Shirou in Another World.

Volume 2: Epilogue

Heinrich watched Lunea reread a book for the fifth time.

The past two months had gone by quickly. Pein had eliminated Hanzo and taken over Amegakure. Tobi and Zetsu disappeared after retreating...

...and Shirou along with them.

When Lunea returned, Heinrich assumed Shirou would return with her. His soul was his ultimate trump card, and the sisters doubted Tobi and Zetsu's ability to beat the boy with a battlefield advantage as massive as his realm.

To their shock, he lost.

Gone, if they were to believe Lunea's words.

"H-he glowed yellow. So did everything around him." Lunea sniffed. "His soul was breaking apart in front of us. The shining land disintegrating into the rift. Shirou himself was also disappearing...his body fading into golden motes as it was sucked away."

Lunulupae was silent.

The sisters, looking at each other in disbelief.

Dimensions didn't just disappear, nor do they break apart that easily. They needed the full picture.

"May we have the full memory later? There is no way dimensions crumble that fast when in contact with the void. Dimensions are created out of nothing, and it would take more than just nothing to break the stability of one."

Eugen jumped in.

"How did he send you back? He was already gone from this plane. If he was able to, then he knew where the Realm of Man's "true" coordinates."

Something that even the best mage would struggle to find. Only those who have reached the peak of dimensional magic should've been able to find such anchors without a direct connection.

"H-he used a spell." Lunea's voice cracked while reliving the last scene on her mind.

Shirou smiling peacefully at her.

A facade.

"Excalibur."

The world glowed yellow.

"Sorry, he said what?" Heinrich reconfirmed what she heard.

"E-excalibur...he said Excalibur."

Eugen exchanged glances with her.

"Was he holding anything?"

The word Excalibur was too much a coincidence. Using the name of one of the most famous swords on the planet as a trigger for a spell, especially when the sisters knew that Shirou held the largest armory they've seen in their lives.

Lunea nodded somberly.

"Excalibur isn't a spell girl, its a legend." Jiraiya cut in.

"Why are you so interested in the history of King Arturia?"
