Ultimately, left with no other choice, I had to have a proper conversation with them.
But the result
……
As you can see.
"This guy has been haunting me like a ghost."
She reached out and brushed her long black hair aside. Dressed in a red robe, she looked like an elegant ancient person who had appeared out of nowhere.
"I told you I'm not a ghost, I'm a goddess!"
"ghost."
Instead of their almost frantic rebuttals, Fujimaru and Ritsuka just laughed awkwardly.
The only person who would dare to speak to the goddess in such a manner is perhaps none other than the gods of the Age of Gods.
"That's not important."
"You guys probably didn't come here for fun."
Too lazy to bother with the goddess with questionable taste inside her, Rin Tohsaka turned to Fujimaru and Ritsuka and asked.
She already knew Ritsuka's identity, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Isn't it just summoning oneself?
Five years ago in other worlds, she and others had all brought out several "Shirous".
Having gone through the ordeal of "Team Shirou," there's nothing to worry about anymore.
Looking up at the night sky, I saw two different kinds of magic erupting.
One was so restless that it kept one awake, while the other was much weaker, but only relatively speaking.
For magicians, the difference isn't that significant.
Because either of them could lead to their death.
"In fact"
Explaining the current situation, Rin probably understood it quickly.
"That guy Flatt, he really knows how to cause trouble."
"However, in the end, the ghost inside me is also partly to blame."
"I've already said I'm not."
With one hand on her hip, she still exuded that heroic spirit.
However, the occasional self-denial makes it seem somewhat comical and contradictory.
Although this scene made Fujimaru and Ritsuka feel uneasy, they pretended not to see it.
"That heroic spirit is coming for me."
"His real name?"
Rin Tohsaka swiftly and decisively asked for the most important information, her serious attitude befitting her status as a seasoned magician.
"If Rider (Hispanthus) and the teacher (Artoria) go, there shouldn't be any problems."
Considering the current situation, Rin wasn't too worried about the battle there.
Even with his unusual magical reactions, the great hero Alcides could not possibly break through the interception of both the Amazon Queen and the Knight King at the same time.
Is that the problem?
"Is there any way we can intervene?"
Looking up at the sky, Rin Tohsaka spoke.
The battlefield between Alcides and Hippolyta is not the main point.
The high-dimensional battles that take place at an unknown altitude are what truly deserve our attention.
"Aren't you able to summon heroic spirits?"
"Can't we just call in a few guys who specialize in this kind of thing?"
Touching her chin, she looked at Ritsuka in front of her and asked.
"Ordinary heroic spirits can't do anything about it."
"It's like how mystery exists before a higher mystery."
"Even summoning a servant who is a god wouldn't be optimistic."
With a shrug, Ritsuka sighed helplessly.
She certainly has a "partner" in the area of summoning Servants whose abilities are countered by hers.
The problem is that Berserker is no ordinary person.
Even if you drag out a Heroic Spirit like Cú Chulainn with a deadly Noble Phantasm, it would probably just be a futile attempt to stage the famous scene of "Lancer is dead again".
To truly pose a threat, it would have to be at least comparable to the level of a god.
However, this wasn't the first time Gilgamesh, now in his Grand form, had mentioned this to them.
Even though he is a Grand Master, his chances of winning against these monsters are almost zero.
If even the King of Heroes, who is almost at the pinnacle, is like this, it's even harder to expect anything from other ordinary Heroic Spirits.
"I see, the summoned heroic spirit itself wasn't strong enough?"
"Is that why the concept of 'Grand' exists?"
As if she had realized something, Rin Tohsaka turned and whispered.
The Ishtar inside her was watching Fujimaru and Ritsuka with a suspicious gaze.
She also felt a strange sense of familiarity with these two people.
Unlike Rin Tohsaka, who is a "container," this one should be the kind of trace that you've "seen" somewhere before.
Considering that the other party boasted about "summoning a god-level servant," she couldn't help but feel curious.
Could it be that this girl in front of me has the "power" to summon my true form?
"Then why can't you summon a Heroic Spirit stronger than a Grand Servant?"
"Logically speaking, there shouldn't be such a huge difference."
Suddenly, Rin Tohsaka asked, as if she had just thought of something.
She's experienced the Dragon Ball wars before.
Although their lineups appear to be vastly different on the surface, there are still opportunities for them to exploit.
That might be a Noble Phantasm, a yearning desire, or even the personality of a Heroic Spirit.
In short, there will never be a situation where there is absolutely no chance of winning.
Weren't they also quite desperate when they faced Tiamat?
Yet they still managed to fight for a chance at victory.
Therefore, if Ritsuka appears as a Rider, it must prove that she herself possesses at least the power to influence the course of such a battle.
Summoning all sorts of Servants without relying on relics is indeed an exaggerated feat.
But it falls short in this kind of supernatural battle.
Therefore, there must be something that Ritsuka is hiding as a trump card.
This is the conclusion that Rin Tohsaka speculated.
"Yes, there is. But it would be quite terrible."
"Therefore, I don't really want to use it."
With a stiff expression, Ritsuka sighed and answered honestly.
"Essentially, you're a special Servant who commands Heroic Spirits, right?"
"Hmm? At a time like this, why would someone still need to hide? Just how much trouble are they going to cause?"
Tilting their heads, Rin Tohsaka and Ishtar both questioned her statement.
Could it be that he has such "concerns" because he is a particularly wicked character among the gods?
Fujimaru, on the other hand, vaguely sensed why Ritsuka was not insisting on using that "treasure weapon".
There was no explanation or description given to him; it was an unknown Noble Phantasm.
(Not using it is the best)
The explanation was incomprehensible, but Fujimaru felt that it might be related to his current state.
It's not something that's harmful to oneself, but rather a deeper, more profound impact.
In fact, his premonition was correct.
One of Ritsuka's unused Noble Phantasms, [Chaos Evil], is a dangerous object capable of overturning the world.
