Shirou's Grand Heroic Saga

There was no time to observe the enemy's vital points in that instant.

The eyes' reaction was far too slow.

Discard.

Awaken, gained through countless battles, on the throne of heroes, awakened only in moments of life and death—True Eye of the Heart!

Shirou completely perceived Beatrice's vital points and her imminent movement direction. Guided by the Eye of the Heart, he locked onto eight locations.

"God Slayer of Hundred Beasts - Slaying Sword Technique (NinelivesBladeworks)!"

"What?" Beatrice quickly raised Mjolnir to block.

Heracles is the most powerful hero in Greek mythology, slaying countless gods and enduring the Twelve Labors, which honed his fearsome technique—God Slayer of Hundred Beasts!

So what if she's the Thunder God?

Beatrice, blocking with the massive Mjolnir in front of her, had a contorted face. Her right arm was injured and bleeding. It was impossible for her armor to be breached and bleed.

Yet, it had truly happened.

Her right arm, as hard as bedrock, was now flowing with blood.

"All brute force and no skill," Shirou commented, having somewhat understood Beatrice's strength. "The Thunder God himself would weep if he knew his user was this weak."

"Shut up, useless!" Beatrice glared fiercely at Shirou, licking her lips. "This is getting interesting, interesting!"

"With your strength, can you protect Julian? Even if you do, what then? Your actions will be Julian's funeral," Shirou mocked mercilessly. "Don't you care if your dear Lord Julian eventually turns completely into Darius?"

Hearing this, Beatrice froze.

No matter how much Shirou taunted her, Beatrice wouldn't care, only attacking Shirou with her hammer. But, but the Julian she adored, would die if she continued fighting like this?

"What do you mean?" Beatrice panicked.

"As a servant of the Einzbern family, don't you have any sense of Brother B? Every generation's head eventually becomes Darius. Julian is the same, Zacary is the same, they are all just tools to extend Darius's life," Shirou spread his hands, also recovering some strength. Using God Slayer of Hundred Beasts consumed too much stamina, and continuing to fight now would be disadvantageous.

"Of course I know that, but if you, if you just give up the Holy Grail? Darius will be freed from Julian..." Beatrice abruptly stopped herself.

"Freed from Julian?" Shirou caught the flaw in her logic. Was that her plan?

"Useless, shut up!" Beatrice attacked in a flustered state. Shirou discarded God Slayer of Hundred Beasts, drew his twin blades again, and easily knocked her away once more.

"How filthy and disgusting. To protect yourself, you'd sacrifice my sister?" Shirou walked towards Beatrice. "You deceived her, sacrificed the Einzbern, Darius truly is... selfless, dedicating himself to all of humanity!"

Beatrice stumbled back a couple of steps, a flicker of fear in her eyes.

"No, it's not like that, it's not like that!"

Just as she lost her composure, Berserker stood up again, his eyes filled with rage, raising his axe-sword.

"Ah!" Beatrice was sent flying. She tried to use Mjolnir again, but Berserker was already immune to Mjolnir. The same attack used a second time would have no effect on him!

"Wryyyyyyyyy!"

With no desire to fight, Beatrice understood this clearly. Should she flee? But she couldn't escape. The black Berserker in front of her was far too fast.

And the black Berserker once again raised his axe-sword. The next moment would be her death, causing her to even close her eyes.
