Continuing where we left off....
***************
Narrator's perspective...
***************
Ritsuka and Fou heard Herta's words, leaving them both paralyzed due to how absurd her question was.
Ritsuka: I'm sorry, I think I heard wrong. What did you say again, Herta?
Ritsuka said this with a nervous smile, his brain refusing to register Herta's words.
Herta: I said if you are able to have children as a servant.
Herta repeats what she said, confirming to Ritsuka and Fou that they were not mistaken.
Fou: Fou! Kyu! (Special translation: This can only be the work of that damn Merlin's illusion! Where are you, you damned Incubus, son of a bitch! If this is his work, I'm going to kill myself to wake up from this nightmare!)
To test if Fou is not in an illusion, he bites his own paw and he feels pain confirming that he is not in an illusion.
Fou: Fou! (Special translation: Shit!)
While Fou is dealing with Herta's words in his own way, Ritsuka is looking at the Emanator of Erudition with an expression of pure shock.
Ritsuka:Herta..... How the hell did you come up with that crazy idea?!
Herta:It's not a crazy idea. It's something I've been thinking about for a while now and the arrival of your AI only strengthened it. Now answer my question. Are you capable or not?
Herta said this persisting that Ritsuka answers the question and Ritsuka himself has a hesitant expression.
However, before he can answer, Fou jumps off his shoulder and starts to leave Ritsuka's office.
Ritsuka:Hey! Fou where are you going?!
Fou:Fou! Fou! (Special translation:I'm not going to watch this shit! I'm going for a walk.)
Fou leaves Ritsuka's office leaving him alone with Herta who is still waiting for his answer.
Ritsuka: *sigh* Okay, I don't know why you decided to be interested in this, but servants are not capable of having children.
Herta: Are you sure about that? Don't tell me that Heroic Spirits who have a habit of breaking or circumventing the rules of the Throne of Heroes can't find a way to have children?
Ritsuka is silent for three seconds after hearing what Herta said, after all Ritsuka knows better than anyone that the servants of Chaldea have already broken several rules about summoning and several other things, besides the fact that he himself being a servant should theoretically be impossible.
Ritsuka: I can't argue about the "breaking rules" part. However! I know that there are exceptions to this point. That yes, it is theoretically possible, since there is a friend of mine who has a mother who is a Heroic Spirit and a human father.
Ritsuka: 💭 Although Erice's world is a bit bizarre that completely opens more questions than answers.
Herta hears Ritsuka's words and stands with her arms and legs crossed, looking at her assistant with a raised eyebrow.
Herta: So only female servants are capable of having children?
Ritsuka: No. The only reason my friend was born is because her mother is a goddess of creation, so creating a life is something within her domain.
The moment Ritsuka said this, his mind begins to register the weight of his words and the great possibilities that this applies to certain female servants of his who are Goddesses of Creation.
Ritsuka:💭Wait. Doesn't that mean that Quetzalcoatl and Tiamat....Oh..... There's also Kukulkan, although I'm not really sure, although she's ORT so she easily breaks this rule, there's also BB with her "Self Modification" skill, the existence of Sakura Five is a perfect example of this.
(A/N: Remember this detail my friends. BB is technically a milf. Since Melt, Lip, KP, Kazura and Violet can be considered her daughters.)
At that moment, Ritsuka's mind thinks about a certain group of servants that he is very close to.
Ritsuka:💭 Does this rule apply to Morgan and Artoria Caster? I know that fairies are incapable of having children, but they are both fairies from Paradise, so they are completely different from normal fairies...Wait a minute. Wouldn't that also apply to Merlin?
At the same moment that Ritsuka's thoughts end up taking him to Arthur Pendragon's Merlin, he starts to feel chills on his body.
Ritsuka:💭 Suddenly it makes a lot of sense why Lady Avalon (Merlin Prototype) was trying to invade my mind a few times...
Ritsuka realizes that he has gotten carried away by his thoughts and he returns to the subject at hand.
Ritsuka: *Ahem*. Sorry about that. What I was trying to say is that there are exceptions, but in general it is impossible for a servant to have children and that applies to me too since I am not using a human body.
Herta: Are you absolutely sure about this? After all, you did not die and from what you told me when you returned from Jarilo-VI you said that your real body is in a coma. So why is a person who is still alive a Heroic Spirit?
Ritsuka: That is something that I do not have a concrete answer to, I only have theories.
Ritsuka had told Herta everything that happened in Jarilo-VI, however, he did not tell Herta about Yog-Sothoth's involvement at the time that Ritsuka attracted Nanoock's presence.
This made Herta very curious, wanting to know how Ritsuka managed to repel Nanoock's presence, but he refused to answer her.
Herta: Since your situation is still unknown... So what's the harm in seeing if you follow this rule or not?
Ritsuka: Huh?
Herta said this, catching Ritsuka by surprise, and she took advantage of this moment and Herta used her Emanator of Erudition powers and she switched places with Ritsuka.
Now he was sitting on his couch while Herta was standing and she took the opportunity to sit on his lap.
Herta: Let's do this little experiment between the two of us.
Herta said this with a slight smile on her face, and Ritsuka's face turned red and he had a surprised expression.
Ritsuka: What? Have you lost your mind, Herta?! Do you have any idea what you're suggesting?
Ritsuka said this and he tried to leave, but Herta grabbed Ritsuka's arms and held him tightly. Herta may be a scientist, but that doesn't mean she's physically weak, besides the fact that Ritsuka isn't using his full strength to get out of the situation he's in at the moment.
Herta: I'm perfectly sane, Ritsuka. I don't understand why you're resisting, after all this is just an experiment.
Herta said this with her clothes slowly disappearing without her having to take them off manually and Ritsuka got nervous and irritated by the casual way Herta was taking this.
Herta: You should feel honored that I'm willing to do such an act with you.
Ritsuka: Honored? From an old woman like you? I doubt anyone has managed to sleep with you.
Ritsuka said this provoking Herta back who got an irritated expression and she let go of his arms and started pulling his cheeks.
Herta is completely naked at this moment, only the large strands of her hair are covering the important parts of her body.
Herta: You have the balls to insult a woman like me to my face with that stupid pretty face of yours. Well, you should know that I have several people who are interested in me!
Herta said this with a forced smile and Ritsuka lets out a laugh even though his cheeks are being pulled.
Ritsuka: Seriously? Then where are these "interested" people? Because all I see are your idiot fan club and your researcher "friends". Admit it, Herta, you have never shown interest in anyone. Because now you are suddenly interested in me, I must remind you that you are just wasting your time.
Herta releases Ritsuka's cheeks, who is looking directly into her eyes even though he is eager to look at Herta's attractive body.
Herta: You are right. I've never seen interest in anyone, after all I didn't see any benefit in it, but I admit that I'm... curious about certain things and what I'm doing is one of those things.
Herta said this leaving certain implications in her words wandering in Ritsuka's head who is surprised to see that the tone Herta is speaking in is serious and no longer has the sign of casualness and disinterest he is used to.
Taking advantage of the moment Herta decides to hold the sides of Ritsuka's coat and starts pulling his face towards hers and at the moment their lips were about to connect a certain AI interrupts them both.
BB: What do you think you're doing with my dear Senpai, you witch!
BB said this with a pouty expression and a jealous expression, she teleported to Ritsuka's office where she saw Herta sitting naked on Ritsuka's lap.
Ritsuka: BB?!
Herta: I thought the barrier I put up would keep you out for a good while, but it seems I miscalculated your ability. By the way, I'm not just any witch, I'm an elegant witch, thank you very much.
Ritsuka is surprised to see BB while Herta is a little irritated to see the AI.
BB: I should have guessed what you were planning judging by your expression similar to a certain fairy queen witch I know very well. And sure enough, I decide to come to my Senpai's office and I find you trying to take my place!
BB said this with a pout and then she sat on the couch and put Ritsuka's head on her giant breasts with her clothes disappearing too.
Ritsuka: Hey, BB! What are you doing?
Ritsuka tries to speak, but BB's breasts are muffling his voice.
BB: I'm his lover, so I'm the one who has the right to use his body!
Ritsuka: 💭 I'm not your doll BB!
Herta looks at BB with an irritated expression, but she still hasn't given up on her goal.
Herta: Do you really think I'm going to let you get in the way of my experiment?
BB: I already know what you're planning to do, Herta, so know that this attempt of yours is useless.
Herta: That's what we'll see...
Sparks come out of Herta and BB's eyes while Ritsuka can already predict what will happen next and he is already mentally preparing himself.
Ritsuka 💭 I hope Stelle doesn't get too suspicious if I take too long to get to the train.
*******
A/N: I know there are people who were expecting a lemon chapter, I'm sorry to you, but unfortunately I couldn't write that kind of chapter. I wrote a lemon chapter in a prototype story and I asked a friend of mine to read the lemon part of the story to see if it was good. It was a huge embarrassment that I refused to write those parts.
For more details, the lemon part that I wrote is Ritsuka sleeping with Rias after he kicked the phoenix chicken's ass.
************
Hours later...
***********
After the "incident" in the office, Ritsuka took BB to the sealed zone to complete one last task so they could go to the astral express.
The task was to manage Ruan Mei's little creations that she abandoned in the zone.
During this, Ritsuka and BB ended up creating some little creatures that look like their friends from the Astral Express.
When the task was done, Ritsuka and BB were heading towards the Astral Express to meet up with the remains of their friends.
BB: Hmmmm.....
Ritsuka: What's up now, BB?
BB:Nothing! I'm not even a little bit mad that you were willing to be the father of that scientist witch's creations!
BB said this poutingly while carrying some little creatures they had created that they were planning to take to the train.
Ritsuka: Look. I admit that during the months I spent with her I felt something for her, but because of who she is, I didn't pursue that feeling. I didn't expect her curiosity to lead to that. I have no intention of being a father, especially in the situation I'm in at the moment. Besides, BB, you know very well that we servants can't have children.
BB: Erice-san's existence doesn't make me very optimistic.
Ritsuka: Erice's situation is the exception of the exceptions! But if it will make you feel better in the future if everything goes well we can try to start a family together.
(A/N: Kiana: Am I a joke to you?)
Ritsuka said this being embarrassed and BB looks at Ritsuka's suggestion being shocked and then she gives Ritsuka a tight hug.
BB: You're the best, Senpai! I love you so much!
Ritsuka: Me! Be careful! You're going to let the little ones fall!
BB ignores Ritsuka's words and she continues to hug Ritsuka, being too happy to care about the looks they are getting around them.
Fou:Fou.... (Special translation:The man has no idea what Pandora's box he has opened.
**************
Meanwhile....
*************
At the same time that Ritsuka and BB are leaving the space station, Herta is still in her assistant's office.
Herta is still naked, but the difference is that her hair is messy and she has certain marks spread across her body.
Herta: Hmm.... So this is the mana transfer ritual he said.... I certainly feel stronger.
Herta said this with a neutral expression until she feels a certain irritation inside her.
Herta: Unfortunately the results were not as I imagined, but that doesn't mean it was all in vain, I got good data, but still.... Why am I still not satisfied?
Herta said this to herself until after a few seconds she spoke again.
Herta: Ritsuka, one day you will leave forever and I will no longer be able to continue our experiment together... Hehe who would have thought I would be angry about this.
Throughout her life, Herta has only cared about the results of her experiment on the simulated universe and the answers about the universe that it would bring. She, like the other members of the Genius Society, are driven by immense ambition and greed for knowledge.
It doesn't matter how you seek this knowledge, as long as it gives results that further expand the truth about the universe, then you are welcome to the Genius Society.
Herta knows this rule more than anyone else; the lives of the people on the space station are not of much importance to her as long as they do not interfere with her plans.
However, with the arrival of Ritsuka in her life, certain things changed. She met a person who in her view should have died a long time ago, but he persists and continues to live.
Ritsuka is a true anomaly for Herta, an anomaly that she never tires of wanting to discover what interesting things he can achieve.
What happened in Jarilo-VI is a perfect example of this, in addition to that weapon called "Black Barrel" that scares and enchants Herta at the same time.
Herta wants to know more about Ritsuka, seeing him doing things that anyone would think were impossible, but when she finds out that he will eventually leave forever and return to Chaldea...
This bothers her much more than she expected.
Herta: Ruan Mei was right... I really have changed. Hehehe... how interesting.
Herta finds it funny to discover something that her colleague discovered at first sight, besides the fact that Herta is excited about this new development.
Herta loves new and interesting things, they are things that make life less boring and what Ritsuka did to her is no different.
Herta: I better make a call. I'll talk to an expert in this area.
Herta gets up from the couch and her clothes start to reappear in the blink of an eye. Once dressed, Herta decides to contact a colleague of hers.
Herta: Hello, Ruan Mei. Are you available to talk? Yes? Good. I have a few questions for you about what you have discovered about biological life.
****************
Meanwhile at the Ever Flame Mansion....
*****************
After Duke Inferno lost his phase flame due to Ritsuka's attack, the leader of the Annihilation Gang felt an enormous pain in his soul.
This is because of Ritsuka's black flames that, despite being very far away, managed to hit him directly thanks to the phase flame that gave Ritsuka the chance to attack Duke Inferno.
However, this attack was felt by two individuals from the mansion who immediately entered Duke Inferno's throne room.
Caterina: Old man! I felt the presence of that bastard! Where is he?!
Caterina said, who immediately became furious when she felt Ritsuka's flames and she went after the source that led her to the throne room.
(Photo)
Constance: Caterina, my sister. Being rude and ill-mannered will alert your prey. I thought you knew how to be subtle when hunting.
Constance, Catarina's sister, said, with a sadistic smile on her face.
(Photo)
Caterina: Don't start, Constance! Or you'll be next on my list!
Constance: Oh, spare me your empty threats. We both know that you're a dog that only knows how to bark instead of bite.
Constance said this, provoking her sister who, judging by her expression and the grinding of her teeth, was about to attack until...
Duke Inferno: Silence! I didn't raise you two to start a silly conflict!
Duke Inferno immediately puts order in the mansion and his daughters fall silent.
Duke Inferno: As you said, Catarina. Yes. That boy called Ritsuka Fujimaru was here. More specifically his black flames that entered the mansion.
Duke Inferno said calmly to his daughters who remained silent until Catarina answered.
Catarina: So he was the one who left you like this?
Catarina said this pointing to the huge claw scar that is clearly visible on Duke Inferno's chest.
Duke Inferno: Hahahaha! Yes my daughter. He was the one who left me like this. Isn't that interesting? A boy like him blessed by the savior carrying a flame capable of affecting the soul. It's no surprise that he was chosen by Destruction.
Duke Inferno said this laughing like a maniac not caring about the agonizing sensation he is feeling right now.
Constance: So his name is Ritsuka.... Isn't that the name of Madam Herta's dear assistant director?
Constance said this keeping her sadistic smile and Catarina stands with her arms crossed.
Caterina: So his name is Ritsuka. Great. It'll be easier for me to hunt him down and return the favor for what he did!
Constance: Oh yes. You'll definitely be able to get revenge on him. Should I remind you of the little gift he gave you when you failed to assassinate Robin?
Constance said this mentioning the burn scar that's on Caterina's chest and neck.
(A/N: It's like the scar Meliodas gave Ban in Nanatsu no Taizai.)
Caterina: That was just a coincidence. If that bastard hadn't been there, that sparrow bitch would already be dead!
Caterina said this cursing Robin and Constance shook her head in disappointment.
Constance: Watch your language, my dear sister. We are ladies to say such profanities. I had advised you to do that mission with a little more subtlety, but as always you don't listen to me. Maybe I should deal with him personally by inviting him to a tea party with me. Hehehe...
Constance said this with a laugh that shows the malice inside her and Catarina gets furious when she hears her sister's idea.
Catarina: What?! He is my prey, Constance! Find another man so you can suck and discard memories!
Constance: Ara~. Are you jealous, Caterina? I thought you didn't care much for that boy so I thought I could have a chance with him.
Before the argument between the sisters could go too far again, Duke Inferno intervened in the conversation between the two.
Duke Inferno: This is no time for pointless arguments! Constance, my dear daughter. Tell me. Did our invitation to Penacony arrive?
Constance: Yes, Father. We received the invitation from the Family.
When Constance said this, Duke Inferno started laughing like a madman again.
Duke Inferno: Hahahaha! Great! Great! Then we can start the plan I assigned to you. Don't worry about the boy, Catarina. Since he has a connection with that singer, he will certainly be present, after all, he is her shadow. All we have to do is cut that connection and make him understand the true calling that Destruction gave him. That way he will be able to spread the name of our savior to the rest of the universe, Hahahaha!!!!
Duke Inferno said this laughing so loudly that his voice is echoing in the entire mansion.
While Duke Inferno is laughing loudly, a certain individual arrives at the entrance of the mansion. It is a wandering woman with long purple hair and a powerful sword at her waist.
???: Here you are.
The wanderer said, looking at the mansion with a neutral expression showing no feelings in her eyes.
(Photo)
The wanderer begins to enter the mansion where Duke Inferno receives an unwanted visitor.
************
Astral Express
**********
Ritsuka and BB boarded the train as the group began to leave the space station.
Ritsuka introduced BB to the rest of their friends who were surprised to see one of the Heroic Spirits that Ritsuka had hired on the train.
Ritsuka: Everyone. This is BB. BB, these are my friends from the Astral Express. Stelle, March 7, Dan Heng, Welt, Himeko, and Pon-Pon.
BB: Hello everyone from the Astral Express! This is the adorable and sexy BB-chan! As an AI, I am in charge of my Senpai's mental health.
BB said this while striking a pose and Dan Heng sighed with a hand on his forehead.
Stelle: March. Can you see that I can see? Look at the size of those things... They're bigger than my head.
Stelle said this while looking directly at BB's giant breasts, while she was muttering to March 7 who blushed in embarrassment upon hearing Stelle.
March 7: Hey! Don't be rude. She's a new member, so don't give a bad impression!
Stelle: But you have to admit that those things are too big. That easily surpasses Himeko's!
Stelle said this, making March 7 hesitate in her next words.
March 7: W-Well...
Dan Heng: You know I'm behind you two, right?
Dan Heng said this while standing behind the duo with a dry neutral expression on his face.
Stelle/March 7: We know.
Dan Heng: *Sigh*.
Welt: Ritsuka said that your class is one of the extra classes?
BB: Yes! I'm part of the extra class servants, mine is Mooncancer.
Himeko: I'm surprised to see that an AI can become a Heroic Spirit.
Ritsuka: That's because BB is a special AI from the Mooncell.
Himeko: Mooncell?
Himeko said, not knowing what Mooncell is, and Ritsuka sighed, knowing that he would have to explain the parallel world in the future where Mooncell is active.
BB: Mooncell is a super computer that is on the moon that has recorded all of human history.
BB said this while showing a hologram with the image of Mooncell, and Welt was quite surprised.
Welt: A super computer on the moon? So why Kian...
Due to Welt's surprise, he realized what he was saying and he stopped himself immediately.
Stelle: If you are an AI, then how did you manage to get here?
Stelle said this, and BB had a sadistic smile on her face, and she made a fox mask with sakura petal details appear.
(A/N: It's the same mask as Sparkle, the difference is that BB's mask has sakura petals.)
BB: Let's just say that BB-chan has friends in high places
BB said this, causing a chain reaction in Himeko and Welt who immediately understood the meaning of the mask that BB showed.
Welt: Are you a Masked Fool?
Welt said this with a serious expression immediately putting the rest of the group on alert and BB continues to smile.
BB: What if I am? What are you going to do about it?
BB said this teasing Ritsuka's friends who were not surprised to hear what BB said.
Ritsuka: Guys. Something you need to know, BB has a mischievous side, so sometimes she can play some pranks, but she is not our enemy.
Ritsuka said this in a calm tone calming their friends and BB pouted.
Himeko: Are you sure she can be trusted, Ritsuka?
Ritsuka: Yes. Of course BB's methods can be a bit extreme, but I guarantee that she loves humanity just like us.
Ritsuka said this with a smile on his face while BB was embarrassed by his compliment and stood there with her arms crossed.
BB: Why do you have to ruin my fun, Senpai?! I have an image as the last boss to maintain!
With BB's change of tone, the atmosphere of the train returned to normal.
Ritsuka: Hehehe. Changing the subject. After I took care of some things at the station, I decided to bring some companions on the train.
Ritsuka said this as he released a compartment with the small creations that BB and I had taken care of in the sealed zone.
(Photo)
Himeko: Oh my...
Stelle: Oh?
March 7: Oh my God! Such cute and adorable little friends!
Immediately March 7 picked up the Critter that looked like her and she immediately started taking pictures.
Stelle held the Critter that looked like a trash can and she had an expression of pure admiration.
Stelle: You're perfect... You're the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life!
Stelle said this while crying tears of happiness while Dan Heng was holding his Critter and staring at it silently.
Dan Heng:.....
Dan Heng's Critter:.....
Dan Heng may be silent, but deep down he liked his companion.
Himeko: Hehehe you're adorable.
Himeko said this smiling when she saw her Critter and Welt was surprised to see a Critter that looked like him.
Himeko: What are these little ones, Ritsuka?
Ritsuka: They are Ruan Mei's creations that I ended up having to take care of and these are the creations that ended up having a similar appearance to you guys, so I decided to bring them on the train, I hope that won't be a problem.
Himeko: Don't worry, Ritsuka. These little ones are adorable and I don't see any problem with them staying.
March 7: Yes! I'll take care of them with a lot of love!
March 7 said this celebrating the news that they will be able to keep the Critters.
At that moment Fou jumps off Ritsuka's shoulder and he starts doing something unexpected.
Fou: Fou! Fou! Fou!
Immediately the Critters stand side by side like a formation of soldiers with Fou being the instructor.
Fou: Fou! Kyuu! Fou!
Critters: Meow!
Ritsuka sees this and finds it strange what Fou is doing since it seems like he is giving orders to the little creatures.
Ritsuka: What are you doing, Fou?
Fou: Fou! (Special translation: I'm teaching these maggots the pecking order.)
Ritsuka: I see...
Actually, Ritsuka didn't understand anything Fou said, but he assumes that Fou and the Critters are getting along well.
With the tasks that Ritsuka had to do at the space station resolved, the group can now return to their travels.
However, before the next stop was decided, it was time for everyone to go to sleep, but before everyone could go to their respective rooms, Himeko informed Ritsuka of a certain problem.
Himeko: Ritsuka, could you do me a small favor?
Ritsuka: What do you need, Himeko?
Himeko: Well, Stelle's room isn't ready yet, so I want to know if it's possible for her to spend the night in your room?
Himeko's words left Ritsuka and BB surprised.
Ritsuka: What? Why me? Wouldn't it be a better idea for Stelle to stay in March 7's room?
Stelle: March 7 moves around too much and she snores really loudly.
Stelle said that and March 7 turned red with anger.
March 7: I don't do any of that when I'm sleeping! In fact, you're the one who does it!
Ritsuka: I'm not surprised to hear that. I don't need to ask about Dan Heng since I already have the answer to that. So I'm the only option for her to have a room to sleep in?
Himeko: Yes. Or Stelle will have to sleep on the living room couch again.
Ritsuka is a little surprised to hear that Stelle slept on the train couch.
BB: Hey! I'm the one who has the right to sleep with my Senpai,isn't that right, Stellaron-san?
Stelle: I have a name, you know.
Himeko: I know you might be upset, but it will only be for a short period of time.
Ritsuka takes a deep breath knowing that BB and Stelle will probably get into an argument, but he also doesn't want Stelle to sleep on the couch.
Ritsuka: Okay. I think my bed has enough space for me to share with Stelle.
BB: Hmm..... I wanted to sleep with Senpai alone, but I'll make an exception just this once.
BB said this pouting showing that she is jealous of Stelle.
With this situation resolved the group enters their respective rooms and Ritsuka stays in the middle of his bed while Stelle stays on the right of the bed and BB on the left.
It doesn't take long for the three of them to sleep together, but something ends up happening between Ritsuka and Stelle.
*************
Stelle's perspective...
*************
I feel like I'm falling into a darkness in an endless abyss.
I can't see anything, I can't hear anything, much less feel anything in my body.
All I know is that I'm in a place covered in a dark void.
Until suddenly I no longer feel like I'm falling. I hear light footsteps next to me until I feel a presence and hear a voice that I recognize.
Alter: It seems that your curiosity brought you back here. Hmpf. I thought that you would no longer dare to enter the darkness and dirt of the mind, but it seems that I underestimated you.
Stelle: Is that you Alter?
For some reason I can hear his voice and I can speak even in this darkness.
Alter: So you still remember me? It seems that your Stellaron has more benefits than I thought. Welcome to the abyss of the human mind where regrets, anger and despair meet.
Alter says this and I hear the sound of a lighter being lit and for a moment I can see a bit of his face.
(Photo)
Alter: You better get out of this place while you still have time.
He says this in a serious tone, not leaving room for argument, but for some reason I feel like it's not a good idea to leave him alone in this place.
Stelle: Sorry, Alter, but you're going to have to put up with me a little longer. After all, I promised I'd see you again.
I say this looking in the direction where I think Alter is.
Alter:Tch! What a stubborn woman...
When Alter said this I let out a slight smile. I know this place can be dangerous, but I have a feeling of certainty that Alter will protect me.
**********
Meanwhile....
*********
On an unknown planet, a place where an eternal scarlet storm is occurring.
It is a place where weak creatures do not survive, only animals that have adapted to the place they managed to live.
On a peak of a giant mountain at the mouth of the storm is a garden with red flowers and many bodies scattered around the place.
(Photo)
In this place a portal opens and two individuals come out of the portal. The first is an old man wearing a noble and important dress, while the second is a small girl with a red kimono and a fox mask.
(Photo)
These people are Zelretch and Sparkle. Zelretch is the user of the second magic that allows him to travel through parallel worlds among other incredible things.
Sparkle is a notorious member of the Masked Fools and the two are together on this unique occasion to meet someone.
Sparkle: Are you sure we're in the right place, old man?
Zelretch: Yes. A really lovely place, isn't it. Hehe.
Zelretch said this laughing at the sarcasm he said and Sparkle giggled.
Sparkle: Hehe. Sparkle thinks this place is amazing! There are bodies! Lightning and storms! Besides a perfect garden as decoration, I loved it!
Sparkle said this laughing and humming until Zelretch took a look around.
Zelretch: Hmm.... It seems like she's not close...
Zelretch said this and he points his cane to the sky and a pillar of light comes out of the cane and after a few seconds the small pillar of light disappears.
Zelretch: There you go. Now the lady of the house should be arriving.
Sparkle: Hehehehe! I can't wait to see Vita One-chan's close friend in person!
Zelretch: Vita? Ah, so my accomplice has been busy. It was to be expected.
Zelretch said this with a big smile on his face and then the two feel a huge overwhelming presence.
Sparkle: She's coming! She's coming! She's coming!
Instead of being intimidated, Sparkle is very excited and anxious for the arrival of the individual who is approaching.
A loud roar of a beast echoes throughout the entire mountain and a huge silhouette is visible in the light of the thunder.
*BOOM*
The beast lands in the garden in front of Zelretch and Sparkle and the beast reveals itself to be a giant, frightening dragon that is currently glaring at the two invaders.
(Photo)
Sparkle is smiling with joy while she is shocked and Zelretch continues to smile showing no sign of fear in front of the dragon.
Zelretch: It's good to see you're recovering from your wounds, my accomplice. How is your new body? Is it comfortable?
Zelretch said this in a natural tone, treating the dragon as if you were an ordinary person. The dragon responded in a loud and bestial tone of voice.
