Chapter 5: Decisions and idle discussions
Olga appears shocked, "That- -Leff, he…? No, wait, hold it, stop."
Olga Marie starts looking like she is about to start hyper ventilating when she says, "There's only twenty left alive? Then what of the Masters? What happened to the coffins?!"
Dr. Roman takes a breath and says, "...all 46 are in critical condition. Our medical tools aren't enough. Even if we had people to help them, they're all-"
Olga Marie, "Don't joke with me, put them into cryofreeze at once! Worry about resuscitation later, your priority is to make sure they don't die!"
Dr. Roman appears shocked he didn't think of that, "Ah! That's right, coffins had that ability! I'll prepare at once!"
Mash throws in her two cents, "I'm surprised. Cryogenically freezing someone who has not given their consent is a criminal act. And yet you immediately decided on it. It's not just being responsible, it's the Chief prioritizing lives, isn't it?"
Olga looks at her like she is an idiot, "Isn't that obvious! You can explain it to them all you want afterwards, if they don't die! Besides, there's no way I could bear the responsibility of 46 peoples' lives…!"
Olga takes a moment to take in all that is going on then whispers, "Please, don't die…! …ah, jeez, if Leff were here, surely…!"
Dr. Roman looks uncomfortable being the bearer of unwelcome news when he says, "…That's the end of my report. Currently, Chaldea has lost 80% of its functionality. The remaining staff is doing all it can. I'm shifting available manpower to Rayshift repairs, maintaining Chaldea's and Shiva's current states."
Dr. Roman takes a moment to make sure everyone got all of that when he says, "As soon as external communications to the outside are restored, we will get supplies and fully repair Chaldea…"
Olga appreciates him doing what he can, "Good. I'd do the same in your position."
Olga then goes back to being moody, "…Haa. Romani Archaman. I don't like it, but I leave Chaldea to you until I get back. Your utmost priority is to repair the rayshifts."
Olga looks back to Ritsuka, Gudako, Fou, and Mash, "Those of us here in this city… will continue the investigation of Singularity Point F."
Dr. Roman looks surprised when he says, "WHAT?! Chief, you're not afraid to be at ground zero? Since when did you become so brave!?"
Olga looks straight at Dr. Roman while the rest of the group backs up and covers their ears when she says, "…Seriously, you don't know when to shut up. I'd really like to return immediately, but it going to take time until you finish the rayshift repairs. I know this city is filled with weak monsters, but I'll be okay if Demi-Servant Mash is here. To serve the very best under the circumstances, regardless of trouble or accident, is the Animusphere's pride."
Olga Marie then turns to look at the rest of the group, "Henceforth, Ritsuka, Gudako, and Mash Kyrielight are all formally acknowledged as investigators in Singularity Point F. Although inexperienced, the mission will be to discover the source of this singularity's existence. We will send a second team for analysis and removal after Chaldea is restored. You're okay with that, right?"
Gudako asks while looking weary, "Is it okay to just find the source…?"
Ritsuka looks on resolutely saying, "I'm okay with that."
Dr. Roman looks on with a look of hope, "Understood. I wish you luck, Chief. We will be able to communicate in short bursts. Do not hesitate to call if there is an emergency."
Olga looks back at him with a hint of mischief and mumbles, "...oh? Even if we sent an SOS, nobody would come save us anyway."
Dr. Roman looks confused and says, "Chief?'
Olga stops and shakes her head, "It's nothing. I'm cutting the connection. Go take care of the work you have over there."
Dr. Roman then interrupts before she can cut the connection, "Wait Chief! Don't you want them to try and summon a servant while there is a moment of peace?"
Olga looks at Dr. Roman like he is crazy, "Why are you suggesting that? You know all that ever seems to get summoned has been Black Keys besides the three previous servants."
Dr. Roman looks confidant when he says, "Well even if all you get are Black Keys then all of you will at least have weapons to defend yourselves from whatever is out there, and who knows since there are two Masters performing the summoning at the same time there may be something new that'll come out."
Olga thinks about it for a bit then decides that it may just be worth it to at least get some weapons to protect themselves, "Alright then Ritsuka and Gudako I need you both to come over here."
The two run up to her and she begins her explanation, "In order to summon a new servant you need 30 Saint Quartz if you even want a chance of summoning a servant. We still haven't perfected the process to summon any servant that we want or need since this ritual is based off the Heroic Spirit Summoning ritual. Unlike the Heroic Spirit Summoning ritual, we can perform this ritual as many times as needed so long as there are Saints Quartz to use. So far, we've been able to make it so every day we can create 30 Saint Quartz. in the heel of my shoe there is a compartment that has 15 Saint Quartz while in my other shoe there are 15 more."
Gudako speaks up and asks, "Wait a moment lady your telling me you keep your money in your shoes?"
Ritsuka then choses that moment to bonk her on the head and say with an exhausted look, "Gudako come on just be grateful that we may be able to summon some help."
Ritsuka immediately regrets doing that as Gudako slowly turns around with an evil grin on her face, "Ri-Tsu-Ka what did I tell you the last time you touched my hair without my permission?"
Ritsuka decides to might as well bite the metaphorical bullet, "You said, and I quote 'I will rip your arms off and use them as maces to whack you upside the head' but come on can you at least wait till after the Chief finishes her explanation?"
Gudako narrows her eyes then says, "Fine but you better believe that this is far from over."
Olga, Fou, Dr. Roman, and Mash just watch the bickering go back and forth when Mash speaks up, "How long have you two known each other Senpais?"
Gudako looks in her direction and narrows her eyes, "We've know each other since we were little, there are little to no secrets between us." She then leans in to whisper into Mash, Olga, and Dr. Roman's ears, "He is mine."
Mash and Olga start coughing from that unexpected bomb while Dr. Roman decided to just adopt a smirk on his face while he looks at Ritsuka, "Somebody is in the dog house."
Mash then tells Gudako, "I am not giving up just yet Senpai."
Olga takes a moment to collect herself and says, "He is way too young for me! Why would you even think I would like him?"
Gudako looks at them both and answers, "Most women who spend time with him eventually develop a crush. I'm just making it clear that I've staked first claim on him."
