Ritsuka Fujimaru POV:

You know, I imagined being able to time travel would be fun as we would be able to view bygone eras or possible futures, but I did not want to have to run for my life against Monsters and skeletons

You know, I imagined being able to time travel would be fun as we would be able to view bygone eras or possible futures, but I did not want to have to run for my life against Monsters and skeletons.

In all honesty, I am scared as I could barely be considered a Magus. The only reason I'm even able to become a master is because I have enough magic circuits, and those magic circuits are decent enough to have a servant.

Even now, I'm trying to keep Mash from disappearing by feeding her more magical energy for her to use. I don't want to lose one of my first friends.

Oz is odd. He seemed perfectly approachable, and in all honesty, he was willing to lend me a hand at the entrance way, which was nice. He even brought me to the Infirmary, and he even said we were friends.

It's funny how he allows me to call him Oz like it's a way for him to say I'm with you. It's comforting, and as much as I appear to be inept or delusional, it's my coping mechanism, sadly.

People would say I'm a bit too boisterous or energetic, but that's just living life. You can't live it so downtrodden and contained. Life is meant to be enjoyed to be truly lived, and now we are in a burning City where everyone is dead, and all of my fellow Masters are stuck in their coffins, possibly frozen.

As we approached the city's port, the Director asked an interesting question: "Hey Mash, are you able to use the Noble Phantasm of your fused heroic spirit?"

The adorable pink-haired girl shakes her head and says, "Apparently, I am unsure of which heroic spirit I have fused with, and as such, I'm unable to use its special arts, such as its Noble Phantasm."

I then ask, "What is a Noble Phantasm Mash?" The Director sighs as Oz explains, "Well, my friend, a Noble Phantasm is essentially the culmination of a hero's legend and their great deeds, a kind of final weapon to be specific, but the only way one can use their Noble Phantasm is to understand their identity and their true name which I assume Mash does not."

Mash nods her head in agreement  as she states, "As such, I could be considered a failed servant or maybe just a capable friend who's slightly stronger now, and I do not have any leads on what the Noble Phantasm or the heroic spirit may be."

Oz then chimed in and patted her head. "It's all right, as we should be able to deduce which heroic spirit has fused with you based on your current weapon. Think about it: it's a cross-like giant shield that looks similar to a round table. That's a first clue."

The Director says in astonishment, "Oz, you are a genius who definitely narrows down which Noble Phantasm she could have, but sadly, my knowledge of individual servants is lacking as I was focusing on finishing the project."

Oz nods, smiling as he pats Mash on the back. "It's okay, we'll find out, and maybe just becoming a servant isn't enough to use a Noble Phantasm but to understand oneself to use it like a bird understanding how to fly on its own based on the fact that it is a bird it should come to you eventually as it doesn't seem like something that can be forced."
