The Warrior of Love

We must not sit back and watch these things happen!

The mastermind behind the destruction of the world is the Demon King Goetia, a guy who can reshape the environment of the planet. Compared with him, Jiang Liu is really not worth mentioning.

Of course, Jiang Liu also has his own advantages, that is, he knows very well what Goetia’s weaknesses are, and he also knows the general direction of the plot.

In the original work, Ritsuka was just a novice magician in the end, but he still saved the world. This is proof that mortals can surpass demons.

As long as there is an opportunity, the weak can become strong and create miracles.

——Yes, as long as there is a chance.

However, without the halo of the protagonist, reality will not give you a chance so gently.

Yuanshan Jiangliu doesn't have such opportunity and capital!

The Toyama family is neither a family of magic nor a financial giant, and has no background in any sense of the word.

Yuanshan Jiangliu himself is not a person with special abilities and is almost isolated from the mystery. Even though he has secretly investigated many things, he has not been able to gain anything.

In fact, Jiang Liu did not do nothing in the past ten years. He also learned and accumulated a lot of things, preparing to create a superior material environment for himself and his family in the future - but this is all based on "daily life".

Once he got involved with the mysterious side, everything he had accumulated seemed insignificant.

His connections, financial resources, hidden pen names... if all were exposed, it would be enough to make society exclaim that he is a "child prodigy" or a "genius once in a lifetime", but this is only achieved by him acting as a plagiarist and using cheating methods.

These things that seem so great in the eyes of ordinary people will be ruthlessly crushed by the fire of annihilation.

Even so, he did not give up completely. After all, he was not an ordinary person, but a time traveler who was familiar with the direction of the future. Maybe he also had some kind of "destiny"?

So, in the more than one year before 2016, he went to Fuyuki City, visited Ryudo Temple, and even traveled abroad to London...but it was useless.

In this world line, the three major families of Fuyuki are gone, the Dragon Cave in the back mountain of Ryudo Temple is empty, not even a trace of the Holy Grail is left, and even Father Joy is nowhere to be seen in the church (but if he really is there, Jiang Liu will stay away from him).

As for the London Clock Tower, he was so sad that he couldn't even find the door - he couldn't even break through the secluded barrier.

If he encountered any danger in the process, Jiang Liu might even be a little excited, because this at least proved that he had an intersection with the mysterious side.

However, he didn't even encounter any danger. The whole process was like an idle tourist, which was boring and tedious.

After returning from London, he was almost in despair and did not look for places like Guanbuzi City and Misaki City.

What if I find it?

If he was a natural psychic, or a first-generation magus like Emiya Shirou, he would have attracted many mysterious people in the process.

But since there is no such development, it proves that his physique is that of an "ordinary person" in the true sense of the word.

In the coming doomsday, ordinary people will be just one of the six billion dust particles used as fuel...

The huge shadow of despair enveloped Jiang Liu like cold sea water, pressing and pulling him into the dark abyss, but he was powerless to resist.

His last hope is the main stage of the FGO world line: Chaldea.

This institution disguised as a scientific research observatory is actually a human security agency located in Antarctica. In the original novel, it was here that Li Xiang escaped the human burning, and finally got the help of many heroic spirits to save the world.

If you are chosen by Chaldea to become the Master of a Heroic Spirit, you will have the opportunity to participate in the great cause of fighting against the Burning of Humanity and control the fate of yourself and your family.

Even if one is not a magus, as long as one has a high enough "adaptability to spirit particle transfer", one may be chosen by Chaldea.

After all, according to the original work, this kind of physique is extremely rare and much more precious than a magician. Even if one has no talent for magic, one may be accepted into Chaldea - even if he or she is used as a reserve of the reserve.

For Chaldea, the more people who can perform soul particle transfer, the better, even if they have defects!

But even this road was blocked by the ruthless fate...

That day, while he was shopping with Ritsuka, he encountered Chaldea staff disguised as blood donation vehicles and volunteers.

This is how they screen ordinary people for those who are qualified for spirit particle transfer. Although the probability is extremely low, they are so short of talent that they are willing to do it even if it means looking for a needle in a haystack.

In the original plot, Ritsuka was noticed in this way, and then half-cajoled and half-tricked into coming to Chaldea. It is said that the employee who successfully found Ritsuka was rewarded with a luxury car.

This time, Jiang Liu also donated blood along with his sister who had an overwhelming sense of justice, but the result was disappointing.

Li Xiang still attracted the attention of the staff, who enthusiastically introduced her to the so-called "charity projects" and "part-time jobs", and tried every means to persuade her to work in Chaldea.

And Jiang Liu... just got a sentence of "Thank you for your cooperation, thank you for your love".

At that time, Jiang Liu even had the urge to "just leave it alone and let the world be destroyed." In order to hide his excitement, he directly dragged the dazed Lixiang back home.

To be fair, he was not an immature kid who was easily swayed by emotions. However, even though he knew what kind of disaster would happen in the future, he could not do anything. His efforts and attempts were ruthlessly interrupted time and time again, and he did not even have the qualifications to struggle...

It was just like a prisoner being hanged, who could only feel the pain of suffocation and broken cervical vertebrae while being dragged into the abyss by the god of death, but had no power to resist.

After that, the Chaldean staff even came to invite Ritsuka directly and promised her that it would only be a short-term part-time job.

Li Xiang is a lively, cheerful and helpful person. After hearing that it was a "public welfare cause" and seeing many official certificates, he was already interested.

However, what finally prompted her to accept the invitation was Jiang Liu.

The specific reason is unknown, but she seems to be avoiding Jiang Liu recently.

Originally, over the course of a year, the brother and sister had eliminated their estrangement and became very close to each other, but recently, Ritsuka has inexplicably become distant from her brother.

"I don't know how to face my brother right now. Please give me some time."

——Leaving behind these words, the black-haired, blue-eyed girl left home.

Unexpectedly, the Yuanshan couple did not object to their daughter leaving home, but Jiang Liu suspected that the magicians used some kind of suggestion...which made him even more conflicted.

Because he found that he couldn't fight against Goetia, let alone ordinary magicians. In this dangerous world, he couldn't protect his family at all!

This made him lament his own powerlessness, and his inner thoughts gradually changed. Something that could be called "reluctance" or "ambition" inevitably began to sprout...

-

One evening, Jiang Liu came to a secluded hillside alone, sat on a bench and looked at the distant horizon.

He has been coming to this place frequently recently, like a death row inmate tearing a calendar, waiting for something to come in silence.

He did not give up completely. Although he did not enter the mysterious world in the past year, he began to exercise and did not stop even after Ritsuka left.

Compared to the strength of the enemy, his struggle seemed a little ridiculous... But he just didn't want to sit there and wait for death, even if it was futile.

Then, tonight's night did not come quietly as usual -

At that moment, Jiang Liu couldn't even recognize what he was seeing.

Red, only red.

Like fire, like blood, like pulsating entrails, like the worst nightmare.

The blood-soaked sky was soaked in red as waves of blood surged in from the distant place like a tidal wave, and the clouds evaporated clean in an instant.

In just a few seconds, the world fell into a swaying sea of ​​red fire, like the ashes of karma, and the black corpses were flying lightly in the atmosphere.

Jiang Liu breathed a long sigh of relief, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and sent the preset message.

He didn't know whether the other party could receive it, but this was the only thing he could do.

【Ritsuka, take care of yourself. 】

In the last few seconds of the end of the world, when the raging fire was about to sweep down and turn him into ashes, Jiang Liu suddenly raised his head and stood up from the bench.

He felt he should do something.

Everything that happened after he came into this world flashed through his mind at a rapid speed, including the time he spent with his father, his lonely writing, his interactions with his new family, the little things he had with Li Xiang, his journey of exploring the mystery, and the anger and unwillingness after all his hopes were shattered...

After a pause, the corner of the boy's mouth suddenly curled up in an extremely bad arc, and when his body was completely consumed by the flames, he raised his right hand -

He gave the bloody sky a fierce middle finger!

"Fuck you!"

Chapter 3: Records of Vientiane

"Am I... still alive?"

When he came to his senses, Jiang Liu had already sat up with a confused look on his face, and subconsciously looked around.

"I should... Oh, it's the burning of humanity! I should have been wiped out!"

The last scene in my memory was a fire that engulfed the world like a sea of ​​knowledge, and the earth turned to ashes. The last message from my body was an indescribable burning pain.

The feeling was too real. Jiang Liu was sure that it was not an illusion. However, if it was a fact that had already happened, it could not explain why he was still alive.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself down, Jiang Liu began to observe the surrounding scenery carefully, but after looking around for a while, he frowned.

The world in black and white.

It is not an exaggerated description, but an objective statement.

This space has no extra colors, it is almost pure black and white, like an old photograph.

The scenery in this "old photo" was exactly the small hill where Jiang Liu was before!

However, at this moment, everything has stopped and lost its color. Even the fire that destroys the world seems to be frozen in amber.

The nearest flame was actually only ten centimeters away from Jiang Liu's body, which was enough for him to feel the extreme heat and burning pain. However, now -

The world hit pause.

No... maybe Jiang Liu himself has become independent from the time flow.

Recalling that words like "emergency escape" seemed to have appeared in his mind before, Jiang Liu seemed to understand something.

After a while, he discovered the only abnormal existence in this space besides himself.

"Stones? In a place like this?"

About thirty meters away from him - to be honest, he had lost his sense of distance so was just guessing - a stone platform about half a person's height and three feet square suddenly appeared.

If you look closely, you will see that it is actually some distance from the ground, that is, it is "suspended".

The dark stone platform was particularly eye-catching, making Jiang Liu wonder "why did I just notice it now?"

After looking around and making sure there was nothing unusual, Jiang Liu stood up and tried to walk towards the stone platform.

However, it was at this stop that he discovered that his body was exceptionally "light". When he concentrated and took a closer look, he found that his body and clothes had become faintly translucent. When he distracted his attention a little, they returned to their original appearance.

"Isn't the me now the 'real' me? A soul? An illusion? A consciousness?"

Is his body still somewhere in the outside world?

I feel so uneasy!

When he was three meters away from the stone platform, Jiang Liu stopped cautiously and began to examine this unusual object carefully.

It is completely black without any other colors, and its texture is between stone and crystal. Its square shape does not look like any mechanical creation, except for the lines on the surface that look like integrated circuits, which make people pay attention.

Jiang Liu frowned, and after thinking it over again and again, he tentatively reached out his hand and gently "touched" the surface of the stone platform.

"—"

In an instant, a shock wave like an electric shock swept through Jiang Liu's body, almost destroying his consciousness and making him faint again, but he finally gritted his teeth and stood up.

"Uhhhhhh!!"

As Jiang Liu squeezed out a suppressed groan from between his teeth, the lines on the surface of the black stone flashed with a strange light, as if triggering something, and the stone platform disintegrated along the hundreds of lines into long strips, and then shattered into thousands of small crystals.

"Wow—"

Just like a stream of water gathered together, countless black crystals roamed in the air, sometimes tumbling, sometimes gathering, sometimes dispersing, transforming into wonderful geometric shapes, but finally all fell into Jiang Liu's hands and were fixed into flat rectangles.

Just after it was officially fixed, the electric shock feeling finally disappeared from Jiang Liu. The boy almost fell down and was just barely supporting his body.

After shaking his head to make himself more conscious, Jiang Liu looked at the object in his hand with a serious expression.

"Is this... a book?"

In his hand was an unnamed book with a jet-black cover, as thick as a bound Bible, but much larger in size.

The reason why it is called Nameless is that there is neither a book title nor any emblem or logo on the cover. Only extremely thin lines like integrated circuits can be vaguely seen.
