Shirou POV:

We stared at one another for a moment until Archer spoke breaking the tension "still trying to be a hero Emiya Shirou," the way he said it made it seem like it wasn't a question but more so like a statement.

He begins to walk forward his eyes narrowed in contempt "tch you already tried being a hero and still you attempt to do so again you may have not become a counter guardian or killed the few to save the many like I have but you've already experienced the suffering that comes with being a hero!" Archer's tone of voice was filled with rage and bitterness as he stops a few steps from me.

I look at him in the eye for a moment "you were right Archer you always were I spent so long trying to deny that there was nothing wrong with being a hero of justice trying to save everyone especially during the holy grail where I lost everything and, in the end, when I finally had power to start saving people, I didn't feel a single thing that's why....th-thats wh-why I WILL BECOME A HERO CAPABLE OF ALWAYS SAVING HIS LOVED ONES," I explained yelling near the end.

Archer closes his eyes and then reopened them "I see...then allow me to test this resolve of yours's trace," he said with a firm tone when activating the first part of our aria. Both Kanshou and Bakuya appeared in his hands as he charges forward.

"on!" I finished quickly summoning forth my own married twin blades with a twirl and slammed them forward to intercept Archer's attack.

I lunged forward with a strong kick to his stomach slamming Archer back I continue my assault not giving him time to recover and replaced the married blades with a black bow rapidly I started shooting arrows in his direction.

He landed down Kanshou and Bakuya back into his own grip he slashes through each arrow making me grit my teeth I retraced my own married blades back into existence continuing forward with our clash.

"You say that you will be a hero capable of saving you're loved ones ha what big fucking joke you already let everyone you loved die once because of weakness even now how could you ever hope possibly save someone you love in this new world. Just face it your mere existence as EMIYA SHIROU! is a curse!" Archer snarled shattering my blades.

I cursed projecting a new pair of twin blades to clash with once again "don't fuck with me you BASTARD!!" I shouted moving to stab him with Kanshou only to be blocked effortlessly by his own Bakuya he flicked his arm up causing me to stagger back.

My arms were starting to get sore as I go in for a slash only for him to dodge it like it was nothing even though I should be able to match him I couldn't he was simply to experienced.
