"Eiji, co out and play with , just the two of us! You promised last night!"
As she spoke, Arcueid clung to Eiji's back like a koala, chattering loudly like a child.
"I know, I know! I'll play with you today, alright?"
"Yay!"
Arcueid devoured the breakfast at like a whirlwind sweeping through fallen leaves.
After finishing, she persistently clung to Eiji.
Helpless, Eiji had no choice but to go out alone with her.
Watching their departing figures, Morgan said nothing, only narrowing her eyes slightly.
"Hah!"
Several minutes later, Eiji reappeared in the living room.
"Eh, bro? Weren't you going on a date with Sister Arcueid?"
In the courtyard, Okita Souji, who was practicing swordsmanship, looked at him in shock.
"I used a clone!"
"...Isn't that unfair to Sister Arcueid?"
"Nonsense! It's still , just multitasking!"
As long as Arcueid didn't know, the Eiji with her was the real Eiji!
"Hmph, as expected."
Sitting on the sofa, Morgan revealed an unsurprised smile.
Compared to Arcueid, who disliked thinking things through, Morgan was clearly far more shrewd.
Sotis, she was even too shrewd!
"You didn't use another clone to go to Artoria, did you?"
Morgan narrowed her eyes, a aningful smile spreading across her face.
"Or perhaps, the you here is actually a clone too?"
"How could that be? I just want so peace and quiet right now!"
Eiji wore a pained expression.
Being stuck between them every day was truly exhausting!
Only I could handle this—anyone else would have been done for by now!
"But, speaking of which."
Eiji snatched the teacup in front of Morgan and took a large gulp.
"Cernunnos, the moons in the sky have increased again."
His expression turned serious.
At the ntion of this, Morgan's deanor also grew solemn.
Both looked out the window together.
Even though it was still dayti, the moons hanging at the edge of the sky remained strikingly visible.
Moreover.
There were now four moons in total—east, south, west, and north—clearly occupying the four corners of the sky!
"When the second moon appeared, cyberspace expanded significantly across Kijoko City; when the third moon appeared, observations showed cyberspace erging in large quantities worldwide. Now, with the fourth moon appearing..."
Morgan frowned deeply.
"Who knows what changes have occurred in the world now."
Cyberspace.
Just like the one BB created but was taken over by Roa, identical cyberspaces could now be found all over the world!
Though exact numbers were impossible to calculate, based on Eiji's dream inquiry with rlin, rlin's Clairvoyance monitored over ten thousand cyberspaces globally!
What was once only accessible by accident in Kijoko City had now spread across the entire world!
This was the impact of three moons appearing simultaneously in the sky on this Singularity!
And now, in this Singularity, a fourth moon has appeared!
"That appeared last night, right?"
"Yes, as always, we have no idea whose doing it is."
Morgan's expression was far from pleasant.
A solar system should only have one moon!
Having multiple moons in the sa solar system like this—and not just conceptual moons but genuine lunar satellites—could only an one thing!
Soone had moved the moon from a parallel world into this Singularity!
Just thinking about it was terrifying!
Even the Beasts could only roam around Earth at most, and might not even be capable of interfering with parallel worlds.
But now, soone had not only interfered with a parallel world but outright moved an entire moon here!
And without causing any impact on Earth or this Singularity!
This level of power alone could be said to have reached the realm of a planetary UO!
Not even the Counter Force could accomplish such a feat!
The fact that such a being had intervened in this UO tournant, possibly even as a participant, placed imnse pressure on Morgan.
To achieve her ideal Britain, she too harbored ambitions of becoming a planetary UO.
But this reality made Morgan restless.
"Don't worry, it's still uncertain whether it's man-made. Even if it is, there's no evidence that person will participate in the UO tournant."
Eiji comforted Morgan.
After all, would the position of a re Earth UO really attract the attention of soone capable of sending multiple moons to this Singularity?
"Besides, I'll help you too."
Eiji spoke with great sincerity.
His declaration eased so of Morgan's worries, and she managed a faint smile.
The current issue was determining what impact the appearance of the fourth moon had on this Singularity—this had to be investigated.
...
Eiji walked with an exceptionally cheerful stride to the top floor of the apartnt building and rang the doorbell.
With a "click," the door opened from inside.
"Mrs. Pen—"
Eiji was about to greet her when his expression suddenly changed.
Then, using Divine Footwork, he instantly vanished from the spot.
The golden-haired beauty, elegant as a noblewoman, peeked out from inside, glanced at the empty doorway, and closed the door with a puzzled expression.
"What's wrong, Artoria?"
Morgan, sitting on the living room sofa and sipping black tea, cast a questioning look at White Saber.
"Nothing, sister. Probably just a prank from a passerby."
Mrs. Pendragon returned to the living room, and the two sisters chatted idly.
anwhile.
"Damn it, I never expected that Ash would place a thought-form clone in Mrs. Pendragon's house!"
Eiji covered his face, utterly distraught.
"I didn't expect it either—that my elder sister would be so devoted to soone, and that soone would be you."
Mysterious Heroine X watched Eiji rolling around on her bed, clicking her tongue in displeasure.
"So, you ca here for the mature version of again?"
"Of course! I just confessed to White Saber. I should take advantage of her being shaken and win her over in one go. If I ease up now, wouldn't that waste this opportunity?"
Eiji's expression was resolute.
Back when he lay on the hospital bed, determined to beco the strongest in the world soday, his resolve had probably been about this intense.
"Mysterious Heroine X, could you do a favor? Can you call White Saber over?"
"...Are you out of your mind?"
"Make sure not to alert Caster, okay?"
"...Whatever. Since we're all essentially the sa person anyway, it doesn't matter."
Mysterious Heroine X sighed and shot a speechless glare at this shaless man.
"You're really getting away with too much!"
