Fujimaru Tachibana: "Magical beasts? Are they like the monsters in fantasy games?"
Da Vinci fiddled with the equipment she had pulled out. "You could understand them that way! They're both creatures that wouldn't naturally exist in modern society, and generally only emerge in environments with exceptionally high concentrations of magical energy."
"But obviously, that isn't possible in this Singularity. While the magical energy concentration in the air is considerably higher than in modern society, it hasn't reached the level necessary for magical beasts to be born."
"Generally speaking, only environments like the Age of Gods, with their extraordinarily high magical energy concentrations, can give rise to magical beasts. They're something similar to Phantasmal Species."
"Of course, with certain methods, such as alchemy, artificial magical beasts can still be created as long as enough resources are poured into it."
Mash: "So those magical beasts were created?"
Da Vinci: "Well, with only the magical energy concentration in this Singularity's air, if magical beasts exist here, then that's most likely the case." After a pause, she added, "Of course, there's another possibility. The odds are low, but something as absurd as a Singularity turning into Honkai Land and then back into a Singularity has already happened, so a few more absurd things wouldn't be strange."
Fujimaru Tachibana: "Uh, that sounds pretty extreme. What kind of possibility is that?"
Da Vinci had already finished adjusting the device in her hands, aiming its speaker toward the battle. "Those magical beasts came from somewhere outside this Singularity."
Fujimaru Tachibana froze. "Outside the Singularity..."
Da Vinci: "From a Singularity's perspective, that would be somewhere beyond the world."
As she said that, sounds of fighting and beasts roaring unexpectedly came from the device—the sounds from the battlefield over there. This thing was actually a remote listening device, which
