As they continued, the exit of the boundary drew closer, allowing the light of the outside world to seep in, its brilliance filling the opening with light.
"We're outside... We made it!"
"We've really done it...!"
With eyes brimming with tears, people dashed out, leaving behind the shroud of the night to bask in the embrace of daylight.
People rushed out of the exit, eager to embrace the promise of a beautiful dawn beyond the boundary. But as they stepped outside, thei...

Shirou remained surprisingly calm. He had become accustomed to these unforeseen twists of fate that seemed to be a recurring theme in his life. With a sweep of his cloak, he shouted, "Attention, everyone from Camelot! Listen up! Help the people around you and bring them out of the city!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The soldiers sprang into action, lifting the residents on their shoulders or in their arms, hurrying toward the exit.
Meanwhile, a few capable citizens hoisted those who...

Perched upon the dragon's tongue was a humanoid figure, its presence sending shivers down the spine. In its grip lay an ominous, pitch-black box.
"Could that be... the Pandora's Box?" Shirou's eyes widened in disbelief.
Crack, Crack, Crack, Crack—
The lid of the box creaked open, emitting an intense black light that seemed capable of devouring everything in its path.
As people gazed at the extreme black light, an irresistible pull tugged at their minds and s...

The sky was filled with a vivid aurora, resembling chains that seemed to wrap around a dragon's head and enormous arms. It was as if the entire world had transformed into a landscape of rainbow light.
Okita Souji looked up, remarking, "It seems that the planet is going to completely erase this thing."
"Hmph. Ignorant mongrels," Gilgamesh scoffed. "If it were that simple, wouldn't we hear more thunder and see less rain? The very fact that even Alaya saw fit to bring you here indica...

"Hmph," Gilgamesh let out an arrogant snort.
"Mongrel, does seeing me again strike fear into your heart?" Gilgamesh smirked, clearly enjoying his own perceived superiority. "Brings back some unpleasant memories, doesn't it?"
Shirou chuckled dismissively, "Ignorant bastard, you speak as if you have some great wisdom. But the future is filled with endless possibilities, and the past is just a fading footprint for me. It holds no importance now."
"Ignorant?" Gilgamesh's eyes na...

Shirou looked at the group and announced, "Everyone, head to Mount Enzou!"
Gil asked, "So we're evacuating now?"
"It's about time."
"Hmm. Very well." Gil nodded.
The group began to make their way toward Mount Enzou.
Above them, the dark sky was awash with vibrant energy patterns. Starting from directly overhead and spreading out in all directions throughout Fuyuki City.
This was the planet's countermeasure against the intruding threat, getting ready to seal...

The sky was ablaze with vibrant colors as beautiful as the aurora, yet it didn't bring comfort to the people.
A massive dragon head dominated the sky, seemingly asleep yet incredibly intimidating. Alongside it, enormous arms floated ominously above, instilling a sense of dread in anyone who gazed upon them.
The sky turned pitch-black, and a heavy, eerie atmosphere settled in. Black humanoid monsters started dropping from above, almost like raindrops falling from the sky.

A Glimpse of Reality (Part 2)
In the dead of night, Guinevere squinted at the paperwork under the dim lamplight, her brows furrowing as she read through it.
Cough... cough...
A harsh cough racked her body, and she couldn't help but cough up a bit of blood, her strength waning. She slumped against the table, her face draining of color, and her awareness began to slip away.
"My king... I mustn't... not yet... I..."
She trailed off, the words catching in he...

Extra Chapter: A Glimpse of Reality (Part 1)
As the morning light began to filter through the gaps in the door, Mordred slowly awoke. The space around her was dimly lit and filled with the distinct smells of horses mingled with hay. That's when she remembered—she was in a stable.
Having spent the previous night observing the newborn foal, she had stayed in the stable and eventually drifted off to sleep.
Noticing the blanket that was thoughtfully draped over her, protecting...

Shirou pointed to his chest and said, "There was an invisible vortex buried deep within my soul."

Gil observed Shirou's departing figure with a grin before finally making his way over to Artoria. Casting his gaze over Gray, Arcueid, and Attila, he turned to them with a smile. "Everyone, may I have a private conversation with the King of Knights?"
"Well..." Gray glanced at Artoria.
She nodded.
While Gray and Arcueid departed, Attila remained in place.
Gil asked with a pout, "Aren't you leaving too, Giant God?"
Attila ignored him.

Scathach left Camelot ahead of everyone else, so she's a bit out of the loop on recent events. But she's caught enough hints in the king's speeches to piece things together. For now, she has to act as if she's completely unaware, as though she's heard and seen nothing.
Gray stared at the building, a worried look on her face. "Why haven't His Majesty and Her Highness come out yet? It's been an hour."
"Yeah, what's taking them so long?" Arcueid chimed in, equally puzzled. She moved ...

Inside the room, Shirou observed the somewhat awkward and restless Artoria standing before him.
She appeared in her initial travel attire—a gown of pure white that made her look like a blooming lily. Despite this, his expression remained stern, lacking any softness.
She kept her gaze down, her heart pounding with a mix of discomfort and apprehension.
Seeing the king again should have been a moment of joy and relief, but instead, she felt nervous and jittery.

The soldiers' glimmering red lights came together, creating an enormous red dragon with wings outstretched, its mighty roar echoing into the sky!
This was the second form of his first Noble Phantasm. It granted the hundred-thousand-strong army the concept of 'Dragonkind,' bestowing upon them the power of the red dragon.
And this was the manifestation of the eternal king's philosophy, "Each person was a feathered wing of the red dragon!"
With a graceful sweep of his cloak, he...

The king's heart weighed heavy with sorrow. The dynasty he had worked so hard to build hadn't collapsed because of outside threats, but rather crumbled from within, thanks to the discord among the Knights of the Round Table.
Galahad struggled to find the right words to say.
Gareth reached out and gave a gentle tug on his robe.
Turning, Galahad glanced at her.
Gareth shook her head subtly, signaling for him not to contradict the king at this moment.

Shirou glanced at the scales in his hand and said, "By the king's authority, I grant you a divine duty."
His words flowed like a sweet melody, and a soft glow extended from his hand, wrapping around the scales.
As the light completely enveloped the scales, he set aside the holy lance and drew the Caliburn. The blade emitted a radiant gleam as he swung it down—
"By the king's command, come forth, Astraea!"
With one swing of the sword, a luminous humanoid figure obedie...

Miyu, Merlin, and the rest couldn't hide their panic as they watched Young Shirou.
The Tower of Light had gone out, and now Shirou, who had been calm up until this point, was holding his head, his face contorted in pain. A swirl of red mud was bubbling around him, radiating a menacing aura that seemed to push everyone away.
In his mind's eye...
He was gripping his head, his face marked by distress, beads of cold...

After greeting him, Merlin pointed at the young dragon and wailed, "Oh no! Please help me get her off! I feel like she's going to bite me to pieces! She's so small, where does she get such strength from? My k...

"The loophole is just too obvious!" Young Shirou scoffed, "Sure, Agravain's personality could certainly lead him to do something like that. But how can you be so sure?

In this scene, Artoria approached him right after he'd driven Morgan away. She held out a bowl of fish soup and gently set it down in front of him. Her words came soft, "Your Majesty, this is... my attempt at fish soup... I thought maybe you could give it a taste..."
Trusting her completely, he took a sip of the fish soup without hesitation.
He remembered, indeed, there was such a scene.
And then there was that night, the one he spent correcting...

With a loud clang, Artoria's holy sword clashed against the brilliantly shimmering rainbow blade. her enemy's sword carried a strong intent to kill as it menacingly sliced towards her head. A backward step spared her a fatal blow, but a few strands of her golden hair were sheared away.
But she didn't retaliate; instead, she swiftly withdrew, fully aware that in close quarters, she couldn't match her enemy's skill.
Wasn't this an expected outcome?

Shirou, commanding the Tower of Light, shifted his gaze to the side. In the distance, a white-haired youth brandishing a divine spear leaped between the towering buildings and jumped toward him.
There was no mistaking that the person who had sealed the gap in the defensive line with a magical cannon along with Excalibur was none other than him.
As he looked at the somewhat unfamiliar face, Shirou softly whispered the name of this youth in his heart.
