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

......

The senior student did not reply.

"Senior? Senior Ophelia?"

Gudako waved her hand quietly again and asked.

"Um....."

Her jewel-like blue eyes stared at Fujimaru Ritsuka.

stare----

"Are you OK?"

Gudako felt a little uneasy under Gudako's gaze and couldn't help but ask.

"I already said. No need for 'senpai,' just call me by my name, Fujimaru."

Ophelia corrected her seriously.

"Eh—?! Sorry, Ophelia-san."

Fujimaru Ritsuka clasped her hands together and sincerely apologized.

I didn't expect Ophelia to be so serious about this.

"I've told you before, you should be more serious. This careless attitude... at least don't ignore your comrades' words... are you serious about suddenly having the soldiers enthrone me as Queen of France?"

"She truly deserves to be called an excellent student. At the very least, Ophelia's spirit is worthy of my respect."

Fujimaru Ritsuka could see a hint of confusion in the girl's eyes.

That defiant demeanor was heartbreaking.

"You're right, I'm just an ordinary person, and each of you is much better than me."

Fujimaru Ritsuka pursed her lips and said with a slight apology, "I may not be able to act like a model student, but... even just a little bit, I still want to do my part... Um, if I've caused any trouble for Ophelia-san, I'm really sorry."

"No, it's nothing... You don't need to apologize. I'm not angry about this. You've exceeded my expectations in this operation. You don't need to belittle yourself."

Ophelia hesitated to look at Fujimaru Ritsuka, swallowed hard, and then said seriously.

"Also, well, how should I put it, thank you for saving us before. Pepe was right, if it weren't for you, we'd probably all be..."

Why do I have this illusion that my liking for someone has increased?

Did I do anything to make Ophelia happy?

Ophelia made up her mind, raised her head, and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with her jewel-like eyes with great seriousness.

"Fujimaru, I owe you a favor. Whether it's Mashu or you... my previous judgments were a bit too arbitrary."

"In short, I've changed my opinion about you. Like I said before, I won't suggest that you and Mashu separate anymore."

"This is truly...unexpectedly kind of undressing."

Ophelia's eyes narrowed, and she looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with some displeasure.

"What do you take me for, some old-fashioned, stubborn woman? I may be a senior, but I'm not stupid, you junior."

Ophelia said, half-jokingly.

But look at that little glance.

If Gudako had seen too many beautiful girls, he probably would have been moved too.

It's understandable that Soult and Napoleon would be drawn to her, after all, she truly evokes the image of a delicate, snow-capped lotus, inspiring a desire to protect her.

[So cute!]

However, I, Gudako, am not a player who falls in love with every woman he meets [I'm sure of it].

I already have Mash, Jeanne Alter, Ereshkigal, Caster, Morgan, Okita Souji... [To be continued]

Forget it, I'm a jerk [I'm sure of it].

But I don't fall in love with every girl I meet.

You are all my wings.

"Huff...huff...huff, let's take a short rest."

In the dark and gloomy forest, a tall figure moved silently through the trees.

"At this distance, we should have shaken off their pursuit."

Peperoncino glanced at him discreetly, then breathed a sigh of relief and said...

It's not that he's weak, or that his servants are weak; on the contrary, their teamwork is far superior to that of a typical Master and Servant.

However, the problem lies in...

"Aaaaaaaahhhhhh!!! I'm so angry! You bastard, you son of a bitch, do you even know how to be a Master?!"

The fiery servant, its entire body glowing red, was on the verge of going berserk.

"Why are you yelling so loudly? Do we even know each other? What does it matter to you whether I become a Master or not?"

Faced with the horse's neighing question that seemed to want to tear a person apart, Hinako Akuta retorted without mercy.

"What does this have to do with me?! Tell me, you fucking tell me! I was fighting perfectly well up there, what the hell were you calling for Lanling Wang for, you stupid woman?"

"Didn't I tell Gao Changgong to use his Noble Phantasm? Do you have a problem with that?"

Don't even mention Noble Phantasms; the moment you do, the anger just flares up even more.

"Yes, you activated it. You did activate your Noble Phantasm, that's for sure. Let's not even talk about how you, you idiot girl, used Command Spells to charge it up. First of all, you should figure out Lanling King's Noble Phantasm, okay?"

"Damn it, Lanling King's Noble Phantasm has two effects: one weakens the enemy formation, and the other strengthens himself... But you bastard, why did you lower my defense while giving the opponent damage reduction and attack boost?!"

"I've been chopping for ages, and suddenly I just can't chop anymore."

"Tell me, you bastard, is this... is this a surprise?!"

The horse neighed and roared in fury.

"It's all because of your appearance; you're easily mistaken for monsters or zombies..."

"What did you say? I'm ugly, but even Dudu has never said that to me... You son of a bitch! I'm going to tear you apart!"

The masked swordsman quickly pulled the two apart and tried to break up the fight.

"My lord, Lord Ma Si, please stop arguing. Let's calm down..."

"you shut up!"

"Get the hell out of my way!"

Lanling Wang [shocked]: !! !! ? [Feeling wronged]

Peperoncino shrugged. [Sigh?_?｀]

"Great, it seems our group has no chance of getting anything done with the human restoration work~"

Chapter 33 Jeanne Alter Assassin Gudako - The Road to Freebies

In the stillness of the night, Guda lay quietly on the stone bed inside the fortress house.

In the previous playthrough, Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't have much contact with Ophelia-senpai, so naturally she couldn't win over such a lovely "companion".

However, Ophelia herself said that we are her lovely juniors.

Although there is no reason to exonerate the members of Group A, and they could even be considered traitors to the pan-human history, Fujimaru Ritsuka has always been clear about this.

No one bore a greater burden of sin than him.

It wasn't that he and Pan-Human History forgave everyone, but rather that a flawed history and a misguided future paved the way for Gudako's progress in the competition.

It was they who forgave Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Fujimaru Ritsuka had a dream.

I dreamt of the future in my first playthrough, and I dreamt of Lostbelts in South America.

I dreamt that the director, though an alien god, returned to the future of Chaldea.

I dreamt of the terrifying annihilation of Chaldea, but it turned out to be a false alarm in the future.

Somehow.

Tears slid down her cheeks.

An indescribable bitterness welled up inside me, threatening to burst forth.

Although I have many familiar friends, I can't bring myself to say it.

Things in the future.

I thought I'd finally get a good night's sleep after so long, but...

I can't fall asleep properly.

The pain was so intense, it felt like my heart was about to explode.

I want to sleep with Jeanne Alter.

Where is Jeanne Alter...?

Oh right, my wife said it's her turn to patrol outside the city... I was just thinking of holding her while we slept.

After a while... Guda finally felt a little sleepy, but her brain felt hazy.
