Lost Narrative Poetry

"Senior? Senior is awake!"

In a daze, he seemed to hear a familiar voice. Fujimaru Ritsuka subconsciously opened his hazy eyes and found Masuo standing outside the instrument and looking at him.

She has shed her wartime attire, no longer wearing tight purple armor and holding a huge shield. Instead, she returned to her usual appearance in Chaldea, with short pink hair and one side of her hair just covering her eyes. She also wore a pair of glasses, looking like a quiet literary girl...

"This is... the box...?"

After all, she had experienced this many times, so the girl naturally reacted quickly, and her hazy sleepiness disappeared in an instant. She looked out of the box used for spirit transfer, and saw familiar scenery and personnel, he had returned unknowingly.

This is Chaldea's control room, and she is lying in the iron coffin-like transfer device.

"Well, everyone is back safely. As you can see, there is no problem." Mashu nodded, and at the same time, he skillfully cooperated with Fujimaru Ritsuka outside to open the box and help the latter from the device for transferring souls. Come out.

"Romani, come here and help!"

Da Vinci on the side stretched out his hand to greet the doctor who was already sweating profusely and his feet were barely touching the ground. He wanted him to come over and take a look as soon as possible. After all, Fujimaru Ritsuka was the one who performed the soul transfer among all the people. The only truly ordinary human being, naturally needs to be more attentive.

Even if it is an artificial life like Mashu, which is only designed to be used for eighteen years, after obtaining the fusion of the power of the servant, the body's various abilities have been greatly improved... Only Fujimaru Ritsuka has always been the most vulnerable, although he is usually sober. Almost all the time is spent on various training exercises and simulated battles with spirit children.

Unfortunately--

Because her time is limited and her qualifications are not very good, although the improvement is there and obvious, it can be said to be a huge improvement, but it is mainly because she is already at a low level, so the upgrade standard is also low. It can be said that upgrading from level 1 to level 2 can be said to be a huge improvement. The strength is doubled and the progress is huge...

But for various Singularity dungeons that often require full level 90 training, this improvement is indeed negligible. She is still a cute human girl, and she probably won’t say “I’m not a human anymore” in the future. opportunities for lines.

"Come on, come on!" Romani Aqiman, who was sweating profusely, responded, quickly exchanged a few words with the surrounding staff, and then trotted over in a hurry.

It's not just the doctors who are too busy, the staff at Chaldea seem to be too busy. Fujimaru Ritsuka just glanced at it in a hurry, and she could feel the intense, panic-stricken, and race-against-the-clock atmosphere. It's like fighting a life-or-death war.

"There is a serious problem with the transfer of souls. The fault has not been eliminated yet, and even the cause has not been found, so no one dares to relax..."

Dr. Roman explained in a difficult manner. His eyes were red and black, as if he had not slept for several days and had both dark circles and bloodshot eyes.

"We don't even know how you came back. After that evil dragon, you couldn't even transmit the image back. The unknown interference was particularly serious. After that, the contact was completely disconnected... I thought something was wrong. Problem, but luckily..."

He looked like he was greatly relieved.

Although they don’t know what happened specifically, the three of them were able to return safely and even solved the trouble of the sixth singularity. This is really great, at least it is not the worst ending of direct group destruction.

"Can't even maintain the proof of existence?" Leonardo da Vinci raised his delicate eyebrows slightly, keenly aware of the key point, and asked.

"There is no signal at all. It is impossible to send or receive. How do you think we can maintain the proof of existence..."

When Dr. Roman talked about this, he looked as if his heart was palpitating. Then he looked up and down at Fujimaru Ritsuka who had returned successfully. He wiped his sweat happily and said: "Fortunately, the decomposition of the spirit son did not occur. It is like a miracle blessed by God." But...Ritsuka, when did you change your clothes?"

That's right, it's not a great blessing among misfortunes, it's basically the same as a miraculous result.

After losing contact for such a long period of time, without the maintenance and guarantee of existence proof, there was no accident at all? You know, all Chaldean personnel, including Romani, are mentally prepared to face the worst case scenario.

So, to what extent does this girl have the blessing of fate? !

"I don't think this has anything to do with God's blessing. If that person is really in charge, wouldn't he just help us deal with that damn King Solomon..."

Da Vinci curled his lips, then turned to Fujimaru Ritsuka and said: "Basically there is only one possibility. The magician is right. He never wanted to hurt you from the beginning. He is probably talking to Chaldea When the contact was cut off, he was maintaining your "existence". No wonder he would take you away alone at that time..."

"Eh? Is that so?" Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned. She had never thought that this would be the case. She had no idea at all.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems that what Da Vinci said makes sense. No matter how you look at it, the magician should be protecting her, and there is another proof, that is, she did it without everyone knowing. After the second transfer, he was sent to the deep sea computer singularity in 2030 AD.

Theoretically speaking, nothing happened to her, so she must be protected by Xia Ran, because no one else could support her at that time.

"This is the only possibility. Otherwise, do you really believe that it was the reason for God's blessing that Roman said?" Da Vinci felt that he had seen through everything, and no matter how lucky he was, he could not explain such a thing.

Because the singularity is both reality and a hypothetical world. As long as he is at the singularity, Fujimaru Ritsuka's existence will become ambiguous. In order to ensure that her "meaning disappears", Chaldea must continue to prove her existence.

Otherwise, once her existence value changes due to certain circumstances, the simulated image of her spirit may be left on Chaldeas, resulting in the inability to return to modern times, or even more terrifying consequences. There is no telling what will happen.

Therefore, the control room needs to monitor Fujimaru Ritsuka's status at all times, confirm the various values, and even if there is any "deviation", it must be immediately adjusted back to the "normal value"... It's like taking an X-ray. It shows that the patient's body has certain risks and problems, and the doctor will use PS to help the patient fix it...

All in all, during the period when contact and monitoring were completely disconnected and the technical support from Chaldea was lost, Fujimaru Ritsuka had a very high probability of something happening every second, and there was even a high possibility of being decomposed into spirit children, because originally They are people who do not belong to that singularity.

Nothing happened this second, and the existence was still stable, which can be said to be good luck; the next second, it was not decomposed, and it still existed stably, which can be said to be good luck...

But no matter how lucky you are, can you still ensure that among the countless tests that are carried out every moment, you will continue to throw a successful result again and again, and you will never fail even once? This is obviously impossible, so it can only be the work of the magician.

"Wait, what magician?"

Dr. Roman was a little dazed, and then he reacted belatedly. He quickly asked with a vigilant look: "Is he the court magician of the Lion King that I mentioned before? Is it Merlin? You must have met him, right? , it must be him, it must be a good thing he did, right?"

"..."

"..."

No, why do you have such a big opinion against Merlin? Do you just dislike him? They obviously have no interest in each other, right?

"I'll explain these things to you later, Romani..." Da Vinci looked at the doctor helplessly, and then at the chaotic and busy scene in the control room around him, "Hurry up and check Ritsuka, and then..." Go back and rest, I will take care of the rest."

"Huh? Oh, um, actually I'm fine..." The doctor waved his hand nonchalantly, indicating that he was completely fine and could continue to perform liver transplantation.

"You might die suddenly if you stay up for another half day..." Da Vinci did not give the doctor a chance to refute, and waved his hand impatiently, interrupting him.

Mingming's eyes were as red as rabbits, and they were bloodshot, which made her feel worried just looking at them.

I don't know how long this person lasted before he and others returned. However, considering this guy's hellish patience and his history of often using drugs to improve his thinking accuracy and cover up physical fatigue, Leonardo da Vinci was still worried that he was now stretched to the limit.

"Hey! Wait..."

"I'm okay, just give me a little more time! Just a little more time will be fine!"

In the end, Dr. Roman had no choice. After the examination, he was forcefully driven away by Leonardo da Vinci. Two staff members were called to hold his arms and drag him out of the control room.

"Doctor, is he okay...are you pushing yourself too hard?"

Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but sweat for Dr. Roman.

"Because Roman is a person who forces himself in all aspects..." Da Vinci snorted, "Since the title was designated, he has been almost sleepless. In addition to his duties in the medical department, he also operates the remaining equipment. , the maintenance of Sheba, the control of the Chaldean Furnace, the combat strategy and the use of spirit transfer, these are all his responsibility."

"Eh?" Even Ma Xiu widened his eyes in surprise, "How could..."

"What's surprising? After Director Olga Marie was thrown into Chaldeas and died, Roman's position was the highest among the surviving employees, so he took on the position of acting director. As an ordinary person, he could afford In order to fulfill the task of saving humanity, he has no choice but to sacrifice his time and energy to handle tasks beyond his ability."

Da Vinci shook his head and said.

In fact, it was not just after the crown designation began, but it should be said that Dr. Roman was already like this before that.

Although he didn't know the reason or what happened to him, it seemed like something terrible was oppressing him all the time, forcing him to study hard, work day and night, and run in the darkness with tears in his eyes. Even Da Vinci couldn't stand the scene.

The all-powerful genius actually doesn't like Chaldea very much, because there are too many dark places in this organization. If she hadn't stayed to help Roman, she would have left Chaldea a few years ago.

Even if it doesn't work, it will just be like Galahad before. Although he stayed, he would just watch indifferently and never help -

After Galahad was summoned, he was angry at Chaldea's inhumane experiments, but he was worried that if he left just like that, Mashu, the object of possession and fusion, would also die directly, so he never left to help Mashu maintain his life. , while refusing to cooperate with Chaldea.

Even when he was first summoned and found that something was wrong, this heroic spirit was extremely angry. He directly controlled Mashu's body to show amazing combat capabilities, breaking through all the defense methods of Chaldea Laboratory, and almost killed him. Penetrate the entire Chaldea...

If he hadn't been stopped by Mashu in the end, he might have chosen to destroy Chaldea directly instead of fighting these darkness through that negative way.

"Okay, let's not talk about Roman. I just checked and found that the sixth singularity seems to be no longer observable, and the Holy Grail has also been brought back... Although it is meaningless, at least it proves that the magician should He fulfilled his promise."

Da Vinci turned around and said to Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, and at the same time he breathed a long sigh of relief.

This journey can be said to be extremely dangerous. If the other party is really an enemy, then they have no chance of winning at all, but fortunately the other party is still on their side. Although there were some twists and turns in the process, they finally passed the test and were recognized.

"According to that guy's parting words, the seventh singularity is the most critical singularity. The real Holy Grail was at that time. It was still the Holy Grail that was personally sent to the past history by the mastermind behind the scenes. As long as this initial point is not solved, , the burning of human nature will continue..."

"Lord Xia Ran said that the location of the seventh singularity was in the early dynasty era..." Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded repeatedly and told the information that he still remembered firmly.

"Well, I know this, but with such a long history, it is still very difficult to observe and determine the details. It will take a certain amount of time..." The omnipotent genius nodded lightly, "Of course, this information can allow us to It is still very helpful to lock the seventh singularity point faster."

The final banquet could not be said to be very relaxed and happy, but rather the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

After all, "smiling away grudges" is easier said than done, especially when two groups of people who were fighting life and death before meet each other are somewhat embarrassed. For example, they always had some grudges against Lancelot and Gawain, the Knights of the Round Table.

Moreover, the crowned assassin had been directly deported before...

The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows has always been absent-minded. She is often distracted. She peeks at the magician every now and then, as if she can't help but want to step forward and issue a challenge...

In addition, Mordred was not here, and King Arthur did not show up the whole time. It was really scary to know what he was doing, so eating that meal was really painful...

Fortunately, there were no repetitions or twists and turns. They came back successfully, and at the last moment, the monster magician who flew from the parallel world told them important and precious information. This was probably the most valuable gain.

As for whether Miss Scathach would challenge the monster in the end, and whether the "father and son" who were kind and filial would repeat history, they didn't have time to see it.

But there should be no problem. No matter what choice they make in the final time, probably no record will be left, so let them vent... And the observation results of Chaldeas It shows that the sixth singularity has indeed disappeared.

"By the way, there is another good news. In the list of summonable spirit base records, I found many more possibilities. Now our chances of getting help at the next singularity are much greater." Dafen Qi remembered something and winked at the two girls.

"Is it Mr. Gawain and the others? And Mordred?"

"That's right, but there are more than just these four Knights of the Round Table. Guess again..."

"Is it...King Arthur?" Fujimaru Ritsuka asked with a subtle expression.

"Not at all. Didn't the magician say that King Arthur, as his servant, has some of his abilities, so the uniqueness of King Arthur's parallel world determines that it is almost impossible for her to be summoned additionally..." Da Vinci Sighed.

If possible, she would also like to have such god-level support, and it would be great if she could also drag the magician over as a permanent combat force.

"Wait, is it Mr. Bedivere?" Matthew suddenly became excited and asked full of hope.

At the banquet, they also asked about Bedivere, and the answer they received was that Bedivere was not actually a servant, but a human being, or he also came from another parallel world.

Coming from the end of another world, there is a possible IF line that appears due to the singularity - that is Bedivere who lives in the "IF that failed to return the holy sword to King Arthur". In order to atone for his sins and return the holy sword, he lived for fifteen hundred years and finally exhausted himself in Avalon.

Although the protection of the Holy Sword gave him the effect of immortality, the human spirit had been burned out during the fifteen hundred years of lonely journey of immortality, and the soul was already a burned-out dregs. In the end, he turned into a human-shaped rock. With his amazing obsession, he could not allow himself to die.

Then he was discovered by Merlin in Avalon.

The Flower Magician made him stand up again and gave him the strength to continue fighting and walking. The knight picked up his broken knees and continued the journey of atonement and the mission of returning the holy sword.

However, because King Arthur was locked into the uniqueness of the parallel world by her Master, there was only a hopeless result at the end of that IF line, because Bedivere was destined to never find that existence in that parallel world. figure...

Then the monster at the sixth singularity took action, observed this IF, and compassionately led Bedivere from the end of the other world, giving the desperate people the humble hope they could finally find, allowing the knight to once again I saw dead people who could not possibly exist.

"Yes, it may be King Arthur's handsome decision, or it may be that the achievements of this journey have made him sublime into a heroic spirit..." Da Vinci said with a smile, confirming Matthew's guess.

The two girls looked at each other and cheered at the same time.

…

…

At the same time, the singularity that has disappeared in theory is still in the tower of glory.

But this time it was not the top floor, and the magician did not continue to observe the conditions of the planet. Instead, he stayed in his room and looked at the things on the table in front of him with a thoughtful expression. This is something that the little witch gave to him not long ago. It is clearly stated that this is something she took with her after she was summoned to the world. If this makes any sense... she must have given this thing to him. .

It was a cabinet made of acacia wood covered with gold inside and outside. On top of the cabinet were two angels made of gold. The two angels faced each other and surrounded a space with their wings, forming a very peculiar shape.

"The Ark of the Covenant...this is really..."

A slight sigh sounded imperceptibly in the room.
