Unable to Resist, Only Able to Accept / Hidden Agendas and Sightseeing

Although she was indeed very tired, Fujimaru Ritsuka, who had no intention of stopping to rest, blinked and made a questioning sound.

"Literally."

Gwen narrowed his eyes, looking at Fujimaru Ritsuka, whose expression seemed somewhat unnatural—

Your soul is already very tired—

Before exploring the Atlantic Lostbelt, let's take a good rest first..."

"Can..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka wanted to say something, but her heavy double eyelids drooped uncontrollably, and she quickly fell into a deep sleep.

"What did you do to your senior...?"

Although she overheard their conversation, Mash still asked anxiously when she saw Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly collapse.

"As you can see, help her relax her tense mind."

Ignoring the hostile stares around them, Gwen helped Fujimaru Ritsuka sit down on a chair and beckoned Mash to come over and keep an eye on her, which made the little eggplant less wary.

Gwyn handed the sleeping Fujimaru Ritsuka Gwen Mash, then looked at Little Da Vinci to the side—

"Little Da Vinci over there, could you provide me with some information?"

"Please speak, Gwen."

Little Da Vinci also cooperated very well, nodding immediately.

"Please provide me with information about the Heroic Spirit summoning you used."

Gwen didn't mince words and made a demand that made everyone's expressions change.

Although the main combat force that can be relied upon in Lostbelt is the Pan-Human History summoned by the Counter Force, and Chaldea itself has difficulty replenishing them due to environmental issues, Gwen's request for this kind of information is still a bit too sensitive.

However, after a moment of surprise, Little Da Vinci readily agreed.

"No problem, I'll hand it over to you right away."

With that, Little Da Vinci turned to gather his documents, leaving Gordolf, who had expected the Little Da Vinci to consult his opinion as the director, feeling ignored once again.

Even knowing the situation was urgent, he still retained some undesirable habits from years of practice until the very last moment.

Fortunately, everyone was already familiar with this chubby director and knew how to appease him.

When Fujimaru Ritsuka, awoke from her dream, she saw Gwyn listening to Little Da Vinci explain Gwen, and Gordolf standing there, furious but unable to speak out.

Chapter 586 Unable to Resist, Only to Accept

"Hey, you're awake. Congratulations on becoming a handsome young man."

Upon seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka awaken, Gwen immediately greeted her with a smile.

"This is not funny at all..."

Feeling completely relaxed, as if she hadn't slept so comfortably since arriving at Chaldea, Fujimaru Ritsuka stretched her shoulders and got off the reclined chair.

However, before Fujimaru Ritsuka forward, she had to somewhat clumsily catch what Gwen threw at her.

"Milk, coffee, and green tea—do you have a favorite?"

"Thanks..."

Looking at the familiar Japanese on the packaging, even though it wasn't a brand or packaging she was familiar with, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but feel a sense of déjà vu—

It turns out I've become so far removed from these ordinary things in life...

"Senior..."

Mash approached Fujimaru Ritsuka, her expression questioning.

In their past experiences, they have also contracted diseases from eating and drinking.

Although Fujimaru Ritsuka currently possesses extremely high Status Resistance, Gwen is clearly no ordinary person either.

If Fujimaru Ritsuka agrees, Mash will immediately speak up and make it reasonable for Fujimaru Ritsuka not to drink the beverage Gwen gave her.

"Yes, thank you for watching over me all this time, Mash..."

Turning to Mash with a reassuring smile, Fujimaru Ritsuka opened the can of milk in her hand, tilted her head back and took a sip, a warm feeling instantly filling her body.

Although it would be best to share some with Mash right now, Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't want Mash to go on an adventure with her, so she could only keep all the drinks in her own pocket.

"What are Gwen and Da Vinci researching?"

Looking at Gwen and Little Da Vinci who were still discussing something, Fujimaru Ritsuka asked Mash beside her.

Upon hearing this, the usually serious-looking little eggplant suddenly looked somewhat troubled.

However, before Mash could speak, Gwen answered Fujimaru Ritsuka's question—

"Servant Summoning Ritual".

"?"

Upon hearing this familiar term, Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes widened in surprise—

No, although the gap in strength between everyone seems exaggeratedly large, is it really a good idea to just hand over your biggest trump card?

It doesn't matter if there's a big gap in strength, but are you serious about handing over the cards that could turn the game around to the opponent?

"What I need the help of everyone in Chaldea is to summon a... Servant, and a Servant summoning ritual is naturally necessary."

Seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression, Gwen understood her thoughts and explained with a smile.

Whom do you wish to summon?

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded silently, then looked at Gwen curiously, wanting to know which great god Gwen, with his strength, wanted to summon.

Well...

Secret."

Amidst the curious gazes of everyone who overheard the conversation aboard the submarine, Gwen chuckled and kept everyone in suspense—

"Friendly reminder: if the summoning is successful, then everyone in Chaldea should be very happy—"

Happiness—in both the literal and colloquial senses, without any deviation.

"..."

Looking at Gwen's smile, Fujimaru Ritsuka knew she wouldn't get anything out of him, and could only say helplessly—

"Then I wish you success soon and that you will achieve your goal."

"Thank you for your kind words."

Gwen nodded with a gentle smile.

The girl in front of him was one of the "Holy Relic" for his future summoning ritual.

"Should we wait until you finish your research on the ritual before we leave?"

Although she was really Gwen wanted to summon, Fujimaru Ritsuka could only back down and change the subject to the important matter, as Gwen clearly wasn't going to say.

"Although I really didn't want to disturb Gwen's enjoyment..."

At this moment, Holmes, who had not previously interacted much with Gwen, suddenly spoke up—

"Based on the current scan results, all the Spirit Vein of Olympus are under artificial management, and there are even some traces of artificial... no... it should be said that they are divine creation."

In this situation, if you want to summon a Heroic Spirit, you must provide all the magic power yourself.

This will be a considerable burden, so please be prepared.

"It's not a big problem."

Gwen waved his hand—

"As long as it's not a mistake during the summoning, even if a few Primordial Goddess appear, it won't be a problem for me."

"Since you are so confident..."

Upon hearing this, Holmes nodded slightly and said no more.

"Alright, everyone, stop using honorifics all the time. I may be a bit stronger, but I'm not some Golden Gil. There's no need for such formalities. Just call me 'you'."

Before Fujimaru Ritsuka could speak, Gwen brought up the matter of how to address someone, and then began to answer her earlier question—

"As for the summoning ritual, I already understood it. I was just asking Da Vinci about some details."

Now that you're awake, let's set off!

Let's see what humanity looks like under the protection of the gods.

"Good."

Upon hearing Gwen mention Golden Gil, Fujimaru Ritsuka, whose mood eased slightly after recalling her experiences in the Singularity F, nodded.

After discussing with the Chaldea members, Fujimaru Ritsuka finalized her objectives and strategy for this mission.

Explore the realities of the Atlantic Lostbelt, search for the Pan-Human History Servants who previously Olympus, and prepare to conquer the Lostbelt 5.

On this trip, Fujimaru Ritsuka ultimately didn't bring too many people, only Mash and herself to accompany Gwen on their exploration.

With Gwen, such a powerful figure, around, the roles of others become less important.

Rather than going out with me, they'd be better off staying here as a mobile force.

"See you later, Da Vinci. Your Spirit Base Interference Foil is quite good. I look forward to seeing more of your excellent works."

Before leaving, Gwen gave the shrewd merchant a good review, and then left the submarine Storm Bord with Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash.

"To entrust such an important trump card to someone of unknown origin is truly..."

After confirming that Gwen had taken the two away, the fat warden Gordolf, who had been acting somewhat unnaturally, finally let out a long sigh of relief, muttering to himself as if complaining.

"We have no other choice, do we?"

Holmes remained calm.

"We have already witnessed Zeus's power. The fact that the other side was able to protect us and Storm Bord in front of Zeus, and ignore Storm Bord's upgraded defenses to arrive here without triggering any alarms, is enough to demonstrate their strength—"

At least our current strength is insufficient to defeat them.

Unable to resist, we can only accept it.

Moreover, the other party can obtain this item by cooperating with the Hidden Ones.

But then we'd have another enemy to face, and it might be someone as powerful as Zeus.

Chapter 587 Hidden Intentions and Leisure

"Of course I know all that..."

Scratching his head in frustration, Gordolf complained, but then sighed halfway through, swallowing the rest of his words, looking utterly dejected.

"But... sigh..."

"I think we don't need to worry too much about this gentleman for the time being."

Little Da Vinci, who had the most contact with Gwen, broke the somewhat heavy atmosphere caused by Gordolf's sigh—

"If the other party is an enemy, then there is no reason for them to play this childish game with us."

Even if he is an enemy with ulterior motives, we are safe until he achieves his goal.

"Speaking of which, do you have any clues about his identity?"

Upon hearing Little Da Vinci's words, Gordolf sighed again, but managed to pull himself together and asked about the important matter.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Little Da Vinci exchanged a glance with Holmes and shook their heads in unison.

"He concealed his presence very well, so I couldn't detect any useful information."

"However, considering the other party's performance..."

They are either Divine Spirit- level heroic spirits or Divine Spirit themselves.

Based on the other party's own account of their origins, I am more inclined to believe the latter.

Holmes added.

"What?

So, he's a god walking in the mortal world?
