"H-how...how is it? Is there anything?" Parvati asked.
“…” Yagyu Tajima-no-kami frowned, but the blade did not convey any strange feeling.
"It's...unfortunately, there's no reaction at all. It's not because there's anything wrong with Mr. Yagyu's sword, but rather because it's been subjected to some kind of special seal!" Mashu analyzed, looking at the data displayed on the screen.
"I miscalculated. I couldn't even defeat such demonic arts with a single flash. Has my strength declined since my death...?"
Soon, Sion began to analyze the structure of the wall and obtained a clue: there was a keychain on the snow-white wall, and the special key was a flower card.
Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others quickly collected all the karuta cards and placed them inside the snow-white wall. Everyone entered a strange room, where the walls were covered with bright red demonic patterns, and an enormous female ghost statue sat there.
After Fujimaru Ritsuka entered, a magical reaction appeared on the female demon statue that Kama had placed there.
Dozens of enormous, ghostly monsters charged out.
Amidst the flashing swords and the rain of bullets, the heroic spirits fought fiercely against the monsters, and after a short while, they successfully obtained the most special inro.
Fujimaru Ritsuka realized she heard nothing. This time there was no sound at all—no sound of the Tokugawa shogun's pain, no sound of the mysterious woman.
“It’s engraved with…’Kyoki. That must be what we’re looking for,” said Yagyu Tajima-no-kami.
“But it hasn’t proven whether our idea is correct yet.” Sion adjusted the device to spirit particle antivirus mode and examined the structure of the incense burner in Fujimaru Ritsuka’s hand to see if it was a trap: “Hmm, scan, scan. No mental pollution, no spiritual trap.”
"Overall, there is nothing... dangerous. However—as a magician from the Atlas Institute, I must shamefully admit that there are still many unsolved mysteries surrounding the 'Tokugawa-ification.' Since it is a completely new concept, at this stage, we simply do not have a perfect benchmark to measure it."
"These generals' inro might cause unforeseen side effects. According to Kama's report, the Tokugawa influence so far seems to be due to their corruption after entering this labyrinth... Hmm. I don't want to make you all uneasy, but I still think it's important to be clear that absolute safety cannot be guaranteed at this time."
"Now is not the time to hesitate. If this is the only way to fight Kama, then we have no choice but to use it." Fujimaru Ritsuka said firmly, willing to accept any risks. This was the only chance, and the last chance.
“That’s right. In the end, this is the only option we have. Although I always feel that our choices are limited, the ‘Ooku’ is, after all, enemy territory, no, the enemy itself. It’s inevitable that we will fall into a series of disadvantageous situations. Now we can only do what we can, right?”
“Then, I'll begin embedding this into your Mystic Code.” Sion gave a thumbs up. Let's get started! “Of course, just like the previous Inro…”
It won't have any effect on the general's soul itself, don't worry!
The new Inro quickly merged with the Mystic Code, and Mash observed a very distinctive magical wavelength on Fujimaru Ritsuka's Mystic Code.
"Despite the ritualistic act of infiltrating the Great Inner Palace... the magical aspect is in reverse phase!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka challenges the output mode of his Mystic Code. The final battle is about to begin. He activates maximum output mode and is about to risk his life once again.
The protagonists of other worlds have cheat codes and can spend money, but Fujimaru Ritsuka can only burn her own life and destiny power. I really don't know how many years Fujimaru Ritsuka will be able to live after everything is over...
“Very good. In other words, this is the nature of ‘anti-Tokugawa’... With a little adjustment, it might be possible to more efficiently transform it into a wearable technique. Similar to the feeling of applying a Tokugawa coating technique.”
Sion was very satisfied with the effect of the Mystic Code on Fujimaru Ritsuka, which was very effective against the Great Inner Palace.
"Isn't this the power we've been looking for?! This is amazing!!! Miss Sion, this is really great!" Mata Hari said happily, now she could finally teach that annoying Kama a lesson.
“Gradually moving away from death…that’s…wonderful…” Scheherazade’s heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally began to settle down. If she could avoid death, she really didn’t want to die.
She is very similar to Stella from the Gundam world, also a beautiful girl who is extremely afraid of death. However, Scheherazade's current status is that of a married woman.
She was summoned to Chaldea in her appearance as the King's wife.
"If there's anything I'm still not satisfied with, it's that I actually wish I had something... something that could completely remove the Tokugawa Transformation Technique that corrupted Fujimaru Ritsuka's entire body. If all the mental corruption could be removed, the chances of winning over the Fallen Beast Kama would greatly increase." Sion looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with regret. This kind of magical female attire didn't satisfy her. It was a pity that Da Vinci wasn't here.
Otherwise, if she combined her skills with those of Leonardo da Vinci, she could definitely improve the performance of this magical costume by about 40%.
As a meticulous scientist, she could only suppress her deep distress as she looked at this less-than-perfect magical costume.
"Huh—??? Even Miss Sion can't remove the mental pollution from Master?" Mata Hari couldn't help but feel disappointed. If the mental pollution couldn't be removed, Master would be affected again if he encountered Kama, and her "Do Not Disturb" technique would cause him great suffering...
"Yes, it's a real shame. There's not enough time and information to specifically analyze mental pollution. Right now, we can basically only analyze what's inside the Inro. Strictly speaking, its focus is more on the outside... So I'm hesitating whether to use it as a barrier against Kama's interference technique, or to use it for a more effective purpose. But from a defensive standpoint, this is the only thing we can do for now. We absolutely mustn't touch the switch that might cause a malfunction."
"However, this brand-new Mystic Code seems to be able to gather power and launch attacks like rune bullets. I'm counting on you for the rest, Fujimaru Ritsuka, please be careful!" Sion said regretfully.
The computational and simulation tasks currently assigned to her spiritual quantum computing device are already fully booked.
She really wished she could have a calculator comparable to the lunar celestial body quantum computing device. But alas, if computing power wasn't enough, she'd have to rely on her brain.
"Well, is the effect good enough now? This might... have a miraculous effect on Kama?" Fujimaru Ritsuka cautiously asked Sion.
He feared that Sion might have forgotten some crucial information, so he repeated what he had previously told him: the people of Edo in the 17th century were all kind...

Kaguya-sama: Love Is War timeline.
"Something's not right, I still feel something's not right!!" Fujiwara Chika felt that Chaldea's actions were still strange, and they still showed an aura of being clearly orchestrated by someone else!
Why did Kama specifically choose where to put things? Hiding them anywhere would be better than placing them inside white walls, right?
"Moreover, the facilities here are clearly meticulously arranged by Kama, just like a malicious level designed by a game designer to cause players pain."
"Could a game developer who designs a system where you can't advance to the next level without breaking the rules really have such a simple mindset? Would she really place something so important in such an obvious and easily accessible place?"
Fujiwara Chika analyzed it from the perspective of a game producer. Although she was a creator of trashy RPG games and her games were terrible and not fun, her vision was still very unique.
This is something she earned through her academic achievements!
"But there's nothing we can do about it. Even if players know the game developers did this on purpose, they still have no choice but to obediently accept what the game developers have to do..." Ishigami Yu said.
"If there were an easy way to clear the stage, Chaldea wouldn't have chosen the Inro, which involves so much uncertainty..."
"Waaaah, even beasts, who are the evil of humans, are so intelligent! Sesshouin Kiara, Kama is too dangerous. If we send Fujimaru Ritsuka with her current fighting strength to challenge the final boss, she's bound to lose!?" Hayasaka Ai said in a panic.
She was also afraid that if Kama succeeded, Kama's power would affect other human worlds.
She didn't want to be captured by Kama and made into a maid in the Great Labyrinth, absolutely, absolutely not.
Dragon Ball, World Martial Arts Tournament timeline.
Bulma looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka on the screen. The way this gadget was made was truly amazing. Although it wasn't as convenient as the mini capsules, it was still quite impressive.
"Now that all the items have been collected, they should have a way to defeat Kama, right? Kama seems to be full of weaknesses right now. I feel like she's about to suffer a setback, just like Sesshouin Kiara."
She wants to exchange technology with Chaldea. She will provide Chaldea with some technologies that Chaldea needs, but Chaldea will have to pay her for the technology patents.
She will also pay the Chaldea the necessary compensation.
Cute Bulma, still a young and adorable girl, wants Sion and Da Vinci to help her modify the Dragon Radar.
"Mmm mmm..." Little Goku ate heartily at the dinner table. "Although I also want to fight Kama, I still have to participate in the World Martial Arts Tournament!"
"Waaaa, Fujimaru Ritsuka is amazing! She hasn't eaten for so long, but she's not hungry at all. If it were me, I would have been starving and unable to move on the ground."
Yamcha picked his teeth with a toothpick in his hand, a sly smile playing on his lips. He thought to himself, "Chaldea is such a great place. If Fujimaru Ritsuka can really defeat Kama, then I can go work at Chaldea, right? With so many beautiful ladies around, they'll definitely fall for a man as skilled in martial arts as me."
"Then, I can train Fujimaru Ritsuka as Chaldea's martial arts instructor, and after building a good relationship with him..."
I'm sorry, Chaldea already has Dr. Roman the Boxer, so we don't need Yamcha.
Seek encounters in the dungeon world.
The Great Labyrinth, Scheherazade, Mata Hari Timeline.
"You're really full of energy, it disgusts me... Can't you put your energy into indulging in pleasure? Can't you become incompetent people who don't want to do anything but enjoy wealth and luxury?"
"Ah~~ Ah~~ I see. It's because you're all incompetent, brainless idiots that you've been making useless struggles, right? That little girl named Mashu originally had a Heroic Spirit within her, but now it's gone. Hehehe, I think I understand why that Heroic Spirit disappeared."
Kamaru mocked the Chaldea Heroic Spirits and Fujimaru Ritsuka's efforts in a sarcastic tone. The scene of their hard work and enthusiasm was so moving that it almost made her vomit her dinner from the night before.
"It's useless, it's useless. Getting the Inro is useless, fighting with everything is useless, using the Command Seals is useless. It's all a waste of time."
"Be captivated, be intoxicated by my love. Don't make me waste my time leading you to depravity anymore. I designed this Great Labyrinth precisely so that you humans could automatically fall into depravity within it!!"
"However, your energetic and hardworking appearance makes me love you even more during moments of disappointment and despair."
Code Geass: Lelouch, the final timeline.
"Hmm, I wonder if Geass will work on the Fallen Beast. There is no C consciousness in that world, but there is a restraining force. The two are very similar, both being collections of human desires, so it should be effective."
Lelouch stood in front of the full-length mirror wearing a bathrobe, looking at the Geass reflected in his eyes.

"..." Kasuga no Tsubone looked somber and listless, and remained silent.
"Lord Afu, is something wrong?" Yagyu Tajima-no-kami asked.
“If I said I didn’t mind, I would be lying,” Kasuga Tsubone said. “But as I said, the most important thing now is to rescue Lord Iemitsu. I will make a firm decision!”
She looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka, then at Shion, and asked nervously, "...And then! As the wet nurse, I will ask the children questions. Please don't lie, answer me honestly! Can we win? Can we defeat the Demon King? Can we...?"
"This..." Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't know how to answer Kasuga Tsubone. He had the courage to confront Kasuga Tsubone, but he didn't have the courage to guarantee that he was 100% certain he could rescue Iemitsu and defeat Kasuga Tsubone...
Mashu, combining the existing combat strength, told Kasuga Tsubone her current analysis:
"...It's impossible to say for sure. All I can say is that we're finally qualified to step onto the 'battlefield.' From a strict combat strength analysis, our chances of victory are only fifty percent, or—"
“Thank you very much, Lady Mash. Thank you for your honest answer. Although the battle was entirely left to Lord Pal, I was there at the time. I know very well what a terrible threat the enemy we faced was. But we had no choice but to send young people like you to such a dangerous place, to such a desperate situation.”
"All I can do now is to do what I can," Kasuga Tsubone said.
“Even if you have your own reasons for fighting, I still cannot stand by and watch you take such a high-risk gamble… I cannot let your young lives be sent to your deaths. Please make your judgment carefully. Although it is only temporary, this is a request from the wet nurse who guided you here.”
“Miss Kasuga Tsubone… I understand. Don’t worry, this time we have a better grasp of the situation in the Ooku labyrinth and won’t be in such a passive position again,” Fujimaru Ritsuka said with a smile.
“We have a chance of winning,” Yagyu Tajima-no-kami said, looking at Kasuga no Tsubone. “We have obtained this inro. That is an indisputable fact. Since that is the case, we are confident. Therefore, we now have a full chance of winning, a 10% chance of winning.”
"What?! Lord Tajima-no-kami, are you serious? You're not just trying to comfort me, are you?!" Kasuga no Tsubone asked Yagyu Tajima-no-kami in surprise.
"We were just one step away from fully reviving Lord Goldruff. We failed in the end. But for the next battle, we have our lord at full strength. As long as our lord fights bravely and doesn't back down, we won't lose. I firmly believe that our lord will achieve a resounding victory this time!"
A surge of powerful energy emanated from Yagyu Tajima-no-kami as he spoke each word with unwavering determination and confidence.
This time, his sword will not become heavy again, nor will he give Kama another chance.
"Hehehe"
"Hey... Even though I'm just a third-rate magician, I won't back down when faced with difficulties." Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled sheepishly. Since Yagyu Tajima-no-Kami said so, she had to work with everyone to achieve victory.
“Yes, the battle isn’t just about Master’s strength alone. We can’t forget about us Servants. Even if Master’s power only increases by one, our power might not increase by the same amount.” Scheherazade’s belief was unwavering. This time, she was determined to face death head-on, to break free from the curse of death, and to be with Master and her important companions. “Maybe it will be ten, maybe it will be a hundred. This—is the meaning of our being here.”
“That’s right! No matter how brutal or difficult the battle, we will never think that we are doomed to lose. So it’s okay, we just need to fight with the belief that we will win!” Mata Hari said with a smile.
"...Is that so? Heh. Since we're sure to win, then just pretend I never said those things." Kasuga no Tsubone looked at Yagyu Tajima-no-kami and asked, "Lord Munenori, the you I know is your guide to military strategy. I've never actually seen Lord Munenori on the battlefield..."
"But do those who have honed their swordsmanship to the extreme always reach that level in battle? Like children, like Zen meditation dialogues... It seems a little funny, hehe."
Kasuga Tsubone's face broke into a radiant smile, a kind smile that seemed to stir even her aged soul with renewed vigor.
“Hmm…” Yagyu Tajima-no-kami didn’t know how to answer Afu’s question.
"Anyway, I'm so sorry. I ruined the rare atmosphere. As you get older, you become more of a worrywart, it's such a hassle." Kasuga Tsubone stuck out her tongue, the middle-aged grandma acting cute, she was extremely adorable.
Parvati said, “I understand how you feel. Miss Kasuga no Tsubone is very kind. But, well, don’t worry. We really don’t think we will lose. Because in addition to this force against Tokugawa, we have also gained important combat power. Miss Sion and Miss Mashu… and the useful ‘intelligence’ provided by the two of them.”
She was full of energy and determined to stop Kama, who, relying on his identical body, was doing all sorts of things that would mislead her husband!
She was so glad that she had acted decisively to save Kasuga no Tsubone. It was so good that she had been able to save such a kind girl as Kasuga no Tsubone.
"Yes. We will prepare countermeasures as much as possible. The outcome will definitely be different from last time... no, it will absolutely be different from last time. Please rest assured!"
Mashu said earnestly that she would definitely support them to the very end. Even if it meant accompanying her senior in this way, she would persevere with her senior until the very end and see the fruits of victory blossom together.
“That’s right.” Sion pointed to the deepest part of the Great Inner Palace and shouted, “Alright, we’re finally about to face the final battle. Let’s go!”

Inuyasha timeline.
"The time for the final battle has finally arrived. I wonder if the Demon-Slaying Technique will still be effective against someone like Kama..."
Kagome also wanted to help Fujimaru Ritsuka defeat the terrifying corrupted beast; Kama was simply too strong, too terrifying...
The powerful enemy Naraku and those great demons that she faced alongside Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, and Shippo were already giving her a huge headache.
"Eh—! A boy about my age, Fujimaru Ritsuka, no, isn't Fujimaru Ritsuka even younger than me?? Wow, he's amazing..."
"Hehehe, if we meet again in the future, will Fujimaru Ritsuka call me Kagome-neechan?"
If only she could collect all the Shikon Jewels and eliminate all the evil monsters.
She and Fujimaru Ritsuka are also working hard together. Although they face different difficulties, she is also striving for her life and for her companions.
Inuyasha squatted on the rock, scratching his ears, looking like a human-shaped husky. His adorable appearance made Kagome want to shout, "Sit down!"
The Shining Hathaway Timeline.
"Faced with Kama, an enemy possessing a concept of the universe, even planetary fortress-level energy weapons wouldn't be able to break her body or severely injure her... An intangible being should be immune to all physical and energy attacks. So, what means does Chaldea intend to use to fight Kama now?"
