He has skills similar to those of an innocent monster, but unlike him, people did not stigmatize him because of this. People in later generations believed that there were indescribable secrets, whether Queen Messalina was killed by Emperor Claudius, or the brutal extermination of Judaism under his command, or Nero's mother died at his hands... But in general, his deeds completely covered up these dark stories.
But this is also a question that people talk about with great relish, and has been used as the subject of several novels and movies.
Albion: EX
If summoned as a Lancer, it will appear as a combination of the two.
A life form that existed when the Earth was born, with nearly 46 billion years of life intelligence. Unlike the gods that are materialized by human cognition or belief, it is a primitive super-being that appears as his summoned creature and unscrupulously brings down natural disasters that terrify both gods and gods on the battlefield of the Holy Grail War.
【Holding a Noble Phantasm】
Owner of the Secret
Class: EX
Type: Anti-personnel Noble Phantasm
It possesses all the holy relics of Christianity, the remains and blood of many saints, the real Holy Grail, the nails of Jesus' crucifixion, the 30 silver coins obtained by Judas, the Spear of Longinus of Lucius, etc. In addition, as long as one is willing, even the "holy relics" of all angels and demons can be created through this treasure and exert their original power.
All saints, people who accept the grace of the church and God, and even angels and demons can be summoned continuously as independent servants.
No, the Extinction of the Sky
Class: EX
Type: Anti-God/World/Annihilation Noble Phantasm
Although it is not known to the public, the act of launching the fall of the One and Only God has been established in the realm record.
The sword in his left hand was transformed from the staff that Jesus Christ once possessed. It manifested the power of an angel floating in the sky, demonstrating the power of the glory of heaven. The gun in his right hand was the full power incarnation of the strongest dragon on the planet, emitting a brilliant light as gorgeous as the aurora in the sky.
Both are divine instruments of miracles as interpreted by me.
Due to the many legends derived from the Book of Revelation in later generations, it can be said that the concept of many legendary and even non-existent weapons has been gathered together, and the light of miracles has been further strengthened.
It is equivalent to the final blow before rebuilding the holy land, Jerusalem, in the final chapter of Revelation.
Being able to shatter everything and engrave everything in the world, that is the joy of death.
The Word of Revelation: The Holy Spirit
class:???
type:???
Although the New Testament was not written by him, it was edited under his leadership. Therefore, when people mention the author, they will think of him and the Holy Spirit described in the last Revelation.
Once this Noble Phantasm is activated, one will embark on a pilgrimage to become a holy spirit. The Three Beasts of Apocalypse will appear first as food, and the end of the world will begin with revelation. This Noble Phantasm can cause a catastrophe in heaven and earth on a scale that humans cannot cope with.
By continuously carrying out the process of Revelation, the size of the spiritual base will eventually increase, and finally reach a size comparable to that of the Savior job.
This spirit that exists in the hearts of all things will gradually surpass the authority of the Heroic Spirit Summoning System and overcome the restraining force. It is also the strongest divine power that has absolute control over all things in the universe.
The sky collapses and the earth splits, the world is destroyed, a new world is created, the flow of all things is controlled, and time flows backwards, all with a single thought. In other words, he who becomes a spirit is the Trinity who exercises the power of the one God.
However, due to some reasons, before reaching the final stage, I will voluntarily choose to destroy this huge spiritual base to avoid reaching the end.
“Even if the world cannot see the future now, there must be brilliant people who shine in order to survive. We must believe that their brilliance can save this world wrapped in the end. No one has the right to destroy a world where there are still people shining.”
A covenant in the hearts of all people
Class: EX
Type: Anti-realm Noble Phantasm
Before his death, the Son of God bore the sins of the world and ascended to heaven, making him the undisputed savior of mankind.
Those who failed to become spirits gave up the path that only one person could take, and used all their last bit of energy to make a covenant with all people before they passed away. From then on, they existed in the hearts of all people, were with all people, were with human beings, and were with the good that all people wanted to do.
In other words, no matter how terrifying the inhuman creatures or things in outer space are, as long as there is a person in the world whose pursuit of "good" is not completely destroyed, he himself is "immortal". Even if the pain of the body and soul will be incomparable, the belief will still exist, and any concept of "death" will not play any role.
the present
072: Adaptation is not random editing
The water of the Mediterranean Sea was not very cold. You could just hear the sound of the rising and falling tides until you could no longer hear them.
Then, in the eternal world, the silver-haired boy's eyes like the dark blue ocean opened again.
When he woke up from his 'deep sleep', the world he saw was Bucharest, the capital of Romania in 2014.
Outside the thick car windows were the streets of a big city. The sky was gray, a color Novia didn't like. There was also the sound of a taxi driver talking on his phone in front of him.
"You are already thirty-seven, are you really not planning to find a partner? Your mother and I are very worried. Your sister's current teacher is one of the most famous people there. I heard that he is very handsome and his ranking improves every time. How about you go and get to know him?"
"Oh... I almost forgot, you dropped out of school after only one week..."
"I was driving just to kill time. I've been in Romania for so long, isn't it to find someone suitable for you? Maybe one day I'll find you the prince charming you've always dreamed of. But it's rare to find a prince of thirty-seven. It might be the king, haha."
Are you talking to your child at home? You can't force it, but the tone is quite harmonious, so it should just be a joke or something.
Novia thought to himself that the reason he felt somewhat powerless now might be because the mystery now was even thinner than it was two thousand years ago, causing his soul to take some time to adapt to the rules of the contemporary world, a feeling of going from luxury to frugality.
After all, he didn't seem to worry about the mystery during the Roman period. Since he found Albion, he has been moving step by step towards a more mysterious state. Finally, in order to launch the Revelation, Yahweh directly opened the Texture and allowed the mystery allowed by Him to appear.
It was also based on this that Novia was able to obtain the authority of all of Rome. Although in the end, it had no effect except for allowing him to find Yahweh directly without entering the Gate of Heaven, because he was directly deprived of it by Yahweh during the decisive battle. It can be seen that this one god is still very unhappy with other gods...
"Um, is there a traffic jam?"
He spoke in a hoarse voice as if he had just woken up and waved his hand tentatively. Although it was not nice to interrupt the conversation between others and their family members, Novia could not help feeling confused. After all, when he was on his way to Rome, he was almost halfway there, so theoretically he should have arrived.
The man driving the car had deep wrinkles on his face because he saw Novia's actions in the rearview mirror. He took off his headphones, slowly opened the car window, turned his head and glanced at Novia, whose forehead was sweating:
"You finally woke up. I thought you were sick and unconscious, so I planned to take you to the hospital."
"Thank you for your concern, but I just had a good sleep and I'm fine now."
"Okay, don't wake up later even if you call me. I've kept this for a long time. I'll give it to you to eat." After a few seconds of silence, the man threw an apple to Novia and turned his gaze to the front of the car. "Then again, you should be a believer in the church. After all, only believers would wear a cross pendant. Or it must be a gift from your elders."
".......Um?"
After taking two bites of the apple, Novia looked at his chest in confusion. There was indeed a cross pendant that emitted a faint silver light under the light. He was sure that he did not have this thing before he went to Rome...
Is this the so-called reward? Novia's mind moved, and the system prompt box suddenly appeared in front of him.
However, there were no prompts, even the time travel item was dim. It was not like before when I could come back and continue to choose. Maybe it needed to be recharged, or maybe it was not refreshed.
"Yes, I am a believer. This was given to me by the dean who adopted me."
Novia didn't object, he just found an excuse to get away with it.
In this world, Novia grew up in an orphanage, and the reason he learned magic was because the director of the orphanage saw that he had good aptitude, so he taught him...
When Novia thought of this, he had some sudden thoughts. Could it be that the dean was actually the person who lost the fight for the "name" by the Burial Agency?
"I'm sorry about that."
The man observed the silver-haired boy behind him as if nothing had happened. When he thought about the fact that this man exuded huge magical power in the last few seconds of his coma without concealing it, if it had not been covered up by the magic that his eldest daughter had set up in her car, it would have been considered a provocation by the magician family stationed here.
But the boy seemed to really have no idea. Could it be that he had some inherited magic mark on him? In any case, the man found it very strange, so he brought up the topic again. He drove because he liked to chat with all kinds of people.
"By the way, the latest movie, if you are a Christian you probably haven't seen it, but I heard it's quite popular among young people."
"Movie?"
Although the old man was obviously trying to find a topic to talk about, Novia still went along with what he said. After all, it was just talking, and he didn't think it was a big deal. He had become a chatterbox in order to preach during the Roman period.
"It's the movie about the first pope of the church, Novia, and Agrippina the Younger, the mother of Emperor Nero, who fell in love at first sight, and then fell in love and hated each other for various reasons. In the end, she lost all hope and died at the hands of her lover's child, Nero."
"........" Novia closed his eyes, took a breath, and then exhaled. After doing so, his face, which had originally seemed a little subtle, became a little more peaceful. ".....As long as someone likes it, it's fine. After all, it's an adaptation."
After all, he also understood that myths and legends were constantly changing with the passage of time.
"Really? All the believers I met before cursed loudly..."
"I understand this feeling, it's normal, but I don't think Novia herself would care."
The silver-haired boy shrugged nonchalantly, and the man laughed, creating a gentle atmosphere between the two of them.
"I didn't expect you to be so open-minded, and not as pedantic as those people in the church...Okay, here we are."
After paying the money and getting out of the car, Novia saw the car window slowly rolled down again, and the driver waved at him.
"My name is Hiroki Sajo. I see you have a nice personality. Leave me your phone number. Or we can meet again some other day. Remember to come. By the way, I haven't asked your name yet. What's your name?"
"......Novia."
073: The story after that
When Novia learned that the driver's name was Hiroki Sajo, besides sighing, it was not difficult for her to guess who the 37-year-old daughter he had called before was.
In this modern age when the Age of Gods has passed and mysteries are fading, the Root Princess is born with the ability to connect to the Root. She has an almost unparalleled talent and is the strongest human Master who can use the magic of the Age of Gods.
Sand strip love song.
But no matter what, for people living in modern times, it's a success if they can surpass Brunhilde.
But since he lived to be 37 years old and both of Sajō's parents are still alive, it means that he did not participate in the Holy Grail War and saved his mother who should have died.
Also, because Sajo Ayaka seems to have become a disciple of El-Melloi II, and her cheap partner Sigma said not long ago that he was going to the United States to fight in the cup war, it means that she should be doing "harmless fishing" similar to the Himuro Tenchi world line, hoping to meet her ideal prince, making a lot of messes and letting her sister deal with it.
Novia had an idea of what Hiroki Sajo was planning to do. It was most likely that he wanted to arrange a blind date between his 17-year-old self and Aika Sajo, who was only 20 years older than him. As for whether they would fall in love at first sight?
He was not worried about this because he had only heard of blond princes charming, but not silver-haired princes charming... Well, there was one who barely fit the description, and he also killed many people, but his hair changed from blond to silver, and he went from being a prince to a king.
Moreover, Sajo Aika absolutely cannot see through Novia, but he is definitely not the "Prince Charming" she imagined. Even the old sword is a little short of her aesthetic requirements...
If it really was love at first sight, Novia felt that she should be able to calm down...
But no matter what, from Novia's current perspective, he thinks that Aika Sajo is a good kid, and that's good.
Entering the house, the landlady Fiore seemed very responsible, so there was not much dust here even though Novia had been out for a long time. But it should have been done by hired people, after all, she made a wheelchair, and there was no trace of using magic.
"Let's see what happens next."
After organizing the items in the suitcase and brewing a cup of coffee, Novia decided to see how the Roman Empire would develop after he left. He felt that all the plans he wrote on the piece of paper he left behind would be realized by Nero.
"Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, commonly known as Nero (December 37, 12 AD -?), was honored as the Roman Emperor due to his many achievements. He was also the second Pope after Novella. He was the only person in history to have both the title of Emperor and the title of Pope at the same time—"
Although he was somewhat surprised that Nero could become the Pope after him, Novia thought about it and found it normal. Although many apostles such as Paul and Peter were qualified to be the second Pope, what they pursued was not glory for themselves, but the common happiness of all people.
Therefore, it is normal for everyone to agree that Nero was a well-known disciple at the time, and that "Theus of Rome was a saint who was descended from Martha of Bethany," which is recorded in the New Testament.
But it is not difficult to guess that being both an emperor and a pope is by no means a good tradition. Perhaps it is for this reason that subsequent Roman emperors should have been restricted by Nero's privately set rules and unparalleled influence.
After all, Nero perfectly executed all the plans he left behind, invested heavily in Byzantium, and based on this place firmly grasped the hearts of the people in the east of the Roman Empire. With the blessing of Christianity that swept across the entire Roman Empire, he used a "violent" way to carry out top-down, bloody reforms.
According to records, Nero's final fate was that she suddenly disappeared one day. Some said that she disappeared in the flames that came out of nowhere, while others said that she ascended to heaven as she wished.
"But it is said that this emperor..."
Novia saw the last sentence on the information above and was unable to speak.
That short line of words seemed to be suspended in a world of dreamlike scenery where the sky was always filled with blue, and no one knew where the blue extended to.
——But it is said that she has been waiting for someone to come, always waiting for... "the person who promised to come back."
.........
Somewhere independent of time, a man sat on a decaying throne, with blue and white clouds and a hazy circular halo that seemed to be forming behind him. The steps were surrounded by half-broken pillars covered with moss.
"You put several chalices there."
A voice sounded out of nowhere, questioning the man on the throne from a high position. In an instant, the originally beautiful scenery turned into a madly surging blood-red sea.
"You are not qualified to know, and you shouldn't talk to me in such a self-righteous manner." The man stood up, revealing his bloodshot eyes. "Even if you are the disciple of that master, you are just an ally of mine now that you have fallen into this state."
After that, neither of them spoke, and the silence lasted for a while. It was not so much that they had nothing to talk about, but rather that they were just watching what their subordinates were doing.
Seventy-two pillars with countless eyeballs and a seven-headed dragon-like creature appeared, and the atmosphere between the two sides was filled with the possibility of conflict breaking out at any time.
"I'll ask you again, how long will it take! A Heroic Spirit Summoning System without any record of that person is simply useless!"
"...One year. Once the Holy Grail is placed, my demon pillars will use it to cut off the flow of history. The foundation of human history will be shaken. At the same time, a part of the flow will be drawn here, making the basis of human history fragile. Then, through the gaze, the entire human history will be ignited."
Goetia rubbed the rings on his hands and said meaningfully.
"In the end, whether I will create a new celestial body or you will create a new world without that adult, it all depends on your own ability, Draco."
