Waver: Me? I Have a Stomachache!

"Hmph~"

Archer's red coat billowed as he kicked Shirou away.

The red-haired boy's back fell onto the rubble, leaving a bright red stain.

"Ahem!"

Shirou coughed painfully; after the battle, his body, both externally and internally, was on the verge of death.

He's like a beat-up old car that's run out of fuel but is forcing itself to go 200 mph with the help of lubricant; it wouldn't be surprising if it stopped at any time.

"That's enough, Shirou Emiya."

Archer's voice echoed in the empty, ruined hall.

"This foolishness of showing up here despite knowing you're no match. A counterfeit, imprisoned by pointless ideals your whole life, never possessing your own thoughts. Is this how you understand your true self?!"

Shirou didn't answer, but his eyes said it all.

However, this only made Archer feel even more disgusted.

"Your very idea of wanting to save others is flawed! As a human being, you have a serious malfunction!"

"Shirou Emiya, from the very beginning, you were a counterfeit that should never have existed."

With each sentence Archer spoke, he took a step forward.

He wasn't in a hurry to get rid of Shirou Emiya; rather than physically eliminating him, he preferred to destroy his past self mentally.

"Projection complete..."

Archer's answer came from two swords, one black and one white.

Gan Jiang and Mo Ye are famous swords attributed to ancient swordsmiths.

"Aaaaaaahh...

Shirou roared and charged forward, unleashing his attack at Archer.

Until all his remaining magic and physical strength were burned away, Shirou Emiya risked everything without reservation!

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

"This guy is really annoying."

Aoko said unhappily, her favorability towards Red A had now almost reached zero.

The reason she hasn't completely fallen for it yet is simply because UBW is currently her favorite TV series.

In Aoko's opinion, Red A was simply bullying people. Shirou Emiya was already having trouble breathing, but Red A didn't even break a sweat.

Looking at that cool face that could still deliver calm lines, Aoko only felt angry.

Actually, it wasn't just Aoko; because Shinji deliberately put two people in different states in the same shot to increase the contrast, many viewers began to sympathize with Shirou Emiya.

Shirou's sister, Illya, cried while watching it.

"Brother, you're so pitiful," Illya complained, tears welling in her eyes. "Why don't you cherish yourself more?"

"I want to too."

Shirou scratched his nose with his finger and replied helplessly, "I was exhausted when we were filming this scene, but that guy (Archer) wouldn't let me off the hook, saying that filming in this state would increase the realism."

"Hey?? Brother, is filming this hard?"

Illya was utterly astonished, and even her tears were held back in shock.

"Other actors can rest whenever they want while filming," Illya, not quite understanding why Shirou had to work so hard.

"Of course, who would dare not let our Illya rest?" Shirou affectionately patted his sister's head.

Putting aside laws protecting minors and regulations protecting underage actors, if Shinji dared to make any rash moves against Illya, Shirou would probably have his father holding a submachine gun in each hand to Shinji's head.

In fact, Shinji also bears some responsibility for Shinji approving Red A's Sparta -style filming method.

However, because the target of Red A was so sarcastic, Shirou forgot about Shinji.

Not only Shirou, but Heroic Spirit forgot about their Masters and blamed everything on Red A.

"I said, kid."

Iskandar crossed his arms and joked, "I didn't realize it on set, but now it seems you've really crossed the line."

"Indeed."

Enkidu stroked his chin and said, "Shirou's breathing sounds are real. I think you should be gentler."

"Let me explain."

Cú Chulainn raised his hand, indicating that he would try to defend Archer's position.

"It wasn't just during this scene; every time this guy had a scene with that kid (Shirou), he mainly tortured him. It was either verbal mockery or physical humiliation. So, this dark-skinned guy exhausting the young man was just part of his routine."

"Cú Chulainn, are you deliberately trying to provoke me?"

Red A's eyes turned dangerous.

"Want to fight?" Cú Chulainn retorted, not to be outdone. "I'll have to wait until I finish watching TV first."

"Don't worry, I'll let you finish reading it."

Red A sneered.

At this point, Shirou Emiya's battle with the Heroic Spirit Emiya was drawing to a close.

"Absolutely not a mistake! My ideals are absolutely not wrong!"

Shirou Emiya shouted those words with all his might.

Even if Shirou Emiya is a fake, this person must be real.

I hope everyone can be happy.

This feeling is absolutely genuine, so Shirou Emiya will never back down.

With a determination akin to cough up blood, he thrust his sword forward, striking Archer squarely in the chest.

Click.

The sound of a knife piercing through the chest.

Shirou Emiya pierced Archer's chest.

Thump!

The sound of a heavy object piercing through a television set.

Red A pierced the television set with the Projection of Gáe Bolg.

"Hey! Archer!!! Look what you've done!! This is the most exciting part!!"

Cú Chulainn clutched his head and let out a scream.

"Archer, why did you destroy the TV?! Don't you want us to see you get humiliated?"

Enkidu was also puzzled by Red A's actions.

Gilgamesh's eyes flashed with a fierce light. "Hey, fake! How are you going to compensate me?! I've been waiting for this episode for so long!"

It's worth noting that at the end of this episode, Gilgamesh places Illya's heart into Shinji's body.

Gilgamesh has a lot of opinions about Shinji Matou, has been waiting for a long time to see Shinji get his comeuppance.

After waiting so long, this is the result?!

How could he possibly accept this?

However, facing the enraged Heroic Spirit, Red A calmly took out his phone.

The phone screen displays an email with a photo and a message.

The photo shows the damaged television set in the company, and the message reads, "[Shinji, Cú Chulainn, dissatisfied with his limited screen time, smashed the television set with his gun.]"

"Archer!! Aren't you the one who broke the TV?!"

Faced with Cú Chulainn's roar, Red A shrugged and snorted dismissively.

"Hmph, it was Gáe Bolg who broke the TV. Who do you think is the most suspicious?"

Serves you right for mocking me like that.

Cú Chulainn's volatile temper secretly pleased Red A.

In fact, Red A had already decided to destroy the television before airing his most embarrassing (in his own eyes) storyline.

It wouldn't matter if others saw it, but these heroic Heroic Spirit in front of me absolutely cannot see it.

From Red A's perspective, this arrogant guy was far too embarrassed by what was to come. If these guys saw it, who knows how long they would laugh at him for it.

Of course, the Heroic Spirit will definitely be rewatched later, but they won't be gathered together like they are now.

As a result, their memory of the relevant scenes will not be as vivid.

Red A was already prepared to be scolded by Shinji, but Cú Chulainn actually mocked him face-to-face, so he was definitely going to cause trouble.

Shinji would believe it or not is one thing; whether he would actually cause trouble is another.

However, since everyone present wanted to continue watching Heroic Spirit, Red A's shot provoked widespread anger.

"Hey, you fake. Either go and Projection a TV for me right now, or hurry up and get me a proper TV!"

"How could I possibly Projection a television?"

"Didn't you do quite well when you Projection the latest fishing rod to compete with the puppy in fishing?" Gilgamesh clearly didn't believe him. "Either Projection, or go buy a TV!"

"I won't go. Besides, even if I went to buy a TV now, it would be too late, wouldn't it?"

"That fake, you shall die!"

Gilgamesh angrily pulled a longsword from his treasury.

Seeing this, Enkidu quickly reminded him, "Gil, you can't use your Noble Phantasm! You can't destroy the room!"

"Tsk."

An unhappy Gilgamesh had no choice but to raise his fist and charge forward.

The battle in the TV series has ended, but the battle outside the TV series has just begun.

Gilgamesh was the first to act, followed by Cú Chulainn, then Enkidu and Iskandar, and finally even Diarmuid, the most obedient of the Heroic Spirit, joined in.

Yan Qing was the only one who didn't join this "Fourth + Fifth Holy Grail War," but instead quietly took photos and secretly sent emails.

[Master, these guys are drunk and causing trouble; they even smashed the TV. -- Yan Qing]

[PS: Gilgamesh broke the television with his Gáe Bolg, and Archer falsely accused Cú Chulainn of doing it.]

As a professional at playing traitors, Little Yi Ge declares that he's the real expert at stirring up trouble.

Chapter 122 Waver: Me? My stomach hurts!

London, Clock Tower, El-Melloi Classroom.

It was lunch break, and the students in the classroom were gathered together watching the latest episode of UBW, which had just aired on Britain television the day before.

Using classroom equipment to watch TV series would have been absolutely impossible for Waver, given his rigorous academic approach.

But Waver was facing Shinji, who was a hundred times more Shinji than him. After Second Master used the excuse of "showing it as a promotional video to inspire students to strive for the prosperity of the Modern Magecraft Department," Waver reluctantly agreed to the request.

Of course, this is only the surface reason; the deeper reason is the fear that Tohsaka Rin will continue to wreak havoc on the dormitory.

Shinji will reimburse the cost of these damaged items, but who doesn't prefer to avoid trouble?

However, the only time to broadcast related films and television dramas was during the lunch break each day; this was Waver's last insistence.

The practice of showing films and television programs in the classroom was met with overwhelming approval from the students.

Even the most self-disciplined students can't deny the tedium of studying; why not take a break and relax at lunchtime?

So every noon, Waver's students, whether they had classes or not, would gather in El-Melloi Classroom.

Film appreciation sessions even became a regular activity for Waver's students.

"I won, Archer."

On the Projection screen, Shirou Emiya, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, stared intently as the Red Knight made his declaration.
