Unfolding the memo, I read the four words written there [
What is your name?] That is the only thing written.
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
Your name, huh? It might be meaningful inside the barrier, but it's an obvious question here.
Talk to Rin.
And in we go.
Music: First Chimeric Lunar Sea - Second Floor
Gain a level.
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
Don't you think it's unfair the terrain always suits our enemies?
Chat with Archer.
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
I doubt that school uniform is helping you much in this situation. What, are you warming yourself with willpower? I underestimated you.
Chat with Archer again.
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
Although we've obtained a Trigger, we can't coast. I never expected a
Reality Marble from that kid.
Get the Trigger.
One more level.
And leave.
Music: School III
Music: School IV

What do you say to asking those two sisters in the chapel about this? If they're smart enough to do Alterations of the Soul, they might know something about this as well.
I go spend my SP.
And get Archer's passive.
All it does is give one stack of Projection at the start of the fight, saving me from having to open with Pre-Projection before I can start Skill spamming.
Do the whole chain of events with the Jabberwocky note.
In.
Out.
Music: School III
Music: School IV
Get the decor.
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
Although I'd normally recommend against fighting unless necessary... But as you're an inexperienced Master, it's probably better to train in preparation for future battles. When you hit another milestone, I'll be sure to congratulate you again.
And also get an optional chat from Archer.
Talk to Alice.
And end the day.
Music: School III
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
...It's good to show respect for the dead, but not if it is going to get you killed. If you pity her, then liberate her from her pathetic fate.
Music: None
Music: Duel - Prelude to Confrontation
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
It's easier if they give you the cold shoulder. Then we can all ignore each others' feelings.
Music: Duel - Kill Or Be Killed
Video: Week 3 Elimination Battle (Archer ver.)
![](58-Rhyme.png)
No, it'll keep on going... This nightmare, forever.
![](59-AliceHappy.png)
Forever and ever, until we say so!
It's. Alice.
She did the exact same thing the last two times. She did the same thing this time.
Rin and Leo argue a bit.
Music: School III
Music: Duel of Fate
Let's just skip ahead to the Multimedia Room.
Music: Duel - Kill Or Be Killed

Archer quietly gazes at the girl in redRin Tohsaka. His voice is curiously free of its normal bite.
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
They appear equally matched, but the Master of the big guy is just doing the equivalent of button mashing. She keeps throwing his strength around, but it's no use. This will end up like David and Goliath. ...Well, just like in Go, one dumb mistake by Miss Red there could still lose her the game...
Rani starts her self-destruct.
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
No attack could counter that move it's enough to destroy them both. It can only be blocked head-on. ...But, can she do it? Rin Tohsaka's Servant is a Heroic Spirit made for one-on-one combat. Rani's Servant, meanwhile, is a living fortress. He could expel armies, but maybe not that spear. ...If we wait, two of our strongest opponents will eliminate each other without us lifting a finger.
![](4-HakunoF.png)
His mischievous grin twists into a frown when he looks at me.
![](4-HakunoF.png)
I didn't realize I was telegraphing my emotions. But, more importantly, what did my Servant just say? Could there be some way to save them? It sounds like there might be, but Archer wasn't enthusiastic.
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
...Yeah. There's something you can do. Look at your left hand.
![](4-HakunoF.png)
He points at my
Command Seals.
![](5-Archer_Normal.png)
But, I would be teleporting into a sealed area. That can't happen without the help of a
Command Seal.
![](4-HakunoF.png)
So, it's actually impossible. Still,
Command Seals exist to make miracles happen...
![](78-Archer_Yelling.png)
So, you'd end up using two
Command Seals to save an enemy... Still sure you want to do it?
Archer in particular gets unique room scenes with F!Hakuno when on the Rin route, so that's why Nero got Rani.
Music: Battle - Fourth Chimeric Lunar Sea
![](78-Archer_Yelling.png)
Use your Command Seal to keep us victorious until the SE.RA.PH's forced termination activates!
No.
The use of three wildcard commands if you don't use a Command Seal is probably meant to put you in a no-win state and force you to burn a second Command Seal, but lol skills.
Just keep the fact that we still have two Command Seals left in the back of your mind for now.
![](78-Archer_Yelling.png)
Damnit, we'll be caught in it...! She's going to melt the Arena down before the SE.RA.PH logs us out!
Next time: We clown around a bit.
