Ritsuka Becomes a Mother / Wine Is Blood

Last night, she not only dreamed of the battle between Mephistopheles and Typhon, but also of the events that followed, including Mephistopheles and the Moon Goddess being trapped. She dreamed of everything in great detail!

Chapter 180 Ritsuka Becomes a Mother

Recalling the events of her dream last night, and even being able to experience that special feeling from a first-person perspective, made Olga Marie blush with embarrassment.

However, this dream unfolds from a male perspective, and what she can perceive is only what Mephistopheles perceives.

This made Olga Marie both slightly excited and curious.

"So, what exactly are the feelings of the women in this story?" she pondered silently, recalling the way she had seen Artemis. A sense of anticipation began to rise within her. "She seems so comfortable. I was so captivated and excited when I saw Artemis. So, what exactly does it feel like?"

Thinking of this, she unconsciously squeezed her legs together slightly, vaguely feeling an itch down below, and even wanting to touch it.

At that moment, a figure even popped into her mind.

"If... if Mephistopheles could touch me, it would feel so good..."

As Olga Marie thought about it, she unconsciously put more effort into her legs, then suddenly woke up with a start, her eyes wide open.

"Ah, what am I thinking?! What was I thinking just now?!" She felt her mind was in a mess, and her heart was pounding wildly. Even though she was a ghost, as a spiritual being, she still had everything she was supposed to have!

So at this moment, she even felt her body getting hot, and the area behind her ears felt like it was burning.

"Wait a minute, why did I think of him?! Although Mephistopheles is indeed quite handsome and capable, and although he can be a bit cunning at times, he's still a good person... He's been very kind to me and helped me a lot, but doesn't he have any flaws?!"

"That's right, he has many flaws! Let me think... he doesn't like going to school! No, that's not right, didn't he get into Westminster School? Although it's a regular school, it's still a top-tier school... This flaw doesn't seem right..."

"Yes, that's right. He looks down on the Clock Tower and despises Magecraft! That's prejudice! Yes, that's prejudice, which shows he has a problem, and that kind of flaw can be fatal!"

Olga Marie muttered to herself, but the more she spoke, the less confident she became.

"It's fatal... fatal..."

Just then, there was a knock at the door. Olga Marie jumped out of bed and stammered, "Who... who is it?!"

"Chief, it's me." Mash Kyrielight's voice came from outside the door, which made Olga Marie breathe a slight sigh of relief. She carefully checked her clothes for any problems, straightened out any wrinkles, and then returned to her usual appearance. "Come in."

Mash Kyrielight pushed open the door and walked in, looking at Olga Marie with some confusion. "Director, why is your face so red?"

"Red? Still red?!" Olga Marie exclaimed in surprise, then quickly realized, "No, no, it's probably just too hot."

Mash Kyrielight became even more suspicious, but didn't think too much about it, simply saying, "We're leaving for the next Singularity tomorrow. Dr. Roman said it would be best to have a meeting today; he has some things to discuss. He's already gone to see Senior Mephistopheles."

"Mephistopheles?! Why bring him up?!" Olga Marie exclaimed in surprise, leaving Mash Kyrielight even more confused. "What's wrong with Mephistopheles- senpai?"

Olga Marie froze, her eyes darting left and right, before she said in a relatively calm tone, "Ahem, it's nothing. I just suddenly wanted to talk to him about something. That's fine, I'll talk to him after the meeting."

"Really? Then I'll be going now, Director. I still need to talk to my senior about this."

"Okay, go ahead."

After Mash Kyrielight left, Olga Marie finally breathed a sigh of relief, then collapsed onto the bed, burying her face in the blankets and letting out a wail. Inwardly, she wailed, "It's all over! Mash Kyrielight definitely thinks I'm crazy! It's all your fault, Mephistopheles!"

Inside Ritsuka Fujimaru's room, Mash Kyrielight said to her, "Senpai, this is the meeting arranged by Dr. Roman. You can continue to rest for a while and go over in half an hour."

"Okay, I understand." Ritsuka Fujimaru nodded, then gently patted the little girl's head beside her.

Jack the Ripper, the legendary and terrifying serial killer, clung to her like a clingy puppy, refusing to let go.

Ritsuka Fujimaru was somewhat helpless about this.

Seeing Jack the Ripper like this, Mash Kyrielight smiled and gently patted his head, which made the Jack the Ripper look happy.

"Senior, I think she probably sees you as her mother."

"Mother?!" Ritsuka Fujimaru's eyes widened slightly. "I've never been married, and I've never had a boyfriend!"

"But that doesn't stop you from having the qualities to be a mother. You have everything you need, and I think this kind of affectionate behavior is good for both you and Jack the Ripper."

"Benefit?"

"It was Mephistopheles who told you to treat Jack the Ripper like a mother these days," Mash Kyrielight said with a smile.

Looking at the little girl who was still clinging to her, Ritsuka Fujimaru hesitated for a moment before asking, "Why do you say that?"

"Because according to Mephistopheles, Loli Jack the Ripper, well, the loli was added by Mr. Mephistopheles. He said that there might be multiple Jack the Ripper, such as a very old middle-aged man, etc. The current Jack the Ripper is a vengeful spirit created by his longing for his mother."

"If you want her to grow better and become stronger, but without being too obsessive, the best way is to provide her with more maternal love."

Mash Kyrielight smiled slightly at Ritsuka Fujimaru as she finished speaking, "And as a senior who is the Master, she is the most suitable candidate, since Master and Servants can often understand each other."

Ritsuka Fujimaru opened her mouth, unsure how to refute, and could only say, "Well, I don't have any experience as a mother either!"

"Senior Mephistopheles said that love is all that matters. As long as you love her, and love her without expecting anything in return, you can take her place as her mother. I think Senior Mephistopheles makes a lot of sense, so, Senior, please do your best!"

Seeing Mash Kyrielight almost burst out laughing as she said those words, and then looking at Jack the Ripper who still refused to let go, Ritsuka Fujimaru couldn't help but roll her eyes. She never expected that just one Servant summon would get her into such a mess!

"Yes, Senior Mephistopheles also said that if things get really difficult, he can teach you some special True Magic to guide the superior feminine power into yourself, allowing you to interact with maternal power and thus directly acquire the identity of a mother in a mystical sense."

Ritsuka Fujimaru blinked, trying hard to understand the meaning of the sentence, then exclaimed in surprise, "It can be like that?!"

"Yes, what Senior Mephistopheles said is possible. He also said that he is quite familiar with Hera, the Greece mother goddess, and that Hera could help bestow maternal power upon you."

Hearing this, Ritsuka Fujimaru was certain that she couldn't refuse the fact that she had become Jack the Ripper's mother. Even if she wanted to resist, no one would allow it. Mephistopheles wouldn't allow it, and even her own Servant, Mash Kyrielight, was just watching the show!

Ritsuka Fujimaru couldn't help but raise her head, staring at the ceiling, lamenting that she didn't even know what a man tasted like, yet she had unexpectedly become a mother!

It's so tragic!

Ritsuka Fujimaru felt that she needed something else to balance the imbalance in her heart!

"Oh, right, I went to see the director earlier, and he seemed a bit strange today..." Mash Kyrielight suddenly said at this moment.

Ritsuka Fujimaru immediately perked up. "Tell me in detail!"

"When I went in, the director's face was flushed, like she had a fever. But isn't the director a ghost now? Her magic power is fully replenished, so she wouldn't have a fever. She said she was hot, but when I went in, the room temperature was perfectly comfortable. That can't be!"

"You're right, this is indeed strange, and there's definitely some secret involved!" Ritsuka Fujimaru's eyes lit up, immediately sensing something amiss. "Does the director have any other reactions?"

"Others? Yes, I mentioned Senior Mephistopheles, and the director reacted very strongly, asking me why I brought him up. But he immediately changed his mind, saying he had something to discuss with Senior Mephistopheles and would talk to him after the meeting."

Mash Kyrielight finished speaking, still looking puzzled. Ritsuka Fujimaru narrowed her eyes, a slight smile playing on her lips, and gently touched her cheek. "So that's how it is?"

Mash Kyrielight immediately asked, "What does it look like? Did you discover something, senpai?"

"Yes, I have indeed discovered some, but it's just a guess. I'm not sure yet. I'll tell you when I'm sure," Ritsuka Fujimaru said with a grin.

"I understand, but is this something really important? If it is, then we should definitely prepare in advance, right? We might even need to discuss it with Romani and the others."

Seeing how dutiful Mash Kyrielight, Ritsuka Fujimaru quickly shook her head. "Don't tell anyone yet! This matter is both big and small. It's definitely a big deal for the director, and for Mephistopheles... it should be a big deal too."

"For Chaldea... it seems to be a big deal, but it's not to the point where everyone needs to discuss it. There's not much for us to interfere with."

"Let me first confirm if things are as I think. If they are, then we can discuss it with someone else!"

Seeing Ritsuka Fujimaru's response, Mash Kyrielight stopped asking and left for another location. Ritsuka Fujimaru chuckled, "So, the director is actually falling for Mephistopheles?"

Thinking of this, she nodded slightly. "That's right. The director has always been busy with work. No one can disobey her here. It's no problem to say that she is above everyone else. There is no one who can tear her heart apart."

"As a result, Mephistopheles's appearance shattered these established patterns. Mephistopheles was handsome, incredibly strong, and bursting with confidence. He had such close relationships with the ancient gods. He had no habit of putting others in a superior position, but he also never belittled others. He treated everyone equally. Such a person's attraction to others is probably fatal."

"Let me think, I seem to recall reading about this in some psychology books before. This kind of person is kind to others spontaneously, without expecting anything in return. Even if others don't appreciate it, they won't be hurt at all, and their emotions remain incredibly stable because they are confident!"

"Oh, right, no wonder he told me to treat Jack the Ripper well, but not to expect anything in return. Yes, that was my oversight!"

"Jack the Ripper himself is a collection of vengeful spirits, and if you have to say something, his mental state is very poor, which is a very serious mental illness."

"If I followed the attitude of some parents, who believe that being good to a child means expecting them to correct all their bad habits, and that not being good to a child if they don't, it might actually worsen Jack the Ripper's mental problems!"

Thinking of this, Ritsuka Fujimaru slowly exhaled, gently patted the little girl's head beside her, and said softly, "Want to go get something good to eat?"

The assassin who had tried to kill her last time nodded happily, and the smile on his face made Ritsuka Fujimaru feel that having a daughter was wonderful.

"Phew, calm down, calm down. Although she's cute and a loli, she's still a Servant, so we need to be careful!"

Ritsuka Fujimaru thought to herself, then reached out and grabbed Jack the Ripper's small hand, leading her outside.

She's starting to consider whether she should summon a Servant again before setting off, even though she knows it's a Servant. The thought of sending such a little girl to the battlefield still makes her very uncomfortable.

"What are you thinking about? You look so hesitant." A voice suddenly came from behind. Ritsuka Fujimaru looked up and saw that it was Mephistopheles.

Upon meeting Mephistopheles, Ritsuka Fujimaru revealed her thoughts.

"Oh, so that's what you're worried about." Mephistopheles nodded, then glanced at Jack the Ripper, this Servant who wasn't interested in men and preferred to stick with women.

"Actually, I don't think you need to worry too much about this. Instead, just treat her normally. She can use her own strength to save others, which is a good thing. You can praise her."

"If she wants to use her power to harm innocent people, such as killing innocent women like she did in the past, even if it is caused by her inner impulse, you should criticize her. And now that you are her Master, you can also be her mother. You can guide her and help her gradually emerge from the trauma of being abandoned."

Mephistopheles smiled and said, "If it succeeds, perhaps even Jack the Ripper on the Throne of Heroes will be changed, or even elevated in the future!"

Chapter 181 Wine is Blood

"This Singularity occurs during the American Revolutionary War in 1783. The original historical timeline should have been one of United States victory and independence, a pivotal moment in human history!"

At the meeting, Romani addressed the crowd.

Mephistopheles nodded. If there was anything of paramount importance in human history, he would cite the United States Declaration of Human Rights; nothing could compare.

The United States Revolutionary War was closely related to the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen.

Romani continued, "This time, thanks to the intelligence we gained last time, Sheba has also made some corrections..." He glanced at Mephistopheles after saying this, "The special True Magic formula has brought about new changes, allowing us to achieve some observations that were impossible in the past."

"So, what did you discover?" Olga Marie asked. Since Romani had proposed this meeting, it was naturally Romani who had discovered something.

Romani immediately said, "This time, it should be a multi-faction battle. At least according to the intelligence obtained from Sheba's observations, there are three factions involved. I can't confirm whether there are other forces that haven't been exposed yet, after all, this is the first official observation after Sheba's changes!"

Mephistopheles asked, "Are you worried that too many forces, too much mixing, could lead to major unforeseen events during the operation?"

"Yes, judging from the way the various factions are fighting each other, it's clear that they all have Servants..." Romani said, frowning deeply. "I wonder which of Goetia's arrangements is correct."

"It's alright, it's not a big problem. We can just take out all the Servants when the time comes," Mephistopheles said nonchalantly. "We can split up. Ritsuka and the others can take out one faction, and I'll take out another. If we don't find the Holy Grail, we'll take out the third one."

"What if we still can't find the Holy Grail?"

Mephistopheles pondered for a moment, "Then I'll dismantle the Singularity and retrieve the Holy Grail. After all, the existence of the Holy Grail is related to the correction of the Singularity, so as long as the Singularity exists, the Holy Grail will definitely exist."

Seeing how easily Mephistopheles spoke, Romani sighed, "Well, let's deal with those forces first. Only when there's absolutely no other way should we dismantle the Singularity."

He believed that Mephistopheles was not joking. If they really couldn't find where the Holy Grail was hidden, Mephistopheles would definitely destroy the Singularity to dig out the Holy Grail.

So what if it's the entire American continent? Mephistopheles is wielding Durandal, a sword said to be capable of tearing planets apart!

"I'll send you the rest of the intelligence. Take a look. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, and I'll answer them on the spot," Romani added.

Subsequently, a document was delivered to the group of people.

Mephistopheles glanced at the document, not particularly concerned with its contents; he was more interested in other things.

For example, the most crucial thing is which Servants you can encounter in this Singularity. If you can encounter some Servants from the mythological era, you can have a good exchange with them, take over their Noble Phantasm, and disassemble them to see what kind of structure they are.

So, out of boredom, Mephistopheles waited silently as Olga Marie asked Romani some questions. After more than half an hour, when the meeting ended, he let out a cheer and immediately stood up from his seat.

Romani struggled to suppress the urge to facepalm, then glanced cautiously at Olga Marie. Given Mephistopheles's behavior, Olga Marie would definitely not be happy.

As a result, he saw Olga Marie staring blankly, seemingly in a daze.

"What's going on?" Romani wondered, but didn't dwell on it. Instead, he looked at Mash Kyrielight and said, "Mash Kyrielight, come over for a physical exam in a bit!"

"Okay, doctor."

"You've already participated in several Singularity missions. Although they've all been relatively easy, you still need to have a check-up. If there are any problems, you might need to rest and adjust."

"Don't worry, doctor, there's definitely nothing wrong with my body!" Mash Kyrielight said with a smile, but Romani shook his head. "I only trust the results of the tests."

He then left the conference room.

Mephistopheles watched this scene, raised an eyebrow, and walked out as well.

Ritsuka Fujimaru watched this scene, then glanced at Olga Marie was standing there in a daze, and chuckled inwardly before walking out as well.

Upon reaching the door, Mash Kyrielight asked, "Senpai, did you notice anything?"

"Of course I noticed. I'm pretty sure my guess was right." Ritsuka Fujimaru smiled and whispered in Mash Kyrielight's ear, "I suspect the director has fallen for Mephistopheles."

"What?!" Mash Kyrielight exclaimed in surprise, causing Ritsuka Fujimaru to quickly cover her mouth and whisper, "Don't be so loud, and don't tell anyone!"

"Oh, oh, okay!" Mash Kyrielight nodded quickly, then asked in a low voice, "Weren't we supposed to discuss this with others?"

"Let's observe first and see if the director needs help. If he does, then we can discuss it further. For now, let's hold off!"

Then she asked, "By the way, how are you feeling?"
