Muahahah! I have arrived to bring you chapter 8!
So we remember how the vote ended with Akari going Vigilante? Well since she now has the appearance of Foxie (which the outfit hides her new divinity), and her Mothra form. It's entirely possible to play both sides… and with Semiramis? Oh that's going to be SO much fun.
Comments!
Bearticguy7: I love Godzilla and all the other kaiju, and when I got the Mothra Statue AND the Lesser species changing potion, I knew what I had to do.
Mothra is going to make a few more appearances before eventually she makes a more permanent appearance in the fic. I actually plan to make a Godzilla fanfiction at some point, hopefully soon.
Hahaha sadly the Justice League won't know Akari and "The Divine Moth" are connected for a while. However when it's revealed who knows?
ZeroSpearow: I absolutely forgot about how much Semiramis would hate Aqualad and Aquaman. That gives me an idea for Semiramis plans.
Akari is never going to mention her death, I always hate how Gamers are all "Oh meh they died, their fine now". Akari has trauma and that trauma is eventually going to bite her in the ass, painfully. But perhaps it may help develop an even deeper bond.
Hmm Semiramis taking the Throne of Atlantis, a possibility but unsure on it for now. Sadly never watched Flashpoint Paradox but I know enough details to think bad idea to have a situation similar to it.
I am completely fine with Volcarona, it's an absolutely amazing Pokémon and I always have 1 on my team. However who knows what Pokémon form she'll get?
Fairy Tail is amazing, but during the age of dragons huh. It'd give me more creative freedom, I'll have to think on it. She'll get a God Slayer Magic at some point, however who knows how long it will take.
Dragonnarrow20: Pokemon is… unique as If I do do it, it will probably be anime-game mix with some realism added in. Akari is not as powerful as you seem to think, many Pokémon would take her down easily, and don't get me started on how the legendary would destroy her.
2-Sickly-Sweet: Pokemon is fun, and yes I know her similarity to Volcarona.
Young Dr pepper: A zanpakuto would be interesting, however it's impossible to turn Yamato into a Zanpakuto.
Eranore: Elden Ring and Bloodborne are terrifying. Even when you have the craziness of Fate.
Hmm is that true for the Scarlet Rot? I'll need to research to check that. Also the "Eldritch Entities" of Bloodborne and Elden Ring aren't really that impressive from what I know. Sure their powerful, but compared to some ones that literally exist and end timelines…
I feel you may be over-hyping Scarlet Rot, but despite playing Elden Ring I'll happily admit I'm not all knowing. But Types are still absolute monsters. So yea need to research it to see how dangerous Scarlet Rot is.
Bloodborne if Akari enters it, she could not leave until she finds a way to stop them following her, or killing them all. Yea Akari is going to stay away from that blood.
raxon1221: ? why would Bleach react to divinity, I don't think any of the people there even have divinity, not even sure the Soul King has any divinity.
P34644563 (Chapter 2): DC is not the main thing of the fic, but it will show up quite a few times.
Harems aren't bad if they're done right, but sadly most are not done very realistic, with many using basically mind control (That's what those Harem King skills are, nobody can convince me otherwise). Also I've never stated Akari's sexuality so she could have a normal or reverse harem… if she ends up getting one. I've already decided Romance is not likely, however it and a harem are possible (If a harem does exist, it will be only those who'd actually accept being in a harem and only a small harem of at largest 5). This is ONLY if I do end up going harem route.
P34644563 (Chapter 3): Akari isn't knowledgeable about DC or Young Justice in general. She knows some things but not a lot. She thinks Young Justice is a safe world to gather power.
Akari doesn't get credits a lot from quests and she needs to pay for food and supplies, so she's not exactly rich right now. The Rayquaza thing was a joke. The Pokémon are not like the game where you can just catch an entity capable of destroying the world so easily, Legendary Pokémon are seriously powerful if you read through all the info on them.
P34644563 (Chapter 5): When did I ever say that Akari would never get a Pokémon? Just because she didn't go to the dungeon once, she'll still be visiting the Pokémon world eventually.
BeamCannon: Oh that's an absolutely devilsh idea, and gave me some ideas. You know I actually forgot the Servant mental link, thank you for reminding me.
Jojo or Overlord huh? I think the stand arrow would just bring out more of Semiramis potential, but Akari however could likely gain a stand.
True, being built as a game dungeon and not a real dungeon does make it rather pathetic to anyone powerful enough trying to get in. I'll need to check the wiki though for more information.
Honestly, I just stayed still taking in my appearance for a bit. However I eventually snapped out of it and started to clean myself up, it was kind of awkward. Knowing I had wings but them not being there, I did manifest them quickly to check if they needed cleaning and was pleased to learn if I de-manifested them, they cleaned themselves.
After finishing cleaning myself up and getting dressed, I headed to my living room to find Semiramis. She was reading through newspapers with a frown on her face and a look of disgust in her eyes.
"Is something wrong? You seem displeased". Best to keep being polite, I don't want to offend her.
"Indeed, these superheroes are truly disgusting. Not a single hero on the Throne would ever agree with their ideals, if you wish to truly save people, you must kill what threatens them". She explained, the look of disgust increasing as she went on. "And of course, the most disgusting are those… things".
"Those things? I'm afraid I don't know what you mean". I questioned confused, what heroes disguised her so much? Instead of answering, Semiramis simply pointed to an image of Aquaman with Aqualad on the newspaper. Oh yea, I need to figure out a way to stop her declaring war on them.
"I have nothing against you messing with them, but can we avoid killing?". I couldn't stop a bit of begging at the end there. Semiramis just gave me a 'what do you think look?'
"And what can you offer, that would make not killing them worth it?". She questioned, a sly look on her face. This actually led me to mentioning an idea that started forming ever since I saw my new form.
"How about being a playing the entire world for fools?". I offered, hoping to grab her attention with this offer. Semiramis frowned but nodded signalling me to go on.
"Well as you know, I've been going out as Foxie for a while. People view her as a superhero, and while wearing the outfit my appearance changes back to Foxie. However my new appearance… nobody knows about it, and it'd be easy to convince the world my new appearance is a new villain, we could even possibly get an invitation to 'The Light'. So what does this interest you?". While the idea of playing villain hit my morals hard, I had to do some things that disgusted me if I really wanted to get some real power. I'm sure Semiramis would get a kick out of playing the entire hero and villain system for fools.
"I see… despite you're kind hearted attitude, you're capable of being quiet cruel aren't you? Very well then, I accept". Semiramis stated, a smirk on her face. I had to hold back a sigh of relief.
"Guess I should start preparing a custom huh". I started to gather my art and building supplies, while Semiramis started frowning at my work.
"You're planning to work with that? No, I will not have my master be running around dressed as a fool! While I'll accept it for your Foxie persona as she's already made an impact. However I will not accept your second persona dressing as a fool!". A chill went down my spine, why do I sense an upcoming forced makeover? Semiramis proceeded to take my supplies and start taking my measurements.
Confused and slightly freaked out, I just stayed still as Semiramis started planning my new appearance, using some paper and pens to sketch different outfits and sowing a few things together.
"Uh, Semiramis are you not going to add any of the more… durable materials?". I was confused, while yes my Foxie outfit didn't look it, it was made of rather durable materials. However the outfit Semiramis was making seemed to be only made of soft and delicate looking materials.
"Think girl! You are a mage are you not? Enchanting these clothes to be as durable as steel should be easy!". Her tone implied she thought I was an idiot, but before I could say anything she was already forcing me into the outfit. And not only that, she was doing my hair and make-up.
By the time Semiramis was done and I finally got a look at myself in the mirror, I couldn't stop a gasp from my throat. While I knew Semiramis was really good with this kind of stuff, even I was shocked at how she made me look.
I was wearing a sky blue kimono with decorations of white moths similar to Mothra across it, and my hair was styled similar to Mashu, with a Silver Moth decoration in my hair. I had white leggings covering my legs leading to sky blue short heels.
My nails were painted a sparkly sky blue I suspected may be painted with poison, while my face had black eyeshadow, pink lipstick and some other make-up. My cheeks were given a bit of colour with some light blush (Warning I have, absolutely no skill with fashion or make up so this may end up just being horrible description).
All in all, I hardly recognised myself. With my moth like features revealed, I hardly seemed human at all. Semiramis had a pleased smile on her face, taking my silence as approval, which it was.
"Wow… I didn't know it was… possible to look this nice. You're really good at this Semiramis". I complemented the Wise Queen, while I still kept looking at myself in the mirror.
"Of course, if you intend to be a 'villain', you must be attention grabbing, and your new divine aura will be detectible without the Foxie mystic code. So we must work with your divine blood in your origin story". Semiramis explained.
"Origin story? I guess I need to think of a few details for that". A divine blood huh? Still doesn't feel real. And I did not to think of some kind of story for my 'Mothra' Persona, I need a name as well. I had some kind of divinity, so maybe act as a demi-god daughter of some Goddess? Possibly.
As I was thinking and discussing ideas with Semiramis, I was shocked to suddenly get a rather startling quest.
Name: Defeat or Capture.
Requirement: The Team have been sent after you because of Batman's paranoia, settle things peacefully or defeat The Team.
Reward: 6 Middle Gacha Tokens, Archery Skill Level 1, Small Kryptonite Shard, 10 Levels to Alchemy, Hydrokinesis Spell Level 1, Shapeshifting Skill Level 1, and 10 Levels to Mechanic Skills.
W-what?! BATMAN IS DOING WHAT?! Quarts how much time do I have?!
[You have around 3 hours before they attack]
"Semiramis, we have an issue". I told her and started explaining… and from there? We planned.
Different Pov…
The Team had finally been sent after Foxie, they hadn't been able to figure out anything and now they were being forced to capture someone possibly innocent.
"This is so wrong, I'm not the only one seeing how wrong this is right?". Asked Kid Flash, his stuck in a frown. He had been the most adamant about this being a horrible idea.
"We don't have a choice, hopefully Foxie just comes in and we can discuss this peacefully". Replied Robin. He had known Batman the longest and had grown used to his Paranoia, however even he felt this was off.
The Team had all felt wrong about this mission, however they still trusted the Justice League and would do as told. But the feelings of guilt was strong. They had prepared plans for dealing with Foxie, plans for dealing with any backup that may help her. They had prepared for everything, except what was about to happen.
Suddenly Robin's communicator went off, a blaring noise that grabbed all their attention. Wide eyed Robin quickly activated it to hear what was going on. And the cold voice of Batman echoed out.
"Team, change of plans. You are to immediately head to Metropolis Museum, Superman is fighting an unknown poison user and another is robbing the museum. You need to handle the partner while Superman handles the Poison User. All missions of dealing with Foxie are to be put on hold till you deal with these new supervillains". The words were rushed, but the Team heard them clearly and felt a chill down their spines. A poison user capable of fighting Superman and a complete unknown robbing the bank? This was bad with a capital B.
"And somehow this has gone from bad to worst! Let's move out quickly guys!". Robin stated and already the Team had changed directions to Metropolis Museum. When they arrived they were greeted to a shocking sight, people were lying about foaming at the mouth while others were a horrible discoloured purple. But the most horrifying sight was Superman, gasping for breath under the heel of a woman.
Her elf-like ears, stunning beauty, and fancy outfit immediately made her stand out, but it was the look in her eyes that really sold the deal. She was staring down at the Man of Steel as if he was nothing but a bother, while some type of poison dripped from her fingers.
"This is the supposedly invincible Superman? Truly I am disappointed in what the people these days call 'Heroes'". The Woman spat out the word heroes as if it was poison, however her gaze turned to the Team, and sending chills down their spines. This woman was not human, it wasn't just the elf-like ears that told them this, but something deep inside their chest screamed they were facing something inhuman.
The tap of heels dragged their attention, as another stunningly beautiful woman, no girl. Walked into the scene, her outfit was decorated with silver moths while her cyan eyes glowed with powers. She also carried an inhuman aura, enhanced by the grey antenna and moth wings emerging from her body. In her hands she was holding some type of relic.
"They are called 'The Team', a rather simple name but fitting I suppose. But all together they are simply inferior members of their mentors". Her voice was soft and pleasing, while her eyes went over each figure of the Team.
"And you two are?". Aqualad asked, trying to buy time in order to get Superman a chance to escape while also fishing for information. The elf like woman laughed mockingly, while at the same time with strength seemingly impossible for her petite form, she kicked Superman towards them, with Superboy quickly grabbing the older Kryptonion, pushed back a bit by the force. Looking at his face, the Man of Steel was completely knocked out by whatever poison the woman had used.
"I have had many names given to me by history, the Wise Queen, the world's most ancient poisoner, I have even been counted amongst the Nine Worthies in some cases. You children may call me Semiramis". The elf-like woman replied. "Oh and don't worry for your precious Superman or these people, the poison isn't lethal, their current states are just their bodies expelling the poison". Her words gave no comfort to The Team, her supposed identity added confusion to those who know of her.
"You may call me Mosura, sadly unlike Lady Semiramis I do not have a long explanation of my titles to given. However I know very well who each of you are…". The Moth girl claimed, a mocking smile on her face. The Team tensed, how much did this villain know of them?
"And what exactly do you know of us?". Aqualad asked, while the rest of the Team ether subtly prepared for battle or to move the citizens and Superman to a place to heal.
"Oh many things, Kaldur'ahm, a foolish atlantean with a foolish family". The casual way Mosura stated the true identity of Aqualad shocked them all into silence, however her second sentence made the atlantean go pale.
"And of course I know the boy wonder, Robin, Real name Richard 'Dick' Grayson, a former member of the Flying Grayson's with his family before their murder. Adopted son of the Batman, or would you prefer Bruce Wayne?". Horror filled Robin's eyes at the mention of his true name, rage at his family's, and finally fear when she uttered the true identity of the Batman.
"Next of course is the Kid Flash, Wally West. Who made himself an inferior version of his Uncle, Barry West, The Flash. A foolish child who refuses to believe in magic in order to pretend he has some control over the situation". Kid Flash's expression went slack, his body and mind freezing over some of his deepest secrets being talked of so casually.
"Oh one of my favourites! Superboy, no real name yet. A clone of Superman not even a 1/6 of his power. He can't even fly! And of course he's always hiding behind an expression of anger to hide his insecurities". The mocking made the Boy of Steel rage, and he looked seconds away from rushing forward to attack.
"Artemis, Real name Artemis Crock. Not very creative if you ask me, pretended to be the niece of Green Arrow, however her true family is that of Sportsmaster, and the former criminal Huntress, or would you rather Lawrence and Paula Crock? How amusing, a child of villains trying to be a hero". Mosura giggled softly, while Artemis's face was frozen in horror, her darkest secrets revealed.
"And finally, Miss Martian, Megan, or M'gann M'orzz. Niece of Martian Manhunter, however before she stowed away on his Ship, he barley even knew she existed. Her only knowledge of Earth only came from an old TV show". Miss Martian's face went almost unnaturally pale, strangely pale.
"Not even worth the name of heroes, just a bunch of children trying to play hero. Aww but don't worry, it will only be us who know now. These are aren't in any condition to pay attention to all these secrets". Mosura waved her hand around towards the knocked out citizens, her face covered in a mocking smile. The Team was shocked by her revealing their secrets so casually, however they managed to gather themselves quickly.
"H-how do you know all this?! How do you know our mentors identity?!". Demanded Aqualad, he had gathered himself quickly, his stance nervous and it looks like he was seconds from running away.
"Oh how do I know? Maybe your Justice League isn't that good at hiding as you think? Maybe I have mind reading powers? Maybe I'm just a good guesser". Mosura mocked. However after she stated this Superboy let out a roar of rage and leaped at her, but Mosura simply pointed her hand at him and blasted him with a beam of Light. The magical attack, one of the few weaknesses of Kryptonions, was devastating to the un-prepared Superboy, landing on the ground with his chest burned and bleeding. This action shocked the rest of the Team into Action.
Kid Flash rushed forward, his fist blurring by his sheer speed. However Mosura's wings glowed blindingly bright and let out a flash, stunning the Speedster who didn't have time to prepare himself before a chain wrapped around him from head to toe, forcing the speedster to the ground unable to escape.
Used to such blinding lights, Robin recovered quickly and threw some smoke bombs at Mosura and Semiramis, trying to gain a moment of recovery. However 3 beams of light emerged from the smoke and slammed into Robin, his scream of pain cut short as he was completely knocked out, and one of his arms bent in the wrong direction.
Artemis and Aqualad recovered more slowly than Robin and only completely recovered to hear Robin's scream and see him fall to the ground. Artemis tried loading an arrow into her bow, but she was forced to dodge a spiked chain that stabbed through where she was just standing. Aqualad rushed at Mosura who simply smiled and shot a blast of pink and white energy towards him, slashing his water blades towards the beam, Aqualad was caught directly as the blast exploded right in front of him, severely damaging the young atlantean who fell to one knee.
Artemis kept dodging the chains, however Semiramis stayed completely relaxed even as the younger girl rushed towards her throwing a punch. But Semiramis who was a Servant, simply grabbed Artemis hand and twisted, shattering the bones. Artemis screamed in agony as Semiramis slashed her across the chest with her nails, the wound quickly turning an unhealthy shade of purple. Falling to her knees, Artemis passed out in agony from the mix of her broken hand and the poison coursing through her body.
Seeing Artemis fall, Aqualad let out a scream of rage and sent a blast of water towards Semiramis. However in doing this he forgot Mosura, who knocked him out with a strike to the neck before the water blast even got close to Semiramis.
Seeing her comrade's fall one after another, Miss Martian was terrified. If the rest of the Team were so easily taken care of, what chance did she have? She needed to escape, call for back up, anything!
"Oh what's wrong Megan? Worried now your comrades are down? You know it's funny really, the fact you call them friends without revealing your true species to them". Mosura started approaching Megan, who was simply shaking and stepping back, this girl really did know the truth of her species.
Desperate and willing to do anything to keep her species secret, Miss Martian tried mentally attacking Mosura. However, the moment she tried, something stopped her. Her entire mind was flooded with unbearable pain, it felt like she was on fire! Falling to her knees screaming, Megan passed into blissful unconsciousness.
The news of this battle would spread the world over, of the Man of Steel's defeat at the hands of Semiramis, to the Team being treated as nothing more than pests by Mosura. The only good thing was none of the Civilians were coherent enough to hear Mosura reveal their identities.
When Batman arrived only 3 minutes later and saw the knocked out forms of Superman and the Team, he immediately called in the Justice League while taking the Team and Superman to receive medical attention.
Return to Akari's pov.
I honestly, did not expect that to go so well. When Semiramis told me she was the world's greatest poisoner, I didn't expect her to be capable of defeating Superman with a few attacks. I suppose the fact her poison was magical in nature was something the kryptonion didn't expect.
But the Team I expected to be stronger, sure Semiramis handled Kid Flash and Artemis, but were the rest so easy? Or were they just so shaken by my words? I guess Semiramis plan of messing with them mentally payed off.
Of course, this would make the Justice League target Semiramis and me with a lot more force, so perhaps it was time I took a visit to another world soon.
After we returned home, Semiramis sitting on her new throne she apparently made with territory creation (at least she hasn't turned my house into some mini hanging garden).
Oh and of course, my quest rewards!
Quest Complete!
Name: Defeat or Capture.
Requirement: The Team have been sent after you because of Batman's paranoia, settle things peacefully or defeat The Team.
Bonus: Defeat and Humiliate the Team as Mosura.
Reward: 6 Middle Gacha Tokens, Archery Skill Level 1, Small Kryptonite Shard, 10 Levels to Alchemy, Hydrokinesis Spell Level 1, Shapeshifting Skill Level 1, and 10 Levels to Mechanic Skills.

"Heheh! Worth it! So worth it!". Krytonite, the easiest way to deal with Krytonions, even when Superman came to take Mosura down, the moment I pull this out he'll be easy! It will also help if I face any evil Krytonions. Some nice spells, some levels up to skills, and of course, THE GACHA!
Large Green Kryptonite.
A large chunk of green coloured Kryptonite, it weakens Kryptonions by sapping their strength and abilities provided by a Yellow Sun. Humans can be adversely affected by the mineral's radiation as well with long term exposure being disastrous.
Pulling it out to have a better look, and trusting my new semi-divine nature to protect me. I couldn't help but admire the shining green mineral, it produced an energy that I could almost taste. Unknowing to me, my eyes and the cyan markings on my wings started glowing, slowly draining radiation from the Rock.
Blinking quickly, I stored away the Kryptonite. I forgot Mothra could absorb radiation and so could I, no wonder it made me so hungry to look at. Anyway, Quarts please roll the Gacha.
Rolling Gacha X6…
Marvelous Pigments.
A set of different coloured paint, when you complete the painting. The object or terrain becomes a real, non-magical object. Thus painting a door on a wall creates an actual door that can be opened to whatever is beyond.
The Cardboard Box.
A simple cardboard box, wielded by the legendary soldier, Solid Snake. It has an almost supernatural ability to go unnoticed even if someone is hiding inside it.
Mystic Eyes Potion.
A potion that once drunk, will grant the user a random set of anything that can be considered Mystic Eyes (This includes eyes from anime and manga such as the Sharingan, Scarlet Eyes, Eraserhead's Eyes, or Geass).
Sand Sand Devil Fruit.
A Logia type Devil Fruit, allows the user to shift, transform into, and control sand. However the user loses the ability to swim after eating.
Immortal Slaying Scythe: Harpe.
A divine weapon and Noble Phantasm from Greek Mythology. Used to by Perseus to kill the Gorgon, Medusa. A monster-killing holy sword with a shaped into a scythe. Also wielded by Medusa while in the Lancer Class.
-Negates the immortality of Immortals.
-Negates any form of healing other than natural healing.
-Has a magical chain connected to the end, which can extend its length.
Deck of Cards.
A simple deck of cards, good for a card game.
T-the rewaaards! Pulling Harpe from my inventory, I could only stare in awe at my first Noble Phantasm. Semiramis attention was also grabbed by the weapon, probably able to sense the divinity within it.
"I see you're… 'Gacha' has given you a powerful weapon, and something you can use unlike that demonic sword". Holding out her hand, I let her have it to inspect the weapon.
Should I eat the Sand fruit? Or drink the Mystic Eyes potion? Both are powerful, but is getting the power of a Devil fruit worth it? And there's a risk I could get a dangerous set of eyes with the potion.
I think it's probably best to wait on using both of them, maybe level up my alchemy and try doing something with them? I guess it's just best to keep them in my inventory.
Hmmm I think it's time to do some hard-core training in the dungeons, and possibly see if I can perform some kind of ascension with Semiramis!
First, no Akari is not strong enough to man-handle the Justice League and The Team. Semiramis beat Superman by the fact she was a great counter to him, his weakness to magic plus the fact he had no idea of Semiramis abilities basically guaranteed an easy victory.
While Akari/Mosura's words shook the Team so they weren't fighting at 100%, especially after the shock of seeing the invincible Superman taken down.
How do you guys like Akari's villain persona, Mosura? While Akari at her core is a good person, she's still willing to do a few evil things as long as they help in the long run.
Bet none of you expected Harpe as Akari's first Noble Phantasm, but I love Ana and her scythe is just cool! I'm also not sure what Eyes to give Akari or if she'll even drink it, so that's why she hasn't drunk the Mystic Eyes Potions.
I've got to admit something, I'm having trouble designing the Type-Avatars. So I've decided to ask if you guys have any suggestions. The Type-Avatars can take the forms of anything, people, machines, animals, or even eldritch abominations and servants. I'm just not doing something like "Oh hey Type Venus takes the form of Artoria", I'd like something a bit more explained than that.
I will say this, Next chapter will include the reactions of the Justice League, The Light, and a few others from the actions of Mosura. How do I know this? Because I'm on a chapter writing roll and already have started writing the next one, no promises it will be out in the next few days though.
Until next time though, I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter!
