Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today.

"Just a guess...?"

Hearing this, Mashu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and a glimmer of hope rose in her heart.

It's not that she didn't want to believe what Goetia said, but if it was really as he guessed, then it would be too cruel for Fujimaru Ritsuka.

As an ordinary person, she came to Chaldea by chance and unexpectedly became the only remaining Master, and had to shoulder the responsibility of restoring humanity.

Along the way, she encountered terrible crises and overcame countless trials. Finally, after successfully restoring humanity, she was expelled from the world she had saved before she could even return to her peaceful daily life...

But at this moment, Mashu suddenly thought of something, and looked at U-Olga Marie cautiously, and her heart, which had been relieved, was suddenly lifted up again.

"Director..."

Goetia and other human evils have never come into contact with the restraining force, and they are just guessing based on their actions, but U-Olga Marie admitted it herself and they are negotiating with the other party.

Perhaps the other party knows more information.

"Is this..."

U-Olga Marie understood what Mashu wanted to ask, and her expression became a little tangled. And this expression suddenly made Mashu's heart sink.

Could it be that……

After hesitating for a moment, U-Olga Marie finally confessed helplessly:

"In fact, we don't know much about the situation here, and we also don't know why the inhibitory force does this."

"but……"

The restraining force is divided into the Alaya-vijnana, the collective subconscious of humanity, and the Earth consciousness Gaia, so their negotiations with the other party are also divided into two aspects.

On the Alaya-vijnana side, although there are guardians directly under the other party in Chaldea, they are obviously of no use in negotiations.

After comprehensive consideration, although she is Beast7, the beast of the end, but as the guardian of human reason and the former director of Chaldea, she naturally becomes the representative of Chaldea to negotiate with Alaya-vijnana;

As for Gaia, it was handed over to the Earth Princess, Elquet Brunstad, who was the candidate for Earth UO, and Aku Hinako, who was an elf and a former member of the Chaldean Masters.

However, the negotiation results on both sides were not so smooth.

Elquet's attitude was rather ambiguous. They didn't know the content of her conversation with Gaia, the consciousness of the Earth. They only knew that Gaia's response was: refusing to let Fujimaru Ritsuka return to Chaldea;

The same was true on their side. Alaya-vijnana did not tell them the reason for doing so, but the attitude they showed was very firm, and it seemed that there was no room for negotiation at all.

"why is it like this……"

After listening to U-Olga Marie's description, Mashu suddenly became very disappointed. She looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka worriedly again, not knowing what to do for a moment.

"--I see."

At this time, Draco, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke:

"So, this is one of the reasons why you planned to make Fujimaru Ritsuka a beast?"

The reason why the inhibitory barrier constructed by the two major inhibitory forces was able to keep Fujimaru Ritsuka out was essentially because Fujimaru Ritsuka himself, as a human being, was too weak.

However, if it is Beast V, a catastrophe that threatens the entire history of mankind, even if the two major restraining forces want to stop it, they may be powerless.

[Solo Appearance], each beast has the ability to appear alone in the world, allowing them to freely travel between various worlds, singularities, and lossbelts, and even realize the travel between parallel worlds.

In addition, since this skill also shows that it "already exists in any time and space", it has strong resistance to time paradox attacks caused by time travel and various instant death attacks.

Moreover, Fujimaru Ritsuka himself possesses the [Spirit Transfer] physique which seems quite mysterious even to them as beasts, and he can even travel to another world at will.

It can be predicted that after she becomes a beast, her [Solo Manifestation] will be EX-level to an unpredictable level, and it will be easy for her to return to Chaldea at will.

"Perhaps that is true, but..."

Matthew shook her head. She understood what Draco meant, but she was not optimistic about it.

If it was just to return to their world, to return to Chaldea, she believed that even if Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't become a beast, there were other ways to do it.

For example, Ina Koba was able to break through the barriers of the two inhibitory forces and bring Ritsuka Fujimaru back to Chaldea. There is no reason why the stronger Miss Astarte cannot do it.

But, what is more important now is that the two major restraining forces have simultaneously shown their intention to drive away Fujimaru Ritsuka. Even if the senior can suppress them with his strength and forcibly return to Chaldea, what should he do next?

In this state, can she really continue as if nothing happened and return to the normal life she expected?

Mashu couldn't come up with an answer, but the current situation made her somewhat pessimistic.

senior……

"—Calm down, Mash."

U-Olga Marie came to Mashu's side, put her hand on her shoulder and comforted her:

"Anyway, that's something we need to consider after Ritsuka wakes up. The most important question now is—"

She looked at Goetia again and asked in a deep voice:

"Is there really no problem at all with the ritual of Fujimaru Ritsuka's transformation into a beast?"

"!"

Mashu woke up from his dream and looked at Goetia. After hearing what she said, Goetia was silent for a moment and then slowly replied:

"I can't guarantee that."

"Eh?"

Mashu was shocked when he heard this, while Goetia looked at the dark sphere that wrapped around Fujimaru Ritsuka and said:

"The transformation process should be fine. Because, Fujimaru Ritsuka already has the potential and qualifications to become the evil of humanity. Even if we do nothing, she still has the possibility of becoming the evil of humanity."

Especially in the current situation, after learning about the attitudes of the two major restraining forces towards her, Fujimaru Ritsuka is also likely to directly degenerate into human evil.

Compared to that situation, it may be a better option for them to promote and accelerate this process.

"but……"

Goetia groaned:

“The real risk of this plan is not before it is completed, but after it is completed.”

"In the face of the evil nature and power of human beings, the body, soul, and size of a human being like Fujimaru Ritsuka... everything seems too insignificant."

“So, the final result is that Fujimaru Ritsuka successfully transformed into Beast V, or that Beast V was born in the body of [Fujimaru Ritsuka], this is not something we can control.”

"……what?"

Draco frowned, and visible anger quickly filled his body.

"When all is said and done... isn't this super dangerous-?!"

The latter that Goetia mentioned means that the malicious information completely devoured Ritsuka Fujimaru, and a new personality named BeastV was born on it, which also means the complete death of Ritsuka Fujimaru!

Goetia nodded without hesitation:

"True, but it's worth a try."

“It’s worth a try, just worth a try…!?”

The naked and fierce killing intent once again gushed out of Draco's body, but the next moment -

Pfft!

"—?!"

A dull sound like a heartbeat suddenly rose from everyone's heart, and at the same time, a heart-pounding feeling came with it.

Under the solemn gazes of the crowd, the dark spherical surface that was originally as calm as water suddenly became turbulent!
