Chapitre 45: Chain of Love
'Now then, I guess I should make a little something to, at least partially, compensate my loss of efficiency from losing Breathing and Walking . . .' Jun thought after working on his Noble Phantasms.
He was going to make an item that would become part of the core layer of his Null Myriad. A core based on Frankenstein's Bridal Chest.
Just to be sure, Nox first created the real thing and added it to Aeternus Eversor. It was simple enough to make and it allowed it to absorb magical energy from the surroundings and even enemy attacks.
Then he build one to become part of his Core Layer. Modified to be a totally independent system that could fulfil all the functions Frankenstein's battle mace and internal core fulfilled, all on its own. It was enormous, Tens of meters in diameter to make it more powerful.
Tonitrus: The Heart of Lightning (A+): Absorbs magical energy from one's surroundings and even enemy attacks, as well as magical energy discharged from one's own attacks that remains afterwards. Can then convert it bio electricity.
It can be used to attack or improves one's physical parameters as weak but continuous Mana Burst so long as there is enough magical energy. Can unleash all of its charge in a massive A+ electrical storm shaped like Blasted Tree.
All of these changes led to another internal one.
Dragon Burst (A+) -> Idea Burst (A++): Allows the user to use Mana Burst skills on any type so long as he possesses said element within them. Strength varies with A++ being the highest it can go with the fire, light, lightning and blood being at this rank.
With all of that done and checked, Jun activated a function of his prosthetic that made it look like a real arm so long as none of its special abilities were active and got out of his workshop.
As he entered the living room on the building, he found everyone hanging out.
"'Sup everyone!" He greeted in a good mood.
Said everyone immediately ran towards, asking if he was okay, even Kouji who was not the type.
"I'm feeling great! Got a new arm and everything!" Jun responded, waving around his left arm as he did.
""""""Woah!"""""" Everyone was surprised.
Lavinia then hugged him and much to her embarrassment, after Jun hugged her back, he kissed her on her lips, leaving everyone stupefied.
"What?" Jun was looking at them weirdly.
"You didn't tell them Lavi?" He asked Lavinia.
The blonde beauty shook her head in response.
"Oh!" Jun then turned to everyone.
"Lavi and I became an item after we returned." He casually said.
"No way! Already!?" Valia was shocked.
She then jumped towards Jun and planted her lips on his.
"I guess number two isn't that bad . . ." She shrugged with a huge blush her her pretty little face.
Shiki shook his head and hugged her too, much to her delight. Lavinia also took it in stride.
"Welcome to the group Vaa-chan" She said.
"Mhm! Good be a part!" Valia replied.
This triggered a chain reaction after they stopped hugging.
Kuroka dashed towards Jun and kissed him as well.
"You don't mind . . . do you?" Kuroka cutely yet erotically asked while looking up at Jun with upturned eyes.
"I most certainly do not." Jun replied.
Shirone wanted to be next but when she jumped, Kuroka grabbed her out of the air and scolded her like the big sister she was.
"Shirone is still too young for that!"
"No I'm not!" Shirone argued.
"Now, now." Jun patted Shirone making her give out cute loli noises.
"Maybe a couple a year or two from now okay?" Jun said.
Shirone grumbled but accepted. The chain reaction however, was not over.
Next up was Natsume, and then even Sae found the courage to do it, making Tobio fully give up hope and faint into Kouki's arms who apologized to Tobio for finding the situation a bit funny. Finally, even the newbie Shigune who was smitten in her rescue took the opportunity.
Afterwards, they all had a day to celebrate Jun's recovery and Tobio seemed to be looking better. Being able to fully give up finally set him free and left him able to focus on himself but he still excused himself from the celebration while apologizing to Jun.
Kouki, wanting to party with his boss felt like going but the glares from the girls who wanted Jun for themselves made him change his mind. Still, Jun made sure to tell him they would go for a bros only outing afterwards as they bumped fists.
During the date, while they enjoyed themselves, Jun also received a much needed update on how things were going.
Apparently, Kouga had excused himself from the group a little while afterwards but Shigune remained. Lavinia had opened up to the group about her past and shred her new goal with everyone, who in turn offered their help unconditionally.
Natsume, Sae, Shigune, Tobio and Kouki still made the team SLASH/DOG, working for Grigori to better themselves while Lavinia excused herself from those efforts. The girls' main goals for joining was to become strong enough to stand by Jun's side and Lavinia was already plenty strong.
As they went on the date, Jun's other mental rooms were also working on other matters. Like, summoning heroic spirits, converting Lavinia into a Servant if it would help her. Things like that.
'Summoning become cheaper due to the existence of the Round Table that is integrated into your armor but the making of a vessel has the same cost.' Ahsaka began.
'You certainly have enough magical energy for a summon or two if you choose not to create a Transcender class vessel' She communicated.
'As for converting living people to servants it can certainly strengthen them but every vessel has a limit, whether natural or unnatural. If someone's limit is greater than the vessel, it will only reduce them but if its lower, then they will have increased potential.'
'What about Lavi?' Jun inquired.
'For people close to you, Transcender vessels are always the best since they evolve to keep up with the increasing power of the spirit origin within them so just let her be.' Ahsaka replied.
After the date was over, Jun excused himself and went to his room in Kuoh instead before entering the Akashic Throne.
"Hey Cleria!" Jun greeted.
"Hey there handsome, here for another round~?" Cleria reasingly asked.
"You've become insatiable after our first time together." Jun said as they began making out.
"I blame it on you for being such a great lover~" She responded.
Jun then pushed her away.
"What's wrong?" Cleria asked.
"If it's about those girls I don't mind!" She quickly said.
"Or are you tired of me!?" She suddenly thought and panicked.
"Nonononono!" Jun immediately said, calming her down.
"Then what?" Cleria asked.
"How about we do it in the real world?" Jun suggested.
"Real world . . . You've gathered enough to make a body for me!?" She excitedly inquired.
"Yup! That's right Transcender class vessel and all!" Jun proudly replied.
And so, he began the ritual to summon Cleria Belial as his first Transcender class Servant.
Cleria had become a fixture in Jun's life and he often visited her in the Akashic Throne. Over the years, they became closer and, as Jun grew up, that closeness became attraction.
Still mourning Masaomi, Cleria did not wish to indulge them for a while but, after some time, she realized her ex would not want his memory to torment her like this and decided to just follow her heart. So in reality, Cleria had been Jun's first everything in this life.
A few hours later, Jun and Cleria were both in bed, utterly satisfied.
"I'm looking forward to bragging to your little girlfriends!" Cleria said with a devious smile.
"You do you lover. You do you." Jun replied.

Other than Mana, here parameters were pretty poor, even with her Pure Blooded Devil (A) boosting them. And she had no Noble Phantasm which was to be expected.
Still, so long as she spent a good while studying, her Worthlessness (B) could quickly become a broken skill but skilled opponents could still deal with her pretty easily after figuring her out.
Anyways, after all of this, it was time for Jun to leave it all behind for a while and get started in the Nasuverse. Fate Apocrypha first, then he would see.
