Akutagawa's Life as a Savior

In the closed and dimly lit library, a fierce battle is going on on the video. Saber's sword spirit is criss-crossing and Lancer's is pressing every step of the way. Any obstacles the two pass by are easily smashed, and the ground is shaped like plasticine at will. .This is a superb skill that has been honed to the extreme, and the fighting brilliance that transcends the age shines. It is a miracle that the invincible heroes of different eras are gathered together in the little Fuyuki!

The brilliance of the collision of different beliefs, the sword in the hands of the fighters, the purest power, to determine the final winner!

Akutagawa Ryunosuke was sitting upright, but when he looked closely, he could find his body trembling slightly.This was the second time he watched this video, and his whole body was ignited by the desire to fight.

Akutagawa's hand was tightly gripping the handle of the knife, the desire to fight was burning.Huh, he took a deep breath, and the air flow was turbulent. He couldn't help but want to confront such a strong man, but reason suppressed him, and there was no chance of winning at present.

Eager for power, Akutagawa raised his hands. These pale and graceful hands possess unimaginable power.This kind of power is the power of uninterrupted hard training day and night, the condensation of countless blood and sweat, and the power that has been held tightly in the hand after countless births and deaths.

Power is admirable, it doesn't need any meaning attached to it, it is enough to dazzle.Longing for power, admiring power, overcoming all difficulties for power.Power itself is the most desirable thing in the world.

"If my Rashomon can still be used..." Akutagawa couldn't help mumbling while looking at his hand.Akutagawa is confident that his sword skills are not weaker than others, and there are ways to make up for the gap in physical strength, but the existence of the treasure means that he cannot stand shoulder to shoulder with physical strength alone, and the opponent's skills do not allow him to compete with ordinary knives.

Or is it because he is too weak, if he is strong enough, how can he limit his performance because of weapons?

It would have been nice if Rashomon was still there, Akutagawa once again felt great regret, Rashomon could make up for the flaws in his weapon, and with a weapon that could counter him, he could fight the heroic spirit with dignity.The boldness of the king of conquests and the nobility of the king of knights are unparalleled in the world.

But isn't it an admission of defeat if you have this kind of thinking?If you lose your strength, practice your sword skills hard, and if you lose your arm, replace it with another one. Akutagawa has always used this method to demand himself.

But there is always a time when there is really nothing you can do.

If I have the power to calm everything, if I can kill all enemies, can I refuse all loss and parting?Akutagawa thought of his teacher, the teacher who willfully left without saying goodbye, abandoned him and left alone, the teacher who always treated him contemptuously.He thought of a pair of eyes again, those eyes that were always full of enthusiasm and vigor, but filled with infinite regret and sadness at the last moment.What is he trying to tell me?

But the sorrow of the weak is unacceptable, all this is my fault, it is my fault that I am not strong enough.Shame burns Akutagawa Ryunosuke's heart, and this flame has always burned him in his heart, and it has never been extinguished since he was a child, whipping him like a whip and urging him to move forward.

"What if you can still use Rashomon?" A careless voice suddenly emerged from the empty room.

With a bang, Akutagawa Ryunosuke's sword was out of its sheath, and Akutagawa couldn't control his murderous aura due to his agitated mood, but he stopped before reaching the victim's vital point.Because it is the hero king Gilgamesh.

The body of the King of Heroes was outlined from the invisible void. This miraculous scene made Ryunosuke Akutagawa in amazement. He retracted his knife and sheathed it, "I have offended you. Why did the King of Heroes come here?"

"I heard from Kirei that you have something to ask me." The King of Heroes looked at Akutagawa with interesting eyes, "It just so happens that you are watching the battle video, this Holy Grail War is quite interesting, although there are some people who overstep, but you can barely see it .Tell me, seeing such a battle, what are you thinking?"

Akutagawa looked away coldly, "I have no idea, I just want to have a hearty battle with them. It is inevitable to regret not fighting when you meet such a hero. However, I have promised my sister that I will definitely go back alive to see you." she."

The King of Heroes looked at Akutagawa with great interest, "Do wild dogs also have concerns? So, if you can use supernatural powers, you have the confidence to fight Heroic Spirits?"

Akutagawa nodded calmly, but with unquestionable confidence, "Even if I am flesh and blood, as long as I have matching weapons in my hands, I don't think I will lose to them."

"You have madness and backbone, so I will give you two choices. One is that I will give you a treasure that is not inferior to the sword of the oath of victory, as long as you give me a wonderful enough battle , I will reward you with my own reward."

"The second is to make up for your shortcomings by yourself. Trigger your own miracles and forcibly awaken your unawakened abilities. But this method is very risky, and you are most likely to die suddenly on the spot. The most important thing is that this ability You only need to experience a few more worlds to awaken naturally."

"How about it, which one do you choose? If you just want to fight, this king's treasure will never lose to anyone, and this king can keep your life safe. If you choose the second one, even if you risk your life, it's just Gain abilities a short time in advance. But to you, the agent, time is the least valuable thing."

The hero king looked at Akutagawa with a half-smile, as if he was sure of what he would choose.

"Choose the second one." Akutagawa replied without hesitation.

"Hmph, hahahaha," the King of Heroes laughed loudly, "Very good, I appreciate you more and more."

He looked at Akutagawa Ryunosuke with admiration, as if looking at a beloved collection. "Here you are," he tossed a scabbard without a sword, "this is the 'distant utopia', which can make people immortal, but can't do anything about the brain death caused by contact with the root, so you will become a living dead."

Akutagawa took the scabbard without any hesitation, staring at the King of Heroes with big dark eyes, waiting for his next operation.

The King of Heroes explained: "When you come to this world, you must pass through the root outside the world. That is to say, you have fulfilled the long-cherished wish of a magician from the very beginning - to reach the root. But because the miracle of the root is too large, your The brain can't understand this miracle, and forgets it in order to protect itself. Now what I want to do is to let you reach the root again when you are on the verge of death. As long as you establish contact with the root, you will awaken your own ability. When you come back to consciousness, you become one with the roots of this world."

"I won't fail." Akutagawa said firmly, the determination in his eyes made the King of Heroes laugh again.

"Hahaha, very good, then you have to redouble your efforts. After all, the guy who fails the king's expectations can only die." The hero king's smile became cold.

A terrifying weapon appeared out of thin air and pierced Akutagawa's chest from top to bottom. Akutagawa didn't dodge, took a step back with the scabbard in his hand, and fell to the ground.The light of the scabbard also began to flicker, and the power to save people and the power to kill began to fight with the body as the battlefield.

Root, what is root?The King of Heroes said that I have reached the root. Could it be that incomprehensible experience? Akutagawa ignored the severe pain in his body and tried to go back to the dream-like state.

The feedback given by the brain is amazing. I seem to be slowly building up the concept of myself. Akutagawa thought intermittently. After working hard for a long time, he finally started to think simply and slowly about the simple program he just wrote. This also seems to be countless concepts and countless thoughts Insignificant little change.

Suddenly Akutagawa woke up, he was still swimming in the origin of all things, but his thinking became independent, what about my body?He thought vaguely, and began to collect all the fragments that might belong to him.

It is difficult to find a needle in a haystack, and it is even more difficult to find the point that belongs to a person from the origin of all things. Fortunately, he does not have the concepts of giving up and being tired now.As he collected more and more fragments, he gradually realized that he was Ryunosuke Akutagawa and did not belong to this world.In a distant place, Akutagawa Ryunosuke has a destiny and obsession that must be fulfilled.

It seemed that he had finally poked his head out of the suffocating sea, and he had his own thoughts.The ultimate knowledge that was originally integrated receded like a tide, and he withdrew from the realm of being one with all things, omniscient and omnipotent.But contact with the indescribable mysteries of the world still left something for Akutagawa.

"It seems to be successful." The voice of the King of Heroes came from not far away, waking him up from his obsession.Akutagawa looked back, and the King of Heroes was holding a gamepad, concentrating on playing on the TV brought from nowhere.

The game is still in the style of the 80s, which seems outdated to Akutagawa, but the King of Heroes plays it with gusto, if we can meet each other again, next time I will bring him some newer video games.

The King of Heroes who is single-minded and dual-purpose still has room to speak in the fierce game battle, "Don't stare at me all the time, you still can't control the activation of abilities freely, my rank is too high, you force to understand the fate of things you can't understand It's brain necrosis. Even if you reach the root several times, it still needs a period of growth."

He spoke in time, Akutagawa forcibly moved away the eyes that were firmly glued to him, closed his eyes, feeling dizzy in his brain.At this time, he found that his body was intact after waking up, which can only be done by the King of Heroes.Akutagawa didn't say anything, just memorized it silently.

"It doesn't matter, you just possessed this ability. With the control of the ability and the development of your brain, you will become stronger and stronger. You don't need to tell me what your ability is. The origin of a person is a secret. Your ability only needs to be It's enough for you to know."

Akutagawa ignored him, "The origin of the next is 'swallow', which is quite consistent with the supernatural ability of the next. Is it really a greedy, empty and insatiable beast?"

The King of Heroes glanced at him sideways, and cast precious attention from the game, "Don't be stupid, your origin is your source, and what kind of person you grow up to be is your own choice. Is this king great because of his origin? "

"However, the supernatural power in your world is indeed very interesting. You should have discovered it after traveling through two worlds. It is not something that ordinary people should possess."

Akutagawa remained silent, his attitude was closer to acquiescence.

"Normal ability is not like what you describe. Ability has levels, strengths and weaknesses, and it still obeys the laws of nature. It's like magic. Magic with a low level and a high level are covered by magic, and those of different nature will be offset. The same goes for different environments. The magic will be manifested differently."

"But supernatural powers are not like this. They don't need to be cultivated, and they don't need to be tempered to become stronger. The essence of supernatural powers is more like the rules of existence. They can be activated when they meet the conditions. The supernatural powers become stronger by training themselves. Controlling power, because supernatural power is innate, it is the ability given to you by that world, and the law does not need to become stronger."

"So your supernatural ability cannot be used in another world, because the rules of the other world are different, and there is no right to use the laws given to humans."

"But correspondingly, supernatural powers help you understand your essence. This is the greatest benefit of your world. Giving laws to human beings and evolving them into different supernatural powers according to human characteristics. What is the difference between this and gods? Understand yourself The essence of it is an indispensable step on the road to becoming stronger."

Gilgamesh finished his tirade, turned his attention back to the video game, and prepared to end his conversation with Akutagawa.

"Now that you have connected to the root, the next thing to do is to strengthen the connection with the root and strengthen your understanding of everything. The ability to exert your ability is based on understanding, and only with understanding can you devour it."

"Okay, you go to get familiar with your abilities, and by the way, get proficient in the process of connecting to the root. When you arrive in a different world, there will be no one to help you."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke smiled sincerely, and the atmosphere in the room became milder at some point, "Yes, so I am really grateful to His Majesty the King of Heroes. If there is anything I need to do, please feel free to speak up, Your Majesty Do not hesitate to die."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke is a ruthless man who keeps his promises. He is very cautious about his promises, but he is also very good at hitting straight balls.The King of Heroes gave him a very cordial feeling, besides, such help was too precious to repay.He already classified the King of Heroes as a companion in his heart.

Gilgamesh didn't turn his head back, "A mere reward is nothing to worry about. Does this king need someone to reward you? Don't talk big, kid"

Akutagawa didn't refute, the promise was made to himself, it doesn't matter what others think.He stood up and bid farewell to the King of Heroes, "Then I will practice on my own, please call me before you act."

The King of Heroes sneered and watched him walk out of the room without saying anything.
