In the Type-Moon World, I Have the Holy Evil Simulator

Echigo Province – Approaching Kasugayama Castle, Year 9 of Tenbun (1540 AD)

The journey was almost over.

The towering walls of Kasugayama Castle stood in the distance, rising above the misty valleys of Echigo.

But for the boy who had once been a nameless blade—

This was not a return.

It was the beginning of something new.

Because this time—

He was not arriving as a servant.Not as a spy.Not as someone else's weapon.

He was arriving as himself.

A warrior with no master.

A warrior with no chains.

And whatever came next—

He would decide it with his own hands.

"You seem calmer."

Uesugi Kenshin's voice was even, unreadable.

They had walked for days, crossing mountains and rivers.

But with each step—

The boy had felt something shifting within him.

The weight of his past had not disappeared.

But it no longer crushed him.

"I am."

It was not a lie.

It was not blind confidence.

It was simply the truth.

Kenshin studied him for a moment.

Then—

"Good."

"Because the world will not wait for you to figure yourself out."

The boy nodded.

Because he already knew that.

Freedom did not mean peace.

It only meant that, for the first time—

The battles he fought would be his own.

Kasugayama Castle loomed closer.

The banners of the Uesugi fluttered in the cold wind.

The soldiers at the gates stood tall, disciplined.

This was not like Kai.

It was not a land ruled by ambition alone.

It was a land where war was fought with purpose.

And perhaps—

Just perhaps—

It was a place where he could find his own.

The gates opened before them.

And as he stepped forward—

He knew one thing for certain.

The path ahead was uncertain.

The war was far from over.

But whatever came next—

He would face it not as a tool, not as a shadow.

But as himself.

[Fated Death: Broken.] You have returned to Kasugayama Castle—not as a pawn, but as your own person. The war is far from over, but now, it will be on your terms. The future is uncertain—but that is what makes it yours.

For the first time, you walk forward with no chains.

Now, you must decide what you will become.
