Crossover Anime: I, Shirou Kotomine, King of Uruk

Chapter 62 The Great Counterattack

""

"oh!!!"

After a brief silence, loud shouts suddenly rang out from all around Kotomine Shirou, and some people even rushed over from behind and hugged him around the neck.

For example, Natsu and Gray.

"You're something else, Shirou! You really scared me to death!"

"Grey, you're back!"

Seeing Gray's excited expression, Shirou Kotomine quickly asked him.

"Yes, I have collected all of the old man's magic and handed it over to Ms. Porusica."

"But when I arrived from behind, I witnessed the Phantom Lord unleashing its magic cluster cannon. It was truly astonishing."

"It terrified me at the time."

Gray explained.

"This is already the best possible outcome!"

Kotomine Shirou couldn't help but sigh.

Unlike his memory of Mistorgon receiving Mirajane's message before collecting the guild master's magic power, this time Shirou Kotomine directly sent Gray to collect the magic power.

Therefore, Chairman Makarov's awakening time will likely be even faster this time.

This shortens the time they need to persevere.

The margin for error in the whole incident has also increased.

Kotomine Shirou couldn't help but ponder.

Before he could think any further, the Fairy Tail members swarmed around him.

"Shirou, are you alright?!"

"That's awesome, Shirou, you're so cool."

"I never knew you had this trick up your sleeve! You're a real man!"

The crowd surrounded Shirou Kotomine, showering him with praise and compliments.

The members of Fairy Tail were also incredibly excited at this moment.

After all, just now, their guild and their companions were almost wiped out by the Spectre's cannon shot.

They couldn't even imagine what that would mean!

"Shirou!"

Suddenly, a figure rushed up and jumped onto Kotomine Shirou.

This sudden movement almost caused Shirou Kotomine to fall.

Fortunately, there were many people standing behind him, and with their help, Kotomine Shirou did not fall down.

"Sister Mira, what's wrong!"

Looking at his own face with its long silver hair, Shirou Kotomine knew all too well who the newcomer was.

The visitor was none other than Mirajane.

She was currently hugging Shirou Kotomine's neck and crying loudly.

"Thank goodness, I'm so glad you and Erza are both alright."

"Thank you, Shirou!"

Thank you!

Mirajane was also extremely excited at this moment.

The guild leader is seriously injured, and several S-rank mages are not in the guild.

At this most critical moment, she, who should have been supporting the guild, seemed powerless.

Especially when Erza and Shirou Kotomine stood in front of the magic cluster cannon one after the other, Mirajane's heart was tormented.

Although she can briefly regain her strength with the help of Shirou Kotomine.

However, the several-year hiatus has made it impossible for her to support the guild like Erza did.

You only realize how little you know when you need it.

The same applies to strength.

Mirajane's excitement at this moment stemmed from the pain of his own inadequacy.

She came to understand more and more about her past naiveté.

First, he naively failed to protect his younger sister, and now he naively fails to protect the guild.

The moment the Phantom Lord's magic cluster cannon lit up, Mirajane's past memories flooded back.

Overwhelmed with regret, she immediately burst into tears.

Fortunately, Shirou Kotomine blocked the attack.

That's why she hugged Kotomine Shirou so excitedly.

"It's alright, Mira, it's what I should do."

Patting Mirajane on the back, Shirou Kotomine softly comforted him.

"Don't be modest, Shirou, you really saved everyone this time!"

Erza stepped forward, smiled, and patted Shirou Kotomine on the shoulder, her words filled with gratitude.

Kotomine Shirou did more than just save the guild.

It also saved her.

After all, at that moment, Erza was already prepared to die.

"That's right, Shirou, you deserve all of this, so don't be modest!"

Cheers erupted from the crowd.

Kotomine Shirou no longer adopted a humble attitude, but instead smiled and accepted everyone's praise.

To be honest, Shirou Kotomine is very tired right now.

The previous attack had almost drained his magical energy, leaving Shirou Kotomine feeling incredibly empty.

But the praise he received gradually made him feel fulfilled.

Power welled up from within.

"This is the power of camaraderie!"

Kotomine Shirou thought to himself.

However, this scene did not last long.

Suddenly, terrifying magical power surged up from the sky above the headquarters of the Phantom Lord not far away.

The Fairy Tail members, who were cheering and jumping for joy, immediately stopped what they were doing.

Then they both looked across at the same time.

An endless darkness surged forth from the headquarters of the Phantom Lord, heading towards Fairy Tail.

.

"I never expected there to be someone like this in Fairy Tail! How come I've never heard of him before?"

Joseph, looking down from the top floor of the Phantom Lord's palace, had an extremely grim expression.

He thought that after Makarov lost his fighting ability, Fairy Tail would no longer have anything that could resist him.

No one expected that another Shirou Kotomine would suddenly appear.

"No, they definitely won't obediently hand Lucy over to me in this situation."

"Looks like I need to put in more effort!"

The corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Joseph, who was enjoying the pleasure of tormenting Fairy Tail, was now experiencing a pleasurable sensation throughout his body.

Then endless darkness flowed from his body.

"Go forth, my ghostly soldiers!"

The darkness flowing from Joseph's body quickly transformed into individual entities, which then became soldiers clad in black robes, charging down from the sky towards Fairy Tail.

"Being able to destroy a magic cluster cannon head-on is impressive, but what about this?"

After talking to himself for a while, Joseph gave a loud command.

"Activate, Purgatory Shatters!"

.

"What is that?!"

They gazed at the dark figure flying straight toward Fairy Tail from afar, and at the huge magic circle that lit up above the Phantom Lord's headquarters.

Everyone in Fairy Tail was stunned.

"Those are the ghost soldiers of Joseph, the guild master of the Phantom Lords, and the Shattered Inferno."

"The former is the opponent's signature magic, while the latter is forbidden magic."

"It seems they intend to wipe us all out!"

The well-informed group quickly sorted out the situation by exchanging their opinions.

"No, we absolutely cannot allow the Purgatory Shattering to activate successfully."

Erza immediately said.

"This spell needs about ten minutes to charge before it can be activated, and we only have ten minutes!"

Mirajane also made a judgment.

"We can't just sit here and wait to die. We need to take the initiative and fight inside their guild!"

Kotomine Shirou suggested.

"That's right, we should take the initiative and move forward."

"Infiltrate their guild!"

"Charge!"

Upon hearing Shirou Kotomine's words, the morale of the group, who had suffered greatly under the attack of the Phantom Lord, immediately soared.

Especially Natsu and Gray.

The two seemed to be getting impatient.
