Right at 22:00 p.m., Shirou and Azazel are already at the Nijou Castle. Suddenly, a very large bounded field appeared surrounding the hotel where the member of the O.R.C. and a member of the Student Council were staying. All the ordinary humans inside the hotel have already passed out because of the magical effect of the Bounded Field.
"An enemy is attacking, huh?" Griselda said while gritting her teeth. "And the enemies had already set up a bounded field so their evil action didn't attract the attention of ordinary people; that was a standard move that every smart villain made. And it looks like they set up some magic inside the bounded field that makes non-magical people fall asleep."
"Griselda-Sensei! Suddenly all the students and people inside the hotel suddenly fell asleep." Momo Hanakai, the white-haired bishop of Sona peerage, suddenly opened the door of Griselda's room and started shouting while panicking. She feels very confused by what has happened in the hotel.
"Sister Griselda, there was a mysterious Bounded Field that made all the non-magical people in the hotel pass out!" Xenovia is also going inside Griselda's room right after Momo goes in. "What we must do!"
"Griselda-san! There was a mysterious phenomenon that happened in this hotel right now!" Illya and Kuro are also going inside Griselda's room because they are afraid of the sudden mass sleep inside the hotel. And they knew the only one they could ask for help from was Griselda, whom they knew wouldn't pass out from the effect of the bounded field.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxWithin the boundaries of Nijou Castle, Shirou and Azazel walked slowly past the gardens of Ninomaru Palace.
"There were enemies attacking the hotel," Shirou said with an angry look in his face after he detected a lot of low-level monsters that surrounded the hotel. "Cao Cao is trying to fight dirty, huh? By attacking the places where a person that was precious to me was living, I knew that in a life and death situation, fighting dirty can be considered a fair way of doing things. But he told me that he is a descendant of a hero, but the actions that he takes right now are the opposite of what heroes usually do. He doesn't have the right to call himself a hero. And it looks like the one who attacked the hotel was Leonardo, the user of Annihilation Maker."
"It was really amazing that you could detect enemies from this place to the hotel where we were staying," Azazel said, who was in awe after seeing Shirou's detection ability. "Your perception ability is really something else; it's on another level; not even the fallen angels who have a good perception ability have it at your level; is that ability one of the perks that you have as a high human?"
"Well, you can say it like that," Shirou said with a sigh. "But let's talk about it another time, because right now we have more important things to do.""Even though you knew about the enemies that were attacking the hotel, why didn't you look worried at all?" Asked Azazel.
"That Annihilation Maker user only attacked the hotel using a low-level monster; that kind of monster wasn't strong enough to defeat Rin, Griselda-san, and my two little sisters," Shirou replied. "Beside that, I think that the Annihilation Maker user cannot make a high-level monster because "he" lost a lot of power because he already made a lot of ultimate-class monsters that are right now surrounding us."

"So that boy is the one who inherits the arsenal of the king of heroes, and beside that, he is also the son of 'that' monster," Ophis said, looking at Shirou from the roof of Nijou Castle, who was right now surrounded by a lot of ultimate class monsters along with Azazel. "That boy is having a power that surpasses me, Kaleidoscope, and also Great Red inside his body, even though right now his body isn't strong enough to withstand the great power that he has. And beside that, I think that boy had something that I have been searching for all this time."
Cao Cao, who was standing beside Ophis, didn't understand why Ophis said that Shirou had something that Ophis was searching for. Because of what he knew, what Ophis searched for all this time was a quiet place where the infinity dragon could enjoy the thing that she liked the most: silence.
"Emiya Shirou right now was an enemy that we must face, Ophis-sama," Cao Cao said while bowing his body to Ophis. "Because he will hinder the ritual to summon the Great Red that we will do this night, are you really sure that he has something that you have searched for all this time?"
"I'm sure, Cao Cao, because my instinct is never wrong if it's about the most important thing that I need," Ophis said. "But right now, because he is our enemy and will disturb the important ritual, do what you think is right to stop him, Cao Cao. But please don't kill him, because I need him alive."
"As you wish, Ophis-Sama," Cao Cao said while bowing his head once again. "I will make sure that the monster that is attacking Emiya Shirou will not kill him."After Cao Cao said that, Ophis disappeared from the roof of Nijou Castle, leaving Cao Cao alone on that roof.
"To think Ophis will come here to see the ritual, this is something that I didn't expect," Cao Cao said with a relieved face after seeing Ophis is no longer with him.
"Yeah, that was surprising," Georg said, who had appeared from the mist in front of Cao Cao. "But why did Ophis want from Emiya Shirou?"
"Whatever she wanted with that monster was not our business," Cao Cao said while floating in the air using one of the orbs of his Longinus. "Because right now we have a mission that we must finish."
"Are you sure that Leonardo will be able to finish the task that you gave him?" Asked Georg."That kid job was only for a distraction, so there was no one in that hotel who would come to help Azazel and Emiya Shirou," Cao Cao replied. "Whether his task was finished or not was not important at all."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxMeanwhile, at the hotel where the Kuoh Gakuen student was staying, The Student Council, O.R.C., as well as Kuro and Illya, are busy facing a lot of low-level monsters that try to go inside the hotel.
"Ahh, why did I have to fight as a magical girl even though my job to collect the Class card was already over?" Illya said this while stabbing the head of the low-level monster with Gae Bolg right after she was installing the Lancer Class Card. "Are I having E-rank luck like Onii-chan in my parameter?"
"Shut up, Illya! Stop talking and do your job more seriously!" Kuro said while cutting the head of the monster in front of her using Kanshou and Bakuya. "If we let all of this monster go inside the hotel, then the lives of the non-magical people will be in danger!"
"The twin little sister of Emiya is stronger than me!" Saji said while using his absorption line. "That was unbelievable! And beside that, both of them were magical girls. If the two of them were to meet with Serafall-Sama, that would be a disaster."
"Both of them were descendants of a famous magus family, so of course both of them were really strong," Xenovia said, who was busy swinging her Durandal to cut down three low-level monsters at the same time. "A low-level reincarnated devil like you, who only have middle-tier sacred gear, cannot be compared to them."
