"By comparison, I feel like the atmosphere here has beco even gloomier."
Caelus wondered whether he should make so moderate adjustnts. After all, he could only rely on vague spiritual senses to explore the colors of the world, and the feedback he received was naturally blurry as well, so he did not really care much about colors. But now that he had a Partner by his side, she probably would not like this train carriage with its overly dim overall tone.
Caelus spent 10 points of currency to change the color sche of the entire interior environnt of the train.
"Partner! I like the current colors much better!"
m happily pounced onto the pink sofa. There was a heart-shaped pillow next to it, and m buried herself in it, looking extrely comfortable.
Caelus did not mind that he, a guy, was using pink furniture. He sat on the sofa as well. With only 1990 system currency points in his savings, he could not spend much ti training in the Cultivation Room, so he decided to quietly wait for the system's travel ti to end.
"System, what will the next world be like?"
[You've already grown stronger once, and your life status has advanced a step. It's ti to go back to the Type-Moon World and fleece so more wool.]
"Hmm?"
[The Type-Moon World, although slightly inferior in terms of nurical values compared to nurous other universes, has many chanisms that are indeed very useful. Next, I will send you to the most special tiline in the Type-Moon World... By the way, do you want to continue being a Servant, or would you like to act as a Master?]
"What kind of changes can different choices bring?"
[If you want to continue being a Servant, take this opportunity to fill in your experiences from other worlds to strengthen the concept of the Traveler. This will allow you to obtain the Foreigner class. Then, this template will generate exclusive abilities for the Foreigner class, enriching your thods in various aspects, and you will be able to strengthen yourself further through a series of thods like the Holy Grail.]
[If you want to beco a Master, although you cannot gain new abilities, the advantage over being a Servant is that you can act independently, do not need to obey anyone's orders, and can summon Servants to fight for you. You can also gain rewards through the stories of those Servants. And while the Holy Grail of that world cannot be used to strengthen you, you can use it to strengthen m, because I will designate m as your Servant.]
[Then, as compensation, I will update a system template specifically for cultivating Servants for you. You can use this to strengthen m in the Type-Moon World, or strengthen the Servant puppets you have clad in armor.]
"Are you saying that the puppets I created by devouring the existence of the Servant Lancelot and forging them with the power of Nihility can be strengthened through this template?"
[Yes, they can.]
"Master. I choose Master. My personal combat power can continue to rise by using the powers of Equilibrium, Nihility, and mory, but m lacks an ability that allows her to progress alongside . Therefore, obtaining a Master template will allow m's subsequent growth to keep pace with mine, making her useful in future battles."
[Alright, wait a little longer, and we will arrive at that world. Oh, perhaps this is a good ti for a bit of Pom-Pom's dialogue.]
At this mont, a voice suddenly echoed inside the carriage. It was the voice of the conductor, Pom-Pom, that Caelus had heard on the Astral Express before.
[Ahem! Hello, hello, hello! One, two, three! Hello, hello, hello! One, two, three! Very good, the voice pack is working fine.]
"m!"
m's ears perked up, clearly startled.
"Do not worry, this is the system using the voice of the Astral Express conductor, Pom-Pom, to play cosplay."
[Attention passengers, the train is about to warp! The train is about to warp! Please take your seats!]
m obediently sat on the sofa, her two little hands clutching Caelus's clothes.
Caelus also reached out and hugged m.
[Warp countdown, three, two, one!]
And then?
Everything around them was quiet. There was no violent shaking, no powerful recoil, no flashy special effects, and no special scenes.
[The train has arrived at the destination: Type-Moon Universe, Fate/Grand Order tiline. Current ti point: 24 hours before the Incineration of Humanity. Connection to the Root successful. Passenger identity processing complete. Starting implantation.]
At this mont, the surrounding environnt plunged into darkness for an instant. When the light reappeared, Caelus found himself lying on the floor, with an unfamiliar ceiling above him, and a small white animal that looked like a dog, or perhaps a squirrel, staring at him.
Caelus sat up from the floor and looked around, discovering that he was in a cold tal corridor. On his right, he could see a huge piece of glass, and outside the glass was a frozen, snowy environnt.
[Identity implantation complete, Host. You are now Chaldea's 49th Master candidate. Open the panel to check the settings and information regarding this.]
Caelus opened the system panel and found a folder on it. After opening it, he found basic information about Chaldea and Master candidates, as well as so information about his currently implanted identity.
[Additionally, m is currently in the Throne of Heroes of this world, receiving her own power. She can only be summoned through a summoning ritual.]
Caelus sat up from the floor and turned around, wanting to take a look at that strange little animal, but found that it had already disappeared.
Caelus did not pay much attention to this. Although he felt that the little animal was unusual, it had nothing to do with him. Now, according to the prompts from the system information, he should go find Chaldea's current director to report in.
Looking at the guide arrows in his line of sight that only he could see, Caelus suddenly felt that it was just like encountering a beginner's tutorial in a video ga, guiding him on how to walk.
After passing through several long corridors, Caelus finally saw Chaldea's director in a place similar to a reception room.
The person even had a na floating above her head.
[Olga Marie Animusphere]
"Caelus, 49th Master candidate, reporting."
Olga Marie looked at Caelus in front of her and imdiately felt a headache coming on. Why did it feel like another problem child? Forget it, he was just a bottom-ranked loser anyway, there was no need to worry too much about it.
"Hmm, you're quite punctual, not late. Unlike the 48th candidate, who still has not arrived. Go find Dr. Roman, he will arrange a place for you to rest. Gather in the Control Room in one hour for the pre-briefing eting."
"Understood."
Caelus simply acknowledged it and turned to leave.
Seeing how straightforward he was, Olga Marie could not help but feel a bit puzzled. Did this newcor who had just arrived really know the way?
Of course Caelus did not know the way, but he had arrows in his line of sight, he just had to follow them.
Caelus walked for a while longer and found a room. Discovering that the door was not locked, he pressed the switch to let the door open automatically. After that, he saw the ponytailed doctor sitting on the bed, looking at a computer screen and eating cake.
[Romani Archaman (Solomon)]
Hmm, what a quick reveal.
(To be continued.)
