Hey Guys! Crescent Rider Here and I am back with an original chapter.
As promised, The next Servant has arrived and it may surprise everyone. If not, know that I've tried to make it look special.
That is all, and enjoy the chapter!
City - A
Nadia was seen in the public library, and her copies were handling certain things like cleaning the floors and corners of the library, alphabetically organizing the books on certain shelves, and one is seen tending the counter alongside Kombu Infinity.
Assassin was present but remained outside the library as security detail when Nadia received a report from the Association of rising monster activities near this area.
Then comes a different person as the original Nadia remains where she always read...
"Hey, Nadia," Nadia puts her book down and she was greeted by her second servant,
This was a young boy with golden hair, and blood-red eyes, wearing a white polo shirt with three stripes on the color and cuffs over a green sleeveless jacket, light brown pants, and a pair of sneakers.
This was Archer and the youngest version of a great King...
"Do we plan on going out soon?" Archer questioned,
"Once I've received information of monsters appearing in this area. Then we'll go," Nadia said,
"Eh... But I wanted to go somewhere nice together," Archer said, and sat down next to her, "Like a restaurant, or probably a shop nearby,"
"Then I'm afraid you should lower your standards since the restaurants and shops in this city are crazy expensive," Nadia explained, "Even with my position in the Hero Community, I doubt I'd be able to pay it all,"
"That's a shame," Archer said, and leans his head against Nadia's left shoulder,
"Why are you doing this?" Nadia questioned while focusing on her reading,
"Just want to," Archer replied, and Nadia sighs while still reading her book,
Moments later, she hears her phone ringing and pulls it out of her pocket,
She flips the phone open, receives a report that several monsters have appeared close by, and closes her book, as she places it on a table, "We're going,"
"Already?" Archer questioned,
"Yep," Nadia replied, and stands up from her chair while Archer follows suit,
Nadia then recalls her copies and assigned Assassin to observe the monster activity while Kombu Infinity was ordered to stay behind and watch over the library.
Archer still followed Nadia, and the latter let him be as he could be of use for the battle ahead.
Area of Activity
It was another day for monsters and they rampaged through the area and civilians flee as they feared getting themselves caught in the battle.
Nadia and Archer soon arrived at the area, and both stared at the monsters.
"They're a rowdy bunch, aren't they," Archer commented,
"They are, and it's kinda cliche if you ask me," Nadia said, and materializes her sword, "I won't ask much, but can you provide some support?"
"I'm always ready, you know," Archer said with a smirk on his face,
Nadia then charges forth, and the monsters had already noticed her arrival. They retaliate with an attack of their own, but some were restrained when chains emerged from the ground and coil themselves all over their limbs, waist, and neck.
With this, Nadia proceeds to slice through these monsters with her sword and not one of them was able to lay a finger on her as their movements were restricted by Archer's chains.
One of the monsters took notice of Archer's presence and attempted to throw a large piece of rubble at him. But Archer opens some portals and breaks the rubble into pieces.
However, he did get some dust onto his jacket.
"Seriously?" Archer complained before directing his attention towards the monster that threw the rubble, "Maybe I should let out a little bit,"
Archer soon opened at least four golden portals behind him and four chains came straight toward the monster. Rather than restrain it, the sharply pointed part of his chains pierced through the monster's head, chest, and waist.
Killing it in an instant while Archer dusts off his shoulder.
In a matter of minutes, The monsters had been handled and not one scratch was laid onto Nadia's body.
"That's the 3rd time today," Nadia said, and dematerializes her sword,
"And it's quite disappointing too," Archer said as his portals disappear, "Which reminds me, what will happen to these things?"
"The Heroes Association tends to clean this up whenever they have people to spare," Nadia revealed, "If not, then the citizens will do it for them. But to be honest, I kinda feel bad for them,"
"Isn't that the point? Heroes fighting bad guys, and going home after?" Archer questioned while his hands are behind his head,
"I'm nothing like that," Nadia stated, then her shadow extended toward the corpses
Before long, the corpses disappeared and the same can be said for the blood as well. As for the damages that were caused by the monsters, Nadia went to each and every crack and hole and used simple Magic to close the holes properly.
As for the large rubble lying around, she breaks them into pieces and disposes of them in the nearest trash can.
Once she finishes, it's almost like it nothing had ever happened.
"There," Nadia declared, "Now the only thing they'll ever do is sweep the area,"
But her small celebration came to an end when Nadia's cellphone rang once more. She pulls it out and finds the 4th report about a monster attack that has occurred in the northern part of City - A.
In addition, the Heroes that were dispatched to the area had been put out of commission due to the monster's strength.
Nadia sighs at this, and puts the phone away, "Let's go, Archer,"
"Another one? Why are these other heroes so weak compared to the big shots you know," Archer remarked,
"I tend to say that as well. But now isn't the time to complain. The faster we finish this, the better it will be for everyone," Nadia elaborated,
"Can you at least provide something nice after we've done this?" Archer questioned, "I don't like doing things for nothing,"
"Fine, I'll find a restaurant that will suit your taste," Nadia admitted,
"And it better be nice," Archer stated before he and Nadia went to intercept the target,
A Few Minutes Later...
The two soon arrive, and the monster they see had disgusted them.
First off, its head was disfigured into some mangle face with sharp teeth sticking out of the corners of its mouth, the right side of its body was bloated while the left arm and legs were skinny.
Nadia could only pity the victim, but she needed to focus on her task and materializes her sword at the ready.
"Archer," Nadia called,
"I know," Archer said, and readies himself,
But before Nadia could proceed with the assault. Something unexpected occurs...
'... He... H-Help...' A ragged voice called out, '...M...M-m... Me...'
'Huh?' Nadia muttered before staring dead in the eyes of the monster,
The ragged voice continued to plead, but when Nadia uses heightened sights on the monster. She notices something within the monster's body.
The first was corrupt mana and the second was a small figure within it's massive body. Almost resembling a human child...
Nadia froze for a brief moment, but snaps out of it and mutters loudly, "I will,"
"Huh?" Archer expressed confusion as he turns to her,
She then communicates with the voices inside her mind.
'What do you want now?' A Strict voice questioned,
"I'm requesting your aid. Come out immediately" Nadia instructed,
'If you say so,' A Strict Voice said,
Before long, Four of Nadia's copies had materialized with their own physical form.
Red-eyed Nadia donned the figure of a man, wore red samurai armor, and an oni mask, and wields a red katana on her left hip.
Green-eyed Nadia donned a slimmer man wearing a black traditional tunic, and a bamboo hat, and her face was covered with a white mask.
Purple-eyed Nadia donned a figure that's in between a male and female, however, she wears more of a gentlemen's outfit, a top hat, and a white mask with a mischievous expression.
And Golden-eyed Nadia donned a figure of a slim woman, wearing a short sleeveless dress, yellow shoulder pads with light bolts at the center, yellow kneepads, a white fox mask with a small lightning bolt on the left cheek, and sai blades at the back.
"What do you want with us now?" Red-eyed Nadia questioned,
"One of you will escort the injured and the civilians out of this area," Nadia ordered,
"Leave that to me!" Golden-Eyed Nadia volunteered and dashed forth to do her job
"The rest of you will keep the other heroes from intervening," Nadia ordered, "Use force if they persist,"
The three copies nod at her command and went into positions while Nadia and Archer face off against this monster.
"Archer," Nadia called out, and Archer turns his eyes to her, "Don't kill her,"
Archer still remained confused, but abides by her order as he readies himself once more, "Alright, but don't forget to treat me with something nice,"
"If you insist," Nadia agreed,
The monster then lets out an ear-piercing shriek before rushing toward the two with the intent to kill.
Somewhere close by...
A group of heroes consisting of a few Class A and Class B Heroes were nearby and spotted the monster in the distance. But they also spot Nadia and her Servant on the scene as well.
They rush in to help her, but they were stopped when Green-Eyed Nadia blocks their path.
"Who the hell are you?" A Class A Hero interrogated,
"Who I am doesn't concern you," Green-Eyed Nadia said, then assumes a martial art stance to them, "What matters is that you stay out of this..."
The Group glanced at each other, but they put their attention on her and readied themselves for a fight.
On another location
Two Class - A Heroes, Okamaitachi, and Bushidrill, were making their way to the location of a recent monster attack. But before they could reach the area, they stopped when Red-Eyed Nadia blocks their path.
"Not one step close," Red-Eyed Nadia stated and her hand was on the blade,
The two samurai glanced at each other before nodding as they drew their swords at hand.
Even though Red-Eyed Nadia was fully aware of the no-killing rule towards humans, she couldn't help but smirk as the anticipation was tempting her.
Last Location
The Top Class - A Heroes, Amai Mask, was making his way to another city when he suddenly heard a monster rampaging nearby.
Thus, he decided to handle it before attending to one of his events again. But just as he was closing in on the location. A certain someone comes along.
"Hello," Purple-Eyed Nadia greeted by the side,
Through instinct alone, Amai Mask sweeps his hand at her. But she easily avoids the attack by fading into thin air and then reappears a few meters away from him.
"Who are you," Amai Mask interrogated,
"Who am I doesn't matter," Purple-Eyed Nadia stated, "What matters is that I won't let you pass,"
Purple-Eyed Nadia then snaps her fingers once, and a barrier was cast around them.
Amai Mask glances at the barrier, then proceeds to glare at the Purple-Eyed Nadia while clenching his fists until veins appeared from the back of his hand.
Purple-Eyed Nadia wasn't intimidated by his glare. Instead, she smirks underneath her mask and pulled out a custom-made gun with a small bayonet blade attached beneath the barrel at the Class A Hero.
In this scenario, combined with the monster and the other heroes. Nadia was going to have a rough day ahead of her...
That is it for this part of the chapter! Up next is the fight, and I promise that I'll do my best to make it good for you all.
Until then, stay safe from the virus and I'll see you all in the next part of the chapter!
