The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

"Ian—"

The Queen of Shadow Kingdom looked at her husband.

She knew that he must have the answer to this question in his heart, otherwise he would not have been chatting so enthusiastically with BB just now.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

"..."

Now that things have come to this, Ian feels that it is time to tell Scathach more.

After all, as the Queen of the Shadow Kingdom, she can indeed do a lot of things.

but--

Just as Ian was about to speak.

Nightingale came out from inside.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, the nurse shouted to the three people on the other side.

"Everyone——"

"Ophelia is awake—"

"Do you guys want to go in and see her?"

948. Ophelia: Are you his girlfriend? / The truth before the explosion (4k)

"..."

"..."

Ian and Scathach's eyes met.

The latter quickly raised her hair and acted as if she didn't care.

"Go."

“You’re not angry…?”

"Of course I'm angry." Scathach crossed her arms, "But I think if I keep holding you here like this, you'll probably be the one who gets angry."

"so--"

"I decided to let you go and have a look."

"Besides..."

Scathach looked in the direction of Nightingale, with a hint of doubt in her wine-red eyes.

"I actually have a lot of things I want to ask her."

"..."

"I understand."

"Then I'll explain the rest to you later."

"Scathach, I'm coming!"

Seeing Ian walking into the room without hesitation, Scathach covered her chest.

Logically speaking, what I like is the way he takes absolute responsibility for what he does, but now...

Why do I feel so uncomfortable...

the other side.

Ian came to Nightingale.

"Let's go in," he said to the nurse.

"Well, let's go in."

Ever since——

The two of them walked into the room where Ophelia was.

At this moment, the outstanding graduate of the Clock Tower, who had been so proud before, was now leaning against the back of the bed. The only eye that was exposed seemed a little lonely and confused.

"..."

Somehow... No, no reason is needed.

Ian felt sincerely distressed when he saw Ophelia like this.

He spoke directly and pulled the other person back from the abyss of hesitation.

"Ophelia—"

The man's call woke the girl from her fantasy, and then she saw Ian who had "bullied" her.

only--

At this moment, she was no longer afraid of him, but felt at ease from the bottom of her heart.

"Ian, you're there!"

"Come on!"

"..."

It was a rare first time that Ophelia called him like this, so Ian naturally walked over quickly.

"You woke up—"

"..."

"Ah."

As soon as Ian came over, Ophelia immediately took his arm.

Only then did the man realize that the girl's body was so cold, as if she had just been pulled out of an ice cave.

"Ophelia, what are you doing..."

"very scary."

The girl looked up at him beside her.

Even with only one eye, Ian could feel the sadness and fear in it.

"I felt like I had gone to a very scary place... and there was no way I could come back."

"It's so scary... It's really scary..."

"..."

Ian understands Ophelia's character.

As one of the few students in the Clock Tower who can get full marks in various subjects and is recognized by the teachers, she always behaves with arrogance in her daily life.

It is extremely rare for someone to show fear like this.

only--

Looking at Ophelia like this, Ian had no intention of ridiculing her.

Because he knew what she had encountered in that mysterious space - it was her lifelong nightmare.

Thinking of this, the man hugged Ophelia in turn and said gently:

"never mind."

"It's okay now."

"You...are safe now—I'll make sure of that."

"..."

A blush gradually appeared on Ophelia's slightly pale face, which was a sign of regaining vitality.

After a while, she nodded.

"Yes, I understand."

"Ah That's good."

The two of them snuggled together for a while.

Then, Nightingale came over and said softly:

"Although it might be a little inappropriate to say such things at this time."

"but--"

"If you've just come out, it's better not to hug so vigorously. It would be bad if you get hurt inside your body."

"Eh?"

Ophelia seemed to be aware of Nightingale's existence only then.

She looked a little flustered, obviously because her proactive approach to Ian had touched her bottom line.

only--

The girl soon found that she had no way to escape from Ian's arms.

That's right.

The man hugged her tightly, leaving no room for her to break free.

"Don't worry, Ophelia."

"This is Nightingale—half of the credit for your waking up should be attributed to her."

"Nightingale..."

Ophelia muttered the name, and then suddenly understood something.

"Wait a moment!"

"Are you the famous nurse?"

"Eh?"

This time, it was Nightingale's turn to be surprised.

"Am I...that famous?"

"some!"

Ophelia nodded repeatedly, confirming that her statement was not just a spur-of-the-moment one.

"Are you really Nightingale?"

"Yes, it is."

Nightingale accepted this "admiring" look from Ophelia very calmly, and then sat next to Ian.

"I am indeed Nightingale. My current class is Ruler. I am a Servant who came to Chaldea because of Ian."

"..."

Ophelia covered her head.

"its not right……"

"Why do I remember that the Servant you summoned was Mordred..."

“It’s very complicated.”

Ian smoothed Ophelia's messy hair.

"Let's talk about it slowly."

"first--"

In the next few minutes, Ian briefly explained his relationship with Nightingale, giving Ophelia a certain preliminary understanding.

The girl's expression also became surprised because of this narration.

"Have you... already repaired so many singularities?"
