Crossover Anime: Picking up Medea at the Start

Although the chosen individuals in the same world cannot be changed, they can return at any time.

If we could find some strange and unusual resources, or even technology, in another world, it might be of some help.

Yes, that needs to be prepared, and my new ideas for manipulating gravity also need to be implemented as soon as possible... Once everything is ready, then let's see how the opponent will make their move.

With this thought in mind, Roland smiled and shook his head, then decided to head to the imaginary space.

He wants to go to the imaginary space to see if there is gravity there.

Then, immediately after he returned to the imaginary space, he saw the woman who had been there for who knows how long, surrounded by black waves in the center.

Her features are the most recognizable.

In addition, since this was imaginary space, Roland realized what was happening the moment he saw her.

"This is... Tiamat!?"

....

13. The First Otherworld

To be honest, even though I often see Tiamat in games or anime and immediately comment "Tiamat" in the chat, I was still very excited when FGO implemented Little Tiamat.

but

Roland has now traveled through time.

The first thought that came to him when he saw Tiamat was to run!

Tiamat is just too strong.

However, after Roland breathed a sigh of relief and recovered somewhat from the shock of seeing Tiamat, he ultimately decided not to run away.

Because this is the imaginary space.

Tiamat is in this position, and unless he doesn't come in, since she's voluntarily waiting for him here, he either has to cripple this imaginary number magic that has already reached the level of magic on the spot, or he'll run into her again sooner or later.

And if they run away without saying anything the first time, the other party might launch an attack directly the second time.

In addition, Roland knew the origin of Tiamat's humanoid form.

This is a constraint Tiamat imposed on herself, so this constraint is still in place, and she may not necessarily run into trouble—just like when the Chaldea people first fought Tiamat in FGO Chapter 7.

So after weighing the pros and cons, Roland spoke up.

"What do you want from me?"

As Roland asked the question, the black waves surrounding the woman surged up, about to strike Roland's location.

Upon seeing this, Roland instinctively tried to run away.

But he stopped the moment he saw the woman in the middle raise her hand.

as predicted.

As she raised her hand, the black waves seemed to be pulled back by something, rising to their highest point and shrinking back to the woman's side.

After doing all this, the woman simply stared at Roland with her lifeless eyes.

Her actions left Roland unsure whether to stay or leave.

Fortunately, the other party seemed to have seen through Roland's thoughts, so they took the initiative to speak, uttering an ethereal, soft, and very gentle voice.

“My strange son... depart, and please never return to my side.”

Hearing her say that, Roland looked at her.

"And what about you? Aren't you planning to leave here?"

"I?"

The woman's expression remained unchanged, but there seemed to be a hint of surprise in her voice.

"I cannot leave."

“I need suppression and restraint; I can’t cut them off, and they won’t let me go.”

She seemed to be explaining something, and without waiting for Roland's reply, she repeated what she had said before.

"My son."

Please don't come back to me.

Please stop loving me so deeply.

Hearing her say that, Roland frowned slightly.

Is there really no way to fix this?

Roland remembered Tiamat's situation.

The second beast is the ocean itself, which is the black wave that surrounds women. The moment this sea of ​​life returns from the imaginary space, it will automatically become a beast as soon as it appears on the earth.

However, Tiamat, as a goddess, is capable of returning.

Even FGO has implemented that form of Tiamat.

However, she is not a female creator goddess combined with waves, but rather a creator daughter who represents a woman who is self-bound.

"It's useless, anti-Genesis... Nothing in the world can sever the sea that gave birth to everything."

Although Tiamat was always planning to get rid of Roland, she was still like a gentle mother who didn't know how to refuse her child. Whenever Roland asked a question, she would give an answer.

"So as long as we can cut it off, separate it from you, and then take you away from the imaginary space, that's fine, right?"

"it's useless..."

Tiamat wanted to say something more, but this time Roland didn't listen.

"Then let's make a promise. I will come back and cut off the sea that is restricting you, so that you can return to this world—I promise."

Tiamat and Roland looked at each other.

She actually intended to refuse him, but when she saw Roland's eyes, the words she was about to say remained unspoken.

But she didn't promise anything.

They simply remained silent.

Seeing her reaction, Roland smiled.

"Alright, I'll be leaving now—oh, by the way, my name is Roland. After I rescue you from here, you can introduce yourself properly."

After leaving behind those words, Roland turned and left the imaginary space.

Long after he left, the ethereal and gentle voice once again rang out in the imaginary space, which had been so quiet that there was no sound at all.

"Roland...I'll remember that."

After Roland returned to his room, he thought about what had just happened, and his plans changed.

He originally intended to test whether gravity existed in imaginary space.

If he had known, he would have liked to try out his new idea, but since he encountered Tiamat, he didn't.

But it doesn't really matter.

After all, Roland doesn't have many moves now, but losing a few moves won't make a difference either.

The key is still Tiamat.

She said that what is born of the sea cannot be separated from the sea.

This is a fact.

Let alone humans, even if a creature like Quetzalcoatl launched a self-destructive attack, the results would be extremely minimal.

But that's similar to how, when Quetzalcoatl is at full power, attacks representing justice and good are almost ineffective against her; it's all due to this kind of conceptual empowerment.

Without these things, the problem becomes much simpler.

However, Tiamat has significant problems.

Normally, attacking Quetzalcoatl would trigger an attack from the villains, but bypassing Tiamat's Anti-Genesis is almost impossible.

Roland has a way.

Because he possesses the ability to travel to other worlds.

In this world, there's no way to bypass the anti-Genesis, but in another world, there are ways everywhere.

Even without the anti-Genesis, other aspects still require some effort, but it is not impossible to achieve.

Therefore, Roland plans to use the virtual world to connect to the first other world.

However, he didn't do it right away. Instead, after resting properly, he returned to the base camp in Fuyuki City the next day with Aozaki Touko and Ryougi Shiki.

Only then did Roland reveal that he was going to connect to the first other world.

"I see. Now we're going to check out our first other world... Hmm, that's good. It would be nice to gain something from it."

Aozaki Touko nodded in support, while Ryougi Shiki had already been told the whole story about the gods by Roland on the way.

She was quite surprised at the time—like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Now she can cross her arms and accept these kinds of topics with a blank expression.
