Chapter 245 - Chapter 247: Listen, Heroic Spirits Gathered in This Realm

Cleanly and efficiently, Mash successfully defeated the Demon God Pillar that Lev had transformed into.

Having gone through the tempering of seven Singularities, Mash could be said to have grown a great deal. Now, a single Demon God Pillar...

Was no longer a major threat in front of her!

Just as Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash were about to celebrate, Demon God Flauros appeared again. He laughed wildly, "Useless! No matter what you do, it's useless! Hahaha! Hahahaha! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!"

Yes, he appeared again, the very instant he was defeated.

Mash and Fujimaru Ritsuka showed expressions of disbelief. Why was it like this?

"How is it possible..." Mash looked at the resurrected Lev, her face showing an expression of disbelief. She said in great surprise, "The Demon God Pillar has appeared again! It's neither restoration nor recovery!"

"Just now, a new Flauros was born!!!!!"

"Is there no end to it?!" Fujimaru Ritsuka was also very shocked. Why would a defeated Demon God Pillar appear again? Then she looked at the ground, as if realizing something, and continued, "Could it be that this ground is all!!!!"

"Waaaaahhh!!!"

"It's an impact from the outside!" a staff member in the Control Room hurriedly said. "The damage rate to the Second Offensive Theory has exceeded 60%!"

Another staff member also added hurriedly, "The Northern Observation Room has fallen! Excessive pressure confirmed on the observatory roof!"

"Five minutes until collapse! If the roof is destroyed, we won't be able to maintain the Control Room's Alibi! Chaldea will fall into a bubble state and be absorbed by the Temple of Time!!"

Another staff member said quickly, "Pseudo-spirit particle calculation precision has exceeded the perceptible range!!!! The strength of the Offensive Theory is decreasing!!"

Hearing this, Dr. Roman made a decisive call: "Cut all power supply within the facility except for the central area! Direct all power from the Reactor Core to the Offensive Theory and Chaldeas!!"

"We must protect the Control Room no matter what! Leonardo, what about the resources stockpiled in your workshop?!"

At this moment, Da Vinci was in her magical workshop. Hearing Dr. Roman's voice, she immediately replied, "They're being transferred to the supercomputer for Spirit particle calculation. I'll find a way to handle the rest with my private funds!"

"But this is just a drop in the bucket! Romani!! The ones attacking Chaldea are the Demon God Pillars!!!"

"Six, seven, eight—there are eight Demon God Pillars entangling Chaldea from the outside!!!"

"Even if I go out to deal with them, even with the determination to die with them, I don't know if I could take down even one!!!"

"This won't solve the fundamental problem at all! We can only completely eliminate the Singularity before Chaldea collapses!!!!"

Da Vinci's voice came through the communication device on Fujimaru Ritsuka. Flauros, who had transformed into a Demon God Pillar, couldn't help but laugh out loud upon hearing this.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!"

Flauros looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka—or rather, at Dr. Roman and Da Vinci back at Chaldea—and laughed loudly, "It's impossible! It's impossible, everyone!!!"

"I am immortal, and we are infinite, for everything in this space is us!!!"

"Manifest, manifest!!! My brethren, show your forms clearly!!!"

As those words fell, countless unsettling Demon God Pillars surged from the ground.

"Senpai!" Mash grabbed Fujimaru Ritsuka's hand. They stepped onto stones suspended in mid-air, avoiding the Demon God Pillars surging from the ground.

At that moment, lightning flashed in the sky, illuminating the area and allowing Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash to see the Demon God Pillars surrounding them like vines in a jungle.

"More Demon God Pillars?!" Mash looked at the Demon God Pillars below with a look of surprise, but soon, as if she had discovered something, she shouted, "No, this is..."

"That's right!"

As if guessing what Mash was about to say, Flauros responded loudly, "We are the seventy-two demon gods! Kill me?! What would that even mean! We are always the seventy-two demon gods!"

"As long as this land and the Throne remain, we shall never be destroyed! If you want to kill me, you must first slaughter all seventy-two of our brethren!"

"But where would you get such firepower and military force! Such existences no longer remain on this earth!"

"You haven't cornered us; you've jumped into a certain grave of your own accord!!"

While Flauros was speaking, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash had already landed from mid-air. Their expressions were quite grim, as the current situation was extremely dire.

The Demon God Pillars had them trapped; the situation was very bad.

Both for Chaldea and for Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Flauros looked down at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash nearby and continued to laugh, "Hahahaha, this is what they call a moth to a flame! You certainly worked hard to rush over here so spiritedly!!!"

"I can't get in touch with Chaldea..." Mash realized at this point that she couldn't contact Chaldea.

Chaldea must be in unimaginable trouble right now. Mash looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and asked, "Senpai, what should we do?!"

"No... it's not over yet!" Fujimaru Ritsuka stared at Flauros. There was no fear in her eyes; even in such a desperate situation, she didn't show the slightest bit of fear.

"I misjudged you." At this point, Flauros stopped mocking Fujimaru Ritsuka and said with a hint of admiration, "I didn't expect you to still have the spirit to glare so fiercely at your enemy (me)."

"But that's enough. I fully understand your persistence, but the days when such methods worked are over."

"The last Master, the last human, Fujimaru Ritsuka."

"We wish to express our heartfelt thanks to you."

A trace of doubt and confusion flashed in Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash's eyes. They didn't know what Flauros was planning.

Why was he thanking her (Senpai)?

"Because you brought us the greatest amusement." Flauros's admiring tone vanished, replaced by a slightly comical voice. "Laughing off the resistance in the First Singularity."

"Laughing off the passion in the Second Singularity."

"Laughing off the adventure in the Third Singularity."

"Laughing off the quest in the Fourth Singularity."

"Laughing off the march in the Fifth Singularity."

"Laughing off the survival in Sixth Singularity."

"And for Seventh Singularity..."

Speaking of this, Flauros fell silent for a moment, his voice becoming somewhat subtle. "Ah, that wasn't quite so pleasant."

"That was a third-rate farce that wasn't funny at all. Let's just forget about the Seventh."

With that, Flauros's voice became cheerful again, tinged with mockery. "In any case! Your battles were truly delightful! Especially their utter pointlessness."

"The futility of having fought this far, the misery of fighting so desperately only to end up with nothing!"

"We hold this in high regard! Thank you, and goodbye!!!"

"Along with Chaldea, let your journey end here!"

"Haha, hahaha!!! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!"

Vroom!! Rumble—!!!!

Countless lasers shot in from all directions. Mash was some distance away from Fujimaru Ritsuka at this point. She intended to raise her shield to protect Fujimaru Ritsuka, but in the end, she seemed to be a step too slow.

"Senpai!!!!" Mash's voice rang out, full of worry.

"Mash!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka's vision turned blood-red. In that moment, she seemed to lose consciousness, falling into an unimaginable dark space.

"..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka silently clenched her fists, her heart filled with resentment. After all, they had come this far; why was it so easy to fail?

But facing such an overwhelming gap, even Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but feel a hint of despair.

"As expected... is it still no good?"

In Fujimaru Ritsuka's heart, these words appeared on the screen, as if telling everyone how desperate she was at this moment.

With Chaldea out of contact, the only unit that could be called a fighting force was Mash alone.

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Chaldea seemed to have truly reached the end, about to face the darkest of conclusions.

A conclusion called failure.

The entire screen went dark because of this.

Outside the video.

Demon Slayer World.

"Don't lose!!!!! Don't lose to them!!!!!!" Tanjiro shouted excitedly. "Fujimaru Ritsuka!! Mash!!! Your journey hasn't reached its true end yet."

"Haven't you defeated these guys before?! Please don't give up like this."

Tanjiro was an emotional young man; he didn't want Mash, Fujimaru Ritsuka, and Chaldea to be ended by these so-called Demon God Pillars.

The end of their journey isn't here! Their true destination is when they restore human history after defeating Solomon, the King of Mages!!!!

"No, it's no use. The gap in combat power is too large."

Compared to the emotional Tanjiro, Agatsuma Zenitsu was much calmer. Although calm, a look of despair still appeared on his face; the gap in combat power between the two sides was simply too great.

That Lev just said it too—he isn't alone. Even if he's killed, they are immortal beings.

And besides him, there are seventy-one other Demon God Pillars. That number... and that strength... it's too hopeless, truly too hopeless.

This is almost like making Tanjiro face seventy-two Twelve Moons who keep resurrecting.

A battle that is absolutely impossible to win, regardless of perseverance or will; it is a battle that truly requires powerful reinforcements.

Relying on Mash alone, even if the enemy stood there and let her kill them, victory would be impossible. That's a certainty.

"Yeah, the gap in combat power is too large."

At that moment, a voice came from behind them, causing Tanjiro and Agatsuma Zenitsu to look back. They found that the Flame Hashira Kyojuro Rengoku, who had been quite severely injured, was now standing behind them.

"Yo, I was planning to come out and get some sun." Kyojuro Rengoku gave a heartwarming smile as he looked at Tanjiro and Agatsuma Zenitsu. "After all, I can't stay in bed forever. Besides, Oyakata-sama has a mission for me, though I have to wait until my injuries are mostly healed before I can head out."

"Since you're watching the video, I'll join your conversation if you don't mind."

Saying that, Kyojuro Rengoku sat down. He looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash in the video and smiled. "Although the gap in power is large, I believe a miracle will happen."

"A miracle?" Zenitsu looked at Kyojuro Rengoku, momentarily at a loss for how to even begin rebutting. No matter how you looked at it, this was a dead end, right?

"Wait."

But soon, Zenitsu seemed to remember something. He looked at Kyojuro Rengoku and said hurriedly, "Is it Dr. Roman's trump card?!"

This was the only thing Zenitsu could think of now. Dr. Roman had been hiding some kind of trump card; that card must be the only hope for solving the current predicament.

"While I think it's possible, it probably isn't..." Tanjiro felt that the person who would resolve the situation was unlikely to be Dr. Roman.

Because no matter how you looked at it, this current situation wasn't something one person could solve!!!!

"Indeed, I don't think it's impossible either!"

Kyojuro Rengoku said with great vigor, "Because miracles aren't that cheap! A so-called miracle is something obtained through continuous effort!!!"

"I believe a miracle will descend, but as for when it will appear, I have no idea!"

Kyojuro Rengoku shouted with immense spirit, but his words left Zenitsu's face written all over with speechlessness.

You don't know, yet you shout it with such spirit? Even if you're a Hashira, you can't be like this.

Go read the detective comments in the comment section!!!!

Those guys said it's a dead end in every sense of the word. No matter how you deduce it, rescue seems impossible.

Unless... a large group of Heroic Spirits descends. But how is that possible? This is someone else's territory.

Zenitsu sighed. Although he didn't want to admit it, if Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash really lost here, it might be considered a plot twist.

Working so hard for so long only to end in failure—while it counts as a twist, it's a bit too frustrating.

If the god-tier twist was really this, Zenitsu absolutely wouldn't be able to accept it.

Thinking this, Zenitsu sighed inwardly and continued watching the video.

Detective Conan World.

"..."

Kudo Shinichi was silent. He was no longer analyzing the Human Order Incineration case because not just him, but likely detectives and wise men from other worlds as well, were completely captivated by the video.

What a despair-inducing scene this was.

The appearance of the Demon God Pillars and the scene where Fujimaru Ritsuka was engulfed by the energy beam were truly despairing.

An absolute gap in combat power; the strengths of the two sides were not equal at all. Chaldea was even desperately resisting the invasion of the Demon God Pillars.

This wasn't an incident that could be solved with wisdom; it had to be resolved with "force."

Thinking of this, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but think of the Bartitsu that Holmes had learned. Sometimes, it seemed that solving a case couldn't resolve everything.

So, Holmes learned Bartitsu probably to make those criminals listen to him and to forcibly "calm down" those heinous criminals who tried to resist.

And for some reason, the figure of his childhood friend, Ran Mouri, appeared in Shinichi's mind.

Her karate was also very impressive; should he learn from her when he had the time?

For some reason, Kudo Shinichi felt that he really did need to learn some self-defense.

Although his dad had taught him many things in Hawaii, you can never have too many skills; there was no harm in learning a bit more.

"Sigh! Focus!"

Kudo Shinichi patted his face, forced his attention onto the video, and began to think.

Facing this predicament, what method could Chaldea possibly have to resolve it?

Mash activating her Noble Phantasm? No... if it's for defense, how long could she hold out?

She might be able to protect Fujimaru Ritsuka, but she definitely couldn't protect Chaldea. Plus, given the current situation, it's not the time for defense at all!!!!

That Lev had also said it.

"Our King is a little tied up; after all, in a few more hours, the final calculations will be complete."

In a few more hours, the plan of Solomon, the King of Mages, would be complete. As for what that plan was, Kudo Shinichi was not entirely sure.

Because at this point, the opponent's plan was likely not just Human Order Incineration at all; Human Order Incineration was merely one link in the plan.

The opponent had an even grander plan. As for what that plan was, one could tell from the memories imprinted in this space: he seemed to want to create a brand-New World, a perfect world without strife and famine, without discrimination and prejudice.

Setting aside whether he could actually create that world, judging from the intelligence already available, the opponent was heading straight toward that goal.

And... this goal was nearing completion, which meant that Chaldea could be considered as having lost for sure.

"Is there really still hope? Is there really still a chance of winning?"

At this moment, Kudo Shinichi could only hope for a miracle to happen. Now, Chaldea had been driven into a desperate situation.

Unable to advance, unable to retreat, only able to wait for death on the spot—how despairing this was.

And it was not just him who felt despair; Fujimaru Ritsuka, who had been striving forward in the video without stopping for a single moment, could not come up with any tactics to resolve this predicament given the current situation.

In fact, it was not just Kudo Shinichi who was thinking about this; the majority of people watching this video were all thinking about this question.

Facing such a predicament and such a despairing enemy, was there really still hope?

And Lev was right...

"As long as this earth and the Throne remain, we will never be destroyed! If you want to kill me, you must first kill all seventy-two of our brethren!"

"But where would you find such firepower and military force! Such existences no longer remain on this earth!"

This earth, destroyed by Human Order Incineration, no longer had the firepower or military force to contend with the seventy-two demon gods.

Just when everyone was feeling quite desperate, a familiar, gentle female voice rang out.

In the video.

"No, calling it meaningless is the true statement. For you, isn't giving up a bit too fast?"

A familiar, gentle female voice rang out beside Fujimaru Ritsuka's ear, and accompanied by a flash of white light, the darkness was dispersed.

The female voice continued, "Your battle is a long journey tracing back through human history, but you should never have felt pessimistic about it."

"Because countless encounters are waiting for you."

"Even if everything on this planet were to turn into a battlefield for a Holy Grail War."

"Even if everything on this earth were to turn into long-lost ruins."

"Even if countless strong enemies stood at the end of the road."

"You have never given up, gazing at the sky, declaring that you will never leave the ending in the hands of others."

"Now, all of this remains unchanged. Come! Let the battle begin! Master!!!!"

"This is the story of you and us, of taking back the future."

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka's brain seemed to have frozen. She stared blankly at the figure that had appeared in front of her, as well as that flag, and for a moment, she actually didn't know what to say.

Because the scene before her eyes was simply too magical.

It wasn't just Fujimaru Ritsuka; even Mash, who had rushed over, had a look of surprise and joy in her eyes.

"Guaaaaah!!!"

At this moment, Flauros seemed to suffer some kind of powerful attack, and in just a few seconds, he was destroyed dozens of times!!!

"What, what was that just now?!" Flauros's voice also revealed shock and disbelief, saying, "Why hasn't Fujimaru Ritsuka disappeared?! Why does Chaldea still remain here?!"

"Why!! Why is our body beginning to collapse?!!"

Leaving behind these words, Flauros disappeared again; he had suffered another inexplicable attack.

At this time, Chaldea also made contact with Fujimaru Ritsuka, and Dr. Roman was quite surprised as he said, "Demon God Pillar, all eight pillars destroyed. It was a success. As expected of Da Vinci, that's amazing!!"

"But what kind of trump card was used, anyway! If you had such a dangerous secret weapon, I really wish you would report it to me."

Obviously, Dr. Roman was also very surprised that Da Vinci could destroy eight Demon God Pillars in one go, thinking that she had secretly researched some terrifying weapon.

"No!" Da Vinci's voice also came through at this moment. Her voice was equally incredulous as she said, "That wasn't me just now; that was..."

"Hmm..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked up at the flag in front, that holy flag imprinted with a fleur-de-lis, and couldn't help but smile as she said, "That was..."

That mysterious female voice rang out again.

"Since the world of primates was determined, it has flourished for thousands of years."

"The Age of Gods ended, and humanity, having experienced the Gregorian calendar, became the most prosperous species on earth."

"We are the existences that determine the future of the stars and carve inscriptions upon them."

"For this, we have nurtured much knowledge, created many resources, and circulated many lives."

"The principle that makes humanity more enduring, more resolute, and more prosperous and strong—the navigational chart of humanity!"

"In the world of Magecraft, this is called human history. They, Chaldea, regard it as their highest mission and have been striving to protect it."

The scene shifted to Fujimaru Ritsuka. At this moment, Dr. Roman also showed an expression of surprise and joy and hurriedly said, "Is this a dream?! Or is the measuring instrument malfunctioning?! Summoning rituals are being activated one after another throughout the Singularity!!"

"Without a catalyst or a summoner, it has activated spontaneously! Relying solely on the thin thread of a bond once forged!!!"

"saint graph reaction! Ten, twenty, thirty, and it's still increasing!!!! Fujimaru Ritsuka!! This is!!!!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled. She stood up, looked at the flag guarding in front of her, and said, "Everyone has come."

Elsewhere, the Demon God Pillars also felt immense pressure at this moment.

Demon God Baal reported, "Eastern terminal nerve, burning. Enemy Servants are still increasing."

The Demon God Gusion also continued, "Western autonomic nerve, damaged. Enemy Servants confirmed to be twenty-four."

The Demon God Ose said very seriously, "Not worth mentioning. No matter how many gather, they are merely extensions of humanity."

"They are not a collective like us, but existences that can only survive alone and fight alone."

"Annihilate, sweep away, eliminate! Mere Servants are simply no match for us!!!"

"The reason that will lead to the failure of us, the seventy-two demon gods..."

The Demon God Ose's words were not yet finished.

Demon God Baal continued to report, "Eastern terminal nerve, destroyed. The first to eighth pillars cannot maintain normal values."

The Demon God Gusion also continued to report, "Western autonomic nerve, destroyed. The twenty-sixth to thirty-third pillars cannot maintain normal values."

Another Demon God Pillar appeared. He was called Demon God Raum, and he calmly said, "Left and right basal bone structures, damaged. I propose leaving this spatial domain."

As soon as the words fell, Demon God Raum also disappeared.

"What is going on?" Demon God Ose was shocked. He said in disbelief, "Why are we being suppressed?! Why would humans, who refuse to understand each other, cooperate with one another..."

A mysterious female voice rang out again. As if responding to the Demon God's words, she replied.

"Yes, we are indeed lives bound by selfish desires."

"Even having become Heroic Spirits, this has not changed. No, it is precisely because we are Heroic Spirits that we will not distort our own beliefs."

"However! There are still humans who believe in us."

"Even after witnessing numerous Heroic Spirits and numerous conflicts, they still firmly believe that we are 'heroes'."

"If we cannot respond to this trust, respond to this call, how can we call ourselves Heroic Spirits!!!!"

"Lord, please permit me, once again, to fight for the salvation of the nation."

"No, to fight for Deliverance, let me wave this flag!"

As this sentence fell, that figure finally solidified. She was none other than Saint Jeanne d'Arc, who had forged a bond with Fujimaru Ritsuka in the first Singularity.

She held the holy flag imprinted with a fleur-de-lis and stood in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka; it was she who had blocked that violent magical energy impact aimed at Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"Clang!"

Jeanne d'Arc thrust the flag in her hand into the ground, stood with her back to Fujimaru Ritsuka, and declared loudly, "Listen, you Heroic Spirits gathered in this domain, each a match for a thousand, unstoppable!"

"Even if you were originally incompatible enemies, even if you were originally people from different eras with no intersection, please entrust your backs to each other now!"

"Not to stop Human Order Incineration, but to open a path forward for our contractor!"

"My true name is Jeanne d'Arc! In the name of the Lord! I shall become your solid shield!"

As Jeanne d'Arc's words fell, countless blue meteors streaked across the sky, falling toward various places.

At this moment, the light of the meteors was reflected in the eyes of Mash and Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Those were rays of light called hope. At the most despairing moment, they appeared!

At this moment, Jeanne d'Arc waved the flag in her hand, and golden light illuminated everything around. Dozens of meteors fell beside her, turning into characters that Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash had once been familiar with.

"That is..." However, at this moment, Mash showed a surprised expression. Her gaze was still fixed on the meteors streaking across the sky, and she couldn't help but say, "The countless meteors streaking across the sky are..."

"Ah, ah~" Dr. Roman seemed to heave a sigh of relief and smiled, "They are Servants! How amazing! They are arriving one after another!"

"I cannot explain the reason either. Could it be that the fact that this Singularity is outside of time has actually become a shortcut for entry?"

"No, none of that matters!"

Dr. Roman's expression became quite serious. He looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash and said, "Heroic Spirits you once knew, Heroic Spirits you once battled."

"Some of them must have thought, 'Might as well help them out.'"

"That is why they rushed over when Fujimaru Ritsuka encountered a crisis."

"In short, this is a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity."

"Under the attack of the Servants, the Demon Gods are currently unable to move freely!"

"The seventy-two demon gods are all engaged in battle. Now, we should be able to destroy them!"

"Open the path to the center! Fujimaru Ritsuka! There is not much time left!"

At Dr. Roman's voice, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash nodded slightly, indicating they already knew.

Right now was the perfect time to sound the horn of counterattack.

Therefore, the two of them also threw themselves into the battle against the Demon God Pillars. No matter what, the enemy in front had to be dealt with!!

Otherwise, they wouldn't even have the qualifications to go to the Throne!!!!

Outside the video.

No Game No Life World, library.

"Ho ya..."

Jibril looked at the meteors in the video. At this moment, she also realized that the so-called Meteor Shower of the Highest Heaven referred to this!!!!

Indeed, this was truly a meteor shower, only these meteors were all Servants, that is, Heroic Spirits.

To be honest, even Jibril felt a strange sense of touch upon seeing this scene.

The heroes of humanity were not fighting to protect human history, but for Fujimaru Ritsuka, this human with whom they had forged a bond.

This existence who had always walked at the very forefront, faced countless enemies and malice, overcome countless difficulties, and challenged things that were impossible in the eyes of ordinary people.

The last Master of humanity, she herself had once said.

She would not become the last Master; that is to say, she felt that human history would continue and that the next Master would appear.

Therefore, she would not become the last Master.

"This is... quite heart-stirring." Jibril licked her lips, and a look of interest radiated from her eyes.

To be honest, considering she was chatting with Fujimaru Ritsuka now, in a certain sense, did that count as forging a bond?

Although she was not human, she was a Flügel, and in the future, when the other party challenged that existence named Solomon, the King of Mages.

Whether she could join this battle or whether she could fight was one thing; the key was that Jibril simply wanted to help Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Yeah! It was definitely not because the Demon God Pillars over there looked like they were worth destroying, which was why she wanted to go over.

No Game No Life World, inside the human city.

"Uwaaaaaah!!! They've come out!!! The Heroic Spirits have all come out!!!"

Stephanie felt very teary-eyed at this moment; her expression was extremely emotional, but tears were streaming down her face because this scene was simply too stirring!!!!

At the moment when Fujimaru Ritsuka had fallen into an absolutely disadvantageous position and was about to have their journey forcibly terminated by the Demon God Pillar ahead of time.

Those Heroic Spirits who had fought side-by-side with her in the Singularities, and even those who had been hostile toward her, had all appeared.

At this moment, they stood in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka, fighting for her, their 'Contractor'.

"Humans..."

Sora revealed a rather emotional expression; he looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka in the video, a variety of complex emotions flashing in his eyes.

In the comment section, he was also someone who had communicated with the other party; from their words, he could sense it.

Fujimaru Ritsuka was actually a quite 'ordinary' human being. She was an ordinary girl who held goodwill toward everything in the world, while also possessing a psychological wariness of others.

Simply put, she was just an ordinary person, an ordinary person seen everywhere.

Yet, it was this version of her that had gotten to know so many Heroic Spirits, from being forced into the Human Order Incineration incident at the beginning, to now being an ace Master capable of handling things on her own.

"Brother." Shiro seemed to sense Sora's emotions; she shifted slightly in his arms, as if to say, stop sighing and continue watching the video.

"Yes, this is humanity." Sora smiled; he patted Shiro's little head and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka in the video, saying: "Humans with infinite possibilities; the light of humanity shines upon her, and it is so dazzling."

"This is much more dazzling than us; at the very least, like Riku and Shuvi, she will resist for the sake of this world."

As he spoke, Sora appeared somewhat dejected.

Seeing Sora like this, Stephanie subconsciously wanted to comfort him, telling him not to look down on himself, as he and Shiro were also very, very strong existences.

However, Sora quickly cheered up, looking at Fujimaru Ritsuka in the video and smiling: "But, with the help of the Heroic Spirits, I believe the path ahead will be very smooth. However, how will they confront Solomon in the end?!"

Looking at the revitalized Sora, Stephanie stopped herself from speaking; for a moment, she actually didn't know what to say, and the words of comfort she had intended to speak...

were swallowed back by her at that moment.

Magical Girl Illya World.

"Stars! So many stars! So many Arash!"

magical ruby looked at so many stars and cheered: "With so many Arash crashing down, I reckon all the Demon God Pillars will die instantly."

"..."

At this moment, even Illya was speechless; she looked at magical ruby and retorted: "Why is it Arash? Is it just because his Noble Phantasm is called Stella?!"

"And that is a powerful blow that shatters the Artoria Pendragon's Noble Phantasm head-on at the cost of his own life!!! Don't say it so strangely!!!"

magical ruby floated beside Illya and smirked: "After all, those meteors look so dazzling, reminding me of Arash's performance as a 'Meteor'. But if there were really so many Arash crashing down, does that mean this Grand Temple of Time would disappear?"

"No, it probably wouldn't."

At this time, Miyu shook her head; she looked at magical ruby and said very calmly: "Because there is a Beast. If it is a Beast of the level of Goddess Tiamat, then even if there are so many Arash using self-destruct attacks, I estimate it could only cause a little bit of damage."

Even at this moment, Miyu could not forget just how strong Goddess Tiamat was.

Furthermore, the other party also possessed the terrifying ability of Nega Genesis, which could ignore the Noble Phantasm attacks of most Heroic Spirits.

Therefore, Miyu believed that the Beast also had similar means; that Beast which had not yet appeared likely possessed abilities similar to Goddess Tiamat.

"However, in this case, the Demon God Pillars will be suppressed by the Heroic Spirits."

magical sapphire analyzed very calmly: "As long as Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash do as they did at the start of the battle meeting, cutting off the magical energy provided to the center, they can then open the path to the Throne."

"It's just unclear whether there will be any Servants other than Mash following Fujimaru Ritsuka at that time."

"After all, if it were only Mash, that would be a bit too much of a stretch; Solomon, the King of Mages is a quite powerful existence."

Although Solomon, the King of Mages had only appeared once, his power was deeply ingrained in people's hearts.

Back in London, when facing Solomon, the King of Mages, Fujimaru Ritsuka had many Heroic Spirits helping to deal with Solomon, in addition to Mash.

The result ended in failure; although Mash had become very strong now, she was surely still no match for Solomon.

"There should be Servants following them, right?" Illya looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash in the video, her expression somewhat subtle as she said: "However, I feel it's somewhat unlikely."

"Because there are too many Demon God Pillars, and I feel that the matter of subjugating Solomon should be handled by Mash and Fujimaru Ritsuka; the appearance of other Heroic Spirits is just to clear the obstacles blocking their path."

Illya's intuition was quite accurate; although she was not like Miyu, who analyzed subsequent plot points by collecting various details and reasoning.

However, she instinctively sensed that the upcoming confrontation with Solomon should be something that these two 'living people', Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash, would experience.

"Mm." Miyu nodded slightly, and she said calmly: "However, it is enough. The grown-up Mash will definitely not lose to Solomon, the King of Mages, and furthermore... the other party might even be an existence impersonating Solomon."

PS: "Next is a time to skip a large amount of plot; after all, going through the Heroic Spirit plot of each Singularity one by one is rather delicate, mm! However, I will still select a few interesting plot points to talk about. As for what interesting plot points, everyone should have already guessed."
