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

Good heavens, right before everyone's eyes, Hinako Akuta was blasted to smithereens by her own magic without any regard for anything. Her breasts, her feet, her buttocks, her lips... all of them were instantly and violently blasted into a rain of blood.

"Are you out of your mind?!"

Akuta Hinako's flesh and blood transformed into incomparably pure magic, like fireworks and firecrackers.

boom--!

Boom——!

Splash!

The violent rain of blood from the explosion, along with fiery spikes carrying curses and hatred, fell mercilessly.

"Rider! Summon your mount and prepare to retreat!"

What the hell is this? Nobody would want to fight this thing...

"Yes, Master!"

"Ugh——!"

With a scream as Beryl was grabbed by the collar, the red-haired boy quickly summoned his black steed, threw Beryl onto it, and then swiftly mounted himself.

"Damn it! I should get going too, what kind of crazy woman is this?!"

"Trying to run?! You don't take me seriously, do you?!"

The exploded Hinako, her streamlined and beautiful body, was reassembled under the infusion of natural mana.

Her eyes were still full of comfort and lightness.

"Damn you, Rafe, get ready for my self-destruction!"

"I'll take your damn hit!"

boom--!

Once again, right before everyone's eyes, it was blasted into a bloody mist.

Olga Marie couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

She swallowed hard: "Is...is there such a way to fight?"

The great hero Arash shed tears of envy atop the Throne of Heroes.

[To think that self-destructing won't kill you is truly enviable.]

"You're insane! You're all truly insane! You Chaldea are a bunch of damned lunatics! You should all be burned to ashes!!!"

Ralph cursed and swore as he hurriedly urged the Holy Grail, which had brought him to this singularity, to escape.

What bad luck! I originally wanted to come here to show off and maybe give these guys a piece of my mind.

I've encountered such a crazy woman.

Damn, this is really unlucky.

Get angry when you think about it.

But whatever, I'm just a diplomatic envoy right now anyway. It would be ridiculous if Chaldea could conquer this twisted Lostbelt.

Damn it, no way, I have to find a chance to get my revenge.

Mameldin Prison

"So, my master, Simon, you have been resurrected. Hmm, just as the outside world proclaims, you revived as a savior after three days? Is that how I understand it?" ①

Nero's large, watery eyes gleamed with a vibrant green light as the sky gradually darkened.

"When did I become your teacher? I never said I was your teacher."

The male magician hurriedly waved his hand, something seemed to flicker in the darkness [his palm], and said, "Why do you know so much, little girl... Anyway, you're already locked up in prison, it doesn't matter whether you live or die."

Fujimaru Ritsuka felt that the man seemed very reluctant to discuss this topic. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that there must be something he didn't want the girl to know.

"I need to find a way to escape from here; my companions are waiting for me." Fujimaru Ritsuka gently shook the iron bars.

"Trying to escape? Escaping my ass!"

The magician's voice continued to come from the room on the right, a cold laugh echoing in response to Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"You think I don't want to escape... To be honest, given the current situation outside, it's safer to stay in prison."

"Rome today is no longer Rome... it's practically Sodom, the city of hell. With your skinny arms and legs, you'd better not get kicked by guys who like boys when you go out."

"You like boys...what do you mean?!" Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately felt goosebumps rise all over her body.

"Heh, how should I put it... guess what? Hundreds of Spartacus-like giants... suddenly become homosexual, what do you think would happen?"

"Spartacus...you mean the leader who led the rebellion against Rome a hundred years ago, right? Someone like that, paired with Fujimaru..."

Nero suddenly covered his face while practicing swordsmanship.

Oh my god, just thinking about it is terrifying.

If someone were suddenly loved by Ai-chan, most people probably wouldn't be able to handle it.

The magician smiled wryly, and judging from his voice, he seemed to be leaning back helplessly with his head tilted back.

"The depravity of humanity, the final judgment... in the end, it's just that I and that guy both failed."

“Guys as awful as me…how boring.”

"If a savior really exists... then in this situation, damn it, he should be here by now!"

"Damn it, ugh~~"

The magician shook his hand and angrily slammed his fist on the ground.

The unorthodox magician covered his face, as if he were in great pain.

Gudako felt a pang of pity; with her last shred of conscience, she couldn't bear to see the magician in such agony.

If only we had Chen Gong.

"What... happened? If possible, may I listen?"

Seemingly sensing the magician's pain, he asked in a gentle voice.

"Although I don't know the specifics of what happened, I'd like to understand... I can't guarantee that I can resolve your pain... but I want to help you."

"Is this charity? Is this mercy? We're both prisoners, so what can you do even if you know?"

"I'm sorry, I just..."

"Just what?! Want to help others, want to protect others? Don't be so arrogant! Even the divine child couldn't do it, so what makes you think you can?! With your weak magic and human body?"

With a wild roar, the magician yanked hard on the iron bars, making a clanging sound.

"I just..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at her hands. Although she had undergone some training, her body was still very fragile... but even so.

"I just want to do what I'm supposed to do."

......

The male magician fell silent.

In the darkness, a faint glimmer of light shone through his dark yellow eyes.

"Is this what should be done?"

The male magician murmured, carefully examining Fujimaru Ritsuka's resolute, unwavering, azure eyes, a gaze that seemed to hold the pain and gentleness of someone who had traversed Golgotha...

"You are very similar to him, yet you are also different from him."

"He is..." Fujimaru Ritsuka asked, puzzled.

The male magician shook his head, not answering Gudako's question.

......

"Eh?! Isn't my master supposed to be a savior who claims to be a god?!"

Nero's ahoge twitched, and his large, emerald-green eyes blinked, revealing a beauty untouched by knowledge. [Didn't understand.]

"Rumor has it that the savior died and came back to life after three days, and Simon also came back to life... Isn't this proof of the savior?"

"The savior?"

"Tch, how could that be?"

A barely perceptible hint of despondency flashed in Simon's eyes.

"As a magician, how could I possibly be worthy of the title of savior... It's just a gimmick to pursue fame and fortune."

"Is that so?"

Nero nodded as if he understood, his bright eyes filled with a smile.

"But it doesn't matter. Even if we have different beliefs, even if he's not the savior... I will still respect my teacher. After all, I'm a magnanimous... um... person."

I was going to say "emperor," but then I immediately changed my mind.

That title can only be regained by reclaiming the throne.

Nero patted the giant human heart, which bobbed up and down, and for some reason, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt a surge of restlessness.

"Speaking of which, the gods we worship are quite interesting. Fujimaru, would you like to guess which god I worship?"

Nero hugged his knees with both hands, turning his handsome face to the side, making one's heart flutter.

She has the same face as Lady Arthur, but her liveliness is truly endearing.

"Hmm, if you can't guess, then I'll give you a hint..."

“Venus, the goddess of beauty.” Fujimaru Ritsuka gave the answer almost without hesitation.

"Huh?!...Um...Um, you...you actually guessed it right away?!"

Nero's smug figure suddenly seemed to have been struck a heavy blow.

The girl staggered back two steps, dramatically raising both arms to shield herself: "Truly... truly as expected of Fujimaru Ritsuka, she actually guessed the goddess I worship right away?!"

Nonsense, your own spirit costume has already been displayed!
