I was only going to change berserker at first but then I realised that Ilya would end the war in two seconds if I kept the original servants.
So, here's something new. Lancer's the only one I didn't change and other than that all the servants are OC's, only somewhat related to mythology.
This is going to be ten chapters at the most.
The blood red spear stopped inches away from my heart, blocked by… a scythe?
"Where…?" A soft voice from behind me asked, spinning the scythe infront of me and knocking the spearman away with the scythe's bottom.
"Hah? A Saber using a scythe? Seems like that Archer using modern firearms isn't the only weird o—"
"What. Do you mean, Cu Chulainn, Child. Of light?"
"...again? Are you and that Archer related or something?"
"Did that… 'Archer' tell you his name?"
"Yeah, something about a Roman Gungod."
"Gunlock, and yes. We are related."
"Why are you even telling me this?"
"You asked."
The spearman —Cú— readied his spear.
"Cú Chulainn. Lancer."
A boy, no older than myself with white hair with green accents stepped infront of me, slinging his scythe over his left shoulder and creating a yellow sword in his right hand before pointing it at the spearman.
"Shino Hana…" The boy closed his eyes for a moment, "Saber."
The two disappeared.
The shimmering of the moonlight caught my eyes.
Two weapons collided infront of me, both intending to kill as Cú moved while thrusting and spinning his spear and Shino seamlessly switched between his scythe and sword, blocking and retaliating faster than I could even see.
The sword chipped at Cú's blue spandex, making the man smile and thrust his spear at Shino's chest—
The tip of his scythes blade stopped the spear before it even got close to his chest.
Shino swung his sword.
Cú retreated his thrust and blocked the swing with his spear.
Shino spun to his left, using the momentum he had used to swing to propel himself as he spun behind Cú's back and swung his scythe down, leaving no time for retaliation.
Except.
Cú swung his own spear down to the ground, creating a creater below him as he leapt into the air, making Shino 'miss' his attack.
"Kh, allright master." Cú cursed as he landed on the ground infront of the house and steadied himself as his spear glowed a blood red.
"This was enjoyable but I'm going to have to cut this short!" He lifted his spear above his head, pulling it back before—
"Gae—!!"
Shino tilted his head.
"BOLG!!!"
—Releasing.
A red streak flew through the sky, zig zagging and moving faster than my eyes could see as it shot at Shino's heart.
"I. Do not possess a heart." Shino sighed, time seemingly slowing down around him as he threw away his scythe and double handed his sword, breathing in a huff of air as yellow flames encircled his sword and the glow of the moon began to darken.
"But, you. May try." Time returned, the red streak went through Shino's heart and…
There was no damage.
No blood, no hole where the spear went through, no… nothing.
Cú widened his eyes, and grinned.
Hmm… I'll announce my attack too… I guess…
"SunFlayer." Everything sunk into darkness, the only light remaining being the fire encircling Shino's sword that now lit the entire world, imitating the sun as night turned to day and heat began to rise.
"Tenth seal." The yellow flames unravelled from the sword, spreading like a flower blooming in the sunshine as Shino pulled the sword back, letting the flames settle onto his arm before—
"Release." —a wave of flames spewed out from the tip of the blade, engulfing everything in my vision, the last thing I saw being Cú spinning his spear fast enough to create afterimages of it to try and block the flames or at the least, divert them away from him.
I almost didn't notice the flower-like pattern that appeared on my hand that looked like it was one half of two.
[Shino Hana]
He's… diverting the flames away…
Huh.
Stopping the release of my stamina from SunFlayer for a moment, I lifted it into a wide arc and threw it at him, letting the blade swing for a moment as Chullain stopped spinning his spear and readied a swing to deflect the sword that was flying at him.
Release. Tricks always work, it also seemed to be the case here as flames spewed from the entire blade, making a pillar of flame that was quickly swinging down at him.
Cú widened his eyes.
Then grinned.
"HA!" Twisting his body faster than he had moved while fighting, Cú clashed the flames of my energy with his own red pulsing bloodlust that was concentrated into his spear.
Like I said…
Extending a right arm to my side, I recalled Rose Black to it, the scythe spinning as it was engulfed by my hand, not stopping while I added more and more momentum to it as I extended my left arm infront of me.
I closed my left hand.
Cú's swing missed its target as the flaming pillar that was clashing with his spear suddenly disappeared, before my scythe swung down at his head, guaranteed to hit as rose petals flew out from the tip of it as I swung down.
"Good fight… Sétanta." Cú froze for a moment as his name— his actual name, not the name he was given when he became the hound of Ulster was spoken before a bright white light exploded from him, not blinding me due to my artificial eyes as my scythe landed where the man once stood.
*Crrk— crrk!!"
The ground cracked infront of me, spreading in a straight line quickly before a burst of red light exploded from beneath with rose petals being spread throughout as the red pillars finally slowed to a stop and the ground below retreated to its undamaged form.
"Hm… His descendent didn't even know his true name. I would wonder why he was surprised at being called that." I muttered to myself before reflecting on what the man had said.
Roman's here.
I stared up into the moonlight shining down at me and took in that information before turning to the orange —red?— haired boy injured and sitting with his back pressed to the shed behind him.
"Used. Too much heat." Without Infa to regulate my powers anymore… I had almost no way to change the output level of my Valor's creations.
The heat that was exuded by SunFlayer probably gave him first degree burns all over his body.
"It's my fault so…" A white shield with a lily like pattern manifested in my left hand as I approached the guy and placed it onto his stomach.
"I'll make up for it." With a sigh, I pulled the guy over my shoulder, keeping ahold of both him and the shield and began to walk inside the home.
*Snap!*
And with a single snap of my fingers, all damage was reversed to its original state.
The information I was given didn't specify what I had to do except win a war…
Now, what the hell is looking at me?
[???]
"Looks like you grew even after I left lil bro."
"Archer! What are you doing!?"
"Hm? Nothing, master! Just scouting for servants and masters!"
"FROM MY BATHTUB!?"
"Eh… yeah?"
