Chapter 40 - Denial of Nothingness

"You old troll!" Archer shouted with angry expression on his faces. "What are you doing, by suddenly appear in here!"

"What's wrong with me, appear in front of you Archer?" Asked Zelretch with a teasing grin on his faces. " Are there is a law that forbid me, to be here?"

"There is no way an old troll like you will just suddenly appear in front of me or the younger me without any purpose!" Archer said still with a faces that full of anger and suspiciousness. "Just spit it out! What are you want to do with me or my younger self!"

'Hey, Archer. Are he is the wizard of the Kaleidoscope Zelretch that was helping both of us and send us to the past to fix the result of the Holy Grail War?' Asked Shirou to the 'Archer' in his 'left' arm.

'Yeah, he is the most powerful sorcerer in the world that have total control of one of the true magic the Kaleidoscope,' Archer replied. 'So don't ever try to fight him at all except if you have a power that atleast on par with Gilgamesh!'

"Sigh Archer you are always feel suspicious when you meet with me," Zelretch sighing he feel really disappointed with Archer reaction. Because the reaction of the Counter Guardian was not like what he want at all. "Okay then what I want to tell you is, that's why I'm here, there will be something different that happen if you use your projection Magecraft. If you don't believe me, please trying it by yourself."

Archer is still feel skeptical and don't believe by what Zelretch said, but not with Shirou. Even thought Shirou didn't knew Zelretch at all, he can tell that the old man didn't have any ill intention at all in his words and action. Beside that Zelretch already helping him before by sending him to the past and giving him a Nano Machines that helping him to heal his wound so there is nothing wrong for him to not to try what the old man said.

Shirou then doing a simple projection magic, by make a copy of a fork. And beyond what he can imagine, he cannot feel a rejection at all when he doing the projection. Shirou can feel that the fork on his right hand was a real thing and not a mere copy like he always made.

"You gotta be kidding me!" Shirou said with a shock expression on his faces. "The forks that I just made, was a real one not a mere copy that was made from a magical energy! What the old man said was right, there is something different with my projection magic! How this is possible!"

Archer who he heard Shirou words, at first didn't believe to what his past self says. But when he doing a structural analysis to the fork in Shirou hand, he feel shock too. Because the result of the Structural Analysis was telling him that the forks was one hundred percent real...

"That was because you are granted with the power of True Magic, Emiya Shirou," Zelretch said with a serious expression on his faces. "I think the God Himself are granting you that gifts when I send you to the past or more correctly to this new timeline. And that's why as long as Archer Emiya also exist in this timeline he also can use the same True Magic."

"T-True Magic? What kind of True Magic that was given to my past self to the point he can use a Projection Magic without the rejection from Gaia?" Archer Asked in confusion. "And why did the True Magic only active today even though my past self already having it for a while."

"You already live for very long time but you didn't knew about 'Denial of Nothingness?' The first of the True Magic to make anything expect for a soul or a living being. You are very pathetic Archer," Zelretch said while mocking Archer.

"Oh shut up! The name of the first True Magic already been lost for a very long time! So how can I know about that name!" Archer shouted in angry tone. "And please answer my second question that you hasn't answered!"

"Sigh, it need time for your past self body to adapted to Denial of Nothingness that's why he can only using that True Magic today," Zelretch explaining. "That's the reason why did I appear in front of you two today. To tell you about the True Magic. "

"So are a True Magic is really cannot be restricted by Gaia?" Asked Shirou to Zelretch. "That's why the simple forks that I made hasn't gone, because it was real and not a mere copy like I usually made using Projection Magic."

"Yeah that was true, the Denial of Nothingness can make you to made almost anything except for soul and a living being without worrying the restriction of Gaia," Zelretch replied. "A magic that really suit you very much, because the way you fighting plus the Reality Marble inside your soul that full of sword. Denial of Nothingness also making you a human photocopy."

"Sigh, with a True Magic in our disposal we can end the current Holy Grail War without any issue," Archer said while touching his forehead. "Even though I also can use the True Magic, but because I was a Servant and not a real human. The thing that I can make using Denial of Nothingness is only a thing inside my Reality Marble while you my past self. You can make more, a magic circuit to make your prana bigger, or even a food and electronic devices."

"Making a magic circuit to make my prana reserve bigger? Ah that was a good idea, I will try it later. The thing that I want to know is are the Denial of Nothingness can be used to make a divine construct or not?" Asked Shirou.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"The Denial of Nothingness was more than enough to make a divine construct even though I didn't know the result will be perfect or not. Because there was never a record that the user of Denial of Nothingness before you making the Denial of Nothingness even though in theory is possible to make divine construct by using the first true magic," Zelretch replied. "Ah, I really forget about one more thing that I want to give to you."

Zelretch then taking out something from his coat. And the thing he was taken out was a golden key-shaped sword. And in an instant both Archer and Shirou can recognize what that golden key is because of their Structural Analysis.

"Tha-That was Key of King's Law, Bab-ilu the key that connects to the treasury that Gilgamesh have or more correctly that was a key to acces the deepest part of the Gate of Babylon the information that I got from the Structural Analysis said that key can only be used by Gilgamesh. How you can get that key in your hand, Zelretch!"

Archer said with a shocked expression on his faces.

"Well Gilgamesh already throwing this key in the past so no one except for him can access his treasury," Zelretch replied. "What he didn't knew is using the knowledge that I get from the Kaleidoscope, I knew where he throw this key. And because of that I can pick this key and modified it a bit by using the help of my friend name Masaki Ten*hi who are a near omnipotent administrator in different dimension. So right now only Emiya Shirou that send to the past that can use this key so that he can have access to a weapon and wealth inside the Gate of Babylon."

"Are you want to make me a cheat character like isekai novel protagonist? By giving me that key!?" Shirou said while his eyebrows was twitching. "What I want was a normal life with all the person that important to me! Not to be a cheat character!"

"Sadly you need to be a cheat character to face a calamity that you will faces in the future," Zelretch said with a sigh. "You have a chaotic fate, Emiya Shirou. Your Fate is always night and didn't have a sun that bright inside of it so for you to have a peaceful future became a cheat character was something that you have to achieve no matter what."

After saying that Zelretch was disappear in front of Shirou and Archer and leaving behind the golden key that was dropping to the ground right after Zelretch was disappear.

"That damn old troll always try to be a mysterious everytime he was left!" Archer said in anger.

When Archer was mad Shirou then pick up the golden key. And right after he touch the key he can feel his body is jolted and then a lot of knowledge that he didn't know was going inside his head....
