Jaune and Penny were roaming around Mantle. It was their first date together. Jaune had been on multiple dates before.
Penny was feeling the cold wind on her face for the first time. It felt…refreshing? She didn't know because it is the first time, she has felt such sensations.
"This is wonderful," said Penny. She had her hands spread out to feel the air throughout her body. "Thank you for giving me such an opportunity to feel these kinds of sensations".
Jaune looked and smiled at Penny.
"I'm happy to do so, Penny," said Jaune. "I'm a man of my word. If I make a promise, I do what I can to fulfill it".
Penny gave Jaune a smile he would never forget. It was the most innocent smile a person can make. A joyous smile for a joyous occasion. As simple as the smile was, it was unforgettable.
"Your smile," said Jaune. He caressed Penny's cheeks. "It is the smile I want to give to those that are important to me. A simple, but utterly unforgettable".
Penny liked Jaune's touch. It feels as if she would be okay no matter what happens.
Jaune and Penny continued their walk.
The date may be a simple walk as they enjoyed each other's company, but Penny and Jaune loved every second of it.
…
A few days later…
Finally!
Yang and the others have been waiting for this day.
The day they get to learn to use magic!
"Hell, yeah!" exclaimed Yang. She was pumped up! "This is what I'm talking about!".
"You're going to love this, Yang," said Jaune. He took out a vial from his Inventory. He gave one to everyone, except for Willow. She had no use for it. "This is the Potion of Gluttony".
Jaune was able to create a potion version of the Pills of Gluttony. However, it is not of the same quality. His version only lasts thirty minutes and can only be taken three times. But it is enough.
"Jaune? How come you didn't give my mother her potion?" asked Weiss. She was curious. "You aren't excluding her, are you?".
Jaune chuckled.
"No, Weiss. I am not," said Jaune. He then explained. "She doesn't need it. Trust me".
Willow already knew. Jaune explained it to her before. She was now connected with him. She can use True Magic.
"Now, the moment you all drink the potion, you have thirty minutes to kill as much Grimm as you can," said Jaune. He saw the look of confusion on everyone's faces. "The more Grimm you kill, the more magic you will gain. I suggest you drink it when you find a large horde of Grimm. To make it even better, I plan to send you all to Mt Glenn, where it is brimming with Grimm".
They didn't know how killing Grimm would allow them to gain magic, but they believed Jaune. He has never led them astray.
Oh, and Penny was within the group. She was entrusted to Jaune.
Pietro said he would deal with Ironwood.
Jaune only took Penny's soul out to give it a flesh and blood. Her robotic body was still there in Mantle.
Jaune knew that there was going to be an issue with the military once Pietro sends the former body of Penny back to the Atlas Military site.
"Penny. Are you sure that you are combat-ready?" asked Jaune. He worries for her. It hasn't been long since she has gotten flesh and blood. It was going to be different from her former body. "I don't mind if you want to sit this one out until a later date".
"Nonsense boyfriend Jaune," said Penny. She smiled and gave a confident look. "I am combat-ready!".
Jaune sighed. Penny would be Penny.
"Alright then," said Jaune. He opened a portal to Mt Glenn and let everyone let loose. "It's now up to you to kill as much Grimm as you can. Again, I suggest you look for a large horde before drinking the potions. The next time you want to drink the potion again, you will have to complete a task I will assign to you. Until you complete it, I won't give you one".
Everyone nodded and they got to work.
"Wait! Wait! Wait!" said Yang. She just heard something scandalous. Albeit, Jaune has many girlfriends. "Since when did you and Penny get together? And isn't she, you know?".
"First of all, Penny is human, I don't know what you're talking about," said Jaune. He feigned ignorance. "Secondly, Penny and I got together a few days ago. Willow and I visited Mantle since I haven't seen Penny in a while".
Haruhime and Pyrrha growled. Growled for real. They were angry at themselves for taking long to confess their feelings for Jaune. Meanwhile, others are getting together with the man they love. No! They won't stand for this!
Once they were done with their Grimm killing spree, they were going to pull Jaune aside and tell him how they feel!
…
A few hours later…
Jaune smiled. The Potion of Gluttony was a wonderful item. Not only does it cause the Grimm to be culled, but it also gives the person that drinks it the dead Grimm's magic, strength, and other stats.
"Well, would you look at that," said Willow. Mt Glenn has been a huge issue before, but now? Not so much after all the killing that RWBY, HNPR, Winter, Whitely, Penny, and Glynda have done. "In no time at all, the Grimm population of Mt Glenn would be nil".
"Isn't that great?" said Jaune. He was smiling. "This way, they have achievements before they even became a full-fledged Huntsman and Huntresses. I made a recording of all their kills, that way, it would be a lot easier for them to get their licenses. Even in the event, they do something against a council member, they have evidence of their capabilities. Their skills would be unquestionable".
"You seem to have a dislike for the councils," said Willow. This isn't the first time Jaune showed this side of himself. "Did something happen?".
"No," said Jaune. He shook his head. If they did something to him or his family and friends, they would no longer be of this world. "I merely hate their attitudes. They are meant to help the people of Vale, not themselves".
"That's understandable," said Willow. She knew Jaune quite well. "How come you haven't done anything about it?".
"I have," said Jaune. He smirked at Willow. "It is only a matter of time before all their crimes are exposed".
Willow sighed. Of course, Jaune already had something in place. He wouldn't leave things as is he can do something about it.
…
A few more hours later…
Jaune looked at the exhausted people in front of him. They went overboard and got rid of all the Grimm on Mt Glenn.
"You all do know that I said the potion only lasts for thirty minutes, right?" said Jaune. He looked at everyone's shocked expression. "You all need to be better listeners. I told you, the moment you all drink the potion, you have thirty minutes to kill as much Grimm as you can. Thirty minutes, no more no less. Well, I would still like to congratulate all of you for wiping out the Grimm of Mt Glenn. I'm sure the council of Vale would be happy".
Everyone had a skeptical look. The council would not be happy at all. It would show that they are incompetent as they have not done anything for Mt Glenn in years. Yet, a few children were able to do what they should have been doing. They won't be happy. That's politics for you.
"Since you all had your fun, it is time for the boring part," said Jaune. He looked at Haruhime. "Haru, you don't have to participate in this part of the exercise since you already have access to magic".
Haruhime nodded and stood beside Jaune.
Jaune looked at his friends and spoke.
"Now, all of you need to sit down in a cross leg and feel the new energy flowing within you," said Jaune. He showed them how to do so. "You can use your semblance as a catalyst to increase the speed of your control over it. But that's for later. You need to learn to feel for it first".
The people of other Remnant were able to achieve quick usage of magic since they had no time to learn. They needed to adapt right away since they are in a war-torn world.
As for the people in Jaune's world, that's another story. They've never felt the pressure of war. Except for Weiss, Willow, Winter, and Whitley. However, even they had him and knew he wouldn't allow anything to happen to them.
…
The following day…
Progress was slow but effective.
The first person to feel the flow of magic within them is Ruby. It was not a surprise since she has Silver Eyes. It was magic.
The second person to feel the flow of magic was Glynda. This was a surprise. But a welcome one.
The third was Nora. She was the one that Jaune thought would be the second person to feel the flow of magic. However, the surprising part was she already could use her semblance with her magic, similar to her counterpart. She is incredible. Jaune was impressed.
The fourth person to feel the flow of magic was Winter and Weiss, and Whitley. The Schnee family all accessed it at the same time. That's not a surprise due to their hereditary semblance. The magic caused their semblance to be much more potent than before. The downside is their control. They must learn to control their semblance once more.
The fifth person to feel the flow of magic was Pyrrha. Due to her not using her semblance to the fullest before meeting Jaune, she lacked the connection to it, unlike the others.
The sixth person to feel the flow of magic is Ren. He may be at the bottom of those who felt the flow of magic, but he has the best control among them.
The last person to feel the flow of magic was Penny. There were many reasons. One, Penny was only getting used to being human. Two, she hasn't had her semblance unlocked, unlike the others, as one's semblance can help feel the flow of magic. Three, Penny had the lowest magical energy due to her not being able to perform her move set when she was a synthetic human. Even with the new telekinetic weapons that Jaune gave her that mimicked her old weapon, it was not enough. But you know what? Penny didn't mind it since Jaune was giving her more attention than the others. She knows that it is quite selfish of her, but she wanted to feel close to him.
"Okay! Since you all now have the feel for magic, it is time to learn to use it," said Jaune. He sent everyone into the Mirror Dimension. It was safer there. "I assume you all remember this place? If you don't, this is the Mirror Dimension. Here, you can practice how to wield magic without affecting the real world. In the future, I will teach you all how to make your portal to the Mirror Dimension".
The Mirror Dimension was only accessible to the people with a Sling Ring. Jaune would have to make a Sling Ring for everyone. They weren't like him who could access it without a Sling Ring.
"The first magic I will teach you all is the same spell I thought Haruhime," said Jaune. He then showed them the first four spells. "[Divine Regeneration of the Vermillion Bird], [Descent of the Lightning Dragon], [Great Barrier of the Black Turtle], [Super Strength of the White Tiger]".
Ruby raised her hands. She had a question.
"Uhm…? Jaune? Why do we need the [Divine Regeneration of the Vermillion Bird], [Great Barrier of the Black Turtle], [Super Strength of the White Tiger]?" asked Ruby. "Aura already provides us with such abilities".
Jaune laughed. Yes, Aura did give them strength enhancements, but not at the level of his self-made magic.
Jaune called Ruby to come to him. He whispered the spell for [Super Strength of the White Tiger]. This was a cheat code of sorts. It was power bestowment. Ruby would not need the training to use [Super Strength of the White Tiger]. This is amazing, but Jaune wanted them to work for their power, not handed to them.
"Now, Ruby," said Jaune. He pointed at a location. "I want you to do a simple punching motion as you activate the magic, I bestowed upon you. Once you do, you'll know why I wanted to teach you all how to use four of my Divine Magic Spells".
Ruby nodded, face the location Jaune pointed, and did a punching motion.
Since Jaune did not tell her to regulate the amount of magic energy to use, she used as much as she could.
Ruby, with a single punch, decimated an entire mountain. Which, the force of her punch continued to travel even further.
"Damn! Ruby! I didn't know you had it in you," exclaimed Yang. She saw the destruction that her sister caused. Evens she has done no such thing before. "I'm pumped up! I want to learn that magic!".
With said magic, Yang would be able to punch with so much more force.
