"I don't know what you are talking about, but I am willing to believe in Nero Claudius' luck."
So that after her, will there be five wise emperors to clean up the mess?
El-Melloi II saw through it but didn't say anything. He subconsciously wanted to push off his glasses but found out helplessly... he didn't have them with him.
Looks like I'll have to find time to get a pair.
"Uh, well, right after I finished, something bad happened. It's a large-scale magical reaction. It was attracted by the magic of the Holy Grail of Flaunos just now, but..."
"But what?"
"It's the wyvern that we are all very familiar with..."
Olga Marie said this in a sheepish tone, followed by Fujimaru Ritsuka's self-destructive words.
"You must be kidding! I'm going to puke!"
"Just bear with it for a while. When a new species appears, you, Ritsuka, will be the first one to go up."
"No need, I'm already here."
The most primitive instinct of the body has made Akagi Hinako aware of the abnormalities hidden in the seemingly quiet streets. This time, many large-scale magic reactions have appeared. Just walking around has attracted so many fantasy species...
"It must have been summoned by Flaunos. Although there is no information related to it, the monster is rushing towards you. It is very fast!"
"What kind?"
"It's a bit of a hodgepodge, a patchwork of various creatures mixed together?"
"That's Chimera."
Aku Hinako pushed up her glasses and looked at Ritsuka who was still in contact with Chaldea.
"Fujimaru Ritsuka, it's time to make a decision."
"Senior Aku Hinako, please take Lady Boudica and Elizabeth with you and Ophelia to deal with them. I will go to Hagia Sophia with Mash, Lady Nero, Lord El-Melloi and Tamamonomae to deal with No. 64 Flaunos."
In the control room, Olga Marie, who had not spoken yet, looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka who had already made the arrangements, and gave up the idea of micro-managing everything herself.
"Master No. 48 has already graduated."
"It's possible that she was at the maximum level from the beginning. Otherwise, she wouldn't have let the other two chosen ones obey her, right?"
"If this continues, there will be less and less we can do, Romani, and then we will be out of work."
"Can I fast-forward this a little bit?"
"That's not up to us."
Fujimaru Ritsuka left, and they started running and lost their sight at the corner of the street. Aku Hinako stretched and looked at the approaching fantasy species, becoming slightly excited.
"Elizabeth, is everything okay?"
"I'm not good at dealing with monsters. But it doesn't matter. It's not bad to deal with enemies other than humanoids occasionally. After all, it's the fawn's trust."
"Then Lady Boudica, I'll leave Ophelia to you."
"Wait...wait, Miss Aku Hinako, Elizabeth. What do you mean? Aren't we fighting together?"
"That is exactly what I said, Lady Boudica."
Ophelia smiled bitterly. Who could have imagined that the gentle-looking Akai Hinako would be a hidden fighter in their team?
Come to think of it, it seems like someone didn't show up from the beginning to the end...Who was it?
PS: I went to get my computer repaired, and I need to replace this laptop. Do you have any recommendations?
Chapter 207 Three Minutes of Blackness
(Finally fixed, back like lightning)
"ended."
Constantine's sword pierced his shoulder, the place where an unknown surgeon-priest had completely changed his fate on that rainy night in the past.
"You are really amazing, Constantine. Should I say you are cruel or kind?"
Alvin was knocked to the ground, lying on the ground with a calm expression; from the very beginning of the battle, he understood that this was a trap set by Constantine for himself:
First, he aroused the so-called "anger" through words, and then forced me to fight him with a sword in the name of a duel. Growing up in the new century, I naturally could not compare with a warrior like him who had received training and had experienced many battles.
But Alvin chose to accept Constantine's plan and was willing to do things he was not good at.
"Mr. El-Melloi II said, Alvin, you are a contradictory guy. You clearly wanted to do things that could change your fate, but in the end you still chose the original option."
"What on earth are you, no, what on earth are you afraid of? Why would you turn around and walk towards the darkness behind you after seeing the light of dawn?"
"Either continue to move forward towards the light, or never see hope from the beginning, Alvin Vasak, you damned pagan, your notoriety is known to everyone from Ireland to China."
"And what about you, Constantine Dragaces Palaiologos? What are you? Emperor of the Roman Empire? Or the so-called mayor of Constantinople?"
"Wake up, foolish Prince Moria! Without my mission to the entire Eastern Mediterranean, do you think you could have survived until today with just the few men under your command and the so-called Wall of Sighs?"
"I think what Fatih said is right. You go out of the city now and tell him that you will sell him Constantinople and the crown of the Roman Empire, and let the conqueror rebuild the Sultanate of Rum. Wouldn't it be better for you to become the despot of Namoria?"
"Shut your stinky mouth, you idiot."
Constantine roared, and he rotated the blade, which cruelly cut off the muscle fibers bit by bit, and then pierced through the armpit. The muscles in the broken arm immediately spasmed into a horrible curl, and blood gushed out and splashed all over him.
"There's something wrong with your right hand."
"It worked after all, and you won, Constantine. But as I said, should I say you were cruel or merciful?"
Alvin closed his eyes. He felt his consciousness was a little fuzzy, but his brain was very clear and became extremely excited. He knew that this was a symptom of excessive blood loss.
"Both. Alvin Vashak, do you know why I opened the door?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know."
He felt a little tired now.
"If one day, in Chaldea, you complete the summoning of heroic spirits, and the 'Restorer of Rome Constantine XI' that you summoned is really the Constantine you are familiar with?"
He didn't say anything, as if he had fallen into a coma.
"Well, it seems that this question is a little premature for both you and me, but today only, I will die with Rome."
After that, Constantine kept on talking for a long time, and when he turned around, he found that Alvin had completely fainted.
"Soldier! Please carry Mr. Alvin to the rear for medical treatment!"
He called two soldiers over, and without noticing anything special about them, asked them to carry Alvin away.
"I almost forgot, there is also this. Consider it as his reward."
Constantine took off his purple robe and covered him with it, and the two soldiers then carried Alvin out.
"What a bad taste, two Basilius come to serve as soldiers..."
He watched the purple robe disappear from his sight and turned around again. This time, no one could stop him.
For the entire Christian world, May 1453, 5 was undoubtedly a date that no one wanted to mention. According to Galata, from the time when the World Tree was almost cut off with one blow to the sudden and complete collapse, only three minutes had passed.
This is also the earliest black three minutes.
This day happened to be the feast day of Saint Theodosia, whose veneration had been faithfully handed down through centuries of fervent faith. The facade of the church was adorned with early summer roses. Inside the church, candlelight flickered in the short summer night at the saint's tomb.
Ritsuka Fujimaru pushed open the door of Hagia Sophia, and in the candlelight, Flaunos was sitting inside.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Flaunos."
“Do you know the meaning of this church?”
"I don't know, and I don't want to know. Even if I know, what difference does it make? Notre Dame buried Andusias, and you are buried in Hagia Sophia. You should feel honored, Flaunos."
"You Chaldea are really funny, and so are you, Master No. 48. Do you think you can stop me by gathering a bunch of mediocre servants?"
"People always grow up, Flaunos. You are not the professor named Leif Lenore, and I am not the 48th Master who knows nothing."
Ritsuka looked straight at Flaunos with her eyes as sharp as torches, her eyes firm and calm, her combat uniform simple and casual, her expression extremely natural and calm, her posture elegant and calm, everything that Fujimaru Ritsuka had paid for in the past became her capital to lead everyone forward today.
That's right, look at it like that, just like he did at that time; Fujimaru Ritsuka, you can do it.
"...very much, Romani."
Olga Marie looked at Ritsuka who faced Flaunos without flinching, and sighed from the bottom of her heart. She didn't dare to think about what would have happened next if she hadn't kicked Ritsuka out of the control room at that time.
"what?"
"Don't you think Ritsuka is very similar to him? Same faint smile, same indifference to praise or criticism, same calmness, achieving her goals in a leisurely manner. Same resilience, same calmness and composure. It's hard to imagine that this is just a student he has spent three months training. In my opinion, she already has the qualifications to be in Group A."
"That's a high compliment for Ritsuka, but how much emotion is involved here, Olga Marie?"
"——This is the conclusion I came to after excluding the emotional aspect. Fujimaru Ritsuka is really excellent, so excellent that the word 'excellent' is a bit inappropriate. He is like the savior in all myths and legends, born to save the world."
Romani answered casually, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart. Just now when she was talking about "him", she was thinking very disappointingly about the "human body of the Demon Pillar" who had not appeared until now.
Although the number of times the two of them have met can be counted on two hands, she still can't help but think of him most of the time. This is something Romani Achiman cannot understand.
I clearly belong to a person who has gone away, but now I can't help but develop unnecessary feelings for that person.
What is this, an urban TV series at 8 o'clock in the evening prime time?
Of course, Lixiang didn't know what the older single woman Romani was thinking. If possible, she really wanted to go up and tear the opposite Flaunos apart with her bare hands like in the game.
Too bad this isn't the case.
"Yes, you have indeed changed. After Paris, you have grown a lot. But pointless struggle will cause pointless pain. You don't even know this. Your ignorance is really shameful."
"So, your purpose has not changed at all until now."
"Didn't I say that? My goal has already been achieved. If you really want to ask, I should say this, Master No. 48."
"'What is your philosophy for destroying humanity?' Even if you ask me that, I have no reason or right to answer you."
"And you still misunderstood. Recover the Holy Grail, repair the singularity, protect humanity, protect human reason? Foolish. There is nothing you can do anymore."
"Resistance is meaningless. The outcome is already determined. You are meaningless and incompetent!"
"Now! Let me let you, a group of people who are about to disappear miserably, experience the favor of my king!"
"Fu, Fuwu! [What is this thing that is so ugly!]"
Chapter 208: Seeing the Essence Through Phenomena
"Fu, Fuwu! [What is this thing that is so ugly!]"
"I know what you mean, Fufu. This thing is really ugly. I wonder if there was something wrong with the aesthetics of ancient Israel at that time."
Although she said words of disgust, the light in Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes could not be concealed no matter what.
Alvin’s words from that day still echo in my ears.
"Professor Leif is an extraordinary person. We met once before the second singularity... In a corner of the control room, he was talking to himself, and I was in front of him."
"Then that time?"
"Just at this moment!"
"It's so similar!"
"Like! Very similar! But now there's something missing."
"You're not referring to the fact that it was taken away by Altira's sword on the spot?"
"of course not."
"what is that?"
"Lixiang, don't move around here. I'll go get you a seat."
The blood-red power spread out, and the power that seemed to be born for destruction enveloped Flaunos. Then, huge pillars stood in the Hagia Sophia.
This pillar of flesh on a black base has countless huge scarlet eyeballs, and the nothingness beneath the base seems to give it an inherent impression of being rootless, but if you look down on it because of this... it doesn't seem to be a big deal.
"Ritsuka, I admire your inner strength, but I really can't stand it. The guy in front of me is uglier than any monster in the world!"
The Astronomical Monarch simply could not tolerate this extremely advanced aesthetic, and the entire control room was filled with voices of “Turn it off, turn it off, you must turn it off!”
"Haha! Hahahaha! That's right! It is this ugliness that will completely destroy you!"
"This reaction, this magic power... It's neither a Servant nor a Phantasma! And it's certainly not a familiar! Is this the reaction of a true 'devil' in the legend?"
Compared to the magus who was disgusted from the bottom of their hearts at first sight, the heroic spirits clearly saw through his true nature at a glance.
