Chapter 521 Unexpected unfolding, questioning
On Chaldea's side, Holmes spoke first and smiled at Fujimaru Ritsuka: "As for the truth about this incident, we only became aware of it after you returned to Chaldea and left again. I found a clue and found out the truth not long ago, and started to think of ways to solve the problem. "
"That time?"
"That's right."
At that time, Fujimaru Ritsuka had just returned that day and left immediately that night. It seemed as if the [Transfer] had been triggered again unintentionally, but in fact it was not the case.
They paid close attention to Fujimaru Ritsuka and immediately discovered that Fujimaru Ritsuka's departure was different from previous [transfers], and detected a faint unfamiliar fluctuation.
They soon determined that Fujimaru Ritsuka did not leave on his own that time, but more like being pushed out.
And the 'person' who pushed her was the source of this weak fluctuation.
So they clung to this clue, followed the clues all the way, and finally found the true face of the mastermind behind the scenes - inhibition.
Having said this, the adult Leonardo sighed helplessly and said:
"But what we didn't expect was that the human villains headed by Goetia seemed to have been aware of this for a long time, and even secretly formulated such a ridiculous plan. It was really a mistake."
"well……"
Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka also sighed.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the adult Leonardo da Vinci laughed again, looked at her with interest and said:
"But then again, Ritsuka, you have really become a Beast now...it doesn't look like much has changed, but it still feels very strange~!"
"If you want to say it's novel, it's indeed novel."
Fujimaru Ritsuka complained in a black tone, and even the new director was speechless: "This is not an interesting thing at all, is it? Someone changed the race for no reason or something."
"The fat director...!"
Seeing that it was rare for someone to understand him, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at him movedly, but at this moment, U-Olga Marie on the side suddenly said:
"It's actually wrong to say that."
"Although Ritsuka has become a Beast, she is also a human."
"Eh?"
U—Olga Marie’s speech immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
Holmes said:
"Excuse me, why do you say that?"
"this……"
U-Olga Marie's expression was a little hesitant, then she shook her head and said:
"If you ask me to elaborate, I can't explain it in detail. I just have this feeling."
"Is that so?"
Holmes raised his eyebrows slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he did not continue to ask, but returned to the topic: "In short, the reason why Ritsuka was unable to return to Chaldea in the past was because the two inhibitory forces were standing still for some reason. A wall of inhibition has been set up against her, denying her entry. This is the situation until recently."
"……Wait a moment."
Everyone nodded after hearing this, but at this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly noticed something, raised his hands and asked in confusion: "Holmes, what you just said...'not long ago'?"
The other party's words made her notice an inexplicable abnormality.
"That's right, not long ago."
Sure enough, Holmes smiled and nodded. At this time, Xion also interjected and said with a smile:
"The next thing we are going to discuss is-"
"To be precise, about an hour before the beasts returned to Chaldea, we detected that the wall of suppression built by the two major suppression forces suddenly disappeared on its own."
"Eh? Disappeared?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned for a moment. He was about to say something, but then he suddenly realized and understood why she felt unimpeded when returning to Chaldea.
Not because she forcibly broke through the wall of inhibition, but because the wall of inhibition no longer exists?
"...but why?"
Mashu on the side looked puzzled and said:
"Why did the restraint force refuse the senior to return to Chaldea? Why did the restriction suddenly be lifted?"
This is also the question Fujimaru Ritsuka wants to ask. However, the adult Leonardo Da Vinci can only shake his head and say: "We also want to know, but unfortunately there is no way to get the answer yet."
"However, based on your experience, Ritsuka, we guess that this may be related to the fact that you have become a Beast." Hearing this, the new director held his chin and said: "Could it be that because of learning about Ritsuka? After becoming Beast, they realized that they could no longer restrict her, so did they give up on their own initiative? "
"As expected of the new director, it sounds reasonable."
Holmes smiled and praised the new director, which immediately made him feel a little elated. He couldn't help but said proudly: "Of course! I am the director..."
"Anyway, judging from the results alone, the incident seems to have been resolved. But..."
Adult Da Vinci showed his hands and said:
"The reasons are somewhat concerning, right?"
More than just a little bit of concern, it was simply too much concern. What do those two inhibitions want to do?
Fujimaru Ritsuka asked:
"Where's the princess?"
The adult Da Vinci replied:
"Princess Arquette should be in her room now."
"I'm going to find her!"
As the representative of Gaia, the earth’s consciousness, Erqit Brunstadt would definitely not believe it if she said she didn’t know why Gaia did this.
"Senior/Ritsuka...!"
Seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka turn around and leave, both Mashu and Roman looked worried.
Then, Roman said to everyone: "Let me follow you and take a look."
Hearing what Roman said, Mashu, who was about to take action, stopped and asked him:
"Doctor, I'm sorry to trouble you."
If it were anyone else, she might still be uneasy, but Roman's words would definitely be fine.
"Um!"
Roman nodded solemnly and followed quickly.
——
Although it was not obvious on the surface, Fujimaru Ritsuka was indeed a little angry in his heart. Of course, she was not angry at Arquette, but at the inhibitions of those two people who didn't know what they were doing.
So she prepared to find Arquette in one go and ask directly.
but--
"Ritsuka!"
Looking at the servant calling him in front of him, Fujimaru Ritsuka unexpectedly said:
"Space Ishtar?"
Space Ishtar is also a Servant from the Servant Universe and is the evil clone of the original goddess Astarte. She was raised as a benevolent god, and her personality is somewhat similar to that of Ishtar. She is a kind-hearted bounty hunter full of bad taste.
Ritsuka Fujimaru was not surprised by the chance encounter with Ishtar from space. What surprised her was that the other person's face had visible anger at this time, and he looked even angrier than her.
So she asked with concern:
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Seeing this, Space Ishtar's face turned slightly red, and then he became even more dissatisfied:
"You guy, you are really...! Even at this time, you still care about others first."
"I've heard all about you and that person's inhibitions!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka was immediately surprised and said:
"Eh? Has it all reached you?"
"Of course, it's almost spreading throughout New Chaldea!"
Mentioning this matter, Space Ishtar said angrily:
"It's so irritating. There is such a despicable, ungrateful planet. It's really hard to watch!"
Only then did Fujimaru Ritsuka understand that the reason why the other party was angry was actually because of what happened to her.
Thinking of this, the anger in her heart suddenly faded a little for some reason, and a smile appeared on her face.
"——Are you still laughing?!"
