The sudden voice startled Sakura, Olga Marie, and Reines on the other side of the projection. While Sakura and Reines were in a heated discussion, Fujino had somehow used her distortion power to twist open the lock of Olga Marie's office door and entered.
Fujino, who had already stood behind everyone, threw a file onto Olga Marie's desk and said.
"Reines is right. Based on Jeanne's performance towards Reines yesterday and the similarity between the titles Dragon Queen and Dragon Witch, it can be confirmed that the one occupying France is a special individual of Jeanne. However, as for this information!"
Fujino looked playfully at the embarrassed Reines on the screen and said.
"This girl Reines sent this information directly to Olga Marie last night, so Touko and the others only just received it. Touko and the rest are currently modifying the plan. Also, let me remind you, all communications in Chaldea are under my surveillance! Don't forget to include me next time you discuss such things!"
The three of them looked at Fujino together and asked in confusion.
"Fujino, you plan to...!"
Fujino looked at their gazes, lowered her head to the communicator on her wrist, and gave a knowing smile.
"Of course, I'm joining your plan!"
Meanwhile, in a secret room in Chaldea, Touko, who was watching this scene through Fujino's communicator, shrugged helplessly and said to Aoko, Alice, True Moon, Black Princess, Tokiomi, and the others nearby.
"Hey, hey, hey, the little ones are issuing a challenge to us. Everyone, show some spirit and don't let the little ones outdo us!"
At this time, True Moon looked at Touko teasingly and said lazily.
"Hey, Touko, does the 'little ones' you mentioned include Rin?"

Over ten hours later, at the highest peak of the Spiritron World.
Before this highest peak of the Spiritron World shaped by Rin, Sakura, Fujino, and Olga Marie appeared so tiny. Even for the three of them, who possessed supernatural powers, it took a full ten-plus hours to climb this highest peak.
Olga Marie, who finally reached the summit, felt her legs go weak and knelt directly in the snow outside the Throne of Heroes, gasping for breath as she supported her body. Olga Marie's pale face and the steam rising from her body all indicated that she had reached her limit to climb this highest peak.
Sakura was also so exhausted that she sat directly in the snow, gasping for air, ignoring the presence of her 'love rival' Fujino.
Among the three, only Fujino still had energy left, standing at the edge of the peak with great interest, feeling the vastness of the entire Spiritron World.
"Exhausted already? It seems I need to find an opportunity to tell Master that physical training must be arranged for Chaldea!"
Olga Marie rolled her eyes hard at Fujino's sarcasm. If she hadn't been too exhausted to even speak, she would have definitely roasted Fujino for cheating with her Servant mode while making snide remarks.
Olga Marie had only managed to persevere and climb to the peak by relying purely on magical energy and sheer willpower.
As for Sakura, who was still able to speak, she had become emotionally detached due to activating her origin and didn't bother to pay Fujino any mind.
Seeing that no one was answering her, Fujino felt a bit bored. She glanced indifferently at Olga Marie and Sakura before turning around to admire the Throne of Heroes at the summit.
Magnificent and imposing—every human praise for architecture would not be misplaced when applied to the Throne of Heroes before Fujino's eyes. It was truly a building of ultimate beauty, grandeur, and majesty that the human mind could conceive.
Fujino slowly walked up the steps to the temple's entrance. She reached out and couldn't help but touch a pillar covered in exquisite carvings, feeling the shock brought by this pillar crafted from a single piece of mutton-fat jade.
One could imagine that if this weren't the Spiritron World, the entire solar system might not even yield enough mutton-fat jade of this size to create a pillar dozens of meters high.
"I say, have you two rested enough? We still have a long way to go!"
Sakura staggered to her feet and went to Olga Marie's side, supporting the exhausted girl as they walked up the steps to Fujino, showing her intent through action.
"Tch! Since you're ready, let's head out!"
With that, Fujino was the first to pass through the light membrane at the temple's entrance, leading Sakura and Olga Marie into the Throne of Heroes.
If the exterior of the Throne of Heroes appeared extremely luxurious and worthy of all the world's praise, then the interior was incomparably vast and empty.
The entire interior of the Throne of Heroes was paved with floor tiles made of an unknown white material, each one meter in diameter. These tiles constantly emitted a soft light, making the inside of the temple as bright as day and leaving Fujino, Sakura, and Olga Marie completely exposed within.
It was unclear how much time had passed. Fujino, Sakura, and Olga Marie felt as if they had been walking for years in this boundless interior, where there was nothing but emptiness.
After the three of them had been traveling with their heads down for an unknown amount of time, other objects finally appeared.
It was a magnificent divine throne placed on a raised platform. Rin's saint graph clone was currently sitting on the throne with her eyes closed, looking like a deity.
Around the base of the platform were a few chairs of various designs. Their owners did not seem to be present, but from the distinct styles, Fujino, Sakura, and Olga Marie could recognize most of their owners at a glance.
At this point, Sakura, who had already deactivated her origin, and Olga Marie, who had recovered much of her strength, couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
"Sister?" x2
Fujino stopped with a smile and turned to Sakura and Olga Marie.
"This is Master's saint graph clone. It serves as Master's divine aspect, remaining in the Spiritron World to channel the power of the Throne of Heroes and ensure the saint graph doesn't get damaged."
As she spoke, Fujino pointed to some cracks on the throne that were hard to notice without careful observation.
"Look at those cracks on the chair. It's precisely because of the world's current special circumstances that the throne Master fashioned with her Servant saint graph is becoming unfit for use. If Master were to fully mobilize the power of the Spiritron World and the Throne of Heroes to strengthen herself, this throne would probably collapse after just one use!"
"Um! Why is Elder Sister's clone ignoring us?"
Upon hearing Olga Marie's question, Fujino didn't answer immediately. Instead, she opened her communicator and projected Rin, who was currently in a Singularity.
"This communicator of mine is connected to Chaldea's communication host, so it can directly project everyone's situation in the Singularity. See, Master is currently maintaining her Servant state in the Singularity, so the clone must be here putting all its effort into maintaining the throne's condition. Naturally, it can't pay us any mind. Alright, let's go down!"
Olga Marie was stunned. She pointed to the Holy Grail casually tossed on the throne next to Rin's clone and asked in confusion.
"Didn't we come to get the Holy Grail? Isn't there one right next to Elder Sister's clone?"
"Huh? That's a special Holy Grail Elder Sister uses for emergencies. That grail isn't the omnipotent wishing machine we want, but an item generated by the Spiritron World itself to connect the Spiritron World with the core of the Throne of Heroes. It just exists in the form of a Holy Grail. Actually, I'd rather call it the Star Cup than a Holy Grail. The Holy Grail we need to take is further down!"
As she spoke, Fujino lightly tapped the floor with her foot. Soon, a downward staircase appeared. Kirei Kotomine, who had been missing from Chaldea, walked out from the stairs holding a lamp and looked at Fujino, Sakura, and Olga Marie in confusion.
"What are you all doing here?"
