There's something about this Singularity that makes memories an extremely potent energy source!
Oh no! No, no, no! No wonder they went after my brother then! I should have realized this ages ago!
No need for that! They'll never catch up to us at this pace!
One more step and victory is ours! I'll bring up the rear. The rest of you
That's right. Mash, of course. The Mash you've been talking to here is an imposter.
That feedback was...!
？！
All that just from touching the paper. Your true body didn't even have to pick it up.
That aside... Dammit! I can't believe he's still alive!
He's still just as sneaky and underhanded as ever! This is exactly why I hate him and his stupid dour face!
I can't even tell you how awful it was last time I was in London!
I can't believe Mash is...
？！
Hmph, yeah, I was surprised the Demi-Servant girl from Chaldea turned out to be an imposter, too.
Ugh, I'm so sick of two-faced backstabbers.
Still, at least now we know someone or something's messed with your memories.
I only got a brief glimpse at them, but even I could tell they involved someone you cared about a great deal.
...
？！
Leonardo da Vinci, the great Renaissance genius... But hey, another Servant showed up with her same memories soon after, right?
So then, all's well that ends well, right?
If this new Servant has all her memories, then she never really died, right?
No... She did.
？！
Why do you say that?
She said goodbye to us.
Farewell, Fujimaru! I know it's a lot to ask, but don't give up, and do your best!
...Yeah, I guess that's true. I can tell from your memories.
She said her farewells so you wouldn't spend too much time grieving.
Holmes told us the truth.
And so she is able to behave as though she is simply picking up where the former Da Vinci left off...
...even though she is a low-ranking Servant who only just awakened.
...Yeah, I guess that's true. I can tell from your memories.
Your detective friend is very kind. Merely behaving, huh.
So he didn't spare you the truth, even as he did his best to honor her wish that you not grieve for her more than necessary.
？！
True, knowing those memories and feeling that they're YOURS aren't quite the same.
You could say that's the difference between records and memories.
I understand. I'm my king's body double, after all. It's my job to take one person's place based on someone else's records.
Just because I'm around doesn't mean it's okay for the king to die. 'Course, that king tended to get upset when I suggested it was okay if I died instead.
Even if we're bonded through magecraft, we're not really the same person. Just because we have the same records doesn't make US the same.
Kind of like how two people reading the same book doesn't make them the same person.
Still...there's one important thing remaining.
There is? What is it?
？！
If all those memories your body's been collecting through the scraps of paper are forgeries, then you're probably his true memories.
That's why you're connected to him, and why you're able to summon those Shadow Servants.
...Maybe you're right.
？！
And if that's right, we'd better get you back to your body as quick as we can.
Memories also reside in the body and soul, so your true body should still recover even if you never make it back.
But, since you have a personality of your own now, you need to hurry up and reintegrate, or it'll get much harder.
...Well, at any rate, at least the door's open now.
Looks like we've reached the end. I can see the lead car up ahead now.
