The next moment, she obtained the source of magic that she loved so much, and also won the championship of the competition.

Tamamonomae also smiled as she watched this scene.

"Finally...it succeeded."

About two hours later.

Ian formed a team to rescue Ritsuka Fujimaru - including himself, Mashu and Nero.

The spirit particle transfer system device slowly closed.

The rescue team began to teleport towards the singularity where she was.

Ian felt his consciousness gradually becoming blurred.

When I recovered, I could already feel the gentle sea breeze on my face.

But compared to this, he felt as if something was rubbing against him.

It was a loving touch, but also a bit of a heartbeat.

"..."

The man slowly opened his eyes, and was stunned for a moment when he saw what was rubbing against his cheek.

She was a girl with a pair of cat ears and looked quite well-behaved.

"Atalanta—"

"How could it be you?"

490. Atalanta's Food/Singularity of Meeting Again/Holy Grail (4k)

At this moment, the person who appeared in Ian's sight was none other than Atalanta.

She has beautiful long green hair and is looking at Ian with clever eyes. Her two cat ears move, making her look like a really cute little kitten.

"Master, the tone of your voice... does it mean you hate to see me?" Atalanta showed a sad expression.

"I thought that reuniting with the master was something that was worth making both of us happy."

"..."

Seeing Atalanta's eyes becoming lonely, Ian realized that his reaction at this moment seemed to hurt her heart, and he immediately spoke up to make amends:

"Atalanta, that's not what I meant."

"I... just didn't expect to meet you at a time like this."

"Where is this place?"

"This is the Oceanus Sea, my master." Knowing that Ian did not hate her, Atalanta softened her tone. "But I don't know exactly where in the Oceanus Sea we are."

"..."

Ian got up from Atalanta's lap and began to observe the surrounding environment.

sea.

There's nothing but the sea.

At this moment, the man was sitting on the same boat with the cute little cat girl.

Apart from the two of them, there were no other companions.

"This..." Realizing that the situation was not good, Ian quickly asked the second question.

"Atalanta, have you seen Mash and Nero?"

"I have some impression of the name Mashu...but who is Nero?"

Looking at Atalanta's slightly embarrassed expression, Ian quickly understood the situation at the moment.

I... got separated from Mashu and Nero?

But we clearly came here together!

Noticing that something was not right with Ian's mood, Atalanta began to worry.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

"Are those two people important to you?"

"Wait a minute, Atalanta." Ian stopped the cat girl from talking, "Let me take a break first."

"……it is good."

Although she didn't know what was going on, Atalanta waited very obediently.

Her trust in him was established as early as the singularity of the Hundred Years' War between England and France.

Back to Ian, realizing that he might have been separated from Mashu and Nero, Ian's first reaction was naturally to contact Chaldea.

Fortunately, although the three people were not together, the communication system matched to each other did not fail.

After some simple operations, the man successfully contacted his "exclusive customer service" BB.

"Pig, what's wrong?"

"Will there be any problems as soon as we land?"

"BB, you're right." Ian looked at the endless ocean in front of him and exhaled a breath of cold air, "Mashu, Nero and I got separated."

"what?!"

BB on the other end of the line reacted even more violently than Ian.

After all, for her, if this situation really happened, it would mean that there were serious calculation problems in the spirit particle transfer system!

"Wait a moment, piglet. Let BB confirm for you!"

"it is good."

BB is indeed a very reliable AI. After telling Ian this, she immediately launched further investigation.

Soon, the reply came again.

BB's tone has become much more relaxed.

"Pig, the problem is not that big. BB has contacted the shield girl and the emperor girl."

"It's not far. Just find a way to get there."

"BB will send you the location now. Just walk slowly in this direction. They will be waiting for you there."

"okay."

After a brief conversation, the communication device in Ian's hand received the information from BB.

Looking at the extremely detailed guidance, the man finally felt relieved.

"Thank you, BB. I'll contact you later."

"Well, feel free to contact BB if you have any questions."

The contact ended cleanly and neatly, and Ian's gaze returned to Atalanta once again.

He still has a good impression of this little cat girl.

"Atalanta, let's go in this direction. Do you... think it's okay?"

"Eh……"

Although she didn't know how Ian confirmed this direction, Atalanta nodded obediently.

"Okay, let's move in this direction."

Ever since——

The makeshift team of two began to move forward on the sea of ​​Oceanus.

Once the mind becomes relaxed, it is easier for people to notice things that they have not noticed before.

Ian soon realized that there seemed to be something wrong with the ship he was on.

To be more specific, it's probably...

Too old?

That's right.

It's just too old and doesn't look like the tools you would prepare when traveling on the ocean.

Why did Atalanta get such a ship?

"..."

Perhaps because she had been secretly paying attention to Ian, Atalanta soon noticed that there was something wrong with his expression.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

"If you have any questions...please speak up!"

"..."

Ian looked at Atalanta, whose face was full of sincerity, and after thinking it over again and again, he decided to tell her everything directly.

"Atalanta, what's the matter with your ship?"

"besides--"

"Why are you here?"

"Hey, this..."

Perhaps knowing that such things would have to be explained sooner or later, Atalanta did not evade the question and answered it directly.

"Master, this is what happened."

A few minutes later.

After learning about the current situation from the little cat girl, Ian's expression became a little subtle.

"You mean-"

"Were you summoned again this time?"

"Yes." Atalanta nodded, "This time, I was a member of the crew of the ship called Argo."

"..."

Ian did not doubt Atalanta's words.

After all, apart from being a little dishonest during the initial period of time when they met, she basically said whatever she wanted to say when facing me afterwards.

"Then the captain of this ship called the Argo is the man you mentioned called Jason, right?"

"Yes." Atalanta nodded.

"It is indeed him."

"but--"

"I didn't like this guy, so I stole an older boat and escaped from there."

"That's it..."

Ian did not intend to blame Atalanta for this.

He knew that this was her personality. When she met people or things she didn't like, she would find ways to get out of them.

Considering this point, Atalanta became an Archer, perhaps not necessarily because of her superb archery skills, but because of her free nature?

"I see."

The man rubbed Atalanta's head. It felt soft, like real animal fur.

"If you don't like it, then there's no need to stay. That will only make things difficult for yourself."

"Hmm..." Atalanta nodded, and then naturally leaned on Ian's shoulder, her expression showing great attachment.

"The master is right."

"But then again—"

The little cat girl raised her head and looked at the man next to her who was a perfect match for her in every sense.
