Ex-Machina in Dimensional Travel

"It is speculated that a 'job disguise' is necessary to 'confuse' the selection process during the ritual."

Hearing this, Xiuer nodded.

"Understood. The relevant report has already been received and the project's 'coverage' has been established."

"system."

"Received, request approved, starting the 'overwrite' process"

“1%…21.6%…32.7%…”

Then, the next step is to wait for the arrival of the Master of Chaldea.

Thinking of this, Xiuer finally had some free time.

Just when he had some free time, a golden passage suddenly appeared a hundred meters away from where everyone was gathered...

……

----

……

"careful!"

"Guwa!"

puff-

A huge impact came upon Fujimaru Ritsuka's body.

The impact on the boy's upper body caused his lower body to become unstable. He was pushed back several meters and quickly fell to the ground below.

Because the "Create" block towards Fujimaru Ritsuka was moving too fast, Mashu didn't have any time to protect the boy, and didn't even have the chance to grab him to prevent him from falling.

The boy's back hit the ground violently, and pain instantly came to his back, making him grit his teeth and gasp.

"senior!"

"Fujimaru-kun!"

Mashu quickly ran to the boy and pulled him up.

"Ahem... Mashu, I seem to..."

"Senior, please don't move!"

Without waiting for Fujimaru Ritsuka to finish, Mashu anxiously pulled open the boy's clothes, wanting to check if he was injured.

That was an object moving at high speed. Even a stone could penetrate the human body. Fujimaru Ritsuka's body was made of the flesh and blood of an ordinary person. How could it be as durable as a Servant!

"Um, Mashu... cough cough! I'm fine..."

Ritsuka Fujimaru's crying was of no use. After all, this was a matter concerning his life, and Mashu dared not neglect it.

After all, no matter from which aspect, the existence of Fujimaru Ritsuka is extremely important.

Then, with Jeanne turning her head away with a blushing face, and under the stunned gazes of Shishi Jie and everyone outside the barrier, Mash pulled open Fujimaru Ritsuka's shirt and checked for any possible wounds.

"call……"

After wiping the cold sweat from her head and confirming that the boy was safe, Mashu breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Shishijie, who watched the whole process, pinched his chin and stared at Fujimaru Ritsuka with a serious expression.

"It's a good thing you weren't hurt, but being hit by something traveling at that speed, you don't even have a bruise...boy, you..."

"Believe me, I'm a normal human being with a normal body. Please don't speculate about my race without permission."

Lion's interruption eased the awkwardness between them and also drew back the attention of Joan of Arc who had turned her head away.

"But what about the cube?"

Joan of Arc asked a soul-searching question.

"I don't know. I didn't see it."

Mashu answered very honestly about the results of her examination. Not only was Fujimaru Ritsuka not injured, but even the cube was missing.

Everyone present saw the block hit Fujimaru Ritsuka, but no one saw where the block went.

Until the "victim", Fujimaru Ritsuka raised his right hand.

"Well, I do know where that thing went."

Fujimaru Ritsuka said with a trembling face.

“It’s built into my body.”

"..."

After the conversation ended, a brief silence fell between the few people.

Until a few seconds later.

"ha?!!"

……

Chapter 69: Meeting

"ah??!!"

Mashu's scream was so deafening that Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was standing next to her, almost fainted.

"Senior, are you serious? You're not lying to us, are you?!"

Mashu anxiously grabbed Fujimaru Ritsuka's shoulders and shook the boy's body, trying to bring his consciousness back from the brink of death.

"This joke is not funny."

Even Lion Jie expressed his feelings.

The thought of an enemy "thing" getting into my body was a bit scary.

After all, no one knows what harm the thing that gets into the body will cause, not to mention that it is something made by the enemy.

“Guwu…!”

Ritsuka Fujimaru was shaken so much that he couldn't speak. Even the body of a sub-servant was not ordinary. Because of her anxiety, Mashu subconsciously forgot that her body was stronger than the boy's.

"Mashu... please... please stop shaking..."

The young man begged Mashu with great difficulty. He was really about to faint.

Having just been hit by a high-speed moving object and being shaken back and forth by his companions, Fujimaru Ritsuka really wanted to faint.

Fortunately, this state lasted only a dozen seconds, and Mashu, who had regained her sanity, immediately realized that her behavior was indeed inappropriate.

In this state, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't speak properly at all. It was even said that if she continued to sway, the boy who was originally fine would be in trouble.

"Senior! Come back to your senses, look me in the eyes, and please tell me that what you just said was a joke."

Mashu stopped shaking the boy's body and leveled his body with hers, letting her purple eyes meet his gaze.

The girl's expression was very serious, but Fujimaru Ritsuka could see a hint of pleading in her eyes.

It seemed as if she really hoped that he was mistaken or joking.

Although Fujimaru Ritsuka really wanted to comfort his companions, what he said just now was indeed true. He would not and should not choose to hide such a thing.

Even in this situation, he still wants to hide it. I'm afraid his teammates don't trust him at all.

Will Ritsuka Fujimaru not trust Mashu?

how is this possible.

That person has been with him till now, and has been through countless things with him. He is a companion who can be trusted with one's back.

"Though I could certainly say that to appease you..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked directly into Mashu's eyes.

"But everything I said is true. I saw with my own eyes that the block sank into my body the moment it hit me."

Having said that, he lowered his head and raised his hand to wipe the center of his chest.

That's where he was hit by the block and where it penetrated.

There was no discomfort, and Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't know what the "block" that had penetrated his body was. But even if nothing happened, he would not take the enemy's things lightly.

"No discomfort?"

"Ah."

"Is there no change in your body?"

Lion Jie came to the boy, squatted down and used magic to check his body.

As he checked, he asked the other person how he felt.

"Well, I really didn't feel anything unusual..."

After stretching out his hands several times, Fujimaru Ritsuka's face was also full of confusion.

"And the body hasn't changed much either."

After he finished speaking, the young man suddenly turned around and looked at Joan of Arc beside him. After all, there was another person present who had entered here before them. It was also because of her that he and others discovered the block and knew why it appeared here.

In that case, asking her is also an option, just in case Miss Joan of Arc really knows about this.

"Miss Jeanne, do you know what this situation is?"

The boy was very straightforward, and there was no need to beat around the bush in this situation.

But he saw that Joan of Arc was also frowning, as if she didn't know what was going on.

"Um... I'm sorry, this is the first time I've seen you in this situation. Or rather, that little cube that Number One released was also a few hours ago."

"Besides, it was floating in the sky the entire time. Until just now, I thought it was just a magic prop for surveillance."

Jeanne said helplessly that she really wanted to help Ritsuka Fujimaru and others, but she herself didn't know much.

"This is troublesome..."

The inquiry yielded no results, and now the boy's face was filled with worry.

Just when they were at a loss, the golden vortex that had opened in advance began to move.

I saw.

A tall, thin figure with white hair, wearing a red plush cloak and golden armor, walked out and appeared in the eyes of several people.

An unexpected person came out, and it was not a puppet as they had imagined.

"Why is it him?"

Jeanne looked in astonishment at Karna who had walked out of the "door".

"Eh? Why is it him?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression was so obvious that Jeanne could tell at once that she knew the other person.

"He's the Lancer of the Red Team, his real name is Karna, but judging by your appearance, you know him too?"

Looking at Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression, Jeanne suddenly realized that the boy's "recognition" was probably just a one-sided acquaintance with another Karna, just like his acquaintance with herself.

"Eh? Mr. Karna, he's here too?"

Even Mashu was surprised.

The son of the sun god actually appeared in this Holy Grail War?

"Well, it seems you have encountered it in some other singularity..."

Looking at the expressions on the faces of the Chaldean master and servant, Joan of Arc felt relieved. After all, this was the only possibility, and there was no time for her to care about these things now.

"He was also attacked by the puppets, and he was attacked at the same time as me."

Besides, before that, the other party was sent to stop him.

Joan of Arc did not say this, after all, she was just following the orders of the Master.

"I didn't expect that even he would lose..."

Through the conversation between the two, Shishijie also realized how powerful Karna was, but such a powerful person was also "captured alive" by that group of puppets.
