Ian smiled.

"Ophelia, who do you think I want to see?"

"How do I know this?"

Ophelia turned her face away.

"I still can't understand why you dared to do these things behind the backs of the Chaldea people, so how could I possibly understand who you want to see?"

"Morgan."

Ian answered very bluntly.

"I want to see Morgan."

"Morgan..."

Ophelia murmured the name, then suddenly realized what was happening.

"You mean Morgan le Fay, the Queen of Camelot?"

"Yes, that's her."

"This……"

Ophelia's brows furrowed with doubt.

Why do you want to see her?

“You don’t have any markings passed down from a magician’s family, so you shouldn’t have any family obsession with seeing her.”

"Yes, so it's for my personal reasons."

"Can you tell me?"

“No,” Ian said firmly.

"Since you are an excellent magician who came from the Clock Tower, I just want to know if my idea is even possible?"

"..."

Ophelia hesitated for a moment, then nodded and then shook her head.

She explained:

"Theoretically speaking, this is indeed possible."

"After all, the history of Britain ended a long time ago."

“A person of Morgan le Fay’s stature is indeed qualified to become a ‘Heroic Spirit’.”

"But if you mean doing that in simulated warfare, then I think it's absolutely impossible."

"Why?" Ian pressed.

“It’s very simple,” Ophelia continued in her reply.

"Although I don't understand why you were able to transform Artoria Pendragon (Saber) into Mordred (Saber)."

"But one thing is 100% certain."

"That is--"

Ophelia looked at the "battlefield" not far away.

"According to historical records, Morgan le Fay's job title should have been Caster."

"The simulation battle doesn't include any data for this class, so you can't summon her as a 'Servant' here no matter what."

Ophelia was not lying.

As a top student who came from the Clock Tower, even though she had only used the simulation battle system once, she roughly understood its underlying magical logic.

Based on other people's personal experiences, the "Servants" are created as corresponding data.

She admitted that Saber's appearance really surprised her.

But the most basic aspects have definitely not changed.

At least the class of all "Servants" has not changed drastically due to the appearance of Mordred (Saber).

After stating her thoughts, Ophelia thought Ian would quickly accept everything, but she never expected to witness such a scene.

Ian seemed to have fallen into the deep sea.

His eyes, which had been full of light just moments before, were now dull and lifeless.

That was a look she had never shown even when facing her own demonic eyes.

Ophelia sensed that something was wrong.

"What... what's wrong with you?"

There was no response from Ian.

He kept repeating one sentence: "How could it not work... We were able to even get Mordred out."

Ophelia realized that Ian harbored a strong obsession deep within his heart.

She quickly spoke to Mash, who was standing beside her:

"Mash, immediately shut down the simulation battle!"

"Ian isn't acting right!"

"Okay, okay!"

The virtual scene has disappeared.

The three of them went back outside.

Looking at Ian, who was sitting on a bench by the aisle, covering his forehead, Mashu's face was full of worry.

"Miss Ophelia."

"What did you say to Senior Ian? How did he end up like this?"

"..."

Ophelia thought for a while and decided not to tell Mashu the real reason.

After all, even if she knew, there was nothing she could do; it would only cause her more trouble.

But what excuse should I use to get out of this?

Just as Ophelia was agonizing over this problem, Mash spoke up.

She asked cautiously:

“Um, Miss Ophelia.”

"What exactly is your relationship with Senior Ian?"

What is their relationship?

Ophelia didn't know how to answer that question right away.

She did want to tell everyone what Ian had done.

But at the same time, it must be acknowledged that—

This is not something that can be announced casually.

A man I had just met shaved his genitals bald in my room.

If I were to tell anyone, I would lose all face.

Seeing that Ophelia did not answer, Mash's throat trembled slightly, then, as if she had made some painful decision, she spoke:

"Miss Ophelia."

"Are you... and Ian-senpai in a romantic relationship?!"

"..."

Ophelia paused for two seconds, making sure she hadn't misheard, before speaking:

"Mash, what are you saying!"

"How could I possibly be in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship with him!"

"But--"

Mashu looked up, her face showing sadness.

"Miss Ophelia."

"You clearly came here with Ian-senpai today, didn't you?"

Of course!

This guy tied me up all night!

"And you've always stayed close to him."

Please.

That guy wouldn't let me leave!

"You two were just chatting very intimately."

Can we not talk about it?

This guy's got some extraordinary ideas!

Ophelia realizes that Mash has completely misunderstood her relationship with Ian.

She quickly began to explain:

"Mash, you've misunderstood."

“My relationship with Ian is not what you think.”

However, Mashu did not feel happy upon hearing these words.

She became even more upset.

“Miss Ophelia, I know you are a kind person and don’t want to hurt me like this.”
