"Guilty, as charged." Shirou admitted, his features tense as Issei began charging up to attack Kokabiel despite the others protests "Though unfortunately, there's a limit to the type of sword I can Trace on my own."

However, as he had said countless times before, Emiya Shirou was a poor example of a Magus, and would likely never advance beyond the rank of Third-Rate Apprentice. This was not entirely the fault of his lack of training, degraded circuits or the limitations of his Magecraft, but also because he lacked the proper mind-set to ...
