Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

Add to that Kallen's occasional attacks, and the Holy Shroud that could trap men, so Nero not only failed to gain an advantage, but was defeated.

You know, Kallen's Holy Shroud of Magdalene could be caught even by a Servant like Hercules, who was out of the standard. Although it would be broken sooner or later, its ability was enough to make Nero anxious and finally defeated.

However, with Jeanne, Rin Tohsaka, Sakura Matou, Kallen, and Ryoka Sajo working together, it was very difficult to suppress the opponent, which was enough to show Nero's strength.

After all, Nero was not facing an ordinary Servant or an ordinary magician.

"It's a pity that I couldn't save that girl--"

Just when Shirou Emiya was talking to Sakura Matou and Rin Tohsaka, a familiar figure appeared in front of them.

"Ayako--" Rin Tohsaka greeted directly.

"Senior Ayako--" Sakura Matou greeted politely.

"Mizuki——" Shirou Emiya also nodded slightly and spoke to the other party.

"Rin? Sakura? Emiya?"

Mizuki Ayako felt that there was something fishy when these three people walked together.

Chapter 1117 The Purpose of the Akasha Snake

It was just a chance encounter, and the conversation with Mizuki Ayako did not take up too much time.

When Shirou Emiya and the others returned home, the whole Emiya house revealed a heavy atmosphere.

It was not heavy.

It was just that Elquet and Xiel, the agent of the burial mechanism of the Holy Church, did not get along.

On the one hand, Elquet was one of Xiel's targets of crusade, and on the other hand, she was killed by Elquet.

She was killed under the joint siege of the Holy Church and Elquet, although she was resurrected later.

Because of Sajo Aika, Sajo Reika and Hiel also don't get along. She doesn't believe that her sister, who stays at home every day and occasionally, or should I say, often makes trouble outside, will cooperate with the Dead Apostles.

Jeanne hopes that everyone can discuss well and keep the situation stable.

Karen.

Well, although she is a member of the Holy Church, and although her relationship with Sajo Reika is better than Hiel's.

But she always stirs up trouble, which makes Jeanne very headache. Karen feels very happy when she sees Jeanne with a headache. She knows that this is wrong, but she is very happy.

In short, the situation is still a bit chaotic, but not to the point of destroying the house, maintaining a more weird balance.

At this time, Elquet seemed to run into Shirou Emiya's room and didn't know what to look for.

However, it will not be Elquet who cleans the room later, but Shirou Emiya himself.

In order to prevent Karen from stirring up trouble again, Jeanne directly pulled her into the room to pray.

Sajo Ryoka gathered her pigeons and crows in the courtyard, planning her black magic to prepare for tonight's battle.

Xier was also here, but she was in the living room wiping her Seventh Holy Scripture, which was like a gun to fight vampires.

Very good weapons, Shirou Emiya silently analyzed it and put it into the Infinite Sword System. Although he couldn't project it now, it didn't mean that he couldn't project it in the future. Anyway, he recorded it first.

Xier had never thought that her weapon had been pirated.

"An ordinary person? Why can he give me such a big sense of threat?"

She knew that Elquet was carried back by Shirou Emiya, and she had met him when she followed them here last night.

That's all. It was late at night, when the Dead Apostles were active, so in order to prevent the defeated Akasha Snake from taking the opportunity to suck blood, they just met once and left in a hurry.

In fact, Xier returned to the Emiya house when the sun rose in the morning.

After that, they met the awakened Elquit. As for why Xiyeer targeted Sajo Reika in the first place.

Late last night, in addition to rescuing Nero, Akasha also kidnapped a person who looked exactly like Sajo Reika except for the blond hair.

Except for Rin Tosaka, who had seen Sajo Aika, everyone else thought that she was Sajo Reika's sister, so Sajo Reika showed everyone the photo of Sajo Aika on her phone.

It was also at this time that Xiyeer saw Sajo Aika in the photo and remembered the scene a few months ago.

But at that time, the primary goal was to restrict the Akasha Snake, so there was no direct conflict with Sajo Reika until the morning.

In fact, she only met everyone present except Elquit once.

As for why she said in the morning that basically everyone was there.

Kallen is from the Holy Church, one of the people. Elquet has always been hunting down the Akasha Snake. Hiel knows very well that Jeanne is someone she respects, and as a saint who restrains the dead apostles, Hiel feels that it will be much easier to kill the Akasha Snake with Jeanne's help.

And Sajo Reika is Sajo Aika's sister, and she might know what Sajo Aika is planning, or there might be a traitor hidden among them, so either get information from her or eliminate the other party.

That's why they say that everyone is here.

After all, in Hiel's eyes, Emiya Shirou is an ordinary person who doesn't even have a magic circuit, Toosaka Rin is from the Magic Association, and Matou Sakura is about the same. She didn't see the scene of them besieging Nero.

She didn't think that Emiya Shirou, Tohsaka Rin, and Matou Sakura could provide any help when they got into a battle, so she directly excluded them.

"Being able to give you a sense of threat already shows that I am not an ordinary person."

It's already obvious that Shirou Emiya's ability to complain has not diminished. You all feel the threat I feel towards you. Even if I say I'm just an ordinary person, you won't believe it.

"call out--!"

A cold stab appeared in front of Emiya Shirou's eyes instantly, grazing his cheek.

"Is it necessary to test like this?"

Emiya Shirou smiled bitterly, and the moment the opponent took action, he guessed where its final landing point would be.

Therefore, Emiya Shirou didn't even dodge, and the opponent didn't have any killing intent at all.

"Forget it, since we can make the princesses of the True Ancestor willing to stay here, we should have some skills."

Hiyer did not continue to test. Everyone is in the same camp now, and after cleaning up the Dead Apostles in Fuyuki City, they basically never meet again, so there is no need to make the atmosphere so stiff now. .

Although when he was targeting Shatiao Lingxiang, Hiyer's momentum was very strong.

“Squeak—!”

The door of the living room was pushed open again, and Matou Sakura went to inform everyone that they could put aside the longer matters at hand and would have lunch soon.

At this time, Jeanne d'Arc also told her guess to Matou Sakura and the others.

"We think the target of the Serpent of Akasha may be the Holy Grail?"

"However, it will still be some time before the Holy Grail War officially starts. It will be useless even if we get the Holy Grail now."

If you can use the Holy Grail directly after you get it, then there is no need to prepare for the Holy Grail War. Such rituals are necessary. The Holy Grail can't do anything until the Holy Grail War is started.

Matou Sakura didn't understand what the other party was doing with a Holy Grail that had not been fully activated. She couldn't take it away. If she took it away, she would only be able to find a new leyline and wait for 60 years.

If you don't take it with you, it is almost impossible to use it in advance. There is no soul of the servant in the Small Holy Grail.

Get something to start.

However, Joan of Arc had a different attitude. In the Holy Grail War she participated in, there was no Little Holy Grail.

Amakusa Shirou Tokisada did not wait until the end of the Holy Grail War to activate the Holy Grail. Instead, when the Holy Grail War was halfway through, he went inside the Holy Grail and forced its functions.

If Shirou Emiya hadn't stopped it, the Holy Grail might have granted Amakusa Shirou Tokisada's wish.

However, that was not what Joan of Arc was thinking about. Although Amakusa activated the Holy Grail before the end of the Holy Grail War, it still needed the driving force of the Holy Grail ritual.

Otherwise, why would Darnic wait so many years and confront the Magic Association and the Holy Temple Church head-on?

"There is something that the Holy Grail can do that may not require the Holy Grail War ritual."

"What?"

"Suffer the flesh."

"Doesn't he have a body?"

"According to Hier, the Serpent of Akasha is called the "Infinite Reincarnator" in church records. It has the ability to be reincarnated indefinitely, but the quality of the body acquired during its reincarnation is inferior to that of the original generation. "

"In other words, the Serpent of Akasha plans to regain the body of the first generation?"

————————————

"My purpose is not just to obtain a body!"

In a large hollow cave, a man with long black hair wearing a shirt and exposing his abdominal muscles firmly grasped the neck of the blond Lingxiang and spoke slowly while looking at the Great Holy Grail in front of him.

Chapter 1,118 Please ask guests not to stare at my breasts

The team once again split into two groups.

Sakura, Jeanne d'Arc, Kallen, Hier, and Shajo Reika went to the large cave under Mount Enzo to check on the status of the Great Holy Grail.

Emiya Shirou, Erquet, and Tohsaka Rin went to visit the Einzbern family, that is, they went to visit Illya.

"You mean, Illya is probably your sister?"

On the way, Tohsaka Rin digested the news that Emiya Shirou said. Naturally, she would not think that Emiya Shirou was talking nonsense here. After all, Emiya Shirou also had theoretical support.

The parallel world that we went to before was the basis for Emiya Shirou, not to mention Tohsaka Rin said that she did have a magic wand, but it was sealed in a treasure chest by her.

"There shouldn't be any big mistakes. I asked Illya last night and she did know Kiritsugu, but——"

Emiya Shirou could only sigh when he thought of Illya's extremely radical attitude last night.

I'm afraid Illya's experience is not much better than Xiao Hei's, and it may even be worse.

"Is that so? But as the three imperial families in the Holy Grail War, it is also necessary to visit each other."

Tohsaka Rin also nodded slightly. The other party was also his enemy in the Holy Grail War, so there was no harm in knowing about it in advance.

What's more, I heard from Emiya Shirou that she summoned the servant in advance, and it was the Hercules in Greek mythology. It was really a bit too supermodel. In addition, the other party only relied on himself to provide the servant's magic power. It can be said that it must be her. 's archenemy.

"So it was Shirou's sister who hit me last night?"

Arquette, who was looking around, joined the chat. Her name for Shirou Emiya was also changed from Emiya to Shirou. Perhaps it was because most people called her that way, so she also changed it. .

"Well, it was a special situation at that time."

Emiya Shirou didn't know how to explain to Elquite. Actually, if he had to, Illya still had strong hostility towards him.

Especially after knowing that he was Kiritsugu's adopted son, if it weren't for the fact that the Holy Grail War had not yet begun, letting Hercules fight would have been a huge burden for Illya, and Hercules had already lost a life at that time, otherwise there would probably be another conflict.

"No, I don't mean to blame you, I just asked a question."

Elquite waved her hand, as if she really didn't care about being knocked away by Hercules with an axe last night.

Her enemies were only the Dead Apostles and those fallen True Ancestors. As for humans and servants, she didn't really care. Even if someone killed her, she wouldn't be too moved.

As the culprit who caused her blood-sucking impulse to burst out, Emiya Shirou didn't do anything out of the ordinary to him.

"I hope the conversation goes well."

In a remote forest path, Emiya Shirou, Tosaka Rin, and Elquite walked forward while talking.

The castle of the Einzbern family was built in the forest, basically far away from the city. To Shirou Emiya, although it was much quieter than the city, it was also much more troublesome. At least sometimes when going to the city to do things, you need to walk a lot.

However, it didn't take too long before a luxurious castle appeared in front of the three of them.

From the scale and form of the building, it was almost the same as the castle of the Endsworth family that Shirou Emiya had seen in the world of Miyu, although there were still many differences in the details.

"A bit, rich and powerful."

Rin Tosaka looked at this behemoth and said with some envy.

Although her home was also a mansion, it was still inferior to this castle.

"It's okay, the place I live is more luxurious than this."

Elquite didn't show any special look. It was just a castle. She slept in it for many years. What's more, the Millennium City was indeed more than twice as luxurious as this place.

"As a True Ancestor who has lived for so long, it's not strange to have a luxurious castle."

Tousaka Rin complained slightly. Unless he was being hunted all the time, a normal being who had lived for so long would have his own savings. This savings must be————

Wait, Tousaka Rin seemed to have thought of something and approached Elquet.

"What's wrong?"

Looking at Tousaka Rin who suddenly approached him, Elquet spoke with a puzzled look on his face.

"Well, Elquet, you have lived for so long, you must have extraordinary savings."
