Chapter 762
At that time, the entire Mirror World will collapse.
"I won't let you succeed," Shirou glared at the Black Queen.
He stretched his right hand forward as before and whispered his final words.
"----" Unlimited Blade Works."

Volume 10: 459 Using the mistresses' weapons to beat the wife to the point of breaking her defenses and turning red.
"----" Unlimited Blade Works."
The moment Shirou finished chanting, the entire space of the Mirror World was replaced.
From an abandoned building shrouded in darkness, it has transformed into an endless wilderness filled with swords and spears.
The sky was tinged with the colors of dusk, and between the clouds, a giant gear turned silently.
Sapphire was the first to react.
"This... this is!? Could it be Inherent Barrier!? The ultimate Grand Magic that replaces space with Inner World!"
A red-haired boy stands in the center of the wilderness, confronting the black-clad Queen.
Shirou grabbed the sword beside him and pointed it at Berserker.
"Come on, as you can see, your next challenge is the Infinite Sword... No matter how many clones you have left, bring it on!"
Berserker's aura remained unchanged as he swung his giant halberd.
Shirou leaped high into the air almost simultaneously, dodging the incoming attack, and charged towards her.
Berserker did not adapt well to Shirou's further improved physical abilities and was thus outmaneuvered.
Shirou deflected the Black Queen's block with a single sword strike, completely disrupting her stance. He then swung his sword a second time to finish her off, but she activated "Space Transfer."
Shirou had anticipated this outcome and summoned dozens of swords from afar without hesitation.
As a result, before the Berserker could even get her footing after the space jump, more than a dozen swords were shot at her.
The Black Queen also summoned more than a dozen azure stakes from her side, which flew out and deflected all of Shirou's swords.
"Bring it on!"
Shirou knows what his strengths are.
Infinite Sword?
But that's not all.
He summoned more swords and fired them all at Berserker.
"!!"
Berserker summoned the stakes again, but this time, the collision occurred not in the very center, but closer to her side.
Shirou can launch his sword faster than Berserker can launch his stake.
Even the highest-ranking Divine Era Magus couldn't cast spells faster than Shirou within "Unlimited Blade Works."
Seeing Shirou's sword getting closer and closer, Berserker used "Space Transfer" a second time.
"Ha... Even Her Majesty the Queen was just as pathetic when she fled!"
Shirou scoffed and started running.
As he charged toward Berserker, he caught a glimpse of a sword out of the corner of his eye.
As if sensing some kind of destiny, Shirou pulled the giant sword from the ground.
Shared experiences and feelings.
Accumulated over the years, it reappears.
Shirou reads the memories engraved on that sword, reproduces them, and Projection onto his own body.
Berserker, now airborne, glared at Shirou, who nonchalantly swung down his greatsword, a sharp, tearing pain shooting through his arm.
"...!!"
Shirou noticed that Berserker was showing signs of wavering for the first time; she seemed to recognize the sword.
Shirou maintained his sword-wielding stance, a fearless smile playing on his lips as he looked at his enemy.
The greatsword he held in his right hand spewed forth jet-black flames.
Its terrifying shape resembled the horns and teeth of a monster that had been tearing apart enemy lines.
"Haa!"
Shirou swung his sword forcefully, easily deflecting the Queen's Halberd, whose power had been amplified hundreds of times by Magecraft.
How does it feel to be suppressed by magic you're familiar with?
Shirou didn't know if she still felt humiliated, but he sensed the Black Queen's oppressive aura had increased.
Berserker, as if trying to deny the existence of the sword, swung his giant halberd with all his might.
Shirou faced her slash head-on.
"... Ugh!"
Since it wasn't a complete recreation, it was still somewhat at a disadvantage in a contest of strength.
However, after Shirou drew the sword, he realized that its power was far more than that.
Shirou focused intently, trying to recreate and Projection a portion of the user's power to counter the Black Queen's unskilled attacks.
In the next round, he successfully parried the Black Queen's attack.
However, the power of the user who recreated this sword caused the boy's body to begin groaning.
Therefore, Shirou's movements began to deviate.
Berserker no longer wields only his greatsword, but also unleashes Magecraft capable of being deadly.
"Shirou, you mustn't forget that the enemy is just an avatar! No matter how evenly matched we are, if this continues..."
Shirou was well aware of this as well.
His current predicament is merely a "complete clone of performance"; the real Berserker hasn't even shown up yet.
Even if we manage to wear this guy down, there will be another clone.
If this continues, Shirou will eventually be exhausted and lose.
Just as he was thinking this, the jet-black greatsword in his hand roared like a wild beast.
"------!!"
Shirou looked at it in surprise. "Would you... completely accept me?"
As if in response, the flames coiling around the blade intensified.
"Okay... let's do it one more time!"
Shirou tried again to analyze the greatsword in his hand.
His bones were creaking and his Magic Circuits were almost burned out.
He knew he was acting recklessly, but he decided to trust the sword he had chosen.
Shirou ran while parrying the Black Queen's attacks.
Berserker prefers to attack enemies directly with a giant halberd whose power is amplified by magic, but this has a problem—the force of the impact also affects her.
When Shirou suddenly deflected her attack, the Black Queen's body swayed, revealing an opening for the first time.
Right now.
" --Projection, begin."
Shirou focused his mind on the Projection in his right hand, mentally outlining the complete move.
" --Projection, loading."
Just as Shirou finished preparing, the enemy also regained their mobility and was about to unleash a space Magecraft.
"Don't run away!"
Several chains of burning Black Flame wrapped around Berserker's neck and limbs from all sides.
The other end of the chains was firmly held in Shirou's left hand; these chains were also an ability attached to the sword.
"... Oh, the gloomy lake."
The Black Queen's magical response began to increase dramatically.
Knowing she could no longer escape, she prepared to unleash a massive Magecraft to burn the surrounding area to the ground.
The premonition of death overwhelmed Shirou, but he remained remarkably calm.
"--The entire Projection is complete."
"Shirou!"
Amidst the cry of the Sapphire, Shirou unleashed his fully replicated Noble Phantasm—
"Slaughter everything! Blackdog Galatine, the Horn That Devours Shemesh!!!"
The Black Queen unleashed a devastating Grand Magic centered on herself, but Shirou's attack was far faster and stronger.
The liberated, Black Holy Sword continued to expand, expand, expand, growing from its original normal size to tens of meters in length.
The "Fae Sword Caladbolg," engraved with Shemesh pattern, is imbued with the magic of the sun and unleashes a massive blow powerful enough to crush a city.
The Black Queen's body, along with her Magecraft, was blown away and vanished without resistance in the blazing fire.
"Wow, that's amazing... Berserker's Spirit Origin was completely vaporized."
Shirou, clutching his knees, was panting heavily, Sapphire let out a surprised sound.
Another clone was taken down.
Including the one that was killed by the chaotic sword attacks earlier, this is the second clone.
Shirou's rest did not last long.
"Here we go again! A new clone!"
"... I know."
Berserker's second clone was destroyed, but a third clone quickly appeared.
"Haa..."
Shirou gripped the "Fae Sword Caladbolg" again, but found that something was wrong—during the release just now, the greatsword was covered in seals.
Shirou chuckled, "Another curse or something? Looks like you're quite wary of this sword."
When Berserker's clone was killed, it sealed the "Fae Sword Caladbolg" using some kind of Black Magic.
But it doesn't matter, because Shirou now possesses an infinite number of swords.
He drew another sword that was near him.
The newly awakened clone doesn't seem to have fully adapted to its Spirit Origin yet, and its reaction is a beat slower.
Shirou seized the opportunity and unleashed his fastest sword strike.
"..." The Aegis - Light!"
A flash faster than the speed of light swept across the Black Queen's body.
She didn't even realize she had been killed, and was still preparing to attack Shirou, before being reduced to fragments in the process.
"... The third one."
Shirou adjusted his breathing and planted the Aegis back into the ground.
The third clone also sent a farewell gift when it was killed, sealing the sword away.
"Shirou, we can't continue like this..."
The successive releases of Noble Phantasm gradually disrupted the Magic Circuits within Shirou's body.
