The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

“I don’t remember the exact number anymore.”

"but……"

"It's definitely at least more than ten times."

"..."

Ophelia looked at Souji Okita in front of her and realized something deeper.

"So you're saying you've survived at least ten attacks like this?"

"Yes, yes."

"..."

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Obviously, this extraordinary combat power forms a sharp contrast with Okita Souji's weak appearance.

"Did I say something wrong again?"

Okita Souji asked with a worried look on his face.

"If that's the case, I apologize to you. I'm sorry!"

"..."

Seeing that Souji Okita was still in that soft state, Ian felt a little relieved.

This shows that at least that inexplicable shock did not change her too much.

Souji Okita is still the same Souji Okita.

"It's not your problem."

"It's just that they haven't seen how powerful you are yet."

"But, Okita, is this all you've encountered?"

"Eh……"

Ian's words made Okita Souji feel a little relieved.

She nodded, and then began to recall seriously.

Soon, Souji Okita had the answer.

"If I really want to tell you what happened—"

The girl drew out her Kaga Kiyomitsu and pointed it towards the distance of the underworld.

Although there was no direct sunlight here, for some magical reason, Ian felt that the range he could see was much farther than when he was on the ground.

"There seems to be some movement over there."

"Could it be your sister..."

After listening to Okita Souji's words, Ophelia looked at Ishtar.

Since this is the underworld, any movement can obviously be easily linked to her sister Ereshkigal.

However, Ishtar did not agree with this statement at all.

She pointed to the other side, which was completely different from Okita Souji, and spoke very seriously.

"But if you want to find your sister, you should go this way."

"I remember it very clearly. This is the place where there is absolutely no possibility of error!"

Although he was skeptical about Ishtar's memory, Ian knew that the possibility she mentioned was definitely not something that could be easily ignored.

"If that's the case—"

Ian scanned the two different directions pointed by Okita Souji and Ishtar from left to right, and an answer came to his mind.

"Let's split up from here."

970. Projection: Okita Souji and the Underground Heian-kyo / Super-sized Monster (4k)

"..."

"..."

As soon as the topic of splitting up came up, the atmosphere instantly became serious.

The girls looked at each other, each seeming to have their own thoughts.

"Do you have to do this?"

Medusa asked tentatively.

"Can't we act together?"

"Of course you can."

"only--"

Ian looked at the underworld, which was no different from Heian-kyo, with a more serious expression than anyone else.

"I think if we act together, we're bound to waste a lot of time."

"So, the best way."

"One group will follow Ishtar to find Ereshkigal, and another group will go in the direction Okita pointed."

"no!"

Ishtar started to stir.

"Why do I have to separate from you?"

"This, this is not right!"

"There's nothing wrong with that."

Ian looked at Ishtar in front of him, as if he had already expected that she would protest against his actions.

"Ishtar, only you can do this, and only you can take them to see Ereshkigal."

"You don't want to say that when they see Ereshkigal, they'll just be vaporized, right?"

"Eh……"

Ishtar was stunned for a moment.

It was obvious that before this, she had never considered whether Ereshkigal would receive these people.

"This……"

Suddenly realizing her responsibility, Ishtar nodded, even though she still didn't want to part with Ian.

"I understand."

"I will do that."

"But how do we distribute it?"

Ishtar's eyes swept over everyone present.

"It always feels like it's not that easy to say."

"..."

Now the person in trouble really became Ian.

Ishtar was right.

Everyone present now looked unwilling to leave with Ishtar.

No matter who you choose, it will make others unhappy.

Just when Ian was wondering what to do, Chaldea sent a message at this time.

"Pig, do you have time to talk to BB alone?"

"..."

Although he knew that doing so might not be a good idea, Ian still wanted to take this opportunity to calm down.

"Everyone, wait a moment."

After a while.

"call--"

Ian breathed a sigh of relief.

"BB, you came at the perfect time."

"..."

"Has he offended a bunch of women again?" BB replied, crossing his arms. "Really? Not every girl is as gentle and considerate as BB."

"more or less."

"Let's not talk about this for now—BB, you're looking for me..."

"Didn't I say I would help you investigate the curse?"

Feeling the man's anxiety, BB also "switched" to the appearance of a serious assistant.

"Now the observations have produced a preliminary result."

"Preliminary results?"

"Yes." BB nodded.

"There is indeed some kind of suppressed energy beneath Uruk—and its magnitude is beyond what Chaldea can observe."

"Perhaps there is something more important than the Holy Grail lurking beneath Uruk."

"..."

"What's that expression on your face, pig?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Ian decided to tell BB about his current situation.

"BB, we are now underground in Uruk."

"what!"

The super AI assistant yelled.

"Then evacuate immediately! Do you want to die here?! Didn't you promise BB that you would never risk your life again?!"

"This time it's different."

Ian calmed the agitated little devil.

"Ishtar is on our side—I think it wouldn't be so bad with her around."

"Ishtar..."

BB frowned.

"Is it the Venus goddess in Babylonian mythology?"

"Correct."

"How did you get her help?" BB continued, "I remember that based on her personality, she should be a very cruel goddess."

"Wait a moment--"

The Super AI Girl seemed to realize something.

"Pig, you're not going to sell your body again, are you?"

"..."

"Silence is no use!" BB seemed to jump out of the screen, "You guys, you can marry anyone, right?"

"We'll deal with that later."

Ian interrupted BB's combo in time.
