Chapter 781 The True Purpose of Ouroboros
While Fujimaru Ritsuka was observing Fantasy, Fantasy was also observing her.

Even though they had never met before, and even though two people noticed his presence at the first moment, he still recognized Fujimaru Ritsuka at a glance.

The reason is simple. Among the four people, only Fujimaru Ritsuka is human.

Now, only human beings can become the key cornerstone to solve all problems.

and……

"So he is a hero secretly trained by the gods?"

I imagined looking around Fujimaru Ritsuka, as if I were sizing up some rare animal, and said in amazement:
"How bizarre... The last time this happened was when we were dealing with the King of the End of the Century, right?"

"And this time they did it in secret, going to a world beyond the observation of the small garden to cultivate it... Interesting, really interesting...!"

Not only that, just based on the other party's identity, all kinds of speculations began to emerge in his mind, making him unable to stop.

This time, what kind of ideas did those guys above have in mind when they created the girl in front of them?

Thinking of this, Fantasy stared at Fujimaru Ritsuka with his undisguised eyes full of lustful curiosity, and asked with a smile:

"Now, can you tell me what mission the gods have given you?"

"..."

Looking at the psychopath in front of her who was circling around her like a fly and talking to himself, Fujimaru Ritsuka took a half step back with some disgust, then stretched out her right index finger and said:
"First of all, I did receive a lot of help from the gods, but I'm definitely not a hero who was secretly trained;"

“Secondly, I wasn’t given any messed up mission;”

"Finally, if you can't talk properly, then I can only use other means to calm you down a little."

"I totally agree! I also think that it would be better to beat up a guy like this who doesn't look like a good person before communicating with him."

Kukulkan nodded in agreement and began to move his wrists eagerly.

Sensing the threat, Fantasy retreated decisively, raising his hands above his head in surrender, but his attitude remained frivolous.

"Please spare me! Judging people by appearance is a bad habit, and using violence instead of communication is even more backward."

"but……"

He looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka again and said:

"You can't get past the topic with such a clumsy lie."

"If you are not a hero cultivated by the people, then how do you explain the many blessings from the gods that have come to you?"

"——Pfft."

Before Fujimaru Ritsuka could answer, a laugh suddenly came from the side.

When everyone heard the voice and looked over, they saw that Pest couldn't help but curl his lips and said with a slightly emotional tone:

"I originally thought that as a 'poet' you really knew everything, but now it seems that this is not the case."

Seeing this, Fantasy raised his eyebrows slightly and said:

"Oh, how do you say this?"

"Because if you knew anything about her and Chaldea, you wouldn't ask such a low-level question!"

“Low level…?”

Looking at Pest who looked as if it was a matter of course, Fantasy immediately understood something and finally showed a surprised look.

In other words, the blessing given to Ritsuka Fujimaru is not one-sided, given by the superior to the inferior, but more like a natural acquisition based on equal rights and responsibilities?

...This point does make sense.

This even explains why the higher-ups treated Fujimaru Ritsuka in this way, instead of treating him like His Highness.

However, the moment he understood this, a new question immediately arose in his mind -

Why?
At the same time, because of the title of "poet" mentioned by Pest, Fujimaru Ritsuka also looked at the other party again with some surprise.

If she remembered correctly, the poet seemed to be called the fourth strongest species in the small garden?

Poets are a species of mythical beasts similar to humans like giants. Although they do not have strong powers, they have a very terrifying ability - game remake. Since ancient times, poets have used songs, books, or various other methods to convey history to people. Depending on the era, they even have a stronger influence than the king of a country.

It is also because of this that influential poets can fabricate false achievements to spread the king’s bad reputation and distort the true history.

In this box garden that exists in all time streams, poets are also given the ability to change history at will, and poets with great influence can even create their own group of gods.

All in all, it is a race that is very suitable for conspiracy.

Back to the point.

On the other hand, after realizing that the development of things was different from what he expected, Fantasy finally restrained his slightly frivolous attitude, and at the same time became more and more interested in the existence of Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Then, he bowed slightly to Fujimaru Ritsuka and said:

"I apologize for my rash speculation, and I am willing to accept the punishment if it has annoyed you, Your Excellency."

"Forget the punishment."

Fujimaru Ritsuka shook his head and said:

"Can we get to the point now?"

"of course."

Fantasy spread his hands and smiled:

"To show my sincerity, I will let you ask the questions first."

"Ok."

Fujimaru Ritsuka was not polite and asked straight to the point:

"Your Highness said that Ouroboros is not my enemy. I want to know why you said that?"

“That’s a good question indeed.”

Fantasy nodded, but did not answer immediately. Instead, he said with a smile:
"The so-called enemy is a term used by two parties with opposing positions to refer to each other."

"So before answering this question, I would like to confirm how much you know about the situation of Ouroboros, and what is your attitude towards it?"

This way of speaking really makes us feel like a family.

Fujimaru Ritsuka glanced at "Your Highness" and answered the other party's questions honestly, roughly explaining the information they currently had.

That is, [Ouroboros] was supported by a certain group of gods to destroy the Demon King Alliance in the box garden, and now it is planning to lift the seal of the [Final Trial of Humanity] that has been sealed.

Her position, naturally, is to prevent this from happening.

"Let's put aside the matter of the [Final Trial of Humanity], but have you even found out that there is a group of gods supporting [Ouroboros]?"

"No, maybe not an investigation..."

Fantasy was a little surprised, and then he began to mutter to himself as if he had thought of something. Fortunately, he soon returned to normal and said with a smile:

"Anyway, I have understood the general situation. Then, I must first clarify a serious misunderstanding—"

"Our goal as Ouroboros is definitely not to destroy the Little Garden!"

"In fact, it's quite the opposite. In fact, all our actions are to save the box garden, and even to save the countless worlds connected to the box garden!"

"Therefore, the current situation between the two sides is a complete misunderstanding."

"……what?"

Despite the other party's impassioned speech and confident tone, Fujimaru Ritsuka just felt confused.

"You mean to say that you want to liberate the [Final Trial of Humanity] and wreak havoc in the small garden like the incident in the South District this time, and such behavior is actually to save the small garden?"

Fantasy did not feel ironic about this, but nodded as if it was a matter of course:

"Yes, that's right!"
