Anime Crossover: Master is Not Here Today

At this moment, the only thing they can do is head to the North Wall, for the people of Uruk, and for them, to win this decisive battle!

"correct,"

Fujimaru Ritsuka stayed behind and did not leave with Gudao and the others. Then, under Siduri's somewhat puzzled gaze, she approached her and handed her something.

She looked at Siduri and smiled:

"Thank you for taking care of me during this time. This is just a small token of my appreciation."

"This is……?"

Looking at the small cloth bag with its exquisite patterns, Siduri looked puzzled. Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and explained:

"It's called amulet, a talisman from my hometown. It has the meaning of blessing and warding off bad luck. I hope you can accept it."

"That's it."

Siduri understood immediately upon hearing this, and then accepted it with a smile.

"Then I will accept it with gratitude. Thank you, Gudako-sama."

"It's ok."

Seeing that Siduri accepted the amulet she had prepared, Fujimaru Ritsuka also showed a relieved smile.

In reality, the amulet itself is not important; what is important is the strand of hair imbued with Tiamat's magic that she placed inside the amulet's inner pouch.

Its presence should be enough to ensure Siduri's safety.

After doing all this, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Gilgamesh, who nodded slightly in gratitude.

Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled back, then turned and left as well.

"Sector B17 needs help, go to Team One...!"

"Check the quantity of supplies one last time to ensure everything is in order!"

"The placement of ammunition in each area...!"

……

The already bustling North Wall was now even more crowded, surpassing even Uruk in its liveliness. The sounds of busy activity rose and fell as everyone busied themselves with their work.

With the final battle tomorrow, all of Uruk's soldiers, weapons, and supplies have been gathered here, but they are still operating smoothly under Leonidas I's command.

"Fujimaru-dono!"

Upon seeing them, Ushiwakamaru, as always, enthusiastically jogged over, beaming with joy:

"Tomorrow is the final battle, it's so exciting!"

"Rest assured, this time we will definitely carry out a feint attack to ensure your smooth operation!"

Gudao nodded seriously and said:

"I'm counting on you!"

According to the task assignments, Ushiwakamaru, Musashibo Benkei, and Leonidas I will remain at the North Wall to fight against the monster army and be responsible for feint attacks.

In addition to the three mentioned above, Quetzalcoatl was also responsible for the feint attack. Her main task was to hold off Kingu and take the opportunity to throw Marduk's Hand Axe to destroy the Blood Temple and reduce the divinity of the Beast Goddess.

A gigantic axe forty meters long and weighing as much as the entire city of Eri, located about thirty kilometers from the north wall of the Blood Temple, could only be accomplished by Quetzalcoatl.

The remaining Chaldea group went straight to the heart of the enemy, penetrating deep into the temple where the Beast Goddess resided, and utterly defeated her.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Ushiwakamaru led them to the campsite where they would be staying that night, and then hurriedly said goodbye.

Soon, it was night.

"Miss Gudako."

Gudao arrived at Fujimaru Ritsuka's camp and said to her:

"I'd like to talk to you, is that alright?"

"of course."

Although she didn't understand what the other person wanted to do, Fujimaru Ritsuka readily agreed and followed them to a relatively quiet corner.

Gudao came this time to show Fujimaru Ritsuka his achievements.

"I'm sorry, this is all I can do right now..."

Seeing Mash's summoned spirit form collapse after only a few seconds, Gudao looked somewhat ashamed.

At this level, it's difficult to even perform a normal battle, let alone unleash a Noble Phantasm; it can only be used as an emergency measure at most.

"Even so, I still hope that you, Miss Gudako, can see that this is the result of my efforts so far."

Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled with delight:

"Isn't this great!"

This is not encouragement, but a genuine compliment.

She understood the other person's magical talent as well as she understood herself.

The fact that the opponent was able to master the use of the Spirit Origin Shadow Summoning Technique before the final battle shows that they have indeed worked very hard during this period. Asking for more would be unrealistic.

"Not bad."

Fujimaru Ritsuka patted him on the shoulder and smiled:

"If we keep going like this, who knows, one day we might be able to easily take on Jin Gu one-on-one!"

Gudao's face immediately fell, and he scratched his head, saying:

"This is probably a bit..."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 473 Night Talk, The Decisive Battle Begins

Seeing that Gudao didn't seem very confident, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled without saying anything, only saying that the other party had only grasped the basics and hadn't yet realized the true potential of the Spirit Origin Shadow Summoning Technique.

But it's okay, she should have a chance to show him next.

After reporting his learning progress to her, Gudao left and went to another place.

The decisive battle is tomorrow morning, and before resting tonight, he wants to talk to the others.

Although I don't want to say anything discouraging, the truth is that if we don't say certain things now, no one can guarantee that we'll have another chance to explain them to the other side after this battle.

On the other side, Fujimaru Ritsuka watched Gudao's departing figure and suddenly felt like she was rushing around for Valentine's Day.

"correct,"

Just then, she called out to him, and seeing Gudao turn around with a somewhat confused look, she smiled and said:

"To Come!"

Gudao paused for a moment, then nodded vigorously and said:

"...Yes, I'll do my best!"

This time, Gudao turned and left completely. Just then, Kingu's figure suddenly appeared behind Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"--I do not understand."

He also looked at Gudao's retreating figure and said:

"If you really want to help them, with your current abilities, why bother with such roundabout methods?"

"Isn't this good?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said:

"This is, after all, their journey. If we interfere too much, it would be like pulling up seedlings to help them grow."

However, upon hearing her say this, Jin Gu glanced at her slightly, somewhat puzzled, and asked:

"Aren't you getting involved enough these days?"

The soldiers' firearms, the still-alive Ushiwakamaru and others, Quetzal Koyatl who had completely broken away from the alliance contract... these observations alone were vastly different from his memories.

Upon hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched her head and chuckled awkwardly:

"Well... please don't worry about these little things."

"What I'm trying to say is that no matter what kind of help we provide, they still have to overcome the difficulties and obstacles along the way themselves."

"..."

Jin Gu neither confirmed nor denied this.

He raised his head and looked at the city wall in front of him, his gaze seemingly crossing the battle lines of the monsters and pointing directly at the Blood Temple located in the northern jungle area, his eyes flickering slightly.

Now, being there in person, he felt as if he had returned to that battle once again.

Looking back now, it's clear that he was destined to fail from the very beginning.

The so-called new humans were nothing but a deception by Goetia from beginning to end. Mother was completely unaware of this, and his ideals were nothing but unrealistic wishful thinking.

Lahm...

A flicker of disgust flashed in Jingu's eyes as he thought of those ugly and bizarre beings.

-

"--Time is up."

Merlin glanced at the horde of monsters gradually gathering at the edge of the wasteland, then looked at the crowd.

At the same time, Gudao was also observing the crowd around him, glancing into the distance from time to time, as if anticipating something.

Fujimaru Ritsuka and her follower disappeared again.

Gudao didn't know when or why they left, but after discovering this, everyone tacitly kept quiet about it, seemingly unconcerned.

Merlin and Quetzalcoatl both knew Gudako better than he did, and seeing that neither of them said anything, he could only keep his questions to himself.

Moreover, now is not the time to concern ourselves with this matter.

On the other side, Merlin laughed:

"The troops inside the north wall have been reorganized, and the monster hordes are beginning to gather. An hour after we leave, the monster front will deploy its troops for the final battle, drawing our attention away from us."
