"But he seemed to have died in battle~."

"Medusa's guaranteed to win. Once the Petrifying Magic Eye comes out, who can stand against her? Whoever she looks at dies!"

"I don't buy it. The Betrayal Witch Medea can summon dragons. Can you snake monster petrify a dragon?"

"No, no, no, Cú Chulainn is the strongest Servant. Who can block a magic spear that always kills and always hits? This is a Causality-level Great Killer!"

"Damn it, has anyone figured out who the white-haired female Heroic Spirit is? I can't find her in history!"

"Could it be Wu Zetian?!"

"My guess is Hua Mulan!"

"I'm guessing Catherine the Great!"

"It's definitely Joan of Arc!"

"Why can't it be the Egyptian Queen!"

"The hell do you mean Egyptian Queen? Neither the outfit nor the accent looks anything like her, okay!"

"The Holy Grail that can grant any wish... I want one so badly."

"What do you think the final winner will wish for?"

"Eternal youth? Or immortality, with their soul materialized?"

"What if they had someone important they wanted to revive?"

"...Rise again, my love?"

"The image is too beautiful. I don't dare imagine it."

Amid the idle chatter of netizens, this comment thread had already piled up several thousand replies.

Evening, Chiba Prefecture.

Shimo Yukino pushed open the front door with exhaustion written across her face, feeling as though her body had been hollowed out.

Because of Fate/stay night, she had drawn attention wherever she went. Although it had not drained much of her physical strength, the mental strain had been unbearable.

Now that she was home, she only wanted some peace and quiet. She wanted to treat it like a nightmare and get a good night's sleep.

But then...

A familiar BGM came from the living room, followed by a familiar raspy female voice.

"I know that valuing others more than yourself is hypocrisy."

"Even so... even so..."

"The wish for others to become happy should be a beautiful thing."

"This dream is absolutely not wrong!!!"

After the audio ended, it actually started playing again.

"..."

Shimo Yukino fell silent.

The only person who would do something as ridiculous as putting it on loop was probably Haruno.

"Ah~ our Justice Partner is back?"

In the living room, the woman with an impish smile stood up and teased:

"I never thought Yukino had such a cute side~."

"You damn siscon, get lost!"

What greeted her was Yukino's somewhat disdainful gaze.

Ever since Mr. Luo had exposed Haruno's "siscon fetish," her radiant image in Yukino's heart had shattered.

Could this little-sister-obsessed freak just die already?!

"What's wrong with being a siscon!"

Haruno pouted in complaint. Her little sister was looking at her like she was trash...

It felt so good!

Strengthening the Red Dragon Physique, Soaring Combat Power, Kagome in Danger!

"The plan succeeded. In half a day, the Divine Authority Jade increased tenfold. This feels amazing!"

Inside Happiness Villa, the young man in a Moon-White Feather Robe smiled brightly. As silver ripples spread on the left side of his vision, the detailed information panel appeared once more.

Creator: Luo Shu Life Level: Mortal Realm (First Stage Peak) Theoretical Lifespan: 93 years Divine Authority Jade: 3726.42

He had made a killing!

He had completely made a killing!

Luo Shu could clearly sense countless waves of faith gathering from all over the world like an ocean, forming a terrifying vortex and pouring into the Silver Ripple, as though they were medicinal herbs ground apart by a stone mill.

After being tempered and purified hundreds of thousands of times, they finally formed silver "Omnipotent Power"...

"Jade Rabbit pounding medicine, huh..."

He observed the scene with great interest, thinking of famous ancient poetry.

The faith of all living beings was the medicinal herb, while his Void cheat was the Jade Rabbit pounding the medicine.

The two complemented each other. It was indeed a fitting description.

"At this rate, I should be able to create the Heavenly Curtain by tomorrow morning."

The young man muttered to himself, rubbing his chin with his index finger.

In this dangerous world, he intended to use the Divine Authority Jade to step into the Transcendent Realm.

Although waiting until the Fate/stay night film officially aired and strengthening his real self after he appeared in it would save quite a bit of Divine Authority Jade, what if he encountered danger he could not react to in the meantime?

This was a Japanese anime mixed anime world where Evil Spirits ran rampant and demons rose together!

To put it bluntly, even though he held several thousand Divine Authority Jade, he was still a mortal at heart.

If he got unlucky and was hit by a large truck while walking down the road, he would definitely die on the spot.

Then he would not even have a place to cry about it.

Save when he should save, spend when he should spend.

Life and safety came first. His future was still bright; dying because he was stingy would be a joke.

The young man pondered for a moment before suddenly asking:

"Void, how much Divine Authority Jade would I need to become as strong as Isayama Yomina?"

"Bzzzz... (Calculating.)"

"Bzzzzzzzzz... (Estimated requirement: 1796.41 Divine Authority Jade.)"

Beautiful silver ripples spread through the Void and swiftly gave him an answer.

"Huh? That much?"

Luo Shu was somewhat stunned.

He remembered that when he had encountered Isayama Yomina, the calculation had shown that 275.6 Divine Authority Jade would be enough to kill her.

Why did strengthening himself to her level require a four-digit amount of Divine Authority Jade?

In response to the young man's question, the Void immediately gave its answer.

Without relying on external objects, Isayama Yomina's strength rivaled a Transcendent Realm expert at the Second Stage Peak. Going all out, she could destroy an entire commercial street. But she was also the heir of the Isayama Clan, an Exorcist Family.

She possessed a "family heirloom," the Divine Blade Lion King...!

With the Divine Blade in hand, Isayama Yomina's strength entered the even more powerful Third Stage.

Using characters from Fate/stay night as an example, she was roughly equivalent to 0.1 units of Sasaki Kojiro.

However, a blade was a blade, and a person was a person.

To kill Isayama Yomina, he did not necessarily have to shatter the Divine Blade Lion King.

At the end of the day, humans were all fragile creatures.

If Isayama Yomina had her throat slit in one stroke, no weapon would matter no matter how powerful it was.

"I see..."

Luo Shu scratched his head.

In that case, he could not use Isayama Yomina as a template for enhancement. After all, her strength was all tied to her blade. Slightly strengthening his body and then manifesting a Divine Blade Lion King felt a little wasteful.

After thinking for a moment, he said slowly.

"Void, using King Arthur from Fate/stay night as a template, manifest a Red Dragon Physique on me with 1596.41 Divine Authority Jade. A thinner bloodline is fine."

"Then spend another two hundred Divine Authority Jade to manifest Isayama Yomina's combat experience, Sword Techniques and Daoist Arts, for me."

"Bzzz... (As you command!)"

The Silver Ripple began to spread. Divine Authority Jade started to be consumed, and a glow invisible to outsiders enveloped him, seeping into and cleansing his body.

The young man slowly closed his eyes, the sleeves of his Moon-White Feather Robe swaying in the wind.

In an instant, like a flood bursting through a dam, countless chaotic fragments of memory surged into his mind. It was as though he had arrived in an Exorcist Family with a long heritage, where he was the clan's most gifted child, training in swordsmanship and Daoist arts day and night.

At the same time, the resilience of his muscles continued to strengthen, and his spirit grew ever more powerful.

In an instant, Luo Shu became a battle-hardened swordsmanship master.

He could effortlessly replicate every combat technique Isayama Yomina possessed.

Even the muscle memory she had built through more than a decade of diligent training had been obtained by him.

Along with it came Isayama Yomina's extensive knowledge. Whether it was savage demons or resentful Evil Spirits ravaging cities, he dealt with them one by one as though he had experienced it all himself.

In an instant, he went from a complete novice who understood nothing to an exorcism expert.

One look confirmed it: he was a freeloader!

At the same time, the strength of his soul and body soared wildly.

"Thump! Thump thump!!"

Suddenly, powerful heartbeats rang out around him, like a dormant monster awakening.

The young man clenched his fist. It was as though he had instantly grown the heart of a Red Dragon. His handsome face became sacred, while the dark locks hanging beside his cheeks resembled dragon whiskers. An ancient, majestic aura spread through the air.

At that moment, several moths in the room perched on the chandelier began to tremble.

This was the natural intimidation of a higher life-form toward lower life-forms. Even insects felt instinctive fear.

No one knew how long passed...

When Luo Shu slowly came back to his senses, the world before him had already become completely different.

It was as though he had been reborn. His body felt better than ever; everything he saw was vividly colored, and everything he heard was lively and clear.

The young man lowered his head, staring dazedly at his own hand.

He could clearly sense just how explosive the power within it was!

Immense magical power flowed through his body, ready to erupt at any moment and blast apart everything in its path.
