IBHJ Chapter 336

Shirou assembled a formidable team consisting of Lorelei, Altrouge, Merem Solomon, and several others to confront the Heroic Spirits causing trouble.

These Heroic Spirits resided within the Mirror World, a realm beyond Shirou's and Altrouge's reach. Therefore, they decided to dismantle Lorelei's elite magi unit and allocate them to the group, allowing them to make use of their skills.

Lorelei readily accepted this arrangement. In fact, ever since Shirou publicly acknowledged his i...

Inside the Castle of Separation, there was still an abundance of food supplies, so there was no immediate need to worry about running out of food.

Shirou and Waver sat in the room, having breakfast and discussing the clues they had gathered.

Most of the time, it was Waver who did the talking while Shirou focused on eating.

In Shirou's own words, he simply wanted to know the results, leaving the process and deductions to Waver.

This made Waver's stomach churn with acidi...

With the dawn breaking, he slowly woke up, stretching his body lazily. To his surprise, Shirou found Waver staring at him with a resentful expression.

He pretended not to see and instead asked, "How did things go?"

As he sat up in bed, Shirou accidentally stepped on Adashino's soft leg, which was resting nearby. Without even glancing down, he quickly kicked her leg aside before standing up and making his way toward Waver.

Waver let out a yawn, his exhaustion evident. "Apart ...

Shirou forced the magi who had received the invitations to reluctantly surrender them to Waver, leaving them with no choice but to comply.

Unfortunately, Heine Istari's invitation had gone missing following his untimely demise. With the exception of his invitation, all the others were successfully collected.

After laying Heine Istari and the other deceased magi to rest in the backyard, Shirou dismissed everyone and led Waver to his room.

Shirou's brow furrowed as he returned from another dimensional space.

"What's that card?" Waver asked.

"It's something from a parallel world."

Heine Istari and the other magi had met their demise at the hands of Lancer, but Shirou managed to see through the deception thanks to his second Noble Phantasm. Determined to recover the Class Card, he had taken Waver to the Mirror World and successfully eliminated Diarmuid.

However, to his surprise, the Class Card decided to s...

"What is that..." Waver's brow furrowed tightly.

"The one responsible for Heine Istari's death launched an attack from a different dimension," Shirou explained. He positioned himself and gestured towards the ground beneath them. "There's another space right here. I need your help to create a simulated connection to that space."

Understanding the concept, Waver asked, "An imaginary channel... I see. The true culprit is in a different space, and you're unable to directly intervene, ...

Shirou and Waver strolled leisurely through the dimly lit basement, shrouded in an eerie darkness. Wisps of black mist rose sporadically, enveloping their surroundings with a haunting ambiance. A palpable sense of terror sent shivers down Waver's spines.

"Heine Istari died here, right?" Waver asked.

"That's right. Heine was an incredibly skilled and dedicated alchemist, which led him to discover this place before anyone else. But unfortunately, his life paid the price for that." View Post

"I can easily kill someone at will. Don't provoke someone who can effortlessly kill you."

Pausing for a moment, Shirou looked around and continued, "If you want to stay alive, hide yourself like a little mouse. As for the rest, I will handle it. You bunch of mongrels."

No one responded. Everyone was frightened by the blast of light.

Shirou waved his hand and gestured to Waver, saying, "Let's go, Waver."

"Ah... Oh, okay," Waver nodded and followed.

As the screams reached their ears, Shirou and the rest quickly dashed towards the main hall.

As they entered, they found several people already gathered there.

Resting against an angel statue, there stood a young man with golden hair, donned in silver armor, giving off an aura of nobility and knighthood. His face appeared calm, almost as if he were peacefully asleep.

Yet, his limbs were absent, and blood spurted out from his wounds. A massive claw mark marred his once pristi...

Shirou chuckled, "They say smart people usually meet an early death."

"That may be true, but it seems like Fujimaru-sama enjoys dealing with smart people."

"You're absolutely right. I actually have a soft spot for smart people, especially those with exceptional intellect. It doesn't bother me if others try to decipher my intentions, but they should exercise caution not to cross my boundaries," he remarked, a slight smile gracing his face. "So, Orlocke Caesarmund, do enlighten me. ...

The magi were searching for the Holy Grail that might be hidden within the Castle of Separation.

As they explored every nook and cranny of the castle, from the gardens to the courtyards and even the underground workshops, they quickly discovered that, apart from the exits, they had free rein to roam wherever they pleased.

The magi tirelessly turned the Adra Castle upside down, leaving no stone unturned in their search. However, much to their disappointment, their efforts yielded n...

Once again, he fell asleep, and this time, he woke up within the dream realm uwing his own consciousness. He logged in to his "Eternal King" account and began observing his surroundings.

His gaze first fell upon the lifeless Adashino Hishiri – [A deceitful snake pretending to be dead. How foolish!]

It was satisfying to see that the second Noble Phantasm was still working.

Shirou directed his gaze towards the gate, only to find emptiness greeting him. "It f...

Adashino Hishiri... is dead!

As a key member of the Department of Policies and the supervisor of this inheritance, she unexpectedly died.

What's even more crucial is that most people's attention was focused on the blocked exit, and they didn't notice how Adashino died. It was only when they regained their senses that they saw her lifeless body impaled on the sword of the angel statue.

Only a few people noticed how she died, such as Mr. Dawn, who had a grave expression on his...

The so-called title of "King of Dead Apostles and True Ancestors" was nothing but a deceitful fabrication. The demon had bestowed upon her that title, cunningly exploiting it to manipulate her and subject her soul to unimaginable anguish.

For what seemed like an eternity, the demon had trapped her within a gilded cage, treating her like a mere pet, mercilessly observing her for over three long months before finally granting her freedom.

"Eter... Eter... Eternal King... Impossible... Impossible...!"

Altrouge gazed at Shirou's face, fixating on his fiery eyes, and her whole body shook uncontrollably. Fear was etched across her features, replacing the elegance and pride she once possessed.

Her eyes, once radiant and full of life, now seemed dull and lifeless, as if she were a marionette manipulated by unseen forces. With a quivering finger, she pointed at Shirou's face, her legs betraying her as she unconsciously to...

Upon entering the City of Angels, Luvia sensed a spell enveloping her. However, there was no hostility. It seemed to be just a scrying spell, so she didn't let it bother her or show any signs of animosity.

Waver's physical condition was downright dismal, almost akin to that of a miserable programmer from the 21st century. In his middle age, burdened by debts and sorely lacking in physical fitness, the one redeeming feature about him was his luscious, flowing black hair.

During their journey to the Adra Castle, Shirou and his group came across a priest who seemed to share Waver's sorry state.

Actually, it would be more accurate to say that this priest was being abruptly dragged along...

Gray has always known that her birth served as nothing more than a ceremonial tool for her clan's ambitious quest to resurrect the King of Knights.

In a Welsh village, a clan associated with the witch Morgan Le Fay has been meticulously planning the age-old ritual to bring back the King of Knights.

This intricate ritual demands the merging of the King's body, mind, and soul into one cohesive entity. Therefore, the clan creates descendants who bear a striking resemblance to the Kin...

Waver's Apartment, Late at Night

"Adra Castle... You drag me out in the dead of the night, and I'm thinking it's some kind of emergency. And now you're telling me it's just this so-called Angel City?"

When Shirou received the phone call so late, he had expected Waver to be entangled in something bizarre.

"Please!" Waver pleaded.

"I really don't want to get involved in all these magi-related affairs."

Waver insisted, "This is far from a trivial matter!"

Inside the restaurant.

Shirou glanced at Barthomeloi Lorelei and pulled back the black wall behind him, revealing a crowd of civilians.

"Oh no! It vanished! It just vanished!"

"The walls are disappearing!"

"What in the world is going on!?"

"Oh my goodness... Dear God, I beg you, please don't let anything awful happen to me."

As the black wall began to fade away, the people trapped behind it erupted into panic and shouted in alarm.

Nrvnqsr had no idea, but he instinctively wanted to avoid this mud.

However, it was already too late.

Shirou was a very cunning combatant.

The mud thrown at him was just a distraction. But the true danger lay in the silent flow of mud seeping into the ground from Shirou's shoes.

As Nrvnqsr considered evasion, numerous crimson hands began to emerge from the ground. They resembled demonic hands, as if rising from an abyss, and swiftly latched onto his body.

Arcueid wore a serious expression as she replied, "You should find a place to hide, Caules."

Caules nodded, his fear evident, and hurriedly moved to take cover behind the nearby furniture.

It was already past 9 o'clock in the evening, while in Fuyuki City on the other side of the planet, it was just past 6 o'clock in the morning.

The next morning, Shirou and Arcueid strolled out of the hotel side by side.

As the clock approached 8 o'clock in the evening, the group concluded their meal, and Shirou made preparations to bid his farewell.

"Um... um... hold on... just a moment, Fujimaru-sama," Gray suddenly raised her head, her voice filled with timidity as she called out to him.

Curious, he asked, "What's on your mind, young lady?"

Trembling slightly, Gray mustered her courage and hesitantly continued, "Um... it's just... earlier, you mentioned something about the Tower of Light....

Waver was quite "generous". After receiving compensation from the deceased's son, he wasted no time in inviting Shirou to grab a bite at a roadside barbecue stall, leaving him at a loss for words.

Moreover, as a magus affiliated with the Department of Policies, your quick grasp of the situation leads me to suspect that you've had some involvement in this case."
