Two little emperors appeared, so who should I listen to? One said there was no need to destroy the world for the sake of the empire, and the other said that certain sacrifices were necessary for the sake of his eternal empire. The stubborn Bud suddenly didn't know what to say.

But he knew one thing: once he had chosen his side, he must never betray it!

In the end, Bud made his own choice, which was for the empire and for His Majesty, because he was the general of the empire.

And when he saw Esdeath, Bud officially made his choice!

Esdeath is standing against the Empire and against His Majesty, so I must stand on the side of the Empire!

Bud needs to check and balance, and needs to deal with Esdeath. Esdeath's ideas and what she did in the first singularity, no matter whether this Esdeath is the person who has the memory of the first singularity, Bud will not let her go.

If Esdeath had not betrayed her, she might have been able to take a few more Servants for the empire. Then, if Her Majesty and I joined forces, even if Koizumi and Yakumo Yukari were strong, they might not be able to do anything to Her Majesty and me.

Then, your majesty's wish will be realized and the Eternal Empire will be successful.

As for whether the world will be destroyed, Bud is not interested. He is loyal to the empire, not the so-called justice!

This was General Bud's belief, and also General Bud's regret, that he was unable to protect the empire to the end during his lifetime.

He - General Bud, is the last pillar of the empire and the last loyal ghost of the empire!

The aura released from Bud's body was powerful enough to affect reality and even slightly distort space.

This can only be done in the imperial capital. Bud has obtained the blessing of the entire empire.

The strength of Bud in front of him is comparable to or even stronger than when he fought against Reimu and the other two in the first singularity.

Feeling the immense aura of the person before him, a scarlet light slowly rose from Koizumi's body.

"He's still as terrifying as ever! As long as he's your enemy, we'll definitely have to face him. It's really troublesome!"

As if expressing his feelings, Gu Quan glanced at the little emperor beside him, his face full of complex expressions.

Really, Koizumi really doesn't want to be an enemy of Bud. A top-level Servant like him, who carries such a strong belief and will not fall down easily even if seriously injured, has the qualifications to be called a hero.

However, he can only be a hero of the empire and is not qualified to be called a hero of the world.

"General Bud... If possible, I don't want to be your enemy... After all... Sigh..."

The little emperor didn't know what to say. Bud was a loyal minister, but his stubborn thinking made him quite helpless.

To put it bluntly, he was too stubborn. The young emperor was helpless with such a minister, but he still kept Bud's loyalty in his heart, even though he was standing against him at this moment.

The young emperor knew very well that Bud was merely standing on the side of the empire, which was a normal choice for an imperial general.

The little emperor would not blame him, just as he would not blame Najeshitan, nor would he blame General Bud.

Although he was still a little depressed, when he first saw General Bud, he was confident that he would come to help him, but he didn't expect that he would actually stand on the side of his other self. This was really...

If Bud is a friendly force, he is definitely the most trustworthy. If Bud is an enemy, he is definitely the most troublesome. At the beginning, the little emperor wanted to join forces with Medusa to deal with Bud, but fortunately, Esdeath is here now.

If Esdeath and Bud were to fight, I believe Esdeath would not refuse.

"Your Majesty, I am ashamed of you!" Bud lowered his head towards the little emperor in front of him.

"It doesn't matter. It's me, and you haven't betrayed me... You just made your own choice! In fact, I should be the one apologizing to you. After all, it's me who made you so miserable."

"That's not your Majesty's fault..."

"No, that's my fault! I'm not the incompetent emperor who refuses to admit his mistakes! Don't treat me as a perfect emperor. I know exactly what kind of emperor I am! As a subject, all you have to do is accept my apology!"

"Yes!" Although Bud was very pleased, he still felt a lot of pressure after hearing what the little emperor said.

His Majesty has also grown up... As a veteran minister of two dynasties, he has been keeping an eye on the young emperor's actions from the time he ascended the throne until his own death, and he is extremely worried that the young emperor has always trusted Ernest.

But now seeing the little emperor's mature performance, Bud felt extremely relieved.

"Alright! I've said everything I need to say, and I've admitted my mistakes! Leave this old stubborn man to me. The rest of you, hurry up and go to that monstrous His Majesty. Honestly, fighting him is pointless. An ineffective attack isn't a fight at all, it's a one-sided crushing! It's so boring!"

Given Esdeath's thirst for war, she actually found fighting the little emperor's other half rather boring. This is debatable, but Esdeath's opinion of the little emperor's other half subtly confirms a suspicion in Koizumi's mind.

Not only Gu Quan, but even the young emperor had almost guessed the true nature of absolute imperial power.

"However, if it is as I (I) think, then this absolute imperial power is too unfair!"

Gu Quan and the little emperor thought the same thing.

However, before the two could say anything, Esdeath and Bud had already collided with each other.

Ice and lightning filled the entire space, quickly forcing Koizumi and the others to retreat.

"Brother, what should we do next?" Leone turned his gaze to Koizumi.

The current commander is Koizumi, so naturally they all obey him.

After a moment of silence, Koizumi turned his gaze towards the two people.

—Stheno and Chelsea.

Chapter 883 The Body of Dreams

Stheno and Chelsi were left behind by Koizumi, mainly because Stheno and Chelsi were of no use.

Putting Chelsea aside, she herself was a person with a wavering stance. Although she might be more inclined towards Koizumi, she didn't say much, which meant that Chelsea had no intention of betraying the Empire.

And according to Celia, they couldn't do anything to the little emperor's half body, which meant that before the absolute imperial power was broken, Chelsea and the others couldn't do anything to the little emperor's half body, so it was useless to bring it with them.

Not only is it completely useless, but it also adds two more sitting ducks, which will probably become a burden when the time comes.

Therefore, Koizumi didn't plan to take two people with him, and only wanted those with fighting ability to go.

Although the servants who had signed a contract with him would return to Chaldea, it didn't matter if they died.

But Koizumi absolutely does not advocate meaningless death. That's why Koizumi has never issued a death order. It's simply because it's meaningless. Meaningless death only makes people feel heartbroken for nothing, so Koizumi doesn't like it.

"What a terrifying battle! We have no chance of intervening..."

Leona couldn't help but sigh. She had never seen people of this level fight each other in her life.

However, the little emperor could understand that in such a battle, even if he participated in it, he would inevitably end up dead.

"Normal. The difference between you and those two is the same as Master's instant defeat of the Wild Hound before."

"There's nothing we can do. The gap in strength is simply too great. Your strength is on the same level as regular Servants, perhaps even slightly stronger than them. However, compared to Esdeath and Bud, the gap is still too great."

Without mentioning anything else, let's just say that if Gilgamesh fights Diarmuid seriously, how long can Diarmuid last?

Gilgamesh could have fully unleashed the Gate of Babylon. With Diarmuid's skill, there's no way he could have avoided the bombardment of so many Noble Phantasms. As for why Koizumi always uses Gilgamesh as an example, it's because Gilgamesh left such a deep impression on Koizumi. He's the only Servant Koizumi has ever seen who possessed the strength of a top-tier Servant but managed to kill himself. It was truly shameful.

If this guy had given his all from the beginning, Koizumi might not have been able to defeat him.

"That's true. In the face of absolute strength, even the most powerful tactics won't be of any use!"

Lubbock smiled bitterly. He was thinking of Night Raid's fear of Esdeath during his lifetime, and how many of his comrades had sacrificed their lives for this. Among them, Susanoo was killed by Esdeath because he was trying to cover everyone's retreat.

Although Susanoo also forced out Esdeath's secret technique, this is indeed worthy of admiration.

Even Esdeath had to acknowledge Susanoo and remember him as a warrior instead of an imperial weapon.

"That may not be the case!" Koizumi disagreed with Lubbock's opinion.

"There is no such thing as an absolutely strong person in this world. There are always higher mountains than others. You'd better not overthink it!"

Koizumi doesn't believe that there are truly truly powerful individuals in this world; the very purpose of tactics is to defeat the strong with the weak.

In the face of absolute strength, even the most powerful tactics are useless. While this statement makes sense, it is based on a relatively absolute situation. However, in this world, there is absolutely no such thing as an absolutely strong person. The so-called absolute is merely an absolute created in a relative situation...

In the eyes of Leone and others, Esdeath is like this, but in the eyes of others, that may not be the case.

For example, Koizumi knew that the young emperor possessed an Imperial Gear that could destroy Imperial Gear. Although he wasn't sure if it could destroy the Devil's Essence that had been fused with Esdeath... it should be able to have a certain effect on Esdeath.

For some reason, the little emperor remained silent after leaving Bud and going to the palace.

I guess I'm about to see another me, so I feel a little complicated.

Gu Quan glanced at the little emperor and didn't say much, but in those eyes, Gu Quan vaguely saw more things. Until now, Gu Quan had not asked the other party many questions because Gu Quan wanted to wait until the other party told him actively. Now it seems that he no longer needs to wait, because Gu Quan can also sense the changes in the little emperor.

As he continued to approach the center of the palace, the little emperor's body began to undergo some subtle changes.

The breath was erratic, as if it existed here, but as if it would completely disappear in the next second.

The spiritual base is extremely unstable and even has a tendency to collapse... So this guy has been fighting in this posture all the time?

"Finally here!" The little emperor didn't notice Gu Quan's attention to him and just looked ahead.

At this moment, everyone's eyes and attention were on the supreme throne. In the magnificent palace, the emperor who was sitting on the highest position and was sleeping soundly was undoubtedly the enemy of everyone present.

Looking at the half-body of the little emperor who was still sleeping, Marin suddenly felt angry.

A golden beam of light shot out from the Romantic Battery, heading mercilessly towards the emperor on the supreme throne.

Neither Gu Quan nor the little emperor tried to stop him, because they both knew full well that the other party wasn't asleep at all.

When his eyes opened, a golden beam of light appeared in front of him in an instant. An inexplicable power emanated from the little emperor's half body, but disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. The golden beam of light all fell on the little emperor's half body.

Smoke and dust rose up, covering half of the little emperor's body on the seat.

From what Guquan and the little emperor could sense, it seemed like something had blocked Mayin's attack.

Gradually, the smoke and dust dissipated, and half of the body of the Supreme Emperor was revealed, leaving Mayin and others speechless.

It's not that easy to solve...

"You arrived so quickly, without giving me any time to rest. You're really capable of doing things! Especially you, my half who still harbors naive dreams of becoming emperor. You've even brought the Night Raid guys who once destroyed the empire to destroy me. I thought you were my half after all, so why would you associate with a traitor? Now it seems I overestimated you!"

The sarcastic words sounded particularly harsh to the little emperor, but he did not take them to heart.

"The traitors you speak of are those who cannot be controlled by your absolute imperial power! In that case, the ministers you speak of are truly cheap! You say I'm a fool who still clings to the naive dream of becoming emperor, but what about you? An idiot bound by the past, unable to move towards a brand new future?"

When it comes to arguing with people, the little emperor thinks he is no worse than anyone.

"Tsk!" The little emperor clicked his tongue in surprise, his face full of disgust.

But soon, the other party's face changed, and then he showed a meaningful expression and looked at the little emperor.

"Let's not talk about Night Raid for now. Let me talk about you. You managed to escape from my clutches, but now you've teamed up with the Masters of Chaldea and Night Raid to deal with me? What abilities do you have? What trump cards do you have? Could it be that you're my half?"

"Or do you want to rely on your weak body and your already crumbling spiritual foundation?"

"So I say you're a fool obsessed with the naive dream of becoming emperor! You're so obsessed with using your dream body that you should understand my true form by now! You actually dared to try to fight me with this dream body! You're simply foolish!"

The moment the little emperor uttered these words, everyone except Koizumi and Medusa looked at him in shock.

Obsessed with dreams and using his dream body? In other words, the current emperor isn't even a Servant...

So what about his Servant's true form? Why did it become like this?

Facing the gaze of the crowd, the little emperor lowered his head and remained silent.

Chapter 884 Little Emperor: The eternal empire is nothing but a dream!

I don’t know how much time had passed, but I was completely defeated by my own half in the imperial capital, and I didn’t even have the strength to fight back.

The opponent's power is really weird. Regardless of the fact that so many servants did not take action, the power displayed by half of his body is enough to shock people. With such strength, how could he be his opponent?

Lying on the beach, feeling the sea breeze, the little emperor's first career as a servant fell into decadence.

This was indeed his first normal career as a servant, and the previous incidents did not count.

The little emperor looked cheerful after being summoned, wanting to experience the feeling of signing a contract with his master.

But unfortunately, there is no Master in this world, and I am just a lone Servant, a Servant summoned by the world.

He fights with his spiritual veins as a source of magic power, but even with his spiritual veins, he cannot support himself in releasing his Noble Phantasms multiple times.

The magic power required for the Supreme Imperial Phantasm is still very huge. Under normal circumstances, it is only necessary to use it once or twice.

"What a horrible defeat! How could my other self be so exaggerated? Moreover, Lady Najeshitan and the others actually obeyed my other self. Could they be using some strange tricks...like what I did in my dream?"

A feeling of powerlessness came over the little emperor, and he didn't know how to deal with this situation.

He had finally escaped, but the method he used could only be used once, and he paid a fatal price.

His body began to become transparent, and a strong feeling of fatigue surged into his heart. The little emperor really couldn't help but want to rest.

Even if it is not released as a Noble Phantasm, the cost of using this ability is still unaffordable for the current little emperor, unless there is a Master who can use the Command Spells in his hand to forcibly offset such a cost.

Of course, it is impossible to offset it, because once this effect is used, it will be fatal to oneself.

The little emperor has basically given up. Yes, his mind is still that of a child, and he only has the potential to be a wise ruler, but now there is no one to guide him, so it is normal for him to give up easily.

However, at this moment, a voice that the little emperor did not expect appeared here.

"I never thought I'd get to meet you again. Although I'm really upset with you, it seems like you're in trouble!"

He was very familiar with that voice, gentle and generous. It belonged to someone to whom the little emperor had felt a little indebted in the past.

The other person had blue hair and blue eyes, and wore a nightcap shaped like a Santa hat. In her right hand, she held a pink sphere, and in her left, she held a large book with a blue cover and a letter D printed on it. She wore a black and white dress with a black and white spherical pattern, and behind her was a tail like a cow's tail...
