Chapter 38. Let me teach you the last magic trick, Goetia (Part 1)

Mashu died.

The drifting north wind tells of the moment of departure.

This is the natural outcome.

Without external help.

If there is no bond of help.

Chaldea, this little ship sailing to the end of the world, should have sunk in the previous difficult battles.

But when reality is pretentious and cold reality is right in your face.

Everyone suddenly realized that this cruel reality was so suffocating and painful.

Almost everyone shared the same hatred for the enemy.

If the audience has a blue and red button at hand, press the blue button to enter the video editor and press the red button to enter Goetia, then I'm afraid no one will press 1, everyone will press 2.

Professor Oak, a spirit expert in Pallet Town in Kanto, finally figured out why the editor deliberately included the resurrection segment.

"The editor is really good at creating atmosphere."

"They warned the audience not to get too excited, and at the same time played a lot of tragic clips to attract attention. At the end..."

"The appearance of Dr. Romani Akiman will bring the entire story to its peak of popularity."

Having said that, the old doctor put down the Pokémon Encyclopedia and turned to watch the plot carefully.

within the screen.

Under the mist of the vast galaxy.

Only Li Xiang's lonely figure was left.

Mashu, gone.

Perfectly fulfilled his duties and fought to the end.

He thoroughly fulfilled his duties as a Chaldean Servant and completed her wish on the eve of their departure.

"Mashu..."

The young man stood there in a daze, and in the blink of an eye, many images flashed through his mind.

Mashu's every smile and frown was engraved in her memory, flooding back like a tide.

He looked at his arm which was still stretched out, and the trembling arm was still not lowered... He knew very well that his subconscious mind was resisting the current situation.

"Fu..." The fantasy beast wagging its tail beside it also whispered softly, its eyes full of sadness fixed on the lonely shield, quietly paying tribute to the familiar girl.

Mash Kyrielight.

She has been carrying her dreams and growing up on a bumpy road.

Did she finally find what she wanted before dying...?

Is this what wish means?

Dull, uninteresting...

Does it make sense...

[It's meaningless. It's really meaningless.]

[We are immortal. As long as we are still in the Temple of Time Solomon, we, the 72 Demon Gods, will not be extinct.]

Goetia realized it clearly.

All the episodes so far have reached their final moment.

The fairy tales of young boys and girls will also be burned to ashes along with the raging fire that spreads across the sky.

All that is left is a vast expanse of desolation.

[Your brief existence and confrontation with the heroic spirits are all meaningless. ]

He spoke calmly.

When he raised his hands and looked up, halo filled the air.

The surging demonic flames are recharged and condensed.

The third treasure is being reloaded.

【You two shall go to hell together! 】

Say so.

Goetia continued to look at the boy.

Within the Demon Pillar's identification system, it is impossible to have any curiosity about the emotions of a dying creature.

Anger, hatred, disgust...so what?

This is the nature of biology.

Goetia just wanted to take a look.

[Are you worthy of her doing this?]

Holding such emotion.

The picture shook for a moment, as Goetia's line of sight expanded and then contracted.

The last frame shows the young man standing alone in the scorched earth.

The screen shrank and finally stopped at the boy's face.

【...】

[Unbelievable]

Follow the line of sight.

He saw the boy's expression.

【I see..】

[Even so, you haven't lost your fighting spirit yet?]

On his other side.

The boy's unyielding figure.

His eyes were red, but he still stood there stubbornly.

The emotions that had been full of courage until now were also mixed with a gray color.

【...】

Goetia knew.

It was a sentiment he was all too familiar with.

It is hatred.

The young man killed Mashu in anger.

[But he still stood there, neither running away nor retreating]

[Why do you still continue this meaningless resistance? ]

Goetia would not understand.

I don’t want to understand either.

Whether living things have faith, whether living things have hope, these are things that he, who is beyond ordinary creatures, would not think about.

“The light of humanity is the burning day in the fields and the fading loneliness in the evening. This process of returning is the essence of human history.”

In Chaldea.

Seeing Goetia's confusion, Romani's relaxed smile disappeared.

Looking at these familiars who were born with many negative emotions and were once the servants of the demon gods who were famous all over the world,

He whispered about the Fujimaru Ritsuka he knew;

"He will be defeated, but he will never be defeated. That is his true nature."

“Although this young man has temporarily fallen behind, he still has not lost his rightful position as the savior who created and painted this epic.”

"That's right.. From the beginning to the end, Ritsuka and Mashu complement each other;"

Thinking of this, Roman turned sideways to look at the potted plants beside him, looked at the thriving flowers, and pointed at the soil beside them: "We are like this soil, providing you with nutrients."

After saying that, he pointed to the green leaves and said, "Mashu is the green leaf, embellishing and protecting the corolla."

Finally, the doctor looked at the flower in the middle and said softly, "Er Lixiang, you are the crown of the flower... growing stronger and stronger, and finally blooming... so beautiful and poetic."

Yes...thinking along the way.

The young boy and girl have gone through so many hardships.

How could I be overwhelmed by sadness?

He stood there, his figure standing still.

His red eyes were filled with blood, and his hair was filled with anger.

The anger is palpable..

That's right..

Mashu is dead!!

However, he will not back down!!!

【...】

Is this really the case...

The end of mankind, the final outcome...

"Ah, I will allow you to launch the final attack on me. Because I understand how you feel."

It's not that I understand the pain that Fujimaru Ritsuka is feeling.

It's not that I understand Ritsuka Fujimaru's feelings.

Refers to understanding.

It’s for humans.

There's the catharsis of witnessing tragedy for this species.

then.

Maybe it was as a sign of pity for Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Goetia said something that the audience found strange.

"Consider it a sacrifice for Mash Kyrielight. Just touch my body with your weak human fist and die."

...

mercy.

As if mocking mercy.

"This guy thinks he's being merciful, but he's wrong!"

In Fuyuki. A layer of frost covered Emiya Shirou's resolute face, and he said sternly: "This behavior... is nothing but rubbing salt into the wound, it is blasphemy. Because it is an inevitable law that people will die when they are killed, but he regarded this behavior as a reward for charity after killing Mashu."

Similar to charity [mercy].

Looking at Goetia like this.

Fujimaru Ritsuka realized this clearly.

This is my only show before the final curtain call.

Maybe I will die... maybe I will end up in the same place as Mashu.

"very good!"
