“I once made a vow,” Mandecardo said softly, standing in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka. “I swear to the heavens and the fairies that I will never use any other sword before I obtain the peerless sword Durandal.”
"And now, I have finally fulfilled this vow. So, well, how should I put it?"
"...Don't look upset. I feel terrible too."
Seeing the tears on Fujimaru Ritsuka's face and sensing her immense resentment, Mandecard said, "Even if you can achieve a proud moment as a hero, as a Master and Servant..."
"But as a friend, it's still very painful to have to leave first."
"But that's precisely why I want to be here—to be a friend who can lend you a helping hand."
"It might be a bit unreasonable to tell you not to care, but let's save the tears for later."
"...Well then, farewell!" Mandecardo's face lit up with an incredibly bright smile, a smile of no regrets. He quickly ran to the peerless sword Durandal, which was stuck in the ground, and grasped it with both hands. "In the name of the oath, I hereby relinquish my Noble Phantasm—'The Oath Without a Sword'."
Mandecardo, holding the now-unwielded Extreme Spear, shouted: "What I wield is the Sword of Oath. The indestructible Extreme Sword."
"To protect my friend, I will unleash its power here!!!"
—The moment when the vows made in life are fulfilled in a perfect form.
What he held in his hand,
It's no longer a wooden knife.
It is a truly peerless sword.
This is a dreamlike Noble Phantasm that even Mandecard himself was unaware of.
The third person in pan-human history to surpass the legendary figure before him—Mandecardo!!!
A hero who protects his friends.
Mandicardo, who once made an incredibly difficult vow.
When the oath is fulfilled, one will gain immense power.
"Second Noble Phantasm—'Peerless Illusion Sword'!" Mandecardo gripped Durandal tightly with both hands. The jet-black blade radiated endless brilliance, so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it. The jet-black blade turned into a golden blade. This was Durandal's original form, its true appearance.
"It's coming!!!!" Mandecardo stepped forward to face the orbital cannon of the moon goddess Artemis!
In an instant, a pure white beam of light robbed Mandicardo of his sight.
The next second, the ability to perceive touch also completely disappeared.
"Ughh ...
Mandicardo's internal organs were ulcerated, and his hearing was shattered.
The goddess's arrows, with their terrifying heat, scorched the skin, tearing flesh and rupturing blood vessels.
"—But—even so, I will absolutely not allow Artemis's main cannon—to harm Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others—!!!!"
"—Please, Orion!!"
The reply that came through eased Mandicardo's expression.
Since that's the case, there's no longer any worry about the future. He entrusted everything to his friends and was willing to die for them.
Mandicardo, but still, I'm so lonely...
A pure white beam of light, and its terrifying aftershocks, completely engulfed Mandecardo's body...
fleeting.
A fleeting moment, like a blink of an eye.
It's just a declaration, just a concept.
It was just something to console myself with.
Even so, I now consider her a friend from the bottom of my heart.
Even though I've never done anything that a friend would do.
Aaaaaaahh ...
"I am doing this not because I am a follower." The endless pain vanished under this realization of helping his dearest friend.
"It's because I'm your friend—!" These were Mandicardo's last words...
Mandecardo returned to the Throne of Heroes with a radiant smile amidst the bombardment of the Moon Goddess. The memories of this place, the memories of the adventures, the memories of being with everyone, would become his invaluable treasure.
The peerless sword Durandal disappeared along with its master, Mandecardo.
Artemis's orbital cannon—was neutralized by Mandecardo!
Orion, Fujimaru Ritsuka, and Mashu, who were behind Mandecardo, were completely unharmed!
He fulfilled his mission; he protected and helped his friends.
“…” Fujimaru Ritsuka’s tears slid down her cheeks, dripping onto the floor tiles. Her hands clenched into fists, Mandecard…

"I want to be a hero like Mandicardo too... Mr. Mandicardo is so cool... He perfectly protected everyone." Bell Craney wiped away his tears, feeling so heartbroken...
Will I encounter something like this in the future?
My companions, one by one, are leaving me...
Bell Craney shimmered with a faint, pure white starlight.
He wanted to be a hero.
He wanted to protect all the important people in his life.
The boy's feelings for the hero, for Mandika
Aldo, Achilles, Drake, Paris, Orion, Jason, Charlotte Corday, Odysseus, and Chiyome Mochizuki all admired these heroes.
If only I could become a hero like that.
Then I can surely come to Miss Ais with dignity and honor.
"Waaaaah... Mandicardo is gone too..." Anya cried her eyes out, burying her face in the table, feeling incredibly sad. One bad news after another was hard for the silly and cute Anya to accept.
In the previous world of Code Geass, such tragic events would usually take a long time to resolve...
Runova wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "How many more times can this god fire... So many people are blocking Artemis's bombardment."
"Go for it... Orion!! You can't let your comrades down after all the sacrifices they've made!!" Lily said.
Shape moon world.
Dr. Roman arrived on the continent of Azeroth and finally met his good friend Malygos. "Phew... the magic here is so abundant. My friend Malygos... truly worthy of being the Blue Dragon Aspect who controls all the magic of Azeroth."
"Hahaha... It's nothing. Magic is as common as eating and drinking for us blue dragons." Malygos chuckled and led Doctor Roman into the heart of the blue dragonflight.
"Let's spar a bit later!! Let's see how your arcane magic is going. I'll fight you in human form!! That'll definitely be a lot of fun. I haven't fought anyone in ages." Malygos's face lit up with excitement, eager for Doctor Roman to play with him.
"Ahem... Well, you'd better go easy on me later. I can only have a few thousand arcane orbs swirling around my body right now, which is still far inferior to yours." Dr. Roman felt exhausted. Seeing the gods of the Atlantic Lostbelt, this sense of crisis kept urging him to become stronger and stronger.
"Don't worry. Even if you get hurt, just soak in the moon elf's spring water and you'll be back to your old self in no time!" Malygos shrugged and said nonchalantly, "When you go back, bring some more water from the Well of Eternity. You can use it to water your plants or something."
"Are you ready!" Dr. Roman took a deep breath, gathering his magical power around his body. "Buzz—!"
Thousands of fist-sized arcane orbs surrounded Dr. Roman.
Malygos smiled, took out his magic staff, and prepared to spar with Doctor Roman in the style of a human mage. "Fireball!"
Malygos and Doctor Roman engage in a friendly magical duel.
Sindragosa busily maintained the magical barrier to prevent Malygos and Doctor Roman's battle from spreading to other areas.
The Atlantic Lostbelt world.
Goldrov stroked his golden beard and nodded with great satisfaction: "Hahahaha!! Well done! As expected of the former king and adventurer, the legendary hero Mandecardo. With a first-rate servant like you, it seems our chances of breaking through the Sea of Despair and cutting down the Imaginary Tree are much higher. You can look forward to my soft and fluffy baked croissants!"
"Mandicardo!! You...you're really amazing!" Orion patted Mandicardo on the shoulder. "Hahahaha!!! It's been great to go on adventures with you guys!"
"Hmph—after all, it's because I'm the leader! You did a good job. Surpassing your own mythical story...it's truly enviable." Jason said smugly, arms crossed.
Charlotte Corday looked at Mandecardo with a sweet smile, "Mandecardo... thank you... thank you for protecting everyone. You're amazing!"
Paris said to Mandecardo in a cute way, "Hey... if only I could summon my brother sooner... that way I might be able to unleash your Noble Phantasm sooner and fulfill your vow."
“Well done, Mandecardo. I can feel that Durandal, the peerless sword you hold, is also very happy. You are absolutely worthy to be Durandal’s master,” Achilles said.
Hearing everyone's words, Mandicardo's face turned red, and he stammered, "Oh no... oh no... I'm such a gloomy character, I'm just not used to... not used to this kind of scene...!"
This is the first time I've received so much praise from so many great heroes.
So many praises for characters with a sunny disposition.
Mandicardo was very shy and embarrassed, and now all he wanted to do was yo-yo.
Fujimaru Ritsuka grabbed Mandecardo's hand, stopping him from leaving. "Mandecardo! Don't run away! Let's all chat all night long! Let's start with the adorable Fou!"
"Fou! Fou." Fou jumped onto Mandicardo's shoulder and rubbed against the man who had surpassed her mythology.
Good, Fufu is very satisfied.
Mashu smiled as she watched this lively scene... It's wonderful, I really hope we can make it to the end together...
Bartholomew, Leonardo da Vinci, and Sherlock Holmes, are fishing at sea aboard the Royal Fortune.
Tonight, I must prepare a sumptuous meal!
Grand Carnival World.
Both Fujimaru Ritsuka (male) and Fujimaru Ritsuka (female) rushed towards Mandecardo, their eyes brimming with tears, shouting, "Mandecardo!!!"
"Master...you guys are like this..."
"I'll be embarrassed..." Mandecardo looked shy, head down, looking at the two Fujimaru Ritsuka clinging to him, and was extremely happy.
"Mandecardo...! That's amazing. You've surpassed the myth of your own life... That's something almost no one can do, surpass their own myth." Gudako looked at Mandecardo with immense admiration.
“Mandecardo… thank you… you are my best friend! You have done so much for me!” Fujimaru Ritsuka, with tears in her eyes, hugged Mandecardo tightly.
Mashu watched this scene with her purple eyes, placing her hands on her heart. "It's so good to be together again..."
Dr. Roman patted Mashu on the shoulder, holding a strawberry cake in his hand. "Here... is today's strawberry cake! If you don't replenish your sugar, you won't have any energy."
"Yes, Doctor...!" Mashu accepted the strawberry cake from Dr. Roman with a bright smile.
Interstellar city Olympus world, God-Breaking Alliance world.
"Ah... the price for shooting down Artemis was truly devastating... what should we do next? And there's Poseidon, the sea god with a screw loose, for him." Edison was frustrated; these gods who preferred long-range attacks.
Why did we come to Earth?
The universe is boundless, is there not a better place than Earth?
If the enemy they faced was not these Olympian gods.
With so many powerful Heroic Spirits like us, surely we wouldn't suffer so many casualties?
Other Lostbelts certainly don't contain terrifyingly intelligent Heroic Spirits like Odysseus or Kael'thas.
"Jason... hang in there... I'm waiting for you here... Jason." Medea looked at the sleeping Jason with teary eyes, praying silently for her beloved.
Minamoto no Yorimitsu said, "It was the right thing to leave them in Atlantis. Otherwise, Fujimaru Ritsuka would not have been able to overcome so many dangers. Mandecardo, Achilles, Bartholomew, Charlotte Corday, Drake, Paris Apollo, Orion, Jason—they could not have successfully reached the island of Nemesis without any one of them."
"Come on...come on!!! I'm waiting for you here, let's rebel against this shitty world together!!!! You have to come back alive!!" In front of Mordred was a breakfast for ten people prepared by Adele.
"Mmm!!" Fran nodded, completely agreeing with Mordred's assessment that the guy really could eat a lot.
Since the video review started playing, Mordred hasn't stopped eating.
And the Storm Queen Artoria was also constantly eating.
Artoria and Mordred eat in sync...it's truly amazing.
The title of Grand Master is not what I need; the proof of my love can be found in this one arrow!
All sacrifices were made for this moment, the moment when the gods were defeated. This is the moment of parting, but it is not the end, but a new beginning!
229 Fall from the lonely sky, Artemis. Eight chapters later, please subscribe!
"There's no time to grieve for a friend's death right now... Fujimaru Ritsuka."
Apollo nuzzled Paris's cheek. "Although we haven't spent much time together, I must take my leave now."
