A useless person

Anastasia snorted coldly; she had no power and could only endure these words.

"You can't talk like that. No matter what, Brother Bai is our comrade-in-arms, and this person is, after all..."

"Of course, this is Mr. Bai Mo's Servant, but to be blunt, his situation seems to be more complicated than it appears. Master, you should know this, I've already figured it out in my negotiations with my subordinates."

Upon hearing this, Ritsuka immediately stopped speaking, and Anastasia also sensed that something was amiss.

"Magecraft, what do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean? I'll be frank. Let's leave the past aside for now. Our enemy here is the regent currently in the Kremlin."

As far as I know, she was a queen named Anastasia.

Zhang Jue wore the kind smile typical of an old man, but a cold glint flashed deep in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Anastasia immediately frowned. Her mind was racing, and she quickly began to calculate. Although it sounded absurd, if that were the case, it wouldn't be hard to explain why Vi wasn't by her side.

"Is this even possible? Summoning the same Servant at the same time..."

"Yes, Servant can have different facets. Theoretically, it is indeed possible to summon different facets at the same time, just like Miss Artoria."

Furthermore, Anastasia previously launched a surprise attack on Chaldea, and... that's why Mr. Bai Mo made you spirit form and not appear before them, right?"

Ritsuka explained from the side that Bai Mo was not surprised by this, after all, he had seen Anna and Gorgon in Uruk.

Although Anastasia herself probably didn't have enough experience to split into two different Spirit Origin, it was theoretically possible.

Hearing this, Anastasia felt a chill run down her spine, then she sneered. She stood up, looked at Ritsuka and Zhang Jue, and asked in an icy tone:

"I see, hehe, I understand now. So that's why they say the most suitable Servant. Perfect, even Wei isn't around, which saves you trouble."

Seeing Anastasia's reaction, Ritsuka was slightly taken aback and said:

"No, no, no, what's going on? What happened before was undoubtedly the work of that Lostbelt princess, and had nothing to do with Miss Anna."

"Stop pretending. Do you think I don't know what a member of the royal family doing is in the resistance?"

Anastasia's voice was somewhat hysterical. Ritsuka wanted to say something, but Zhang Jue pressed down on her shoulder. The latter slowly opened his mouth, his tone very calm, as if discussing dinner.

"Master, although it is cruel, war is not child's play. Besides, this Caster is of absolutely no help in combat. But even if she weren't the Regent, she would still be Anastasia."

If you want to boost morale, there's no better way than raising a flag before battle... The people won't care if this is the regent or not; they just need to know that she is Anastasia.

As the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Jue understood perfectly how to boost morale in this kind of war. As for the one in the Kremlin? Just say she was a stand-in.

Upon hearing this, Anastasia's heart almost froze. In a way, this was something that truly depended on her.

Recalling Bai Mo's words, she clenched her fists tightly.

"I don't need your combat strength at all; in fact, in some ways you're better than most powerful Servant."

Heh, that's absolutely right. Without Wei, and with the opponent having three Command Spell, they have absolutely no power to resist. Thinking this, she glared at Bai Mo beside her, only to see him raise his head and sigh deeply.

"I'm sorry, but that won't happen. After all, she came here because of me, and I won't allow it. Besides, we probably don't need the resistance's participation here."

Hearing Bai Mo's words, everyone was stunned. Zhang Jue, standing to the side, raised an eyebrow and said:

"Are you joking? Would you really say something like that to protect this woman? Is this what they call love at first sight?"

My friend, don't let women bewitch you! Youth is the perfect time to do great things!

Bai Mo simply shook his head at Zhang Jue's words, then casually picked up a wooden fork. The fork bent slightly in his hand, emitting a strong light.

With a flick of Bai Mo's finger, the fork flew out of the window, and in the distance, it exploded with a deafening roar, like a missile exploding.

"Ritsuka, although this may sound abrupt, the battle that follows is not for you to participate in."

As Bai Mo slowly explained the situation of this world, everyone's gaze became uneasy, some even trembling. Ritsuka looked at the sandwiches in the basket, swallowed hard, and asked:

"So, this sandwich isn't Magecraft..."

"I created it by directly rearranging atoms."

Bai Mo uttered words in a calm tone that nearly caused Ritsuka's heart and lungs to stop.

"Then, Brother Bai, you have 760,000 units of strength, while Ivan the Terrible in the Thundercloud Mountain Range has a whopping 930,000 units of strength. Theoretically, he could overturn the entire Moscow with a single punch without even breaking a sweat?"

"Right."

Ritsuka felt her blood rush to her brain, and her hands and feet felt numb. She continued to ask:

"Then, theoretically speaking, almost every Lostbelt has someone of this caliber?"

"Right."

Her face turned deathly pale at a visible speed; her lips moved, but she couldn't utter a single syllable.

Zhang Jue, standing to the side, froze for the first time with his wise and benevolent smile. He slowly turned his head and looked out the window in the direction where the fork had exploded and disappeared, letting out a dry, almost sighing sound.

Ritsuka and Zhang Jue left with heavy hearts, and she needed to rethink her next move. At this moment, she also understood why Bai Mo hadn't explained things clearly to the Chaldea members.

If everyone knew this directly, they would probably lose morale and even give up on themselves. After all, in their eyes, Ivan the Terrible was just a monster with a lot of electric current.

But now Bai Mo has told her what Magnetic Field Power is, and that Ivan the Terrible is a super monster so powerful it's unreasonable.

Only Bai Mo and Anastasia remained in the room. Anastasia's expression remained cold and stern. Although she knew she wouldn't be sacrificed for the time being, what did this current situation mean to her?

Below her Yaga, who wished she could skin her alive; around her were Chaldea members who loathed that face; and she herself had no power whatsoever.

A familiar feeling welled up inside me—a feeling that, although I am not important, I am an eyesore in the eyes of others.

"They say it's unnecessary, but in the end, those armed soldiers will still come in handy, won't they? In the end, they'll still use me as a sacrifice, won't they? After all, the Counter Force brought me here, and that's all they can do."

"So, Master, how long do you intend to keep me here?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo simply looked towards Yaga Moscow in the distance, then said to Anastasia:

"That city must be pretty much the same as the one you lived in before, right?"

"I think so, why are you bringing this up?"

Bai Mo sighed softly and said to Anastasia, "I never expected much from the Servant's combat power. As for those weapons, they probably wouldn't even scratch the Terrible Emperor."

Originally, we intended to use you as intelligence, but it seems you won't cooperate, and this place is indeed unsuitable for you, neither with Yaga nor with Chaldea. So...

You are free, Anastasia.
