His physical condition was indeed not affected at all, everything was normal, but the strength that supported his existence in the world was obviously consumed.

About 10 days were lost in a flash.

This was just the result of Fujimaru Ritsuka using the Lion King Soul once, and even including the use of the special move, the time would not exceed 1 minute.

This made Fujimaru Ritsuka feel a little depressed, but he still didn't say it out loud.

After all, the situation in this singularity is already troublesome enough, and Ritsuka Fujimaru doesn't want to cause Mashu and the others to worry unnecessarily because of his own affairs at this critical juncture.

No one realized that Fujimaru Ritsuka was hiding something, and with the help of Tutankhamun's chariot, they quickly arrived at the sea of ​​trees and saw the Roman and Egyptian armies struggling to hold on.

The attack of the Eye Demon Army was even more fierce than Fujimaru Ritsuka had imagined. A sea of ​​heads lingered on the edge of the sea of ​​trees, attacking it all the time.

The area of ​​the forest today is obviously smaller than when Fujimaru Ritsuka left, and the edges are no longer covered with ordinary trees like in the past, but taller walls made of trees and fortifications made of sharp trees.

In order to avoid close combat with the beholders, Roman and Egyptian soldiers stood on the high walls, using arrows and magic as means of attack to block the beholders who wanted to cross the outer forest and enter the interior.

However, seeing the many "ruins" outside the sea of ​​trees, Fujimaru Ritsuka knew that such a tactic was just a delaying tactic, and the fall was only a matter of time.

Fortunately, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Emiya Shirou arrived at the scene. They transformed into Kamen Riders respectively, and with the support of the Lion King's Holy Spear and the help of Heroic Spirits such as the Knights of the Round Table, they successfully stopped the Eye Demon's offensive and eased the tense battle situation.

Not long after, Romulus and Cleopatra, who received the news, summoned them to a temporary command tent.

Ritsuka Fujimaru finally saw with his own eyes the face of Cleopatra, who was initially believed to be the real mastermind behind this singularity.

To be honest, from Fujimaru Ritsuka's perspective, Cleopatra's beauty is indeed worthy of the nickname of the three great beauties of the East. In terms of pure beauty alone, this blue-haired beauty is probably even better than the Lion King with the bonus of divine charm. Fujimaru Ritsuka, who thought that there was nothing wrong with his sexual orientation, felt his heart fluttering when he saw her. She is simply the embodiment of the word "beauty" in the world.

It's a pity that this beautiful face is now full of fatigue, which reduces her beauty a lot.

Seeing that everyone was present, Romulus first nodded to the Lion King who had come from afar, and then began this imminent meeting.

Although the arrival of Fujimaru Ritsuka's reinforcements greatly slowed down the attack of the Eye Demon army, their physical strength is not unlimited after all, and this respite will not last long.

"Therefore, Rome proposes that we must seize this hard-won opportunity to carry out a decapitation operation and end this war before his obsession changes again."

Romulus looked towards the distance, which was originally the direction of the Egyptian temple. Ritsuka Fujimaru also stood up and looked over. Unfortunately, without the bonus of Robin Hood or Billy the Kid, she couldn't see anything.

Mashu asked the question that everyone was most concerned about.

"Decapitation operation? But isn't the Egyptian commander already here?"

Everyone looked at Cleopatra who was standing aside, and she just laughed helplessly.

"Unfortunately, I can no longer influence his actions. His obsession is stronger than I thought, so strong that he can no longer hear my voice."

"he?"

Hearing a title that both Cleopatra and Romulus had heard, Fujimaru Ritsuka asked a question.

Romulus glanced at Cleopatra and wanted to explain the situation to her, but the latter shook her head and let him do it.

Through Cleopatra's description, the people of Chaldea finally truly understood everything that happened in this singularity.

It turns out that the person who obtained the Holy Grail in this singularity was not Cleopatra, but her lover and protector Antony. He used the Holy Grail to try to kill Octavian, but Octavian had a premonition that things were unusual and made preparations in advance. He used himself to summon Romulus as a backup.

Because of Romulus' participation in the war, the war that would have stopped due to Octavian's disappearance was continued until the Lion King drifted to this singularity.

During this period, Antony followed Cleopatra's advice and used the Holy Grail to summon several pharaohs to fight against the God-Ancestor.

What Cleopatra didn't expect was that the Holy Grail that Leif gave to Anthony was tampered with by him. The more Anthony used the magic in it, the more he would be transformed by a special force and become a monster called "Eye Demon" by Leif.

But this technology is not perfect. No, it should be said that Leif and even the existence behind him were just doing experiments from the beginning.

The transformed Anthony did not retain his sanity like the people in the Eye Demon's world. Instead, he degenerated into an alien beast. He gradually became able to react only to his own obsessions, and finally went completely berserk, resulting in the current situation where the Eye Demon army cannot distinguish between friend and foe.

"That's it."

After listening to this, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked up at Cleopatra, who was also silent, after a brief silence, and said seriously.

"Then I will defeat Anthony and end this singularity."】

"Then I will defeat Anthony and end this singularity myself."

There was a strong will in Fujimaru Ritsuka's words that even Cleopatra, who didn't know the other party, could easily feel. Even Emiya Shirou, who had been silent since entering the temporary command tent, couldn't help but turn his head to look at his cousin, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Shirou Emiya originally thought that this optimistic and kind girl would show her innocent side that made him love and hate her, just like she did when she faced him before.

However, that was not the case. She did not show any sentimentality that a girl of her age would show. She simply and firmly expressed her determination to everyone present.

However, it is understandable to have such thoughts. After all, he and she, the cousins, have not seen each other for several years. The lack of communication for too long will indeed make people become strangers.

Anthony's feelings for Cleopatra, his obsession with Rome, and his hatred for Octavian...

Fujimaru Ritsuka was not completely unmoved after hearing this, but due to her age and lack of experience, she was unable to judge whether it was right or wrong.

If she could, she would naturally relent and try to resolve the situation in a more peaceful way, just like when she went to save Mashu and wanted to help Emiya Shirou.

But before that, she knew that there were still things she had to do, and she would not give up her responsibilities just because others had reasons to stop her.

Humanity must be saved!

When the girl learned that there was someone in the world who could do this, a sense of mission quietly began to sprout in her heart.

Just like what Chen Shi said to her before he died: "I must protect you!"

There is no special and profound reason. It is better to say that there is no need for any complicated reasons to do anything in this world. You have to do it just because you are the most suitable person to do it at the moment.

But this will does not become fragile because of its simplicity without reason. Even after experiencing various things that happened in this singularity, Fujimaru Ritsuka has become somewhat proactive instead of passively accepting.

Looking at the girl's eyes, Cleopatra sighed after a brief silence.

"If I had been as determined as you back then, maybe Anthony and I wouldn't have come to this point."

Knowing clearly whether it is right or wrong, one is reluctant to face it. Instead, he plays deaf and dumb and hypnotizes himself, pretending not to see it.

This may be what Cleopatra regretted most.

Fortunately, the sight of Ritsuka Fujimaru in front of him helped him make up his mind.

"In that case, let me go with you."

The beautiful woman said so, drawing everyone's attention to her.

Emiya Shirou frowned at this.

"Have you decided you can fight that Anthony?"

"That's natural, I meant to say."

Cleopatra smiled confidently, but it didn't last for a few seconds before it turned into a wry smile.

"It's a pity that even if I say this, you won't believe it. After all, we were indeed enemies not long ago. But I have my reasons for going. Although Anthony is the one holding the Holy Grail and running away, I am also responsible for the cause of all this. I have the obligation to witness Anthony's end and end his suffering."

Cleopatra smiled bitterly.

"Besides, I am also an indispensable part of your decapitation operation."

"what?"

Everyone was stunned, and Cleopatra continued to speak.

"It should be due to Anthony's obsession that the army of beholders he created will not attack me. With my cover, you should be able to easily penetrate deep into the hinterland and face Anthony in a relatively complete state.

I believe you have just witnessed the horror of the Eye Demon Army. You can temporarily repel them, but you will never be able to kill them all. Killing them from here to my old temple is simply a fantasy. Even if the God Ancestor becomes your Eye Soul, it will be the same. "

"really."

At this time, Leonardo da Vinci nodded and agreed with Cleopatra.

Although when they first arrived at this singularity, Chaldea and others planned to decapitate Leif, who was able to create eye souls, so they went to look for the Lion King who could serve as a fighting force.

But even Newton did not expect that Anthony, who was considered to be one of the sources of this singularity, could also create eye souls, and that such a huge change had occurred under the influence of Rafe.

Now that beholders have been transformed in large numbers, without the help of Cleopatra, even if all the heroic spirits here use their treasures to clear the way, facing monsters like beholders that can absorb the power of spirits, the estimated outcome is that they will be overwhelmed by the huge number.

After listening to Leonardo da Vinci's analysis of the pros and cons, Shirou Emiya had to agree to the proposal to bring Cleopatra along.

After some discussion, everyone decided that a small team consisting of Fujimaru Ritsuka, Emiya Shirou and Cleopatra would secretly go to the temple in a few hours without attracting the enemy's attention and start the final battle with Antony.

Nitocris and the Knights of the Round Table under the Lion King stayed in the forest to assist the God Ancestor in defending the place, attracting the attention of the enemy army while holding out until everything was over.

"If everything goes well, this will probably be the last battle of this singularity."

Listening to Romani's final summary, Fujimaru Ritsuka subconsciously touched the Lion King's Eye Soul in his pocket, and then took a barely perceptible deep breath.

——If you only use it once, there shouldn’t be any problem. 】

UMR: Wow! Saying lines like that is bound to cause trouble!

Starburst Abandon Healing Slash: Is this a way to get your life back?

Cancer of the Earth: WOC, I feel like it’s getting weird.

Little Eggplant: It seems like I’m fighting on behalf of my seniors, even if it’s just me who saves their lives.

Seeing Ritsuka Fujimaru's somewhat tense appearance, many viewers showed worried expressions.

[On the other side, outside the temple that is now shrouded in darkness, there is a small village that has long been deserted.

At this time, Toosaka Sakura was sitting quietly on a hand-made swing, swinging her body, her empty eyes looking straight ahead, as if she was thinking about the ultimate problem of life.

Next to her, Angelica, who was brought by her, sat on another swing, swinging at the same frequency as the other party, and asked with a poker face.

"Is this really okay, Miss Sakura?"

"What do you mean?"

Toosaka Sakura responded with the same expressionless face.

Amid the creaking sound of the swing, the two beautiful girls with different hair colors actually looked like sisters from afar.

But Angelica didn't think so. Instead, she was a little dissatisfied with Sakura Toosaka's question even though she knew the answer.

"You should have known that. Although it has not been confirmed yet, the Earthlings' collection of 15 eye souls is likely related to the Great Eye. You should have helped me to get rid of those two Kamen Riders."

"..."

Toosaka Sakura was silent for a few seconds before speaking again.

"Emiya Shirou is a warrior who has been tested in our world. He should be one of us. If he really has a reason to seek help from the Great Eye, I think it can be allowed."

"Miss Sakura-ji."
