Book 2: Chapter 1: Starting in the Enemy’s Base

Book 02: 1st Singularity

Magus of Flowers: Is it finally going to start? I’m looking forward to seeing the 1st Singularity livestreamed.

He Who Knows Fate: …That’s right. Merlin, that Doctor Roman asked a person called Magi☆Mari for help. That person is not you, right? If that is the case, the loyal male fan you mentioned before, the one who would frequently send donations, even when he was busy treating patients, is this doctor, right?

[TL Note: Doctor Roman is one of the characters you meet in Fate/Grand Order’s prologue. He is the head of the medical division of Chaldea Security Organization. Note that his actual name is Solomon, as in King Solomon of the Bible, son of King David. Here is Doctor Roman’s profile: /wiki/Romani_Archaman.]

Although Chen Heng phrased it as a question, he felt that the chances of this person being Magi☆Mari was very high. After all, not just anyone could say such words: Why don’t I just die and reincarnate?

Magus of Flowers: I have to say, He Who Knows Fate, your instincts are quite sharp at times.

He Who Knows Fate: …Will you be more humane? That doctor is too pitiful.

Magus of Flowers: What can I do? I was forced into this. Who made me feel so bored? Furthermore, don’t you think this is so much fun?

Queen of Ice and Snow: Fortunately, Solomon has already become an ordinary human. Otherwise, I feel that even Avalon cannot protect you. Your bad taste is too…

Magus of Flowers: Alright, alright. Let’s stop this meaningless conversation. Quickly, go to the 1st Singularity. Hurry up! Hurry up!

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: The 1st Singularity? FGO’s 1st Singularity, right? I played that before. What’s the mission?

He Who Knows Fate: Sigurd can’t be summoned. So, I’m going there as his substitute.

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: Fighting a dragon, then. I feel that this dragon is quite difficult to deal with. However, as I have never met it before, it is hard to say.

Magus of Flowers: Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Quickly transmigrate!

He Who Knows Fate: Alright, I got it. I’m not in a rush. Why are you in such a rush?

Magus of Flowers: I’m entering the livestream.

Chen Heng closed the chatting interface and tapped “Start Mission.”

An oval black hole appeared in front of Chen Heng.

Little black hole, we meet again.

Chen Heng stepped in, and everything turned black.

When he next opened his eyes, he found himself in a magnificent hall. A group of people was laughing awkwardly. Yes, awkward laughter.

This scene was completely different from what Chen Heng imagined. He thought he would appear in front of Gudako and the others. If not, he would probably appear in a desolate plain with no one. He never expected such a situation.

I seem to have seen this scene before. Damn! Isn’t this the enemy’s base from the starting scene? These people laughing awkwardly are Jeanne d’Arc Alter and her subordinate Servants, right? This scene in the game had left a deep impression on Chen Heng, as he could not imagine how the “Hah…Haha. Ahaha. Ahaha—hahahahaha! Ahahahahahaha!” sounded in the game.

[TL Note: Jeanne d’Arc Alter is a version of Jeanne d’Arc, twisted by the summoner’s hatred. In Chinese, the direct translation of Jeanne d’Arc Alter is Black Jeanne d’Arc. Here are the profiles of Jeanne d’Arc Alter and Jeanne d’Arc: /wiki/Jeanne_d%27Arc_Alter and /wiki/Jeanne_d%27Arc_(Ruler).]

Magus of Flowers: Damn! You went straight into the enemy’s base! What an incredible feat!

Merlin typed this in the livestream interface. It appeared to Chen Heng as a row of translucent words in midair.

“Who are you? How did you get in here?” Upon noticing Chen Heng’s sudden arrival, Jeanne d’Arc Alter and the others immediately brought out their weapons and pointed them at him.

When Chen Heng arrived in this world and noticed the group laughing awkwardly, he had already started laying a gravity field in the surroundings. With the gravity ability, the more time he took laying the field, the stronger the gravitational effect. Hence, he started introducing himself to buy time. “Now that everyone’s awkward laughter has ended, let me introduce myself. I am—”

“Kill him! He is a Ruler!” Jeanne d’Arc Alter shouted, interrupting Chen Heng. When she waved, the group of Servants charged at Chen Heng.

[TL Note: Ruler is a class of Servants. You can get more information about the Ruler class and the other classes at the following two webpages: /wiki/Ruler and /wiki/Servant#Classification.]

“Me, a Ruler?” Although Chen Heng found it strange that Jeanne d’Arc Alter called him a Ruler, he did not have time to check his current status.

“Kneel!” Just as the Servants were about to arrive before Chen Hang, he activated the gravity field. The gravity of the area visible to him instantly increased tenfold and continuously strengthened.

“Bang!” The many Servants fell straight to their knees. No one noticed, as it was a sudden attack. Furthermore, they were charging forward, so stumbling was not strange.

These Servants were not ordinary people. Their physiques were significantly stronger than ordinary people’s, so the tenfold gravity would not kill them, but who knows if it kept increasing?

“Oh! My goodness. I know I’m a little handsome, but there’s no need for everyone to be so formal on our first meeting. You are embarrassing me.” Chen Heng scratched his head, appearing somewhat abash. He did not even think about who made these Servants kneel.

Although Chen Heng currently held the upper hand, he felt that his gravity ability was draining his energy significantly faster for some reason. Furthermore, it was not as powerful as usual. At this rate, he would be exhausted in another few more minutes. This was a bizarre situation. Given Chen Heng’s Will Energy standards, he should have been able to end this mission before even starting it if he could use his gravity ability as usual and maintain it.

“You bastard! Get up and capture him alive! I want to kill him with my own hands!” The nearby Jeanne d’Arc Alter had dropped to one knee, supporting herself with the standard she held. She had never felt this humiliated before. She was indeed just created, so it was her first time getting beaten up.

“So…my mom is calling me home for dinner. I’m going first, then. Goodbye, everyone.” Since the 1st Singularity was Chaldea’s novice training ground, Chen Heng figured he should not end Chaldea’s operation so quickly. Furthermore, he felt he might not be able to defeat the Servants.

[TL Note: Chaldea Security Organization is the organization the main character belongs to in Fate/Grand Order. Here is more information: /wiki/Chaldea_Security_Organization.]

Chen Heng watched as the Servants slowly stood up and charged toward him. He used his attraction ability on a portion of the roof above, causing it to collapse, and then flew off.

Since Chen Heng could not fight, he had to flee and hide, right?

“After him! Capture that bastard. I want to burn him with my own hands.” Jeanne d’Arc Alter’s flustered and exasperated voice came from behind, scaring Chen Heng into flying faster.
