However, the opponent also possesses another, even more terrifying means of attack, namely the third Noble Phantasm, "The time of birth has come, with this I will correct all things."

At first glance, it looks like a halo surrounding the Earth, but it is actually a collection of hundreds of millions of rays of light. Each ray possesses immense destructive power comparable to the A-rank Noble Phantasm Excalibur.

If Goetia wanted, it could even traverse the Earth.

And it's not just about output; the enormous light band brings energy far exceeding that of the Holy Grail, giving it more diverse options and ways to deal with situations in battle, such as the opponent's already demonstrated high-speed recovery ability.

In addition, the opponent possesses a number of troublesome abilities such as [Immortality], [Clairvoyance: EX], the Reality Marble [Grand Temple of Time], [High-Speed ​​Chanting: A], [Single Manifestation: A], magic, and so on.

However, for Fujimaru Ritsuka, the most troublesome ability the other party possessed was indeed the beast power of [anti-summoning].

As we all know, her main method is to summon Spirit Origin Shadows and Servants to fight, and Goetia's ability is equivalent to sealing most of her offensive capabilities.

The current stalemate is precisely because they lack the means to truly inflict fatal damage on Getia.

From this perspective, Goetia was indeed too restrained towards her.

On the other side, Goetia seemed to have noticed this as well. His previously agitated emotions quickly calmed down. He looked at the two of them and let out another faint, mocking laugh:

"I can play with you guys like this forever, but how long can you keep it up?"

"persist in?"

Faced with Goetia's mockery, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly laughed.

"...Okay, I give up."

I originally intended to interact with you all as an ordinary Master, but all I got in return was your estrangement. I guess I'll have to resort to some unconventional methods after all.

Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, she raised her right hand, which was marked with the Command Seals, once again and called out loudly:

“In the name of the Command Seal—”

"Come to me, Tiamat!"

Chapter 500 Beast Master, Tiamat vs. Goetia

"What……?"

Upon hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka call out her name, everyone present except Mash froze in place, momentarily wondering if there was something wrong with their ears.

The name they just called out was... Tiamat?

Is it the Tiamat they know?

No, wait a minute...!

However, before everyone's rapidly working brains could react, accompanied by the flash of red light emanating from the familiar Command Seals, and as another Command Seal disappeared, a petite girl's figure suddenly appeared in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"Don't be afraid, children, Mommy's here!"

"Ti Ma!"

Upon seeing Tiamat appear, Fujimaru Ritsuka happily hugged her.

"!"

Tiamat's body stiffened slightly at the sudden display of affection, but then her lips curled into a smile and her eyes narrowed into crescents as she became uncontrollably excited.

Then, she turned around and hugged Fujimaru Ritsuka tightly in return, saying gently:

"It's Mommy~. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."

However, on the other hand, the Chaldea group was completely unable to empathize with this heartwarming scene of a mother and daughter embracing.

Gudao stared in shock at the summoned Tiamat, muttering in disbelief:

"That's... Tiamat...?"

They had never seen Tiamat in her girl form before, but her facial features, hairstyle, huge horns on her head, and peculiar star-shaped eyes were exactly the same as the human form of Tiamat in their memories.

but--

Looking at the girl gently comforting Fujimaru Ritsuka, radiating maternal love, it was hard to imagine that she was the Second Beast who had made them fight so hard to win in the Seventh Singularity.

...Could it be someone else with the same name?

Although it seemed somewhat far-fetched, they were more willing to believe this explanation.

But soon, Dr. Roman behind them shattered their illusions, muttering in shock:

"The opponent's spirit origin is indeed Tiamat, and the class is an extra class that does not belong to the seven main classes. It is an Alterego..."

"But how could Tiamat possibly become a Servant and even form a contract with her Master?!"

"That's..."

Human beings are wicked...!

Although he wanted to say that, seeing Tiamat lovingly embracing Fujimaru Ritsuka, seemingly completely oblivious to the evil she was experiencing as a human, Roman could only swallow the rest of his words and question his own existence.

The bizarre and terrifying scene before him shattered the worldview he had built up over the years.

Meanwhile, after the hug, Fujimaru Ritsuka pointed at Goetia and complained to Tiamat:

"Mom, he's bullying me!"

"!!!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka's word "Mom" instantly evaporated Tiamat's rationality. Although she understood the current situation, she still nodded without hesitation:

"It's the bad monster doing bad things, right? Don't worry, leave it to Mom!"

"Mom will definitely give him a good scolding!"

"..."

Meanwhile, upon seeing Tiamat's figure appear, Goetia was momentarily thrown into confusion and bewilderment.

Finally, after confirming that the other party was indeed the second beast from his memories, he immediately questioned in a deep voice:

"Beast II, the creator goddess abandoned by human reason, who holds the principle of [Return], why did you betray your own existence? Why did you choose to help humanity?"

The other person's words hit her sore spot right away, and Tiamat puffed out her cheeks, somewhat displeased, and retorted angrily:

"So what? As a mother, protecting my children is in my nature. Even if I am abandoned again one day, I will choose to walk with my children!"

"Besides, I don't want you, you wicked beast who bullied my child, to teach me how to do things!"

"Tiamat..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka was somewhat moved.

Upon hearing her call, Tiamat turned around, her anger instantly vanishing, replaced by a gentle smile.

"..."

Faced with Tiamat's firm answer, Geitia fell silent once again.

The fact that a force of evil, threatening and destroying human history, would resolutely choose to stand on the side of humanity was once again beyond his expectations.

After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke, making his judgment on Tiamat's choice.

“…Ignorance.”

"In that case, you shall meet destruction with them."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and clenched his fist again, activating his power—

[Anti-Summoning]!

Although Tiamat is the second Beast of the same perfect level as him, he can also sense that she did not descend in the form of a true Beast, but rather descended to the Alterego class Servant manifestation.

Since he is a follower, he cannot disobey his authority!

Under his power, Tiamat's body suddenly began to emit white light, just like the Servants who had been repatriated before.

Seeing this, Getia slightly curled the corners of his mouth, but the smile quickly disappeared, because he suddenly realized that something seemed wrong.

Although her body emitted a white light, Tiamat's figure did not disappear. Instead, she began to grow gradually, transforming from her initial girlish form into a more mature one.

Behind it, a pair of enormous horns gradually grew.

When the light faded, Tiamat's figure reappeared before everyone. Unlike her initial appearance as a young girl, Tiamat now resembled the human form that Gudao and the others remembered.

"I see……"

Seeing the other party's appearance, Goetia quickly realized why his powers had not worked.

Tiamat's class and Servant status remained unchanged, but he could clearly sense that her form was now very close to that of a beast. Her Servant status had become like an outer garment worn by a person, serving only as a cover.

Furthermore, by virtue of the beast's power of "sole manifestation," the opponent completely ignored his counter-summoning.

"Are they really willing to go to this lengths for humanity?"

Goetia stared coldly at Tiamat, feeling a surge of anger rising within her.

Tiamat looked up at him, then slightly opened her mouth—

“Aaaaaaa—aaaaaaaa—!”

A surge of powerful magic erupted from Tiamat's eyes, transforming into a purplish-black beam of magical energy that ripped through the ground from below, attacking Goetia!

Not to be outdone, Goetia gathered a surge of magical power in her hands and released it, colliding with Tiamat's attack. The surging magical aftershocks whipped up a gale, making everyone's clothes flutter.

This guy actually has a weakness to beasts...!?

At the moment of the attack, Getia was suddenly shocked to realize that the other party seemed to have an affinity for attacking beasts, which seemed absurd to her.

It's absurd that a beast can have a special attack on other beasts...!

The attacks from both sides quickly subsided, and the initial clash did not produce a significant victory or defeat. Just as Goetia was about to say something, she noticed that on the other side, Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others had already left the ground and were floating in the air.

Because the next moment——

“Aaaaaaa—AAAAaaaaa—!”

Amidst the angry chants, endless black mud suddenly surged forth from beneath Tiamat's feet, instantly engulfing the ground of the Grand Temple of Time!
