Takumi activated [Revelation].
How others used Revelation, Takumi didn't know. But using his Revelation to find people was simply too satisfying, especially when he knew various information about the Singularity but suffered from not being able to find people.
"Black Dog (Cú Alter) and Medb are probably heading east, towards their base Washington. Edison (President Lion) is probably holding his ground in the northeast... In other words, Black Dog and Medb actually crossed almost half of America to chase Rama?"
After using Revelation on everyone he wanted to find, Takumi analyzed it, full of surprise.
What great enmity, what great resentment! Or is Rama really this conspicuous?
"Forget it, let's ignore this."
Thinking casually, Takumi threw this trivial matter to the back of his mind.
"Even if I go to find Edison now, a fight will definitely break out, so ignore him for now too. It's more appropriate to find semi-wild Servants like Geronimo first..."
Takumi thought, nodding repeatedly at his decision.
Had to admit, there were many friendly forces to win over in the entire Fifth Singularity. Besides Rama and Karna, there were also Scáthach, Li Shuwen, Geronimo, Robin Hood, Nightingale... a large group of Servants.
Could be said to be the wealthiest episode.
The only thing Takumi regretted was that Nero Bride here seemed not to have been summoned. He couldn't find where she was with [Revelation] at all.
(Note: The Nero Bride here ran to the previous Second Singularity, and the one who fused with original Nero was her.)
...
Outside the battlefield, on a certain hilltop Takumi didn't notice.
"Hey hey, did you see that young man just now?"
Terrifying combat talent, and that unique way of using Runes...
A beautiful woman holding dual spears looked at Takumi below from a distance, strange colors flashing in her eyes.
"Ah, I saw. That should be a living Master, right?"
Standing beside her, a fierce-looking young man in a red shirt was also staring straight at Takumi's position.
"By the way, can someone's natural talent really be strong to this extent? When I first saw him fighting, his combat skills clearly looked very inexperienced. But in a short time, he improved by leaps and bounds to the point of almost reaching the domain of gods... Or has he just not fought for too long, and the battle just now was just to familiarize himself with the feeling of combat?"
Feeling it was ridiculous, Li Shuwen couldn't help guessing.
Although saying so, Li Shuwen still knew that in his view, time had only passed for less than half a minute, but under Takumi's subjective perception, unknown how long had passed.
But Li Shuwen still felt it was ridiculous. Since when was martial arts reaching the domain of gods so cheap? Mastering it quickly just by hitting a "wooden stake" with speed?
(In fact, the setting of martial arts reaching the domain of gods seems to be a bit common in current Type-Moon...)
"No no no! I can be sure, he just has talent even I have never seen!"
Scáthach denied Li Shuwen's guess.
"Although the battle just now looked a bit like 'getting familiar with the feel', I can sense he is not that simple... Didn't expect that just seeking a place to spar with someone on a whim would lead to encountering such a treasure!"
Scáthach forcibly suppressed the excitement in her heart, but the corners of her mouth still involuntarily curved into an excited arc.
Scáthach, who was semi-divine, couldn't die like a normal person. Possessing considerable immortality and staying in the "Land of Shadows," she basically could only wait for the world and its outside to demise before welcoming death.
Being able to manifest as a Servant this time was also because Goetia's Noble Phantasm burned the Human Order, causing her Land of Shadows to be affected as well, resulting in her as a Servant.
But this kind of death wasn't what she wanted. What she wanted was a dignified death. She hoped even more that the one to kill her would be a disciple granted a spear by herself.
And now, she saw this possibility!
A stronger possibility than even accepting Cú Chulainn as a disciple back then!
"We—he left, running so fast!"
Scáthach just wanted to call Li Shuwen to go down and find Takumi together, when she found Takumi's figure disappear from the spot in the blink of an eye.
Scaring her into hurriedly searching for Takumi's tracks. But when found again, she realized he had almost run out of her sight!
Scáthach saw this—this is serious!
With Takumi's speed, if she didn't chase quickly, maybe she wouldn't be able to encounter him again until the entire Singularity ended.
"Quick quick! We have to catch up with him!"
Scáthach, unable to let hope run away before her eyes like this, became anxious instantly, about to turn into spiritual form to chase Takumi on the spot.
"Eh, wait! Didn't we agree to spar first?"
Li Shuwen hurriedly pulled Scáthach.
He, Li Shuwen, didn't care about Takumi that much. Manifesting this time just to find strong people for life-and-death combat, "fighting feels good" was the most appropriate description for him.
"There will always be time if you want to fight. But him—don't you want to see what level this Master can reach?"
Scáthach turned her head, looking at Li Shuwen with excited eyes.
"..."
Facing Scáthach's suggestion, Li Shuwen fell silent. Contemplation → understanding → right!
"Makes sense!"
The two hit it off instantly. After spiritualizing, they began to run wildly in the direction Takumi left.
...
On the other side.
Medb and Cú Chulainn Alter walking towards Washington.
"...Fergus has exited."
Medb, who had a connection with Servants on her side, was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke.
"Hah? Didn't you send him to deal with a little girl? How did he die suddenly?"
Cú Chulainn Alter was somewhat surprised.
It hadn't been long since Medb sent Fergus to deal with Sita imprisoned in Alcatraz.
Medb spread her hands, also full of helplessness.
"Sigh, I also want to know what happened. Clearly a few minutes ago he said he had completed the mission and was rushing back. But just now he replied with baffling 'so hot' and 'who is Little Brock'? Then suddenly exited."
"...Being able to finish him off so quickly, and very hot. Could it be he encountered Karna?"
Searching for matching characteristics, Medb guessed.
"Impossible. Karna is powerful, but impossible to finish off Fergus so quickly."
Cú Chulainn Alter had also fought with Karna. Indeed very strong, but Fergus wasn't a pushover either.
"Then who could it be?"
"Did you forget the person who rescued Rama from us not long ago? Used fire, very fast."
Cú Chulainn Alter grinned.
If it were just an assassin skilled in concealment, it would be impossible to finish off Fergus so quickly. Thus easily eliminating a wrong option.
Medb suddenly realized, but couldn't help wondering:
"If he rescued Rama and finished off Fergus, how fast must his speed be?"
"The location where Rama was rescued isn't as close to Alcatraz as imagined."
Even Fergus was sent over by Medb because he was close to that side.
"Who knows? Maybe it was a group of people who finished off Fergus."
Cú Chulainn Alter shrugged. He was just guessing casually.
Medb was helpless but had no choice. This "King" she created using the Holy Grail was cold, rational, unscrupulous in achieving goals, and indeed strong as a warrior beyond comparison.
But as for aptitude as a King, couldn't say none, only say almost none.
And his goal was just to destroy this land completely. Methods and processes didn't matter.
Thinking this, Medb silently heightened vigilance against this unmet enemy in her heart.
...
...
Takumi naturally didn't know that two groups of people were eyeing him after this short battle.
He was now more concerned about the voice and existence in front that made him stop involuntarily.
"Heart pounding~ boudoir romance~"
"That is a maiden's Iron Maiden~"
"Locking beloved you inside to pierce..."
Demonic sound piercing ears, making Takumi, who had heard Euryale's singing, unable to help rubbing his head.
As for the owner of this voice, presumably no need to say more, right?
Exactly—the ubiquitous Elisabeth Báthory!
The character occupying the most screen time in the entire FGO Part 1 storyline—even all the same one sharing memories.
Uh, although Takumi only finally truly met this ubiquitous Elisabeth now.
