Bab 103: Ahh Crapbaskets
I laughed as I watched King Arturia struggle to take down the Epic Assassin Spirit blocking her path from saving her master. This was the coup de grace of my preparations. The defenses of the Temple were all deactivated and hidden, allowing Archer EMIYA to sneak through in his effort to rescue the kidnapped Shirou.
Got to love a protagonist who is completely helpless and carries a magic treasure of incredible quality we could yoink and transfer to Wanda. The Sheath of King Arturia, Avalon, boosted healing to an incredible degree, allowing the bearer to survive anything as long as the heart and head are intact. Quite handy for the squishiest member of our team.
Archer in the show would go on to save Shirou with little problem, but here Jack was lying in wait for his paradoxical ass. She'd subdue him, allowing Medea to shank him with Rule Breaker - her noble phantasm - and transfer his contract to Linda. Quite the deadly ranged force.
The defeated looking man emerged from the temple, obviously killing his past self had failed to blot him from existence and we all emerged from the woodwork, quite literally because of concealment magic and subdued Saber so she could get the same treatment but with Wanda as her new master.
We'd later kill Assassin and use his body to summon a True Assassin, but for now I cracked out the Horn of Party Hardy so we could celebrate a job well done. No sooner had the drinking begun when a voice sounded out from above that put my quad somewhere in my throat.
"How very timely of you mongrels to begin the festivities, you must have known that this king was coming to bring you a gift." Gilgamesh shouted from atop his flying throne, Vimana.
Then he yeeted a chained up Berserker Heracles at us.
Ahh crapbaskets.
The chains around Heracles became loose and he took them up in one hand and his stone sword in the other. How to describe fighting a mother fucker who can nullify any attack below the B rank of Fate's damage system, self rezzes a dozen times, and is so much more physically powerful than me that my usual, beat him with your wrestling strategy is completely out the window.
Think Lizard Brain, think.
"Gae Bolg!" I heard Lancer shout as his spear immediately appeared in Medea's bosom. Rewriting causality to guarantee the hit.
I burned a command seal to give Rider the instant cast of Bellerophon and she turned into a beam of light that obliterated Lancer before he retrieved his spear and then wheeled about to stomp Berserker to death until her strength gave out.
The man self revived and smashed Assassin into paste before Arturia could move in to engage him. Wanda used a command seal to quick cast Excalibur to take more of the berserker's lives from the pool, Bellerophon and Excalibur both striking hard enough to deplete multiple health bars.
Linda and Archer were trying to pin down Gilgamesh with the help of Jack's biotics and the man laughed uproariously as he fired his treasures at them and blocked their attacks with summoned shields all while sitting on his throne and shouting sexual obscenities at Saber. He really wanted to stuff her throat with more meat that she could swallow.
Watch out lad, she is part dragon. You might lose your most valuable treasure.
I coated myself - armor and all - in RcCells and activated Reinforcement. I went in hot with the Hammer of Might to smash Heracles with everything I got. His fucking head exploded, surprising me, and that surprise got me clipped in the head with his stone sword on the quick rez.
It is a testament to my broken levels of tankyness that my head held together and I only needed a few minutes to clear out the catastrophic brain damage his attack inflicted.
Wanda queued up another use of Excalibur to drop a few more lives from the guy while my head spun, but then I saw something that had to be a hallucination as it looked like the big guy managed to wade through the river of sword light and grab Arturia's head in his super meaty hand.
"NO, you fucking mongrel! I command you to stop!" Gilgamesh shouted.
But Berserker don't stop, Berserker don't know meaning of stop, but Berserker know crush.
And crush he did.
I feel some professional envy from the ease and devastation of that head crush.
Oh hey, maybe he has come to sign my head crushers T-Shirt.
NO he has come to Hulk smash.
I have never been on the receiving end of this maneuver, and let me tell you that I am happy that the Krogan blood rage completely cuts off pain. I heard the sounds of my bones snapping, but never felt them.
All of a sudden the ride came to the end and I saw my lovely wife, Jack, with her ebony blade stabbed into Heracles's back and out his clavicle, then I saw Linda and Archer eat shit without her support.
Seeing her opportunity with the giant so occupied, Medusa stabbed both her daggers into the demigod's eyes using her Monstrous Strength ability to get through the God Hand, then she snapped his neck on the revive to bring him down for the last time.
I got up to my feet through the use of healing magic boosting my regeneration to explosive levels and we faced off against Gilgamesh and his endless glowing circles of doom. Me, Jack, Kat, Wanda, and Rider versus a guy who's offensive capabilities are fucking endless.
I threw up an absorption shield that would take the piss out of anything coming from his general direction, spread my wings and shot an endless barrage of ghoul spikes at him, and swung the Hammer of Might at anything in range.
Jack slashed incoming weapons with her sword and its trail of inky destruction and battered anything that got through with all four of her Red Tail Rc tails.
Kat fired off a plasma shotgun with each hand and eight more with her Red Scale Rc tentacles.
Medusa's body grew larger and larger under the influence of her Monstrous Strength trying to push her into becoming the Gorgon. She couldn't under the current Grail system, but she could get closer and closer to that level of power. She battered Gil's attacks with multiple copies of her chain spikes that she could control telepathically.
Wanda brought up the rear, firing an Absorption Cannon over her shoulder right at Gil who blocked it with a shield that was slowly disintegrating.
Even with all the crazy shit coming from our side it still felt like the Charge of the Light Brigade. My Absorption shield striped magical effects like healing inhibitors first, and physical force second, and as we charged the seated asshole on his throne that barely hovered inches above the ground, I took hit after hit despite our efforts and eventually collapsed with a handful of weapons in each of my legs and more everywhere else besides my head.
Jack took point and started back up the shield with lesser effect than mine and was also quickly overwhelmed and replaced by Kat. Kat held point with decreasing efficiency as each off her tentacles were taken out, dropping their shotguns, while I desperately pulled Gil's noble phantasms out of my body.
Gil's faint smile didn't drop even as his shield was disintegrated at which point he took Wanda out with a sword to the chest and Kat ran into his trap card, a series of spears that leapt from the floor in front of him, impaling Kat and the Chains of Heaven came out to bind Rider.
"What other outcome did you mongrels expect?" He laughed as he stood from his chair for the first time, "Hmm. Speak up, worm. This King cannot hear you."
"I said…'' Kat rasped, "You should have aimed for the head."
In a flash of red Kat's tongue extended as a sharp Red Scale Tentacle and drilled the King of Heroes between his perfect eyebrows, a no reflex kill strike.
All of Gilgamesh's treasures aetherialized after his death, allowing me to check on Wanda, who Avalon was taking care of nicely and Kat, who's wounds weren't healing despite the weapons no longer obstructing her.
The bastard used cursed weapons on her.
We kept the peace as Jack and I held her hands.
—--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I've got a cup to destroy." I said quietly after she passed.
"Yeah." Jack nodded.
I made my way down into the caves under the temple and found the golden cup waiting for me and Rider as winners of the Holy Grail War.
"With that much power stored up, it really can grant wishes. It's not the omnipotent object that was promised, but it is pretty close." I told Medusa as we approached, "Or at least it would be if it wasn't rotten to the core after the Third Grail War."
"Master?" Medusa requested clarification.
"Step back." I commanded without the use of a command seal and channeled all my Wishcraft into my hammer with the wish of destroying the Grail. The Hammer erupted into white hot flames and I brought the fury of a demigod wielding a divine relic weapon down on that spiteful cup.
In the heart of the conflagration opened a black portal with a red event horizon and from it emerged a golem in the shape of Angra Mainyu made from the black mud, riding a tidal wave of that wretched filth.
Might have fucked this one up.
"Your power is mine!" the disgusting creature slammed into me and sunk into my skin.
"Master!" Medusa shouted as she ran right in to pull me out of the rising tide of mud.
She failed and we were both pulled into the shit.
I kept waiting for the Krogan powers to kick in and shut off the horrible burning pain throughout my body that threatened to drive me mad, but it never did, and I had to sack up and fight this bastard out of my mind no matter what.
Fortunately, greater beings than him have tried and failed to make me their bitch.

JManM So... Linda proved that Jack always protects number 1, and that number one is Grunt. Kat proved that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. And finally, Grunt proved not to tangled with Berserker Heracles, cause that guy is strong AF and far faster than most fictional beefcakes.
I am going to be releaseing a Bonus Chapter as a thank you for all the people who have pushed this story back up the lists and onto the trending section once more. We haven't yet reached a thousand Powerstones or a hundred Reviews, but we are halfway their on the stones.
The next chapter is going to be the make or break it chapter as the stories formula is changed for ACT 3. I don't know how long ACT 3 will be. It could be longer than ACTS 1 & 2 (over 50,000 and 90,000 words resectively) or it could end quickly. I doubt it though as the first world I have que'd up is Guild Wars 2 and I love that game. ACT 3 will also include things like the Big 3 anime, the much awaited Warhammer 40K arc, and will wrap things up in Dragon Ball when Grunt gets yoinked by Bulma's wish for the perfect boyfriend.
Anyway, lots of writing still to do, so if you want more of this story and you want it now, help this story get over a thousand powerstones per voting cycle, leave a review in our quest to get over a hundred of those things, double down on all those goals and really put me in the hotseat, or donate to the cause at ko - fi . com / jmanm and not only get the bonus chapters but also enjoy my Simp level shoutouts.
Bab 104: ACT 3: Trigger Warning
"You damn dirty apes!" I shouted as I pounded my fist on the ground after pulling myself and Rider from the tainted black mud, "You couldn't let a lizard be more glorious than all of you so you flung your shit at him till he turned into… this fucking wretched monkey!"
"Master. It is not appropriate to call people apes and monkeys." Medusa stated as she patted me on the back.
"Look at me!" I shouted and pulled her blindfold off, revealing her pale eyes and square pupils while easily resisting their petrification effects, "I look like I am ninety seven percent chimp and one hundred percent angsty edgelord teenager!"
And I meant it dear audience. I Grax, the God Emperor of Krogankind formerly known as Grunt, have been defiled, violated, and turned into a goddamned human!
When that bastard Angry Mango tried to hijack my meat bicycle he took it to the shop and pimped it out in his preferred style. No more scales and plates, just skin and hair! Skin covered in ancient curses and profanity and black hair that screamed that I am an anime protagonist with a red headband that I actually would have liked if this wasn't a situation where everything is awful.
I unwrapped the broody black bandages off of my thick wrists and ankles. I am a man, not an emo kickboxer. At least Angra Mainyu hadn't managed to actually revert my physique to that of a teenage Shirou Emiya, and I was still eight feet tall and a huge jacked man. My brown skin rippled over massive muscle insertions and produced visible striations that my thick Krogan hide would never show.
Silver lining, I may no longer be a glorious dragon man, but at least my muscles have never looked better.
"Yes, master. Your muscles are quite the show." Medusa assured me.
"Did I say that out loud?" I asked the woman.
"No, master. We are still telepathically linked and you were shouting that line in your mind like a form of self hypnosis to reassure yourself that you are still the top dog and that not all your charm comes from 'Lizard Swag'." Medusa answered.
Fuck.
At least Medusa was hot as hell and built for sin. She was self conscious of her already lengthy height before the use of Monstrous Strength made her even taller and filled her out like a proper earth goddess. Her vast tracks of feminine acreage would have to be explored later. After I managed to convince Wanda and Jack that I am actually their husband and put together a proper cremation for Kat and Linda. We'd see them again some day, of that I have no doubt. There are too many ways to rez people in the multiverse, and push comes to shove I can almost guarantee that we will someday end up in Dragon Ball and those Namekian dragon balls will do the heavy lifting.
I'd have to bind their souls to the ashes using necromancy, but they'd already agreed to this kind of solution should we ever be parted through death. Jack and I would never die as long as the other lived, but the same couldn't be said of the others. Things may have gone to shit in this verse, but nothing is over.
I took up my hammer and made my way up to what was left of my family after what was one of the most glorious battles we'd ever participated in.
"Drop your… is that a skirt?" Jack demanded and I complied.
"Oh thank God." Wanda sighed in relief as they looked at my still glorious and smooth cock.
After getting Linda and Kat bound to their urns, I ran my clawed human fingers over the controls of my nanohive and set them to resizing my Dragonslayers gear. I'd now have two jackets and pairs of pants, but would need to look into getting some new underwear, socks, and boots. Eh, a late night nano invasion of a department store and that will be handled.
With my need for a new wardrobe solved, I tapped away on the console to get the nanoswarm to repair and resize everyone's armor, and while I did this I talked to Medusa.
"What about you?" I asked the gorgeous woman, "We may still be linked, but that body of yours is now real and producing your own energy. You are free to go wherever pleases you."
"I'd like to stay by your side, master." She told me.
"Good. I was hoping you'd be interested in a more permanent partnership." I grinned.
"You were practically screaming your desire though the link earlier." She told me.
"And yet you stay." I smirked.
"Would you like to feel mine?" she grinned.
I nodded and all my brain blood flowed down to my boner as I felt her lust for me.
I guess it isn't all Lizard Swag after all.

Three days of vigorous stress testing my prowess as a lover and the results were in. I was undiminished as the heavyweight champion of the bedroom. Whatever I had lost in feral fantasy had been more than made up for in human smoothness and sensitivity. My rope game was still on point despite the loss of half my testicles, little less than a quart, but hey, half my gear is gone.
I also learned a valuable lesson: Medusa is one hell of a freak, and let's leave it at that.
We ended up spending a few months touring this version of Earth, taking the time to decompress after a near whole party wipe. We handled it well, but the stress took time to bleed out. Getting smacked around by three of the greatest demigods of all time can do that to you.
I also needed to adapt to my body. I'd spent far more time as a lizard than I ever had as a human, and though many of the memories I'd absorbed dealt with moving in this type of body, all of those memories had been translated to the muscle memory of a giant lizard man, so I was dealing with over a thousand years of ingrained instinct.
I still freaked people out in a crowd, so at least some things never change.
Body hair was a thing now. Angra Mainyu may have tried to pose as a Japanese teenager, but the guy was an Arab though and through. Demigod status kicked in and kept things from getting out of hand like growing on my back, but my beard was on point. Thick and controlled, lined up perfectly with no need for a razor.
It's good to be a god.
The Horn of Party Hardy was a godsend during this time, and I hoped that we would hit some kind of cultivator world next so we could pick up a supply of dank heavenly herb. You know the kind that the young master's grandpa is hitting constantly while he is in his secluded cultivation that must not be disturbed unless his dickhead grandson pisses off some gold finger toting MC and now it's up to him to take vengeance for the family's face or something. The kind of shit that makes a guy so high he thinks it's a good idea to run off and kill some teenager over not getting up from his grandson's favorite booth at the local five star restaurant or refusing to back down at an auction.
I want that shit in my life.
Eventually it was time to move along before we got caught up in more Fate bullshit like Chaldea showing up. FGO might be an excellent waifu collector game, but I wasn't touching that shit with a ten foot pole until I was an actual god and or ate Superman.
After getting liquored up just right I proved that even in a human shaped body, I am all Krogan.

And the guy who has spent nearly three novels worth of words completely embracing his role as a giant space monster has become human.
For those who were triggered by Grax referring to himself as an Ape, Monkey, and Chimp, all I can say is fuck you. Those are our words.
This chapter is were I will likely have broken the fanbases hearts and betrayed their expectations and desires. And for that I am sorry, but I needed something big to kick off the final act and once I was thinking about Fate I knew where things were going.
The Holy Grail Mud brought Kotomine back from the dead and gave Gilgamesh a new body, and it has continued its shenangins here. Grunt succeeded in actually destroying the Grail permanantly, but paid a big price afterwards when he left himself open to Angry Mango's possesion attempt.
I am on the fence about giving Grax Heaven's Feel. The whole Grail system was just a rouse to help the Einzburgs get Heaven's Feel back. Basically, Grax would never run out of magic power again and would be able to live on as a immutable soul even if his body was completely destroyed.
Let me know what people think about that power up.
