The Epic Story of the Heroic Spirit of Emiya Giant Warrior

"Yes, the Dungeon deeply hates Gods. Once a God releases their divine power within the Dungeon's boundaries, the Dungeon will react violently."

"So, the projection copies not only the Noble Phantasms, but also the abilities and characteristics of the Heroic Spirits?"

Shirou recalled the last time he used [Hounds of Culann] and [Shoot Down the Hundred Heads] to fight the monsters.

He realized that he was indeed mentally overexcited at the time, and his rationality was weakened. At the same time, it seemed that along with the weakening of his rationality, his strength, speed, and endurance had all increased.

"But, I'm so glad you're okay."

After venting her emotions, Hephaestus leaned down and gently hugged Shirou: "Welcome back, Shirou."

After a long while, Hephaestus released Shirou, she tilted her head slightly and asked:

Shirou nodded: "Yes, Miss Amid said that I still need three days before I can get out of bed."

Shirou: "Update now?"

"The increase in endurance will increase your recovery efficiency. Maybe after the update, you'll only need two days to get out of bed."

Hephaestus had only heard a brief account from Ais Wallenstein of the Loki Familia, and there were still some vague details. She would definitely need to hear Shirou's detailed account of the whole story later.

"Oh my god."

From the mouth of Hephaestus, a Goddess, came such an exclamation, which shows how strongly her heart was shocked.

Shirou Emiya.

Lv.1.

Endurance: SS1129.

Agility: SS1001.

Development Abilities:

Magic.

[Unlimited Blade Works]

[????? (Roadless Valhalla)]

"Shirou, what kind of battle did you actually go through?"

Hephaestus asked seriously.

Shirou then recounted everything he had experienced in the Dungeon in detail.

Although it was no longer something that an ordinary Lv.1 adventurer could do, it was still within the realm of understanding.

But what happened later was a bit too abstract.

Hephaestus couldn't believe it for a moment.

"Well, there should be that much."

Shirou said somewhat guiltily, he concealed some unimportant issues from the Goddess, such as the specific ritual to activate [Oath Under Snow].

Fortunately, the Goddess was so shocked by Shirou's achievements that she didn't notice these details.

After a long silence, the Goddess finally accepted reality: "If something like this happened, then this level of growth is reasonable."

In addition, the skill [Oath Under Snow] itself has the effects of "accelerating ability growth" and "breaking through ability value limits." Looking at it this way, the extent of Shirou's ability value increase seems to be logical.

Then, the Goddess said: "Shirou, you can level up."

His current ability values are already enough to lay a solid foundation for the boy's future.

As for great achievements, there is absolutely no need to doubt them. If a battle of that level doesn't count as a great achievement, then perhaps no adventurer in Orario can level up.

After a long period of anticipation, he was finally able to level up.

Even on average, the time it takes for adventurers to level up from Lv.2 to Lv.3 is often shorter than from Lv.1 to Lv.2. The first level ascension has absolute difficulty and value.

"Although leveling up in a hospital instead of the Familia's base feels a bit less ceremonial, but according to your ability values, Shirou, if you complete the level ascension, you should be able to recover ahead of schedule tomorrow, right?"

Hephaestus recited one by one: "[Swordsman], [Archer], [Hunter], [Blacksmithing]..."

Generally, only adventurers who have achieved something in the field of these weapons and have used the weapon extensively in the previous level will display these types of development abilities.

For Shirou, both [Swordsman] and [Archer] are good choices, but it's a pity that there are two other development skills.

Development Ability [Hunter], its effect is to increase the ability to fight against a certain monster after the owner has defeated that monster.

The condition for the appearance of [Hunter] is to kill a large number of monsters in a short period of time, which is more difficult to obtain, and the development ability [Hunter] will only appear when leveling up to Lv.2.

In other words, if you give up [Hunter] at this time, there will be no chance to obtain it in the future.

A blacksmith with [Blacksmithing] can add special abilities to his works. It can be said that only by obtaining [Blacksmithing] is it possible to create high-level equipment.

"Goddess, which of these two development abilities should I choose?"

Shirou asked Hephaestus for her opinion.

Hephaestus said: "Because there is one more development ability you can obtain—[Mystery]"

A simple introduction is: [Mystery] can activate God's miracle, so it is also called [God's Skill].

So far, the specific effects that [Mystery] has shown in each owner are different, and it can be said that even the Gods cannot understand the full picture of [Mystery].

Ami's adventurer level is Lv.2, she only has [Mystery] as a development ability, and does not have the [Alchemy] required by pharmacists.

In the medical field, Lv.2 Ami is able to surpass those healers with higher levels, reaching Lv.3 and Lv.4, standing at the pinnacle of Orario, [Mystery] plays a very important role.

If Ami can level up to Lv.3 and obtain [Alchemy], the quality of her already amazing potions will be able to take another step.

Shirou does need [Blacksmithing], and it is also a pity to miss [Hunter], but in front of [Mystery], these options are completely overshadowed.

Shirou Emiya.

Lv.1 -\u003e Lv.2.

Endurance: SS1129 -\u003e I0.

Agility: SS1001 -\u003e I0.

Development Ability: [Mystery] I.

Skill.

[Oath Under Snow]

Hephaestus explained, "Something like this has happened before."

Wei Gong sighed inwardly, a guess forming in his mind.

One must know that the divinity level of the demigod Heracles is quite high, and the initial disturbance in the dungeon occurred after he projected [False Nine Lives Blade Works] and entered that special state of man and weapon unity.

Clearly, this is a characteristic of [Berserk], albeit a lower level of berserk, where rationality is weakened but not lost.

Later, I need to find time to deeply test what changes have occurred in my projection ability in this world.

"Yes, I'm back, Lady Goddess."

Hephaestus's embrace is very warm, like being illuminated by a bright furnace, dispelling the chill in my heart.

"Shirou, the doctor said you need to lie down for a few more days to recover?"

Hephaestus thought for a moment, "Hmm, I see. Then let's just update your ability values first."

Hephaestus said, "Besides, I'm also curious to know how much you'll improve after this crisis."

However, more than words, Hephaestus wanted to know how "God's Grace" would showcase Shirou's adventure at the first moment.

Chapter 54: Level Ascension, Lv.2.

"It's like a dream, no, even in a dream I wouldn't dare to dream of such a thing."

At this moment, Wei Gong Shirou's ability value panel was displayed in front of her.

Strength: SS1101.

Dexterity: SSS1306.

Magic: SSS1437.

Skills.

[Oath Under the Snow]

All five ability values have reached S-rank or higher, with three exceeding the normal adventurer's limit of S999, reaching SS-rank, and Dexterity and Magic are unprecedented, unheard of SSS-rank.

The preceding was still normal. He single-handedly fought a large number of monsters, including two Silverback Gorillas, using only melee combat, and then, with the help of Lv.4 adventurer Alicia, he slew a young dragon.

"Are you saying that you killed at least a hundred monsters with potential abilities at Lv.2 while activating the skill [Oath Under the Snow]?"

Children of the Lower World cannot lie in front of the gods, but Wei Gong doesn't think this is a lie. He just thinks that some unimportant things don't need to be known by the goddess, that's all.

"...Okay."

As a Lv.1, killing hundreds of monsters with potential abilities reaching Lv.2 is equivalent to directly injecting a large amount of the "great deeds" that other adventurers can use for level ascension into ability values, thus obtaining such a huge amount of growth, even breaking the limit.

"Indeed, crisis forges great deeds, and trials create heroes."

Hephaestus sighed softly.

The ability values have undoubtedly reached the standard, and at this level, there is no room for improvement at all. Unless Wei Gong goes on an adventure again and fights high-level monsters, but doing so is not only dangerous but also inefficient.

"Well, let's upgrade."

Although she had expected it, Wei Gong couldn't help but feel excited when she heard the goddess's words.

From Lv.1 to Lv.2 is the biggest threshold for all adventurers. More than half of the adventurers in Orario are stuck at Lv.1, and many adventurers struggle for decades before barely upgrading to Lv.2.

Hephaestus said, "So, let's upgrade as soon as possible."

The goddess began the upgrade ritual.

"Development abilities, as expected, there are some, and there are several to choose from."

The effects of [Swordsman] and [Archer] are similar, both enhancing the adventurer's ability to use a certain weapon, the former being a sword, the latter being a bow, which are very solid development abilities.

At the same time, it will also be affected by the adventurer's perception and will. Wei Gong doesn't know yet that Alicia has ascended from Lv.4 to Lv.5, and if he hadn't shattered Alicia's confidence in archery, the development ability Alicia would have obtained should have been [Archer] instead of [Swordsman].

For adventurers who mainly operate in the dungeon and often fight monsters, [Hunter] is almost one of the most useful development abilities. Owners of [Hunter] can often sweep monsters at a speed far exceeding the average, gaining higher adventure income or growth.

As for the development ability [Blacksmith], its importance is even more self-evident. This is the development ability that countless blacksmiths dream of.

"[Hunter] and [Blacksmith], it's really hard to choose."

But in terms of the value of development abilities, [Blacksmith] is currently the ability that Wei Gong needs more, but once [Hunter] is missed, there will be no chance to obtain it again.

"Choose neither."

Chapter 55: [Mystic] and [Knight Never Dies with Empty Hands]

The development ability [Mystic] is recognized as one of the rarest and most valuable of all known development abilities.

What can be determined is that [Mystic] is a necessary ability for making magic tools.

There are no more than five owners of [Mystic] in the entire Orario, one of whom is close at hand, Amid Teasanare of the Dian Cecht Familia.

However, while [Mystic] grants her the ability to create high-level prosthetic limbs of the magic tool level, it also enhances the effects of her healing magic, even making her potions more effective than the works of many alchemists with [Alchemy].

In a sense, the development ability [Mystic] can almost be regarded as the superior of production-type development abilities such as [Alchemy], [Blacksmith], and [Goldsmithing], and at the same time, [Mystic] can complement these development abilities.

Without any hesitation, Wei Gong chose [Mystic] as his development ability.

His level ascension was officially completed.

Strength: SS1101 - I0.

Dexterity: SSS1306 - I0.

Magic: SSS1437 - I0.

Magic.
