Shirou Emiya Stands Upon the Continent of Terra Chapter 37

The Emperor took the tablet while complaining and opened the video.

Then the Emperor was struck by the "subway old man looking at his phone" meme.

"An indescribable Penguin scream, Longmen Curses, Yan Country Curses."

After watching the video, the Emperor let out a string of inappropriate words and almost smashed the tablet in his hand.

Isv stood quietly to the side, watching his boss throw a tantrum.

It was super stress-relieving.

"Hoo... hoo... this kid is that fierce? Is there any record of that ability of his?"

After a long rant, the Emperor took a breath and asked Isv for more information.

He wanted to see what kind of ability this was.

51 Hurry, hurry, hurry

Penguin Logistics, dormitory.

"Here it comes, here it comes, Crazy Thursday is here!"

Exusiai, standing at the door, shouted loudly, holding a large bag.

"Quickly, go inside."

Texas, behind her, lightly pushed Exusiai, who was blocking the door, and squeezed through the gap.

"Sister Neng, you're too fat, you're taking up the whole doorway."

Croissant, behind them, nudged Exusiai with her head.

"My back! Croissant, your horn poked me!"

After her back was poked by Croissant's horn, Exusiai felt like a hole had been poked in her back.

"Mhm... has Shirou finished organizing everything?"

Following the path Croissant had cleared, Sora also walked into the living room.

The living room had already been tidied up. After the last fried food party, Shirou had a good idea of where everyone liked to party, so this time he specifically brought a few small chairs and placed them next to the sofa.

"But where is Shirou?"

Exusiai placed the bag in her hand on the table, not seeing Shirou anywhere around.

"What's wrong?"

Shirou walked out of the kitchen, having just heard Exusiai calling him.

He had bought some fruit when he returned, and had just cut and plated it before putting it in the refrigerator. After eating the fried food, they could eat some cold fruit to cut through the grease.

"I just wanted to ask how your test went today."

Exusiai put on a "nosy bystander" expression.

"It should be pretty good? Isv said he'll send me the details later, I'll show you then."

Shirou let Exusiai have her curiosity, as they were all on the same team.

"I'm really looking forward to seeing you succeed!"

Croissant patted Shirou's shoulder and gave him a thumbs-up with her left hand.

"Go wash your hands quickly."

Shirou brushed off Croissant's hand and told them to wash their hands first, while he neatly arranged the fried food they had brought onto the table.

When the others returned after washing their hands, they saw that Shirou had already filled the table and poured the drinks.

All they had to do was eat.

"Ah, this kind of life is too comfortable."

Exusiai sat in her seat and sighed about how comfortable and a little decadent it was to be taken care of every day. She then picked up a sweet egg tart to whet her appetite.

As a Sarkaz, it was perfectly reasonable for her to treat sweets as a staple food.

The others also found their seats and began to enjoy the food they wanted.

Croissant and Texas directly started gnawing on fried chicken, while Sora contentedly took some fries and a burger, which was enough for her.

Shirou took about the same amount as Sora; the fried chicken was left for the meat-loving trio.

The word "meat" on Croissant's chest was enough to show how deeply she loved meat.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, why is Isv so slow?"

After finishing most of the fried food on the table, they started chatting.

Exusiai took the lead, complaining that Isv was too slow!

Their own results had come out immediately, so why was it taking so long for Shirou's?

Is he definitely slacking off!

"Do you really want to see Shirou's results that badly?"

Texas, chewing on a chicken bone, was pretty laid-back about Shirou's results.

She was just a little, tiny bit curious.

"Sister Neng must be worried someone will steal her sniper spot, so she wants to suppress him first! Go, brave Shirou, use your invincible bacon pie to suppress Exusiai!"

Croissant pointed at Exusiai, looking like she had figured everything out.

"Croissant, are you a demon?"

Sora, standing nearby, couldn't stand it. Making Exusiai eat bacon pie was too cruel.

"Sweet and savory apple pie?"

Shirou compromised.

"That's even crueler than bacon pie, strawberry Mapo Tofu, and pineapple pizza! Shirou, please don't make that kind of dark cuisine!"

Exusiai couldn't hold back anymore, trying to salvage the innocent Shirou from before.

"No, no, don't worry about that,"

Shirou quickly comforted her, seeing Exusiai on the verge of tears.

"Then... that apple pie..."

Exusiai looked expectant.

"Next time, definitely."

Seeing Exusiai pushing her luck, Shirou brushed her off.

Ding─

Shirou's phone made a sound. Only his phone in Penguin Logistics used this older ringtone.

According to him, he was just more used to it.

"Here it comes, here it comes! Isv! My Superman!"

Exusiai took Shirou's phone, finally reaching her happiest moment.

Then, as she looked down, her expression turned a bit strange.

"Why the face like she saw the boss doing ballet? Let me see!"

Seeing Exusiai's bewildered expression, Croissant also leaned in curiously.

"...Combat skills are 'Excellent'?"

Many question marks appeared above Croissant's head. The strongest among them, Exusiai and Texas, were only 'Good', so how did 'Excellent' suddenly pop up?

It was true what they said on TV! The really strong ones were always the cooks or the cleaners!

"???"

Texas and Sora also leaned in.

"Originium Arts adaptability is 'Defect'... So, Shirou, you achieved 'Excellent' results purely through physical prowess?"

Texas looked further down. As one of their main combatants, Texas naturally understood the weight of Shirou's 'Excellent' rating.

"No, doesn't Shirou have Originium Arts? Why is it a 'Defect'?"

Sora remembered how Shirou had made the tissue paper stiff last time. That should have been a type of Originium Arts, but the 'Defect' listed there confused Sora.

"It's a long story... Anyway, it seems I can't activate Originium Arts."

Shirou replied from the side. He had tried using magic to activate it later, but it seemed completely useless.

The stave in his hand was just a simple stick. It was the same when Isv brought other types of Originium weapons later.

"Exusiai, don't just stand there, scroll down,"

Croissant urged, lifting Exusiai's stunned jaw back into place.

"Let me see... Job adaptability is Vanguard, Sniper, and Caster? We have a Caster? We have a Caster!"

Exusiai cheered when she saw Caster.

"And this evaluation..."

Compared to the job adaptability, Texas paid attention to Isv's evaluation of Shirou.

Evaluation: Shirou's abilities are less like Originium Arts and more like some unknown technique. For now, we will refer to it as "Ability."

Shirou's possessed ability can be used for both close-quarters combat and long-range attacks, and his combat awareness is extremely high. In this simulated test, he annihilated all test machines, including the added drones, with almost no damage taken.

Furthermore, Shirou's ability is very special, but because of this, Shirou seems unable to trigger the stave and other Originium products. However, I believe Shirou's own ability is sufficient to compensate for this shortcoming.

All subsequent information has been hidden. Please contact Penguin Logistics if needed.

52 I Have a Big Business to Attend To (Revised)

When they saw the "Please contact Penguin Logistics" at the end, the few of them almost smashed their phones.

Fortunately, Shirou, who was standing nearby, quickly stopped them, and his phone managed to survive for more than a month.

"There's no need to throw your phone... phones are very expensive."

Shirou Emiya carefully put his phone away and lectured the group.

"Sorry, sorry, I got carried away," Sora said. The others also sincerely apologized to Shirou.

"After all, it's really infuriating when a story suddenly cuts off," said Croissant, who had almost turned the phone into a flat disc with her fist.

"It's like opening a Pocky box only to find they're all broken," said Texas, who had almost split the phone in two with her sword.

"It's like finding an apple pie with no apples inside, just apple sauce," said Exusiai, who had almost put a hole in the phone with her gun.

"Croissant and Texas's are somewhat understandable, but Exusiai, what you said sounds more like you encountering something that personally annoys you, doesn't it?" Shirou said, delivering a chop to Exusiai's head.

"Ugh, Shirou, are you picking on me?!" Exusiai complained, clutching her head. She felt like Shirou always targeted her and Croissant, especially her.

"Before you think I'm picking on you, shouldn't you reflect on yourself first?" Shirou placed his fists on either side of Exusiai's head and applied slight pressure.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, it's my fault! My head is getting crushed, let go, ahhhh!" Exusiai surrendered immediately, feeling the pressure on both sides of her head.

"You won't die if you don't court death. Sister Neng, why don't you understand?"
