Earth Princess? No, it's Fujimaru Ritsuka!

"Oh dear, what's wrong with these people..."

"I don't know~ Oh ho, this must be what they call dying on the road... Usually, this is caused by hunger, so let me, Tamamo, prepare a delicious meal!"

A cute catgirl dressed in a maid outfit twitched her ears and spoke.

For some unknown reason, Tamamo-no-Mae's spirit, manifested as a catgirl chef, patted the face of the unconscious Mash.

"Hey, this doesn't look like a roadside death at all. It's obviously someone who was beaten up like this... And, this girl seems kind of familiar... Have I seen her somewhere before?"

A familiar figure, Elizabeth Bathory, the Little Dragon Girl, crouched down and gently poked Mash's shoulder with her fingernail.

Stheno.

"A fool who manifests as a divine spirit but is utterly useless in battle—" The eldest of the Gorgon sisters murmured, "Something extraordinary has appeared... I never imagined that monsters could be resurrected—"

"The world is going to end, woof~~ There's no use worrying about it now, let's just eat, woof!"

"That's what Tamamo-neko said, so carefree."

"Hey! This isn't the time for this kind of thing... Hmm... This girl... Let me think—Aaaaaah!"

Elizabeth exclaimed, "Isn't that Little Deer's sidekick?! That means... Little Deer is here too?"

"What are you yelling for? What's wrong with being a little more polite? Even my silly sister wouldn't suddenly start screaming."

Stheno gently touched Mashu's forehead as she spoke: "If it were them... well, I was thinking of doing some fun activities and then telling them the capital of [United Rome] as a reward... I didn't expect even the White Giant to appear. Even the Greek gods couldn't defeat this monster, so I can't be of much help."

She's just a beautiful goddess, or to put it bluntly, a pretty face; there's no way she could possibly surpass Sefalu.

"Hey, you guys...hello~~"

A sudden flash of white light appeared, and a blonde figure dressed in a white Chaldea uniform suddenly appeared and waved to them.

"Ouch! You scared me! Hey... Little Deer!"

Elizabeth was startled by the tail and jumped back like a frightened kitten. Just as she was about to bristle, she saw Fujimaru Ritsuka waving at her.

“Elizabeth, you’re here too…that’s wonderful.” Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Mash and, seeing that Mash seemed to have just fainted, breathed a sigh of relief and said.

"You are?"

"I am TamamoNine, the wild fox, Tamamo-neko, woof!"

—You're clearly a fox, but your name is cat, yet you use the suffix "dog." So what species are you anyway?!

"A wild, virtuous wife dog whose hobby is cooking, whose interest is cooking, and whose skill is cooking~"

"My favorite food is carrots, and my dream is to run a coffee shop!...Woof woof woof~~"

Tamamo-neko wagged its tail and spun around, introducing itself.

—Ah, good, good. A servant who's impossible to communicate with.

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the beautiful purple loli.

"I am the elegant goddess, the eldest of the three Gorgon sisters, a phenomenon born from the capture of a hero, Stheno. Well, as you can see... I'm more reliable than them, so hurry up and say what you need to say~~ It's urgent, and as a goddess, I can provide you with special assistance."

"Okay, then please... look after Mash for me."

“This lovely child? No problem.” Stheno nodded. “Any lovely child will find shelter with me.”

"Thank you very much."

Fujimaru Ritsuka turned to leave.

"Little deer! Are you going to fight that kind of monster? It's not something we can defeat... even for a little deer..."

Elizabeth was trembling with fear. That terrifying monster, the white giant that could completely destroy the civilization of the Zheng Kingdom planet, could not be defeated by a single half-human, half-true ancestor.

"I'm sorry, Elizabeth. I absolutely have to go."

"Ugh... I know. After all, you're the last Master of humanity, so you have to do your best, little deer."

"Yes, of course. Erhai Wuqi is six (three) two."

Fujimaru Ritsuka gave a thumbs up.

"Goodbye."

The girl's figure flashed by in a beam of light and vanished from the spot in an instant.

"Little deer—!"

Elizabeth and Fujimaru Ritsuka had a very good relationship, because Fujimaru Ritsuka had told her personally that Elizabeth's songs were very good.

It sounds good, I love listening to it, I want to sing it more.

"Don't lose... I may not be qualified to participate in this kind of mythical battle, but... I will sing my heart out for your victory!"

Elizabeth shouted loudly at Fujimaru Ritsuka's disappearing figure!

Sefarlu is a destructive weapon that destroys civilizations. Good civilizations, bad civilizations, all civilizations are meaningless to it.

However, even so...

Spartacus was completely unafraid!

His love will explode, transforming into a guiding light on humanity's path forward, directing the direction of human free will.

Then, a dazzling green flash appeared.

It pierced through the right-hand core of the [Wrathful] monster that Sefaru had absorbed.

At the same time, the towering tree transformed into a rushing Roman domain, forcing Sephalus's massive body to retreat repeatedly!

Nero, witnessing this scene...

She bit her lower lip tightly with her pearly teeth.

The violence and irritability in her heart vanished without a trace... She picked up the sword of the God of War, which was stained with red, blue and green, and only then did she feel the power of the God of War Mars.

In a daze...

She passed through the sword.

I saw a beautiful warrior.

The female warriors rode their warhorses across the sun-drenched grasslands, their wedding-dress-like headdresses fluttering in the wind, a truly beautiful sight.

"Attila, you are definitely not just a monster that only destroys..."

"Mars's Noble Phantasm is very unsuitable for me... well, if I wanted to use it—"

The power of war is not in my favor.

What I believe is—

【like】!

【romantic】,

【Rome】!

To manifest the body of a deity in a human body.

This is something that has never been heard of before.

However... since we are facing an enemy of the world, it is something we have no choice but to accept.

The Sword of the War God can act as a catalyst to connect her with higher dimensions, to reach the realm of gods that is different from the real world.

Even so, the most crucial content is still missing.

That is, if humans are to connect with the power of the gods who possess the Star Touch... in this realm, what is needed is a channel, an authority... or perhaps—Star Support.

This cheat is all about compatibility... it requires a heart that wants to summon miracles, and miracles themselves.

but--

Not even close.

What's missing?

So...where exactly is the difference?

The gods did not respond to Nero, nor to Rome. Had the gods abandoned humanity... or perhaps—

"Ugh."

"Indeed, your posture is too ugly, my heart is too twisted, and my love is not recognized... Even the gods are disappointed in me?"

"But—Lord Divine Ancestor..."

"How can I possibly defeat this giant—?"

That being the case.

Let's give it our all then.

Nero will not give up, she will not despair... Even if there are difficulties and obstacles ahead, she will burn like a raging fire!

The world will not perish.

Human reason will never end.

No matter what kind of experience one has

As long as you don't give up in the end...

"It's alright, Nero."

A gentle hand grasped Nero's right hand.

I gripped it tightly, as if I could feel the intense heat emanating from it.

"You are...!"

Nero's eyes widened.

The first time I saw it, the magnificent emperor's eyes were glistening with rose tears.

I thought you had already...

"Ah, it's alright...it's all over now, Nero."

Fujimaru Ritsuka hugged the passionate girl, patted her back, and she chuckled softly, then patted Nero's little head.

"Um...don't touch my head, I'm not a child anymore!"

Nero revealed his clothes and gritted his teeth, his expression fierce.

"That was the white giant who destroyed many pantheons on Earth more than ten thousand years ago... The reason you called upon the gods but received no response—is probably because even the Olympian gods did not believe they could defeat the white giant, right?"

"Hmm...Is that so?"

Nero frowned.

"Is it because of fear, or perhaps concerns...? Well... never mind, I can't let that stop me!"

"My passion and talent have been burned out, but even so—I will fight to the end."

"Because this is Rome [the World]!"

Nero spoke these words—fiery flames erupting from her entire body—pointing her sword to the sky: "O Olympian gods in the highest heavens, I demand that you grant me divine power..."

"I will wash away the shame of the past, and I will protect the world of Rome!"

The Command Seals on the back of Fujimaru Ritsuka's hand shone with intense light.

"Well... it doesn't really matter if you don't lend it to me."

"Since it's the power of planetary catalysts anyway... right now, right here, let's just take it!"

"Nero Claudius, now that you have become a god, would you be willing to become my servant?"

———Regarding this——

Nero nodded emphatically!

"I acknowledge that, whether in life or in death... I stand here, fighting alongside Ritsuka—I am your servant, someone who trusts and loves you!"

"Alright! Thus... the contract is established."

Ding--!

The crimson light of the Command Seals shone brightly.

The contract is hereby established.
