I, Fujimaru Ritsuka, am back with a max-level character!

"Uncle...Sir"

You are someone capable of transcending the future; this passion is something I cannot possess.

"The last... emperor."

The emperor's power and unwavering conviction erupted within Nero.

However, that's not all; Nero absorbed more than one type of imperial power.

She devoured everything, and filled with greed, and the last imperial power she absorbed was the papacy.

This is not merely ordinary papal power, but a privilege to judge the world in accordance with the savior [the Son of God].

This power was only able to be exercised by Simon Peter after his death [because Simon was not made pope until long after his death].

There is no doubt that this power belongs to the Antichrist.

It is poison.

Zzzzz!

The divine sword flashed, and the girl's figure moved even faster than the lightning-fast Cavenan, unleashing a special attack enhanced with the threat of humanity, and slashed down with her sword.

boom--!

A horizontal slash, like a phantom.

The golden sword is magnificent, its light flowing gracefully.

Pupils constricted, and the enormous black wings were instantly torn open.

The brilliance of stars explodes and bursts forth before our eyes.

Chapter Forty-Eight: Abandoning the Crown, Severing Calamity, Unleashing the Flowing Aurora

The emperor held absolute privileges over land.

The Pope provides a powerful boost to faith.

However, this reinforcement is undoubtedly a poison-like, super-weakening effect on the Hell Dragon.

It was a world like flowers.

"O beast of lust, fallen Sodom."

The blonde garden girl said, scattering flower petals.

"Your love is unfathomable, your desires are like a raging flood. But that doesn't mean your depravity is such a filthy thing. Humans love because of desire, and suppress desire because of love... This is the two sides of Nero, the human being, and Rome. Your love for Rome... and for your Master, that is your weakness."

...

"Damn it... Simon, even at the very end, he still left this trap? The brilliance of this divine sword... Hmm, the girl who was once a fairy... A girl who stepped from darkness into brilliance, like a snow lotus, she is truly flawless."

The beast grinned and asked, "Even if you were in hell, could you remain indifferent?"

"In fact, I'm terrified, and I always have thoughts like, 'Why does it have to be me doing this? Wouldn't someone else have done it better?'... That's not very befitting of a king, is it?"

The fairy of the holy sword replied, "But, as expected, we can't stop here. We must run towards the stars...run, run."

The beast understood. "You really are like a child. But even an ideal king has emotions in his heart. Your shining radiance... is truly beautiful."

"My emotions are actually very simple. Although I am here now as a Grand Saber, responding to the summons... I am here entirely for personal reasons, in accordance with a certain contract."

Golden magic flowed, shining in the radiance of the apocalypse.

It is definitely the most heartwarming force.

"..."

A look of doubt crossed his red eyes: "You must have another mission, right? Is this really the right thing to do...? The final calamity needs your power..."

"It's nothing. Actually, I think you're incredibly amazing. Even after falling into beast form, you haven't completely lost your mind. You're as beautiful as a rose. Humans... are truly incredible beings."

C smiled gently, a fairy born in paradise, a flower of hope.

It unfolds quietly.

"The first flower, embracing the hopeful star of someone important."

A golden, shimmering holy sword materialized in the girl's hand.

The glory that has fallen is revealed here.

The power of the Grand Order is unleashed here.

I saw someone who was completely different from me [Casta], but equally troubled.

The emperor, of noble status, is at the center of power struggles.

Undeterred and filled with burning passion.

I saw it, I saw Rome, I saw humanity.

And once again, I saw that the one wielding the holy sword was not you, my friend.

We also saw Fujimaru Ritsuka, who always got back up no matter how many times she fell.

From this, I saw

The pulse of life.

So, the girl made a decision.

"In the name of love."

Have you ever seen the brilliance of the Holy Sword? Have you ever seen this blue light that emanates from the heart?

"I"

"Returning the Crown to its rightful place."

"The power of the Polar Star has been bestowed upon this sword."

"Guiding the lost calamities back to the brilliance of the stars, this is a blessing offered to you, to the Empress!"

The starlight shone brightly with the girl's gentle singing.

Break free from the shackles of sorrow!

Destroy, you path of depravity!

What should endure today is the pure and beautiful love of the stars!

The curtain of glory is thus drawn, entwined with the light that sings praises to life!

Love that is carefully nurtured will eventually bloom into a sacred white rose!

"Ughhhhhh...! I can't resist this power! I can't resist it?!" Nero's bloodshot eyes were filled with astonishment. "Impossible! My power has actually been defeated by a mere Grand Servant?!"

“Of course you cannot resist, Miss Nero. This is not my power, but your prayer [heart]. As long as the stars do not disappear, no matter what form they take... your inner self will not change.”

My stars.

At this time, my stars.

My Master was someone I swore to advance alongside.

......

I remember now.

Previously, when fighting against the combined forces of the Roman Empire.

In response to the meteor shower in the polar sky in opposition to Goetia.

We spent a pleasant time together during the Nero Festival.

When he performed a song with Elizabeth.

When Ishtar and the cold-faced woman were racing together.

......

Holy light descended from the sky.

The holy sword fell from the sky.

The light of hope that extends from beyond the stars possesses the power to build the future, and even change it.

I acted on my own initiative and made a mistake.

Whether it's human history or singularities, in the end, I still made a mistake.

But I am the emperor, and the emperor will not admit his mistake.

The floodwaters of the Kuroshio Current transformed into a tornado.

It transformed into a long spear.

The ever-swirling white wave, with its incredible speed and sharp spearhead, burst through the air, instantly creating a terrifying blue light burst.

That was the light emitted by the electrons in the water, stimulated by the corrupted magic, accelerating their movement and even exceeding the speed of light in the water.

That was a crimson hell, radiating a ghostly light.

He leaped up, meeting the light of the golden laurel wreath that had relinquished its crown.

Communication with Chaldea was intermittent, and Olga Marie and Dr. Roman could not be heard at all.

Faced with the terrifying attack of Artoria [Avalon] and Nero [Sodom]'s expanding magical power, the fluctuations and radiation emanating from their surroundings completely obscured the faint Chaldea signal.

"The Holy Sword of Stars, abandoning its crown status, unleashing its full power." Black Saber looked at the light that instantly enveloped everything with a complicated expression. Once upon a time, before she became a tyrant, she too was someone who wielded starlight.

Everyone, under this light, seemed to have transformed into simple lines.

Dazzling, radiant.

“This is what a true hero is.” Elizabeth thought that by possessing a miracle, she had already become a legend, but the light before her eyes was undoubtedly a star legend.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying roar came from my ears.
