Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

He was even questioning himself in his heart.

"I'm not good enough!"

"I haven't done enough!"

"It can be done better!"

“Can do a little more!”

"As long as we do a little better, more people can be saved!"

“As long as we do more, more people will be happy!”

"clatter--!"

The crisp sound of stampeding sounded again, and Emiya Shirou moved forward again.

"Why aren't you dead yet?"

"Why are you still alive!"

"Why are so many people dead and you are the only one who is not dead?"

"If it weren't for you, many more people would be saved!"

"Why are you the only one who is saved!"

"Die die die!!!!!!!!!"

"Die die die die!!!!!!"

The vicious words kept piercing Emiya Shirou's chest like a sword, as if he was in the disaster, on the ruins of the fire.

Watching countless people lose the chance to live because they were saved.

"tread--!"

However, there was another crisp sound of steps, and Shirou Emiya stepped heavily on the ground.

"This in itself is a guilt that I have been unable to get rid of. I will not escape, let alone give up!"

Greed, hypocrisy, slander, jealousy, pain, all the disasters bestowed upon him by the gods, were all placed on Shirou Emiya's body.

But Emiya Shirou walked forward blindly, holding on to his broken body.

Keep walking.

Keep walking.

Until a certain moment, his body froze in place, unable to move forward any further.

His body.

his soul.

His spirit.

All have reached the end.

No more steps forward.

That's the limit of being a human being————

Chapter 1,078 This is—Twilight of the Gods!

"Why?"

A voice reached Shirou Emiya's ears.

What followed was a flash of red light, a high temperature that ordinary people could not bear.

"Why can you persist to this point? You are just a passerby in this world."

A girl wearing gymnastics clothes, with the word "Tanaka" written on her chest but only one arm, appeared next to Emiya Shirou at some point.

Terrifying flames burned around him, and the black mud was burned out almost the moment it came into contact with the flames, making it impossible to touch the opponent at all.

What appeared behind Emiya Shirou was a girl named Tanaka who had been lying on the ground because of hunger.

"No matter whether this world is destroyed or not, it can't affect you, nor can it affect your world. Why are you trying so hard-!"

Tanaka stood there, his eyes full of confusion, extremely eager to get the answer from Emiya Shirou's mouth.

But Tanaka also understood that it was impossible for her to get the answer she wanted from Emiya Shirou, because Emiya Shirou was already————dead.

"tread--!"

A crisp sound reached Tanaka's ears at this moment, and the scene in front of him exceeded Tanaka's common sense.

It was a scene she couldn't understand at all.

It was a figure that was not upright.

It was an extremely weak-looking figure.

It was a body that was soaked in blood.

That is a broken soul.

That is a will to never give up.

That's a human being.

Or use the title given to Emiya Shirou by the Orario gods - [Mortal].

"How is this possible-!"

Looking at Emiya Shirou taking that half-step that was impossible to take, Tanaka's entire body was frozen in place, and she didn't know what words to use to describe her emotions at this time.

human beings.

Can humans achieve this?

"Zheng——!"

Just when Tanaka was stunned, a pure white light tore through the layers of black mud and shot straight into the sky, illuminating the originally dark sky instantly.

"call out--!"

Then, it turned into a white meteor, crossed the space, fell from the sky, and hit Shirou Emiya heavily.

"This power? It's Illya! No - it's not just Illya!"

Tanaka looked at the light that was sitting on Shirou Emiya's body in great surprise. His eyes couldn't stop trembling like water waves. He opened his mouth slightly and said in disbelief: "Heroic Spirit——"

She suddenly understood what the power that was different from Illya's was.

Not created by any being.

Not expected by anything.

Not blessed by any being.

Human beings evolved from beasts to bipedal walking, gained intelligence, and stood above all living things, towering over the entire planet, and even above the gods, relying only on their own consciousness.

In this desperate moment, in the face of this disaster that destroys everything, all ideals converge into a single ambition - people need a hero, a hero who can save everything, a hero named [Partner of Justice].

Human hope is stronger than despair, human joy is stronger and more lasting than sorrow.

limit------

Where are the limits of humanity?

Is Siegfried, who accomplished the great feat of slaying the dragon with human power, enough to be called the limit of mankind?

Is Scathach, who has accomplished the great deed of killing gods with human power, enough to be called the limit of mankind?

So, where is the limit of the human race?

Tanaka doesn't know.

But at this moment, she seemed to see that even if the planet was dead, it could still survive - human beings.

"tread--!"

The sound of crisp footsteps sounded from in front of Tanaka again, and like a miracle, the originally dilapidated body started to move again.

"Humanity chose you, and Illya also chose you——"

Looking at the still thin figure in front of him, Tanaka murmured softly, closed his eyes slightly, and then opened them again, burning with burning faith.

"Humanity and the planet actually chose you at the same time."

The planet entrusted the world to that young girl, but Illya entrusted its hope to Emiya Shirou. To Tanaka, it was almost equivalent to entrusting both humanity and the planet to one person.

"Obviously he is just a passer-by, but he is so determined to bear the fate of the entire world."

"Okay, maybe you are the only one who can bring out the true power of that sword, maybe you are the only one who can truly end all of this -"

“Buzz——!”

In front of Shirou Emiya, a ball of flames capable of burning the world turned into a red meteor and rose into the sky. The terrifying flames burned everything around, and the entire space was illuminated.

The black mud that could also swallow the world was instantly burned without a trace under the flames, and the area centered on the flames appeared completely in front of Shirou Emiya's eyes.

The broken earth was burned by the red flames, and a scarlet sword sat on the top of the sand dune.

"tread--!"

Heavy footsteps left deep marks on this land.

"tread--!"

The broken body walked through the world-destroying flames.

"tread--!"

The unyielding soul left proof of its past in this space.

"tread--!"

The immortal will stepped onto the top of the sand dune.

The big sword that could burn the world was placed in front of Shirou Emiya, but he didn't even have the slightest time to hesitate and grabbed its hilt heavily.

"Buzz buzz buzz—!"

It was the sound caused by the trembling flames.

Just at the moment when he held it, the flames that could not stop trembling in the space climbed up Emiya Shirou's body. His body and soul were being burned at an extremely terrifying speed.

But Emiya Shirou seemed not to feel it at all, holding the sword tightly without any intention of letting go.

The surrounding black mud poured down on Shirou Emiya again because the flames were concentrated on him.

At this time, Emiya Shirou, who was holding the flaming sword tightly, pointed at a place in the black mud and said coldly——

"If this is what you call saving the world, then I will burn it with the inscription of annihilation!!!"

The moment the words fell, the red sword covered with intertwined red and black veins instantly set off a terrifying flame that was several times higher than that in Illya's hand.

"Buzz!"

The flames spread around at an extremely terrifying speed, making an extremely sharp scream that resounded throughout the entire space. The surrounding black mud was burned away just by the aftermath of the flames.

The shattered Rubik's Cube in the sky, which was constantly forming holes, was exposed in front of Shirou Emiya.

Immediately, bursts of red flames rose from the sword, burning his body and the world at the same time.

"Lead to the end of the world, this is Ragnarok!!!! 1!"

The crimson light instantly turned into the most violent flames, filling the entire world in an instant.

Chapter 1,079 The Destroyed World!

"Am I going to die?"

Floating in the rootless darkness, Xiao Hei felt that his human functions were constantly disappearing, and even moving his fingers was a luxury.

He could only roll his eyes, looking desperately at the world around him that had almost no light.

"Is this, what mom said, becoming the real Little Holy Grail?"

Xiao Hei smiled bitterly, Einzbern and Endsworth, he should have realized a long time ago that they have a mutual relationship in these two worlds.
