A light appeared on Scathach's hand.

As the queen of the Shadow Kingdom, she can detect life and death very easily.

"this--"

"Ophelia is indeed still alive."

"but……"

Scathach looked at the "basket" in front of her.

"She's in a very special place now."

"If you want to rescue her—"

"Maybe it's not as simple as I thought."

944. Scathach: I'm a bit sour/Ophelia rescue plan (4k)

"So where is it—"

Ian continued directly following Scathach's words.

"Ophelia, where exactly is it?"

"..."

Scathach turned around and looked at her husband.

Holding the Gae Bolg Alternative in her hand, she looks heroic and has the aura of a queen.

"You seem to care about her a lot—would you be so reluctant to see her even if it's just a second late?"

"It's not a question of willingness, Scathach."

"It's a promise between her and me."

Ian looked his wife straight in the eye, not backing down even a little.

"If you've promised someone something, you must complete it no matter what. You don't like people who don't keep their promises, do you?"

"..."

"Too."

Scathach smiled, as if she had figured something out.

"So--"

"I'll tell you."

"Actually, if you say she's alive, I don't think that's the right thing to say. I don't know what happened in Chaldea before, but judging by the current situation, she must have suffered an extremely severe shock."

"so……"

"Her current 'body'—if it can be called a body—is in a state that is absolutely inaccessible under normal circumstances. If you rashly enter, you will definitely encounter trouble beyond your imagination."

"..."

Ian's expression darkened.

He knew what Scathach meant by this.

"So, Ophelia, there's no hope?"

"..."

Scathach hesitated for a moment, her expression as if she was considering whether or not she should tell the truth.

But in the end, she sighed and said;

"Do not."

"It can be saved."

"There are just two difficult problems that even I can't solve."

"What's the problem?" Ian asked.

"First of all—"

Scathach looked at the "basket" in front of her that responded to BB's drive.

"According to what you said, this thing can't be opened directly. So if we want to bring the 'soul' of the girl named Ophelia back to reality, there will be a so-called 'barrier'."

"That's one of them."

"Second."

"No matter what, the human body is still unable to withstand such a terrifying impact. That means her real 'body' is likely no longer in existence or cannot be restored by conventional means."

"Even if we solve problem one, we'll be blocked by problem two—there won't be enough space to house the 'souls'."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

It’s not that Scathach doesn’t want to help.

She could see that her husband really wanted to fulfill the promise he had made to Ophelia.

only……

There are simply too many obstacles waiting for us now.

The Queen of the Shadow Kingdom doesn't want to contribute, but she has no way to do so.

After all, she only knew how to reach the realm of death, not how to help people escape from death.

but--

Scathach quickly noticed Ian's expression.

He didn't give up.

Yes.

He is thinking.

He's trying.

That was the way he had behaved in Fuyuki.

now--

Once again, it completely became a reality!

Scathach's face turned slightly red.

As the queen of the Shadow Kingdom, it was difficult for her to confess to others that she just liked the way her husband worked hard - that would be somewhat inappropriate.

However, Scathach also realized that Ian must have come up with some idea, which is why he started to think about it.

"Just tell me what you think of - as long as I think it's possible and feasible, I will do my best to do it."

"..."

Ian didn't answer Scathach.

Under the gaze of the Queen of Shadow Kingdom, he suddenly asked BB a question.

"BB, given the current situation, there's no way the people inside can 'get out' of the basket, right?"

"Um,"

BB nodded.

"Indeed it is."

"That……"

The man's eyes became firm.

"What if it's the other way around?"

"On the other hand?"

The super AI girl understood Ian's meaning almost instantly.

"no!"

"Pig, you're planning on going inside Ophelia's 'basket'? Are you crazy?!"

"Do I look crazy to you?"

Ian looked at the baby in front of him. He knew that she said that because she was worried about him.

"Answer me—"

"Does this possibility exist?"

"..."

BB was silent for a long time, and finally nodded.

She couldn't refuse the man's question. After all, she had already agreed to serve him well.

"exist."

"after all……"

"The 'basket' is the foundation for maintaining the soul's existence. If you open it and prevent people from coming out, it won't cause any problems—"

"but!"

BB started to get anxious again.

"But if you go in, you'll be in the same situation as Ophelia—what if you can't come back?"

"Let's talk about it later if you can't come back."

Ian gave a crisp smile.

"I don't think I should be so unlucky."

"no!"

BB became even more anxious now.

"Is this a question of whether it's unlucky or not?!"

"This is a major event that concerns the entire Chaldea! If you don't come back, you're going to cause chaos!"

"Aren't you and the director still here?"

Ian touched the baby who was about to stamp his feet in anxiety.

"And there are other Masters too—how can the hope of mankind rest on me alone?"

"..."

This means that he is determined to go in.

BB knew that he couldn't stop it alone, so he could only "ask for help" from Nightingale on the other side.

This busty woman would probably stop her master Ian from going into a place where there's a high probability he won't be able to come back!

You know, this guy even put on Ian's clothes! No matter how you think about it, their relationship is pretty deep, right?!

however--

But things did not develop at all as BB had expected.

When the super AI girl looked in the direction of Nightingale, she found that the angel in white had put her hands together and looked like she was praying seriously.

If you listen carefully, you can even hear words like "Lord, your most devout believer, Florence Nightingale--"

Then, under the gaze of Scathach and BB, Nightingale walked up.

Then, she hugged Ian, kissed him directly on the neck, and whispered;

"I understand."

"Please go early and come back early."

"..."

BB was confused.
