In front of the church altar, a girl in a black windbreaker stood with her back to the door, playing with a pointer in her hand, and slowly turned around.
"dad."
Chapter 32 BB
In the dim chapel, the girl standing in front of the altar addressed Shiomi like this.
"Sakura?" Scathach asked puzzledly.
"It sure looks like Sakura no matter how you look at it." Altria nodded.
Morgan sneered and took the lead to step forward: "After all, she is a heroic spirit whose name will be recorded in history. Could it be that her power has been weakened by the manifestation, and your minds have become chaotic? How could she be Ying?"
By the time he finished speaking, Morgan had already arrived in front of the girl who looked very similar to Sakura, and was looking down at her.
"You are worthy of being a mother! You noticed it right away!" The girl smiled brightly and praised Morgan with respect.
"...Well, actually they look very similar." She turned her head away embarrassedly, telling Shiomi that her judgment was wrong.
After all, that child was raised by Morgan, and received her personal instruction in magic. He was trained by the great witch to become a leading magician of this era.
The girl in front of him looked so well-behaved and clever when she smiled, just like Sakura.
"Enough with the jokes, BB." Shiomi also walked over, "I carried out this soul transfer alone, just as you requested."
"He's got three servants with him," BB complained, "but since he's my father, I'll just ignore this foul."
Scathach asked once everyone had taken their seats on the church pews.
"So would you like to introduce her to me? Who is she?"
"Compared to that kind of thing, why should we sit like this?" Xijian muttered.
Morgan and Altria sat next to him on his left and right, each hugging one of his arms. Scathach stood behind the bench, wrapped her arms around Shiomi's neck from behind, and rested her chin on his forehead.
"Of course it's to keep you safe," Morgan said matter-of-factly, "Even though it's almost identical to Sakura, BB... your strengths are completely different from Sakura's."
BB puffed up his cheeks with an aggrieved expression: "I obviously didn't intend to do anything bad, but mother said this to me, wuwuwu..."
"Okay, okay, don't cry." Xijian comforted.
Then BB immediately put on a smiling face again and laughed "Hey~", making Xijian feel that his soft-heartedness was in vain.
"Can you please explain?" he asked.
"Well, first let me explain SE.RA.PH's current situation—"
"No, I mean, to explain my situation to the extent possible." Shiomi said, "The one who originally sent me to Master's Shadow Kingdom to survive, and was discovered by Master, and became Master's disciple, was you... No, it was Mooncell, right?"
For the first time, without any obstruction, Shiomi asked a question.
"So Dad is more concerned about this issue than the current situation." BB seemed a little surprised, with his hands on his hips and his head tilted to look at him, "But for now, it is indeed possible to disclose part of it."
She tapped her palms lightly with her pointer and began to pace slowly along the aisle of the chapel and along the walls.
"Mooncell needs Dad to be strong enough, so we need to choose a suitable teacher for you. In human history, there are candidates for teaching heroic legends. Queen Scathach is the one who has the best compatibility with Dad, so we will send you to the Kingdom of Shadows."
"The physical compatibility is also the best." Scathach was very satisfied with this and whispered teasingly in Shiomi's ear.
"……Well……"
Xijian seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.
As if these words had aroused his fighting spirit, Morgan began to put his hand into his clothes and touch the more sensitive parts of Shiomi's back, forcing him to try his best to keep steady.
"So why do I need to be powerful enough?" Shiomi asked loudly, trying to divert his attention in this way.
"Don't you already know?" BB pretended to be confused. "We've come this far, why are you still asking such unnecessary questions?"
Altria, who had not noticed anything unusual and was concentrating on listening to BB's words, slowly responded:
"Save the world..."
"That's right, Knight King." BB smiled, "Dad is the chosen 'savior'."
"There are so many people in this world, why did you choose me?" Xi Jian asked calmly, trying to get rid of Morgan's clutches at the moment, "Besides, I don't even believe in God, how can I be considered a savior?"
"Well, this is a confidential matter." BB said he couldn't tell me. "Mooncell has set many precise restrictions. This is all I can say now."
When BB walked to the aisle near the wall on Morgan's side, Morgan withdrew his hand: "Then who are you? Why do you look so much like Sakura?"
"Me? I'm Mooncell, who designed an advanced AI specifically for Dad's guidance, based on a certain incident that had become an imaginary event, using Sakura as the prototype."
"AI? So you are not human?" Scathach was stunned.
BB doesn't have a mechanical vibe, it's more like being human.
"That's right. Unlike humans who are organic life forms, I am an information life form." BB proudly put his hand on his chest, showing off his true nature. "Whether it's my heart, personality, or even my way of thinking, they are all completely based on Sakura who is now in Chaldea, and my appearance is fixed at the age of seventeen! I am an eternal beautiful girl AI!"
"She's obviously worse than Sakura." Shiomi muttered.
"Ah?" BB was really surprised this time.
Morgan rarely put on a sympathetic expression: "You really don't know, or the halo effect of being a father is too strong... That child is no less evil than Karin."
"That's good, isn't it? Although she looks weak, she is actually able to stand on her own two feet. This way the Master can rest assured." Scathach commented with a smile.
"Ahahahahaha..." Xijian felt guilty for being a disqualified father and couldn't stop laughing.
"So what exactly is Mooncell? When we arrived at this place after completing the soul transfer, we heard a broadcast saying that the prize given to the winner of the Holy Grail War in which 128 Servants and Masters competed is Mooncell. Isn't Mooncell the Holy Grail?"
BB's expression gradually became serious: "Strictly speaking, this space called SE.RA.PH is not the real SE.RA.PH, and the Holy Grail War that pitted 128 Servants against their Masters was just a poor imitation of the real Moon Holy Grail War."
Obviously, in order to get BB to answer what Mooncell is, they need to have a complete understanding of the situation in this singularity.
"Then please start from the beginning and give an explanation."
Shiomi also looked at BB sincerely and asked her this.
Chapter 33: Grasping the Current Situation
Seeing Shiomi's expression when she said this, BB also perked up. She tapped her palm with the pointer thoughtfully.
"Well, let's start with the conclusion. This place... SE.RA.PH will sink to the Mariana Trench 2.5 meters below in hours."
Be straightforward and get to the point.
But it also brought considerable pressure to Shiomi. He almost wanted to jump up from his chair in an instant and continue to go out to investigate and find a way to repair this singularity.
Fortunately, Morgan and the others were positioned just enough to restrict Shiomi's movements, so that his butt was pushed back as soon as he left the bench.
"Calm down." Scathach ruffled his hair.
Everyone can actually understand why Shiomi lacks calmness.
If she had come here alone, Xi Jian would not be so anxious and would be able to calm down and continue to listen to BB's explanation.
But he still has companions. Xijian is not afraid of death, but he doesn't want anyone to be buried with him.
It sounded somewhat romantic, but he didn't want it at all.
"There are only about 2.5 hours left, but there is no rush. This means that the remaining time is the sinking speed of this singularity observed from Chaldea outside, right?" Morgan asked.
BB nodded vigorously. "Mother is right. The speed of time in the real world is 100 times faster than that in SE.RA.PH. Specifically, one minute in the outside world is equivalent to 1 minutes here."
"Then... it might be a good thing that Chaldea has cut off communications with this side." Altria gradually understood the situation.
The different speeds at which time passes on both sides will cause Chaldea to obtain 100 times more singularity intelligence in one minute.
This information explosion beyond the scope of the plan will bring tremendous pressure to Chaldea and may very likely cause the entire Chaldea system to crash.
"A little more than 10 days?"
Xi understood.
It's not a lot, but it's better than having only 2.5 hours left.
"So what happened to the Seraphix oil field? The oil production base in the North Sea was moved to the Pacific Ocean and began to sink?" He touched Scathach's arm, and she hugged him tighter tacitly. "Is it because of Beast?"
"Beast?" Scathach was stunned.
Although she has assisted Chaldea in resolving the disasters of Beast II and Beast I so far, it does not mean that she can remain calm in the face of the remaining Beasts that have not yet appeared.
——Except for Beast IV. After all, he has already appeared, but he always stands on the side of Chaldea, or the group participating in the restoration of humanity.
"No wonder when I returned to the room, I felt that the doctor was not the only one who had looked for the Master." Morgan looked at BB, "Since they are all here, why don't you show up?"
BB raised her finger: "Because it is forbidden, as the exclusive AI that guides Dad, BB cannot appear in front of everyone casually and show her existence--"
"Obviously, at the Twin Tower, I used the original Rune's base as bait to trick Orange into fighting me." Xi Jian narrowed his eyes and complained, "I hold a grudge very well."
"Hey~"
BB stuck out his tongue and pretended not to remember it.
Then he calmly brought the topic back and continued:
"It is true that Seraphix has become what it is now, and this series of abnormalities is due to Beast. But unfortunately, when Mooncell observed this and sent me here, this place has already become a new electronic city - SE.RA.PH, where even Mooncell cannot grasp the internal situation."
"You just said that the SE.RA.PH here is just a fake, so what is the real one?" Shiomi asked.
"The real SE.RA.PH is a fictional world of spirit particles established in Mooncell. It is the 'urban engine that turns the moon' that Mooncell established to operate itself." BB thought for a moment, and finally told Shiomi concisely, "Now you only need to know this much. According to Mooncell's plan, it is not yet time for Dad to visit, so the rest of the content will be left for later."
Shiomi felt increasingly uneasy.
It's not danger, but anxiety filled with unknown and confusion.
It seems that the fate of the route has been set from the beginning, but each choice is determined by one's own choice.
He originally thought he had all the choices, but in fact he just happened to choose the one that he could choose.
BB stopped issuing instructions after the Fourth Holy Grail War, perhaps for this very reason.
"Really? Let's talk about it later." He simply accepted BB's statement.
Xijian believes that his greatest strength is that he will never waste his present time or delay important matters on things that can only be dealt with in the future.
That's exactly what happened now.
"But Mooncell can even interfere with the Shadow Kingdom outside the world and send the Master to me." Scathach did not comment on this, "but it cannot observe the singularity located about 200 meters below the sea surface?"
"Because the Beast in charge here has intentionally isolated itself from Mooncell's observation, intending to prevent its own metamorphosis process from being interfered with before it completely transforms into a complete form." BB pointed at Shiomi, "The factors that led to the failure of Beast II and Beast I are something that the Beast here needs to be very vigilant about."
"Then just like before, defeat Beast." Shiomi said calmly, "Isn't this exactly what Mooncell needs?"
"I can't help but feel proud of Dad's determination." BB showed a cute smile, "But don't forget why you were able to defeat those two Beasts."
Tiamat simply gave up her original idea, accepted everything that Shiomi conveyed from the perspective of a "child", and chose to watch the future of the planet as a "mother".
Goetia's defeat was due to the fact that Shiomi happened to obtain the Ten Commandments that had a crucial destructive effect on it.
The latter was originally a magic formula created by the Magic King Solomon. As long as Solomon exists, Goetia will not perish.
That failure actually meant that the plan to burn human nature that had been planned for 3000 years had completely failed.
Goetia simply fell from Beast I's seat and returned to a mage-like stance.
The failure of the human burning has become a fixed matter, the seat of omnipotence has collapsed, and the conditions for starting over are no longer in place.
"You mean, we lack the conditions to defeat this unknown beast, so we must hurry up and take action before the other party is fully formed."
"That's what I mean!" BB liked it playfully, but also very seriously.
She swung her teaching stick across the void.
Then the holographic stereoscopic image of SE.RA.PH appeared in front of everyone.
"A woman's...body?"
Shiomi stared at the map in surprise.
Chapter 34: Beast Subjugation Mission
Unlike the map that Shiomi thought, SE.RA.PH did not show a square or irregular shape, but the outline of a woman's curvy body.
The face could not be seen clearly as the hands covered the facial features perfectly, so it was impossible to guess the general appearance.
The church they are in now is located on the right thigh of the woman's body.
“So until now, we were actually fighting and moving on a giant, strange female body, oh oh oh——!”
Because the situation was too outrageous, Shiomi couldn't help but relax and subconsciously complained about it.
