I, Fujimaru Ritsuka, am back with a max-level character!

"Even on the land of the future Eastern Roman Empire, it will not be shaken in the slightest!"

"Therefore, we are the last of our kind."

"Your city walls should not be thick barriers to defend against a magnificent imperial regime."

The dazzling light cannons bombarded the sturdy city walls, yet there was no terrifying roar.

Like water rushing over mud, the blazing light cannons rapidly eroded Constantine's seemingly impregnable walls.

"But it is the driving force that propels me to explore the future!"

The blinding light beam expanded and burst forth in an instant, and under the blinding white light, Constantine's entire figure seemed to transform into simple lines.

"What on earth is this?!"

“I…I have heard your voice. As expected of the passionate His Majesty Nero.”

In a daze, Constantine was first shocked, then revealed a gentle smile, and a satisfied and relieved expression.

"You are someone who can break through the future; this passion is something I cannot possess."

"Therefore, the imperial power you lost, this quarter of your ability, is now returned to you."

"..."

The Palace of the End, the walls that Constantine guarded, eventually crumbled and perished, just as they would have fourteen hundred years later.

......

It was as if nothing had ever happened.

The blazing flames of the Noble Phantasm gradually dissipated, leaving behind a lingering aura of burning passion in the air.

"Well-"

"To be at war with the last emperor, I...I am also very distressed."

The radiance faded, and the Palace of the End, which it had guarded, was finally left empty.

“I have truly felt your desire to protect Rome. Just as you want to protect your city, I will risk my life to protect this era.”

A hint of melancholy flickered in her emerald eyes, but then, with the return of imperial power, the girl seemed to radiate an even more magnificent and legendary glow.

"Hmph, are you starting to look a little more like a child emperor?"

Hei Dai, supporting his sword, spoke in a tone that was hard to decipher—whether it was praise or sarcasm was unclear.

"I've already said it, I'm a mature adult, I'm a girl who's had my first time, I'm not a little emperor!"

The emperor, so holy and magnificent, suddenly lost his composure in a second.

---------------

Here, the main force of Chaldea, Group A members

The captain and other outstanding magicians are currently facing a very serious problem.

They were protected, surrounded by a group of barbarian soldiers armed with shields and spears, who did not appear to be regular troops.

Although they would definitely have the upper hand in a fight, it's better to avoid trouble in places like this.

"Who are you?"

The squad leader looked warily at the members of Group A. Their strange attire, no matter how you looked at it, did not resemble the clothing of any tribe.

"More than that, I'd like to ask you who you are. In this era... are there still blue-skinned people?"

Kirshtalia looked at the soldier in front of her with some doubt and couldn't help but ask a question.

"Where would you find blue-skinned people? Do you think this is a Marvel movie? This is obviously just paint on!"

The paint was applied...

In the control room, Dr. Roman quickly said, "I understand, they are the Celtic army!"

"This era, led by Queen Boudica, is an army that opposes Rome."

"We might be able to cooperate with them and even obtain some basic information about this world!"

"At this time, Rome and the Celts are enemies. So if we establish good relations with them, we might be able to persuade them to attack Rome and rescue Fujimaru."

Olga Marie nodded, twirling her hair: "You're right. Just like that Fujimaru guy, let's negotiate with the people of this world."

Mashu nodded. "I understand."

The Celts' advance into Gaul, even threatening the Italian peninsula, was not good news for Rome.

The rebellion across the entire territory may well have been a direct result of the empire's conquest and oppression of its various colonies.

That's understandable, but war always results in death.

The corpses and spirits scattered everywhere are the most obvious evidence.

This indicates that a large number of people died in a short period of time.

The wandering spirits have been here all along, gradually turning into corpses. If you suggest having a priest or something similar perform a ritual to help them pass on...

Just kidding, they're lucky they don't become necromancers themselves.

However, this is quite different from the ones underground in Rome.

That kind of thing was born entirely from resentment towards Rome—it was evil.

"We mean no harm; we are just travelers who have just arrived. We are currently trying to find a way to rescue our important partner who has crashed in Rome."

With great effort, Mashu, contrary to her usual introverted demeanor, stepped forward to negotiate.

"Rome?! So, you came from there?"

The Celtic soldier watched the crowd with even greater vigilance and caution, while the leather-armored warriors behind him gripped their swords tightly.

"No, we were just passing by when we encountered the battle between the red swordsman and the white swordsman. Caught off guard, our classmate fell into the blasted abyss."

Mashu explained with great sadness, her purple eyes gleaming, clearly showing her deep concern for Fujimaru Ritsuka's safety.

......

"Is...is that so? I'm sorry, I didn't know..."

The sergeant's tone immediately softened, his wary gaze turning into pity and comfort.

"Hiss... It's amazing you guys survived that place. You're incredibly lucky."

The sergeant took a deep breath and said.

"It's far too dangerous for travelers to arrive here at this time. Fortunately, you've encountered us; if you had been corrupt Roman soldiers, things wouldn't have been so simple..."

"Degenerate Roman soldiers? Why do you say degenerate? They were enemies, that's true, but I've never heard of such a description before. It sounds like they're demons."

Kadoc frowned and asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Shh~~ Don't ask about this, it's a topic you absolutely must never touch."

The soldier hurriedly made a shushing gesture, which only made everyone more confused.

"In short, as long as we successfully defeat Rome, everything will be resolved..."

"If the meaning is unclear, then I would like to ask, is your leader Boudica, the Queen of Isen?"

Mashu continued to ask, her gaze fixed on the blue-faced British soldier.

I wonder if Mash has an extra affinity for Britain because of her status as a Britannian Servant; the Celts seem to be very easy to talk to.

Even so, the soldier was still in a dilemma: "This... I'm afraid it won't work. Although I personally feel that you don't seem like evil people, it's still not allowed to meet the Queen casually..."

"They're fine."

A girl in white walked out from behind, her voice clear and melodious.

"Ahhh... Ah, Lord Jing Ke, why have you come here in person?"

The soldier looked at the girl, who was about 1.6 meters tall and had a smile on her face, and couldn't help but bow and salute.

"No need for formalities. I just overheard your conversation and came to join in the fun."

Olga Marie looked at the data displayed on the screen and suddenly realized: "The energy reaction of the follower... Jing Ke, I think he's the assassin who tried to assassinate the First Emperor!"

"You think you can assassinate that guy with just a gun? What are you thinking? Seriously. I don't know if you're just confused or your brain is oxygen-deprived."

When Hinako saw Jing Ke, she seemed to recall some unpleasant events. Having absorbed the Servant's memories, a barely perceptible hint of resentment flickered in her eyes.

This guy not only dared to assassinate the First Emperor with a dagger, but he even dared to assassinate the mechanical First Emperor with a mobile phone virus.

"These are all failures, no need to mention them, haha... But your way of communicating is quite interesting."

"Come with me, I will take you to see the Queen of Britain."

Jing Ke smiled elegantly and addressed the crowd.

"Then I'll have to trouble you. We're currently investigating this singularity, and meeting a Servant like you would be extremely helpful."

Olga Marie, as the director of Chaldea, spoke on behalf of everyone.

"It's nothing, it's just a small favor."

Jing Ke waved his sleeve and said nonchalantly.

Barbarian outpost (x) British military camp (√)

It's basically a cluster of tents, not much of a military camp, more like an outpost. I just don't know if it will drop gold coins after a raid.

But this was already the location of the main force of the western forces opposing Rome.

Queen Isen would not have been able to conquer Gaul at this time of history, as the Roman legions stationed in Britain alone were already overwhelming the backward Celtic tribes.
