Chapter 54 - Chapter 54: Four-in-One Spirit Origin

"Let's get this straight first—"

"Although I know such a Servant exists, I can't guarantee that she will obey my orders."

"And compared to me, perhaps Dr. Roman would be more suitable to communicate with that person."

In the corridor of Chaldea, Olga Marie was speaking to Ian beside her, listing precautions one after another.

"Alright, Director."

The man stopped the young girl's "chatter".

"You just need to take me there now. You don't have to worry about the rest, understand? I'll handle it."

"If you keep emphasizing it, you should know what the consequences will be."

"..."

"H-Hateful!" Olga Marie's face instantly blushed.

"I'm just afraid you'll suffer a blow!"

"Rest assured, I won't."

"However, I will indeed need your help later—" Ian held Olga Marie's hand. "Will you help me?"

"..."

"Mn, I will."

"That's good."

Finally managing to quiet Olga Marie down, Ian walked with her through the Chaldea passageways which had become messy after the explosion.

Soon, the two arrived in front of a room resembling a workshop and stopped.

"This is it."

"Da Vinci is right here. The reconstruction of Chaldea this time has become so easy thanks to her."

Before Olga Marie could finish her sentence, she saw Ian directly push the door open.

"Da Vinci, I'm here."

"Eh, doing that will make her dislike you!"

Olga Marie said this while following him in.

But she soon discovered that the Servant Da Vinci, said to have an eccentric temper, was not annoyed by Ian's arrival.

Instead...

She looked somewhat curious?

"Little Director, and..."

Da Vinci's eyes sized up the man before her.

"Secretary, right?"

"Mn." Ian nodded, then spoke straight to the point. "Da Vinci, time waits for no one—we are about to set off for the next Singularity immediately."

"I need more Servants who can help us, and regarding the Spirit Origins needed for this, in Chaldea, I can only rely on you."

Da Vinci was indeed a strange person.

But—

This only referred to her strange behavior in daily life.

In reality, Ian knew she was a backup Chaldea could absolutely trust.

Although at certain times she might show a slouching side like Dr. Roman, most of the time, she was someone absolutely reliable.

That's right.

No need to consider anything at all, just speak directly.

"So unceremonious..."

While Olga Marie was still in surprise, she saw Da Vinci nod and stand up.

"I understand."

"Since that's the case—"

"Come over here."

"Okay."

Resolved...?

Olga Marie felt astonished once again.

But knowing that things had come to this, she didn't say anything more, but just silently followed him into the depths of the workshop.

Upon entering, they saw Da Vinci beginning to fiddle with this and that prop.

While doing so, she didn't forget to communicate with the two behind her.

"Let's get this straight first—"

"Although there is indeed such Spirit Origin technology, it is still very immature right now, so even I can't guarantee what kind of result I can control."

"Even so, does it not matter?"

"Mn, I know—I won't blame you for this, just do your best."

"That will do."

Da Vinci turned her head back and smiled faintly.

In her hand, a blue crystal ball appeared, looking just like a fortune teller's.

"Rest assured, I won't be sloppy."

"Please try your best to recall the moments you met them—"

"Okay."

"First, the first one..."

Da Vinci looked at the content inside the crystal ball and murmured softly.

"Eh, is it the legendary King Arthur, Artoria? It's... the Saber class."

"Next, it's the Caster-class Jeanne [Alter]—"

"Mordred, also of the Saber class, and the Berserker-class Kiyohime..."

The crystal ball glowed with blue light again and again, looking just like a DVD recording.

"Um, can a 'Spirit Origin' for summoning Servants be created just like this?"

Olga Marie couldn't help but become somewhat curious.

"No matter how you look at it, this looks more like a video recording."

"This is a 'video recording'~"

Da Vinci continued touching the surface of the crystal ball, speaking with a smile on her face.

"After all, Servants and such are actually just a certain slice of that hero's life taken out to represent the whole—"

"Don't you think this is actually no different from playing a video backwards?"

"Uh, is it the same?"

Olga Marie suddenly realized something.

"So, you created the 'Spirit Origin' based on this?"

"Correct!"

Da Vinci gently waved her finger.

"How about it? Isn't it amazing? Such seemingly mysterious technology actually uses such a simple principle."

"In-Indeed."

"But speaking of which—"

Olga Marie recalled the names Da Vinci had just called out.

"Why does it feel like these 'Spirit Origins' seem to be all female Servants' 'Spirit Origins'..."

"Eh, seems it really is?"

"Is this important?"

"N-No, nothing... I was just saying it casually..."

The man did not notice the conversation between Da Vinci and Olga Marie.

Because he was attracted by a mysterious feeling.

That was the indescribable "scent" emitted by these Spirit Origins.

The King of Britain—

The terrible Witch—

The rebellious Knight of Britain—

And that resentful Dragon—

It just felt that the past reflected with the help of Da Vinci's Noble Phantasm was not quite what was imagined.

"Wu, it's done."

"Again, the result might deviate greatly from imagination; does it not matter even like this?"

"No need to say this kind of disclaimer anymore."

Ian said somewhat helplessly.

"Da Vinci, you should know our current situation."

"Mn, true."

"Then let's start—"

"Okay."

Gently touching Da Vinci's crystal ball, Ian closed his eyes.

Forget it—

No matter what happens, it's fine.

As long as there is an existence that can help him save this world where Olga Marie survived, it is worth using.

Blue light flashed, and the Spirit Origins created by Da Vinci gradually solidified.

However—

At this moment when four figures should have appeared, magical energy swept through the entire workshop.

"Compared to Artoria, I would be a better choice for you."

A beautiful and arrogant figure gradually appeared.

That was an appearance somewhat similar to Artoria, yet not completely the same.

"Caster Morgan Le Fay, arrived."
