"We will be the only victors; this is our new destiny."
....
140. Roland: Now I am also the Herrscher of the End.
As Roland's figure disappeared from Carmen's side, a spatial tunnel appeared next to Carmen's body, and her body was pulled into the Sea of Life.
Then, just as Roland had said, after Carmen's body entered the Sea of Life, Tiamat began to try to awaken her.
However, she won't be awakened immediately, so Carmen can continue her beautiful dream for a while longer.
Deep within the Sea of Life, beside Tiamat, a cocoon the size of a person, resembling a heart, throbbed continuously after the power of the Herrscher of Binding merged into it.
In this reaction, light flickers rhythmically inside the cocoon.
Each time the light shines, it seems as if a person's shadow can be seen inside the cocoon in the hazy light.
When the cocoon throbbed for the twelfth time and the light inside shone again, the throbbing stopped, but the light didn't go out—two golden lights suddenly shone at the head of the hazy black shadow, as if the being inside had finally opened its eyes.
This scene is terrifying.
But Tiamat was very happy to see it.
She slowly walked to the cocoon, gently stroking its shell with one hand, and spoke softly in her incredibly gentle voice.
"You're awake... Good morning, Roland."
Tiamat began cultivating the Cocoon of Ending in the Sea of Life long ago.
However, due to the unique nature of the Cocoon of the End, Tiamat cannot create it out of thin air. Therefore, she needs to collect the cores, or rather, the powers, of other Herrschers, and then Tiamat combines these powers together to nurture it. In addition, she uses her Creation Power, which represents the beginning, to create the Cocoon of the End.
Roland wasn't in the cocoon from the beginning.
It was only after he confirmed that the fight against the Herrscher of the End was officially on the agenda that he used Alicia's power as the Herrscher of Origin to link himself with the Cocoon of the End.
Under such circumstances, the Cocoon of the End will directly transform into Roland's Herrscher Core.
Then, combined with Roland's power of the end.
Thus, the Lawbringer of the End was born.
Therefore, after the power of the Law of Restraint was incorporated into the Cocoon of the End, Roland's side was officially formed.
He became the Herrscher of the End earlier than the one who was still gradually awakening on the moon!
Moreover, he is different from the other party.
Although the other party is called the Herald of the End, it is actually just a humanoid tool of the Cocoon of the End. It doesn't even have its own will and is just a manifestation of a trial.
But Roland is the master of this final cocoon.
Therefore, even if the powers of both sides are similar in this respect, they are fundamentally different.
"It seems you've succeeded. At least you've woken up from your dream, and what's happening outside is no longer a manifestation of your dream."
When Roland and Tiamat emerged from the Sea of Life, Ryougi Shiki stood guard outside.
Seeing that the two of them had come out, she unlocked the power of a one-person playground, revealing her existence.
"Yes, it's a success, so our plan in this world has finally entered its final stage."
Upon hearing Roland's words, Ryougi Shiki's predatory eyes once again revealed their aggressiveness, and a smile appeared on her lips.
"Things here are coming to an end, that's really good news—although traveling to another world is certainly exciting, after staying here for a while, I still feel more comfortable at home."
"Uh-huh."
Ryougi Shiki said this, and Tiamat nodded repeatedly.
Roland knew very well that they weren't talking about the gods' headquarters in the virtual world, but rather the apartment they lived in together in the Type-Moon world.
"If that's the case, then we can't let the Type-Moon world go either."
Roland had invested in the former director of the Type-Moon universe a long time ago, and the Chaldea project has been proceeding as scheduled.
After the Chaldea project succeeds, Roland plans to create Lostbelts in Britain, thereby using the Hollow World to absorb this part of history and fulfill Artoria's wish.
If Britain can become a Lostbelt and be swallowed by the Hollow World, then their modern world might not be unable to do the same.
The only problem is that Roland isn't sure how the modern world can become a Lostbelt... After all, he has changed a lot of things in the modern world, but in reality, the modern world still doesn't seem to be turning into a Lostbelt.
This might be related to Gaia, Alaya, and other origins?
Hmm... Even if it has nothing to do with the three of them, they should still have some idea of how to turn the modern world into an Lostbelt.
In that case, I'll have to talk to them when I get back—and I'll also tell them about the Lostbelts of Britain. After all, even if they say they'll give me the green light, it's never good to not give them a heads-up beforehand.
Even after speaking with Alaya, Roland still didn't really feel his place among the three of them.
As Roland pondered this, he chatted idly with Ryougi Shiki and Tiamat.
They walked out of the Sea of Life area while chatting, and soon they saw Alicia and... Carmen, who had been awakened.
“She had woken up earlier, and then she said she wanted to apologize to Ellie, so I let her out.”
Tiamat said this, and Roland nodded, then ended the conversation about the Type-Moon world and walked towards where the two of them were.
"Roland...it looks like you succeeded."
Alicia saw Roland and the others and was about to greet them, but after seeing Roland, her attention was clearly diverted to other things.
She walked up to Roland, tapped his shoulder with her finger, looked him up and down, and poked him around, showing great curiosity about the structure of his body.
After all, she knew it.
The one on the moon hasn't fully awakened yet, but Roland is already the Herrscher of the End.
Carmen was somewhat surprised to see Alicia like this.
However, when she looked at Roland, there was a strange look in her eyes.
She's a little shy!
After all, she maintained her rationality well, so she still remembered what happened when she became a Herrscher.
She's not as extreme now, so when she thinks about her past state, she feels a bit ashamed, like she's revisiting her embarrassing past as a teenager!
Alicia noticed Carmen's reaction. Since they had been talking about this before, she knew exactly what Carmen was thinking. So she went straight to Carmen's side and poked Carmen's face with her finger.
"Don't be shy. Everyone has immature moments. I actually envy you. I want to be a child again, it's so cute!"
Hearing Alicia say this, Carmen knew very well that if she continued to be shy, Alicia would only intensify her efforts.
So she simply breathed a sigh of relief and chose to go along with Alicia.
"Indeed, people are somewhat endearing when they are naive."
Hearing their conversation, Ryougi Shiki immediately thought of Root Shiki, which made her eye twitch.
Tiamat, on the other hand, hardly participated in topics she didn't understand. She simply stayed by Roland's side, silently watching everything unfold.
On the contrary, Roland's mind wandered to something even stranger.
Whenever he heard Carmen say that people are somewhat endearing when they're naive, an image of a wasteland strewn with swords would subconsciously flash through his mind...
Then, Archer, with a contorted face, roared at Shirou Emiya on the wasteland.
Let them drown in their own ideals!
Hmm...cute?
Roland thought this but didn't say it aloud. He simply joined the conversation and walked towards his office with them while chatting.
During this process, Roland also used the God Group Communication to contact the other members of Anti-Entropy and asked them to gather in his office—and also to ask them to invite Su Heling.
Su, Ling, Carmen.
Sue's achievements are almost complete. Rin and Carmen are Herrschers, which are miraculous creations in this world, especially after they became like this, able to activate Herrscher powers with human will—this is a rather heaven-defying achievement.
Therefore, all three of them were qualified to join the God Group.
These are three areas for improvement.
Moreover, the current God Group has 37 members. With these three, the God Group will officially reach 40 members, and the bonus to the center will be upgraded to Lv9!
We'll use one enhancement point to strengthen gravity manipulation and two to enhance Dragon's Remnant.
Roland was somewhat concerned about the dragon's remnant that had transformed into a three-headed dragon's shadow... after all, his simulated star map shouldn't be Avesta or a dualistic theory of good and evil...
After all, his skills are said to be extraction, but in reality they all come from his own simulated star creation map.
Moreover, the fact that he drew so many shadow-related skills means that his simulated star chart is likely related to shadows.
With these two premises in mind, the image of the three-headed dragon becomes quite interesting.
He had already gained a certain level of control over his simulated star chart, so after his skills were enhanced to +8, he could vaguely sense that +10, like +7, should also be a watershed moment.
so...
He will use one enhancement point to strengthen gravity manipulation, and then use two enhancement points to enhance Dragon's Remnant to +10.
He wanted to see if, after his Dragon Remnant advanced further, it would have some connection with Azdaka!
