Ch 17 New Revelations

Ritsuka and his Servants quickly ran through the alleyway, following the two new people who showed up.

"Preator, can we trust these people?" The Magus turned around and faced the Emperor of Roses.

Ruler of Paris looked at the Saber-face, "Of course, I know one of them well before I died." The Counter Guardian ensures her ally. "He's trustworthy,"

Koyanskaya drops down from the rooftops, joining her master's group. "Master, he's leading us to the base we're stationed at." The Alter Ego informed her master.

"So you know them?" Sita asked, following behind the group.

The Chaldean Secretary looks back at the newest addition to the team. "No, they're new to us as well. That Caster's familiar told us of a secret facility that was once used by the remaining resistance from the Counter Force."

"Now it serves as our base of operations," Ruler stated continuing after the pink-haired Fox.

"Whatever it is, I'm just glad we're able to have a proper base instead of an abandoned theater," Ritsuka commented, seeing that the two made a right turn.

They all turn right, following closely behind them. "Preator, I don't mind the theater. I feel like I'm back at Chaldea's theater," Nero commented. "I can sing my heart out,"

Koyanskaya scoffs, remembering the many concerts that the Emperor of Roses puts on. "If singing badly in an abandoned theater is worth more than a new base, then I rather take the latter." The Fox stated, not wanting to hear her singing.

"I'm just stating my opinion, Fox." Nero glared at Chaldea's Secretary.

Sita turns to the intersection in the alley, sensing two familiar Spirit Origins. "Master, a few more people are coming that way!" The Archer points to the other end of the alley.

Ritsuka looks over to the intersection, seeing people coming over to them.

Charlie and Xu Fu ran out of the darkness, meeting up with the director of Chaldea. "Ritsuka!" The former Servant greeted his Grandson.

"Charlie, Xu Fu, how's the scouting?" Ritsuka asked his Grandfather and the Alter Ego.

The King of Franks smirks, turning his head behind him. "Yeah, we found a few allies and a new one."

Ritsuka and the others looked at the shadows, seeing Ladybug, Lancelot, and a new face coming towards them.

Ladybug huffs, looking up and smiling. "Ritsuka! Everyone, it's good to see you all right," The Hero of Creation greeted her allies, "Is Chat Noir with you?"

"No, we didn't. You're the only one that we met up with," Ritsuka explains to the bluenette Hero. "We didn't encounter Moon Cancer or Chat Noir,"

"I-I see," Ladybug looks down, worried for her Partner.

"Ladybug, don't worry. We'll find him when the opportunity arises." Charlie ensures the young Hero,

Suddenly the Snake-themed Hero leaps down from the rooftop with the light brown Archer. "There's no time for small talk, by now Berserker of the Void sent a distress signal to the Imperial Palace." The teal-haired Hero state, "In a short few minutes this place will be surrounded,"

"Hold on, what about Archer and Ruler?" Ruler of Paris asked the others.

"I-I can set up another beacon so those two can find us." Xu Fu explains to the Counter Guardian, "So you don't need to worry about them finding us,"

The Counter Guardian sighs, relieved that the new Servant has a plan for this. "That's good,"

"Anyways, this way to the base," The teal-haired Hero motions to the end of the alleyway.

After running through the alley, they eventually made it to a dead-end. "There's nothing here," Violet stated, searching around the area.

"We have to hide it," Archer of the Resistance explains to the Chaldeans. "Our allies were discovered by the Alter Ego of White, so we have our Collaborator cast an illusion charm around this area." The Servant from the Counter Force explains,

"I see, smart move but risky," Charlie commented,

The teal-haired Hero dusted off the metallic brick wall and pressed on the Spell Circle. "This way everyone." He steps back for the entrance opened.

The metallic wall pushed back before forming a ramp. Lights turned on at the floorings, guiding them inside. "Wow, this is like Olympus's buildings," Ritsuka commented.

"A futuristic entrance if I saw one," Ladybug added, turning to her allies entering the entrance.

"Caster has already found some of your allies already, they are waiting for you all in the base." Archer of Resistance explains, motioning to the underground path,

"It's our group, Fujimaru," Koyanskaya stated, indicating that it was them who encountered the Caster of the Sakura Labyrinth.

Ritsuka smiles, knowing what she means. "Alright, let's go."

With that, the Chaldeans followed the Resistance Servants into the underground path.

At the surface Moriarty jumps back, adjusting his Staff after being in combat. He huffs looking at the Servant of the Eternal Empire. "Well, no wonder everyone had a hard time dealing with you." The Crime Lord smirks,

Akutagawa steps forward, his tailcoat was everywhere. "So, you are a Chaldean Servant." He observes, "I'm surprised that your master isn't with you. I guess your master is the one leading the attack against Berserker of the Void."

"A Berserker who's thinking straight, a rare sight to meet," Moriarty commented on his in-tacked mindset.

The Berserker of the Eternal Empire stares at the former Apostle of the Alien World. "It doesn't matter what my mindset is, all that matters is that I bring in your master." Akutagawa ignores the Ruler's compliment.

'Seems like I spoke too soon,' Moriarty thought to himself. He stops in his tracks, quickly jumping away from a strike from Akutagawa.

Moriarty landed, seeing where he once stood now replaced a ravaged dog head. He watches as he took out the head from the crater he made.

"W-Well, that was close." The Ruler Servant commented, nearly getting chomped by the hound head,

"Now, surrender, and I promise you a quick death, Chaldean Servant." The black-haired Servant ordered the Ruler Servant.

Moriarty gave an evil smirk, eyeing the Inquisitor of the Empire. "My apologies, but I have no intentions of surrendering." The Ruler confidently says to the enemy.

Akutagawa remains expressionless at the Crime Lord's statement. "Then you'll die, painfully." The Berserker snaps his finger, letting his Mystic Code rush at him.

The Crime Lord looked up at the skies. "Archer, now!"

The black-haired Inquisitor looked up, seeing many arrows raining down on him. "Ngh!" He acted quickly, pulling back his Mystic Code and forming a shield above him.

The arrows struck the Berserker's shield, giving Moriarty the chance to escape.

Akutagawa growls, seeing the Ruler going into his Astral form to escape. "He escaped," He growls, this close in

The Berserker looked behind him, seeing the Enemy Programs and other Empire Forces coming over to them.

"Lord Berserker! We have arrived," The Attack Program reported to the famous Author.

Akutagawa recalls his Mystic Code, looking at the Attack Program. "Search the area, they will be back." He stated,

"Sir!" The army disburses, spreading across the Void Territory.

In an alley, Moriarty materialized from his Astral form walking over to the red-haired Archer. "A bit late on the timing there, Archer of Kosla." The Crime Lord stated.

Archer chuckles, looking at the Ruler Servant. "Sorry, I have to take care of my own set of enemies that I encountered." He stated before looking at the flashing lights behind the buildings.

"I think taking out the Berserker of the Void failed," The Archer noted,

Moriarty nodded, agreeing with the Counter Force Servant. "Indeed, master made the tactical decision to retreat." The Crime Lord smiles, seeing that his older self had taught him well.

Archer of Kosla nodded before sensing a beacon with their master's Magical Energy. "Master has set up another beacon," He informed the Crime Lord.

"Yes, I do sense it. Let's regroup with them, Archer." The Ruler stated, seeing the red-haired Archer agree with his suggestion,

Patricius: The Eternal Empire, Underground Facility Five

Ladybug was in awe at the underground Facility, it was like one of the rooms in the Le Grand Paris's Imperial Suite. However, it's more…futurity. "So this is our base?"

"Seems so, it's a lot like the Underground Facility we used back in Olympus." Ritsuka walks back inside the underground base, following him was Archer of Kosla and Moriarty after returning from their decoy mission.

"Ah, similar to the base of Olympus…wait OLYMPUS!?" Ladybug's eyes widen, hearing the home of the Greek Gods.

Koyanskaya looks at the young Hero among them, hearing her shock. "Oh, that's right, you haven't known the hidden History of the World." The Alter Ego looks over to her master, "Oi, Fujimaru, I think you said something surprising to Marinette."

Ritsuka's Saphire eyes looked at the Hero of Creation, "Ah, I didn't really delve into this topic with you yet." He cleared his throat, finding which is the simpler explanation to say to Ladybug.

"Just that they're nanomachines produced by the Machine Olympian Gods." Ladybug commented, remembering their confrontation with Marie Alter.

"Well, to make it short. In order to save my World, we have to go to Olympus where we have to defeat the Olympians." Ritsuka explains to the young Hero. "In short, we have Hades's domain or the understructure of Olympus as a base."

Ladybug was still shocked that her friend could visit the Greek Gods' home. "You never ceased to be amazing, Ritsuka."

"Indeed, master has been to many places that should be impossible for normal Humans." The two masters looked down at the small hallway. From the dim-light hallway was a red-armored and black-haired man making his way to the center of the base.

"Rider, I'm happy you're safe." Ritsuka greeted Constantine appearing out of the blue.

Constantine inclined his head to his master and ally. "I as well, master. It pleases us that you are safe too." The Emperor greeted his master back.

"Us? You mean Saber is here too?" Ladybug asked the Rider Servant.

Sita, now sitting on the circle couch in the middle of the base tensed upon hearing her Husband's Class name.

Archer of Kosla looked at the red-haired Queen. He leans forward to his fellow Archer and whispers in her ears, "(Archer, don't worry. As long as I'm close to you, your true identity will not be detected.)" He ensures his ally.

"Thank you, Archer." Sita smiles at her close ally.

"Master, thank the Gods that you're all right." Both the red-haired Archers turn to a familiar face coming over.

Ritsuka and Ladybug smile seeing the King of Kosla's face. "Saber, you're here too." The bluenette was happy that almost all of their allies are all here.

"Hello to you, Ladybug. Berserker did well in protecting you during our separation." Rama smiles at the Hero of Creation. He looks at Lancelot, guarding the entrance of their new base, "Despite his tendency of going out on his own and attacking any enemy,"

The Magus chuckles, knowing what the Indian Hero means. "Yeah, you're right on that," Ritsuka commented.

Ladybug looks at Lancelot, seeing what they mean. "I've seen firsthand what you two mean," The bluenette Hero added, giving a small smile.

Rama chuckles before looking at the new Servants, his eyes laid on the two Archers sitting on the couches. "Brother? Sister? You were Summoned to this Lostbelt!?" The King of Kosla was surprised to see two members of his family here in this World.

Archer of Kosla smiles, seeing Rama before him. "Hello, Lord Brother. Seems like fate has brought us together to save Humanity," He greeted his older Brother.

"Fate does work in mysterious ways," Rama looks at Sita who stood up quickly. He opens his mouth only to be interrupted by her,

"Lord Brother-in-law, it's an honor to see you again." Sita quickly acted what her Sister acted back when they were alive,

Rama blinks his eyes before rubbing them. "Oh, sorry. I thought you were your Sister for a second there," He stated, being tricked by Archer's Noble Phantasm.

Archer of Kosla chuckles, grabbing onto Sita's shoulders. "Nope, this is my Wife, Lord Brother. She's also your Sister-in-law." He fibbed to the red-haired King.

"I see, so the curse is still in effect." Rama sighs before smiling at his Siblings. "At least I know you all are here to help my master." The Saber Servant stated to his Siblings.

Sita gave a soft smile at her Husband, "We're looking forward to working with you, Lord Brother." She said.

Charlie looked at Nero standing next to him. "Seems like we're getting a lot of people who know each other, right Saber?" The former King asked the Emperor.

"Umu, you are correct, Charlie." Nero nodded before turning to the light brown-haired Archer speaking to Viperion. "I too feel like I have met the Archer there before. Like-"

"We met in a different World at a different time?" Charlie asked, having the same feeling as the Red Saber.

Nero nodded and couldn't help but look at the Archer of Resistance. "Umu…"

Soon Caster of the Sakura Labyrinth's Familiar flew to the center of the room. He cleared his throat, gaining the attention of everyone, "Now that we have some breathing room, I can properly introduce the opposing force against the Eternal Empire."

Viperion and the Archer of the Resistance step forward. The Hero of the Second Chance cleared his throat, "A-Ahem, hello everyone. I'm Viperion or Moon Cancer, one of the leaders of what's left of the Resistance."

"Speaking of the Resistance, where's Bunnyx? I thought she would be here with the other Servants." Ladybug asked, noticing that the Living Hero they met was not in the base.

Viperion sighs, looking at the young Leader. "Well, once your Servants arrived at this abandoned Facility, she went back to the main one to meet her Family." The Living Hero explains to the Chaldeans.

"She was really worried for them, but she will come back when everything is taken care of." The light-brown Archer added, already spoken to her. "Oh, forgive me. I am a former Caster and now the Archer of the Resistance."

"I see, understandable that she wants to check her Family's safety," Ladybug commented until she caught the small information Viperion revealed. "Wait, what's left of the Resistance?"

Moriarty sat down on the couch, "Ladybug, there was an army of Servants from the Counter Force that stood against the Empire." He explains to the young Hero before him.

Ritsuka nodded, "Archer of Kosla and Archer are the few survivors here from the attack that wiped every Servant from the face of the Earth."

Ladybug paled, hearing an army of Heroes was wiped out in a single attack. "T-That's…that's…"

"I know, but there's nothing we can do about it now." Ritsuka looks at the Resistance members, waiting for them to continue.

"Though there are only a few Servants left in this cursed City," Viperion growls before shaking his head. "There are some people who won't give in to this new way of life; me included,"

"Why?" The young bluenette Hero asked the adult version of someone she knows.

Viperion looked at Ladybug and then the Ruler of Paris. "Because we were inspired to defend our old home from a person who won't give up." He smiles, reminiscing about the old days of Superheroes. "That's what leads us to come together and rebel."

"With the spirit of rebellion still lit, I assisted in their formation by gathering the Heroes to join them." The Vermillion Bird butted in, wanting to be included. "That's the Human heart for you, once they put something in mind they won't give up."

Koyanskaya scoffs, hearing the sentiment. "Well, most Humans you mean."

Viperion cleared his throat, knowing what she meant. "Yes, there are a few out there who gave up and drink to cope,"

"In any case, thank you for helping us back there, Viperion," Charlie said, thanking the Living Hero for their assistance.

"Since you all are against the Eternal Empire, it's only natural for us rebels to help each other." The teal-haired Hero stated, "For now, rest up. There's a lot of heat now thanks to your attempts to eliminate the Berserker of the Void, master of Chaldea."

Ritsuka chuckles, scratching the back of his head. "Yeah, sorry about that." He apologized to the Hero of the Second Chance.

Archer of the Resistance waved his hand, "It's fine, we were planning to strike her first seeing she is the weakest out of the four Inquisitors,"

"Yes, we can discuss our plans later on with everyone later," Viperion informed the Chaldeans, indicating that this was the time to rest up. "For now, explore your new base."

"Thank you, Viperion, Archer." Ritsuka thanked them at everyone's behest.

Everyone took the Resistance member's advice and rested before their second attempt in eliminating Liz Void.

Ruler of Paris stood in the dark hallway leading to the many rooms for people to rest in. Some Servants made use of that and went inside; however, she was there for another reason.

"Mari-"

"Viperion," Ruler turns around, seeing her ally standing behind her. "I go by Ruler now, please call me that from now on,"

Viperion frowns, seeing that his friend and ex-girlfriend was different from before. "M-Ruler, I-I…" He gulps, unsure what to say to her.

The bluenette Servant smiles, placing her hand on her friend. "It's good to see you doing well, my friend." The Counter Guardian said, happy to see him alive.

"I got so many things to say to you," Viperion said to his former leader. "But…I'm sorry that I-"

"Luka, it's not your fault that things ended like this." Ruler stated, not wanting him to blame himself on that day. "It was my failed intuition that I didn't realize the Eternal Empire was a trap."

Viperion shook his head, looking at the Counter Guardian. "No, it's not your fault either. You save everyone with your Lucky Charm and gave us a second chance to fight against the Empire." He stated. "Only if…only if your Children could come and see you again."

"Speaking of my Children, how are they?" Ruler asked, wanting to know how they were holding up.

The Moon Cancer chuckles, "Well, Emma and Hugo missed you dearly and for Louis…well,"

"Well?"

"He's doing his best leading the Resistance. His Servant is helping him along with the other leaders." The Hero explains what was happening with the ongoings of Ruler's Children.

Ruler of Paris paused, hearing something that was a bit concerning. "Wait, you mean to say that Louis is a master? And that he has Summoned a Servant on his own?" She asked, concerned for Son.

Viperion chuckles, looking up at the bluenette. "Well, he did get that Miraculous side from you." The teal-haired man stated, "And by looks of it, your younger self has Command Seals too-"

"No, that's not what I'm saying Viperion." The bluenette stated, now realizing what this mean.

The Hero of the Second Chance blinks, unsure of what she was concerned about. "I don't get it. Isn't that a good thing that Louis is a-"

"What you said, Viperion just helped me realize something." Ruler of Paris stated, holding her forehead at the new information. "Farfalla, Machiavelli, Felix de Grahm Vanily, my younger self, Adrien Agreste, Louis Agreste, and my master….Seven people with Command Seals…"

Viperion's eyes widen, catching up with what Ruler was saying. "Seven masters in total,"

Ruler looked up at her friend. "The Holy Grail War is still ongoing, despite a Holy Grail present."

"We have to tell everyone,"

Both Viperion and Ladybug went back to the lobby of their base, informing everyone of what they suspected.
