Altria.
A character I liked in my previous life;
The lovely king who always hoped that she could find peace;
Since he was called out, he has always supported his companions no matter what situation they fell into.
She is one of the people he cares about most in this world.
Now, she is dead.
After Justisa, another person who was important to him died.
"Ama.kusa.shiro.toki.sada!!!"
Shinji's eyes, no, all six of his eyes were filled with blood.
Shirou shuddered deliberately when he saw this, and patted his chest and said, "How terrible, how terrible, don't make such a terrible expression, it wasn't me who did it. Okay, okay, no matter who did it, I am responsible, who made me the master of everyone? If you want revenge, just come to me - Having said that, the most important thing you should do now is not to cause trouble to me, right? It's already the sixth knight, huh?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an indescribable pulse emanated from the altar, directly ignoring the space and the barriers of the flesh and penetrating into the deepest part of the soul.
That is the pulsation of the Greater Holy Grail, a sign that the Greater Holy Grail is fully activated.
Colorless but tangible magic power gushed out from the core of the Greater Holy Grail, first poured into the Lesser Holy Grail, then gradually overflowed outward, gradually changing its properties in the process, producing fluctuations that were enough to change reality.
This kind of magic, this change in nature, this kind of fluctuation is exactly what Shinji and Justisia originally wanted to seek.
However, now that Justisa has passed away, Altria, who was not on the list of "sacrifices", has become the final key to activate the Holy Grail.
Even more pressing is that the magical fluctuations that are enough to change reality have begun to affect the world, which means that Shirou has already engraved his wish on the Holy Grail through his treasure.
As soon as the Greater Holy Grail was activated, it began to function according to the rules.
"That's why I say you're unlucky. You already have the power to threaten me or even kill me. If we continue to fight, the outcome is still uncertain. However, you seem to have forgotten that our goal is not simply life and death, but the Holy Grail. You lose."
Hearing Shirou's declaration of victory, the bloodshot in Shinji's eyes grew darker, and even his body began to glow with a strange red light.
Suddenly, he turned his Noble Phantasms around and stabbed all of them towards his own body. This was the greatest injury he had ever suffered since the start of the war, but it also brought the greatest amount of magic power. In an instant, a storm of magic power was released from Shinji's body, and the instantaneous output even surpassed that of the Holy Grail.
"Yes, we lost, but our loss does not mean your win."
At the same time, his body began to swell, and the "three heads and six arms" form that he had evolved for fighting collapsed in the blink of an eye, turning into a pool of purple-red meat that kept spreading around and looked extremely weird. Blood bubbles continued to emerge from the surface of the meat.
"Why do I feel like I've seen this scene before?"
Shirou held his chin and sighed, then shook his head as if he suddenly realized something.
"Fuck the déjà vu, this is bad, an upgraded version of a human (huh) bomb!!! Are you really going to die?"
Unfortunately, Shinji's body had completely melted and he no longer looked human at all, so he naturally had no way of speaking. All his energy was now focused on the process of accelerating the explosion.
But he had already given the answer.
In order to get revenge, Shinji can do anything, including his own life.
The reason I lost is that we failed to stop the Greater Holy Grail from activating.
It doesn't mean you win because even if the Holy Grail is activated, it won't make your wish come true.
Before Shinji went alone to fight Shirou, he had already made various preparations and formulated various plans.
Magic cycle.
Continuous release of treasures.
Give up being a human being.
Human (clam) bomb.
Halal crackdown.
...
The latter is a supplementary plan for the former. Once any link fails, the subsequent ones will be activated. In other words, even if Altria doesn't die, Shinji will still use the halal attack after he finds that the human bomb can't take down Shirou.
But now, changes have occurred outside, forcing Shinji to start this plan ahead of schedule. Because the accumulated magic power is insufficient, he chooses the method of self-harm to make up the last bit of magic power, allowing the magic power to completely exceed the limit, beyond control, and completely run wild.
As for whether Shirou would escape, Shinji was not worried. The magic power he had accumulated now was no less than the last blow of Spartacus, and at such a close distance, it was enough to completely destroy the Holy Grail.
That's right, the target of this "Halal Strike" is not Shirou himself, but the Holy Grail. Shirou is no longer a human being in the flesh, but a Servant. His possession and his magic power all come from the Holy Grail. If he runs away and watches the Holy Grail being destroyed by Shinji, then he and his companions will lose their source of magic power. Even if they have the support of the Command Spells, even if they have any backup, they will not be able to hold on for long, and will be killed by their companions sooner or later.
Shirou obviously knew very well what Shinji was thinking. He silently glanced at the Greater Holy Grail which began to slowly rise due to the release of magic power, and his lips opened and closed as if he was saying something, but no sound came out.
Then he tore off the "holy cloth" draped over his shoulders and quickly wrapped it around his hands.
"When I saw you use Spartacus's Noble Phantasm, I knew you would have this move. You didn't think I hadn't prepared anything, did you? I also know how to extinguish the Saint's mind fire, and I can do it better. Are you confident that you can surpass the Saint's end? Or do you have a way to break through my move?"
There were more and more bubbles on the meat paste, as if it was a pot of boiled broth. The firewood for boiling the broth was none other than the magic power accumulated by the "defective beast" for a long time. The destructive power was even more terrifying than that of the Holy Grail.
The power finally exploded, shining with a light of destruction, and its posture instantly changed into an explosive blade.
It is a Noble Phantasm that has the destructive power to annihilate the enemy at the cost of one's life. It is the most destructive Noble Phantasm in this Holy Grail War.
As soon as the sharp blade showed its edge, cracks appeared in the strange space where the altar was located.
You know, this is the recognized pinnacle in the magic world. Although the space opened up by the Great Magic of the Age of Gods is not as solid as the space in the real world, it is enough to rival the space of the inherent barrier, and this is just the prelude to this attack.
Looking at the sharp blade that was beginning to show its power, Shirou sighed.
"You've actually made it this far... Have you been with Jeanne for too long? Why do you always think of self-destructing when you encounter a problem you can't solve? Why can't you escape the fate of self-destructing even after changing people on both sides? Can you be a little more creative?"
Sighing is sighing, but there is only one thing Shirou can do now, as long as he doesn't want to die and doesn't want the Holy Grail to be destroyed.
"Right wrist & middhthadown), left wrist retraction drive (Lefthand Fault Tolerant) -"
As if responding to the boiling "broth", the colorless magic power also began to boil.
PS: Why does it look so familiar? Because this is Shenbei.
PS2: UBW is also the only route where Erye survived. Erye turned a disaster into a blessing because he became the Shenbei, and his magic circuits were fully opened, which means that Erye will have good fortune after bad times.
PS3: This time I hit the right healer by accident. In the animation, Amakusa really met Yustisa, and Yustisa is really awesome.
