Chapter 4: The Guardians of Beauty and Intelligence and the Cardcaptor and an odd store
I return to my apartment once I finish my training and I take the time to look over my stats.

Reward for reaching 500 CHA you gain the perk [Good Impression]
[Good Impression]
Now you no longer need to worry about fucking up your first meeting, everyone will think of you favorably but only when they meet you and it doesn't work on people you already meet.
Not that strong of a perk to reach 500 CHA, but again my charisma was out there to begin with so I guess it makes sense that I need higher milestones than normal due to my multiplier. Hey Meta, could I lose this perk if I change into a race that causes my charisma like a Swamp Thing monster?
No. While your stats will fall you won't lose the perk but at the same time perks gained from stat rewards are weaker than normal until you reach the five-digit mark and if you reach the stat milestone and you have already gotten the reward, you'll not gain another perk.
I guess that makes sense and it sucks that I need to have at least ten thousand of a stat before getting a really good perk but I can gain those easily once I gain races with high multipliers. Speaking of races I need to start looking into where my monster targets, I have been here for a week and I never started my search. But that time was used to make sure Usagi falls for me more so it wasn't a waste.
I decided to check my answering machine. It still feels weird being in the 90s when I'm used to being in the 2020s and seeing three messages. Might as well hear them.
*BEEEPPP* "Shin? It's me Usagi, I guess you're out for the time being but I'm calling to let you know Luna wants us to meet at your place. Somehow she used some moon magic to make my parents no question the fact that I'm going to a guy's house alone, but she said it was important. I guess I will see you then, bye."
Well, that's interesting. I know Luna trusts me as far as she can throw and she's a cat so her telling Usagi to come here could mean some things. One, she wants to keep an eye on me as closely as she can. Two, it's possible Luna could see some value in me working with them so she wanted to make my place into our meeting spot, but I doubt that. And Third and finally, this was something important, important enough that she needs as much help as she can get.
Now, time to hear the second message.
*BEEEPPP* "Excuse me Tenma Shinku, It's Professor Kinomoto from Towa University. My daughter was asking for a tutor and I was wondering if you have openings. If you're interested you can come to my office on campus or you can call me to inform me that you aren't interested. I hope I can hear your answer soon."
Now that was something interesting. I now have an inning into Cardcaptor Sakura, but I'm worried about Kero as he's a magical beast so he'll know that I'm a vampire a mile away. But this can be my best chance to meet Sakura and hopefully study the Clow Cards, as my understanding of magic was limited.
Now I'm excited about the last message.
*BEEEPPP* Hello we have been trying to contact you about your vehicle's extended warranty- The message was deleted
… Even in the 90s there were scam calls.
I need to plan for when I meet Sakura but for now, I need to shower. I also realize something that comes from high charisma, my dick has also increased in size. It was a weird feeling when I literally felt my dick grow, I was once above average but now I'm porn star league.
After I got done with my shower I was getting until I heard a knock and I got an idea.
{Usagi's P.O.V.}
I reach Shin's apartment and I can feel my heart pounding. This was the first time I had ever come into a guy's place and it was just me and Shin. And Luna. I still don't understand why we can't meet at my house, we did it several times when Shin tutored me during the week. I still remember how Shingo teased me about how I only took my grades seriously when a pretty boy was my tutor. The worst was that both Mama and Papa agreed with him. I took a deep breath to calm my nerves and knock on the door.
"I'm coming in a moment." I hear Shin say through the door.
The door opens and HOT! I can't help but think that when Shin opened the door with him wearing only a pair of jeans. His muscles and damp hair only added to his normal looks.
"Usagi, come in. Also sorry for being underdressed, I just got out of the shower a moment ago." Shin says as he bends over to grab a shirt from his floor, but my eyes are glued to his butt. I can feel my face get hotter the longer I stare and I would keep staring if Luna didn't start talking.
"Shinku, thank you for allowing us to come in on such short notice." Luna said.
"Nah, it's no problem. But I know this must be Sailor Moon related, otherwise we would just meet at Usagi's." Shin says while putting on a royal purple tee shirt.
"Yes, you're right about this relating to the Sailor Scout but this about a different member. I plan for us to meet her tonight." Luna explains.
"Wait, I thought you had no idea who the other Scouts were. Luna, why haven't you told us sooner?" I asked.
"Because I have not learned her true identity for too long myself. She was found by my partner Artemis, but I heard nothing from him as of late and I got worried. Fortunately, he left me the name of Sailor Venus or as you no doubt know her as Sailor V, Aino Minako." Luna said.
"EEEHHH! We're going to meet Sailor V tonight!" I can't help but yell in excitement. Sailor V has been my hero since I became Sailor Moon.
"Damn. That's big." Shin said.
"Yes, now you both understand why I wanted us to meet here. We're going as soon as you're ready, Shin." Luna said and Shin nod grabbed a few things.
We all leave the apartment and start following Luna until we reach another apartment building. After looking on the housing list we found Minako lives on the fourth floor so we started making our way.
"Seems like this place. The nameplate also says Aino so it has to be this." I said.
Shin knocks on the door while I hold Luna. Soon the door opens and a pretty girl with long blonde hair with a large red ribbon tying it into a loose ponytail. Her eyes are blue but seem a bit bloodshot.
"Yes, how can I help you…" Minako said before trailing off as she saw Luna or rather the crescent mark on Luna's forehead. "That mark was just like… are you also a Sailor Scout?" she asked, looking at me.
"Yes, I'm Tsukino Usagi and I'm Sailor Moon and this here is Luna." I said introducing both myself and Luna. "This is Shin, he also has been helping me since I became Sailor Moon as Crimson Hunter."
"Wait, Crimson Hunter?" Minako asked.
"Yes, that would be due as I am a vampire after all." Shin said.
Minako's eyes widen at that and pull out a … pen? She looked like she was about to yell something until she stopped herself.
"Sorry. I have been jumpy for a while now and hearing him being inhuman causes me to knee jerk." Minako said while pocketing the pen.
"Wait, why did you pull a pen out?" I can't help myself but ask.
"This pen allows me to transform into Sailor Venus." Minako explains.
"While it's good that everyone was getting to know each other better, I need to ask Minako a question. Minako, where's Artemis?" Luna asks. Minako's face showed shock, heartache, and acceptance.
"I'm sorry Luna but… Artemis was killed a week ago." Minako said.
… Wha?
"ARTEMIS'S DIED?! WHEN?! HOW?!" I ask, we come here in hopes for more allies but now we have learned one of the only two people that knows anything about the Sailor Scouts and the enemy has died.
"Last week, when we were doing our search for the other Scouts and the Princess a tan man came out of nowhere and started to attack us. My attacks were useless against him because he has some sort of barrier around him. Artemis must have realized this since he jumped on the man's face and distracted him and plans for me to run away with him soon following me, except the man attacked Artemis and he…" Minako trails off from her story, no doubt remembering things she rather forgets.
"I'm so sorry Luna. I was too weak to protect him and failed to even defeat the man. How can I help save the world if I can't even save my friend and partner?" Minako said, with tears starting to form.
"... It's fine. Both I and Artemis were prepared if this were to happen. We knew that we could die when we decided to search for you all." Luna said. "I'm … going to step out for a moment."
Luna dash down the stairs and Minako softly sobs. This was supposed to be a moment of joy. We were supposed to cheer at us gaining another ally but now the gravity of this life has to turn its head again.
"Shin, I'm going to check on Luna," I said. I started making my way after Luna.
"Wait, Usagi. Maybe you should give her some time alone. I know you just want to help, but at times like these only Luna can help herself." Shin said.
"Then what should we do then? I thought everything was starting to look up, we gained a new ally being Sailor V, someone who has the fighting experience, and Artemis, who knows about things about the Sailor Scouts. But now? We learn that the enemy has someone with a magic shield that protects him and we lose a member. I was terrified by Youma in the store last week and that was probably a low-level member. I don't know when they could attack again and it's causing me nightmares." I said.
Shin's eyes widen when he hears this but calms down. "I understand Usagi, I truly do. But maybe we should just use this time to get to know Minako, we're going to be working with each other for a while." he said.
Maybe we should, Luna could be anywhere now, and worrying about what had happened won't help anyone. I also need to think of Minako, she must have dealt with far worse than what I had.
"Sure, how about dinner? It's almost time and we all can get to know one another over good food. How about that Minako, was there something you wanted to eat?" I ask.
Minako wipes her eyes and gives a small smile, she looks far better with it. "Yeah, dinner sounds great. I know some good places nearby." Minako said.
As we head out this shows me something, I am lucky. I have both Shin and Luna helping me and even Tuxedo Kamen, Minako only had Artemis and he was taken from her. I wouldn't even know what I would do without them…
{Shin's P.O.V.}
This was not good for me. I was hoping to use what little plot I know to my advantage, but within an hour and a half, everything I knew and noted was now down the toilet. While I never finished the show I did read some of the wikis and I know that Minako was always the last Inner Scout to join the main group. Be it the original anime, Crystal, or even the fucking Live-Action tv show. They all followed this rule and now? That rule was gone.
Also, Artemis has died but he never played a big role outside of being Minako's partner and helping Luna find the Dark Kingdom. But even so, Artemis was a big named character as I know he was with the Scouts until the end based on some clips I have seen of the later seasons. But now I have to worry about the other possibilities that can come. Not now though, I'm going on a dinner date, sort of, with two pretty girls.
We followed Minako's lead to the restaurant with Usagi walking next to her making small talk about school, clothes, and other such things that shows they're normal teenage girls when not fighting monsters. While we're walking and me checking out their asses at times, I notice a strange building.
"Gamer Lounge a place for true gamers?" I read. "Hey, Minako. What's this place, some new arcade?" I ask her as she lives near here.
"What are you talking about Shin? There's nothing there, just some old building with nobody renting it. It has been like that for years." Minako said.
But that can't be right. Lights are flashing on the sign and I can hear people within. Maybe I should check this out once we eat.
"Sorry about that. My ears are stronger because of you know and I guess I overheard some people talking so I just reasoned that the noise was coming from this building." I explained and thankfully she believed it.
Once we reached the restaurant, a western themed one at that, we went in and were seated. After placing our orders we decided to spend the time by asking each other some questions. Seems that this Minako was something of an indie idol here rather than being a normal girl that was once part of her school's volleyball team. I guess this world added some of Minako's backstory from the Live-Action show to this one. I'm not complaining too much, she didn't have anything that made her special when compared to Usagi. Ami has smarts, Rei has her psychic powers, and Makoto has her strength but Minako had nothing outside she was Sailor V. Plus banging an idol will also be nice.
The food here was great and the service was also nice. It was also great to eat something I was used to from my past life even if it wasn't one hundred percent the same. Just as I was enjoying the taste of my steak a man walked up to us and he's not a server either.
He was wearing a set of clothes: a white-collar shirt with black dress pants, black dress shoes, and an expensive watch on his left wrist. But the detail that stands out the most was his face and hair. Glasses and black hair with a blue stripe.
Akihiko, the leader of the Aka family. I doubt he was here for me as I made sure no one got out of the Midori HQ alive and even burned the place for good measure. I look at Usagi and Minako, maybe he was after them. No doubt with how the two are virgins and depending on how big in the idol world Minako was can lead to a big payday for him, plus I remember how they're starting to get clients that wanted men too so I might also be a target for him.
"Hello, I'm sorry to interrupt your meals but I work as a model/talent agency and was wondering if I can have a moment of your time. I'll also pay for your meal." he said.
Before I could say anything Minako said it was alright, no doubt planning to have to pay for the meal and tell him she's already in another agency. He did the whole thing by passing around his business card before sitting down. He put his name as Minato on the card with a no doubt fake phone number. My only bet on what's true was the address or more likely the street they would grab you at.
'Minato' ordered a drink since he was now eating with us. I can tell he was looking at both Usagi and Minako's breasts for a split second, fast enough that the two never realized it. While I wasn't sure if he was checking for himself or as products, I do know he was looking at what was mine. Seems he wants me to attack his base next, I was planning on Ao but I was willing to change my plans for him.
When the waiter comes to our table with a tray two drinks, Akihiko's drink and Minako's refill. The waiter gives the glasses to Akihiko to hand Minako hers but before doing that he tries dropping something into it. The keyword being tried. Faster than anyone can see I grabbed the object and pulled back.
I look into my hand to see a small pill. Ok, this fucker was now getting skinned for thinking he can touch one of my girls. Luckily for both me and him, he chose to leave after paying for our meal, probably once he noticed his drug was not working and we soon left too. Usagi told me she was going to start heading home with Minako going with her. I decided to stay back in order to check out that weird building.
I went over to the Gamer Lounge again and the lights were still on, I heard voices and music, and hell I can smell food and some alcohol in there. Steeling myself for whatever could be behind this door, I grabbed the pull.
… I learned two things: one whoever made the building did one hell of a job as I can't make this door budge and two this was a push door. I feel like an idiot.
I push the door open and see a stairway leading down. I walk down preparing myself to fight. Maybe I found a dungeon?
Unfortunately, this isn't a dungeon. A popup with a dungeon rating and mission would have shown before we could have entered.
Well, that theory was out the window now. If this place wasn't a dungeon then what else could it be? Minako and Usagi should have seen it and I doubt this was from a Clow Card.
I reach the ground to see people, some are eating and drinking while others are talking. Hell, I see a group playing a card game and another table playing fucking D&D. But the real shock was what some of them were wearing.
One guy that was drinking what seems like a pint of beer was wearing Power Armor right out of Fallout and a woman was wearing some mage robes. There are even people that weren't human based on the floating tentacle monster!
Before I could even adjust to the insane scene in front of me, my attention was pulled from a yell.
"Monster!" a brown hair man wearing some armor that looks like it was made from a type of scales said. I know he was talking about me as Squidward didn't move. The guy walks up to me and throws an arm around me as if we're old school friends that finally meet again after years. "Man, we were starting to wonder if you would ever find this place. But that's in the past, now we have a party to welcome the newest member of the party." the man said.
"Wait wait wait. Who are you? What was with this place? And why isn't anyone reacting to the literal tentacle monster at the bar?!" I ask/demand. Now everyone's eyes were on me and I felt something. An ungodly level of power not just from the man with his arm around my neck but every single person in this room. I realized I was a very small fish in this room.
…
The silence was killing me and I wonder what are my chances of getting out of here alive. But I even move the room breaks out in … laughter?
"Hee… no wonder everyone was laughing when they did that to me. It was funny." the man said, removing his arm. "To answer your questions: First and Second, this place's a building only Gamers can enter or more specifically evil Gamers in this case. Which I'm one of them, we use our system names as many of us share the same name to make it easier. For example, you're Monster and I'm Slaver because our System's name was that too. Third, Nightmare there was like that due to his System but he's a nice guy." the man, no Slaver explains.
"Why do I doubt that seeing only evil people can be here…" I said in a deadpan tone, which made Slaver laugh a bit.
"Fair, come on and sit with us. It's time to meet your seniors." Slaver said, leading to a table with three women and two men sitting.
One man was wearing something that looks like a carbon copy of Iron Man's mark 85 suit but in black and gold rather than the normal red and gold. The mask/helmet was down to show a blonde-haired man with green eyes.
The second man had black hair that reached his shoulders and was wearing some kind of armor that looked like it was from medieval japan.
The woman had white hair and was wearing a high-class business suit.
The last two women, the one sitting next to Slaver after he sits down, were people I know very well. They were High Elf Archer and Priestess from Goblin Slayer but wearing next to nothing, only a small bra that barely covers their nipples and a thong that disappears into their asses.
"Judging by your reaction I guess you know who these two are so I just skip them. These are Tech Master, Warlord, and Criminal." Slaver said, pointing at the three. As he was saying that Elf Archer removes Slaver's dick from his pants and starts giving him a blowjob while the Priestess was feeding him grapes.
Judging by how no one was stopping him I guess this was normal behavior for the place. "Ok, so what's this place about other than to meet other Gamers?" I ask, trying to ignore the noises Elf Archer was making.
"Simple, here we also provide services. Like me, I sell some of the people I trained to other gamers. I range from sex slaves, bodyguards, to even worker slaves." Slaver said.
"We also sell items for our journeys to others that might want them." Tech Master said, holding up Captain America's shield.
"Even if you can't offer an item, you can with skills. Skills like Swordsmanship and crafting just for example." Warlord explains.
"The Lounge is a place where a Gamer can leave their stress and grab a drink and not worry about some superhero trying to stop us." Criminal said while drinking what seemed like bourbon.
"Ok, so we trade and sell to each other I get that." I said. What could I sell? Maybe some monster blood and parts?
"Oh, and before I forget. A gift from the Lounge." Slaver said while handing me an orb.
Skill Orb - Skill [Summon familiar (rat)]
Summon a rat equal to your base INT score. The summoner can see and hear through the rats.
"Warlock thinks this would be a good skill for you," Slave said.
"Yeah, thanks for the skill," I said, crushing the orb in my grip. I know they weren't doing this out of the kindness of their hearts but rather to advertise what they can offer me.
"I do have one question. Why sell your items and skills when the Shop already does that?" I ask.
"Simple, it's fun. After a while of doing what we normally did and telling stories about things that started getting dull, we made a trading ring. Even then the Shop has far more things we're willing to offer." Slaver explains. "Most of us live thousands of years, bored Gamers are very bad and dangerous."
I guess that makes some sense.
"Now that all those questions are done, IT'S TIME TO PARTY!" Slaver yell with everyone else cheering. More drinks and food came out, I was even given a glass of amber liquor.
I shrug and take a drink. The burn was nice and the taste was also great. I never was one for parties but if it was for me, then I am willing to make an exception.
{Next day}
"Uggghhh." I groan out. My head was killing me. Wait… how the fuck did I get back to my apartment? Did I get drunk? I thought the [Gamer's Body] makes that impossible.
Normally yes it would but in the Lounge, both [Gamer's Body] and [Gamer's Mind] are off to 'help improve the enjoyment of the stay'.
I guess someone or the Lounge itself used magic to teleport me back to my apartment. And judging by my now-empty EP pool, I must have bought something. I pull up my Menu to find out what I get.
[I don't want any trouble]
Just like Jackie Chan you use your environment to help your fights. Though sometimes your fights may turn to something out of a comedy. You also have the drunken fist fighting style.
At least I didn't buy some useless skill like Aqua would have. Still, I'm not sure how to feel about this. Jackie Chan's fights are cool and all but the idea of me fighting the same seems kind of silly for a guy that plans to rule the world one day, but maybe it could be some fun. I need some fun in my life just like the others at the Lounge are.
*RRRRIIIINNNNGGGG*
And just when I was about to go to my base for more training.
"Hello, Tenma Shinku speaking. How may I help you?" I answer the call.
"Shin, It's Usagi. We need to meet at the Arcade, we have a lead to a Youma. I, Luna, and Minako are already here. Please hurry, my friend might be in danger." Usagi said before hanging up.
I guess I better move it. I rush to the arcade as quickly as I can for the meetup, and I reach there in no time flat. Got to love this supernatural body of mine. For some odd reason, the arcade was empty outside of Usagi, Luna, and Minato. Not even the staff are here.
"I'm here guys. Also, where's everyone at? This place should be crawling with students at this time." I said.
"That's because of me. I use what little magic I can to make them leave this place alone subconsciously. We can't have people in here when I'm doing this." Luna said while jumping off Usagi's shoulder and making her way to the Sailor V game machine, which was off. She jumped on the machine and started pushing buttons and moving the joystick in a certain pattern. The game machine screen started to glow and move backward to reveal a hidden stairway down with each step looking like some kind of crystal.
"Woah… I never knew this was here…" Usagi said in wonderment. I can't blame her either as I too was surprised at this, I have never seen this in the anime.
"Come on, I need to check that disk Usagi found." Luna said before heading down with Minako following her.
"Usagi told me a friend of hers might be in trouble. Can someone tell the story?" I ask while going down the stairs.
"Ah! Sorry, Shin, my friend Ami has been acting strange today and Luna found a mind control program on the disk, one that Ami's cram school gives to its students." Usagi said. "I wanted to save Ami as soon as possible but Luna explains that the Youma might have people under mind control, so she wants to try making a countermeasure to prevent the Youma from using them as hostages."
"What kind of person is Ami?" I ask Usagi. How long was this stairway? Also, are those stars in the background?
"Ami is a really nice girl. I thought she was going to be a bit of a snob due to her being the top student at my school like my friends said, she had perfect scores in all the midterm tests. But she was really nice, cute, and a bit on the shy side, nothing like how I thought she was. Luna even thinks she might be one of the Sailor Scouts when she meets Ami due to her having magic." Usagi finishes telling me just as we reach a platform surrounded by stars.
The platform had some big machine that looked like a supercomputer with glowing lines leading up to it on the ground with six pillars around the base.
"How can something like this be under the arcade?" Usagi asks, looking around at the unending sea of stars. "It's so pretty…"
"Artemis told me there was a base somewhere in Tokyo. I would have guessed in an arcade under my game." Minako said while giving a small sad chuckle.
"Usagi hand me the disk so I can decode it for later. Oddly the Youma only took Ami in so we don't have to worry about any hostages." Luna said as Usagi hands her… a floppy disk?
"Wait, you have high levels of tech that looks like nothing humans can make yet and it can take a floppy disk?" I can't help but ask that.
"Also, we have to hurry to save Ami!" Usagi yells.
"First, not the floppy disk isn't going into the computer, it's going to scan the data from it. Second, the Sailor Scouts can teleport with the Sailor Teleport. Normally only Sailor Scouts can use it but since Shin is going to be part of the group, I made this." Luna explains while throwing me a wristwatch. "And these are for you Usagi and you too Minako." throwing them a pen with a pink crystal top and a ring. "The pens will allow you both to transform your clothes into a disguise and the rings act like beacons for Shin's watch to track. I even made it so that he can teleport with the Sailor Teleport, but he has to have physical contact with a Sailor Scout in order for it to work."
"Ok, so the plan was to teleport, beat the Youma, save Ami, and see if she was one of the Sailor Scouts." Minako said.
"Yes, once you're all ready we will teleport." Luna said, confirming the plan.
As I was equipping my Crimson Hunter outfit and Minako was looking at the Crystal Seminar's blueprints and the surrounding area to see where we should land, I can't help but notice Usagi looking a bit down. "Usagi, is something wrong?" I ask.
"Huh? No Shin, I'm fine just worrying about Ami." Usagi told me, but I feel there was more.
"Are you sure? You know you can tell me anything. We're all in this together after all." I told her.
Usagi sighs and has a nervous look but turns to me. "It just… I don't think I should've been a Sailor Scout. Minako did far more good than me and I have no doubt she should be our leader, Ami is way smarter than me, and I have no doubt that the other Scouts will be better than me. All I am was the clumsy crybaby that was failing her classes until you started tutoring. I'm pathetic when compared to them…" Usagi said looking more down and her eyes started to well up.
"Usagi, while it's true that Ami has the brains and Minako has the experience, you play an important role in this group. You're the heart. You're the one who was able to befriend Minako when she was at her lowest point. I and Luna couldn't do that. Also, this whole leader thing isn't as clear-cut as you may think because while you think Minako should be the leader. I think the leader should be you." I told her with her eyes widening when I told her she should be the leader.
"You have a special power to befriend anyone. You help us understand that there's more in our lives than just fighting. You are our support Usagi, that's the reason why I think you're the leader because you remind us of why we fight, for the chance to live our lives to the fullest." I said finishing up my speech.
Usagi looks at me in stunned silence until her famous smile breaks out. "Thank you, Shin, you have no idea how much that means to me. I still don't think I should be the leader but you're right. I do have a role in this, I will be there to help everyone when they're down and keep on doing my best. At the end of the day that's all we can do." Usagi said.
"Ok lovebirds. We're about to head out." Minako said with a smirk and Luna was giving me the stink eye. Minako's comment did make Usagi blush, which was good for me.
"Usagi! Minako! Transform!" Luna yells, jumping off the computer. The two girls nod and Minako pulls out her transformation pen.
"Moon Prism Power!/Venus Power!"
"MAKEUP!" The two girls yell, activating the transformations.
I have seen the Usagi in complete transformation before and have been hanging around two out of the five Inner Scouts. But seeing the famous transformation in front of me was something else. For one, the girls' clothes disappear, showing them off in their nude glory. I'm certain that I shouldn't be able to see that because the cannon transformation should be in nanoseconds, but I think Meta was the reason and I'm not complaining.
Both Usagi and Minako seem to have no pubic, not sure if it was because of their choice, genes, or anime logic has them bald down there. Minako's breasts are slightly bigger than Usagi's, but Usagi has the bigger ass between the two. Also, it seems like Minako's transformation has a ribbon rather than the stars in her original transformation.
The transformation ends with the two standing in their iconic Sailor Suits. Minako's outfit looks very similar to Usagi's but her skirt was orange with a large yellow back ribbon, orange collar on her neck and on her suit, orange ends on her gloves, an orange button in the middle of her blue chest ribbon, and orange mary jane shoes.
"Now to do the Sailor Teleport, everyone needs to hold hands and think of the location that you want to land." Luna said with the computer opening a slot with a cat collar with a small bell. Must be like the watch that allows me to join the teleport.
Luna jumps on Usagi's shoulder as we form the ring. Soon magical energy started building around us as Usagi and Minako focused. "SAILOR TELEPORT!" both of them yell. The teleport feels like you're on a roller coaster with the only thing keeping you from flying was the person holding you. Fortunately, it didn't last long as we appeared in front of the cram school that Ami was in. Minako already started heading for the door while Usagi was trying to rebalance herself from the teleport, it's showtime.
I decided to try my new skill, summoning ten rats to do scout work. Though the summon did shock everyone, Usagi was screaming at the rats.
"Ew ew ew ew ew!" Usagi said with Minako not doing much better with the two jumping around. Luna on the other hand looks like she was about to jump on one.
"It's a new power I gain. I can see and hear through them, making these guys the perfect scouts for us. I even think I might send some in the city to keep watch." I explain in order to calm the girls down.
"That's … a very good ability for us. We can gain an edge on surprise attacks on the enemy in the future." Luna said, wiping the drool around her mouth. "Do you see anything Crimson?"
Focusing on one of my rats to see through it. It was like an on-rail shooter game. Soon enough one of my rats enters the computer room to see the short blue hair and eye girl wearing a school uniform and glasses with a woman wearing a typical teacher-looking outfit. I was able to hear Ami talking about the Silver Crystal.
"Nothing, I just found a blue-haired girl with an older woman in office clothing. The girl also looks like she's in some trance and talking about something called the Silver Crystal." I told the group with both Luna and Minako gasping.
"Silver Crystal? Luna, what's the Silver Crystal and why would the Youma be looking for it?" Usagi asks the cat in question.
"I will explain later Sailor Moon. But now we need to save Ami!" Luna said, reminding us of our mission.
As we were about to enter the building, a new mission pop-up appeared before me.
[Saving the Guardian of Water]
Ami Mizuno, also known as Sailor Mercury, is now in trouble and only you can save her!

Failure: Ami will be killed, and the Dark Kingdom will rule the world and you die… again.
I accept the mission. I also wonder what this Mystery Box was. Maybe a loot box of kinds?
We enter the building with me taking the lead with Usagi following me and Minako and Luna covering the back. I kept using the rats to warn me if something was coming. I doubt that would happen, but one can't be too safe. Soon we reach the Computer Room in time to hear the disguised Youma say to Ami while pushing her head closer to the computer's screen.
"Offer your energy to our great leader human!"
I was about to throw a blood spike until…
"Stop right there! I am the pretty Guardian in a sailor suit who fights for Love and Justice! Sailor Moon! In the name of the Moon, I'll punish you!" Usagi said to the Youma while finishing a pose.
"I am the Pretty guardian of Love and Beauty. I am Sailor Venus! In the name of Love, I will punish you!" Minako said doing her pose too.
…
I forgot about that habit they have… goodbye surprise attack.
"Sailor Moon? Sailor Venus? You must have been the annoyance that my Queen told me about. Very well then!" the woman said before her skin turning black with pointed ears and red glowing eyes. "I'll remove you myself!" the Youma said point a clawed finger with several glowing papers spinning around her.
I might as well step out myself at this point. I really need to tell Usagi we can't be going around saying hero speeches before a fight.
"Oh, and the Crimson Hunter was also here? Good, this way I can remove all the thorns in my Queen's side." the Youma said once it saw me. "Let's see how smart you all are! First question: An apple fell and hit Newton on the head, why did the apple fall?"
…
What? Oh yeah… this fight.
The Youma threw a series of papers, and we all yelled our answers "Gravity!", which caused all the papers to disappear. Glad to see all that tutoring help after all, since in the cannon fight Usagi got that way wrong.
"It seems that you all do have some brains. Next question: Explain gravity in fifty words!" the Youma said while charging another attack.
"Eeeehhhh! I can't answer that!" Usagi complains with Minako also seems to struggle how to answer the question. Me? I have a different answer.
"I'm more of a visual learner." I spoke.
"HA! That question was impossible to ans- OOFFF!" the Youma was cut off by the computer monitor hitting her in the face.
I rush at her with my new skill [I don't want any trouble] and grab anything, mainly breakable, and smack her upside the head.
"STOP THAT! AAH! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THAT ALL COST?! OOOFFF! THOSE AREN'T TOYS! NOT THE FACE!" the Youma yells as I use keyboards, monitors, towers, and even use the mouses as some kind of nunchucks. It tried to grab me by the sleeve, only for me to slip my arm out of the sleeve going into a spin and using blood magic to net me another chair to spin back in to hit the Youma with it.
"That's it! I will not be treated as some kind of a joke!" the Youma yells, summoning even more papers and aiming at USAGI?!
"WWWAAAAHHHH!"
DAMN IT!
I cover Usagi as the papers to stab me. Damn, that hurts. Worst paper cut ever.
"CRIMSON!" I hear all the girls yell, but I'm pissed at the fact a rose was impaled into the floor meaning…
I follow my sense to see Tuxedo Kamen holding MY Usagi in a princess carry, he must have grabbed her when I was protecting her. I did calm down after seeing Usagi running to me instead of being a blushing mess after the masked asshole set her down. Thankfully the guy left before he did something to piss me even more, guess he knows he wasn't needed/wanted. I really need to figure out a plan for Mamoru.
"You see Crimson Hunter? I know your weakness, while you're stronger than me. You also protect the far weaker Sailor Moon, I'll just use her to get to you. How cute~ you must really like, or even love her~" the Youma said with twisted glee.
Usagi seemed shocked at what the Youma said, but I said nothing. This might be in my favor if Usagi thinks I have feelings for her, and me risking my life should have a far bigger impact than Tuxedo Kamen's recuse. Also, Ami seemed to snap out of her trance seeing that she was pushing herself against the wall trying to make herself seem as small as possible.
Luna run-up to Ami as fast as her little cat legs can with a blue pen in her mouth. Luna throws the pen which Ami catches out of reaction more than real thought.
"Ami! Use that pen and yell Mercury Power Makeup!" Luna told Ami who was confused at the talking cat.
"L-Luna?! Why are you here?! How are you talking?! Why is Usagi in some kind of superhero custom and fighting a monster?! Who are those people?! WHAT'S GOING ON?!" Ami yells in shock. No doubt her whole worldview makes no sense right now.
"I'll explain later, but Usagi and her friends need your help!" Luna said. Ami calms down and nods, raising the pen into the air.
"Mercury Power Makeup!" Ami yells at the top of her lungs and the transformation starts.
Like Usagi and Minako, she too was naked during the transformation with her being more balanced. Her breasts were slightly bigger than Usagi's, same with her ass from Minako. The pen top started shooting out a large amount of water which Ami spins around to cover her body. As the water wraps around her body, it turns into a blue ribbon-like Usagi and Minako transformation. The transformation ends with Ami standing in her Sailor Scout outfit, which like the others was the same but done in a light blue with boots just like Usagi's. Now Ami stands as the most popular Sailor Scout, Sailor Mercury
"This… this is me?" Ami said to herself looking at herself.
"Yes Ami, you're the Guardian of the planet Mercury. The planet of Intelligence and Water, Sailor Mercury." Luna told Ami.
"ANOTHER SAILOR SCOUTS?! THAT DOES IT!" the Youma yells in rage, turning its arm into an axe. "IF I'M GOING TO DIE, I'M GOING TO AT LEAST KILL ONE OF - BLOOOGGBBB!" the Youma tried to say until a large stream of water hit it.
"Incredible Sailor Mercury! You're already getting used to your powers!" Usagi yells in joy for her friend.
"That wasn't me…" Ami said, denying that she did the attack, and she was right.
Sailor Mercury was the brains of the group and mainly a support player with her attack the Bubble Spray, which makes a thick layer of mist to blind the enemy for the other Sailors to finish off.
But where does that water come from?! I turn to where the attack came from to see the water moving and forming into a small blue girl with elf ears, long blue hair, fish wings in the hair, and a scaly circlet. And standing behind the mermaid were two young girls, grade schoolers at that. One girl has grey-violet hair with a white hair ribbon and indigo eyes. She was wearing a school outfit of a long sleeve sweater with white skirt and sailor cape that ends in a tie and holding a recording camera aimed at the other girl. The other girl has short brown hair with two ahoges and two long hair strands on the sides with emerald green eyes. She was also wearing the same school outfit the first girl was wearing. She was holding a long rod with a bird looking head at the end with the eyes being red gems with wings around them.
Those are Tomoyo and Sakura, the two main characters of Cardcaptor Sakura.
WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY HERE?!
"Sailor Mercury, quick use your Bubble Spray!" Luna told Ami as the Youma tried getting back up.
"OK! Bubble Spray!" Ami yells as she releases a large number of bubbles that pops, encasing the room in a deep mist. The mist also lowers the temperature to where the water lifted by Sakura's Watery was frosting over.
"WHERE ARE YOU PESTS!? SLAM! COME OUT AND FIGHT ME! SLAM! It's so cold…" I hear the Youma say as it swings in blind fury in hopes to land an attack on one of us. Luckily my rats help make sure I still have an eye on it. But soon the Youma found Sailor Mercury. "I found YOU!" It yells as it brings its axe arm down on Ami's head.
…
Only for it to be the reflection for a computer screen.
As soon the failed attack lands we make our moves. I summon bottles of blood from my inventory and use my blood magic to break the bottles and wrap around the Youma's neck forming a collar and chain with the break glass farther digging into its neck. I grab the chain end and use my strength to force it to stay in place. Even Sakura helped me by using Woody to summon magical trees to wrap around the axe arm. Minako fired a Crescent Beam at the left leg, destroying it in the process. Now all that was …
"Sailor Moon! DO IT NOW!" I yell at Usagi who nods.
"Right! Moon Tiara Action!" Usagi says and throws her tiara at the Youma, which lands turning it into dust.
As Usagi was checking up on Ami, Minako decided to check on the children. Normally I bet we would just leave, but after seeing Sakura using magic no doubt has the Sailor Scouts wondering things.
At least nothing was getting boring around here…
{Bonus Scene}
{The Bet}
SMASH!
"WWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!" Monster screams after smashing the bottle of his latest drink. At least this guy was fun.
"This is starting to get ridiculous. I still don't understand why the Supreme One isn't allowing us to end the rogue." Criminal said.
"Because we're his toys and they're the newest ones in his toy box. It's like how boys slam their action figures into each other while imagining battles of epic proportions." I explained to her, she was always one to simplify things.
"Yes, but while Monster has been playing around trying to make a harem with school girls, the rogue has been building an army and gaining levels." Criminal said, taking another sip of her drink.
"Can't really blame him. Most Gamers, good or bad, make harems, it's just a normal thing around here. Hell, you have one yourself Criminal or are all those girls just Friends with Benefits. If anything buzzkill was the weird one for not going for anybody, be it human or not." I said. That guy really was a buzzkill. He refused to stay and drink, he even looked like he was about to attack Nightmare.
Monster was way more fun than that stick in the mud.
"I like Monster, he seems like he will fit in just fine." I said, downing another shot.
"I wonder if Monster would feel the same if he knew that you offer the rogue a skill of your own?" Criminal said to me.
"Nothing. He knows we're not here to play house. When push comes to shove, we all care about only ourselves. That and our harems." I said, and it's true. Monster knows that basic fact, just not how much.
"Soooo~ Who are you betting on? I'm on the rogue. His system was … weird to say, but he has shown focus and has already started taking down bigger threats." Criminal said.
"Monster for me. He has great potential for power with his system, but if what I hear about his system was true. Then things will get really interesting." I said. The Supreme One said he plans some sort of update.
We clink our glasses to agree to the bet. The big guy can't be the only one having fun in this.
Author's Note
Chapter 4 is now done! And big things are starting! First thing first, the mystery box isn't a loot box for those that are worried. It is the update to the system to remove the numbers. This idea was made by The Dark Wolf Shiro, one of the people that inspired me to write. It seems easier to write when you don't have to worry about numbers, but I plan to give Shin a new race for it. I was thinking of the Blob, but if you have a race that you want to have the spotlight then PM me. I can't promise anything but if I really like it I will add it to one of my monster races.
Also thank you all for reading as I just reached 50+ followers for this fic, which is neat. I hope you all have a really great spooky month and hopefully the next chapter pops up soon.
