Chapter 1476: Provocation? That"s my talent!
"You really come..."
When this voice rang to his ears, Haru finally saw the scene in the bright light.
It was a completely different scene from the surrounding white s.p.a.ce.
Haru could see a gleaming altar and on the body of the altar, there was a huge magic loop.
There were crisscrossing lines, forming an extremely complex and incomprehensible pattern on the altar, exuding indescribable beauty.
It was the main body of the Holy Grail, the ritual magic circle of the Holy Grail War based on the Third Magic.
Before the magic circle, a youth named Amakusa Shirou Tokisada was standing there, watching Haru, who was walking toward him.
Looking at Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, Haru immediately noticed the change in this saint.
First of all, Amakusa Shirou"s upper body was completely exposed, and his two arms were wrapped in magic spells, bursting out a powerful magic fluctuation.
On Shirou"s left arm was Xanadu Matrix and on his right arm was Evil Eater.
The two of his arms were the n.o.ble Phantasm of Amakusa Shirou Tokisada.
In addition, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada"s face was different from before, in the past, he showed a harmless smile and everyone who saw him, would think that it was impossible for him to hurt an ant, but at this moment, he showed an indifferent expression that disregarded everything.
However, one thing that didn"t change was a pair of eyes that were burning with scorching faith and belief.
Ignoring everything, following his belief and faith, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada wouldn"t stop his steps to realize his dream.
Just looking at those eyes would make anyone shiver in fear.
If someone"s willpower wasn"t enough, as long as someone was watched by those pair of eyes, they would be defeated in an instant.
However, Haru only smirked, looking at Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, who watched him with an indifferent expression and calm, wondering where this guy"s confidence came from.
Amakusa Shirou Tokisada kept staring at Haru, and he saw how calm this young man was. He couldn"t help but then said, "I know that in the end, you will definitely appear in front of me."
It wasn"t because of the information that was brought by his revelation skill, nor it was from his prediction, but rather it was from his belief.
After his meeting with Haru at the Fortress of Millennia, Shirou knew that his last enemy would be the young man in front of him.
"After all, you and I are completely incompatible."
Shirou looked at Haru and said, "Do you know why I say that?"
Haru showed disinterest, but he didn"t move, wondering whether this guy was buying time. However, he also understood why both of them were completely incompatible.
"It"s because you"re too stupid."
Haru smiled, but Shirou didn"t show a change in his emotion as if all of his emotion had been thrown away.
"I guess you"re more stupid than I thought since you decided to throw away your emotions, but then again I can guess why we"re completely incompatible."
Shirou raised his eyebrow when he heard Haru"s words, but he didn"t say anything.
"There"s one word that I want to say to you...."
Haru took a deep breath and shouted, "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!" He smiled and said, "In my eyes, you"re nothing but a coward and a sloth."
"...Coward? Sloth?" Shirou wasn"t sure why, but even though he had thrown his emotion, he could feel anger that was burning in his heart.
"Yes." Haru smiled and said, "You"re just a failure. 30,000 of your people is nothing but a fool, who is following you to death. If it was me, then I could throw over the shogunate and become the king!" He felt that Shirou was too useless, if this guy was a daimyo, rather than a saint, then it would be good in this opinion, sadly, he wasn"t.
"You"re thinking that a human needs your help? Don"t think of yourselves too highly. We don"t need you to guide us. We don"t need someone to save us. And you think that just by throwing away your emotions, you have become a higher being?" He snorted and said, "In my eyes, you"re only a patient with the delusional disease. In the end, all of us will die. Even the evilest men will die, and the person who killed you and your followers have died, so what are you afraid of?
In his view, humans didn"t need salvation, but guidance was needed.
Teach a man how to fish, not give them a fish.
What Shirou did was to give a fish to all people in this world, hoping that he could save them, but in Haru"s eyes, this guy was just too lazy.
If Shirou really wanted to help someone, he would use all of his power to become a figure that could make the world become better rather than using the power of the Holy Grail.
Even the saint wasn"t perfect and foolish, Haru felt that it was really a waste of time to talk with Shirou since, in this view, this guy was just too naive, lazy, and foolish.
It was also the reason why both of them were incompatible.
Shirou could see the disdain in Haru"s eyes. In his mind, Haru was that commander, who slain him and all of his followers in his life. In the past, he might have failed, but not at this moment. He was going to win and he was going to give salvation to all humans in this world.
"You will be my enemy and you"ll be my last obstacle."
His voice seemed to be very hostile at that moment, trying to hold the angry emotion that he had thrown before.
"If I don"t defeat you then my wish won"t come true."
His voice was full of obsession and he would kill the young man in front of him no matter what.
"Only you, someone who I need to defeat personally."
Hearing Shirou"s words, Haru chuckled since he really felt that this guy really had a chuunibyou.
Looking at Haru who was chuckling at his words, Shirou also understood that his words were idiotic.
Compared to Haru, who could defeat Adam, and all the servants on the Red Faction easily, Shirou was nothing, but a weak saint in the j.a.pan, and Shirou was also defeated easily by a commander in the past, without being able to do anything, trapped on the castle, watching all of his followers die, and then die with humiliation.
Facing Haru in front of him, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada was nothing but a fish that could be chopped anytime.
But this time, it was an exception...
"Here, both the laws of physics and the laws of magic are different from the outside. Our existence itself is in a state of instability. There is no concept of strength or weakness at all, and our willpower is the only thing that can maintain ourselves in this place."
Amakusa Shirou Tokisada explained calmly.
"I think you can understand it too, right?"
Amakusa Shirou Tokisada was probably trying to defeat Haru by using the environment inside the Holy Grail so his winning rate could increase.
In this place, where it was Haru or Shirou, their existence was itself unstable.
Here, they couldn"t use their power, and they could only fight using their spirit.
Haru and Shirou could only use the willpower, belief, faith, and skill that they had honed in their lives.
However...
Haru let out a sigh and said, "On what basis do you think that you can defeat me? The moment I appear in this Holy Grail War, your fate is already doomed. Your wish won"t be realized. I will take the Holy Grail and I will take your Semiramis too."
Hearing Haru"s words, Shirou"s expression had already become distorted.
"Semiramis is a fine woman, but you betray her." Haru smiled and said, "But don"t worry, I will take care of her in your place so please die with regret."
Shirou took a deep breath and said, "I have never thought that I want to kill someone so much in my life." Then the magic circle behind him burst into dazzling light and he was full of killing intent.
"I will kill you."
