Chapter 1: Option Two
Welp, it was official: Subaru's life couldn't get any weirder.
It had only been a month after his knighting ceremony. One measly month. One month of relaxation without having to die over and over again, and now he was back at it again.
Or at least he thinks he is.
To be honest, he has no idea what the hell is going on. It started out as a quiet day. Yesterday, he finished showing off his knight status to the rest of the Camps, and he, along with his contracted Spirit, had finally gotten acquainted with their new room in the Miload Mansion.
And then, all of a sudden, while he was enjoying his precious time with his Emilia-tan and Beako, a bright light appeared, promptly zapping him away to some kind of movie theater, like the ones back on Earth. Not only that, but all of his Camp was here, too.
Along with all of his other rival Camps.
"Ta' fuck is happening, my amazin' selfs wasn't in here!" He could hear his friend, Garfiel, getting annoyed about being kidnapped against his own will, which was understandable. Speaking from personal experience, Subaru knew that being abducted was unpleasant.
The next voice he heard was that of his friend, Otto. "Calm down, Garfiel!" Subaru looked to see that the ashen-merchant had his hand over the blond boy's shoulder, trying to calm him down.
"What's the meaning of this?!" growled Ram, eyeing Subaru.
Of course she's blaming me, the black-haired boy thought to himself.
"Now isn't this interestiiiiing…" voiced Roswaal, annoying Subaru to no end. "It appears we've been teleported agaaaaainst our will."
"Shut up, clown, I'm trying to think," groaned Subaru, as he rubbed his head trying to figure out a logical solution to what was going on.
As the majority of the Emilia Camp was gathering their bearings, a certain silver-haired half-elf eyed the rest of the Camps, and saw that a certain blonde was with them as well.
"Hey, Big Sis, Big Bro," Felt waved over to Emilia and Subaru, while smiling. "Glad to see that the two of ya are safe and sound."
"Glad to see that you are doing well, Felt-chan," smiled the amethyst-eyed girl.
As the two of them talked, a certain red-haired knight approached our favorite tracksuit-wearing boy. "It's good to see you once more, Subaru. I'm glad that you and Emilia-sama are safe."
"Hey, Reinhard," the nasty-eyed boy greeted. "Did you guys also get engulfed in the blinding light thing that brought my camp here?"
The Sword Saint nodded. "I couldn't find a way out of here, no matter what I tried. All my strength and my Divine Protections are useless, unfortunately. Sorry."
Subaru's face turned into a grimace. If the Sword Saint wouldn't be to bust out of that thing, then there was not a hope in the world for the rest of them. He started to grit his teeth, when…
"Don't do that, I suppose," he felt his arm getting tugged.
He looked down to see that Beatrice was safe and sound, but her face was that of disappointment. "You were doing it again, in fact."
"Oh, I'm sorry, Beako," he apologized, giving off a weak smile. "It's just that I'm frustrated that we can't get out, and I may have started to panic a bit."
"Do not panic, Subaru-do, everything will be just fine," a fatherly voice spoke. Subaru looked towards the source of the voice to see an elderly man, and a catboy.
"Wilhelm-san? Felix? You're here as well?" he asked.
"Heya, Subaru-kyun! Don't worry, everything will be fyine!" Felix smiled.
Nodding, Subaru looked around to see who else was here with him. So far, he saw Emilia, Beatrice, Garfiel, Otto, Ram, Roswaal, Felt, Reinhard, Wilhelm, and Felix.
Inspecting the area a bit more, he saw Crusch, Anastasia, Julius, Ricardo, Mimi, Tivey, Priscilla, Al, Frederica, Petra, Meili… and a sleeping Rem, wearing her maid uniform.
W-what?
CLICK!
Before Subaru could respond, everyone heard the noise. To Subaru, it sounded like the noise of a projector turning on, which was actually correct, given that the screen was now on.
"Hey, guys, look!" Petra exclaimed, pointing at the screen.
Hearing the little maid, everyone was prompted to read what was on the screen. Upon reading it, everyone was confused, with the exception of one knight.
Return by Death Penalty Status: Deactivated.
"Huh?" asked a confused Ricardo.
"What th' heck's 'Return by Death', anyway?" asked Anastasia Hoshin.
"I'm not sure, my lady…" uttered her knight, Julius, still confused.
While everybody else was trying to figure out what the hack they just read, Subaru's face was that of fear, and his mind was going a hundred miles a second. If anyone figured out Return by Death, the Witch of Envy would kill them all. But it also said that the penalty had been deactivated. Was that true? Could he freely speak about it? If so, would he? How would they react? Would they see him as a monster? Fraud? He didn't know, and he was panicking.
What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What-
"SUBARU, STOP THAT!"
Everyone turned around to see that the Great Spirit was tugging at the boy's hand, which was bleeding. Subaru snapped out of his thoughts, and saw that he clenched his hand so deep that his nails were digging into his skin.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, Beako, I didn't mean to –!"
"Hey, guys!" announced Meili. "The words changed again!"
Looking towards the screen, and away from the bleeding knight, they saw…
Effects of the Authority of Gluttony: Deactivated.
"The Authority of Gluttony?" asked Al. "What's that got to do with –"
"Hrrk!" Before the helmeted knight could continue, the sound of Crusch Karsten gasping and collapsing on the floor was heard by the entire audience.
"Crusch-sama!" yelped Felix, as he rushed towards his mistress.
"Are you injured?" asked Wilhelm.
"No, I'm fine, Wilhelm…" Crusch responded, before her eyes widened as she realized something. "Wait… Wilhelm? Felix. Julius. Anastasia. Emilia… Subaru and Rem!"
"What are you babbling about?" yawned an annoyed Priscilla Barielle.
"I-I REMEMBER EVERYTHING!" Crusch yelled to the heavens. "I remember the Royal Selection, our battle against the White Whale, Gluttony… Rem!"
"Wait, if you remember her… then that means –!" Before Subaru could finish responding, he heard a soft yawn come from behind him, a yawn from a voice he recognized.
Slowly turning around, he saw her. Blue, short hair. Beautiful skin. A fine figure. Her eyes were open, open for the first time in a month, staring towards him and everyone else.
"Subaru-kun…?"
For a moment, everyone was silent, as memories of the forgotten maid rushed in. Ram remembered her little sister, Emilia remembered the girl she talked about with Subaru, Garfiel remembered his childhood friend, Frederica remembered her student, Crusch remembered her ally in battle, Roswaal remembered one of his best maids.
Everyone remembered Rem.
And then the silence broke.
"Rem…" Subaru asked, trying to make sure if what he was seeing was real.
"Subaru-kun…" she responded back.
"Sissy…?" Ram whispered under her breath.
"Holy shit, Rem…" Garfiel uttered, remembering his friend.
Before anyone could say anything further, Subaru immediately rushed towards the blue maid, and grabbed her, hugging her out of joy that she was back and out of fear that she would disappear.
"OH MY GOD, REM!" he bawled out. "REM, REM, REM, REM!"
"Uh, Subaru-kun?!" Rem exclaimed, both confused and embarrassed at what was happening.
"I'm sorry for everything! I'm sorry I rejected you, I'm sorry that I couldn't save you, I'm sorry that I let you get erased from existence! If only I was stronger, faster, smarter, then…"
As his tears kept falling out, everyone else looked at him with a sense of pity. Being the only person who remembered the forgotten girl must have been eating away at him.
"Uh, Subaru-kun?" Rem asked, trying to figure out what was going on. Eventually, she gave up, and decided to comfort her hero instead. "There, there, it's okay…"
After a few minutes of tears, and multiple head pats, Subaru eventually calmed down.
"Feeling better?" Rem asked, still holding Subaru.
"Yeah," he spoke, despite his sore throat from all the crying. Despite that, he asked, "What's the last thing you remember?"
"I was attacked by two Sin Archbishops, who managed to wound Crusch-sama. I did my best to stop the bleeding and defend her from those monsters," she scowled. "I was in close-combat with the ragged-looking one, when… everything went black."
Everyone in the room looked down in sadness as they knew that must have been the moment she fell comatose. Looking around the room, Rem wanted to know what happened.
Subaru sighed, as he gave her an answer. "The one who caused you to black out was the Sin Archbishop of Gluttony. When he beat you, he used his Authority to… do something bad."
Rem stared at Subaru with worry. Her heart was racing and she was starting to think that she might have died. "What happened to me?"
Subaru looked away in shame, before he continued. "You were removed from everyone's minds. No one remembered who you were. Gluttony's powers made you fall into a state of sleep akin to a coma. Like so many others, you were left to die, with no one to remember you…"
Tears started to fall from her face when she asked, "Did.. did you…?"
"NO!"
Rem flinched when he said that, and looked towards her sister for an explanation.
"Barusu was the only one in the entire world that could still remember who you were," answered Ram. "He had some sort of ability that prevented his memories from being erased. He kept you by his side and explained who you were to everyone."
Now all of the crying and apologizing from before made sense. The blue-haired oni couldn't help but smile that her hero was able to remember her. While it still hurt to know that everyone else forgot her, she was still glad that there was at least a small silver lining.
"So… where are we?" she asked.
"Yeah, about that…" Garfiel sighed, rubbing his head. "We don't know."
"Oh, well –"
"I hate to interrupt," spoke Frederica. "But the window has changed once more."
Everyone, now including Rem, turned to see that there was now a new piece of writing.
Final Guests Arriving: Now.
"Oh, so we weren't the only ones?" asked Mimi.
"I guess so," answered Ricardo, with his hand on his chin.
Before anyone else could speak, a bright light appeared once again, and once it dissipated, two more individuals appeared, making it twenty-five in total.
The last two were a man and a woman. The man wore an orange jacket with a light green shirt and dark green pants, while also having a very familiar-looking hair-style, and glasses. Meanwhile, the woman had brown hair in a braid, wore a yellow apron and a light purple shirt, and had very nasty-looking eyes.
It didn't take much to figure out who's parents those were.
The man and woman looked around for a bit, trying to figure out whether what they were seeing was real or not, taking a good look at each and every individual in the room, until finally, their eyes settled down onto a single tracksuit-wearing boy.
Three different pairs of eyes met each other, while the rest of the room held their breaths.
"Oh my god," whispered Subaru.
He got up from where Rem was, and slowly walked up towards the couple, making sure that, just with Rem, he was actually seeing something real.
"Mom…? Dad…?"
The man and woman looked towards their little boy, their faces shifting from despair, to hope, to fear, and finally to joy, as their eyes started to leak tears as they grabbed their child.
""SUBARU!""
"OH MY GOD, IT'S REALLY YOU! MOM! DAD!"
""SUBARU!""
As the three of them started crying together, the rest of the theater watched on in interest as they realized they actually didn't know where their friend came from.
This would be a golden opportunity to find out.
But for now, they let the little family have their reunion.
After a few more minutes of crying, the three Natsukis composed themselves, and Subaru gave them a brief explanation of where he was for the past two months.
After that, they addressed the rest of the room. "It's a pleasure to meet you," the woman spoke, bowing slightly. "My name is Naoko Natsuki. I'm Subaru's mother."
"And I'm Kenichi Natsuki," the man pointed to himself. "Subaru's father."
For a few seconds, the theater was quiet, before a certain blond demi-human pointed his finger to the sky, posing, and said, "My amazin' self's Garfiel Tinsel, Cap'n's best friend!"
"Hey! No fair!" cried Otto. "I'm Natsuki-san's best friend!"
"I believe you're both mistaken," Reinhard interjected. "I'm clearly Subaru's best friend."
As the three guys bickered, Naoko couldn't help but smile internally. Her baby boy finally had real friends, and only two months after disappearing.
Speaking of which, she should really address where exactly was it her son had run off to.
"Nice to meet you," Rem bowed. "My name is Rem, I am the one Subaru loves."
"No, you're not!" interjected Emilia. "Subaru said he loves me! He even kissed me!"
Kenichi couldn't help but hold in a laugh. Somehow, Subaru managed to snag two beautiful birds with one stone. He was gonna tease his son like there was no tomorrow.
"Excuse me," spoke a blonde loli. "Betty is Subaru's contracted Spirt, so in essence, I'm his adopted big sister, which makes both of you my new parents, in fact."
"ALL RIGHT, THAT'S IT!" yelled Subaru. "Look, we're going to do this introduction in an orderly fashion. No interrupting one another, no bias, just the facts, got it?"
After ten minutes worth of introductions, Kenichi and Naoko seemed to get the gist.
From what they could understand, there were apparently five different Camps where the ladies were gunning it for some sort of throne, and their son was a knight in one of them.
And from what everyone said, it seemed that Subaru was fairly liked, even popular among all five of those Camps. How did he manage to do that?
"So, Kenichi-san," the girl called Emilia asked. "Why were you and your wife crying?"
Oh, it was time to address that. Naoko put on a serious face, and addressed the rest of the theater. "Well, about two months ago, our son had –"
Uh, hate to interrupt you, but I can't have any spoilers, ma'am.
Everyone reared their heads towards the screen, which now had a voice, along with text reading out what it had just said.
"And who exactly are you?" asked Ram.
Oh, yeah. I'm the Warden. I'm the one who brought all of you here, deactivated your powers, and restored your memories. So… hi?
Everyone looked to one another, before they started to murmur greetings and hellos, while also waving their hands towards the screen. Not that it could wave back.
"Why did you bring us here, Warden?" queried Reinhard.
I've seen the path you're taking, so I decided to interfere. Basically, I'm gonna give you some information, as a sort of a heads-up.
"Wha' sort of information?" asked Anastasia, greedy as ever.
I'm going to show you some Tales from the Multiverse.
Everyone, with the exception of the former Japanese locals, had no idea what that meant.
"Tales from the multiverse?" asked a very confused Petra.
Tivey agreed with the maid's confusion. "What th' heck does that mean?"
Basically, to put it in the simplest terms, the multiverse is a bunch of different what-if scenarios all existing at the same time.
This did not bring any clarity towards the cast.
"What-if scenarios?" repeated Emilia.
Here, let me give you an example: What would happen if Subaru never arrived into all of your lives?
"A lot of bad things," Otto answered. If he wasn't there, the Great Rabbit would have eaten everybody at the Sanctuary, and the assassins would have killed everyone at the mansion.
"We would never have known about the White Whale, or Sloth's attack," Crusch muttered.
"He wouldn't have saved us from the Mabeasts!" answered Petra, while Meili looked away in a mix of cringey embarrassment and guilt.
"He would have never saved me and Big Sis from the bitch in black, since he was the one who knew about her all along!" explained Felt remembering the day they met.
Subaru scratched the back of his head, as he felt embarrassed that all of these people were complimenting him for his achievements. Meanwhile, his parents were impressed that their son managed to do so many amazing things in such a short time.
Him never doing any of those accomplishments would be known as an alternate reality, or an alternate universe.
"Sooooo, a multiverse is basically an iiiiinfifnite number of worlds that start out the saaaaame, but different events result in diiiiifferent histories," summarized Roswaal.
Precisely. There's an infinite number of these realities, all of them with different histories, and different Subarus.
"So, what are we going to do, I suppose?"
You are going to watch a select number of these alternate realities, of your choice.
"So we get to choose?" drooled Anastasia, loving this opportunity.
"Uh, question?" Subaru asked, raising his hand. "Why are my parents here?"
Kid, you're gonna need a lot of therapy once this is over.
Everyone, especially the Emilia Camp and the Natsukis were now very concerned why Subaru, in specific, would have the most problems with this.
Anyway, where were we? Oh yeah, Al. Do you see a remote in your seat?
"Hold on, let me check," answered the one-armed knight, fishing around his seat for one. "Ah, here it is! What the heck, there are no numbers on this?!"
Don't need them. The only buttons you need are for choosing which reality you want to watch, pausing, rewinding, fast-forwarding, volume adjustment, just the basics.
"Ah, gotcha. Still feels stingy, though."
All right, grab some food and drinks, and get ready, because I'm gonna present you with your first two options.
Everyone tensed up as they heard they were about to begin. What would they watch?
What if Emilia was summoned to Japan?
OR
What if Subaru could speak freely about his Authority?
Everyone was mostly confused about these options, save for a few people. Most of the cast were wondering what the heck was Japan, while Kenichi and Naoko, despite knowing that their son was now in another world, had no idea how it even worked, so they didn't know what the story would even be about. But then again, stress and sleep deprivation will do that to a person.
Meanwhile, Subaru was internally panicking. Even if the penalty for Return by Death was removed, he still didn't want to see all of his friends' reactions to finding out that he was a monster. He needed them to vote for the first option.
"Hey, what the heck does it mean by 'Conditions', anyway?" asked Mimi.
The rest of the cast inspected the screen, while Subaru was thankful for the distraction. As they saw the titles, they read that under the two options, there was the word "Conditions".
"Hold on, let me hover over one of these options," answered Al.
Conditions: None.
Conditions: The Tumultuous Week, Loop Four.
"Oi, Warden!" called Garfeil. "What th' heck does that mean? Izzit a riddle?"
Conditions are the listed changes that would be needed in each reality to have it become your reality. You know, with the exception of the obvious change in the what-if scenario.
Everyone seemed to roughly understand what that meant, but they still didn't know what it meant by "The Tumultuous Week, Loop Four".
Subaru, while he had an advantage over everyone else, was still trying to figure out the conditions themselves. "Loop Four" obviously meant when he died in the mansion, but why then? Why would the penalty not be in place when…
Then it clicked.
"The Tumultuous Week" meant his week in the mansion. The fourth loop wasn't when he died in his sleep, it was when he jumped off the cliff to save Rem.
Earlier that week, he tried to tell Emilia about Return by Death, but was silenced by the Witch of Envy. If him being able to speak freely about his power was the catalyst, then that meant that everything that followed would be the alternate reality, the what-if scenario.
He needed to make sure that option wasn't picked.
But how? It was obvious this was going to be a democratic vote. He needed to sway the others.
"Does anyone know whyat an 'Authority' is?" wondered Felix.
NO, NO, NO! SHUT UP, FELIX! Subaru screamed in his mind.
"I doooo!" answered Roswaal, his smile growing wider.
The black-haired knight started daggers into the clown, but Roswaal ignored it as he gave his explanation. "Authorities are the antithesis ooooof Divine Protections, as well as being strooooonger, rarer, and able to be passed down from user to user. Not even the strongest Divine Protection can ever daaaaare to overpower an Authority, not even the weakest one –"
"Okay, thank you for the history lesson, Ros-chi!" Subaru announced, trying to shut up the clown before he spills any other secrets. "Hey, who wants to know about Japan?!"
"Not so fast, fool," Priscilla scowled. "Your attempt to have the clown be silenced may have been a valiant effort, but mineself still wishes to hear the rest. Speak, other fool."
"Of coooourse," Roswaal continued. "Each Authority represents a Sin, making them nine in total. The old bearers were knooown as the Witches of Sin, the most famous one being the Witch of Envy, and the modern Sin Archbishops are the inheritors of thooooose Authorities."
Shit.
Everyone processed the information they heard and started to put two and two together. Slowly, everyone started to look towards Subaru, who could feel over twenty pairs of eyes drilling right into his soul. He needed to salvage this quickly.
"Subaru…" Emilia asked. "Do you possess one of these… Authorities?"
He was screwed. If he said no, Crusch would most likely call out his lie. If he said yes, then everyone would want to ask for details, most likely forcing him to reveal Return by Death.
He needed a way around this, and fast.
Wait, he realized. I've got it.
Invisible Providence. It was his other Authority. Everyone right now was under the assumption that he only had one, so if he responded correctly, everyone would assume that it was his only one. Worst-case scenario, he gets called out as a Witch Cultist, something he could easily disprove, best-case scenario, everyone becomes disinterested and he would be able to convince them that the other story was the better alternative.
"Yes," he answered carefully. "I possess… an Authority."
"Which one?" Julius asked.
"The Authority of Sloth."
Julius seemed to nod, confirming his suspicions. It made sense, kind of. He and Subaru managed to kill the Sin Archbishop of Sloth, and since Julius had a Divine Protection, the only place the Authority would be able to go would be Subaru.
"Wait, does that mean you're the new Sin Archbishop of Sloth?" asked Ricardo.
"I will never be a part of those bastards, let alone a Sin Archbishop," Subaru spat.
"That is true. Betty's Subaru lacks a Gospel, in fact," confirmed the loli.
Thank you, Beako, Subaru cheered in his mind. When this ordeal ended, he would make sure to give her as many head pats as she wanted.
"What is the name of your Authority?" questioned Crusch.
At that Subaru paused. He needed to think. If he said he couldn't tell them, that would fall in line with what the screen explained, but it also ran the risk of them getting curious and voting for the story themselves. If he did explain his power, however, they would ask him why he was able to talk about it now, he could write it off as the Warden giving them freedom of speech.
"Oh, uh, my power is Invisible Providence."
"Ya gotta be more specific, hun," Anastasia smiled.
It was time. He hoped the gamble he was about to make would pay off.
"It allows me to summon an invisible hand from my chest and move it. If I focus hard enough, then I can also make it phase through solid matter," the nasty-eyed knight explained.
Subaru felt relieved as he saw everyone's eyes soften, but it didn't last long. "Wait a second," Ram spoke. "It read that the what-if scenario was about you being able to speak freely about your Authority, implying that you can't actually do it. How are you explaining it now?"
"Oh, the Warden probably turned off the penalty. I mean, if he can summon us all here, cancel all our abilities and magic, return Crusch and Rem's memories, then it wouldn't be that far out of the question that he could negate my Authority's penalty, right?"
Everyone seems to nod in agreement with Subaru's assessment, since it made sense. Heck, even his parents, who only understood the bare minimum when it came to this sort of crap, seemed to be backing him, so he figured that he must have been in the clear.
"Hold up, the 'screen' thingy didn't say anything about deactivating the penalties for Invisible Providence," interjected Felt, noticing an inconsistency in Subaru's story. "It said that the penalty for something called 'Return by Death' was deactivated."
Oh, fuck.
Subaru looked towards Felt in horror as she had literally just destroyed Subaru's alibi, most likely all by mistake. He wanted to scream at her, but he knew that it wasn't her fault.
"Wait, what does that mean?" asked Otto, seeing everyone else tense up.
"It means…" Wilhelm signed in disappointment, "That Subaru-dono was trying to deceive us."
"But how can that be?" asked Reinhard. "My Divine Protection of Wind Indication showed me that Subaru didn't lie once during this whole questioning!"
"Thaaaaat's because he didn't lie," explained the Margrave. "He simply withheeeeeld some parts of the truuuuuth."
"Is that true?" asked Rem, looking towards her hero. "Subaru-kun?"
Subaru's face morphed into one of pain and regret, and the only thing that came out of his mouth was a small whisper of "I'm sorry."
Everyone in the crowd looked towards Subaru, feeling a bit betrayed, but also wondering what other secrets he was keeping secret. "Subaru…" the half-elf asked again, this time being more specific. "Is Invisible Providence your only Authority?"
"No."
"What is your other Authority?"
"I can't tell you."
"Crusch-sama?" asked the knight.
"He's speaking the truth, Felix."
With that confirmation, the gears in everyone's heads were now turning. What was "Return by Death"? There was only one way for them to find out.
"So, shall we put this to a vote?" asked the helmeted knight.
"NO!" screamed Subaru. "Please, you don't want to know!"
"Sorry, Natsuki-kun, that makes me only more interested!" jeered Anastasia. The rest of the cast seemed to be ready to stop the voting process, so Subaru decided to yell one last thing.
"PLEASE, WHAT YOU'LL SEE… IT'LL HORRIFY YOU BEYOND COMPARISON!"
Now, that had made everyone stop for a moment.
Naoko was now extremely worried. She had never seen her little boy more afraid of something. The same sentiment went through the minds of all the people Subaru called friends. What could this Authority be that would make Subaru so scared?
"Perhaps it's best if we respect our friend's privacy…" Julius tried to say.
"No," Priscilla stated, coldly, her eyes staring daggers into the rest of the group. "We are learning what this dog is so afraid of, and we are doing it right now."
"Emilia-tan, please…" Subaru begged, tears threatening to escape his eyes.
His mistress looked at her knight with pity in her heart. "I'm sorry, Subaru, but it pains me to see you like this. So, if this is what it takes to know your pain… so be it."
"Alright!" clapped the merchant princes. "If everyone has grabbed their snacks and is now seated, let's take a vote! Who wants the first option?"
One person raised their hand.
"Second option?"
Twenty-four people raised their hands.
"Motion passed! The second option wins! Play it, tin-man!"
"Yeah, yeah," grumbled Al, as he grabbed the remote and pressed select and play.
What if Subaru could speak freely about his Authority?
Conditions: The Tumultuous Week, Loop Four.
