Special technique from Servant Emiya, Projection.
This is an ability that Emiya Shirou gained after developing his projection power to its peak.
The basis of its birth is the memories of the original owner of the Noble Phantasm that he gains when projecting Noble Phantasms.
As the saying goes, memories are the crystallization of the soul, a fusion of will and skill.
Although Emiya Shirou's projection can only obtain part of the memories from the original owner, as long as he masters these memories, the soul contained in the memories will briefly attach itself to Shirou, allowing Shirou to master abilities that should not belong to him and are difficult to learn later.
He used this technique before when he faced the water god Reida, projecting Tsubame Gaeshi from Servant Sasaki Kojiro.
Even though Shirou himself had never learned Swallow Return, and had never even used Sasaki Kojiro's weapon.
But as long as he performs Projection Loading, he can acquire the skills from Sasaki Kojiro, and even master Tsubame Gaeshi that enters the realm of the gods.
Similarly, Shirou once projected the Hercule's Shoot Hundred Heads when he killed the red dragon.
Even if Shirou has never learned these techniques from heroes, and has not researched the use of weapons, as long as he performs Projection Loading, he can integrate them into himself and turn them into his own martial arts.
Of course, Shirou also knows very well that all of this is just false martial arts, the power of the Servant is briefly attached to his body.
Once this battle is over, these seemingly effortless skills will all return to nothing.
However, this time the situation is different.
When Shirou performed Projection Loading with the Sword of Promised Victory, he found that the situation was quite strange, and a situation that surprised and even confused him appeared.
It was clearly an ability he had never mastered, the swordsmanship of King Arthur Artoria.
At the moment of Projection Loading into himself, Shirou inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity, and his body even moved instinctively.
This familiar feeling made Shirou feel a little uncomfortable at first, and he found it very difficult to understand.
But he quickly realized the truth.
The reason why he was so familiar with Artoria's swordsmanship, and even felt a sense of familiarity from the bottom of his heart at the moment of Projection, was because Servant Emiya had learned swordsmanship from Artoria when she was young in his memories.
It can even be said that the birth of Servant Emiya's swordsmanship was based on Artoria's swordsmanship, and honed little by little.
In addition, the Sword God Style that Shirou learned after coming to this world is also essentially similar to Artoria's swordsmanship to a certain extent.
As King Arthur, Artoria's sword light is like a rushing lightning, even if it does not reach the exaggerated absolute speed of the Sword God Style, it is also a technique based on high-speed slashing.
Of course, Artoria is strong enough because of her own body, and can even achieve the impact of a fierce beast or giant dragon with just the released magic power, which leads her to abandon part of pure skills, and can release the Sword of Light at the speed of light even by relying on her body's instincts.
And this technique also gave Shirou some inspiration to a certain extent.
Let him realize that achieving the real Longsword of Light may not rely on pure martial arts and techniques.
Sometimes, taking shortcuts may be a feasible way.
"..."
At the moment when Shirou drew out the Sword of Promised Victory and completed Projection Loading, Nakul and Jad in the distance showed nervous expressions at the same time.
The two brothers themselves did not understand why they suddenly became so urgent.
They were clearly facing a high level Swordsman of the Sword God Style who had not completely mastered the Longsword of Light, even if they said something like "half-step Sword Saint," they had never really taken Shirou seriously in their hearts.
But the feeling Shirou gave people at the moment was obviously not right.
There was no special change in his body, and he was still the seemingly unremarkable and weak-looking teenager, but he inexplicably gave people an undeniable sense of oppression.
Especially the golden sword in his hand, although it was a weapon they had never seen before, and it looked more like a pure decoration than a weapon for combat.
But when Nakul and Jad saw this sword, they instinctively felt a piercing pain.
"Brother..."
Jad looked at his brother, with a suspicious look on his face.
Among the two brothers, Jad was obviously the more rational and more in control of the battlefield situation. He felt a sense of retreat the moment he realized something was wrong, and wanted to escape this battlefield.
As the saying goes, where there is life, there is hope.
They actually didn't need to fight Shirou at all now. As long as they took Princess Ariel and escaped, then took her to a place where no one was around, and completed the order issued by Darius, they could completely achieve the conditions for victory.
However, Nakul was obviously not as conservative as Jad, and he didn't take Shirou seriously at all.
Even if the other party took a strange weapon, and seemed to be slightly different, so what?
Isn't he still a half-step Sword Saint who hasn't even mastered the complete Longsword of Light?
Nakul and Jad are both genuine North Saints, and the two brothers working together can even compete with ordinary king-level powerhouses.
He simply didn't think there was anything to fear from Shirou alone.
"Don't be afraid, brother, let's take him down together!"
"..."
Jad was a little helpless about Nakul's reaction, but did not refute it.
After all, he himself felt a little doubtful about his intuition, and didn't quite understand why they should be afraid of Shirou, a half-step Sword Saint.
Sometimes, intuition is not necessarily correct.
It still depends on real-time adaptability.
"—!"
So, Nakul and Jad, the two North Kings, once again attacked Shirou. They each held a weapon in their hands, and exuded the oppression unique to a ronin who licks blood from blades.
Seeing this scene, not to mention Shirou, who was familiarizing himself with the unique feel of the Sword of Promised Victory, and the rhythm of magic power transmission.
Luke instinctively felt worried for Shirou when he saw this scene.
He now deeply realized his powerlessness and incompetence, and was unable to participate in this level of battle in the slightest.
Not to mention helping Shirou, even seeing the details of this battle clearly was far beyond his ability.
Luke used to grow up as a nobleman, and was proud of his status as a nobleman.
It can be said that he grew up under the attention and expectations of everyone.
Because of his noble status, he had not suffered much hardship, and had never experienced the test of life and death. Even becoming an Intermediate Rank Swordsman could be said to have received the praise of many people.
At that time, he really thought that he was strong enough, and becoming an Intermediate Rank Swordsman was enough to be called a genius.
But this idea lasted until now, until this battle between real geniuses broke out in front of him, and Luke realized that he was just a tiny frog in a well.
Describing him as stupid and dull is too appropriate.
Luke himself was almost unable to help but force a bitter smile.
Because the gap between reality and ideals was too big, he now had no more ideas, and could only keep praying in his heart, praying that Shirou could win and rescue Ariel!
"..."
As the saying goes, the preparation for a battle is often described with lengthy words.
But the process of battle is generally only in an instant.
In an instant that was completely impossible for people to react to, the two North Saints, Nakul and Jad, suddenly launched an attack. The two brothers launched a surprise attack with completely different but rhythmically distinct actions.
Nakul rushed towards Shirou from the front, wanting to compete with Shirou head-on with fair and upright North God Style swordsmanship.
But Jad followed Nakul's figure like a shadow, and suddenly took a surprise attack, throwing out several black beads.
The black beads were hidden weapons filled with ink. Once the opponent blocked them, even if they blocked this attack, their vision would be obscured by the splashing ink.
At that time, Nakul, who was fighting head-on, could easily complete the offensive and easily win the battle with his saint-level North God Style swordsmanship.
The Nakuljad brothers' combo can be said to be seamless, and they have never tasted defeat so far.
They are confident.
Not to mention opponents of the same level, even king-level masters cannot withstand their insidious combo.
There is no possibility of survival for Shirou, a mere half-step Sword Saint.
"Pa!"
The black beads cut through the air and rushed towards Shirou.
At the same time, Nakul's actions followed closely behind, and could erupt at any time.
Facing this desperate pincer attack, it was obvious that Shirou could not make an action that exceeded common sense. He could only make the same choice as most people, which was to use his sword to block the ink beads, and then fight Nakul when his vision was limited.
And if he made such a choice, it would basically be equivalent to courting death.
Nakul and Jad were ready, waiting to see the moment when this ignorant guy welcomed death.
However, the two brothers' thoughts only lasted for an instant.
At the moment when Shirou's sword collided with the ink beads, an incredible scene appeared in front of them.
"Boom!"
Magic power!
Amazing magic power erupted from Shirou's body!
At this moment, the golden longsword turned into a torrent, splitting the ink beads with an extremely exaggerated form, but the ink in the ink beads did not touch Shirou at all, but was directly lifted by the torrent-like air waves, and swept away like a storm.
King Arthur Artoria once had a unique skill, which was to use the Wind King Barrier wrapped around the Noble Phantasm Excalibur to turn it into a fiery sword wind and oppress the opponent.
Now, although Shirou is using the Sword of Promised Victory without the Wind King Barrier, he has also achieved a similar technique by imitating it with wind-based magic—
Its name is, Wind King's Iron Hammer!
