In Chaldea's secret room, Noelle sighed longly and wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand. Her white gloves were dyed dark. Her cyan hair stuck to her forehead, giving people a sense of hard work.
After work, with a faint sense of fatigue between her brows, she finally stopped what she was doing.
The room in front of her was already covered with patterns painted with magic lines.
Here is the secret room of Director Olga Marie.
In the entire Chaldea, only the director himself and a few close associates knew about it.
Beside her is Servant Chiron.
He is a Greek sage with long mature brown hair, wearing white clothes, and giving off a gentle and reliable feeling. Probably, he is the most knowledgeable person in Chaldea now. Although Scathach has also accumulated the wisdom of the devil
, but after all, it was knowledge acquired outside the world. Noelle was skeptical whether she would understand things in today's world.
"This is the last possible place."
Noelle lowered her head and her tone was a little heavy.
If she had a choice, she would never bring anyone here, not even herself.
The living should not disturb the tranquility of the dead, this is her idea. What's more, she is a supporter of Olga Marie, and it can be said that she is very resistant to bringing outsiders into this sacred realm.
Teacher Chiron nodded and said nothing. As keen as he was, he had already seen how sad Noelle was in bringing him here.
Before that, when Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others were exploring the singularity, the two of them were working on this: searching for holy relics.
As mentioned before, when summoning heroic spirits, if there are holy relics, the probability of summoning a specific servant can be greatly increased.
The current summoning of heroic spirits is similar to gambling. Whatever you summon, you use it.
To be honest, Noelle hates this approach. It's too nonsense to leave everything to fate. Chaldea has already anticipated this situation, so naturally, she has prepared the holy relics.
but……
Leif's betrayal was unexpected. As the man who Director Olga Marie placed all her trust in, he certainly knew the location of the holy relic.
Moreover, Noelle still remembers what Leif specifically said at that time: Masters brought the holy relics to the control room...
Obviously, Leif had already thought of this.
Therefore, when the two opened the warehouse where the holy relics were stored, they found that there were also traces of man-made destruction inside. Although they could find a few things with traces of magic power, there were no more things that could serve as holy relics. Of course, there were also
There may be some kind of connection, but neither Chiron nor Noelle know it.
So, we can only place our hope in the last place.
Noelle knew very well that a sacred relic was kept here.
Mr. Munir, the accompanying Chaldean member, swallowed his saliva and asked a little uncertainly: "Is it possible... Deputy Director Noelle, do you want... do you want to enable that?! Director before
Didn’t I strictly say that it must not be used?”
Beside him, Miss Jamyere, who was also a staff member, also had a heavy expression, shook her head and said, "It is too dangerous to use that word. Although it is indeed very strong, at some point in the future, I am afraid that the Association
At once……"
"I can't control that much anymore. If we can't save humanity, what future will we have? I will be responsible for whatever goes wrong. I am the acting director of Chaldea, and all responsibilities are entrusted to me. Just obey me.
.”
Noelle frowned and spoke harshly.
However, anyone can hear the deep concern in these words.
She took all the problems on herself. If something goes wrong, she will definitely be held accountable as the first person responsible. Others, as long as they say that they obeyed the director's arbitrary actions, no matter at the level of rules
On a moral level, I can still feel at ease.
That holy relic was a [friendly donation] from the Magic Association.
At that time, when Chaldea had just detected that human history would disappear in the future, and when it had just begun to decide to implement the designated battle, the Magic Association took the initiative to donate a rare holy relic.
However, although the director accepted it out of sympathy, he strictly ordered everyone not to use it.
If this were a holy relic, even Leif might not be able to convince her to use it.
The simple truth is: Chaldea is the property of the director. It is the property of the Animusfia family. The title designation is also led by the Animusfia family. In the same way, the world will be saved when the time comes.
This achievement will naturally be attributed to them.
If the association is accepted, then Chaldea, an independent research institution, may be interfered with by the association.
"We have provided you with important holy relics!"
"In the early days of your establishment, when you were most short of holy relics, we funded you. We have an obligation to know where our holy relics are being used."
The guys in the association have long coveted Chaldea. When the time comes, they will investigate the use of the holy relics, invade Chaldea's composition bit by bit, and finally steal the entire Chaldea.
Perhaps this idea is a little too old, but Director Olga Marie is convinced that this is the association's conspiracy. Those guys don't care about the survival of mankind, and they certainly don't believe in the survival of mankind. Donating holy relics is just
Just to see, if Chaldea succeeds and gets a share of the pie, if Chaldea fails, Chaldea will be ordered to compensate for the holy relics, and Chaldea will naturally accept Chaldea's research. Even if Chaldea returns the holy relics,
So there is no loss?
What Acting Director Noelle needs to do now is to unseal this holy relic.
But it's a pity that she is not good at celestial magic. To deal with the defense mechanism set up by Director Olga Marie, she has to rely on the strength of everyone.
Especially Miss Jamyere, although her own magic quality can only be said to be above average, her knowledge of magic is very rich and she has dabbled in various magic systems. Coupled with Chiron, a living representative of the constellation,
Breaking this magic is not difficult.
Because they didn’t want to destroy the room, or even the magic circle, Noelle didn’t want to destroy anything that existed before the director was alive. Therefore, they used talisman paper with magic circuits drawn on the outside to guide the defense temporarily.
A special prop that allows the magic power to flow to other places and temporarily disables the defensive array.
"Okay. Let me open it."
Noelle took a deep breath and opened the secret door in Director Olga Marie's room. It was a secret compartment only half the size of a wardrobe. There was only a pedestal inside, with a brown object set off by red silk.
.
It looks like fragments of something.
Those are... fragments of the round table.
Legend has it that the great King Arthur owned a huge round table.
Gathered the top knights of the time.
Using this as a holy relic, you are destined to summon excellent knights. In the words of the association when it was delivered:
"This is equivalent to a special A-level servant lottery ticket. Whatever you summon is good."
Noelle nodded, gritted her teeth, and finally reached out unswervingly to pick up the fragment.
