Section Two: To France? (1/2)

Hehehe...

Hehehehehehehehe! Taaake that!

This is Chaldea.

Do you see Ushiwakamaru anywhere, Master?

？！

Hahaha! There's nothing but flatland as far as the eye can see here.

Wherever this is, it's definitely not Japan!

Looks like any other wide-open plain to me. Though come to think of it, where are we, anyway?

I'm looking into that right now. I'm not sure why, but it's taking much longer than usual to ascertain your coordinates...

It is clear we are not in Japan, but beyond that, I cannot say.

Tch... Hey, Medb.

Yes, Cú?

...Why're you dressed like that?

That Kiichi lady is Ushiwakamaru's teacher, right?

That's right. I taught Shana-oh everything she knows about fighting.

Then I'm going to be a teacher, too!

So, you think teachers usually dress...like that, huh?

Forget I asked. I don't give a shit. Just take care of those enemies over there.

Oho, so you noticed them too, did you? Not bad!

All right, if that's what you want.

But I'm counting on you and the other little men there to help me out, okay?

Look at us! What do you expect us to do like this!?

Whatever you can!

Well, if nothing else, I suppose we can be decoys. All right then, to battle!

You got it, Master. I'm going to whip these things into shape!

Well, I've already come this far! All right then, time to see how strong I am for yourself!

？！

Well, that was easy! Those things were pushovers!

Good, we're done here. Then let's go find Ushiwakamaru.

... ...

Cú? Why are you looking at that wyvern?

Did you just bite it!?

Wait, seriously? You actually eat wyverns?

At least cook it first. Trust me, you don't wanna eat raw meat.

(Chew, chew...) Peh! These things are from Gaul.

Aka France, huh. Oh Cú, you're such a gourmand!

More or less. I think it's got something to do with this new form.

No.

？！

Hmm? France is in Europe, right?

Why would Shana-oh run all the way there instead of back to her home in Japan?

I would've thought she'd make for Oushu, especially since she's all on her own.

How the hell should we know if you don't?

？！

Hey, Master. I'm gonna bite you if you don't quit looking at me like I'm a damn plush toy.

There, I've got the coordinates! Yes, you do seem to be in France now.

Well, what do you know.

I still don't see how we're gonna find her though, since we don't have a single lead.

Hahahaha!

You really think I can't roll with these punches? No way I'm giving up!

I mean, I guess we know these wild wyverns are French now, but that's it.

？！

Wait. I'm picking up Servant readings up ahead.

But...it looks like there's something off with their Spirit Origins.

Yup. And not in a way we've seen before.

Oh? I've never seen this kind of irregularity in the database before.

I don't suppose it's Lord Ushiwakamaru, is it?

No, it's not. That much, I can say for sure.

Well, it's not like we're gonna find out by hanging around here. Come on, let's get going!

Yeah, yeah. Ugh, this sucks.

I knew I should've slipped into my spirit form and run away when I had the chance...

Quit your whining. Let's go already.

Yeah, yeah, I'm coming, I'm coming!
