Earth Princess? No, it's Fujimaru Ritsuka!

Noknare's eyes flickered slightly.

"So, you mean love can hurt people—that's what it means?"

The pink-haired girl said thoughtfully, "I think I understand now..."

Love can indeed hurt.

Fujimaru Ritsuka witnessed it firsthand in London: a girl driven mad by love transformed into a demon that destroyed the world.

"—It's like charcoal fire, capable of warming hearts, or it can burn people to a crisp."

Shakespeare summarized the previous singularity.

Fujimaru Ritsuka felt that this summary was indeed very apt.

"So that's how it is. My previous queen, Mebu, lost her will to fight and her Dao heart was shattered because of her lover's betrayal [death].

She forgot that her lover was human, so just as she won a great victory and was about to turn around to share her joy with him...

Her lover, however, had reached the end of his life and died amidst her triumphant happiness.

This is why Noknare looks down on, despises, and even dares not look at humans.

Humans are fragile and weak beings.

For them, forging bonds means facing unimaginably painful separations.

""

Fujimaru Ritsuka sensed the scent of fatalism.

"What's with that expression? Hehe... Don't worry."

Noknare curled her lips into a smile, put her hands on her hips, looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka, and puffed out her chest:

"As for me, I will absolutely, absolutely never fall in love with humans."

Noknare has absolutely no intention of finding a lover before becoming the true ruler of the country.

what ever.

Fujimaru Ritsuka twitched the corner of her mouth.

What a troublesome woman.

"Is it really possible... for me to see Sita again?"

Rama stared at Fujimaru Ritsuka in shock, his hands trembling involuntarily. He had already thought that knowing Sita was safe and sound was an immense relief, but if it really was...

His hands were shaking.

Rama was completely at peace at that moment.

I was so calm that I couldn't even feel myself anymore.

It felt like a string in my brain had suddenly snapped, and I didn't even belong to myself anymore.

"Because you and Miss Sita are [the same Servant],"

In that case, you will share the same Spirit Origin, becoming a "dual Servant," just like Chaldea's "Marie Ridge Bernie."

Fujimaru Ritsuka continued to ask:

"You cannot be separated, nor should you be separated... Even your spirit origins are bound together by life and death, is that acceptable?"

"Of course I can accept it! I can completely accept it. I'll do anything as long as I can be with Sita again!"

This moment, this moment has been waited for far too long.

"Your power will be reduced by half as a result. Can you accept that?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked directly into Rama's eyes.

The other person choked up as if their throat was being squeezed.

He looked down at his hands.

"Chaldea needs my strength... How could I possibly act for my own selfish gain—"

boom!

"Ouch, that hurts! I am the King of Kosala, why are you hitting my head again!"

Nightingale punched Rama hard on the head.

"What do you think we came here for?!"

"What about the people who helped you?"

"They are not helping you because of your strength, but because you need help."

Nightingale looked at Rama with cold eyes, "This is your choice. What kind of hero are you, being so indecisive?!"

Caster, waving his staff as well, said earnestly:

"That's right! If you can't even take that final step, you absolutely won't let me off easily!"

Rama certainly did not hold back his power.

"My power is meant to protect and pursue Sita. Now that we're just one step away, how could I possibly disagree?"

"Then there's no problem with the second doubt, the third substance, the paint, the IX, and the Shaanxi 2!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka said with a smile, "Let's begin now!"

Rama felt as if a tremendous burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

As long as I can be with Sita, all problems will cease to be problems.

"Senior, is everything alright?"

Mashu asked somewhat nervously, "Mr. Rama and Ms. Sita are finally reunited, but I still feel..."

The girl felt that something was wrong.

I have a feeling that something important has been overlooked.

Can the curses in mythology really be lifted so easily?

But now, we can only choose to trust our seniors, right?

On the Chaldea side.

Sajou Aika crossed her arms and rested her chin on her hand, looking somewhat listless.

Fujimaru Ritsuka certainly doesn't have the means to communicate proactively, but Sajou Aika can convey her thoughts to Ryougi Shiki.

However, Ryougi Shiki doesn't really like her, and the two of them have always kept to themselves, maintaining a clear separation.

Except for that crazy Sajyou Aika [prototype] who insisted on going to her own death.

Are you confident in doing this?

Dr. Roman swallowed the air in his mouth silently.

"Anyway, it was that woman who did it, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Sajō Aika lay listlessly on the table and said, "As for what happens next, let's see what Ritsuka decides."

"Report! An anomaly has occurred in the Spirit Origin reaction. The values ​​observed in Sheba are starting to rise; something is about to happen!"

Munir's tense voice instantly shattered the tranquility of the control room.

Dr. Roman straightened up, his breathing becoming more rapid, his eyes fixed on the virtual screen in front of him.

"Spiritual origin, is it Rama's spiritual origin?!" Dr. Roman asked hurriedly.

"More or less, but not on Rama's side, but on Sita's side!"

Is it about to begin?

Regardless of the circumstances, simply breaking the curses of Sita and Rama was a miracle in itself.

Whether it's a wish or a pursuit.

If only a real miracle could happen in this very moment.

"call..."

It would be too embarrassing to consider whether I'm confident now.

Moreover, the actual operation was not carried out by Fujimaru Ritsuka, but by someone behind her.

The connection between Sita and Rama, the curse, can only be revealed the moment they meet and become aware of each other.

That is--

Sita opened his eyes and saw Rama;

Rama opened his eyes and looked at Sita.

The moment when they only had eyes for each other

The curse of "inability to coexist" will only be revealed at this moment.

At this moment, no matter how much content or words are said, they will all seem pale and powerless.

“It’s alright. As long as I can see Sita with my own eyes, even if I fail in the end... I won’t regret it.”

With this understanding, Rama and Sita officially met here.

The petite girl with orange-haired twin ponytails and the dashing boy with orange-haired hair finally meet again at this moment.

It was in that very instant.

Sita's body began to fade, as if it were about to become "quantum" and "nothingness," merging into the body of the concept of Rama.

"Everyone, get ready."

Fujimaru Ritsuka glanced behind her.

Noknare nodded, her face devoid of the arrogance of a queen: "Don't worry about the site being destroyed. I will deploy the Fairy Domain to protect everything here."

As expected of the Queen of Edinburgh, she's always reliable in times like these.

"Everyone, get ready..."

After Fujimaru Ritsuka gave that reminder, instantly...

A flash of black fire passed through his eyes.

She had tried to practice this strange ability.

It seems to possess the power to accelerate people. As the flames burn, the resentment and hatred in one's heart also amplify. At the same time, one's spirit and strength will accelerate to a realm beyond time and space.

However, one must be careful, as if too much force is used, the flames could even engulf oneself.

However, Fujimaru Ritsuka tried to understand and use it as something similar to the Speed ​​Force in DC Comics, although she herself probably couldn't handle this power that led her to hell.

However, now, seize that fleeting opportunity...

Fujimaru Ritsuka's pupils changed, even becoming somewhat hollow.

This is not a silent stillness, but a stagnation where even the wind forgets to flow.

In that instant between Rama and Sita, the invisible wall began to tremble, much like the concept of collapse in quantum mechanics.

In a very short moment.

"call..."

As if frozen in time, Fujimaru Ritsuka's breathing became heavy.

The illusory Q*UN sphere dagger in his hand began to glow faintly.

The radiance seemed to flow from the void... It was impossible to know what it had gone through, or what it could do; everything was incomprehensible.

This is probably what they call [ ].

Let's get started...

A gentle, dreamlike voice seemed to reach my ears.

Her voice was soft and flat, as if some phantom was slowly emerging behind Fujimaru Ritsuka, and in an instant...

That sharp blade, seemingly capable of cleaving through chaos, was raised by Fujimaru Ritsuka...
