Chapter 545 33: Magic?

"Leave, leave this world?"Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned for a moment. Did it mean leaving this singularity?

But... where else could they go? This was already the last singularity, and if they couldn't stop the Tiamat God here, the foundation of humanity would completely collapse, and human history would be utterly consumed. They would have nowhere else to go.

They could only be buried with the history of the old world, whether it was this era of 2600 BC or the human world of 2015 where they lived...

Though they used Spiritual Particle Transfer technology to go to different singularities, those distorted eras separated from the normal time axis were essentially all the same world line, just different stages of historical progress.

"I didn't mean another era, I meant another world... a world completely different from this one," Gu Mo explained seriously.

"Another world... do you mean a parallel world?"

From Chaldea's communication came Dr. Roman's slightly astonished voice—

"This, this is no longer the domain of Magic, are you a Magician? But as a user of the Second Magic, it couldn't possibly be you..."

There was an uproar, just like many people on this side were also a bit surprised. No one expected that this Immortal would have such means, even the Goddesses Ishtar and Quetzalcoatl were glancing at Gu Mo with curious eyes.

"You could probably understand it that way, but I have my methods, and now is not the time to discuss this, just make your decision..."

Gu Mo blinked, not explaining in detail. It was up to these people to decide for themselves if they wanted to leave; he couldn't just force them if they were unwilling.

"..."

"..."

The previously lively atmosphere suddenly fell into a brief silence.

Everyone immediately came back to their senses. Although this Immortal seemed to have reached the domain of "Magic," which was truly shocking, the most important task now was to face the catastrophic disaster brought by the Tiamat God, for this world was ultimately doomed.

"I understand the situation here... the specifics of the decision are left to you, Rikou," Dr. Roman sighed but then spoke solemnly, indicating that the decision-making power was handed to humanity's last Master to decide.

Moreover, the communication on that side was very silent.

While Dr. Roman was speaking, no other Chaldea staff spoke, seemingly showing no objections.

"This... this..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka felt a rush of confusion, a heavy sense of responsibility pressing down on her.

If this were truly possible, at least everyone could survive, but... but... were they really just going to surrender everything? Even if they reached the most desperate point, they wouldn't be able to save their own lives, let alone reclaim their lost future.

"You don't have to decide immediately; we still have time for you to consider..."

Gu Mo spoke softly, indicating that the situation, although very critical, wasn't yet at a point where if they did not make an immediate decision, they would lose the opportunity to choose. Otherwise, this final battle would be unnecessary, indicating that the Tiamat God hadn't fully let loose.

This being, whose essence was the Primordial Soup, the Sea of Life, was indeed a terrifying ancient deity as the Creation Womb. The Magic Power contained in its mental body alone exceeded the combined total of seven Holy Grails, and when Magic Power fluctuations occurred, Chaldea could detect energy levels equivalent to those of a hydrogen bomb.

At that time, just by releasing Magic Power, she could easily vaporize the Persian Gulf, along with Uruk.

And now, it was no longer the mental body but a complete Superstructure... who could imagine what kind of power the Mother of Creation possessed? And this wasn't even its limit; her Spirit Base could continue to return, continue to expand, and in the original storyline, it returned directly to the Jurassic era.

As the Mother Goddess who created all life on Earth, the scale of her Spirit Base certainly didn't stop at the Jurassic. If given more time, who knows how many more times she could manifest her Spirit Base.

In other words, this ancient deity was far from being at her peak state.

It's no exaggeration to say that if this Mother of Creation consciously launched targeted attacks, humanity wouldn't stand a chance... Even if victory was possible in the original storyline, it was only achievable by meeting a series of conditions that made the Tiamat God manifest a health bar because the deity rarely acted personally.

Perhaps...

Even now, with its senses lost, emerging from the sea, the Tiamat God, whose root was "mother," was still, without awareness, attempting to seal itself.

"Mm, I understand..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded worriedly, forcing a somewhat stiff smile.

"Wow, that rift has been filled up, and the black mud is going to surge up again... Do something quickly!" At this moment, Ishtar exclaimed loudly, always paying attention to her mother's actions on the other side. Despite Tiamat stopping in front of the huge chasm, it didn't mean she had truly ceased her operations.

Behind this Mother of Origin, the entire ocean's water level continued to rise. The water, stained black, looked more like a tide of black mud than seawater, surging wave after wave as the black mud ceaselessly flowed into the massive rift.

It was like torrents of pitch-black waterfalls, massive quantities of black mud pouring down.

Just moments ago, the ground was plowed open by the Prison Dragon Break, and now, in less than a quarter of an hour, the entire great rift was unexpectedly filled by the black ocean...

Thus, the Tide of Chaos once again crossed the coastline, surging and spreading towards them, while the halted Tiamat began to move again. This massive woman, like a moving mountain range, maintained a blank expression on her exquisite face, only opening her mouth to continue releasing an "Aaaaaa————" sound.

The sound seemed monotonous, yet it also resembled a grand song filled with compassion and indifference. It was as if humans could not comprehend her language and could only hear a single monotonous syllable.

However, Gu Mo also couldn't discern any special meaning in it. Despite having a system with a translation function akin to mastering all languages, he reasonably suspected that it truly was a meaningless cry, as Tiamat's rational existence couldn't be confirmed now.

She emerged from the sea because she lost her rationality.

"As long as we evaporate the black mud, can we block her advance?" Quetzalcoatl wondered, nodding thoughtfully and becoming eager to try. "Let's test it with my 'Sun Calendar Stone,' but I need to get close to her, and I also need Ritsuka to provide me with Magic Power."

Her Treasure doesn't have such a ridiculous attack range and is quite exhausting to use.

Moreover, if the Servant and the Master are too far apart, the efficiency of providing Magic Power would naturally drop significantly. Therefore, she must approach Tiamat's feet to unleash her Treasure, and must bring her contracted Master Fujimaru Ritsuka along.

"No need to be so troublesome, let me handle it..." Gu Mo stated.

"No, no, I also have the dignity of a Goddess. Since Ishtar just broke that head entity, I must do something as well." Quetzalcoatl shook her head repeatedly. "Besides, your Treasure must also exhaust a huge amount, and the Master isn't by your side. If you act continuously, the Magic Power supply won't keep up..."

The consumption of treasure is large...

Gu Mo's expression remained unchanged, only glancing at the quiet demon sword in his hand. If the wielder isn't capable, then the sword, using its own power to unleash a Demon Sword Secret Technique, indeed requires a massive consumption and needs to rest for a while to recover.

However, he had no such concerns at all. After all, he already possessed an Immortal Body now, and according to the Western Magic system's viewpoint, every strand of his hair was a conversion circuit, with terrifying Qi Body flowing within, continuously absorbing the external Magic Power to replenish.

Though also limited by output power, it's no problem to use Prison Dragon Break like a normal attack, without the various restrictions of those Servants.

Such matters are not easily revealed, and since his previous persona was a pseudo-Servant, to avoid exposing himself and revealing he's not a Servant by signing a contract with Fujimaru Ritsuka, he simply claimed the Witch was his Master. Without the Witch present, according to their first impression and experience, they naturally worried about his Magic Power supply.

Besides, the fact he "remodeled his Immortal Body" was only known to Gilgamesh and hasn't been revealed yet. He concealed it intentionally, so the others didn't know—

Mainly because Akai Hinako was also here, should she realize any suspicion that his Immortal Body derived from her body, it would be an irreparable explanation...

—although he wasn't innocent from the start.

"Is it that legendary Cloudy Fang? It's said that the original form was indeed Heavenly Cloud, yet historically, Senior Gu Mo did not acknowledge it, only saying it was Cloudy Fang, a Demon Blade, perhaps due to losing the qualification of a Holy Sword and being categorized as a Demon Sword due to certain reasons..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka curiously examined the sword in his hand, pondering history he learned, legends he heard, and simple magic knowledge he grasped.

Mash nodded earnestly, stating her own opinions and viewpoints: "So does this mean the one in Atsuta Shrine is fake? However, according to historical records, this sword was later given to Toyotomi Hideyoshi, right? It's because he wielded this Sword of Royal Authority that he was a true ruler of the world..."

"... emmmmm, I have no idea what you are talking about."

Gu Mo pulled at the corners of his mouth, continued to say honestly what they didn't believe across. Simultaneously, his thoughts raced, was he glimpsing a fragment of the future?

"Alright, Ritsuka, let's prepare to go..."

Quetzalcoatl stated, and under the cover of night, a gigantic winged dragon stretched its wings, measuring several dozen meters in span, and swiftly flew to her call, whipping up fierce gales nearby.

Her strategy was simple; using this Cretaceous Winged Dragon to carry the Master directly to the advancing Tiamat and there unleash her 'Sun Calendar Stone' Treasure.
