Chapter 3. Dissatisfied Director

The streets of the city were quiet until the girl's scream was heard.

"Why do such things happen to me? Olga shouted, running away from the skeletons.

It is unclear who called these skeletons, but there was exactly one statement: They want to kill the fleeing girl.

Olga abruptly turned around and fired several bullets with magical power, namely the spell Gandr. That's just that it didn't scare the skeletons, but on the contrary they began to run even faster. After all, if a magician spends too much mana, he will get very tired and will no longer be able to run so fast.

Olga also understood this and began to run faster as well, but endurance is never infinite except for the undead.

After running a little, she stumbled over a rebar that was on the road.

And just as she wanted to buy herself time with a spell, a skeleton with a sword jumped down from above.

Olga had already closed her eyes waiting for death, but then a shield appeared that blocked the skeleton.

Then she heard another voice.

"Mash, you have the director's security on you. Emiya is on you to eliminate skeletons."

After these words, Archer projected his twin swords and burst into the thick of the skeletons. Not to mention the average magician for whom these skeletons do not pose a threat, for a servant these skeletons are like paper against a sharp knife.

After everything calmed down, Olga opened her eyes and saw three figures in front of her: Mash, an ordinary magician and a servant.

She didn't care about the magician and the servant, but she immediately turned to Mash.

"Mash your outfit really–"

As if realizing what the director was going to talk about, Mash had already started talking.

"Yes, I am a semi-servant who has signed a contract with an unknown servant. And at the moment my master is Victor"

Only after the words of Mash Olga turned her attention to the magician who was standing next to her.

"You're the 48th one I kicked out of the hall! Why did you become the master of all of them!?"

It is unclear whether out of anger that it was the worst candidate who became a master or because she has a good pedigree, but she will never be able to become a master, Olga vented her anger.

Victor, as a player, did not like her character, although he understood why she became so closed. It was only with Professor Lev that she felt safe. It was he who accompanied her when her father "suddenly" died.

Victor began to think whether it was worth doing a side task for the sake of the director, who behaves like a child in some situations.

"First of all, if you continue to behave like this, we will pretend that we have not seen you and move on. Secondly, call me by my first name since you have already become aware of this. Thirdly, tell me what will be the use of you now?"

Victor is not a rag that everyone can wipe their feet on. After all, he is now the only master in Chaldea. Without it, there can be no question of saving humanity. And the director can always be replaced. The same Gordolf, who at the beginning seemed like a freak, later became a full-fledged director of Chaldea.

Olga was shocked by such impudence and already wanted to yell at Victor, but the remnants of reason allowed her to restrain herself. Especially when she heard the word "benefit" from Victor.

Right. Right now she can't be of any use except to command people. But remembering Victor's past commands to his servants, he can quite cope on his own.

Olga fell into despondency. Mash, who was standing nearby, looked nervously at this situation. Although she hadn't known the director for a long time, she still didn't want her to disappear.

Archer pretended that this conversation did not apply to him.

Victor realized that he had gone a little too far with the conversation, decided to correct the situation a little.

"Good. We will leave all complaints after we solve this singularity. So are you coming with us, Director, or will you stay here?"

Olga nodded without hesitation. Now it will be impossible for her to survive alone.

Then Olga looked at Archer who was standing behind Victor and was about to ask a question, but Victor had already begun to explain what he was saying to Mash. Although not so detailed.

"So you're saying that you can summon servants with the help of saint quartz and make a contract with them and at the same time you have enough magic power to maintain them? Why the hell are you the lowest on the list of master candidates then?"

Olga was beside herself with indignation. Since you have already proved yourself as a master, why didn't you show your skills?

While Olga was thinking about the bracelet that Victor was wearing, he took the call.

A screen with Dr. Roman appeared. He briefly described the current situation in Chaldea. Olga was shocked that all 47 candidates for the master are in serious condition. But she quickly said what the Doctor needed to do to save their lives.

Then she looked at Victor again and exhaled. It's a good thing he didn't show himself in Chaldea otherwise he would have been along with all the other candidates.

Mash, in turn, was talking to Emiya about how a servant should behave on the battlefield. Don't look at how she intervened in the conflict between Lancer and Archer last time. She understands that as a servant she knows nothing. After all, unlike the servants, she half-servant did not receive any combat experience except for some simulations.

Victor was thinking whether to use the 30 saints quartz that he received as a gift from the system or not. After all, if he loses this servant, it will be a little troublesome.

"By the way, how do the rules of advantage of one class over another work here?"

[Yes it works. At the moment, when fighting against Berserkers, all your servants will deal 50% more damage. In the case of other classes, the modifier will be as set as usual. Also, as an advantage, these rules will be distributed only to your servants. That is, you will deal more damage with berserkers, and they will not. If an Archer class servant attacks a Saber class servant, the damage will also be increased and decreased according to the rules, but there will be no such advantage for an enemy servant.]

"Yes, it's a free advantage. Then I still need to summon a Caster class servant to teach me a little magic. As I said before, there are never many servants."

Then Victor opened the summoning menu and saw all the banners that took place in the game and they were all without a time limit.

"System, so I can summon even the top servants at the beginning of the game?"

[Yes, but I highly recommend not doing this. After all, the materials for powerful servants are also very difficult places for which you have to walk]

Victor understood the reason and he was so offended. He thought that he would immediately summon a Loli dragon that would destroy everything in its path, but its development would lag very far behind other servants because of the materials.

"By the way, I need a caster who does a good job with souls to help Olga. Eh, then we'll have to open the casters' banner"

After his speech, he began to perform the summoning ritual.

Olga looked curiously at the magic circle and thought about how to transfer this technology to the general use of Chaldea.

Mash was thinking which servant her master would call next.

Archer, who was looking around the neighborhood too, saw the summoning array. He only hoped that a servant who would not look like Lancer would come.

Finally the ritual was completed and out of 10 cards there were 9 CE and one SR servant caster. All CE were mapo tofu. One priest would definitely like it.

The light began to disappear from under the array and a slender figure of a girl came out of it. She had unusual ears that moved by themselves, she was dressed in Egyptian attire and held a staff.

"Servant rank Caster Nitocris has arrived at your call. I hope for your cooperation. That is, lower your head in front of the queen! It's so uncultured."

Victor was not surprised by her character and immediately accepted it.

"Greetings, Queen Nitocris. I am the master of Chaldea who called you. I hope for your favor and understanding. But we really need your help"

Nitocris, who had just been called here, was a little embarrassed by such polite treatment, but as a queen she quickly regained her appearance

"Since that's the case, I'll be happy to help you on your journey."

Then Victor made his request about Olga.

"Yes. This girl is already dead and now only the soul is in this world. There are not even say fragments of the soul that are trying to recreate the original soul. But as someone who has a lot of experience in working with souls, I have a solution to this problem."

Nitocris quietly began to recite a spell in the ancient Egyptian language that landed unnoticed on Olga.

"Now if someone forcibly subjects this soul to destruction, he will be cursed, and the soul itself will go to my mirror. Although the souls of the dead come out of there, but there is also a separate space where I will put her soul."

Victor gratefully looked at Nitocris and then told everyone that it was time to move on. He also did not forget to strengthen Nitocris.

Victor couldn't wait to see the damage modification rule in action.
