So it's been like a really long time since I've stop writing fanfics due to my class, disinterests of everything with the focus more on reading fics than writing them and many other issues with life...and overwatch you can't forgot overwatch, #BestGameOfTheYear2016. That and well... I find myself very inadequate extremely so when reading back my old work...the less said about the quality the better. So I started reading other fics on this site and most are on the crossover side of things. *sigh* when you look at the people at the top in this site and those on any other fanfic sites, it's not that hard to see all your works as garbage... Well anyway I've taken enough out of your time with my rambling, I wanted to get back in the writing fics on doing something I knew 'well' enough of both Nasuverse and DXD-verse. The update will probably be slow so sorry about that and on the subject of my other stories but sorry I just can't find it in my heart to continue the other fanfics I made so they are all going to be discontinued. But enough about that...

Prologue: Blade of Humanity
Trace on.
Two words. Two simple words that would reach the Gates of the Greatest heaven. For these two words would signal the beginning of the delusions of an unobtainable dream.
An ungodly loud noise of Static echoed out as a long dead hammer started striking on a rusted anvil while tremors can be felt throughout this world...
I am the Bone of my Sword. / This Body is made of Swords.
On a hill of ash covered swords, there lays a figure laying on it's back motionless before it slowly rose itself from the sleep of death.
Steel is My Body and Fire is My Blood. / Iron is My Blood and Glass is My Heart.
As the figure started to stand, the ground continues to shift as if signaling a reawakening.
I Have Created Over a Thousand Blades. / I have crossed a thousand battlefields.
The figure's pure white hair is blowing wind as his grey eyes open.
Unknown to Death. / Unaware of Loss.
The man sighed as he slowly stood up while the ashes shook off his body as his eyes of steel gaze across this world.
Nor Known to Life. / Nor Aware of Gain.
How Long has it been since his legend ended...? How long has it been since he lost them...?
Having Withstood Pain to Create Many Weapons. / Withstood Pain to Create Weapons, Waiting for One's Arrival.
The man slowly turn his gaze to the skies as he reaches out his hand and touches the ashes around him.
Yet those hands will never hold anything. / I have no regrets. This is the only path.
The world was clouded in ash, ash carried swords unending, ash covered gears in the dark sky as an almost calming breeze sweeping across the endless panes of swords. A faint smile appear on the figure's face as if this place was just right for him.
So as I pray... / My Whole life was...
After all this figure...no this MAN knew that this world covered in unending ashes filled with endless swords better than anyone, how could he not when it was HIS world.
Once long ago, this world was beautiful, vibrant and filled with hope as naivety benefiting it's beauty.
Yes, it was never meant to be pure as it was built on weapons of death but in this steel world any warrior can see it's beauty.
It's maker smiling with the hope of a better tomorrow with each passing day as in his heart he knew with this world, he could finally fulfill his promise so long ago that he would be a hero.
There wouldn't be any price too small to pay, For HE was sword.
To Slay all the world's evil was nothing compared to that distant utopia of salvation.
HIS Dreams would reach the heavens, HIS will became unbreakable steel.
The Scope of HIS ideals were UNLIMITED.
HIS gaze towards the future as shape as a BLADE
HIS Legend would continue to spread across time itself through his WORKS
What was his name, you ask?
It was Shirou Emiya, the name that resonated with the word 'Ally of Justice' for he was the Blade of humanity that would slay all of humanity's enemies and would be the shield that shoulder the weight of the world and at the end he was to be ashes that humanity would rise from to begin anew.
How long has it been since the time he last awoke... how long has he been asleep within his world after the end...that was what he thought as his mind trailed off reminiscing in memories of long ago as his eyes scan through is world of blacken ash and scattered swords.
He was Reborn Through Hell's Fire
Created from Nothingness
From the earliest of his memories, all he knew was fire. He remembered listening to the pleads of all he left behind in that HELL. In the fire he lost everything, His emotions, his memories. At the end he lost what it meant to be human for the boy he was died that day, but it was because of that HELL that he would become something greater for he was reborn that day as something else, something beyond human.
He was Saved by a Broken Man
Repurposed by the Hands of Men
When there was truly nothing left to lose of the boy that he was at the time, he simply laid there and waited for death as hope was the last thing to die within him. But fate would intervene that day as a broken man who helped caused this HELL was trying his hardest to find survivor, so as to made sure that his entire life was not a lie and meaningless. When he found the boy that day, he gave the boy the brightest smile that the boy would remember to the end of his days as the man gave the boy the first of the gift that would help create his legend, the purpose and the want to see a smile like his and The Dream of The Everdistant Utopia.
He was Given the Ideal of Justice
Shaped by a Dream of Justice
The boy would live on trying to relearn his humanity following the path of his adopted father never knowing until he was dead that he helped SHAPE his life. On the day that the man, Kiritsugu Emiya died he would give the ideal of justice to his son never truly knowing what he truly set in motion with his words alone on that blissful moonlit night.
He would train from that Day on, Chasing the promise of happiness
Sharpen by the Humbly Ordinary Labors of Humanity
The boy was now a teenage, still working hard for the happiness of others no matter what and training himself to carry on his father's dream, it was a tragedy when Fate shattered that dream in the distant future but for now he would continue to live and eventually the blood, sweat and tears of his labor would come to fruition and be the foundation of his world.
He would be forced to fight in the hellish War that started it all
Tempered by the Strength of Legends
The Teen would encounter his first taste of the hell that was war on a seemingly ordinary day of his then normal life. He was slayed by a man in blue with a demonic spear but was saved by twin tailed girl that would that became his friend that helped save his soul. He would summon the servant that would teach him to fight on no matter what and her path of kingship that created one of humanity's greatest kingdom. He would meet with a priest that was so eerily similar to him for the priest was another birthed with emptiness. He would face his father's sin in the form of his sister that wanted his death in place of his dead father and the mad servant of one of humanity's greatest legends that would carry out her will. He would finally know the true pain of the purple haired girl that would hold a unshakeable place within his heart and the rage he felt against the brother he brutally killed for his crimes against her.
He would Gaze at Hell itself, finally learning the truth of his impossible Ideal
Hammered by Harsh Reality of the World
The Hell of war would escalate as a shadow started devouring all things leaving behind curses similar to that which birth the teen. He couldn't save anyone no matter how much he tried, in the end all that he could do was watch as more die before him. It was during this stage of the war did the hero stopped being a boy and truly became a man for he saw war.
He Witness the Deaths of Heroes, learning that Even Legends Die
Shaken at the fragile of Humanity
He watched as the some of the greatest of legend die one by one as he learned that no matter how great or powerful, Death comes for all. The Lancer died fighting shadows having regretted that he never did get a good fight out of the war and having fail his first master. The Caster died with tears in her eyes as she failed to gain her wish of a second chance as she died with her master. The Archer died when he protected his master and his past self from the Curse of All the World's Evil, having giving his final gift to assist the others. The Berserker died when he was cut down by the rising hero while he had been corrupted by the blackness of man, having accepted defeat he asked the hero to protect his mistress. The Fake Assassin died when he was died by the shade having lemented having never fought the battle he wanted. The True Assassin died when he was consumed by Darkness, being content that he fulfilled his duties in this hellish war.
He Saw the Birth of All the World's Evil, Once More Does the World Burns with the Evils of Man
Breaking Against the Evils of Mankind
In the end When all the legends fell, Only He was left standing in the midst of the cave that hold the greater grail with the slain corpse of his most beloved sword of victory. He fought against the priest filled with emptiness and won, for it he declared that the man would have his wish granted for he was the winner of this terrible war. He was no winner...he didn't win anything for he saw the All Evils of Man that day, he gazed at it even...and it gaze back wanting back the piece that was left in him and to be finally set free to drown humanity in their sins.
He Then Knew Truest Despair; Blackening his World
Losing Everything, Achieving Nothing
At the end what was all of this worth, the man had to wonder. Was it truly worth all this death...He lost many things at the end, the two sisters reunited in death as they lay in each others arms as he watch them die, the snow fairy used herself to end the madness of the war having used her wish to save her brother. He had promised to save them, To save everyone... How many have died for him to live? Too many was his quick answer. He would trade his life for even a single one of them. The grail would not give his that reprieve for the evil within would return once again, this it swears.
He was saved once more like on the day of his birth, only this time it was by an old man of jewels
Reforged by the 2nd law, Kaleidoscope; Gaining Knowledge of Other Worlds
As the war draw to a close, only he was left standing in the midst of corpses in this HELL. The Gates of Heaven were shut close once more. The man could only howl at the world for everything that he lost as he slowly succumb to his wounds and falls unconscious. He would be save that day by the old man of jewels, Kischur Zelretch Schweinorg. The old man would help nurse him back to health as he deals with the aftermath of the holy grail war. The old man would take him under his teachings and become one of his apprentice. He would use the knowledge he gains from the old man to add to his legend.
Assisted by Others, Slowly Does He gain Back his Humanity Once More
Mending the Shattered Heart of Glass
His knowledge of all things only progress more over the years as he was thrown into other world by the whims of the trolling old man as both his master and the Golden-haired girl slowly heal his shatter heart. He would assist any who needed it, be it the old master of The King of Conquerors and his diligent students who helped him within the Clock Tower or Enforcers and Executors during their hunts of those that would harm others with their work. He would eventually meet the daughter of the fake priest, finding their personality comparable to one another as she apologized for her father's actions. Eventually he would make friends with her and several other members of the church including a certain blue haired Burial Agent. He would slowly over the years recover his humanity once more as he started to feel almost human again.
He still continues to reach for Salvation, No Matter The Cost
Chasing after The 3rd Law, Heaven's Feel; Striving for a Chance at Redemption
When the 6th Holy Grail War Happened. The man entered the war once more, determined to finally end it's existence. He once more summoned the once and future king that was still shaken by the taint of the grail but thankful to be summoned once more by the man that she respected. So they fought and fought and fought and fought, fighting to slay the demonic god hidden behind Heaven's light.
He was Blinded by What He was After, ill Prepared for the Cost
Gaining the Grail, The Key to Heaven's Gates; Bringing The Fall of Humanity
When they finally reached the greater grail. They faced the demon that haunted their dreams, the one that hold the all the evils of man within him, Angra Mainyu the one falsely proclaimed as the god of darkness when he was but an ordinary man who become the vessel of evil. They battled together against the horde of darkness, fighting valiantly to slay him and the corrupt grail. Saber sacrificed herself so that the man could fight the Avenger one on one. He did and seemly won.
At the end, when all obstacles were eliminated and the lives of those that opposed him slain, with the grail waiting for his wish. He faltered at Heaven's light and truly wondered... what was it that he wanted but after all that had happened was it truly worth it. In the end even he didn't know what it was for anymore, was it to bring back the family that he lost in the 5th war, to save all the lives that were lost in these wars or perhaps was it for a way to find the salvation that he was seeking.
But no matter what that wish was, the black mud was born once more and it seek to consumed all once more as even when slain, as even in death did Angra Mainyu's hatred of mankind consumed even the wish itself and so mark the birth of the Demon that Corrupts All.
Evil was Reborn into the Era of Man, and so Began the End of this Age
The Evils of mankind shall Consuming all life
To this day, he didn't know why the world wasn't instantly consumed by the wish of All the world's Evil. Be it his wish or that of the remnant of the original grail that holds the spirit of those created in the image of the Holy Maiden of Winter. But humanity was spared that day, if only for a moment as the black mud of Angra Mainyu consumed all in it's path and corrupting anything that lived. Fuyuki would be his birthplace and the world shall meet its end as the evils of man advance across the world.
Against All the World's Evil, the Moonlit World Stood Together
United We Stand, Divided We Fall
In the years to come, it would truly test the man's patience and remaining sanity as Evil started to consumed all. Countless were sent to their death trying to stop its flow on his orders as he ascended the ladder within the moonlit world as all factions assisted to stop the end of all life. The Clocktower would focus on ways to slay Angra mainyu while keeping the secrets of the moonlit world hidden. Those of the Giant's pit released their sealed weapons that could cause the end of this world to slay a being that would end humanity and the world. The Church mobilized their forces and cooperated with the Mage's Association for the first time in millenniums, even Several notable Dead Apostles Ancestor assisted in Angra Mainyu mutually destruction fearing their continued existence if the demon was not properly stop.
Eventually There was No Way to Conceal Magics Forever, and Such He Forged a Better World for all
Being the Bridge to the Moonlit World
It was only a matter of time before the secrets of the moonlit world's existence were realized when black muck attacked major cities, even when the enforcers tried to conceal their existence there was no way that the enormous loss of life could be ignored by anyone in the world. There were tension and conflict between the two different worlds with the others blaming the moonlit world for the deaths and the coming extinction while the individuals of the moonlit world would be their prideful selves, angering them further. It was only after a short period of time before their conflicts grew, clashes between the two would blow over in the next few years before the man stepped up as being one of the only sorcerer left, with his authority he bridged the gap between the two worlds and for it he was hailed as the one who brought a new age of a united humanity with both magics and Technology at their side to fight against the approaching darkness.
So He Continue Striving on, Trying to Make up for His Mistakes for This World
Becoming the Blade of Humanity; Hero of Mankind
There were times that the man himself went out to the fields with a team of Enforcers he trusts fighting against Angra Mainyu's creations, trying to save as many as he could against the might of Evil. Holy weapons and anti-demon noble phantasm he used against the false god trying to fight back the tide of black mud that corrupts all. With these battles came either loss or victory as many died fighting while saving many others. His renown on the field became almost legendary as with him came victory for any that ran from the beasts of evil as the man fought with a ferocity of a hero to save lives. And so, it was on fields of blacked ash and broken swords did the legend grew greater.
Even Now He Couldn't Save Everyone, So He Save Those That Could Carry on
Saving the Few with Potential and Leaving the Average Many Behind
There were times when he couldn't save everyone, he knew that. He knew that very well from both his counter guardian self and his father for this was no fairy tale, you couldn't save everyone. So he tried to save as many as he could, trying his hardest to be the hero that the world thought they knew him as. The countless were dying while he could only save the few. So he saved the ones that could become like him, with the potential to change everything and with them he honors his father's legacy, teaching them the ways of a Magus Killer.
In the end, He succeeded to slay the Enemy of Humanity but at the cost of his life
Ending the Nightmare; Finally Serving his purpose
It would be after years of fighting later that an opportunity presented itself, for the grail once more after so many years call forth it's champions to be grant a wish. That day would be marked down in history as the beginning of end for the Demon Lord for that day was the beginning of the last war of the holy grail, The Apocrypha War. By that point both humanity and the earth itself were nearing it's last legs. The cursed muck of Angra Mainyu had almost spread completely across the globe covering the world with the evils of man. This opportunity may had been the last hope of the world for if they didn't stop Avenger and the Black Grail, there may not be anything left. With the help of the united world and the cooperation of both ALAYA and GAIA, They cleared the way so that the chosen few could face the Monster of Mankind. It was a costly fight for those that helped clear the way to the dark heart of evil but in the end it was worth it for the millions of lives that sacrificed themselves on that battle would pave the way for billions more to live. The 7 chosen and their mentor would face against the heart of Demon god himself with his corrupt servants. There were costs, for there were always costs in war but in the end it was the Mentor of Heroes and the Demon of the Greatest Evil that fought the final battle that day for this story began with them and so it was that it would end with them. When the Demon was slain by the Hero's Jeweled Saber of the Second Law, kaleidoscope so too did the hero die from the curses of evils that had be unleash on him, it's curses pierced his heart in a similar fashion to that of curses of Gae Bolg. The Demon died that day cursing the name of Shirou Emiya as his hatred of humanity shifted away to that of the Hero himself. The Hero died that day content that he had finally ended the demon and that both humanity and the world would continue onward to the future.
He was revered as Humanity's Savior as the world moved on into a better age, The Age of Unification
His Legend Spread across time itself; Reaching the Throne of the Highest Heaven
The World and those the inhabit it moved now after that fateful day, the grail that was won after the battle was properly cleansed and used to repair much of the damage that was done years before. For that first time since that dawn of man, both mankind and those of the Earth Mother's children worked together hand in hand for a better and brighter future. As for the Hero, his teachings continue on long after he passed. His students would take up his name in honor of him, thus the Emiya Clan would continue on long after the death of both the hero and the father that started him on his path. Even when humanity started to lose it's memory of him, what he represent would forever ingrain into them as the triumph hero that sacrifice himself for something greater. For through His Action: The man became a hero. Through Death: The hero becomes a legend. Through Time: The legend becomes a myth. And by learning from the myth, men take action.
And Such was the Life of the Shirou Emiya, The Savior of Mankind.
True End
The man smiled sadly, Yes that was what happened. As he sits on the hill of swords thinking of his past he thought to himself wondering if perhaps that Sakura and the others were happy that he completed their wish as best as he could. He continue smiling as if answering to himself, probably he thought.
He knew that the only reason that he awoke now of all times was that someone was calling for him but it simply hasn't reached him personally yet, most of those that reside in the Throne would probably have a similar feeling of awareness if they are being summoned. As most of the ones that go into a long sleep like he does were does that just wanted to be left alone or knew that they would probably never be called for. For the ones that are called would more often than not be able to read through their others selves that visit the different worlds, well that or just wander around the Throne or Akasha itself if they aren't caught by the Guardians or the Watchers. Another Fact was that for him and other alternates version of heroes in the throne, it was mostly the most well known version of stories that are picked to be summon like for example Counter Guardian EMIYA while those that only appear on a single world would be shelved off somewhere in Akasha as unless there specify call for YOU, then your more prominent and remembered version would be summoned.
So imagine his surprised when he awoke as if called for when he was sure to sleep onward until the end of time after watching the conclusion of his legend using the Second Law, Kaleidoscope. After all there were no longer any need of him after his death and the end of the grail wars, for the humanity in his world would progress forward never again needing the Greater Grail and with it access to the Throne of Heaven which he lays behind.
So he waited and waited trying to find the source, signing to himself knowing that if only Hōseki* wasn't asleep then perhaps he could find it faster as like his master before him the powers of the Second Magic was a fickle thing and with his battle against that Demon, his beloved Jeweled Saber was forced into a slumber, never to awake again no matter how hard he tries. if only he could contact Zelretch somehow, prehaps then maybe...
'Well no matter.' he thought as he as he straightens up as focusing on the trail of prana trying to reach him, if someone truly needed him then he would probably be summoned at the right time.
So he did what he allows have, he waited for the time when his swords were needed once more.
So far this has been a really bad day in Rias Gremory's opinion, it all started when she woke up late with messy hair after staying up all night yesterday watching anime, she got scolded for it by both her mother and sister in law after which both Grayfia and her big brother Sirzech had to go for some 'emergency' meeting or something while her parent went out for something or other like they always do. It was one of the few times she was completely alone in her home without anybody telling her what to do so she did what any child would do and had fun like eating junk food and watching anime and playing around and watching anime you know standard things. Or at least that was what she planned to do before explosions rocked her home with intruder coming in and trying to kidnap her or something so yeah pretty bad day.
Rias is currently running for her life right now with the speed she could muster as an extremely young (by their standards) devil girl away from the bad men chasing after her. She tried using her family's power of destruction but it was only barely slowing the men down as they kept on dodging her attacks.
Unfortunately it was only a matter of time before one of the men finally caught her as she was grabbed and thrown out of her own home and into the forest in the back.
As she tries slowly get up while coughing out some blood (which thankfully for her being a devil and all didn't leave any permanent damage or marks on her) and breathing heavily from all the running, she sees like 10ish devils surrounding her.
"Well you were quite a tough bitch to catch, aren't you Gremory." One of the men said while grinning in front of her
She continuing trying to regain her breath as well as some of her energy as she grins a little and shout out "Well isn't grand that the old maou faction would send 10 grown men to attack a little girl, o how the mighty have fallen." She jeered while putting up a brave face, knowing that she probably on her last rope
"Quiet you Pathetic little Girl!" one of men enraged by her comment fire something she couldn't identify as she puts up a defensive magical shield to protect herself, unfortunately it was easily destroyed as a blast of magical energy sends her against a tree trunk breaking it slightly
She knew without a doubt now that some of bones were broken and her muscles torn as pain erupt all over her. The agents of the old maou faction were moving closer to her as they started say out something that she couldn't make out due to the ringing in her ears.
Even though she can't hear her but she knew that they were probably sprouting out their propaganda ways of how they were greater than the other factions and that they should continue the war and blar, blar, blar. She knew from the lesson from her family that if the old maous had their way, the devil race would go extinct.
Rias was suddenly hoisted up into the air by what looks like the leader of this group of devil as he started to crush her wind pipe, she couldn't breathe. She frantically tried to escape his grip but to no avail.
She could feel her life slipping away as her head felt so light as her movement started to lose it's energy.
"Don't blame us for this, Gremory." The leader said as the light in her eyes started to dime ever so slightly as the lack of oxygen started to catch up to her
"If you want to blame anyone then blame your brother, that damned false Lucifer." The leader said with a grin, knowing the consequences that would come from her death after all Sirzech Gremory would go on a cruscade to kill any that were even remotely responsible for her death.
As for Rias herself, She simply didn't want to die. The girl barely out of her childhood that was Rias Gremory had tears raining down from her face because she simply didn't want to have her life end yet for she hasn't lived enough for a human let alone a devil. She wanted to someone anyone to save, she pleaded in her heart as she unknowingly reach out with her last bits of mana for something, anything really as a simple red jewel hangs loosely from her chest.
It was a simply thing really, fine crafted pendant, it was a gift from her older brother that she has worn ever since he gave it to her. when she asked where he had gotten it, he told her it was a special gift from an old magician that he met in his youth saying that it would help both him and her later on in life. For it was a gem filled with an unknown magic.
As her mana reached out in the pendant, it glowed with an unholy light as it forcefully downs to the ground as a magic circle quickly forms with the gem in the center.
The Leader promptly drops the Gremory girl as an uneasy presence started emanating from the circle as he and his group started to move away from the circle as it begins to pulsed like a heartbeat.
"What's this!" one of his men shouted as they felt something started to emerge from the circle.
Rias however started to feel the circle draining her remaining energy as she felt something started to link itself with her soul, something that felt like a magical contract.
In their panic, the leader quickly launched an attack at the dying girl hoping to fulfill his mission but alas even that fail as a powerful wave of energy quickly erupted from the gem as it quickly shatters having it's purpose fulfill as the energy waves over everything in the area as all beings with even a hint of sensing capability could feel that powers of something otherworldly.
"AAHHH!" the group of devils shouted out as they are all blasted away from the down girl and the slowly fading circle.
Having been able to catch her breath, Rias with a wheeze and cough started to drank in the air and felt her lungs take in the oxygen from the air. Her breathing becoming easier she take in her surroundings with the place was a mess.
Only after did she felt something, an almost holy aura washed over her, panicking her before calming down when she realized that it wasn't hurting her and was actually easing her pain. While the devil that recovered from the blast began shivering in fear as the aura started to weaken them as if hurting them, punishing them for their deeds as all took note of the figure standing where the magic circle was.
The figure was most certainly a man with white hair and tanned skin, he was dressed in some kind of modern body armor with a blueish white shroud covered over him with a finely crafted sword of Jewels on his back, his gray eyes looking over his surrounding as he turns to face her new master.
"Having Answer your Call from the Throne of Legends." The man said with a calm tone as he gazing into the young red haired girl that called him
"I ask of you, Are you my master?" Although Rias tried her best, with everything that had happened it was only natural that a girl her age would have fainted.
Shirou watched the one that summoned fall unconscious as he quickly takes note of her injuries, confirming that she would be alright as he faces her attackers. He didn't know why they would attack an seemingly innocent girl but he would find out. He unconsciously structural grasps them and his environment as the world shifts before his eyes, only to return back to normal after he receives the information as he narrows his eyes at the so called devils before him.
A number of thoughts echoed in his mind but the only thought that mattered at this moment however….
"Trace on." …was the Slaying of Evil, for should was his purpose as 'Ally of Justice'
As Black keys of the holy church pierced their shadow, stopping them from moving. It was but a moment that they had to reevaluate their lives as they were cut down by a rain of swords, quickly ending their lives as if they were but insects before his eyes as the hero simply went to pick up the unconscious girl and walk away.
It was but a matter of minutes before Rias's family returned to their home alarmed by the presence near their home moments ago, It was there that they met the Servant that saved the life of Rias Gremory for was it not his role?
It was that day did the scope of the world change forever, for it was the day that marked the arrival of Heroic Spirits, Summon forth from the Throne of Heroes once more in an Age of God unfaded.
It was also the day that the Savior of an Impossible Future Met with the Crimson Haired Devil Princess, for their meeting would shape the future differently forever on.
As such, this day would easily forget another seemingly insignificant yet important event that had happened that would also help mold an uncertain future.
A Boy with short brown hair was currently running back home after leaving a park near his home was absorbed in thought. These past few days had begun different for him than most as it started on the day that his best friend would be moving out away from him.
It has been a day for him filled with tears and despair as both left with their respective families while crying as his friend and their family had to move to somewhere in Europe for a better job or something while the boy and his stay behind, promising that they would meet up again in the future.
Now the boy wasn't a social butterfly by any means, with his best friend being the only exception. He was quiet most of the time when he was without his friend. It was after a day when his friend had left this quiet little town did he meet up with a strange old man with an cane with odd marking near the playground where he and his friend played at.
His parents had told him many times that to strangers, but something about the situation about other day. He just wanted someone to talk to, so he did with the old man as they became acquainted with one and other. They talked and talked about various things for a while, most about the philosophy of what it meant to be a Hero for that was both his and his best friend wish to be heroes like Kamen Rider and the like.
So the old man gave him a card with the words 'ARCHER' written on it, telling him that with that card one day he would be a hero. Excited in a naïve way the boy asked what was the old man name as he pocketed the card.
"Well child, My name is Kiscur Zelretch Schweinorg! I hope that when we will meet again, it's when you became a hero." The old man smiled as the boy took his hand in a handshake before leaving back home
"Ah! My name is Hyoudou Issei! I'll surely become a hero, do you hear that Zelretch-san!" the boy shouted as he left the park after turning away from the old man, had he not he would have seen an even bigger smile on his face as the old man seemly disappear with no one witness to what had just taken place.
Back to the present as the boy known as Issei started nearing his house, he quickly spotted a little girl face down in the ground as he quickly made his way to her.
"H-Hey! Are you ok!?" Issei shouted as he checked her pulse remember he was taught as such by his father early on to check if someone's heart was still beating
She was alive as he found out before he tried to wake the girl up as he gently shakes the girl.
The girl stirred in her unconscious mind as she felt a comforting familiar presence in her area as she opens her bleary eyes and said "….Onii-chan?" before falling back into a state of unconsciousness
Issei quickly picked her up with new found strength as he quickly brought her to his house, his parents came down quickly as if sensing him return with an unknown guest. They turned their attention to the unconscious child in their son's arms.
With Issei so worried about the girl that called him big brother, he didn't know that the Archer card in his pocket disappeared into himself as it started connecting to his soul but before it could even get started, something instantly seals it away before the card and the magic with it goes into that akin to a slumber as any and all magical energy traces within him vanish making it appear like the boy was a normally average human being.
It was weeks later did the girl was officially adopted in the Hyoudou household, and such was the day that Issei Hyoudou, A Future Hero met with his new little sister Miyu Sakatsuki, The Child of God.
And that's a wrap! How did you guys think about this chapter? That was the longest thing I had ever writing before with the most ever being 3,000 words (I think? It's been some time since I did any writing so who knows) hopefully you would all like it but I know that not everyone will take this well so help my story by throwing advice my way alright. Any advice by experience writer on the site would be extremely appreciated. Any beta readers looking out my way would be nice as well. Oh and 1 more thing I'll try to do this monthly but it may not be possible due to issue in life so I apologize if any of my work because super delayed.
*Hōseki is the Japanese translated word for Jewel
Now let's talk more about this chapter shall we.
So Firstly, the most of the chapter was to cover the brief summary of A Shirou Emiya that I based on Fake x Fate's Shirou Emiya (Great Fic BTW) which was the Shirou Emiya of Heaven' Feel route True End being the only survivor at the end with Sakura and everyone else dead. And from there I made him the apprentice of Zelretch alongside Luvia in place of Rin with everything else being what I imaged would had happen if Angra Mainyu had his wish to manifest in the world and tried to kill all of humanity, just you know on an albeit slower rate than if he would had won the grail with everything else in between having been cooked up by me. Now more details of This Version of Shirou Emiya's backstory will be reveal slowly throughout the series including his students so be sure to stick tuned for that as i'll bet you'll see some familiar faces.
Now on the next subject would be his summon by Rias in her childhood before she started recruiting the other member of the future Occult Research Club, now I've only really seen a story that tries to do the summon in this way once (or was it twice?) so I follow that then something that wouldn't have work with what I was trying to do. Also wouldn't it been interesting to see the members of the club being mentored by a Hero. ;)
On the finally subject, that of Issei, the class cards and Miyu. I Bet no one expected that at the end huh! So yeah OOC! Issei because class cards and Zelretch instead of old man pervert that he met at the park, pretty much the same on that front with Representation of Humanity & Holding all the Cards (Both great Fics as well) with me change some of how things work in the Nasuverse to better fit the story, hopefully you guys don't start throwing hate in the reviews because of it and it will help if you all can call bullshit on anything I write wrongly as my knowledge on these things aren't that great. Now onto the most important and different thing of my story compared to others, Miyu. Having read and watched the fate kaleid manga and anime respectively, so far no one has made an attempt on writing Miyu if she hadn't been adopted by the Edelfelts yet so this would be my try at it with this story so hopeful I don't fuck it up, so expect her being a bit OOC as well because you know being raised in a magus household and a normal household are completely different thing.
And so ends my first author notes of this story, Thanks and please review.
