"The history from 2004 until 2018 does not exist here."
"That is to say, Fuyuki City at this point in time has been separated from the torrent of time and became a hole, a singularity."
"Your task is to transfer Reiko to Fuyuki City in 2004, and find out the reason for the disappearance of human beings in the future."
Olga Marie retracted her hand from the map and looked around at the masters.
"This is the first Reiko transfer battle since the establishment of Chaldea."
"For this reason, we have no clue what kind of problems and difficulties you will encounter."
"However, as long as we don't cross this hurdle, human beings will have no future."
"So, your battle can only succeed, and failure is absolutely not allowed."
Olga Marie spoke again in a loud voice after giving such an order that left no room for explanation.
"Now, as the current director of Chaldea, after an hour, the first Reiko transfer experiment will be officially carried out."
"To be conservative, we will select the top eight people in the simulation battle so far to form Team A and send them to the singularity first."
"The members of Team A have received sufficient training in Chaldea a month ago. They are talents who can stand on their own."
"They will set off first to provide security for the follow-up personnel in the singularity."
"During Team A's operation, the members of Team B and below need to be ready to set off after the second experiment."
After that, Olga Marie clapped her hands. After the battle meeting, about ten minutes passed.
In those ten minutes, the master candidates have already landed on their respective capsules and waited for orders to enter them at any time to perform reiki transfer.
Renault was also waiting next to his own capsule.
It's just …
"It's really annoying …"
Next to his capsule, Renault was muttering with an unhappy face.
On the other side, Mashu, who was also waiting next to her capsule, said as if she had accepted the fact.
"I didn't expect that senpai would be excluded from Team A's list."
Yes.
Renault was not on Team A's list.
A month ago, there were a total of nine masters in Chaldea who were eligible for the position.
Team A, on the other hand, would select the top eight contestants in the simulated battle.
In this way, one of them would naturally be left alone.
Unfortunately, this lone person was none other than Reynolds.
"Who asked Senior not to be serious in the previous simulation battles?"
Mashu helplessly explained the reason.
This was the fundamental reason.
Although in this month, Reynolds was unprecedentedly active, almost every simulation battle got full marks. But before this, Reynolds had never taken the simulation battle seriously. He didn't just get a pass, he didn't even get a pass. Sometimes he was absent or late. All of these were recorded in Chaldea's computer as real results.
As such, Reynolds's result was ranked last, and he was successfully left alone.
Actually, it didn't matter if he was alone or not.
With the people from Team A paving the way for him, Reynolds was happy and relaxed.
However, Mashu was one of the members of Team A.
How could Reynolds feel at ease letting this girl, who was afraid of battle, lead the way to the Singularity in advance?
"It's alright, senior."
Mashu seemed to see the worry in Reynolds's heart, so she said very seriously.
"I will definitely pave the way for Senior and persevere until Senior arrives."
This was not flaunting, but being strong.
Even if she was afraid of fighting, Mashu did not intend to escape from the battle, let alone hide behind Reynolds.
In the face of this girl's strength, Reynolds could not say anything to refute.
"There is no other way …" Reynolds could only say to Mashu, "Then you have to be careful."
"Yes, I know." Mashu nodded heavily.
Reynolds reluctantly stopped complaining, turned his head and looked at the direction of the command room.
There, a group of Chaldea technicians were in full swing, performing the final adjustments of the Reiki transfer, constantly manipulating various instruments.
Olga Marie was also wandering among the technicians, constantly giving instructions.
Reynolds glanced at the situation and then frowned.
"Senior?"
Seeing Reynolds's abnormality again, Mashu could not help but ask.
But this time, Reynolds had no spare energy to respond to Mashu.
Reynolds just stared at the direction of the command room, his expression was extremely serious.
Because there, there was a person who Reynolds had to pay attention to.
"Where is Rafe …?"
It was Rafe.
After carefully searching the interior of the command room, Reynolds still did not find Rafe's figure.
This reminded Reynolds of the strange feeling he felt when he first met Rafe.
This strange feeling, now with Rafe's disappearance, grew stronger and stronger in Reynolds's heart.
In the end, it grew to the point that Reynolds was restless.
"How could that man suddenly disappear at such an important moment?"
The more he thought about it, the more Reynolds felt concerned.
So …
"Sen … Senior? Where are you going? "
Mashu's horrified voice sounded.
At the same time, the rest of the master candidates also cast a stunned and surprised look at Reynolds one by one.
Reynolds did not care about this, while running out of the control room, he shouted at Mashu without looking back.
"I will be back soon!"
After shouting, Reynolds rushed out of the control room under Mashu's call and the whispers of the crowd.
Faintly, it seemed to be accompanied by Olga Marie's roar.
"Lorelei Agnese …!"
Reynolds ran out of the control room without looking back when he heard his name being yelled out.
… …
"Ha … Ha … Ha …"
Not long after running out of the control room, Reynolds felt that his stamina was almost exhausted.
If it were any other time, Reynolds would have already complained and directly fell to the ground.
But this time, Reynolds kept consuming his stamina, running in the corridor of Chaldea, and even used the Bird Summoning Magic to summon dozens of birds and scattered them in Chaldea.
Reynolds ran and searched while dividing his spirit into dozens of parts, sharing his senses with the tamed monsters, looking for Rafe's trace.
Being able to divide his senses into dozens of parts like this while doing his own thing, it showed that Reynolds's ability was excellent.
But …
"Not here …?"
Reynolds, who had one hand on the wall, couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
"How could there not be?"
