Before the man could answer, Mary made a choice for him.

There was a shower of falling petals, and Ian and the Flower Magician were hidden among them, as if they had never appeared.

“There was a sound just now.”

"Yeah, I heard that too."

"really weird……"

"Never mind, there's a lot to do today."

"Too."

As the soldiers exchanged pleasantries, they gradually left.

"..."

"What's wrong with you?" Meili touched the disguise of flower magic. "Why did you suddenly stop talking? This feeling of having to do things without your orders is not good."

"..."

Listening to Mary's words that sounded like blame but more like concern, Ian knew he had just made a serious mistake.

"sorry, I……"

"Don't explain to me why this happened now."

Mellie took Ian's hand.

"I just want to know if you'll want to do this again later. If so... I'll prepare in advance."

"Not anymore."

The man declined Mary's offer.

"I... just didn't react."

"That's good."

Mary's eyes swept across the surroundings, and then she tightened her grip on Ian a little.

"We... seem to have arrived at an extraordinary place."

"..."

"Yeah..." Ian let out a long sigh, and then adjusted to the scene in his eyes.

He and Mary were now at the junction of the desert and the oasis, and the soldiers who had just gone away were heading in another direction.

“Is this…really Jerusalem?”

"Why does it feel... even more chaotic than when we were in Unova?"

"Maybe there was an accident."

Meili said so.

"Whatever happens to you is only natural, right?"

"You said that... as if I were a jinx."

"It doesn't matter. The one I 'love' is the jinx."

"……Good for you."

Just as Mary and Ian were talking in a loving manner, a message from Chaldea arrived.

That was BB's panicked voice.

"Pig, are you okay?!"

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Ian recalled his good assistant, "It's just that this place is a little strange - is this really Jerusalem?"

"It should be..." BB's voice became a little worried.

“But I’m not sure.”

"uncertain?"

"Yeah." BB, who was in Chaldea, looked at the picture on the screen and the green data that had become a mess, and his expression looked very embarrassed.

Obviously, this is a problem that even a super AI like her cannot solve.

"The era you live in is currently being influenced by a very powerful force."

"A very powerful force?"

"Yes." BB further confirmed Ian's statement, "It seems to be a force that even Chaldea cannot compete with."

"So, there's no way to determine where you are right now."

"Even... where did Fujimaru Ritsuka and Gray go..."

BB didn't finish her words, but the meaning was already clear - because of the influence of that powerful force, she was now unable to confirm the location of the other two teams.

"It's a bad start."

Meili's comment obviously made BB even more anxious.

You know, she has always played the role of a super AI that is beyond this era in front of Ian.

Now the situation...

It's a bit too incompetent.

however--

"That's amazing, BB. You can actually contact me at a time like this?"

"Eh?"

Ian's sudden praise made the super AI girl a little uncomfortable.

Or should I say...

I feel a little unworthy of it.

"Pig, you..."

"I'm not trying to comfort you—I really think it's amazing."

Ian looked up at the sun above his head. Its light was so strong that it was difficult to open his eyes.

However, the man's tone remained as serious as ever.

"Even quantum teleportation can't determine the location—BB, you found it."

"It's really amazing, so stop blaming yourself."

"You pig..."

BB felt her eyes redden, but at the same time she understood that this was Ian's hint that he hoped she wouldn't be sad about it.

"Well, that's for sure... If it's a pig, BB will definitely find it no matter what!"

"Because BB installed a tracking program on you!"

"Is it really okay to say this so openly..." Ian felt a little helpless, but he also knew that his words had indeed played a role. "So, BB, the current situation is the same as in Unova."

"It's time to take action."

"Ok!"

To calm the self-blaming BB down temporarily, Ian simply told her not to say anything more to Olga Marie for the time being, and then ended the conversation.

"call--"

"Merry, did you hear that?"

"I heard it." Meili held the man's arm tightly, looking very calm. "It's something I haven't experienced with you."

"That sounds a little sad to me."

"Isn't this a perfect opportunity—"

Ian held up Mellie's hand.

"Be my good helper, and you'll be my only memory in the future, right?"

"Makes sense."

Having said that——

Although he mustered up the courage to do something, Ian found that without the guidance of Chaldea, he would have been unable to move forward in other times.

But fortunately, this time it was Mary who was brought with him.

This flower magician, who possessed knowledge from the Age of Gods, quickly offered advice that was very useful in this era.

"I said--"

Meili stretched out her finger and pointed to where the soldiers had just left.

"Since those soldiers dressed in British attire are heading in that direction."

"How about we... follow them?"

"Don't worry." Several petals flashed in the flower magician's hands, "surrounding" the two of them like a protective shield.

"With this as cover, we won't be discovered anyway."

"Even if——"

Mary pointed to her lips with her other finger expressionlessly.

"You can ask me to do something for you at this time."

"That kind of thing... let's talk about it later."

"We have to act now."

"it is good."

I have to say, Mary's advice really works.

Following the departing soldiers, the two soon left the junction of the desert and the oasis.

And because of Mary's "cover", the two of them now became the ones "chasing" the soldiers.

"Want to get closer?"

"……Um."

Following Mary's magic, Ian moved closer to the soldiers on white horses.

In their intermittent conversation, the man heard something he had not heard just now.

"Tell me—how many people are needed this time?"

"I don't know, so don't ask any more questions. Just do as you are told. There will be no good consequences for disobeying the orders of the Round Table."

"Too."

"..."

Britain?

Round table?

Familiar words swirled in the man's head, eventually leading everything to a place he was familiar with.

That is Camelot.

"Merry—"

"Are you ready to start?" The Flower Magician responded almost instantly. "I've been waiting for you to speak."

"Ah."

Although it looked very much like his former British colleague, Ian knew that if he just thought about it, he would not come to any conclusion.

At least--

We need to find out what they mean by "round table".

"I understand."

Like a puppet that had received an order, the moment the man confirmed his intention to take action, Ian felt a surge of magical power.
