I'm in a mess, starting with a meteor shower!

"The game is over!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka wasn't the only one to give an evaluation; Freya from Gorilla Castle also reached the same conclusion.

Loki, standing beside her, started shouting and yelling.

"Five days? This is less than five minutes into the game, and the ending is already out."

"He actually had such an incredible skill hidden away!"

"Why hasn't he shown this before?"

Freya then answered Loki's question.

"Because this skill is a rain of arrows falling from the sky, judging from the skill's mechanism, it requires a very high altitude and cannot be used in dungeons."

"Secondly, the purpose of this rain of arrows is mainly to weaken a large number of enemies, rendering them unable to fight. This is not suitable for dealing with individually strong enemies, so he did not use it in the Holy Grail War."

"And now, the number of enemies he faces has decreased, and it is an open area outside the dungeon, which is exactly what requires him not to launch a fatal attack. The battlefield is the perfect place to use this skill."

Now that you put it that way, I understand.

Loki nodded in realization, then smiled and looked at Apollo across from him.

"Apollo is really in a bad situation. He was so confident that he had completely mastered Ritsuka's abilities and even put restrictions on him, but he didn't expect that Ritsuka always had some useless skills."

"Moreover, judging from the incantation when this skill is activated, it was obtained from Apollo."

Even Freya was a little flustered when this was mentioned.

She could guess that the Apollo that Fujimaru Ritsuka prayed for was not the Apollo of this world, but the Apollo of the Type-Moon universe. But the Apollo of another world is still Apollo. Using Apollo to defeat Apollo is really interesting.

Freya wasn't the only one who guessed this; everyone had watched the Holy Grail War, so they could all guess it.

Immediately, someone jumped out and started teasing.

"Hey! Apollo, the 'Savior' had the Apollo from another world wipe out your entire retinue. As Apollo, do you have anything to say?"

Apollo, trembling as he was questioned, pointed at Fujimaru Ritsuka in the mirror and loudly defended himself.

"This is cheating! This is supposed to be a game between adventurers, how can they let a god appear! This is cheating!"

"Apollo, what are you pretending to be stupid for? Can't you see that there's no divine power in that rain of arrows? It's just a magic spell. You're using that as an excuse? Are you a sore loser?"

Apollo, his face flushed red from the rebuttal, struggled for a long time before finally managing to utter a single sentence.

"It's not over yet! My clan still has members left, so he's not guaranteed a win."

Do you want to listen to what you're saying? You still want to fight back in this situation? Relying on your few remaining female companions? Are they LV5 or LV6?

The gods on the other side were too lazy to answer Apollo, and simply focused their gaze on the mirror.

The other gods did the same, ignoring Apollo and all looking into the mirror, wanting to see how Fujimaru Ritsuka would end the battle.

At the game site, Fujimaru Ritsuka, who witnessed the rain of arrows stop, put away her Sky Bow, then broke off a branch from a nearby tree, stripped it of all its leaves, and revealed the smooth, straight wooden shaft.

With a casual wave of her hand, Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded in satisfaction.

Excellent, no wonder it's the holy sword I found on the roadside!

If there were a field of wild rapeseed flowers here, Fujimaru Ritsuka would demonstrate what ultimate swordsmanship looks like.

Unfortunately, no, and this [Holy Sword] isn't for beating grass, it's for beating people.

Fujimaru Ritsuka clenched her right hand, and magical energy clung to the Holy Sword, turning it black with some red lines on the surface.

A knight never dies unarmed.

Lancelot's Noble Phantasm was activated, and at this moment, the Holy Sword had transformed from an ordinary tree branch into a D-rank Noble Phantasm!

In this war game, Fujimaru Ritsuka equipped two cards: [Berserker Lancelot] and [Archer Atalanta]. He didn't equip any other cards because he didn't need them at all!

Wielding the Holy Sword, Fujimaru Ritsuka began her charge towards the fortress walls.

On the city wall, the Apollo Familia members who were originally defending the city wall were now all lying on the ground with many holes in their bodies. Although they were not fatal, they were all wounds that rendered them basically unable to resist.

When Fujimaru Ritsuka rushed into the fortress, they all just watched; they had no ability to rush up and stop her.

Thus, Fujimaru Ritsuka arrived at the castle in the center of the fortress without any hindrance.

At the entrance to the castle, Fujimaru Ritsuka finally saw the person blocking her way.

"Are you trying to stop me?"

"No, we didn't mean to stop you."

The person who answered was Daphne Lalos, a member of the Apollo Familia who usually commands operations. She is a Level 2 adventurer and one of the few female members in the Apollo Familia.

Because Fujimaru Ritsuka summoned Apollo's arrows, she was not attacked.

"I just want to witness the final moments with you."

Although she was the commander of the Apollo Familia and held a relatively high position, she did not like the Apollo Familia. She was semi-forced into joining the Apollo Familia, so she never tried to stop them. She was overjoyed when the Apollo Familia was destroyed.

The same was true of another female adventurer standing beside her.

Cassandra Illion, a Level 2 nursemaid, known as "The Pessimist," possesses the special ability to foresee the future through her dreams.

However, this skill is very abstract, and the future she foresees is also very abstract and cannot be easily described in words. This leads to others thinking that she is playing with abstract concepts when she talks about her precognitive dreams, so it is basically useless in daily life.

She also had no place in Apollo's family, so she did not hesitate at all to leave Apollo's family.

"In that case, you may all come along."

Fujimaru Ritsuka glanced at them, then went into the fort first.

Inside the fortress's central command center, the commander-in-chief, Yacintos, who was in charge of guarding the area, also had three wounds.

As a Level 3 adventurer, he is a veteran adventurer with a wealth of combat experience.

When the arrows first pierced the roof and fell into the command room, he was hit by a few arrows in time, but afterwards he dodged and used his weapon to block the arrows.

Among the entire Apollo Familia, aside from the female members who were not hit by the arrow rain, he was the least injured.

Now, seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka arrive, his face was filled with rage.

"Fujimaru Ritsuka!"

"Don't think you can win just like that. If you want to win, you'll have to get over me first!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka raised her right hand toward Yacintos, and the black and red Holy Sword in her hand emitted a dim light.

"Don't worry, it won't take up much of your time."

Time-based abilities activated once more!

Volume 1: Chapter 88. The War Game is Over

Hyacinthus, the only Level 3 in the Apollo Familia, is also the strongest fighter in the entire Familia and the most handsome man in the Apollo Familia. As the leader of the Apollo Familia, he is known as the "Pampered Emperor of the Sun".

He even possessed a custom-made weapon, the Sunblade, personally crafted for him by Apollo.

As Apollo's most beloved man, he was not handsome as a child. In fact, he was extremely ugly because of a strange disease. Everyone around him looked down on him and ostracized him, which made him very lonely and even depressed.

Until one day he met Apollo, who not only did not think he was ugly, but even praised him for being handsome. Facing the first Apollo who praised him, his heart fluttered for the first time, and he became Apollo's first servant. After becoming Apollo's servant, Apollo personally treated him and cured his strange illness.

After recovering his health, he transformed from an ugly monster into an incomparably handsome young man. Thus, his initial excitement, combined with gratitude, led him to fall completely in love with Apollo, developing a morbid love for him.

In his eyes, there was only Apollo, and he only cared about Apollo's love for him.

Anything Apollo wanted, he was willing to snatch; anyone Apollo wanted, he was willing to abduct.

This time, Apollo wants to get Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Then, he will use all his strength to defeat Fujimaru Ritsuka and recruit him into the Apollo Familia!

Because this is what his beloved Apollo wants, he must do it!

With unwavering conviction, Yacintos charged toward Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Then he collapsed.

Even though Fujimaru Ritsuka only used a tree branch, with his boundless martial arts training and the knight's invincibility against unarmed combat, the already injured Yacintos had no ability to resist and was knocked to the ground by Fujimaru Ritsuka with just a few blows.

To prevent Hyacinthus from using magic, Fujimaru Ritsuka struck Hyacinthus's leg with her first blow, rendering him immobile, and then aimed her second blow directly at his mouth.

In the world of the Mirage, magic is easily awakened when adventurers level up. Each person awakens a different magic, and the power varies greatly. However, 99.99% of magic requires incantation to activate.

As a veteran adventurer at level 3, Yacintos naturally possesses his own magic, but it requires chanting.

So as long as you shut him up, his magical ability is basically useless.

As for the remaining 0.01% of magic that can be activated without chanting, that's hard to guess.

Already injured, and then having his magic destroyed by Fujimaru Ritsuka, leaving only his physical fighting ability, Yacintos was no match for the endless martial arts prowess and was quickly defeated by Fujimaru Ritsuka.

The entire process was exactly the same as when Fujimaru Ritsuka enforced the law in Orario, making the members of the military police in Orario nod in approval.

Yes, yes, that's how our consultants usually enforce the law!

After Hyacinthus fell, Fujimaru Ritsuka almost instinctively squatted down and used his knee to press against the other's vest, but fortunately he remembered in time that he was playing a war game, so he stepped over Hyacinthus as Hyacinthus had asked him to.

There's no way around it; Yacintos is just too weak in his current form. The way he plays feels exactly the same as when he was enforcing the law in Orario.

The flag depicting the golden bow and the sun, the symbols of Apollo's family, was planted not far away. Because of the previous rain of arrows, the flag had also suffered damage. Although the flagpole was not directly broken, several holes had been shot through the flag.

He casually pulled the flag from the ground and then threw it directly on the ground.

"I am Ganesha!"

The sound of Ganesha could be heard in the sky above the game venue.

"I hereby declare that the war game between the Apollo Familia and the Asteria Familia has come to an end!"

The entire war game took less than 15 minutes from start to finish, making it the fastest war game ever. Fujimaru Ritsuka's action time totaled less than 1 minute, while the other 14 minutes were spent with Fujimaru Ritsuka traveling.

The whole process was incredibly fast.

"Alright, the war game is over."

Upon hearing Ganesha's announcement that the matter was over, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Daphne and Cassandra beside her.

"According to the previous agreement, all the property of the Apollo family will be disposed of by us, including yours."

"Huh? We're in too?"

Daphne was a little confused. Before the war game, as a veteran adventurer, she knew that the stakes for the Apollo Familia in this war game should be very high, but she didn't expect that even they would be involved.

"So what do you plan to do with us?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Daphne and Cassandra in front of her, recalling their information.

One has precognitive dreams and can foresee crises almost 100% accurately, while the other has management skills and is willing to let Apollo serve as commander even when Apollo forces her to join the Familia. Both of them are talented individuals.

“I can see that you are different from the others in the Apollo Familia; you possess your own sense of justice.”

"Then, what is your justice?"

"what?"

The sudden question left the two of them completely stunned.

"Our justice?"

"That's right."

Since they are talented individuals, there is no need to let them go. In the original work, these two talents went to the Mih Familia, and the process of going to the Mih Familia was also abstract.

They originally planned to join the Hestia Familia, but on the day they were about to join, they discovered that Hestia was carrying a debt of 2 million. Following a god who was carrying a debt of 2 million would mean an extremely difficult life, so they quickly ran away and joined the Mih Familia instead.

However, more abstractly, the Mih family was also heavily indebted.

Rather than letting the two of them languish in their impoverished clan, they should join the Astrea Familia and help him make it great again.

Faced with Fujimaru Ritsuka's question, Daphne lowered her head and thought for a moment before giving her answer.

"My words should be considered clear-headed justice."

Although Daphne is a member of the Apollo Familia, she is not a bad person. As a commander, she never acts impulsively. She is a typical rationalist. She does not intentionally do evil, nor is she willing to sacrifice herself for empty glory. She has an extremely clear understanding of herself.

"And what about you?"

Cassandra looked miserable.

"Perhaps... it's a tragic justice."

She has almost 100% accurate precognitive dreams, but no one is willing to believe her. Even her best friend Daphne doesn't believe her. Including this war game, she actually foresaw the Apollo Familia's defeat, but no one believed her.
