Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

Hearing the noise, Fujimaru Ritsuka turned around subconsciously and saw Gudafu's figure. A hint of surprise flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his composure.

It was time for a classic night talk. She was very familiar with it, but this time her position was completely opposite to the past.

At this time, Gudafu's face was full of disbelief.

He looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka in disbelief, or more precisely, at the device that the other party placed next to his ear. If he was not mistaken, it was clearly-

"Miss Gudako...?!"

"Sigh--"

Since the matter at hand was not over yet, Fujimaru Ritsuka put his index finger to his mouth, asking him to wait, and then continued to say to the other end of the phone:

"Anyway, as long as you can arrive tomorrow morning, it will be fine."

"Well, thank you, Xiaoguang."

After hanging up the phone and putting the phone away again, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled at Gudafu:

"Are you still not sleeping so late?"

"I was planning to sleep, but I found that Miss Gudako didn't go back to the room, so..."

Gudafu briefly explained why he was here.

Then, he hesitated, not knowing whether to ask about the scene he just saw.

But before he could speak, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said:

"That's great. Actually, I wanted to talk to you last night, but I fell asleep first, ahaha."

"So Fujimaru-kun, do you have time now?"

Gudafu was slightly startled, then smiled and nodded:

"...Of course."

"In fact, I have always wanted to find an opportunity to have a good exchange with Miss Gudako."

"That's great!"

So the two returned to the house and sat down at the dining table again. Then, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and asked:

"In fact, I really want to know about the situation in Chaldea. Can you please introduce it to me in detail, Fujimaru-kun?"

"Chaldea?"

Gudafu pondered for a moment, organizing the language in his mind, and slowly introduced:

"Chaldea, the full name is Phoenix Chaldea, the Human Rights Continuation Guarantee Agency..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka listened carefully to Gudafu's introduction. What she really wanted to know was the difference between the two different worlds of Chaldea.

In order to protect human principles, there are five most critical facilities in Chaldea:

1. Phenomenon Recording Computer Familiar · Laplace;

2. Pseudo-Earth Environment Model · Chaldeas;

3. Guardian Heroic Spirit Summoning System · Destiny;

4. Near Future Observation Lens · Sheba;

5. Spirit Calculation Device · Trismegistus.

Of course, this is only the current situation.

When the alien god descends in the future and the Lostbelt sprouts, there will be the [Imaginary Number Observation Machine · Plane Moon] brought by Sion of the Atlas Academy, but this is also a later story.

And now, among the above five facilities, for her and Gudafu, the most important ones are the Guardian Heroic Spirit Summoning System · Destiny and the Spirit Calculation Device · Trismegistus.

The latter is a device for transferring spirit particles; while the former is a system for summoning servants, which guarantees their combat power.

‘Heroic Spirits are higher spiritual phenomena, and the Seat of Heroic Spirits exists in the dimension above this dimension. They are beings beyond time. For Chaldea's human security method, they are the most suitable assistants. After all, as long as the contract is concluded, (they) can appear in any era;'

This is the meaning of [Guardian Heroic Spirit Summoning System·Destiny].

——It should have been like this.

In Gudafu's narration, Fujimaru Ritsuka learned that in Chaldea where he was, the Guardian Heroic Spirit Summoning System·Destiny has always been in a nearly abandoned state and has not been truly used so far.

Asked the reason, Gudafu explained:

"Although it was originally planned, according to the doctor and Da Vinci, the experiment of summoning servants has never been very successful."

"And, because of Professor Leif... Chaldea's members suffered heavy losses and the facilities were also damaged to varying degrees, so after the official start of repairing the singularity, there was no time to conduct experiments on summoning servants."

"I see..."

After listening to Gudafu's explanation of the ins and outs, Fujimaru Ritsuka finally had a general understanding of the current situation of Chaldea in this world.

I have to say that the reason given by Gudafu does sound reasonable, but——

Their bond with the servants is not comparable to the simple servant summoning experiment before!

Even if we don’t consider the problem of Oufei for the time being, at least the servants who had fought side by side with them in the singularity should not be particularly difficult to summon them out, right?

However, she suddenly recalled that her situation was actually similar to Gudafu’s.

But the difference between the two sides is that because she wanted to draw cards very strongly, Dr. Roman and Da Vinci were also more indulgent to her, so they let her summon the servant with the mentality of "it’s okay to try", and thus opened the door to a new world.

"Okay, I know."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded in understanding, and had a rough idea in his mind.

After understanding this question, she smiled at Gudafu:

"My question is just like this for the time being. So what about you, Fujimaru-kun, do you have anything to ask?"

"I..."

Gudafu hesitated.

Originally, he wanted to ask about the 'Lingji Shadow' that the other party mentioned that day, but now he was very curious about the situation just now, and he didn't know what to choose for a while.

As if seeing his thoughts, Fujimaru Ritsuka said with a smile:

"Why are you so entangled? I never said it was limited to one question."

"Anyway, as long as I can answer, I will try my best to answer."

"Really?"

Hearing this, Gudafu showed a surprised smile, finally relaxed and couldn't help but ask:

"Miss Gudazi, what exactly is the 'Lingji Shadow' you mentioned in the battle before?"

Gudafu has been thinking about this issue for the past two days. Although he knows nothing about it, he inexplicably feels that this is a very important thing to him.

What's more, Fujimaru Ritsuka's disbelief that he didn't know about the 'Shadow of Spirit Base' also made him a little bit unhappy.

"This..."

Hearing Gudafu's question, Fujimaru Ritsuka showed an 'unsurprising' smile and said:

"To put it simply, it is a rather special summoning technique, but it doesn't mean much to you now."

"For me now..."

Gudafu murmured these words, always feeling that the other party's words had a special meaning.

"but,"

At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka changed the topic and said with a smile:

"Although it is of no use to you now, if you are interested, I can teach you."

"Of course not now."

"You can also go back and think about it carefully. In short, you can come to me at any time before completely repairing this singularity."

"...Yes, I will think about it carefully."

Gudav nodded solemnly.

Although it was still a bit foggy, he could feel that this so-called 'Lingji Shadow' was by no means as simple as Miss Gudazi said. It was just that there was something deeper that the other party did not explain clearly for some reason.

Shadow of the Spiritual Base...

Keeping what Fujimaru Ritsuka said just now in mind, and then thinking of the scene he just saw, Gudafu said hesitantly:

"Speaking of which, Miss Gudazi, what you just held in your hand...

"Is it a cell phone?"

Come on!
