Chapter 91.19: The Time of Birth Has Come! Use This to Rewrite the Myriad PHENOMENA!!!
『 The entire world dissolved into a crimson hue; the bands of light that shrouded the heavens and spiraled through the sky grew ever more grotesque!
Tentacles of raw flesh sprawled across the earth, twisting, coiling, and weaving together. They crawled up that immaculate Jade Throne, as if binding blood and meat alike upon its surface!
A world of scarlet and jet black, a tableau of the apocalypse. Solomon… No!
Goetia laughed maniacally. In this moment, he seemed the sole center of the universe, his terrifying spiritual pressure making it impossible for Fujimaru and Mash to even breathe!
All eyes were fixed upon this singular point!
Amidst the chaotic, ominous tapestry of flesh, a figure slowly began to coalesce!
"I have no name, but if you must address me, then call me this: The existence that has arrived at true wisdom. The existence that was craved for this very purpose."
"The existence that shall turn you into fuel, embark on the journey to the ultimate pole, and forge a brand-new star."
"I am the Incineration of Human Order, the King of Demon Gods, Goetia!"
From the chaotic mass of flesh, a humanoid figure of gold stepped forth. A bizarre, terrifyingly towering physique, flames burning upon his horns, and a grotesque, gigantic crimson eyeball in the center of his chest, staring fixedly at Ritsuka Fujimaru. 』

[ Hiruzen Sarutobi (Naruto): "Just as I suspected! It is that ultimate existence that destroyed an entire alternate world and burned every soul on that planet!" ]
[ Chaotic Evil Gudako (Type-Moon): "That's right, it's total Goetia!" ]
[ Noriaki Kakyoin (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure): "How ironic that the one who truly understands human suffering is an Evil of Humanity." ]
[ Usopp (One Piece): "Aaaaaah! Just looking at him is terrifying! Can Fujimaru and Mash really defeat a monster like that?!" ]
[ Sora (No game, No life): "If we go by his original difficulty level, it would be absolutely impossible for Ritsuka Fujimaru and the others to defeat him. However, there is still a chance now—they must end Goetia before his First Noble Phantasm is completed!" ]

Pure Land—
"In other words… Goetia is a creation of Solomon, yet he developed his own consciousness. Not only did he betray Solomon, but he also stole his corpse."
Having comprehended the entirety of this situation, Uchiha Madara's brow furrowed so deeply it looked like a cross-hatch pattern!
Why… does this sound strangely familiar?
Does a creation really inevitably betray its master?

〜Bleach World〜
"Love for humanity… Is it precisely because he loves humanity so deeply that he must destroy it?"
"But you have underestimated the ants' thirst for life."
Aizen revealed an inscrutable smile.
Attempting to persuade humans—bound by desire and short lifespans—with a utopia and a long-term vision?
He still does not understand humans enough.

〜Type-Moon World, ???? Worldline〜
In the 6th Lostbelt, Fae Round Table Domain, Avalon le Fae Lostbelt—
"The Jade Throne… the end of everything?"
Beneath her black veil, Morgan's expression shifted slightly.
What a farce. As someone who also sits upon a throne, the scene before her felt like a challenge to her very convictions.
Harboring a heart meant to save the world, yet challenged by a fellow savior.
"Perhaps, in the end, the ones standing before me will still be these guys…"
—
『 The moment Goetia emerged, all of Chaldea plunged into unprecedented panic, with piercing alarms and flashing red lights!
"Spirit Origin Structure Type: Anti-Human!"
"Spirit Origin Output Value is Second-Class Planetary Grade! It is Beast I!"
The entirety of Chaldea was gripped by shock and stupor. In a corner shrouded in darkness, Dr. Roman hung his head, uttering not a word. 』

Romani, what secret are you hiding?!
Watching Romani, who seemed too terrified to speak, the crowd narrowed their eyes. The answer from before—why was Romani the only one who did not return?
What role exactly does Romani play in this epic adventure?!
Is he really just an Acting Director?!
However, what concerned everyone more right now was that since Goetia had actively revealed his identity, it meant the true storm had arrived. Everyone had witnessed that scene of the surface being cleansed.
They did not believe Ritsuka Fujimaru and the others could withstand such an attack!
Could it be Heroic Spirit assistance again?
Moreover, recalling Tiamat from before, everyone couldn't help but suspect: Does Goetia also possess immortality?
.....
『 "One of the Seven Evils of Humanity. The Beast of Disaster, Beast I!" Mash said heavily.
The aura of the Beast was now fully exposed. That oppression, that terror, that malice which seemed ready to swallow the entire world made Fujimaru and Mash's bodies tremble!
This was not something Tiamat could compare to; this was a Beast truly operating at full capacity. His mere presence was enough to nearly cause them to break down!
Goetia's voice carried an unconcealed rage. "In the past, there was an omniscient and omnipotent King, a man granted power by God."
"He possessed eyes that understood the past and future, eyes that could know everything in the world. We became that man's shadow, gaining the same perspective as him."
They witnessed countless tragedies. They witnessed countless betrayals. They witnessed countless plunderings. They witnessed countless endings.
"Enough! There is nothing left that must be seen. On this planet, even God has no conclusion other than extinction."
"We have lost interest in humanity and the future. What we seek is a perfect environment capable of cultivating sound intelligent lifeforms."
Goetia gazed into the firmament, the depth in his eyes terrifying. "This planet is a mistake. It is a madness predicated on life that will end."
"I will reach the ultimate pole, rewind 4.6 billion years into the past, witness the moment a celestial body appears in this sector, and absorb all its energy!"
"I shall transform myself into a new celestial body, recreate this planet, rewrite the Genesis, and establish a planet with no concept of death. This is our Great Work!"
Goetia looked at Ritsuka Fujimaru and Mash, speaking softly. "We do not seek to destroy humanity out of hatred."
"We do so to obtain the energy to fly into the past, to witness the birth of the celestial body, to control the moment of it all, and for infinite adjustments."
"And a plan of such scale requires vast magical energy. It requires the total magical energy accumulated by intelligent lifeforms that have prospered continuously for 3,000 years."
"As long as all human history from 1000 BC to 2017 AD is converted into magical energy, we can achieve the magical energy volume to leap to this planet's origin."
"Destroying humanity is merely for this single point!" 』

[ Uzumaki Naruto (Naruto): "For the sake of such an ethereal existence, you would sacrifice all of humanity?! I will never accept that!" ]
[ Kurama (Naruto): "Heh, brat. Even now, have you still not seen the essence of the world? You're too kind, brat. No wonder they sealed me inside you back then." ]
[ Kyubey (Puella Magi Madoka Magica) "Whether it's humans or extraterrestrial life, everything will eventually march toward extinction. Compared to changing things little by little, completely destroying everything and starting over is indeed the best method." ]
[ Hades (Saint Seiya): "Completeness implies lack; extremes turn to their opposites. The moon waxes only to wane; water overflows when full. Humanity always declines amidst extreme prosperity, repeating the cycle until all things end." ]
[ Anti-Spiral (Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann): "A world without death may be impossible to birth, but this action at least reduces humanity's time by several hundred million years. Goetia's method is correct." ]
[ Thanos (Earth-616): "Humans are like mayflies, born in the morning and dead by dusk. How could they care about things hundreds of millions of years in the future? They only gaze at their present selves." ]
[ Aqua (KonoSuba): "What is this?! So this guy just suddenly got redeemed?!" ]
[ Luo Ji (Three Body Problem) "To some extent, Goetia isn't even black, okay? He just wants to ignite the humanity of his world and lead rotten mankind to a higher dimension. What's wrong with that!" ]
[ Tezcatlipoca (Type-Moon): "Such a Great Work! Hahahahahaha! It is precisely because the scale is so massive, the impression so colossal—this is truly a Great Work that surpasses the gods!" ]
[ Beyonder (Earth-616): "Once completed, it would be equivalent to a reboot event of our universe." ]

〜The Lands Between World〜
Why does this sound more and more familiar?
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. Is this… the Erdtree? The Perfect Golden Order?
Goetia, you understand the Golden Order too?!
—
〜Type-Moon World, ???? Worldline〜
The group looked at each other, stunned. Die for the sake of the future?!!
What kind of joke is that! Living well right now is enough! Who cares about the future!
What does the future have to do with them! If Goetia wants to destroy them, then they will risk their li—no, they will let Ritsuka Fujimaru risk her life to stop Goetia!
"Might as well have just been completely destroyed here,"
Daybit said indifferently from within his pod.
From the very beginning, Ritsuka Fujimaru and the others were used as cannon fodder by Marisbury. Although they were truly saving the world, they were simultaneously advancing the plan step by step.
Only Marisbury is the existence that poses a colossal threat to this planet and to the Human Order.
Grand Temple of Time: Solomon—
Goetia clenched his fist. Aside from the Demon Gods, this was the first time he felt somewhat unaccustomed to being acknowledged by others.
But an inexplicable sense of loneliness washed over Goetia.
Although there were those who acknowledged him, neither the humans nor the Heroic Spirits in this world… not a single existence acknowledged him…
But even so, he must realize his Great WORK!!!
Goetia, possessed of love for humanity, perhaps never realized that he… incomparably craved humanity's acknowledgement.
—
『 "Behold that Throne. That is the convergence of your lives."
The Planetary Reforging Plan is complete. In this new era, new domain, and new Earth, old humans like Ritsuka Fujimaru and Mash are unnecessary!
"My Band of Light is the accumulation of infinite human history itself. Before this, existences belonging to humanity have no chance of victory." Goetia issued the final challenge to Ritsuka Fujimaru, the Last Master of Humanity.
Let them complete the final task of the old domain, the old era, and the old Earth right here and now!
"Fool! Do you think we would agree to such a thing!" A figure streaked across the sky, slashing off Goetia's arm with a single sword strike!
Behind him was the army of Heroic Spirits that had arrived!
But Goetia's expression did not change in the slightest. He looked at those Heroic Spirits and said indifferently, "Very well. The journey to the ultimate pole does not require you."
"Welcome, everyone. Although it is a bit rushed, please hurry up and die."
Goetia's figure flashed madly among the Heroic Spirits like a violent storm. Whether hero, saint, or demigod, he met them all with his fists!
In front of hundreds of Heroic Spirits, Goetia was not at a disadvantage in the slightest, but he had grown weary of this meaningless combat.
It was time to end everything… 』
『 .....』
『 Viewers of Myriad Worlds 』
Everyone raised their eyebrows, full of confusion.
Although Goetia is a Beast, it shouldn't be possible for him to make so many—including Chief Gods and demigods—retire from the field in an instant, right?
But in the next moment, everyone was dumbfounded.
.....
『 "Retire," Goetia extended his right hand and clenched his fist.
"This is…?" The Heroic Spirits present froze. Enkidu, Jeanne, and the others instantly turned into particles of light and vanished from where they stood!
"I am the supreme summoning spell created by you humans."
"As long as you are a Heroic Spirit, it is impossible to surpass me."
In an instant, only Goetia, Fujimaru, Mash, and Fou remained.
"How is this possible…" Ritsuka Fujimaru stared blankly at the scene, unable to recover for a long time.
From the First Singularity to this Temple of Time, her greatest reliance had been the Heroic Spirits, but now she was told that before Goetia, Heroic Spirits were merely numbers…
The girl stood dazed, looking at the Band of Light that resembled an awakening primordial beast, a despair that pierced her heart, welling up within her. 』

[ Kumoko (So I'm a Spider, So What?): "Hey! That's basically cheating! You clench a fist, and the Heroic Spirits just retire?! Doesn't that mean Ritsuka Fujimaru has no hope of winning?!" ]
[ Yakushi Kabuto (Naruto): "Anti-Summoning… Indeed, this one is the source of Magecraft. How could a summoner use summoning spells as a tool to attack him?" ]
[ Phosphophyllite (Land of the Lustrous): "Forget that Band of Light, Ritsuka Fujimaru can't even withstand a 1v1 right now. Didn't you see Goetia fighting hundreds of Heroic Spirits without falling behind at all?" ]
[ Jogo (Jujutsu Kaisen): "So now is the true desperate situation…" ]
[ Blackbeard (One Piece): "So then, having lost their greatest support, how will Chaldea stop this First Beast? Zehahahahaha! It truly makes one tremble with anticipation!" ]
[ .....]
『 "Now then, the time has come, people of Chaldea." Goetia's body ascended into mid-air.
"Third Noble Phantasm deployment confirmed. That… cannot be stopped, right, Senpai?" Mash asked softly.
Her purple eyes gazed at the vast Band of Light. No one could triumph over that light. In that moment, the girl suddenly understood her fate.
So that's how it is… I was born for this moment, Doctor…
Goetia asked Mash for the third time why she would not accept his proposal. He could understand Mash, and Mash should be able to understand him.
"This is the final chance. We have similarly felt the meaninglessness of life, similarly lamented limited life."
"Is it not so? The future is far too boring. Humanity is far too boring. Because even if one lives, one can only witness death continuously. No matter what kind of existence, one will face parting by death."
Precisely because he knows all, he sighs at all.
"Just one sentence. Just say yes. Just agree, and I will grant you passage to depart together for the ultimate pole."
This was the last chance.
Ritsuka Fujimaru wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Goetia.
"You see it too, don't you, Fujimaru Ritsuka? Her life has already reached its limit. Since she will die regardless, do you not wish to save Mash alone?"
Ritsuka Fujimaru was struck dumb, losing her voice. She did not say another word, leaving everything to Mash. 』
『 .....』
『 Viewers of Myriad Worlds 』
Everyone was curious and puzzled by this olive branch extended once again.
Why does Goetia insist on inviting Mash?
And what will Mash's choice be? As a homunculus, a girl who should inherently harbor hatred—will she follow Goetia to a new world in this most desperate moment?
Or will she… wait for death here with Ritsuka Fujimaru?
.....
『 But Mash still refused. Her view remained the same as before: the absence of death does not equal happiness. The world she sees is the world of now.
Even if she were to die in the next second of this world, she did not want eternal life in a new world, because only this world belonged to her and Senpai.
"Senpai, can you hold my hand tight one more time?" the girl asked hopefully.
"Yeah!" Just like the day the Control Room exploded, she held Mash's hand once again.
And Goetia hesitated no longer. His pity descended from the heavens alongside the Band of Light of the Third Noble Phantasm!
The Band of Light detonated with a roar; the light that originally shrouded the sky now engulfed the entire WORLD!!!
That magical energy, vast as a sea of stars, seemed poised to devour this entire plane of REALITY!!!
In the center of the grotesque, bewitching Band of Light, terrifying heat converged. Every single beam possessed power rivaling the A-Rank Noble Phantasm, Excalibur!
And now, hundreds of millions of beams converged on a single point!
Contraction, collapse, fusion, ERUPTION—!!!
This monstrous power, sufficient to pierce through stars, was now held in Goetia's HANDS!!!
His figure was like one bathed in the rising sun and the setting twilight!
His magnificent silhouette almost pressed down upon the entire world!
Third Noble Phantasm Deployed—
This is…
The Time of Birth Has Come, He Is the One Who Masters All!
Resistance is impossible… Ritsuka Fujimaru watched this scene in despair.
This time… It's truly over.
But… in the next moment…
A figure leaped past her side. She… stood before her, just as she always had! 』
