Chapter 61: Chance of Victory

[....]

"...." Zenkichi crossed his arms, arching an eyebrow.

[>>>>>]

"....Are you going to answer me or not?" He couldn't take it anymore and demanded it for answers again.

[>>>>>Apologies, user Zenkichi. It seems there was an unexpected interference in your homeworld that allowed the presence of a Demon God Pillar. The exact details are unclear at the moment, but it is likely related to the recent upheaval and chaos caused by the events leading up to the "Tragedy". Would you like me to investigate further?]

"Oh yes, please. Because how, in the flying fuck, did some psychotic teenagers spreading despair throughout the world managed to summon a literal demon from the Bible?" He paused for a moment. "You know what, never mind. That pretty much answers my question but...I thought FGO wasn't part of my world? I mean, I had chatted with the female mc of FGO after all."

[And you're both correct and not at the same time. The answer that you seek is quite simple, that Demon God Pillar in your homeworld belonged there. Like how human history is mostly the same in another world, or how someone you know in your homeworld is about 90% the same in another world. And a Demon God Pillar from another world would also exist in your own, but you simply didn't know. That is simply how the concept of Parallel Worlds or the Multiverse works.]

Zenkichi nodded, taking in the information. It was a lot to process, but it made sense in a way. He was familiar with Parallel Worlds and the Multiverse but he never delved deep into it since, well, obviously. Plus it seemed pretty simple enough with how some movies and TV shows portrayed it.

[Are you satisfied with my answer, user Zenkichi?]

"Y-Yeah. I'm pretty much satisfied." Zenkichi let out a deep sigh of relief, slumping down on the bed. "This just means that the problem was really all from my homeworld....I had thought that a multiversal war had happened or Goetia had decided to somehow tap into the Second Magic. I got really worried."

He clenched his hands.

"I just need that wish....I have to Kill a God is all, yeah." 'Whatever it takes.' Zenkichi thought to himself, determination resolute in his voice.

~Ey, it's a mail~ ~Look in, it's a mail!~

He snapped his eyes wide and hurriedly took out his phone.

[New message ⭐]

Last Master: Hey! Heard you arrived in Valkyrie's world?

Last Master: 🤨

Last Master: What happened? The others and I have tried contacting you for hours and the first thing we heard was you doing your side of the contract between you and Valkyrie's.

Last Master: Please reply when you read this. I'm heading out on a mission soon🥲

Last Master: Oh and btw, I sent some books on Magecraft over. I hope it helps🙏😘

Zenkichi smiled as he read Last Master's message and started to reply back.

Lucky Devil: ....Hey. I got your message 😜

Lucky Devil: It's a long story. But it sums up to my world on the brink of destruction. Everything went to shit and everything's on fire, a literal hell on earth. Then I was given a quest by the....guy behind this group chat and I didn't have a choice but to ask Valkyrie to summon me in her world to fight and win against a God.

Lucky Devil: 😅

Lucky Devil: 🫥

Lucky Devil: Looks like I need to change my username cause I don't feel particularly lucky...

Zenkichi waited for a reply and shrugged when a few minutes passed.

[Ding!]

Last Master: !!!!

Last Master: 😱

Last Master: Eh? Hold up! EEEEEHHHH?!!

Last Master: How did something like that happened in just a day?!

Last Master: ....My condolences for your loss🙇

Last Master: Are you alright?

Lucky Devil: No.

....

In the FGO world.

"Ugh. Stupid, stupid."

Gudako groaned and slumped her face on her pillow, smothering her complicated emotions. She laid completely bare naked on her bed, having just finished a shower; showing off her fair skin, slender figure and perky behind.

She had DMed Lucky Devil out of concern for his safety and curiousity of his situation. After all, it isn't everyday you get to know someone from another world.

She had expected a lot of things...but not the same situation she was facing.

But unlike her however, who still had friends and help from Humanity's Past and Future Heroes, Lucky Devil was alone and didn't have much options by the looks of it. Now he was in another world and had to fight a God for his world's salvation.

Well isn't that very familiar to her?

"....I have to say something!" Gudako then began to type.

.....

Last Master: Ah! I know, I know. I'm so sorry 😫 That was pretty insensitive of me, of course you wouldn't be.

Zenkichi chuckled.

Lucky Devil: It's alright😝

Lucky Devil: Moreover, if there's anyone who can sympathize with me it'd be you

Last Master: ....Right. So, what are you going to do?

Lucky Devil: Fight a God, obviously.

Last Master: I meant, how will you do that? Aren't Gods all powerful and have obvious God-like abilities? 🫠

Lucky Devil: With grit, determination and...my fists ✊ I can win!

Last Master: Oh, haha. Are you going to add clichés like "power of friendship" or some other Deus Ex Machina?

Lucky Devil: ....Well, now that you mentioned it.

Last Master: No....

Lucky Devil: For some reason, either the humans are abnormally physically stronger or the Gods just have around the same physical capabilities as some peak humans, but humanity's champions can match them in fist fights.

Lucky Devil: But Gods are Gods. They have weapons that make nukes seem like toys, and nothing in mankind can ever hope to fight those.

Last Master: And let me guess, humanity found some kind of God Slaying Weapons to use in this Ragnarok? How does that make sense? Why would the Gods just let something like that laying around?

Lucky Devil: Uh, it's nothing like that.

Last Master: Oh. Uh...then what kind of advantage do you guys have on those Gods?

Lucky Devil: We use Valkyries.

Last Master: ....What?😐

Zenkichi then began to explain how Völundr works, the situation of Ragnarok, and what was going on with his homeworld.

Last Master: Holy Crap. And here I thought the Demon God Pillars only existed here.

Lucky Devil: Yeah. It was pretty shocking to me too.

Last Master: Aaah. I want to really help you Lucky Devil but I don't know how, except sending you more books on Magecraft.

Last Master: I wonder if I can ask one of my servants if they'd let me send their noble phantasm to you.

Zenkichi's paused mid texting, his eyes wide in realization.

'Wait, that's it!'

Lucky Devil: That's it! Last Master, do you have Sasaki Kojiro there?

Last Master: Huh? Well, I do. Why? Do you want me to send you his sword? Let me tell you that his sword is just a bit sturdy, it's not something that can help you much in your battle against a God. Moreover, his true noble phantasm is a sword technique.

Lucky Devil: And that's what I want. I want you to video his noble phantasm and his sword mastery. Ask your other servants as well, and only record their noble phantasm

and skills that can be possibly used through physical means. Send them to me afterwards.

Last Master: Huh? Uh, sure. But what are you going to do with them?

Zenkichi smirked, his unruly blond hair quickly transitioned to becoming black and his eyes flashed red with Divine Reflection.

Lucky Devil: I'm going to use them to kill a God.

.....

A bit of a short chapter. I was more focused on another story and then grinded for materials and exp on a couple games.
