Jobless Reincarnation: Emiya the Great Hero Must Show His True Skills

Page 157

Alice was so shocked she couldn't close her mouth.

Upon arriving in Milishion, the capital of the Holy Kingdom of Milis, Shirou did not hesitate and immediately began arranging his itinerary.

First, he needs to find a priest here who knows how to detoxify to remove the poison from his body.

Secondly, he needs to find Paul, who has assembled the search and rescue team, and Paul should be accompanied by his sister Noren.

After completing the above two tasks, Shirou also plans to take action as Muramasa to repair the Golden Sword of Victory and replenish the magic stones of Avalon.

Everything is important and crucial.

Shirou therefore decided to go alone, leaving Alice and Rigel to act on their own.

He originally thought Alice would be unwilling, but to his surprise, she was quite easygoing and agreed directly.

I asked around and found out that Alice originally wanted to go to the Adventurers' Guild alone to take on monster hunting quests, since she hadn't made any further progress since breaking through to the advanced level of Sword God Style.

The main reason is that Shirou and Rigel are simply too powerful. Most monsters were easily dealt with by the two of them, which prevented Alice from getting any training.

Now that she has the opportunity, she naturally wants to show off her skills and hone her swordsmanship.

Chapter 217 The Blade of Light? How can there be such a young sword saint?!

As Alice's swordsmanship teacher, Shirou naturally agreed with Alice's idea.

Of course, in reality, Shirou almost never refers to himself as Alice's swordsmanship teacher anymore.

After all, Shirou only taught Alice basic swordsmanship, and after she reached the advanced level of the Sword God Style, her foundation had become quite solid.

At the same time, his swordsmanship talent was even more evident than Shirou's.

While Shirou is a fake swordsmanship genius, Alice is undoubtedly the real genius.

As long as the other party stays on the right path and doesn't lose their way, they will surely continue to grow stronger.

Shirou no longer has the ability to teach the other person.

So the next day, Alice went out alone to the Adventurers' Guild to accept a quest.

Meanwhile, Rachel Rudd also had to go out alone.

He was said to be going to visit an old friend in the Holy Kingdom of Milis.

Shirou naturally didn't care too much about Rigel's visit to relatives and friends. After silently nodding, they went their separate ways.

Shirou also has things to do.

After a brief brainstorming session, Shirou decided to first go to the church in the Holy Kingdom of Milis to seek the priest's assistance in removing the toxins from his body.

Although he has been using this poison-corroded body for quite some time now, and is even able to fight for short periods of time while slightly poisoned, it shows that his resistance to poison has increased significantly. Perhaps in the future he will be able to completely neutralize the poison on his own. However, if possible, Shirou naturally hopes to get rid of the poisoned state as soon as possible.

After all, no one can guarantee that a sudden battle won't occur, and Shirou must ensure that he is always ready to fight.

He walked towards the magnificent Milis Church.

But as they were about to reach the church, Shirou suddenly noticed some activity in a narrow alleyway.

Although Milision, the capital of the Holy Kingdom of Milis, is a city that appears incredibly sacred and solemn, no matter how sacred a city may be, it is bound to be rife with evil.

Just like light and shadow, they exist together forever.

Moreover, in most cases, the brighter the light, the denser the shadow.

The moment Shirou sensed the strange noise, his instincts as a champion of justice kicked in, prompting him to take immediate action.

Although his body had not yet fully recovered, Shirou was already capable of engaging in simple combat. However, he did not overestimate his abilities and instead tried to assess the situation first.

Under his cautious approach, Shirou noticed a group of men hurrying towards him from the other end of the narrow alley.

These men looked very flustered, even cautious, glancing around frequently while instinctively looking at the sacks in their hands.

Although the other party was being careful enough, Shirou could still tell at a glance that there was a person in the sack.

Kidnapping incident?

Shirou hesitated slightly, but did not make a move immediately. Instead, he quietly followed.

With his ability to see far and wide, he can now track targets from great distances. In extreme cases, he can even wait until the target reaches their lair and then follow them directly there.

However, because he was worried that the kidnappers would attack directly, he continued to follow them.

Soon, the men arrived at a warehouse.

The warehouse does not face the main street and can only be accessed through a narrow alley.

After the men brought the people in the sacks into the warehouse, they breathed a sigh of relief and began to discuss the matter in the tavern next to the warehouse.

Shirou realized this might be the kidnappers' hideout and began to consider whether he should rescue the people directly or simply go to the Holy Kingdom of Milis's guards to call for backup.

His thoughts didn't last long before he made a decision—

Let's get started.

Shirou, being a renowned swordsman, used his clairvoyance to observe the situation inside the tavern and discovered that most of the people there were just ordinary mercenaries and adventurers, nothing to be afraid of.

He then strode straight forward and entered the warehouse.

"who!"

Shirou's appearance provoked a reaction from many mercenaries.

Some stood up in a panic, others hastily picked up their weapons, while others hurriedly left, trying to find someone to deliver the message.

Shirou paid no attention to any of this, but silently drew the demon sword Orifu from his waist and said, "Hand over the child you kidnapped."

"Tsk, are they bodyguards or mercenaries from that wealthy family?"

The other side seemed to have misunderstood Shirou's identity, thinking that someone had hired him.

Shirou didn't bother to explain; he was simply there to stop evil from happening.

These criminals will only have one fate: to be taken to the location of law enforcement officers.

"Kid, don't go looking for trouble. You can still leave now, or we won't hold back."

The one who spoke was a female knight dressed in sexy, revealing armor. She didn't seem to have any intention of killing him and advised Shirou to leave quickly.

Shirou was somewhat surprised by the female knight's relatively gentle attitude, but he wasn't about to slink away like that.

He held the back of his sword to the enemy and silently said, "Don't think you'll be forgiven for committing a crime."

"Hey! Kid! If you want to play the hero, get out of here! We haven't committed any crimes!"

"Can you say that your actions aren't kidnapping?"

"This……"

The female knight was speechless in the face of Shirou's question.

The mercenaries around her had long since lost their patience and arrogantly picked up their weapons, saying, "Don't worry about anything else, just take this guy down quickly, so we don't have to trouble the captain to handle it."

"This... okay."

The female knight gritted her teeth and finally agreed to fight.

Several mercenaries armed with weapons rushed over.

They surrounded Shirou from all directions.

But this would certainly not pose a threat to Shirou.

Even if the poisoning hadn't been cured, Shirou could easily wipe out these guys.

"Snapped!"

The sword of light was suddenly swung.

The silver-white blade transformed into a crescent-shaped beam of light, tearing through space in the blink of an eye.

"Woo!"

"Uh!"

With a single sword strike, Shirou rendered all the mercenaries before him unconscious.

Upon seeing this, the female knight was undoubtedly shocked. She was no stranger to such things, and exclaimed on the spot, "The Blade of Light?! You're a Sword Saint?! How can you be so young?!"

While the female knight was still in shock, Shirou had already gripped the Windbreaker and was closing in.

Even without activating his clairvoyance, he could still clearly see the movements of all the mercenaries.

It's not just about how many enemies are on the scene, but also about potential reinforcements.

For Shirou, these opponents were nothing. Those who couldn't stop the Blade of Light were no different from roadside weeds, destined only to be harvested.

"Whoa! Everyone's been knocked down!"

"How can there be such a young sword saint? It's almost unbelievable, like the captain's son!"

"There's no other way, hurry up and call the battalion commander over!"

"But the commander drank quite a lot today!"

"That guy is still very strong even after drinking!"

The mercenaries began to chatter amongst themselves.

Although Shirou was curious about the so-called captain, he couldn't afford to waste time right now. The toxins in his body prevented him from sustaining a high-intensity battle for an extended period, so he had to finish the fight quickly.

"Wow!"

Another silver-white slash.

Shirou swung his sword with only the back of the blade, yet his speed was still so fast that none of the mercenaries present could keep up.

Those who rushed in without thinking had no time to react and were easily defeated by Shirou.

Only at this moment did Shirou finally realize that something was wrong.

Most of these so-called mercenaries are unarmed ordinary people, and even mages are rare. It's hard to imagine that this is the kind of setup a kidnapping organization should have.

Instead, it was a group of militiamen hastily assembled.

By the time Shirou began to have doubts, the mercenaries had completely panicked and lost all courage to confront him.

"There's no other way, we have to hold them off until the commander arrives!"

The scantily clad female knight drew her sword from her waist, forced to take the initiative.

A young female mage beside her served as her partner, working in coordination with her.

"A cool, shallow stream appears here—water bullets!"

Shirou didn't even bother to pay attention to this kind of magic that required slow chanting to activate.

He continued forward without changing his pace, and just as the water bullet was about to hit him, he tore it apart with a single sword strike.

"Snapped!"

Compared to Shirou's fighting spirit, this level of magic was as fragile as a thin sheet of paper, instantly dissipating into an elemental tide.

"Okay, so strong!"

The magician looked shocked, momentarily stunned, never expecting her carefully prepared magic to be so easily broken.

This is because Shirou has already fought against too many powerful magicians.

The magic used by the legions under the Undying Demon King Atofi is said to be a thousand times, ten thousand times stronger than this.

However, the problem at hand is not just about magic.

The female knight's sword was already slashing towards her.

Judging from the movements, it should be Kitakami-ryu.

His strength is suspected to be at a lower level.

He's considered excellent among ordinary people, but he's far inferior to Shirou.

"Snapped!"

With a single sword strike, Shirou knocked the female knight's weapon away and then kicked her, rendering her unable to move.

too weak.

Shirou felt this way more and more.

The quality of these mercenaries was far inferior to that of Giles' group.
