Thanks for the invitation. I'm in Type-Moon, inheriting the legacy of Zi-O.

That huge white sphere of light in the sky is probably a manifestation of one of the possibilities: the culprit behind the Tunguska event.

Tesla at full power is indeed worthy of Nian Zhuo's all-out effort.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Marie of Chaldea was practically frantic. Looking at the bright red magic power on the screen that was almost off the charts, she was practically screaming at Mash and the others.

"Mash! Nencho! And Ritsuka, you all need to come back right now! We're here to prepare for the spirit transfer!" The white orb on the screen deeply stung her eyes.

"That's not something you can handle right now, at least not something you can withstand in your current state!" Mary's fingers tapped rapidly, tears welling in her eyes. "Damn it... damn it...! Safety isn't an option now! I'll get you back first! We'll deal with the rest later!"

"This... what kind of power is this...?" Mordred stared at the sun-like orb of light in the sky, her hand gripping the sword becoming weak. "My Noble Phantasm... can it withstand it...?"

She simply couldn't imagine the scene of her crimson-black light shattering the sun.

"No, no! The most important thing now is to ensure Ritsuka and the others survive!" Gripping the sword with both hands, Mordred squeezed out every last bit of magic power from her body, and black light began to appear on the bright silver blade. "At least, I need to buy some time!"

"Mr. Nianzhuo!" Mashu, seeing Nianzhuo standing motionless, staring at the white orb of light, assumed he was too frightened to move. "I'll go right now—"

Suddenly, a hand stopped her.

On the other side, Mordred's hands, which were gathering magic, were also pressed down by another hand and gently lowered.

"Sen...?" It was Ritsuka, who smiled and shook her head at Mash and Mordred.

"Why...?" Mordred had a thousand words to say but couldn't utter them, and could only ask dryly in the end.

“For no reason,” Ritsuka replied with a smile, looking at Nencho who stood there. “Because he will win.”

"...Mary, have you given up hope now?" Suddenly, Nianzhuo asked Mary, the bright red flames on his body gradually dying down.

"—Huh?" Mary, who was praying with her hands clasped together, suddenly looked up and stared at Nian Zhuo on the screen.

“It’s not time to despair yet, Mary!” he shouted, watching the descending white orb of light.

“Yes, it’s not time to despair yet—” Ritsuka said with a smile, watching Nencho’s figure.

“Mr. Nianzhuo, don’t let his usual carefree demeanor fool you. He’s actually more sensitive than anyone else.” Ritsuka brushed aside a strand of orange hair from her cheek and looked at Nianzhuo with trust. “Whether it’s the enemy or us, he only gets serious when he’s sure of success.”

“He will definitely win, and as his friend and companion, all we have to do is believe in him.” Ritsuka turned her head and looked at Mash and Mordred, who were staring blankly at her, and playfully closed one eye.

"Isn't that right~?"

Meanwhile, Nianzhuo did not hear Ritsuka's words and closed his eyes again.

—I want to be their hope.

It wasn't a burning crimson, nor was it anything as chaotic as other colors.

—It is pure white.

"Ha, that's such a naive fantasy." Suddenly, a strange voice came from within my consciousness.

"I've said it before, you can't be their guardian angel. It's better to throw away this childish fantasy as soon as possible!"

But I just want to become that [hope]—more beautiful and more radiant than any other light.

"Really? Even if it costs me my life?" It was me again, countless versions of myself surrounding me, close to my ear, questioning, inquiring, and doubting.

Yes—she nodded slowly but firmly.

Because—the conscious self opens its eyes.

"Because—" The real self opened her eyes.

"This is my hope!!!"

"Then we will all become your strength!" The surrounding figures transformed into various colored lights and surged into Nian Zhuo's body.

— Gently exhaling stale air, multicolored light began to shine in Nian Zhuo's hands.

"Well, is everyone ready to witness this?" Suddenly, Ritsuka looked at Nencho expectantly, her gaze remaining unchanged even as Nencho's armor gradually disappeared.

"This world-destroying thunder will eventually be shattered by the light of hope."

Wizard - Infinite Form

What color is hope?

Some might say it's red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and violet—colors like a rainbow.

The guy who said that flew into space.

Various colors, various hopes.

But the only constant is that the hope must be a positive and beautiful color.

Now, facing an attack that could almost raze London to the ground, Nianzhuo cries out for hope.

Then, hope arrived.

In the palm of his hand, countless pure white rays of light began to converge.

In the end, it was made into a ring.

“So, hope is neither gold nor white…” Nian Zhuo stared at the ring lying in his palm, his eyes flickering.

"Instead, it is the colorless that can contain everything."

Faced with the giant ball of electricity falling from above, Nian Zhuo put the ring on his finger.

“Now, I will sow the seeds of hope called ‘Infinity’.” A hand-shaped driver appeared at his waist, and Nencho pulled the Wizard Driver.

""Infinity——! Please——! "

Thus, in the eyes of Ritsuka and the others, who were far away from the Nenju, countless crystals rose up and shimmered in the sky.

It seemed to fill the entire night sky, gathering from above Nianzhuo's head.

"Come on, Haruto—" Her arm slowly moved down, tracing the diamond-like ring across her waist.

Countless crystals formed a giant, blooming flower in the air.

They stood in front of the enormous electric sphere filled with destruction.

"—What is this?" Tesla stood high in the sky, electricity crackling beneath his feet, staring at the suddenly appearing dazzling diamond flower.

The flowers exude endless tenderness, their translucent color seemingly capable of encompassing everything…

The petals bloomed, like welcoming a child home, slowly enveloping the electric sphere in its center.

At the same time, a surge of magical energy, powerful enough to move anyone, erupted from Nian Zhuo's body.

In the blink of an eye, on the Chaldea screen, the detected magical power value of Nenju was close to that of Tesla on the side, and was even increasing.

“What is this…?” Mary, who had never seen such a sight before, stared blankly at the screen, at the sky full of crystals, at the diamond flowers that gently wrapped around white cores, and even at the person standing still with a huge amount of magic power.

Each one of them captivated her.

"So beautiful..." Tesla exclaimed sincerely, just like Ritsuka and the others, captivated by the breathtaking scenery.

"How will you use this magic that surpasses that of Heroic Spirits, Nianzhuo?" Tesla gazed at the shimmering figure on the ground, looking with interest at the flower enveloping the white orb of light.

Crackling sounds filled the air as the petals continued to shatter.

The white current, like a rebellious child, released waves in all directions from within the embrace of the flowers.

However, each time a petal breaks, the surrounding sparkling crystals immediately fill the gap.

The petals, along with the enormous sphere of light, were shrinking simultaneously.

Nian Zhuo on the ground had completely changed his appearance at this moment.

A long robe, pure white and shimmering with iridescent light, reached his legs. His mask and breastplate were adorned with dazzling diamond-like armor. Colorless magic awaited him, transforming into a gentle breeze that brushed against everyone's cheeks.

"Hi-Sui-Fu-Do Bou-Zaba-Byu-Dogon——!"

Kamen Rider Wizard Infinite Form.

“This magic power…” Nian Zhuo could clearly feel that not only were his strength and agility far superior to his previous levels, but the robe he was wearing had even raised his magic power level to EX.

In the sky, Tesla's confident, deadly attack shrank along with the petals, which continued to shatter, but no matter what, they held tightly to the dazzling ball of electricity.

Finally, the petals closed completely, enveloping the electric ball entirely.

"How is this possible!" Tesla felt that his proud attack, the full release of his Noble Phantasm, had lost contact with him after the electric ball was completely enveloped by the flowers.

The flowers, closed, slowly fell from the sky.

At the same time, countless crystals stood around Nian Zhuo's body, reflecting his figure in a state of profound silence.

Nianzhuo gently reached out and caught the falling flower.

Instantly, Tesla felt the magic of his Noble Phantasm reappear, right in Nian Zhuo's palm, in the center of that flower.

But then, his expression changed drastically, and he stared blankly at Nianzhuo, who was holding flowers on the ground.

In the center of her palm, within the diamond-like flower, a small white ball was continuously transforming into a thin stream that connected to Nian Zhuo's body.

"This guy... is actually devouring my magic power...!" Sensing the disappearance of his own magic power, and with the already massive amount of magic power within Nian Zhuo slowly increasing, Tesla was even more incredulous. "How is this possible! Isn't this guy afraid of suddenly exploding and killing him?!"

“My [Infinity] can even convert the opponent’s magic power into my own…” Nian Zhuo slowly absorbed the white ball in his palm, looking up at Tesla in mid-air.

"Then, the spear that attacks you."

The other hand, adorned with a ring, was placed in front of the driver.

Immediately afterward, in Nianzhuo's eyes, the world seemed to freeze...

Whether it was Ritsuka's breathing, which had slowed down countless times, or the tiny dust particles in the air, everything became incredibly slow.

Only he, only Nianzhuo, only [hope], can move freely in this slow-moving world.

This is Wizard's unique skill in Infinite Form: interfering with the flow of time, thus making his super-fast movement possible.

Nian Zhuo walked at a normal pace, but to others, it appeared as if he was constantly shifting.

Crystals gathered behind Nianzhuo, forming wings, and Nianzhuo lightly touched the ground with his toes.

The magic seemed to be an integral part of his body, condensing beneath Nian Zhuo's feet and transforming into transparent crystals that propelled him into the sky.

To others, it would have taken only a moment for Nian Zhuo to arrive in front of Tesla.

"How...is this possible...!" In Tesla's eyes, Nian Zhuo almost instantly completed the process of condensing wings on his back and forming a transparent pillar under his feet, appearing right in front of him.

His body tried to move, but the opponent's magic crushed him in its most primal form.

The mere presence of the magical energy swirling around Nian Zhuo's body made Tesla feel completely immobilized, as if the surrounding space itself had been frozen in place.
