Kapitel 60: Omake: If Mikael was ever summoned to Chaldea
There was something... off about Chaldea's newest servant, Ritsuka thought as she and Mash watched him walk down the hall while whistling innocently.
How suspicious.
"Senpai! Mikael replaced all of Holmes' Void Dust with powdered sugar!"
Learning about her servants had saved her life and human history more times than she could count. Most Servants were either known to her thanks to her... extensive lessons in mythology, or they had met in a Lostbelt or Singularity. Those utterly unfamiliar to Rituska required a more in-depth study and evaluation before the Last Master felt confident in using a new Servant to the greatest effect.
Still, grasping who this one was was proving more difficult than usual.
If there was one thing she had learned after all these years, all servants were bullshit. But 'Mikael' was odd in a wholly different way. Odd and worrying.
"Senpai! Mikael and Anastacia are fighting another prank war!"
Mikael did plenty of absurd things, as all servants did, whether it was his cooking (Benni-enma had cried), his friends (Who on earth holds a singing contest with Nero and the Lizs then decides to watch anime with Blackbeard), to his hobbies (Ritsuka never thought being annoyingly petty was a hobby until now. His interactions with Kama were particularly hilarious).
And that was not even considering his romantic relationships.
"Senpai! Mikael started a wrestling program with Quetzalcoatl and Astraea! And he's having Ishtar, Caren and the Queen of Sheba hold a betting pool!"
Ritsuka had no idea how he had done it but had somehow ended up in a romantic relationship with an absurd number of women. She could sort of understand Medea and Medea Lily, as well as all Scathach and Skadi. They came from more sexual cultures than hers, so polygamy might not seem too weird to them.
What really blew Ritsuka's (and everyone else's) mind was that he had managed to seduce Artoria.
Every Artoria.
There were a lot of Artorias.
Some of which hated each other with an absolute passion.
Archer (Emiya, since that wasn't a clear description anymore) thought it was some new True Magic. Or he bribed them with food.
The knights of the Round started off as warry, then became best friends with him. How Ritsuka didn't know, all she knew was that they practically worshiped the ground he walked on.
"Senpai! Mikael is drinking with Lancelot, D'Eon, and Napoleon! They're speaking French!"
If Mikael was just a playboy, even if a good one, then she and her Mashmallow wouldn't be spying on him. After all, Furgus existed. (Ritsuka was sure Caladbolg was powered by pure 'horny.')
But he wasn't.
He had, on multiple occasions, turned down sexual relations with other servants. (While seeing him literally throw Kiara out of his room with a cry of 'begone thot!' had been funny, Ritsuka still considered him chasing Medb through the halls with a whip of string cheese to be better.) Even if a woman he liked, such as Gorgon, Medusa, Nero, or Ibuki, expressed interest, he would kindly but firmly turn them down.
What does 'I won't cheat on my wives' mean when you sleep with twenty women? Even if fourteen are versions of the same woman!
If anything, he was disgustingly romantic. When he wasn't taking women on 'dates' in the simulator, he was always cuddling with one or more of them or helping with their hobbies.
"Senpai! Mikael challenged Moriarty and Holmes to deduce which was better, AC or DC, while Edison and Tesla were also in the cafeteria. And then he started chanting Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap in the background!"
And then there were his stats. They were all over the place! High magic and NP stats with poor physical (except Endurance) usually meant a caster or long-range fighter. But Mikael fought with weapons, not spells, for the most part.
And don't even get her started on his skills!
'Eye of the Mind (True)' wasn't unusual at all, though A++ was the highest she had seen. 'Existence Outside the Domain EX' was rare, but it wasn't unknown either. 'Godslayer EX' was rarer, but Muramasa had it as well.
Ritsuka could understand 'Talented B.' It was like Imperial Privaledge, but instead of giving instant access to other skills, it multiplied the learning rate. Less instantly helpful, but better the longer Mikael was summoned and the more teachers he had.
"Senpai! Mikael is teaching the child servants!"
That was where the familiar, if odd, ended, and the madness began.
'Inexhaustible' was broken, plain and simple. It not only raised his MP and Endurance to EX levels, but it also ensured that he would never die unless he was killed instantly. That skill alone would put anyone in the upper class of servants. It also meant he generated all the power he needed, not drawing anything from Chaldea or her, which was great.
"Senpai! Mikael's cat and Fou are plotting something again! The Konyanskyas, Kiaras, Kamas, Tiamat, and Draco are all running away! Merlin is in hiding!"
What wasn't great was 'World Ender C+.'
Also not heartening was 'Trail of Ashen Tears.' It didn't have a rank, so it was a personal skill, and Ritsuka was a bit too worried to ask what it meant.
"Senpai, Mikael is bullying Jason... I don't think we need to do anything."
But what truly had Ritsuka on guard was his Noble Phantasms.
Many servants had multiple NPs. Hell, Artoria had a dozen or so in her various iterations, so him having two was nothing out of the ordinary.
'Dragon of Freedom and Life' was like a ramped-up version of Sieg's Akafiloga All-Grid. Powerful and destructive like all Anti-World Noble Phantasms, it would also never be used. So long as Mikael never deployed it, he would keep returning even if his body was destroyed, making him immortal.
"Senpai! Mikael is making puns with Jaguarmura-sensei! We're DOOMED!"
Ritsuka and Mash followed Mikael, determined to learn more about him, because of his second and final Noble Phantasm.
Like his other Noble Phantasm, 'Break Out!' was self-targeting. But unlike Dragon of Freedom and Life, it could be used on anything he touched.
If there was ever an anti-Master Noble Phantasm, this was it. It not only made him immune to all control effects like charm, sleep, bindings, or boundary fields, but it also meant Command Seals did not work on him or anyone he was touching.
Nothing could control him.
Nothing could stop him.
Mikael might not be the strongest servant, but he was definitely the most troublesome. If he ever turned against Human Order, they were doomed.
"Senpai," Mash tugged on Ritsuka's sleeve with a luminous blush on her face. "How do I look?"
Her adorable little Mashmallow was wearing what could only be considered a Little Black Dress. Its cut was particularly daring, and the young Demi-servant was squirming in embarrassment.
Ritsuka staggered back from the attack of the Gap Moe.
Critical Hit!
Super Effective!
Ritsuka Fujimaru is unable to battle.
"Good Job!" Ritsuka answered with a thumbs up, wiping the drool from her lips and the blood dripping from her nose. "Where did you get that?"
"Ms. Medea made it for me," Mash answered with a radiant smile as her embarrassment faded. "Mikael asked her to make it for me as an apology for all the trouble he caused us both. Though I don't know where your gift is."
"I know where it is," Ritsuka answered as her eyes devoured her cute little Kohai.
Mikael might be suspicious and a little troublesome, but he was still her servant, right?
No need to alienate a new and powerful Foreigner when he could be a great ally, right?
If he could convince two Medeas, four Scathachs and fourteen Artorias to all wear Bunny Outfits at once, surely he could convince Mash to wear it once, right?
********
Had some free time today, so banged this out in a few hours. For those curious, here is how I would see Mikael's stats:
STR: C END: EX
AGL: D MP: EX
LUK: E NP: EX
Heigh/Weight: 210cm, 106kg
Origin: Fiction
Region: The Void Between The Stars
Alignment: Chaotic-Balanced
Gender: Male
There is no greater ally or foe - Artoria Pendragon (Lancer)
Class Skills:
Existence Outside the Domain EX: A skill denoting Foreigners as those who follow their own logic rather than conforming to the rule of the World.
Personal Skills:
Eye of the Mind (True) A++: A skill that denotes one's ability to read and direct the flow of combat. 'True' Eye of the Mind comes from overwhelming experience rather than inherent ability. It is gained by humans who fight rather than exceptional bloodlines or blessings. Due to his longer-than-normal lifespan, and sheer diversity of fighting experience, it is ranked A++. So long as even a .1% chance of victory exists, this ability significantly improves the chances of winning.
Godslayer EX: Anyone who slays a god gains this skill as it is one of the greatest feats one can accomplish. At EX rank, it marks the holder as the natural predator of the divine. Gods cease to be inconceivable beings in their presence and simply become 'food.' Those with the 'Divinity Trait' will strongly react to the holder in correlation to the rank of Divinity. (Normally, only adverse reactions are possible to this trait, but positive responses are possible in this case thanks to marrying and loving multiple women with the 'divine' attribute.)
Talented B: The ability to learn at a rate that is impossible for most beings. It is a learning rate multiplier, not direct ability gain like Imperial Privilege. What is impossible to learn, such as racial traits or blessings, is still impossible, so it is ranked B due to the scale and breadth of the Talent. A rank is a domain of learning unique abilities. EX can learn anything at all in seconds to minutes.
Inexhaustible EX: The skill holder's magic level will never fall below this ability's rank. It usually only has a minor effect on Endurance, raising it by one rank, but thanks to the use of healing miracles, Endurance is raised to EX rank as well.
World Ender C+: A skill that denotes the holder as someone whose actions lead to the end of a 'World Order.' Enhances any actions taken in rebellion against 'The World.' This skill is only C+ because he instated new world orders after destroying the old and actively sought the preservation of a few lifeforms rather than complete eradication. B rank is the complete destruction of a 'World.' A Rank is the eradication of multiple 'Worlds.'
Trail of Ashen Tears: A unique skill of Mikael's, one that can be considered a minor Noble Phantasm. It is the manifestation of his unceasing journey toward freedom. Passing through multiple worlds, life and death, heartbreak and loss, and even overcoming his own greatest fears. Nothing can stop his march forward.
Functions like an upgraded Determination of Steel.
Chains of Love (Hidden): Allows Mikael to 'bind' peoples and creatures to him, allowing them to gain various benefits, including immortality, while he lives. Anyone bound can order him to do anything, and he cannot stop them without someone else countermanding the order or releasing his first Noble Phantasm. Using this ability on his Master would ensure victory in any Holy Grail War.
Mikael will only do so if he fully loves and trusts such a special Master.
Noble Phantasms:
{Dragon of Freedom and Life}
Rank: EX
NP Type: Anti-Personnel (Self)/Anti-World
Range: 0
Maximum Targets: 1
A transformation Noble Phantasm. Upon deployment, Mikael assumes his true body of a Dragon so large that it's every movement could doom a planet. Attacks that are Anti-Fortress and below will have no effect due to the sheer size of his body. So long as Mikael is not killed after deploying this Noble Phantasm, he will simply form a new body and return. It is his greatest strength and weakness, so he will rarely, if ever, use it. (In FGO, it would not be used.)
{Break Out!}
Rank: EX
NP Type: Anti-Personnel (Self)
Range: 0
Maximum Targets: 1-100
No chains can bind him. No barrier can stop him. He can do anything he wants, no matter how others can try and control and restrict him. He is a being with no limits. A passive Noble Phantasm that is always active for Mikael, but actively deploying it will allow it to be extended to anyone touching him.
{Lies of a Human Mask} (Hidden)
Rank: A
NP Type: Anti-Personnel (Self)
Range: 0
Maximum Targets: Infinite
A disguise to hide the monster beneath a mask of human skin. A passive Noble Phantasm that is always activated. It allows Mikael to hide stats, skills and Noble Phantasms from even his Master or those with Clairvoyance. It can even deceive The World into thinking he is a regular servant. It is also a sublimation of all the Defences the Catalogue provided.
Releasing the True Name of this Noble Phantasm will dispense with all deception on Mikael's true nature, raising his physical parameters by two ranks. All who see it risk gaining Insight into the Truth of the World. Those unable to handle it shall descend into a maddened Frenzy.
It is only ranked A because other servants with Existence Outside the Domain ranked C or higher know instinctively what sort of being he is.
{Dreams of Distant Family} (Hidden)
Rank: E-A++
NP Type: Unknown
Range: 5 Meters
Maximum Targets: Variable
Somewhere out there, beyond the realms of time, space, and fate, there is an Island.
A hellscape for all invaders.
A blighted land containing dangers that can destroy a World three times over if released.
On that Island is a home. A Family who laughs, loves, and cries together. They, forever connected through this Noble Phantasm, can come to each other no matter the distance between them.
Summoning Mikael is equivalent to summoning his Family and his Island.
On that Island is a Dragon's Happy Ending.
And Mikael shall never give it up.

ReadingDangerously
ReadingDangerously There is the character sheet, as I imagine it. I could have added more if I wanted to be absurd, but this is a good fit. For context, for those unfamiliar with Fate, EX rank does not necessarily mean the strongest. It just means that the level cannot be measured. While this is usually an indicator of strength, it can also mean something is so unique that there is nothing to compare it to.
In a regular Grail War, Mikael would be a broken character, and in Chaldea, he would still be among the top tier, only rivalled by the likes of Void Shiki, Gilgamesh with Ea, or some of the Lostbelt Kings or Beasts. In FGO, he would be a mid-tier 5-star Arts-based Foreigner, Support/Attacker hybrid, specializing in Defence/invincibility pierce with debuff purge and team-buff NP. Useful for boss fights, especially against berserkers, but there are better options if you have them.
