"I think Fuyuki City is far more dangerous than what the Lostbelts and Chaldea are going through right now. Explosions happen all the time, and beams of light suddenly appear in the sky."

"That's right. The situation is really dire! It's like waking up early in the morning to find that all the data up to yesterday has been corrupted. When something like this happens, all you can do is laugh it off."

Sion pursed his lips, closed his eyes, and pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure out how the enemy had done it. "No, now is not the time to give up thinking."

"The situation is urgent. Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mash, assemble at the control room immediately!!"

“I understand. Let’s go, Master.” Mashu stood up and took Fujimaru Ritsuka’s hand. The two quickly dressed, cleaned up the battlefield, and rushed to the control room.

“We’ve arrived! Miss Sion, what exactly happened—!?” Mash asked, looking at Sion. She noticed the clean control room was undamaged.

Fujimaru Ritsuka frowned, carefully examining the surrounding equipment. All of it was intact; the enemy hadn't destroyed anything here!?

"Before that, I need to ask you something. On your way here, did you encounter anyone? Whether they were public officials or heroic spirits, it doesn't matter!!"

"—That's right. I was discussing this with my senior on the way here, and I didn't see a single person today... Could it be that this has something to do with the [attack] I mentioned earlier?"

"As expected... I was hoping it was just a few individuals hiding using abilities like concealment. But the moment I realized that not only were the staff in the control room gone, but even the technicians, Leonardo da Vinci, and the famous detective Sherlock Holmes were absent, I immediately severed the interference with your convergent causality, protecting you..."

Upon discovering the crisis, Sion unhesitatingly used the most appropriate means to seize the spark of hope, "In the end, only the two of you were saved, along with me, who had severed all ties with human history..."

"Sion...? What's wrong?" Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the uncomfortable expression on Sion's face and couldn't help but ask with concern.

asked.

"Ah, I'm sorry. Let's leave the reflection and countermeasures to other considerations and get down to business. The attack on us was as you saw. Even with the alarms sounding and me issuing a call to arms, only the two of you came to the control room for an emergency assembly. Yes, just as you and Mash suspected. Now, everyone except us has vanished from this New Chaldea base in the Wandering Sea—!!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka gently patted her cheeks and breathed slowly. There was no use in being anxious now; she had to come up with a solution as soon as possible and start taking action to find her missing companion.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation, the first time he had ever encountered such a bizarre situation where all the staff had disappeared.

"Even if we activate the Spirit Origin Portrait now, the number of Servants that can be summoned is zero. Not to mention the control room, even the Chaldea staff who were on standby have all disappeared without a trace."

Sion said with a headache, "My captain is also gone. Only the few of us are left. In other words, this may be an obstruction, or even an act of aggression, from an external enemy. And it is clearly malicious."

Fujimaru Ritsuka sat in front of the computer in the control room, switching between the monitoring systems in New Chaldea. Although he believed Sion's words, he still wanted to witness it with his own eyes.

The shipyard is gone, the Chaldea kitchen is gone, the Chaldea restaurant is gone, the corridor... no matter how Fujimaru Ritsuka switches the scene, she can't see a single person.

"How on earth did they do that...?"

Now he doesn't even know how the enemy did it, what the enemy looks like, or who the enemy is. Even if he wanted to go and fight the enemy or rescue his comrades, he has no clue where to start.

This is no longer the feeling of powerlessness like punching cotton; it's the predicament of being faced with emptiness and having to outwit and outmaneuver the air.

"Although the specific circumstances require further investigation, the methods used are quite clear."

Sion had just detected some clues through the detection device: "Spiritual particle transfer. This is a forced reverse spiritual particle summoning technique that used spiritual particle transfer—"

"To put it simply, everyone was forcibly transferred away by spiritual particles using my basket as a catalyst."

"This...is this method really possible!?" Mashu had never heard of it before. This method is too terrifying. It forcibly summons you to another place without your consent.

Where this thing appears, danger lurks everywhere. What should we do if a group of rude and barbaric orcs appear before the heroic spirits?

Wouldn't that result in the saint encountering a goblin, with no one to turn to for help?

“If Chaldea were here, perhaps it could be done. But this is Neo-Chaldea. There is no navigation system with such a high phase here, so it is impossible to reverse the system here to perform a reverse summon.”

Suddenly, Sion paused, looking worried, and said, "I was going to say 'almost 99 percent impossible!'... But... if we're just talking about probability, there might actually be one or two feasible solutions."

"But those are all absurd assumptions, so let's put them aside for now. It seems I'm not qualified to criticize Sherlock Holmes either. Because, if we're comparing this to the deduction of a locked-room murder, it's already comparable to 'the universe's greatest pitcher kills the target through a ventilation duct by throwing a ball!'"

"The situation has escalated to this point. Unless the theory of a 'universe's strongest pitcher truly exists..."

“Miss Sion, let’s put aside that wonderful analogy for now. Shouldn’t we be discussing how to rescue Leonardo da Vinci and Goldruff?” Fujimaru Ritsuka interrupted, fearing that Leonardo da Vinci and Goldruff’s lives would be in danger if Miss Sion continued rambling on.

"Hey, sorry. Anyway, back to our previous topic. In short, this is all the fighting force we have left. Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mashu, and me. Yeah."

"What is the enemy's objective? Who is it, and why are they doing this?" Mash pressed.

She prayed in her heart that the one who performed the reverse summoning was not an alien god, not a hidden one, and not a Lostbelt king.

If it's one of these three, then the summoned Heroic Spirits, Chaldea staff, Leonardo da Vinci, Holmes, and Goldrov are truly doomed.

"It's impossible to determine right now. However, I don't think this is an attack from the Hidden Ones. They have no reason to leave their Lostbelt. Also, there's a thin path connecting me to my personal Servant, the captain. Yet he hasn't taken any action, which means he's probably imprisoned and his mobility is restricted."

With her beautiful eyes closed, Sion felt the connection between herself and the captain. The captain's vital signs were now stable, and his life was not in danger.

"I suspect that the other Servants and staff who signed contracts with Chaldea are in the same situation as the captain."

"Is everyone safe and sound now?!" Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Shion with surprise and asked eagerly.

“Yes, Miss Sion, there are non-magicians among the Chaldea staff. If spirit particle transfer did indeed occur, what would happen to their bodies…”

Mashu was very worried that the staff who did not have the ability to adapt to spirit transfer might simply disappear during the summoning process.

"I know you're worried that they won't be able to withstand the spiritual particle transfer and that something might happen at their destination, causing them to disappear into the imaginary space, right?"

Hion recognizes

Shin stared intently at Mashu, his tone heavy: "I cannot deny the possibility of this worst-case scenario. But this time, we shouldn't need to worry about that. Because the destination of the spirit particle transfer is not 'ordinary history'."

"In other words, it's not time travel, but more like spatial travel. If that's the case, then my container can definitively guarantee their existence. However, if they are subjected to violence at the destination of the spiritual particle transfer, I cannot guarantee their personal safety."

Upon hearing this, Mashu clenched her fists, filled with worry and eager to immediately perform a spirit transfer to reunite with her companions.

“But if that’s the case, then there’s no point in specifically transferring spirit particles, right?” Sion’s way of speaking made Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu’s moods go through a rollercoaster, with one piece of bad news followed by another piece of good news. “If we think about it logically, I guess the enemy’s goal is not to kill these people, but to summon them and then capture them.”

"If it were me, I would freeze them immediately after summoning and package and preserve them in a spirit-particle state. This is necessary for targets with low spirit particle adaptability, otherwise they would die. This method can also solve the additional danger caused by the Servants' resistance."

"Since we're going to use the Spirit Particle Transfer technique, this is the most efficient way to do it."

"So, there's still a chance they can be rescued, right!" Mashu breathed a sigh of relief, hoping everyone was safe and sound. Hang in there! My senior and I will come to rescue you right away.

"Miss Sion, since a spirit transfer has been carried out, what is the current destination of the Chaldea staff and the Heroic Spirits?" Fujimaru Ritsuka asked.

“Of course! Because that’s the most important thing!” Sion gave a thumbs up and said confidently, “When I arrived at the control room, all the parameters of the spirit particle transfer-related machinery had been fixed. These devices are still pointing to a fixed coordinate.”

"Because this time we were summoned by the other side's reversal, the person who did this must be at these coordinates. Although I don't know whether the other side forgot to erase the traces, or was unable to erase them due to an unavoidable reaction force, or whether it was an unknown enemy deliberately misleading us."

"Where exactly is it? Is it a singularity that happened in the past...?" Mash pressed.

"This singularity is different from other singularities. While maintaining its singularity space, it also attempts to interfere with pan-human history. Its existence may be closer to that of a Lostbelt. A singularity is a 'stain' that pollutes the surrounding human history, ultimately weakening the scroll of human history. A Lostbelt, on the other hand, is another scroll that should be discarded because it is meaningless even if it exists."

"Coordinates left by an unknown enemy, this is closer to the Shinjuku Incident and the Shimozusa Incident—a subspecies singularity. The central coordinates of this singularity are located in Japan in the mid-17th century, during the Edo period."

“Da Vinci, Holmes… Goldruff, the Chaldea staff are waiting for us!” Mash and Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Sion anxiously, wanting to perform a spirit transfer and rush over while the passage to the new subspecies singularity was still open.

"Yes, I understand your eagerness to save your companion, and I also want to save the captain. But I'm sorry, I can't let the two of you go to the subspecies singularity together."

Under Fujimaru Ritsuka's questioning gaze, Sion looked at Mash helplessly and said, "Look at this huge control room. Right now, I'm all alone, and I can't even keep up with observing the singularities. I need Miss Mash to stay and support Fujimaru Ritsuka with me. If we want to observe and prove the existence of the crucial Fujimaru Ritsuka, I need an excellent operator."

"We need someone who can do the work of three Chaldea staff members on their own."

"This—!? But...but..." Mashu knew the situation was terrible and Miss Sion needed support, but she couldn't bring herself to leave her senior.

"That means only you, senpai, will be left at the new singularity!!"

"That's right. But it's a matter of priorities. Is it better to dive into the deep sea with guards but without diving suits, or to dive without guards but with diving suits on?" Sion couldn't back down on matters of principle; it concerned the future of humanity.

"This is no longer a question of which side is safer. It's about the necessary conditions for existence in that world."

"But going to a dangerous singularity without even a single Servant... I wonder what kind of enemies await you there." Mashu was worried, fearing that Fujimaru Ritsuka would be tied up and torn apart by unknown enemies after appearing at the new singularity.

“That’s a very valid point, but if it’s up to Fujimaru Ritsuka to make the decision.” Sion looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka. She believed in this master who had saved humanity, and she believed that the boy’s journey was not based on luck, but on his true strength.

“Although I’m scared, everyone is very uneasy right now, so I’m willing to go alone. Mash, stay here and assist Miss Sion.” Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little flustered, but she wouldn’t back down. Fear aside, she had to face things bravely.

Retreating was not something the doctor had taught him.

"That's right. Actually, we're all in the same danger. The base being attacked means that those of us who stay here could be attacked at any time. Right now, all we can do is be prepared and go to the site to gather weapons or find helpers."

Chion believed in the neon lights of the seventeenth century

It shouldn't be that dangerous yet.

Deep Sea Cyber ​​Paradise World, Second Playthrough Timeline.

"It's alright, woof! Master will definitely be fine, woof!! Hehehe, maybe this time a powerful and beautiful girl will appear to save Master!! I still have great faith in Master's luck with women!"

Tamamo Cat waved its paws and patted the back of Shirou Emiya—no, I mean, Black Emiya Shirou—ignoring the extremely painful expression on his face.

"You agree, right, Di Gong?! Meow meow meow, maybe we'll meet again in 17th-century Japan this time!! If there's evil here, Di Gong will definitely appear too, right?"

"...I don't know, don't ask me. Please stay away from me..." Black Emiya Shirou said with considerable disdain, preferring to be with Ishtar rather than get too close to Tamamo Cat.

If he were summoned along with Tamamo Cat, he might not hesitate to blow Tamamo Cat's head off with a single shot.

"How boring... It's 17th-century neon, so there's no chance for Elizabeth to make an appearance!! This place is totally unsuitable for me. Choosing this place as their base, it seems the mastermind has terrible taste."

Elizabeth waved her hand, stroked her jet-black dragon tail, and started doing some weight loss exercises, as her tail had recently become quite chubby.

Kirei Kotomine stood expressionless to the side, stir-frying spicy Mapo Tofu and turning the wok.

"I wonder if Melt Lilith and I will ever have the chance to appear by Master's side again." Passenlip looked expectantly at Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was preparing to go to the Singularity alone.

"Who will answer your summons at this subspecies singularity... I hope they will all be powerful Heroic Spirits."

Meltlilith prayed that Fujimaru Ritsuka in this world would never face a life-threatening crisis again.

Hopefully, we won't see any Servants like Robin Hood, Elizabeth, Tamamo Cat, or Ishtar who are prone to making mistakes.

Ideally, she should be someone like Gawain, Spartacus, Mordred, or Meltlilith—powerful and reliable.

Could BB have been captured too? Wasn't she always in Chaldea?

Meltlilith was a little uneasy that she hadn't seen BB cause trouble for Fujimaru Ritsuka for so long; it didn't fit BB's terrible personality.

“Master, you will be safe and sound. The courage you exude will light the way forward. I see in you the radiance that only an invincible king can possess.”

Knight Gawain of the Round Table firmly believed that his master would not be defeated by the difficulties before him.

While it was indeed dangerous to venture alone into enemy territory, it wasn't without a chance; it all depended on who one might encounter in 17th-century Japan.

The Hidden One.

Kirshtalia Wodim watched Fujimaru Ritsuka's retreating figure with satisfaction, seeing in him the image of a great man. "Doctor, is this the master you've nurtured? His growth rate is truly astonishing."

Beryl Gat cut off the communication with a bright smile on his face, his expression instantly turning gloomy, as if he had been disciplined by Moss. He clenched his fists tightly, blood dripping from his hands.

Watching Mashu worry about Fujimaru Ritsuka, watching Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka sleep together, watching Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka snuggle together...

Blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth; he was nearly driven mad by what was being shown on the screen.

Now that Fujimaru Ritsuka has gained the First Emperor's approval and carries the future of humanity on his shoulders, he has become a clown for instigating Koyanskaya to poison him.

Even among the Hidden Ones, they are disliked by humans, despised by everyone, and even fairies would spit on them.

The Lostbelt of Kyushu, returning to the Wandering Sea timeline.

"A reverse forced summoning spell!? This...this...this shouldn't be something Goyanskaya did, right? Could it be a new subordinate of the Alien God, someone we've been unaware of all along?"

Goldrov was stunned, as if he could see himself fast asleep in his room when he inexplicably underwent a spiritual transfer, and when he opened his eyes, he was a prisoner.

This is too tragic, it couldn't be more tragic.

His face was pale. The death rate of the Chaldea commander was truly alarming. Could this incident be the death of him?

"Unforgivable! The culprit deserves to die!" Nezha will not let her get away with ruining her time with her master.

"I suddenly remembered someone. Could this be the work of that Alterego who looks like a monk? Just like the previous Shimosa Country subspecies singularity incident?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka said suspiciously, making a bold assumption that this might be an improvement in Ashiya Doman's methods.

“Very likely! The magic used by that Alterego is very similar to the Yin-Yang magic that exists in Japan!” Da Vinci nodded. It was indeed very likely. He just didn’t know why Ashiya Doman suddenly possessed such powerful abilities.

"An enemy whose identity is still unknown has summoned us all. What are they planning to do? Is it really necessary to involve ordinary staff members who have no magical talent? Even if we eat them, it won't increase our strength. Could this be a being like Koyanskaya, who just enjoys toying with and torturing humans?"

"Then we don't know what the other party's intention is."

"That's it. It's impossible for them to forcibly summon so many people to watch their own concert," Sherlock Holmes said, unless Elizabeth was the mastermind behind the new subspecies singularity...

Kaguya-sama: Love Is War timeline.

"A reverse forced summoning spell... This reminds me of a game I recently played that has a very similar plot!" Ishigami Yu didn't say the rest of the sentence, because that was a game where you forcibly summon a beautiful girl and force her to become a hero to eliminate orcs, goblins, and demon kings.

That game is absolutely rubbish! A goddess from another world forcibly summons a beautiful girl from a modern city, forces her to become a hero, and assigns her such a dangerous mission.

In the end, they didn't give you any cheat codes or magical artifacts, and just left without a word. Before leaving, they made a promise: the day it's done will be the day you return to your original world.
