"Damn! Uncle Hai!"

Shinji, sitting in the front row, stood up in anger and turned to Heracles, complaining, "How many times have I told you, don't block the Projection!"

"■??"

Uncle Hai, who had inadvertently blocked the projector while walking through the aisle, innocently took a bite of the beef in his hand.

Chapter 198 Illya: I'm the older sister

In a normal screening room, even if Uncle Hai were very tall, he couldn't possibly block the projection lights.

Unfortunately, this was just a temporary screening room for the film crew, and this guy with such an abnormally large physique wasn't taken into account when the equipment was installed.

"Uncle Hai, how many times have I told you?" Shinji rubbed his head helplessly, "Don't walk from the back, you'll block the projection."

"...?"

Uncle Hai seemed not to have realized what was happening; he seemed puzzled as to why everyone was staring at him.

"Hey, Muscle Tumbler toy! Get out of my way right now!"

Gilgamesh complained impatiently.

He knew very well that the camera would switch to Kirei Kotomine fighting Hassan the moment Berserker made his move.

"Damn it, this is the most exciting moment! I still want to see that Kirei guy make his appearance!"

Although Gilgamesh and Maronpo in this world don't have a master-servant relationship, their relationship is still acceptable.

Perhaps it was a lingering effect from playing Fate/Zero, Gilgamesh always felt that the Father Mapi Kotomine was destined for greatness.

"Hey! Muscle Tumbler, didn't you hear me tell you to get out of the way?!"

Gilgamesh had been drinking, didn't have much patience. He took out the Chains of Heaven and prepared to tie Uncle Hai to the other side.

At that moment, Uncle Hai made a move.

Although Uncle Hai is simple-minded, he still keeps Master's (Shinji's ) warning firmly in mind.

"Listen, Uncle Hai. Unless you're filming, you absolutely cannot lay a hand on other Servants. Of course, if they try to hit you, that's a different story."

"■■■.(You're going to attack me? Then I'll fight back.)"

Compared to Gilgamesh was already somewhat tipsy from drinking, Uncle Hai reacted much faster.

Before Gilgamesh's thrown chains could even touch him, that fan-like hand slapped up.

Snap!

Normally, being slapped might cause you to stagger, but it rarely results in a knockout.

But with Uncle Hai's size, he sent Gilgamesh flying with just one slap.

Whether it was a coincidence or intentional on Uncle Hai, because of the movement of his body, the image appeared on the Projection screen at the exact same moment Gilgamesh was slapped.

Because of the accident caused by Uncle Hai, the scene on the screen just now shows Kirei Kotomine successfully seducing the Cursed Arm to use his Noble Phantasm, but the priest, taking advantage of not having a heart, pins Hassan to a tree instead.

On the screen, the priest in black robes fluttered as he shot up to the treetops like a cannonball, his target the old man of insects above.

Meanwhile, off-screen, Uncle Hai also rushed towards the Gilgamesh he had knocked away.

Almost simultaneously, the priest on screen and the hero off screen both grabbed their opponent's head.

"You bastard!! Kirei, you--!"

"You bastard!! You Muscle Tumbler--!"

"Shut up, you'll bite your tongue."

"■■.(Master said that once you make a move, you must render the opponent completely incapable of resistance.)"

Showing absolutely no mercy.

The priest slammed the old Magecraft's body to the ground, shattering all his bones, and then slammed his head against the wall.

Magecraft (Physical)!

Uncle Hai grabbed the golden King's body and slammed it to the ground, rendering him unable to move. Then, he grabbed the king's head and slammed it against the wall.

Hangover cure (physical)!

Next, Kirei Kotomine dragged the body of the Grandpa Bug across the entire wall, polishing it little by little, thus physically expelling the demon.

Meanwhile, off-screen, Uncle Hai dragged Gilgamesh's body out of the projection room, presumably to throw this "rag" into the non-combustible trash.

"What a bizarre synchronization rate."

Shinji's lips twitched as he muttered a sarcastic remark.

"Um... I hope Mr. Gilgamesh will be alright?"

The little Akiha, Qiuye, sat trembling in the chair, not understanding why everyone around her was so calm.

Shouldn't an ambulance and police be called immediately for a fight of this magnitude?!

"It's alright, you'll be fine in about an hour. Their Servant recovery abilities are much better than you think," Shirou reassured him. "That's strange, didn't you notice that when you were filming before?"

What should we pay attention to?

"Every time you stab Miss Rider, doesn't she always get away with it immediately?"

"Pierced... pierced??!! Did I really do that with a gun?"

"Of course. In fact, I even adjusted my physical strength to ensure you could pierce my body every time."

Rider adjusted his glasses and said gently yet eerily, "Losing so much blood every time must hurt a lot."

"That's your blood, Medusa, and not fake blood?!"

"Of course, otherwise why would it disappear after a while? It's made of ether."

"... I... Sarilang... I... Sarilang..."

Thump.

Little Akiha fainted again, but this time it wasn't because she was shy, but because she was scared of herself.

"Is this okay?"

Shirou's face showed worry, and he turned to Shinji for a question.

"Fine."

Shinji said nonchalantly, "They're just kids, they'll get used to it after a few scares."

"So you're always finding new ways to mess with your sister, right?"

Shirou suddenly felt a little regretful that Sakura wasn't there today; otherwise, he would definitely have witnessed a fantastic Mortal Kombat match.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

"Kirei, you're just someone born with a defect!"

"You're hopelessly out of touch with the world, destined to always be just an observer! Hahahaha..."

The laughter coming from the television gradually subsided.

After being dragged across half a wall by Kirei Kotomine, Matou Zouken finally had his physical body completely worn away.

"Tsk tsk, that's a really cruel way to die."

Shibamatsu grinned and complained.

"Is that Old Worm dead?"

Fujita remarked that, in his eyes, the sooner this old guy who commanded the skull-masked Heroic Spirit he feared most left the stage, the better.

Azu reminded him, "You should call him Mr. Matou Zouken or Grandpa. He's much older than you; he's your elder."

"You mean this 500-year-old monster?"

"Of course it's the Matou Zouken." Azu gave him a strange look. "No one can't even tell the difference between reality and fiction, right?"

Fujita wanted to argue that Azu was the expert in this area, but considering his boss's style of preferring action to words, he chose to remain silent.

"That Old Worm must be dead."

Another Magecraft speculated, "The Kirei Kotomine uttered while dragging his body were Baptismal Chant. It's the most powerful anti-spirit Magecraft in the church's Magecraft system."

"You actually know about this kind of thing?"

The children around them found it very novel; they had rarely heard of church Magecraft.

"My family has a partnership with the church, so I know."

"That would be for the best; those bugs are absolutely disgusting."

Afraid of being overheard by Azu, Fujita spoke very softly.

However, no one would notice his muttering, because they had already entered the most intense fight scene of the episode.

"Illya!"

With a roar from Shirou Emiya, he was once again sent flying more than ten meters away.

The Projection knight's sword was broken once again.

"No... this kind of weapon is simply not enough..."

The difference in weapon design made Shirou Emiya realize that ordinary weapons were simply no match for this monster.

So--

"Synchro - Begin!"

A giant sword identical to the one wielded by the giant appeared in Shirou Emiya's hands, and the two identical giant swords clashed together.

Shirou Emiya caught the giant's axe for the first time.

Click.

However, before he could even rejoice, the axe and sword he created using the Projection cracked.

"■■■----!!"

Berserker's attacks were like waves; after Shirou Emiya barely managed to block the first strike, he immediately launched a second.

The Projection illusion shattered instantly, Shirou Emiya fell to the ground like trash.

Shirou Emiya's defeat this time was not only due to Berserker's overwhelming strength, but also to the impact of his left arm.

Although the arm from Archer gave him strength, it was also constantly eroding his mind and soul.

Especially after using the Best Actress, Shirou Emiya felt an extremely uncomfortable rejection reaction between his soul and body.

"Hmm..."

"Shirou!"

Illya ran over, anxiously checking on Shirou Emiya's condition.

"That's enough, Shirou. You know very well what will happen if you continue using Shirou's techniques."

Illya cried, "That's enough, Shirou, you run away alone."

Shirou Emiya did not back down; he stood up again.

"Ugh... really, at a time like this, don't act all cute, Illya."

"Huh!? What are you saying, Shirou! I said that's enough! There's still time, you can run away by yourself!"

"Quiet! How could I do that? Wouldn't that mean I came all this way for nothing!"

Shirou Emiya held Illya tightly in his arms.

Why--

Illya's eyes were full of confusion.

Shirou Emiya answered firmly, "Of course there's a reason! I decided to protect Illya myself! Listen carefully, as an older brother, you must protect your little sister!"

"What?! Idiot, I'm not Shirou's sister!"

Illya immediately retorted.

Shirou Emiya laughed, "Fool. Once you've called me 'brother' even once, you're my brother! Even without blood ties, Illya is still my sister!"
