The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

"Because I feel so sorry for you guys."

"After all, I was originally a member of the Argonauts. If I had persuaded them properly before escaping from there, perhaps the outcome would have been better, right?"

"I'm really sorry."

"That sounds like a good explanation." Ian stroked Atalanta's cheek.

"But unfortunately—"

"That's not what you're really sad about, is it?"

"W-what?" Atalanta shuddered.

"Master, please don't joke about this, okay?"

"I'm not joking."

Ian's tone turned serious.

"I don't doubt that you are sorry for this."

"But that's definitely not why you're crying."

"after all--"

"If you really wanted to cry about this, you could have gone up on deck and confessed to everyone, right?"

"..."

Atalanta lowered her head.

Obviously, what Ian said hit her heart completely.

But she seemed to find it difficult to tell the real reason.

But all this was not a problem for Ian. Before entering the room, the man already had his own answer.

"Atalanta."

"You're worried that if this continues, it will be time to leave again soon, right?"

What makes the Servants in other singularities different is that—

This was the second time Atalanta had met Ian.

Unlike the last time when she was restricted by Black Jeanne d'Arc, this time, the little cat girl was obviously much freer in her actions.

But such freedom is completely based on the singularity.

It's good to take risks with him.

only--

Such adventures always come to an end.

Once that time comes, it's time to separate.

For Atalanta, who had been abandoned since childhood, such a thing was a bit too cruel.

But at the same time——

She also knew that she could never express her concerns to Ian openly.

Otherwise, wouldn't that be putting pressure on him?

So in the end, all Atalanta could do was hide away and cry secretly.

The little cat girl did not respond to whether Ian's words were correct.

But that sad look said it all.

She didn't want to break up like this, that's all.

"..."

After fully understanding Atalanta's intentions, Ian thought for a while and then pushed her down on the bed.

"Master, Master, what are you doing..."

"Let me answer your first question first." Ian looked at Atalanta, whose face was blushing under him, without his gaze shifting even a little.

"The end of the singularity may not necessarily be the time for us to separate."

"I...maybe I can find a way to get you to Chaldea."

"What?!" Hearing this, Atalanta, who had been listless at first, suddenly shuddered. "Master, what do you mean by this?"

"You may not believe it."

Ian's hand stroked Atalanta's slender waist, as if he was appreciating a work of art.

"Nero, actually, I brought my wife back from the singularity."

"what?!"

Atalanta looked at the man in disbelief, and some beautiful faith ignited in her heart.

"Master, you are not trying to make me happy?"

"Of course not." Ian shook his head. "I wouldn't try to trick people in a way that would be discovered sooner or later."

"Since Nero can do it, I think you must have a chance too."

"It's just that I still have to think about what to do when the time comes."

"..."

Atalanta said nothing, but her legs were already restlessly moving on the bed.

Obviously, this is a sign of reconnecting with hope.

When Ian saw this, he realized that she had completely believed what he said.

He continued:

"Since I've already started, I'll tell you what's next."

"Tell me?"

"Yeah." Ian nodded, then reached out to touch other places.

Soon, a huge shadow appeared on Atalanta's face.

The girl's eyes changed little by little. She didn't know what the other party was going to do, but she had a vague feeling that it was worth looking forward to.

"Master, you are..."

"Oh, I just want to give you a little more confidence." Ian's hand gently stroked Atalanta's forehead, feeling more like playing with a pet.

"Because from now on—"

"Atalanta, I only allow you to cry when you're dating me."

"Eh?!"

Atalanta was about to say something when she felt another tremor.

The man has very cleverly grasped the girl's inner weakness, putting her in a very embarrassing situation.

To advance is to be completely defeated, and to retreat is to be absolutely insecure.

After some consideration, Atalanta chose to surrender.

"I understand."

"Very good." Ian's hands left Atalanta's cheeks and moved to her waist.

"Then what's next——"

"This is when you can cry your heart out."

More than an hour later.

Atalanta knew that she had completely lost the possibility of crying.

Because Ian would never allow himself to feel sad on a date.

Once you enter the lion-like rhythm, no matter what it is, the only result is surrender.

but--

This doesn't seem like a bad thing.

Carrying enough loot, Atalanta paid close attention to her steps and walked towards the exit of the cabin with Ian.

At this moment, she no longer had any of the sadness she had before, but was instead afraid that she might not be able to hold back his love.

only--

Ian could never have imagined that just as he had resolved Atalanta's concerns, new developments arose there.

As soon as the man came out, Mordred went straight to his side.

She stood on tiptoe and whispered in her father's ear.

"that--"

"Father, is Nero also my stepmother?"

499. Mordred wants Nero to hug him/Mashu's throat development/Banquet (4k)

"..."

Ian didn't expect that his daughter Modred would ask such a sharp question at this time.

He turned his head, looked at her beside his ear, and responded with confusion.

"Mordred, why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"It's not convenient to answer now."

Although Modred is a super naughty child, Ian knows that she actually has a sense of propriety.

Now that she can find me in front of Atalanta, it at least means that the question I just asked is very important to her.

"Answer me first!"

Modred grabbed his father's hand and started to grumble like a spoiled child.

"This……"

Looking at the face that was somewhat similar to Altria and almost identical to Morgan, Ian was suddenly at a loss.

"Ok."

"You're right—she can be considered a stepmother, I guess."

By the time he finished speaking, Ian had already prepared himself mentally.

He knew that Mordred was quite resistant to this kind of thing.

but--

This had to be said sooner or later, and no matter what her attitude was, Ian knew he had to be honest.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be an insult to Nero's unconcealed enthusiasm?

"..."

Atalanta looked at Ian and Mordred and vaguely realized something.

Soon, she very sensibly found a reason.

"that--"

"I have something I want to ask Captain Drake, so I'll go over there first."

"see you later!"

The little cat girl was very sensible and evacuated the station at the moment, leaving only Ian and Mordred here.

Having gained his independent space, the man no longer concealed his inner thoughts.

"And what—"

"I've answered your question, but why are you silent again, Xiao Mo?"
