Otto Apocalypse, also known as the head of the organisation named Schicksal, were minding his own research of the item that has been given to him personally by Kadoya Tsukasa himself.

This was the first time he had ever seen an object in the form of a pocket watch, storing power equivalent to thousands of Valkyries personal.

Don't get it wrong, tho. His Divine Key already served his purpose, but adding one more wouldn't hurt.

"Lord Otto." His trusty Maid said while pouring a glass of tea next to him. "This new power you hold.... Is it true it would benefit your goal?"

"Oh dear Rita." He gave her the Ridewatch, which she took with odd look. "What do you feel when it touches your skin?"

She grasped her fingers through. Trying to get the feel every edges and curves, she's left with uncertainty.

Despite that she knows this item she hold bares tremendous power, one that could turn the tide of many battles.

"I do not know. But certainly this so called Ridewatch have hidden secrets inside."

"Ahh, perfect answer." A box of shining gold appeared from Otto's palm. He took the Ridewatch back and to Rita's surprise, it was absorbed by the box, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Otto showed a crafty expression. Rita could only reply with a smile, like a servant to her master when he found something interesting worthy of attention.

"This is where the fun begins."

They say when you wake up from a long sleep, you will have a hard time distinguishing between reality and dream. Some claim that dreams are drawn from the pieces of the real world and woven together.

It was there that Y/n opened his eyes and was greeted by a white ceiling that he recognized and didn't recognize at the same time. Lying on a hospital bed, with an IV tube injected into his left arm, and a heart monitor on a small cupboard to the side.

Y/n tried to sit up but his whole body felt weak like wet paper. The door to the room opened with Tesla carrying a tray of food and drinks.

"Oh? Finally risen from the dead, are we?" Tesla came and put the tray on an empty table not far from Y/n.

"What... Happened?" With a groggy voice Y/n asked.

"You don't remember? Wow. Looks like your head was beaten so hard that you forgot your memory." Tesla took a bowl from the tray. With the provided spoon, she took a spoonful of porridge and fed Y/n.

"Eat."

"What are you--"

"J-Just eat it already, damnit!" Tesla thrust out the spoon, which Y/n had no choice but to open his mouth and take a full mouthful.

"How is it?" Tesla asked, waiting for an answer from Y/n who was chewing the porridge before swallowing. "Well....?"

"It's good. Thanks, Tesla. That was actually pretty delicious." With a warm smile, Y/n said.

Tesla cast her gaze to the side, hiding the red cheeks from Y/n's eyes before he knew it. The man could only tilt his head in confusion. Tesla gave him another spoonful of gruel, though her embarrassment won her over.

This process continues until the bowl is finally empty. Tesla rushed out of the treatment room, leaving Y/n still in the process of trying to figure out why she was behaving like that.

Dense. That's all that needs to be said.
