I, Ritsuka, Siscon Grand Hero

With incredible speed, the little girl leaped up and threw a punch at Ritsuka, pushing Miyu back a step and blocking with her left hand, which was covered in Reinforcement Magic.

Bang—!!

"Sister!?"

The ground shattered, and the impact spread out, forming a spiderweb-like pattern of cracks in a fan shape.

The building beside the street instantly fell apart. Ritsuka's slender body slammed into it, and the astonishing force acted upon her, crushing the entire convenience store and disappearing into a pile of rubble.

Miyu sat on the ground, staring blankly in the direction Ritsuka had vanished. Then, a hand was placed on her head.

"Ugh—!!"

"Sakutsuki Miyu, I have been searching for you, for the miracles remaining in this world. You are mine now."

The magic released from her palm knocked Miyu unconscious. Erika then stepped forward and supported the unconscious Miyu.

Immediately, Erika's face bloomed into a beautiful smile.

"With a big sister who could fix everything five years ago here, I don't have to be afraid even if another accident happens this time."

Hearing this, Julian lowered his head. "This time, it will definitely succeed. This vessel is sufficient."

Everything was over. Julian retracted his hand and glanced indifferently at the ruined convenience store. As expected, Ritsuka should have died inside, if she were an ordinary person...

Suddenly, Julian's eyes widened, and he looked slightly taken aback—

"Projection Magic. To develop this kind of Magecraft to the level of projecting Noble Phantasms."

"Emiya Ritsuka, just who are you?"

Black and white twin blades severed the rubble. Two blades of anti-magic, like blooming wings, were held in Ritsuka's hands. Her left arm hung limply at her side.

A surge of power filled her severed arm, attempting to repair it.

Immortality, until its transfer to Prometheus: Obtained from her teacher, Chiron, when capturing the Erymanthian Boar in her lifetime. That was the 'Immortality' possessed by the great ancient Greek sage, Chiron.

The power of immortality quickly repaired the damage to Ritsuka's body. She forcefully wiped the blood from her cheek.

"Just a normal, kind passerby."

"I have a question."

The unfurled Gan Jiang Mo Ye were raised by Ritsuka, whose arm had already self-repaired, pointing directly at Julian, who had his hands in his pockets.

Ritsuka's expression turned fierce.

"Julian, five years ago, was it you... who caused that darkness?"

"—It was me."

Julian admitted it directly, nodding indifferently. The disaster that had claimed countless lives seemed like a trivial matter to him, not worth a second thought.

Kiritsugu's death was related to the appearance of that darkness. Something within Kiritsugu had been activated by that darkness.

After witnessing that darkness, Kiritsugu frequently vomited black blood clots...

It was this man standing before her who had killed Kiritsugu Emiya!

Ritsuka's expression gradually became deranged. "Julian!!"

Crimson energy rose from Ritsuka's body, then transformed towards black. Her figure vanished from the spot like a released arrow.

The two blades swung down from above. Ritsuka's attack on Julian finally carried killing intent. Her furious expression seemed to spew fire, and the sudden outburst stunned Julian.

Their paths crossed. Gan Jiang Mo Ye landed in empty space. Julian used a strange Magecraft that had appeared in her memories, completely swapping the space at the point of impact.

Something bizarre swallowed Ritsuka whole. The next moment, she appeared in mid-air, at least dozens of meters above the ground.

Several streaks of light rapidly approached from a distance. Sensing the approaching danger, Ritsuka's expression changed slightly. "Wh—!?"

Spears, swords, and halberds—over a dozen weapons were struck down by Gan Jiang Mo Ye. However, Gan Jiang Mo Ye itself also shattered due to the quality issues of projection, turning into countless points of magical light that fell to the ground. Ritsuka then fell freely onto the ruins of the convenience store.

The red-haired girl stepped into the ruins and attacked the moment Ritsuka landed. A massive axe-sword descended directly.

The axe-sword was incredibly familiar, but Ritsuka had no time to think. A large amount of magic poured into her palm, and she immediately projected a shield, meeting the weapon of unknown material head-on.

"Ugh—!!"

The shield was smashed to pieces by a terrifying force. The power exploded in her hands, and Ritsuka was sent flying backward.

Her arms broken, Ritsuka's back crashed through a wall, then collapsed another house. She fell into the rubble.

At this moment, Ritsuka understood. The girl, who barely reached her chest, possessed a power similar to hers—the power of Heracles.

But the gap was immense. She was currently incapable of resisting the opponent.

"Ugh—... Damn it..."

Spitting blood, the immortality repaired her body. Ritsuka painfully pushed away the debris with her broken arms, trapped in the ruins.

The Crystal Dice lit up once more. This time, it was the great bow of the Hydra. As a formidable Noble Phantasm, if she could pick it up, she would have a chance to fight as long as she could maintain distance.

But this time, she couldn't retrieve it.

A cold, sharp light flashed in mid-air. Silver chains bound her tightly, locking her in the ruins. Then, a golden spear descended from the sky, piercing Ritsuka's chest directly and pinning her to the ground as she struggled to get up.

Countless divine weapons floated in mid-air. In the blink of an eye, they crossed a hundred-meter distance, nailing Ritsuka's limbs and body.

Arms, legs, abdomen, chest…

Ritsuka's eyes glazed over, and they gradually lost their breath.

PS: Let me explain here. This book is light yuri, and it's highly likely that even topics of sex won't be discussed much (estimated). Whether it's a single female lead or a harem will depend on the situation; I haven't decided yet.

What I'm hoping for is a single lead, Matou Sakura in the world of snow, with other girls having ambiguous relationships, or perhaps some other girls having unrequited crushes on Ritsuka.

It's a multi-anime battle genre. I can't write long stories for a single anime, and personally, I feel that multi-anime is not that difficult except for the first few arcs.

Worlds I plan to visit (not guaranteed): Re:Zero − Starting Life in Another World, Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry, Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?, etc.

Chapter 29: The Painful Immortality

"Remember, you have to be extremely careful. Even without her Divine Child abilities, there are countless people watching Miyu."

Kiritsugu's face appeared before them, and his dying warning echoed in their ears.

The stable situation had made Ritsuka let down their guard. Coupled with a myriad of coincidences, Miyu was able to attend elementary school at Hogwarts Academy, but it was all over now.

With little time left, the Enzō clan mobilized. A mere legend in the working world, being able to do the work of three people didn't mean they could face three magi alone.

In the end—

She was still too weak… both mentally and in ability…

There were many options, and they had initially chosen the option that would make Miyu happy, but they lacked the ability to protect her.

Even with a Golden Finger that might be a cheat, they couldn't do it.

Perhaps they shouldn't have been saved by Kiritsugu in the first place; it would have been best to die alone in that fire.

In endless darkness, Ritsuka fell into the abyss…

"Dad…"

"You're awake… I'm sorry, the person who saved you wasn't your father."

A man wearing a ramen chef's headscarf and an indifferent expression sat quietly in the chair beside them, refuting Ritsuka's subconscious murmur.

Before them was an unfamiliar ceiling and an unfamiliar person. In a somewhat cramped room, an oil lamp hung high up.

It was a little blinding. Ritsuka, lying on the bed, squinted. "Where is this?"

"The Fuyuki Church."

Closing the Bible in his hands, the man met Ritsuka's gaze.

The next moment, as if remembering something, Ritsuka's blank mind tried to sit up directly, pressing on the bed—

"Hiss—! It hurts!!"

There were no obvious injuries, but a tearing pain lingered throughout their body, as if it were about to disintegrate them from the inside out.

Seeing Ritsuka's face full of confusion, the middle-aged man sitting beside them sighed. "I suggest you don't move around too much and get some rest."

"Although healing has been administered, and you have a power that repairs itself, it comes at a price."

Hearing this, Ritsuka froze and instinctively raised their right hand. The Crystal Dice emitted a faint light.

[Immortality until transferred to Prometheus]

This was the immortality of Chiron, the great wise man and centaur of Greece. Now possessing this power, Ritsuka naturally gained this divine-like self-healing ability, but this ability came with a tragic price.

Legend had it that due to Heracles' accidental shot, Chiron was poisoned by the Hydra and suffered unbearable pain.

Finally, to end his suffering, Chiron transferred his immortality to Heracles, thus losing his life and finding release.

With this power, even the Hydra's venom could no longer kill Ritsuka, but the equivalent suffering of Chiron was also transferred to them.

This was the pain that had driven that wise man to suicidal thoughts!

"Ugh—"

Barely managing to sit up from the bed, Ritsuka looked at their tattered clothes, which hadn't been touched, and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

The middle-aged man dressed as a ramen chef began to stare at them. "I wouldn't do anything so tasteless. Personally, I prefer to make myself a bowl of Mapo Tofu ramen rather than molest underage girls."

"Huh? S-Sorry, I'm very sorry for suspecting you."

Ritsuka lowered their head and apologized to the man who had picked them up. The ramen chef waved his hand magnanimously.

"Thank you for saving me."

"You're welcome. As a clergyman, this much is my duty."

? ?

Seeing the man clearly dressed as a ramen chef but claiming to be a clergyman, Ritsuka's head was filled with question marks.

Obviously, they didn't believe him.

From the beginning, the person who saved them had left an impression on Ritsuka as a ramen chef who understood Magecraft. Although it felt a bit fantastical, that's what they thought.

"Judging a person's identity by their clothing is a bit foolish, but it's also my mistake… Follow me, and you'll understand."

Rising from the chair, he placed the Bible on the table and turned back as he walked out the door. "Right, my name is Kirei Kotomine."

Bang, the door closed. Ritsuka jumped off the bed, trying to relieve the intense pain within their body with deep breaths.

The Crystal Dice unfolded, and a set of casual clothes was directly taken out and changed into. The tattered school uniform was put back into the Crystal Dice, taking the place of the casual clothes.

Opening the door, they walked down the stairs, the light within the stairwell provided by oil lamps hanging on the walls.

Through the stairs, they entered a door, and the interior of a moderately sized church appeared before them. Kirei Kotomine, already changed into priest attire, extended his hands towards Ritsuka, looking as if to say, 'This should be fine now, right?'

"To the one who drowned in reality, welcome to the Fuyuki Church. I am Kirei Kotomine, a priest who bears witness to the end of the world."

'So, he really is a priest.'

Looking at the priest's strange smile, as if ready to enlighten a lost lamb, Ritsuka felt a slight sigh in their heart.

Ritsuka tugged at the tracksuit they were wearing, took a few deep breaths, and then bowed to Kirei Kotomine. "Thank you for saving me."

The bow was a bit too deep, and the pain caused Ritsuka's eyebrows to furrow.

"I'm very sorry, but I have something to do. I will definitely come to thank you properly later."

Ritsuka turned to leave. Their fingers held the Crystal Dice, and a light screen appeared in their vision, followed by the images and related data of two people.
