Earth Princess? No, it's Fujimaru Ritsuka!

Edison's eyes dimmed.

A giant lion, a legendary inventor of wisdom.

The messenger of light who brought electricity to mankind is surprisingly childlike at this moment.

"However, I think you can try to get that qualification again. Humanity and America? Why do you have to choose one or the other! Saving both is what we should be doing."

"So, fight alongside me, Mr. Edison."

"Not the President of the United States, but..."

"One of the founders of human technology, the king of inventors!"

The war is imminent.

But the United States began to make strange moves.

Fujimaru Ritsuka, who defeated Edison in the contest, rightfully became the true leader of the United States.

The first step is to break the brainwashing.

First, let many soldiers regain their normal thinking.

Because Helena had many backup plans, they were quite easy to counter.

Those who wish to continue serving will continue, and those who do not wish to continue will be repatriated.

The factory also stopped relying on rampant exploitation and ceased large-scale production of steel armor.

This near-self-destructive act made it seem as if the United States was about to give up and surrender.

This strange behavior immediately made Maeve feel uneasy.

She didn't care what the United States did; whatever they did, they couldn't possibly defeat Cú Chulainn.

The problem is that with Finn and his two incompetent generals dead, there are few commanders available to send out, which is a real hardship.

"Xiao Ku, since that's the case, let's not take any strategy."

Maeve looked at Cú Chulainn, her eyes filled with love as stretchy as cheese.

"With unlimited energy comes endless power. Transform into a monster and slaughter everything in your path."

This is destructive love.

The one named Maeve only had Cú Chulainn's twisted love in her eyes.

She took the Holy Grail out of her body.

Then it was buried in the solid, brown chest of Cu Chulainn, marked with blood-red stripes.

"This way, Xiao Ku can perform without any worries. No one can defeat you. You just need to fight."

Maeve wasn't unaware of the possibility of defeat, so she figured she might as well unleash the full power of the Mad King Cú Chulainn as soon as possible.

His strength was already beyond the level of those capable of manifesting in the world, and with the full support of the Holy Grail...

Maeve doesn't think she'll lose.

Even if she falls into a disadvantageous position, she still has a very strong trump card.

After all, unlike the bosses of the previous singularities, they only had one Demon God Pillar... but she can summon a total of 28!

Twenty-eight Demon God Pillars!

That is, twenty-eight, three times the combat power of a first-class Servant.

What does it matter if a few Celtic Servants die?

She simply can't lose, she can't lose!

With twenty-eight massive pillars, even a single strike could kill dozens of Servants. How could she possibly lose?

This is almost a third of Solomon's power excluding magic.

She gently swayed her legs, which were as white and smooth as jade, and with a confident smile, she took out a dagger and lightly made a cut on her fingertip.

As blood dripped, countless Celtic warriors were created.

Endless and boundless, covering the mountains and plains, it seemed like an ocean gathered by Celtic warriors.

They marched forward in perfect unison.

The roar of battle erupted and reached the sky.

However, this world is filled with people who are afraid of death and hesitant to move forward.

There are also humans who are brave enough to forge ahead and abandon everything to protect others.

Right after Fujimaru Ritsuka issued the order to dismiss the soldiers—

Some sergeant majors came up to us.

"We must stay and fight."

"That's what the soldiers said."

"We will not retreat."

"We live here, and many people fought for independence, initially against British troops and against indigenous tribes..."

"Back then, for survival, for our own ambitions, for our political ideals, we trampled on the lives of others, and at the same time, our lives were trampled on by others..."

"But then one day, a group of monsters disguised as ancient warriors suddenly appeared, stealing the land and taking lives. We thought... since the land was taken from us, even if it were taken, it was ultimately due to our lack of strength..."

"But that's not how it works."

"Those Celts."

"They want to destroy humanity."

"Destroy everything that exists indiscriminately, regardless of nationality, race, or identity."

"so--"

"We must fight on, no matter what."

"Please also allow us to continue following President Wang and fighting on!"

This is the wish of countless people.

It's not for wealth, status, or land.

Instead, they wanted to choose a path from death onwards where they could see the future.

Fujimaru Ritsuka did not want to undermine their resolve.

This kind of spirit is something that Fujimaru Ritsuka should learn from.

She agreed to the soldier's request.

Let's save everyone's lives as much as possible; she doesn't want to see anyone else sacrifice their lives.

"Let's break through to the next level in one go, and then defeat the Mad King Cú Chulainn and Medb!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka led her followers on a march toward Washington.

"This battle must be won quickly. We must concentrate all our strength and break through in one fell swoop!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka's first team consists of Nero and Elizabeth.

Have them build a large stage on the route the Celtic army is bound to take, and at the same time, ask Edison to use his powerful productivity to produce a large number of large loudspeakers and sonic cannons.

Edison's expression changed.

The enormous lion's head actually showed an expression of fear and terror.

"Master...you wouldn't be planning to—"

"Yes, I need to expand the range of Elizabeth and Nero's sonic cannons, especially to lure the Celtic legions into the valley and ambush them."

""

It's too cloudy.

That's really too sinister.

How exactly can the Elizabeth and Nero pairing be broken?

Even Celtic soldiers could not withstand this kind of mental torture.

Now they're even going to further enhance their singing.

Singing your enemy to death—in human history, only a world-class superstar like Michael Jackson has ever achieved this.

"Yes, otherwise, even a Servant might be exhausted by the sheer number of Celtic soldiers.

Fujimaru Ritsuka explained, "So my plan is to gather a small force and break through in one go, first defeating Maeve, and then leaving the troublesome Cú Chulainn for later."

"And Karna..."

The white-haired, golden-armored spearman had a calm expression, but his eyes contained an undisguised urgency.

Even someone as composed as him was moved when he met that man.

"Go and fight Arjuna."

"Don't hold back, just unleash your full potential and have a good, satisfying battle with him."

"Well, thank you."

Karna didn't say much.

His eyes were fixed quietly in a certain direction.

That direction was precisely the direction the Celtic army was marching in.

He gripped the spear tightly.

The golden spearhead reflected the sunlight.

He was eager to fight to the death with his "brothers".

"Billy the Kid, Geronimo, and Robin Hood."

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the three of them.

To be honest, these three are not powerful Heroic Spirits. In terms of combat strength, they are basically unable to cause any damage to Cú Chulainn. However, if they were to carry out a surprise attack mission, they could definitely achieve unexpected results.

"Take cheese and smear it on your daggers, bullets, and crossbow bolts. Use Robin Hood's [Faceless King] invisibility to get close to Maeve. As long as you defeat Maeve, who is the breeding ground [Queen], the Celts will stop massing troops."

"cheese?"

Billy was slightly taken aback: "What's the cheese for?"

"Hmm... According to legend, Queen Maeve was killed by cheese, so if we carry cheese, we might be able to launch a special attack on her."

Geronimo thought for a moment, then his dark, serious face relaxed as he explained.

"I understand. So, the cause of death in life has become the weakness of the Heroic Spirit. I get it."

"Then it's up to you."

Although their combat strength is not strong, they are good at adapting to changing circumstances.

Furthermore, even if Fujimaru Ritsuka could supply magic power at close range, her combat strength wouldn't increase much... It's perfect to have them operate as a special operations team.

"Be careful. If anything unexpected happens, don't force it. If you need to retreat, then retreat... If you encounter any difficulties, we'll figure out a solution together."

Fujimaru Ritsuka gave the instructions.

"Eh... Master, you're quite a strange person to tell your Servants to be careful."

Billy the Kid adjusted his cowboy hat and smiled nonchalantly: "But we're all outlaws, so sometimes we might not care too much."

"Well... after all, that's what people like us are like."

Robin Hood said this, then shrugged: "I can only say that I will try my best. Since our mission is to defeat Maeve, then completing the mission is our primary goal."

"Then please."

"So... does that mean, what about Cú Chulainn, the Mad King?"

Geronimo suddenly realized something and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka: "Could it be—"

"Leave the Mad King to us."

"Cú Chulainn...that Cú Chulainn..."
