Anchor, Stop Pretending, You're in Chaldea - Chapter 72

Ten minutes ago, at Chaldea.

When the massive target disappeared from the monitor, everyone in the control room cheered.

“The target has disappeared, and we’ve detected a reaction from the Holy Grail!”

“That’s great, it looks like they succeeded…”

Dr. Romani breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in his chair.

“Oh, Romani, even though you didn’t do anything, you’ve still worked hard.”

Da Vinci placed a cup of coffee in front of Dr. Romani.

“What do you mean I didn’t do anything?! I just couldn’t establish a connection over there!!!”

Dr. Romani said discontentedly.

“But this level of interference is really unexpected. Wasn’t this system personally overseen by the previous Director? It should have been fine.”

“Indeed, I don’t know why Bai Qiu and Mashu’s existence remains difficult to prove, but we don’t have any other Masters who can fight now, do we?”

Dr. Romani looked at the screen and spoke with a slightly brighter tone.

“And look, they’ve succeeded too, haven’t they? We just need to retrieve the Holy Grail and restore this Singularity.”

“Well, Romani, be careful. If you come back having eaten Mashu’s sesame buns, she’ll be angry.”

“Oh no, Da Vinci, please help me. I really didn’t mean to…”

Dr. Romani immediately sought help from Da Vinci.

“Why do I have to help you plead with Mashu-chan?”

Da Vinci had a mischievous expression on her face.

“Mashu-chan rarely gets angry, so I want to see what she looks like when she’s angry.”

“I really don’t want to see that… Please, Da Vinci-chan!”

Dr. Romani clasped his hands together and pleaded with Da Vinci.

“Hehe, what should I do?”

Just as Da Vinci was thinking about how to continue teasing Dr. Romani.

“Ding—!!!”

Suddenly, the alarm in the control room blared loudly!

Not only that, but CHALDEAS also began to show a fiery red state.

The people in the control room immediately became alert and looked at the data they were responsible for.

“CHALDEAS data is extremely unstable!!!”

“Report! Strong magical energy reactions detected around Bai Qiu and Mashu!!!”

“Quickly confirm the type.”

Dr. Romani and Da Vinci immediately put away their smiles and gave orders.

“Analysis complete, visualizing the data and transferring it to the main screen.”

When Dr. Romani saw the data on the main screen, he was stunned.

“This magical energy reaction… It’s neither a Servant nor a Phantasm species! Could this be the true ‘demonic’ reaction that legends speak of?!”

“The magical energy reaction is still rapidly increasing… Bai Qiu and Mashu might be in danger!”

Da Vinci frowned and stared at the screen in front of her.

“Quick, tell them to retreat! They might be facing an opponent they can’t handle!”

“Attempting to establish communication… No, connection failed!!!”

“Switch to other communication channels and continue trying to connect!!!”

Dr. Romani felt extremely anxious, but at this moment, there was nothing more he could do but watch the screen and pray in his heart.

“Please, Bai Qiu, Mashu, please be safe…”

…………..

Gilles de Rais’s body was instantly devoured by the opponent, along with the disappearance of the Holy Grail’s reaction.

“Senpai, be careful!!!”

Mashu, who sensed something was wrong, immediately shielded Bai Qiu with her shield, staring firmly at the remains of the previous giant sea monster.

Finally, the remaining body of the sea monster began to crumble, revealing the face of a man from inside.

“Mozart?!”

Bai Qiu quickly recognized the identity of this man.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

He was supposed to become their own Servant, summoned by the restraining force.

According to Jeanne Alter and Marshal Gilles, they should have already taken care of him, so why is he appearing here?

And this magical energy… Could it be that the Holy Grail is within him?!

A bad premonition emerged in Bai Qiu’s heart.

“Hey, what did you do to Gilles?!”

Jeanne Alter walked over, suppressing her anger.

“…I’m sorry.”

Mozart raised his head, opening his lifeless eyes.

“I… have failed…”

“Don’t say incomprehensible things! I’ll ask you one last time, where is Gilles?!!!”

Jeanne Alter swung her sword directly, stopping right in front of the man’s eyes.

“I’m sorry… You should escape quickly… It’s about to come out…”

“What?!”

Just as Jeanne Alter was about to continue questioning, the ground suddenly shook violently!!!

It seems that something is emerging from this scorched land.

“——————————？！”

Jeanne Alter immediately jumped back, but the collapse of the ground seemed to show no signs of stopping.

“Quick, this way!!!”

Bai Qiu shouted loudly towards Jeanne Alter, and then Jeanne Alter followed Bai Qiu and Mashu to retreat to a safe location.

“Master, Mashu!!!”

Soon, the voices of others came from behind.

Tarasque was seen carrying everyone from a distance.

“Sorry, I was delayed by those familiars for a bit.”

Johanna apologized.

“Hey, Master, what exactly happened here?!”

Mordred, sitting on Tarasque’s head, immediately asked Bai Qiu.

“No, I don’t know either.”

Bai Qiu’s gaze was fixed on the thing gradually manifesting in front.

But deep down, they had already sensed that something was about to happen.

“Senpai, this Magical Energy reaction is continuously increasing… It’s even stronger than when we faced the sea monster earlier!”

Mashu looked at the front in disbelief.

After the shaking stopped, a huge creature appeared before everyone’s eyes.

No, this couldn’t be called a creature at all…

It was an evil flesh pillar standing between heaven and earth!

It had a blood-red appearance as if soaked in blood, and countless pairs of eyes that kept rotating, staring intensely in this direction from every angle.

The enormous body was even larger than the sea monster summoned by Gilles de Rais earlier!!!

Just a glance at it would make people feel uncomfortable, even hallucinate.

“This posture… This can’t possibly be something that existed in the history of France. It’s a type we’ve never seen before!!!”

Mashu immediately issued a warning.

“Doctor? Can you hear us, Doctor?!”

“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle…”

The crackling sound from the communicator proved that they still couldn’t connect to Chaldea.

“We still can’t establish a smooth connection to Chaldea. What should we do now, Senpai?”

Mashu anxiously looked at Bai Qiu.

Meanwhile, Bai Qiu was inexplicably staring at the pillar in front of them.

Demon God Pillars.

Why are the Demon God Pillars appearing in the first chapter of France?!

And that Mozart actually turned into a Demon God Pillar, it’s truly unimaginable.

“Finally, I am liberated… My name is Amdusias, one of the 72 Demon God Pillars, here to destroy the seven foundations of humanity!”

The massive flesh pillar rooted in the land of France declared its origin as if declaring war.

“Come, puny humans! I shall show you the favor of the king!!!”
