Chapter 159
"This was to be a meeting with the masters of Chaldea... But I don't suppose you will respect that will you." Olga said dryly as Morgan stood beside me subtly putting herself as my equal even as the other Servants of Chaldea dutifully stood behind their master's with the exception of Berserker Tamamo who was holding Fujimaru's arm against her chest.
'Actually, expecting Berserker's to show any form of social grace was a major mistake at the best of times...' I thought dryly as Morgan took my arm into her own chest as she and Tamamo seemed to be marking their territories, shooting glares at one another as they held onto the master that they have claimed.
"We have accepted the call to save humanity... As literally the greatest humans and figures in history we have every right to attend meetings to decide the fate of humanity." Artoria stated with all the Servants in attendance nodding.
"Very well... I will respect that." Olga said swallowing her words as she realized she had zero leverage to control our Servants, not to mention the advice of said Servants could prove invaluable in the future.
"Before we get into the details of the coming Singularity, I and the rest of the surviving members of the A-Team wanted to know whether we could summon our own servants before we get sent into the Singularity." Pepe said breaking the tension and I noticed that the A-Team had already formed a bit of a clique as Pepe led the other three crypters, Kadoc, Ophelia and Hinako.
With Pepe leading the three, I didnt see them overtly trying to endanger humanity's survival though it was possible an 'accident' may happen to me and Fujimaru during the Singularities. But should such a thing happen I will kill them and either way I tried, and I wouldn't feel any guilt over their fates or need to worry about the future Lost Belts.
Da-Vinci coughed to gather our attention to her and with our eyes on the inventor she spoke. "Yes, we could support each of you summoning a Servant, but only one per person. And more unfortunately with the extra masters being sent with our strained systems, each person will only be able to bring two Servant's along at maximum."
I nodded in understanding and didnt bother arguing that the other masters shouldn't bring their Servants as honestly Cu, wasn't going to be too useful in this Singularity with how it was going to be boots on the ground and dealing with a fuck load of dragons.
Thankfully Artoria was tethered to my own mana and not Chaldea's systems similar to Mash was attached to Fujimaru and why is the reason why Fujimaru was immune to extremely toxic substances like the Hassan of Serentiy
"Now as I was saying... The next Singularity has been found, locked onto, and from our preliminary scans seems to be based in what seems to be France during the hundred-year wars." Olga explained and then went into more detail about how our goal was to destroy the entity that was disturbing the native timeline and take the Grail that was powering the Singularity.
Honestly the simplest explanation of a Singularity was a thick air bubble in our stomach being powered by some magic treasure and in order to break it down and burp out the air, the grail needed to be destroyed or removed from said timeline allowing it to be broken into nothingness.
"We will be preforming the Rayshift by this time tomorrow. Jake, I need you to also grab as much materials as you can so Da-Vinci can fabricate the parts we need so be ready to take apart some mines or even steal a large armed groups weapons for the metals we need." Olga ordered
I nodded in acceptance as the people in the next singularity didnt matter as they would fade into oblivion when the timeline was fixed... Plus they were French.
For the next half an hour basically all we did was brainstorm as to what could have been the disturbance in the timeline and I only threw out the idea that it was likely something to do with Jeanne d'Arc as she was one of the biggest figures in that age but the meeting was cut short as the members of the A team decided it was best for them to go and summon their Servants and get them settled in.
"Jake, can I request you and your Servants to assist us in our summoning, in case the summoning goes poorly." Pepe asked me respectfully and I glanced over to Morgan, Artoria, and Nero who all nodded in assent.
"Alright lead on. We can't have a freshly summoned Servant go crazy, causing destruction or attempting to simply mind control a master into obedience." I said solemnly as there were plenty of Servants that would do just that.
