Chapter 207
@Fran
……Well……

@Matthew
That's the direction.I see...Senior, it seems to be West.

? 1: West...

? 2: Westminster area?

? !
@mordred
Well, it's in the Westminster area.This is the area where the National Assembly Hall is located.

@mordred
Then let us go and beat up the enemy quickly.Ah, yes, one more thing.

@Matthew
what?
@mordred
Let me just say, this time I want to protect Fran, so I can't spare a hand to help.

@mordred
Because she is not a follower.And it's not known how long the cyborgs can last in battle.

@mordred
So, [#I want to protect her]. ...Hey, what a sinful fate.

@Roman doctor
Mordred cannot be counted on for this fight.So you are the only fighting force.Be careful!
? 1: Got it.

? 2: No problem.

? !
@Matthew
yes.Seniors, let's start to act!

@Roman doctor
...didn't expect it to be really near the Congress Hall.The hiding place for the remote control is amazing.Shouldn't it be inside?

@Fran
... um, um...!
@Matthew
Seems pretty close.She said we're so close
@mordred
Come on, come on, big guy is coming!Fran, hide behind me, don't stay too far away from me!
@mordred
Mash, meow!I leave it to you here, beat up the enemy!
@Matthew
Understood.Master, prepare to fight a large enemy, please give instructions!

$01-00-04-10-1-1
@Matthew
The response of large enemies is gone.

@Matthew
It doesn't seem to be a Servant... Is this the Noble Phantasm itself that manipulates other individuals?

@Fran
……Well. ... Mmm, Mmmmm.

@mordred
seems like it.Well, this trouble is finally solved.

@mordred
Well done Fran.You have been a great help to us.

@Fran
...uh, uh, ah...

@Roman doctor
Matthew, Meow, just to be on the safe side, can you send the image of the enemy's wreckage?
@Roman doctor
I will analyze it here.No, to be precise, to seek the advice of Da Vinci.

@Matthew
Understood.

@Matthew
...Doctor, I found something strange.It has never been found on other chaotic mechanical soldiers.

@Matthew
Appears to be the maker's name.It is written in English.

@Matthew
“Charles Babbage, AD.1888“

@Fran
…………Well! ! ?

@mordred
Um.What's the matter, Fran?

@Fran

@Matthew
Good morning, senior.Did you sleep well?
@Matthew
I just saw you going to the rest room alone...

? 1: I didn't sleep much.

? 2: The writer heroes are in that room...

? !
@Matthew
Hey... ah, that's right... That room was taken over by two writers, Heroic Spirits...

@Matthew
This senior must not have had a good rest.Yeah... sorry, I didn't notice that.

@Matthew
If I had known this, I should have let senior sleep on the sofa in the living room for me... right...

? 1: It doesn't matter.

? 2: This is very good.

? !
@Matthew
……senior……

@mordred
Well, both of you are up.I said, did you two see Fran?

@Matthew
You mentioned it like that... ah.Senior, Miss Fran...

? 1: In the next room.

? 2: In the writer's room.

? !
@mordred
...Oh, as long as she doesn't care.I wouldn't go into that room anyway.

@Matthew
Because it's filled with a weird atmosphere, right?Perhaps this is the boldness of writers facing deadlines.

@mordred
I've been writing since I appeared in the world.Although I don't know if Andersen was actually writing it.

@Matthew
I suddenly remembered the word "yin qi" in the Far East...

@jekyll

Good morning everyone.Everyone has already rested.

@jekyll

I have something to say.is that OK.It's about the name you guys found out hours ago.

@Roman doctor
It was Charles Babbage.He was an outstanding British scientist and mathematician active in the nineteenth century.

@jekyll

Well, he was a man of his time.Although I have never met him, I can recall things about him.

@jekyll

He and the original Dr. Victor Frankenstein seem to be confidants.

@Matthew
Sorry, please wait.

@Matthew
Babbage should have died more than ten years ago.

@jekyll

Why.Wait, this is weird.Although he lives a long life, he is in good health and is still active as a scholar.

@Matthew
...?
@Roman doctor
Jekyll, have you misremembered?Are you sure Babbage lived in this era?

@jekyll

certainly.The chronology of the Royal Society that I looked at earlier this year has his name in it.Victor mentioned him too.

@jekyll

How could he be dead like this?His invention was also published in newspapers last year and this year.

@Matthew
Can I confirm this please?That, yes, just read the newspaper.

@Matthew
…His report was indeed published.Charles Babbage.Born in 1791.It's me.

@Roman doctor
There are two possibilities I can think of.The first is that our historical record does not match the facts.

@Roman doctor
The second is that [#deviation] has occurred in the situation.This has happened in previous eras as well.

@Roman doctor
Orleans, Rome, the Sea of ​​the World are all like this, all things are distorted and [#deviations] appear.

@Roman doctor
Not as Heroic Spirits, but due to the abnormal situation, the ancients are still alive
@Roman doctor
The odds are quite high.Even those who died from the mists.

@Roman doctor
Probably something that should have happened in the twentieth century was interspersed in this era.

@Matthew
So... the same with Miss Fran and Mr. Jekyll?

@Roman doctor
Not impossible.Who really belongs to this era and who doesn't.

@Roman doctor
It is extremely difficult to judge this.especially in the absence of existing records
@jekyll

uh, are you talking about me?I'm very concerned, but let's talk about it later.There is an emergency call.

@jekyll

It's a piece of bad news that my intelligence network got.The swordsman also came to listen.

@jekyll

The chaotic mechanical soldiers that had completely stopped functioning before became active again.

@mordred
What, here again?Is there another remote?
@Matthew
...this is indeed an emergency.We need to shut it down again as soon as possible.

@Roman doctor
yes.We can't allow the enemy to capture any more Servants that manifest from the Mist.

@Roman doctor
Matthew, Meow Meow, I leave it to you.This time the Chaos Mechanical Soldiers must be stopped!
? 1: Got it!

? !
@Matthew
Yes!
@mordred
Having said that, we still have Fran here, so we have to avoid the enemy.

@mordred
According to the previous experience, keep a straight line and ensure that you don't encounter the enemy and go straight to the remote control.

@Fran
........................

@Matthew
You are right.But don't take it lightly, let's go.

@mordred
Certainly not taken lightly.But given Fran's precision last time

@mordred
Eh, have you met an enemy...?This guy shouldn't be the individual of the remote control, right?
@Matthew
... the operation sound of the equipment.Large and numerous!It's the enemy army.Master, please give me an order!

$01-00-04-10-3-1
@Matthew
...defeat the enemy legion.Although it is only speculation, the frequency of their attacks seems to be getting higher and higher.

@mordred
The enemy really appeared...Fran, what's wrong?Are you out?

@Fran
……Well……

@mordred
Is it the east this time... Since just now, you seem to be pointing in too many directions.

@mordred
Let me know if you feel out of shape.Like I said before, just say what you want to say.

@Fran
…………

$01-00-04-10-4-1
@Matthew
...defeat the enemy legion.Although it is only speculation, the frequency of their attacks seems to be getting higher and higher.

@Matthew
Senior, this is

? 1: It's Fran.

@Matthew
...well, I'm afraid so.

? 2: Has the nature of the magic circuit changed?
@Matthew
have no idea.No, if I'm just talking about my own speculation...that's...

? !
@Matthew
I think it's because of Miss Fran.She hesitated at her own act of pointing the way.

@Matthew
Yes...that's it.Miss Fran.

@Fran
…………Well…………

@mordred
........................

$01-00-04-10-5-0
@mordred
...Fran, I have something to tell you.

@Fran
……Well.

@mordred
Even I can see that you don't want to take us to where the remote is.

@Matthew
is that so?Miss Fran

@mordred
Well, she seemed to be hesitant.besides……

@mordred
Do you still have something hidden in your heart that you didn't tell us?Am I right, Fran.

@Fran
...Hmm. ...Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.

@mordred
...you.Haven't I said it many times.You should not have forgotten it.

@mordred
If there is something on your mind, if there is something you want to say, just say it.

? 1: Well, say it.

? 2: Hope you can tell us.

? !
@Fran
……Well……

@Fran
... um, um... um...

@Fran
... umm... ah... ah, ah... umm...

@Fran
... umm...

@mordred
……

@Matthew
…………oh.It turned out to be like this.

? 1: What did she say?
? 2: I don't understand...

? !
@Matthew
She knew the character of Babbage.Even talked to him.

@Matthew
She said that the reason why she was able to track the magic power was to track his breath.

@Matthew
But she said Babbage was not one to do such things.

@mordred
…………

@Matthew
Mr. Jekyll should have said it before.Why didn't I realize this...

@mordred
...I see the situation.Which means you're protecting him, Fran.

@mordred
But this is very contradictory.Babbage is [#wouldn’t do this kind of thing].

@Fran
……Well.

@mordred
That problem is simple. ...Although it makes me very uncomfortable to borrow the words of that stinky brat, there is no way.

@mordred
Fran, calm down and use your imagination.You can do it.

@mordred
Babbage would not do such a thing.But the chaos mechanical soldiers wandered around.

@mordred
In other words, someone forced him to do this.Order him [#to do such a thing].

@Fran
……Well!

@mordred
Good boy.So do you know what to do now?
@Fran
... um, um!

? 1: We have reached an agreement.

? 2: This time I can finally find the remote control.

? !
@Matthew
Yes, senior!

@mordred
It's around the corner.

@Matthew
Well, even I can feel it.Even in this magic fog, the magic power gathered there is quite amazing.

@mordred
look, there.Meow Meow should have heard it too.

@Roman doctor
I also sensed a very strong large-scale enemy reaction.It's already close at hand, is it in this kind of place?
@mordred
I didn't expect it to be in the center of the city.It's near the apartment.

@mordred
Well, it's time to meet the enemy.Is it another remote, or

@Fran
... um, um...!
@babbage

Listen, listen, listen.My name is Steam King.

@babbage

Unable to grasp the possible future, disappearing as an insignificant existence, the illusory king of the fantasy world.

@babbage

I am what you call Magician 'B'.It is also one of the leaders of the "Magic Mist Project" that spreads all over the city.

@babbage

At the same time, it is also one of the heroic spirits born from the magic fog in the capital of the empire.

@Matthew
...Magician 'B'.

@mordred
...It turned out to be one of the leaders of the enemy.Damn, I didn't expect this to happen.

@mordred
Although his initials are indeed B.But I thought too complicated before, so I ignored such a simple fact.

@Matthew
But this... looks the same as the Chaos Mechanical Soldier...?
@mordred
His [#performance:Spec] must be way above those other guys.Although this is just my guess, my hunch is always accurate.

@Matthew
Not human.He really...is a follower...!
@babbage

My name is Steam King.An existence that coexists with a fantasy world after death.

@babbage

Although my fantasy has been sublimated into an inherent barrier, it is not enough, not enough.This is still not enough.

@babbage

see.I am a greedy person.see.I am the one who resists.

@babbage

Yu Steel is for those who want to lead the steam civilization.For thought, for those who want to lead incredible civilizations.

@babbage

At the same time, I am also a person who laments that human beings and civilizations, the world and the future have been put on fire.

@Roman doctor
Ah, so that's it...!In other words, he himself is already an inherent barrier!

@Roman doctor
It's a bit similar to the previous grimoire.The grimoire spreads slumber in order to manifest itself.

@Roman doctor
And he is endlessly spreading his avatars.I'm afraid that's it

@Matthew
Mr. Babbage, if what you say is true, then we can have a good talk.

@Matthew
We, like you, feel that the future must not be burned...

@mordred
Stop talking to him.Scrap iron, listen carefully.

@mordred
Your acquaintance's daughter has come to stop you.

@mordred
Just shut up and listen to her.Wait until you finish listening to those high-spirited speeches.

@Fran
... um, um!

@Fran
...uh...uh, ah...ah, ah...!
@Fran
...Ah, ah, ah...! !

@babbage

oh oh.oh oh.Victor's daughter who will never be forgotten.Are you there?

@babbage

Sad artificial man.O wretched man who cannot obtain the love of the Creator, but longs for it.

@babbage

Woohoo, I can hear your words.Woohoo, I can hear your thoughts.

@babbage

That's right... I was wrong, as scholars, we must complete our mission.

@babbage

We exist for humanity and civilization.That's why I long for it.Longing for a new era of imaginary worlds and dreams.

@babbage

Therefore……

@babbage

Goo...! ?

@babbage

... Goo... Mmm... Quack, Ga... Ga...! ?This is... what... Angel Boda, yes, interference...!
@babbage

Set it up, Holy Grail...!I see, 'M'... even me... also...! !

@babbage

Victor's daughter...!Quick... run away...!
@Fran
……Well! !
@mordred
Enough is enough, Fran.

@mordred
You said everything you needed to say, and he responded to you.Well done.

@mordred
But it still happens.Feelings cannot be conveyed to the other party, and they have to fight each other with swords
@mordred
Stuff like this still happens...

@babbage

Oh oh, oh...! !

@Matthew
……coming!
@Roman doctor
Become speechless and attack! ?This is exactly like the state enforced by the Command Spell

@Roman doctor
If his actions are controlled by the Holy Grail, there is no other way but to defeat him.Matthew, Meow!
@Matthew
Master, please give me instructions.The battle with the large followers is about to begin!
? 1: There is no way!
? 2: Stop him!

? !
@Matthew
Yes, Master! !
$01-00-04-10-5-1
@babbage

...Go to the city, go underground.

@babbage

 …in a deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper bottom than the [#银行:Underground]… there… is where… the core of the 'Magic Mist' project…

@babbage

The source of the... magic fog that fills the city... is the place where I invented... the huge steam engine Angel Poda...

@babbage

The Holy Grail...was set up to be the source of power for...Angel Poda...

@Fran
………………Uh, uh, uh, ah.

@babbage

……Feel sorry.Victor's daughter.

@babbage

Although I can understand your words... but I am no longer a... human with a correct life...

@babbage

I turned into...a obsessive, follower...

@mordred
…………

@babbage

……I……

@babbage

...I, woohoo, dreamed of my own world...but...this is already...

@babbage

…Even if this world can’t fulfill my dream…I don’t want to end [#从人:你]your world…

@mordred
The next destination has been decided.

@Matthew
Well, the underground of the city. Mr. Babbage indeed said so.

@mordred
Take Fran back to Jekyll's apartment first.Then we go to eliminate the final boss.

? 1: Just do it.

? 2: We will definitely get the Holy Grail.

? !
@Matthew
...Yes, senior.
