One soul, two twins, the other half is Bronya

"Is that so? No wonder those two Servants looked so strange just now."

A projection popped up from Fujimaru Ritsuka's bracelet, showing an image of a doctor... That's right, Chaldea is mainly responsible for data analysis.

He looked at Cuchulainn through the projection. "So, Caster, you don't know what's going on either?"

"That's it for now. Well, what else do you have to say, you wimp?"

"Hey, soft...soft-footed shrimp?"

The doctor was a little depressed as he was told this on their first meeting.

He didn't know that this was because of Goetia - Goetia was using his identity as Solomon, which caused the heroic spirits to instinctively dislike him.

Cu Chulainn ignored the doctor and turned his attention to Fujimaru Ritsuka. "Hey, little girl, you haven't answered me yet. Do you want to sign a contract with me?"

"contract?"

Although he didn't quite understand, Fujimaru Ritsuka agreed out of instinct and concluded a temporary contract with Cu Chulainn.

And then……

"By the way, what about you two? You claim to be my junior brothers and sisters, but I've never heard of them~ But considering you just offered a helping hand, I'll temporarily assume you're friends."

Cu Chulainn looked at Bai Ye and the other two, and made a judgment on this matter, but he did not completely trust them.

"I believe them."

At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka finally stood up. As the last master of mankind, she can't just sit there and do nothing. During this period, she has also grown a little bit.

"Not bad~ You finally behave like a master. Now let me test you, where do you think the root of the problem lies?" Bai Ye tested Fujimaru Ritsuka with a slight smile on his face.

Suddenly, both Cu Chulainn and Dr. Roman fell silent - Fujimaru Ritsuka is the Master, she must have sufficient judgment!

"Hey, me?"

Seeing everyone looking at her, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt a little nervous for a moment. But soon, a hand quietly grasped hers—it was Mashu!

"You can do it, senpai."

Facing Mashu's trusting gaze, Fujimaru Ritsuka gradually calmed down, and his thoughts gradually became clearer:

The fire in the city, the changed Holy Grail War, the Servants defeated by Saber, the power of the Holy Grail... yes, the Holy Grail!

"It's Saber, right? The Holy Grail War isn't over yet, so he shouldn't have the Holy Grail in his hands!"

"Not bad, you passed."

At this point, Byakuya reluctantly accepted Ritsuka and formed a temporary contract with her.

“Eh, what is this…?”

After the contract was signed, Fujimaru Ritsuka finally realized that Byakuya and Bronya were actually using the same spiritual base! She unconsciously looked over at Bronya.

"Shh~"

Of course, Bronya also noticed her and slowly raised a finger to her lips, making a "silence" gesture.

"In this case, the target is the Greater Holy Grail. It is the true 'heart' of this land. If a singularity truly exists, it can only be there."

Cu Chulainn concluded, "By the way, Saber is also entrenched there, and so is Archer, who was resurrected by her."

"I probably understand."

Doctor Roman on the video nodded and decided on the next course of action. "Ritsuka, let's head towards the Greater Holy Grail with Caster."

283. Noble Phantasm Unfolds

The Holy Grail is buried in Mount Enzo.

But because of the fire that burned Fuyuki City... or rather, the fire that burned Renri City, all the trees were burned, and the former mountaintops were now bare, leaving behind dry, cracked, and scorched earth.

As the group walked towards Yuanzang Mountain, they occasionally attracted skeleton soldiers for battle.

If they just want to hurry on their way, Bronya can even directly materialize an armored vehicle and run over it.

But that doesn't make sense.

Granted, they have the ability to sweep across the entire singularity, but is that really good for Fujimaru Ritsuka? This is just a "beginner's round," just for them to practice.

——Mashu still needs practice!

If we don't hurry up now, what will happen to the next few singularities? Will Bai Ye and the others have to come here to babysit again and again?

only……

"What's wrong, Mashu? You look depressed. Is there something troubling you?" After experiencing one battle after another, Bronya noticed that something was wrong with Mashu and walked up to her with concern.

"Ms. Bronya?"

Mashu was in a very low mood and didn't react until Bronya approached.

"Well!"

Suddenly, Bronya smacked Mash's forehead with her head, causing her to groan softly. Only then did Bronya withdraw her hand, "Focus."

"You're a shield bearer. If you're always distracted like you are now, how can you protect your Master?"

"I'm sorry, Miss Bronya."

"Hey, why are you apologizing to Bronya... to me? Don't worry about it, just be more careful next time. Tell Bronya... what's bothering Mashu right now?"

Bronya corrected her bad habit once, but gave up the second time.

"Is such that……"

Perhaps sensing Bronya's kindness, Mashu trusted her and told her about the Noble Phantasm, "Ms. Bronya, am I really useless?"

"Fu!"

Standing on Mashu's shoulder, Fufu rubbed Mashu's face and made cute noises, as if to comfort her.

"How could that be? Mashu, you're so cute, there's definitely no problem. Bronya, I've heard people say that beautiful girls can do anything!"

Bronya comforted Mashu and then proposed a solution: "As for the Noble Phantasm? You can try using the Command Spell. This is the quickest way to deal with it."

(Of course she knew the true name of that Noble Phantasm. But considering that Saber and Bedivere didn't tell Mash directly, perhaps there was some deeper meaning behind it?)

"Is this even possible?"

Bronya's suggestion opened Mashu's eyes, and then she thought about it carefully, it seemed...it might really work?

"Thank you, Miss Bronya!"

When Mashu figured it out, she immediately cheered up, thanked Bronya, and trotted towards Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"That's great~"

Seeing this, Bronya also smiled from the bottom of her heart, and then she picked up a furry little beast, "What's wrong, Fufu, why are you here with Bronya?"

"Fu-Fu..."

Fu Fu kicked its short legs in the air with its big pub swinging behind it. Combined with its cute appearance, it was easy for it to win the favor of girls, but... this time was an exception.

"Bronya knows you~Casey Palug."

Having said that, Bronya still held it in her arms and rubbed it hard. It was so cute with its fur.

"Fu!"

The first time her real name was called, Fufu immediately struggled, but still couldn't break free. And then...

"Remember Merlin?"

???

"Fu! Fu——!"

For a moment, Fu Fu's emotions were extremely intense.

It was so small at the time, and that bastard Merlin actually threw it off the tower. It's such a heinous crime!

"Hey, hey, stop kicking."

At this point, even Bronya almost missed it, truly worthy of being the young "Fourth Beast." The others were analyzing the awakening of the Noble Phantasm with the help of the Command Seals, and hadn't noticed this.

"Okay, okay, you'll see him. Remember to kick that guy when you do."

"Fu--!" (One kick is not enough! Merlin must die!)

"Hmm... Although I don't understand what you are saying, Fu Fu is right." Bronya nodded, agreeing with Fu Fu's words while stroking Fu Fu's back.

"Fu——"

"That's right, Merlin, breathe through your gills!"

"Fu!"

For a moment, even though Bronya and Fufu couldn't speak the same language, they strangely reached a consensus. "You asked where he is? If nothing unexpected happens, he should be in the seventh singularity."

At this time, Chaldea had also finished its discussion, and the team stopped and tried to awaken Mashu's Noble Phantasm again.

"Little sister, how about I be your opponent this time?" Cu Chulainn took the initiative to propose.

Mashu looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and saw him nod slightly. Courage welled up in her heart, and she gripped her shield tightly. "Yes, I understand!"

……

In the open field, Mashu and Cu Chulainn stood on both sides, ready for battle.

"Ritsuka, don't be nervous. It is theoretically possible to awaken the Noble Phantasm through the Command Seals." Dr. Roman was also paying attention to this side and spoke to comfort Fujimaru Ritsuka at the right time.

"Whoo~"

Fujimaru Ritsuka let out a long sigh, his mental stress relieved a lot. He looked at Mashu in the field and said, "Thank you, doctor."

"Be careful, little sister~"

At this moment, Cu Chulainn declared an attack with his staff in hand. He swung the staff violently, and a row of runes formed into fireballs that fell towards Mashu, who was standing opposite him.

"I can do this!"

Mashu encouraged herself in her heart, then rushed forward with the cross shield tightly gripped. The heavy shield became smoother in her hands, and she shattered the falling fireball in a few strokes.

"Yes, what about this?"

Because it was just training, Cu Chulainn didn't use any big moves, nor did he use the magic spear. He just used a few small skills to fight the enemy.

however……

Although Cú Chulainn was mostly known for his Lancer class, that didn't mean he was weak as a Caster. Fireballs, vines, frost... and so on, gradually suppressed Mashu.

"Hey, little girl, is that about enough? It's time for you to use the Command Seal."

As he spoke, Cu Chulainn controlled the fireball to gather together. The huge fireball was like a small sun, emitting endless light and heat, and slowly fell towards Mashu.

"Command with the Command Seal, Mashu, unfold your Noble Phantasm!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka had been prepared long ago. She extended a hand and gave a command in a formal manner, and the Command Seal on the back of her hand disappeared.

“Ahhhh——!!!”

Finally, with Mashu's desperate roar, a large amount of magic power surged out of her body, building a vague and hazy wall around her, greatly improving her defense.

There was no way, Mashu was standing outside the city wall, and she had to take the blow by herself.

"boom--!"

"Matthew!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned for a moment, then quickly rushed towards the battlefield. She hadn't expected this... What kind of Noble Phantasm was this? How could someone stay outside the wall?

"I'm fine, senior."

Mashu's voice echoed through the smoke and dust rising from the explosion. She rushed out from the smoke and dust, clutching her shield. She looked dusty, but she was actually not injured.

The Noble Phantasm was now usable, and Mashu's worries faded away.

She tilted her head, her short pink hair swaying slightly in the wind, and she gave Fujimaru Ritsuka a gentle smile.
