Artoria Pendragon - Lancer Alter
Unwakeable Dream, Unending War
Mash:
Is this a–
Mash:
battlefield?
But from what era?
Dr. Roman:
Huh? What?
Where are you guys?
Fujimaru 1:
Right here.
Fujimaru 2:
It looks like some battlefield?
Dr. Roman:
You've got all your arms and legs, right?
Yeah, the both of you have proper vitals...
Mash:
I'm not sure what's going on, either.
Doctor, how's it going on your end?
Dr. Roman:
Let's see. According to my observations...
You haven't made it to the Rayshift coordinates.
Dr. Roman:
It looks like something interfered with the Rayshift process. Hmm...
Dr. Roman:
Well, not interfered...
If I were to phrase it properly–
Dr. Roman:
Like Fujimaru was pulled somewhere suddenly, willingly?
Fujimaru 1:
What? Really?
Fujimaru 2:
I really don't remember that.
Mash:
Wait a second, Senpai.
There's someone over there, at twelve o'clock.
Altria:
...Master?
Mash:
Lancer... Altria, right?
Senpai, did you summon her?
Altria:
I don't have time to talk.
They're coming.
Dr. Roman:
I'm picking up something moving towards you!
Judging by their momentum, they probably think you're enemies!
Mash:
Senpai!
Fujimaru 1:
No choice. Get ready for battle!
Mash:
Yes, Master! They're human troops without any magical energy reaction, so–
Altria:
Don't hold back.
Take them all down.
Mash:
B-But we're up against–
Altria:
...Here they come. Get ready.
--BATTLE--:
Mash:
Battle complete.
Hostile forces...have, uh, been eliminated? What's...
Altria:
This is my battlefield.
Though it might've been altered in this dream.
Altria:
I wanted to make use of my lance, as much as possible,
so I asked Master something I shouldn't have.
Fujimaru 1:
You did?
Fujimaru 2:
I don't remember.
Altria:
I got permission from you subconsciously.
Sorry about that.
Altria:
My special characteristics as a Servant are what brought this about, I imagine.
Dr. Roman:
Characteristics? Like a Reality Marble of some sort?
But she doesn't have that kind of Noble Phantasm...
Altria:
This inquiry bores me.
Now–
Altria:
Let's fight.
All the easy ones are done with.
Mash:
...A magical energy reading! I remember this feeling...
Dr. Roman:
I have something closely resembling its values on record!
No doubt about it, this has to be her other self!
Altria?:
—
Dr. Roman:
–There's another of her with a Holy Lance Rhongomyniad?! W-What's with double Rhongomyniads!?
Altria:
How interesting.
The only one good enough for me is myself.
Altria:
Let's go, Master.
At any rate, if we don't defeat her, you can't return.
Mash:
!?
Fujimaru 1:
Guess we have no choice.
Fujimaru 2:
Mash, get ready for battle!
Mash:
...Yes, Master.
Starting combat with the enemy Servant.
Altria:
It smells of battle. Yes. I can't be satisfied by just taking out weak opponents.
Altria:
A warrior that fights with all they have.
That is my desired opponent–
--BATTLE--:
Mash:
...W-We managed to take her out.
The battle is over...
Dr. Roman:
Whew... So it's over...
I worked up a sweat just watching.
Altria:
...
Mash:
Altria?
Altria:
...Hmm.
Fujimaru 1:
Maybe you wanted to fight by yourself?
Fujimaru 2:
Maybe we shouldn't have interfered?
Altria:
No–
I am your Servant, nothing more.
Altria:
My strength includes yours.
I don't really consider this fight one-vs-many and unfair.
Altria:
...Though questions remain, so I can't say that I'm satisfied. But that was good enough for now.
Altria:
In any event, let's get back to your fight.
Altria:
Give me a good battlefield to fight on,
Master.
