"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"
"So you're the Beast of Calamity! You have 1.5 million HP! You're Humanity's Incineration! You're the golden tiger New Year's skin!!"
Mo Shuying went into full Goetia-bashing mode, making Goetia twist and fly all over the place.
Everyone watching below was stunned. Had the situation really changed that fast?
Just tens of seconds ago, it was all human sorrow and impending doom, but in the blink of an eye, it had turned into humanity beating up Goetia?
"Tear!"
"Ah!!"
With a scream, one of Goetia's arms was ripped off by Mo Shuying. What a thrill! He never expected tearing Goetia apart with his bare hands to feel so satisfying!
The tide had completely turned.
Goetia plummeted from the sky, then crashed heavily onto the ground.
Mo Shuying flew down after him, but he only felt his hand loosen, and the Ten Rings on his fingers flew off on their own.
"Huh? Is that it?"
Mo Shuying watched the Ten Rings fly into Dr. Roman's hands. He was fortunate they flew to Roman; if they had flown towards Goetia, he would have had to beat Goetia up again first.
"..."
Roman looked at the rings in his hand, feeling a bit speechless. What was he supposed to be doing again?
"Goetia, you've lost. There's no chance for you."
Mo Shuying stepped forward and stomped on Goetia's chest.
Goetia was also dazed from the beating, lying there without a word. It took Mo Shuying stomping on him twice before he finally spoke.
"Why is this happening..."
Goetia couldn't understand why things had ended up this way.
He possessed Solomon's Clairvoyance, capable of seeing through past and future, yet neither in the past nor the future had he ever seen Mo Shuying.
This was someone who seemed to not exist at all, a variable!
"What? Having an existential crisis?"
Mo Shuying scoffed, hearing Goetia's words.
"Existential crisis? Heh... What kind of life do I have... You, I couldn't see through you from the very beginning. I invited you twice, and you refused both times. No wonder you refused me; you truly have the capital to refuse."
As Goetia spoke, cracks appeared on his body, and his right foot began to crumble and dissipate.
Mo Shuying realized something when he saw this! That's right! Human King Goetia hadn't appeared yet!
Although Human King Goetia only had five minutes of life, how could he be sure nothing would go wrong in those five minutes?! He had no idea how ruthless that guy was in the game!
So.
"Stop with the lamenting! Just die in peace!"
A massive black axe-sword appeared in Mo Shuying's hand, and Nine Lives burst forth! The huge axe-sword struck Goetia's head, and the earth shook! Solomon felt his liver tremble.
"Boom boom boom boom boom!"
He continuously struck several times. Finally, more than half of Goetia had dissipated, with no signs of regenerating or causing trouble again. Soon, Goetia completely vanished.
"...Is it over?"
Mo Shuying looked at the dissipating light particles before him, still feeling a bit unreal. However, the experience gains weren't lying; with continuous level-up notifications, Mo Shuying's level reached an unimaginable 70.
Ding~ Host's level has reached its cap. A breakthrough quest must be completed to continue leveling up. Experience gained during this period will be retained.
Reached the cap?
Mo Shuying was full of questions.
Before he could even check the so-called breakthrough quest, the ground rumbled!
"Rumble rumble rumble!!"
"Roman! Mash! Come back quickly! This Singularity is collapsing!"
Da Vinci's voice rang out. Everyone looked at each other, then turned and ran!
As he ran, Mo Shuying stopped, a dark line forming on his forehead as he looked at the panting Roman.
"Can't you speed up?"
"I-I'm just a..."
"Stop, stop, stop! Right, aren't you Solomon? This Singularity should have been formed by your second Noble Phantasm, right? Can't you control it?"
Mo Shuying looked at Roman with hope, then watched as Roman ran past him.
"Control what?! I'm just an ordinary person now! I'm already trying my best to keep my second and third Noble Phantasms from attacking you all! Maintaining the existence of a world, are you trying to drain me dry?!"
"..."
Mo Shuying watched the distant Roman speechless. Indeed, this person's personality hadn't changed because of his appearance.
"Seriously! Useless when it matters most! Ritsuka! Get someone fast to get us out of here!"
Mo Shuying's own speed wasn't an issue, but the speed of the other three was truly worrying!
Fujimaru Ritsuka then looked at their arm, Mana rapidly pouring in!
*BOOM!!*
The ever-reliable Achilles appeared! His Chariot sped forward! He grabbed the three of them and took off! Mo Shuying began to accelerate, his speed not much slower than Achilles's Chariot!
"Faster, faster! It's just ahead!"
They burst out of the light gate and arrived at the collapsing outer region. They could already see Chaldea beginning to float, meaning it was preparing to leave this Singularity!
"To the anchor point, quickly!"
Dr. Roman pointed to a transfer point near Chaldea, where Spiritron Conversion could return them to Chaldea!
*BOOM!*
The light gate behind them shattered, and the ground began to collapse. Thankfully, Achilles was amazing! At an incredible speed, he delivered everyone to the anchor point just before he disappeared!
"Location reached! Initiating transfer!"
Dr. Roman placed his hand on the anchor point, and a flash of light appeared! The four of them vanished!
The ground shattered, and the last vestiges of the edge were swallowed by the void, leaving only Chaldea floating in the air.
Chaldea drifted further and further, as if it were about to wander into the void. If this continued, Chaldea might get lost in this environment, never able to return.
But just then, the surrounding starlight flashed! A massive, star-like figure seemed to open her eyes. She stretched out her hands, creating a huge circle of light! Chaldea passed through the circle of light and finally returned to a pure white world!
Seven days after the Temple of Time's capture.
Mo Shuying woke up from his bed. Don't misunderstand, it was just normal rest. After finally solving such a big problem, a good sleep was a wonderful enjoyment.
He got up and looked around. It was very empty. In this battle, due to Goetia's methods, all Heroic Spirits present at the time were forcibly sent back. Artoria, Karna, and Li Shuwen couldn't stay and were sent back to the Throne of Heroes.
More than six days had passed. Chaldea had sent people out to survey the outside world, to see if it had recovered, or rather, to see if it was still the same world as before. They had just returned.
"Mo Shuying, are you there? I'm coming in."
Dr. Roman's voice sounded from the doorway. Before Mo Shuying could agree, the door opened. Roman had returned to his previous attire, becoming the vice-director in a white lab coat, though his complexion was much better. With the problem resolved, he had finally gotten some good rest.
"Why bother knocking, it's redundant," Mo Shuying said, exasperated. Roman walked nonchalantly to Mo Shuying and handed him the folder he was holding.
"This is the information our people found outside. How should I put it, something's not quite right."
"Hmm?"
Mo Shuying took the folder and glanced at it. It contained ordinary information: countries, geography, time… Huh?
"2018? This… two years late?"
Mo Shuying remembered that the earliest results from Chaldea's observation of Humanity's History indicated that human history would only reach 2016 and then cease to exist. However, due to Chaldea's efforts, Chaldea ultimately triumphed, giving humanity a future. But these sudden extra two years were indeed a bit odd.
