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

"You actually came out with me? Aren't you afraid I might be a spy for the other side?"

As he emerged from the underground tunnel, the black-haired, black-robed adjudicator toyed with the inverted cross in his hand and asked with great interest.

"Indeed, that's a possibility."

Fujimaru Ritsuka said, without a hint of denial.

"Even so, I still want to believe the Nero believes in you. After all, as a Master, it's only natural to trust your Servant, right?"

Simon was slightly taken aback, then gave a soft hum.

"Tsk, an interesting Master. I'm starting to understand why that girl [Nero] is interested in you. Don't let her past glory as an empress fool you..."

"But that guy is someone who can't even trust his own biological mother."

Maybe that's true, but... in any case.

Looking into the distance, the girl in the red dress had bright, piercing green eyes.

Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but smile slightly.

Even if the sun no longer shines brightly, she will still shine as brightly as ever.

"Hmm, you're in great shape today."

His Majesty Nero seemed to be full of power and passion; his infectious charisma as a leader and idol stirred the hearts of all who beheld him.

The audacious emperor did not choose to bypass or launch a surprise attack; instead, the four-man squad immediately prepared to assault the emperor's palace.

The palace on Palatine Hill has a staircase leading all the way to the top, and a large number of soldiers... under the control of the corrupt, guard the towering and magnificent palace.

"I never imagined that one day I would be my own enemy. This is such an unusual thing. I am confident of victory against any enemy in the world, but I am also full of talent... I have no choice but to fight with my life on the line!"

"I'm sorry, Ximen and Fujimaru, for keeping you company with my whims. If we can win, I will certainly reward you handsomely!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka followed: "Actually, I'm honored enough to be able to fight alongside Nero."

"Hmm...that's quite a bold confession, umm, I give you permission!"

Nero nodded, blushing slightly. His abdomen felt warm, as if he could still feel the gentle magic flowing through his body.

"Oh~ Master, do you mean it's not an honor to fight alongside me?"

Hei Dai, who had been silent for a long time, revealed a playful, cold smile.

What the hell!

"No, of course I didn't mean that. It's a great honor to fight alongside Artoria..."

"Oh ho ho~~ Would it be more of an honor for Master to fight alongside me or to fight alongside a child emperor?"

Hei Dai narrowed his eyes. "I think there's no other answer to this question, is there?"

The bright red-haired girl smiled and looked over.

"That's right, I'm also very concerned about this question. Who does Fujimaru prefer to fight alongside?"

"It should be Yu without a doubt!"

"After all, I am an emperor who is as lovely, powerful, and gorgeous as a rose, so there is no reason for me to lose to anyone else!"

The Rose Emperor clutched his chest, bounced a couple of times, and looked smugly at the barely bulging black diaphragm.

"Humph~"

Blackie's forehead veins bulged as he looked at Nero's broad mind and great heart, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

They still care, don't they? The gap between the O factions is as huge as the gap between a kingdom and an empire.

"Don't be like that. I really like both of you. Isn't fighting together the most honorable thing?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka quickly comforted Black Saber and Red Saber.

"Ugh... Fujimaru, you bastard, you actually want a threesome?!"

Nero was suddenly startled. Yesterday, in order to replenish Rome's energy, Nero learned a lot of knowledge and became a very mature adult.

It was an extremely shameful thing to begin with, and Nero, as a living person, still felt lingering fear.

"shameless."

Hei Dai blushed slightly and muttered a curse in embarrassment.

"How greedy you are, Fujimaru... but I won't be harsh!"

"After the battle, you shall become my bride, and I shall bestow upon you the glory of Fujimaru in this prosperous city of seven hills!"

......

Nero said in a high-spirited tone.

"Dream on, you child emperor. My master isn't so easily obtained. At the very least, as the king of Britain, I haven't yet recognized him..."

"Then you will join me and become my beloved concubine as well! Rome is a very open city. Even girls can be together as long as there is love."

"You guy!"

Black Saber suddenly paused slightly: "Not only Master, but they've even set their sights on my body?!"

"Because...because although you seem cold, you were very warm yesterday, and I liked that. If Fujimaru likes you, then it's reasonable for me, who likes Fujimaru, to like what Fujimaru likes!"

The Rose Emperor's face turned the color of roses as he looked passionately at the bewildered Blackie.

"Boring as hell."

Blackie snorted coldly. As the Queen of Britain, she had no good feelings towards Rome, and there was no way she would become the concubine of some tyrant.

......

"I'm sorry to interrupt your utterly shameless Roman-style conversation."

The adjudicator's gaze was fixed on the surging tide of red and white.

"It seems we're about to face our first wave of battle before storming the palace. It's begun."

Row upon row, the army was perfectly aligned, their movements coordinated and synchronized, as if they were conducting a military review.

The sharp spears reflected a cold light, and the red-clad figures in white armor stood out vividly in the illumination.

"Hmm...are those...Roman soldiers?!"

"Although I know that guy is indeed very charming as [me], the idea of ​​me fighting over something like this..."

A hint of reluctance appeared on the emperor's golden face.

"As subordinates, it is only natural for them to sacrifice themselves for their lord. You can just charge in directly. From the moment they pledged allegiance to the enemy, they were no longer your soldiers."

Blackie [Compassionless]: Subordinate, what is that? Can we eat it?

"La~~~~! Lala~~~! Everyone, let's sing and march forward together!!!"

Suddenly, atop that towering marble peak, the magnificent figure of an idol appeared. If you weren't paying attention, you might mistake it for a beautiful, ornate statue.

Although she was beautiful and charming, the sudden burst of singing was like an ultrasound, spreading and vibrating, stimulating the nervous system.

"Click~~ Sasha~~!"

The Dragon Girl's singing voice was like the sound of fingernails rapidly scratching a blackboard, like foam rubbing against glass, or like the sharp roar of a shovel scraping against a cement floor.

A soprano voice, a magnificent idol's voice, instantly flowed from the Blood Dragon Girl's warm, pink lips.

[Whoa! What's that sound?!]

[His voice is comparable to that of His Majesty Nero]

[How can it have such a strong deterrent effect? ​​Who can stand this? It's practically torture!]

[Hearing that shrill sound, I...]

Blood Witch!!

This singing is like hell!

"Dear Elizabeth! So you were there. I was worried about why you suddenly disappeared."

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the little dragon girl with great surprise.

In reality, Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't even notice that the little dragon girl had disappeared.

Elizabeth gave a thumbs-up, stood regally on the high platform, and shouted loudly.

"Of course, the timing of an idol's appearance is very important."

"Nero, even if they are enemies, you wouldn't want Roman soldiers to be harmed again, would you?"

Elizabeth blinked, finally no longer holding anyone back.

"Let's march straight ahead, to reclaim the throne! And don't forget to challenge me to a duel!"

"Mmm, thank you so much, Elizabeth! I'll never forget it, the best idol will definitely be me!"

You should probably give up. If you decide who is better, someone will have to fight to the death.

"Leave this to me, you guys go ahead, I'll follow later!"

Elizabeth smiled sweetly, gripping the little black devil lance, and stood there blocking the soldiers.

Nero nodded emphatically, and Fujimaru Ritsuka gave Elizabeth a thumbs-up.

Simon twisted his face, curled his lip, and narrowed his dark eyes: "Damn it, I didn't expect we'd have to rely on this kind of thing now. It's really annoying, but whatever."

"Let's move forward, I've already investigated."

"Before we encounter another Nero, we must defeat four Roman emperors to reach the throne."

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked in the direction of the hill that Nishimon had pointed out.

The magnificent palace, constructed of marble, stands tall at the top, with four deep passageways that anyone can pass through.

As Ximen explained, he led the group toward Emperor Xiong Gong.

"Before this was the First Palace, the Palace of the End, guarded by the last emperor of the Byzantine Empire."

"The Second Palace, the Palace of Fury, is guarded by the berserker, the former emperor Caligula."

"The Third House is the House of Intrigue, guarded by Consul Caesar."

"The Fourth Palace, the Palace of Beginnings, the beginning of the Empire and the Republic, with the God-Ancestor Romulus presiding over it."
