of ghosts to some extent.

Because they are afraid of sunlight, ghosts are normally active at night, and in a large city like this, the life and work are so consistent with ghosts, and it feels that there are ghosts in this city.

But after searching in this town for more than a month, Emiya did not find any traces of ghosts at all, and he also did not find anyone holding a samurai sword with a strange color like the boy before.

"Maybe there are no ghosts in this city?"

Emiya can only think positively. In such a month, Emiya basically figured out all the alleys in the city. Except for some wandering people, there are no ghosts.

And when he asked passers-by about ghosts, most of them said that it was just a rumor in the countryside. Only a few people said that they had seen it and were rescued by someone, or that they were scammers who wanted to extort money from Emiya.

From various news, there are no ghosts in this city

"Shirou, don't you come up and sit?"

The geishas standing in the corridor on the second floor waved their fans, with a smile between their eyebrows, and called out to Emiya who was walking aimlessly below in a soft and tactful tone.

"No, I'll walk around the street first."

Emiya waved his hand upwards, then turned around and disappeared into the crowd.

In this month, most people living in this town knew the new chef of the restaurant.

It's not just because of Emiya's craftsmanship that makes these people linger, but also because Emiya only spent a month to clean up the alleys of the entire town, and also helped many people for free.
