Bab 8: Chapter 8 Vale

'So this is the city of Vale, it can't really compare to the cities of my past life but its much better than the primitive city of the world I just left'.

After saving the train's crew, they allowed her to hitch a ride to the city. Once they arrived at Vale's train terminal Mordred was once more thanked and given a few thousand lien this world's currency. The white fang she captured was taken in by the city's police for interrogation, she was also asked some questions about what happened before she was let go. 

Now she walked amongst the busy city streets.

'Let's see, so I need to get a scroll which is basically an iphone, find an inn, then do some research about this world, I hope I don't need proper documentation'.

Mordred had already stored away her equipment when no one was looking so that she didn't draw attention, but she did consider that it might be fine since hunters walk around with their weapons everywhere they go.

After looking around and purchasing a scroll she found a cheap inn to stay at. She opened the door to her room and what greeted her was a warm and cozy home. She threw herself onto the soft bed.

"Ahh this bed is amazing!"

As she snuggled into the pillows a thought quickly appeared in her head.

"The bathroom!"

She jumped off the head and ran straight to the bathroom. She looked inside and saw a typical bathroom that you would see at any hotel but for Mordred who spent years in a ruined world where basic plumbing and sewage systems were almost nonexistent, this scene was like a holy grail.

She went to the bath's faucet and turned the handle. Water came rushing out and she slowly reached her hand out and touched the water.

"!!!"

"It's hot water! It's really hot water!"

Memories of having to shower in ice cold water for a limited amount of time or having to wipe herself down with a cloth filled her head.

Thinking of these memories she wasted no time and filled the bath then stripped naked throwing her clothes to the side. She laid down in the bath and felt the warm embrace of the water all over her skin. She closed her eyes, relishing the feeling before opening her eyes and looked at the water she was in.

The bath water was no longer clean but now murky.

"...maybe I should shower first before bathing…"

Embarrassed by how dirty her body was she drained the water and took a shower.

"Ahh that felt amazing!"

She walked out wearing a bathrobe, her long blonde hair loose. She sat down at the edge of the bed. She grabbed her scroll and searched for information about the city. Deciding to familiarize herself with the city's layout and current state to see if its just like her memories and since she plans to stay here for a long time.

'Vale is quite large I guess that should be expected of the capital city of the kingdom that is supposed to hold about a fourth of the human population. The creators went hard on the old European style since there are practically no skyscrapers within the city unlike the city of Mantle in Atlas'. 

'The entertainment industry sucks, where the hell is all the anime!?'

'Beacon Academy, the school that trains huntsmen, the place where the main story starts. I am quite tempted to go there but I won't since it will be nothing but trouble. I don't have any proper documentation, I would have to take a bunch of tests, and I doubt I could adjust back into a school life considering the way I lived the past few years'. 

'Vale has rampant gang violence that the city council covers up so that the population doesn't panic and cause a horde of grimm to attack'.

'Then the kingdom's military. Honestly it's terrible, basically just a militia consisting of hunters and civilians that are called up to serve when needed, no armored vehicles just normal transports and the air force consists of a few bulkheads that are not armed and are just used as troop transport'.

'No wonder the kingdom gets its ass kicked'.

~Growl~

"Guess it's dinner time".

Mordred opened her inventory to grab her stored food but stopped.

"I should eat out, I have a shit ton of money and quite frankly I deserve to spoil myself".

She opened her scroll once again and searched for any nearby restaurants. One caught her eye, an all you can eat restaurant that's about a five minute walk from her inn. She began to drool at the images of the food.

She got out of her bathrobe and changed into her normal attire, black shirt and black pants with boots.

"I should probably shop for clothes when I get the chance".

With those last words she left her room in a hurry towards the restaurant.

"What the hell is up with my appetite!?"

She sat alone at a table covered with bowls and plates, licked clean of the food that was originally on them. Once she started eating she couldn't stop.

'My appetite wasn't this big in my past life and it definitely wasn't when I was in the previous world, if it was I would have starved to death!'

Customers began staring at her wondering where all that food went. Even the chefs were surprised but we're also proud that someone liked their food this much. 

In the end she had to force herself to stop eating, but she still didn't feel full.

'My appetite is going to drive me bankrupt if I'm not careful'.

She reluctantly left the restaurant and walked back to her inn. She arrived back at her room, she took off her boots and snuggled into the bed once more.

"Ahh this bed is heaven…"

I also have five years to prepare, I believe in five years I will be strong enough to take on Cinder and the Wyvern. Actually I could probably kill Cinder now if I get the drop on her but I don't know where she is".

"Though I don't want to do all the heavy lifting, the scale of the attack was big. Hordes of grimm, an army of white fang that somehow got their hands on Atlas mechs, as well as the Atlas fleet and robot army getting hijacked, turning them against the defenders".

"I'll need to gather capable allies and probably make an army to deal with everything".

Mordred stood up on her bed and declared.

"I decided, I shall make a mercenary army so powerful that even Atlas will feel scared to confront me and Ironwood will become even more paranoid than he already is, HAHAHA, I accept!".

Mordred pressed the accept button. The mission's clock began ticking down.

Bab 9: Chapter 9 Ideas for the Future

Mordred was sitting at her desk, browsing the world's version of the internet. She had been doing research on the world, searching for everything that was unique to this world. She set down her scroll and pulled out a notebook from her inventory, she opened to a blank page and began writing.

'It's been about a month since I arrived in Vale, this place is quite nice, the food is good and the people aren't assholes. This place is really great, you just have to ignore the gang violence that happens in the poorer parts of the city that sometimes find their way here'.

'Other than the situation of the city I have made very interesting discoveries. Dust. Dust is one of the most important minerals mined in all of Remnant. The original show of RWBY never went too deep in the applications of Dust used in the world at least from what I remember but after some searching I have found that the residents of this world rely on Dust way too much'.

'Dust is the primary fuel source of Remnant, it's used to power cities, cars, electronics and used in ammunition. Honestly this reliance is so huge that if Remnant ran out of Dust they would be in a worse situation than if the United States all of a sudden ran out of oil'.

'While Dust is the primary fuel source, Remnant does have other sources that aren't used greatly such as coal, oil, wind and water. I have found no cases of solar or nuclear power being used or even mentioned'.

'Another thing I found is that gunpowder doesn't exist. I mean why would it when people use Dust as a propellant. The thing is that as a propellant in ammunition Dust is inferior to gunpowder. I have tested it. I almost lost my hand because a Dust bullet I made for my pistol went off prematurely but I'm fine, my pistol, not so much'.

'Anyway I went to a weapons craftsman that could be trusted after asking around town and requested for him to make normal Dust bullets for my AK, I had to let him inspect my gun first. It was a bit expensive and the results weren't good. Dust bullets have less power and fly slower than normal gunpowder bullets. They are still good at killing but suck against armored targets. If you want Dust bullets to be stronger than use more Dust or use an artificial variant of Dust that is made by combining different types of Dust together but that option is even more expensive'.

'I could make a business selling gunpowder bullets. I'm sure it would do good since they are cheaper than Dust as well as the fact that in recent times the price of Dust has been on the rise'.

'I would need to do more research on business since I've never managed or started a business before, I should also sell firearms as well. But to do all this I need capital. I need more money, I planned to take jobs as a huntsman but that could be a problem since I have no certification from any academy and I have no Aura, so people would be less likely to hire me'.

'I have tried to unlock my Aura and followed information on the internet to help me but it didn't work. I could try and use the method that was used by Pyrrha to unlock Jaune's Aura but I would need to find someone to do that for me. Couldn't I hire someone to do that? I'll have to explore that idea another time'.

'Well to get more capital I have decided to steal it. How? Vale has lots of gangs that need to be removed and I need money. I'm sure those gangs have plenty of money in their pockets from all their illegal activities. The perfect source of money'.

Mordred finished writing her last thoughts and closed her journal. She stretched her body while sitting in her chair.

"Man, that was a lot of writing, my hand hurts".

She got up from her chair, grabbing her scroll. She pulled up a recent news article.

"My first target, a local gang in the area, the Concrete Kings. I don't know why they use Kings in their name when they are a small gang that gets bullied by larger gangs".

She walked out of her room and wandered the streets, Getting closer to the main base of the Concrete Kings that she managed to find rather easily since there was an online forum that revealed the location of the base. Why haven't the police made any moves? Who knows, probably corruption? 

She neared the base, an old factory building that once produced fabrics. Mordred got into an alley, after ensuring no one was nearby or that there were any cameras she pulled out her equipment. She was dressed in an all black shirt and pants with modern tactical gear equipped that was also black. To somewhat hide her identity she used a black cloak she found at a garage sale. All black, very edgy.

She readied her weapon and did one last check of her gear.

"Time to deliver justice"

She activated mana burst and jumped onto the roof of a three story building that overlooked the factory. During her travels when she first arrived in the world she trained in using mana burst. She can control it quite well but not to the point of being as good as the original Mordred.

She studied the outside of the factory, noting every guard and entrance she spotted. The gang base had a considerable lack of guards and defenses making them an easy target.

"Well stealth has never been my forte so might as well go guns blazing!"

Two guards stood at the front entrance of the factory. Bored out of their minds.

"Hey".

"Yeah?"

"Do you ever wonder why we're here?"

"It's one of life's great mysteries isn't it? Why are we here? Are we the–".

~THUD~

"WHAT THE-!"

The two guards turned to see a figure clad in all black land directly in front of them. They didn't have anytime to react as the figure smashed their heads together, knocking them out.

"Two down!"

The figure said in a happy tone. They pushed open the door and entered the factory. A slaughter would soon begin.
