The group gathered together.

Rin surveyed everyone present and said, "Kaikiri Leshith, I'll ask you to escort Kallian and Shirou to the Church later. Touko, tonight, I need you to wake up Ryougi Shiki at the hospital, help her become a Servant, and then bring her to the Ogawa Apartments. Aoko, Black Wing Duke will be your responsibility. Arisu and Kirei will handle the Dead Apostles. Fujino and I will deal with the Magus, and Ryougi Shiki can handle Souren Araya."

Everyone nodded in agreement with Rin's arrangements and returned to their respective homes to prepare for the night's battle.

Kaikiri Leshith, along with Kallian and Shirou, set off on the road to the Church in Kanfushi City.

Night fell!

Rin, Arisu, Fujino, Aoko, and Kirei Kotomine arrived near the Ogawa Apartments.

Rin looked up at the newly completed Ogawa Apartments, took a deep breath, and the Flame Sword, 'Gift of Pain to the Giants,' flew from her hand, striking the main gate of the Ogawa Apartments and kicking off the night's battle.

In response to Rin's attack, the Dead Apostles brought by Black Wing Duke surged out of the apartments, attempting to block Rin and the others.

Facing the stream of Dead Apostles, Rin punched one away and said to Arisu and Kirei Kotomine, "Arisu, Kirei, I'm counting on you."

With that, Rin's legs flashed with magic as she activated reinforcement magecraft and charged into the Ogawa Apartments.

Aoko watched Rin charge into the Ogawa Apartments and shouted, firing several magic bullets to clear a path for Rin, then followed her and Fujino into the building.

Arisu quietly watched Rin and the others enter the Ogawa Apartments and began to showcase her power as a Fairy Tale Magecraft user.

Her eyes flashed red, and she used her Mystic Eyes to restrain the Dead Apostles attacking her. Then, she used magic bullets to shatter a nearby fountain, and as the fountain broke, the water formed a stream.

'Thames Troll,' one of Arisu's trump cards, the Bridge Giant, appeared. With a colossal body three stories high and a surface made of hard rock, it unleashed the might of Fairy Tale Magecraft upon the Dead Apostles without restraint.

With a boom, the Bridge Giant took a step, easily crushing the Dead Apostles restrained by Arisu's Mystic Eyes into a pulp, then roared at the remaining Dead Apostles!

Seeing the Bridge Giant roaring and charging, the Dead Apostles were shaken by the overwhelming pressure. Some of the more timid ones even turned to flee, but it was futile. Kirei Kotomine, an excellent Executor, would never let them escape. With a casual wave of his right hand, he used a Black Key to sever their heads, then used the Holy Shroud borrowed from the Kanfushi City Church to wrap their heads, preventing regeneration.

Suddenly, a hole was blasted in the outer wall of the Ogawa Apartments, and a Dead Apostle with black wings, resembling a hybrid of a bird and a human, was blasted out of the opening and onto the plaza outside the apartments.

The Dead Apostles, seeing the figure blasted out, rushed forward to help him up.

"Black Wing Duke, you're not getting away!"

From the newly created opening, Aoko appeared, leaning against the wall, her hair now red. (In this story's setting, Aoko's hair turns red when she uses magecraft, which differs from the original work!)

Black Wing Duke casually pushed aside the Dead Apostles beside him, let out a strange cry, and lunged at Aoko.

"Never-Returning!"

As Black Wing Duke's Bounded Field unfolded, he and Aoko vanished from the plaza.

Inside the Ogawa Apartments, Rin glanced at the large hole created by Aoko and Black Wing Duke's battle before diving back into the intense fight.

On the sixty-fourth floor of the Hounou-den, Souren Araya's mental world materialized. The residents, transformed into dolls, endlessly reenacted their deaths at night and rebirth in the morning in a "cycle." Souren Araya's body was also linked to the apartments, allowing him to teleport to other locations within the building and even manipulate the apartment's space, capable of feats approaching magecraft like spatial blockage and spatial transfer.

At this moment, the residents of this building were the subordinates of the Magus previously brought by Arba, transformed into dolls. Under Souren Araya's control, these Magus dolls continuously appeared around Rin and Fujino, attacking them from all directions.

Rin, using gems as a giant shield to defend against the attacks, suddenly sensed danger and threw a ruby in that direction. With a flash of fire, the Witch-King Slayer, wielding a massive cross, blocked the attack for Rin.

The attacker was Arba, who had not only been turned into a doll by Souren Araya but also transformed into a Dead Apostle, making him even more dangerous than his already established Color rank.

Seeing Arba, whose face was contorted and who was constantly roaring "Touko."

Rin shouted to Fujino, "Fujino, can you hold him off for a moment?!"

"Understood, Master! Consciousness-Only Distortion Mage Eye!"

Fujino's eyes began to emit a rainbow glow. Facing Fujino's attack, Arba roared, raising his hands to gather flames, which collided with the distortion Fujino unleashed. Simultaneously, Souren Araya's signature Six Layers of Defense appeared around Arba.

Rin, meanwhile, quickly used the Shorthand Codex to set up a protective sanctuary, took out a gem she had accumulated and stored starlight in, and began to gather starlight.

"Wings of Light Deploy!"

Rain of light erupted from the wings on Rin's back, and most of the doll Magus, who couldn't be transferred by Souren Araya in time, were riddled with holes in the downpour.

Then, Rin floated in mid-air and called out to Fujino, who was still locked in a stalemate with Arba, "Move aside, Fujino!"

Fujino obediently retracted her Mystic Eyes and easily dodged the flames that had previously clashed with her own.

Nearly half of the wings on Rin's back wrapped around her right hand, emitting a golden glow. Then, Rin formed a gun shape with her left hand supporting her right and began to chant.

"Gather, Venus! This is your glory, forge the light of destruction, this is the Spear of Venus!"

Chapter 53, Chapter 52: Rin's Kara no Kyoukai Journey - See You Next Century

Bounded Field - Never-Returning. It was a Death Feather Sky Curtain covering the sky, devouring moonlight and stars alike, an absolute "world of death" devoid of any light. At this moment, Aoko, trapped within it, illuminated this world with her own magical radiance.

The prolonged battle, coupled with Black Wing Duke's occasional sneak attacks, left Aoko feeling somewhat fatigued. As Aoko seized a brief respite between engagements to recover her strength.

Suddenly, in the blink of an eye, Aoko found herself back on the plaza in front of the Ogawa Apartments. Simultaneously, Black Wing Duke, who had dispelled his Bounded Field, instantly turned into a black shadow and rushed into the Ogawa Apartments.

"Don't run!" Forgetting about Arisu, who was currently engaged in a fierce battle with the Dead Apostles on the plaza, and fearing Black Wing Duke would harm Rin, Aoko quickly pursued him.

A moment too late, Aoko had just chased into the Ogawa Apartments when she could only watch helplessly as Black Wing Duke, with Souren Araya's assistance, escaped via spatial transfer.

"Damn it, Rin, I hope you're okay!"

Aoko clenched her fists, her face a mask of self-recrimination and worry. Just as she was about to rush upstairs, Touko's voice suddenly sounded from behind her.

The Black Wing Duke, having just been teleported, had, as Aoko had predicted, been moved to the same floor as Rin and Fujino.

The Black Wing Duke extended a hand to block Rin, who was wielding the Spear of Venus. He casually crushed the Spear of Venus that Rin had fired, ignored Rin and Fujino before him, and turned to face Arba, manipulated by Souren Araya, saying.

"Souren Araya, my subordinate has brought the person you wanted. Reveal yourself."

As the Black Wing Duke spoke, a Dead Apostle from his shadow appeared beside him, carrying Ryougi Shiki. At the same time, Souren Araya arrived via spatial transfer.

Souren Araya looked at Ryougi Shiki, held by the Dead Apostle, his expression still calm.

"Give Ryougi Shiki to me."

The Black Wing Duke beckoned to his subordinate, signaling him to comply with Souren Araya's request, while also reminding Souren Araya.

"Souren Araya, remember our agreement. After you link with the Root, you will help my master return to Earth with all your might! If you break your promise, I don't think I need to remind you of the consequences."

Rin, overhearing the details of the transaction between the Black Wing Duke and Souren Araya, couldn't help but shout at Souren Araya.

"Wait! Souren Araya, do you know the consequences if Crimson Moon returns to Earth!"

The Black Wing Duke frowned, looking at Rin with annoyance, and roared.

"How dare you speak my master's name so casually! Kill her!"

Upon receiving the order, the Black Wing Duke's subordinate leaped up, stepped on the ceiling, and attacked Rin. Meanwhile, Fujino Asagami, who was preparing to support Rin, was blocked by Arba, manipulated by Souren Araya.

Just as Rin and Fujino were in dire straits, Touko met Aoko in the lobby of the Ogawa Apartment, accompanied by Ryougi Shiki, who had been turned into a Servant.

"Aoko, why are you here? Weren't you supposed to be blocking the Black Wing Duke?"

Aoko turned her head in surprise, looking at Touko, who was slowly walking into the Ogawa Apartment with Ryougi Shiki.

"Damn it, I was careless and the Black Wing Duke got away. By the way, Touko, Rin is in danger right now. Do you have a way to help?"

Touko nodded at Aoko, then raised her right hand, and a magic circle appeared.

Before Rin and the others arrived at the Ogawa Apartment, Touko had gone ahead to the hospital and found the sleeping Ryougi Shiki. Touko, always cautious, while using the Winter Saintess's Soul Fragment provided by Rin to help Ryougi Shiki awaken faster, sensed the Dead Apostle sent by the Black Wing Duke to capture Ryougi Shiki.

At that moment, Touko had a flash of inspiration. She took out the Ryougi Shiki doll she had made after her first visit to Ryougi Shiki and swapped it with the sleeping Ryougi Shiki.

Touko hadn't expected that her moment of inspiration would become the key to saving Rin and Fujino.

Souren Araya, who was preparing to teleport away with the 'Ryougi Shiki' upstairs, suddenly grunted, and a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Touko's Ryougi Shiki doll was activated at this critical moment. The magic core in the activated doll's chest instantly operated at full power, and the doll Ryougi Shiki used her reinforced right hand to strike Souren Araya's chest.

As Souren Araya was suddenly attacked by the doll Ryougi Shiki, Arba, manipulated by Souren Araya, also froze in place. Although Fujino lacked combat experience, how could she miss such an obvious opening? Her Mystic Eyes operated at full power, twisting the frozen Arba into a ball of minced meat in an instant.

However, although the immediate crisis was resolved, a greater crisis was about to arrive. The Black Wing Duke, impatient, watched his subordinate fighting Rin. He, who had already been restless, stepped forward and joined the battle as Souren Araya was injured.

Fujino nervously stepped forward to block the Black Wing Duke with all her might, shouting at Rin.

"Run, Master! Let me hold them off!"

Meanwhile, in the lobby of the Ogawa Apartment, Touko, who had established a connection with the Ryougi Shiki doll, discovered the crisis facing Rin and Fujino through the doll's perspective. Without hesitation, she took out the Holy Grail from her briefcase and continuously poured magic into it.

"Shiki, I'm counting on you. Please unleash your Noble Phantasm and attack this apartment. Aoko, get ready too. Once the apartment collapses, stop the Black Wing Duke immediately."

Ryougi Shiki, dressed in a pure white kimono with patterns, nodded slowly, drew the Nine-Character Blade, her pupils emitting a rainbow glow, and murmured.

"Pure Consciousness · Boundary of Nothingness!"

Like a flash of a katana from the other shore, it instantly severed the death lines of the Ogawa Apartment. Souren Araya's sixty-fourth floor of the Consecration Hall was killed, and the Ogawa Apartment was also killed.

The entire apartment seemed to have experienced centuries of time in an instant. Starting from the cut made by Shiki, it turned into powder and began to scatter in the wind.

Souren Araya spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt down weakly. As the apartment was killed, the entire building began to shake. The Black Wing Duke, feeling the apartment shaking, glared fiercely at Rin, turned around, grabbed Souren Araya by the collar, broke the window, and flew out.

Fujino, taking advantage of the Black Wing Duke abandoning his attack to rescue Souren Araya, her Mystic Eyes flashed, and she twisted the legs of the Dead Apostle fighting Rin.

Rin also seized this opportunity, flew to Fujino's side, and carried Fujino out of the collapsing apartment.

The Black Wing Duke, carrying Souren Araya, landed in the plaza. Before he could catch his breath, Aoko had already arrived. Several magic bullets sealed off all possible escape routes for the Black Wing Duke, and a fist burning with green magic power attacked along with the magic bullets.

Rin, struggling, landed beside Touko and Ryougi Shiki in the plaza, carrying Fujino, and looked admiringly at the Black Wing Duke, who had been sent flying dozens of meters by Aoko.

"Aoko's punches are still as powerful as ever! Touko, thank you. You arrived just in time."

Ryougi Shiki also tilted her head and looked at Rin curiously, 'I didn't expect you to be such a kid!'

Rin dispersed her Starlight mode, took out a diamond, cast Jewel Magecraft to recover her sore magic circuits, and said to Souren Araya.

"You lost, Souren Araya."

Souren Araya forced himself to stand up and looked around. All he saw were his Dead Apostles scattering like a collapsing mountain, the Black Wing Duke fighting Aoko not far away, and his trump card now reduced to a pile of dust.

"Rin Tohsaka, is it you who was manipulated by the Counter Force to stop me this time!" After speaking, Souren Araya vomited a mouthful of blood.

"It seems this body has reached its limit, cough cough. There are no spare bodies. Touko, if I meet Rin Tohsaka again, it will probably be next century."

Section 54 Chapter 53: Rin Tohsaka's Kara no Kyoukai Journey - Going Home!

With Souren Araya's fall, the Black Wing Duke also gave up fighting Aoko and disappeared into the night.

Rin looked at the ruins of the dilapidated Ogawa Apartments and could only give Kirei Kotomine an apologetic glance.

Then, remembering the scene in the original work where Ryougi Shiki tried to destroy her own eyes after waking up, she quickly pulled Touko aside and asked her in a low voice.

"Touko, what about Ryougi Shiki? We forcefully awakened her, right? When she finishes digesting her magic and returns to normal, if she..."

Touko turned and looked at Ryougi Shiki, somewhat puzzled why Rin cared so much about Ryougi Shiki, whom she had only met a few times.

"Don't worry, Rin, leave her to me."

Upon hearing Touko's words, Rin nodded in relief.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Touko."

"Leave what to me?"

Ryougi Shiki had silently appeared beside Rin and Touko, looking at Rin with a complex expression.

Rin was startled by Ryougi Shiki and guiltily averted her gaze, not daring to look at her.

Seeing Rin like this, Ryougi Shiki covered her mouth and chuckled.

"I know what you're thinking, and you're right. Just don't let 'Shiki' (Shiki of the Root) see you when she's awake! If 'Shiki' sees you, she'll definitely kill you!"

Rin listened to Ryougi Shiki's words blankly, then bowed to her with a grateful expression.
