《Infinite Swordsman and His Cafe》Chapter 33: The Greater Grail
Advertisement
Kojiro looked at the giant building in front of him. This is Ryuudou Temple, a place where he lived in this universe. He walks inside his little house and begins to disassemble all his devices and place them inside his pocket dimension. After taking all of them, Kojiro then flies up to the sky and points his gun at the Temple before pressing the trigger.
The previously dark sky began to shine in rainbow color as his cannon shot a rainbow laser beam at the building. Kojiro sees a barrier appear to hold his cannon attack. However, as the laser beam hit the barrier, it immediately destroyed because of the firepower his weapon had.
He saw his attack hit the building, and coming from the ground of the building appeared a black mist that tried to hold his attack, but it failed. He knows the reason why Angra Mainyu cannot hold even a little bit of his attack. The reason is that he doesn't have enough time to manifest his physical form or at least manifest something physical that is strong enough to hold his attack for a second.
When the laser beam punches through the ground, he suddenly feels another magic spike beside Angra Mainyu trying to survive his attack. He looks to his side and sees a pillar of black light appear from the forest, where Einzbern castle is located. He doesn't know what happened there, but he hopes Zelretch can solve that problem while he tries to destroy this annoying Greater Grail.
While he fueled the attack, Kojiro saw a shadow coming from the ground of Ryuudou Temple and coming toward him.
"I hope you have a plan, Zelretch. I don't want to kill a married woman that is possessed by Avenger."
After saying that, Kojiro creates a run in the air with his other hand while the other one holding the gun and coming from the rune is a bunch of fireballs that launch itself to the wraith.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Zelretch appears in the garden of Einzbern castle. He slowly but surely walks to the entrance of the castle, and when he arrives in front of the gate, he touches it and makes it explode before walking inside the castle. As he steps his feet inside the castle, he can feel foul magic around the castle. He knows that Angra Mainyu tries to transfer his consciousness to the vessel of the Grail.
He quickly goes to the source of the foul magic and sees Irisviel von Einzbern screaming in pain while Saber fights a wraith with her sword. He knows that Saber can win this fight, but it will take a while because their location is not large enough for her to maneuver while the wraith can go through a solid wall.
He throws a jewel at the wraith and activates its effect, and suddenly the jewel shines brightly as the wraith gets killed by the power of holy light. He immediately takes out his sword and stabs Irisviel with it and pumps it with a Kaleidoscope.
As he stabs her, the pillar made of a black aura gets consumed by his magic. Slowly the blacklight begins to disappear. Seeing there is no more presence of Holy Grail inside Irisviel, Zelretch begins to heal her.
Zelretch looks at the unconscious body of Irisviel while Saber holds her 'master' while pointing her sword at him.
"My work here is done."
He ignores Saber, pointing her sword at him and waves his hand as he suddenly disappears from Einzbern castle.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kojiro waves his hand and kills the last wraith that tries to kill him and sees that his laser beam successfully destroys whatever barrier Angra Mainyu created to defend himself. He then pushes more mana into the weapon and creates a bigger laser. A few seconds later, he sees an explosion happening under his feet; he immediately stops his weapon and sees a blob of black goo explode.

He slowly descended to the ground and activated his magic senses. After confirming that there is no more Angra Mainyu, Kojiro nodded and prepared to leave. However, before he can leave, Zelretch appears in front of him.
"Oh, good, you are done."
"What are you doing here?"
"Making sure that Angra Mainyu will never escape."
"So you purge the remains of Holy Grail from Irisviel, huh?"
"Yup, Now come on, let's not make Sakura worried."
Zelretch opens a portal to Clock Tower, and once again, as they walk through the portal, Kojiro sees people panic about something.
"Kojiro, please go to my Workshop. I will handle this."
He looks at Zelretch for a moment because he doesn't know if this old vampire is serious or not. Nonetheless, Kojiro nodded at him and walked to the Workshop.
When he opens up the door, he sees Gaia playing with Sakura and Fou, while Alaya is sitting on the couch with someone familiar to him, serving her some tea and cake. He knows who the man is serving her, the man in front of him is EMIYA or rather known as Emiya Shirou. When he thinks about that name, he can feel EMIYA look at him with raised eyebrows.
As he walks to the couch, Alaya says.
"Do you want some tea?"
"Sure"
After EMIYA poured some tea in his cup, Kojiro took a sip and widened his eyes. He doesn't know how, but somehow, EMIYA can create a tea that surpasses him in taste.
"How is it? Delicious right?!? Imagine what EMIYA here can do with his skill to make some ice cream. SO~ Do you want to join my force? I can order EMIYA here to make as much ice cream as you like~."
He can see EMIYA look at him in pity as Alaya offers him to join her counterforce once again. He looked at Alaya and smiled a little before saying.
"I'm sorry, but the answer is no"
"Mou~."
He continues to drink his tea while Sakura, who is holding Fou in her hand and then sits down on his lap. Gaia also follows Sakura and sits down next to him while she looks at him in pleading eyes. He sighs a little before giving her another brownie.
"You know you can ask EMIYA over there to make you some snacks, right?"
"No, Alaya Meanie"
"What?"
He looked at Alaya with one eyebrow raised.
"What? I don't want my beloved counter force to serve her. Hmph"
He sighs a little before continuing to enjoy his night with his tea.
A few minutes later, he sees the door is open, and coming from the door is Zelretch that has a massive grin on his face.
"What did you do this time?"
"I made the vice-director paperwork doubled!"
He sighs at that little bit of information and says.
"Goddammit Zelretch"

Fate Overcharge (Stalled)
Rin Tohsaka, the young genious magus who, using the power of the holy grail, built an empire spanning the whole world, decides to use the power of the second sorcery to expand her empire to other realms and... Ehm, sorry, wrong story. Err, alright, starting again... Rin Tohsaka is the current head of the Tohsaka family and a likely master in the upcoming fifth grail war. She doesn't have a wish she wants granted, but she will fight to win. For if there is a battle to be fought, could a Tohsaka settle for any less than a complete victory? This is a fan fiction for the Fate/StayNight and an alternative rendition of the fifth grail war that introduces new characters, and shows never before seen sides of the old ones. Since this is a fan fiction, knowledge of the original works is needed to understand it. Watching stay/night or zero should be sufficient, but reading both works along with Hollow Ataraxia is recommended for not missing any details. (I won't assume the readers have read Hollow A.) - Warning: Tagged Mature(+15) mainly for violence and strong language. Nothing graphic, and still a lot milder than the original Visual Novel - Note1: I am trying to improve so constructive critisizm and random comments are welcome. Note2: Be warned! Update rate will likely be slow. How slow, I can't say. Note3: I don't consider any side works in the franchise as cannon. So if, for some reason, Nero is summoned, do not riot when he turns out to be a burly, hairy caster. (That won't happen!)

Life in Zora's Domain
An AU about Mipha's and Link's life together post Calamity. I tried to have some fun with this story, taking it in different directions, developing Mipha's and Link's family, making up some adventures, and creating some connections to other Zelda stories. But the main theme is Mipha's and Link's love for each other and building a happy life together. I'm sure I don't always succeed, but I try to keep the story light hearted and generally opt for happy outcomes.The first 2 chapters now incorporate the prequel stories 'His Future is in the Past' and 'Beginning Life in Zora's Domain', so this AU is self-contained in one story. If you've already read the prequels just jump to Chapter 1 - Studying. Cover art where available is by Nurple(twitter dot com/nurpleynurple) and used by permission. Spoiler Warning: This story has spoilers! On the other hand, if you haven't played the game this story won't make sense. This writing is a work of fan fiction using characters and events from the world of The Legend of Zelda TM: Breath of the Wild, which is owned and copyrighted by Nintendo. I do not claim any ownership of the world or its characters. It is a work of my imagination and is for entertainment only. It is not part of the official Nintendo storyline.
