"I am the most powerful summoner created by you humans. As long as you are a Heroic Spirit, you can never surpass me."

Sugiretia spoke indifferently, "All Servants have been dismissed here. There is no one here who can surpass him for the time being, so no one can resist the repatriation of the disrupted summoning."

(iii) In the blink of an eye, the scene where nearly ten Servants had gathered here to fight the enemy was immediately changed to only Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash.

Zero: "Hmm? You're not a Heroic Spirit, but a living person... But it doesn't matter, the time has come."

Apart from Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, Manjushri did not disappear either.

Knowing about Goetia's abilities, even though they were unclear, preparations and countermeasures still needed to be taken.

Creating a living person's body on short notice is not too difficult nowadays; otherwise, he wouldn't be here.

However, it still seems that there are not many good opportunities, nor is it something that can be done.

"Indeed, it's difficult for both the living and the followers to stop this thing. But since we're here, we have to see it for ourselves. Even if we can't understand it, we should at least witness it."

Manju watched the band of light descending from above, which possessed a heat that surpassed everything on Earth. Where were there any magical artifacts or anything that could contend with it?

"Confirmed Goetia's third Noble Phantasm. Unleash it. That... it's going to be unstoppable, isn't it?"

Mashu also looked up at the band of light falling from the sky. Anyone could clearly feel the power contained within it, an unstoppable and irresistible power.

"Why can you accept this, Mash Kyrielight? I can understand you, and you should be able to understand me, because we both feel the meaninglessness of life and lament the finiteness of life."

The future is so boring, humanity is so boring, because even living only means witnessing death, and every being faces the pain of losing its life. I've had enough. The birth of a planet without death should be what you desire.

Only one of us is still hesitating, even just one would be enough. We hope that there is someone among humanity who understands our plight. If so, our plan will be unshakeable.

Mash Kyrielight. O life created by humankind, now fading away, let us together deny the history that tells them we are right. Just one word, just say, "Yes." If you agree, I will grant you the right to embark on this journey to the poles together.

Goetia was watching Mash, not because the ability of the Human Reason Burner to activate here was due to Mash.

Although the seventy-two Demon God Pillars were placed in various times, it does not mean that they can all complete their tasks.

At least if Chaldea hadn't appeared, the plan for pseudo-Servants wouldn't have been carried out, Mash wouldn't have been born, Lef wouldn't have witnessed all of this, and the burning of humanity wouldn't have been possible.

Rafe will choose suicide to oppose the burning of humanity. The Demon King Goetia has no definite consciousness; to be precise, he is an aggregate of the seventy-two demons.

That's why he said that one of us is still hesitating; they are the magicians who have come to life consciously, existing both as individuals and as a group.

"You think so too, right, Fujimaru? Her life has reached its limit. Respecting neighbors, trusting friends, and loving one's fellow human beings—if that's right for humanity, then don't get in my way. One of us says we can't stand idly by and not want this planet's final record to become a tragedy, and you feel the same way, don't you? We can't change Mash's eccentricities no matter what. Don't you think that since we're all going to die anyway, we might as well save Mash?"

Getijua also spoke to Fujimaru Ritsuka from a side angle, trying to persuade Mashu.

"Yes, you've been asking me that. Indeed, since death is inevitable, then living is meaningless, and I won't deny your point."

Mashu spoke up, and upon hearing this, Goetia looked expectant: "So, that means..."

"but……"

Mashu's soft voice drowned out Goetia's, and the words that changed the subject silenced Goetia.

"Life's value isn't found while we're alive. In a world without death, without an end, there probably wouldn't be any sadness. But that's not right. Even if I could live forever, I wouldn't say forever because the world I see is right here, even if my life ends in an instant. Even so, I want to witness this future, even if it's just for a second longer."

Mashu said firmly, her flame burning brightly, like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment, making it impossible to ignore.

"What a pity. Then let us burn together with this era. Third Noble Phantasm, unfold. With the fire of the planet, let us bid farewell to the end of humanity. Farewell, Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mash Kyrielight, and the nameless Servant who has been brought to life. Your quest will come to an end here!"

Despite being rejected, Goetia was not discouraged, perhaps only slightly regretful. But since the other party had made up their mind, she decided not to completely destroy the final obstacle.

Goetia's third Noble Phantasm slowly circulated in the sky, unleashing its immense magical power and enormous heat. There was no substance on this planet that could block the light and heat.

"Come, burn to ashes as weeds! Third Noble Phantasm, unfold—'The time of birth has come, with this I will rectify all things (Ars Almadel Salomonis)'!!!"

"Alright, it's time to go. It would be really stupid to keep standing here. Mash and Fujimaru Ritsuka, leave them to me. I promised you, so just stand behind me until I disappear."

Although life inevitably leads to death, and even the gods cannot avoid leaving this world, the journey so far and the journey to come will constitute the meaning of life.

"Your future is still long enough. I can somewhat understand Merlin's thoughts. Your battle shouldn't end here; you've only come halfway. I won't allow the burning of everything that has happened to create a completely new world. Even my heart agrees with my choice."

Manshu did not continue to watch from the sidelines. If he continued to stand by and watch at this point, wouldn't that just be for the sake of getting a closer view of the show?

So what was he there for? Just to watch? That would be too ridiculous.

Although I don't know what I can do, I'll just go for it. Anyway, the time to sacrifice myself has come, so I'll offer myself first.

"This body should have ended while I was walking through Jerusalem. It would have been such a waste to allow me to walk all the way here and give it my last bit of life. I am overjoyed by that."

This brief experience with a living human body is quite nice. Although as a Heroic Spirit one can have real feelings, there is still concern that it is not a true or false story. Oh, the light band that proclaims the end of humanity, the Noble Phantasm that surpasses all the heat on Earth and burns away human history!

I don't possess any Noble Phantasm capable of directly countering such terrifying power. At this point, I can only resort to clever tricks, which ultimately aren't very useful.

The terrifying heat generated by the large halo is indeed something that normal people cannot withstand.

Even if Mash Kyrielight were to block it with her shield, it wouldn't be done on a physical level, but on a mental level.

After all, as long as the heart of the shield on one side remains unwavering, the shield on the other side will also remain unwavering, but the physical heat can still vaporize the person behind the shield.

Just like when Leonidas used his Noble Phantasm to block Gorgon's Thousand Demon Eyes, his shield could only resist physical damage, but not magic, and he was petrified after blocking it.

Goetia's Noble Phantasm possesses power that few could rival even in later stories, and indeed, no one could contend with it here.

"I've done everything I can. This is all I can do now. The human body has its limitations, but there are still ways to make the most of it. Could you provide me with some magic, Fujimaru Ritsuka? Let me cause one last ruckus."

As Manju walked past Fujimaru Ritsuka and headed forward, Fujimaru Ritsuka discovered that the two had actually made a contract.

"Understood. Command it in the name of the Command Spell. Do not hold back. Unleash your power!"

Without any hesitation, Fujimaru Ritsuka transformed the three Command Seals into surging magical power that flowed into Manju's body.

"Then I can't let you down and embarrass yourself. Come on, offer up all my internal organs, no, offer them all as a sacrifice, just to preserve my life for three minutes. Wake up, dark sun, revive, world of beginnings!"

Manju left only a little room for fighting; everything else was unnecessary, as it was clearly pointless and had no chance of being used.

"Life will disappear, but it will not come to an end. The journey from birth to death is a process that should be experienced and savored. Immerse yourself in it and move forward bravely, facing death without fear. Come and see what I can give you."

Although Goetia didn't know what Manshu was doing, and logically there shouldn't be anything here that could stop him, he felt a little uneasy for no reason.

However, the immense heat emanating from above was enough to dispel these anxieties, as the massive heat was released and bombarded Manshu.

In the next instant, the released magic and heat vanished without a trace.

"what happened?"

Not only did the attack from Goetia's third Noble Phantasm disappear, but the surrounding environment also changed.

The entire Grand Temple of Time is collapsing, but this is impossible. Who could possibly erase Goetia's attack and destroy the Grand Temple of Time in just a few seconds?

"What did you do? This is not an illusion, but I do not feel that my inherent barrier has been destroyed. Everything is still fine in my perception."

Goetia stopped what he was doing and calmly looked at the horrific cracking around him.

If this is something that has already happened, it is indeed terrible; the collapse of the Grand Temple of Time means the loss of Goetia's immortality.

"That's keen perception. It seems I can't fool you like this, but this is the scene that was bound to happen. You can clearly sense that this is not an illusion. If it's not an illusion, then where does it come from?"

Although Manjus didn't really expect that this scene would throw Goetia off balance, it was still disappointing that he failed.

"This is reality... You've swapped a future here, so why not just materialize the means to defeat my future as well? It's just a pointless delaying tactic. You might as well just die here obediently, and I'll personally deliver you to you."

Goetia was not greatly affected and immediately launched another attack.

"I was indeed just trying to stall, but I could at least give it a shot and secure a temporary victory when the Grand Temple of Time is shattered and your halo disappears."

This is a reflection of the future. Although it can only last for a short time, at least at this point, Goetia's Noble Phantasm has already disappeared.

It's a bit much to ask to actually replace the future. It's already good enough that we've done this much, and there will never be another chance to do it.

"It seems you won't understand unless you die once. So, turn to ashes..."

Goetia said without any politeness, spreading his arms and shooting out magic bullets from his outstretched arms, which immediately turned into a torrential rain of magic.

Chapter 193 Half-Curtain

This BA film has already entered the fixed realm of destruction and ruin. Even though Goetia has temporarily lost her second and third Noble Phantasms, her momentum is not diminished in the slightest.

Countless streams of magic shot out from Goetia's outstretched arms, transforming into a rain of magic projectiles that bombarded Manju.

Manshu, whose time was limited, did not intend to waste it on this simple exchange.

"Marduk, mighty ruler, you fight against bestiality, create life, and protect humanity. With your supreme will, you will bring new life to this land and hope to avert extinction. I see your nature, I see your majesty, and so I pray to you, that the gods of the universe may bless me, and that you may soothe my heart!"

Manju raised his arms in prayer, taking out the last remaining divine essence of Marduk from his hands.

Following the weapon that Manju had seen Marduk wield not long ago, he guided the divinity of Marduk within him to forge a weapon for his own use to subdue beasts.

It was, after all, based on real reality, something Manjushri had seen and personally experienced; it wasn't a rootless driftwood, nor did it need to be created entirely from nothing. II.

The divinity of Marduk that Manshu possesses is specifically designed for beasts; now, only this characteristic is needed, and the task is to strengthen it so that it can truly become a weapon usable in this battle.

The divine essence was swiftly forged into a weapon, but it was a normal-sized battle axe, which Manshu wielded in his hand.

If a battle axe as massive as the Marduk Axe we've seen before were truly forged, it wouldn't be so easy to wield. Zero

While it might be possible to manipulate it using magic, a normal size would obviously overcome a drawback without losing its inherent advantages.

Manju gripped the weapon he had hastily created and swung it forward, shattering the magic bullet fired by Goetia.

The rain of light formed by the magic projectiles had just been cut down when Goetia was already in front of Manjusaka. He gathered his magic power together, compressing it into his hands and releasing it—a simple light cannon shot was fired.

Manshu quickly held his battle axe horizontally in front of him, using the axe blade to block the attack. Then, with a flick of his right hand, black silt surged forth from both sides, transforming into a massive flood that swept in. Lu

"Let's experience the pain firsthand firsthand, and I'll teach you your first lesson!"

Manshu sped toward Getia, as if afraid the other would escape, his urgency palpable.

"Stop talking nonsense. You can't do anything but ineffective attacks!"

Getia saw Manjus's actions clearly, stopped releasing the magic in her hands, and started walking forward as well.

This time, there were no magic bullets fired; only pure physical power.

Goetia's body moved forward at high speed, and in less than a second, the two charging together collided.

Goetia clenched his fists and swung them wildly at a speed that left countless afterimages, launching a terrifying punch with incredible speed.

Such a frenzied attack is an attack that abandons everything and disregards everything else; perhaps only an enemy with such immortality could be so utterly reckless.

There's no need to defend, because there's no need to defend. All you need to do is attack. Victory is achieved by killing the enemy, but the enemy can never be victorious, because he can't kill himself.

“Indeed, it is time to fight again. So come! Your name shall not be Jacob, but Israel, for you have struggled with God and with men and have overcome.”

Manshu habitually used Jacob's hands and feet in wrestling, a technique he frequently employed, and it was somewhat ingrained in his mind.

Although it doesn't call upon the second, the ninth can still do this and use it to some extent. Moreover, after calling upon the third, it can also use it flexibly, rather than relying solely on the memories engraved in the body.

Marduk's divine hand axe swung down fiercely, while his other hand swiftly countered Goetia's terrifying fist.
