Making Delta of Fate at the Start, the Group Chat Friends Went Wild

"Snort."

Kazuma Satou swept his bangs back:

"I've always been handsome."

"Why haven't we reached the final settlement stage yet?"

Iori Kitahara asked, then looked at Hachiman Hikigaya, who was staring blankly at the statue of Shirou Emiya:

"Hasn't he come out yet?"

"No..."

Hachiman Hikigaya stared at the panel in front of him, saying incredulously:

"What I'm showing here is that he's not out yet."

Kazuma Satou was slightly taken aback:

"He's not out of the game yet, shouldn't he die before me?"

Kohei Imamura watched the Livestream Room.

Due to the chain reaction of the soul within the Shirou Emiya's body has been burned to almost nothing but bones.

He said, somewhat incredulously:

"This... he's still alive?"

Mahiro Oyama his chin on his hand to prevent it from falling to the ground.

"We're using ordinary-level bodies, right?"

Ryuguuin Seiya stared at the image on the screen, where a section of golden bone was protruding from the charred body of Shirou Emiya:

"Is this his characteristic?"

Back when I first played it.

When he teamed up with Shirou Emiya, he discovered that Shirou was incredibly "durable".

Even when targeted by [Archer], they just won't die.

I initially thought the other party was showing mercy, but it turns out he's just... clinging to life.

"Holy crap, holy crap, he stood up?"

"The skeleton stood up?"

"Really?!"

Kazuma Satou and the others huddled together, watching Shirou Emiya's actions on the screen, only two words lingering on their lips.

Inside the Black Holy Grail, everything changed drastically; it was as if they had entered a pale-colored sea of flowers.

There was still black mud beneath our feet, and countless flowers were born from the Black Mud.

Good and evil are two extremes, Ryougi Shiki is born.

A long-haired woman in a kimono appeared there, as if she had always been there, even before the birth of humankind.

He began:

"Do you have any wishes?"

Shirou Emiya's soul no longer had a definite form, only a blurry golden shadow. He spoke:

"I want to resurrect them, in the form of souls."

"Which ones?"

"Resurrect the souls of those who died from that arrow, and the monks of Ryuudou Temple."

Shirou Emiya said as Kazuma Satou had told him:

"If possible, it would be enough to restore the body of the boy outside who looks like me to its original state, and to repair the body of that white-haired girl."

Don't be too greedy.

The Holy Grail's purified magic.

That's already the limit.

The woman in the kimono opposite him looked at him as if she could see into his heart, and she said with a faint smile.

No, things are different now.

The Holy Grail now is not the same as the one before.

Even if you wanted to resurrect everyone, you still had a chance.

"But what will be the price?"

Shirou Emiya asked himself, and answered himself:

"Anyway, it will definitely be a price I can't afford right now."

In order to find a way to save these 30,000 people.

He and Kazuma spent fifteen years preparing for the Holy Grail.

If it were him from the very beginning, he would have wavered.

But now Shirou Emiya has become a little more "realistic".

The 15 years he spent planning with Kazuma Satou taught him that one must take things one step at a time, and that ideals must be realized step by step.

Justice is about saving people one by one; trying to save everyone from the start is just an unrealistic fantasy.

Shirou Emiya spoke calmly and firmly, his voice seeming to transcend time:

"I will not abandon anyone who suffers. One day I will become a true champion of justice, but not now."

"I will save those who live in the present, and I will not abandon those who live in the future or the past either. Justice should not abandon anyone. Justice that abandons any victim is not justice."

"Interesting."

The woman in the kimono said:

"You are a very special human being, and I have met someone who is not the same type as you, but is equally special."

"In that case, I have granted your wish."

As soon as he finished speaking, the space vanished.

Countless white points of light condensed in the Holy Grail.

There are a total of 39,987.

The rim of the Holy Grail is covered with a thin film, and the inside is filled with a faint white mist, protecting its spirit from dissipating.

This was a gift from the woman in the kimono.

"It really worked."

Rin Tohsaka turned around and found that Shirou Emiya and Illya were both gone.

"Their souls are among them; this is my brother's wish."

Shirou Emiya sat up and spoke to Rin Tohsaka, the black burn marks on his body peeling away to reveal golden saintly bones:

"You used my Kazuma's remains to make a deal with the Magecraft, along with these props."

Shirou Emiya stood up and came to Kazuma's shattered body. His bones were pure black, but his marrow inside was golden.

He emptied out all the contents of the "Rivers and Mountains Map" for both of them, and even handed the "Rivers and Mountains Map" itself directly to Rin Tohsaka.

"Find Magecraft to prepare their bodies, and the rest is yours. You can even use the Noble Phantasm and Craft Essence for self-defense..."

"Anyway, please, Tohsaka."

Rin Tohsaka wiped her eyes:

"I would have done it even without you saying so."

"Um."

Shirou Emiya sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes slightly closed, as if Saint Dismantling.

He radiated golden light, and another large door opened for him.

Evacuation failed...

[Evacuation successful!?]

Current evacuation method:

The Saint Has Passed Away

Operator, you are heading to [Heaven]!

"?"

Shirou Emiya typed a question mark.

Even with his current near-saintly temperament, it stirred up a ripple.

Was it intercepted?

My Dao Tian Palace is such a huge place.

His soul gradually rose, ascending the white steps.

Countless angels lined both sides of the staircase, welcoming his arrival.

An archangel holding a holy sword was guiding him at the entrance.

"Hello, newly appointed Saint..."

Just then, everything slowed down.

A shepherd boy strolled over, carrying a lantern. He Yuyu placed Shirou Emiya's soul, along with his phone, into the lantern's wick, then turned and left.

The other angels were furious.

It's been so long since a sage has appeared.

They were actually kidnapped right in front of them.

Who is this guy? He's robbing people right at the gates of heaven!

Trial him!

They were about to charge forward when they realized that the other side had this idea, and they were completely unable to move or even take out their weapons.

He only regained his ability to move after the shepherd boy disappeared.

"What happens?"

"I have disgraced the Lord."

"Lord, could that overwhelming sense of oppression be the legendary Satan?!"

[Gabriel] paused, then angrily rebuked the angel for speaking nonsense:

"What are you talking about? That is [the Lord]!"

"Ah?"

The angel was completely stunned.

On the other side...

Inside the garden of the Dao Tian Palace.

Lin Zhen took Shirou Emiya's soul from the shepherd boy's hands, temporarily sealing away his decades of experiences contained in the cup.

"Don't you want the Holy Spirit?"

The boy said:

"This is the soul of a saint that even the gods dream of. If you do this, you might let others reap the benefits."

Lin Zhen smiled:

"I don't need to. I don't get anything from the players. I've already gained enough from their experiences."

He paused, his tone calm yet domineering:
