Countless eyes were staring at the video.
Ritsuka and Mashu take a desperate risk.
They were brave and kept moving around based on their familiarity with Chaldea.
Fortunately, no killing hunters were encountered nearby.
Mashu also saw through the surveillance footage that these mercenaries and Gao Yanskaya were surrounded inside the control room.
"Well, it seems that I am not dead yet." Da Vinci intervened at an inopportune moment, ignoring the looks his companions cast at the monster, and continued to speak while rubbing his chin: "But, this is really strange... these guys... actually crossed over from the Lostbelt to this side?? Speaking of which... at this time, I should have wanted to give the bond boxes of the Heroic Spirits to Ritsuka and Mashu, so I didn't leave."
Da Vinci's analysis was very logical.
The reality is basically the same as what she said.
This box that contains the bonds between Chaldea and the Heroic Spirits is truly a priceless treasure.
Da Vinci had been waiting for Ritsuka and Mashu for a long time.
All preparations are complete.
The few of them have only one goal left.
[Escape]
As long as there is life, there is hope. As long as there is hope, there is a way to make a comeback... As long as there is a way to make a comeback, people can be saved and can get back what they have lost!
Adhere to this belief.
The original Chaldean partners worked together.
On the way to escape to the distant shore, seeking the last straw of life.
Defeated the Killing Hunters and escaped heavy detection.
Finally arrived at the final escape route, the box truck that could serve as a shelter, but...
Just as they were about to leave, they were tripped by something.
It was the new director's cry and request for help that came through the radio.
From the initial cry to the final self-pity.
Fear, terror, crying.
All this corresponds to the previous arrogance and domineering;
Including the Chaldean employees, including Ms. Da Vinci.
When faced with this difficult decision, everyone chose to give up on this man who had done nothing.
But...
But.....
When Lixiang raised his leg and was about to step into the box, shouts came from the radio again.
The urging of partners and the imprisonment of the director.
While hesitating, the young man seemed to be pulled to the crossroads of moral bottom line and selfishness.
Is it to become a saint or to remain an ordinary person?
Perhaps Fujimaru Ritsuka already has the answer to this question in his heart.
but--
When I heard the man's call, heard his ideals and ambitions, and heard his last words.
The heart that seemed to have been determined was shaken again.
[No matter where I am, I am always an outcast, a loser, and a hated person! ]
[I know, I’m an annoying guy! But, there’s nothing I can do about it!!!]
[I have tried my best! I have done my best! I don’t want to be the best in everything! I will be satisfied even if I am second or third.]
But the result..
[Haha] The voice was forced to laugh, full of despair and self-mockery, [What's the result? I can't even get third place...]
Hearing this, Mashu's face showed a depressed look...the words she had heard before emerged in her mind.
At the same time, the silver-skinned woman who had previously occupied a section of the screen as the main perspective suddenly occupied the screen and appeared behind Mashu.
Who is she? Is she one of the enemies lurking here?
The audience didn't know.
Because more or less the audience fell into deep thought when they heard the new director's true feelings and cries of self-abandonment.
[Damn it! I’ve never had anything good happen to me before!]
"I was thinking, finally! I can finally succeed!"
[No matter where I go, will I always be the last in my life? Damn it, damn it...]
[I don’t want to die yet… because, because… because I have never been recognized! ! I have never been loved by anyone, by anyone! ! ! ]
Roaring, roaring, howling with crying and despair.
These passages, the words that tear open one's own wounds time and time again, seem to be the portrayal of many ordinary people... These passages, like the reality of many ordinary people who have tried hard to become extraordinary but ultimately remain ordinary, are full of bitter irony.
"Maybe.. he's just not fit for the role of Chaldea's Master, Ritsuka's boss?"
In the continent of Teyvat, Paimon danced beside his friend Ying's shoulder, his worried eyes full of pity: "He... is so pitiful."
It's not sarcasm, but a biological instinct. After hearing these experiences and very realistic and heartbreaking words, I sighed from the heart.
So, what will Fujimaru Ritsuka do?
This has also become the most concerned topic among the audience.
"From an emotional point of view, not saving him is the best choice." At this time, the world's number one detective L also made a judgment after reasoning. His eyes were sunken with dark circles and he stared at the screen. He analyzed word by word: "But... if he does this, he will not be Fujimaru Ritsuka... Hearing these past events that are similar to the former director, and listening to this ordinary person's cry for help, I'm afraid... he will rush out without any suspense, right?"
It is precisely because of this that... Fujimaru Ritsuka will probably lose his most important partner as the price for such reckless behavior.
Saying this in his heart, L fixed his gaze on Da Vinci who was smiling beside Ritsuka, and finally sighed softly: "This is the price of kindness..."
The price of life is paid by death.
When Ritsuka made this choice, some things were destined... It's bitter and ironic. This is something called fate, which is very difficult for humans to resist and crack.
The audience will never know whether Ritsuka's choice was to obey fate or to defy fate.
only--
He was clearly suffering the punishment for making this choice.
"They really did save the new director."
"He indeed led the new director through many encirclements and even faced the servants brought by the anomaly. Although he was unable to defeat them, he still managed to escape unscathed."
"But, after all, this is only a short-lived advantage."
"On this road destined for suffering, all the connections and encounters will eventually move in the direction of dispersing."
Everyone ran away together.
The numerous icicles behind him formed a magical wall that was enough to freeze life into an ice sculpture and chased after him.
At this time, Mashu still believed that he had to fight once more to escape the siege.
Considering Matthew's physical condition, Da Vinci hurriedly stopped her.
There is no need for this, because no matter how fast the ice cone chasing behind is, it can't catch up.
The hero of Chaldea, the last commander of Chaldea.
During the battle with the unknown princess, Da Vinci used a flash bomb against spirits, protecting the Chaldean Master and gaining his first victory in the Lostbelt Servant War.
Even though it was a lucky, flawed victory...but for Chaldea right now, being able to escape was the greatest victory.
She brought hope of life to Chaldea.
I am like a moth that flies towards a candle flame and burns out in this final moment of my drifting.
After guiding all the Chaldean companions into the box, she persuaded Mash to evacuate quickly.
But this man who had protected his companions all his life, at the last moment, was still unable to stop the pace of his own destiny.
When Da Vinci's voice sounded.
Suddenly.
A pleasant and appreciative voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
That voice is so familiar.
"Yes, you are just one step away and you will win."
"Yes, just one step away..."
As soon as the words fell, suddenly.
Blood flew everywhere.
[Pfft——! 】
It was like a sharp knife stabbing into a fruit, the sound of the fruit breaking was accompanied by blood splattering across the screen.
In the close-up of the picture, Kotomine Kirei's indifferent and calm face and the bright red and hot blood on his cheeks appear simultaneously.
He stood behind Leonardo.
A hand stained with blood pierced through the miracle person who had protected Chaldea until now, shattering her soul core.
A sudden change.
Sudden loss.
Sudden sadness.
The incomprehensible phenomenon left Ritsuka completely stunned.
He looked at the scene in disbelief, at Ms. Da Vinci whose heart was pierced through, and at the cruel and cold silhouette behind her.
"...."
"....cough.."
Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Leonardo raised his head with difficulty, and the priest's understated words rang in his ears.
"Excuse me, you are full of flaws. If I wasn't paying attention, I would have pierced your heart."
Kotomine Kirei's smile was still gentle, and his face, which was smeared with Juanjuan's blood, was still calm and indifferent.
However, the screen gradually became dim... and only his last two words were left.
"Well, even if it's a Servant, it will disappear if its spirit core is destroyed."
"Goodbye, Leonardo da Vinci. The mind of Chaldea is thus completely destroyed."
Chapter 50. Goodbye, the Almighty
The sadness came too suddenly.
It was like a tornado had struck through everyone’s hearts.
One moment it was heaven;
The last kick to hell.
When Chaldea was about to escape unscathed, Kotomine Kirei's merciless attack and killing finally announced the defeat of the first generation of Chaldea.
"Ah!! Ms. Da Vinci, please don't!! Please don't let this happen, please!!"
Timeline on FSN.
When Illya saw this, she sobbed with great sadness.
Ever since Kiritsugu and Irisviel were resurrected by Shirou, she has gradually changed from her original slightly devilish personality to a romantic and innocent girl.
Naturally, we will also admire heroes like Leonardo da Vinci who fought for the world and devoted all their time...
But now... this partner who had helped Chaldea overcome many difficulties so far was shot through the chest.
