The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

It was obvious that she wanted to say something.

It's just that due to my personality, I can't express it so smoothly.

Ian certainly understood this.

So he quickly reached out and gently stroked the girl's head.

Unlike the heads I had touched before, Gray's hair was a little dry and didn't feel very good to the touch. It was a bit like hay that had been stored in a warehouse for a while.

But Ian didn't mind.

He maintained this intimate gesture, and then said:

"remember?"

"I told you—if I had the chance, I would definitely touch your head like this."

Men understand girls' minds.

This simple sentence made Gray understand something.

"that……"

The girl looked at the man in front of her who was touching her head, and after hesitating for a long time, she spoke again.

"You...are Mr. Ian after all!"

At this point, Ian knew that if he continued to deny it, Grey would be very sad.

So after a moment's silence, he nodded.

"Yes, I am Ian Pendragon."

"Gray, you didn't recognize the wrong person."

The moment she heard these words, the girl's light green eyes instantly became moist.

"That's great... I thought I'd never see you again."

"How could that happen?"

Ian sat down next to Gray and gently pressed her head against his chest.

"I haven't officially shown you what I look like yet—how could it be possible that we'll never see each other again?"

"Yeah……"

Gray's face flushed slightly.

The girl was grateful from the bottom of her heart to the man who had always encouraged her to leave Brakmoya Village.

"But I still want to know...why Mr. Ian left me at that time."

"..."

Ian pondered for a moment and then gave his answer.

"Grey."

"If it were you... and you met some girls who had the same experience as you, what would you do?"

"Of course, we should help them!" Gray answered without hesitation.

Those eyes that were extremely similar to Artoria's were emitting bursts of light.

"The moment I decided to leave Brakmoya Village—"

“I now know what it feels like to live for myself.”

"It would be great if I could share this feeling with others, right?"

"Eh……"

Having said that, Gray suddenly realized something.

She took the man's arm and asked cautiously.

"Mr. Ian... Could it be that you are going to help others who have the same experience as me?"

"..."

As Ian listened to Gray's words, the figure of Sakura Tohsaka appeared in front of him.

That was the next person he met after returning to Excalibur Gallatin.

Can it be said that the girl who fell in love with herself as a Servant regardless of everything was redeemed?

The man knew that he had no right to answer such a question on her behalf, so he could only respond to Gray with a smile.

"If it's helpful, it probably isn't."

"You can only say that we did everything we could to help her avoid a terrible fate, right?"

"As for whether it's effective or not...that's not something I can say."

"This……"

Seeing that Ian suddenly fell into a kind of inescapable sadness because of his words.

After thinking for a moment, Gray took the initiative to hold Ian's hand.

"I think...it will definitely work."

"Look, since I was able to escape from that village with Mr. Ian's help—"

"Then the other girl will surely be able to escape from her terrible fate."

"That's what Mr. Holmes calls 'reasoning by analogy'!"

After saying this, Gray laughed sheepishly, perhaps because she herself felt that she was talking nonsense.

When Ian saw her like this, he couldn't help but want to love her more.

"Gray, you are still as kind as ever."

"It's exactly the same as when I was worried about whether it would affect my mother before I ran away."

"But then again—"

Ian turned his head and looked to the other side.

That was the only window in the entire house, and at this moment, it was completely "occupied" by the white fog on the streets of London.

"Gray, how did you get here?"

This is where Ian's memory is conflicting.

London, where the singularity is located, obviously does not match the time period where Grey is located.

you can say it this way--

She absolutely shouldn't be here.

But now, she was leaning on his chest.

This means that there are some unknown things involved.

"If Mr. Ian asks this..." Gray pulled her clothes tighter and began to recall.

"That day—"

"I ran out of the village and encountered a thick fog."

"Foggy?"

"Yeah." Gray nodded, then looked towards the window Ian had just looked at.

"It's similar to the fog outside now."

"If I had to say... the 'flavor' is probably a bit stronger."

"..."

Even if Gray didn't explain further, Ian could probably understand that the "taste" in her words referred to the magic in the mist.

This is also the feeling everyone had when they first arrived at the singularity.

The thick magic power went straight into the nose, making it difficult to breathe.

"Did anything else happen before this?"

"Let me think about it..." Gray clenched her fists, as if she was recalling something seriously.

"It seemed as if a ray of light rushed up into the sky from not far away."

"When it dissipated, I came here and met Mr. Holmes."

Everything seemed to be explained clearly, yet it also seemed not to be explained clearly.

After pondering for a moment, Ian decided to ask for help from Chaldea's professional foreign aid BB.

"Gray, I'll introduce you to someone."

"Do you know someone?" The girl looked a little scared. Coming from the village of Brakmoya, she didn't seem to be very good at socializing.

"Don't be afraid, she's a good girl." Ian smiled and comforted Gray, "She's just a little naughty."

"This, this is it..."

Gray nodded cautiously.

"I understand."

After barely finishing his brief conversation with Gray, Ian directly contacted BB in Chaldea.

And just as the devil girl promised, whenever Ian looked for her, she would be there.

"Pig, what's wrong?"

"BB, I want to ask your opinion on something."

As he said this, Ian pulled Gray into his arms, allowing BB to see her.

"Eh--!"

BB reacted immediately when he saw Gray.

"You pig! Why did you find another one? Chaldea has so many women you've brought back from your philandering ways!"

"If you keep acting like this, BB won't help you take care of them!"

Upon hearing BB's remarks, Gray immediately apologized.

"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to... I didn't expect this to happen."

"It's all my fault! Please don't blame Mr. Ian!"

"..."

Gray's reaction was even bigger than BB's.

This made the devil girl cover her head.

"It's over... Looks like he's already asleep."

"You pig, can't you take care of your lower body?! Chaldea will be destroyed because of your selfish desires!"

"I wouldn't do anything like that!" Ian gave BB a displeased look.

"It wasn't long since we met this time."

"Let's not talk about this anymore—"

"BB, this is the situation now."

A few minutes later.

Ian told BB about Grey's general situation.

"This……"

The super AI girl changed her previous expression of talking dirty words and began to think seriously.

"If you say so, pig—"

"The situation may be a little complicated."

"It's a bit complicated?"
