"Today …"
For a moment, Matthew showed a somewhat speechless expression.
From Matthew's eyes, Rozen even saw a lot of wavering and complicated emotions, which made him a little speechless.
As a test subject, Matthew was not allowed to move freely in Chaldea before. It was only two years ago that she got the permission and met Rozen.
Since then, Matthew has regarded Rozen as her own support.
Rozen could imagine how Matthew felt when he disappeared in Chaldea for more than three months.
Otherwise, Matthew would not have rushed over and hugged him directly the moment she saw him.
Now, he had only been back for a few days, and he would disappear again tonight. How could Matthew not feel uneasy and shaken?
(I really …)
Rozen cursed at himself for just realizing this matter and prepared to say something to Matthew.
However …
"Senior, you don't have to change your decision because of my feelings."
Matthew seemed to see through what Rozen was thinking and stared at him with an incomparably serious expression.
"Matthew …"
Being stared at so seriously by Matthew, Rozen almost held his breath for a moment.
Under such circumstances, Mashu opened her mouth.
"I know that Senior will do his best to do what he has to do. From the beginning, you have been such a person." Matthew looked straight at Rozen and said, "So, I don't want to drag Senior down."
"But …" Rozen's tone became hesitant.
Looking at Rozen like this, Matthew's expression suddenly became very gentle.
Then, Matthew made such a confession.
"All along, I have regarded laying the foundation of humanity as a job and obligation, because this is my responsibility, the meaning of continuing to exist in Chaldea."
Matthew lowered her head and said so.
"I know very well that I am not as compassionate as the doctors, who fight to save mankind, nor am I as determined as the director, who fight for the survival of humanity. I do not regard the survival of mankind as an issue that must be solved but as a research topic."
In other words, Matthew was only fighting for herself, not for others.
"So, when I met all of you at the singularity, I was really shocked."
Matthew's voice echoed slowly.
"Even betrayed by France, Mademoiselle Jeanne still acted to save her country."
"Miss Mary, who loved everyone even when she was sentenced by the people."
"Mr. Amadeus, who silently supported the person he loved even though he knew that the person he loved was treated unfairly."
"Even though she knows that the future cannot be changed, Miss Elizabeth still rejects her fallen self."
"And Miss Kiyohime, although it's a bit strange, she still loves for her own persistence."
"Everyone's beliefs, reasons, and starting points are different, but I was deeply touched by everyone and realized that I must have a reason to fight."
"It's not just to complete a job, there must be a meaning here."
Matthew smiled at Rozen.
"I believe that senpai must think so too, right?"
Hearing this, Rozen answered without thinking.
"Of course."
If not, Rozen will not work hard for the great goal of saving all mankind.
There is something he wants in front of this road.
Only when one was sure of this would one strive for success.
"I also want to grasp my own destiny like senpai."
Matthew showed a sense of existence that she didn't have in the past.
"So, even if I still have to rely on senpai in the future, I will do what I can do when senpai is not here. I will train myself harder, improve myself, make myself stronger, and become a contract servant worthy of senpai."
With that, Matthew took a step forward, took Rozen's hand, and held him in her palm.
At this moment, Rozen saw some of Jeanne d 'Arc in Matthew.
This is not to say that Matthew is similar to Jeanne d 'Arc, but this girl is like the legendary saintess, gradually understanding love and tolerance.
"I will work hard for senpai."
Matthew said from the bottom of her heart.
"And senpai, for the faith in your heart, stick to your own way."
Such a voice, passed into Rozen's ears, unexpectedly swept away all the troubles in his heart.
Including those brought about by the various mysteries in the singularity.
Rozen recalled that before the Fuyuki City Singularity appeared, when he was worried about whether he should participate in the battle or not, it was the girl in front of him who cleared his mind and helped him make a decision. Rozen thought so.
"I'm always saved by you, Matthew."
Rozen couldn't help but say so, with an expression of finally relaxing.
Seeing this scene, Matthew also smiled.
"Because, I'm always saved by senpai."
The girl's words will probably stay in Rozen's heart forever.
The two of them didn't say anything more, just turned their heads together, and looked out the window.
Even though it was still silent and dark, the two of them seemed to see a bright future, as if looking at the beautiful blue sky, without a trace of haze on their faces.
"Fou!"
Fou, who had landed on the ground, looked up at this scene, as if it was a little dazzling, as if it was happy, it let out a soft cry.
Even if the outside world was dark, it was still warm here.
… …
After returning to the room, Rozen took off his Chaldea uniform and put on the kimono he brought back from the mechanical world, took off his gloves, and touched the ring on his finger.
"Which door should I open?"
His purpose this time was the same as last time, he wanted as much time as possible.
In that case, returning to the mechanical world might be a good choice.
After all, when he went to the mechanical world, Rozen directly turned into a baby, which proved that the flow of time between the two worlds was very different. Rozen had been there for fifteen years, but only three months had passed in Chaldea, and the door that was opened once would no longer affect Rozen's body. Going there was undoubtedly the best choice.
Unfortunately …
"As long as I open the door once, the passage between the two worlds will be opened, allowing me to pass freely, and the flow of time between the two worlds will gradually close until the time ratio of the two worlds is the same."
Therefore, now, the flow of time in the mechanical world should gradually slow down until it was exactly the same as Chaldea, right?
In that case, Rozen couldn't choose to return to the mechanical world.
"I can only choose the new world."
But if he went to the new world, Rozen's body would be affected again. If he returned to the baby period again, he might not be lucky enough to be picked up, and it was more likely that he would starve to death on the street.
"So, this time, I must choose a world with a more appropriate time flow."
To be specific, it was a world that would not make him unable to act on his own, and even if the time flow was slower than the mechanical world, it would still be much faster than Chaldea.
Thinking of that, Rozen used the power of Miracle to observe the time flow of each world and chose the most suitable one.
"This is it."
Just as Rozen made his decision …
"Shhnnnnn!"
