Anime Crossover: Master is Not Here Today

Roman and Leonardo da Vinci were both surprised and delighted.

The good news is that Mashu's body can be completely healed, but the bad news is that her problem was solved so quickly.

Mash, the younger generation, was a designed test-tube baby conceived through artificial insemination within Chaldea. She is not an artificial human, but a real human being.

However, due to prioritizing Master aptitude and magic circuits, their lifespan is very short. Although designed test-tube babies usually cease life activities around the age of thirty, Mash's physical lifespan is shortened even further due to the experiment of fusing with a Servant, and she will cease activity at the age of eighteen.

Before heading to the Grand Temple of Time, Mash's physical functions had already reached their limit. Although it was difficult to talk about, regardless of the final outcome of the battle, Mash's body could no longer continue.

"—It's just a slight modification to the body."

A voice identical to Roman's, but deeper and colder, came from behind Gudao and his junior Mashu. Then, appearing before them was Goetia, who looked exactly like Roman, and came from another world.

The other party was in charge of Mashu's treatment this time.

He should have been by Matthew's side in this situation, but due to the other party's request, he could only stay here and wait for the treatment results with everyone.

However, Roman had no doubt about what this Goetia said. Although the other person was not the Goetia he knew, it did not prevent him from having a deep understanding of him.

Therefore, with gratitude on his face, he sincerely thanked the other party:

"Thank you so much, you've really gone to so much trouble!"

"..."

However, Getia did not respond to Roman's thanks; she merely glanced at him indifferently and walked straight past him.

Watching Goetia's retreating figure, Leonardo da Vinci nudged Roman lightly with his elbow and teased him:

"Oh dear, it seems someone is disliked~."

"Well……"

Roman could only scratch his head with a forced smile, feeling somewhat helpless.

Romani Archiman. This is the name he chose for himself as a human being.

His true identity is that of the real Solomon, summoned by Marisbury Animusfiah, the former director of Chaldea, during the Holy Grail War.

As a king who was destined to be perfect and omnipotent from birth, he had never experienced the life of a 'human', nor had he ever experienced true 'freedom'.

Therefore, after winning the Holy Grail War, he made a wish to the Holy Grail, hoping to become an ordinary person without any power, and to live once as an unremarkable human being.

However, the moment his wish came true, his "clairvoyance" suddenly took effect, allowing him to "see" the future where human history was ending, and also causing him to lose his freedom once again.

After that, he tried every means to do something, constantly learning and exploring, and eventually came to Chaldea, became a doctor there, and finally made his way here.

Now he finally understands that the 'future' he saw back then was Goetia's 'Humanity Burning Plan'.

However, if it weren't for this incident, he really wouldn't have imagined that Getia hated him so much.

Thinking about it, it really is a bit of a failure.

"Fujimaru, Mash!"

Seeing the two figures, Fujimaru Ritsuka also came over and greeted them with a smile:

"How do you feel now?"

"Yes, it feels absolutely wonderful!"

Mashu, the junior, nodded again, then expressed her heartfelt gratitude:

"Thank you, Gudako-san!"

Although she was grateful to Mr. Geitia for curing her, she knew even more clearly that without Fujimaru Ritsuka, the current situation would not have been possible.

Chapter 516 Future Plans

Tiamat, standing beside Fujimaru Ritsuka, muttered somewhat resentfully upon hearing Mash's words:

"Body modification is something Mom is clearly better at!"

"They actually entrusted it to that wicked beast..."

As the creator goddess who created all life, Tiamat should theoretically be more adept at modifying and healing Mash's body to make her a normal person, and that was indeed the original plan.

Fujimaru Ritsuka chuckled:

"Who told you to keep saying things like you wanted to turn Mashu into a dragon..."

Upon hearing this, Tiamat said, feeling wronged:

"Isn't it good? Wouldn't it be healthier to transform into Jackie Chan?"

"That's what I said..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka was both amused and exasperated, while her junior Mash was somewhat embarrassed and cautiously began to speak:

"Well, I appreciate your kind offer, but I think it's good enough to be a normal, ordinary person."

"Well……"

Tiamat puffed out her cheeks, clearly still somewhat resentful.

At this moment, Gudao, who was standing to the side, seemed to have thought of something, and his expression looked somewhat intriguing.

He couldn't help but ask Fujimaru Ritsuka:

"Gudako-san, what are your plans for the future?"

"——!" ×n

The moment he finished speaking, everyone's eyes, whether intentionally or unintentionally, turned to him. Gudao paused for a moment before realizing that he might have said something wrong.

They were unaware of Fujimaru Ritsuka's past, but they had a general understanding of her current predicament through Geitia's previous explanation.

While feeling sympathy and indignation for Fujimaru Ritsuka's plight, he had also been pondering this issue while accompanying his junior Mashu during her treatment, thinking about whether there was any way to resolve Fujimaru Ritsuka's current predicament.

According to Goetia, the power of the other Chaldea, where Fujimaru Ritsuka resides, is so great that it can easily destroy the world, and if Fujimaru Ritsuka were willing, it could indeed do so easily.

But if that were really the case, he thought, the two so-called deterrent forces would never dare to do such a thing.

But it's precisely because Fujimaru Ritsuka wouldn't do that, and the other party knows this, that's why they're targeting Fujimaru Ritsuka like this, right?

After all, even now that Fujimaru Ritsuka has become a beast, she still did not agree to the proposal of joining forces with the Goetia of their world, but once again used her own power to protect humanity.

Yet, it is precisely this Fujimaru Ritsuka who is to be banished from her own world…

Thinking about this, Gudao was completely at a loss and felt increasingly helpless.

According to Fujimaru Ritsuka herself, she also heard Goetia's speech and therefore fully understood the current situation.

So, when he saw Fujimaru Ritsuka, he instinctively asked her about her plans.

The others obviously knew this was the most important issue at the moment, but because of Fujimaru Ritsuka's situation, no one wanted to ask, which ultimately made Gudao the first person to bring up the issue.

"This matter..."

As expected, the moment Fujimaru Ritsuka heard the question, her smile faded, and she seemed to fall into thought.

Even though the other party didn't show any vulnerability, Gudao still felt extremely guilty.

But the next moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke:

"--I don't know either."

"Eh?"

Seeing the surprised expressions on everyone's faces, she spread her hands and said:

"Because we still don't understand why Gaia and Alaya-vijnana did this. What Gaia said is just his guess."

"Regardless of the final outcome, shouldn't we at least figure out the reasons first?"

"……indeed!"

Mashu was the first to react, and quickly nodded in agreement:

“What you said is right. I also think it’s best not to jump to conclusions before we’ve thoroughly investigated the truth of the matter.”

Upon hearing this, Goetia crossed his arms and said calmly:

"This tactic is nothing more than stalling for time..."

——! ×m

Before Getia could finish speaking, all the other beasts glared at him fiercely, signaling him to shut up.

"……snort."

Seeing this, Goetia could only snort coldly and say:

"Then let's wait and see."

Then, Draco revealed a bloodthirsty smile, which was quite amusing:

"I'll leave it to you for now. Even if you decide to destroy humanity in the end, it will be nothing more than a piece of cake for me."

"Destroy humanity?"

U-Olgamarie looked somewhat conflicted and cautiously discussed the matter:

"Or, let's think of a way to just beat those two guys up."

"..."

Destroy humanity? Beat the inhibitory force?

The Chaldea group standing to the side had rather interesting expressions, as if the topic of discussion made them seem somewhat out of place.

"Let's talk about it later."

Fujimaru Ritsuka simply smiled at the various suggestions made by the beasts, remaining noncommittal for the time being.

Then, she smiled and said:

"In short, there is something more important to do right now than the problems that will follow."

"Something more important...?"

Everyone was puzzled upon hearing this, and then they saw Fujimaru Ritsuka take out a pair of ordinary white gloves from the "Treasure of the Subject".

"Huh, what's this...?!"
