Tomorrow's Ark Full of Heroic Spirits

Chapter 24: Emiya who was found, Unlimited sword system!

"Yo! You are the master of Saber in this Holy Grail War, right?"

At this moment, outside the city of Casimir, Neng Angel and his group who had been waiting here for a long time saw Maria and Lily, Neng Angel recognized Maria, who is also the master, at a glance, and was very enthusiastic. stepped forward and said:

"For me, just ask me to be an angel! I am the master of this Holy Grail War Archer!"

"Ah, that, yes! My name is Maria Linguang! I am the master of Saber!"

Maria was also taken aback by the enthusiasm of Angel Neng, she was already prepared for a tit-for-tat confrontation, but she didn't expect that the other party had no sense of hostility at all, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That, please give me more advice! But I absolutely want to win this Holy Grail War!"

"Oh, oh, it's very imposing! But I definitely won't lose!" Seeing that Maria was full of fighting spirit, Angel Neng immediately responded with a thumbs up.

On the other side, Billy the Kid and Lily were subconsciously relieved seeing the two masters get along so well.Billy the Kid also smiled and said:

"It seems that our two masters are getting along very well! Ah, it's a great help. I thought I was going to fight Saber, who is the most powerful in the Holy Grail War, and it scared me a lot. Jump."

"However, from this point of view, we may be able to form an alliance for the time being! Saber and Archer of the Three Knights are the first to unite, and they should be able to easily deal with other difficult Heroic Spirits, right?"

"It's a good suggestion." Lily also nodded in agreement with the proposal, and said with a smile: "Although I'm just an apprentice knight, I will work hard to win for the Master!"

"—But, speaking of it, what about Emiya-san? Shouldn't he be with us?"

Lily looked around and found that everyone was present, except Wei Gong who was not there, so she couldn't help being a little curious at the moment.

She still has a lot of questions she wants to ask Emiya, but where is he now?

……

And where is Wei Gong at this moment?He was still in the city of Casimir, he deliberately hid his aura, and distanced himself from Lily and the others without leaving any trace.

Wei Gong deliberately walked to a dark corner, and here, the figure of Manna saw Wei Gong stopped here, and walked forward wordlessly.

"The [Guardian] of the Holy Grail War... Emiya, isn't that right?"

"That's right." Emiya turned to look at Manna, and said indifferently: "Mr. Manna doesn't know why he is looking for me—"

"Crack!"

However, before Wei Gong's words fell, a cold light suddenly hit Wei Gong. The next moment, accompanied by the sound of interlacing swords and swords, Mo Xie, a general who appeared in Wei Gong's hand at an unknown time, and Manna His long swords were intertwined.

"Casimir's knight, is that how you ask?"

"I'm not a knight, so I'm not bound by knight etiquette." Facing Emiya's words, Manna replied without any emotion:

"Casimir has no right to title me, and I'm not a knight, so if I attack you as an ordinary person like me, even if I succeed, it's nothing more than intentional murder and more than ten years in prison. "

"And if I succeed, it will prove that the Holy Grail War is nothing more than a lie, an unprecedented lie woven by a huge group."

"—So now, your doubts are gone?" Emiya looked at Manna, whose strength was still undiminished by half, and couldn't help asking with a smile.

"For the Holy Grail War, I have no regrets, but for you, I still have." However, Manna just replied indifferently:

"You call yourself a just [Guardian], but I sense desire from you. You have worked so hard to bring those who participated in the Holy Grail War to the Dragon Gate. You also have your own purpose, right?"

"You want to win the Holy Grail? Have the Holy Grail in your pocket?"

"...Then you misunderstood me, I am not interested in the Holy Grail."

Emiya thinks that now, the Holy Grail has never fulfilled any serious wish except for fulfilling the Chaldean founder's wish for money before the FGO plot started. He really has nothing to do with the Holy Grail. Not to mention, his purpose has nothing to do with the Holy Grail.

He just wants to win, to get rewards from the system, and to let the heroic spirits come into the world.

"Oh? The omnipotent wishing machine—this is what you said, and you're not interested?"

"...You can treat me as a boring man who doesn't even have a wish." Emiya's answer was like this, but such an answer obviously didn't satisfy Manna.

Suddenly, the long sword in Manna's hand was yanked away by him, and he stabbed towards Emiya again!And Wei Gong was also calmly parrying Mo Xie with his go-getter, and between each move, the two of them were constantly confronting each other in a narrow and dark corner.

Manna's skills were trained during his travels, and it just so happened that Emiya's skills were also honed when he was a "Guardian". Neither of them used any martial arts or Originium skills. It's just a simple attack and parry with weapons.

The narrow area limited the performance of the two, but even so, the two were on par, no one was at a disadvantage, and no one took advantage.

Under another stagger, Manna took a step back, looked at Emiya who still had a calm expression in front of him, and said lightly:

"Did you keep your hand? Or, is that really all you can do?"

"If this is the case, I don't dare to agree with your [Guardian] status. A person who thinks he can control the victory and maintain the situation cannot only have this ability."

"...For a person who doesn't even use Originium skills, if I activate my own unique technique first, wouldn't it appear that I am at a disadvantage?"

However, Wei Gong spread his hands indifferently, turned the general Mo Xie in his hand, and disappeared into the air.

"However, if you want to see something different, I may be able to satisfy your desire."

"I didn't want to use this trick at first... After all, this is my ultimate trick, but it seems that if you don't use this trick, you, an uncle who is not honest at all (tsundere) will not rest assured of his niece To participate in the Holy Grail War."

Saying this, Emiya slowly raised his head, his pupils became sharper at this moment, and even Manna felt an unprecedented pressure!

what does it feel likeThe murderous aura of the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​flames?No, it's not just murderous intent, but also that strong gap in realm!

How can this be?How many people can Casimir have who are stronger than him in realm? !

"—Then, let me show you the strength of the nameless Heroic Spirit."

However, Wei Gong's faint words broke the peace. The next moment, before Manna could react, a soft chant came slowly from Wei Gong's mouth:

"I am the bone of my sword"

"Steelismybody, andfireismyblood"

The words that are relatively unfamiliar to Manna may sound like Victorian at first glance, but after listening carefully, many pronunciations are different, but Manna can still roughly understand some meanings.

Accompanied by Emiya's chanting, Manna felt as if he was in a war. The strong breath made his breathing a little short, making him seem to have found the tension he felt when he was a ranger a long time ago. .

"I have created over a thousand blades."

"Unknown to Death"

"NorknowntoLife (nor known to life)"

At this moment, Manna finally couldn't continue to chant Emiya, and the strong Originium skill began to bloom from his body that had not been seen for a long time!Accompanied by the strong light, a looming golden Pegasus condensed behind Manna!

The golden pegasus roared, dispelling all the darkness and fear around it, and brought endless courage to Manna for a while!

And Wei Gong's chanting was also nearing the end.

"Havewithstoodpaintocreatemanyweapoons"

"Yet, those hands will never hold anything."

At this moment, Emiya finally opened his pupils again. At this moment, the sharpness in Weigong's eyes seemed to pierce Manna's heart, and at this moment, Manna's heart even resonated with Emiya. .

Are they... are they the same person?

No, Emiya... has seen more ugliness in the world than Manna.He knows hurt, decay, and darkness better than Manna.

But Wei Gong, knowing all of this, has to carry these forwards!

This is him, the unsung hero, his own "false" honor!

"SoasIpray (So As I Pray)"

"UnlimitedBladeWorks! (Unlimited BladeWorks)"

At the end of the last chanting, at this moment, Manna only felt that everything around her had changed, the whole world had been changed!

Everything was shrouded in a dark red world, and the ground under his feet turned into a blood-stained dark red wasteland, just like the countless lands shrouded in flames of war that Manna had seen.

In front of Manna, Emiya stood on a small sand dune, staring at him condescendingly.

Chapter 25: Casimir's Hope? The King of Knights prophesied by Emiya

The dark red land, a crimson sky as if stained red by war and blood, the looming huge gears in the distance that seem to operate the world, and... Visible to the naked eye, there is a piece of weeds inserted on the ground around it. The blade!

"here it is……"

For a moment, even Manna was in a trance. Right beside him, he could see the blades of the swords standing on the ground. Some were bright and beautiful, while others were rusty. Yes, these swords are extremely good swords!

It's not just as simple as forging, these blades embody the beliefs of the users!Even with such a long distance, Manna could still feel the sharp aura emanating from these blades!

These blades... no matter what kind of blades they are, as long as they are brought to Terra Continent, they will be magical weapons that will cause a bloody battle!Whoever owns one of these artifacts in Casimir!It will definitely attract the envy and jealousy of countless knights, thus attracting endless pursuit!

But at this moment, these sword blades are placed here like weeds, without any maintenance or use, not even placed in the scabbard in a regular manner.

This...if those sword-addicted knights see this, they will go crazy. I'm afraid they can scold Wei Gong bloody.

However, at this moment, Manna saw Emiya's expression, his pupils were neither sad nor happy, just staring at Manna, without even looking at the blades.

It was as if these sword blades were not worth mentioning in his eyes.

"...This is, your mind image world?"

However, when Manna woke up from the shock, she uttered something that even surprised Emiya, and only heard Manna say lightly: "I heard such a thing when I was practicing. Legend has it that... the real hero will release the world he has drawn in his heart, thereby affecting all senses."

"Those who can do this, without exception, are heroes among heroes... I have only heard about it in legends, but now, I have actually seen the existence that can do this."

"...This is just an inherent enchantment, but it's not wrong to say that it is my mental image world."

"All the blades here are illusions. Maybe I have driven and made these blades, but none of these blades belong to me, and they are all fakes."

"My unsung hero...is probably just a fake."

Emiya replied lightly to Manna's words, the infinite sword system is the world in Wei Gong's heart that he has continuously honed in his endless journey as an unnamed heroic spirit. A real stunt.

In this field, except for a few heroic spirits of exceptional level, very few people can compete with Emiya in the infinite sword system. At this time, Emiya seldom opens.

But it’s different now. After Wei Gong acquired his five treasures, the load of the Unlimited Sword Control has been reduced to the minimum, and the power has also been amplified a lot. Now Wei Gong can release the Unlimited Sword Control with a maximum of three chants. .

As for why all the chants were chanted before...of course it was for the sake of being handsome.

"An unsung hero... If anyone who can do this is unknown, then who else can be called a hero?"

However, Manna listened to what Wei Gong said, but slowly put down the blade, and the Pegasus behind him dissipated, and said softly:

"You win."

As soon as Manna's words fell, the world of Infinity Sword System dissipated, and Emiya and Manna returned to reality, looking at each other.

"...Your real name, Unsung Hero, can you tell me?"

"I have long since abandoned my past name, and now I am just a man named Wei Gong." Wei Gong's answer, as always, inherited his boring man's setting, and replied lightly: "If you really If you are curious, you can call me 【无明】."

"[Wu Ming]...I remember it." Manna nodded emphatically after hearing the words, and remembered the name in her heart.

Unsung heroes, the Holy Grail War, former heroic spirits...

It seems that none of these are false, they are all real.

"Wu Ming, do you think the knights can still have their salvation in Casimir's future? The Holy Grail can really fulfill such a wish?"

"... To be honest, I don't know. I don't know whether the Holy Grail War will go smoothly this time, so I can't answer your question." Wei Gong also relaxed a little when he heard that, Wei Gong, who is also the same kind of person Getting along with Manna was quite harmonious, Emiya also replied:

"However, I do know a knight king. If she can come, Kasimir may be able to usher in the real light of salvation."

"The King of Knights?" Manna was attracted by the word, and couldn't help asking, "Is she our Casimir's former king?"

"Probably not." Emiya shook his head, but then smiled: "However, I don't think she would mind turning Kasimir into a new Camelot."

"Camelo...I've heard this name from Lily before." Manna heard this familiar title again, and asked again: "Could it be that the King of Knights is Lily?"

"... Well, you will have the answer later, Manna."

"Perhaps one day you will be able to see the true luster of the golden sword, and then you will have the answer."

Wei Gong's voice fell slowly, and his figure disappeared in front of Manna's eyes in an instant.But Manna is still thinking about what Emiya told him at this moment.

King of Knights... Camelot... Golden Sword...

Could it be that that innocent little girl named Lily can really become the King of Knights?

If... At this moment, Manna couldn't help but think this way... If one day, the heroic spirits of the past can come to Casimir, the real knight king can come to Casimir!

If there is such a day, perhaps, the real knight will really be awakened.

For some reason, when she thought of this day, Manna suddenly felt a long-lost feeling of boiling blood welling up in her heart.His heart, which had been silent for an unknown number of years, became active because of a seemingly non-existent vocabulary.

Knight King... This title must be a knight among knights.

……

"Several, I have been waiting for a long time, and I was delayed for a while just now."

In an instant, Emiya returned to Lili and the others, looking at the group of people who had been waiting here, he also smiled and said:

"It seems that most of the candidates for the Holy Grail War have been assembled, and now the rest are Caster, Rider and Berserker."

"I already know the candidate for Caster, only the last two riders have not shown up, you can go to the Dragon Gate on your own now."
