In response, Aveena nodded, then shook her head and corrected herself.
"I did sign a contract with senpai, and I did get the power of a servant, but I'm not a regular servant."
Avina paused slightly and then said.
"I'm now a sub-servant."
When Reynolds heard that sentence, his first reaction was not surprise, but a wry smile.
"Sure enough … is that the case …?"
Subservient.
It wasn't a special servant, but something created by human hands.
The so-called servants, although they had inhuman power and could provide amazing combat power, they were heroes, legends, and fantasies of the past. Each of them had extraordinary will and beliefs. It was a bit unrealistic to want to be a servant at will.
In other words, the servant may betray the master, and it was more likely to violate the master's orders, disobey the master's command, and even harm the master.
It was precisely to prevent this situation from happening that the command spell was born.
The Command Incantation was a command that could be used three times. There were a total of three strokes, and each stroke was a command. The original intention of the Command Incantation was to forcibly control the servants and make them listen to the master's command.
Chaldea remade this command system to cooperate with the hero spirit summoning system, so that the master who contracted with the servant could also use the command spell.
However, Chaldea's command curse did not focus on the aspect of "domination". Instead, it specialized in the aspect of "support". Abandoning the command power, it had a miraculous effect on the servant's strengthening, healing, and other aspects. For the servant's domination, at best, it had a similar effect as a "curse".
Of course, if all three command spells were used at once, it was not impossible to force the servant to obey.
Anyway, with the magical power of Chaldea, the masters could get a command charm every day, and it would take three days to restore the command charm. When it was time to use it, they could still use it.
However, if the servant did not obey the master's command, it would cause great trouble every time. It was not good for the battle at all.
In addition, the servant itself was a spirit, and its existence itself needed to consume magical power. In order to make up for various defects, Chaldea carried out an experiment.
"The fusion of human and hero spirit …"
That's right.
The fusion of human and hero spirit.
That was one of the research that had been carried out more than a decade ago. It was the sixth experiment of Chaldea.
"By fusing with the hero spirit, the experimental body can not only get the power of the servant level, but because it's not a spirit, it doesn't need to consume magical power. What's more, it can obey orders and avoid all kinds of disadvantages. That's the sub-servant."
Reynolds looked at Avina and said bitterly.
"This experiment is actually completed now?"
The sub-servant experiment started more than a decade ago, but it has not been successful so far.
Reynolds did not expect that the experiment was completed under such circumstances.
Avina said so.
"After all, I originally existed for this reason.
Ai Weina's emotionless words made Reynolds clench his fists.
Now that things had come to this, there was no need to say anything more.
Avina was one of the subjects of that experiment.
That was Avina's past, and that was her fate and life before she appeared in Chaldea two years ago.
It wasn't until two years ago that she was finally liberated because of the failure of the experiment. The girl who could appear in Chaldea openly became a non-human after all.
"It's … Damn it …!"
Reynolds couldn't help but curse.
After a while, Reynolds's clenched fist was held by a pair of soft hands.
"Please don't be so angry, senpai."
Avina gently wrapped Reynolds's clenched fist with her hands.
There was also a quiet smile on her face.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with this."
Avina's straightforward words echoed around.
"At least, now I have the power to protect senpai. I feel very happy to be able to fight with senpai as a servant of senpai."
That was definitely not a lie.
The girl named Avina must be grateful for the current situation from the bottom of her heart.
"If it's me now, then I have the ability to fight."
Avina smiled at Reynolds.
However, the girl didn't know that her smile made Reynolds feel distressed.
(What do you mean by very happy?)
Reynolds recalled the look in Avina's eyes not long ago.
In addition to the trust as always, there was something else in her eyes.
That thing was called fear.
(On the one hand, she was happy because she got the power to fight with me. On the other hand, she was afraid of the battle itself. She was afraid of it …)
Reynolds held Iwena's hand, and as he exerted force, he made a decision in his heart.
(I will never let her face all this alone …)
In Chaldea, there were only three cases where a heroic spirit was successfully summoned.
That was to say, there were already three servants in Chaldea.
And according to Avina …
"The one that fused with me is Heroic Spirit Experiment No. 2."
That was what Aveena told Reynolds.
"Before I was engulfed by the fire in the control room, the Hero Spirit proposed a contract with me. He gave me his ability and relic as a Hero Spirit. In return, he hoped that I could eliminate the singularity and save humanity."
It was precisely because of this that Avina got the power and became a sub-servant.
This also made Reynolds understand.
"So that's how it is. Since the subject himself agreed, the experiment naturally succeeded, right?"
In this world, the most difficult experiment to complete was no other than the experiment that couldn't be done with cooperation.
Since the subject made full cooperation, the difficulty of the experiment would naturally be reduced.
So, Avina finally became a sub-servant.
"Fortunately, before the reiki transfer, I made a contract with the predecessor."
Avina said.
"If it wasn't because of the contract, the predecessor wouldn't be able to summon me."
Perhaps the adjustment of the reiki transfer was not completed, and there was a deviation. Reynolds and Avina were separated in the process of reiki transfer and were transferred to different places.
If Reynolds didn't use the command spell, he would have died in the hands of the unknown Archer.
But …
"You can actually perform a space transfer with just a command spell. You are indeed a predecessor."
