I really didn't want to burn it.

“So…?”

"The Two Rites," Ying Zheng said, turning back. "If things truly become impossible, you must sever the connection between each singularity and the source here!"

"This……"

Ryougi Shiki's eyes widened; she hadn't expected Ying Zheng to say that.

Once the source of the singularity and the Type-Moon spacetime is severed, it means that we are completely separated from the Type-Moon, and the Human Incineration Method will naturally have no effect on these spacetimes.

however……

What will become of this world?

Ryougi Shiki asked in a low voice.

Ying Zheng said with a hint of apology, "The world will remain the same, but human reason..."

It's cruel, but rather than having the seven singularities dragged down with the Type-Moon universe, it's better to save them. There's no need to let hundreds of millions of people from the singularities perish with a single world.

Just as Ying Zheng said before, although the value of life is not judged by the number of people, in such a situation, the number of people would definitely be the best measure.

Not to mention that Ying Zheng was the emperor of Qin and had to be responsible for his people.

"I'm sorry, this is my choice."

A hint of apology flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes, and then he spoke again.

"Once the separation is over, you must immediately return to the Qin Dynasty..."

"No need." Ryougi Shiki shook her head slightly. "I will stay here until the very end."

Despite her decisiveness in leaving with Li Ang, Ryougi Shiki simply couldn't bear to watch her homeland be destroyed while she remained unscathed.

"I understand."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, then said, "Then this battle can only be won, not lost!!"

"Yes!!"

Ryougi Shiki nodded vigorously.

"Leave the cover to me!"

Black Jeanne, who was following behind the two, revealed a sinister smile.

"These unkillable things are my cup of tea! I'd try every method imaginable!!"

"Is that so? Then I hope you'll keep your word."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly.

"Look, they've come to welcome us."

Dozens of demonic pillars sprouted from the ground like bamboo shoots, extending their tentacles and coiling around like octopuses.

"Alter Jeanne, let us handle the first wave of attacks!!"

Pepe threw out two talismans, which immediately triggered the attack from the front.

Then, Debit's black spirit burst out of the smoke and cleaved a demon pillar in two.

"You guys go ahead first, we'll catch up in a bit."

Peipei laughed heartily and gave the three of them a thumbs up.

"But……"

“We are Masters who were chosen from among countless elites to save humanity. It would be very rude to be looked down upon! This is something that Debit and I can handle in just a few minutes.”

Alter Jeanne and Ryougi Shiki still seemed somewhat hesitant, as leaving like this might be seen as abandoning their allies.

"Miss Ryougi Shiki, don't you still have someone you care about? Go now! Your man and I are incompatible; we might even start fighting if we meet~"

Seeing that Ryougi Shiki was still hesitating, Pepe chose to mock her, and the man she was referring to was clearly Li Ang.

"I understand. Please be careful too."

Finally, Ryougi Shiki and Jeanne Alter nodded to Pepe, and then continued on their way.

"Oh dear, oh dear. You're obviously a girl who doesn't play games. What you just said was a classic flag. Now we're in danger. I'm a little scared, Debit."

Pepe smiled as Ryougi Shiki walked away with her back to her, showing no sign of fear on her face.

"Hmph, if you're scared, you might as well surrender," Debit said disdainfully.

"That won't do, they've already made an agreement with them."

Pepe said very kindly, as a talisman appeared in his hand.

"Now, it's time for the big clean-up."

Pepe sneered as she looked at the tentacles that blotted out the sky.

The talismans transformed into countless white-glowing arrows in the sky, then bombarded the surrounding demons...

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

"attack!"

The woman, dressed in gorgeous clothes, kept shooting at the tentacles around her with her wand, knocking them off one by one when they got close.

"Migu!! There are too many!"

The pink-haired fox-eared shrine maiden had just frozen a huge tentacle into an ice block with her magic when, as she looked up to catch her breath, she found herself surrounded by even more tentacles.

"This is so annoying! Migu!"

Just as Tamamo-no-Mae was distracted, the tentacles that she had frozen earlier broke through the ice, and the eyes on the tentacles looked at Tamamo-no-Mae almost simultaneously.

"Migu!!"

Tamamo-no-Mae, entangled by the other tentacles, could only watch as immense magical power gathered in the eyes of the tentacles.

"Uomo Univsale!! (The Almighty!!)"

A light, melodious voice rang out.

A white halo spread out toward the tentacles that were about to fire, like divine punishment bestowed upon these things that only brought shame upon people, as if by divine light.

Tracing the source of the attack, Tamamo-no-Mae discovered that the brown-haired woman from Chaldea was pointing her staff at the attack, with a blue magic circle slowly rotating beneath her feet.

"Migu, Chaldea."

Tamamo-no-Mae looked surprised.

"At least we're allies now, aren't we?"

Leonardo da Vinci smiled slightly, then raised his staff once more.

"Since that's the case, then I should reciprocate!" Tamamo-no-Mae winked at Leonardo da Vinci playfully. "Let me become your wife! The Fox's Marriage!"

As Tamamo-no-Mae danced, a blue light bathed Leonardo da Vinci, filling her with incredible power.

"What is this?!" Leonardo da Vinci exclaimed. "A jumble of lights, neither beautiful nor artistic, utterly vulgar!"

Tamamo-no-Mae, hands on her hips, retorted defiantly, "What did you say! This was a blessing from his wife!"

"What kind of wife are you?!"

"coming!"

Rika's exclamation interrupted the two arguing.

"no problem!"

A massive ball of energy converged at the tip of the giant staff.

"Uomo Univsale!! (The Almighty!!)"

Several white beams of light shot out, instantly destroying all the tentacles that were attacking from the battlefield.

"Well, well, it's not bad."

Leonardo da Vinci said, patting his staff.

"Hehe~ Of course, she's a virtuous wife."

Tamamo-no-Mae chuckled.

Da Vinci was speechless: "This has absolutely nothing to do with being a virtuous wife."

"Well done, Chaldea Servant."

Ophelia helped Kirshtalia walk over.

Leonardo da Vinci's eyes widened in astonishment: "He was cut in two and he's still alive?!"

Although Kirshtalia was in terrible condition, her face ashen, she was undoubtedly still alive, and her lower body had been glued back on.

"The Temple of Time is a special place. Death here is different from that in the real world. That may be why I survived."

Kirshtalia answered in a very weak voice.

"That's amazing. So, does that mean Goetia was still alive just now?"

"Who knows."

Kirshtalia shrugged weakly, then looked at Ritsuka to the side.

"Well……"

Ritsuka was startled by Kirshtalia's gaze and hid behind Da Vinci, her eyes darting away.

"Fujimaru Ritsuka, you did very well."

Kirshtalia sighed softly and said, "I never imagined that such an ordinary magician could reach this level. Indeed, even a nobody..."

Ritsuka stared blankly at Kirshtalia, her bewildered eyes revealing her inner confusion.

“Mr. Kirshtalia…”

“Sir? That’s quite a strange title,” Kirshtalia replied. “Like Leon said, I’m nothing but a loser.”

"..."

Ritsuka was now at a loss for how to respond to Kirshtalia.

Rationally speaking, Ritsuka agrees with Li Ang's statement; however, the kind-hearted Ritsuka cannot criticize someone who is genuinely concerned for all humanity, even if the other person's views are greatly flawed.

Just as both sides remained silent, a demonic pillar several times larger than an ordinary demonic pillar burst forth from the ground.

"Damn Chaldea, I, Barbatos, have come for revenge!!!! Die, all of you!!"

"Be careful, this thing has a very strong magical reaction, it's not an ordinary Demon God Pillar!" Kirshtalia warned.

Barbatos's magical sphere, several meters in diameter, seemed to confirm his words.

"Go to hell!"

Barbatos fired a magic cannon at the group.

"It's okay! We absolutely won't lose now! Master!"

Da Vinci gave Ritsuka a reassuring smile.

"Of course!"

Ritsuka nodded vigorously in excitement, and then reached out to activate the magic.

"strengthen!!"

Ophelia also used enhancement magic on Tamamo-no-Mae.

"How could I possibly lose to a candidate in front of Kirshtalia! Cast!!"

"Water, sky, sunlight, awe-inspiring, eight-field town stone!!"

"Uomo Univsale!! (The Almighty!!)"

A white beam of light, crackling with purple lightning, pierced through Barbatos's beam and slammed into it.

boom----!

The earth-shattering roar echoed throughout the entire Temple of Time, and the entire space trembled from the impact.

"Hehe~~~ You really caused quite a stir!"

Sensing the familiar magical fluctuations, Ying Zheng smiled as he looked in the direction of the magical burst, then casually kicked away a tentacle beside him as if it were trash.
