"If we can proactively find traces of assassin, the situation will become more favorable."
While following the Spear of Ouranos swimming in the blood, Animusfia said to Fujimaru Ritsuka behind her.
"So she's not actually strong?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka, who once again hung the mercury star on his chest, asked rhetorically.
Although the mercury star will still float above the girl's shoulders and keep rubbing her face.
But in fact, if you ignore the appearance, this guy is just a clingy pet.
It doesn't seem like much of a threat.
After looking at it for a long time, Fujimaru Ritsuka even thought this golden round creature with eyes was a bit cute.
Is it possible that my aesthetics will change if I stay here?!
Ignoring the girl's troubled expression, Animusfia answered her question.
"I only fought with Assassin for a moment, so I don't know for sure. Theoretically speaking, the assassin's combat ability is the lowest among the servants, but... she looks a little strange. I'm afraid she has a spiritual base.
What has changed, so it’s hard to say”
"Huh? Is that assassin weird?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka recalled that Camilla looked like she had dragon horns, scales and a long tail, which was not that strange compared to wyverns and giant dragons.
In Fuyuki City, the last singular point, she even saw skeletons running around in groups in the city.
Things beyond common sense happened one after another, and even the pendant could turn into an unknown creature and rub against itself in the next second.
Fujimaru Ritsuka no longer thinks that anything in this world will not happen.
"Do you remember the incantation Assassin chanted before teleporting us into this space?"
Animusfia asked Fujimaru Ritsuka.
The girl put her index finger against her cheek and answered slowly:
"Hmm... I remember it was something like... the terminal of rumors, Chakdis City or something like that. Just based on these features, do you know that her real name is the vampire Camilla?
"
"Although it is indeed relatively unpopular knowledge, the 21st century is an era of information explosion. As long as you are willing to understand, there is nothing that you cannot access."
"But what does this have to do with whether Camilla looks strange or not?"
"This is about the legend of Assassin during his lifetime. You just said that Camilla was sung as a vampire. Among the 'non-human' monsters, vampires are the most similar to humans. That's it.
Because of this, vampires that can lurk in human society are feared."
"But Assassin doesn't look like a human being at all, does he?"
The bloody dragon claws and Camilla's thick tail left a deep impression on Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"That's why I said she looks a little strange. As a vampire, Camilla had no legends related to dragons during her lifetime."
As the two of them moved forward, the blood mist gradually became thinner.
"Ah, maybe the Dragon Witch added dragon attributes to her like madness."
"No. Madness is an attribute that can be added artificially, but the dragon species is the key element that constitutes the foundation of the spiritual foundation and cannot be changed at will."
Animusfia shook her head.
"And if the Dragon Witch can do this, the archers and ncers who attacked us before should also turn into dragons."
Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Animusfia's missing left arm.
"Sure enough, the magic trick last night was cast by the director."
"Well, that's true. It's hard not to be noticed. But it's embarrassing, ncer interrupted."
"Did you win?"
"Oh, it's so cool."
Animusfia chuckled.
"Did you also lose a hand?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes were slightly dim.
"It's not a loss to defeat a hero who has left his name in history at the cost of an arm. It seems that I am stronger than that heroic spirit."
Although the battle with Vlad III was unsuccessful, Animusfia decided to brag in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"Be a hero..."
The girl was silent for a while before speaking slowly.
"If you want to say that, I can't deny it. You actually heard the conversation between me and Black Saber, right? I came here just to be a hero."
"Feel sorry."
"Huh? What do you have to be sorry for?"
Animusfia was a little surprised.
"If we choose to go with the director, we won't be able to fight, and our arms won't——"
"No."
Animusfia interrupted Fujimaru Ritsuka's words, put her remaining right hand on the girl's bright red hair and started rubbing it.
"Perhaps if you come with me, I can really save my arm. You just choose to help others between helping me and helping others. Ncer and the Dragon Witch, if you blame yourself for this, then there is no need.
"
Animusfia was still puzzled before, the girl's attitude towards him was a bit strange.
Unexpectedly, he was struggling with this. If it were Animusfia himself, he wouldn't care.
He is indeed a person who can accomplish the great task of saving the world.
It is fundamentally different from Animusfia.
Animusfia decided to save the world because she wanted to be a hero who could save the world, while Ritsuka Fujimaru came to save the world because she really wanted to save the world.
Although the results are the same, the motivations are completely different.
Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes became determined again.
He rearranged his messed up hair, stared at Animusfia's unbalanced back and said:
"Next time, I will help the director."
After hearing this, Animusfia couldn't help but look back at the girl, and then burst into laughter.
"Then I'll look forward to it, but it's not that easy to help me."
The two of them continued to follow the Spear of Ouranos, which was twisting in the blood.
...
"Speaking of that child of Mercury Star, to be precise, I am the biological father and you are the adoptive mother."
"..."
Fujimaru Ritsuka was silent for a while.
"Director, you definitely don't have a girlfriend, or have you never even been in love?"
"Huh? Why do you say that?"
Animusfia's face was full of doubts. He had indeed never been in love. Could it be that Fujimaru Ritsuka still had the talent to learn divination?
"Then who is its biological mother?"
The girl grabbed the mercury star floating quietly above her shoulder and placed it in front of Animusfia.
Mercury Star blinked at Animusfia with its huge eyes.
"Then... of course not. In the end, it's just a metaphor. Don't take it so seriously."
"So don't be so serious!"
The blood mist gradually lost its trace.
*********
Looking at the hell-like scene in front of him, Ma Xiu couldn't help but swallow a gulp.
Giorgios also looked at the scene in front of him with a solemn expression.
There were wooden piles hanging with female mummies all around, and the endless pool of blood on the ground now had an entrance to the ground. Like liquid chocolate from a Western pastry, the blood flowed smoothly into the pit.
And a staircase of blood like a waterfall.
From time to time, the roar of the dragon can be vaguely heard coming from the stairs where the bottom cannot be seen. This chapter has been completed!
