Seventh Singularity, Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia world.
"I see. So this is the experience of becoming Romani Archaman?"
Wise King Gilgamesh looked at Romani Archaman in the video with interest. He chuckled: "In a sense, it really makes one not know what to say."
Although he said that, apart from having a better attitude towards Romani Archaman, Wise King Gilgamesh didn't hold much goodwill towards the other characters just now.
For instance, Marisbury and Lev. Facing these two, Wise King Gilgamesh's eyes were filled with 'disgust'. If these two guys appeared before him, he would kill them without mercy.
Merlin looked at Wise King Gilgamesh with a smile and said: "Romani has had it very hard, hasn't he? Otherwise, I wouldn't have supported him in secret."
Since the Human Order Incineration began, Merlin had been supporting Chaldea in secret.
Regarding this, Romani Archaman also found out through Magical Merli.
Therefore, although Doctor Roman often complained about Merlin and even spoke ill of him behind his back, in reality, he was still very grateful for his help.
"It has been very hard." Wise King Gilgamesh nodded slightly, then said with a smile: "However, right now, he's probably panicking to death. When Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash find out his identity, their expressions will surely be quite a sight."
Although Wise King Gilgamesh hadn't literally met Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash yet, through the videos and other means, he was already very familiar with their personalities.
So Wise King Gilgamesh really wanted to know what interesting things would happen after Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash learned Romani Archaman's true identity.
"Well, although they don't know his identity yet, their expressions right now are indeed very shocked."
Merlin showed a somewhat 'joyful' smile. As if he had seen something, he spoke: "It seems that after some hidden images were exposed, it made them understand something."
"Oh?" Wise King Gilgamesh showed a look of interest. He also looked into the distance and smiled: "It seems that is indeed the case."
To the side, Siduri watched the conversation between King Gilgamesh and Merlin. She tilted her head, momentarily confused.
She obviously didn't quite understand why the two of them were laughing so happily.
Type-Moon/Fate World, Sixth Singularity, Sacred Round Table Domain.
"Is this what happened back then? That guy... as expected, he didn't commit suicide."
Da Vinci watched her own appearance. She wasn't very surprised; after all, as a universal person, she could be said to have a very special status within Chaldea.
However, upon seeing Marisbury commit suicide by gun, she still frowned slightly.
From the very beginning, she had disliked this man, even though he had always maintained a gentle smile.
His attitude towards her was also quite good, but Da Vinci instinctively disliked Marisbury, the first Director. However, she still didn't deny everything he had done.
For all of humanity, Marisbury was quite dedicated. To face future crises, he united countless forces and spent an untold amount of money to create Chaldea.
Although he did many things later that people found repulsive, at the very least, everything he did was for humanity.
And when facing death, he was also very calm, as if his life was not worth mentioning compared to Chaldea.
"The Director... as expected, he didn't commit suicide."
Mash looked at the first Director, her eyes somewhat dazed. After experiencing so many things, she already understood many, many things.
But even now, Mash still held respect for the first Director. After all, no matter what, he was the person who created 'her'.
So at this moment, when she saw Marisbury commit suicide under the pressure of the 'unknown person', her expression seemed quite shocked.
In fact, when Marisbury died, no one in Chaldea dared to say for sure that the Director had committed suicide.
Because Director Marisbury had been working at high intensity just a few hours prior; how could he suddenly commit suicide?
However, based on various investigations at the scene, all the evidence in the end could only prove that Director Marisbury had committed suicide.
Subsequently, with Director Olga Marie taking office and the appearance of Singularity F, the matter was left unsettled.
Looking at the video now, Mash watched Marisbury commit suicide out of helplessness under the coercion of others, finally learning what happened back then.
At the same time, Mash was also very puzzled. Given Director Marisbury's level of magecraft, if he had wanted to resist, even if the final result was death, the person who wanted to kill him...
...would surely have been discovered by everyone, right? So why didn't Director Marisbury fight back?
Mash was very confused, but her confusion only lasted for a short while, because compared to Director Marisbury's death...
...the scene he saw in his dream was the most shocking of all!
"Is it that Holy Grail War? I remember you mentioned it to me while we were resting, Mash," Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke up. Although she was just an ordinary person...
...her powers of observation were quite strong. In previous battles, she had used her observation skills to assist Mash and the other Servants.
Compared to the death of the first director, Marisbury, or the conversation between Dr. Roman and Professor Lev regarding 'Mash'...
...Fujimaru Ritsuka felt that the most valuable piece of information in the video currently playing was the first director Marisbury's dream.
In the dream, he mentioned the Holy Grail War and the news of his victory.
And behind him stood a figure. Who was that figure? A Servant? Or a human collaborator?
Judging by the other party's tone and expression, he didn't have a superior-subordinate relationship with them. This seemed a bit abnormal, as most Magi treat Servants like Familiars.
A Familiar is not exactly a high-level thing.
So in the minds of most Magi, Servants are not much different from Familiars, and thus they treat them very poorly.
Director Marisbury was the same; his attitude toward Servants was merely to use them as 'weapons.'
So at this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka quietly had an answer in her heart: that figure might be Director Marisbury's collaborator, and they weren't a Servant.
"Yes, Senpai."
Unaware of Fujimaru Ritsuka's inner thoughts, Mash nodded slightly, remembering that she had told her Senpai before about Director Marisbury participating in the Holy Grail War.
With a complex expression, she said, "However, in the Holy Grail War I know of, Director Marisbury was on the losing side. The winner was a Master who had a Saber."
"Faking his own defeat."
Da Vinci wasn't surprised. Her tone was very calm as she said, "He faked the illusion of a Saber's victory and the illusion of his own regrettable withdrawal. This is a very normal move. After all, if he had won the 'Holy Grail War' openly, he would definitely have been noticed by those with ulterior motives."
"But... in that case, who is he—or she?"
Even Da Vinci immediately noticed the existence standing behind Marisbury, sharing the same thought as Fujimaru Ritsuka.
She felt it was unlikely to be a Servant, as Marisbury's attitude could be described as very good, as if he were treating someone on equal footing.
Magi who are friendly toward Servants are indeed quite rare.
The scene fell into a brief silence. The information revealed by the video broadcast so far was still a bit too sparse.
Even though 'key information' had appeared, they couldn't proceed with the reasoning due to a lack of various data.
In the Magical Girl Illya World.
"Eh? 2004 Japan? Singularity F?"
Illya caught a very important piece of information, and the light vanished from her eyes because—wasn't this time period right now?!!!!!
Whoa!!! That means! In another timeline's present, a Holy Grail War happened in their world?
Wait... it seems about the same. Aren't she and Miyu currently collecting the cards of the seven Servants?
In other words, in a sense, are they also carrying out 'Holy Grail War' activities?
Wait, if that's the case, then could this world also face the destruction of human history?!
Thinking of this, Illya's expression became even more 'desperate.' It wasn't that she was over-imagining things; based on the information revealed in the video, this was highly likely to be the reality.
"Calm down, Illya!"
Seemingly seeing Illya's 'desperate' expression, magical ruby quickly added, "Even if human history is destroyed, with my existence, you can still become a Servant."
"Aaaahhhhh!!!!"
magical ruby's remark made Illya even more 'desperate.' She didn't want to become a Servant at all!!!
While Illya and magical ruby were playing around...
...on the other side, magical sapphire looked at Miyu and said calmly, "Lady Miyu, did you notice anything?"
Miyu had been silent from the start, as if thinking about something. So magical sapphire believed that Lady Miyu must have seen something to have such an expression.
"...That attitude."
Hearing magical sapphire's words, Miyu looked at Dr. Roman in the video and murmured to herself, "Could it be him?"
"Him?" magical sapphire instantly understood that Lady Miyu was talking about that Romani Archaman.
Clearly, Miyu had guessed it, because from the beginning, she believed the protagonists of this video were Romani Archaman and Mash.
Marisbury's attitude toward Mash was very indifferent, but when dealing with Dr. Roman, even though he was just an ordinary doctor, his attitude was somewhat warm.
It was as if they were old friends who had known each other for years. As soon as the two met and spoke, Marisbury even teased the other about whether he was studying magecraft, while Dr. Roman laughed at how he still loved drinking black tea as much as ever.
Later, Dr. Roman, who seemed to have seen something terrifying, expressed his desire to join Marisbury's Chaldea.
Marisbury also agreed very readily. Although this detail wasn't explicitly shown in the video, judging from the scene transitions...
...Marisbury held an attitude of great trust toward Dr. Roman.
And that attitude! It was exactly the same as the one toward that 'mysterious person' in his dream.
"But if it were him, why would he have appeared in the Holy Grail War back then?"
Just like Da Vinci, Fujimaru Ritsuka, and the others, even though Miyu vaguely guessed that the mysterious person was Dr. Roman, she also didn't know why he could appear in the Holy Grail War due to a lack of information.
From his current performance—not knowing magecraft, knowing a bit of medicine, and seemingly being an ordinary person who knows nothing else—how could he possibly intervene in a Holy Grail War?
After all, a real Holy Grail War isn't as simple as her and Illya snatching cards.
It's a war where real Servants descend and kill each other. Miyu knew how tragic such a war could be. When her brother ended the 'Holy Grail War' and came before her...
...he was practically 'covered in wounds.' So Miyu didn't think that a Dr. Roman, who only knew a little medicine, didn't know magecraft, and hadn't shown anything else, could survive that kind of cruel Holy Grail War.
"It's very strange, very strange, very strange." Miyu couldn't figure it out, so she said 'very strange' three times in a row.
However, the video hadn't finished playing yet, so she chose to continue watching.
After all, no matter what, her questions would be answered in the following video. At the same time, Miyu was also very curious.
Just what kind of scene was it that Dr. Roman saw?
The video continued playing.
*Whoosh!*
At this moment, the door was opened, accompanied by a female voice: "Excuse me..."
"Hi~ It's fine, please come in~~~" Romani Archaman spoke leisurely. Then, seeing that the newcomer was someone he didn't recognize, he shouted in great surprise, "Eh!!! Who are you!!!"
At this time, Romani Archaman had just finished his Pocky and was about to pick up his favorite strawberry cake to start eating when a stranger suddenly appeared.
I believe anyone would be startled, right?
Not only was Romani Archaman startled, but the girl who suddenly appeared was also frightened at this moment. She hadn't expected a man to be sitting in her room.
"Th-that..."
This girl was, naturally, Fujimaru Ritsuka. She looked at Dr. Roman with a subtle expression, as if wanting to explain something.
However, Dr. Roman was holding the strawberry cake in one hand and a fork in the other, pointing at Fujimaru Ritsuka as he said, "This is my hideout for skipping work! Who gave you permission to come in?"
Speaking of this, Dr. Roman blushed a bit. After all, no one can say with a straight face that this is the place where they skip work.
Fujimaru Ritsuka also walked toward Dr. Roman, her expression somewhat helpless as she said, "I was brought here and told this was my room."
"This is your room?!" Dr. Roman had a big reaction. He seemed to realize something and covered his face, saying very helplessly, "Ah! I see! The last person has finally arrived."
"Um... may I ask who you are?" Fujimaru Ritsuka also asked for his identity at this time.
Hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka ask about him, Dr. Roman quickly recovered his composure. He smiled and said, "I am Romani Archaman, the head of the medical department. Everyone likes to refer to me as Dr. Roman for short."
"The head?!" Fujimaru Ritsuka, who had just joined Chaldea, immediately bowed and apologized, saying, "S-sorry! I'm sorry for disturbing your rest!"
"No, no~ I'm just a mere doctor."
After getting to know each other, Dr. Roman was also very polite. Then he said somewhat strangely, "By the way, Spiritron Transfer is about to start, right? I heard all the staff members have been mobilized."
"Um... actually..." At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression also appeared quite subtle.
Several scenes then appeared, recounting how Fujimaru Ritsuka was originally supposed to be one of the personnel participating in the first mission. However, because she was too tired, she ended up falling asleep during the strategy meeting.
This attitude directly infuriated the Director, so Fujimaru Ritsuka was kicked out of this first mission by Olga Marie.
Dr. Roman made a cup of coffee for Fujimaru Ritsuka and teased, "So you mean you angered the Director, and she removed you from the list for the first mission?"
"Yes."
Fujimaru Ritsuka lowered her head helplessly. She didn't want to, but she was really too tired at that time, and while listening to the strategy meeting...
...for some reason, by the time she realized it, she had already fallen asleep. When she woke up again, she was facing the angry Director.
"In that case~" Dr. Roman said with a hint of happiness, "I'm actually the same kind of person as you."
"Eh?" Fujimaru Ritsuka was puzzled, not understanding why Dr. Roman would say that.
Dr. Roman smiled and said, "The Director kicked me out on the grounds that 'as long as Romani is present, the atmosphere won't get serious.' I had no choice but to come here and be depressed by myself."
"So that's how it is." Fujimaru Ritsuka believed Dr. Roman's words.
"Since that's the case," Dr. Roman said, holding his coffee and smiling warmly, "as fellow idle people, let's deepen our friendship."
"Oh, okay..."
Fujimaru Ritsuka showed a helpless expression, and finally, the two 'clinked' their cups and drank a cup of coffee.
Later, Fujimaru Ritsuka asked about the situation at Chaldea, and Dr. Roman told her the information in detail.
"In summary, that's the structure of Chaldea." Dr. Roman's interest was piqued, and he continued, "This is an underground facility built on a snow-capped mountain at an altitude of 6,000 meters."
Before Dr. Roman could finish, the communication device rang. Dr. Roman pressed his device, and Professor Lev's avatar appeared on it.
Dr. Roman also greeted him, "Hello, Lev."
"Romani," Lev's voice rang out in the room, and he said very seriously, "Spiritron Transfer is about to begin. Just in case, can you come over for a bit?"
Dr. Roman frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Did something happen?"
On the other side, Professor Lev calmly looked at Director Olga Marie ahead and the other personnel participating in this operation, continuing, "Team A is in good condition, but several abnormal phenomena have appeared among those in other groups, including Team B, who haven't adapted yet."
"Then I'll go give them some anesthesia." Dr. Roman indicated that he understood.
Professor Lev confirmed, "Please hurry. You're in the infirmary, right? From there, you should be able to arrive in two minutes."
As he spoke, a strange smile once again appeared at the corner of Professor Lev's mouth, as if he had seen something.
"OK." Dr. Roman naturally agreed, even though he wasn't actually in the infirmary right now.
"Don't be late." After saying this, Professor Lev turned off the communication device.
On the other side, after Dr. Roman finished his call, Fujimaru Ritsuka commented slightly, "This isn't the infirmary, is it?"
"Well~" Dr. Roman said with a subtle expression, "they shouldn't blame me for being a little late. Anyway, Team A seems to be fine. Oh~ the man just now was..."
Dr. Roman wanted to introduce the other party to Fujimaru Ritsuka.
But Fujimaru Ritsuka said with a smile, "Professor Lev, right? I already met him earlier. He said he's a technician working here."
"Hahahaha." Dr. Roman laughed and added, "Calling himself a technician is quite modest. He's the Magus who created the telescope used to observe Chaldeas, the Near-Future Observation Lens: Sheba."
"By the way, the person who constructed the Spiritron Transfer summoning and awakening system was the former director. The Pseudo-Spiritron Computer required to realize this theory was provided by the Atlas Institute. This experiment was only possible by gathering talents from many sides."
While Dr. Roman was speaking and explaining, two minutes seemed to have quietly passed.
And at this time, the other members also began the first mission's activities.
Dr. Roman stood up and said with a smile, "An ordinary doctor like me is useless even if I go, but since I've been called by name, I have to go."
As he spoke, Dr. Roman looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said, "Thank you for chatting with me, Fujimaru."
"No," Fujimaru Ritsuka said, holding her coffee and looking at Dr. Roman, "you're too polite."
Dr. Roman continued to smile and invited her, "Once things calm down, come visit the infirmary. Next time, I'll treat you to some delicious cake."
Just as Dr. Roman finished speaking, a 'Boom!' of an explosion rang out.
Both Dr. Roman and Fujimaru Ritsuka were stunned at this moment.
At the same time, the room that was originally quite bright dimmed down in an instant, and alarm sirens began to wail...
"What happened?" Dr. Roman was momentarily stunned.
Fujimaru Ritsuka, accustomed to such things, asked, "Is it a power outage?"
Dr. Roman retorted, "How could Chaldea possibly have a power outage?"
"Emergency situation!"
"A fire has broken out in the Central Power Station and the Central Control Room."
At that moment, a report spoken in a monotone, emotionless voice rang out.
"A fire?!" Dr. Roman's expression was one of extreme shock, as if this were something that simply could not happen.
The voice continued, "The containment walls of the central area will seal in 240 seconds. All personnel, please evacuate immediately through Gate 2."
The coffee in Fujimaru Ritsuka's hand fell to the floor. She muttered to herself, "The Control Room is..."
In that instant, Mash's figure flashed through Fujimaru Ritsuka's mind. Without a word, her body moved, and she sprinted toward the Control Room.
"Wait!"
Dr. Roman tried to stop Fujimaru Ritsuka, but hearing the repeating announcements around him, he said no more and began to run as well. The two of them arrived at the Control Room together.
The Control Room was now a ruin, with massive amounts of stone fallen and a sea of fire ahead.
"How horrible..." Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka was clearly shocked. It had been perfectly fine not long ago, and now it had turned into a disaster scene.
"Is only Chaldeas intact?" Dr. Roman looked at the planet-like object ahead and said, "This is very likely sabotage."
"Eh?!" Fujimaru Ritsuka was just about to ask who could do something so inhumane.
The emotionless reporting voice rang out again.
"Confirmed: Power equipment has ceased operation. Insufficient power generation. Switching to backup power. An anomaly has occurred; personnel, please perform manual switching."
"This is bad!!!" Upon hearing this, Dr. Roman looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said quickly, "I'm going to the Underground Power Station."
"It's too dangerous!!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka instinctively tried to stop him.
But Dr. Roman was already moving. He said rapidly, "We can't let Chaldea's Pilot Light go out. You, hurry back the way you came!"
"Dr. Roman!!!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka reached out, only able to watch helplessly as his back disappeared into the distance.
At that moment, the mechanical reporting voice rang out again: "180 seconds until containment wall closure. Personnel remaining in the central area, please evacuate immediately through Gate 2."
However, Fujimaru Ritsuka ignored the mechanical voice and Dr. Roman's words. She ran deeper in, and after climbing over the rubble, she reached the place where the Spiritron Transfer was prepared.
Fujimaru Ritsuka checked the personnel inside the coffins while shouting, "Mash!! Where are you?!"
While Fujimaru Ritsuka was searching for Mash, another voice appeared from the side.
Unlike the cold female voice from before, this time it was a male voice.
"System: Spiritron Transfer entering final stage. Coordinates: January 30, 2004 AD, Japan, Fuyuki."
"Laplace: Transfer protection established. Singularity additional factor slot secured. Anti-Summoning System set."
"Master, please perform final adjustments."
Fujimaru Ritsuka ignored these voices because she heard the sound of a small animal in this room.
"Fou~ Fou~"
Hearing this sound, Fujimaru Ritsuka rushed over and finally saw the figure of the pink-haired girl trapped under a stone. She cried out, "Mash!!!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka hurried down. Beside Mash was a very cute mascot named Fou.
Perhaps having heard Fujimaru Ritsuka's voice, Mash slowly opened her eyes and said weakly, "Senpai?"
"Mash! Hang in there!" Fujimaru Ritsuka ran over quickly, her voice full of anxiety. "I'll save you right away!!"
"No... this..."
Mash knew the state of her body, and her tone was hesitant.
Fujimaru Ritsuka's pupils shook. Seeing the blood pooling around the lower half of Mash's body, she said nothing more and slowly crouched down, intending to lift the massive stone crushing Mash with her bare hands.
Sizzle!!!
Fujimaru Ritsuka's hands touched the stone, and the heat burned her, but she covered her hands with her sleeves and prepared to keep lifting.
Mash looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said weakly, "Don't worry about me. You... should... hurry and escape."
"If I'm escaping, you're coming with me, Mash!!!" Fujimaru Ritsuka used every ounce of strength she had to try and lift the stone, but she was simply too weak to move it at all.
As if sensing what was about to happen next, Mash said weakly, "Forget about me, run quickly. There's no time left."
But Fujimaru Ritsuka refused, "I won't!"
Vrrr!!!
At that moment, a strange sound effect played, and the male voice from before rang out again.
"Warning to observation staff: The state of Chaldeas has changed."
!!!!
Both Mash and Fujimaru Ritsuka looked up at the planet-like object above.
In that instant, it turned into a scorching ball of fire. This scene seemed to herald something terrible.
The male voice continued, "Sheba's near-future observation data has been rewritten. On the Earth one hundred years into the future, human survival cannot be confirmed. The future of humanity cannot be guaranteed."
Mash watched this, unable to believe it. "Chaldeas..."
"Central containment walls sealed." At this point, the female voice that had been telling everyone to evacuate rang out again. She said calmly, "90 seconds until facility sterilization begins."
The large door Fujimaru Ritsuka had entered through was now firmly shut; it was no longer possible to leave.
Mash understood this, of course. She said with self-reproach, "Senpai, I'm sorry. It's all because of me."
"No, it's not." Fujimaru Ritsuka wanted to say it wasn't her fault, but soon she forced a smile and continued, "Forget it. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it."
Perhaps knowing she couldn't get out, Fujimaru Ritsuka sat down beside Mash and said softly, "Mash, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, thank you." Mash looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka, her eyes filled with an expression of deep 'gratitude'.
"Searching for a qualified Master... searching..." the male voice rang out again.
"Senpai." Mash looked at the sea of fire ahead and spoke slowly, "From here, you can't see the sky at all."
"That's true." Hearing Mash's words, Fujimaru Ritsuka's heart trembled slightly, but she quickly acted as if nothing were wrong. "It's a blizzard here all year round. I hope I can take you to see the sky someday, Mash."
"Senpai..." Mash's hand trembling as she raised it. She looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said, "I'm sorry, but could you give me your hand?"
"Yes, okay. Here."
Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded, wiped her hands on her clothes, and then reached out with both hands to hold Mash's hand.
At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression was incredibly gentle.
Through Fujimaru Ritsuka's hand, Mash seemed to feel'something', and her expression also became very soft.
"Fou~!"
At that moment, Fou looked up. Countless stones began falling from above.
This was clearly the aftershock caused by the previous explosion.
"Resetting Candidate No. 48 as Master." The male voice rang out once more, saying calmly, "Anti-Summoning System: Activate. Commencing Spiritron Transfer!"
The screen went dark for a moment.
Vrrr!!!!
Accompanied by the appearance of a soft blue tunnel, the male voice continued, "3, 2, 1 until Spiritron Transfer begins!"
"All processes complete. Commencing actual verification: First Order."
The entire screen fell into darkness once again.
Outside the video.
One-Punch Man World.
"Is this the reason why she's the Last Master of humanity?" Tatsumaki frowned slightly. She had originally wondered why Fujimaru Ritsuka was the only Master in Chaldea.
At first, Tatsumaki thought Fujimaru Ritsuka had some special talent, which was why she was chosen as the Last Master.
But no matter how she thought about it later, Tatsumaki felt something was off. In the face of a disaster that could destroy the world, how could they only choose one Master to handle everything?
Now it seemed there was a mole inside Chaldea who blew up all the other Masters, and Fujimaru Ritsuka luckily survived and became the Last Master.
"It seems so." Genos looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka in the video, his voice full of surprise. "She has great luck, actually avoiding the explosion during her first mission, and then entering the so-called Spiritron Transfer—traveling through time—just as the rocks were falling."
And according to the previous inventory video, Fujimaru Ritsuka was clearly alive and well in the future.
"However, as for the traitor, I suspect it's that Professor Lev."
Genos's expression was very certain, because in the previous two scenes, that so-called Professor Lev had shown a very'strange' expression.
Furthermore, just as the Spiritron Transfer was about to begin, he told Dr. Roman to head to the Control Room within two minutes.
If Fujimaru Ritsuka hadn't talked with Dr. Roman for a while, successfully delaying him for two minutes, then Dr. Roman would likely have been caught right in the blast when he arrived.
He would have been dead for sure.
In addition, before Marisbury died, he seemed to be talking to someone he knew very well.
Although it wasn't certain if that person was Lev, Genos now felt that regardless of whether it was him or not...
This explosion in Chaldea definitely had something to do with that Professor Lev.
"Is that so? But if he wanted to infiltrate Chaldea, he wouldn't need to go to such great lengths, would he?"
Saitama scratched his head, not denying Genos's words. After all, they could see Lev's abnormality quite clearly through the video.
What Saitama found strange was that if the guy intended to blow up Chaldea, why did he help Chaldea create that Sheba thing?
To allow them to observe the future better? It was completely contradictory.
Anyway, if it were Saitama, he would never do something that would help his enemy like that.
"Maybe the original Lev is already dead, and someone else has taken his place."
Tatsumaki said very calmly, "We have Monsters here who can do things like that. That world has those strange Magus existences; it's not impossible to infiltrate Chaldea. Even the best-laid plans have flaws."
"I see, that makes sense." Genos lowered his head, pondering, "If that's the case, then everything seems to be explained. After all, that Lev was a Magus who joined Chaldea, and he was able to develop something like Sheba that can view the future."
"It also proves he hoped to prevent future disasters, but now that he can do something like this, it means he isn't himself anymore."
"Hmph~ Exactly~"
Seeing Genos agree with her, Tatsumaki gave a somewhat arrogant hum, then looked at Saitama beside her, seemingly wanting his response.
"Um..."
Saitama unhurriedly picked up a beef roll from the hot pot. He said helplessly, "While that's a strong possibility, I think we should just watch the video for now. The content later will provide the answer."
Why think so much~ Just eat first!!!
Detective Conan World.
"Humanity's extinction again. Can't they come up with a more original reason?"
Kudo Shinichi complained slightly. This time he had a general understanding of the plot: basically, humanity might go extinct on Earth in nearly a hundred years, although the specific reason was unknown.
But what was certain was that if Chaldea didn't take action, humanity would probably be finished.
Thinking of this, Kudo Shinichi felt a bit of a headache. For some reason, this overlapped a bit with Riku and Shuvi.
Dammit, saving humanity again!!!!!!
Could this familiar plot be about to repeat itself?
Could there be another tragedy later?! And Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash get along so well, even though they just met.
But Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't even care about her own life to save Mash. Please let nothing happen to such a good person.
Mash was the same; when she saw Fujimaru Ritsuka coming to save her, her eyes sparkled with starlight.
Kudo Shinichi believed that at that moment, Mash truly accepted Fujimaru Ritsuka as her Senpai, because she was just like the 'Senpai' Dr. Roman had described.
Besides... this senior is an ordinary person.
From behind, Mash tremblingly reached out; Fujimaru Ritsuka considerately wiped her hand, then clasped Mash's fingers with both of theirs.
If he hadn't watched No Game No Life Zero, Kudo Shinichi would have squealed about 'eating candy' right now and gleefully started dissecting every conspiracy hidden in the footage.
Munching sweets while predicting how the tale would end.
But today he had zero appetite for analysis; he'd practically given up thinking and just wanted to watch the video.
The wounds Riku and Shuvi the couple had dealt him were simply too deep.
Every tiny hint in the current footage screamed to Kudo Shinichi that blades lay ahead—greatsword-sized ones.
"Is this the world you saw, Romani Archaman?"
Even though the heisei holmes had momentarily abandoned thought, he remained the famed detective.
Watching Sheba's vision of humanity's future, he recalled what Doctor Roman had seen at the very start of the video.
Countless hands emerging from the void... seizing the entire world; in a sense, the world had been destroyed.
After that, Doctor Roman had raced to Master every technology, not even pausing to watch a passing firework.
Which, in a way, meant he had known this moment would come—who knew how many years in advance.
Remembering Roman's gentle smile and the way he'd offered Fujimaru Ritsuka cake, Kudo Shinichi felt the man hardly fit the 'puppet-Master' mold; he was more a classic softie.
