The brilliance of the Milky Way may be able to dispel the despair of the dark universe.
But that's all in the future.
Fujimaru Ritsuka was merely an observer of the "Black Knight" in his sleep.
At this moment, she was unaware of the seriousness of the situation regarding the Azure Galaxy.
What's really annoying is that her soul often wanders off when she's sleeping or unconscious... and then she doesn't know where it ends up.
Then you're completely confused, unable to even understand the worldview, which is very distressing.
However, one thing is certain...
X should have returned safely to her universe.
May the elements of Artori be with her.
I woke up in the early morning to find no sunshine and a blizzard howling outside the window.
But Chaldea remains unchanged.
"Sata! I'm going to work hard from now on!"
"Today, as always, let's continue practicing illusionary manipulation and improving our physical fitness... and then learn magic from Director Olga Marie."
The blonde girl said this on the first day of the new year.
"Fu! Fu!"
A small white beast climbed onto Fujimaru Ritsuka's body.
It made cute little noises in the girl's arms.
"Hmm...you know, I'm starting to feel like I'm not human anymore...what am I going to do, Fufu?"
Gently picking at Fufu's little white pet, Fujimaru Ritsuka sighed and said.
"If this continues, it won't be fun if Mashu becomes more human than me."
"F——!"
Fufu patted Fujimaru Ritsuka's head with her little paws.
"No...don't do that, I was just kidding...really, you really are a devil."
Fufu is truly amazing; not only can she understand human speech, but she can also comprehend other people's emotions.
Is the next step to speak?
"I still haven't figured out what species you are..."
"Fu~~?"
Fufu shuddered.
Then the wife began to struggle.
"Ah, I know, you must be super excited, right? Because even you don't know what species you are, so you're extremely happy and dancing around, right!"
Holding up the tiny fou in both hands, Fujimaru Ritsuka happily said, "Oh, how about I look it up for you right now, or ask the princess for you..."
Fufu was even happier.
They danced and gesticulated even more wildly.
Wow——!
The door to the private room slid open.
A cute purple-haired girl walked in.
Fujimaru Ritsuka loosened her grip, and with a snap, little Fufu broke free from Ritsuka's clutches.
It ran to Mashu's side in a few steps, letting out a panicked cry.
"Seriously, is Senior bullying Fufu-san again?"
Mashu looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with a hint of reproach.
"No, how could I possibly bully it... Fufu and I are really good friends, right?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka blinked.
"This is not the time for jokes, senior."
Mashu suddenly said seriously:
"Dr. Roman asked me to remind you that the coordinates of the next singularity have been located. Please prepare yourself and proceed to the control room."
"Is it?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes sharpened.
"So you've got work to do, Mashu?"
"Yes, senior."
"Very good, then let's cheer up and get ready to go!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka gave a thumbs up: "Mash, let's do our best together!"
Looking at Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mash nodded heavily.
"Yes! Please guide me, senior!"
—And so, while X continued to resolve the crisis in the Azure Galaxy, Fujimaru Ritsuka also continued on her path to save humanity.
Chapter 149 Fujimaru Ritsuka doesn't understand.
"Fear not! Glorious mechanized troops! You are the proud warriors of the United States of America, the elite forces under the President!"
"We must defend this position no matter what!"
"Whether slaves, natives, or immigrants... whether police officers or cowboys... we have no way out. This is not a battle for the New World! It is a battle for the survival of humanity!"
This is no ordinary American soldier.
It's hard to even imagine that these soldiers could be called soldiers.
They all look like little Babbage.
"Yes, sir!"
A muffled sound emanated from the mechanical steam armor.
The soldiers marched forward in neat rows, the machine gun barrels on their arms gleaming with a chilling light, ready to unleash deadly fire at any moment.
What made these soldiers so ready for battle was no ordinary enemy.
The enemy looked as if they had stepped out of a storybook; they were dressed in ancient armor, wielding giant axes and shields, and each warrior seemed to have a burning passion for battle in their eyes.
Within the muscles lies incredible power.
They are always ready to tear apart any obstacles in their path.
This is a battlefield, a battlefield that should never have existed in this era.
Its purpose was probably to prevent this country, which would play a pivotal role in the future, from ever being established.
"This is the intelligence on this battlefield."
Fujimaru Ritsuka said, "Anyway, although we don't know what happened, neither the warriors from the classical era nor the Iron Man from the industrial era seem to be quite normal."
With her golden ahoge swaying gently, Fujimaru Ritsuka sat cross-legged in the dense forest, speaking to the two people in front of her, as well as Dr. Roman from Chaldea.
As for why it was two people...
For some reason, it seems that Artoria Caster was also able to come to this singularity, and then she followed along.
"I see..."
Dr. Roman nodded and said, "If neither side is normal, then there is no doubt that neither side is the one we need to unite with. If we can find the founders of this era in America, such as Washington or Jefferson, then we should be able to find the anchor that laid the foundation for human reason."
"I don't think it's that simple~~"
Fujimaru Ritsuka waved her hand:
"However, there must also be lone, unaffiliated followers in this era. If we gather all our strength, we can simply wipe out both sides."
"Once we eliminate all the anomalies on both sides, we can leave the rest to the Americans to decide. We have faith in their wisdom."
As Fujimaru Ritsuka said this, she finalized the battle plan.
"Well..."
Castor frowned, his hands gripping his wand, his face contorted in pain.
"What's wrong, Caster?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka quickly asked, "Is there something wrong with my judgment?"
"Well..."
Castor's legs went weak.
"It's alright, Miss Caster. Please feel free to point out any problems. You can also point out any errors in your senior's judgment, since we are partners."
"Yes, yes!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"No... actually it's—"
Gollum~~
Castor blushed and said somewhat shyly, "I feel a little hungry, I'm really sorry."
"Ah...this..."
Fujimaru Ritsuka was slightly stunned.
"Cast must have had breakfast, right?"
"Um..." The girl lowered her head shyly, "I'm sorry."
"Well, never mind..." Fujimaru Ritsuka sighed. "Mash, let's get out the compressed rations first, even if they're only enough to fill our stomachs."
Castor lowered his head even further.
"Senior! The compressed rations are gone!"
"Mashu said in a panic, her face turning pale."
Castor whistled as he casually looked around the woods.
"Haha...the vegetation here is so different from that in Britain, the trees are so tall...wait, this is the first time I've ever seen anything like it..."
—Okay, the prisoner understands now.
However, she still gets hungry after eating the compressed rations, which is truly befitting of an Artoria-type Servant.
"Well, there's no other way then. Let's just bear with it for now and find a spiritual vein to establish a base. If we're lucky, we'll receive supplies from Chaldea today."
Fujimaru Ritsuka's "Imagination Manifestation" has not yet reached the precision of creating things out of thin air, so she cannot conjure food out of thin air.
"Sigh... Sometimes I feel really useless. [Imagination Manifestation] is such a powerful ability, yet I can't do anything with it..."
For some reason, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly had this thought.
"No...no, Ritsuka, I didn't mean that. I was just too greedy...I absolutely didn't mean to blame Ritsuka—"
Castor waved his hands frantically, his little feet in blue boots trembling nervously.
"Ah, it's not Castor's fault."
Looking at the slightly yellowish sky, Fujimaru Ritsuka's cat-like vertical pupils narrowed.
"This is something I, as a Master, should have thought of long ago... Well, what's next... um?!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka hadn't finished speaking.
But in an instant, I sensed a very powerful spiritual base reaction coming from a certain direction.
Castor immediately became serious.
"Ritsuka... there's a very strong energy over there."
Caster said somewhat nervously, "In terms of sheer size of spirit origin, they seem to be much stronger than me. If it were a head-on battle... I might not be confident of winning..."
