A compilation of memorable moments from Chaldea's girlfriends showing affection in various dime

"Rather than facing despair and death in the Lostbelts later, why not surrender quickly and fall into depravity? At least you can all live and enjoy yourselves here, right?"

Lord Sesshouin

"...I've been wary of you all along. I'm sorry... but you would never harm my lord. At least not now that you're here." Yagyu Tajima-no-kami said in a deep voice to Sesshouin Kiara.

"Oh dear, Mr. Masamune, I apologize to this evil being. It makes me very embarrassed. Protecting Master is what I, as a Heroic Spirit, should do. Don't worry, I will definitely protect Master's safety here."

Sesshouin Kiara's amber eyes rippled with emotion. She never expected that after she disappeared, Fujimaru Ritsuka would be grieving for her, rather than experiencing the feeling that the troubles around her had finally disappeared on their own.

What a kind person... Ah... No, no, I can't keep looking at Master like this, or I'll lose control and reveal my true nature.

She almost asked Fujimaru Ritsuka if she could hug her for a while, or if Fujimaru Ritsuka could hold the riot fork...

Fujimaru Ritsuka dared not look at Sesshouin Kiara, dared not look into her eyes. Why... why would Kiara-san risk everything to save her?

He drew a conclusion from Sesshouin Kiara's words before she disappeared: if Sesshouin Kiara had given up being a Heroic Spirit, she might have been able to transform into a beast here with Kama.

If only Sherlock Holmes were here.

"Very good. The courage you have shown in the face of difficulties, the calm mind you have maintained, and the determination you have shown in your courage are the magic weapons for mankind to overcome difficulties." The First Emperor was overjoyed to see his people fighting against the corrupt beast.

Chaldea's existence in pan-human history cannot possess too much power, nor can it have too little influence; it must be just right.

Otherwise, this organization, born to save humanity, would inevitably be corrupted.

While external enemies are formidable, there are ways to defeat them. However, a knife from one's own back is impossible to guard against or defend against.

A towering tree rots from its roots and inside out. Once this rot begins to show, it is highly likely that it cannot be saved and the only option is to make the painful decision to cut it down.

If the director Chaldea encounters is an incompetent and foolish human, even if the Heroic Spirits feel dissatisfied, they won't do anything excessive. However, Fujimaru Ritsuka is very likely to lose her life because of an incompetent and foolish commander.

This is just like the seven people chosen by the first director of Chaldea, who were given important responsibilities, but now they have all returned to the history of humankind, which is truly the most ridiculous thing in the world.

Kaguya-sama: Love Is War timeline.

"Why do enemies have more weaknesses when they have more attributes? Shouldn't they be stronger with more attributes?" Ishigami Yu was completely baffled and couldn't understand it at all.

This is understandable, as special attacks only exist in the Type-Moon universe.

The more attributes a being possesses in other worlds, the more versatile and powerful its abilities are. No matter what method is used to target it, the opponent will always find a way to counter it.

A mage who only knows how to conjure fireballs will have no choice but to obediently stick out his butt when he encounters an omnipotent mage.

Of course, the Fireball Cult is another story.

Yu Ishigami believes that this is similar to the hero combinations in Apex Legends. If three people have the same hero, they are not strong. Their compatibility is too poor and their versatility is not good. They are definitely a team that will give away points indefinitely.

Iino Miko stared intently at Kasuga Tsubone. Oh my, Kasuga Tsubone Grandma... I also want her to pat my head, I also want to be praised.

Iino Miko, who desperately craves love, keeps a close eye on Kasuga no Tsubone's every move, her eyes sparkling with countless little stars.

Her parents are busy handling various cases at the court every day, and they usually don't get home until late at night. Even on weekends, they don't have time to get together...

If she met Kasuga no Tsubone, she would definitely show her all her perfect grades from school.

"Well, that's all the information we have. Sion, Mashu, I'm counting on you!" Fujimaru Ritsuka said.

"...Hmm, I get it! Watch me." Sion gave the projection a thumbs up, revealing two small fangs.

Mashu said, "Hmm, if only we could find clues to defeating the Fallen Beast from what we just said..."

“Yes. I’ve found something very suspicious,” Sion said with a smile.

"Huh—!? You found out so quickly!?"

Mashu looked at Sion in surprise. Only a minute had passed. Could Miss Sion also be a detective?

“What exactly is it?” Mata Hari asked.

“I carefully reviewed the information in chronological order. You didn’t notice it because those involved are often blinded, while bystanders see things more clearly. Perhaps only those of us who prepared the data could have noticed this detail. The item you obtained in the Ooku labyrinth—the Inro.”

Kama projected the Inlong in front of everyone, displaying his own thoughts clearly in the form of a mind map: "According to Kama, the Inlong was made from the souls of generals who have been captured from the past to the future."

"It was used as a prong when the Great Inner Palace was built."

“Kama did indeed tell us that,” Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded. “Then…”

"Where is the inlong suspicious?"

“It’s not enough. Something’s missing.” Sion looked at Kasuga no Tsubone with some hesitation, paused for a few seconds, and then said, “To be honest, it’s hard to say this in front of Miss Kasuga no Tsubone…”

"Don't worry about me. The important thing is whether we can rescue our lord," Kasuga Tsubone quickly said. What's going on now? Still concerned about these things?!

She is very anxious right now.

“I see. Then I will tell you. There is one more soul of the shogun that you have not yet found, even though you have already infiltrated the deepest part of the Ooku. The fifteenth shogun, Tokugawa Yoshinobu. The last shogun of the Tokugawa shogunate.”

"The...last...??" Kasuga no Tsubone exclaimed in surprise, "The last" meaning...

"If I weren't a follower, I don't know how I would feel if I heard this. Lord Afu. Please calm down and listen carefully. Two hundred years have passed since the Kan'ei era. The Tokugawa Shogunate ended then."

"What!?" Although she had some suspicions before, she was still very disappointed after it was confirmed. Kasuga no Tsubone looked a little upset. "I understand... I had guessed some of it a long time ago... I just deliberately didn't want to think about it."

"However, rise and fall, success and failure are inevitable. This is a truth of the world. Whether it was Ashikaga or Toyotomi, they all eventually perished."

"To expect that only the Tokugawa era can last forever... that's far too presumptuous of me..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka told Kasuga no Tsubone about some things that happened in the future. After learning about it, she was in some pain, but slowly she became relieved. At least the world in Fujimaru Ritsuka's time had become peaceful.

Shion believed that Tokugawa Yoshinobu, who ended the Tokugawa era, had a special significance. The fact that his inro could not be found was strange, and it might be the way to break the current deadlock.

"According to the investigation, the inro you have obtained so far contains elements symbolizing the reigns of various generals. Based on these examples, we can speculate—that inro... might contain the power to end the Tokugawa shogunate," Sion said, adding that this was something only an observer could clearly see.

Being engrossed in the labyrinth and focused solely on venturing deeper to rescue their Chaldea companions, the group was oblivious to this small detail.

After all, the observant and analytical Heroic Spirit Sherlock Holmes had already been turned into material for the Great Labyrinth by Kama.

I wonder what Kama turned Holmes into—a pillar, a floor, a door, or a lantern?

"Hmm. If Kama is indeed the Ooku, and Tokugawa, then that Ino might have some special effect on him."

The soul of someone who ended a period of history through their own will must have a special effect here, Fujimaru Ritsuka thought, recalling some things she had encountered in the Nordic Lostbelt.

"But where exactly is Tokugawa Yoshinobu's Inro within the Ooku labyrinth? Master and the others have already infiltrated the deepest part of the Ooku labyrinth, they should have visited every room. But they still haven't obtained it..." Mash, could it be that Kama is carrying her with him?

“I know…it should be there.” Yagyu Tajima no Kami said, “I remember there was a very suspicious wall on the road. If something is hidden there…”

"There's a place that looks like a hidden passage!?" Sion smiled with satisfaction. Kama's labyrinth truly lived up to the characteristics of a labyrinthine amusement park in pan-human history, hiding portable passages that could lead directly to the final gate. "This is how a labyrinth should be! Well done, Kama!"

She believes that if Kama were not a fallen beast, but a labyrinth or a game designer, he would definitely be able to design excellent and fun games and labyrinths.

"Ah... I'm sorry, I got distracted. It was something I deliberately hid. It implied that the other party was worried about trouble if they found out." Sion licked his lips. Kama had made a mistake, the same one as Koyanskaya—being too worried, which caused him to give himself away.

"On the other hand, the possibility that it's effective against Kama is getting higher and higher! If Kama is hiding it in the most dangerous depths, we still have no way to get it. This is really good news!"

"So, the next target is to find the hidden Inro, right?! I was worried about what to do next, but it seems we've found a way~~~"

Mata Hari brandished her throwing knives, determined to destroy Kama this time. She wanted to avenge her Master and the Heroic Spirit Sesshouin Kiara.

"Hehehehe! By the way, I have some good news to share. By retrieving the information device embedded in Fujimaru Ritsuka's Mystic Code, I obtained the data table of the labyrinth deep within the Ooku. The noise reduction and wavelength matching have been adjusted to a higher level than before. And it's already completed."

Sion reinstalled the adjusted intelligence device onto Fujimaru Ritsuka's Mystic Code. "So this time our communications can reach the deepest part of the dungeon. Don't worry, we will provide support until the very end and fight alongside everyone!"

"That's great, Miss Sion! So reliable." With Sion and Mash's assistance while Da Vinci was away, it was truly reliable. Fujimaru Ritsuka patted the information device on her shoulder. She also had to thank Sesshouin Kiara for the changes made, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to collect such complete information.

"Although it's tentative... it's already completed."

Input the coordinates of the target location. But this means we have to ask Master to enter the inner palace of the Great Inner Palace a second time…” Mash was still very worried, in case something unexpected happened inside the Great Inner Palace…

"I know what to do now, Mashu, don't worry. Once I know what I'm going to do, I feel much lighter. I'm with everyone, I'll be fine." Fujimaru Ritsuka's face lit up with an incredibly bright smile. Her spirit and strength had fully recovered. Kama, the Fallen Beast, I will definitely defeat you this time.

"Hmm... The method is clear now. At least we won't be at a loss anymore." Yagyu Tajima-no-kami nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mashu-sama. I will protect Master with my life and will not suffer a second loss at the hands of the enemy."

"Although our strength is meager, we will be with you all from the very beginning this time~~," Mata Hari said with a smile.

"Yes. Although I cannot replace Miss Kihara, I will do my best within the limits of not dying..."

Scheherazade took a deep breath, already having several plans in mind, hoping these plans would help the master.

Even the Tokugawa regime, the Kasuga period, would eventually come to an end. I had already imagined it.

"...I heard about it, I understood it, and I accepted it. Although I feel resentful, it is the way of the world after all, and I will not hold a grudge."

"But what exactly is this feeling? I'm like this now..." Kasuga Tsubone placed her right hand on her chest, feeling her heart become calm and peaceful. "Why do I feel a sense of relief?"

Perhaps it was because I untied the knot in my heart, untied the knot that had been troubling me as I lay in the hospital bed.

Kasuga no Tsubone's face once again showed a kind smile as he followed Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mata Hari, and Scheherazade, quickly heading towards the Ooku labyrinth.

The Great Inner Palace, Yagyu Tajima-no-kami, Mata Hari's Timeline.

Inside the temporary magic field.

Fujimaru Ritsuka said, "Then let's go to the place where this wall is now and find the last Inro."

“The tools Kama hid might just become a weapon to defeat him. Hmph! Kama actually puts something so useful where we can get it; he really looks down on us,” Mata Hari said.

"The more triumphant the enemy is, the more they believe they cannot lose, the more opportunities we have to create a miracle. Fortunately, we are not facing the kind of ruthless enemy who only seeks annihilation." Yagyu Tajima-no-kami, if Kama's goal was to kill Fujimaru Ritsuka, then... Pan-human history has already failed.

But she deliberately tried to seduce the lord, wanting him to submit to her charms, thus giving him the opportunity to reverse the situation.

Sesshouin Kiara looked into the depths of the Ooku labyrinth with a half-smile. Kama had previously mocked her for being too smug, which led to her being ganged up on by the Heroic Spirits and ending up in such a state. Now it seemed that Kama's level was about the same as hers.

Without BB's help, Sesshouin Kiara's plan would have succeeded long ago.

She had already shown a very pathetic side to Fujimaru Ritsuka, and this time she wanted Kama to experience what it felt like to be punished by his master.

This is true happiness.

It's a pity that when she appeared at Chaldea, she didn't see the man who was so devoted to her.

Sion said, "I see... I understand! Using the karma created by the soul of the last Tokugawa shogun to end the Ōoku labyrinth, which has Tokugawa attributes, does seem like a feasible solution. The Ōoku labyrinth was also built using karma and the people of the Tokugawa era as materials."

"The problem is, after obtaining Yoshinobu's inro, how should we use it to sever the connection between Kama and Tokugawa? This still needs further investigation."

Matsudaira Nobutaka's lips curled into a smile; finally, he saw a chance to turn the tide. "Cough cough cough... cough cough cough..."

Deep within the Great Inner Palace.

"Hmm... Should I go out now and hide the Inro somewhere else? That thing is really troublesome..." Kama Moro looked at the screen with great difficulty. She knew the power of this thing and knew that it would be harmful to her.

But if she moves the things now, wouldn't that be telling Chaldea that she's afraid of this method?!

Wasn't that a sign of weakness towards Parvati? Wasn't that a veiled proof that his Great Labyrinth was not fully perfect and still had fatal flaws?

This was about face, about the face between her and Parvati. Kama Moro gritted his teeth, looking angrily at Sesshouin Kiara in the scene. This woman was dead, yet she still told Fujimaru Ritsuka such important information.

"Huff... huff..." Kama Moro clenched his right hand tightly. "No, I can't move the Inro. If this thing gets obtained, I will face failure!? Doesn't that mean I'm weaker than Sesshouin Kiara?"

"Hehehe, it's alright. I'll let you have Tokugawa Yoshinobu's inro. Even if you get it, you won't be able to use it effectively, nor will you be able to sever my connection with the Ooku labyrinth. Of course, I won't be so polite next time we meet."

Kama resumed his lazy, relaxed demeanor, lying in the lotus pond playing in the water with his swimming ring. "Come on, come on, let me see what you've got."

What can you do after arriving in Inro? That Heroic Spirit who makes weapons and tools, Leonardo da Vinci, isn't with you right now.

Suddenly, Kama revealed a devilish smile. "Hehehe, did you think I would say that? Did you think I would be so surprised? Did you think I would be afraid?"

"That thing, I placed it there on purpose, so you could obtain it. You are still walking on the spiderweb I spun. Poor, foolish humans, thinking your wisdom surpasses that of the gods?"

29 Is the Fallen Beast doomed? A stunning plot twist x the terrifying Kama

Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mata Hari, Yagyu Tajima-no-kami, and the others re-entered the Ooku labyrinth and quickly moved toward the suspicious white wall.

This time, they had already gained experience in breaking the deadlock and quickly broke through layer after layer of rules.

"Haha~, this is the place. Oh dear, it looks very suspicious!" Sion looked at the white walls in front of him, the decor style that was out of place here.

"Okay, what should we do? Should we break down this wall?"

Mata Hari looked at the wall and knocked on it; it seemed to be just an ordinary wall.

“No. I will not rashly cut it down.” Yagyu Tajima-no-kami shook his head and said, “Because this Ooku was built using people related to Edo Castle and Chaldea as materials.”

"Even if it's used as material for the Great Inner Palace, it still needs to be broken down into its smallest constituent units. It has nothing to do with physical bonding, so even if you're chopping down a wall..."

"The person used in this part will not die either." Sion quickly explained the principle to Yagyu Tajima-no-kami.

Whoosh—! A flash of silver light appeared, leaving a slash mark on the wall.
