Ex-Machina in Dimensional Travel

Overwhelmed by the "human heart", Mashu could only give a dull response. Seeing this, the boy laughed dryly and then looked at the others.

"Fu~"

A small white beast also jumped out from the corner and jumped onto Mashu's shoulder.

"Ah, it's Fufu, we're back~"

Seeing this creature that looked like a "pet", Mashu looked particularly happy.

"It's not that hard..."

At least in the boy's mind, this trip to the singularity started well but ended badly. Strictly speaking, they didn't seem to have done anything except getting beaten.

Hmm... if I could even talk to the person behind the scenes and "persuade" him to show mercy, that would count.

Seeing the young man's depressed look, Roman didn't say much. He just sent the rest of the people to rest before coming to the former.

He placed his palm on the boy's shoulder, and in the latter's puzzled look, the orange-haired young man gave a thumbs-up with his other hand.

"Don't think too much about it. You should rest for a while since you just got back. And check your body."

At this point, Roman's expression quickly turned serious.

"We're more worried about the object inside you."

He still remembered the "block that was created inside the body" that Fujimaru Ritsuka had wanted to explain to him during the previous communication, although the person involved, Shul, had explained its purpose.

But as a doctor, Roman still couldn't let go. He was worried that the object would cause harm to the boy's body.

However, this expression disappeared quickly.

"But before that, would you like to eat something?"

"No, I just ate before I came back, so I'm not hungry now."

In response to Roman's invitation, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and declined.

"That's all I can do. I'll treat you to strawberry cake next time."

Roman withdrew his arm regretfully, as if he hadn't shared something he liked.

"Ahahaha, maybe next time."

The young man laughed dryly. He wanted to go back to his room to rest for a while. Naturally, he didn't want to stay here and continue chatting.

"Don't forget to come for a checkup later."

Da Vinci also joined in the conversation. After reminding the young man to remember to go to the infirmary for a physical examination on time, he left with Dr. Roman to deal with other work.

Soon, only Ritsuka Fujimaru and Mashu were left in the spirit particle transfer room.

"Fu~"

Oh, and there's a beast.

"That's really weird. They told us to go meet up, but when we got there they told us to come back first."

Finally having some free time, Mashu began to complain about her experience before leaving.

"And Miss Da Vinci and the others didn't even mention this."

Mashu still remembered that Shul had a special conversation with the two elders before he tentatively decided to join Chaldea, but now none of the three parties involved cared.

After all, he said he wanted to be with them, but ended up sending them away first. I really don’t understand what the other party was thinking.

"Well, maybe Miss Shule has her own unique way of crossing worlds?"

Shuul never revealed his identity as an "outsider", so when Fujimaru Ritsuka said this, it was just a guess.

"After all, look."

Fujimaru Ritsuka pointed to his chest.

"Miss Xiuer inserted a positioning device into my body before, didn't she?"

The boy spoke easily, as if the object was not stuffed inside him.

After all, they all have the ability to transfer space, so they probably also have the ability to travel across worlds.

"Senior, please don't joke with your own safety."

"But speaking of this, Senior, are you really okay?"

After all, Xuer's "positioning device" directly hit the boy's body.

"Fu?"

The little beast named Fufu, standing on Mashu's shoulder, listened to the conversation between the two and tilted its head in confusion.

"Ah, Fufu?"

Upon hearing that there was a "foreign object" in Fujimaru Ritsuka's body, this creature, which seemed to be a little too intelligent, suddenly jumped into Fujimaru Ritsuka's arms.

The fluffy tail brushed across the boy's nose, making him itchy.

"Hahaha, Fufu, there's really nothing wrong with my body."

The other person's act of examining his body made the young man feel itchy all over.

He suppressed a smile and handed the white-haired creature in his arms back to Mashu.

Then, as if afraid that the other party would come again, the boy immediately left Mashu and ran to the door.

"I'm a little tired now, so I'll go back to my room and rest. If you need anything, just come find me later, Mashu. That's all, bye!"

"Eh? Senior?!"

The girl hurriedly ran to the door with Fu Fu, who looked confused, but what she saw was the back of the person who had already turned the corner.

"Ugh……"

In the end, Mashu could only sigh helplessly.

"Fu?"

Fufu, who was in the boy's arms, looked up at the former's expression in confusion. It seemed that the creature failed to understand what was happening.

……

----

……

Five hours later.

Didi... Didi...

It was the communicator in his room that woke Fujimaru Ritsuka up.

The boy opened his bleary eyes and looked at the communication table hanging on the wall of the room. On the blue screen was Roman's amiable face.

"How's your rest, Fujimaru-kun?"

"Ha~"

He stretched his stiff shoulders a few times, but there was still some sleepiness on the boy's face.

"It's okay, just wait a minute, I'll be in the infirmary in a few minutes."

The boy responded quickly, straightening his coat. He had just returned to his room and went straight to bed dressed.

"No wonder I felt a bit uncomfortable sleeping..."

However, before he could finish packing, Roman on the communication screen smiled helplessly.

“This, actually, is no longer needed.”

"Eh?"

Roman's sudden change of mind was so unexpected that Ritsuka Fujimaru, who had just woken up and whose brain was not fully awake, did not understand the current situation for a while.

"Give."

Before Roman could explain why, a flash of blue-purple suddenly floated past the corner of his vision.

Then, a small hand holding a cream bread was brought to the boy's face.

"Ah, thank you..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka subconsciously thanked him, took the opened bread and took a bite.

"milk."

Just after taking a bite, another "drink" was handed to me.

The boy quickly freed his left hand to take the cup.

"Ah, thank you."

The boy's brain, having just woken up, was not yet clear, and he had not yet realized his current situation. At this moment, he was fully focused on Roman on the communication screen.

After drinking a sip of milk, Fujimaru Ritsuka's brain began to gradually "wake up".

The first thing he saw after his vision cleared was Roman on the communicator, with a teasing expression on his face.

"Dr. Roman, what are you laughing at...?"

"Ok?"

wrong!

Is there anything purple in my room?

As if he remembered something, the sleepiness on the boy's face disappeared instantly.

He turned his head stiffly and looked in the direction where the unusual "color" had appeared before.

Then, his eyes met with a pair of golden ones.

Xiuer sat quietly at the head of the boy's bed. His childlike petite body looked particularly adorable in front of the boy. On his delicate face, a pair of golden inorganic eyes flashed with a faint fluorescence.

In this room dominated by white, this touch of purple is particularly eye-catching.

Looking at the boy who suddenly froze in front of him, Xiuer tilted his head in confusion and blinked.

He quickly lowered his head and pinched his chin, as if thinking about something.

After taking a second to think, he raised his head and looked at the boy again.

"Good morning……?"

……

Chaldea employee cafeteria.

If anyone came in here, they would see their technical advisor Ms. Da Vinci sitting at a dining table and talking with their current only master, Fujimaru Ritsuka.

And next to the latter, there was a petite, delicate girl sitting there who seemed to have "three-no" attributes (if you ignore the huge metal ring on the "girl's" head), which was a strange scene.

"Eh—so that's why you were making so much noise so early in the morning~"

Ms. Da Vinci, holding a cup of coffee, looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was a little restless, with a teasing look on her face.

The culprit who caused his current condition was none other than the "guy" standing next to him.

Xiuer tilted his head, seeming to be confused by the boy's reaction.

"Who could have known such a thing? I was almost scared to death at that time."

The boy covered his chest, acting as if what he said really happened.

"...?"

Xiuer didn't say anything, just looked at the boy in confusion.

He subconsciously recalled Fujimaru Ritsuka's reaction at the time. Apart from the fact that his heartbeat suddenly increased, there was no risk of "fatal".

Therefore, it can be concluded that the other party's words were an exaggerated "joke".

"Hmmmmmm..."

On the side, a blonde lady who was having breakfast passed by and saw this scene came over to join in the fun, and made a "hmm" sound.

This attracted Shule's attention. Of course, the main reason was that Shule could tell at a glance that the other person was a "Servant".

His gaze moved from the ahoge on the other person's head, all the way down, across the bright red dress and the pair of white thighs.

Oh my, this person is dressed so revealingly.
