Author's Note
So there's gonna be two authors notes one here and one at the end and it's only going to be for this first chapter. So I've actually been wanting to make a smutty harem fanfic for Re:Zero for a while since the amount there is less than how many fingers I have in one hand, and I have all 5 fingers! It's criminal how there isn't an abundance of harem lemons in Re:Zero with the amount of gorgeous women in it. So I'm helping by adding one on that small list.
For those of you who aren't familiar with me I am a fairly new writer when it comes to making fanfiction. When it comes to story and plot don't expect great things from me. I only wrote one fanfic and it's very recent with only 2 chapters. I had fun writing it and plan to do more stories but be aware my stories are going to be about lemons and smut. If you want a good story or plot you're in the wrong place as I don't believe I have what it takes to make a good one.
This story starts off in the second season when Subaru was in the Witch's Tea Party with all the Witch's present. And the specific part when Subaru starts breaking down in tears when he said he wasn't able to save Rem. There's unfortunately no 'real' smut in this chapter as I like to set things up with the first chapter.
Once again I'm still fairly new once it comes to writing so I suggest to not have too high of expectations from me. If there's any grammatical errors let me know so I can fix them as I have no one to proofread my stories except me. With that out of the way let's get on with the show!

Re:Start at Zero
At a Witch's Tea Party
"I love you" said a silver haired lady dressed in dark clothing with a black veil on her head. She kneels down to a black haired boy who was crouched down, his hands grabbing the both sides of his head as he seemed to be crying.
"Stop it" Subaru not wanting to hear what the Witch of Envy has to say, hating the amount of times she said those exact words to him. "It's because you gave me everything." She starts to bring her arms up, reaching towards as if hoping to embrace him. "That's why I.."
"STOP IT!" Subaru screamed. Stopping Satella from reaching him. There was a tanned little girl with green hair who walked closer to said boy, she was no ordinary girl as she was the Witch of Pride named Typhon. She wore a white dress with blue frails at the end of it with a blue crown made of flowers on her head. Once close enough she tilted her head to get a better look. "Baru?" She looks at the boy only to see his mouth move and see blood coming out of his lips. "Ah, that is indeed one option, Natsuki Subaru." A white haired lady with a black clothing, this woman was the Witch of Greed called Echidna.
Subaru coughed out a large amount of blood before he fell onto the ground now laying at his side as he started dying. "His tongue.." A blonde lady who had her hair tied in a ponytail was registering what was happening. This busty beauty wore a blue dress with a white cloak over it. This gorgeous woman held the title of the Witch of Pride, her name was Minerva. "You complete Moron!" She runs towards him with tears in her eyes, her fist ready to punch the young boy, to heal him of course. She swung her fist at Subaru, however before the fist could reach him Typhon just in front to block the hit. The impact caused Typhon to be sent flying away, but Minerva's arm started to crumble and fall apart. "This'll be a piece of cake!" Typhon starts to get up from Minerva's punch. "Stay out of the way, Typhon!"
"Baru made his own choice! You stay out of the way, Nerva!" Typhon retorted, letting Subaru follow through the decision he made. "I will not allow self-harm, suicide, or murder in my presence!?
*Sigh*
Before Minerva could make another move a very sexy lady who was laying on the floor intervened and made Minerva fall on the floor leaving a crater underneath her. One could only presume it was from her Authority that allowed her to do that. This lady with a dark shade of magenta hair who also dressed in black clothing which showed her amazing curves, this was the Witch of Sloth whose name was "Sekhmet…" Minerva could only say her name as she was unable to move because of her power. "Emotionally I'm on the boy's side , too. And.. I'm on Typhon's side too".
A girl who had grey hair that tied into two tails one on each side of her hair, was chained up in a very unique black coffin with leggings on the bottom of the coffin which was standing up with legs that could be resembled from one of a spider. "Well I can understand what you guys are saying, I don't want Subaru to die since you made some claims I would like to see him try to accomplish" This was the Witch of Gluttony who is called Daphne. She had on a tight skin suit which was black all over with purple outlines and white area from the chest down to her stomach. Said clothing left very little to the imagination of her body curves.
With this the Witches Daphne, Minerva, Sekhmet, and Typhon started to fight with each other with the goal of either to stop or allow Subaru to die. While Echidna just stands by to watch in curiosity. Satella kneels down to the dying Subaru who was dying "Why haven't you realized that you should be included among the ones you wish to save? It should be obvious" Satella not knowing what she should do, her beloved was dying, for not being able to withstand all the suffering he's received all this time. A crazy idea had then popped up in her head, however would that even work? He was in this state because he couldn't save the person he cared for. He viewed himself powerless even with the Return by Death ability. What if he had another?
Satella looked up, Echidna couldn't be trusted as she had ulterior motives with Subaru. Four of the other witches were engaged in battle….. all but one. "Carmilla". A pretty pink haired girl with a long green scarf around her neck, a pink dress could be seen under her white robe. Carmilla came towards Satella with the dying Subaru down next to her. "I-Is there something you w-want…" Carmilla was a bit perplexed on what to do in the situation, she was one of the people that wanted to not let Subaru die. She was going to use Faceless mask to let Subaru hear the words from his loved ones to try and respark his will to live. "I need to request something from you, please" Carmilla listened to what she had to say and was stunned from what she heard. Was Satella even capable of doing that? Why would she even "He's suffering because he couldn't save the one called Rem. I'm doing this so he can get the chance and prepare himself more since he now knows what's coming." Carmilla listened but isn't understanding what she wants from her, why tell her this. She has no idea how to help her do that. "Umm, okay. But what do you need from me?"
Satella couldn't believe what she was going to request, if they went through with this Subaru would without a doubt have women lusting over him. However Subaru's happiness and him not being in a depressed state was more important than her envy. She proceeds to tell Carmilla her request. However another witch with white hair was no longer watching the witches fight, now listening to the conversation of the two witches by the still dying Subaru. A wide mischievous smile adorns her face.
Everything was becoming hazy for Subaru, he could only faintly hear and comprehend what was going on around him. All he could gather was that for some reason some of the Witches were fighting as Echidna just watched. Satella was saying something to him but couldn't make out what, not that he cared what she had to say. Then Carmilla came over and was discussing something frantically with Satella. What happened next was confusing to Subaru, Carmilla put her arms on his chest and a glowing pink light appeared. His body felt strange, how soon after the light appeared it vanished. She didn't heal him so he's not sure what happened.
Next things really got out of control when Echidna came over and reached over to Subaru, Carmilla and tried to intervene but Echidna got through. Satella didn't try to stop her as she was busy holding up Subaru, bringing him up to hug him. "I'm so sorry you suffered through so much. This time you'll be able to get more allies to help you, people that you'll be able to rely on." This was what Subaru was able to hear, not until Echidna grabbed a hold of Subaru, Satella trying to make Echidna to let go. Satella was shouting at her while all Echidna did was smile. Subaru noticed another strange thing in his body, what were these witches doing to him he thought. His train of thought was interrupted as everything was starting to go black. Subaru was dying, the last thing he saw was Satella attacking Echidna while Echidna had a wicked smile on her face this entire time. And then everything turned black. Natsuki Subaru had died.
Slowly opening his eyes, he looked around him trying to figure out where he was at. He stopped and realized he's standing at the same place he first entered this world?! 'Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait! There's no way this is happening, I must've just gotten transported here. My checkpoint was in the trials with Emilia. There's no way I got everything reset!' Subaru started getting really confused of the situation he was in, trying to think of a logical explanation. He had both arms clutching his head while thinking. That's when he noticed something, he had the convenience store bag with his Ramen and Chips inside, the same chips Rom ate way back.
'I'm really back at the beginning...' The streets were full and people of the kingdom went about they're merry way, glancing at Subaru as they walked by as he was just staying still in the middle of the walkway with a face that seemed extremely conflicted. This happened for a few moments before all of a sudden "Bwa...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Subara's laughter echoed through the streets, people stopped and looked at the young man from his sudden outburst, curious as he was laughing like a madman.
After a while he stopped laughing, the people continued on with their day but sent him concerned looks as he walked by. Subaru was, well. Subaru didn't know how he was. On one side he could retry everything again, all the mistakes he did in the past he couldn't rewrite. He didn't have to make a fool of himself in the Royal Capital, he didn't have to show that pathetic side of him to Emilia when they came back from the Royal Capital. Most importantly, he could save Rem. However it wasn't all good, he'd have to fight against Elsa again, convince Rem to not kill him and save Arlem village, the White Whale Siege, but most of all he would have to go against the most despicable man of all, Petelgeuse Romanee-Conti. However if it meant he could save Rem it would be worth it.
"Excuse me, is something troubling you?" Subaru looked to who was speaking to him and was shocked at who popped up. Here stood a man with white clothes befitting a noble, a black shirt underneath and a sword on his waist that had a gold hilt with a white and gold scabbard. 'Reinhard?!' Subaru was going to greet him but remembered he doesn't actually have a connection with this man anymore. To Reinhard, Subaru was just a random citizen. All connections that Subaru had he would need to regain. However he felt extremely lucky that he found Reinhard, or rather he found Subaru. The main reason they were able to overcome the Elsa ordeal was because Reinhard was there.
"What makes you think there's a problem?" Subaru was confused why Reinhard confronted him though as the last time he encountered him was because he screamed for the guards when the trio alley muggers came after him. The red haired man smiled "Well at first I was gonna request if you could move out the walkway since you were standing still blacking people's path" Subaru face got a bit red as he was just realizing he we in a busy place and was just standing there, also he was laughing like lunatic earlier. "AGH How stupid am I, that's so embarassing. Stupid Stupid Stupid!' His inner monologue was interrupted when Reinhard continued "However before I could ask that you had a very troubling look on your face. If there's something I could help with I would be glad to be of assistance"
Subaru could only look blankly at him 'I forgot how off the charts his nice-guy meter was'. Not knowing how to greet Reinhard he decided to just introduce himself. "Oh, I'm sorry I didn't notice I was in the way. My name is Natsuki Subaru." He told Reinhard this as they made their way out the walkway. "It's a pleasure to meet you Subaru, I'm Reinhard van Astrea. I'm a Holy Knight despite my appearance, I just happen to be off duty today" Now it was time to answer Reinhard's earlier question.
However this was something Subaru didn't know how to answer, while he did want to use this restart to his advantage he also didn't want to change everything. He planned on following in his footsteps from his previous loops until it got to them going to the Royal Capital and Rem falling victim to the Archbishop of Gluttony. Detering too much could cause unnecessary trouble, the victories he obtained should stay the same. So the request he gave Reinhard last time shouldn't change, but this isn't the same place and time he gave it before. Would that change the outcome? Right now Subaru could only hope for the best. Smiling, he looks at Reinhard "Can you relay a message for me".
After telling Reinhard and giving a description of Emilia, without telling him her name since that's how it happened last time. Saying how to not go to the loot house, he'll bring what she's looking for. Reinhard accepted the request and had both bid farewell to each other. Subara then decided to head to the loot house and try to re-enact what he did on the successful loop. 'Here's to hoping this works'.
The Slums
Talking to the same dude who he asked about where Felt lived, he got the directions and started to head over. 'I don't think it was too important for me to talk to him but better safe than sorry. I don't want some BS butterfly effect to happen. It's already off as is with how I met Reinhard, I got to follow up everything else perfec-' Subaru stopped with his thoughts as he bumped into something, very nice and soft he might add.
"Oh, dear. I'm sorry, are you alright?" He had just bumped into a woman who had a very voluptuous body. Clad in a black cloak with purple fur around the neck. A skin tight material under her cloak which showed off her amazing curves. She sounded innocent when she asked if he was alright but he knew better. This was the bowel hunter, Elsa. A very wicked contract killer who enjoys cutting the bellies of her victims at their insides spill out withering in pain until they die. She was one of the problems he was facing in the Sanctuary, because she was contracted by Roswaal. Honestly Subaru didn't even know how to go around dealing with him.
"You appeared to be troubled, was it that bad to bump into me?" A sinister smile comes across her face as she gets closer to Subaru. Instinctively Subaru backed away until he couldn't as his back was now against the wall. Elsa came as close as she could until she couldn't anymore as the only space that was separating their bodies were their clothes. He definitely felt her huge tits pressed into her chest. Aroused and sheer terror is what Subaru was feeling at this moment. 'Why did such beauty have to go to waste on twisted person as her'
"You're afraid aren't you, also angry and towards me I might add." She licks her lips as she some closer to Subaru's face, 'Fuck! I forgot I bumped into when trying to find Felt, and this is definitely not how the encounter was last time" Elsa on the other hand was very curious about the boy, she could tell he was terrified and angered at her, yet she could've sworn this was the first time ever setting her eyes on the boy. That's not the biggest thing that piqued her curiosity however, no it was for some strange reason that being this boy's presence was something she couldn't quite put her finger on. There was a feelling at her chest, not the boy's chest, while she did and enjoyed the feeling of his chest against hers. It was something else, it made her feel warm, she enjoyed it in fact. As much as she did when she cut someone's bowels open, it was a different type of good but one she definitely liked.
"You know if you stay silent like that, I'm just going to assume you don't care what I'm doing" She did something that surprised both him and her. She reached her arm below her and grabbed his crotch, grasping his clothed member. Before she could think why she did that she saw the look on the boy's face and pushed his head back because of the experience he was going through. 'Ara Ara, now this is something I definitely want to do again' She lets go of her grip on his member that was now hard against her hand, Subaru looks back at her but before he could say anything she licks his cheek before pulling back "I'm unsure what warranted these negative feelings you have for me and while I'm quite curious about that and" she pauses while she glancer her eyes towards his crotch and looking back with a seductive smile on her face "other things, this is unfortunately not the place nor time to satisfy that curiosity. Till we meet next time silent boy" She says with a wink and leaves with a sway on her hips.
Subaru's heartbeat was on full throttle beating an insane number per minute. 'That definitely didn't happen last time!'
The Loot House
Subaru had met Felt back in her original attire. The last time he saw her was at the Royal Selection with the yellow gown. He remembered her not really liking the dress despite Reinhard's insistence on wearing more ladylike clothing. Felt was someone with medium length golden hair with a black bow. She had a long red scarf around her neck. Her top, if you could even call it that, was a piece of black cloth wrapped around her modest chest. And that was it. It gave him a nice view of her ample cleavage at the very least. She had a brown vest and matching gloves with white fur trimmings. She had black pants but one side was completely ripped off up to her thighs which showed off her legs. She had a belt with a sheath that held her knife. From what he could tell she was around his age, he was 17 and if I was a guessing man he'd say she is 16. (She is in this fic)
After Subaru found Felt and thankfully everything happened the same as last they went to the loot house to negotiate for the insignia. However he couldn't help but think that she was a lot more 'friendlier' with him. There were two things that didn't happen like the successful loop now, how he met Reinhard and the encounter with Elsa. Subaru actually had no idea if this loop would still be successful anymore but his only hope was to try, after all he rather not have to die with his stomach being cut open and restarting again. He already had multiple attempts last time on this loop, he would rather not have to go multiple loops again.
Subaru had just proposed to trade his cellphone for the insignia, which Rom said this 'metia' could be sold for at least 20 Holy Coins. Felt wasn't willing to take the offer until the original buyer came first. 'Alright so far everything is going exactly as the successful loop from before so good, Emilia should be coming soon and Elsa shortly after. Reinhard will show up right?! This isn't going to work if he doesn't! If this doesn't work I'll have to ask him to come the the loot house, hopefully asking directly won't change things too much'
*Knock Knock*
"Who's that?" Rom asked with Felt quickly replying "It might be for me. It is a bit early, though"
Felt then goes and reaches for the door 'Alright time to get into character, nervous face and shaky voice is in action. Please acting skills don't let me down'
"Don't open it!" Felt looks back at his yell "W-We'll be killed" Felt not giving two shits about what he said though proceeds to open the door. A cute silver haired girl with white clothes and purple outlines on it then peeks her head inside. "Kill you? I wouldn't do something so terrifying" said silver haired beauty walked inside the loot house.
Subaru knew he had to act the part of her being here instead of Elsa but a genuine smile couldn't help escape from him. It was really good to see her like this, not the shattered and fragile state she was in from the trials. It's been a long time since he's seen her like this. However while Subaru was reminiscing how nice it is to see Emilia again. Emilia had already conjured up some ice crystals in the air pointing at everyone in the room. All the while discussing things like her demanding her insignia back and refusing to. With Rom telling Felt that he would normally fight mages but her in particular was troublesome.
"You're an elf aren't you?" Rom asked Emilia who gave a light glare at the man before responding "Not exactly, I'm only a half-elf". Felt's face changing, processing the information she just heard. Slightly backing away "A half-elf? And with silver hair… Wait, are you-" Emilia quickly cuts her off while waving one of her arms in a dismissive manor " It's an accidental resemblance! Really, it's quite bothersome for me."
Felt looking at Subaru "Did you set me up/?" Felt looked at him with a hurt expression. Subaru finally snapped out of his thoughts from her question. 'Alright, remember to act your role. Everything will turn out okay like before if I just follow the same footsteps. "Huh, No, I didn't do anything" Not believing she states "After you'd said you return it to its owner, I thought you were suspicious!"
Emilia confused "What do you mean? You two aren't working together?" she asks as one of the ice crystals were pointing at him. Emilia looks at the boy as if actually recognizing his presence. She could hear her heart thumping in her chest, her cheeks feeling warm. What was happening? She couldn't comprehend why she was feeling this way when looking at him despite only meeting for the first time.
Subaru lets out a small chuckle from his lips trying to re-enact what happened to the most minuscule detail. "Hey! What are you laughing about?!" Subaru faces her "Come on isn't that enough? Return her insignia" Turning to Emilia, "And Sat- you, hurry and get out of here. Try to not let anyone steal it from you again"
Just what is about with the boy thought Emilia, "Why are you suddenly being so nice? I don't understand at all" Felt pumping up her fist in the air "I don't understand you either! What's up with you?!" Subaru notices just on cue a black curved blade approaching Emilia from behind "Puck! Shield her!" A blue shield appearing out of nowhere manifests itself between Emilia and the blade. Making Elsa back away from Emilia. Puck then comes out of Emilia's hair as if he was nesting in there the whole time. "That was a bit closer than I expected" You're telling me! Subaru instantly yelled inside his head. That was one of the more anxious parts of this re-enactment since if he warned him too late Emilia could've died.
"You really saved us, thank you" Puck then gives Subaru a thumbs up, Subaru looks at him "Nice one Puck! Thank goodness it was before five, while you're still on duty. Thanks!" Subaru giving him a thumbs up back. 'Eh?! He knows about Puck, and he knows about him leaving at five? Do they know each other?' Emilia questioned the black haired teen as she was trying to avoid the fact that his call out saved her. As if trying to see this boy in a good light to avoid this feeling that's been building up in her chest.
"A spirit… That is a spirit, yes?" She giggles and starts walking, making her humongous rack move in a way that Subaru had a hard time ignoring. "How wonderful. I have never dissected a spirit's stomach before." Saying with a wicked smile on her face. Felt asks what she means by that and this ends up with Elsa talking about how she was going to kill everyone here and they can't negotiate with the owner here. Saying she shouldn't have expected much from a slum dweller who couldn't do her job. And now for Subaru to get in character and continue this repeat of a De-ja-vu.
"You bitch. Cut the crap! Don't get kicks from picking up on a little kid! You guts-loving sadist! Felt is doing her best to live strong! Just because your plan was thrown off, you think it's over and flip tables? Are you a little kid?! You should value life more! Do you know how much having your belly cut open hurts? Well I do!"
"Ara ara, if it isn't silent boy, I'm so overjoyed that fate granted us the opportunity to meet again!" Elsa had a genuine smile on her face despite her surprise of registering who he was and this made Subaru disappointed. 'Well this sucks. So much for matching the dialogue. AGH! What the fuck do I do now!? There's too many things going off track!' While Subaru was trying to think of his next move since re-doing everything the same way isn't working out Elsa was on her way closer to Subaru. However Emilia, not wanting the lady who declared that she was going to kill everyone here get closer to the boy that was making her feel a certain way, shot an ice crystal at Elsa, stopping her in her tracks.
"Don't come any closer!" Emilia warned the busty contract killer, sending a mean looking glare. From what Elsa said it seems as if she met the boy before, though it doesn't seem as if they are friends from how he reacted to her. Still for some reason her being happy that she met him again and trying to get closer to him was just an idea she didn't like. She doesn't even know the strange boy's name yet she couldn't help but feel this way.
"Well aren't you an impatient one, I was gonna kill you after messing with silent boy again but if you can't wait for your turn I'll just focus on my job and kill everyone first, starting with you" Elsa dashes towards Emilia with incredible speed and strikes but was blocked when that shield from earlier manifest again. Emilia shot her ice crystals at her while she was close but Elsa quickly dodged out the way putting distance between the two.
'Ah forget doing the same thing over, I'm better at improving when it comes down to times like these. I can't stay useless when Emilia is endangered.' Subaru quickly starts racking his brain on a way to help beat Elsa. If he remembered correctly there wasn't much time left before Puck ran out of gas. The best case scenario would be for them to stall for time for when Reinhard gets here, the quicker he gets here.
'Wait a minute! Didn't Reinhard find us because Felt was able to escape and run into him?! If that's the case then the sooner we get Felt to escape the faster Reinhard would get here!' He felt bad for relying on Emilia on having Elsa's undivided attention and not helping her while he convinces Felt to escape but at least she still had Puck.
Subaru starts whispering to Felt on what to do on his mark she starts arguing that she won't run away and this goes back and forth until he convinces her. Meanwhile back to Emilia, who just blocked another strike from Elsa she says something that surprises Elsa, Puck, and herself "Just what are your plans for the boy!" Elsa puts some distance away from her before answering.
"Ara ara, are you also interested in him? Normally I don't answer the question of the ones I'm about to kill since they ask about who sent me or why I'm doing this. And I can't answer that obviously, I like to consider myself a professional in my line of work" Elsa takes a quick glance at the boy who seems to be whispering something to the young slum dweller she returns her gaze back to Emillia. "However what you asked actually isn't related to my work so I don't mind answering, however it may not be what you were expecting" She brings her hand up and shrugs as if confused herself "I don't know what my exact plans are for the boy, while he does indeed interest me I can't answer why he does. However do believe this, after I kill everyone and I have my alone time with him I'm sure I'll find out" She replies with a smile, yet nothing but hostility could describe the look on her face.
"As if I'll let you get your hands on him" Emilia states with determination as she brings her hands up forming more crystals aiming at her. 'Emilia' Puck was silent during the discussion between the two. He's been here the entire time and he's certain this is the first time meeting the boy, she knows Emilia is a kind person and heart but this seems more than just her standard wanting to help people. Why is she suddenly having a fixation on the boy? However his thinking would have to be postponed for later as the fighting continued.
Elsa went in for another strike but still couldn't get a hit in as Puck was doing an astounding job of making sure Emilia didn't get hurt. Unfortunately Emilia and Puck weren't able to land an attack either. As Elsa backed away since Emilia shot crystals at her again when the strike was blocked one could hear Subaru yell "Now go!" Instantly Felt dashed forward, since the way Subaru, Felt, and Rom were positioned they had to go through Emilia and Elsa to reach the door. So they would need to wait for an opening when Elsa wasn't close but also when Emilia wasn't attacking. And that time was now, Elsa seeing the slum dweller try to leave she sets her focus from Emilia to her not wanting to let someone escape. However Rom quickly intervened from her getting to Felt, swinging a huge club at her Elsa easily dodged and moved away. While Rom had the strength he didn't have the agility. Emilia couldn't shoot since Elsa was skillfully positioning Rom between the two not giving Emilia the chance to support. Felt almost reaching the door Elsa had a Felt in her line of sight when she backed away from Rom. She pulled one of her hands back with a blade gripped in her palm ready to throw it at Felt before she could escape. However before she had the chance to let go Subaru tackled her to the ground.
Felt was able to successfully escape. She didn't expect the so-called silent boy to come forth since when they met earlier he wasn't able to even move nor speak as he was controlled by the fear of her earlier. She honestly should be upset since the girl escaped, she let a witness go. Not once did she ever slip up in her line of work. Yet nothing but a smile could be seen on her face and she was embracing the boy who had tackled her in the ground. Subaru was currently suffocating in her beautiful rack and was trying to escape, unfortunately Elsa wasn't letting her, humming a happy tune even as she held him in place. Rom on one hand was glad Felt got away since she was the only he really cared about in the loot house. He should be following suit since Elsa seemed preoccupied.
However he didn't dare move a muscle from the sheer amount of pressure that was being generated behind him. Words could not be described from the ominous aura emitting from Emilia. She was watching Elsa and the boy entangled with one another and for reasons she couldn't understand she was pissed, angered, absolutely vivid. "Emilia?" Puck asked in concern seeing how Emilia was in such a state. Emilia snaps out of her anger from Puck calling out to her. She wanted to reply but she didn't know how to. Why was she so angry? For some reason seeing Elsa embrace the boy just puts a feeling in her stomach that she doesn't like.
"Sorry Puck, I don't know what came over me" she says innocently looking at Puck while also aiming her hand towards the two people on the floor. Forming a crystal on her palm she shoots. This made Elsa reluctantly let go of Subaru to strike the incoming shard with her blade. The crystal was perfectly aimed so it wouldn't have hit Subaru. "That's quite the aim you got there, I didn't expect you to risk the shot of accidently hitting silent boy. *sighs* You just had to ruin my fun. As expected I need to kill you first"
Meanwhile Subaru was gasping for air as he was no longer being suffocated on her huge soft orbs. 'What is going on?! She was definitely nothing like this before. She could've killed me right then and there! Cut my stomach open and enjoy her weird kink of seeing people's gut spilled out' Subaru couldn't fathom the sudden fixation he was receiving from Elsa. However he was also noticing Emilia also acting weird. 'Just what type of butterfly effect BS is going on here?!'
"I'm out of time" Puck said disappointingly, he didn't want to leave Emilia alone when she was in such an odd state. Puck turned to Emilia "Sorry but I'm out of mana Emilia" Understanding she replies "No it's okay, sorry for making you stay longer than usual. I'll take care of the rest" Puck whispers to her "If anything happens I'll fulfill my contract to the end" he then ironically he looked at the source of why Emilia was acting weird but still asked as he seemed to have good intentions. "Please take Emilia" and with that Puck vanished.
"Oh dear, it seems like you'll have a harder time without your spirit to protect you." Elsa smiles menacingly, thinking that her time alone with Subaru would come sooner than she thought. "However I should make sure there's not anymore witnesses as there had been one blunder already" Elsa dashes to Rom, quickly erasing the distance between the two. Rom was able to react quickly and swing his club at her and striked down, unfortunately Elsa was too quick and jumped and landed on his club after it reached the ground. She strikes towards his head but was pushed at the last second by Subaru which made her miss but was still able to strike his face, injuring one of his eyes. "My my, I don't mind if you want to be forceful but there is a time and place for tha-" She's interrupted when Emilia shoots at her making her back away.
Subaru looked down at Rom, he was kneeled down clutching his face as a lot of blood was spilling out and seemed to be struggling on trying to get up. He wouldn't blame the guy if he passed out soon. Elsa was engaging Emilia but didn't have the same defense or offense as when Puck was here, Elsa was getting the advantage. "I seemed to have made many mistakes today, I'm not so dense as to not realize I let the boy distract me. However what I can't understand is why you were so angered when I was with the boy. From what it sounds like it also seems as if you two are strangers." Emilia tried to ignore her as she was telling her this while continuing her onslaught on her. Emilia was on the edge barely blocking her attacks but she was letting what she said get to her. 'Even Puck noticed I was acting weird, why am I acting this way? Ever since I saw him I've been feeling weird'
However as quickly as she let those thoughts go in her head, it became a distraction in which Elsa capitalized on and delivered a satisfying kick to the silver haired girl sending her flying over the counter hitting the wall. She fell on the floor with the shelves and everything on it collapsed on her. Now it was just Elsa and Subaru, seeing as Rom was out for the count he grabbed his club and prepared to fight Elsa. 'Damn, Reinhard any minute would be nice now!' he internally pleaded in his mind for the red haired knight to show up.
"Fufu, it's great to see you still having your fighting spirit despite it just being you now. You let a witness get away and stopped me from killing the giant man. Oh but don't get me wrong I'm not going to hurt you because of that, however since you did some mean things to me." She smiled while walking to Subaru with a seductive sway on her hips. When she got close enough he used all his strength and swung the club at her. She moved around the club with ease and grabbed and with a bit of force twisted his wrist causing him to let go of the club. He let out a small yelp of pain before she pushed his back against the wall. She licked her lips before leaning closer so her huge breast was against his chest, a similar position to what they had before they were in the loot house, her lips next to his ear "I'm going to take some compensation for the trouble you caused me, for you see you've been making feel a certain way. Making me have a craving and I'm going to fulfill it right now"
And without a second to waste she latches her lips onto his, he couldn't push her away since she was holding his hands against the wall not allowing him to resist. She was pushing her crotch against his, he didn't want to be aroused but his body betrayed him. He got hard. Elsa felt that and started grinding against it, Subaru couldn't help but open his mouth and let out a moan from the feeling. He soon regretted it as Elsa took the chance to slide her tongue in making Subaru melt from the pleasure he was receiving. She pulled back from the kiss, a trail of saliva forming between both their lips. Subaru was panting as he never made out like that, this was a base he never been to before with anyone.
"See, that wasn't so bad was it. And don't lie, it's easy to tell that your body is enjoying it." She emphasizes by grinding on his hardened member to prove her point. "Forget about the stupid girl and come with me. I promise I can make it worth it". She pulled herself away from him so her chest was no longer pressed against his. She brings one of his hands to her chest to let it grab it. He couldn't but as if on instinct to give it a good squeeze. "Umphmm, ah you see you know you want it."
Subaru's mind was fried right now, 'I don't even know what's going on anymore' he was having trouble processing wtf was happening. She then let go of his other hand as she saw he wasn't resisting anymore and reached down to grab his hard cock through his pants. He pushed his head back and the feeling of her gripping his clothed member. Was this really Elsa? Maybe this is a dream and is about to wake up in the trial rooms. Maybe this is a trial? His mind was in a daze trying to think of a logical solution of how he ended up like this and the only thing he could think of was that this wasn't real. 'Well if it isn't real might as well enjoy it' As he thought that she leaned to claim his lips again.
"NO!" A crystal was shot towards Elsa who pulled away from Subaru in order to strike the income projectile. She strikes the crystal and a frown could be seen on both faces of Elsa and Emilia. "You have a knack for ruining my fun, though the fault should remain on me, seeing as though I still have failed to kill anyone haven't I?" Emilia had one hand on the counter holding herself up, with the other hand aiming at Elsa, forming more crystals. Seeing what she was doing to the boy made something snap. "Get away from him!" A great amount of crystals started forming and shot towards Elsa.
Unfortunately anger doesn't equal a power boost, if only this was an anime. Elsa quickly dodged all the crystals before she charged to Emilia, wanting to finally give her the finishing blow. However in the midst of all that Subaru was able to regain his senses "Dammit Subaru! How could you give in to her! You were willing to give up on Emilie. How could I be so pathetic!' He goes in to stop Elsa from her tracks, until Elsa decides to unleash a blow on the back of his head, quickly rendering him unconscious. "While I want to have my fun with you, I can't let you continue letting my slip up when doing my job. When you wake we'll have lots of fun, look forward to it" Emilia saw the boy try to get in Elsa's way to save her. And this fiend attacked him. "Unforgivable" Emilia mutters while glaring daggers at Elsa. While Elsa only smiles while walking to Emilia with boths hands twirling black blades. Yet before both of them could do anything.
"That's enough" a man says with such authority that made Elsa stop her advance to Emilia. "It looks like a close call but I'm glad I made it in time" She turns back to see a red haired man with a sword at his waist. "You're…" she stops as if registering who this man is. "Now let's put an end to this shall we, let's see. Black hair, black clothes, and a black blade unique to the northern provinces. There is no mistaking those characteristics. You are the bowel hunter." Elsa smiles. "You're Reinhard correct? The knight amongst knights, born in a family of great swordsmen. How remarkable of someone of your caliber to know who I am"
"There are many things I'd like to ask you, I strongly suggest you surrender." Elsa glances at the unconscious boy next to her, "I'm afraid that's not an option" she then lunges at Reinhard going straight for the kill, only for her to be grabbed and thrown across the room. When she looks back up, she see's Reinhard checking on the Giants man that seemed to be unconscious while bleeding out. He then glances at Subaru who also looks unconscious but thankfully doesn't appear to have any fatal injuries. He directs his gaze to Emilia who jumped over the counter and headed towards him. "Emilia-sama, may I request you to heal this man and look after the two. I'll have my hands busy with the Bowel Hunter. Oh, and do please notify me once you're done with the healing" Understanding why she nods in agreement and quickly begins healing Rom, while occasionally looking at the unconscious boy.
Reinhard looks behind back to Elsa who was already coming for another attack, he simply stomps his foot on the ground and a wave of immense pressure comes forth halting Elsa in her place, for him to kick her back to the other side of the room."I'd rather not use violence against a lady, would you please reconsider surrendering?" Elsa props herself back up, "You're just as the legend says, no even better. Are you going to use the sword on your hips, I would love to witness its legendary sharpness" Reinhard glances at his sword before stating "This sword is only drawn when it's needed, right now is not one of those times." He then reaches down to the floor and picks up a sword on the floor which most likely belonged to the loot house. "For this battle I do believe this would suffice"
Elsa on one hand felt as though she was being underestimated, at the same time she was glad of the handicap. For right now her thoughts of how she could get away with the boy. She could get away but not sure if she could do it bringing Subaru, and she didn't want to leave him. She knew she couldn't get away with the boy however, maybe if it was another knight but not Reinhard. The only choice she had left was to kill him and thus began her attack.
She started bouncing around the loot house attacking him in every direction. He seemingly blocked every attack with ease, and was able to grab one of her two blades. She however continued on with her attacks, refusing to let up after she lost one blade. This went on and on until Reinhard was finally able to grab her final blade. "Now that you have no weapons, perhaps you may reconsider surrendering?"
Elsa's disappointment was an understatement, while she wouldn't give up to kill as she is a professional, she would however have to give up on bringing the boy. She then gave the speech to Reinhard that if she lost her two fangs she would use her body as a weapon and wouldn't give up, as that was the way of the Bowel Hunter. As she was about to continue her attack "I finished with the healing!" Emilia exclaimed which meant Reinhard could now go on the offensive. With that Reinhard started absorbing the mana in the surrounding atmosphere and all there could be seen was a bright white flash as Reinhard swung his sword.
Emilia opened her eyes, taking in the surrounding area. Reinhards attack blew up a good portion of the loot house. Reinhard in the center of the destruction and Elsa nowhere to be seen. Reinhard then goes to Emilia, "Emilia-sama I'm glad that you're safe, it's also a relief that you were able to heal this man and no real harm came to Subaru" Emilia looks at Reinhard and tilts her head 'Subaru?'
"By the way, Emilia-sama, what is your relation to Subaru?" he asked as he gestured with his hand towards Subaru. "A passing acquaintance? I don't recall ever meeting him before. I thought our meeting here earlier was our first" Emilia then looked at the sleeping boy "Subaru" she whispered to no one but herself, smiling of his name leaving her lips. That smile quickly disappears as Elsa comes out of nearby debri in one last attempt to kill Emilia. She couldn't defend herself in time but thankfully Reinhard was able to. She clicks her tongue as Reinhard was able to block the attempt then jumps out of his reach before he could grab her. She scales to the top of the house and looks down to them "Subaru, what a lovely name. I'll definitely come and re-claim him" Emilia looks at her with anger while Elsa just smiles. "Enjoy your time with him for now, I'll take him back soon enough. With your death as well" And with that Elsa escapes from the scene.
Emilia relaxes as Elsa leaves, "Are you certain this is the first time you met Subaru?" Reinhard asks again. "Yes I'm certain, why? Is there a problem?" Reinhard puts his hand to his chin as if in deep thought "It's that Subaru was looking for you. He even asked me to relay a message of how not to come here, that he'll bring you what you're looking for. However as you can tell I wasn't able to locate and relay the message to you in time I do apologize" Emilia looks at Reinhard bowing as he apologizes. She waves her hands dismissively "No there's no need for an apology, this would have gone much worse if you hadn't been here"
"Old man Rom!" Felt came back now that it was safe and was glad to see Rom breathing, unconscious but nonetheless still breathing. She had some tears forming in her eyes but they were of relief. Emilia walks up to her and says "Is this man your family?" Felt looks at her and back to Rom "Something like that, he's the only thing I have. I guess he's like my Grandpa" Emilia smiles and thinks about Puck, she remembers his concern earlier. Even she noticed she was acting weird. "I see, I only have one person that's like family too, though I'm always making him worried" She smiles thinking about going about the weird feeling she sets from Subaru to Puck.
"I thought you would be much harsher to me. I'm sorry. You saved my life and I can't let that debt go unpaid. I'll return what I stole. If it's important, keep it hidden so no one can steal it again!" She looks at Subaru 'I also she thank him as well' An indecent thought appears in her head before she blushes and shakes the thought out of her head, She then grabs the insignia from her clothes and hands it to Emilia "It feels funny having you give me a warning" However before Emilia could reach it Reinhard notices a light from the insignia when Felt was holding onto it. Reinhard forcefully grabs Felt's wrist to bring it closer so he can inspect it. "Reinhard?" Emilia questions "Ow! You're hurting me! Let go!"
Reinhard however could only have a face of pure shock "How can this be!? What's your name"
Confused, she replies "Huh? It's Felt…" Reinhard brings her closer "And your family name? How old are you?" Felt then retorts "I don't have anything fancy like a family name. And… I'm about fifteen I think… I don't know my birthday. Look just let me go!" Reinhard then looks at Emilia and says "I apologize Emilia-sama but I'm taking this girl with me" Emile now more confused "May I ask why? If it's for stealing my insignia" Reinhard quickly replies "While that is indeed no small crime. But compared to the gravity of me overlooking the crime unfolding before me, it's trivial" He than props Felt up "I need you to come with me, Unfortunately I cannot allow you to decline" Felt angered by this "Get over yourself! Just because you saved me-" Reinhard brings his palm to her face and then she knocks out the next second.
"That wasn't very courtly either" Emilia states "I didn't use too much" Reinhard simply replies. "What do you wish to do with Subaru? If you wish I would gladly welcome him to my-"
"No!" Emilia quickly cuts off the idea of being separated from the boy. "Uh I mean no thank you. I'll take him with me. I'd like to know more about him and find out why he was looking for me and tried to return the insignia" She says with a blush while looking at Subaru.
"I see, well I may have to call upon you soon, I hope you understand" he then gets up after pick Felt up "Please take good care of Subaru"
Unknown Bedroom
Subaru opens his eyes, he slowly gets up from what appears to be a bed. He scans the room and see two people and before anything can be said he smiles 'Rem'
Author's Notes
So that's the first chapter, a lot longer than I expected. I was really struggling with how to go about making this fic as I didn't know where I wanted it to take place in the story. I think I'm okay with it starting in the beginning. I do not know the full capabilities of the witch's power and have no idea if they can do what I made them do in this fic. However it was convenient if they could so I wrote it that way.
So as to who is going to be in the Harem, I'd like to say most of the women in Re:Zero except little girls. So no Petra or Typhon. Unsure if I'm going to do Beatrice, I normally don't let you readers have a say as to who's going to be in the harem because in the end I want to write about who I want to write about and not really caring if you guys want it or not.
Felt is in the Harem! I added a small description to how she looks, I'll add a more detailed one when she's introduced again.
Fun fact, I looked up how fast it takes for someone to die if they bit off their tongue. Apparently it takes quite a while for them to bleed out that way and most of the time won't even die! Weird how ineffective it actually is despite lots of shows using this trope of someone killing themselves.
I got really lazy at the end of this fic, not sure if any of you guys noticed it. It's really late where I'm at and I am really tired, but I wanted to post this before I went to bed. I think that's everything I wanted to say so on that note I shall end it here and see you guys next time!
