With the violent collision of two terrifying magical forces, panic swept through the entire Great Forest of Jura.
High above, an enormous mass of magic power continued to radiate fluctuations in all directions. It hung in the sky like a black sun rising in reverse, oppressive and absolute.
At that moment, the Great Forest of Jura fell into complete silence.
No one even dared to breathe.
"How... how can this be?"
Treyni, who had witnessed everything through the forest itself, felt despair tighten around her heart.
"Why is Demon Lord Milim here...?"
Death felt unbearably close.
Now, all she could do was pray.
Pray for Emiya Shirou's victory.
Meanwhile, Rimuru and the others had regrouped with the retreating Rigurd and were continuing to move forward. But this time, they were no longer traveling at full speed.
They were escorting everyone.
All the citizens.
They advanced cautiously, trying to put as much distance as possible between themselves and that black sun in the sky. Because at any moment, it could fall and erase everything in the Great Forest of Jura without leaving a trace.
"Lord Rimuru, please leave first!"
"We can hold things together here. You don't need to stay in such a dangerous place!"
"The farther you are from this area, the safer you'll be!"
Hearing Shion's urgent plea, Rimuru shook his head firmly.
"I won't leave alone."
"When I accepted your loyalty, I promised that I would protect you."
"So at a time like this, I absolutely will not abandon you."
His voice was unwavering.
"This is my decision. Do not advise me further, Shion."
Then his gaze swept over everyone else.
"You too."
"Yes, we understand, Lord Rimuru."
Seeing that his resolve could not be shaken, Benimaru and the others stopped trying to persuade him.
Rimuru looked up at the black sun hanging overhead.
Silently, he prayed.
"Everything depends on you now, Shirou."
"Ah..."
Standing on the ground, Emiya Shirou raised Ea and aimed it toward Milim in the sky.
Black magic power swept violently across the battlefield, tearing at everything it touched. Trees bent and shattered. The land cracked. Even the air itself seemed to scream under the pressure.
"Father, this can't continue," the voice beside him warned urgently. "Her total magic power is at least ten times yours!"
"Yeah... I know."
Emiya Shirou gave a bitter smile.
"This is a decision I was forced into by the situation."
"At this point, I've already stepped into a dead end."
His understanding of Milim was limited.
After all, his knowledge of this world originally came from just twenty-four episodes of animation. In that story, Milim was more of a background presence.
Everything else he knew about her came from information he had gathered after arriving here.
But there was one thing he understood clearly.
Milim possessed infinite magic power.
And not just that. She had other terrifying abilities as well.
Even her Drago Nova was a restrained move.
Clashing head-on with her was foolish.
A suicidal act with no real chance of victory.
"You really don't have any other moves left, do you?"
Milim's cheerful voice rang out from above.
"How about it? Want to surrender?"
"I'm starting to like you. Want to become my subordinate?"
"No!"
Feeling the magic power within his body rapidly draining, almost dried up, Emiya Shirou shouted back.
"I won't become your subordinate!"
"And this fight isn't over yet!"
"Oh?"
Milim tilted her head, surprised.
"You're still not giving up?"
"Do you have some other trick?"
Her smile widened.
"How interesting."
"Alright then. If you can beat me with your next attack, I'll admit defeat."
"I'll stop being your enemy."
"And I'll protect your city. How about that?"
Hearing her laughter, Emiya Shirou laughed as well.
"Perfect."
Then, he activated his final technique.
"Rho Aias!"
Emiya Shirou knew it clearly.
A direct confrontation with Milim had no future.
There was no chance of winning.
So the only option left was to overturn the situation in an instant. To overwhelm her with a sudden, explosive burst of power.
But where could that power come from?
The answer was obvious.
The sword.
To enhance Ea's performance, Emiya Shirou had poured an enormous amount of magic power into it beforehand. At this point, the sword itself had become a crystallization of pure magic power.
"If... at the moment it detonates, I release everything at once..."
"She won't have time to react."
The moment the idea formed, Emiya Shirou activated Great Sage through Rimuru's ability, accelerating his thoughts.
He refined the plan again and again.
But no matter how he adjusted it, the future remained uncertain.
Only one thing was clear.
He would be directly exposed to the destructive force generated by Rho Aias.
A move that could be described as dealing a thousand damage to the enemy... while taking eight hundred himself.
Even so, Emiya Shirou did not hesitate.
This was the only gamble left.
"Let the sword guide my future!"
Pouring every last drop of magic power into Ea, Emiya Shirou roared.
"Aaaah!"
The spinning blade of Ea began to accelerate.
Faster.
Faster.
Continuously accelerating.
Limitless acceleration.
Terrifying magic power surged from the blade, its presence growing heavier and more violent by the second.
"He still has reserves?"
Milim's eyes lit up with excitement.
Her heart raced with joy.
"This is amazing!"
Such an opponent was far too interesting.
"Then I can't lose either!"
She forced even more magic power out, matching Emiya Shirou's rising output.
"Hehe. I have infinite magic power."
"You can't beat me in this."
But as she laughed, cracks began to spread across the sword in Emiya Shirou's hand.
"Now!"
"Rho Aias!"
The sword erupted with blinding light.
At that instant, Emiya Shirou felt something stir within him.
An instinctive force.
Something that helped him complete the strike.
"Boom!"
Ea exploded.
A wave of magic power dozens of times stronger than before burst outward, violently pushing back the magic power Milim had released.
"What is this?!"
"Where did he get that magic power?!"
"He shouldn't have anything left!"
Milim shouted in disbelief.
But in the next instant, her expression changed.
Even she-Milim, with infinite magic power-didn't have time to respond.
"Damn it... I can't take this head-on!"
She twisted her body and shifted position, barely avoiding the attack from below.
At that moment, everyone in the Great Forest of Jura saw it.
The black sun was blown back into the sky.
The forest was saved.
With a thunderous roar, the terrifying magic power detonated high above.
Bathed in the scattered remnants of magic energy, Milim hovered in the air, staring down at Emiya Shirou lying on the ground, gasping for breath.
"I... actually lost?"
Then, her lips slowly curved upward.
"That just makes this even more interesting."
