Chapter 22. I'm not a Thief
"Alright we are leaving for Egypt in a fewdays, but we do have an Important announcement to make."
Da Vinci said in the living room of Kischur's home, which was now filled with servants.
"Mrs.Midoriya gave us a call yesterday, and told us that the new building is ready.So servants who are summoned may stay there rather then bunched up within one area."
The servant all showed different expression, but in the end all were interested.
"Now you don't all have to go, but it's best if we don't have too large of a group...it's attracting a bit too much of attention from the Mages and the Churches especially, so we'll need some of you to go to Japan."
Many were hesitant after all it means leaving Izuku, but most were fine after all they believed in their abilities and his as well.
Then thinking about the attentions they were receiving it wouldn't be the best to stay bunched up, only England officials has agreed for their stay while Kischur is working on letting the Mages accept this fact. Mages aren't too bad of an Issue as they had quite the Influential figures by their side, but the church it was new, they currently have almost no connection with them so there maybe issues.
"Also, since the building is ready there's enough room for everyone and a dormitory section if you would prefer that over your very own personalized room. Let see... and there's a set fund for everyone so feel free to buy what you need if your heading towards Japan."
This got Nero's attention,
"Umu, may I inquire how freely can I modified my room?"
"As long as you modified within your own room and the few space outside the door, without interfering others space almost anything is permitted."
Da Vinci answer caused Nero's eyes to sparkle, but now she was in a tough position should she stay or should she go.
Traveling was fun, although she done it before in another world, her lifetime, and in different singularity this is the present world she's at. Nero was now stuck between choices thus she raised her hand once again.
"Da Vinci, if we were to stay on this trip what happens to our room in the tower?"
Da Vinci placed down a map of the whole building and it was massive,
"Gilgamesh went ahead ages ago to leave his claim of where he wanted to stay, Inko, Izuku,Hisashi, and Touya already are assigned rooms, but don't worry we still have plenty."
She looks around to see everyone is paying attention,
"It's first come first serve all rooms are spacious enough for all servants, except for the basement rooms those are for our especially massive servants or servants who need accommodation due their characteristics."
Da Vinci shows the difference of the normal floors vs the specially built ones.
"As for those who want to stay you can pick your rooms later. We'll take a list of what you would like and go buy it for you and store it for when you arrive."
Now Nero was more torn, she could have someone else do it, but do they truly know what a taste of the emperor or even Rome is like, and what if she doesn't get a nice spot?
Izuku saw this and tapped on Nero's arm,
"Nero if you like you can go to Japan and set up your room, beside we'll still have plenty of opportunities to travel in the future, the same goes for everyone."
It took quite awhile for them to decide which group would head to Japan and which would stay with Izuku.
Thus after a long back and forth, straws were made to be pulled.
Cu, Fran, Li, Jing Ke, and Mordred lost their pick of the straw.
Mordred wanted to argue about this decision, but in the end gave up after she saw why she lost the pick.
Nero didn't lose, she just chose to go, after all Izuku promised this isn't the last trip.
As Usual Da Vinci, Shakespeare, and Abigail stays with Izuku, and Scathach wish to stay as well after all she just arrived. Emperor Qin, Jeanne, Penthesilea, Chiron, and Atalanta were the ones that stayed.
Once everything was settled the group parted ways as they send off their fellow companions.
Before the day completely ended Izuku called in Da Vinci, Kischur, Rin, and Luvia.
"Izuku is something wrong?"
Rin asked with Luvia following in with,
"Yes, is something bothering you?"
"No...well yes it was about the portal or shadowy mist that we saw a few days ago...Chiron and everyone who saw it and experienced it first hand said it wasn't magic..as they felt nothing. So is it a quirk?"
Da Vinci puts a finger to her chin,
"Hmm, it would seem so from what they told us it would seemed to be a quirk, did something about this bother you,"
"Yes, it's that since we couldn't find Matou anywhere in Ireland, nor the heroes or the con artists it's possible this is a teleportation or a massive transportation quirk, but the issue with that is it shouldn't be possible...right?"
Da Vinci now nods her head as Kischur did as well, and she spoke once again,
"Indeed, so I guess Kischur and I weren't the only ones who found it odd... quirks get stronger with each generation that's a know fact, and that's how they develop more and became more prominent in the past two hundred years. However no matter how much Kischur and I mapped it out, we couldn't pinpoint how this quirk was born into."
Kischur chimed in,
"With this quirk you must had to intentionally be trying for this kind of quirk, by going through somewhat of a breeding process called quirk marriages, but even then it wouldn't result in what we have witnessed. I scrounged the global data base for quirk on civilian, heroes, and Villains, in the end nothing matched. however there were a few quirk combinations that would've worked to create it. "
Da Vinci went to take out a laptop and pulled up a few pictures of possible quirk users,
"Disturbingly enough if we were to go with a quirk creation or modification theory, then we have an interesting lead."
As Da Vinci scrolled through the list of possible quirk that were needed for combination it showed a disturbing pattern. Deceased, Missing, and Unknown a long list, and something interest Izuku.
"Oboro, a UA student...Da Vinci remember how my father got into the coma."
She looks at Izuku and saw how upset he looked and she softly said,
"Yes"
"I think it's that same man, that Allmight called All For One, he has a quirk to take someone else's quirk, and if he can take...he can possibly give."
This brought the room to silence Kischur knew or rather heard of this man, although to the public he is unknown but for the underworld he is like the boogeyman that haunts the dark.
Mages know of him due to them finding him interesting, but now one interacted with him due to wanting to keep the division of quirk and magecraft.
"So He lives, even though he was struck by Gilgamesh's version of Gae Bolg... that is interesting, Gilgamesh did say he escaped but to know he is still alive is quite..."
Da Vinci thought spirals as she thinks about what AFO could do with Matou at his side. AFO is an influential figure in the underworld of quirks, who not only could take quirks with a touch but also give them.
Now with the combination of a rogue mage who somehow obtained knowledge and usage of Shadow Servants. What could these two do now?
Few days earlier and Somewhere in Japan
"Garaki...who is this man?"
AFO asked as he sat with life support hooked up to him, for more then a year now he was still using multiple different quirks and machines to maintain his health.
"Master, this young man has a very unique Quirks I assure you he will be of use to us, and if you wish it's yours."
Matou gave the Doctor an unamused stare,
"So he thinks of magic as quirks, huh."
AFO also gave Matou of what one can assume was a stare from his eyeless face,
"Still getting use to this sonar, infrared, and other vision replacement quirks, this isn't too difficult...sigh* but let's see based on the report both Kuro and Garaki gave me earlier Matou can use people to create some type of shadow minions that are quite powerful. Hmm They will be quite of use to me against Allmight and the Blonde hair brat.."
What troubles AFO was this Matou's quirk it's too interesting and shouldn't exist, even if he were to make something similar he may need hundreds of quirks to create one that's maybe much weaker.
"Well there needs to be a partnership then we should get to know each other, who are you?"
"I am Zouken Matou, as of now ex-student of the Clock Tower and to say the least like you a criminal."
AFO nods his head,
"The clock tower, is quite the prestigious school, I am to assume the expelling is because of your action..."
"Yes, and let's cut to the chase, provide for what I need and I may do my best to provide what you need."
This enraged Garaki and finally he snapped,
"Matou!! I had enough I put up with your plans and listen to you insult my name, but you will not disrespect my Master..."
A blade touched Garaki's neck, and behind stood five shadowy figures,
"When did you...When did you summon more?!!"
"Hmm? Oh these guys well why would I originally only brought three with me as a Vanguard when I left Japan, because after all making them on site is more efficient."
AFO was now very intrigued as a grin grew in his face.
"Fascinating, nothing was triggered, not the security system nor any of my quirks...all I felt was my instincts blaring..."
"Zouken Matou if you would please release Dr.Garaki, we can continue to talk about our benefits for one another?"
AFO said as he was planning for something and Matou agrees, secretly smiling inside.
A few minutes of Matou and AFO meeting, Matou left the room, and Dr.Garaki immediately went to his masters aid.
That's when he saw AFO smile souring and blood seeped from his mouth.
"Master?!"
AFO held out his hand,
"Garaki I'm fine, phhhruggh!! It's...it's not a quirk!"
Garaki looks at him confusingly and aides his master while dialing for Kurogiri to come into the room.
"Master and Dr.Garaki you called? What's wrong Master?"
"Zouken Matou has no quirk, I tried taking his quirk the long way by just simply shaking his hand so that I don't raise any suspicion, but I felt almost nothing until I met it."
He finally wiped the blood off his mouth with a napkin and drinks some water Kurogiri brought,
"That thing I felt...I thought I was gaining something for a second...but then the next thing I knew was that I tried activating this power, only for me to realize the price it takes. It was a hefty price as It begins to erase the quirks I collected, strangely enough I was able to chose which quirks to be erased but when I don't erase any while trying to activate this ability It began to eat away my very body."
AFO raised his hand to see the drops of blood that was still there, so he wipes it off.
"Matou is quirkless...that I know, but he is not powerless...Garaki and Kurogiri treat this 'ally' well and keep and eye on him."
After receiving their voices of agreement AFO rested his head, he felt really tired and ordered the room to be cleared out, but then he remembered something.
"Garaki...Kurogiri I feel like our foreign friends have done their fair share. Let's give them their pay for their usages."
"It's Already done Master, I given them a location and have just transported them to Dr.Garaki's laboratory."
Kurogiri answers as Dr.Garaki pulls up a tablet and gave AFO the details of their quirks, and physical state to be processed through to be made into a biological weapon.
"Nomu."
Although they've made quite a few over the years, not a lot retain intelligence many are just mindless puppets listening to commands.
"Hmm...Garaki let Matou create some servants with these, but of course run a few different test to see what we can create with them...and Also find me this Midoriya family...it's part of our little deal."
Few days later in the Airport
"Where's Mr. Goredolf, actually where is Kischur, Rin, and Luvia?"
Izuku asked in the airport,
"Oh, from what it seem like Those four will be having a long talk with the Mage association, and something about funds. So for this trips it's Just us servants and their one and only Master."
Da Vinci announced as everyone boarded their private flight.
Within a few hours they've arrived in Cairo Airport, and checked into their rooms.
Abigail looks around and slightly pouts a bit,
"Aww...Mordred, Fran and Nero aren't here..."
Abigail says as Izuku hands her some snacks,
"Yeah, it's a bit different but hey atleast we're not alone!!"
Izuku said as he gestured to everyone traveling with them.
The streets of Cairo was colorful filled with different people selling goods of all sorts, Izuku and Abigail walked through the streets with wonder as they were trailed by the adult servants.
There were foods and cool little items that are sold for many years along the street, but something caught Izuku's eyes.
It was a necklace, Izuku by all means hadn't had to much interest in little trinkets like these, but has begin to develop an eye for viewing these things.
He felt there was more to it, Da Vinci also noticed it as well,
"Da Vinci can you ask the man how much for the necklace?"
After a short exchange the vendor face kept on changing and seeing how Da Vinci was handling it Izuku was wondering what's wrong.
"Da Vinci?"
She looked over at the boy and explained to him what the Vendor said,
"Well you see Izuku...this vendor here said the necklace is worth 33,000egp, he claims that this Necklace belongs to a wife of a ancient Pharaoh. Although I asked how he got it and which Pharaoh was it from he refused to answer and ask us if we are buying or not, however this is the real deal..."
The servant who were also viewing different goods came over after hearing Da Vinci words, Qin came over and asked the Vendor for the item for a closer look.
The vendor was reluctant and annoyed, but the aura given off by Qin made him comply to his wishes,
"Hmm... We expected nothing less from Da Vinci, seeing the true value of this necklace, and Master too, for this is indeed a real piece, it's intricate, well done, and the slight weathering of this necklace shows the age and how well it was kept. However this is suspicious on how this vendor got his hands on this item though."
The vendor although couldn't understand Japanese immediately begins to sweat and holds up 6 fingers.
"Hmm, it seems like he dropped it to 6,000egp no more no less."
Da Vinci translate to Izuku, and Qin approach him once more to ask more about this item. The Vendor now begins to sweat even more and broke under Qin's Gaze and spilled the beans.
"Qin, what's wrong he seems to be freaking out?"
Izuku asked a bit worried that the servant were intimidating the vendor,
"He is troubled, all he knows that this necklace was from a pharaoh but doesn't know which, as it kept being passed by one hand to another very quickly. He originally accepted it only for the ideals of profit and was blinded by the possibility of making a fortune. In reality it was a curse, he would have nightmares of himself being punished for a crime, and that his sales on anything was plummeted. Now he is desperate to get his hands off of this necklace, but he wants to make atleast some money...as he is starving for quite sometime and need it to pay for his family."
Izuku saw there was a flaw on the vendors logic,
"Why didn't he just throw it away, or donate it to a museum?"
Qin asked the vendor who answered to Qin,
"Apparently when he tried it, the necklace would bizarrely come back to him, as for the museum, it maybe troublesome as this is technically a stolen artifact, and his status wouldn't be the best to return this item...he may end up in jail. He tried selling to his fellow vendors but this necklace's name exceeded its value so no one would buy it, accept it, or even want to touch it."
There was a short pause until Izuku spoke up,
"We'll take it..Da Vinci give him the original price..."
"But Izuku!! This thing is cursed why would you want this?!"
Abigail asked in which Izuku just smiled a bit,
"Well to return it to its rightful owner...and to help this person out..I mean he was just another victim down the line and he wasn't the one to steal it first so I feel we're doing what's right. If it's really curse I can still count on you guys right?"
With that some of the servants sighed while some looked confident with their skills in helping Izuku, Jeanne especially.
"Worry not for the lord's blessing will make sure this curse doesn't land."
Jeanne said with a smile while Scathach just gave Izuku a simple advice,
"Be careful, somethings are more then what they seem on the outside, and you shouldn't do things so easily for it may make you regret ever accepting it."
With that advice Izuku nods,
"It's just this once it should be fine right?"
"Sigh* I feel Master will accept more in the future so I'm afraid I won't believe that this will be a one time thing."
With that Shakespeare and Chiron laughed,
"Phahaha, Indeed, I too feel that Master won't stop accepting problems like this, in the near future."
"Yes, it's as Shakespeare says, Izuku you accept many things too easily, troubles especially seems to attract to you, but you accept the responsibility to right the wrong of these troubles as well."
Chiron says as he shakes his head but smiles Atalanta was the same,
"Indeed, but worry not it's as you say we'll watch your back."
The servants all nodded as Da Vinci gave the man the cash to buy the Necklace, the vendor was really happy and handed each and everyone a gift for their help.
In Penthesilea's hand was a Chariot with a rider doll that looked like a carrot,
"Ac...Chilles!!"
Within in instant the doll was crushed to pieces, and everyone around Penthesilea did their best to calm her down. Meanwhile the Vendor, Izuku, and Abigail just watched the scene unfold.
That night
Da Vinci was in her room studying the necklace and looking for the true owner,
"These decorations, and age...it seems familiar to something 'he' would give..."
She has a clear idea who this possibly belong to, but made sure to check it thoroughly once more.
"This is very odd, there is no sign of mana nor spell activation on this necklace, so how did it end up being the cursed necklace."
By the time she notice it was almost morning so she decided to just place the necklace in a box for safe keeping.
During Lunch Da Vinci was discussing her findings with Qin,Scathach, and Chiron while the others took Izuku and Abigail on another tour of the City.
"We assume Da Vinci you've found the true owner?"
"It's as you say emperor, I have indeed but it quite troublesome..."
Scathach looked up from her tea after the last part,
"In what ways?"
"This necklace is said to be cursed, however I found nothing of that like, I searched the in and out of the necklace but there was nothing not even the faintest traces of mana."
The servants each examines the necklace and saw nothing odd about it, and Chiron pointed something out,
"This is too much of a coincidence for those series of curses to not be related to anything of our matter...Do you think it's the owners doing, the true owner?"
Da Vinci closed her eyes and drinker a bit of her tea before replying,
"it's very likely, Chaldea experience many thing even servants manifesting themselves without the need of Mash's shield nor the Fujimaru's summon, so it's likely that this maybe it's form of interaction."
As she takes a breathe and examines the necklace once again,
"Sigh, well we either let Izuku summon him, or be able to meet with him... I just hope it will be less chaotic."
Qin looks over at Da Vinci and asked,
"We haven't been with you all for too long, but these dream meeting Izuku have are unstable and unpredictable correct?"
Da Vinci nods,
"It could range from peaceful to dangerous, and it could either show the servants past or events such as singularity, lostbelt, other summoning to just another alternate universe...I do have to say when creating this new system into the Fujimaru's bloodline we never imagine it to reach this level...it's almost similar to Kischur second magic."
Qin smiled,
"Yīqiè dōu shì tiānyì... we'll just go with it after all it is fate that we return and it's fate that we are brought as one side rather then opposing...whatever our little master will do we'll see to it, and if he is walking down the wrong path we'll guide him back, but if he were too far gone...we'll end it."
With that Statement Chiron looks over,
"So we'll just leave this possible meeting to Izuku then?"
There were no answer but a shrug, as they already knew the answer, and there is still no way of interventions.
With a collective sigh they turned over to see Izuku returning and they just smiled
"He'll probably be fine"
(?) Kingdom
"Your Majesty, we've brought you this thief who dares to steal from you!"
A Guardman explains as he drops Izuku to his knees,
"Where am I, who are these people...oh no it's that ordeal"
Izuku looked up to see a tanned skinned man seated upon a throne where the light of sun shines on him brightly lighting up his golden accessories .
"So this young vermin dares to steal from my love...you explain yourself then."
His tone was still, but something about it is familiar.
"I...I'm here to return this to its rightful owner.."
This made the Guard slightly angry,
"You dare tell lies to the pharaoh, you insignificant child!!"
With that he pushed Izuku's head towards the ground,
"Your majesty, with your words we will send this thief on his way to the other side."
The guard looks up to see a slightly annoyed Pharaoh,
"Who gave you permission to carry out my orders without me even saying a word...are you claiming to know my every thought?"
With a single glare the guard released Izuku and bowed onto his head somehow lower then Izuku,
"No...your Majesty No I would never..."
"Then leave, I'll speak with this vermin now go.."
The Guards and surrounding advisors all left, with the guard that brought Izuku in whisper something into the boys ear,
"... child, your life has been forfeited...if you were a regular thief there maybe mercy, but you stole from his majesty most treasured, be prepared to face your death."
With that only the Pharaoh and Izuku were left in the room. The Pharaoh waited for the boy to speak, as he flips through his daily documents, when he saw the boy was not going to speak he decided to open up,
"For a lowly vermin you have a lot of bravery letting the pharaoh speak first...now that you have made me speak first... answer me truthfully where did you get this necklace."
Izuku immediately apologize,
"I'm sorry it's just...I didn't know what to say to tell you that I didn't do it...I simply wanted to return this to its rightful owner after...after it's been wrongfully taken and sold...from her...tomb..."
This sparked anger in the Pharaoh,
"My beloved...she hasn't even passed yet, and here you are spouting about her death and thievery of her tomb..."
He glared at Izuku once again,
"Enough of this nonsense, Guards come and take him to a cell, tomorrow we'll decide what to do with him."
Still a bit afraid Izuku cheered himself up and hoped for the better,
"Well...I'm sure everything will be fine since I'm just returning the necklace."
Izuku was taken away to a cell it was dark lighten up only with a torch which showed an elderly man who sits in the corner. Seeing this Izuku gave him a bow, as a sign of respect and apology for intruding this place.
As he sat he thought to himself how he got here, it has been several days since they have gotten the necklaces and finally located the actual site of where it belongs.
This Necklace was a gift from Ozymandias to his most beloved wife Nefertari, according to some historical records her tomb was indeed ransacked many decades ago so this was truly hers.
It would've been right to give it to a museum, but knowing Servants and how they interacted with the world this may be spitting on their Grave so it's best to return it.
"Upon reaching the site I fainted ..."
The thought was quickly disrupted by a guard who dropped off the 'dinner' for the prisoners,
"There's only one?"
Izuku asked, he wanted to asked the guard but a quick glance at them he knew it's best not to bother them.
Izuku looks over at the older man and see him as quite frail so he picks up the meal and hands it to the elder.
"Child, you don't need to give up this meal for a old man like me, my time should be up soon, so eat them yourself as I still see a future ahead of you.."
"It's fine sir, I've eaten not long ago, so I am quite full, but I feel you should have this, you must have not eaten in a long time!"
The elder looks at Izuku and chuckled slightly,
"Indeed it's been quite some time since I last eaten...how about we split it?"
The two slightly argued for a bit until Izuku found out there no way to make him budge so he complied, and the two begin to talk a bit.
"My Name Is Izuku Midoriya, it's nice to meet you...?"
"Just call me Sabbah..."
He replied as he sips the porridge,
"So Izuku, what brings you a child, possibly no older then 10 to prison?"
"Well I...we bought a necklace that was stolen from its rightful owner, we wanted to return it...but I was mistaken as a thief."
The elder eyes slightly glistened,
"That's unfortunate, but I do believe you are innocent...it does seem like that they won't let you go so easily..."
"Then I'll just try again to tell them I'm not a thief...I don't know how else I'll do it, and I doubt I can escape, but if I do escape then wouldn't that just say I'm guilty.."
With that the elder slightly grinned,
"Then I'll be watching how this turns out then...you should go to sleep, knowing them they'll start your trial early in the morning.."
"Oh, okay...Umm Mr.Sabbah where will you sleep?"
"Hm? This corner will be fine, you already given me your share of food no need to offer me your bed as well...I insist.."
Izuku knows not to argue so he gave his thanks and crawled into the 'bed' of this cell.
Sabbah watched over the boy for awhile and smiled as he was reminded of a few travelers he met a long time ago,
"Contractors"
The sun rises and Izuku was taken out of his cell, and dropped once again in the large room.
"Have a night in prison taught you to tell the truth...?"
"Hello, your Majesty...and the answer is still the same I am returning the necklace that was stolen and being sold... that's...that's all.."
The Pharaoh looks at the boy once more knowing he told the truth, and the room became deadly silent, but everyone knew the Pharaoh was angered not by the boy but by the real thieves.
The ground seemed to shake and the pressure was crushing Izuku he felt like he couldn't breathe until Sabbah step infront of Izuku.
"Mr.Sabbah?"
"Hello Contractor , are you alright?"
"I'm okay wait ...Contractor?"
The Pharaoh at the site of this and shivered slightly that no one was able to notice.
"Who...are you?"
"Hmph, have you forgotten me so easily the King of The Sun? Or Shall I make you remember?"
As Sabbah finished that question he tears off his rags that was wrapped around him and grew to a new height while wearing a dark armor.
A wave of energy collided with the Pharaohs pressure, and suddenly the room was no more just a while void space with Izuku, Sabbah, and the Pharaoh stood in.
"So it's is you...Old Man of the Mountains!"
"Indeed it is I, and have you finally awaken from your dreams or shall I severe it to wake you up Ozymandias?"
(Omake) Back in Japan
"Hmm...a little to the right...some more...a little more..No!! Now your too far, back a little no wait that was a good a few second ago so go back, UMU, now the decorations complete for my shelf onto my other collection."
A tick mark appeared on Mordred's head and she threw down the bust of Julius Caesar.
"THATS IT I HAD ENOUGH!!!"
"Noooo why did you do this to my uncle, I mean he doesn't look like this anymore but still why you brute!!"
Mordred was more annoyed now,
"Oyoyoy, you father face stealing double, the first we arrived you dragged us shopping that I couldn't complain about, and Carrying the stuff fine, but for the pass two day you made me and everyone else build your room for you...and issue these unclear requests..."
Mordred cracks her knuckles and then her neck, ready to throw down.
That was quickly stopped by Inko who walked in with Lancelot, Fran, and Asterios.
"You two please calm yourself, Mordred thank you for your hard work for these days go ahead and take a rest, and Nero how about I help you here?"
"I...would also Like to help.."
Asterios said quietly and in which Inko smiled at Him who smiled at the approval and now both just waited on Nero,
"Fine...I mean thank you if it isn't to much trouble."
Mordred left them to finish the room with Lancelot(Berserker) and Fran following.
She looked around this building the new Chaldea and just smiled a bit. It was large and fit to house every servant that was once in Chaldea, not to mention the different things made to accommodate everyone and let them stay quite comfortably.
"Man...I'm starving let's go eat what do you two say?"
"Mm..."
"Arrggh!!"
And the trio left for the dining room or just the cafeteria and spotted Salieri and Spartacus who were unpacking groceries.
"Yo, Spartacus are you the one cooking tonight?"
"Ahh, Mordred no it is not I who would, that task is always taken by Mrs.Midoriya and Archer together, I would assist, but my cooking is quite bare..."
The giant man answers with a grin,
"I would prefer not to eat your cooking with all do respect, I already have enough trouble trying to prevent your arrest every time we run errands."
Salieri calls out from the walk in fridge, apparently due to Spartacus' nature he had quite a few run in with trouble and authority. So it was usually up to Salieri calming things down.
"Well...the fight for Oppression should never be stopped!!"
Spartacus yelled out proudly but no one rebuttal his claims today,
"Although he's like that he's no wrong, in order to use your power you need to be a hero, or your a criminal..it makes sense but what happens when you need to step in, when no authority or heroes are around, or if their just standing there...you intervene then what you either get scolded, arrested, or just get spotted for your power..."
Mordred said with her arms crossed,
"Man this sucks, no wonder Izuku is so set on changes... and those who have the titles of heroes what a joke..."
There was a nod of agreement before Mordred talked again,
"I'm so hungry!! When's Archer Comin back?!"
Salieri took out his watch,
"Hmm, this is strange if I remember correctly Spartacus and I were just picking up bulk sales item, while Li and Archer went to pick up fresh food...they should've been back around an hour or two ago."
They all waited twenty more minutes before the door open and they all turned their head to see two figures,
"Yoo, we're back and we fished some eels for tonight.
Cu said proudly as he and Achilles were drenched carrying in bamboo basket filled with eels,
"Speaking of dinner I don't see anything is something wrong with Archer tonight?"
Achilles asked as he drops off the basket near the sink, and turn to everyone to see them all shrugging. Where was Li and Archer?
Somewhere in Musutafa
"It's just a geezer and a delinquent we can take the...ahhhh!!"
A thug with shark like features falls to the ground after a kick.
"Hmmm what was the old saying again ahh yes, all talks but no bite was it, quite fitting."
Li said as he retracted his feet. Meanwhile another thug turns his fist into rocks charges at Li,
"What's wrong gramps too fast for yah?!"
With in instant his rock fist was slices to bits, as his hands turn back and he falls back in fear,
"Sigh* we are in big trouble, we still got dinner to make, hopefully their not causing problems back home..."
Emiya said as his blades disappeared from his hands, and walked towards Li.
"If that's the case then we should finish this soon..."
With those words it enraged some of the thugs,
"Don't you dare look down on...ahhhhhh!!!"
His legs were broken by Li's kick,
"Sigh* in order to be looked down upon you must be able to be even caught by our gazes, but in reality you just caught our annoyance..."
After 5 mins the group of 15 thugs were disposed of, Emiya and Li picked up their groceries and left the scenes from the rooftops.
"Li...Explain how did we get into this mess again?"
"Hmm, oh right we're just carrying out our roles as the 'hero of Justices' isn't that right Emiya?"
With that Emiya slightly trips on the rooftop making Li chuckle,
"Please don't be like that Li... please don't dig up my past."
"Haha... everyone had a moment like that when they were young, but what we are doing is just doing something these so called heroes weren't doing fast enough."
Li thought back to moment's ago after finishing their shopping, when they saw the thugs trying to kidnap a girl from her bodyguards.
The guards were professionals, but due to the numbers they were overrun, and their mistress taken.
Seeing this Emiya couldn't let it sit and he felt Li also shared the same idea and jumped into action. As the bystander were all just yelling and screaming, and no heroes were at the scene, the jumped straight to work.
The thugs took the girl quite some distance into an abandoned building, but before they could rest Li burst in with Emiya and dispatched the closes of them.
Emiya then using the opening to take the Girl back to her Bodyguard before coming back to finish the Job with Li.
After finishing his thoughts, Li looked over at to see Emiya also smiling,
"I am also right to assume that you did this so the families won't be distraught at the thought of their daughter gone?"
Li smiled back, that was Indeed the case, To Li the word family means a lot and he values it so that was the idea when jumping in to save the young lady.
"Haha, you've seen right through this old man."
With that the two return home to the hungry glares of the awaiting servants, Emiya accepting his fate shouts,
"Alright alright I'll go ahead and make dinner."
But before he could move into the kitchen a voice stoped him.
"Hold it, what's with this congregation on unclean personnel, did all of you wash and sanitized yourself before coming into the dining room?"
Nightingale appeared and everyone ran out the room to get cleaned first.
At the Abandoned Building
"What is happening these past few months..."
A tired Eraserhead asked himself as he looked at all the tied up thugs with some broken limbs, when a man approached him.
"That's my question as well, how has things been going for you Eraserhead?"
"Hmm...a bit tired but nothing more how are you then Detective Tsukauchi?"
The man takes off his hat and sighed,
"Could be better, but I do find it strange on the rise of vigilante activities around Shizuoka Prefectures...I understand where their coming from but they really shouldn't interfere with official actions.."
Tsukauchi looks around and thought of him and Eraserhead's experiences with a different groups of Vigilante years ago, but he and Eraserhead are both men of law so this isn't something they can look over.
"So...how is the girl? Is she alright?"
"Oh yes, she is a heiress of a certain family so it's a good thing they were able to get to her back, but it's strange Eraser..."
"How so?"
"These people, who done this...so far we couldn't find anything about them, these pass months..."
Eraserhead nodded he too have been researching these Vigilante but found nothing, no camera captures them, no dna trails despite the amount of blood at times, and witnesses reports from both criminals and people were off.
"It's as if we weren't meant to know about them...Tsukauchi do think their government affiliated then?"
"It can't be ruled out, but then Allmight and many top heroes should know about it, even you and your fellow underground heroes should've heard about it too..."
The two were having major headaches, just when will these Bizzare cases end.
An: Hello everyone thank you all for once again reading this story and I hope everyone is doing well. I probably won't be able to go back to weekly upload, so far seems to be one to maybe two a month sorry about that schedules aren't the best for free time Writing. After all I just graduated this month time to find work. I will say this again apologize for any mistakes, really tired.
Also I tried to roll for Simayi in FGO they gave me Achilles (a rider for a rider) So ain't to bad and then I tried for this Months Jalter and I felt the salt, 30sq and gave me Lancelot (Saber). Lol
Was thinking about doing small side stories of Servants in Japan and went ahead and did it in bottom of this Chapter. May write some more of these small side stories from time to time.
Anyways I'll see you all next time.
Reinkasahi: Thanks for your comment and glad you enjoyed it, and sadly yes it is Ozy, like nothing against him it's just that like US and many other country there really isn't much of a selection pool to choose from.
Keybladelight: Thank you for the comment and we'll see we'll see as that's still some times away.
HLBRS-B: well I guess if you count the summoning time as Their birth time then I guess that would make Mordred younger
NoNoSquareBoi: ah long time no see how's it been and glad to see you back
SaiHikawa: Thank you for your complement, and I understand that beta would greatly help I just don't know how to get one, and really how it works. I'm also afraid of how uploads would go as well As I tried to write this whenever I am Free so it's kinda hard to work a schedule with someone sorry.
Hexenbiest: thank you for reading and I know, sorry about the grammar still trying my best working on it.
