Earth Princess? No, it's Fujimaru Ritsuka!

"Ahhhhh, that's wonderful, Joan of Arc! This is truly the posture of a god! The savior I venerate! Sacred Mother! Let us raise the banner of salvation once more, and let the future turn into dark despair! My saint! The one I long for—"

Fujimaru Ritsuka continued forward.

The scorching light burned all the tentacles that kept wrapping around it.

With her at the center, the gravity field of the entire area seemed to have changed.

"I don't care about any godlike demeanor..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka's light form simply raised her fist.

"I don't care what you actually want to pursue..."

“Gil de Rais—you have harmed so many innocent lives, now it’s my turn to punish you.”

The breath of stars gathered on the gleaming fist.

Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly gathered a powerful attack, which transformed into a silver meteor.

The fist light was so hot that it distorted the air, completely evaporating even the surrounding pink mist.

boom--!

The deafening roar shook the entire Weiyuan River!

The sea monster's body collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The gray skin and flesh melted away layer by layer, revealing countless tiny, shimmering specks of soul light inside!

"It's not over yet!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka held her breath, while the red light she manifested became increasingly apparent.

If there are any energy monitoring devices nearby, the instrument report will probably be updated instantly.

She ignored the sea monster's struggles, ignored the monster that was twice her size, and ignored the sea monster's tentacles.

hum!

The starlight twisted like a whirlwind in Fujimaru Ritsuka's fist.

The awakened Star Breath is not as simple as just Star Breath.

Rather, it is a more intense, more scorching kind of punishment on the soul.

Its name is——

"Breath of the Stars - Iron Fist Judgment!"

Although various light cannons are very convenient to use, in a sense, only pure beating can vent one's anger.

Fujimaru Ritsuka wouldn't care whether the giant sea monster was sticky and slippery or not; with her ability to manipulate phenomena, she could ignore it all.

That is to say...

"One punch is enough to deal with your sea monster!"

"Ahhhhh! Why, why—this solemn soul. This noble fighting spirit is indeed the best proof of Joan of Arc, whom we all follow!"

"But why!"

"Why are you still unwilling to wake up from your dream!"

"Do you still believe that God will protect you?!"

"Don't you understand? The world you saved has abandoned you, betrayed you. Everything you saved was meaningless!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka understood.

The other person was referring to Joan of Arc, the saint of Orleans.

but...

"Pointless?"

"How dare you say it's meaningless?!"

The breath of the star instantly turned into flames.

The features on Fujimaru Ritsuka's face, now in its luminous form, were indistinct, but if any were visible, they would undoubtedly be those of unprecedented rage.

"Whether it's Joan of Arc, or Artoria... Her Majesty Nero, Captain Drake, and Miss Nightingale..."

"Everyone risked their lives and gave their all to pave the way for humanity's future!"

"Where exactly is the pointless part of this?!"

"You bastard..."

"You bastard, how could you trample on everyone's sacrifices for your own selfish desires—"

boom!

Crimson flames spread through the twisting flesh, countless eyes trembled on the sea monster's body, and its sharp mouthparts emitted desperate howls.

The fleshy lumps all over his body emitted terrified sounds.

But the pitiful state of this inhuman creature did not evoke any pity in Fujimaru Ritsuka's heart.

"Go back to the Throne of Heroes and reflect on your actions, you bastard!"

A moment!

Countless chunks of meat were instantly dissolved.

The golden light instantly engulfed the core of the magic book and Gilles de Rais.

The magician remained silent.

He stared blankly at the pure white, dazzling light of destruction that instantly engulfed everything.

The enormous sea monster could not withstand Fujimaru Ritsuka's attack.

The tentacles, which could easily defeat ordinary heroic spirits, were instantly vaporized by the scorching light.

His tall, imposing figure slammed the fist of light into the sea monster's body...

The light that shines within it.

It was so holy and beautiful.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

"My holy maiden! This is... this is true radiance!"

This was indeed a radiance that resembled, yet was not quite, that of the saint.

It is not Joan of Arc, but the light of the iron fist of the Dragon Saintess who has a connection with the Savior.

But clearly, the crazed Gilles de Rais couldn't recognize it.

He couldn't understand it either.

Looking back at the past glory, the bygone days... the light shining through the stained glass windows of Reims Cathedral was so dazzling.

In other words, that person cannot be saved...

That's why he went down such a wicked path, in order to deny the gods, because he believed that all humans must be the playthings of the gods.

Gods are monsters who love tragedy.

It writes magnificent poems and gives characters tragic endings—in order to highlight the miracle of creation, as if it had written a great work.

Just as Gilles de Rais was thinking this...

Everything is settled.

All that remained was endless despair and destruction.

The light instantly turned everything into nothingness, and the entire scene was also erased.

It was roughly one punch.

It carries the might of a holy iron fist, a fist aura that shatters demons.

The giant of light shattered the evil mist, dispelled the evil spirits, and defeated the monsters.

Fujimaru Ritsuka was filled with anger... but also with some complex emotions.

—Will they never be understood, nor will they find redemption?

—I am Fujimaru Ritsuka.

A human who, through a series of unforeseen events, became a True Ancestor and the last Master of humanity.

Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't explain whether her choices and path were right or wrong... but no matter what, she would keep going.

She transformed into the True Ancestor.

The scenery along the way is much, much, much longer than what humans can see.

But she still wanted to see...

The end of this road.

A colossal giant of light stood on the banks of the Weiyuan River.

She raised her arm and opened her palm, as if reaching out to grasp the moon.

The sky was high and clear.

The moon's posture is sacred and noble, covering the sky like the heavens.

Will Fujimaru Ritsuka be able to find the answer...?

"Thank you!"

A child's innocent voice rang out from behind the Fuyuki Bridge.

Fujimaru Ritsuka turned around and looked back.

She was a petite girl with pigtails, her eyes were blue-green, and she was as cute as a star.

"Thank you for saving us!"

"--Thanks!"

People spontaneously waved their umbrellas and applauded.

Apart from the red-haired perverted youth lying on the ground.

The Giant of Light nodded slowly and raised his hand, giving a thumbs-up.

--found it.

Fujimaru Ritsuka said to herself.

The final answer is not the full moon hanging in the sky, nor the starry sky, even though those are areas that humanity will inevitably enter in the future.

but now...

The answer lies on the surface of this planet.

Of all the people in Star Dream.

but...

Fujimaru Ritsuka does have a little bit of selfish motives.

Actually, she didn't need to become a light body; she could defeat the sea monster with a little more effort.

But she still chose to become a physical body...

Fujimaru Ritsuka probably did want to act like a "Giant of Light".

Chapter 237 The Answer to the So-Called Partners of Justice

The sea monster completely transformed, and Bluebeard's spirit origin also vanished in an instant.

Fujimaru Ritsuka felt a certain degree of pity,

However, Bluebeard has hurt so many people, so letting him return to the Throne of Heroes is far too lenient on him.

Looking at the Weiyuan River, which has returned to calm in an instant.

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded goodbye to the humans.

She transformed into light, spread her arms, and then vanished from everyone's sight in this dazzling radiance.
