AN: Enjoy the Chapter.
Ch 7 Inheritance
The Chaldeans were led by Griphook to a more private room within Gringotts, where he'll bring the Goblin King Gringotts to meet with them. The room walls were dawned in golden bricks and white marble pillars completing the look. red velvet furniture was placed for the important guests of the King was set up between was a glass table with some refreshments.
The Kings of Knights and Merlin materializes as they took their seats waiting for the King of the Goblins to arrive. The Servants were with them were scattered in the room looking at the decorations or thinking to themselves.
Mashu looks at the Golden King who just stares into the teacup in his hand."Uh… King Gilgamesh?" The Golden King looked at Mashu sitting next to his master. "How do you exactly know the Goblin King?" Mashu asked with curiosity.
Gilgamesh leans on the marble pillars before answering the former Demi-Servant "Well Mashu, Gringotts was helping me establishing the treasury of Babylon. We have a few drinks after it was complete and became mutual...associates." He told her the story.
"To think some other people would consider as 'associates' with you, Gilgamesh." Waver said placing down his cup.
"Better watch yourself mongrel, if master wasn't here I would kill you right here and now." The Archer warns the Caster. Waver ignores Archer's warnings and poured some more tea for himself.
The doors open as everyone look to see who it was. "Out of everyone from my long life on this earth passed on to the next. You sir are quite stubborn to die." Gringotts jokes with his old associate. Gilgamesh chuckles walking up to him hugging him.
"Good to see you, my old friend." Gringotts smiles.
"As you as well Gringotts you old bastard." Gilgamesh laughs. "It's been centuries since I later saw you."
"Well, that's a shock." Waver said watching the ordeal.
"What is sir?" Gray asked her mentor.
"That Gilgamesh would be joyful to see another person instead of Enkidu." Waver said noticing that Gilgamesh ignores his comment.
Ritsuka and Mashu smile at the King of Babylonia's friendship with the Goblin King.
Gringotts patted Gilgamesh's back "Now what is it that you need my friend? From what I can tell; you didn't come back from the dead to see me." He jokes with the King of Babylonia.
Gilgamesh smiles at him. "My master here requires a vault in your establishment and transfer his private account to there." He informs him, " We also like to see his inheritance so he can claim it."
Gringotts raised a brow at the term he used that he would never hear. "Master? My Gil how far did you fall that you are serving a master?" he jokes making the king blushed.
"HAHAHAHA, this is entertaining master," Merlin laughs along with the others.
"It is," Ritsuka smiles at the blushing the Archer.
"Uh…I'm sorry to disrupt this, but Senpai has still needed time to get ready for a business meeting," Mashu looks at her tablet for the time.
"I agree." The Alter Ego said taking a sip from her teacup. "I do apologize, he still needs time to get ready back at our hotel room," Koyanskaya added to Mashu's comment.
"Of course," Gringotts said sitting in front of the director of Chaldea. "Mr. Potter I mean Fujimaru, it's nice to see you again all these years. You looked like you have aged quite a bit." He said to him.
"Likewise, King Gringotts. It's been almost…heh time is tricky. I have lost track since I came back." Ritsuka chuckles, " I do not know how long it was since I've been here." He said pondering in his mind before looking at Waver.
"From our standpoint, four years had passed since you've been here. From Gringotts's standpoint, it was a year at most." Waver informs his master. Gringotts was looking at the Chaldeans confused on this topic they were having. Ritsuka noticed his confusion and quickly explain the conversation to him.
"Apologies your majesty, this is a topic me and my associates would like it to be kept secret," Ritsuka smiles at the Goblin King. "I hope you understand."
Gringotts nodded as he took out a parchment "Understandable. We know how the Mage's Association wants their work to be kept close to them, unlike the wizards who brag of their work to everyone." He placed the parchment on the table with a knife.
Arturia stood up quickly as the knife was placed down.
"Easy there, Saber." Ritsuka pats her arm. "This is part of the process of getting what we need," he said calming the King down.
Arturia relaxed and sat back down in her seat. "Apologies master," she watches Gringotts prick her master's finger before it bleeds a single drop of his blood.
Ritsuka's pricked finger was above the piece of parchment as three drops of his blood drips on it revealing his inheritance. They all looked at the list of what Ritsuka inherited from his ancestors.

Ritsuka looked at his inheritance, not really that surprised by it. "Huh, never thought I would have access to your vaults." He said giving it to his servants taking a look at it for themselves.
"Huh, master has access to our vault." The King of Knights said. "I see no qualms here, Saber?" Arthur hand the parchment to his counterpart of this world.
Arturia to it to get a read of herself. Once finished, she shrugs her shoulder. "I too agree with the list." Agreeing to her counterpart's statement. She noticed her mentor nudging her to give him the parchment, she gave in to his demands handing it to him.
Merlin looks over the parchment, seeing a few problems with having this. "My this looks like this might be a problem," Merlin said causing Ritsuka to look at the court Mage. "Don't you agree, Waver?" He asked the other Caster.
Everyone looked at the former Lord of the Mage's Association agreeing with the Grand Caster. "Indeed, if master's former family or the Ministry got hold of his inheritance then things will be difficult as we move forward," Waver explains to them all.
"But why Sir?" Gray asked her mentor not quite getting the problem herself.
"I see now, Senpai is still a part of the Potter family's bloodline and has access to his inheritance," Mashu said before something came up in her mind. "If they get a hold on his inheritance then our secrets might be revealed to them." she continues.
"You are correct Mashu." Waver said making the assistant director blush.
Gilgamesh looks at his old acquaintance. "Old man, isn't there any way to hide my master's inheritance from his family?" he asked him. "If they got a hold of this then problems will surely arise in this world."
The Goblin King nodded understanding the situation they are in. "From what you all are saying it's seems that this is an important secret for Mr. Fujimaru," Gringotts said.
"Yes, I can put his inheritance in the private vault you have set up. There nobody except for you or someone you have authorized can access it." He said taking a look at the parchment, he nearly had a heart attack from reading the names on it.
"Something wrong, your majesty?" Ritsuka asked the Goblin King.
"Y-You have access to both the Pendragon and Merlin vault?" Gringotts stammers after reading his client's inheritance.
"Ah, yes I can explain why's that, your majesty," Ritsuka smiles sheepishly, explaining how he was able to access the vaults and his adventures at Chaldea.
Gringotts was impressed by the Magus. He has done something that not even the Boy-Who-Lived could do in his lifetime. "I-I must say Mr. Fujimaru, I'm impressed. Not even Dumbledore or your bother could so anything like that." He bows at Ritsuka in respect for the Magus feat. "You have our loyalty. You may ask anything of the Goblin Kingdom."
Ritsuka held out his hands to the Goblin King."Thank you, your majesty. Though I would rather be allies, sounds better that way." He said to Gringotts.
Gringotts smiles at his humble personality. "I can see why Gil took interest in you, Mr. Fujimaru. Very well the Goblin Kingdom will be your allies with Chaldea, Mr. Fujimaru." he shook his hand. "May our friendship last for eternity."
Ritsuka smiles at him. "I'm glad to hear that your majesty."
After the business with Gringotts was finished, Ritsuka and his servants return to the Mundane world. They walk to the limo in the nearby parking lot. Ritsuka took out his phone and dial a number on it. "Hello…Yes, it's me…Yes, you may proceed to go to the mansion…I will be sending Sabers and Archer back…Yes…okay, I will see you soon…bye." He ended the call.
"Master, was that Ruler?" Arthur asked him.
Ritsuka looks at the King of Knights with curiosity written on his face. "Yes, it is, I need you three to go to the Peverell Mansion to secure it for the Ruler and the staff to start working on it." He orders his three Servants.
"Yes master," they said in unison before desterilizing, heading off to the new Chaldean Outpost.
"Mashu, what time is the dinner with Grunnings again?" Ritsuka asked his assistant.
Mashu pulls out her tablet and scrolled down to the time of the dinner. "Seven o'clock Senpai," she said as he looks down at his digital watch.
"It's Four-thirty," Ritsuka sighs, coming up to the parking lot.
"Plenty of time to freshen up Fujimaru," Koyanskaya said opening the limo door.
"Yeah, plenty of time," Ritsuka said entering the limo.
Hogwarts
Everyone stared at the Chaldean representatives as they took their seats at the edge of the Gryffindor table. They all stare at them chatting amongst themselves about things they don't understand. They haven't touched the food on the table that was set for them, only the tea that the metallic maid serves for them.
Charles sneers at them untrusting how they look. "I much prefer that mongrel's cooking that this shit," Gilgamesh said sipping his tea.
"Even though we don't need food to sustain ourselves, Mr. Emyia's food is quite enjoyable," Holmes commented to the Caster.
"Agree," Siegfried spoke the first words since he got here.
"It's a good thing I brought some tea to last us for a week," Reines said holding out her teacup as Trimmau poured her some more tea.
Hermione looked at the Chaldean representatives as they chatted away to themselves. "Hey Ginny, I'm going to talk to them," she said to her fellow Gryffindor.
"Can I join you? I a bit curious as well." Ginny asked the bookworm. She looks at them and has to admit, she was curious as well.
"Let's go." Hermione got up from her seat along with Ginny about to go talk to them when Charles grabs her arm. She looks back at him wondering why Charles would grab her arm.
"What is it, Charles?" she asked him.
"Hermione, you can't be serious about talking to them?" Charles asked her.
"Uh…yeah, I am." The bushy-haired girl replied feeling another lecture about strange things being dark.
"Hermione, they're serving a dark wizard," Charles said pointing to the metallic maid as it serves more tea to the Servants. "They can't be trusted!"
"And what makes you believe that?" Ginny rolled her eyes getting annoyed at the same reason he uses every time something is unexplained.
Ron stood up from his seat, pointing at Trimmau. "Well look at that thing serving them! it's a demon!" supporting Charle's claim about the Servants.
"Seriously?" Hermione said blandly with a blank face. Ginny shook her head at how idiotic her older brother and Charles is.
"Ms. Archisorte clearly said it was a golem from her family's magic," Ginny explains it to him. "There nothing dark about that."
"I'm quite curious about it. How it functions. How it was made!?" Hermione nearly shouts, Ginny places her hand on her friend's shoulder. She looks around her noticing that everyone is looking at her. "Sorry," she sheepishly said.
The bushy-haired girl shakes it off returning to the state she was in before her freak out."In any case, they might be nice people," Hermione said as both her and Ginny went over to them ignoring Charles's and Ron's protest.
Reines was drinking her tea as Trimmau taps her shoulder. "Master," she looks at where she's pointing at and saw the Gryffindor girls watching them walk towards them.
"Hello, my name is Hermione Granger and this is Ginny Weasley." Hermione introduces herself and Ginny.
"Hello," Ginny greeted the Servants.
"Hello to you, I'm Reines El-Melloi Archisorte." The Rider introduces herself to them.
"Archisorte? It sounds like it's a pureblood family name, but I never heard of it." Ginny asked trying to remember the name if she heard it before.
"I'm sure you never heard of it. I belong to the El-Melloi family, they're from the mundane world." Reines closing her eyes letting the room sink the information in.
A loud bang came from the other side of the table. "WAIT! YOU'RE A MUGGLE!?" Charles exclaims causing some people to worry.
"Not exactly, my family is a part of another organization other than Chaldea called the Mage's Association." Reines smiles calmly, "I'm not allowed to say what it is or what they're about. All I can say they know of the Wizarding world from the inside and out." The Rider left it at that.
This causes some to worry, a muggle organization knows the Wizarding World with the Ministry of Magic finding out.
"Anyways, you're a bit too young to be a representative will the others are old enough," Hermione said changing the subject.
"Yeah, how did you get this job?" Ginny asked getting curious about it.
Reines took a sip from her cup before telling them. "Well, the Association asked me to assist my elder brother with his assistant and master to investigate strings of events in London." She said making them interested.
"What kind of event?" Ginny asked intrigue in the story.
"Let's see…Ah! The mysterious disappearance of important items and that stuff." Reines informs them, "Things led to another and I decide to join Chaldea." She concluded.
"Interesting, how come the Ministry get involved?" Ginny asked knowing that Minister Fudge knows what going on in the muggle world.
Holmes chuckles. "Because both the Association and Chaldea want to keep things secret from the public. It's a matter that only a few can be involved in."
"Oh no wonder," Hermione said looking at the Golem standing beside Reines. "I'm sorry but I was wondering if you can tell me how you made uh…Trimmau. She's fascinating and it will benefit the Wizarding World."
Dumbledore was waiting for this moment. Knowing that Ms. Granger is a bookworm and wants to know everything this would be perfect to replicate and use it to his benefit. It is for the Greater Good.
Gilgamesh laughs making everyone look at him. "You…You…You think a magus would share their knowledge and...and research with anyone!? HA! This is just priceless!" he continues laughing.
Hermione looks at Reines sighing. "He's right,"
"What?"
"The art that Trimmau's creation is an El-Melloi's secret." Reines said in a serious tone, "Only an El-Melloi can know the art and I speak for every magus family as we take pride in our craft." She said to them.
"B-But by wizard law every family must share-"Hermione said before Reines looks at her.
"I'm not a wizard, the term for my kind is a Magus, Ms. Granger. Magus families are quite secretive and protective about their craft; unlike wizards who share any new finds they discover, we magus take pride in it." Reines said to the Bushy hair girl. "I'm sorry, but I can't let you know my family's craft." She said sternly.
"To put it simply 'To be a Magus is to walk with death.' The craft we used is dangerous for others except for the ones who used it." The Rider simplifies it for her.
Hermione was about to say something but came to realize what she means "I-I'm sorry if I'm too pushy." She apologizes. "I was quite eager to learn a new kind of magic though I forgot the consequence it will bring." She said feeling guilty for pushing it.
"It's fine Ms. Granger. Now you know." Reines smiling at her.
"Anyway, what is Harry Pot-I'm sorry Ritsuka Fujimaru like?" Ginny said changing the topic.
Dumbledore was disappointed. He never knew that there are wizards out there who don't follow the Magic law. He must find out more of these 'Magus'.
London October 31st, 2023
Ritsuka changes into the Anniversary Blonde mystic code as he steps out of the hotel room where Koyanskaya, Mashu, Waver, and Gray was waiting for him.
"I see you're ready, master." Waver said adjusting some papers in his hands.
"Yes, let's get going. I want this meeting down and over with," Ritsuka said with a stern face. They left the hotel to meet with their last business meeting today.
They got into the limo as it drove to their destination. Mashu looks at Ritsuka looking out the window. She was worried about him meeting his relatives again.
"Senpai, how are you fairing?" she asked worried if this meeting is too much for him.
Ritsuka turns his head to her and smiles. "Don't worry Mashu. I can handle myself just fine." He said to his assistance.
"Okay, if you say so Senpai," Mashu said still feeling worried for him.
After a few minutes driving they're nearby the restaurant."We're here sir." The diver said stopping in front of a fancy restaurant with lights brighten the dark sky.
"Thank you, Xander," Ritsuka thanked the driver. Xander nodded before driving away to the nearest parking lot.
The Chaldeans look at the restaurant, Ritsuka took in a deep breath and look forward. "Welp no time as the present, let head inside,"
"Yes master," they all said following their master inside the restaurant.
