"...Why!?" Fujimaru Ritsuka asked.
"Why, you ask? Because I poured my heart and soul into transforming it."
"That means I, as a sheep, will also disappear completely!"
Paris, wearing a snow-white top, said, "Um, Master, thank you so much!"
"Paris... are you leaving too?" Fujimaru Ritsuka lowered her head and said sadly, feeling that she had ultimately failed to do anything for everyone.
“Yes!” Paris said, “Ah, but please don’t misunderstand. The final result of giving up one’s life is different from simply giving up one’s life.”
"If I could find another way, I would definitely refuse in every possible way."
"But now, here, in this situation... I'm the only one who can do this. So I will fight. I am a hero, after all."
“Mr. Orion! I’m counting on you now!” Paris was happy to be able to help everyone.
"—Hmm. It won't... be a problem." Orion endured the pain in his right hand, and the agony of his shattered spirit core...
This mighty man, Superman Orion, is now... finished.
"But you're on the verge of collapse. And your right hand... you can't move a single finger..."
“If this continues—” Leonardo da Vinci couldn’t finish his sentence, his eyes welling up with tears…
Inside the submarine, Goldrov's right hand, clenched into a tight fist behind his back, blood trickling from his palm. "...Fujimaru Ritsuka, what are you standing there for?!"
"You still have Command Seals, don't you!? Use all your Command Seals to rouse Orion! Then make him shoot the arrow!!!"
Hearing the director's words, Mashu was very surprised. If it was the effect of a Command Spell, it could indeed be done... but Orion would be in great pain...
“Yes, that’s right. Forcing him to move will probably be very difficult!” Goldruff gritted his teeth, his expression resolute.
He then instructed Fujimaru Ritsuka, "But as a hero!!! There will be moments when you absolutely must stand up!!"
"After experiencing five Lostbelts, you should have witnessed this kind of scene before!!!"
Thinking of Pazuchi's words, and the words of those people, Mash shouted at Fujimaru Ritsuka, "...Master!!!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka bit her lip, blood trickling from it, and looked up at Orion. Raising her right hand, which bore the Command Seal, she took a deep breath and shouted, "—With the Command Seal, Orion, surpass yourself!!!"
"—Reply with the Command Spell—Orion, you must defeat Artemis."
"——Return with the Command Seal——Greece's strongest hunter, Orion——shoot down Artemis!! Failure is not allowed!!"
Here, one seems to see Waver's shadow in Fujimaru Ritsuka, and senses the image of Iskandar, the King of Conquerors, going to fight Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.
The power of the three Command Seals flowed into Orion's body.
Fujimaru Ritsuka entrusted everything to Orion.
Orion carries the destiny of saving humanity on his shoulders.
"Alright! I can force myself to cheer up now, thank you!" Orion laughed heartily, and the surging magic of the three Command Seals instantly healed Orion's injured arm completely.
“Forced tactics won’t work! Go, Orion, shoot down Artemis!” Fujimaru Ritsuka said.
"Just kidding, just kidding!" Orion laughed loudly.
Goldruff looked at Orion with an extremely serious expression. "And then what?"
"Will it work? Will it succeed this time?"
"Yes, I can do it now, Paris!" Orion felt the powerful, surging magic within him and looked at Paris; he was ready.
Paris smiled broadly and chuckled, "—Mm!"
Apollo and Paris merge into one.
Paris and Apollo's bodies transformed into countless golden starlight.
As he departed, Apollo said happily, "I'm even happier than I imagined, humans. Thank you!"
The young Paris sacrificed himself with a brilliant smile and turned into an arrow that struck down the gods.
A golden spiral arrow of the god appeared before Orion.
Orion, with an extremely solemn expression, picked up the arrow and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Artemis—!!!"
The roar reached the sky, shouting towards the distant place, like the roar of a giant dragon.
"Is the reason I'm here now... because I'm a Grand Master? Or because I'm the man who defeated the goddess?"
The answer is definitely both.
"I, in order to truly defeat the moon goddess Artemis, hereby relinquish my crown!!!"
After the Grand Order was returned, endless magical power surged within Orion.
Orion knew...that he must return the crown now in order to defeat the goddess, to save her.
He intended to save it for later battles.
The title of Grand Master is not what I need; the proof of my love can be found on this arrow!
Bang-!
Orion appeared before the crowd in a completely new form, wearing a fur cloak, holding a divine bow, and his injuries fully healed.
Circles of air waves surrounded Orion's body.
Orion looked up, his tiger-like eyes fixed on Artemis in space, and roared into the void, "I will not allow anyone but myself to shoot you down. No one!!!"
"No one but me can draw this bow! No one but me can shoot you down!"
"I was summoned by my own will, and I will also destroy you by my own will!"
The death flash that Mandicardo blocked once again struck Orion who was drawing his bow.
Gazing at the flash of light, Orion fearlessly revealed a heroic smile.
When Orion first arrived in the Atlantic Lostbelt, Artemis asked him why Artemis of Pan-Human History seemed so happy.
That's because Artemis fell in love with someone worthy of her love—Orion.
Artemis of the Lostbelt was very unhappy upon hearing this news, and even wanted to steal Orion's memories.
But she could sense that, although it was unpleasant, it was also very interesting.
"—That's right. You're broken, you're already broken. You've clearly reached your limit. You've clearly already collapsed."
"There was no fun to be had. We drifted in the empty air for a full ten thousand years."
"Just because you're a goddess, you've even lost the concept of asking for help."
"I was so foolish not to realize this, and to refuse to help you because I didn't want to hurt you."
"—At the same time, you are also foolish for not wanting to hurt anyone. The fatal difference between you and pan-human history must lie here."
"Even if it might hurt others, get injured, or be hurt by others, you should still land on the ground."
"So, Artemis, prepare yourself. I'm about to hurt you—"
—!
Orion raised his divine bow, nocked an arrow, and aimed at Artemis, who had been drifting alone in space for ten thousand years. The bowstring was drawn taut, and Paris, in the form of his third Noble Phantasm, the Divine Arrow, was also nocked on the bowstring.
In the twilight, as the sun is about to set, the twilight light reflects the shadow of someone wanting to save their beloved Orion.
"—Fall from the lonely sky, Artemis!!!" Orion cried out to the goddess in the distance, while also whispering to himself, "—I will fall with you."
Orion's belt, made of three stars formed from Orion, shone brightly.
To get to this point, Drake,
Chiyome Mochizuki, Charlotte Corday, Bartholomew, Achilles, Hector, Mandecardo, Paris, Apollo...
They all gave their lives.
Everything was for this moment!
"Noble Phantasm——!"
A third Noble Phantasm that should not exist.
A bow created by the gods, an arrow of heroic spirits, a servant who relinquished his crown.
It was neither hatred nor fighting spirit, neither hostility nor murderous intent.
Shot purely out of love and compassion—
"This is the hunter who pierces through the goddess—!!!!"
The magic power in the surrounding soil, the magic power of the surrounding trees, flowers and plants were domineeringly absorbed by the divine bow.
A burst of golden lightning exploded on the divine bow!
Crack——!!!
"BOOM—!!!!"
The arrow of the god was shot by the divine bow and flew toward Artemis at a speed that could not be seen with the naked eye.
Orion's shot didn't seem like an arrow, but rather like a golden bolt of lightning.
Orion looked up at Artemis in space...
This is an arrow that caused Artemis, the goddess of the moon, to fall.
Artemis realized that it was too late for any action.
It was too late to fight back or dodge.
"You are the gold that pierces through the stars—launch!!!"
However, Artemis still chose to retaliate.
Artemis, utterly bewildered, asked Orion, the one who was about to shoot her down, "Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?"
She couldn't figure it out and couldn't understand this conclusion.
Speaking of things that are incomprehensible, his behavior is equally incomprehensible.
Why are you planning to kill yourself?!
Why would you fight even if it means breaking your oath?!
Why would you shoot an arrow at yourself?!
“I already know. Right then, I already knew! The reason you blew up the terminal along with the island wasn’t out of logic, but because of your emotions, your anger, your—jealousy.”
"As a pure machine, I shouldn't have emotions...!!"
"In that case, for someone with a soul like you, ten thousand years is far too long, far too long...!"
"Do you think I can tolerate you continuing to be in this state?" Orion said to Artemis, who was about to be shot down in space.
Golden light tore through the pure white cannon fire and shot straight into the sky.
Orion's Noble Phantasm advances with speed and destructive power surpassing all things in the world.
These arrows were created for Artemis.
This arrow was shot out because of his deep love for Artemis.
Ignore all of Artemis's defensive measures.
Avoid all the most powerful arrows that are unreasonable and sure to hit.
The inescapable golden light shattered Artemis's divine core.
This attack was enough to tear apart Artemis's outer armor as well.
BOOM——!
Space was enveloped in endless white light.
Artemis's body was completely shattered, and countless mechanical fragments floated in space.
The golden divine core, the size of a car, shattered into fragments of varying sizes.
Artemis understood everything the instant she was struck.
This arrow truly lives up to its name.
It takes everything to shoot
This arrow is Orion's life, a Noble Phantasm that will cost him his life as the price for killing the moon goddess Artemis.
