Chapter 198: Ouranos Concedes Defeat
The time of birth has arrived, correcting all phenomena with this.
The Noble Phantasm Shirou had just unleashed was the third Noble Phantasm of the Heroic Spirit Solomon.
It was a ring of light that announced the end of humanity. At first glance, it looked like a halo surrounding the entire planet, but in reality, it was a collection of hundreds of millions of light rays.
Each light ray had a devastating power comparable to the A-ranked Noble Phantasm, Excalibur. There was no existence on the entire planet that could surpass the heat of this Noble Phantasm.
This was because the effect of this Noble Phantasm was to transform all of human history into heat.
It was not just hundreds of millions of light beams shrouding the planet, but rather these beams were accelerated and converged to accomplish a long-term time reversal, incinerating past history, and completing the Reverse Canal / Genesis Lightyear.
The ultimate effect of such a Noble Phantasm was a perfect wishing machine capable of turning everything on the entire planet into firewood and achieving any miracle that was theoretically achievable.
If the power of the Holy Grail was one, then the effect of this Noble Phantasm was infinite.
Its effect was so immense that it could even completely subvert the history of the entire planet, create non-existent things, and distort existing things.
To unleash this Noble Phantasm, Shirou had the members of his organization secretly create magic circles all over the world.
Although the number of magic circles was not exaggerated, it was still an extremely difficult task to cover the entire world with the basic ritual in a short period of time.
But fortunately, everything was completed before the War Game began.
Faced with the fatal predicament created by the Heavenly God Ouranos's vicious Authority, Shirou chose to counter with an even more vicious method.
If your goal is to sacrifice the adventurers on the entire island to create a true god, then I will sacrifice this world and all the history of Genkai, using absolute destruction and absolute madness, to take absolute revenge on the high and mighty gods!
"Boom!"
Therefore, the moment that extremely exaggerated ring of light was created on the far side of the planet, the embryonic form of a god that had originally been entrenched on Orsa Island suddenly became weak.
This was like a mountain trying to stand shoulder to shoulder with the stars, or a stream trying to compete with the ocean for width.
An absolutely impossible comparison.
A complete crushing at the material level.
A thorough fragmentation in the conceptual domain.
In front of the ring of light that shrouded the planet, the infant god that was about to be born was as fragile as a real baby, completely unable to fight back.
"You should be able to hear me, Ouranos!"
Shirou stood at the highest point of Orsa Island.
While activating Solomon's Ten Rings to maintain the Ring of Human History that covered the sky, he declared to the Heavenly God Ouranos, who was inside Babel.
"From now on, immediately stop manipulating Hestia, and return the Divine Power and soul within Hestia.
Otherwise, I will use this Ring of Human History that shrouds the planet to ignite everything!" Shirou's voice was cold and firm. "You should be aware of it. The power contained in that ring of light in the sky will incinerate everything, destroy all matter on the planet, and even burn time and space along with it!
It will destroy everything on the entire planet, and even the planet's history will become fuel for the raging flames!
You might think that if I do this, I will also be incinerated by that ring of light, or even if I am fine, my companions will be sacrificed. But I am even more aware that if I don't stop your actions, all the adventurers on this island will become your sacrifices.
Do you think I will hesitate for even a single moment at this time, will I consider the big picture, and give up on burning the entire world?
Someone once told me that the essence of life is resistance, to burn one's everything like a brilliant illusion until the very last moment, until the curtain falls.
So, I will burn, burn everything, including everything you hope to gain from Genkai!"
Saying this, Shirou raised his fist, as if some will had erupted.
Like wings flying towards the sun.
Like the crazy act of Icarus, who would rather fall to the earth than rush to the sky.
He held his head high and raised his fist of will.
"Make your choice, Ouranos!
Make your choice!
Will you wait for me to activate the Ring of Human History and completely incinerate everything in Genkai, or will you stop your control over Hestia! I know that even if the halo is activated, you, as gods, will not die. However, if you still have ambitions for Genkai, if you still want to obtain something from Genkai, then abandon all your actions!
Otherwise, I will turn this sky, this earth, and everything in this world into an eternally burning firewood!"
Shirou's voice rang out loudly, spreading throughout the entire Orsa Island.
Although there were very few people on the island who were still able to maintain their self-awareness, some adventurers still heard Shirou's words and were deeply shocked by his madness.
And on Babel, the gods were dumbfounded by Shirou's actions.
They never thought that a human would actually use the entire Genkai as a wager, declaring that he would completely incinerate everything in Genkai to stop a Heavenly God's plan.
In this almost static silence, after a long time, Ouranos looked up after a prolonged silence.
He seemed to be very troubled by the existence of the man, Emiya Shirou, and also deeply shocked by his courage and unyielding attitude.
After a long silence, he slowly spoke to the empty space: "Fels, stop the operation of the Divine Power core. It's all over."
"But Ouranos!!!"
Fels, who was far away on Orsa Island, seemed a little unable to accept Ouranos's words.
He tried to say something.
But Ouranos's attitude was clearly unshakable.
The old Heavenly God spoke in a frank tone:
"There are no 'buts.' We have lost. Although it is a pity that the thousand-year plan has completely failed, if we are still unwilling to accept the facts now, it would be a bit too disgraceful."
With that, Ouranos slowly walked to the top of Babel, and slowly raised his hands.
In the sky, the huge brand slowly dissipated.
That seemed to be Ouranos erasing his own Authority.
In an instant, the blazing flames entwining Orsa Island almost instantly dissipated. The souls of all the adventurers also returned to their respective bodies, as if nothing had ever happened.
Both the sky-high flames and the 'Giant' made of great feats disappeared.
