*Berserker's House*

There was eerie silence in the house, as if there was no one living in there. The only sound that could be heard if one focused enough was the footsteps of Berserker walking around the house.

"In a few more moments, my plans will be finally executed. Everyone will bow down to my strength!" Berserker proclaimed

Berserker lifted up the chin of his master and stared at the eyes which are devoid of emotion.

"It seems that our roles have reserved Master, or should I call you Servant?" Berserker questioned sarcastically.

As expected, the master did not answer which fueled Berserker's laughter.

"I will leave the rats to scurry around feebly for one more day which I show them who is the one that will win this war!" Berserker cruelly declared

*Ace's House*

"Now that jokes and introduction are over. Let us begin to discuss the strategies for the upcoming battles with the other Masters." Kagami said with a serious yet apologetic face

"Finally, someone bring this meeting back on track! Lia, will you please leave as we are about to start an important meeting?" Ace exasperatedly said with a hint of anger, unsurprisingly annoyed from the earlier teasing

"You just reminded me of my purpose in visiting you!" Lia happily said.

"You have a purpose in doing things?" Kagami silently wondered.

"I want to be a part of your team. I have a very powerful servant which will definitely help you!" Lia continued to rattle on with her annoying high pitch voice.

"What class is your servant anyways?" Ace curiously asked.

"Caster." Kagami interrupted in a deadpan voice, not wanting to hear Lia's annoying chatter more than necessary.

Too bad things just did not work out for Kagami.

"Kagami Chan, how did you know that?" Lia asked with a look of surprise

"Because you were shouting out your servant's class when we met just now." Kagami answered calmly and looked at Lia like she was an idiot (which is not far off from the truth)

"Master! Did someone mention my glorious name!" Caster materialized, still wearing the cape that was forcefully donned on her.

"I hate this cape. It is making me itchy; I will take it off now to prevent ugly red rashes from ruining my beautiful porcelain skin." Caster complained and stripped off her cape

Kagami covered Ace's eyes immediately while Lia was rooted to the floor in shocked of how bold her servant was.

"What are you doing! You are Lia's servant. If you want to strip, do it in front of her and not my Master! This is my home so I demand you to wear something more modest! Your looks are nothing to flaunt at all!" Archer who so happened walked out of the kitchen screamed in fury.

Ace struggled to remove Kagami's hand to see what was the commotion about but ultimately failed.

"Why are you covering my eyes?" Ace asked

"Trust me, it would be better if your eyes were covered. You are still too young to see this" Kagami tried to explain as vaguely as possibly

"I assume it is Caster who is now currently almost or full naked right in front of me?" Ace deduced from the conversation that happened.

Kagami nodded.

Ace knew Kagami nodded although he could not see as unknown to Kagami because Kagami was too preoccupied with Caster, when she covered his eyes, her boobs were resting on his head. The moment Kagami nodded, her boobs bounced on his head.

He actually liked the feeling but he did not dare to say it, fearing the wrath of all the female occupants in the room.

As if to break the tension, the perverted teddy bear dashed across the room, eyes ogling at Caster's body.

"I will cover her up. Leave it to little old me!" It yelled in a perverted voice

"Where do you think you are going. No perverted tendencies in this house" Kagami said and proceeded with a solid roundhouse kick while continuing to cover Ace's eyes, which blasted it out of the window.

The sensation of her chest moving across Ace's head made him have a slight nosebleed which he quickly rubbed away with his hands, hoping that no one had seen it.

"I will be back! You have not seen the last of me!" It declared before it went out of sight

After arguing for a few more minutes including the threat of both Lancer and Archer eliminating her, Caster finally conceded and put on some clothes.

"Now that the distractions are finally out of the way…" Kagami said and removed her hands from the Ace's eyes.

As everyone attention was on Kagami and no longer on Caster, everyone in the room saw Kagami's chest jiggled from the lack of support after leaving Ace's head.

Everyone other than Kagami and poor Ace, starting laughing like mad as they realized where Kagami's chest had been the whole time till now and the implication behind it.

Kagami had a perfect impression of a tomato while Ace was no better, he was fighting a full on blush that was appearing on his face.

"Ka. Ga. Mi. Chan." Archer smiled, not in a nice way of course and continued to give an earful for her actions.

Meanwhile, the perverted teddy bear recovered from the previous kicked, floated beside Ace's ears and whispered "Damn, you're a lucky bastard and I saw that nosebleed when she rubbed her boobs on you"

It winked at Ace's now fully flushed face and floating away while strategizing some plans for the future.

After a few moments of nagging from Archer, Kagami continued to explain the ground rules while rubbing her sore ears with Ace chipping in once in a while

"I'm starting to think it's Britannia, not Japan…" mumbled Caster after hearing Ace's accent

"I'm British, do you have a problem with that?" Ace asked angrily, not happy with the accusation.

"We will discuss this later! Not now!" Kagami said in a firm voice, therefore ending the dispute.

Ace pouted and agreed. He would not never mention it but he was impressed by how Kagami had carried the discussion and how focus she was

"Currently we figured out the identity of three out of seven masters which is actually each other and we still have not fought even one master aside from each other. We have to make some progress in the war and reduce the number of participants, even if that means we look for a fight. No one should know about our alliance in case they create their own alliance if they knew. We would contact each other through this" Kagami explained and waved her mobile phone.

Lia was delighted she could get Ace's number and mentally thanked Kagami for giving her an excuse

Kagami then procced to take out her notebook from her bag and showed the occupants in the room some of the strategies Lancer and herself thought of in case they would have fight a servant from that particular class.

After the discussion, Lia and Kagami were prepared to head home and they bid to goodbye to Ace and Archer

Before they managed to step out.

"Boom!" A loud explosion was heard.

"Where in the world did that sound come from?" Kagami panicked and she ran out of the house with Ace following behind her.

They gasped at the pillar of fire that stretched all the way up to the sky.

"K-Kagami san, what do you think that the pillar of fire is?" Ace asked worryingly

"I honestly do not know. But one thing is for sure, it has to be a servant." She shook her head

No words were needed as they made eye contact with each other and understood the meaning.

'Let us investigate the source of the pillar of fire' Both of them thought simultaneously

Kagami looked back to invite Lia, only to realize that she was gone.

Putting that at the back of her mind, Ace and Kagami along with their servants ran towards the pillar of light fire

'I am curious what is the purpose of the explosion. Why would a servant give away his location like that as if he is calling everyone to come? Is it possible the explosion is nothing but a distraction? Or is a deeper meaning?' Ace pondered
