[Fate/Apocrypha World - Black Faction Camp]
"Oh? It's actually an alchemist. Finally, someone I'm familiar with this time!"
As a legendary alchemist, Avicebron could be considered top-tier in the art of alchemy!
The various overpowered individuals who had appeared previously had completely crushed her spirit. She never expected people from other worlds to be so terrifying... Now that an alchemist had appeared, she could finally comment and comfort her fragile heart...
And it wasn't just her...
Every True Ancestor in this world felt their own insignificance...
Those beings who clamored about challenging the strong all day had all gone quiet, fearing a punch from those terrifying entities...
After all, they now knew there were higher-dimensional existences in the world!
[The World of Arifureta]
"Nagumo... Hajime? No way..."
Kaori, who had been searching for traces of Nagumo Hajime, kept rubbing her eyes, afraid she was seeing things.
After confirming it was real, tears of excitement welled in her eyes. So he really wasn't dead! That was wonderful!
But why hadn't he returned? Where had he been all this time?...
Countless questions flooded her mind...
However, while some rejoiced, others despaired. The person who had framed Nagumo Hajime before was scared out of his wits.
"Why?! That loser isn't dead!"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Even if he wasn't dead, why would he, an alchemist, be chosen by the light screen?
Jealousy erupted in his heart all at once. He wanted to tear Nagumo Hajime to shreds!
What use could a mere alchemist be? Nothing but a burden!
Nagumo Hajime's classmates were all stunned. Those who thought he was dead now saw him chosen in the blink of an eye...
People from the "Glory of Tianzhihe" were speechless. Wasn't he supposed to be the Hero?
Why wasn't he chosen, but Nagumo was?
Though confused, they weren't too jealous either...
[Within the Water Capital]
Nagumo Hajime lay helplessly on the ground. Why was this exposed so suddenly?...
He had to leave quickly to avoid being targeted by those so-called "gods"...
Not only was he panicked, but the god of this world, Ehit, was even more so.
Since the incidents of god-slaying in several worlds...
He had been wondering if the otherworlders he summoned would come back to deal with him!
Now it seemed it was entirely possible!
[Screen Begins]
[In a school classroom...]
[A group of people were fighting. Several boys were bullying a young man, and a girl with long black hair scolded their behavior...]
[But at that moment, a massive magic circle appeared on the ground...]
[Under its light, everyone was transported to another world called Tortus...]
[They were terrified upon arrival, but fortunately, the people around them were relatively normal humans...]
[Under the guidance of people from that world, the students in this class quickly awakened to various professions...]
[The most popular person in the class, Amanogawa Kouki, became the Hero...]
[Nagumo Hajime, who had been bullied before, awakened the humble profession of Synergist, making others look down on him even more...]
[But he didn't give up. Even so, he kept striving...]
[Screen Ends]
Avicebron: "I can't stand this! Synergist is inconspicuous?!"
Did these people from another world have any brains? Such a powerful ability was considered inconspicuous?!
As an alchemist, he was hailed as a sage in his time!
No, the more he thought about it, the angrier he got!
"Homuculi, hit these idiots for me!"
Homuculi: "Reporting... Punishment by light screen likely... Unable to attack..."
"If you want to blast it, do it yourself. Aren't you a great alchemist?"
"Isn't that a bit difficult?"
Frankenstein teleported behind Nine Lives, picked him up, and was about to throw him at the light screen...
Avicebron: "I was wrong... I was wrong..."
He quickly gave up. Who dared to touch the light screen these days if they valued their life?
[Screen Continues]
[To conquer the Great Orcus Labyrinth, the Knight Captain led the students to the 20th floor!]
[Along the way, Kaori discovered glowing ore...]
[Among them, Hiyama Daisuke, who had been bullying Nagumo Hajime, touched it out of greed for the glowing ore...]
[However, the ore emitted a brilliant light, teleporting everyone from the 20th floor to the 65th floor...]
[Screen Ends]
Kazuma: "Oh, this guy is a walking disaster!"
He hated bullies like this the most!
Taking pleasure in bullying the weak—such a person wasn't even fit to become an undead!
Jotaro Kujo: "As a 17-year-old high school student, I will not forgive Hiyama Daisuke's actions!"
Given the chance, he'd definitely use his fists to teach him what real pain was!
[The World of From Commonplace to World's Strongest]
Within the Knight Order, Hiyama Daisuke's face was pale, his body trembling uncontrollably. Would he be exposed?
If exposed, he'd have no place here...
Driven by fear, he wanted to flee, but didn't dare to run alone...
[On Screen]
[A large-scale magic circle appeared before the labyrinth...]
[Countless skeleton soldiers emerged...]
[Immediately after, a massive Triceratops, a Behemoth, appeared behind the skeleton soldiers...]
[The Knight Captain realized this was a trap. They had to get out quickly!]
[To hold back the Behemoth, Nagumo Hajime stayed behind alone, using his Synergist skills to make the ground surge continuously...]
[This prevented the Behemoth from charging out immediately...]
[Everyone fled to the staircase. Under the Captain's command, they fired energy bullets, bombarding the Behemoth...]
[However, one person in the crowd sneered sinisterly, deliberately altering the trajectory of a magic bullet to strike near Nagumo Hajime's feet...]
[It wasn't until he fell that he understood...]
[Why would his former companion want to kill him?...]
[Screen Ends]
Viewers: "This guy doesn't deserve to be a companion!"
"I never expected someone like this among us. Truly frightening..."
"Could we also be attacked by him? Such scum shouldn't be kept around..."
Aiko: "Why?... You're all classmates!"
She felt chills all over. Why would classmates kill each other? Was her education failing?...
Kaori: "Hajime... I didn't protect you..."
She never imagined it was a classmate who attacked Nagumo. She would never let this person go!
A figure quickly flashed in her mind—Hiyama!
Only that guy had been leading the bullying against Nagumo!
Meld's expression was extremely grim. He never expected someone would actually try to kill a companion!
Having such a person in the Knight Order was simply ruinous!
"Investigate immediately!"
He issued the order at once. Such scum must not be allowed to escape!
[In the Water Capital]
A terrifying aura erupted from Yue. Her crimson eyes radiated cold murderous intent, engulfing the entire room!
"Yue! Calm down!"
Nagumo Hajime began wiping sweat from his brow. He didn't want to be exposed yet...
"This isn't a bad thing. If I hadn't been framed, I wouldn't have met you..."
Yue gradually calmed, but the murderous intent in her eyes didn't didiminish.
The one who framed Hajime must die!
[On Screen]
[Nagumo Hajime fell to a lower floor. He slowly opened his eyes, looking at an unfamiliar ceiling. A cold, damp sensation washed over him...]
[He quickly got up to check his condition. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries...]
[The top priority now was to return to the upper floors...]
[He kept checking his surroundings until he saw a white rabbit ahead...]
[Screen Ends]
Natsuki Subaru: "Damn it! A rabbit again! This one can't be the same type as the Great Rabbit, can it?..."
Touya: "Shouldn't be too strong. Looks quite weak..."
After all, how many powerful rabbit monsters could there be?
[On Screen]
ROAR!!!
[Suddenly, two magic wolves charged toward the rabbit...]
[However...]
[The magic rabbit dodged swiftly, bisecting one. It was impossible to see how it did it!]
BOOM!!!
[Another magic wolf released lightning from its tail, striking the magic rabbit. But it dodged again, striking the magic wolf with an invisible blade...]
Awooo—
[The magic wolf howled. In moments, it was devoured by the magic rabbit...]
[Screen Ends]
Touya: "This rabbit is outrageous!"
[On Screen]
[Nagumo Hajime was so frightened he collapsed on the ground. The magic rabbit's ruby-like eyes stared at him...]
[It seemed curious—a creature it had never seen before...]
[It teleported near him...]
[But after observing for a few seconds, it sensed great danger and looked up...]
[A giant Claw Bear!]
[In an instant, the rabbit was killed by it...]
[Nagumo Hajime had never seen such a bloody scene. Terrified, he kept retreating...]
[But this alerted the Claw Bear that was eating...]
[Instantly, sharp claws tore open his arm...]
[Nagumo Hajime trembled all over. Fear and pain overwhelmed his mind. His pupils kept dilating, his throat seemingly blocked, unable to scream...]
[Then, the instinct to survive surged through his entire being!]
[Transmute! Transmute! Transmute!]
[Driven by fear, Nagumo Hajime began transmuting the earth and rocks, sinking rapidly...]
Don't come! Don't come! Don't come!
[Until the Claw Bear could no longer reach him... Then he passed out peacefully...]
