Kapitel 391: C391
When they were younger, they were brought to the Clock Tower by the head of the Edelfelt family for a formal Twinning ritual, during which they had a chance encounter with Zelretch. During this meeting, he touched their heads and offered them the opportunity to become "Magical Girls," even going so far as to offer them Ruby and Sapphire.
Recently, they found themselves in a dangerous situation, kidnapped by a True Ancestor, but were fortunately saved by Shirou. Witnessing his transformation into a giant and his valiant act of pushing the True Ancestor into the abyss left a profound impact on them.
When asked about their aspirations, they expressed their desire to become "Saviors of Light." However, Zelretch seemed disappointed and left with a nasty expression, mentioning that they could still become Magical Girls before they reach adulthood, and he would give them Ruby and Sapphire.
Little did they expect to meet Sapphire again in this unexpected place!
And it seems that Zelretch has found better candidates for Magical Girls.
"Quickly leave this place, it's very dangerous here!" Illya said anxiously.
Rin and Luvia glanced at each other and said, "You're right. Little sister, you should come with us and leave this place too!"
Thud, thud, thud...
The Evil Giant and the Spider engaged in close combat, but neither could overcome the other.
Young Shirou's magical energy wasn't as strong as it had been during the Fourth Holy Grail War, which meant the Evil Giant's strength was somewhat limited. On the other hand, despite absorbing the Grail, the Spider didn't gain much of a power boost since that Grail had long lost its power.
As a result, they found themselves in a deadlock, each giant evenly matched. However, their colossal bodies colliding still resulted in shocking explosions and storms.
While the impact might not have been as jaw-dropping as the clashes between the two sixty-meter giants at the end of the Fourth Holy Grail War, it was still a sight to behold.
Bam, bam, bam...!
The two giants traded blows, their fierce battle on the mountaintop causing the peaks to tremble, making it difficult for Rin and the rest to stay steady on their feet.
Gil took out Ea.
Young Shirou raised an eyebrow, aware that even though Gil couldn't fully unleash Ea's power, the sword was still an impressive force to reckon with. When it came to sheer destructive power, Ea outstripped both Excalibur and Rhongomyniad.
He tightened his grip on the Holy Lance, emerging from the Evil Giant. He locked eyes with Gil, and the lance began to emit a radiant light, its power surging.
"Gil, Let's settle this with Ea and the Spear of the End!"
"Agreed!"
Ea emanated a fierce crimson light, while Rhongomyniad emitted a brilliant white light.
Swish, swish, swish!
In an instant, the dark night sky split wide open, revealing a breathtaking sight. On one side, a vibrant crimson hue painted the heavens, while the other shimmered with a mesmerizing light.
"Take this! Mortar of the stars, splitting the heaven and earth, Enuma Elish!" Gil's voice thundered as he unleashed the power of Ea, radiating a fierce red light that appeared capable of cutting through anything. With a mighty force, he launched this red storm straight at the young Shirou.
Swish, swish, swish!
The crimson storm, brimming with terrifying power, surged relentlessly toward him, causing even the surrounding space to warp and distort.
Confronted with this ominous storm, his gaze sharpened, and he cried out, "The Lance that shines to the ends of the world, Rhongomyniad!"
In his hand, the Holy Lance sparkled with the brilliance of stars, Its scorching light clashed head-on with the might of Ea.
The clash of radiant white and fiery crimson met in mid-air, and for a moment, it felt as if time itself stood suspended, holding its breath.
Suddenly, the air was filled with a deafening noise—
"Boom, rumble, rumble, rumble—!!!"
A violent roar, like muffled thunder, erupted as an overwhelming surge of energy unleashed itself at the very heart of the intersecting light beams. It swept through the world like a raging tempest, tearing through everything in its path.
"Crash, crash, crash!"
The trees on Mount Enzou were obliterated, as if a hurricane had swept through.
"Ahhhhh—!!!" Rin and the others screamed in panic.
The storm was too terrifying. Despite being some distance away from the mountaintop, they hastily erected magical barriers. However, this storm effortlessly tore through their defenses, threatening to tear them apart.
Astraea's heart was gripped with anxiety. She had already used her Noble Phantasm, and right now, she couldn't fuse with Luvia. Helpless, she could only watch as they were swept into the raging storm.
"Illya!" Sapphire's voice rang out.
Illya was swallowed by the storm, her fear reaching its peak. Was this how it would all end? Would she never see her parents again? The thought alone sent shivers of dread down her spine.
Then, in that critical moment, a reassuring voice echoed in her heart,
"Don't be afraid. You can do it."
"Who's there?" she called out, her voice trembling.
However, no response came, leaving only the overwhelming fear to consume her heart. Soon after, she fell into unconsciousness.
However, in reality, her eyes emitted a pure golden light.
"Illya!" Sapphire asked with concern.
But Illya didn't respond to her friend. Instead, she slowly opened her palm, and in the next moment, a terrifying magical barrier materialized in front of the three of them, effectively blocking the storm.
Rin and Luvia were astonished. "How can there be such a powerful spell?"
Astraea looked at Illya, her expression tinged with helplessness. "Another artificial Grail? Humans... truly are driven by insatiable greed."
Ea and Rhongomyniad locked in a clash, with Ea relentlessly pushing against the light of Rhongomyniad, closing in on young Shirou.
In response, Shirou raised an eyebrow.
Gil couldn't fully unleash Ea, the same also applied to him. It was an incomplete showdown. But there was no denying the overwhelming power of Ea, surpassing both the Holy Sword and the Holy Lance in might.
Gil laughed, "It seems that this time it's my win, Fujimaru Shirou."
"Don't be so sure about that." He chuckled.
But before anyone could react—
Out of nowhere, a sword burst forth from the ground, catching Gil off guard and sending Ea flying from his grip.
Gil's eyes widened in disbelief, "No way... How did that happen..."
But it was already too late. The unexpected ambush of Excalibur had disrupted Ea, the Sword of Rupture. With Ea no longer blocking its path, the blinding light of Rhongomyniad surged mercilessly toward Gil.
"You're so despicable, Fujimaru Shirou—!"
In an instant, the brilliant light engulfed Gil and the blackened spider.
With a deafening boom, the ground was blasted open, leaving behind a massive crater in its wake.
Using the evil wings, Young Shirou landed beside the large crater.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Gil, who managed to escape from the crater, crawled out of it, looking disheveled. He looked at him and asked, "When did you hide that sword there?"
He smiled, "Since the start of the battle."
"Impossible!" Gil shouted, clearly puzzled. "If you had hidden the sword there, I would have seen through it."
Young Shirou pointed to his eyes and chuckled, "Ah, but my eyes told me that if I hid the sword there, you wouldn't be able to see through it."
Gil: "..."
"You won half of the match this time, Shirou," Gil sighed.
"Really? Because it seems to me like I totally won this match."
Gil pointed behind him with a playful smile and said, "Take a look behind you."
He turned around and noticed the ground slightly loosening behind him. Suddenly, several bright and high-level Noble Phantasms emerged from the ground.
Gil clicked his tongue, "I was a step too slow, or else I would've had you right where I wanted!"
"My eyes have seen that place before, so why didn't I notice this..." Young Shirou appeared puzzled at first, but then his expression froze, and a helpless look crossed his face. He sighed, "Sha Naqba Imuru... It seems like our abilities are interfering with each other."
Gil nodded with a smile.
"But this move is also mine, right? Why do you always keep copying me?" Young Shirou said, a hint of displeasure in his voice. Being copied by someone didn't feel good at all.
Gil laughed, "I am the king of heroes. Naturally, what's yours is also mine."
"You're nothing but a plagiarizer!"
"Call me whatever you like. Anyway, once I use it, it becomes mine."
Young Shirou: "..."
Gil pointed down to the deep pit beneath him, saying, "Hey, help me find my Class Card."
He replied grumpily, "Why should I help you? We were just battling each other a moment ago."
Gil rolled his eyes and said, "Oh, come on! Fighting doesn't have to ruin our friendship. Put that behind us and lend me a hand. I promise I'll help you later."
"Alright, fine."
After thinking for a moment, he agreed with a nod.
The two boys landed in the pit, carefully scouring the area for an Archer Card.
"Are you sure it's here?"
"It should be here. My Sha Naqba Imuru saw it. And what about your eyes?"
"They also said it's here, but I can't seem to find it."
"Well, we can't give up now. Let's keep searching,"
"Yeah."
The two boys continued digging in the pit.
Meanwhile, a short distance away, Illya's eyes emitted a golden glow before she suddenly closed them and fell unconscious.
Rin swiftly reached out and caught her before she could fall.
"Why does this kid have such an incredible amount of magical energy?" Rin wondered aloud, looking quite puzzled.
Astraea explained, "This child is an artificial Grail."
"Artificial Grail?" Rin and Luvia were completely taken aback.
