AN: So a little twist will be added to this story. You have to wait to find out.
Ch 42 A Familiar Presence
Ginny felt awful, she felt like she got thrown around in a bag by a dragon. She heard a voice, a voice that sets her off. "I just hope there's no curse when she fused with Prelati's monster." The voice sighs, placing a towel on her head.
The red-haired girl looks to the side, carefully making sure not to open them too much. On the top of the bedstand was her wand, resting on the top. She looks at Mashu, doing something on the side. Just right when she was about to replace the towel, she jolted up pushing the violet-haired woman on the ground.
"Ginny-san!" Mashu gasps, watching her grabbing her wand.
Ginny stares down at Mashu on the floor, where she belongs. "Get up. NOW YOU TRAMP!" She demanded of this bitchy tramp.
Mashu got up from the ground, hands up where she can see them. "Ginny-san, you're still weak from what Caster did to you-"
"SHUT UP! THAT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!" Ginny exclaims, her eyes widen with insanity. "NOW…NOW I GOT THE CHANCE TO KILL YOU!"
"Ginny-san, what has gotten a hold on you!" Mashu asked, seeing the insanity in her eyes.
Ginny breathes out heavily, all she could think of is getting together with Harry. No matter the cost. "Shut up, hahahahaha! Ya know I got why Harry would get together with you?" she points her wand at the violet-haired girl. "You're not Harry's taste, you're chest isn't even big, unlike mine. You're just after for his fame and fortune! Once I got rid of you, I'll come for your bastard son next!"
The former Demi-Servant's eyes widen, this Ginny has threatened her son. That she will not stand for, "Ginny, if you ever; EVER, touch even one strand of Romani's hair. I swear by the Throne you'll regret it." her eyes filled with conviction to protect her child, a sudden rush came within her to protect her child.
"HOW ABOUT YOU CALM DOWN AND LEAVE MY HARRY ALONE BITCH!" Ginny raises her wand at Mashu, not caring what comes next. "AVADA KEDAVRA!" A green light hurls towards Mashu.
Mashu saw the light and jumps over to the side, "STAND STILL AND LET ME KILL YOU!" Ginny cast many curses at the former Demi-Servant only for her to dodge each attack.
"Ginny!" Mashu calls out her name, jumping on the bed grabbing the shield on the wall. "I'm sorry that I have to do this, but you leave me no choice in the matter!" She apologies in advance, gripping her shield.
Ginny only laughs seeing the round shield she has. "And what are you going to do with that!? Defect my attacks?" She laughs.
Mashu remains silent, waiting for her move; just like what Leonidas and her Pseudo-brother have taught her. Ginny's eyes twitch at the seriousness this woman has in her eyes. "Tch, BOMBARDA MAXI-"
The Shielder rushes over to her, slamming the shield right into her core. They both hit the floor, Mashu on top of her, she kicks her wand to the other side of the room then pin her on the ground.
Ginny struggles to get free, but she was pinned down with Mashu's strength, "HELP SOMEBODY HELP-"
The doors burst open, revealing Ishtar and Ereshkigal rushing inside. "Mashu, what's going on-"
"Archer-san, Lancer-san, Ginny-san still has an aftereffect on her," Mashu explains to the sister Goddesses. "Help me restrain her until we found a way to break this curse."
Ishtar looks at her sister nodding to the plan. "You got it, Mashu." Ereshkigal grabs one arm while Ishtar gets the other.
"Here, let's restrain her on the bed." Ishtar and Ereshkigal took each arm. Ishtar places some Lapis around her wrist to the framing so the red-haired girl can't escape.
Ginny opens her eyes, her pupils filled with madness and hatred. "I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! LET ME GO YOU SKANKS!" The insane girl screams and shouts while struggling to get free. "YOU'LL REGRET CROSSING GINNY WEASLEY!"
"What has happened to her? She wasn't like this before." Mashu said, worried that there's a side effect when she was trapped inside the monster.
Ereshkigal notices Ishtar pondering in the corner of the room, she was whispering to herself about something. "Archer, what is it? You're usually not so…secluded." The Goddess commented on her sister's strange behavior.
"Yes, you aren't the one who stays quiet when somethings up Archer-san." Mashu also notices her strange behavior.
Ishtar looks at the two, snapping out of her daze. "S-Sorry, it's just I felt like I've seen this before; but can't seem to place my finger on it," she said, having these strange memories she never had before. "It's like some other me has seen these phenomena before."
"Mmmm, I think that's something to look into with Waver. But our focus needs to be on how to help that bratty princess." Ereshkigal uses her thumb to point at the closed door,
"Lancer-san is right, maybe the library has something." Mashu motions, which they all agree.
Ritsuka was petting Fou on his shoulders, he heard the door open and saw Charlotte walking in. "Are they-"
"Yes, both young master Romani and mistress Abigal are saw with Beast and Lancer." The Assassin informs his master. She looks at him, worried was written all over her face. "Are you sure about this master? I get these people are our allies, but disclosing the well guarded secret to them-"
Ritsuka understands what Charlotte is saying, but things have changed. "I understand Charolette but what happened a few hours ago; we cannot hide it anymore." He states seeing his Servant sighing that there's no other choice.
"Alright master, we'll stand by your decision." Charlotte obliged her master's statement.
"Fou, Fou!" Fou jumps in, always in support of whatever decision Ritsuka makes.
The Magus nodded, walking through the dining room door where everyone (including his Servants) was waiting for him. "Ritsuka, how are the children?" James asked, worried for the young ones.
"I had mother watching over them. She can handle things from there." Ritsuka ensures the worried father.
Molly stood up, also worried for her daughter. "What of Ginny? How is she?"
Ritsuka looks at Molly with a worried expression. "Mashu, Archer, and Lancer are taking care of her. Everything is fine." He watched her sat back down in her seat, Arthur places his hand on hers; ensuring her everything is okay.
"Now, I believe you all have some questions you want me to ans-"
"THE HELL WAS THAT BACK THERE!?" Percy shouted before he calms down, regaining his composer. "You and your Servants did the impossible, something the Ministry doesn't have any record of!"
"Yeah, and what's with you calling that boy with that forbidden name!?" Tonks asked, knowing all too well what that name means. "Do you even know what that name brings, Ritsuka?"
Hermione nodded, reading about him in history of Magic. "Francois Prelati, the Dark Lord in French History. One of the darkest Wizards within the Ministry of Magic in France." The Bushy-haired girl stated.
Charles nodded, agreeing with the French's claims about this man. "He has committed many crimes in France, the use of the Unforgivable Curses, Fake Potions and wands, Demonology, Murder, Rape, Plotting, and most of all letting a Muggle know and learn of Magic."
"In essence, he is considered to be under Grindelwald and way above the Dark Lord himself." Remus finishes the little lecture of Prelati.
Moody scoffs, seeing Ritsuka unfazed by the pressure. "Are you an associate of this Caster person you called the Dark Lord of France?"
"MOODY!" Lily scolded the retired Auror for even thinking such a thought. "Ritsuka wouldn't even dream of associating with Dark Wizards!" he defended her 'son'.
"And yet, he's a member of the Forbbiden Order. A Magus." Kingsley interrupts her.
James looked at Kingsley, surprised to see him turn against his son like that. "Kingsley, are you saying you don't trust Ritsuka? He told us everything when he first arrived here and even saved our lives just now." He defended his 'son's' actions as of late; it doesn't matter what he is all that matters is what his actions are now.
"Yes he did, but he is also hiding something." Kingsley responded, "I have seen his face, that's a face of someone who's hiding something that no one can know." He looks at the Magus.
Ibuki glares at Kingsley for looking at her master funny. "Is that a threat human? If it is then…" She shows off her claws, smirking at the human.
"(Talk about scary,)" Tonks whispers to herself, seeing the claws of the Oni.
"Saber, that's enough." Bedivere scolded his fellow Saber Servant.
The Oni rolled her eyes, sitting back down in her chair crossing her arms as well. "Tch, fine Saber," she replied.
"I too notice that too," Jane commented, looking at the Magus. "So what is it you're hiding from us that you decided not to tell?"
Everyone looked at the Chaldeans, more on their master; waiting for a good explanation. Ritsuka kept a cool head and look at the group. "As you are aware I have many Servants serving me. Almost everyone here already knows that my Servants are like familiars with humanoid bodies."
"Wait, humanoid? Are you saying that most of your so-called Servants are non-human too?" Moody looks at Ibuki then remembered Tiamat; something that he shouldn't be surprised about.
Tonks cleared her throat, "Why are you asking that Moody? We already know that Saber over there and Beast isn't exactly human." She looks at her mentor. She then looks at Ritsuka wondering about something for a while. "So how do you obtain your Servants?"
"Servants can be summoned by a master, to be a master you must have this." Ritsuka raised his hand, showing his two remaining Command Seals. The third one he used is slowly returning bit by bit.
"Tattoos?" Ron asked, remembering the Magus showing them to him once. "I saw them glowed before when Saber did something to that Caster person." He commented.
"What are they exactly? Is it some kind of markings?" Remus asked, wondering if it's similar to the Dark Marks that the Death Eaters have on their bodies.
James gulped, "I-Is it anything like the Dark Mark?
Ritsuka place down his hand with a soft smile, "It's an indication that you're indeed a master. With this I can make temporary contracts with Rouge Servants, boost their fighting perimeters, or force them to do something they won't do." he explains.
Everyone gasps at what they just learned. "S-So you're having them work for you as slaves!?" Euphemia asked, horrified to know her other grandson would do this to people.
"You have House Elves here that without any servitude they will die," Merlin commented. "Besides, we chose to serve him to save this world from the Pruning Theoretical Phenomenon and the threat that will cause that." She explains the Wizards.
Hermione jumps, raising her hand as she would do in class. "The Pruning Theoretical Phenomenon, what is it?" she never heard that term before in any books.
"To know that you all need to know the basics." Ritsuka threw a green gem on the center of the table. He raises his hand, mentally activating the jewel. "Projektbild," the gem reacted by showing a holographic image of a circuit grid.
The Order stared in awe, the grid was floating in midair. It showed lines that continues onward and some were cut. "What is this Ritsuka?" Charles asked, impressed by the Magecraft he performed in front of him.
Ritsuka smirks, "I used a gem to project a simple grid of what I'm about to tell you." he snaps his fingers; the gird shrunk into a smaller version as the earth floats above. Many small dots appeared in many countries, seven were blue, four were red, and the others are white.
"From what you see, this is the earth." Ritsuka snaps his fingers once more, this time the earth separated into two orbs. "And these two represent Humanity known as Alaya and the World is known as Gaia. They are the consciousness and will of both Humanity and the Earth."
The twins look at Ritsuka, getting what he means. "Are you saying that the Earth and-"
"Humanity is alive!?" The twins asked in shock by this revelation.
"That's impossible! The earth and humanity can't just…just gain a consciousness!" Hermione shouted in disbelief. "I mean the earth is a rock with the ability to host life!"
Merlin chuckles, "You are surprised by how much knowledge the Association has kept from public and Wizard's eyes." She shrugs, "In short, nobody knows how or why, but they been around for ages and even now." She smiles.
"Fou, Fou!" Fou agreed with his former master.
"So this consciousness of the world and humanity are doing what exactly?" Sirius asked his 'godson'.
"They keep track of parallel worlds, timelines that deviated from the original one," Ritsuka explains. "With these timelines, there are many possibilities for humanity to prosper or delve into stagnation. This is where the Pruning Theoretical Phenomenon takes place."
Ritsuka enlarges the grid once more for all to see. "With many possibilities for Humanity, there are realities that don't fit in Proper Human History." He explains. "But that's for later. For now, I'm going to tell you about the First Order, the Grand Orders."
Jamie and Colin scoff, thinking the title was cool enough. "What a cool title, so what is this Grand Order?" the red-haired boy asked.
"Chaldea isn't just a research facility, it's an organization that prioritizes Humanity's survival." Ritsuka continues. "The founder; Marisbury Animusphere has created Chaldea to defend Humanity, in all the last defense."
"What do you mean, last defense?" Lily asked her 'son'. "Isn't your world has much defense against threats?"
Ritsuka shook his head. "Not against Singularities, there are in total eight. One begins outside of time." He explains. "In essence, Singularities are points of time which Chaldeas is unable to observe."
"Wait, Chaldeas? What is that?" James asked about this Chaldeas thing he's speaking of.
Bedivere steps in, seeing he's the longest-serving Servant within the group to know about this. "Chaldeas is a machine, created by Magecraft and science that has the ability to see in the past." He continues what his master's going to say.
Hermione jumps from her seat, astonished by how Muggles were able to create a device like that, " THAT'S REVOLUTIONARY! A DEVICE THAT CAN SEE THE PAST EVENTS! ATLANTIS, CAMELOT, BABYLONIA!" She gasps realizing what else this device can also do. "…or even the CREATION OF HOGWARTS ITSELF!AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"
Everyone covered their ears from Hermione's excited scream. "Geez! Hermione, I get it; it's really wicked. But please calm down!" Ron pleaded.
"S-Sorry,"
"So, what do you do to deal with these Singularities Ritsuka?" Remus asked a bit impressed that Chaldea would even create something this extraordinary. "I mean time travel is possible with Time-Turners-"
"The Ministry has place laws in the use of a Time-Turner," Percy said proudly of his job. He looks at Ritsuka suspicious of how he was able to do whatever job he was doing. "So how did you accomplish this Grand Order?"
Ritsuka chuckles, "Believe it or not, Chaldea developed a way to travel back in time via science and Magecraft; with the support of the UN of course but it was in the early years before they give us the authority to use it ourselves."
"YOU TRAVELED BACK IN TIME!?" Everyone exclaims, can't believe that muggle technology and Magecraft was able to achieve time traveling without complicated steps like the Time-Turner.
"Yes, I've been to Orleans, Septum, Okeanos, London, America, Jerusalem, Babylonia, Shinjuku, Agartha, Shimosa, and Salem-"
"YOU'VE BEEN TO SALEM!?" Lily gasps knowing what time period he's mentioning. Everyone knew too, with Ritsuka's status as a Magus he is a target for conspiracy by the Muggles.
Charles covers his mouth, knowing all too well about the horrid place. "How were you able to survive prosecution of the Witch trials?" he asked.
"We were clever, planned for any scenarios that might happen there," Ritsuka explains to them. "I've been to places that weren't in Human History such as S.E.A.R.P.H. Along with the last four places I went to; this was the Epic of Remnants," he explains.
"Alright, so how do your Servants play into this?" Moody asked, wanting to know what's so special about them.
"Moody, be patient." Molly scolded the old man. "Ritsuka will tell us eventually."
Ritsuka mentally prepares himself before answering. "My Servants are agents of what we Mages call the Counter Force." An image of a blue orb with rings appeared in the projections.
"The Counter Force? You really have interesting terms when describing them." Jane chuckles.
"So what's this Counter Force do?" Sirius asked.
"In short, it's a defense mechanism that responds to threats to the World or Humanity itself," Ritsuka explains what this force does. "Alaya and Gaia enlist many guardians to counteract the threat. In short, for Gaia; Phantasmal Beings, Spirits, Faries, Elementals, True Ancestors, and Divine Spirits." He pulls up an image of a blue earth.
"And for Alaaya, the Counter Guardians or Heroic Spirits such as Saber here." Ritsuka motions to Muramasa.
Everyone process what he just said, trying to figure out what he's hinting at. Lily however got it rather quickly. 'Senji Muramasa…Japan's most famous Blacksmith-Oh my god.' She looks at Muramasa, knowing what he is. "YOU'RE THE GENUINE-"
"SENJI MURAMASA! YOU'RE THE REAL GUY, AREN'T YOU!?" Hermione gasps, already figuring out his identity. "
"B-But how? It's impossible!" Percy exclaims,
Muramasa nodded, confirming their answer. "Indeed, I'm Senji Muramasa. A Pseudo-Servant who serve my master, Ritsuka Fujimaru."
The groups gaped; this was the real Blacksmith from Japanese History. "S-So, the Dark Wizard Francois Prelati…"
"Is the real Francois Prelati, the one who taught the Mundane Gille De Rais his magic." Ritsuka answered his 'godfather's' statement. "In hind short, Servants are Heroes, Villains, Spirit, Elementals, etc. from Human History."
"WWWWWHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTT!?" Everyone exclaims at the sudden shock.
"S-So you're t-telling u-us that your S-Servants a-are h-heroes from t-the past?" Hermione stammers her words, comprehending the information.
The Chaldeans nodded, causing more shock from the Order. "Due to their fame and other things, they're the ideal candidates for stopping Solomon or Goetia's plan to recreate Humanity."
"S-Solomon, t-the King of Israel." Lily covered her mouth, knowing of his legend. "Y-You faced him?"
"More like his familiars, a hivemind known as Goetia," Ritsuka explains further.
Remus sat down, still coming to terms that his 'nephew' met and work with history's greatest figures. Everyone shared what Remus was thinking, and expressing; complete and utter shock.
"D-Does that mean you met-"
"Yes, I have met Merlin and Arthur Pendragon along with his Knights," Ritsuka answered Charles's question. "I even met and defeated Morgana Le Fey in a Lostbelt."
Now that was a bombshell in itself. "The original Dark Lady? The Morgana Le Fey!?" Jamie exclaims, astonished that his 'older brother' has not only met Morgana Le Fey; but defeated her as well. A whole new respect and admiration have swelled up within him for Ritsuka.
Colin shared the same feelings as his best friend. "You must be the coolest and most wicked person I met!" His eyes were filled with admirations.
"Yeah, meeting and defeating the Dark Lady! You are beyond wicked mate!" Ron exclaims, sharing the same as the two young boys.
Jane ponders a bit while the Order asked questions about Morgana Le Fey. Then she caught the word 'Lostbelt' once again; the first was when Aphrodite, Robin, and Watanabe were talking in the hallway. "You mentioned Lostbelts. What are they?" She asked.
Euphemia heard the term too. "Yes, they seem…dangerous." She said.
"Care to explain?" Moody asked,
Ritsuka snaps his fingers, showing the grid once more. "Lostbelts are Histories that aren't suited for what we call it, Proper Human History. In all, they're timelines that went way off on what the World deems as Proper." He explains the best he could. "They're failed timelines."
"So what are they?"
"First, Russia where Humans fused with Magecraft into a race called Yaga to combat the Ice Age," Ritsuka explains. "It is ruled by Ivan the Terrible, a being who is lived for centuries."
"Dear Merlin, that sounds harsh." Molly gasps at the cold and harsh conditions humans of that world must endure.
"Second was Scandinavia, where Ragnarök failed and Surtr has killed all the Gods except for Skadi." Ritsuka moves one to the next Lostbelt. "Humans of that Lostbelt were treated like cattle, living up to their twenties before they go out and be killed by Giants."
"Wait, so that lesson of the Goddess Skadi. Is it-"
Ritsuka smiles at Hermione, "She's my Servant since the FATE System came back after the Lostbelts. She currently tends to the frozen land to suit the needs of humans." He explains the Goddess's role.
"Wait, frozen land? Where do you say you live exactly back in your world?" James asked, assume that he lives somewhere near the northern hemisphere.
"Ah, Chaldea is located where many countries say they have claimed, Antarctica. In truth, it was a neutral territory that the Director Animusphere has purchase with his wealth." Ritsuka informed the Order.
"The coldest place on earth!? Goodness, you must be freezing up there!" Molly exclaims, somewhere that cold cannot sustain any human. No matter how thick-skinned they were.
Merlin shrugs, "I may be new to Chaldea, but all I can say that with Magecraft the skies the limits." She informed me that nothing is possible. "Even for Divine Spirits who has a portion of their Divinity; they still bring the impossible."
"I see, so Divine Beings are Servants too." Charles ponders, still coming to terms with everything.
"Are there any more places you have been in these Lostbelts?" Jamie asked, feeling that there's more than just those two.
Ritsuka nodded, "Yes, there's more, China where the First Emperor Qin Shi Huang gains immortality and made technology that is exclusive to him and his army. India where another version of Arjuna has absorbed every Indian Deities making him the one and only God." He continues. "In this world, a cycle of rebirth of the world was issued for a utopia in Arjuna's image."
"Dear Merlin, that's a lot…" Charles gasps at how many failed worlds are out in the multiverse.
"Olympus was one of the difficult ones we faced-"
"YOU BEEN TO OLYMPUS!? THAT MEANS YOU MET THE OLYMPIAN GODS!" Hermione exclaims, meeting an actual god would be her life's dream.
Ritsuka chuckles at her investment in the explanation. "Well, it's not an ideal place for humans. With a civil war between the twelve Olympians broke out on how Humanity should be; Hades, Athena, Apollo, Hestia, and Ares opposed the other faction consisted of Poseidon, Aphrodite, Demeter, Hera, and Artemis which became the victors. Thus ruled over Olympus and Atlantis for centuries."
Ron looks at Ritsuka, a bit curious about the other faction. "S-So what happened to the other Gods?"
"Destroyed, what else when you oppose Zeus?" Ritsuka jokes, knowing that he was laughing on his throne. "Heian-Kyo or Kyoto was a Singularity if succeed would become a Lostbelt. Finally Brittian and South America and trust me it's beyond those Lostbelts are beyond chaotic." He looks down remembering the horror he faced when he was there.
Bedivere patted his master's back, knowing that it was a traumatic experience for him. "You don't need to explain, master." He comforts him, "I'll continue for you."
"Thanks, Saber." Ritsuka smiles at his most dedicated Servant.
"D-Did something happened when you venture into those Lostbelts?" James asked, remembering the figures at the fire; standing over his son like they were looking down upon him.
Bedivere nodded, "Master has faced many obstacles to ensure Humanity is restored and safe. However, Brittian and South America was a difficult obstacle for master. I can't delve into it too much due to his mental health."
"M-Mental health?" Lily asked, shocked to hear her 'son' is seeing a therapist; after so many battles that are beyond a human, it's natural to have mental issues with many challenges.
"Yes, Brittian was where it downgraded," Bedivere explains how it started. "In the long run, Brittian was overrun with Faires and where master met Morgana Le Fey. I'm sure you know the Faries before the ones you all knew." Everyone paused, they heard of Faries of old; extinct when the Founders have met their end and where the Age of Faries ended.
Arthur nodded, "Yes, the Faries of old. Horrible things were passed down through stories."
"So you faced some Faries, big deal." Percy scoffs. "Faries are labeled as XX, easy to tame-
Moody and Charles stood up from their chairs, outrage that Percy would discriminate the threat these Faries hold. "PERCY! Don't take lightly of what these types of Faries. They're more powerful than Wizards, take Viviane for an example-"
"Don't forget about Morgana." Merlin sat down on the edge of the table. "She's known as the Fairy Princess for a reason after all." She smiles.
"Her Lostbelt self well…she's a powerful adversary and her Fairy Roundtable," Charles added in, reading the records at Chaldea. "No wonder that Lostbelt is leveled EX. Took a lot from Ritsuka to defeat her, the master, and the King of the Lostbelt."
Now their fear has been realized, "O-Oh god, we learned that when covering Arthur Pendragon and about the real Morgana." Jane gasps. "B-But you manage to defeat her, right?"
Bedivere nodded, "Yes, master was victorious, however…" He looks at his master. "Never mind, South America was not suited for human civilization and where we faced the one who's behind the Lostbelt, U-Olga Marie or Beast VII."
Everyone saw the discomfort Ritsuka has on his face when mentioning that name. Kingsley quickly changes the subject to a matter more pressing. "S-So the Dark Wizard, Francois Prelati. What is it he wants?"
"You tell me, what was that jewel he took here?" Ritsuka eyes at his 'grandparents' for the answer.
Both Charles and Euphemia sigh, knowing they can't hide it any longer. "That jewel, it's a relic from our ancestors Linfred of Stinchcombe. Not is much known about this jewel; Linfred did leave a message to not leave the jewel from our sight." Charles explains what he knows about the family jewel so far. "However, if Linfred's message said to not take our sights from it then it's a relic of importance."
"Whatever the Dark Wizard is planning then it's something malice." Moody grips his hands into a fist, failing to prevent any darkness in the world.
Ritsuka looks at the ceiling, "He's not working alone,"
"Excuse me?"
"What do you mean, not working alone?" Colin asked what his professor means by that.
Charlotte cleared her throat. "It means that the Caster, Prelati is working with other Servants that are working for another master."
"Another master? I thought you were the only master Ritsuka?" Jamie asked,
"I was chosen by both Aalya and Gaia as their master, hence my title," Ritsuka informed the Order. "Other masters are possible if met the right conditions, such as the Crypters of the Lostbelts tasks to expand their regions."
"Alright, then this master command Servants too, right?" Arthur asked the master, receiving a nod from him.
Tonks coughs, wondering about something. "How many, um enemy Servants are there exactly?"
"Francois Prelati is one, Saber of Eden, Rider of Heaven, Archer of Phoenicia, and I assume Avenger of the Gallows," Ritsuka told them the Servants who he either met or heard so far. "Lancer of Melromarc is here too, but I'm betting he's just here as an observer of some sort."
Kingsley crosses his arms, if Francois Prelati is on par with Ritsuka Servants and working with others then this was a big problem. "With the Dark Wizard of France working with other Servants and a master…"
"The chances of defeating him is slim…" Remus sighs, placing his hand on his forehead. With the new information, things got way difficult.
Ritsuka nodded, "And with the names the other Servants have, I can only assume they're Divine Spirits but who knows." He shrugs. "The only way to find out is to face them in person."
"That's optimistic of you, after all, you endure in the last hour," Euphemia commented.
"We can tell you're dedicated and determined to save our world," Charles added to his wife's comment. "My only question is to Charlie over there, how are you a Servant? I know as a fact that I didn't do anything that heroic worthy to be listed by the world."
"Um, dear you have the Potter Sword. That must be a qualification for a Servant right?" Euphemia suggested her reason. "It must have to be a reason?"
James looked at his father, "Father, you haven't picked that sword since I was born."
Charles nodded, "You're right son, I haven't touched that sword in a long time." He looks at Charlie, with one question in mind. "So you process the family sword, Charlie?"
The King of the Franks shook his head in response, "Oh, no that's safely back at Chaldea's vault. I think I should introduce myself." He bows gracefully with a smile. "Servant Saber, my host's name is Charles Potter but my true name is King Charlemagne; the King of the Franks."
"WWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTT!?"
Merlin smiles feeling a strange sensation somewhere. "Caster, are you alright?" Bedivere asked the Grand Caster.
"Of course I am, Saber. I just need time myself." Merlin smiles, walking out of the room.
Merlin walks down the hall, looking at the night sky. "Another piece has been placed on the board. Let's see who'll you help." She said to herself before hearing Mashu's footsteps on the other side of the hall.
"Caster-san, we need you to look at something for us," Mashu calls out to the Grand Servant.
"Mmm? How may I help, Mashu?" Merlin walks over to the former Demi-Servant, curious about what she needs.
At Chaldea Loli Da Vinci was doing her routine check on the FATE System when something caught her eye. "Mmm? That's strange. Why was this on?" She pressed the button on the consul. "Hahaha, that would've been bad if this was left on for too long!" she laughs walking back to her workshop.
Somewhere in the Forbidden Forest
The light faded away; three women stand in the middle of the Forest at night. One wearing all red with a black crown, the other in a black dress, and two different colored iris. The final one wore a black and blue dress with a black crown. In her hand was a black staff.
"This place…it feels familiar." A two-colored-eyed blonde woman felt a familiar sensation in the area they were summoned in. "The Mana here is dying. I can only feel a few small pools of them left." She commented.
The red woman looks around with a smile. "Indeed, it feels like home." She commented. "But a something's different, a Divine presence is strong here."
The black-dressed woman walks over to the rock edge, seeing a familiar castle a few miles ahead. "Wizards never thought I would see them again after their genocide." She said in a cold tone. "Come you two, we have to prepare for Humanity's final master."
"Oh, you're right! I do feel his presence here!" The red woman gleefully replied.
The woman with two-colored eyes sighs, "You're going to do something to him, aren't you?" she asked her fellow Servant.
The red woman shrugs, "Eh, he interested me. Like every female, he encounters, even the one in the human city." She points in the direction of London. "I'm sure she's a Divine Spirit too, on his side as well." She smiles, following the black-dressed woman in the direction of the castle of Hogwarts.
AN: Three new Servants have arrived, I'm sure most of you already know who they are. For Ginny, this isn't her end of the madness, I have planned something for her with one of the new Servants. Please leave a review or a comment.
