Chapter 9: Danmachi X Fate/Grand Order - A Heroic Avenger

Welp, at long last the timer went to zero. Thirty minutes were up.

"Okay, that felt too long." Cu said with new bruises and some cuts on his face.

"Agreed." EMIYA Archer nodded. Even though it was thirty minutes, it felt like days instead.

"At least we did something." Babbage reminded them.

"Yeah...but it felt tiring in its own way." Ritsuka says.

"Ahu." Guadako agrees. "If anything, when I took my nap it as like hours or something."

"Might be a time difference." Merlin tells them. "I noticed this place doesn't align properly with my watch." He then shows him his watch, which says only two seconds have passed.

"...Have you had that watch this entire time?" Lancelot asked.

"Yeah." Merlin says nonchalantly.

"Uh-hu." Artoria just sits down on her seat. "In the meantime, I suppose we should resume our viewing. I see the voice isn't here yet."

"I hope he's okay." Mash said with worry. Unsure why it was taking the voice so long to get back. "Hopefully he isn't hurt getting Olga."

"Eh, who cares about the voice." Kid Gil says. "He's a jackass." I mean, he ditched his last cast before making them the latest victims.

"I'm sure he's alright." Da Vinci says, thinking nothing bad is happening to the voice.

"Take this ya bastard!" The voice says as he copywrites 'Super Saiyan' while facing the Alien God.

Said being that roars in rage and readies to face the voice off. The planet they were on, falling to pieces.

"Ahhhh!"

...Along with the entire Ben Tennyson earth universe. The hero himself lies in a pool of blood from being hit by a comet. His friends and family...er, best not to say what condition they were. Eh, oh well. There were more Ben Ten universes out there. Not a big deal.

"Sure." Billy the Kid yawns. "Let's just get watching already." Many agreed as they sat back and got ready to watch the latest world.

The screen was soon turning on, where then it began showing something else entirely.

Monsters. They all came in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Depending on the circumstances, they can be either weak or strong. Each having an advantage that aided them in taking down the intruders known as adventurers. The Dungeon itself constantly mass produces these beats every day without stopping. Yet even then because of the seal above, Babel, monsters couldn't escape at all to the surface world. Instead trapped here with no way out at the moment.

This allowed adventures to venture within, plan, analyze, and kill these beasts be it for fame, money, or tools. So long as one was smart, most monsters weren't even a threat. More so on the eighteenth floor, as thanks to it being a type of safe zone, monsters weren't produced here. Instead it allowed adventurers to relax with the only threat there being each other or the occasional monster that wandered into the zone.

But with so many adventurers, they were little to no threat.

"RAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Which was why many felt shocked and terrified to the bone when a massive monster with countless other strong beasts came from seemingly nowhere. Unlike the usual low-level monsters that came here to the eighteenth floor, this one wasn't a weakling. It's size and width meant it was strong, with creatures that have been reported to be Level 3 or 4 at best.

Meanwhile, most adventurers here range from one man being Level 4, to the rest being Level 3 and lower. Which meant only one thing.

"Run!"

"We can't win!"

"Someone save us!"

"Well that's new." Guadako says as she sees people running from what were generic monsters she's seen in the Dungeon and Monsters game. "And those look like elves and stuff. Didn't you guys mention once they used to live here."

"Until Gaia kicked them out." Medea comments. "The earth sending them to the reverse side of the world." Anything deemed not worthy I suppose.

"That sounds kinda...mean." Ritsuka comments, feeling bad for said races. Being forced away from earth without a say in the manner. Kinda sad when one thinks about it. Just minding your own life until you were kicked out of the planet just because.

"It is kinda sad." Astolfo couldn't imagine what it would be like if he lost his own Hippogriff and couldn't summon him. Other Servants like Iskandar with their own Phantasmal Beasts also felt horrified if they lost their beloved steeds and animal ally.

"It is what it is." Circe then frowned. "Still though, I don't recognize that monster." She points out to the plant-like creature. "Plus, I don't see any of us."

"I'm sure we'll show up later." Nero says, believing they-and likely her-will take center stage. "Though I can't say I like that monster, trying to mimic a human form. How disgusting."

"No beauty at all." Da Vinci agreed.

That these adventurers were out of their depth against a truly superior foe. The massive monster with a form resiment of a woman screeching as the Violas hissed and attacked. Thanks to the position, none of the adventurers were close to the beast. However it was moving and fast, very fast. It's 'legs' consisting of nothing but numerous wide mouthed plants that would tear them apart. Those that were close began running with all their might, not wanting to be this monster's snack.

"You can say that again." Atalanta shivered. "This isn't a strong monster eating a weak one like nature intended. But a nightmare of sorts."

"It also doesn't appear to be part of a regular species." Scathach looks at it with keen eyes. "If anything, I don't think it's a normal monster that's natural to that place, but potentially some form of mutation."

"That doesn't make things any better." Illya shivered at the beast. "Look at all those teeth."

"Uh." Chloe looked at it in disgust. "You'd think it'd be one of those echi tentacles, not something as gross as that." Hopefully a Servant will come and kill it.

"It's coming this way…" Though it might happen regardless, as the Level 6 adventurer Finn noted the creature headed toward where all the people were at. This made those closest either running or simply panicking. Only two people were calm, and that was the members of the Loki Familia with Bors.

"I would like to know...where exactly they came from...But finishing them off takes precedent." Riveria says as she watches the massive monster going to them with a snarl.

"Yes, I agree." Finn was with her.

"How the hell are the two of you so calm!?" The nearly crying and screaming Bors shouted at them as he waved his arms like a child. "It's time to panic dammit!" As expected of a man who never faced danger like his before. Though he wasn't wrong either, considering this floor never had this kind of threat before. It was unprecedented, and frankly was worth peeing one's pants or skirt.

Still, there were many adventurers here that won't just bow down and cry as this monster was aimed at them. While none were as brave as the Loki Familia members, those who weren't running stood their ground as they watched the monster come ever closer with it's army of man-eating plants. Their weapons drawn and raised, looks of resistance planted on their expression. Pants unsoiled with all of them waiting for the monsters to get in range unless they had a bow or magical ranged attack.

"Good. At least not everybody in...whatever this place is, isn't a coward." Cu says while giving a judgmental stare at 'Finn'. "Don't know who that guy is, but he seems to have a good head on his shoulder."

"They do seem admirable. Giving off a nice charisma." Artoria agrees, not bothering with how small the Finn character is. As even though she herself didn't look like much, she was still a powerful warrior. "Still though, even if they are brave, I can't imagine all of these people will survive."

"True." EMIYA Archer coolly says in agreement. "While a good amount might survive, these strange monsters feel unnaturally hostile. Even worse, they're being led by a clear Alpha monster, which shows some form of intelligence."

"Meaning a good amount of these people will perish before they drive it off." Siegfried can't say he liked that, but nothing could be done about it. When battling monsters in masses, its natural for many to die out before the threat is killed off. Only the strong, the determined, or the lucky will survive this mess.

"Shraaaa!" An attack that came a lot sooner than many thought. Those unprepared squealed, ran, or peed in their undergarments. Having not expected this at all. The adventurers had been unaware that while many of the Violas became one with the massive one and consisted of it's 'leg's', there were still a few Violas that were free to move without any trouble.

"No-Noooo!" As one man was about to find out the hard way as it saw a Viola stretching itself tall then looking at him. Drool coming out with it's unnatural mouth opening wide, ready to devour him whole before chewing.

"Gandr!" Then a shout came and suddenly a blot of dark energy came and hit the beast, stunning it.

"Wha-!" The man turned and then saw a girl that looked less like an adventurer and more like a noble person. A girl who then shot another beam which instantly went through the Viola's head. Of course she shot numerous more shots until the beats eventually became unresponsive. It's body then falling flat before dissipating into the usual smoke. Silenced, the man turned wondering who the girl was before he saw her running away.

"...eg…" Mash just says.

"EH!" The Fujimaru twins weren't as quite.

"I-I-is that-" Ritsuka stuttered.

"The Director!" Guadako finished for him.

"It...It is." Da Vinci blinked with shock written on her expression. "But...but how…"

"She's very...young." Atalanta says unsteadily. Not seeing the grown woman that people told her of the former Director, but a child.

"A very cute one." Medea huffed as she stared at the little Olga. Oh my gosh. She's so adorable!

"And...familiar." Waver blinks as he feels like he's seen her before, even though he hasn't. Grey herself also felt the same very much. Even though neither even saw the Director before.

"But, what's she doing there?" Brynhild feels worried. "She looks even younger than the Masters. Will she even be alright in this battlefield?" Nobody could really answer that. They could only hope she did.

"Now for the next one." Olga said as she held a few pebbles in her hand as she heard more screeches. From nearby she saw two Violas attacking a few people. While still scared, unlike before with that furry gorilla she wasn't close enough to be scared and frozen stiff. She then began using the pebbles as miniature laser attacks that flew at the Viola.

The plant creature itself noticed the use of magic-or something close to it-and turned its head. In response, it had got bashed by the small pebbles leaving numerous marks on it.

"Shraaaa!" Both angered, and still alive, it used its senses to detect where it came from. Once it found the target, it lurched toward the person at high speed. Mouth ready to devour the person and then kill them.

"Eat this!" Instead it's head then exploded into a messy pulp. Due to it's speed, it went as fast as a modern day truck. Timing it as best she could, Olga then summoned a powerful barrier with yellow circles and symbols, where the plant then rammed itself onto it. It was like a truck hitting a thick building wall. Though in this case, Olga reinforced said wall a lot more, allowing it so that the plant effectively killed itself.

"...Huh...she's actually doing good." Medea now understood why the Director was considered talented.

"I can agree to that." Ritsuka and Guadako look in amazement. Then both felt a bit embarrassed as what looked like a ten year old was beating them in magecraft. The only thing they could do was use mystic codes, but that was about it. To see an even younger Olga do this to a monster without the help of Servants, was quite frankly, a bit of a punch to the gut to them.

'Maybe we should actually start practicing magecraft.' Guadako thinks as she and her brother never bothered tried to practice, and just relied on mystic codes.

'Still,' Olga thought as she continued moving forward, not wanting to stay in the same place for too long. 'I put a good amount of mana into that barrier, yet I don't feel tired at all.' And not in the physically tired with her leg muscles. What Olga meant was her own mana reserves.

When one uses mana and focuses it into spells, depending how much they use they can either feel nothing or feel as winded as a marathon runner. Mana came from a person's body, and like when a person trains or exercises, any magus can get tired by using their mana for their spells and magecraft. More so if they use a lot, and if a magus overdoes it, they can even die.

Mana in a sense, is connected to one's one lifeforce. If they continue using their mana even when they run out, then they're own lifeforce is used in which they can then die from killing themselves. While Olga was careful enough not to cause her situation to end up like that, having high-quality circuits, even she could tell something was off. She didn't feel like she was running out, instead, it felt as if she had more mana for some reason.

'...I'm pretty sure that's now how mana works.' Every magecraft user thought at the same time. Either this Olga was taught wrong, or maybe this world they were seeing had different rules.

'If it is our world.' Holmes then thought, as he further gazed upon the location Olga was in. As while it felt like it could be a Singularity, it sure didn't feel like it. Was Olga perhaps, somewhere else?

'A thing to think about later.' The girl thought as she shot an extra powerful Gandr at another Viola before then pummeling it with rune-inscribed pebbles. She had to keep moving, and thankfully for her there weren't too many of these monsters coming after her. Heck, it was actually only these plants that attacked.

From what she could see, other monsters were actually being killed by these things as they would kill a person. Strange, weren't they supposed to be allies? Before she could ponder, Olga then felt an immense amount of mana bursting from elsewhere. The type of mana that shouldn't even be possible in the modern age.

"Shraaaa!" The type that was also attracting a lot of the Violas, with Olga finally realizing that these things were attracted to mana. The massive monster from before now headed toward where she felt the source of that mana. Whoever was producing this amount of mana that would make any mage jealous of envy, they must be using it in hopes to attract then kill that monster. Made her sigh in relief that someone else would be dealing with that abomination.

In fact, thinking of abominations, "Where is Avenger?"

"Oh. She's with an Avenger Class Servant. I suppose that's good." Da Vinco comments. "Avengers are pretty strong."

"Hold on a second though," Mash then interrupts. "I thought the Director had no aptitude towards being a Master." The one thing that made Olga so mad.

"Maybe its just different there." Hans tells her in place of the geniuses. "After all, some of the worlds we've seen clearly have different rules here and there." Plus slight changes that made it odd in their perspective, but normal in this world.

"I wonder what Servant she has though." Jeanne then looks at her 'sister' who just looks away with a scowl.

"Knowing the Director, it must be someone strong." In Fergus's eyes, she'd only accept the best. If what he heard about the Director is true, then a high calibur Servant is what she'd want.

"Can't disagree with you there." Da Vinci chuckled.

She then began running in hopes of seeing her Servant.

"Wow. This is just insane." Avenger simply said as he saw the battle between the adventurers and carnivorous plants. Seeing many adventurers barely escaping with their lives.

"Hey! Hey! Let me go! Let me-ahhhh!" A few he decided to then grab and turn into meat shields. Those Violas seem to be attracted to him now and then, so he grabbed some adventurers when nobody was looking at them and threw them as a distraction.

After that, he then used them to distract the Violas by throwing the adventurers into their mouths making them forced to chew the person up before moving on. He had to admit, they certainly knew how to eat as he saw the man he threw turned into something less of a human and more of grinded bloated meat. A few bloody limbs falling out with the drool now dyed with the red blood.

"..." Both Masters instantly turned green, with Mash staring horrified at what she just saw.

"Avenger." EMIYA hissed in a whisper, with Servants of the Fifth Grail War tensing up.

"That's her Servant." Illya just barley held in her vomit, as she saw that Servant use a human as bait. Disgusted by what he did to that poor person while equally grotesques by the scene she witnessed. A few other Servants like Fran or Mordred also looking angry at what they saw.

"Bastard." Artoria restrained her anger, but clenched her fist.

"Huh. So that's what he looks like." Cu just narrows his eye into a glare. "Boy. Doesn't he look familiar."

EMIYA Archer says nothing, but then again, he didn't have to. The hidden anger in his eyes said all the words he wished to say. Recalling that this Servant being part of the scheme that nearly destroyed the world in his timeline. The one that made Sakura suffer a lot when she was forced to be his container.

"She summoned that Servant." Medea glares. "But why? He's a weakling."

"Wait. He is." Jeanne (Alter) looks surprised. "But, isn't he the first Avenger."

"Being first doesn't mean strong." Holmes then says. "Avenger, Angra Mainyu, is in fact, the weakest Servant in the entity of the Throne of Heroes, as all the files dictate." The Chaldea database listed Avenger as a non-threat in any Holy Grail War.

"Indeed." Moriaty then speaks up. "While he can still kill humans, that's all he can do. Against Servants, he may as well be a human himself since he lacks any proper power to deal with them."

"If I were to take a guess, its more likely Olga here got him by accident." Waver deduced. "Although despite being weak, he is still a threat, as we saw what he did there." He then looked at the Masters, who didn't look good. Ah, right. While they have seen viscous Servants in the past, it wasn't often they see them do such horrible actions in front of their eyes.

While the two were braver than any Master he's seen, at the end of the day, they're still young people. People who should never see such vile actions like this.

With the monster now busy eating, Avenger grinned as he then jumped up and summoned his ever reliable reverse blades and stabbed them onto the Viola.

"Shra!" It twisted and turned, trying to get this parasite off it. Attempting to ram itself onto the ground to either get the person off it or kill him. Avenger was more durable than an average person though, and he held tight. Grinning as he then let one of his arms go and summoned another reverse blade and used it to slit his own chest. The corrosive material he called 'blood' spilled and burned right through the Viola's body as it screeched in further pain until it soon ended up dying.

"Guess that black mud is good after all." Avenger happily said as he jumped off the soon dissipating beast, leaving behind a magic stone which he soon took. "Guess a corrupt Grail is good for something after all." Especially when it came to torturing man and monster.

Artoria had to stop herself from hissing. That mud, the corrupt Grail. She could still recall when that Servant turned her into that form. Unlike the one in Chaldea, who was somewhat decent to hang with, the one she turned to wouldn't hesitate to kill. Why, her current Masters faced that Alter of her alongside Mash and nearly died.

In a way, it made Saber feel sad that despite having good compatibility with many Servants, they first had to deal with the 'enemy' versions first. Only after they win and potentially summon the enemy Servants, can they get a chance to be friends with them.

As for others like Mash, they watched the strange 'blood mud' kill a monster. "That looks...familiar.' Visions of Singularity F came into mind.

"And it'd be best if you forget it." EMIYA Archer coldly says to her. "It's not worth remembering."

To bad that wasn't easy, as both Chloe, Illya, and especially Miyu all felt a shiver when they saw what Avenger spilled. It was just like the stuff they saw back when things were getting serious.

At another part of the theatre, a certain Caster and Assasin pair, glared at Avenger. The former having been deiled by it, and her body used by it, while the latter was cursed by it. Not good memories.

As Avenger stretched, he saw the many adventurers fighting back with barely anybody dying. While honestly pathetic, he could admit that people-when given the right motive-can rise to the challenge and fight back against a greater enemy. That giant ugly plant being especially a powerful foe. Only that small blonde guy-Finn something-could do any real damage. Like say, cutting off a lot of the things Viola legs.

'Man. I wonder how strong they can be if they're summoned as Servants.' The Throne of Heroes could do two things if someone qualified as a Heroic Spirit. Make them stronger, because no way someone like Edison could take on Lu Bu without an edge, or weaken them if they were too strong. For Avenger's case, despite being the weakest legend and hero in general, he was still stronger than any human out there. So if an already strong person becomes a Heroic Spirit, then they'll be a hell lot tougher.

"Indeed." Edison nods. "While it shames me to admit it, but recent Servants like myself get a major boost from the Holy Grail to compensate for our lack of 'Mystery'.

"Don't remind me." Hans rolls his eyes. "Who knew one had to live in times of dark magical ages to get power." Not that he was complaining about his own abilities. Though even he got slightly jealous when seeing other Servants use magical attacks that they earn in life, while he did magical attacks that he only received from the Throne since he had no powers other than a pen.

In any case, Avenger had his own thing to do. Mainly, one-upping these guys. I mean, according to his little Master, certain monsters had higher-quality magic stones compared to others. So this strong, powerful, and kinda womanly monster must certainly have a high-quality stone in it's chest. So all he had to do was grab that pair and pull it out!

'Huh...that actually sounds wrong.' Ah whatever. He's All The World's Evils, not All The World's Kindness. Now, he just needed to find a way to get near that disgusting plant woman. But first, he needed to do something else. Mainly, prepare.

With a grin, Avengers body began glowing. The very tattoos on his chest, arm, legs, and every else began shifting like they were on water, then began glowing. If he wanted to kill this thing, then he needed to do some killer damage. Something that not even his mud could do unless he got a good opportunity. "Hahaha! So long as I don't get one-shotted, this should work."

"!" Too bad for Avenger, he'll be finding out much sooner than he'd have liked.

Because nearby where he was at, the very same monster he had been ready to kill instantly stopped as it felt it. Earlier the botanical abomination had been hit by measly arrows, and then suddenly at the same time some small worthless man then cut through numerous of its makeshift legs. Causing it to screech in pain while also realizing it could no longer chase Aria.

To free itself from this poor positioning, it used countless of the Violas merged with it to attack all the nearby adventurers. It didn't bother to even try and kill them, as it needed time instead to make room for itself before it could then move on. To get her! Aria! But these worthless mortals kept getting in it's way, meaning it couldn't go near her without these ants attacking. As annoying as it is, the massive plant monster decided that perhaps it would be best to kill the adventurers first before it left to find Aria, whose presence was still around.

"Aria?" Mash tilted her head.

"Best not to bother Mash." Guadako tells her adorable Shelder. "I don't know what Singularity or place this is, but its using terminology we don't get." Not to mention other people.

"Ah. Like Sonic." Mash says recalling the blue hedgehog.

"Yeah. Only this time, they 'res no voice to give is the finer details." Which kinda sucks now, as Guadako realizes. Apparently that guy did give good intel on whatever they watched another reality. Who would have guessed.

The massive plant monster first felt a mass amount of mana, coming from the elf woman. The wording and chants made it realize they were about to unleash a powerful attack. The regular Violas were already coming to her since she had no guard. Just in case though, the monster decided to also aid and unleash its own attack.

That's when it felt another mana source very nearby.

Unknown to Avenger, this unique Viola was even more sensitive to mana sensing compared to regular Violas. Thus it felt the usage of mana Avenger was using for in his world would be called a Noble Phantasm. Suddenly, it felt a third far away from its current location.

It was then the creature realized it was being attacked in three fronts. The monster was unsure what to do, but unlike the other monsters, including the Viola, this one could actually think. Currently the third was too far away to strike, as for the first one it detected from the elf, regular Viola were near her. So it can leave the elf to them. For the second however, the mana there was closer and even in her blind spot.

In that split second it made its move.

"Huh...Gah!" Avenger, just as he was nearly done with his incantation, suddenly saw the massive shadow and form of the plant looming at him. With a screech, the monster then began chasing after him with Avenger running the heck away.

"Fusillade Fallarica!"

Both just in time and to the Loki Familia's shock.

Riviera and Lefiya had made a plan to weaken then kill the monster with the aid of Finn. It was simple really. Thanks to their knowledge, they knew the Violas were sensitive to mana, and no doubt this strange version is the same considering what monsters it merged and is composed of. So while a magical attack wouldn't get by this one, it also meant they could narrow its vision.

Riviera would be the one to chant a powerful spell, grabbing the monsters attention. There the monster and the Violas would attack and come to her, where Riveria would then run off and escape. This would allow Lefiya to then fire back as she would not only be a far distance away, but the monster wouldn't have sensed her mana since it was too focused on Riveria. Thus using a powerful spell to weaken it.

"No." Unfortunately that quick movement to another direction made Lefiya's spell miss it completely. Her spell had been a massive multi laser type, and had things gone right it would have heavily injured it while stunning the plant abomination. Sure a few beams hit it, but the vast majority missed with only the Violas that composed of her legs being hit.

"Well that sucks." Guadako comments.

"That is indeed a powerful attack." Medea admits as she and everyone else witnessed the massively powerful spell. "If it hadn't been for that fool Avenger, then their plan may have worked."

"A long incantation to create that, very nice." Circe also liked the firepower that spell makes. "Not even we Servants could get away without a scratch from that young little elf's fire power."

"They definitely look worth fighting." Beowulf agrees. "Goes to show that the voice is kinda right. There are other people who can handle us. Just a shame we can't actually meet them."

"You and me both." Cu laughs.

"Still though, this isn't good." Da Vinci then chides them. "There plan failed, meaning unless they can get a new one ready, then many will die."

"Hopefully they can do it then." Ritsuka felt worried. He may not know these people, but he ddn't want them to die either.

Nearby both Tiona and Tione, who had been ready to attack it alongside Finn, watched as it left.

"Did it sense Lefiya?" Tione asked as she stared at the creature's back, angry.

"No." Finn said. "At the very least, not at that moment. It must have sensed someone else using mana and got lucky." Not that it made the situation better.

"Eh!" Tiona cried out as they all began chasing after the monster before it could cause more damage. "But who would it even be chasing?"

"An idiot." It was then the Emiya family blinked. EMIYA Archer, Chloe, and Illya looked at one another, but then turned their heads to another direction of the theatre. Feeling like they heard a familar voice where both Caster and Assasin felt the same.

Must be their imaginations.

"Ah shit!" Meanwhile, Avenger, who hadn't realized he had screwed up a plan that would have succeeded, was running as fast as he could. The massive monster had instantly felt some burns and now began thinking this man might do the same. Well, it won't let it.

"SHRAAAA!" Without hesitation it lifted it's arms which then became a swarm of Violas that stretched themselves to devour the poor Servant.

"Oh come on!" Avenger shouted as he ran faster thanks to his A Rank Agility-the only good stat he even had. Doing his best to avoid the large maws the Violas had. "I'm the killer, not you, you damn compost heap." He then leapt up and landed on a Viola head., those nearby attacking in that instant.

However, Avenger wasn't going to take that lying down. While pathetically weak, these monsters, while fast, were far from the fastest people he met. In the Third Holy Grail War, he faced even faster. Like that bitch Archer, who chased after him after he killed a few kids to draw her out. While she was unable to kill him, she did land a few arrows in between his shoulder blades. Man was she mad, apparently upset that he killed those brats and something about retribution and crap.

Atalanta officially hated Avenger.

Nearby, Holmes decided to check the information about the Third Holy Grail War. He got a good feeling who this 'Archer' character is. Looking at Atalanta with an amused look.

The point is, he faced faster and was faster. Avenger dodging and jumping all over while using his blades to cut through the hides they had. While it didn't do much damage, it at least distracted them. Whenever one got close, he then jumped away and then threw his reverse blades while summoning another pair and throwing those two.

His only shame was that they didn't have that boomerang effect like that asshole Counter Guardian from the fifth war.

"Shra!"

"Woah!" To bad he wasn't as strong or skilled as that bastard too. A Viola then comes in and rips out his own , it soon begins choking from it as his leg spurtes the nasty muddy blood in it, but it was still annoying.

With a grunt he regenerated his missing leg-perks for having a strange body even by Servant standards-and just kept slashing back at the incoming Violas. However, the botanical nightmare was tiring of this, and wished to end this worm before it resumed its chase for Aria.

Lobbing off a few of it's own Viola head-hands, the monster then used the spear-like tipped ends to aim at Avengers body. This time by putting extra speed to it. Thanks to the other Violas, Avenger was in midair. Agility meant nothing as he couldn't move now, the Violas retreating to give him no foothold to jump from. The sharp ended vines now ready to do their part.

Nearby Finn, Tione, and Tione were finally caught up. While upset that their initial plan had failed, they may have another chance. For whatever attracted the massive monster, it was also paying a lot of attention to them. This gave them a chance to strike, the other adventurers already preparing to launch a multitude of arrows and whatever magic those had where the three would then strike.

With that done, then maybe they could then help Aiz who had been reported in facing someone else. Riveria was on her way, and once this menace was dealt with, they could aid Aiz to. As they got closer though, Finn then saw what it was that finally attracted the unnatural beast.

"You." It was none other than the man called Avenger. How he attracted the strange Viola was definitely a question worth considering, especially given how the girl Olga never mentioned him having magic. Especially if it somehow attracted this creature.

Tione and Tione also noticed the man too. Though none of the three could do anything, particularly with what happened next. Because the moment they saw Avenger, was the moment they then saw him killed.

"Shraa!" Killed as five pointed vines went right through his body like nothing. Left arm, a chunk of his head, the right side of his chest, torso, and his hip. All gone as he was reduced to that, black muddy blood spilling out of the new holes made in him. Watching as his body then fell.

"Tha'ts a dead man alright." Cu mutters as he saw Avenger falling.

"Are you sure," Medea (Lily) then asks. "It looked like he could somehow regenerate, which is rather odd."

"Perhaps." Da Vinci shrugs. "But even if he survives, with such wounds the monster wiil only kill him off. Even he can't regenerate that fast."

"He did show some skill in battle, but he's no warrior." Grey adds on as she recalled what Avenger did earlier. He used those Reverse Blades well, but not in some useful manner. Using strength and his power as a Servant alongside that strange black muddy blood to get ahead. But against this massive monster, one that would even give some Servants a hard time, it's only inedible he'd fall to it.

"At the very least, those other warriors will get a chance to kill that monster." Saint Martha thinks back on those who had attempted to kill the beast from earlier. "While it's distracted desecrating Avenger, Finn and the others can attack it."

"That seems kinda rude." Medea (Lily) comments on how Saint Martha spoke of letting the monster kill Avenger in a horrible fashion.

"Remeber what he did to those people." Amaska then reminds the girl, how he used people as bait. What comes around goes around. At least his death will be meaningful. What was it people called it again, death as redemption. Well, Avengers current position kinda counted.

"Still though…" Guadako then talks. "I feel bad for Olga."

"Why's that senpai?" Mash asked as Guadako points to the screen, where Mash and others looked to see why Guadako said those words.

"...No." Olga simply said. Her eyes watching as she saw the monster killing her Servant. The only person that had been with her in this strange world. Looking as his body fell, as her own then fell onto her knees.

"Ah." Fran whispers, realizing what the Master meant.

"Tch. Now I get it." Mordred muttered, also in understatement.

"Olga...she sees Avenger as the only person with her." Jeanne also realized the situation. As while she didn't know where Olga was, it was clear at this moment that she was with Avenger, and only Avenger. Meaning if he died, then…

"Then she'd be all alone." Ritsuka couldn't imagine a life like that for him. Heck, if he had ended up alone in one of the Singularities, with nobody but strangers around, he wasn't sure how he could take it. 'I wonder...if this is how our Olga felt when Lev, her only friend, betrayed her.'

"..." As for Avenger himself, his eyes became hazed as his body fell down onto the earth below.

Hell, he was pretty sure his Spirit Origin was damaged, if not outright broken or whatever. His non-functioning limbs more or less flapping uselessly in the air. Feeling a lot of pain from losing his limbs and blood. While Heroic Spirits were powerful, they weren't invincible. Depending on the circumstances, they can be beaten and it didn't even have to be a human that did the deed.

Didn't help that as the weakest Servant of them all, his durability was crap unless it was a human attacking him. His head also hurt a lot. Brain matter poking out of his head with a chunk of it missing. His left eye barley attached and went 'boing' as it was floating in the air with the nerve endings. His right eye then looked at the monster which had a smile on it.

A smile...it was like…

…

…

"Well then, looks like today was a good day."

"I know, right. The crops seem to be growing perfectly now."

"My wife isn't having any pain problems either."

"There haven't been any bandit sightings either."

In a place up on the mountains, many men and a few women were there. They wore simple robes that obscured their bodies and faces, with only their mouths properly seen. In their hands were tools of all sorts from knives to regular forks and so on. Simply put on a little table where besides it was special medicine and herbs.

As these people talked, one man walked to put away, but almost slipped.

"Whoop. You okay man?" A woman asked as she grabbed him before he fell.

"I am." The man responded as he then looked down. "Though maybe it's time we clean up a bit around here. After all," He then looked down on the floor, where blood was pooling up everywhere. "It's becoming tough to walk straight."

"Hm." Another man said, as he then put down a bloody hunting knife that he had just recently used. "I suppose we may have gotten a bit overboard. We wouldn't want our sacrifice to die because of blood loss, right." The man then turned to a woman and man. "You two, seal up his wounds. Make certain he doesn't die out now."

"Of course."

"On it."

As the screen shifted, it then showed who the sacrifice is.

"Oh my God." And it wasn't pretty, as Jeanne covered her mouth with the Masters themselves once more looking sick. As all the Servants then witnessed what was on screen.

With crude bandages the two then went to the center of the room, where a young man was tied up. On him were numerous wounds, scars, split skin, blisters, horrible deformities, missing fingers and toes, pus, and even bits of his brain and organ peeking out. Where there, the sacrifice could barely breath as his one good eye then turned to see two people doing their best to ensure he didn't die out.

"..." Before, he would cry out to just let him bleed out. But after the past few decades, he didn't even bother. Slipping in and out from insanity to sanity. Never able to tell now if he was even in a nightmare or if this was just reality. His only small comfort being that as he got older, the people couldn't do as much torture as before, or risk killing him from his weaker heart.

"That's...Avenger…" Jeanne (Alter) whispers with surprise.

"So this is the one who took the name, All the Worlds Evil." Kid Gil says, recalling how his older self once planned to use that being to cleanse the world. "I guess All the Worlds Evil had to come from somewhere." And from the looks of it, it was from human origin.

"Oh, you're up." The woman then said as she saw the sacrifice looking at her. She got a bit closer to him and then gave a single small smile. "Thank you for your sacrifice."

Cruel human origin.

The Caster from the other side of the theatre frowned. She didn't like what Angra Mainyu did to her...But seeing this, made her feel bad for him. As now, she was actually seeing the smallest origin of the one who used her body to manipulate her lover and daughter, and even threatened her future son.

Mash herself looked horrified, having for the majority of her life, seen only kind humans. Yes she's seen cruel ones who were mad, and attacked them, but at least she could handle herself. But this...this was…

Mash turned away with Guadako holding her a bit, while scowling at the people on the screen. Rituka also felt anger, and while he couldn't forgive what Avenger did earlier to the man he used as bait, a small part of him could now see why he was so callouses to killing others. 'Being tortured like that...and for decades...No wonder he's the First Avenger.'

"..." It was rare, but seeing that smile made the sacrifice feel one thing he hadn't in a long while. Resentment. Resentment...that he couldn't even kill her, for smiling at him like that.

…

…

…

"Hehe." Avenger then smiled, using his one good hand to throw the middle finger. Something the massive Viola noticed. "Remember…" His tattoos then began glowing, his body being enveloped in shadows as his form warped.

"!" The massive plant, Finn, Tione, and Tiona then saw this, with the three adventurers surprised.

"...you...Brought this onto YOURSELF!"

EMIYA Archer's eyes widened. He didn't recall Avenger capable of doing that before. Then again, he only saw his Corrupt Grail form and his incomplete birth, never the Servant Avenger.

"This should be interesting." Holmes takes a good look at what was about to happen. "T seems we're about to see the First Avengers Noble Phantasm."

"Ehehe." Jeanne (Alter) grins. "This should be good."

His body shined brightly, mana bursting from his own body. The unnatural plant realized that whatever was happening, it couldn't be good. While the mana it sensed was nowhere near as powerful as the elf from earlier, it wouldn't risk it. So it then screeched and got ready to crush the human.

"...What the…" Olga said as her eyes widened. "...Avenger...never told me he could do that…"

Finn had seen many things before. As a high-level adventurer, he met numerous threats from both the surface world and the Dungeon. His own instincts also told him that certain threats were also coming to the city. Even Loki showing the foresight of seeing enemies that will come to the city.

And proof of those threats was now right in sight.

The appearance of the new monster species.

The Violas.

Hints of old enemies from the past returning.

Strange monster sightings.

The recent murders in Orario and the Dungeon.

The woman attacking Aiz.

So on and so forth.

Yeesh. Looks like even in another world problems keep piling up.

With all these threats coming at once, Finn knew that while the Loki Familia was strong, perhaps gathering allies could help. While also keeping an eye on those who could be potential threats.

"Finn...who is he?" Tione then asked as they watched the scene before him.

"The hell is this guy!? Is he even human?" Tiona shouted out.

"..." Finn didn't answer, as he couldn't even if he wanted to. All he knew for certain was one thing, as he observed the so-called Adventure falling, reverting to a human form and no longer a wolf like beast. 'This man...he isn't human.'

"Okay, seriously, what did the dude do?" In Cu's eyes, it couldn't be that impressive.

It was nearly done. Kill this man, then chase after Aria to be whole again. Become one. That was its goal. With nothing that could get in its way.

"sSSSssSSHHhHrrRrAaaAAAa!" Yet in one second, everything had changed. One moment everyone had seen the massive monster moving.

In the second after, they then saw numerous holes made onto it. Missing a left arm, a chunk of its head, the right side of its chest, torso, and its hip. All the Violas attached to it screeching in utter pain! The wounds having just appeared out of nowhere. The creature moving erratically as its mind was flooded with pain, incapable of even a simple thought.

"Never mind." Cu said as he whistled.

"What the hell!" Mordred shouted. "That, what, huh!?"

"Well that's a very powerful ability." Holmes then looked at the wounds. "And from the looks of it, those wounds match the ones it inflicted on Avenger.

"Talk about terrifying." Illya shakes a bit. To have your own attack reflected back on you. That couldn't feel any good at all for the body.

"Pretty cool." Billy the Kid was interested.

"Hm." Da Vincci grins. "Maybe I can make something like that. It would be useful." Although she'll have to first make certain that the reflector doesn't rely on her gorgeous body getting harmed. Beauty shouldn't be messed with after all.

"Whatever the case, this is a good chance for the others to strike." Chiron spoke of what may be another world and its warriors taking advatahe of this sitution.

"Let's move and press the advantage!" Finn then shouted, and while he was curious who Avenger was and what he did, he wasn't going to let this chance go.

"And your right teacher." Archilles smiled. "This beatdown should be good.

"I'll join you Captain!" Tione grinned.

"Yeah!" Tiona agreed.

With flawless movement the three simultaneously struck and their own weapons went right through the creature. Cleaving through it's skin like it was butter, then jumping away as the creature began falling apart. The massive Viola, who was already wounded, could only open its human-shaped maw big and wide and screech loudly as the very Dungeon seemed to shake from its pain.

Then it went quiet. The damage from before having already done enough, the attack those three did having now destroyed the magic stone. Even if it had stayed intact, the creature doubted it would have been able to keep going with all these wounds. As it fell down to the ground and slammed into it, the creature silently said one thing that nobody, not even the Gods, could hear.

"Aria…"

Then like any other monster, it vanished without a trace. The only proof of its existence being a few tiny wrecked pieces of its magic stone, and the people that saw it this day.

"Shame they're not on the Throne of Heroes." Beowulf laments. As those guys proved to be fine warriors.

'Indeed." Fergus said as he eyed the Amazons. Particularly the more well-endowed one. "That one looked, hehee, worthy." The women close to him scotched away.

"A little to young looking," Then to the surprise of some men, Medb herself also had the same look on Fergus. "But this Finn character is also a fine man." The more younger looking ones such as Billy the Kid also moved away.

"Still though, looks like this battle is over." Ritsuka was glad for that. Looks like the heroes and warriors of that world managed to stop a great threat. Good for them.

"Avenger! Avenger!" Olga shouted as she wandered through the wrecked landscape. The monster has done a lot of damage to the area. Honestly, she doubted even a full ranked magus could have beaten this creature alone. So it amazed her that this creature was beaten, but at the moment she had other things to do. "Avenger!" Mainly, finding her Servant.

"Come on, where are you?" She called out to the open air. Not seeing any sign of movement at all. If she couldn't see him, or even hear him, then would that not mean…'No, no!' Olga thought, banishing the thought. 'He can't be dead. He-he-he's a Servant.' That's right, he should have survived, he had to have survived.

Because if he was gone, then here in this strange place she would be...be…

"Avenger!" She shouted again.

"Shra!" Her eyes widening as the response she got wasn't her Servant, but one of the few surviving Violas instead. The creature looked wounded, missing a few teeth, burn marks, and even had a weapon or two in its hide.

"Uh…" But it also had blood on it. Not its own, but the blood of a person. A bloody limb or two in it's mouth. Where with a sickening splat a head rolled out showing the head of what was once a woman only chewed up with missing flesh and a crushed right side covered in drool. Her expression-or what could be seen as an expression-being that of horror.

Olga took a step back, scared. The fear from before with that monster coming back, causing her to freeze. The Viola had no such reservation.

"Oh damn!" Guadko nearly threw up, but was now replaced with worry for the younger Olga.

"N-No." Mash sincerely hoped the young Director would somehow survive. But the way she looked, her frozen figure, it meant she likely wouldn't have time to do anything. 'Just like me.' Even though Mash has faced many monsters, deep down while it wasn't anything shameful, she was scared. She could only imagine how the younger Olga felt in face of that danger.

"Shraaa!" With a lunge it came onto her. Even if she hadn't been frozen scared, Olga wouldn't have had any time to have even conjured a barrier with runes. All she could do was close her eyes and pray this will be over quick.

"Man Master, you sure like letting others save you." Then came the sound of an obnoxious voice, followed by a pitiful squeal. Opening her eyes slowly, Olga then saw it. A bleeding but somehow healed Avenger, with his blades sticking under the roof of the Violas mouth, twisting it as the creature then vanished. Her Servant then stared at her with a bleeding grin. "Hey, what about a thank you?"

He got a hug instead. Olga held him tight while the girl looked like she might cry, having once more been put near death. Not even when she was in that Underworld Train with El Melloi II had been this bad.

"Thank you." It was a silent thanks, could barely even be heard.

Avenger heard however, and as he looked down he didn't stare at her in the usual teasing way. Instead, he heard her thanks and realized, it wasn't like the thanks he got back when he had been alive. Back when he was tortured daily and given thanks by the people who did the deed. It was a genuine thanks, one that even he was unsure how to feel about that.

'But,' Avenger thought as he then put a hand behind her, patting her on the back. 'I suppose it doesn't feel bad.'

Both Ritsuka and Guadko looked at one another, and an understanding came between them both.

If they ever summoned Avenger, Angra Mainyu...then it'd be best if they treated him like any other Servant they summoned. While in some ways he was worse than the Avengers they summoned or allied with, it'd be cruel in some form to treat him like a monster.

As Jeanne (Alter) said in Shinjuku, Avengers were forced to remain in their hatred. But that doesn't mean they can't change. If anything, seeing this version of Avenger being kind to that Olga meant he wasn't as evil as some would think. So if they summon him, then they'll be sure to treat him to a good time.

"So, I suppose this world is about to be finished." EMIYA Archer comments.

"Doubtful," Shakespear chuckles. "We still have a bit left." The screen then changes to one of absolute darkness, where they then heard a voice from the screen.

"I see...another fellow Spirit." Down far below, in the deepest parts of the Dungeon, a simple voice spoke out. A voice that could entrance both men and women alike, of any of the races. One that then split into a grin. "You will be a good body...let us become one. Then get Aria."

"Well isn't that ominous." Hans sarcastically said, then immediately wrote it down for an idea. "I can already see the ending."

"Wait. So then that's it?" Billy the Kd asked.

"Apparently not." Chiron points out as again the screen changes, this time showing a familiar face. Or should the say, familiar faces.

"Alright then, are you ready?" Roman then said as he and Da Vinci were in the Ray Shifting chamber. Nearby was a young girl with lilac hair, lavender eyes and fair her casual outfit she wears rectangular frame glasses, a grey hoodie over a black shirt over a white-collar shirt, a red tie, a black skirt and tights and brown shoes.

'Doctor.' Mash thought fondly, glad to see this version was alright.

"Wait, who's that then?" Ritsuka asked as they then saw another person...that was being censored. Damn it Voice! Guess it was some kind of spoiler thing.

"Of course I am." The young man responded. "This is to test if the connection is good, right?"

"Indeed." Da Vinci nodded while sipping some tea. "Once we send you there, and we determine it's safe enough, we'll then send one of the members of the A-Team with their own Servant."

"We can only hope of course that wherever you went is safe." Lev then entered the room. "I'll be frank, we have no idea where you'll be going. Which is why I'm grateful despite the risks, you're still going."

Da Vinci had to hold back from growling at him. Other Servants also looked surprised, as this was Lev, aka, the Demon God that blew up Chaldea.

"You don't think," Ritsuka looked at Mash, who didn't know how to answer as she just stared. Unsure of how to feel about Lev.

"Maybe...he's a good version." Guadako chimed in.

"Yeah." Cu then slowly says. "I mean, I bet there are some worlds where that creep is a good guy." It was a small chance, but who knows. It could be possible.

"Nothing we can really do about it but hope things in that dimension go alright." EMIYA Archer comments.

"Hahaha. Well, I don't mind a little danger." The Servant chuckled as he then put a hand on his hip. "Don't worry, I'll check out if the little heir is safe and sound. You can count on that." Everyone in the room smiled, hoping that Olga would be alright. It was honestly amazing her vitals were still strong, after all these years. She must be at least a young adult by now.

"Alright?" Illya was a bit confused by that. "What do they mean by that?"

"May I intrude." Holmes then spoke up, catching the Servants and Masters attention. "I believe I know what may be going on."

"Then don't hold back on us oh great detective." Moriaty rolls his eyes. "Do explain."

"With pleasure." Holmes then took a small smoke and let it out. "From those versions conversation, and the fact Miss Animusphere is somewhere else with Avenger, it's safe to say she may have gotten trapped in some Singularity of sorts."

"Oh. Like when my brother and I ended up in Singularity F." Guadako points out, recalling when they got sucked up in that Singularity.

"Indeed." Holmes nodded on a good answer. "It's possible this version of Olga and her Servant ended up trapped in this Singularity, and as of know Chaldea is attempting to locate and retrieve her." After all, it wasn't good for such a young girl to be trapped there in such a dangerous Singularity.

"Mash." Roman then turned to the girl. "Is everything good to go?"

"Yes doctor." Mash nodded as she looked at a computer monitor. A small little creature also looking on her shoulder. "All values are set and stable. Existence is proven correctly. SHEBA is functioning alright."

"Then let's get this party on the road." The Servant grinned as the Coffin then closed. The lights glowing as the procedure to send the Servant was working flawlessly. In moments the countdown began.

Rayshifting beginning…

Spiriton Conversion now Set…

Procedures and Clearance initiated.

Commencing Operation in 3...2...1…

"Good luck." Roman said as in a moment, the Servant was gone.

The screen ended just like that, the viewing over.

"That was nice." Beowulf stretched his upper body a bit. "Its good to see other strong characters. Makes me hope we see more."

'Yes. Even if we cannot fight them, viewing their tactics and battle style is a joy of its own." Scathach liked seeing other warriors. Made her blood boil in wishing she could face them.

"It was pretty cool." Ritsuka recalls how those Amazons and that Finn guy took out the giant plant monster. "Makes me amazed how some people can fight like that, despite not being Servants."

"Ah." Guadako smiles. "Imagine if we could be like that." While staying in the back-line was important, the female Master sometimes wished she could do actually back-up help. But she supposed it was the way it is.

"Now we just gotta wait for the next viewing." Da Vinci grabbed a notebook that she summoned, and wrote down what she saw. "I wonder when the voice will come back."

It was then at the moment a fiery body hit the ground next to them.

And finished. The voice has returned, and with a new guest. And this story done which was written by we go back to seeing little side stories, but with a small twist.
