In the world of Type-Moon, it all begins with becoming Morgan's husband!

Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke first.

"Let me explain."

"Ian, are you aware of the explosion in the central control room?"

"..."

The man's expression turned serious in an instant.

He certainly hadn't forgotten that.

After all, it was because of that explosion that he came to Singularity F.

"Ok, I know."

"That's good." Fujimaru Ritsuka continued to explain, "At that time, I was near the explosion site."

"Luckily... I wasn't hurt, but Mashu was a different story."

"In order to prolong her life, I signed a 'Servant' contract with her and became her Master."

"Then, the second wave of explosions came, and when I woke up... Mashu and I were here."

There is no contradiction with what I remember.

Ian looked at Mash beside him.

The latter understood what the man meant and nodded.

"Well... that's the situation."

"Senior, do you mind that I signed a contract with Ritsuka because of this?"

Knowing that Mash was still worried that he would be angry about this, Ian thought for a moment and then took the hands of the two girls, one on each side.

He placed them on his knees and then spoke:

"Isn't this just right?"

"Mash has made her first friend."

"And Ritsuka also got her first Servant."

"I'm overjoyed!"

Upon hearing this, Mashu lowered her head shyly;

Fujimaru Ritsuka, on the other hand, was overjoyed, as if she had discovered a new continent.

“Oh, that’s right—!”

"This is my first Servant!"

"Hehe~ When we get back, I'll let Mash and Mordred have a fight!"

"Hey, hey, no way I want that kind of thing!"

Don't be shy~

"I'm not shy at all!"

The three of them got along well, but Olga Marie seemed a little lonely.

She once again felt that sense of "not having accomplished anything".

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is really the case.

I was chased by Assassins as soon as I arrived here.

Once we reached the mountaintop, I stood there dumbfounded for a long time, like a fool.

If we're really going to nitpick... even things like climbing mountains were done by Ian.

Throughout the whole ordeal, I felt like an outsider.

What kind of director is this?

"Director!"

Ian's voice brought Olga Marilla back to reality.

"Thank you for curing Ritsuka."

"Eh?"

Olga Marie paused for a moment.

Fujimaru Ritsuka then realized what was happening.

"Yes!"

"Thank you, Director!"

"..."

Olga Marie looked at Ian after hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka's thanks.

She knew he brought it up on purpose—he was reminding her that she hadn't done nothing.

She smiled.

“No need to thank me,” Olga Marie said, tossing her hair.

"Everyone in Chaldea has their own responsibilities."

"I just did what I was supposed to do."

Just in time.

A sound came from not far away.

"It's disgusting... this kind of happy ending."

Everyone, including Ian, turned their gaze toward the direction from which the sound came.

A man wearing a hat and an overcoat walked towards the crowd.

Olga Marie was the first to shout:

"Rafe, you're still alive?!"

Rafe?

Upon hearing the name, Ian immediately realized who it was.

That was the professor who had once reprimanded Mordred, and who also fabricated a false investigation to suggest to Olga Marie that the "Master Watch Project" be halted in order to further accelerate the exploration of singularities.

In a sense.

Everything now is inextricably linked to him.

Was he also involved in the explosion?

wrong--!

Ian could sense a tremendous amount of magical power emanating from Rafe.

This is not normal!

Almost simultaneously, Mash, who had been promoted to "Servant," also realized this due to the improvement in her physical abilities.

"Chief, that's not right!"

"That's not the Professor Rafe we ​​know!"

"Mash, what are you talking about?!" Olga Marie looked puzzled. "That's Rafe!"

beep - beep -

A slightly noisy sound came from behind.

It was clear that one of the devices on Rafe's arm was connected to something.

A worried male voice came from inside.

"Phew... I've finally made contact with someone."

"Rafe, are you alright?"

Rafe answered quickly.

"Romani Archman, I want to tell you—"

"I'm not feeling well."

"I'm not okay at all."

"Because of you all—!"

Rafe's features began to contort, forming an extremely terrifying expression.

"Every single one of them is a disorganized and undisciplined scumbag!"

"Ian Pendragon! Why did you summon a Servant without reporting it to us, and then have her intercept the helicopter! And then you came up with that stupid 'Master Watch Project'!"

"Fujimaru Ritsuka! You weren't even allowed to participate in this operation, so why aren't you staying in your room instead of wandering around aimlessly?!"

"Mash Kyrielight! Can't you just stay there and die quietly? Why do you have to become some kind of 'Demi-Servant'?!"

"Romani Archman! You were slacking off and escaped the explosion because you weren't even at your post when it happened!"

"And you—!"

Rafe glared at Olga Marie.

"I never expected that you, as the director, would be so oblivious!"

"You can't even realize that you're already dead?!"

"Foolishness!"

Rafe's words pierced the joy of their reunion like a sharp arrow.

Olga Marie took a while to recover.

"Rafe, what are you saying?"

"I am dead?"
