Chapter 264

Hyoga, who was criticized by Lancermello as not being the good boy that Dietel and others wanted to see, had just received an order from the Sanctuary and an invitation from the Gurado Group. Therefore, Hyoga, who was also raised a little crooked by Camus in unknown details, quickly ignored all the additional conditions and extracted the key content of "breaking the ice wall, getting the White Bird Cloth and going to Japan".

"The next match is the White Ornith match." Olgamari was reporting on the progress of the galactic war in the past two days, and also learned about the progress of the plan to catch Poseidon on the other side. "The winner of the last match was Pegasus, and Ursa Major's grip strength is worth seeing - I think if he trains well, he should be able to become a strong monster like Orion?"

"Eh - in other words, Olga, do you think his potential can support him to reach the level of Strength B?" Lansermello pointed at the report that Olgamari had compiled last night, and turned his head to exchange glances with Kirshtalia who was getting familiar with her formal dress. "Is there anything special about Pegasus that deserves attention?"

"From my personal perspective, Pegasus is the same type of person as Ritsuka in terms of combat." Olgamari paused for a moment, and then added, "I'm not referring to Ritsuka's early habit of avoiding enemy attacks first and then trying to counterattack, but the idea that from the fifth special point until now - as long as you can win, you can use any means."

"Even if you use yourself as bait, that's fine."

"...I saw the video footage in the report." Lansermello paused when Pegasus broke free from Ursa Major's grip and came behind him, lowering his gaze bit by bit, "But this is a quality necessary for victory, or in other words--"

"In order to achieve your goals, this is also necessary." The person on duty in the control room today was Fujimaru Ritsuka. She joined the conversation between the elders with a cup of hot cocoa in her hand. "After all, the so-called heroes and protagonists are just that kind of existence - if sacrificing one's life is enough to solve the problem, this type of idiot will not refuse it."

"I heard you scolding us, Fujimaru." Lansermello sighed helplessly and diverted everyone away from the dangerous topic, "But now we will never consider such a solution. After all, only if we try every possible way to survive first - our world is qualified to talk about the future."

"It is undeniable that our current mission priority indicator is always the 100% survival rate of the missioners, rather than the mission completion rate." Kirshtalia recalled the missions she and Fujimaru Ritsuka had gone on together. "We are never reluctant to lend a helping hand to the world that comes to us for help - but that is only because we are sure that we can help them while ensuring our own safety."

"Then, what if this world is eventually dragged into the realm of death by Hades?" William, who was standing by the window, turned around and asked the people on the communication line with a smile, "If this mission has a chance of threatening the missioners who enter this world...what will you do?"

The three lords standing on the ground fell silent at the same moment, focusing their gazes on the face of Fujimaru Ritsuka in the video communication - just like every time in the past.

"If you insist."

——The fourth singularity was repaired and after a brief rest, Fujimaru Ritsuka took Mashu into the basket again and moved to the fifth singularity.

"If you insist on picking him up."

——In the Atlantic News Belt, underground in the mountains of the interstellar city, Olga Marie gave way to the entrance to the Shadow Border and watched as Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash got into the Shadow Border, then watched as the Shadow Border rushed out of the ground and flew towards the great temple in the center of the city.

"If you insist on going before the throne of Camelot - I will find a way to open a passage for you."

——In the fairy kingdom of Britain, after the new queen's army broke through the gates of the royal city of Camelot, Kirshtalia said this to Fujimaru Ritsuka on the chaotic streets.

——As long as you want to do it, we will keep working hard for your wish.

"...We should wait until we are really about to die." Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled at William, one of his teachers. "If there is only a possibility of death, then it would be better to complete the mission and return to Chaldea before dying. After all, dangers that can threaten the life of a third magician are quite rare, right?"

"Fujimaru is right - 'Just complete the mission before you die.'" Lancer Mello looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka's smile and laughed helplessly. "It's obviously only the preliminary preparation stage now. It's too troublesome to start thinking about what to do if it fails at this time, right?"

"Besides, we are actually quite good at counterattacking in desperate situations - aren't we?"

But people are burning with reason - it was a battle that started with failure.

All of humanity was unknowingly killed by the beast of mercy, with only Chaldea left surviving in the sea of ​​fire. The beast of mercy transformed all of humanity's civilization from ancient times to the present into heat enough to burn everything, in preparation for his plan to create a new world where no one would die. Because the source of that heat was humanity itself, there was no human on earth who could resist him.

"Hahaha... That's true." Fujimaru Ritsuka touched his head and smiled bitterly, "There is no scene more desperate than that battle - although ORT can be considered one, but... we only assisted New Chaldea in defeating him. However, this time it is not that desperate."

"A battle that starts with the extinction of all mankind - we in Chaldea have as much experience as we can get."

"And Ritsuka won beautifully." Olgamari praised Fujimaru Ritsuka with a smile, "Although you are a half-baked person who still dozes off in meetings, you are undoubtedly a professional when it comes to saving the world. Even if you were not there this time, we still believe in your judgment - enough to lead us to a reversal in a possible desperate situation."

"Well, the galactic war is about to begin, right?" Lanser-Mero clapped his hands and brought the topic of this impromptu discussion to the fighting match being broadcast live, "Cygnus vs. Hydra - ignoring the characteristics of the protagonists, what do you think of this match?"

"Speaking of Hydra, it's the Hydra, right? The nine-headed snake that was one of the Twelve Trials of Hercules." Fujimaru Ritsuka asked the magicians of the Astronomy Department for confirmation. "If you cut off one head, two new heads will grow immediately. It's a very troublesome monster."

"But from a legendary point of view, Canis Major is still better." Kirshtalia, who was once an equal ally of Zeus, thought about what was known so far and stared at the live projection in the office in deep thought. "After all, Canis Major is the incarnation of Zeus, the white bird that he turned into, the 'swan' - the same as the white bull that Europa rides."

"What about from the perspective of astronomy... no, what about from the perspective of the constellations themselves?" Fujimaru Ritsuka continued to ask.

"It's still Albireo." Olgamari responded to Fujimaru Ritsuka's question. "Although Hydra is the largest and longest constellation, it only has one bright star. Albireo has many, many bright stars. So although Albireo is located completely in the Milky Way, the bright Albireo is still very eye-catching."

"No matter from which angle, the winner will only be Canis Major." Lancer Melo ended this pre-match discussion and started a new topic. "I think you have read the previous data about Canis Major and Aquarius Major. Remember to compare it with the current Canis Major."

"Also, the live matches may start a little later - the White Birds are still on their way."

As soon as Lancermello's voice fell in the headset, Olgamari heard the broadcast in the venue that the start time of the ring would be delayed because of the absence of Acanthus. The Saints who had been standing on the ring to show themselves to the audience jumped out of the ring one by one, and then Acanthus, who was late, landed directly on the ring as lightly as a bird.

"Um... I remember the data said that White Bird is related to Lord, right? Shouldn't he be a member who is more inclined towards the Sanctuary?" Kirshtalia looked at the projection, turned his head and asked Lansermello, "Why did he take the initiative to participate in the galactic war organized by the Guradu Consortium?"

"He was completely corrupted by his teacher." Lanser Mello snorted, "Next year, he will go to the Greek Sanctuary to settle accounts with Aquarius - is this how I taught him to extract the key points? The notice of choosing between the Sanctuary and the Gurado Consortium has automatically become 'taking the White Bird Cloth to Japan' in the hands of the White Bird!"

"That tone..." Olgamari took a sip of her drink and complained, "Kirshtalia, you should be prepared. It seems that Aquarius is treated similarly to you by the Lord. Well, even though he is only called by his zodiac sign. But you should be prepared to be dragged in front of the person by the Lord when the time comes."

"As for magic, I am still very confident." Kirshtalia smiled, and her eyes on Acanthus gradually became sharper. "After all, the older the history of a magic family, the more advanced its magic is. The Vordam family is a famous family with a history of more than a thousand years. Although it is not as good as the monarch's family, it is also enough to be called a noble family."

"No, I think that the second generation of Aquarius who was valued by the deputy director should not have shown any special talent in magic - after all, I have been evaluated as having very good talent as a first generation magician." Fujimaru Ritsuka dragged the cursor and stopped his gaze on a line of words, "Is it possible that he has the same talent as the second generation teacher?"

"I mean - a talent for deconstructing magic and teaching."

"That's what all magicians hate the most - because the more people know about magic, the weaker it becomes, until it becomes completely unusable."

"Although we are no longer bound by this rule since we left our original world."
