The anime has gradually become perverted since the beginning of the game

“Lady Astrea! Did the future me also forget the [Opponent Stop Machine] at Arie's place?”

Conference room.

In front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Yuan stared fixedly at Astrea and asked solemnly.

“That's right.” Astrea maintained a gentle smile.

“Even with the [Opponent Stop Machine], Arie and the others still suffered a total annihilation?”

“Yes.” Astrea still had a smile on her face, as if the ones about to die were not her Familia members.

"Why!?" Lu Yuan's face looked unpleasant.

He didn't understand why Astrea didn't tell him these things.

Could it be that she wanted him to use the [Time Baggage Cloth] to revive Arie and the others?

What was the point of that?

Could it be for him?

This time, he wouldn't change his allegiance, and he would have to go back in time sooner or later, so what's the point of targeting him?

“Well, I've changed my mind... I hope my Familia can retain this memory of light and darkness intertwined; they shouldn't forget their arrogance and carelessness.”

Turning her back to Lu Yuan, she looked out the window, watching the birds chirping noisily in the trees, Astrea said softly.

Just then, the sunlight outside the window shifted its angle, intertwining with the morning dew, scattering around the goddess.

Refracting colorful rays of light around her.

“Is that all?” The expression on Lu Yuan's face wavered.

Is it too cruel to make his Familia members experience such a scene just to teach them a lesson?

Lu Yuan remembered very clearly.

Under the ability of that [Calamity] Juggernaut.

Decapitation, severed hands, being eaten, cremation, being electrocuted to charcoal, and so on.

The girls of the Astrea Familia did not experience ordinary deaths.

With such memories, even if they are saved, doesn't Astrea worry that her Familia members will have psychological shadows in the future?

“Ah, I believe that even the future them would not want to give up this memory.”

Turning back to Lu Yuan, a rare, extremely serious expression appeared on the goddess's face.

“So, I beg you, the hero of all Astrea! Pull them back from hell!”

"..."

"..."

“I am really... defeated by you guys!!! None of the Astrea Familia are worry-free!!!”

Thump!

Quickly opening his pocket, he placed the Anywhere Door on the ground.

Lu Yuan grabbed Alfia's hand and stepped into the Anywhere Door.

“I beg you, also my hero... Lu Yuan...”

————

The other side of the Anywhere Door.

The entire Astrea Familia had fallen into unprecedented despair.

That is, all of them.

But in reality, the only Familia members still alive were Arie, Ryu Lion, Kaguya, and Laila.

All other members were annihilated!

The [Opponent Stop Machine] that Arie had brought was completely damaged and turned into debris on the ground due to Jara's scheme from the [Rudra Familia].

After that, they were slaughtered by a monster called [Calamity] Juggernaut.

They were not opponents.

They were simply not opponents!

Even breaking through its defenses was far beyond their capabilities!

This was completely a one-sided massacre and mockery!

“Run! Lion! You are the only one here who has a chance to escape!” Staring at the motionless, mocking monster Juggernaut in the distance, Kaguya tore off a piece of white cloth with her mouth, wrapped it around the wound on her shoulder, gritted her teeth, endured the pain, and held the hilt of her sword with her remaining hand.

“Lion, find a chance to escape later; the Familia will be entrusted to you from now on. Also, remember to say sorry to Lu Yuan, that important tool, I broke it...”

With damaged armor and blood overflowing from the corner of her mouth, Arie barely supported her body with her sword in both hands and said to Ryu Lion, who was kneeling on the ground.

“Perhaps we should have asked that girl beside Lu Yuan to come along...” Laila, the small person whose eyes were torn apart and plunged into darkness, wiped the blood from her mouth and said dejectedly, “Even with Lu Yuan's help, we wouldn't necessarily be in such a predicament...”

“Yes, but it's too late; that guy should still be sleeping now.” Taking a deep breath, Arie raised her long sword high with both hands and re-assumed her fighting stance.

“I'm sorry, Lion, Kaguya, Laila, and everyone who died. It was my arrogance and carelessness that harmed everyone. If there is a next life, it's best not to know me again...”

“Roaring flames! Flame power at full power!”

Boom!

Explosive flames ignited around Arie.

The intense heat even caused the air around her to distort to a certain extent.

The scarlet flames intertwined with Arie's blood-red hair, making her look like a goddess of fire from mythology.

“Seika Koushou, open!”

An even stronger aura rose from Arie's body, and even a wisp of green smoke rose from under her feet; it was a scene of rocks being scorched.

“Kaguya, Laila! I order you as the leader to create an opportunity for Lion to escape!”

“Understood!”

Whoosh!

Kaguya, holding her sword in one hand, lowered her body and quickly rushed towards Juggernaut. Laila raised the explosive item, the Fire Stone, in her hand and also sprinted towards Juggernaut's direction.

This departure.

Was a determination to die.

“Don't!” Ryu Lion, whose mind was traumatized and nearly collapsed, knelt on the ground and cried out in pain: “Why, why!!!”

“Why doesn't a hero come to save us... Arie, Kaguya, Laila, Celti, everyone...”

She lost the will to escape.

At this moment, Ryu Lion remembered the heroic epic her mother used to read to her.

In the story.

Whenever someone encountered difficulties, those heroes would appear, helping everyone to clear all obstacles and save the world.

Ryu Lion still remembered hiding in her mother's arms as a child and saying to her mother: “Mom, why do we have to be the ones being saved? Can't we become the heroes who save people? Or even the hero's helper, like a lake fairy.”

“Becoming a hero is very difficult. If Lion encounters difficulties in the future, maybe you can pray to heaven, and then a hero will come out to save you~” That's what her mother told her.

“Tch, I don't want to be the one being saved! Lion wants to be a hero! A great hero who saves the world!”

The memory stopped here.

“So, I, from beginning to end, have never had the qualifications to become a hero, not even the qualifications to become a lake fairy...”

“But Mom, I prayed to heaven, but why didn't a hero appear...” Ryu Lion burst into tears.

“Lion! Run!”

“Run!”

“Return to the Familia!”

Bang bang bang.

In a series of three sounds, Arie and the other two were all knocked against the wall by Juggernaut, and fresh blood seeped along each person's body towards the rocks on the ground...

“Aang!!! Roar!!!” A terrible noise came from Juggernaut's mouth.

On the slender head, the blood-colored vertical pupils narrowed slightly.

Ignoring the half-dead Arie and the others.

Whoosh!

The next second.

Juggernaut's slender figure appeared in front of Ryu Lion, and slender, sharp claws slashed fiercely towards Ryu Lion's neck with insane killing intent.

“So there are no heroes in the world at all...” The moment the monster's claws touched her neck, the cold sensation, Ryu Lion's pupils dilated to the maximum, and she murmured to herself.

However, the second before Ryu Lion was about to die.

Buzz!

Silver ripples rippled across the world again...
