Chapter 206: Oh my! Where did you put the Jeweled Sword?
🕑 Added 2025-09-01 03:00:07 +0000 UTC【 With the help of Illya, Emiya Shirou saw the past memories of this spiritual vein here, and also saw the origin of their creation of the Holy Grail War. The structure of the Jeweled Sword was deeply engraved in Emiya Shirou's mind. 】
【 At night, Emiya Shirou, who had returned home, lay on his futon, silently enduring the pain of his body gradually collapsing. At this moment, an uninvited guest arrived outside his room. “Your condition is very bad, Emiya Shirou!” 】
【 “Rider...” Emiya Shirou propped himself up and looked at the shadow reflected outside the door. 】
【 Rider spoke softly to Emiya Shirou through the door, “I have been monitoring you. Although my mission is to protect Emiya Shirou, you have created a weapon to fight Sakura.” 】
【 “Since you intend to harm Sakura, I can no longer protect you.” 】
【 “Are you... Here to kill me?” Hearing the sound of chains falling outside, Emiya Shirou asked in confusion. 】
【 “Sakura summoned me without any catalyst. In this situation, a Servant similar to the Master will be chosen.” At this point, Rider's voice became low, with a hint of sadness. She tightly clenched the twin blades in her hands. “I don't want Sakura to become a monster?! Shirou, if you also make Sakura suffer...” 】
【 Even though the other party might be here to kill him, Emiya Shirou still opened the door without any fear. “I'm not going to kill her, I'm going to save her! I will protect Sakura until the very last moment!” 】
【 “No matter what happens, I will choose Sakura!” 】
【 “This is... the answer to that question from before?” Rider was shocked by Emiya Shirou's words. She didn't expect that there was someone who could do this much for Sakura. 】
【 “For this, I must defeat someone. Come and help me.” Emiya Shirou extended his hand to Rider. To save Sakura, Rider's strength was indispensable. 】
【 “I understand...” The chained twin blades in Rider's hands dissipated into spiritual particles. She took Emiya Shirou's outstretched hand. “Servant Rider, although it is only temporary, I am willing to become your wings and help you fly to the ends of the earth.” 】

“Are these magus all crazy?! Or what exactly exists at the so-called 'Root'? They'll do anything to reach the 'Root'.”
“Emiya Archer, look at that guy's eloquence. Look at yours. Some people can persuade a Servant to help in just a few sentences, while others can't persuade anyone even after fighting to the death.”
They are clearly the same person; no wonder Emiya Archer is always being a riddle-man, speaking unclearly. The eloquence difference is too big!
Look at Emiya Shirou's actions, opening the door also opened Rider's heart.

“Can this Emiya Shirou really project the Jeweled Sword?!”
Tohsaka Tokiomi was filled with shock. How old was Emiya Shirou to be able to reach such a level?
Moreover, Lord Zelretch had assigned the reproduction of the Jeweled Sword as a task to their Tohsaka family, but the Jeweled Sword simply couldn't be made. The more they researched, the more impossible it seemed. Thus, hundreds of years passed, and no one had ever achieved it.
Now the facts were before him, forcing Tohsaka Tokiomi to believe it. After all, Emiya Shirou's 'Projection Reinforcement' was a cheating-level ability. He could perfectly replicate even Heroic Spirits' Noble Phantasms. It was possible he could really do it.
~A Certain Magical Index World, Academy City~
“This Emiya Shirou's ability is really outrageous. He can project something almost indistinguishable from the real thing just by looking at it.”
Index, who claimed to have 103,000 grimoires, couldn't help but twitch her mouth at the sight.
Wouldn't her own spiritual item, the 'Moving Church,' be able to have its structure known just by him looking at it, and then be perfectly projected?
This guy... Index finally understood why so many people hated pirated copies...

“If you don't rely on a catalyst, you'll summon a Servant with a very good affinity with the Master...”
Tohsaka Rin looked up and down at Emiya Archer with suspicious eyes, remembering how annoying Emiya Archer looked when she first summoned him.
Emiya Archer was summoned using her gem solution, without any catalyst. But, was this considered having good affinity?!
“Speaking of affinity... It's no wonder Shirou can summon Saber. Their natures are also very similar, both completely disregarding themselves.”
“Uh, sorry, Rin. If it were before, I would agree with you, but now...”
Artoria shook her head after hearing Tohsaka Rin's opinion. After all, she already knew that my scabbard was inside Emiya Shirou's body.
“I think the reason I was summoned by him is more likely because of my scabbard inside Shirou's body.”
“Uh, haha.”
Tohsaka Rin awkwardly laughed to cover it up, as she had indeed forgotten about this. Then she looked back at the screen to hide her embarrassment.

【 When Emiya Shirou and Rider reached an agreement, Tohsaka Rin looked at the Jeweled Sword in her hand, not knowing what to think. Then she put the Jeweled Sword under her skirt and put it away (honestly, I'm also curious where she put it). 】
【 At this moment, the lights in the room suddenly went out. She glanced at the window and then closed her eyes. She already had the answer in her heart. “I was wondering why you were willing to come back? It turns out you just sent a shadow over. You're putting on airs now, Sakura.” 】
【 Tohsaka Rin turned her head and looked indifferently at the shadow outside the door behind her. She didn't seem surprised by Sakura's arrival. 】
【 “Sister, take Senpai and run away quickly! Then I will perish together with this child.” 】
【 Hearing Sakura's plea, Rin's face showed no fluctuation. Instead, she asked her a question. “Sakura, I ask you, do you want to be separated from Angra Mainyu?” 】
【 The shadow of Sakura outside the door suddenly flickered, and then appeared on the wall inside the room, with its back to Tohsaka Rin. “No, this is the power I finally got. I don't want to abandon it, and I can't.” 】
【 Rin slightly turned her head to look at the shadow on the wall. “After I run away with Shirou, you will have the ability to die together with Angra Mainyu, is that what you mean?” 】
【 “Yes, so...” The black shadow appeared on the wall behind her again, its body constantly flickering. 】
【 Although Tohsaka Rin was asking, her tone was full of certainty: “It should be that you don't know how long you can endure!” 】
【 “Did you find out! Everything you said just now was contradictory. You just said you wanted to perish with him, but you don't want to be separated from him.” 】
【 “Don't worry, I'll find you soon... find you, and then kill you completely.” 】
【 After hearing Tohsaka Rin's words, the shadow gradually began to melt, covering the entire house. Then it returned to the broken voice of Black Sakura. “Okay, I'll be waiting for you. Sister!” 】
【 Only after Black Sakura left did the lights in the room truly turn on again. 】
【 。。。。。】
~Projection of All Worlds~
“Wait!!! I have a serious question: Where did Tohsaka Rin put the Jeweled Sword? Didn't she just put it under her skirt, and it disappeared like that?!”
“As everyone knows, there is another space under a girl's skirt, called the seventh dimension... Maybe it was put there.”
“It's clear who is superior and who is inferior. After seeing the shadow on the wall and comparing it with Tohsaka Rin, you know what the wealth gap is.”
The people from other worlds were also a little confused about Dark Sakura's thoughts, or perhaps, as Tohsaka Rin said, everything Dark Sakura said just now was contradictory.
While saying she wanted to perish with Angra Mainyu, she was also reluctant to give up this hard-earned power.
If this continues, it will be painful for Shirou, not to mention Emiya Shirou, who has already made up his mind to save Sakura... After all, being a hero of justice ceased to exist from the moment he didn't kill Sakura.
~Type-Moon World, Fourth Holy Grail War Worldline~
“Has it finally come to this?!”
Tohsaka Tokiomi closed his eyes in pain. Although he had anticipated it, he still couldn't accept such a fact.
Especially after seeing the confrontation between the two sisters, and when Tohsaka Rin said she would personally end Sakura's life, his heart was constantly tormented.
If he hadn't sent Sakura to the Matou family, Sakura wouldn't have suffered such torment, and they wouldn't be in this situation of sisters fighting each other now...
The guilt and pain in his heart were almost enough to break this mage who had always prided himself on elegance!
