Did Ritsuka Fujimaru Pass Out? / Merlin

"I don't drink." Mikaela sighed, rubbing her forehead. He was a good kid who didn't drink, smoke, or gamble.

"Drink a little bit, it'll make things more interesting." Cú Chulainn walked out of the training room and continued, "If you can't drink hard liquor, drink some fruit wine. Anyway, it's not much different from a soft drink."

"Listen to what people are saying."

Mikaela followed Cú Chulainn out of the training room. He looked at Cú Chulainn's back with a helpless expression. Another guy who wouldn't listen to anyone.

"How heartwarming, Chaldea," the Shopkeeper's Daughter exclaimed. She had experienced heartwarming organizations more than once during her journey.

However, this was the first time she had joined such an organization with Mikaela and experienced its warm side.

"Let's go find the next person." Mikaela didn't seem to care much. After all, although he had only known those Servant for a few days, the short period of contact didn't mean they weren't familiar with each other.

He went to find the next Servant.

"Huh? Are you inviting us?" Brynhildr was currently 'cleaning'. Although she could use Primal Runes to clean, the Valkyrie seemed to prefer doing the cleaning herself.

She blinked, clearly quite surprised by Mikaela's arrival, since she didn't 'know' Mikaela and the two had hardly interacted at all.

If we had to pinpoint any connection, it would probably be during the last battle against that being known as the 'King of Magic,' when she was summoned by him to fight alongside Sigurd and Valkyrie.

"Hmm." Mikaela nodded slightly. Although he and Brynhildr hadn't spoken much, Brunhilde had given him the power to turn his sister into a 'golden cube'.

Mikaela still felt a little guilty, so if possible, he wanted to take her to the beach.

"Sure." Brynhildr smiled gently. Although she didn't know Mikaela, for some reason she found Mikaela very pleasing to the eye, just like her sister Valkyrie.

"Unfortunately, Sigurd wasn't summoned." Mikaela sighed. To be honest, he had a good impression of Sigurd.

The opponent is a decent guy, and as Servant, he is quite qualified. He doesn't consume mana and his combat power is extremely strong. Even among top-tier Servant, he is one of the best.

If he were summoned, he might be able to become Fujimaru Ritsuka's bodyguard.

"No need. That guy shouldn't have been summoned in the first place."

At that moment, Valkyrie appeared out of nowhere. She glanced calmly at Mikaela, then without a word, pounced into Brynhildr's arms, revealing a cat-like expression of blissful laziness.

"Really..." Brynhildr looked somewhat helpless. Her sister would never accept Sigurd, which gave her a real headache.

"Then I'll come find you once everything is arranged." Mikaela saw Valkyrie and Brynhildr together and didn't want to be a third wheel. She just mentioned it briefly and then prepared to leave.

"I want to go too."

At this moment, Valkyrie stopped acting cute. She had a vivid memory of Mikaela, after all, the latter had absorbed her Spirit Origin and possessed most of her power.

Valkyrie also remembers that there was a sister named 'Brynhildr' inside her.

"Okay." Mikaela nodded, said nothing more, and left with the Shopkeeper's Daughter. Now that there seemed to be enough people, he prepared to return to his room to rest.

"Bye-bye~" The Shopkeeper's Daughter waved to Valkyrie and Brynhildr, then skipped and hopped after Mikaela.

After walking for a while, Mikaela suddenly stopped and looked at the handsome white-haired man in a modern suit in the corridor. She asked with a hint of doubt, "Did you need something from me, Karna?"

Indeed, the visitor was Karna, who stood quietly in the middle of the corridor, next to Mikaela's room.

He was clearly waiting here specifically for Mikaela's return.

"..." Karna silently stared at Mikaela, the great hero from Indian mythology, known as the hero of charity. At this moment, he seemed to be mute, just quietly looking at Mikaela.

"So handsome." Although the Shopkeeper's Daughter had seen many handsome men, this was the first time she had seen such a top-notch handsome man as Karna, whose looks and temperament were both excellent.

People share the same aesthetic standards; beautiful women are welcomed, and so are handsome men.

Mikaela also seemed somewhat helpless at this moment. Back when he first mastered his ability, he had experimented with how much energy his transformation ability required.

He chose several different characters to transform into at the time.

When Mikaela first transformed into Karna, the result was that she almost starved to death.

Under the questioning gazes of Mikaela and the Shopkeeper's Daughter, Karna slowly spoke, "There are many Servant gathered at Da Vinci's side, and most of them want to have swimsuits custom-made."

"I made a few inquiries and heard that you gathered them together to go to the beach."

At this point, Karna paused for a moment, then looked up and stared directly at Mikaela, asking, "Can I come along?"

Chapter 498 Fujimaru Ritsuka has fainted?

Faced with the uninvited Indian hero, Mikaela naturally agreed to his request.

After all, the other party was one of the beings that responded to his summons, and when fighting the Demon God Pillar, the other party was one of the Servant who fought extremely hard.

Unlike that 'useless strategist' who secretly unleashes a few magical energy beams and then gasps for breath after releasing his Noble Phantasm.

Karna was a truly powerful individual who single-handedly held off more than a dozen Demon God Pillar, even though the Demon God Pillar were in their true forms at that time.

Karna, who hadn't yet unleashed his full power, blocked more than a dozen Demon God Pillar. Just as they were about to unleash their ultimate attacks, Mikaela transformed into King Solomon, causing the Demon God Pillar and Goetia to tremble in fear.

"Thanks."

After seeing that Mikaela had agreed to his request, Karna smiled and turned around, seemingly preparing to leave.

"Why?" Mikaela asked, watching Karna's retreating figure. He was still puzzled as to why Karna had come uninvited.

Fujimaru Ritsuka has not yet reached the Fifth Singularity and has not yet formed a bond with Karna.

Karna's appearance at Chaldea is undoubtedly due to Fujimaru Ritsuka using something she left behind to summon him.

Moreover, the fact that the other party seemed to 'know' him was the most puzzling thing.

In the spiritual realm, Karna only watched him from afar and never spoke a word to him.

Logically speaking, the two parties were not familiar with each other, so why did he take the initiative to join this event?

Seemingly sensing Mikaela's doubts, Karna paused for a moment, then turned around and said calmly, "I'm truly sorry I didn't help you that time."

A hint of surprise flashed in Mikaela's eyes. He looked at Karna's calm expression and said with a touch of helplessness, "... Don't worry about it. It's my own fault."

"I could have helped you defeat the enemy, but I didn't take any action, not even in the end. I just watched quietly from the sidelines as you got to where you are now." Karna's voice was very calm, and he naturally placed all the blame on himself.

"Now, let me watch you. If anyone dares to disrupt this moment, I will eliminate them."

With those words, Karna left the corridor, and he meant it sincerely.

No one knows what hardships and suffering Mikaela went through to get to where she is today.

Karna, one of the original transformation characters, knew very well that he had watched Mikaela grow from a powerless mortal into a being whose strength rivaled that of a god.

Having traveled so far, Mikaela finally decided to stop and admire the scenery after being persuaded by others.

Karna felt he couldn't stand idly by any longer, so he decided to step in and protect Mikaela, at least ensuring that no one would interfere with her rest while she was playing on the beach.

"So handsome." The Shopkeeper's Daughter looked at Karna's back and exclaimed in amazement, "What a pity, if I didn't already have someone I like, I might have fallen for him."

Aren't you tempted?

The Shopkeeper's Daughter glanced at Mikaela, who was standing there somewhat stunned, and said with a mischievous smile, "Could it be? You're bewitched?"

"Don't joke around, I'm just a little surprised." Mikaela rolled her eyes, clearly speechless at the Shopkeeper's Daughter's words. He was a man, after all; how could he possibly be infatuated with Karna?

Mikaela was genuinely surprised, after all, besides King Hassan, Karna was probably the second being to communicate with her in reality.

Mikaela originally thought that the second person she would communicate with would be Artoria (Alter), but she didn't expect it to be Karna.

Mikaela had originally planned to take Artoria (Alter) to the beach for a trip.

However, it's a bit of a shame that the opponent wasn't summoned by Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"Let's go back to our room." Mikaela prepared to go back to her room to rest.

"Kindness."

The Shopkeeper's Daughter nodded. Although she had her own room, she preferred to spend time with Mikaela.

Just as the two were about to return to their room, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded, and Doctor Roman came running over, out of breath. He looked at Mikaela and said urgently, "Fujimaru Ritsuka has fainted!!!"

"!!!"

Mikaela turned her head sharply.

In the infirmary, Fujimaru Ritsuka lay on the hospital bed, her eyes closed and her breathing even, looking as if she were asleep.

Beside them were Olga Marie in her pajamas, Doctor Roman, and Irisviel, Brynhildr, Mikaela, and the Shopkeeper's Daughter, who had just been brought over.

"I didn't sense anything unusual." Irisviel used the power of the Holy Grail within her to roughly examine Fujimaru Ritsuka's body. She shook her head and said with certainty, "Her physical condition is perfectly healthy, and there are no problems with her soul either. It's as if she has simply fallen asleep."

"I didn't feel anything unusual either."

Brynhildr also shook her head. She used the Primal Runes to examine Fujimaru Ritsuka's physical condition and came to only one conclusion.

That means the other person has entered a sleep state, so no abnormalities can be detected.

Is Fujimaru Ritsuka's health really bad? No, her health is not bad at all.

Under Olga Marie's 'final command', Fujimaru Ritsuka, the last human Master, underwent intensive training.

It's impossible for Fujimaru Ritsuka's physical condition to be so bad that she would suddenly fall into a coma.

"What happened during that time?" Mikaela asked calmly, looking at Doctor Roman beside her. "Tell me everything that happened before the incident."

"Yes."

Doctor Roman nodded, his breathing now much more stable, and gave a brief account of the situation.

Before falling into a coma, Fujimaru Ritsuka was preparing to summon Servant with Mash, after all, she had previously made contracts with so many Servant in the Sixth Singularity.

Now, of course, we should summon them and take a gamble! Maybe we can turn a bicycle into a motorcycle! Perhaps we can even draw out the incredibly powerful Lion King and Sun King.

With this in mind, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash went to the Summoning Department to prepare for the Servant ritual.

Then, during the preparation for the summoning, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly fell into a deep sleep, and if Mash hadn't been there to protect her, she would have been in serious trouble.

Perhaps Fujimaru Ritsuka is about to get a big bump on the back of her head.

"..." After hearing this, Mikaela fell into deep thought. He walked to Fujimaru Ritsuka's side, looked at the sleeping Fujimaru Ritsuka, and began to speculate.

There are only three possibilities that could cause Fujimaru Ritsuka to be in this state.

Firstly, Edmund Dantès, also known as the Count of Monte Cristo or the Lord of the Earl, imprisoned Fujimaru Ritsuka's soul, forcing her to fight on her own.

However, since Fujimaru Ritsuka's soul was unharmed, this possibility can be ruled out.

Second: Fujimaru Ritsuka, while fast asleep, unknowingly traveled to another world, where she encountered Miyamoto Musashi and embarked on an adventure that is unimaginable to ordinary people.

Third: Merlin is behind this.

Chapter 499 Merlin

Of these three possibilities, the least likely is that Merlin is behind it, or that the Earl imprisoned Fujimaru Ritsuka's soul.

Rather, it's the possibility that Fujimaru Ritsuka's soul has wandered to another world.

In the original work, Fujimaru Ritsuka's soul ended up in another world due to a series of coincidences.

Among these coincidences, there is a very important premise: that Fujimaru Ritsuka voluntarily fell asleep.

Instead of falling into a deep sleep without any warning while preparing to summon a Servant.

This is clearly unreasonable and quite abnormal, which is why Mash and Doctor Roman are so anxious.

Even Olga Marie, who had been sleeping for twelve hours and was preparing to sleep for another twelve hours, opened her eyes and rushed over to check on Fujimaru Ritsuka's condition, disregarding her own rest time.

Although Olga Marie said yesterday that Akuta Hiyori of Group A had awakened, then Fujimaru Ritsuka could retire to the sidelines and there was no need for such a mediocre person as her to continue fighting.

Upon hearing that Fujimaru Ritsuka was in trouble, Olga Marie rushed to the scene immediately, expressing her concern.

"Have you figured anything out?" Olga Marie couldn't help but urge. Although on the surface she was the one who should be the calmest, in reality she was the one most worried about Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Even Mash and Doctor Roman stood quietly to the side, waiting for Mikaela to find a solution.

As a result, even the most composed Olga Marie seemed to lose her composure at this moment.

"Wait a moment." Mikaela casually crushed a card, transforming into a girl dressed in a gorgeous kimono with blood-red eyes.

Hell Girl - Enma Ai.

As the Hell Girl, she can clearly sense abnormalities in the souls of others.

This can be considered part of the world's rules. After all, Hell Girl, in a sense, is someone who helps Hell work, and theoretically, she is also someone with a 'divine office'.

In every world, hell holds an extremely high position.
