First Meeting: Hello. My name is Ritsuka Fujimaru, but to avoid confusion between me and my other "self", call me Gudako and ignore the name the Galaxy Rangers gave me, my name is not Bayle!

Greeting: How are you, Stelle? What do you need from me? Do you need me to hunt someone? Do you need me to torment someone? Does someone need to suffer agony at my hands? Hehehe I'm just kidding. I'm not that "Fearsome Beast" you heard about anymore.

Departure: Are you going to set off on another new journey? Alright. I also have to go on my own journey among the stars. I have faith that we will see each other again.

About self. Past: Unlike the Ritsuka you know, my journey had a very tragic end.....*sigh*...I failed as a master of humanity and I fell....everyone died, not a single soul on the planet survived, but still....I still remain even after death.

About self. Immortality:Living forever is not the paradise some people think it is. It is a curse. Living beyond your expected life expectancy and seeing the people you love die before you is horrible. But there is something that is much worse than immortality... that something is.....loneliness.

Something to share: My "sword" is something that old man Zelretch made so that I could combine it with my Vidyadhara powers. I asked him about how he got these materials to make such a weapon, but his answer was "I went for a walk and found interesting things to use".

Knowledge: Time travel is something I am capable of doing, something that old man Zelretch is also capable of doing, but unlike him I do not have a connection to the "Root". If I did not have this ability I would not be able to escape the presence of IX.

About Ritsuka: Heh. Among all the crazy and bizarre things I have seen during my immortal life, seeing another version of myself has not become something impossible. Take good care of him. Please. The journey he's on is one that has a lot of pain and sadness but I'm sure that at the end of it all he'll be able to get the rest he wants.

About Bronya: I have to admit that I didn't expect to see this Bronya with such a princess-like air, besides she's not flat and she doesn't have that "Kuudere" air from before. I miss Kuudere Bronya, she was soft to hug...

About Seele: This is your Seele?! Are you kidding me? How is that possible? The Seele I know is shy, soft-spoken and reserved. This Seele is the total opposite! Although certain things haven't changed in her body parts.. Hehe... Hmm... I wonder what Ritsuka's reaction would be if this Seele called him "onii-chan"? I bet he'd freeze and be shocked for a few seconds. Bonus points if she does it while hugging him.

About Acheron: Mei- I mean. Acheron is a woman who, like me, has lost everything and is cursed to wander the cosmos alone, forgetting precious memories as time goes by. Yet even so we still remain because we still have a purpose to fulfill.

About Welt: Huh? Welt is here too? Hmmm...what a coincidence. I hope he at least told his family before he left. Now if he didn't, I'm sure his return party will be very "pleasant".

About March 7: March 7 is the cutest girl I've ever seen! Is it weird that I'm jealous of myself? It's a shame that she's kind of afraid of me and that she fell for Ritsuka's charm. If I had met March 7 before him, I would have already "devoured" her, after all, innocent girls are the most delicious. Hehehehe... Don't worry, I'm joking. Hehe... It seems like I spent too much time with Sparkle and Vita to act like this.

About Dan Heng/Imbibitor Lunae: I'm not surprised that he's afraid and wary of me after what my Alter Ego did to Dan Feng in the past. After all, I doubt that even though he's a reincarnation of him, I still think I ended up being the catalyst for everything that happened to the High-Cloud Quintet.

About Clara: A brave girl with a robot as a father. Hmm.... I suggest you don't tell Zelretch about her or he'll definitely make her turn into a magical girl, then we'll have Prisma Illya 2.0.

About Jing Yuan: I know that General Jing Yuan has plans for me and that he has his reasons for not putting me back in Shackling Prison even though he knows that in the state I'm in now I can escape from that place. As long he doesn't involve Bailu in this matter I'll respect his orders.

About Feixiao: Hm? What do I think about Feixiao? She's impressive and besides being very fast she probably wants to cut my head off like most of the people in the Xianzhou Alliance, if she's going to hunt me I'll be waiting for her to come to me.

About Jiaoqiu: Ah! If it isn't Faixiao's nanny and cook. Heh. His face reminds me of Oberon's face. Why do I think that? It's because both he and Oberon use that "good samaritan" expression when they're planning a sinister plan. Anyway, I'm curious to try Grandpa Jiaoqiu's dishes someday.

About Moze: Ah! The edgy emo assassin, Moze! His skills as an assassin are quite impressive, but he needs to improve his presence cancellation a bit more if he wants to cut my head off perfectly. Until he surpasses Grandpa King Hassan, he won't be able to catch me by surprise.

About Blade: I know a little about the story of who Blade was in the past. It is a tragic tale of both him and me being victims of Yaoshi's actions and their desire to spread "eternal life".... I swear that one day that Aeon will feel the touch of death and they will learn that immortality is nothing in the face of death.

About Jingliu: Her hatred towards me is to be expected. I still remember that tragic day of the loss that occurred, I still feel her sword piercing and cutting my body like a phantom pain an eternal reminder of my crimes, but still she is not able to kill me permanently.

About Yanqing: Ah! Jing Yuan's little bird. He has talent, but his potential cannot be fully nurtured without conflict. The general knows this, but he also does not want his precious student to lose the innocence of youth. Jing Yuan has to know how to balance his duty as a general with his duty as a parent.

About Hoolay: Did you know that Hoolay and I were cellmates? Ironic, don't you think? You could say that Hoolay was interested in me in a bad sense of the word if him calling me "Queen of the beasts" wasn't enough of a sign. *Sigh* unfortunately Hoolay didn't take the hint that I wasn't interested.

About Bailu: Bailu is...*sigh* someone I have to protect. One day when we managed to meet again, Bailu said that she wanted to see my dragon form. I refused the idea immediately, but she kept insisting that I had no choice. Hehehe. She loved my appearance and asked If she could ride on me to see the stars....her pure smile made that day worth it.

About Yunli:So this is the girl that Jing Yuan wanted to introduce to Yanqing, I can understand why he did it. The boy needs someone on his level to evolve and nothing better than having a talented person who is practically the total opposite of him. A healthy rivalry for both of them to evolve in their flaws... Hmm... I'm curious to see if this relationship between these two will evolve beyond this.

About Sparkle: I hate Aha for what THEY did to me and I will never forget it, but I also hate to admit it, but I am grateful for Sparkle's help. Even though I hate Aha with all my heart, I have to acknowledge the support of their followers.

About Vita: My relationship with Vita is... complicated. I won't go into details, but the most I can say is that I don't know if we are friends or something more than that. What I can say is that we were enemies in the past, I still think we are to this day, even though Sparkle says otherwise. Although if I have to choose between Vita or her Megazord, I'll one hundred percent choose her wonderful Megazord!

About Robin: Her songs and her voice remind me of a best friend of mine who was a singer in my high school days. So much time has passed that I no longer remember her name and face, but I still remember her bright star eyes that were very beautiful on a full moon night.

About Boothill: Oh? The cowboy Galaxy Ranger? Even though he and I are enemies, I have to admit that his American gunslinger style is pretty awesome! It reminds me of Billy the Kid! Speaking of which, I wish I could see a bald eagle in person, unfortunately I'll never have that opportunity again.

About Rappa: Hm? A Galaxy Ranger who is a crazy ninja and uses graffiti as a combat art? Huh...I know that Sei Shonagon would love her a lot. I wonder what title she would give me?

About Zelretch:Old man Zelretch found me during my travels that I was doing between many worlds and he found my existence somewhat curious the reason he involved me in several crazy things and events and because he was bored.....I know....now you know why he has the title of troll wizard, if you told me that he is a Masked Fool I would believe you because he certainly acts like one!

About BB: Ritsuka's BB isn't much different from mine BB, but I couldn't stop noticing that this BB is much more controlled and less chaotic than I was used to, could something have happened to her to cause this change?

About Mash: I wish she was here by my side. Always protecting me and always with that beautiful smile that always cheered me up..... If she were here I....wouldn't feel so alone.

About her travels: As you already know, I am able to travel to several different worlds as well as being able to travel between the past and the future. It would be very difficult for me to talk about all the worlds I have visited, but there is a specific world where I spent a long journey with two companions, a blond traveler and a little fairy who is emergency food.

Character Lines about Ritsuka (Gudako)

************

Ritsuka: It feels weird to see an alternate female version of myself. I thought it was impossible, but the living proof is right in front of me that says otherwise. Now I can't make jokes about the alternate versions of Artoria anymore.

March 7: So Gudako and Ritsuka are the same person just with different genders and backgrounds? So does that make them brother and sister? So does that mean they both think the same thing and have the same abilities? And how is it possible for the two of them to exist in the same place? I have so many questions!

Dan Heng: I'm aware that Gudako is different from the Beast of Abundance, but even so the pain and fear that the beast inflicted on Dan Feng still haunts me deeply, so it's hard for me to be around her with a huge sense of unease.

Welt: Gudako made a very unexpected visit to my home planet some time ago. She got along very well with the locals, but she didn't stay in the same place, so she always ends up being found in places you wouldn't expect. I hope she finds peace on this path of hers that will be enough for her to finally have eternal rest.

Himeko: I thought I would be prepared for anything unexpected coming from Ritsuka's secrets, but Gudako's existence made me realize that perhaps trying to learn more about his life is more of a headache than I expected.

Jing Yuan: If you had told me that the Beast of Abundance is capable of redemption and wants to pay for its crimes, I would have considered you crazy, but... as they say, life is a box of surprises... hehehe and what surprises this woman gave me more work to solve... *sigh* being a general is not easy at all.

Feixiao: The Beast of Abundance. A beast with an incredible ability to adapt as well as an enviable immortality, but this also shows how powerful the young general Ritsuka is for being able to defeat it. I have my opinions on its existence, but Ritsuka gave his word that it would no longer be a problem and I will trust him on that.

Lingsha: My first impressions of Lady Gudako were obviously not "pleasant" considering her long history, but her scent showed a glaring difference about her. Loneliness and death, these are the promising scents coming from her... for someone to have such a strong scent, her tale must be quite tragic...

Bailu: Lady Gudako is very kind to me and for some reason I feel very good and comfortable around her. Ah! Did you know that her dragon form is incredible! I have never seen a vidyadhara transform completely into a dragon; Lady Gudako is truly a unique and special vidyadhara!

Blade: I care little about her past or the connection between her and Ritsuka. All the words I had to say to her died many years ago. Now we are two abomination seeking the embrace of death... heh... how ironic...

Jingliu: I am aware of her immortality and the only way to eliminate it permanently is through the soul, but even so, that will not stop me from plunging my sword into her heart.

Adding Gudako to the team...

***********

Ritsuka and Gudako

************

Ritsuka: Gudako, try not to leave the place in ruins, brutal violence is not always the answer in these incidents.

Gudako: You're right Ritsuka. Violence is not the answer... It's the solution! Time to show our enemies the pain of losing on Gacha!

**************

Gudako and Dan Heng/Imbibitor Lunae

*************

Gudako: What an irony of fate... The two of us fighting together..... I hope there's no more bad blood between us.

Dan Heng: Whatever happened in the past should stay in the past. What we should do is focus on the present for the sake of both of us.

************

Gudako and March 7

"***********

March 7: Ehh.... Why are you staring at me?

Gudako: Oh? I'm sorry, I was distracted by something that attracted me so much that I got a little hungry.

March 7: Hyahhh!!! Ritsuka! Your sister wants to eat me!!!

Gudako: Hehehe. She's so easy to provoke...

***********

Gudako and Welt

************

Gudako: Take it easy on your back, Grandpa. You're not at the peak of youth anymore.

Welt: That rule apply to you as well....Grandma.

Gudako: Touché. But unlike you, I still have my youthful beauty.

*************

Gudako and Jingliu

*************

Jingliu: Show me what you're up to with that thing you call sword.

Gudako: Oh? That's an interesting request. Okay. I may be an amateur, but I know how to adapt during a fight.

**************

Gudako and Sparkle

*************

Sparkle: Gudako-chan! You little rascal! Are you trying to make Vita-chan jealous? I have to say I like this plan!

Gudako: *sigh* no matter what I say, she'll hear what she wants to hear.

***********

Gudako and Bailu

***********

Bailu: Lady Gudako! Lady Gudako! Can you teach me more about your amazing red lightning spells?

Gudako: Hehe... Maybe one day... Haste is the enemy of perfection, little one.

*********

Gudako and Jing Yuan

*********

Gudako: I didn't expect you to join me, General. Don't tell me the paperwork scared you too much?

Jing Yuan: Hehe... Maybe, maybe not. I'm just wanting to see your performance more closely.

****************

Gudako and Feixiao

***************

Feixiao:The Hunt and Abundance working together, Hmpf. It's unbelievable that these words are coming out of my mouth with you here.

Gudako: Hehehe. Ritsuka and I are experts at making impossible things become reality. Putting two enemies on a team is one of those things.

**********

Gudako and BB

***********

Gudako: I know I'm not your "Senpai", but I still count on your support, BB!

BB: Don't worry, Gudako-san! BB-chan will do a spectacular job that will leave you speechless!

****************

A/N: To be honest with you, I wasn't planning on using Gudako as a reference to Bayle the Dread. In fact, I was going to take inspiration from Messmer the Impaler.

However, during my playthrough of the Elden Ring DLC, when I faced Bayle with Igon screaming during the fight, I was honestly speechless.

I was fighting Bayle blindly, so when I finished the fight, it was an unforgettable experience.

Also, the dragon hunter great katana is practically the perfect weapon to eliminate dragons with great ease.

Due to this experience, I ended up changing my mind and had to rewrite some things I was planning in the story just because of my fight against the dragon.
