We have an interesting chapter for today, please enjoy.
COMMENTS!
Kolt999: Huh, they are kind of similar aren't they? Tachie's is infinitely worst considering some of the spirits in her Sacred Gear.
Uberch01: When did Tachie say she's going to attack the Vatican? She wants the weapons her family had back, but there are plenty of ways to get those back without attacking the Vatican.
Honestly the cease fire stuff was just stupid, the way it was played out to be a lot worst then it was and then fixed so easily. It obviously wasn't as bad as it was made to seem if peace was so easily achieved.
keybladelight: I think you may be misunderstanding something, if Kriemhild does appear it will be as a Hero Descendent/Reincarnation/whatever, NOT as Heroic Spirit Kriemhild. If I go reincarnation route she may have some memories, but she is not fully Kriemhild.
Tachie doesn't have overwhelming power like Issei, so she'll need tricks to counter. Also the weapons are NOT Noble Phantasms here, they share the same abilities as the Noble Phantasms, but they're just legendary weapons here.
Tachie will be involved in the Excalibur arc, but I won't say any more than that. And again, Pseudo-Servant Muramasa CANNOT appear, a descendent/reincarnation of Muramasa who looks like Shirou is possible, but Heroic Spirit Muramasa WILL NOT APPEAR.
I never said DxD Arthur was a reincarnation of Proto Arthur, I was speaking about if DxD Arthur was a Reincarnation of DxD King Arthur, not Proto Arthur.
Proto-Merlin if she appears the world would have to be changed so she was ALWAYS the Merlin of that world… and honestly I can see it. Lady Avalon is a possibility, but I am leaving that as a mystery.
I've already used Serenity as a character in another fic, so I don't think I'll have her be used here. She may show up but that is a very low chance.
uncleh4voc: Cath Pulag is great, Fou is better. But that does give me an idea, thanks.
IAmJustAndIdiot: What are you talking about? Rhongomyniad is totally just a normal lance.
SolSparda369: Yep, nobody likes when idiots are messing with weapons. I think if anything Clarent would be a demonic sword, but Clarent may have some importance.
Tachie taking Clarent? A possibility. After all the weapon that killed King Arthur, must have some unique properties.
Bear Lord: *Hides the story notes* Perhaps.
The Green Knight huh? I don't know much about him, but perhaps I can use an idea from that.
GREAT GODS IT'S THE RABBIT! RUN FOR YOU LIFES!
Lancelot had magic shields? I've never heard of this but it sounds interesting. Lancelot had a castle huh? And that bromance, you got to respect the bromance! Tachie's secret birth right? That could work well with an idea I have.
ArguableReader: Fate is an amazing series and I suggest fully sitting down to watch it at some point.
.jr: Fate Rhongomyniad is amazing and no matter what fandom it's thrown into, is op. Well besides the universes where everyone can destroy planets.
xbox432: It's sad how few people make human characters who don't use Sacred Gears, one or 2 is fine but the sheer amount I've seen makes them feel a bit overused.
Gareth has high chances but I've not fully decided. Oh that's a good idea for Jack, I may use that. Hassans I may have a little plot in mind, but you'll have to wait. Bazett huh? That is an interesting idea you have there.
Huh, "Monster Descendants/Reincarnates" huh? That is an interesting idea, and bringing in one of my favourite fate characters, Elizabeth? That has high potential. Tamamo, Shuten Doji, and Asterios? Interesting although I feel if Tamamo showed up, she'd be too different from her fate counterpart. Spirits huh, Paul or Lobo… as a dog owner, it is tempting beyond degree for the giant loveable fur ball, especially since I have him in FGO.
Oh that is cruel, beyond cruel. But Issei having to deal with a yandere? A true yandere on the level of Medb or Salome? That's nightmare full for a harem king like him. I don't think Medb will be used for it since I have plans for her, but Salome… you'll have to wait as I need to check if it works with my plans.
The Green Knight, that's a few times people have suggested him. I'll have to look him up and see if he's worth it. Feirefiz? Never heard of him but he sounds interesting.
Ugh honestly I know, it's an annoying issue that I keep trying to fix, yet somehow keep missing.
Thanks for enjoying the fic! I'm fine with people rambling as long as it's positive rambling.
KureijiRyuu (Chapter 1): Mashu is cool, but I honestly felt Tachie would be better here. She's such an underused concept that has so much potential.
KureijiRyuu (Chapter 7): I'm just happy people enjoy my fics, and of course people have preferences for what type of story they enjoy.
ssj3gohan007: AAAH TOO MUCH POSITIVITY! Thanks! I cannot reveal anything of Gilgamesh besides he'll have an appearance. I'm still researching for certain Heroic Spirit Inheritors, making sure the information is as accurate as possible, so I cannot say if Gilgamesh will be a descendent or inheritor.
Olivier pov.
By God, I hate these meetings. Listening to a bunch of priests and zealots go on and on about different plans and plots, I'm a follower of Heaven, but even I think some of these guys are too far.
Such as Wallace, short ugly guy with teary blue eyes and short blond hair. He's constantly going on about 'How we must wipe out the devils' and shit like that. I have no idea how a guy like him keeps getting in on these meetings.
Thankfully Father George keeps these meetings on track, his long brown hair matching well with his brown eyes. His current attire of priestly clothes didn't exactly mix well with the powerful knight I know he was. I'd admit he's one of the few good non corrupt people here, a true champion of righteousness. Ah wait? Was he saying something?
"Olivier Sharpe, may you please inform us of how your mission went?". The calm voice of Father George brought all the different arguments and talking to an end, with everyone's attention turning to me.
"I was given the mission by Lord Palewood, to exterminate a section of the 'Embrace of The Moon' cult, a moon worshipping cult who have been causing issues for multiple factions lately. Because of a lack of any to look after her, I had to bring my apprentice Tachie Kyrielight along. I distracted a large majority of the cult, leaving Tachie to face 6 members". I began my explanation, but Wallace cut me off.
"You left a little girl to face 6 members of a dangerous cult by herself? How very much like you Sharpe". Wallace's insults made me tighten my grip, he didn't give a single flying shit about Tachie, and he just wanted to insult me.
"As I was saying. I cut down the rest of the Cult, but I sensed a large amount of magic where Tachie and the 6 cultists were, I rushed back as fast as I could but was too late to see any of the action. By the time I arrived, Tachie was in a bad condition and I had to give her quick medical attention. By her word, the cultists unsealed some kind of shadow monster and Tachie barley managed to take it down with a mix of fire and holy water, after its defeat the monster turned into black dust that blew away in the wind". My explanation caused many to look at each other and begin discussing, much of it being if such a young girl really defeated the shadow monster. There was also some talk of taking her away from me, but they quickly shut up after a quick glare.
"It seems you've raised quiet a powerful apprentice Olivier, the last living descendent of Galahad. I hope you've not just been forcing her to train constantly?". Father George asked, I considered telling him it was none of his business, but there was no point in causing an argument here.
"Of course not, I've actually had to psychically drag her away from training some time, she defiantly inherited her old man's training drive". My reply caused George to nod, thankfully the meeting left the topic of Tachie after that.
The group spent a few more minutes talking, with me giving my opinion now and again. I just wanted this meeting over and to get Tachie out of here, I know someone will try something if we stay here too long.
Suddenly the sound of explosions and the feeling of magic filled the air, a messenger rushed into the room and people started shouting, we were being attacked? Who in the world was crazy enough to attack the Vatican, but I quickly realized something.
I leapt over the tables and chairs between me and the exit, running as fast as possible. As I ran I ignored the screaming citizens being attacked by people in silver cloaks, monsters summoned by spells and laughing vampires. Normally I'd at least stop to help out the worst of it, however my mind was only on one thing.
'Tachie's out there alone in the middle of this! Goddam it! I should've insisted letting her stay nearby the meeting, please be safe kid!'. Thankfully even in my rush, I always brought Excalibur Nightmare with me. I don't care however holy the Vatican was, I never left without a weapon.
I felt it before I saw it, an overwhelmingly powerful magical aura and a sensation of pure dread. Rolling to the side I barley dodged the blow of a large broadsword, I slashed Excalibur forward and was met with a broadsword blocking my blow. Stepping back to gain some distance, I finally got a good look at the bastard in my way.
It appeared to be some kind of black armoured knight, but he was far larger than almost anyone I've met in my life, I could see nothing of his face. His entire body was covered from head to toe in armour, with the only way to see being a red visor which seemed to glow in an ominous light. The Black Knight also gave off a shadowy mist that seemed to constantly cover his body, while his broadsword had red vein-like lines across it.
This guy, he wasn't an ordinary fighter, I'd almost say he was feral from how he's standing, but he's holding that sword with the grace of a master. Dammit, if this guy's in my way then, I'll take him out!
Using Excalibur Nightmare's illusions, I created 3 copies of myself while turning invisible, the plan was simple, have the 3 copies distracted the black knight while I went in for the kill. At least, that was what I had planned. As the 3 copies surrounded the knight, instead of attacking them, he rushed right towards me!
I managed to block a slash with Excalibur, but the sheer force behind it almost sent me flying, what the hell is this guy made of!? Was this some type of Sacred Gear? He saw right through my illusions and attacked with devastating force, looks like I'll need to pull out some more tricks.
Casting some enchantment spells to increase my durability and speed, I rushed at the knight and tried to pierce him with the tip of my blade. The clank of metal on metal was painful on the ears, but I had long gotten used to this noise. However the attempt to pierce my opponents armour wasn't the goal here, instead it was this. I channelled a lightning spell down Excalibur Nightmare sending it directly into my opponent's armour.
The Black Knight flailed about a bit, I barely managed to leap back to safety. But the knight recovered quickly and rushed towards me swinging, I leapt onto the blade and stabbed my still electrified blade towards the visor of the helmet. But the knight leaned back and I had to jump off his blade, while in the air I readied another spell, however I wouldn't use it on the black knight.
A scream of pain grabbed both mine and the Knight's attention, turning in the direction… and I saw red.
Tachie's pov, a few minutes ago.
Walking about the Vatican really was an experience, the supernatural was just, so obvious here. It actually felt a bit freeing in a way, I was around people like me, people who know of the supernatural and understood it.
I was walking about when I heard the screaming and smelt the smoke. Looking about I saw a bunch of demonic looking beasts rampaging about, who was crazy enough to attack the Vatican!? Wait no, I need to help people!
Summoning forth Aestus Estus, I charged at a black furred dog like creature with horns. I brought down my blade but fur of The Beast had some kind of incredible defence considering how little damage my attack did. The Beast roared and breathed a wave of fire towards me which I avoided by leaping back.
I activated Aurea Poculum, red scales forming along my body with my left eye turning people. I could still only use the negative emotion absorption, of course it was useless as no negative emotions were aimed directly at me. However while I can't absorb negative emotions, there was something else I could absorb, despair. Even if it wasn't aimed at me, I could still absorb despair from people around me.
Feeling my strength increase I leaped into the air above the dog like beast, bringing down the now on fire blade I pierced into the beast's skull. Letting out a final dying whimper, the beast fell down, dead. However I was surprised by something, some type of black dust coming off the dog monster and being absorbed into my body? What in the world?
"Ah, so you've finally found that little feature, you took your time". A sudden voice in my head caused me to freeze, barley reacting in time to block a claw strike from another dog like monster. Why the hell am I hearing Draco's voice outside my dreams?!
'What's going on? Why can I hear you outside my dreams? I thought you could only talk to me there!'. I thought, trying to send this as a message to Draco. I'm not quite sure how telepathy works but I'm hoping just trying to focus my thoughts on Draco and hoping it works.
"Simple, you've finally acquired enough energy for another of my abilities to activate, such delicious despair you're surrounded by, and from the followers of Heaven none the less, how sweet". Draco's reply sent both chills down my spine and excited me, I wanted more power but strengthen a Beast was worrying, I've just got to hope she stays trapped in my Sacred Gear.
'And what is this new ability? It has something to do with the black dust right?'. I asked, I didn't feel any changes after absorbing the black dust. I leapt back from the monster I was currently clashing with, I seem to be doing that a lot lately.
"Indeed, normally that ability would let you absorb souls, however this ability has instead been weakened to absorbing energy from foes you kill. However the energy goes to me, another way to restore my power". Draco explained, okay being honest I'm glad it doesn't absorb souls, I don't think I can sacrifice peoples souls to Draco. But keeping the energy for herself? Guess her main focus is regaining power, not helping me.
However the conversation was abruptly as another dog monster charging towards me, horns ready to pierce, I set Aestus aflame and threw it spinning towards the beast, cleaving through it. Running forward I grabbed the returning Aestus and charged towards another dog like monster, something I noticed was almost all the monsters in this area were the dog like monsters I've been facing this entire time.
Was there some kind of Sacred Gear or magic summoning these guys? Or did someone just capture a bunch and unleash them here? I wanted to spend time figuring it all out, but the growl of beasts and the sound of many footsteps made me ready myself for more combat.
W-what!? Berserker Lancelot? Here? Just what's going on? That's for me to know and you to find out later! I will confirm however, the black knight is not a heroic spirit, is it actually Lancelot or a reincarnation? Well you'll discover that later.
I planned to add another Chaldea omake, however this chapter was already taking too long and I didn't want to make it take longer because of the omake. I will have continuation of the Tachie in Fate/Grand Order omake next chapter thought, so look forward to that.
