*I swear to god this guy is messing with me, this is the worst act of embarrassment and horror since Bush puked on Miyazawa. He made me go out with an oof? At this point I'll rather offer myself to the Yandere vampire, at least she knows death is some big sh$t!, and not some meme to conclude with a laugh track, especially if that track...*
"WITH FREAKING ROBLOX DEATH SOUN...hUH?
Subaru lashed out angrily. Untill he turned out and noticed that the twins were watching him, however this time, it wasn't out of terror, but out of pity.
"Sister, Sister, it appears our guest has got some stuff going on"
"Rem, Rem, I agree, there are definitely deeper mental issues in play here"
How Subaru evaded that? shall remain an eternal mystery.
What Tha Hell
Act 1 pt1: You Could Do That The Whole Time?
At this point in time, it'll be an overstatement to say that Aliyah was leading it well. The reason is because...
Ino Yamanaka: "So tell me Aliyah, Are you gonna do it? Are you gonna do it? Are you gonna do it? Are you gonna do it? Are you gonna do it?"
Sakura Haruno: "Come on Ino, just give her a break."
Temari Nara: "Yeah."
Ino Yamanara: "Give her a break? From what? It's a simple question isn't it? So what's it gonna be Aliya? You gonna do it, or not?"
Aliyah was scratching her head in irritation, all of the girls, knowing full well that how powerful she was, were worried she was going to blow a casket. Well, everyone except for Ino, who just looked at the conflicted 1 year old with anticipation.
Their concerns worsened when they noticed sparks of electricity coursing through her fingers.
Ino: "So?"
Sakura: "Ino hush."
Aliyah: "OKAY FINE, YOU WIN OKAY I'M GONNA BANG MATTIN. ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?"
Ino: "Joy."
She replied sheepishly.
Aliyah turned to look at Temari and Sakura. Both were wide-eyed. Their pupils as round as a star, and white as a chalk. She felt so embarrassment at this point that despite her entire face turning red, she instantly vanished from the site where they sat in a spark.
*We had that coming* (3)
Sakura, Ino and Temari thought simultaneously in their head.
Meanwhile, Aliya appeared in an alleyway on the other side of the leaf. She continued to walk through the alley, until she had a slight ruffling sound. This when she remembered something she'd been wanting to confront. After her fight with Naruto and Sasuke, Aliyah had a stalker.
He was following Aliya from the shadows for some reason, despite how unnecessary it was, keeping an eye on her. Even now, in the alleyway, Aliya could see him pretending to be some sort of genius.
She disappeared on the spot, giving the staler a chance to come to the clear. The stalker was none other than Konohamaru of course, who admitted to Kakashi that she had fallen head ever hills with Aliya.
Remember, Konohamaru may not look it, but he is 15, making him two years younger than Aliya. Which makes it less creepy than it could be.
"I guess she's gone"
Konohamaru spoke in a soft voice. Just as he was speaking, he felt a hand on his shoulders, followed by what sounded like flashes of lightning behind him.
"You guessed wrong ninja Santa"
Konohamaru shook in fear as he figured out who it was. The flashed were a result of Aliya eyes illuminated by lightning.
"The can only be one stalker's anthem, because that's the amount the world can handle, one. I will make sure to alleviate anyone who inspires the next. Do you understand me?"
"Yyyyyyyes m...mmmmam, l...loud and clear"
Aliya leaned closer to his ear.
"Scoot"
She whispered
Konohamaru used this chance to run away from the scene.
"Did you really have to scare him to that extent?"
Naruto asked, as he appeared out of nowhere behind the Mizerkian (read "Super Transcendent" to know more)
Accompanying him was Sasuke Uchiha, his best friend and rival.
"No, I guess not"
Naruto shrugged and shook his head at the response.
"What are you guys doing here anyway?"
She asked.
"Well, we just wanted to thank you for sparring, at this point we'd be more than ready to confront any upcoming threats."
Naruto responded.
"You said you wanted to ask us some questions about our powers right?"
Aliya thought about it for a while.
2 Minutes Later
"I am Sasuke of the Uchiha. I wield the chakra element of fire and lightning. My true power is derived from my bloodline, the Uchiha bloodline, I am currently the only surviving member. This power manifests itself in the form of an ocular phenomenon called sharingan. The sharingan allows me to read and predict the moves of opponents, thereby allowing me to have an upper hand in hand to hand combat. It also allows me to manipulate the minds of others through illusions, we call it genjutsu here. There are many other attributes that accompany this power, but I think it's best if Naruto explains his first."
"Okay"
Aliya said.
She was paying close attention to what both of them were saying as she had found all of this interesting.
"I am Naruto Uzumaki, of the Uzumaki clan of course, although not completely since my father's last name was Namikaze so I'm half Uzumaki? I guess? I can only use wind style. As for my power, well, I'm not exactly that informed about the clan, but from what I know, my clan possesses larger banks of chakra than most clans. They also excelled in sealing jutsu, but I don't know any of those since I wasn't taught any. I also possess the ability to summon multiple clones of myself, due to my enormous chakra of course. Upon that, I'm also what you call a jinchuriki. I have a tailed beast named Kurama inside me called Kurama, whose power boosts my own to make my jutsu even more powerful"
"You know, the way you talk makes you less impressive than you actually are"
"I know"
Naruto responded, embarrassed. To which Aliyah just smirked.
"Anyway..."
Sasuke proceeded.
"As for the attributes, there is another stage to my power, this is called mangyeko. Every single mangyeko has different special abilities, there are some that do not have these abilities however, like my own mangyeko. However, all Mangyeko have one similarity, they can all summon a giant avatar known as sussano. The only reason why I have a special ability is because of my brother. It's called amaterasu, and it allows me to create black flames that cannot be put out."
Aliyah took a few minutes to process this. After that, she realised something.
"Wait a minute, that's not all that happened, there were other abilities that you guys used that you didn't mention"
"Those were the sage of six paths' ability. I have the six paths of the sage of six paths, and Naruto here has the sage part of the sage of six paths."
"Hmm, I see, so this rabbit hole goes deeper than I thought it does, please, explain more."
Aliya spoke.
"You see, the ninja creed was created by a man known as Hagoromo Otsutsuki, also known as the sage of six paths. The six paths mentioned refers to the rinnegan, an ocular ability special to him, with six unique abilities named after the six paths of the cycle of reincarnation. The sage part is due to his body's ability to absorbed unprocessed chakra, or nature energy. An ability which he then perfected through the all the nine tailed beasts, or ten tails, to create six paths sage mode, which Naruto here has"
"Okay"
Aliya responded.
"My sage mode allows me strengthen the chakra I already have, allowing me to use jutsu I'd usually struggle in with ease. Six paths sage mode not only amplifies it further, as it can connect me to the nature energy of the entire planet or something, but it also gives me various other abilities such as levitation and these things called truth seeker orbs, which can nullify all jutsu. It also gives me the ability to use all five chakra natures, including shadow and light styles"
"As for my Rinnegan, like Naruto, it gives me the ability to use all five chakra natures, including light and shadow, and it allows me to use any and all jutsu. However, I can't use light and shadow simultaneously, only six paths sage jutsu can do that, the last time it was used, it was when Hagoromo created the tailed beasts from the ten tails. As for the six paths, let's see if I can remember them clearly? There the Deva, which is the easiest to use, it allows one to manipulate gravitational forces, you could create your own gravitational fields to form small planets, an example is the moon. There's the Animal path, which allows you to summon demonic immortal animals to aid you. The Human path, which allows you to extract the souls and memories of others. The Preta path, which absorbs all jutsu. The Naraka path, which can be used to summon the king of hell to your aid. Finally, there's the hardest one to use, the Ashura path, which allows you to conjure extra or mechanise them into weapons of your time"
"Woah that is a lot, especially you Sasuke"
"Oh yeah, that's not he can do, he also has this ability called amenotejikara, which allows him to shift between dimension"
Aliyah was puzzled and stunned by that statement, how tha heck did he not even thing about that? She felt like a gigantic idiot, it was so overwhelming that she could couldn't contain her shaking. Naruto and Sasuke saw this and where immediately weirded out.
"Ehh, Are you okay Aliyah"
Naruto asked with concern.
"Hey Mr Uchiha, did you say you can shift between spaces?"
Aliya asked.
"Yes"
"That means you can move between dimensions"
"Ye..."
"AND YOU COULD DO THAT THE WHOLE TI..."
Act 1 pt 2: Behold I am hear. I mean here!
Rezero World
"That familiar ceiling again"
Were Subaru's first words as she woke up from the bed 5 days earlier.
"Sister, sister, I think our guest is still half asleep"
"Rem, Rem, for someone his age, it's sad to see how out of it he is"
Subaru gazed at the people behind the voices, it was the twins.
As he stood right up, he felt a sudden pain flaring up in his chest. The twin, out of worry, rushed closer to check on him. This gave Subaru the perfect chance to confirm something.
On his previous shift, he remembered something holding his hands in his sleep. At first he thought it was Mattin, until he realised that he probably would've amputated it after doing so, since he thinks he's a pervert.
Fortunately, it was actually the twins, which brought him relief, although that isn't how the twins saw it, as they immediately accused him of being a masochist. He shrugged it off, approached them, and reached his hand out of a handshake whilst suggesting they become friends.
Emilia entered the scene to check on Subaru, and while they were laughing, strange occurrences started.
It started with Ram noticing that Rem's hair was flying, Subaru noticed that. Then strange wind s appeared outside, it felt like a vortex was forming. The four went outside, where they were met by Roswaal and Beatrice, who were at the now red sky.
"What tha hell is going on?"
Subaru asked.
"Do we look like we know?"
"Cut the burns Miss Stiltskin"
Subaru answered Beatrice, who just shrugged with a soft "hmm" and left.
"Behold mortals, divinity approaches"
"Divinity?" (2)
Ram Rem responded to the monstrous voice that addressed them. It was trampling, and demonic at the same time, like a thousand people speaking at the same time with different voices.
For a second Subaru was gonna buy his charade, until suddenly, he made a slipup.
"Tremble in fear, mortal beings, for I am a hare, hear, I mean here"
Well then, I guess that clears things for everyone.
"Err"
Everyone besides Subaru responded.
"I guess the poser finally managed to master the art of the dramatic entrance"
"I can hear you meathead"
So after screwing up, Mattin cleared the sky, revealing himself behind the clouds as the sky slowly returned to blue.
He descended to the ground and formally introduced himself, of course it was all bullsh...
"Greetings mortals, I am Mattin Harmilan, sent from the heavens by the gods to supervise Mr Natsuki's actions, sorry for the inconvenience, I get carried away sometimes"
They responded with confused stares, without a clue at this point. This was more apparent with Subaru.
"Dude, are you okay?"
"I'm fine thank you for asking"
"Dude, stop acting like a light novel NPC, no one cares how you behave"
"I'll rip your head off if you keep talking simp"
Mattin responded sheepishly.
"So was that your power in display just now Mattin?"
"Of course it was, impressed"
Mattin responded to Emilia.
"If that's the case, then why didn't you minimise the effect, does that mean you can't control your own power?"
A tick mark developed on Mattin's smiling face, before slowly fading away.
"Hey Emilia?"
"What is it?"
"Knock Knock?"
"Who's there?"
"My back, it wants you to get off it"
Mattin answered, returning to his normal state.
"Enough of this, hey blockhead, come on, I'm hungry, let's grab a bite"
Mattin said, earning a shock from the rest of the residents, as he pulled Subaru to the mansion by the back of his jersey.
The two finally got to the mansion, where they began feasting, Subaru requested to be worker in the mansion.
He then left with Mattin to a secluded area, were they discussed what Subaru was planning, which involved gaining trust from the other residents of the mansion. This is where Mattin explained that his speech errors in his fake emergence came from the "Bill Wurtz 'no' effect" as a result of the Rezero world implanting limitations in his eye.
A Few Hours Later
There he is, lying on the grass out of exhaustion, this is Subaru, on his first stages of panicking and intense strain, Mattin could see it slowly bubbling to the surface. He had a good plan, but his metaphysical state was all messed up. But Mattin refrained from helping him. Maybe this was gonna be Eustress, to help him improve.
This is where he met and conversed with Puck. Puck explained the different between Emilia's power and the power of a magic user. Before helping Subaru unlock his magical potential by revealing his magical element, which was a bummer for him as it turned out to be shadow.
"Too bad man"
Mattin P.O.V
I was right, it was too bad, especially considering the limited and miniscule abilities that Emilia listed.
The shadow technic that I know is completely different. I'm pretty sure they're talking about is an actually shadow, as in, the normal light novel bullsh*t kind. And not the well flashed out kind that's composed of all the colours of the universe absorbed in one body therefore linking it to the mould that shapes reality, the normal one that makes more sense.
Let me guess, their light is one that extinguishes evil for righteousness, and one pure of freaking heart can attain it, again, light novel bulls... They probably don't know about the true light that reflects the colours bound in the darkness, thereby breathing life unto the mould, the normal one that isn't nonsense.
It's funny how they gloat so much when they win. It's like an employee on his first day. You know what? I think I'll just watch them for now.
End of P.O.V
"So Mattin, would you mind telling us your abilities?"
Puck asked excitedly.
"I use light and shadow magic, also known as yin and yang technique"
"Really? And what does it do?"
"This"
Mattin said tapping the ground with the palm of his hand.
The moment he did this, concentric waves formed on waves formed on the surface, forcing the crew to tumble and fall.
It was now time for Subaru to use his magic, which didn't turn out well since uhhh, well, let's just say that things got smoky as he left a pile of black dust after exerting all his magic.
This left Subaru tired, which in retrospect, you can't actually blame him. He is human after all, and he's using his magic for the first time. What was shocking was, despite his stamina nearly being drained out, he still wanted to get up and work.
Despite Emilia and Puck telling him to rest, Subaru insisted on getting up, despite his obvious struggling on the bench.
So Mattin, out of interest, gave him a little bit of strength to power him up with some energy. Which he managed to use for the rest of the day.
Honestly, this guy was a lost cause, but a lost cause with teeth. Mattin was hoping to see him celebrate on the victory line, as he was more than sure that this dude had, and he was going to be the pride of earth.
Next Day
Mattin's P.O.V
Honestly, for crying out loud, this guys doesn't have anything, except PTSD that is. He's literally being the disgrace of earth. All the freak outs and paranoia.
He couldn't even think straight, you could tell just by looking at him that he was absolutely broken. His body was committed to one thing, his mind another.
And what's with him continuously saying I'm hurting. I better not tell him I can read minds, it's for the best.
Setting that aside, I think this is the perfect time to step in and help before this guy kills himself. He is literally a mess right now.
Let me go and find him, I think he's in the kitch...
.
.
.
.
.
WHAT THA!
End of P.O.V
After being found at the kitchen carrying a knife and shaking out of fear, Subaru was being dragged to his room like an idiot.
Once they got there, Mattin told Subaru to sit on the bed. He moved a considerable distance away from him and used pointed one hand towards Subaru pointed towards him and asked him to say cheese.
The moment he said so, a yellow orb was projected out Mattin's hand and hit the middle of Subaru's forehead. Which caused Subaru to collapse, as his facial expression grew towards sadness.
After doing that. Mattin used his fear casting ability to send uneasy signal to Emilia's brain. Emilia felt it, and at the moment, could tell something was wrong. So she ran to the room as fast as she can to attend to him (Subaru).
As for Subaru. The yellow orb literally squeezed all the frustrations and turmoil that had accumulated inside him, forcing him to actually release it externally. All he needed was someone to lean on, henceforth, Emilia is here.
Emilia arrive on the doorstep of the room, and saw Mattin standing there.
"Mattin, what is...?"
"Go, he needs you"
Mattin suddenly disappeared after saying that.
Emilia entered the room and saw Subaru laying on the ground, as if he was lifeless, with tears streaming out of his eyes.
Emilia went on and sat next to him. She took his head, and placed it on her lap, before gently caressing his hair as Subaru wept himself to sleep.
When Rem entered and saw this happening, she was now sure that Subaru could be trusted. And hence the 5 day death cycle of death was broken.
"YOU MADE ME DROOL OVER THE GIRL I LIKE"
"OH shut it shut-in, I helped you out, so you should be grateful to me you prick"
"Making me produce snort is not something to be grateful for"
"Oh no, the snort part was all you, Stalin, I had no hand in that"
"Enough with the doctoral references, KIM JONG UN"
"WHAT'D YOU CALL ME"
"WILL BOTH OF YOU JUST SHUT UP, AND STOP MANSIONING NAMES OF WEIRD PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW"
Beatrice replied angrily to Subaru and Mattin, who were arguing. The response was enough to scare both of them to silence.
Anyway. The two preceded to ask about the curse.
"It's the little dog that bit you"
Mattin immediately responded.
Beatrice and Subaru responded by giving Mattin strange looks.
"Huh" (2)
Act 2 Pt 1: Bill Wurtz's Universal Law
So yeah, last night, something was off.
It was currently morning and Subaru was patting Mattin's shoulder. He seemed depressed. Seemed, as Ram and Rem stared at the awkward sight of the half god who made a 'spectacle' of his entrance look down.
Emilia entered the scene.
He saw what was happening, and immediately asked for details.
This is last night record of what happened.
Last Night
Mattin's P.O.V
So I just saved the dude's freaking life and what he gives me ain return, is lecture?
A lecture? Me?
I did not remain frozen in time as a statue for a centillion years for this. I desire retribution.
And how dare he call me Kim Jong Un.
"WILL BOTH OF YOU JUST SHUT UP, AND STOP MANSIONING NAMES OF WEIRD PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW"
Geez chill out girl, what, you wanna paralyse someone bleed with that tone.
Anyway, Subaru was saying something about the curse. I knew where the curse came from, and who brought it upon them. So I blurted it out loud, only to receive less than Stella reviews from them.
"It was the dog that bit you"
I kept repeating every time they responded with a 'huh'. This went on for five minutes, until I realised something was off.
Subaru's P.O.V
He, didn't save me, he didn't save me, he didn't save me.
HE
DIDN'T
SAVE
MEEEEE!
I swear to god this dude be annoying as hell right about now. Snort, I'm a freaking teenager, teenagers don't snort on their crushes.
And Stalin? Really?
Huh, says the guy whose parents were literally universal communists.
He and his binding boundlessness are worthy of a doctoral title. KIM JONG UN.
"WILL BOTH OF YOU JUST SHUT UP, AND STOP MANSIONING NAMES OF WEIRD PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW"
Geez girl chill, what? You wanna make someone break with that pitch?
So after that, we got straight into business and I gotta say, this is turning out well.
Well it was turning out well until.
"It was the you thab tit dog"
Well that just happened.
I thought he was joking with me, but I noticed something was off, his speech patterns weren't lining with what he saying.
"dg bat tht god thae wis iut"
Okay this was not right.
It continued for five minutes, until even he couldn't take it and had to rest.
Now
"It's Bill Wurtz's universal law"
"Bill's whaaa..."
Emilia asked, requesting Mattin to repeat his word.
"It's Bill's law of Inverse, it's something he calls the Wurtz phenomena, every time he does something major to the stream of time, the universe either slows him down, or stops him entirely. This appears in the form of a YouTube sketch 'history of the entire world'. It's a way of reminding him that the universe has balance and he is interfering with that balance."
Subaru answered Emilia.
"Oh, okay then"
Act 2 pt 2: M of 3, S of 2
"Aaaaaaaaand Victory!"
"Victory!"
Radio Calisthenics, in a fantasy world, neat.
Subaru was in the village teaching and showing the villagers basic exercises and fitness workouts. Which was as weird as it was lively, as Rem and Ram describe it.
The twins had just brought a barrel of seasonings and other kitchen requirements for restocking. There was nothing else left but to watch the teenage dude do his thing.
Mattin on the other hand was scanning the area, trying to identify the curse. Not that it would help. He already knew, what he was doing was simply an act to confirm it up-close. Also, the Rezero universe, through his link with the universal eye, stopped him from telling him by interchanging words in his speech.
For some reason, Wurtz phenomena had grown quite strong on Mattin to a point where he felt like the universe was telling him "Shut YOU STUPIS ASS MOUTH" indirectly.
I guess it's because after almost exorcising the witch out of Subaru, the universe, that wants the witch inside Subaru for some reason, was made aware of the threat that the half god was, and was/were henceforth forced to tighten it/their grip on him.
Anyway, while searching for it, Mattin sensed traces of the curse coming closer, and it was bigger than most. He followed it until he caught up to a group of kids carrying a puppy. Subaru was among the children. When he tried to pet it, it seemed pissed. Mattin was aware that the puppy was cursed, and that it planned to bite Subaru and the children. So from a distance he tried to do something.
Subaru, while playing the puppy, noticed a bald spot on its head, just when he was about to touch it, the puppy returned to its angry state. However, before it could even bite him, the puppy began to squirm in fear, aimless turning its head at different direction. It shook itself of the child's grip and ran back the way it came.
"Huh? I guess it was got too scared."
Subaru said.
Of course, the puppy's fear was a result of Mattin using his fear casting ability (read Dragon ball Super Transcendent to know more).
"Well then, time for me to hit the hay. Huh?"
Subaru muttered, he noticed Mattin in the sky just above the forest, looking down at something. It was the puppy, and Mattin was starring it down as a sign of his dominance.
"Hey Mattin, time to go!"
Subaru called, however, Mattin just looked back at him.
"I'll meet you at home, see me at Beatrice's dibs, there's something I need to tell you when we get there"
Mattin said before disappearing.
Dusk
Subaru finally arrived at the mansion, carrying the barrel. That's when he met up with Roswaal as he was about to leave.
Subaru remembered that Mattin wanted to meet up with him. So after Roswaal flew away, Subaru dashed straight into the room, where astoundingly, he saw Beatrice sitting across Mattin, playing chess.
"Checkmate I suppose"
"I will never trust the queen's gambit ever again, this is the 12th time I've lost"
"It's not a bad move if you use it correctly I suppose"
"Yeah, you're just jolly cause you won"
Beatrice responded with a smirk.
"Uhhh, Mattin?"
Subaru called from a distance.
Mattin turned around and faced him.
"Oh, Subaru, you're here, it took you long enough, I actually thought you had fainted along the way"
Mattin answered.
"Well thank heavens I didn't now, why'd you call me?"
"Oh yeah that. Okay, grab the twins we're going back to the village"
"What? What about me, aren't I cursed too?"
"No, you aren't"
Mattin responded.
Subaru: "Oh yeah, and how do you know?"
Mattin: "Because I know where the curse comes from, it's the puppy"
Subaru: "What? Why didn't you...
Mattin raised an eyebrow at Subaru before he could finish.
Subaru: Oooooooh right, nevermind.
Act 2 pt 3: Banishment
Night
Mattin had just flown Subaru and Rem to the centre of the village, where they encountered what looked like the purge. Every villager watching from the windows as 5 witchfiends attacked a bystander. But before they could finish the job...
"Hakai"
The five beast vanished into purple dust. The villager appeared to be wounded. Mattin approached him and used his energy to heal his wounds instantly.
Tonight was special in a way, as many, many witchfiends could be heard roaring throughout the entire area.
As the three walked towards the cursed forest, they noticed small footprints heading in, and read eyes peaking at them.
"Someone should stay here and watch the village"
"Good idea"
Rem responded to Subaru.
"No need"
Mattin ascended to the sky, and joined his hands together, which resulted in a pink force field surrounding the town, before descending back to Rem and Subaru.
"This should protect them from harm, come-on"
Mattin jumped over the small blockade before them. Before Subaru could cross, he noticed Rem carrying what looked like a chain, with a sparky metallic orb at the end.
"Uhh, Rem-rin, is that"
"It's for protection"
"But it looks l..."
"It's for protection'
Rem insisted before jumping the fence, followed by Subaru.
Rem sensed Mattin and trekked Mattin, and using his scent, they finally caught up to him.
He was with six of the kids. It seemed that he had healed all of them. But they were all still asleep, albeit soundly.
"Rem, take these little brats to the village, they'll be safe there. You can catch up with us when you've dropped them off"
"Right!"
Rem said.
"Okay Subaru, come with me, I have a plan, and it involves you"
A Few Minutes Later
*This guy better be serious about this*
Subaru though, as he gulped from fear.
Subaru was currently gazing upon one of the children who went missing.
He went up to the child, but the moment he got to them, about ten witchfiends attacked.
Before they could reach him, they were all torn to shreds by a plasma orb that Mattin had commanded.
"That was close"
Mattin said, finally making himself visible and healing the girl, before putting her to sleep like the others.
Just then, more Witchfiends attacked them, and it was here they realised something was off.
"Look, I'm no zoologist, but I know nothing can reproduce that much"
Mattin said.
*They probably did it in preparation for my arrival, how they did it so quickly, only the universe knows*
Mattin continued in his head.
The witchfiends charged.
Mattin conjured multiple blast to attack and disintegrate a handful of the beasts. He hit the ground with his hands, causing concentric waves to form on the surface, resulting in the beast losing their balance and tripping over. The beast noticed a surge of pink energy lifting them up from the ground.
This was Mattin picking them up with his power, as he raised up his hands.
He clenched them into fists, and all the beasts were crushed to death, as their blood stained the floor.
Subaru looked at Mattin. He could see him panting. Another witchfiend attacked him from behind, but it was immediately vanquished by a wrecking, as Rem finally arrived.
*Okay, I've had enough of this place*
Mattin said angrily.
"Okay, Subaru, Rem, please carry, the kid home, I'm gonna destroy the forest"
Rem and Subaru were left shocked by the half god's words.
"Wait, Mattin, we have to act carefully, we don't know who else is here"
Subaru responded.
"So what I'm hearing is no then, well, okay, it's fine, I can just repair you when I'm finished.
Mattin raised both his hand to the sky, and immediately, a gigantic orb full of destructive power.
However, at that very moment,
Mattin couldn't understand what had just happened, but it had something to do with his power shutting down.
Suddenly, Mattin unwillingly started to float in the air. A huge ringing was head echoing across the sky, followed by an array of magic circle covering the sky. Each produced black chains that wrapped around Mattin's body as they pulled him towards a portal that lay further above him. After seconds of struggling, Mattin and the chains vanished.
Subaru and Rem watched the spectacle speechless. But they could do nothing but run at this point, as they puppy appeared with more beast. Just as they were running, a rockslide approached them from behind, and it knocked both of them of the dust road and into an open area, where they were surrounded by beast. Little did the beasts know they'd done it this time.
Subaru didn't know how long he lay unconscious, but when he got up, he was greeted by what sounded like maniacal laughter. He wiped his eyes and stood up, and what he saw was a sight to fear and behold.
Rem's demonic form active, a blue horn protruding from her forehead as she ripped the beasts to shreds. This is point where Subaru discovered the scary truth. Rem, is a demon.
Act 2 pt 4: I accept it, I don't
Now
Mattin's P.O.V
Wait a min...
What tha hell man?
Did you really have to use Exile?
Only I should use that, it's part of my unification power. Well, it can't be helped, at least it was much cooler when I used it on the celestial of the dragon verse to banish to Zeno-oh's world. In other words, I'm getting a taste of my own medicine.
"Mattin Harmilan, stop"
What tha, who the hell are you. If you gonna make a spectacle out of me, then at least have the balls to show up.
Also, I notice my body is meeting, am I in the metaphysical state?
I know you ain't no sprite. You can't full me. Rezero universe.
"So, do you refuse to stop?"
I'll stop when I want to freak, and besides? What's in it for me?
"Mattin, if you cannot stop, then he will come, and he will make sure you stop"
Ohhhh, I see.
You're wrong about one thing, I and that guy are vest pals, and how do you know about him, I thought information about the overseer was disclosed to only me, the dragon verse, and the other verses that elected him.
"I am one of those who elected him"
Why? He's my best pal, you can't make him hurt me.
"And that is why I precisely chose him, like everyone else. Rick is a mess, but a mess that can do what it wants, he has no irrational attachments, at least not those that slow him. He's a destroyer and creator of worlds, a true god, neither vile nor pure. Many who tried to save themselves by claiming to be his allies have known nothing but betrayal, as he BROUGHT THEM ALL TO DUST"
Well I...
"And you mentioned his name to that human, a being of the anime verse. You put the last of his blood at risk."
That doesn't matter, as long as I didn't mention the Apprentice, and his (the overseer's) last name. A name I notice you even fear to mention as well.
"Oh? And why do you think that is so?"
Well, for starters, even without the authority of the overseer's title, Rich can still take you. I mean I can, why can't he? Hmm?
.
.
.
Wait, did you just shrug. So you do feel burns don't you. Although I never thought he had a heart in the end. I thought the only thing that drove him to keep living was sarcasm, how he satirises tragedy, most of which he causes across the westerverse. What was the name of the girl who made it all happen again? Hanji Zoe?
"That is correct, despite his non caring nature, he's fatherly treatment towards her was enough to convince us that Rick is not only a monster, but a monster with senses. Would you let him come here, even though you know what a nightmare he could be? Just cease your interference with the main flow and this will end quickly"
N-o no
"Very well then you half god abomination, since you refuse to cooperate, I shall keep you here, for endless space and time to beyond, where none can see or find you. And suffer loneliness you shall, forever"
Or yeah, well will see about that big guy.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
End of P.O.V
Meanwhile, Rem just got saved by Subaru. But his near death state as a result was enough to revoke her demon state once more.
Before that however, she returned to with an unconscious Subaru to the village, where he was healed, before returning to the forest to kill all the beasts that implanted a curse on him.
She currently loses control at the forest, as she continuously kills beast after beast, every kill adding to the surging sadism of the state she is in.
Witchfiend! Witchfiend! Witchfiend! Witchfiend! Witchfiend! Witchfiend! Witchfiend! Witchfiend! Witchfiend! Witchfiend! Witchfiend!
She continuously utters, with every step driving her further insanity.
More beast approach her. But all it takes are the sharp blades of wind from her scream. As she falls to her knees and screams.
An energy, not of hers, covers her entire body and turns it blue. Time freezes, before unfreezing, as large amount of ice crystals stab through all the morbeasts surrounding her.
All of this, began about 10 hours ago.
This is the time it took for Subaru to recover back at the village, get assistance, and look for her once more.
Alas, nearly all beast where dead, and Rem was just lying there unconscious.
Rem's P.O.V
It's no use, no matter what I do, I'll never be as good as her, and because of that someone has to suffer.
What am I doing wrong?
.
.
.
.
Huh? what was that? Why is everything becoming bright?
"Okay now that's just painful"
.
.
This is, my childhood.
Why am I a baby again?
Ram.
: To us of the demon clan, twins are taboo.
Wait, is that the chief? Have I been reborn somehow? Or is it just a nightmare?
: Please wait chief I beg of you.
Mother?
: ENOUGH, to protect our pride as a race and to insure it's continued purity, we must dispose of them. Such is our custom.
Or right, I just cried like the baby I was while my sister's amazing power shielded us.
"Well I guess you have a good memory"
Who are you!?
"Who do you think I am? Or in normal terms, what do you think I am?
Huh?
"Hmm, let's go further shall we. This waterfall test, is this another example of the 'weakness' you were talking about? huh? Why do you look so glum?"
Enough of this fiend, did you bring me here to taunt me?
"Fiend? Okay listen here general Blue Waffle, first off, I didn't bring you anywhere you did. And if you knew why I'm here, you'd be washing my feet right now, well, if I had any to begin with BUT YOU GET THE POINT."
Well then why not just get on with it.
"Because you need conviction, and the only way to get it is to take a trip through memory lane, so for crying out loud, just settle down, shutto de virgin, and listen cause this is to your best interest."
.
.
.
Very well then disembodied voice, proceed.
.
.
"Thank you, now, let's continue. Slot number 2, waterfall-sama. Please, if you could be so kind as to explain this"
I was trying to see if there was a chance that I could also do what she could, but things didn't turn out the way I desired.
.
Hmm
.
Fortunately, my sister taught me it doesn't matter what others think, I should be more happy with who I am instead.
"Oh, how sweet. But I guess you never took the tip did you? Slot number 3, el-kitchen."
.
.
: Mom?
: Yes? What is it Rem?
: I've decided that I'm going to cook dinner tomorrow.
That's not what was happening here.
"Oh yeah? It wasn't, cause I remember you almost getting soaked by a storm for this"
Well, I...
I was uhm.
"Yeah you're not hiding anything dear. And besides, I think it was for the best, you actually cooked, and they found it delicious, on the other hand, what I do hate, IS THIS. SLOT NUMBER 4, el-doo doo head. After some dumb nightmare, you woke up, your sister grabbing unto your arm and comforting you with his love. It was after this you learned to accept the situation. Knowing full well that you can never surpass her, your goal to do so deceased, because you knew that it doesn't matter what others think, you could still be yourself and walk behind your sister, whose strong and loving shadow will shield you from all criticism"
Yes, and I find no problem in that ideal. If you do then it's none of my concern.
"Once again, that isn't what happened, again, first of, you shouldn't be let anywhere near conventions of introverted people with low self-esteem because after whatever motivational speech you give, the only thing they'll be inspired to do is to go on quests to find ways to painlessly kill themselves. Secondly, bro, you're not finding solace in any of this, you're quitting"
I WAS NOT QUITING.
"Yes you were, and what's even more dreadful, is that even today, you still want to find ways to be better than her"
AND HOW WOULD YOU KNOW THAT STRANGER?
"Because you still feel the guilt of that day don't you blue!? You didn't reach out, if you were okay, you would have learned that it wasn't your fault. The entire reason why you and I stuck in your memories is because you're associating the situation we're facing now, with Subaru, isn't it, BLUE?"
.
.
.
.
You're right, I'm a failure, I'm nothing but a failure.
.
.
.
"Hey don't you dare cry on me"
.
"Huuuh. Okay, listen here, I think you got this all wrong okay? When your big sis said you shouldn't let people's opinion get to your head, she meant it to make you embrace yourself, not quit. You don't give start things and not finish them, you don't quit. There's nothing that comes out of quitting, besides knowing that you didn't finish. Ever since Waterfall-sama, you've made it your goal to surpass her, well, finish it"
Huh...
"The only thing that will result in you constantly making yourself inferior with guilt, is crap like this. You started it finish it, and when you do it, do it to be the best, not be better than other people, but to be the best for you. I think that is what your sister meant. So, tell me, are you ready to take the mantle?"
.
.
.
YES, YES I AM. I WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO BECOME THE BEST.
.
.
"Hmm, good choice. Now, wasn't there something you wanted to ask me? I can only make you stronger if you know, but you have to ask me first"
.
.
.
Who are you?
.
.
.
.
"I am nothing and something. A substance of power that remains from an eroded timeline. An unintentional gift, I now give myself to you. My existence is now yours demon girl. You may use me as you see fit to save your friends. Will you accept me into you?
.
.
.
Yes, come into me.
.
.
.
"Good choice. We are one, now and forever. Rem, twin sister of Ram, welcome to divinity."
End of P.O.V
Act 3 pt 1: What Tha Hell!
Hours have passed ever since Subaru and Ram found Rem unconscious.
It was night time and Subaru was currently carrying Rem as he and Ram ran across the forest, trying to escape the increase numbers of morbeasts in the area.
"Hey Balls, head to the right of the broken tree up ahead! Puck up the pace!"
Ram ordered.
"Don't be unreasonable I'm running as fast as I can!"
Subaru answered.
"W...what just happened? Where are we?"
Rem spoke in Subaru's arms, which shocked and relieved Ram and Subaru at the same time.
"Rem! Thank god you're finally awake"
"Thank goodness, you really are a handful you know?"
Subaru and Ram answered simultaneously.
Suddenly, a morbeast attacked them from the front. Ram took it out using his Al-fula spell, as they both ran and ducked under a bush.
"Rem, which way do we have to run to get outside the Barrier?"
"We should run left at full speeds? What's your plan?"
"I'll act as decoy, while you and Rem escape, just be sure nothing happens along the way"
Subaru responded to ram.
"But wait, if you do that you'll..."
"Huh?"
Rem stuttered.
Suddenly, a purple shooting star descended from the sky, and fell in the direction of the village.
"I see"
Rem said, smiling.
Subaru looked at her, confused.
"Rem, what're you..."
Before Subaru could finish, Rem chopped Subaru's other shoulder, dislocating it in the process. Rem then took Subaru and put her on top of Ram's back.
"Sister, hurry up to the village, Mr Harmilan is already there, he'll find a way to treat you both, I'll take care of the morbeasts"
Rem said, smiling.
"Rem, listen to me, you don't have to..."
"Don't worry Subaru, I'll be just fine, I know at first I attempted to do things out of guilt. But this time, it's completely different. Don't worry, you just go and heal up, I'll be just fine"
"And why should I believe you, after coming all this way to rescue"
"Because..."
Rem said, rubbing Subaru's head, whilst smiling sheepishly.
"You're the first person to ever go out with me on a date, I could never be so selfish as to let you put yourself in harm's way"
Subaru blushed at Rem's remarks, whilst Ram remained confused.
Rem the looked at her sister.
"You wanted to see me get stronger, didn't you Ram? Well, now is the time, you just have to trust me."
Ram took a minute to think, before finally complying with Rem and escaping with Subaru.
Rem stepped out of the bushes.
She stood in the clear and clenched her fists as they rested to her sides, with her eyes sealed shut.
The beasts charged at her, in their numerous numbers.
She took a deep breath as divine energy bubbled from her body.
Ram was surprised, as all of a sudden, she could not sense her sister's energy from where she was.
On the other hand, the beast were quickly charging at Rem. However, just as they were about to reach her, she opened her eyes, revealing white pupils.
Back At The Village
Mattin fought the universe's bound, and won. However, the result was intense, so intense to a point that she crushed like a shooting star in one of the village farms. Fortunately, there was a resident there who came to pick land him a hand to stand up.
It was the same villager who had given Subaru the sword.
"Are you okay"
"Yeah"
Mattin responded, accepting the hand.
"What happened to you?"
"Nothing, just a minor scuffle"
Just as they were talking the ground began to shake, and a light blue whitish explosion could be seen deep in the forest.
Mattin looked at it, and examined it closely. At first he thought it wasn't a big deal, until he realised the energy was his, but it somehow came from Rem.
So without hesitation. Mattin immediately flew into the forest, leaving the villager behind.
Meanwhile.
Rem could finally feel it, the thing he was talking to in her vision, now fully active.
Powerful surges of energy were surrounding her, slicing the beasts that kept coming close. Until finally, the puppy, now in its true form, charged.
Rem clasped her two fist together.
"And now, BEGONE, EL-HUMA"
Giant spikes of ice immerged from every radius around her, killing every morbeast around her.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
She continued pressing on.
Subaru and Ram and were still running through the forest, now out of words, as they knew something weird was going on. However, they couldn't discuss it further, as they noticed gigantic ice sparks approaching them.
Luckily Mattin arrived at the scene, and picked them up.
"Mattin, thank god, what tha heck happened man?"
"That's not what's important right now, what is important is me figuring out wwWHAT THA HELLLL!"
This was when the three, now levitating in the air, had reached where Rem was.
They were completely stunned by how she looked. Besides being covered by an insane amount of magical energy and Ki, which she somehow has. Rem's hair, and the pupils of her eyes had turned completely white. None of them knew what it was, except for Mattin, who couldn't comprehend what the heck had just happened.
"My goodness, such power"
Mattin looked to the side, and saw Roswaal flying right next to him, peering at Rem.
"Mattin, could you have something to do with this"
Mattin looked back down at Rem.
"I hope not"
Rem, released his fists, and as a results, the ice that now covered the entire forest disappeared, with every morbeast that resided in the forest now killed, never to be seen again.
Both of them descended to the ground, to meet up with Rem. Who was nearly falling unconscious due to amount of energy she had exhausted.
Just as they were running to tend to her. A voice began to boom inside Mattin's head, it was the personification of the Rezeroverse, the same thing he talked with in the metaphysical world.
"This is your fault Mattin?"
*Will you quit it man*
"Listen to me and hear me well. Because of the divine energy you gifted Rem, a demon mind you. You've broken a universal law worth millions more, interfering with the balance of good and evil. The universes shall henceforth bring him. In a matter of hours, he shall arrive to fix everything, the shwifty on and the perverted one"
*Wait wait wait? You can't be serious right? He can't be possibly coming here right? Please tell me you're messing with me? At least hold them off, I can fix everything*
"It's too late half god, you refused to cooperate. You refused and to head my warning. You took me for a joke. And because of your misdeed. THE OVERSEER, RICK SANCHEZ, AND MORTY SMITH, HIS TRUSTED APPRENTICE, ARE HEADED TO THIS DIMENSION"
*Oh god no*
Act 3 Pt 4: Finally Conclusion
And now, with that included, everyone went home.
Rem and Subaru had some alone time, where Rem revealed her history to Subaru.
Subaru managed to cheer him up, and in the process, unbeknownst to him, ignited a spark between him and rem.
"Let's do our best"
"Right"
Rem said, as they now held each other's hands. Suddenly, the sound of tea being sipped was heard, they both looked in the direction that caused it.
They noticed Mattin sitting across them, his legged crossed as she gazed at them with a sheepish smile on his face as he held the small teacup.
"Smooch"
"SHUT UP" (2)
The both of them yelled, their faces red, as Mattin, laughed uncontrollably
"What are you ganging up on me for? You cry-baby.
"I'm NOT A CRY-BABY STOP CALLING ME NAMES"
Subaru retorted back at Mattin.
"Oh really now, remember two days ago, when you went all 'Tommy Waseau' on your crush's lap like 'I am tearing up Lea!'
" Hahahahahaha"
Mattin responded, laughing.
A small chuckle was heard from Rem, who was beside him.
This forced anime tears to stream down Subaru's face, as he couldn't believe Rem was laughing at him, although her laughter only added to her cuteness.
Mattin then turned towards Rem.
"So, I see, you attained divine energy, Rem"
"Yes, it was a gift from the gods, I guess they are good for something after all"
"Yeah, of course, hahahahahahaha"
Mattin said, laughing.
"That's good, that's really good"
Mattin then finished laughing. He then took another sip from his cup of tea, before looking back at her, now with a serious face.
"Drain it"
To be continued
