Chapter 37: Emperor Armor, Combine!

This way, the armor can be endowed with self-repair ability, plus a vitality feedback system, enabling it to automatically repair when damaged, and proceed with adaptive adjustment according to Shirou's life state and life force.

At that time, when Shirou encounters powerful species in the future, such as the Red Dragon of Britain, True Dragon, Sword of Promised Victory, Avalon, Revolving Sword of Victory, EA, Enkidu, Chains of Heaven, and various other extreme-element enemies, it will be possible to use alchemy to grant these traits to the armor...

Of course, trying to integrate all the above into the armor is too far-fetched. Shirou is currently only considering Avalon.

Because it's the thing he has the highest chance of acquiring right now.

Moreover, the absolute defense and super recovery traits make it the most fitting candidate to be the first thing integrated into the armor.

Relying on the system and himself, don't even think about it.

But there's also Medea, if it's her, maybe she really can grant Avalon's traits to the Emperor Armor. So this Medea, Shirou was definitely going to pick her up.

He spent three days, the detailed designs on the drafting paper filled the whole room.

Shirou organized and compiled them, and it took another day to sort them out into the simplest and most understandable version to hand over to Jubstacheit.

After reading it, Jubstacheit was silent for a long time. Suddenly, his gaze burned as he looked at Shirou.

"Berserker, don't tell me, you're a magus!?"

"No, still immature," While the system was working these days, Shirou didn't stay idle, he studied with full concentration.

Now he really could be considered an immature but knowledgeable magus in alchemy.

"Incredible, truly too incredible," Jubstacheit looked at this product that fit Einzbern alchemy so perfectly.

He was trembling with excitement, "Isn't this exactly what the Einzbern family has been looking for all along, the most perfect homunculus!?"

Shirou: "!!!"

He thought for a moment, maybe it really was.

Although it was armor, if using this concept and transforming it, making a homunculus might not be impossible.

After all, this armor could also be seen as a transformed concept of homunculus.

"Wonderful!", Jubstacheit laughed heartily.

"I-if the design concept on this paper really becomes a reality, then without a doubt, the greatest masterpiece of the Einzbern will be surpassed. That thing we spent ten years developing, but...", Jubstacheit sank into despair again.

He originally thought Illyasviel would be the finest product of the Einzbern family.

But now, this Berserker in front of him took less than a week.

Not only mastered Einzbern's alchemy knowledge, but also innovated based on it.

It's like a 1.7-meter-tall man working hard to play basketball, only to one day meet a 2-meter-tall prodigy. A sorrow beyond words.

"Is this what a Servant is?", Jubstacheit looked at Shirou directly, "A miraculous creation that surpasses magecraft and infinitely approaches magic."

Maybe the direction was wrong from the beginning.

If, from the start, they summoned a Caster directly, would they be able to achieve the miracle of the Third Magic even without the Grail?

Suddenly, Jubstacheit said with regret, "Berserker, your design concept is almost perfect. Unfortunately, we don't have time."

"With Einzbern's current level, to make this armor would require at least ten years."

"Ten years?", Shirou had expected this, and stayed calm.

The system never does anything useless, which means, it has a way to make this armor in two months.

He tapped his phone.

'System, it's your turn again.'

Hosting time.

Shirou coldly took the design from Jubstacheit's hands.

"You just need to have people cooperate with me. I'll handle everything else."

"Such confidence, is this the magician of the Age of Gods?"

"Never heard in Greek mythology of any famous male magus who had a good relationship with Heracles. Could it be…", Jubstacheit's expression suddenly changed.

He thought and thought, and could only arrive at this possibility.

'Such foresight, such knowledge, and that thunderbolt that fell from the sky that day. Though the attributes weren't strong, maybe that's because something was sacrificed to resist Mad Enhancement.'

'Originally meant to summon Heracles, but summoned him instead?'

'In this case, maybe the thousand-year wish of the Einzbern family would be fulfilled here.'

'It must be, this Berserker is the legendary head of the Twelve Olympian Gods, the greatest god in Greek mythology, King of Gods, Zeus!'

Seeing Jubstacheit's expression grow more exaggerated, Shirou knew he had imagined something ridiculously absurd.

'Also, already thinks I am a magus from the Age of Gods? And from Greek mythology?'

'Where did that come from?'

Regardless of what Jubstacheit imagined, Shirou had anyway gained the full support of the Einzbern family.

He immediately began to act.

First, refining the metals, forging and shaping them to build the armor's frame, then constructing the magic circuits and electric circuits.

Previously, Jubstacheit said ten years, considering the complexity of material acquisition and conversion, plus compatibility with magical energy. Continuous experimentation would be needed to reach the most suitable result… and even then, just suitable, not necessarily perfect.

But the system had already taken all these steps into account. Every operational process was under its control, and each step executed to perfection.

No errors.

Fifteen days, the base frame and exterior shell of the armor were completed.

One month and ten days, the mana-powered system was completed, and Shirou saw the long-awaited armor summoner.

Five days, the final process only took five days, since for now there weren't any traits to integrate.

So only room for operation was reserved.

One month and fifteen days. The Fake Emperor Armor was fully completed.

"Berserker, this is the armor you made even though you only played with me one hour a day?", Illya held Shirou's beloved treasure, looked left and right, still a bit dissatisfied.

The belt in front of her, entirely golden, solid in texture, uniquely glossy.

Just from appearance, one could see its nobility. The core part had a slot. That was made based on Shirou's Origin, for activation.

Likewise, the transformation-use crystal wasn't a tai-chi symbol. Specifically, it could reference Shirou's Command Seals, combining with the scabbard.

The belt is the scabbard, without the crystal, to transform, he must use a small sword created by projection, a special kind of metal researched by the system.

In other words, this belt, only he could use it.

'Perfect!'

Shirou's eyes couldn't be pulled away.

"Illya, be careful, don't break it."

"What nonsense are you saying? Idiot Berserker!", Illya said with displeasure, "This is a masterpiece made with the Einzbern family's full devotion. Don't say breaking, even magic below A-rank can't damage it."

In line with the system's capabilities, everything reached A-rank.

Including this armor.

"I know, can you give me the belt first, Illya."

"No!", Illya smiled innocently and hid the belt behind her.

"Illya~", Shirou's tone finally changed slightly.

The next second, he calmed down. Not because of his absolute rationality activating, but because Illya returned the belt to him.

Shirou took the belt, Illya placed her hands behind her back, tilted her head, smiled, "Although I wanted to tease this kind of Berserker. But seeing Berserker so anxious, I'll let it go. You must make pudding for Illya later."

"Mm," Shirou nodded seriously, "After testing the armor, I'll make as much as you want."

"Then let's start, Berserker," Illya said expectantly.

She had participated in part of the armor's creation process, so naturally she wanted to see what Shirou would become in the end.

"Then let's go!", Shirou had waited too long for this moment.

He placed the summoner at his waist.

"Projection, start!"

The sword-shaped card inserted into the slot, the Emperor Armor belt rotated on its own, playing cool sound effects.

Shirou had just wanted to strike a pose and transform, but suddenly froze.

He hadn't noticed earlier, but now as he was about to shout "transform," he realized, the belt had just been completed, not only was Illya watching, but Sella, Liz, all the Einzbern homunculi, and Jubstacheit were all watching him.

For no reason, it felt so embarrassing.
