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

Realizing that the situation seemed somewhat different from what he had expected, Ian quickly followed up with another question;

"That--"

"What happened to you that made you like this?"

"If this is the case..."

Looking at Ian, who had truly become her master, BB decided to stop hiding anything.

"actually--"

"BB saw your secret information in Chaldea's system."

"what?!"

378. Olga Marie's Bold Declaration / bb is an Investigator / Former Director (4k)

"..."

Ian hesitated for a moment, then realized the truth behind BB's fainting.

"BB, do you mean you saw information about me in Chaldea's virtual network?"

BB nodded first, then shook his head.

“I did see something about you.”

"but--"

"It is under lockdown."

"A state of being locked down?" Ian didn't quite understand what BB meant.

"The entire file was locked deep within the system—" bb explained. "I wanted to force my way in to see what it was."

"And that's how it knocked me down."

"..."

Ian was somewhat surprised.

It's important to know that BB is a super AI who came to Chaldea in response to Sakura Tohsaka's wish for the Holy Grail, and its "combat capabilities" in virtual space can be said to have reached the extreme.

She can easily replicate Noble Phantasms like Excalibur, Phoebus Catastrophe, and Gae Bolg Alternative here.

If even she says she can't break through... then you can imagine how strong this blockade is.

Moreover, what Ian cares more about is who can set up this level of defense.

Chaldea... holds secrets I don't know about?

Thinking about this, the man became even more worried.

Influenced by this way of thinking, he quickly came up with new ideas.

"bb".

"Hmm?" Sensing a subtle change in Ian's tone, BB began to speak more seriously.

What do you want to do?

“Yes.” The man nodded. “I… want to go back there and take a look.”

"Eh?"

Ian's answer surprised and delighted BB.

"you!"

"The baby's already in this state—how dare you, you pig, go back to check on it? Aren't you afraid something might happen?!"

“It’s precisely because you’ve become like this that I need to go back and check on you,” Ian said seriously.

"otherwise--"

"If everyone gets hurt because of something that even you can't overcome, wouldn't the problem be even more serious?"

"This……"

Looking at the man in front of her, BB understood his feelings at that moment.

"So, in the end, you still want to protect them, right?"

“Isn’t that obvious?” Ian answered without hesitation. “If I can’t protect my girlfriends, who else can I rely on to protect them?”

"..."

Hearing this undeniably correct yet utterly scumbag statement, BB couldn't really refute it for a moment.

As a super AI, she also clarified her own logic.

Faced with Ian's demands, there were essentially two choices.

Either agree or refuse;

Clearly, whether he agrees or refuses, Ian will definitely choose to go back and see.

BB's gaze fell on the man in front of her.

So--

For his safety, I have to go with him no matter what, right?

"Sigh." BB sighed, "I have a feeling that you pig will be ruined by a woman sooner or later."

“We’ll talk about that then,” Ian said with a smile. “BB, come with me, I need your explanation?”

“Of course——~☆” BB put her hands on her hips, looking very imposing.

"I can't just watch you, you pig, die for nothing after we just signed the contract, can I?"

"That's fine then." Ian didn't mince words. "Let's set off now!"

"Mmm~☆"

Driven by the desire to protect each and every one of them, Ian and BB returned to the virtual data space of Chaldea once again.

Although it was pitch black here, BB could see everything clearly as if he had X-ray vision.

In this space, she is almost invincible.

"Hey pig, over here!"

"it is good."

Following BB's directions, Ian and her continued on their way and soon arrived at their destination.

only--

Upon seeing the scene before him, Ian couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

Before the man and the girl stood an endless gate.

This is truly boundless.

Ian looked around but couldn't see where the door led.

It so rudely and unreasonably blocked everyone who wanted to enter, forcibly dividing the space into two parts: inside and outside the door.

In a sense, it's more like a "wall"—a wall of light that makes people want to retreat.

"This……"

Unable to comprehend this situation, Ian could only turn to BB for help.

"How could there be such a door inside Chaldea's space?"

“This isn’t actually a door,” BB explained from the side. “It’s essentially a very complex magic spell.”

"It's just that the thoughtful baby made it a little more tangible so you could feel it~☆"

"Magic spell?"

Ian noticed a very familiar word in BB's words.

"Bob, isn't this data, or is it magic?"

"should be."

BB stared at the wall in front of him that was giving him a headache.

"If it were just about data, BB would have been able to break through in no time—but it seems that's clearly not the case now."

"..."

Ian finally understood why BB, who was almost invincible in the virtual space, had been stopped.

Because what blocked her was not Chaldea's protection, but a magical spell that shouldn't exist in this space.

She can handle data, but she can't handle magic!

But why exactly is such a protection mechanism set up?

Ian couldn't understand—he needed to get a little closer.

"BB, I want to get closer to it."

"..." BB hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said, "Okay, go ahead."

"You're not going to stop me?"

"No one can stop you~" BB hugged her chest helplessly. "No one can stop you from doing what you're determined to do, right?"

"Indeed." The man did not deny what the baby said.

“Go ahead,” BB replied, “but let’s make this clear first, if I sense anything is wrong, I’ll pull you away immediately.”

"Well, I see."

With BB's "safety" promise, Ian began to actively approach the "door" in front of him.

Unsurprisingly, the man found that he couldn't push it away at all.

This is only natural, since even something like BB couldn't surpass it, so it's even more impossible for me to do so.

but--
