Kaien and Artoria opened their eyes to see that they were on a bed. Kaien sat up and took the mask off and transformed back into normal.
"Are we back in our time?" Artoria asked.
"Not sure," Ichigo replied.
"Scáthach, Medea, Zealot. Please respond." Ichigo thought.
"You're back," Scáthach replied.
"I am," Ichigo replied.
"When will his holiness grace us with his presence?" Zealot asked.
"Give me a few hours. I need to take care of a few things." Ichigo replied.
"Very well," Scáthach replied.
"By the way, how many days have passed since we left?" Artoria asked.
"It's only been a day," Medea said.
"Oh good," Ichigo said. Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Enter," Ichigo said. The door opened and a female servant entered.
"Amaterasu-sama has requested your presence when you are available." The servant said.
"Very well. Give us a few minutes." Ichigo replied.
"Here is a set of clothes you both of you." She said before leaving the room. Ichigo and Artoria changed out of their old clothes and placed the informal kimonos on. Ichigo was dressed in a navy-blue kimono and hakama with a white obi belt. Artoria was dressed in a dark violet-black kimono and hakama with a red obi belt. They walked out of the room where she stood by.
"Follow me." She led them down a familiar hallway. They arrived to see Amaterasu sitting at a table with a pot of tea and three cups.
"Hello, Amaterasu-sama." They greeted.
"Ichigo, Artoria. Please sit." They sat down in front of Amaterasu. The servant poured them a cup of tea.
"You are good to go," Amaterasu said to the servant. She nodded her head and left. Amaterasu turned to Ichigo and Artoria. "Is there anything you wish to talk about?"
"I do," Ichigo said. "Before I was sent back to my time, I discovered my body in one of these rooms; locked in a barrier." Amaterasu sighed.
"I didn't expect you to find that," Amaterasu said. "Allow me to explain," Amaterasu said as she took out a sheet of paper and a pencil. "Have you heard of the Many Universe Theory?" She said. Artoria shook her head.
"The Many Universe Theory is that theory that states every possible outcome does happen, but we are only able to see one," Ichigo said. Amaterasu nodded her head.
"Artoria is an excellent example of this. You are already aware of at least four different versions of yourself. The 'inhuman' King with Excalibur, the tyrannical King with Excalibur, the divine King with Rhongomyniad and the demonic King with Rhongomyniad." Amaterasu said. Artoria nodded her head. She remembered when Ichigo used the Chaos Piece on her somehow it allowed her to absorb both versions of herself with Rhongomyniad.
"So, the Many Universe Theory is correct?" Ichigo asked.
"Not fully," Amaterasu said. "The multiverse isn't able to handle all the different universes based on small insignificant changes. So, the multiverse selects those beings whose actions may change the world forever. Those being's actions or inaction create different universes." Amaterasu said.
"It makes sense," Artoria said.
"How does my body gets involved with this?" Ichigo asked.
"I'm getting there. So when I sent you to help Genryusai, I sent you to a different universe but remained on the same date."
"So you're saying that day I arrived to see Genryusai and Aku was the same date you sent me off?" Ichigo asked.
"Correct," Amaterasu said. "But when both of you entered that time portal, you traveled back in time without a tether."
"A tether?" Ichigo asked.
"When we send someone back in time, we have a magical tether in place, so we know which set of situations are required to result in you going back in time in the first place. The tether is strong enough for 7 years." Amaterasu said.
"Which is why Mórrígan required your help to extend the tether to 14 years."
"Correct," Amaterasu said.
"But there wasn't a tether when Genryusai and I entered the time portal to get back to his time," Ichigo said.
"But I did give you one," Amaterasu said. "I kissed your forehead, giving you a magical tether for the previous seven years."
"What about the rest of the time?" Amaterasu sighed.
"We were forced to do the riskier method."
"Which is?" Artoria asked.
"I wiped myself of my memory of you as an attempt to prevent jeopardizing the fate of the others."
"I see…" So what about my body?" Ichigo asked.
"Your body was placed in a pocket dimension where the time flowed so slowly it would be centuries before it was a second for you. Then you slowly travel to the future." Amaterasu said.
"Why?" Artoria asked.
"If we were to send someone forward in time, it could destabilize the other timelines, sending ripples through the other alternative universes.
"And I assumed that you did the same method for us."
"Indeed. This time I had the entire tether to use, to make sure you are in the correct universe." Amaterasu said.
"I see…" Ichigo said.
"Anyways, I promised to grant you a reward for this," Amaterasu said. "Yhwach, can you give me an unnamed Schrift." She asked.
"Very well," Yhwach said from Ichigo's mindscape as a white ball of energy appeared in front of Ichigo. Amaterasu took the unnamed Schrift. She concentrated for a few moments. The white ball began to glow golden red dots. She placed the Schrift back down on the table.
"This schrift is filled with my blessing." Amaterasu started. "When invoked, you summon a replica of Ame no Murakumo no Tsurugi." Amaterasu raised her hand as nodachi appeared. It was a long with a silver blade and a charred black edge. It has a simple circular tsuba with a handle crimson, like the sun. Everyone could hear sizzling from the nodachi. A small smoke trail began to appear. "This is my Ame no Murakumo no Tsurugi, your replica is similar to this." Amaterasu flicked her hand, returning Ame no Murakumo no Tsurugi back to where she kept it. "You are granted a few abilities. The first is that with this schrift active, you slowly gain more power as the sun slowly rises with full power at noon but, you slowly lose power as the sunsets. The second ability is regarding the Ame no Murakumo no Tsurugi. The heat of the sun (5,505°C or 9,941°F) is concentrated along the edge of the blade. It neither burns nor erupts, but anything it touches is eradicated to nothingness." Amaterasu said. You can also use Divine Energy and use my signature Black Flames." Amaterasu said.
"Wait… Divine Energy?" Ichigo question.
"Gods and Goddess have their energy, different from humans." Amaterasu began. "It's possible to harm Gods and Goddess with reiatsu but by using Divine Energy makes it much more effective."
"I see… thank you for the ability," Ichigo thanked.
"No problem Ichigo," Amaterasu thanked. "Now where was I…" Amaterasu took the opportunity to sip her tea. "Ah, I remember now. The last ability is that your body is enveloped by the sun. It becomes impossible to even touch you while this ability is active. This ability if not controlled could damage the environment around you."
"I see…" Ichigo said as he picked up the schrift. "I, Kurosaki Ichigo, bestow upon myself this schrift," Ichigo said as he pushed it into himself. Suddenly he felt his entire body is on fire. Ichigo could feel Schrift I: The Ignatius merge with the new Schrift.
"Grr," Ichigo growled as he tried to resist the intense heat. Soon the heat calmed down.
"Ichigo. Are you ok?" Artoria asked, seeing the drops of sweat on his forehead.
"I'm…fine," Ichigo said. Amaterasu smiled.
"The few who earned the honor of my blessing has commented about the intense heat when the blessing was first bestowed upon them."
"I see…" Ichigo said. "I call this Schrift T: The Taiyō [Sun]," Ichigo said. Amaterasu continued to smile.
"When you return to Britain, Mórrígan will contact you about her side of the deal," Amaterasu said.
"Very well," Ichigo said.
"Anything else I can do for you?" She asked.
"Can you send us to Yasaka's office?" Ichigo requested.
"Very well." The nearby shōji began to glow golden as Ichigo and Artoria stood up.
"Thank you Amaterasu-sama." They said before sliding the shōji open and entering Yasaka's office.
Scene Change: Yasaka's office
Yasaka was in her office reading various reports about the Yōkai population.
"Hm…Mikogami sent me and the rest of the Yōkai in Ichigo's peerage an invitation to the annual School Festival. Maybe I should bring this to Ichigo." Yasaka considered. "Imagine the student's reaction to seeing Akasha at the festival." Yasaka thought with a Cheshire grin. Her shōji door began to glow golden. Yasaka straightened her desk up as she waited for her guest. The shōji slid open as Ichigo and Artoria entered her office.
"Ichigo. Artoria. What are you two doing here? Last I heard, both of you were in Britain."
"We were. But Amaterasu sent us both on a mission." Artoria replied.
"I see…" Yasaka said. Ichigo turned to Artoria.
"I need to have a private word with Yasaka," Ichigo said. Artoria gave him a confused look.
"Ok. I'll be outside." Artoria said as she stood up and left Yasaka's office.
"Seal this room," Ichigo commanded Yasaka through the peerage link. Yasaka raised her hand and sealed the room. Ichigo closed his end of the peerage link, preventing anyone from overhearing him.
"Yasaka. Who was Kunou's father?" Ichigo asked. Yasaka lightly blushed.
"Why do you ask," Yasaka asked.
"I know who Kunou's father," Ichigo said.
"Huh?" Yasaka questioned. A few weeks after Yasaka was pregnant, she sent people to search for her one-night stand. She couldn't find him at all. In the end, Yasaka raised Kunou alone. "Ichigo. You better not be lying to me." She growled.
"Then tell me what you remember," Ichigo said.
"Kunou's father was a Japanese man with black hair and matching black eyes. He has-" Yasaka's eyes widen midsentence.
"He looked like this…" Ichigo said as his face transformed in Kaien Shiba. Yasaka's eyes widen in shock. "On that night, you were in your Sayaka disguise but with longer hair. You were dressed in a pink yukata. You sat on a bench, crying and drinking." Ichigo said.
"But-but that means." Yasaka began to say.
"Kunou is my biological daughter," Ichigo answered as he transformed back.
"So…what should we do about this," Yasaka asked.
"Well… we could tell everyone the truth, tell Kunou the truth, or keep silent about it." Ichigo said.
"I honestly want to tell Kunou," Yasaka said. When she was born, her fur, hairs, and eyes weren't that color. I used blood magic to create an illusion that we all see." Yasaka admitted.
"I see…" Ichigo said. "I believe we need to tell Kunou the truth and then we decide what to do from there," Ichigo concluded.
"I agree." Yasaka stood up from her desk and walked to another set of shōji. She unsealed just that door. She slid it open. "Bring Kunou to my office immediately," Yasaka ordered one of her guards.
"Yes, Yasaka-Hime-sama." The guards saluted and ran to retrieve Kunou. Yasaka didn't need to wait long as the guard quickly returned with Kunou on his shoulders, enjoying the ride. The guard took a knee, allowing Kunou to get off.
"Mama," Kunou shouted as she ran to her mother.
"Hello, Kunou," Yasaka replied. She picked up Kunou and took her inside her office. She quickly sealed her office behind her.
"Papa!" Kunou shouted as she ran to Ichigo.
"Hello, Kunou," Ichigo said as he picked her up.
"Ichigo put her down," Yasaka said. Ichigo put Kunou down in one of the nearby chairs. "Kunou we need to have a serious talk."
"Did I do something wrong?" Kunou asked.
"No. It's not you." Yasaka said as she glanced at Ichigo.
"Yesterday, Amaterasu-sama had a mission for me. She sent me back in time."
"Just like The Girl Who Leapt Through Time?" Kunou asked. Ichigo cracked a smile.
"Something like that," Ichigo said. "Now then, I went back in time and I found out who your father is." Kunou's eyes widen.
"Really?"
"I did. I know him."
"Can I meet him?" Kunou asked.
"Are you sure Kunou? Do you want to meet your biological father?"
"Bio-ical?" Kunou said.
"It means your father by blood," Ichigo said.
"Oh. I do. I want to ask him why he abandoned me and Kaa-san." Kunou said. Ichigo sighed.
"When I went back in time, I somehow met your mother," Ichigo said.
"You're my real father?" Kunou realized.
"I am," Ichigo said. Kunou looked at Yasaka.
"Is Papa lying?"
"Honey he isn't," Yasaka confirmed. Kunou tackled Ichigo. She began to cry and hug him tight. Ichigo gently hugged her back. Yasaka moved and joined in their hug. Kunou continued to cry, tears of joy. Kunou soon stopped crying.
"But if you're my real papa, how come I don't look like you?" She asked.
"I used magic to hide your real features," Yasaka admitted. She placed bit her finger. A bit of blood began to drip out. She used her blood and drew the kanji 公演 [Reveal] on Kunou's forehead. Suddenly Kunou's golden blond hair, foxtails, and ears slightly darken to an orange blonde. Her golden eyes turned slightly brown. Yasaka showed Kunou a mirror. She gasped.
"I looked like a mix of Kaa-san and Papa." She said.
"Indeed, you do," Ichigo replied.
"Now that I know who Kunou's real father is, the coloration makes sense," Yasaka said.
"Now then, should we reveal this to everyone or just the peerage?" Ichigo asked.
"I feel that this should remain a secret to the general public," Yasaka said.
"I agree. The golden blonde and the orange blonde are two distinctly different physical traits. Fewer people would make the connection that they belong to one person." Ichigo said.
"What about the peerage?" Yasaka asked.
"I think we should do it in a few days," Ichigo said.
"A few days?"
"Yes. After this, I need to go back to Britain. I have a meeting over there." Ichigo said.
"I see…" Yasaka said. She used her bloody finger and drew 幻想 (Illusion) on Kunou's forehead, hiding her true self again. "Is there anything else?"
"Nope. See you in a few days." Ichigo said as Yasaka unsealed her office. Ichigo walked out to see Artoria standing guard outside. She followed behind Ichigo.
"So where are we going?" She asked.
"Back to Britain. We need to say hi to everyone." Ichigo said. Artoria groaned. She remembered her conversation with Fleur. Ichigo and Artoria left Yasaka's shrine. Ichigo founded an empty alleyway.
"So how are we going back to London?" Artoria asked.
"We are going to use Garganta," Ichigo said. "You may be able to travel through the Garganta without my car," Ichigo theorized.
"How?" Artoria asked.
"By using your spirit form," Ichigo said. Artoria nodded her head as she shifted into her spirit form. Ichigo opened a Garganta. Ichigo jumped in the Garganta. Artoria followed right after.
Scene Change: London: Hotel 41
(Everything is in English)
Scáthach, Medea, and Zealot were in their hotel room. Scáthach and Medea were watching TV. Zealot was standing on the side, looking at the window. Suddenly a Garganta opened up. Scáthach and Medea jumped off the couch. They shifted into their spirit form, ready for the invader. Ichigo and Artoria walked out of it and resumed physical form.
"Hello everyone. It's been a long time." Ichigo said. Scáthach and Medea lowered their weapons.
"And a short time for us," Medea replied.
"Are all of you busy?" Ichigo asked.
"Not really," Scáthach said.
"We've spent some time watching TV," Medea said.
"Zealot had patiently waited for your return." Zealot said.
"What are you planning to do?" Scáthach asked.
"When I was in 1994, I attended a school called Hogwarts."
"Hogwarts? That's an unusual name." Medea commented.
"Indeed," Artoria said. "So, I may have told my students that I would meet them in the magical district today," Ichigo said. "Do you want to come?"
"Sure," Scáthach said.
"I might be able to get some ingredient for my potions," Medea said.
"Zealot will follow." Zealot replied.
"Alright then. We'll be using a Garganta."
"A what?" Medea asked. Scáthach looked curious as well. Ichigo quickly explained to the other servants on what a Garganta was. They all shifted into spirit form and followed behind Ichigo.
In an empty alleyway, a Garganta opened up as Ichigo, Artoria, Scáthach, Medea, and Zealot appeared out of it. Ichigo summoned two of his wizard robes.
"Put these on," Ichigo said as he handed one to Zealot and Scáthach.
"Zealot will remain in his holiness's shadow." Zealot said as she disappeared into his shadow. Scáthach shrugged as she put on the robe. Medea and Artoria summoned their cloak. Ichigo put his on and lead them into the Leaky Cauldron. The Leaky Cauldron looked nearly the same, despite nearly a decade and a half since the last time Ichigo and Artoria saw the pub. Ichigo and Artoria lead them out of the Leaky Cauldron to a small, walled courtyard with a dustbin. Ichigo pulled out Mysteria, in wand form, and tapped the brick wall. Slowly the brick wall unraveled itself to reveal a large archway.
"Welcome to Diagon Alley," Ichigo whispered. Scáthach, Medea, and Zealot looked around at the shops. Ichigo walked straight. Artoria gently pushed the distracted Scáthach and Medea. They quickly caught up with Ichigo. Ichigo entered Gringotts. Scáthach, Medea, and Zealot looked at the interesting building. Ichigo and his group waited in line for a few minutes.
"NEXT!" One of the goblin tellers yelled. Ichigo and his group walked to the goblin teller.
"₲: May your enemies fear your wrath. :₲" Ichigo greeted the goblin teller. The goblin teller was shocked to hear a human speak the Goblin Language.
" ₲: May your vault continue to flow with gold and good fortune. :₲" The goblin teller quickly replied. "What can Gringotts do you wizard?"
"I have a private meeting under the name Kaien and Artoria Shiba," Ichigo said. His eyes widen.
"Very well. Allow me to escort you and your guests to the meeting room." The goblin teller said. He closed his teller booth and lead them down a hallway. As they walked down, Ichigo shifted his face back to Kaien. They soon arrived at a room. There was a plaque on the door.
"Private meeting in progress." The goblin teller opened the door for them. Ichigo and his group walked in. The room was packed. They looked to see who opened the door.
"Kaien-sensei!" They shouted in shock and surprised. Ichigo could see that all his students are much older than before. Many of them looked much older and mature than before. Ichigo could see a few children there.
"How do you look the same as before you left?" Hermione asked. Ichigo smiled.
"Allow me to sit down and then I'll explain," Ichigo said. Ichigo and his group sat down.
"Now then, allow me to explain." Ichigo started. Artoria and I were sent back in time to 1994." Ichigo said.
"What? Time turners are only able to go back a few hours. How were you two able to go back that far?"
"Divine intervention," Artoria said.
"Harry's fate wasn't going the way it was intended to go so we were sent back in time to fix it," Ichigo said.
"I see…" Daphne said.
"I was already born before 1994 so I had to go under a pseudonym," Ichigo said.
"So what is your real name?" Harry asked.
"My name is Ichigo Kurosaki," Ichigo said as he went back to normal.
"Why does that name sound familiar?" Hermione thought.
"What about Artoria?" Fred asked. The adults turned to Artoria. Artoria chuckled.
"While my first name is indeed Artoria. My last name is something else." Artoria turned to them. "Are you sure you can handle the revelation that my last name brings."
"Are you saying you are related to Voldemort or one of us?" Fred joked. Angelina smacked him in the gut with her elbow. Artoria smiled.
"If I were related to any of you, it would most likely be Harry," Artoria said. Harry looked shocked. "Don't worry my last name isn't Potter."
"Then what is it that would shock us?" Fleur asked. Magic began to gently swirl around her. Ichigo could see the magic around them was getting excited.
"I am Artoria Pendragon, King of Knights and Once and Future King of Britannia." She declared.
"But…that can't be. You would be 2000 centuries old." Hermione said. Everyone questioned Artoria's claim.
"Outrageous it may be. But it is the truth." Someone said. The door opened up as King Ragnok entered the room. "When we first met, and she introduced herself with that name, we performed a blood test to confirm her identity."
"What about the others?" Daphne asked. Scáthach took her robe off.
"My name is Scáthach, Queen of the Land of Shadows." She said.
"Wait… the same Scáthach from the Ulster Cycle?" Hermione asked.
"The very same," Scáthach replied.
"To think we just met two heroes of legends." She said.
"But how are you still here?" Alicia asked.
"They're servants," Fleur said. Everyone turned to her. "The world is unfortunately much bigger than we think." Fleur started. "Wizards and witches are not the only humans with magic. There exist another group that calls themselves Magus. They are a much smaller group of magic users who uses magic in a completely different way." Fleur said.
"Indeed. The Magus created an object called the Holy Grail. An object that can grant any wish if it is fueled with enough magical energy. To fill the Holy Grail, seven servants of different classes are summoned to fight each other to the death. This event has happened a total of five times. In the end, I prevented them from fading away." Ichigo vaguely explained.
"So, what about you?" Harry asked looking at the last person.
"I am Medea, Witch of Colchis." She said as she lowered her hood. Everyone could see her elven ears. Hermione was the only one who recognized her name.
"Wait…weren't you a member of the Argonauts?" Hermione asked. Medea nodded her head.
"I was forced to be a member of the Argonauts," Medea asked.
"Huh? None of the books mentioned that you were forced to be a member of the Argonauts." Hermione said.
"That's because I was drugged by that stupid bimbo to like Jason." She growled.
"Long story short, Aphrodite mind-controlled Medea to like Jason, which caused her to betray her people and help Jason to obtain the Golden Fleece. When Jason betrayed her, she went crazy since no one knew why she betrayed everyone. So, she desired to live her life how she wants to and get revenge on the Greek Gods." Ichigo said.
"So, the Greek Gods are still around," Victor said.
"They are and so are many others," Luna said. "Such as the Shinto gods, the Aesir gods, the Olympians, and a lonely few Celtic ones."
"That reminds me I still need to talk with Ankou and Mórrígan." Ichigo thought.
"Ichigo, when you are done, I need to see you in my office," Ragnok said as he left.
"Let's continue this meeting at my house." Harry offered.
"Sure," Ichigo replied. Harry and everyone left Gringotts and used a Portkey to go to Potter Manor.
Ichigo and the servants started at the large manor. Upon entering the manor, Ichigo could hear Yugi and his voice in Japanese.
"I fuse my Buster Blader and my Dark Magician in my hand to Fusion Summon… DARK PALADIN!" Yugi yelled as dust blew up obscuring Ichigo's view of Yugi. Suddenly something parted the dust cloud as Dark Paladin stood there. "I activate Dark Paladin's effect," Yugi said. "He gains 500 times the number of Dragons on your side of the field and graveyard," Yugi said as Dark Paladin's attack points grew from 2900 to 7900 attack points. "Now then, Dark Paladin attack Ichigo's Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!" Yugi said.
"It seems my duel with Yugi is still a common knowledge then." Ichigo joked. The children turned to see Ichigo there.
"Its Ichigo Kurosaki!" The kids yelled. Ichigo heard Hermione smacked herself.
"That's why I remember that name," Hermione said. All the other students watched the recording.
Dark Paladin charged towards Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon. While Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon charged up its attack and fired it back at Dark Paladin. Upon contact, both attacks kicked up dust; obscuring the view. "I've won!" Yugi said.
"Yugi. Don't think so yet." Ichigo said. Yugi looked up to see Dark Paladin is blocking the attack of Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.
"What!?" Yugi said.
"I activate the effect of Honest," Ichigo said as he reveals a white angel looking monster card from his hand. "During either player's Damage Step, when a LIGHT monster I control battles: I can send this card from my hand to the Graveyard; that monster gains ATK equal to the ATK of the opponent's monster it is battling, until the end of this turn," Ichigo said.
"What!" Yugi said. As he now noticed that Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon attack points weren't 4500 but it was 12400."
"Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon finish this duel with White Obliteration Burst!" Ichigo shouted as Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon increase the strength of its attack and managed to destroy Dark Paladin.
"Wait," Fred said. "Didn't that look like Kisara?" Fleur, Victor, Harry, and Hermione looked at Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.
"You're right," Harry said.
"Kisara herself was the inspiration of those," Ichigo revealed.
"Wait…inspire?" Hermione questioned.
"Kisara. Valiona. Do you want to greet the kids?" Ichigo asked.
"Sure," Kisara said.
"Let's go first. Let's see if they forgot what you and Kisara taught them about dragons." Valiona said with a smirk. Ichigo's body began to glow black. As Valiona appeared in her dragon form. She let out a roar, scaring everyone. All the adults moved in front of the children, wands pointing at the dragon.
"That's Red-Eyes Black Dragon." One of the kids said. Ichigo and Artoria smirked.
"Wait…" Hermione said. Ichigo's body glowed white as Kisara appeared in her human form. Valiona quickly joined Kisara in her human form as well.
"It's the Maiden with the Eyes of Blue and the Maiden with the Eyes of Red." The kids shouted. Ichigo smiled.
"Kisara and Valiona were the inspiration of the decks," Ichigo said. He summoned two of his decks and gave it to Kisara and Valiona.
"While the adults talk, let's entertain you, boys and girls, with some duels," Kisara said.
"Yay!" The kids cheered as they ran upstairs. Ichigo turned to the shocked adults.
"While my dragons entertain the children, for the time being, let's catch up," Ichigo said.
"Sure," Harry said. Everyone sat in the living room and began to share their stories with Ichigo.
After Victor graduated from Durmstrang, Victor transferred himself from the Bulgarian Quidditch Team to the Irish Quidditch Team as a part of a deal. In return for his transfer, he gained temporary British Citizenship, the right to live in Britain, and allowed to complete his Mastery in Britain. Victor used this opportunity to continue his relationship with Luna. At Luna's graduation ceremony, Victor proposed to her on stage, which Luna happily said yes. They soon had three children: the eldest daughter was named Pandora, the middle son was named Kaien, and the last one was named Selene. Luna continued to write for the Quibbler which evolved from a joke magazine to a real newspaper.
Fred and George also continued their relationship with Angelina and Alicia for their final year at Hogwarts. They proposed to their respective girlfriend at the graduation ceremony. Angelina and Alicia pranked them by pretending to turn them down. After graduation, they used the capital Ichigo gave them to start their own joke shop, Weasley Wizard Wheezes. Fred and George ran their shop while Angelina and Alicia joined Professional Quidditch for a few years. Angelina retired from Professional Quidditch and helped at the joke shop. When Alicia retired, she replaced Madam Hooch as the Quidditch instructor. Fred and Angelina had a girl named Roxanne. George and Alicia had a pair of twins boys names Gideon Jr. and Fabian Jr. in honor of their uncles.
Harry, Hermione, and Daphne continued their relationship. They used their relationship to bridge the rivalry between Gryffindor and Slytherins. All three of them were made prefects of their respective houses. They soon graduated from Hogwarts. Hermione returned to the nonmagical world for a few years, getting her master's degrees in both History and Music. She returned to Hogwarts and replaced Professor Burbage for Muggle Studies. She changed the name to Nonmagical Studies. While Daphne became a Potion Mistress, beating Professor Snape's title as youngest Potion Master. She soon joined Hermione at Hogwarts, teaching Potions. She also started to teach about Pureblood culture. Soon Pureblood Studies became a class. Daphne and Hermione forced the two classes to become mandatory classes to take depending on the student's background. Harry was forced into the Wizengamot where he removed the bias laws, create laws to help magical creatures, and forced the Wizarding World to evolve further. Harry had two children with Hermione: the eldest daughter being Lily Luna and the younger son being James Sirius. He also had two children with Daphne: the eldest son being Corvus and a younger son named Leo.
It was soon Fleur's turn. She let out a sigh as she began her story.
"After I graduated from Beauxbatons, I had a large argument with my family. My parents didn't want me to go and explore the world. But I went anyway." Fleur started. "I traveled all over the world, learning all kinds of magical and nonmagical arts. I learned the way of the rapier, the sword, savate, karate, capoeira, and so much more. During my travels, I encountered a group of vampires attacking a village. So, armed with my sword and wand, I charged in to deal with the vampires. In my fight, I encountered a woman named Bazett Fraga McRemitz." Fleur said. "She was a magus. She explained to me about the Magus. I joined her for a short time. We returned to Britain when she received a call from someone named Kotomine. She gave me a quick explanation about the Holy Grail War and soon left." Fleur said.
She turned to Artoria. "Despite knowing who you are, I wish to challenge you," Fleur said. Artoria sighed.
"Very well," Artoria said as she stood up. Everyone looked at Ichigo with confusion.
"Long story short, Fleur had feelings for me. I didn't know if those feelings would still be there now. So, we challenged her to become the strongest she could be and then challenge Artoria to a duel. If she wins then I acknowledge her feelings for me, and we begin to date." Ichigo explained. Harry led them outside to an empty courtyard. Both duelists stood ten meters from each other. Harry stood in between the duelist.
"What rules will be used in this duel?" Harry asked.
"No spells categorized as Dark Magic from the International Confederation of Wizards," Fleur said.
"Fine," Artoria said.
"Very well then," Harry said as the dueling wards were cast around them. "Duelists, are you ready?" Harry asked. Artoria nodded her head as she summoned her wand. Fleur nodded her head as she threw a silver cylindrical case to the side.
Fleur and Artoria nodded as they drew their wands.
"Begin!" Harry shouted.
"Globus Igneus [Fireball]." Fleur silently cast; sending multiple fireballs at Artoria.
"Ventus Forum [Wind Strike]." Artoria silently cast; swiping her wand down like a sword. Compressed air shot out of Artoria's wand and collided with Fleur's fireballs; causing an explosion. The ground below Artoria began to rumble. Artoria jumped away from her spot, dodging the sudden appearance of stalagmite. The dust settled to see Fleur was the one who cast the spell.
"Hastam Terrae [Earth Spear]." Fleur cast. The ground began to shake. Artoria jumped in the air as more stalagmite shot up from the ground. Artoria stood in the air as the entire ground around her was covered in stalagmites. "Depulso." Fleur cast. All the stalagmites were dislodged from the ground and flew towards Artoria.
"Ventus Forum [Wind Strike]." Artoria silently cast; swiping her wand down. The compressed air shot out of Artoria's wand and barely made a scratch against the flying stalagmites. Artoria smiled. As she swapped her wand for Excalibur. Her sword easily slashed the stalagmites. The rubble began to fall towards the ground. Fleur pointed at the fallen rubble.
"Saxa animalibus [Rocks to Animals]." Fleur silently cast. The stone rubble transformed into stone hawks. With a click of her wand, the flock of stone hawks flew towards Artoria. She smirked as she began to slash them with her sword. "What can I do?" Fleur thought as she used the stone hawks to distract Artoria. "This is going to be a little reckless, but I got to give it a shot." Fleur thought. She began to wave her wand around her forehead. The crushed rocks and stone dust began to flow around her.
"Tempestas Harenae. [Sandstorm]." Fleur cast. All the crushed rocks transformed into the sand and mixed with the stone dust. The remaining stone hawks flew into the sandstorm. Artoria growled as the sandstorm got into her eyes. She used her left hand to cover her eyes. "Absconditos harenarum [Hidden Sand]." Fleur silently cast, safely hidden in the sand. Artoria closed her eyes and grabbed Excalibur with both hands. Magical energy began to gather in the sword.
"Can't let that happen." Fleur thought from her hiding spot. She looked at the stone hawks near the top of the sandstorm. "Attack her," Fleur ordered her remaining stone hawks. The stone hawks dived towards Artoria and began to attack her. Artoria growled as she ignored the stone hawks as more energy gathered in the sword. "She's ignoring my attacks." Fleur thought. Suddenly she realized Artoria's plan. "If she released at much energy, she could easily destroy my sandstorm. Looks like Artoria gets what she wants…but not in the way she thinks." White long scaly wings burst from her shoulders. With a few flaps, Fleur was in the air. She soared towards Artoria. She attacked her with a combination of punches and kicks. Artoria was forced to let go of Excalibur and began to fight with Fleur. The sandstorm slowly dissipated, revealing two tired women. Both of them had bruises on their face.
"I think it's time for one final attack," Fleur said.
"Agreed," Artoria said as she stuck out her hand. Excalibur shot out of the ground and back to her hand. Magical energy quickly gathered in her sword.
"Accio Fragarach." Fleur silently cast. A lead ball shot out of the silver canister and floated in above Fleur's right fist. Magical energy began to gather around the lead ball.
"Answerer," Fleur whispered. The lead ball began to glow and transform. A metallic ring with inscribed runes appeared. A spear tip grew out of the lead ball and through the metallic ring.
"Artoria!" Scáthach yelled through the peerage link.
"Yes?" She replied as she continued to gather energy.
"Make sure Avalon is active," Scáthach warned.
"Very well," Artoria replied.
"I enter the Everdistant Utopia. The tranquil domain of the fairies that keeps out all filth from the outside world and allows nothing to harm the tranquil King…Avalon!" Artoria mentally chanted. Avalon, the scabbard, dissipates into countless tiny particles in the air around her. Fleur didn't notice this.
"Excalibur!" Artoria yelled as she swung down with her sword; sending the black and red energy towards Fleur.
"Fragarach!" Fleur yelled as she punched with her right fist. A violet beam of light shot out of the spear tip towards Artoria's chest. Fleur was shocked when the purple light was blocked by something. Artoria's attack barely missed Fleur as it easily destroyed the dueling barrier. Artoria redirected the attack to the sky. The wards above Potter Manor glowed black as it absorbed the excess energy from her attack. The lead ball fell to the ground with a loud thump. Fleur collapsed from magical exhaustion. Artoria glanced at Scáthach.
"You recognized her attack?" Artoria asked.
"I did," Scáthach said. "That was Noble Phantasm is known as Fragarach. It is a very reckless and dangerous ability. Fragarach can only activate when your opponent starts to use their strongest move. Fragarach will reverse time and pierce a hole in the opponent's heart BEFORE they could use their move." Scáthach explained.
"I see…" Artoria replied.
"Let's get her inside," Ichigo said as he lifted Fleur off the ground in a princess carry.
"Let me take you to her room," Harry said he led them to Fleur's bedroom in Potter Manor. Ichigo lowered her down and began to cast various medical diagnostic spells on her.
"How is she?" Artoria asked.
"Physically her body is fine, but her magic is mostly depleted," Ichigo said.
"Usually a good night rest should take care of magical exhaustion," Hermione said. The others nodded and began to leave the room.
"I'll keep an eye on her," Ichigo said. Artoria glanced at him.
"You're going to talk with her," Artoria said.
"I do," Ichigo replied. Artoria sighed.
"I'll keep them distracted as much as I can," Artoria said as she closed the door behind her. Ichigo cast a privacy bubble around them.
"You can stop pretending," Ichigo said. Fleur opened her eyes and looked at him.
"How did you know I was pretending?" Fleur asked.
"I was the one who performed the medical diagnostic on you," Ichigo said.
"But my spells should fool those diagnostic spells." Fleur countered.
"Did you expect me to just use western medial spells?" Ichigo countered.
"Forgot about those," Fleur replied.
"Getting back on track here…" Ichigo said.
"I guess I lost my chance to be with you." Fleur sighed. Ichigo sighed as he sat down on the bed, beside her.
"It's my fault," Ichigo said. Fleur opened her mouth to argue but Ichigo continued. "It was my fault for not being clear with you. We challenged you and hoped you wouldn't accept it…" Ichigo glanced at Fleur. "But you did. I could tell you're much stronger than before…and it's because of us that you had to suffer for so long." Ichigo said. Fleur laid there in silence. "Fleur. I will be blunt with you if you wish to peruse this relationship…then be prepared to not be the only one in the relationship. You've seen Artoria and Scáthach. " Ichigo stood up from the bed. "Stay here and rest. Decide what you wish to do now." Ichigo left the room.
He walked down to see everyone was having lunch. Ichigo recognized one of the house-elves that was serving dinner.
"It's been a long time Kreacher," Ichigo said. Kreacher turned to Ichigo.
"Stranger knows Kreacher but Kreacher doesn't know Stranger." Kreacher replied.
"You met Kreacher?" Harry asked, noticing them talking.
"He does. He met me as Kaien Shiba." Kreacher's eyes widen.
"What did Kreacher call Kaien Shiba before Kreacher left the room?" Kreacher questioned.
"Kreacher!" Harry yelled. Ichigo stopped Harry.
"We didn't meet in a room. We met in a cave and Kreacher called me Master's Savior." Ichigo replied. Kreacher fell on his knees and bowed to Ichigo.
"Kreacher is sorry. Kreacher needed to be sure person was indeed Master's Savior." Kreacher replied.
"Um…what?" Harry looked confused.
"I would like to know what Kreacher meant as well." They turned to see Sirius Black just arrived.
"Sirius," Harry said as he hugged his Godfather. Sirius replied with a hug.
"So, you're Kaien Shiba…right?" Sirius asked.
"That was the identity I had to prevent a paradox," Ichigo said.
"I see…" Sirius said. "What did you do to earn that name from Kreacher?"
"It's about someone named Regulus Arcturus Black," Ichigo said. Harry remembered seeing that name in the Black Family Tree.
"Reg?" Sirius whispered.
"Yes," Ichigo said. "He's your brother?" Ichigo guessed.
"He is," Sirius said. "But he became a Death Eater… I heard he died at some point, but I never learned how or why."
"Do you wish to see," Ichigo said. Sirius turned to him. "Do you wish to see Regulus's final moments?"
"I…do. I do." Sirius said.
"So do I," Harry said.
"Very well," Ichigo said. "Let's move to a more private setting," Ichigo said.
"Let's go to my office," Harry said. Sirius and Ichigo followed behind Harry. They soon arrived at a door without a doorknob. Harry pressed his ring into the door. The door opened by itself. Harry entered his office, followed by Ichigo and Sirius. Harry closed the door behind them.
"Before I do show you two, I need an oath from you," Ichigo said as he pulled out a sheet of paper and wrote the words down. He handed the sheet to Harry and Sirius.
"I, Sirius Orion Black, swear on my life, magic, and my soul that all information Ichigo Kurosaki reveal to me will not be spoken to, written to, mentioned in any shape or form to anyone else without the permission of Ichigo Kurosaki. So mote it be." Sirius said. Sirius glowed golden for a few moments as his magic enforced the oath.
"I, Harry James Potter, Lord of House Potter and House Black, swear on my life, magic, and my soul that all information Ichigo Kurosaki reveal to me will not be spoken to, written to, mentioned in any shape or form to anyone else without the permission of Ichigo Kurosaki. So mote it be." Harry said. He glowed golden for a few moments as his magic enforced the oath.
"I, Ichigo Kurosaki, swear on my life, magic, and my soul that the memory I will show to Sirius Orion Black and Harry James Potter is genuine and isn't altered in any shape or form," Ichigo said. Ichigo could feel his magic flowed around him, enforcing the oath. Ichigo turned to them.
"I want both of you to perform Legilimency on me. I will create a path for you to follow." Ichigo instructed. "Do not stray from the path," Ichigo warned. Harry and Sirius nodded. They pointed their wands at Ichigo.
"Legilmens." Harry and Sirius said as they entered Ichigo's mind. Ichigo guided them to the memory in the cave. They watched Ichigo enter the cave and moved to the cave. They watched Ichigo retrieve the fake locket. They watched in horror as Ichigo triggered the inferi only to be in shock as to how easily he destroyed them. They saw the look of joy from the souls as the inferi were destroyed. They soon saw Regulus's ghost. Sirius began to cry as he realized what Regulus did. They saw Ichigo remove the soul fragment from the locket and finally performing Konsō on Regulus. They were soon pushed out of Ichigo's mind.
Sirius fell into one of the nearby couches.
"I need something to drink," Sirius said Harry pulled out a bottle of firewhiskey and three glasses. He poured three fingers of the whiskey in each glass and was passed to Sirius and Ichigo.
"To Regulus, for helping defeat Voldemort," Sirius said as they all slam down the whiskey. Harry and Sirius let out a small stream of fire. Sirius turned to Ichigo.
"Thank you for showing us that," Sirius said.
"No problem," Ichigo said.
"The House of Black owes you a debt of gratitude," Sirius said.
"You don't need to."
"I agree with Sirius," Harry said. "Your action freed Regulus's soul from eternal torture and showed that Regulus Black died a hero." Ichigo sighed.
"Very well. What do you propose?" Harry asked.
"An alliance," Harry said.
"I, Harry James Potter, Lord of House Potter and House Black, herby acknowledge a debt of gratitude to Ichigo Kurosaki. To pay for that debt, the Ancient and Most Noble House of Potter and Ancient and Most Noble House of Black offers you an alliance as allies. Cry for aid and I shall hear you and give aid if it costs me my last breath. Seek succor and you shall have it of me, no matter your reasons for seeking such. Request sanctuary, and it shall be granted, regardless of your foe." Harry said as he extended his hand for a handshake. Two streams of magic wrapped around Harry's hand.
"I, Ichigo Kurosaki, Heir of Clan Kurosaki, Heir of Clan Shiba, Heir of Clan Yamamoto, herby acknowledge the debt of gratitude and accepts the alliance with the Ancient and Most Noble House of Potter and Ancient and Most Noble House of Black. Cry for aid and I shall hear you and give aid if it costs me my last breath. Seek succor and you shall have it of me, no matter your reasons for seeking such. If all the universe be arrayed against you, know that I shalt guard your back. Request sanctuary, and it shall be granted, regardless of your foe." Ichigo said as he extended his hand. Three strands of magic wrapped around his arm. Soon the two shook hands. The streams of magic intertwine with each other, sealing the alliance with magic. The magic dissipated as they let go of their hands.
"Let's go down for dinner before everyone questions us," Ichigo suggested. Harry and Sirius nodded their heads. They all went back downstairs and joined the rest of them for dinner. During dinner, Harry offered Ichigo and his servants a room for the rest of their time in Britain. At first, Ichigo tried to politely turn him down. Harry countered by mentioning the alliance between their houses. Ichigo sighed as he accepted Harry's offer.
After dinner, Harry gave each of them a necklace with House Potter's and House Black's Coat of Arms on it.
"This is a portkey that will take you either to Potter Manor or Black Manor," Harry said. "To activate it, just say 'To the Pottery' for the Potter Manor or say 'To the Doghouse' for the Black Manor," Harry said.
"Thank you," Ichigo said as everyone took a portkey. "Kreacher will take all of you to your rooms," Harry said.
"We will all sleep together," Artoria said.
"Very well then," Harry said as he turned to Kreacher. "Take them to one of the larger guestrooms."
"Yes, Master." Kreacher said. He took them to their guestroom. The guestroom was a large room. In the middle of the room, there was has a large four-poster mahogany wooden bed, big enough to easily fit them all in, with light golden red curtains. All of their belongings from Hotel 41 was already placed on one of the nearby dressers. They explored the room and quickly discovered the luxurious bathroom with an enormous bathtub with many different buttons. They spent an hour enjoying the bathtub and all its various buttons. During that time, a tired Kisara and Valiona entered the bath. After that experience, they all went to bed. Ichigo took his spot in the middle. Scáthach and Medea took his sides. Artoria and Zealot settled on Ichigo's lower leg area. Kisara and Valiona were behind Scáthach and Medea.
Time Skip: Next Morning
Ichigo woke up to hear a small tapping sound. He turned his head to see a black raven was tapping his window with its beak. Before Ichigo could respond, a shadow tentacle rose and open the window. The black raven flew in toward Ichigo. Ichigo noticed that the raven had a letter tied on its leg. The tentacle tried to stop the black raven from reaching Ichigo. The black raven dodged the tentacle. More shadow tentacles rose up; ready to stop the raven.
"Zealot stop," Ichigo ordered. The shadow tentacles froze. The black raven landed on a shadow tentacle; staring at Ichigo. It raised its leg to Ichigo. Ichigo stared back at the raven.
"It will get a letter for me," Ichigo whispered. The raven nodded its head as it one of the shadow tentacles moved to the raven. The shadow tentacles grew small finger-like appendage and untied the letter from the raven's leg. The black raven soon flew out of the window. The shadow tentacles closed the window and placed the letter on the table.
"Are you going to read the letter?" A sleepy Medea asked. Ichigo looked to see everyone woke up.
"Fine," Ichigo said. Scáthach and Medea let go of his arms. The shadow tentacles brought the letter to him. Ichigo grabbed the letter. Ichigo noticed on the back of the letter was sealed with wax. The emblem consisted of the letter WB. Bisecting the letters was a small bar with the words Wing Bind. Centered above the letters was a small crown. Ichigo broke the seal and opened the letter.
"Dear Ichigo. This is Mórrígan. Amaterasu told me that you have returned to the appropriate time. Ankou and I are ready to meet with you. Please go to any red phone booth in London. When you go inside, pick up the phone and use the coin that is attached to this letter to make a call. When you hear the call connect say 'Ichigo Kurosaki, clocking into work.' Please come alone, if possible. If you need any help looking for us, refer us as Mister Skull and Miss Raven. "
Below the letter was a silver coin that was about the same size as a 100-yen coin (or a dollar coin). Imprinted on the coin was the same emblem on the wax seal. Ichigo pulled the coin off the letter.
"So when are you planning to meet with them?" Medea asked.
"Probably soon. Maybe after breakfast." Ichigo said.
"You want to see Fleur's answer," Artoria said.
"I do. Because we'll likely return to Japan for a short time before going to America." Ichigo said.
"Finally," Medea shouted. They all got out of bed and began to get ready for the morning. They all walked downstairs to see everyone except for Fleur downstairs eating breakfast.
"Where's Fleur?" Ichigo asked.
"She requested to have breakfast in her room," Harry said.
"I see…" Ichigo replied. Kreacher brought them both a plate of food. Artoria's plate was three times bigger than everyone else. Ichigo chuckled as Artoria devoured all the food in front of her. All the children were shocked to see someone eat that much food. Artoria blushed when she noticed all the stares. Soon breakfast finished. The kids grabbed Kisara and Valiona and drag them away; likely wanting rematch duels. Ichigo stood up.
"I'm planning to go to London to see Ragnok," Ichigo said. They nodded their heads as Ichigo walked over to the fireplace and left to Gringotts.
Scene Change: Ragnok's Office
Ichigo quickly exited the Leaky Cauldron and went to Gringotts. As soon as he stepped in the Gringotts, he was immediately escorted to Ragnok's Office.
"Hello, Ichigo Kurosaki." Ragnok greeted.
"Hello, Ragnok," Ichigo replied.
"The good news is that the business information you provided to us was true to the dot," Ragnok said as he pulled out a large folder. Ichigo took the folder and looked at his portfolio. All the stocks he invested in are making a lot of dividends and he had large control of many companies as of right now. "Right now, that portfolio is worth billions in pounds and yen," Ragnok said.
"I see…" Ichigo said.
"The bad news is that we at Gringotts don't wish for you to close your account," Ragnok admitted.
"Hm… in the nonmagical world, they have debit and credit cards where I can use my money without coming back to the bank." Ichigo started. Ragnok began to smile.
"Gringotts has connections with many nonmagical banks all over the world." Ragnok pulled out a small card and handed it to Ichigo. Ichigo could see it was a credit card. It was black made of metal with leather detailing. He could see his name on the bottom left-hand corner with an account number. On the top left side was a large capital G. "This is our Black Gold Debit Card." Ragnok began. "This card allows all of our customers to use their fortune without needing to go withdrawing their galleons or converting it to nonmagical money."
"Thank you," Ichigo said as he took the card and placed it in his wallet. "Anything else?"
"There is one thing left," Ragnok said as he stood from his deck. "For your actions to help the Goblin Nation as a whole, the Goblin Nation owes you a great debt," Ragnok said.
"Not again." Ichigo thought.
"For your action, we grant you this item." Ragnok pulled out a small dagger. It was silver with red and black gemstones. "This dagger is made with Goblin Silver. It can absorb any material or solution to make it stronger. It is decorated in rubies and onyx. This dagger is a symbol of your status as a Friend to the Goblin Nation. If you need anything go to any of our Gringotts branches in Europe and you will find immediate service."
"Thank you for this gift," Ichigo said as he carefully took the dagger.
"₲: May the beings of old bless you and your nation with great prosperity for the future to come. :₲" Ichigo said as he extended his hand.
"₲: May you and your family also be blessed by the beings of old with great health and prosperity. :₲" King Ragnok replied as he shook Ichigo's hand. Ichigo went down to his vault, where all the contents from the Lestrange Vault were transferred to. Ichigo was surprised when he founded a pensive in there. He sent all the books into his mindscape where Kyōka, Hōgyoku, and Mysteria. After that, he went back up.
Scene Change: London
Ichigo left Diagon Alley. He soon spotted a red phonebooth with the word telephone above the clear plastic panel. He entered the phone booth and slipped the coin in. Ichigo could feel a small wave of magic resonated around the red phonebooth. Ichigo could hear the phone connect.
"Ichigo Kurosaki, clocking into work," Ichigo said. Above Ichigo, the sign on the phonebooth that read the telephone changed to WB. Suddenly the phonebooth shot downwards. Ichigo put the phone away as he waited. Ichigo could sense a change of the dimension, similar to entering Soul Society, so Ichigo changed into his Shinigami form. The phonebooth stopped and the door opened. Ichigo walked out to see a stone archway. The top of the archway was broken, showing the letters WB in a part of a shield. Ichigo could see a large TV display above the broken archway, showing advisement for a drink. Below the archway was two girls arguing.
The first girl is tall and slim with waist-length black hair, long bangs, and a small, white, horn-like extension on her left temple. She had brown dress shoes. The second girl has green-eyed with blond hair that she keeps tied up in two long pigtails with red, spiked metal bands. She wore black boots with gemstones on the ankles
They were both wearing similar uniforms consisting of a green suit over a white undershirt with a thick red bow tie fastening a short, red-and-black plaid cape to their necks; a short green skirt with a holster for their gun on their right thigh and knee-length black leggings.
"Um…excuse me?" Ichigo said. The girls turned to Ichigo.
"Who are you?" The girl with blonde hair asked. Her hand was hovering near her gun.
"My name is Ichigo Kurosaki." Ichigo introduced.
"Noel Niihashi." The girl with the black hair said.
"Noel, why did you introduce yourself?" The girl with the blonde hair asked.
"Ninii-san. If you paid attention to your lessons, he is dressed in the uniform of the East Branch." The newly named Ninii blushed and let out a nervous laugh. Noel turned to Ichigo. "So Soul Reaper from the East Branch, what can I do for you?"
"I am looking for Mister Skull and Miss Raven," Ichigo said. Noel's eyes widen.
"You're looking for the President and Vice President…" Noel pointed to the building in front of them. "They're office is on the top floor of the building."
"Thank you," Ichigo said as he walked to the building. Ichigo noticed the two girls were following behind him.
"We're not following you or anything," Ninii said. Ichigo shrugged his shoulders as he entered the building. Ichigo got on the escalator and began to travel up. Ichigo ignored the stares from everyone around him. A few minutes later, Ichigo arrived at the highest floor of the building. Ichigo walked over to the front desk. He could see a secretary, causally painting her nails.
"Welcome to Wing Bind. What can I do for you?" She asked as she continued to paint her nails.
"I wish to see Mister Skull and Miss Raven," Ichigo said.
"Do you have an appointment?" She asked.
"I believe so," Ichigo replied.
"There is no 'believe' so." The secretary said. She opened a notebook. "I can put you in for an appointment five years from now."
"Can you see if my name is on the list of appointments?" Ichigo asked.
"Mister Skull and Miss Raven have cleared all of their appointments today for a powerful VIP." The secretary glanced at Ichigo. "Based on what I could sense, you are not that VIP." Ichigo glared at the secretary.
"Let's see about that." Ichigo thought as he began to lower his reiatsu, allowing those to feel it. Suddenly the entire building began to shake. Alarms began to go off. The secretary was slammed onto the floor from the sudden pressure. The nearby office doors slammed open as Mórrígan and Ankou rushed out. Mórrígan had a large Celtic sword in her hand. While Ankou had his signature scythe in his hand. They looked around and noticed Ichigo glaring at their secretary.
"Ichigo!" Mórrígan called out. Ichigo waved at them and let go of his reiatsu, allowing it to ascend back to normal. Mórrígan and Ankou shook their heads at the secretary.
"Let's get this meeting started," Ichigo said.
"Agreed," Ankou said. They all entered the office. The office appeared normal with the usual office furniture. Ichigo, Mórrígan, and Ankou sat down at a small coffee table.
"Sorry about our secretary. She will be appropriately punished for her actions." Mórrígan said.
"Ok," Ichigo said. "What should we start this meeting off with?" Ichigo asked.
"I think I start this off with rewarding you for freeing Ankou," Mórrígan said. Ichigo nodded his head. "I am primarily a Goddess of Fate and War." Mórrígan began. "After careful consideration, I shall give you my blessing." Ichigo summoned a schrift in front of him.
"Please channel your blessing to this," Ichigo said. Mórrígan took the schrift and began to perform her blessing. The white schrift turned crimson before she handed it back to him.
"I, Ichigo Kurosaki, bestow this schrift upon myself," Ichigo said as he absorbed the schrift. Ichigo could feel Schrift S: The Slayer merge with the new Schrift. Ichigo could also feel a rush of bloodlust flow through him.
"Fight! FIGHT!" Zangetsu yelled from the mindscape. His instincts fueled by the sudden need for violence and bloodshed. Slowly Ichigo calmed himself down.
"Good. You didn't get overwhelmed by the bloodlust." Mórrígan commented. "The blessing that you received from me grants you a few abilities. The first is that upon grabbing any object, intending to use it as a weapon, you gain insight on how to quickly and effectively use it. This ability requires you to practice the weapon more to gain mastery of it thought." Mórrígan warned. Ichigo picked up a pen and held it like a knife. Suddenly different techniques appeared in his mind. Ichigo changed his grip, holding it like a normal pen. Those different techniques vanished from his mind. "This also grants you an understanding of strategy and tactics. You can see what your opponents are doing, and you can predict what strategies they are using and figure out different countermeasures against them." Ichigo nodded his head, understanding how powerful this ability is. "The other ability happens when in combat with allies. You can temporarily grant your allies an increase in overall power, but it may turn them into berserkers that will only listen to your commands." Ichigo nodded his head.
"I name this schrift, W: The Warlord." Ichigo declared. Mórrígan nodded her head.
"What's the next topic to discuss?" Ankou asked.
"I'll go next," Ichigo said. "What is Wing Bind?"
"Ah…I allow me to explain." Ankou said. "When I was freed from Mórrígan's trap. I looked to see what was happening to the spirits. The nonmagical ghosts would be forced to return to the cycle of reincarnation due to lack of magical energy which sustained their existence. Magical ghosts who can harness the residual magical energy in the environment to fuel its existence doesn't have this problem. The ghosts discovered that they could devour other ghosts to sustain themselves."
"Similar to Hollows." Ichigo thought.
"Over time that soul would grow bigger, lose their human form, and requires more magical energy to sustain itself. We discovered that these larger souls produce resources that we could safely harvest without harming the soul. With that decision, we started to take care of these larger souls instead of killing them." Ankou continued. "We soon reach a problem. Mórrígan and I aren't capable of dealing with all that work." Ankou looked at the office door. "In the end, we decided to recruit humans who could see souls."
"Which also happened to be many wizards or witches that couldn't live in Magical Britain. We help them integrate back to nonmagical life. In exchange, they work for us." Mórrígan said. "The first generation of workers that we recruited still called themselves Witches and Wizards. Upon seeing these larger souls, they called them dragons due to them appearing similar to dragons. Soon those names stuck."
"I see…" Ichigo said, understanding what Wing Bind is. "One of the girls said that I worked at the East Branch. Are you allies with the Gotei 14?
"The Gotei 14? I thought you were 13." Mórrígan asked.
"The name changed after a new division was created," Ichigo explained.
"No," Ankou said. "But the naming is connected to them. We decided to call us Soul Society West Branch since it is literally what this is; a society for the souls." Ankou said.
"So, does Wing Bind wish to ally with the Gotei 14," Ichigo asked.
"We do," Mórrígan said. "We are a newer organization and would happily ally ourselves with one of the oldest Soul Societies out there."
"Here is my Head of International Relationship name," Ichigo said as he wrote Ukitake's name down. "Please mention that you talked with me about the idea and that I did not indicate a choice in the matter." Ichigo requested.
"Sure…" Mórrígan said.
"Now that Mórrígan paid her debt to you, allow me to pay my debt in helping me," Ankou said.
"You could grant me your Blessing for the Death Quest," Ichigo said.
"Oh? You're working on that?" Ankou said in disbelief.
"I am. I already got two Blessings with another one on the way."
"Impressive. Who's still around?"
"Odin and Hades are still around. Osiris gave me it's Blessing before fading away." Ichigo said.
"I see. With me, you will have four." Ankou concluded.
"Indeed."
"I, Ankou, the remaining Celtic Agent for Death, give Ichigo Kurosaki my blessing for the Death Quest." Ichigo could feel Ankou's magic flowing around him. Ichigo allowed the magic to enter him.
"Thank you," Ichigo said.
"No…thank you." Ankou and Mórrígan said.
Scene Change: Potter Manor
Ichigo returned to Potter Manor the manor was mostly empty. Artoria, Scáthach, Medea, and Zealot were relaxing in their room.
"Hello, Master's Savior. What can Kreacher do for you?" Kreacher asked as he appeared next to Ichigo.
"First off, call me Ichigo." Ichigo requested.
"Kreacher will try that…Ichigo." Ichigo nodded his head. "What can Kreacher do for you?"
"Is Fleur still here?" Kreacher nodded his head.
"She is in her room right now."
"Thank you," Ichigo said.
He walked over to her room and knocked on the door. No one responded.
"Fleur, this is Ichigo," Ichigo said as he knocked on the door again. The door slightly opened as Fleur peaked out. Upon seeing Ichigo standing there, she opened the door for him. Ichigo entered the room. She quickly closed it behind him.
"You're here for my answer?" She asked.
"That and I'm just checking up on you," Ichigo replied.
"You coming here and checking up on me isn't making this decision any easier." She said.
"I know," Ichigo replied with a smile. Suddenly there was a small chiming like a small bell was ringing.
"Oh." Fleur walked over to her bag and pulled out a small box. It had a bell attached to the side, which was ringing.
"What's that?" Ichigo asked.
"When I was with Bazett she added me as a Freelancer Sealing Designation Enforcer," Fleur said
"What's a Sealing Designation?"
"Sealing Designation is special orders to 'maintain and protect' special thaumaturgical abilities which cannot be acquired through study," Fleur explained. "To the majority of Magus, this is a death sentence."
"I see…" Ichigo said.
"These Sealing Designation also has a high bounty which causes regulars Enforcers and freelancers Enforcers to essentially fight it out for the unfortunate Magus," Fleur explained as she opened her box. She pulled out a small stack of papers. "Wow. This unfortunate Magus has five different sealing designation."
"Is that unheard of?" Ichigo asked.
"It is. Sealing Designations aren't something that the Carillon Observatory usually issue and when they do its one ability. With five Sealing Designations, each of these means that this Magus has five different unique abilities that Carillon Observatory agreed upon wants their efforts to capture and preserve." Fleur explained the significance. She began to read the Sealing Designation. Her eyes widen as she flipped through all of the Sealing Designations.
"What happened?" Ichigo asked.
"These Sealing Designations are for you," Fleur said.
Quick surprise disclaimer now.
Burn the Witch is owned by Tite Kubo, Studio Colorido, and other people.
Fate/Stay Night is the property of Konoki Nasu, Type-Moon, Aniplex, and other people.
Anyways I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I am crazy enough to squeeze Burn the Witch into this story. Hopefully more stuff on Burn the Witch comes out.
Now this chapter iron out some rules on time travel.
As for the lack of Madam Umbridge or the Ministry of Magic or anything from Book 5… think about it. Minister Fudge sent Madam Umbridge to Hogwarts to keep an eye on Professor Dumbledore and Harry because they are 'spreading panic to the public'. Since all the Death Eaters and many of their secret allies, who are also part of the conservative faction of the Wizengamot, are dead the remaining conservatives are the minority and scared of what killed all of them. They want to keep a low profile, allowing the liberal faction and the neutral fraction of the Wizengamot to rule. With Harry being Lord Potter, Lord Black, and the Boy Who Lives, he was able to unite the fractions together. Hermione represents the liberal faction, Daphne represents the conservative, and Harry represents the neutral fraction. Which allowed both sides to cooperate.
As you can tell, Fleur is much older, experienced, and stronger than before. This Fleur has seen the truth of the world, both literally and figuratively.
I hope I explained how the Burn the Witch works with the shenanigans of the HP universe, the Natsuverse (Fate Universe), and the Celtic God and Goddesses.
With all of this done... see you next chapter.
