Me and Me, Oh Ba-re / I'm Just Gonna Drop a Starfall

Although it was only the second time Lord El-Melloi II had met Fujimaru Kyoya and he didn't know much about him, Fujimaru Kyoya still left a deep impression on him.

According to information from Lord Animsphere, Fujimaru Kyoya played a decisive role in the final battle. He had the opportunity to obtain the Holy Grail, but he gave it to his friend.

That's the Holy Grail built on the foundation of the Third Magic; it's an omnipotent anal-bursting machine.

For an ordinary Magecraft, such an opportunity would be enough to cause fathers and sons to kill each other, or brothers to turn against each other. The fact that the magician would go to such lengths for a friend speaks volumes about his character.

At the same time, given the strength that Fujimaru Kyoya had displayed, he was fully capable of taking the Rhongomyniad from Grea's hand just now and further enhancing his power, but he only touched it and didn't make any further moves.

These two points were the catalyst for Lord El-Melloi II's trust in his opponent, but also a gamble.

"Although this guy is annoying, he never goes back on his word."

Arcueid recalled the Holy Communion in the Millennium Castle and the subsequent reforms of the Church. Although the Dark Six Royal Authorities instilled fear in the Church and the Millennium Castle, they were not indiscriminate killers.

"Senior, after all, this person just saved us."

Tohno Shiki also pleaded on his behalf, which softened Ciel's emotions. Indeed, in this world, pillow talk is the most effective.

"I understand. Anyway, things have already gotten big enough out of hand. The Church will be here soon, so let's continue to support them until they arrive."

Ciel simply doesn't trust Fujimaru Kyoya; that doesn't mean she's a cold-blooded person. In particular, she shows more humanity in her interactions with Tohno Shiki.

"Thanks, and could you lend me a Black Keys?"

Ciel did not refuse Fujimaru Kyoya's request.

The use of the Black Keys by the Executor is merely an imitation of the original Executor, the Dark Six Royal Authorities; the Black Keys and Baptismal Chant are legacies left by the Dark Six Royal Authorities.

After several generations of improvements by the Holy Church, mass production of the Black Keys was already complete, so it wouldn't matter if Fujimaru Kyoya Black Keys given one.

Thank you.

Fujimaru Kyoya walked confidently into the depths of the Louvre's underground.

[You've ventured into the deepest part of the Louvre, and with the help of the "Ghost Brain," you've sensed the traps the Priory of Sion laid.]

[You must dismantle the mechanisms one by one, while simultaneously controlling the Black Mud to repel the Dead Apostle.]

[You're not worried about those people's lives, because you know a powerful ally is on their way; they definitely sensed it when you touched the Rhongomyniad.]

"Can you sense me, Rongomyniad?"

Fujimaru Kyoya asked into the empty space, convinced that even though they were separated by vast distances, the touch they had just shared must have made the other person feel him.

"Lloyd?"

A lone traveler on the grassland looked back towards Paris. Long ago, she had entrusted the Rhongomyniad to Morgan to protect King Arthur's tomb-guarding clan.

King Arthur's soul yearned for the Holy Grail, so much so that he entrusted his body to Rongomyniad safekeeping, and could not be awakened no matter what.

This led Morgan to create a vessel for King Arthur, waiting for the right time to revive King Arthur soul.

But now...

"Is it an illusion?"

Rongomyniad thought she'd been missing that person for too long and had developed a mistaken feeling; she wanted to continue her journey... what a load of rubbish.

The hurricane howled across the grasslands, Rongomyniad flew towards Paris.

We absolutely have to catch up.

Chapter 240 Me and My Oppa

[You notice that these mechanisms use very little Magecraft; they rely more on modern technology. While not particularly powerful, they can still put some arrogant Magecraft in a difficult situation.]

Fujimaru Kyoya's original intention in establishing the Priory of Sion was to support the power of science. He believed that after religion completed its historical mission, science would take over the heavy responsibility and become the leader in human development.

This predetermined the competitive relationship between the two sides, and the mutual aversion between science and mystery would become an unchangeable fact.

Whether in the early days when mystery was still the mainstream, or now that science has become a towering tree, scientists are still no match for Magecraft in terms of individual combat power. However, this does not stop them from mocking Magecraft with their quirky and sarcastic remarks, using the laws of physics to ridicule these guys who lack common sense.

"We've finally arrived."

Fujimaru Kyoya broke through the last illusion and looked at the Stone Gate in front of him. The Stone Gate had no gaps except in the middle, and it seemed that there was no way to open it except by brute force.

"Since you have kept my word of patience, I will protect you from the trials that come upon all the earth."

"I am coming soon; hold fast to what you have, lest someone take your crown away."

"After that I looked and saw a door open in heaven. And I heard for the first time what sounded like a trumpet, saying to me, 'Come up here, and I will show you what will happen next.'"

The verses from the Book of Revelation were recited by Fujimaru Kyoya. He was not originally capable of Baptismal Chant; the reason he was able to create that special fighting method was simply by utilizing the power of the Stigmata.

Flagg's Baptismal Chant are different from those of the Church; the difference is fundamental.

Even though Fujimaru Kyoya had neither Stigmata nor any formal training at the Church, reciting scriptures would have no effect. However, as he recited, the seemingly unbreakable Stone Gate began to tremble, and even the crack widened considerably.

At that very moment, Fujimaru Kyoya inserted the Black Keys into the gap. With this Black Keys as a guide, the text of the Book of Revelation could be transmitted into it more quickly.

"I saw a throne set in heaven, and an emperor sitting on it."

"Look at the one who sits there, like jade and Ruby. And a rainbow surrounds the throne, like an emerald."

"Around the throne were twenty-four seats, upon which sat twenty-four elders, dressed in white robes and wearing golden crowns."

The door trembled, and within that door, which Fujimaru Kyoya could not open with his strength, a power that had been dormant for hundreds of years began to awaken.

That imposing sense of oppression, even just a wisp of it, was enough to make the Dead Apostle tremble with fear and put immense pressure on the others.

"The Dark Six Royal Authorities?"

Lord El-Melloi II sensed it; it was a power that no human should possess. He recognized that trembling feeling—it was the trembling he had felt during the Holy Grail War.

The progenitor of Servant Ancestor of Dead Apostles was indeed far stronger than ordinary people, even comparable to Servant, but there are also differences between Servant.

King Arthur, King of Heroes, King of Conquerors...

These kings, placed in the annals of history, were the protagonists of their respective eras. The power displayed by such strongmen was unmatched even by the Ancestor of Dead Apostles, and Lord El-Melloi II was now sensing it.

The Dark Six Royal Authorities are definitely not inferior to them.

No... it's more than just not inferior to them.

The unknown "seal" loosened, and an increasingly powerful pressure swept in. The fierce battle abruptly stopped, and even ordinary citizens who were kept out by the police could feel it.

The feeling of being looked down upon by an aura from above.

"What exactly is coming?"

Have no idea.

No one knew who asked the question, nor how to answer it. At that moment, everyone had only one thought in mind:...

They've arrived.

"I saw a white horse, and the rider of it had a bow and a crown. So he went out and won and wanted to win again."

"I saw a red horse come out, and he was given Authority over it to take peace from the earth and to make people kill one another. He was also given a large sword."

"I saw a black horse, and the rider on it held scales in his hands. A penny could buy a liter of wheat, and a penny could buy three liters of barley. Oil and wine must not be wasted."

"I saw a grey horse, and the rider on it was named Death, and Hades followed him. They were given Authority over the sword, over famine, over plague, and over wild beasts to kill a quarter of the earth."

The phantoms of Four Horsemen appeared behind Fujimaru Kyoya, their power resonating with those inside the gate. This time... the earth trembled.

"I saw beneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain, who were the word of God and the witnesses of God."

"Then I saw a great earthquake, and the sun turned black like a rag doll, and the full moon turned red like blood."

"I saw the Seven Angels standing before God, and they were given seven trumpets."

Seven Angels sounded their trumpets, the sound both holy and destructive, and finally... the Stone Gate shattered.

"Boom!"

A roar from underground echoed through the sky, and a pale Cross was embedded in the ruins of the Louvre. High above, at the center of the Cross, two figures stood out like black dots.

"You've come."

"I am coming."

Two people with similar faces looked at each other, as if they were looking in a mirror, and almost at the same moment uttered the same sentence, and at the same time, both of them "collapsed".

Even when Fujimaru Kyoya still Flagg, he considered the problem of time paradox. In order to prevent such a thing from happening, and to protect Chris, he isolated himself in a secret room that was extremely difficult to open.

By using the principles of quantum mechanics to cut off all sources of observation, he was able to successfully "die" using the Royal Authority of "Peaceful Sleep."

For years, Flagg has been regarded as "dead" like Schrödinger's cat, which is why Fujimaru Kyoya's consciousness was able to return to the main body.

Now that the two have met, two people with identical inner selves have finally broken down. The final result is obviously that the strong devour the weak, which is the natural order of things.

Fujimaru Kyoya will cease to exist and live on as Flagg.

Is that really the case?

[Your conceptual breakdown triggers a time paradox; the two identical you will be merged, and the stronger consciousness will dominate the body.]

[Because of your innate ability to perceive "Non-form," no matter how many lives you experience, your perception of "me" will not change. Regardless of the consequences of this breakdown, "I" will still be in control of your body.]

[You sensed the collapse was over, and you reappeared on the earth.]

As the Cross faded into the sky, Fujimaru Kyoya let out a long breath.

"I've finally recovered."

Even Fujimaru Kyoya and Flagg are superimposed, "I" am still "I".

Chapter 241 I Just Directly Met the Great Desolate Starfall

Fujimaru Kyoya stood high in the sky, the power belonging to the Dark Six Royal Authorities filling his body, but this power was not worth clinging to.

Sound of a kiss

With Fujimaru Kyoya arrived at the Stone Gate beneath the Louvre, where a woman lay inside an exquisite Crystal Coffin, seemingly asleep.

"Goo goo~ Let's go to the dock and get some fries."

"Still thinking about your damn fries?"

Fujimaru Kyoya grabbed the White Dove that was heading to the dock to get some fries. Chris hadn't recovered yet, so how could he let this guy get away?

"What else would I do if I weren't thinking about the fries? Her soul wanders through history; if you give her the power that originally belonged to her, she can be resurrected."

Although the White Dove may seem unreliable, its essence is merely the embodiment of the Holy Spirit, that is, the Miracle power held by God. Its so-called thoughts and emotions are simply functions born to facilitate communication with people.

However, Fujimaru Kyoya clearly did not intend to let the other party go so easily. He opened the coffin with the White Dove. The body inside had not decayed even after two thousand years. Fujimaru Kyoya placed his right hand on the other party's hand.

The transfer of Stigmata has begun, and Royal Authority is in transition.

[You manually triggered the "One Hundred Years of Solitude" ending, and are randomly selecting an individual for you... Selection failed; the simulated individual does not exist in the database.]

[You have inherited the power of "Flagg," and your own understanding of the universe, under the talent of "Non-form," is without any confusion.]

[You are transferring your own Stigmata.]

Stigmata can be transferred; Chris has done this before. However, such divine gifts cannot be given to others at will; it requires the witness of God.

I don't know if God died or what, but now only a White Dove, who is supposed to be the Holy Spirit and only wants to eat fries all day, is in charge.

The First Magic was completely dismantled and in disarray; it seems that even if it didn't fail, it's not far from failing.

Since God isn't here, we can use the White Dove as a substitute. As long as the White Dove agrees, the transfer of the Stigmata can be achieved.

"Be my witness, God's power is entrusted to future generations; you are crowned with six crowns, you are God's shadow, and you act on God's behalf."

The Stigmata on Fujimaru Kyoya's hand emitted a light that almost turned night into day.

Miracle.

The crowd and police on the perimeter quieted down; the anger from the attack on the Louvre had subsided, replaced by reverence for God.

After all, France is a devout Catholic nation, and it has managed to maintain a proper balance on matters of faith.

"I admit it."

Although the White Dove was not very happy, it still accepted the transfer of the Stigmata, wondering when it would end quickly, as it was waiting for its first French fry in the morning.

The power of the Stigmata will serve as a beacon, guiding Chris's soul back to its rightful place. At the same time, the power gained during the "Flagg" era based on the Six Royal Authorities will also disappear.

This is why Fujimaru Kyoya said, "This era doesn't need the Dark Six Royal Authorities"—they don't need them, and they no longer exist.
