Chapter 44
Guda-ko Struck Down

This was the first time Gudako had gained a deeper understanding of the enemy behind the burning of humanity.

It had burned to parallel worlds, this enemy, exceeding all imagination in its terror.

Even in this moment, Gudako felt a sense of despair. There was no way around it, given the current intelligence about the enemy and the pressure it was exerting, it was simply too terrifying. An enemy that could even attack parallel worlds, and she was just an ordinary person.

Gaetius, as the embodiment of human evil, was indeed special.

At least in the Fate world, he was unique. Therefore, including this world, with Yuma Ennto Yehuang and Gudako, and all other parallel worlds within Fate, he was the only one. The humanity that Gaetius burned was aimed at the entire human history within Fate.

This level of enemy, for Gudako, who was currently an ordinary person, was absolutely suffocating.

Seeing Gudako a little disheartened, Yuma Ennto Yehuang could only open his mouth again to comfort her.

“It seems you’re going to give up on humanity?”

“But how could you possibly defeat such an enemy?”

Gudako felt like giving up.

“I think it’s not too difficult!”

“Huh? Yehuang, you’re so confident? You can beat that mastermind?” Gudako didn’t believe it.

“Of course… I can’t.”

How could a Servant fight Gaetius? He’d be immediately forced out. As long as you use the Fate world’s Spirit Origin, you can't avoid Gaetius’s Anti-Summon.

“What are you talking about then!”

Gudako lost her temper and started cursing.

But Yuma Ennto Yehuang found it interesting and continued, “But if my true form came, it wouldn’t be a problem.”

“True form?”

Gudako’s eyes widened: “You’re not human!”

Yuma Ennto Yehuang:

It sounds like a curse.

Gudako reacted, saying again, “Then why can’t you come help me?!”

“I can’t come. And...”

“And what?”

“The moment I arrive, it would be no less disastrous for all of humanity than the mastermind behind burning humanity,” Yuma Ennto Yehuang spoke the truth.

Gudako fell silent.

It lasted for a long time before she finally spoke softly, “If I’m going to fail in the end, can you come? Anyway, humanity is going to be finished. I absolutely won’t surrender to that mastermind. When the time comes, just kill that guy and avenge me.”

Yuma Ennto Yehuang:...

Good idea, but knowing the outcome, Yehuang felt very stable.

“Forget it. Anyway, in the end, I’ll just have your true form come. Now I’m not afraid at all. However, what is your true form? And how are you human now!” After speaking, Gudako looked up and down at Yuma Ennto Yehuang, and finally touched him.

She squeezed here, looked there.

It made Yuma Ennto Yehuang feel speechless. Gudako’s state of mind seemed a little off. It seemed he shouldn’t have said those things, it did seem to affect her. When he gets back, Romani shouldn’t give him trouble, right.

After thinking it over, Yuma Ennto Yehuang still had to salvage something.

“Anyway, Master, I believe in you. Don’t underestimate yourself. You are humanity’s last Master!”

Though he didn’t know if it would work, Yuma Ennto Yehuang still said it, of course, actively avoiding Gudako’s question about his true form.

And Gudako nodded, “Don’t worry. Although the enemy is strong, I’m the last Master of humanity. I won’t give up.”

Gudako is the last Master of humanity, that is indisputable, because Gaetius’s burning of humanity’s foundation was in the FGO world. Even though there are so many other worlds now, there’s absolutely no way to enter that world to quell those singularities.

Only Gudako can do that.

As for Gudako being disheartened, Yuma Ennto Yehuang didn’t think it was a big deal. When the London singularity ended, it was the first time Gudako talked to the mastermind, the Demon King. There, Gudako persevered, so he just used it to scare her a bit. There shouldn’t be any problems.

After figuring that out, Yuma Ennto Yehuang didn’t mind. Gudako was much tougher than he imagined. Moreover, he still had Mashu when he got back. He could try harder to mess with Gudako. He wondered what it would be like to see Gaetius face the last Master of humanity, and what kind of expression he would have.

“Alright, you can leave my room now. It’s time to rest!”

Gudako:...

“I’m going, I’m going.”

...

They mostly slept through the day, and only slowly left the inn at night.

“Where are we going today? Speaking of which, Yehuang, even though you fought before, I still don’t know what your Noble Phantasm is. When are you going to show it to me?” Gudako suddenly thought of this. Someone who can repel two Kings must be strong.

It’s just that until now, Gudako still hasn’t figured out what era Yehuang is from. He’s completely unknown. And he’s not his true form, making Gudako very suspicious. Could it be… some non-human legendary creature from a storybook?
