Chapter Seventy-One: It's Close, and Everyone Is Enemies!
Shirou looked at the diver's face.
Familiar and unfamiliar.
Even if he was alienated into such a hideous face, he could still recognize it. Like Shinji Makiri, his best friend.
"Ishei ......"
Emiya Shirou muttered.
"Hey, it's impossible, Shirou, you're mistaken...... One percent? ”
Subconsciously wanted to refute Shirou Emiya, Shinji Makiri, and his voice gradually lowered.
"Ah, hey, that's really Yicheng!"
After discovering that this terrifying deep diver "Father God Dagon" was a friend he knew, somehow, the strange pressure brought to them by the deep diver instantly weakened a lot.
"yes, Issei, how did you become like this?"
Struggling to stand up with the giant sword, Emiya Shirou, who wanted to walk over, was pulled by Shinji Makiri.
"It's not right!"
"What's the matter, Shinji, Issei won't hurt us."
"No, it's not."
Overcoming the fear in his heart, Shinji Maki stood up cautiously and stared closely into the eyes of "Yanagito Issei". Deep divers can intermarry with humans, so it's possible for a human to become a deep diver, at least as Shinji had seen in that book. But Yanagito Kazunari is definitely not that kind of person. Strict monk, this is his biggest impression of Yanagito Issei, definitely not the monster that can unleash evil thoughts underground to attack humans.
Not to mention, how he turned into a six-meter-tall monster who was originally an ordinary person.
"Possessed or alienated, or transformed, or something else, in short, this guy is no longer the one we know. Run, Shirou, we can't stop that guy! ”
Shinji said anxiously to Emiya Shirou.
"How is that possible?"
Even though he began to be suspicious of his friend's situation, Emiya Shirou was unwilling to give up Yanagito Issei easily, and he began to call Yanagito Isseari's name in an attempt to get the other party's attention.
"Shirou, stop doing such meaningless things." ‘
Gritting his teeth, Shinji Maki said.
"If Issei is still Issei, then he will definitely be fine. If he is no longer him, it is useless to shout here now. ”
“…… All right. ”
Finally, he glanced at "Yanagito Issei", who was staring at them without moving, and Emiya Shirou struggled for a moment, and finally prepared to leave first. They really can't do anything here.
And at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
"Yanagito Kazunari", who was muttering an inexplicable frenzied cry, suddenly jumped in front of them on all fours like a frog, and smashed his fist higher than a human into the two of them.
"Danger!"
Emiya Shirou hurriedly picked up the giant sword to block the attack, and then he felt a huge force like an angry wave fall heavily on the sword, and after a stalemate for less than a moment, the strengthened arm let out a wail, and the bones of the left hand that resisted the sword began to twist unnaturally, and the defensive posture was instantly disintegrated.
The next moment, I saw that the two of them were smashed away by the power of "Liudong Yicheng" and landed in the middle of a group of beasts outside the people.
"Ahh!!h
Blocking that blow, Emiya Shirou only felt that the bones in his left hand were broken quite completely, and the pain instantly hit his brain. Although he had been trained to adapt to pain and practiced magic healing, he was now only a half-ass, and he couldn't resist the piercing pain.
So he simply fainted.
"Hey, hey, Shirou, what's wrong with you!"
Shinji Makiri, who had been well protected, was not injured much, and even so, he still felt like his internal organs were overturned. Struggling to crawl to his friend's side, Shinji Maki cried and screamed, trying to wake up the red-haired boy.
But there is no way, no matter what, he can't wake up Emiya Shirou. Fortunately, it looks like it's just vertigo, not life-threatening. However, it seems that the left hand with twisted bones cannot be saved, and even if they can escape this catastrophe, Emiya Shirou will lose his left hand forever.
"Goo-goo-goo-goo......"
As if killing some insect at random, "Yanagito Issei" jumped twice like a frog and slowly jumped towards the two of them.
"Damn it!"
Shinji Magimi gritted his teeth, flipped the book to the last page, and pulled out a golden card. It was the strongest card sealed in the book, the smiling image of a diminutive old man.
He doesn't care about the price of the sacrifice after summoning now, if he can't escape this catastrophe, everything is in vain!
Thinking like this, he suddenly had a few more beasts outside of humans in his vision.
Trouble!
It takes time to summon, but "Yanagito Issei" smashed them into the side of this group of tentacle monsters!
Seeing that those tentacles were about to tear Shinji Makiri, he suddenly let go of the book in his hand.
"Forget it, I can't summon it...... Looks like today is the end of my life. ”
I'm really unwilling.
For the first time, I really got the power of magic (magic) in the absurd ancient books of my ancestors. For the first time, with a delusional desire to save the world, he really began to fight side by side with his friends. For the first time, I felt that my ordinary life had changed.
It's really unwilling.
Looking at the attacking tentacles, the corners of Shinji Makiri's mouth outlined a wry smile.
Isn't there anything left along with the possibility of perdition......
It's really unwilling......
Thinking like this, he suddenly heard a voice.
Time seems to stand still - that's a bit wrong, because time is relatively still in Fuyuki now. It should be said that in the eyes of Shinji Makiri, time has stood still.
Those attacking tentacles, the "Yanagito Issei" jumping in mid-air, all stopped.
"You."
The echo of the old man echoed in the depths of Shinji Makiri's heart in this strange state.
"Who do you want to be?"
Who will speak again?
It's wonderful, obviously it should be on guard against that voice, but that old voice brings a sense of intimacy to Shinji Makiri.
"I ......"
Someone I want to be.
"I want to be ......"
Unwilling, unwilling to die like this, Shinji Makiri, began to reflect on his heart. Who do you want to be? Great, bright, positive, adventurous, or ......
Muttering, Shinji answered the voice in his heart.
Where he couldn't see, the card in his hand that was falling, was glowing strangely.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
When consciousness returned to the normal flow of time, Shinji Maki was stunned by what he saw.
A man, a man with a naked upper body, stood in front of him, and a little earlier, the remains of an extrahuman beast. It seems that the man saved himself and Shirou.
"Oh, you're regaining consciousness."
Beowufu looked at Shinji in surprise.
Originally, he felt that his sword was in this direction, and before he wanted to beat this group of monsters fiercely, he thought about recovering the weapon first. But when they arrived, they found that there were two more seriously injured teenagers, one had fainted, and the other seemed to be immersed in a certain state.
"You, hello."
Shinji cautiously greeted the man.
"Ah, without further ado, I'm going to beat these guys in a minute."
Beowulf stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, whether it was an alien beast that caused him to be divided by concepts, or a deep diver, it was his target.
"You should go and stay in the back. Well, I think the maid should have put you in the category of allies, just hide from the thorns. ”
"No, allow me to refuse."
Shinji thought about it, but shook his head firmly.
"Allow me to help you and fight together. Even if you're strong, you'll be overwhelmed by so many monsters. ”
"Oh, I didn't expect you kid to be quite kind, what about that red-haired kid."
Shirou he ...... Shirou bothered the maid to take care of him. I guess you and the maid lady who controls this enchantment should be on the same side. ”
“…… Well, I don't know if the maid will help or not. Beowulf shrugged his shoulders, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and a thick thorn immediately obeyed the order and wrapped around Emiya Shirou and left the place. Compared to them, who were just not attacked by thorns, Beowulf's authority was quite high.
"Alright, boy, don't hold back! It's rare to have an almost infinite supply of mana, so it's not good to make a big fuss, how can you be worthy of the master's spell...... It's a pity that it's not human, but it's not bad! ”
As he spoke, Beowulf made a boxing move. And with his voice, the [Final Seal of Blood Glory] that had been left on the ground slowly turned into an aether and disappeared.
"It's going to be up!"
He shouted like an ancient giant roaring in the sky.
Beowulf jumped up from the ground, crossed a distance of tens of meters in an instant, and then slammed down!
The beast under his feet let out a cry of pain, and Beowulf, who stood on his back, smelled a familiar smell. Mixed with the liquefied philosopher's stone, the smell of corruption.
Next, there is only a constant fist swing.
It only takes three punches, and a beast that is not weak can turn into fragments in the sky.
The Deep Diver hiding behind is a bit more troublesome, and the fist that unleashes the blood-colored brilliance requires five powerful blows to break through the magical defenses and tear the immortal half-fishman apart.
As for the monsters, ha, that's the simplest, those xenomorphs that look like upright squids can't even hold out for a moment under his fist style.
This is the Beowulf of the Full Period, the original berserker, the Norse wolf.
Lifting the restrictions of his profession, although the E-rank madness did not improve his combat effectiveness, it did not weaken his will, allowing this peak martial artist to swing his fists wantonly on the battlefield of this monster.
Yes, just a fist swing is all it takes.
It's close at hand, and everyone is in the enemy country!

PS2: FGO married Nero...... Overall, it feels like a regular four-star Nero...... Although the Noble Phantasm is a bit of nonsense, and it has changed from the exclusive category of Noble Phantasm to the Sword of Man...... It seems to be the trick of the confession sword...... The three retention skills also make people complain, and the physical attributes are not as good as the four-star in some aspects...... Excludes Noble Phantasm......
Forget it, you can lick it~
