The Epic Story of the Heroic Spirit of Emiya Giant Warrior

The second moon hanging in the sky, "Artemis's Bow," finally disappeared.

Freya said, "Yes, Artemis's martial prowess is also ranked among the top gods."

However, the reason why "Artemis's Bow" is terrifying is mainly because of the blessing from [Divine Power].

For example, Hephaestus, another goddess present. Whether it's her [World Shield] used to block attacks, or the [Fire God Sword] slashing out, both are enough to withstand the fatal blow of Artemis's Bow.

However, there is an absolute bottom line that gods cannot cross: Divine Power cannot be used.

This is an absolute rule. Whether it's divine might, divine duty, divine authority, or divine will, they can be tolerated to some extent under certain circumstances, but Divine Power alone is always a taboo.

Because even those evil gods and heretical gods, even if they failed countless times, lost everything, and became a laughing stock, they did not use their Divine Power to destroy the world.

Precisely because of this, Artemis's actions cannot be forgiven. Although her original intention in using Divine Power was to save the children of her Familia, the consequences of this action are by no means comparable to sacrificing a few lives.

And as the instigator of this disaster, the Moon Goddess Artemis will also pay the most惨烈 price for it.

Hephaestus said softly.

Loki said, "Really, it's been worrying me for a long time."

Freya chuckled.

Loki was furious: "Don't be annoying, I wouldn't do such a thing, only you love-brained goddesses would cry and sob..."

"Um..."

Loki said somewhat awkwardly: "Actually, I also..."

Looking at Freya, who easily overwhelmed Loki, Hephaestus shook her head helplessly.

"This is Artemis's divine will, what is she going to do again?!"

Artemis also selected these gods, and in the end, about thirty gods received the divine will she transmitted.

Undoubtedly, this is also a violation of the rules, so serious that it requires repatriation to the divine world, but Artemis's future situation is obviously not something to consider repatriation for the time being.

This is a rule of causality. The stronger the agreement or restraint, the more powerful the artifact can be given.

Almost instantly, dozens of divine wills burst out rapidly in the mortal world. Even if the gods violated the rules, they were eager to respond with their own will.

Forging that [Sword] in an incredible way, Shirou held the starlight-like flame in his hand and walked towards Antares.

A true divine weapon, "Orion's Arrow"; magic power vast enough to erase a city; the great feat of challenging the "Divine Magic Beast"; the thought-body of a goddess who dedicated everything; endless swords in the Unlimited Blade Works; the constraints set with thirteen goddesses—

"Holy Sword, draw."

Take pride in this will, and carry this belief through to the end.

At this moment, the ever-victorious king sings the true name of the miracle in his hand.

Witness it—

"【Excalibur Artemis】!"

【Rhongomyniad】

Its true form is said to be the tower that binds the surface of the world. Its rank and type will change when its true name is released.

The Holy Lance Rhongomyniad uses the [Pillar of Light] that sustains the surface of the world as its main body. Due to the existence of the Thirteen Restraints, which have the same procedure as the [Star Holy Sword That Saves the World], it is in a state of barely maintaining its shape as a Noble Phantasm.

Originally managed by the spirits of the stars, it was managed by the Lady of the Lake, and through the magician Merlin as an intermediary, it was handed over to King Arthur.

It can transform the wielder's magic power into light, and then emit it like a beam of light from the tip of the downward-swinging sword, so as to destroy all things.

There were two golden-haired female knights, one tall and one short, one with a plump figure, exuding a mature and noble temperament; the other seemed slender and weak, but no less heroic. Their postures were beautiful and solemn, like heroic spirits from ancient legends.

Just then, one of the female knights, with a faint golden light flashing in her eyes, seemed to glance in her direction.

In the instant of eye contact with the faint golden eyes of the female knight's phantom, Riveria felt as if a huge force struck from the void, like a heavy hammer slamming into her head.

The radiance of the Holy Sword rose, reflecting in every corner of this snowfield, as if to break this endless winter and awaken all the will and belief buried in the ice and snow.

As the blade swung, the light became more and more dazzling, becoming an aurora in the snowy night, piercing through the sky.

Under the pressure of the Pillar of Light that pierced through the sky and the earth, Antares could no longer fire that arrow. Artemis's will resonated with the light of the Holy Sword, and the divine power it had stolen began to devour itself.

Antares's figure seemed to have never existed, completely erased from the end of this snowfield.

"—Shirou."

Hearing the goddess's voice, Shirou slowly opened his eyes.

What unfolded before him was an endless snowfield where the wind and snow had stopped, and fragments of light falling from the sky, like dancing fluorescent spring rain, quietly descending.

Upon the high platform of the Tower of Babel.

Goddess Loki gently exhaled a breath: "That was a close call. If that thing had really fired, we gods in Orario, unable to use our divine power, wouldn't have been able to stop it."

If the gods could use their divine power, the situation would be very different.

Without even joining forces, many of the gods in Orario could have withstood that arrow.

Give Loki some time, and she could also prepare a powerful magic to effectively defend against it.

As for Freya, if she were allowed to use her divine power, Ottar, that boar-man [Berserker] in the dungeon, could really unleash the power to devour the moon.

Even if the Lower World were facing a world-ending crisis, the gods absolutely must not use their divine power to save it.

This may seem unreasonable, but the principle is extremely simple—

The power of the gods is too great: creating everything, destroying everything, controlling everything, all-knowing, all-powerful.

Once this taboo is broken, everything in the "Lower World" will lose its meaning.

The goddess's actions ultimately triggered an extremely serious disaster—the 'Antares' who stole the power of the moon god.

In a sense, this is a more dangerous, deadly, and terrifying monster than that Black Dragon.

Orario, even the entire Lower World, truly walked along the edge of destruction.

"The Bow of Artemis has disappeared. Did those children win?"

"I think so."

"Loki, you wouldn't be hiding in your blankets crying because you're thinking about having to say goodbye to the children, would you?~"

"I cried."

Freya replied calmly.

Loki: "What?"

Freya raised her head and smiled: "The thought of possibly never seeing those children again made me burst into tears. Is that something to be ashamed of?"

Suddenly, the three goddesses stood up at the same time, their gazes fixed in the same direction.

Artemis's divine will erupted completely, enveloping all the gods within the reach of moonlight in the mortal world, even those still residing in the divine realm.

And her divine will, in reality, was only to convey one message.

"The Divine Weapon forged by the Child of the Lower World is complete. We sincerely invite you to make a pact with him to help it ascend."

Making a pact, or rather a [Binding], in exchange for the Divine Weapon's ascension, was a principle Shirou had learned from a certain sword.

Their divine wills all had only one sentence:

"Me! Choose me!"

Chapter 150: Star Holy Sword.

"The constraints are set, the Holy Sword is formed."

Within the blizzard of the Reality Marble, the crescent moon and the blazing sun had both retreated, leaving only the holy flame burning fiercely in Shirou's hands.

And, the prototype of this "Holy Sword," that [Fate] destined to be connected with Shirou.

All of this converged into this miracle that would save the world.

[Thirteen Constraints Released, Goddess Council Begins.]

[This battle is a battle for survival.]

[This battle is a battle to uphold justice.]

[This battle is fought for beautiful things.]

[This battle is a battle accompanied by goddesses.]

[Acknowledged. —Demeter]

[This battle is a battle where swords point towards the gods.]

[This battle is a battle to save the world.]

[Acknowledged. —Amaterasu]

[This battle is a battle to protect family.]

[This battle is a battle to challenge powerful enemies.]

[This battle is a battle for the highest love.]

[Acknowledged. —Tiamat]

This Holy Sword, shining with light, is the tragic and sublime ideal held in the hearts of all the warriors who died on the battlefield in the past, present, and future.

The objects Shirou imitated were two Noble Phantasms with the same concept of "Thirteen Constraints"—

The Noble Phantasm possessed by Artoria Pendragon, King Arthur.

The Holy Lance, the Anchor of Storms that tethers the stars.

Even if its original power is restricted by the Thirteen Restraints, it is still the Faraway Lance that sings the light of the stars and shines.

[Sword of Promised Victory (Excalibur)]

Also belonging to Artoria Pendragon, King Arthur.

Standing at the pinnacle of the Holy Sword category.

It was not forged by humans.

Crystallized within the planet using people's thoughts as raw materials, it is one of the ultimate god-forged armaments as the "Strongest Phantasm."

"Thank you, Artoria."

Shirou whispered the name of this Heroic Spirit he had never met.

Riveria, her clothes stained with blood, rubbed her eyes. In this daze, she seemed to see two phantoms, hazy and mysterious, standing beside Shirou.

Their fingertips gently rested on Shirou's hands, which were tightly gripping the [Holy Sword].

Moonlight filtered through the swaying snowflakes, dappling and scattering, reflecting on their golden hair, plating it with a layer of sacred radiance.

Riveria watched this scene, her heart trembling, unable to distinguish whether it was an illusion or reality.

A buzzing sound suddenly rang in her ears, and her consciousness instantly became blurred. She staggered, almost unable to stand.

The next moment, Riveria concentrated her mind and stared over, but the two phantoms had quietly disappeared, leaving only Shirou standing there, holding the [Holy Sword] that shone with light.

The pillar of light surged, transforming into an endless torrent of moonlight, sweeping across the entire world.

It was an unstoppable force, the divine will from the Moon Goddess, carrying the highest and best judgment and redemption, instantly enveloping Antares, as if time had stopped at this moment.

The scorpion monster's roar was gradually buried in the torrent of the light of cessation. Its pitch-black body gradually collapsed in this endless radiance, its tail stinger broke, its limbs dissolved, and finally, it was completely swallowed by the light.

"Where is this—"
