Ian was a little puzzled.

"Ma Xiu, didn't you say that any attack is fine?"

"But this is too much!"

Matthew looked at the "battlefield" in front of him, with a few drops of cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

"It may cause a serious burden on the system later!"

"Sorry about my problem." Ian admitted his mistake cleanly.

"I just wanted to try to see if I could do it."

"..."

Matthew sighed, she calmed down her emotions slightly, and praised Ian instead.

"However, senior is indeed a 'Monster of Group A'. He used 'Servant' for the first time and launched such a powerful attack."

"Fortunately."

Ian looked at the "battlefield" with sadness in his eyes.

"I have seen the possibility that Artoria is more powerful than this."

"Ah?" The girl opened her mouth slightly.

"It's nothing, Matthew." Ian shrugged, "Just think of me as whining."

"but--"

"I would like to ask you another question."

"what is the problem?"

"that is--"

Ian looked at Artoria and Qiu Kulin.

"Are there really only three 'servants' that can be summoned in this simulated battle?"

92. The fourth possibility besides the three simulated servants? ([-] words chapter)

"Eh?"

Before Matthew could recover from Ian's monster-level simulated combat performance, he was confused by his current words again.

"Apart from these three 'servants'?"

"Senior Ian, is this what you want to express?"

"……almost."

"Let me look for it!" Matthew did not immediately deny what Ian said. "I haven't participated in a simulation battle for a while. Maybe the director added new heroic spirit data to it. !”

"Thank you very much, Matthew."

"No matter what, I feel very happy to be able to solve the problem for Senior Ian!"

After saying this, Ma Xiu suddenly realized that his performance seemed to be a bit over the line, so he immediately lowered his head and started operating in a muffled voice.

Her fingers moved back and forth on the empty spot, her whole person looking serious and professional.

but--

The result was not as ideal as expected.

After fussing for a while, Ma Xiu raised his head again with a troubled expression.

"That...Senior Ian."

"what happened?"

"I didn't find anything other than these three 'servants' you mentioned."

After reporting the situation, Ma Xiu seemed a little guilty.

Ian comforted her:

"It's okay, I'm just asking casually, you don't need to care so much."

"Yes, is it?"

Matthew's expression relaxed a little.

But looking at her like this, Ian was thinking about other things.

As early as when he touched Artoria Pendragon's (Saber's) beam of light, he had already encountered some kind of strange feeling.

It was neither a surprise born from the "reunion" with Artoria, nor an unexpected experience from seeing Chaldean magic technology.

Just a feeling of being involved in something.

To describe it as a practical example, it is as if you are holding one end of the rope, and the other end of the rope is pulling an object that you don't know what it is.

He could confirm that it was not the influence of the name Artoria Pendragon (Saber) itself.

So--

Is it a flaw in the simulated combat system?

Or will you feel this way after coming into contact with these "followers"?

Ian decided to solve it right there and then, not leaving doubts behind.

"Matthew."

"Yes, senior!"

"Can I choose again? I want to try other 'servants'."

"Senior, do you want to experience the compatibility between yourself and other 'servants'?"

"Well, that's about it."

"No problem, I'll help you now!"

I saw Mashu's fingers fidgeting again.

Soon, Arturia Pendragon (Saber) and Cu Chulainn (Lancer) disappeared on the "battlefield".

Immediately afterwards, the familiar three pillars of light appeared in front of Ian.

Matthew's voice sounded at the right time.

"Senior, please make your choice again!"

"it is good."

Ian didn't really want to use Archer or Lancer - he wasn't interested in them at all.

His purpose was just to verify whether these two "servants" would give him the same feeling.

The actual results told him: This will not be the case.

Neither Arash (Archer) nor Cu Chulainn (Lancer) felt that way at all.

"Senior, how is it?"

"Did they make you feel more comfortable when they had a servile relationship with you?"

"Uh... just average."

Ian replied casually, bypassing Matthew's question.

He has more things to care about.

"Well, Mashu, since the 'Servant' is the embodiment of the 'heroic spirit' reappearing, won't there be a problem?"

"problem appear?"

"Yes."

Ian looked at the battlefield in front of him where the "Servants" had not yet been summoned.

"If we say that the 'heroic spirits' were all famous heroes during their lifetime, they will be remembered in the history of mankind because they left their own glorious moments in the history of mankind."

"Then shouldn't they all be kings of their respective eras? Would they really be willing to enter into a servile relationship with a stranger?"

"If you think about it further, since you become a 'servant', you can still gain powerful power from human history."

"For a master who lacks strength, isn't it equivalent to asking a child to take care of an adult?"

"Hey, this-?"

Mash's beautiful violet eyes widened slightly.

Obviously, this was not within her knowledge.

"Senior, the question you mentioned... I haven't thought about it at all."

"After all, the simulated combat system has always been researched by the director. I actually don't know much about the underlying magic logic."

"I don't think I can answer such a question."

"oh, I see."

It seems that Matthew is not a universal dictionary.

But Ian was not surprised.

After all, if anyone could find out such an important secret by just asking, then Chaldea would probably be doomed.

"It's okay, I'm just asking casually."

"correct--"

Ian held Artoria Pendragon's (Saber's) beam of light and summoned her to the "battlefield".

"Actually, I've had a question since just now."

"Why was Cullen (Lancer) able to remain standing after receiving the Sword of Victory (Excalibur)?"

"Isn't Excalibur not enough to kill him?"

"Oh...Senior, do you want to know this?"

As Matthew said this, he and Ian once again summoned Cu Chulainn (Lancer) to the "battlefield".

"Because this is a manifestation of the power of the 'heroic spirit'!"

"reflect?"

"Yes!" Matthew nodded.

"The 'heroic spirits' leave their own glorious moments in human history, and these moments, in turn, gain strength from human history and feed back to the 'heroic spirits' themselves."

"Senior, the Sword of Victory (Excalibur) you just mentioned is actually the glorious moments recorded after King Arthur Arturia Pendragon wielded the sword and led the British people to victory in battles one after another. "

"Similarly, other 'heroic spirits' also have their own moments of glory. What Cu Chulainn (Lancer) possesses is the ability called battle continuation. It is a manifestation of legend turning into reality."

"By the way." Mashu waved his finger, "Different ranks are actually a manifestation of strength!"

After listening to her words, Ian thought for a while and said:

"Then if you say so——"

"The same 'heroic spirit' has different ranks and abilities depending on its location in time, right?"

"Yes."

Matthew nodded.

"Such a situation does exist!"

"..."

Matthew's words made Ian fall into thinking.

Since it is possible for the same "servant" to have different ranks, could the feeling I just felt just now be caused by this difference in ranks?

No matter what, let’s feel it first.

It's better to do something wrong than do nothing.

Ian looked at Artoria Pendragon (Saber) in front of him again.
