At this precise moment, the Heroic Spirits and Mages across all worlds were utterly astonished by the scene unfolding before them.
They had not expected, not in the slightest, that reinforcements would arrive in such a dire crisis!
Instantly, the audience could not suppress their urge to discuss the turn of events.
〜In the Worldline of ██████ Chaldea〜
Gazing at the mysterious figure on the screen, Fujimaru Ritsuka could not help but furrow his brow.
"What is going on? That mysterious person gives me a familiar feeling…"
Ritsuka's gaze remained fixed on the figure of Goetia on the screen.
He didn't know why he felt such a sense of familiarity from that enigmatic silhouette.
This feeling… it was just like the Doctor!
"But that shouldn't be possible…"
In his opinion, the Doctor was merely logistical support personnel; he didn't possess such immense power.
How could he possibly appear within a Lostbelt and help them block such a meteor?
In reality, the man on the screen was indeed not the Doctor from Fujimaru Ritsuka's memories.
It was Goetia. The King of Humans, GOETIA…!!!
However, it was clear that Ritsuka was not yet aware of this fact.

At this moment, within the group chat, the audience could no longer hold back their voices of discussion.
〜Viewer's Chat Room〜
[ Cu Chulainn (Lancer): Eh!? Who on earth is that guy? Why would he appear there… ]
[ Olga Marie Animusphere: Phew… Thank goodness. Although I don't know the true identity of that mysterious person, his intervention came just in time. And I truly never expected someone could block that celestial magecraft so easily. I wonder who he really is? ]
[ Emiya Kiritsugu: Regardless of who he is, since he chose to act here, it means he is on the side of Pan-Human History. Still, it is incredibly surprising. To be able to make that Kirschtaria Wodime show such an expression—it seems this mysterious man's identity is far from simple. ]
[ Tohsaka Rin: It looks like everything should be fine now, right? ]
[ .....]
Seeing this scene unfold, all the spectators let out a collective sigh of relief!
Simultaneously, the Heroic Spirits and Mages of every world were consumed by curiosity.
Who exactly was the mysterious person on the screen?
While the audience buzzed with speculation, the content on the screen continued to play.
『 Witnessing the scene before him, the mysterious cloaked man could not help but let out a sigh.
"Sigh… Honestly. To reach this point, only to make me waste a little more effort…" Goetia had originally not intended to intervene.
After all, he had only one goal all along: to investigate the truth of the Lostbelts!
But for some reason, seeing this scene, he couldn't stop himself from acting…
Thus, he let out a voice of surprise at this juncture.
"This was an unexpected action. So, this means that humanity—that thing—really is…"
On the other side, Kirschtaria Wodime gazed at the man before him, momentarily lost in thought.
When he regained his composure, hearing those words, he couldn't help but voice a retort of his own.
"…That should be my line. You must be the mage of unknown identity aiding people across various Lostbelts… No, perhaps I should call you a Man of Chaldea! Why have you appeared here?"
Looking at this existence, both familiar and strange, countless thoughts swirled within Kirschtaria Wodime's heart.
For a moment, he actually ceased his attack.
Instead, he began to question the mysterious man before him.
"You shouldn't have any reason to help Chaldea, right?"
He knew very well that this individual should have no motive to assist Chaldea; his goal was merely the investigation and assessment of the Lostbelts.
Choosing to intervene at a time like this was truly outside of his calculations…
Hearing this interrogation, even the King of Humans, Goetia, paused for a moment, slightly stunned.
Just then, a gust of wind blew past, fluttering the mysterious man's cloak.
Revealing a shade of hair that the audience knew all too well! 』
『 .....』
Upon seeing this, all the spectators finally realized the truth.
Wasn't that familiar hair color the same as the Doctor who had appeared in the videos before?
The Doctor of Chaldea…?!
To possess combat capabilities of this level, and to appear on the screen like this…
A wave of confusion involuntarily surfaced in the minds of all the viewers!
No, it could also be someone with the same hair color.
Just as the audience was speculating, the content on the screen continued to play.
.....
『 After hearing those words, Goetia remained silent for a moment.
"I—No, what a strange thing to say, Kirschtaria Wodime. Do I need a reason to help Chaldea?"
The righteous and confident voice echoed. Hearing this tone…
Even the leader of the A-Team, Kirschtaria Wodime, revealed a helpless expression at this moment.
"That really is… a matter-of-fact answer. Doctor… I suppose I can consider this a one-time lapse in judgment." 』
『 .....』
As these words fell, the Heroic Spirits and Mages across all worlds finally reacted!
It seemed this guy really was the Doctor they knew…
But why would he appear on the screen possessing such a level of combat power?
.....
〜In the Inner Sea of the planet, in the furthest tower〜
Merlin watched everything on the screen and raised an eyebrow.
"Romani… No, it is clearly a different existence."
Unlike the other spectators, possessing Clairvoyance allowed him to see the truth instantly.
Naturally, he saw at a glance that this was not the Chaldean Doctor—Romani Archaman—whom the audience was so familiar with!?
But rather some similar existence. Although he didn't know why, he hadn't expected him to choose to intervene.
"If it's him, then Chaldea and Fujimaru Ritsuka should be fine…"
After all, as the mastermind behind the Incineration of Humanity, his strength was naturally extraordinary.
However, how should one put it? Seeing this scene, his heart was filled with emotion.
Thinking of Romani's eventual fate, his feelings at this moment were incredibly complex.

〜In the Worldline of ██████ Chaldea〜
Meanwhile, everyone's faces showed expressions of extreme surprise!
They had absolutely never imagined that one day they would see their familiar Doctor displaying such divine might on this screen.
"Doctor…? But he doesn't have any powerful combat abilities."
Mash uttered a voice filled with utter surprise.
On the other side, Da Vinci saw through the nuances. As the most familiar with Dr. Roman, Da Vinci naturally recognized it at a glance.
"No, that isn't Romani… but some existence possessing his appearance."
Da Vinci couldn't help but voice her observation at this moment.
—
And at this very moment, the group chat was flooded with messages.
〜Viewer's Chat Room〜
[ Olga Marie Animusphere: ?? How is that possible? Am I seeing things… Romani, someone who seemed so slovenly before, actually possesses such powerful strength? Could it be he was hiding something? ]
[ Romani Archaman: No such thing. I'm just an ordinary, unremarkable doctor. I don't have that kind of power. Clearly, the 'Doctor' on the screen isn't me, right? ]
[ Sherlock Holmes (Ruler): Although it can indeed be observed that the individual is not the same existence as you, it feels like the mysteries are only multiplying. The truth of the Lostbelts, and that mysterious man… it feels like there are too many points that need discussion. ]
[ Waver Velvet: Regardless of who the mysterious person on the screen really is, since he chose to act at this moment, it means he is an ally, correct? We should be able to rest easy. ]
[ Mordred (Saber): In any case, to be able to resolve such powerful magecraft so easily, this guy is definitely not simple. Since he's willing to step in, there shouldn't be any problems. ]
[ .....]
At this moment, a sense of curiosity about the subsequent developments welled up in everyone's hearts.
Accompanying the buzzing discussions of the audience, the content on the screen continued to play.
『 The King of Humans, Goetia, nodded upon hearing those words.
"Of course! Kirschtaria Wodime! You were once saved from the abyss of death by the Alien God."
"Then… it isn't excessive for them to be saved from the abyss of death once as well, is it? Don't you think that makes you equals?"
Hearing this, even Kirschtaria Wodime revealed a complex expression.
Then he nodded and continued.
"I see. Indeed, that is fair. You are as eloquent as ever. Although I would very much like to ignore you and continue my pursuit, if I did that, I would have to fight you. That would be a second battle, wouldn't it? I have no choice but to avoid that…"
Although he wanted to continue the fight, the price to pay for that would be far too great.
To exert that kind of power, even he had a limit on the number of times he could do it.
And if it were the King of Humans, Goetia, then without a doubt, he would waste one of his precious uses.
Thinking this way, he couldn't help but sigh, then agreed to the other party's conditions.
"Very well. I will do it out of respect for you, who walked ahead on the stage."
As these words fell, the magical energy around his body gradually dissipated, and he revealed a smile.
"The battle is over. Chaldea has survived once again. For the sake of this outcome, can you let me go?"
"Hmph. I also want to avoid troublesome matters. Why don't we both save ourselves the effort? If you withdraw, I will also depart. Not just from now, but undoubtedly, from this Lostbelt entirely."
Hearing this voice, Kirschtaria Wodime almost couldn't hold back his reaction.
Good heavens, getting something for nothing, is it?
He knew very well that the other party's goal was to investigate the Lostbelt, and now that the entire Lostbelt had been thoroughly investigated…
Naturally, there was no value in staying…
And yet, he actually planned to use such an excuse to make him leave this place.
How should one say it? There was still quite a gap between him and the Doctor in his memories.
"You really have the nerve to say that. Farewell, Doctor…"
"We probably won't meet again. Let me give you a piece of advice: you really aren't very good at imitating others."
With these words, Kirschtaria Wodime's figure vanished from the spot, and simultaneously, the entire video began to dim. 』
『 .....』
Watching the screen fade to black, the entire audience fell into complete silence.
Whether it was Kirschtaria Wodime's strength or the appearance of that mysterious man…
In this moment, all the spectators couldn't help but break into discussion.
In the Sixth Singularity of the Knights of the Round Table—
Sherlock Holmes frowned as he watched the screen go dark.
Even the renowned detective, at this moment, found his mind filled with endless thoughts.
However, he had actually anticipated these things regarding the Lostbelts long ago.
After all, he had previously consulted Tri-Hermes and reviewed quite a few future events.
The Alien God, the Bleaching of Human Order, the Lostbelts…
"It feels like Human Order is truly fraught with disasters. However, despite reviewing so much data, there are still quite a few doubts."
At this moment, even this famous detective felt an endless surge of questions in his heart.
That Kirschtaria Wodime possessed such powerful strength yet stood on the side of the Alien God. And what exactly was the King of Humans, Goetia, investigating?
"It feels like things are getting more and more complicated…"

〜Viewer's Chat Room〜
[ Emiya Shirou: The amount of information in this video was a bit huge. That Kirschtaria Wodime's strength is really something else! ]
[ Cu Chulainn (Lancer): Although he is an extremely powerful opponent, he isn't invincible. Judging by how the screen ended, there must be something he's wary of. But still, wielding such powerful force… if there were no restrictions, it would be too broken. ]
[ Jeanne d'Arc (Ruler): It feels like the mysteries are increasing. The true identity of that mysterious man, the truth of the Lostbelts, the Alien God… ]
[ Olga Marie Animusphere: Thinking about how many crises lie in the future, the road ahead feels bleak. ]
[ .....]
At this moment, the audience discussed fervently!
Undoubtedly, this was a video containing a massive amount of information.
Just as the audience was buzzing with discussion, a brand new video was being prepared.
And as Gu Changsheng clicked on the new video, the screen in the sky quietly lit up again.
Immediately attracting the gaze of all the spectators!
Under the watchful eyes of the entire audience, a new title appeared in everyone's field of vision.
〖 THE FIRST EMPEROR WHOSE ACHIEVEMENTS SURPASS THE THREE SOVEREIGNS AND WHOSE VIRTUE EXCEEDS THE FIVE EMPERORS! THE ULTIMATE IMMORTAL WHO BUILT THE UNIVERSAL GREAT WALL!!! 〗
