What followed was an extremely rough action.

"Director, this is what you asked me to do—"

"Don't blame me for what happens next."

"..."

"How could I blame you..."

Olga Marie's knees parted slightly, and her voice became much softer.

"Ian."

"Didn't I tell you—"

"Everything I have is yours..."

night--

Inside the Chaldea restaurant.

Olga Marie looked at Ian across the table with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"you……"

"What's wrong with me?"

"Nothing!" Olga Marie lowered her head slightly. "I just didn't expect you to not just leave after that... but actually accompany me for dinner."

"..."

"You say that as if I'm always like that."

"But clearly—"

Ian took Olga Marie's hand.

"If the director says just one more word, I'll stay, right?"

"..."

"I can't say that..."

Olga Marie muttered softly.

"Because I know you're definitely going to stay, so I can't say that—otherwise, if everyone starts thinking that, things will get messed up."

"besides……"

The young director looked at the man's hand covering the back of his hand.

"Although I really enjoy having your hand held like this...but there will be a lot of people around later, so I'd better exercise some restraint."

"..."

"The director is really becoming more and more considerate."

Ian didn't say much, but withdrew his hand.

"Once the singularity's repairs are complete, I'll definitely have something to catch up with you."

"Something to replenish?"

"yes--"

Ian looked at Olga Marie with interest.

"Director, do you think... that proposal was really the right one for you?"

"..."

Olga Marie almost instantly recalled Ian's previous "proposal" +——

But rather than calling it a proposal, it was more like giving the two of them a shot of stimulant.

Who would say "marry me" while doing something like that?

"Of course I don't think so!"

"But...it's not unacceptable."

"At least, you said it, didn't you?" Olga Marie drew circles on the table with her fingers, looking very girlish.

"This is enough."

"But I don't think so."

Ian recalled Ishtar in her wedding dress.

At that moment, she was as beautiful as a flower and as dazzling as a star.

Yes.

How could such a sacred moment be desecrated?

No.

Absolutely not.

"Director——"

"After this is over, I'm going to propose to you again. Are you willing to accept?"

"..."

Olga Marie's cheeks flushed.

She looked very excited by the man's words.

only--

This excitement soon turned into tears, but it was only because of the dignity of the director that the tears did not fall to the ground.

"Ian, you..."

"Did you invite me to dinner alone just to make me so happy?"

"Hmm... don't you think so?"

"I said yes!"

Olga Marie no longer cared about etiquette.

She reached across the table and left a mark of this moment on the man's cheek.

"Otherwise, I will..."

"Just..."

"I've been pestering you every day! Telling others every day that you're a heartless person! You said you'd marry me but you just won't!"

"That's a very clever 'threat' indeed..."

"..."

"..."

Although it sounded like a bad conversation, Ian and Olga Marie looked at each other and laughed.

This is the daily happiness that is hard to achieve in the hardship of repairing the singularity again and again.

"Yes, Chief."

Ian seemed to remember something and briefly ended this long-lost romance.

"Did your father really only leave you a will before he died, asking you to take care of all of Chaldea?"

"This……"

"..."

"It's okay." Seeing Olga Marie's tangled look, Ian didn't intend to ask any further questions. "If you can remember, that's the best. If not, just think of it as me asking something I shouldn't have asked."

"..."

It would have been fine if Ian hadn't said anything, but as soon as he finished speaking, Olga Marie immediately seemed to be fully focused and began to recall seriously.

only--

Such efforts did not bring any improvement in memory.

Soon, she shook her head.

"No."

"Nothing—"

"Other than telling me to take good care of this Chaldea, he didn't say anything."

"..."

This answer is not surprising at all, and it can even be said to be reasonable.

But after thinking about it for a while, Ian asked another question.

"That--"

"Director, did he ever tell you about the Holy Grail War?"

"'Holy Grail War'?"

Olga Marie showed a look of surprise.

"Are you referring to the 'Holy Grail War' that the Clock Tower calls a 'countryman's ritual'?"

"Correct."

"This kind of thing should have been mentioned more or less, right?"

Ian's words made Olga Marie think seriously again.

Soon, she nodded.

"If you say so, there are indeed some things that can slightly verify this statement."

"for example?"

"for example……"

Olga Marie's eyes flashed back to the time when she was studying in England.

"My father was away from home for a long time."

"He told me he was going to do something very important."

"When he comes back, he will have a friend by his side."

"..."

Ian felt his breathing quicken a little.

If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't know anything after hearing what Olga Marie said.

But he is different—

As a true participant, he remembered that this so-called friend was the Servant "summoned" by Olga Marie's father, Marisbilly.

It's just his friend in disguise!

original……

Did he start preparing so early?

"So, did this friend say or do anything?"

"..."

"No."

Olga Marie, unsurprisingly, shook her head.

"Father only said that this was a friend, and never mentioned anything else. As for the so-called 'Holy Grail War', I'm not sure if there is any connection."

"but……"

"But what?" Ian asked.

"Director, please tell me as much information as you can—"
