Tick Tock, Bang!

Now then, now then. I have a hypothesis for you, my Master.

I know this is sudden.

But this world is ruled by an oppressor. Yes, a bad person. A very bad person!

And so I've taken it upon myself to fix this. By blowing things up!

And I want your help, you see.

Stalk the streets of London at night with me, and we'll set bombs!

Huge, amazing explosions! Dreadnought-class disaster! Come, let us travel to London!

Oh, Mash? Would you like to come with us? You're more than welcome.

If you can? If you've nothing better to do? If you want to spoil the fun?

I'll go with you no matter what, Master. Being alone with him seems like suicide.

Hehe, hehehehehe! Yes, of course! You must be ready for anything!

And off we go, everyone!

...He dragged us off so quickly I didn't have time to object.

I guess we've got no choice. I can't contact the Doctor, so we'll just have to follow him.

Fou!

Here we go! Here we go! Here we go! We start with golems, it seems!

This must be a test of our abilities. Come, Master.

Let's tear them apart!

Heheh, too easy! Too easy! Weaker than the weakest of insects.

Golems... So our opponent is a mage, is that right, Mephistopheles?

...Indeed! Well, basically.

...Basically...?

Now, now, don't worry about it! Let's go! Let's fight!

Now we have to set up the bombs. Beep, beep, beep!

Beginthe countdown!

And look, more enemies! Oh, how boring, just so boring.

Ye who possess no Command Spells, no arrogance, no pride, and no greed. My past Master!

As your Servant, I shall finish you off without any hesitation!

And now, time for our next bomb. Let's go, Master.

...Um, Master. Something...seems strange...

No, sorry. Either way, it's clear that the enemy is trying to kill us.

For now, let's cooperate with Mephistopheles.

Hehehehehe. The next bomb goes here.

And look, the enemy arrives! Just what you'd expect, right?

Another homunculus? That Alchemist never changes, does he?

Master, let us kill them! For justice! Hyahahaha!

Alchemist?

Two more bomb sites left to go. This right arm here is incredibly important to him, isn't it?

Now, then, shall I finish him off? Setting the bomb!

And now here comes the enemy!

...Whew! Mephistopheles, this is the last one, right?

...You can tell us now. The enemy was your former Master

Indeed! Indeed! Dr. Georg Faust!

He forged me, he raised me, he feared me! And these bombs are a present for him.

So he can live and die with a smile on his face. Now, time for the last battle!

So you're here, Mephistopheles.

Of course I am, Faust!

Oh, oh! What a pathetic joke you are! How comical and beautiful!

You're so ugly now I can't bear it!

Shut up, you failure of a project. It was foolish of me to grant you self-awareness.

And now you've even betrayed your master!

How could I not, when you're so boring?

You bastard...

Yes, it's because you're boring! You were such an ordinary mage!

You sacrificed others as if it was ordinary and yet reaped no results at all!

You pretended to chase distant, unseen dreams and yet wasted your time on your ordinary life!

How boring! What a boring mage you are!

So why should I be blamed for taking a boring, average mage and making him famous throughout history?

Poor little Mephistopheles just doesn't understand.

You... I'll kill you! I'll kill you, Mephistopheles!

Come on and try it. Now, my entertaining Master!

This is the last battle! Shove that bomb up his butt!

Gahh... Aggh! ...You...traitor!

Oh no no. I granted your wish to never be forgotten, did I not?

Without me, would Goethe ever have written Faust?

And without Faust, no one would have ever heard of you!

Hehehehehe! If you want someone to blame, blame Goethe! ..Bwah, ahahahahahaha!

Damn you! Damn you! My curse upon you! My curse upon you, Mephistopheles!

You're such a fool. A curse? Curses are like power-ups for me.

Now then. The bomb is set. And it's time to flip the switch.

My thanks for playing along with that entertainment. Master, as long as you entertain me

I will never betray you. Probably... Ahahahaha!

Fou!?

Good morning, Master. What's wrong? You're soaked with sweat.

Did you have a bad dream?

？！

...? What do you think happened, Fou?

Fou...?
