With Artemis's gentle touch, the entire house turned into dust and collapsed onto the ground, stirring up a large amount of smoke and dust.
"Ugh, cough cough—"
"This looks like an ancient ruin. It seems to be quite old." Orion looked around with curiosity. He was a teddy bear and didn't have a respiratory tract, so he didn't suffer from the smoke and dust getting into his nose.
Artemis remained silent.
She was very familiar with this architectural style.
Age... that's quite a long time indeed.
Ignoring the collapsed house, Artemis walked toward the energy source she sensed.
The direction seems to be... the very center of the entire ruins.
"Oh! That shed is huge!" Orion exclaimed in surprise. "And there seems to be light inside? Could it be treasure?"
“Darling, could you please be a little quieter?” Artemis flicked Orion’s forehead.
"Ouch, that hurts!"
Upon reaching the outside of the shed, one finds that only the main structure remains, making the interior easily visible from the outside.
"Huh? What's that?" Orion tilted his head as he looked at the huge blue crystal standing in the center of the shed.
Stepping over the uneven wood chips, Artemis stood next to the blue crystal and looked at it.
Inside the crystal... is a person.
"Oh my! So pretty! What a beautiful young lady!!!" He jumped off Artemis's shoulder and leaped toward the blue crystal.
“My dear—” Artemis watched angrily and shocked as Orion lunged at the blue crystal, and then—
Pfft—
A slender, fair arm grasped the teddy bear.
Orion and Artemis were both stunned and stood there dumbfounded.
"...Huh?"
......
"What kind of sea area is this... I don't know." Drake shook his head, speaking very casually.
"Huh?" Mashu was stunned.
"...You mean, you're holding this party here without any regard for the current situation?" Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes twitched slightly.
“Hmm, what else?” Drake nodded matter-of-factly. “With endless wine and food, isn’t it only natural to hold a party?”
"I'm really fed up with you..." Lawrence sighed, then suddenly caught sight of something out of the corner of her eye.
"Huh?" Lawrence paused for a moment, then rubbed his eyes.
She walked towards a table of drinks, while Drake remained chatting with Fujimaru Ritsuka: "In short, since I lost, I can give you anything except my life. So, what do you want to do now? Go to sea?"
Ritsuka nodded: "Going out to sea is a must. Staying on this island won't allow us to find the cause of the singularity, so we must go out to find the elements that constitute the singularity and then eliminate them, otherwise..."
"What will happen?" Drake asked, grabbing a wine glass from somewhere and laughing as he spoke.
"The world... will never be able to return to its original state and will forever remain in this deformed state."
“…” Drake was stunned.
"Hey, are you serious?"
“It’s true.” Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded solemnly. “That’s why we’re asking for your help to repair this deformed foundation!”

Chapter 636 Doris, the Goddess Doris
“Um…” At this moment, Lawrence walked over with a golden cup in his hand.
"What's wrong, Miss Lawrence?" Mashu turned to look at Lawrence, then noticed what she was holding. "Huh?"
"Oh, isn't this my wine glass? Thank you so much for bringing it to me, beautiful lady!" Drake naturally accepted the gold glass that Lawrence brought him.
Lawrence frowned: "Who are you calling a beautiful woman? Huh!?"
"What do you mean, 'huh'? Do you think your face isn't good-looking?!" Drake retorted without holding back.
"She's pretty... but you absolutely can't call me a beauty, understand, pirate!?" Lawrence spoke very loudly, with his hands on his hips.
"Huh!? Does being good-looking mean I can't even be complimented?!" Drake frowned, looking at the woman who resembled a noblewoman, sizing her up. "What are you glaring at me for? Do you believe I'll gouge your eyes out?!"
"You—"
"Alright, alright, stop arguing!" Fujimaru Ritsuka pushed the two apart. "Ms. Lawrence, please calm down. Leave this to me, okay?"
Lawrence, seeing Ritsuka frantically giving him meaningful glances, realized that he might have gotten a little too excited.
He bowed slightly to Drake and said, "I apologize. I was a bit impulsive just now, but I still don't want you to call me a great beauty. It's a compliment to my appearance, but it sounds incredibly strange to me personally."
Drake also fell silent for a moment: "So why is that?"
Lawrence glanced at Fujimaru Ritsuka, who nodded slightly, and sighed softly, "Let's explain this later. Right now, the most important thing is..."
She pointed to the cup in Drake's hand: "It's this one."
"Hmm? This?" Drake picked up the cup and examined it curiously.
"Ah! That's—" Fujimaru Ritsuka's mouth dropped open.
"Yes, the Holy Grail!?" Mash frantically searched for her communication device. "Doctor! Doctor! Are you there, Doctor!"
"Huh? Is that Mashu? What happened all of a sudden? Why did the communication suddenly stop?" Roman was startled and could barely speak.
"Roman, what are you doing right now?" Lawrence also came over and looked at Roman's small screen.
"I...I...I'm fixing the equipment. It seems to be malfunctioning. It's showing that the Holy Grail is always in front of you, and I feel something's wrong, so..." Roman said, looking troubled, before being interrupted by Ritsuka.
"Doctor, no need to look anymore, the Holy Grail... is indeed right in front of us." Ritsuka's eyes lit up with surprise as she looked at the Holy Grail that Drake was holding.
"......well?"
......
Meanwhile, on that unknown, nameless island...
The woman with long, flowing blue hair, her eyes slightly cold, grabbed the teddy bear that was lunging at her and looked at Artemis.
"Who...are you?"
Artemis swallowed hard, watching the woman warily.
This woman was very tall; at first glance, you could tell she was at least 175 cm tall. She had a beautiful face and looked to be just over twenty years old. She had long, light blue hair that truly resembled a waterfall, reaching all the way to the ground.
Most importantly...
This woman is undoubtedly a deity.
“No, we meant no harm,” Artemis said cheerfully.
"Then what's going on with this little thing?" The woman's voice was very pleasant. She looked at the teddy bear that was struggling frantically in her palm and frowned slightly.
She could sense that something was wrong with the teddy bear.
“He is my lover…yes, lover.” Artemis spoke softly, pulling Orion back from the blue-haired woman’s grasp and chuckling twice.
“Hmm.” The blue-haired woman decided to ignore the minor details. “But who are you, and what brings you to my island? My island has never had any visitors before.”
“We don’t know either. We were just summoned to this island and don’t know much about the current situation…” Artemis desperately covered Orion’s mouth.
"Summon?" The blue-haired woman tilted her head.
"But if it's alright, could I ask your name first?" Artemis vaguely sensed the divine power emanating from this woman... and it seemed somewhat familiar.
No, it's not that I'm familiar with it, but rather...
On the sea where the supreme god fell—
Her pupils suddenly contracted.
"name?"
"My name is Doris, what's wrong?"
The blue-haired woman, Doris, looked at Artemis with indifference and calm.
......
"What do you mean by saying the Holy Grail is right in front of you?" Roman felt that he might be hallucinating because he hadn't slept well the night before.
Lawrence sighed. This Roman...
“This Holy Grail is what we’ve been searching for,” she said, turning to look at Drake.
"Huh? Is this it? So you can repair the ocean by taking this thing?" Drake asked, somewhat surprised.
"Theoretically... that should be the case." Lawrence vaguely felt that things were not so simple.
"Captain Drake, could you give this to us?" Fujimaru Ritsuka asked eagerly.
“Oh, sure.” Drake tossed the Holy Grail to Fujimaru Ritsuka. “Anyway, I did say something like I’d give you anything except my life, but all you did across eras was for this ridiculously tacky golden cup.”
“Thank you, Captain Drake. So, in that case—” Fujimaru Ritsuka excitedly tried to put the Holy Grail into the containment device, but Lawrence grabbed her arm.
Hijikata Toshizo stood to the side with his arms crossed, his eyes darting back and forth between Lawrence and Drake.
"Huh? What's wrong, Miss Lawrence?" Mash asked curiously.
"Theoretically speaking, as long as our Master or Mash comes into contact with the Holy Grail, the era that was corrupted will be restored, but... look around you."
“Indeed, the era… has not been repaired.” Roman frowned as he typed rapidly on the keyboard.
"Master, let me see the Holy Grail."
"Hmm." Ritsuka handed the Holy Grail to Lawrence.
Lawrence, holding the Holy Grail, looked at Drake and asked, "Captain Drake, may I ask about the origin of this chalice?"
"As for its origins..."
"Their origins are truly extraordinary." The one-eyed first mate, Bombey, appeared out of nowhere and interrupted Drake, looking excitedly at Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others. "Our captain was directing everyone to fight the storm amidst the giant waves of the eternal night."
