A Golden Business

The time is now. I shall start the grand enterprise that I've been planning for a long time.

However, to make something perfect, you need unparalleled talent and resolve.

Don't you think so, Fujimaru? You should understand my suffering.

(Senpai. I think Red Saber is trying to talk to you.)

(These questions can be a headache. Let's just give her a random answer.)

？！

Umu! I knew you'd get it right away. Thanks to you, I've made up my mind.

We're going to rebuild the Domus Aurea! My Noble Phantasm and the essence of my artist's soul

In any event, we've come to the plains in search of the last required piece. Lend me a hand, Fujimaru.

We need to be careful with money. Rebuilding the Golden Theater will be costly.

The materials, personnel, and my design fees! This time, let's try to do something about the material costs.

She's trying to improve her Noble Phantasm with money... Not a lot of Heroic Spirits would do that.

So that's why you were trying to gather treasure before. But Your Majesty, can you strengthen your Noble Phantasm like that?

Of course. The Golden Theater I created with my magical energy is based off the original that existed.

It's a matter of the image that's in my mind when I activate my Noble Phantasm. If we renovate the theater, I can sear that image in my mind.

That way, when I use my Noble Phantasm it should be just as extravagant and even more dazzling. That's the plan, anyway.

...I see. So her Noble Phantasm depends on the power of her imagination.

The more grand that Theater becomes, the more real the image becomes for Red Saber.

Haha, don't compliment me now, Fujimaru. You're so cute. Compliment me later.

Dummy! Pushing yourself and pretending is the same thing! What's the point of not trying your best?

？！

In any event, the final material should appear soon. Everyone get ready for combat. This is going to be tough?

??? It's going to appear?

Just what are you going to have us make?

Isn't it obvious? A colosseum of sorts.

Fou?

Umu, a new Golden Theater. A mix between a theater and a colosseum, a completely new way to watch someone fight.

...Well, there won't be any fighting in the Theater. I'm just going to make the entrance look like the Colosseum.

Do you guys know what Colosseum means?

I think it was...Oh, I remember. It means "Before the Giant Statue."

That's right. It came from the word "colossus."

There's a giant statue in front of the Colosseum in Rome that watches over the spectators.

Oh, that's right. It was around the time of Emperor Nero when that colosseum

That's right! It was a statue of me! It's 31 meters high. It was a beautiful statue.

Though when the Colosseum was built my Theater was destroyed, but let's not talk about that.

In any event, this time I'm after

Master, we've got hostiles! Oh, noThere's a bunch of golems closing in!

Nero, this couldn't be your

Umu. I used my patrons to drive the golems here to use as material!

Let's do this, Fujimaru! It's the spring of golem hunting!

We've taken out the enemy golems... The battle is over...

Kyuu...

What a primitive way of fighting... To pummel the gates physically...

U-Umu, this went too far. I've realized my mistake here...

But with this much material here, let's start building! I'll show you how mankind first started using concrete!

Hm...I have to think about that...

N-No, that's quite okay, Senpai!

？！

...Sorry. I'll build the statue later. These golems make for good materials, but...

They just don't have the right appeal. The voices I hear from the stones are the brawny types.

I can't carve a good statue with this. I've given up on the Colosseum style this time.

But I will rebuild the Theater. Don't worry, I won't waste your effort Master.

Now it's time to really get to work! Let's get the materials together and make our triumphant return to Rome!

We're going to make my Theater strong, firm, and as tough as a fortress...

That's right, something Heracles can't even handle. The strongest Theater yet!

This emperor hasn't learned anything!
