At the center of Fuyuki city, the out of order fountain that stopped because of the blood started working again. The area looked like it was washed by a flood as everything was thrown around. It'll probably take a lot of time to be fixed.
Leo was standing there while looking at the holographic screen in front of him with a blank face. He felt that this way of asking was playing on his nerves before he said "No, I don't know. Why would I know? How did you assume that I'll know something about your world's wills stuff? Or do you think it's cool to start your phrases in this way?"
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will):.... Yes]
"....." Taking a deep breath, Leo didn't want to ask what that 'Yes' was about before receiving another message.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): You need to understand that this is the usual way for us, the higher beings, to express ourselves]
"I feel this is just some sort of flexing of your knowledge" Leo said with a tired tone because he can imagine the answer. It'll be another yes.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Yes]
"....." Exactly on the point! Leo didn't know if he should sigh or celebrate his prediction skills. He has a feeling that Shiki has been corrupted by her fusion with the world's will.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Anyway, let's go back to the subject. Do you know something called the 'Hook'?]
{She did it again...} Leo closed his eyes for a moment before he sighed and said " No"
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will):*Root nodding. Gif*]
Root sent a GIF of her nodding like a teacher, which made Leo take another deep breath while stabbing the screen with Rhongomyniad… Again.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Ahem… In this multiverse, we, the worlds, are like planets in space. Our existence is probably, if not surely, the most secure and safe environment to exist in the multiverse]
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): What out of our domain, is called the multiversal void. A place with conditions harsher than you'll ever imagine. Except for us, probably only the Outer Gods or the multiverse spaces can exist, even if sometimes they fall to one of the multiple disasters in the Multiversal void]
"Disasters?" Leo felt like he's listening to a history and geographic lesson about the multiverse.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Some very unfortunate events, they aren't important now]
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): In this multiversal void, we 'float' across the endless unknown, probably everyone here does the same thing. Outer Gods or the Multiverse space, however, there's a difference]
Leo raised his eyebrow because he saw something repeating, which was the 'probably' word. This can mean that even Root doesn't know all or even a lot about the Multiversal void.
However, he also noticed that Root is leaving these hints on purpose because even if he was an angel, he'll fall short against a world will, who is clearly in a higher realm than him.
{It seems like even the world's wills lack knowledge in this aspect, but I guess anything can happen in the multiverse} Leo nodded before he looked at another message.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): If we count ourselves, as planets, and the Outer Gods as aliens creatures, then the multiverse spaces are like big spaceships]
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): These spaceships gather a lot of passengers across the multiverse. And of course, you can't just ride the ship for free, they have to work to stay on board. Honestly, there's a lot about this subject, so let move towards the way they allow their passengers to 'land' on the worlds]
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): In simple terms, there's probably two ways that have been currently seen. Pinpointing a location with a lot of 'marks' or using the 'Hook' to attach the spaceship to a world]
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): What important now is the second way. This happens when there's enough 'marks' or the multiverse space is ready to spend a big amount of energy to launch the 'Hook' and attach itself to a world]
"So… Like a pirate ship using grappling hooks?" Leo felt the concept is very similar to pirate ships.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will):... No. They are like spaceships using higher technologies to make a passage between itself and the world to drain it powers]
"Like pirates running across the grappling hooks when the other ship is close enough?" Leo squinted his eyes while looking at Root's description of the 'Hook'.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): No, it's a spaceship!]
"You, the worlds, are some sort of islands, the multiverse spaces are pirates and their ships, and the Outer Gods are some sort of a Kraken" Leo didn't care as he said those words that made Root, who was in the Akashic, twitch her eyebrow.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Why are you persistent about this pirates theme!!??]
"Why are you persistent about the sci-fi theme?!" Leo replayed with the same type of question, which made Root's eyebrow twitch even further.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): The sci-fi theme is clearly better to describe this!!]
"Deal with it, even if I like mecha too, this is clearly Pirate of Caribbean Multiverse Edition" Leo clapped his hands like he achieved something.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): No, it's not! And I didn't know you like mecha]
Strangely, Root refused to back down like it's a very important thing for her. But she seemed more interested in the second question.
"It isn't bad, but you really like this theme, huh? Is this why the Greek gods became mecha Gods?" Leo feels like he's discovering a lot about this world with each day passing by.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will):*Cough* As I was saying, by looking through this player's memories, I was able to locate the 'Hook'. You better keep that shard of his soul because it can guide one time to the 'Hook']
When the Forsaken Eden started, Lizard was having flashbacks about the nightmare space. Those were Leo's hidden moves to let Root get what she wants from him.
"You avoided the question…." Leo looked at the chat with blank eyes.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): The 'Hook' will lose it energy after some time if the players can't bring a lot of it, but after what they did, it'll keep working for a while]
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): the other way to stop it, is to make it take action against the world and expose itself completely, which allows me to 'Cut' it to pieces]
Leo didn't know why, but he really got a shiver while reading that 'Cut' word, like this world's will is really angry.
"So, I guess you can handle it just fine. I already had enough from this mission" Leo shrugged his shoulders as it seems like Root can take care of this because it's an optional objective.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Of course, I can. But you'll have to kill the next waves of players coming to this world until it's done]
Leo, who was stretching his arms, stopped in his place before he said " I've to… What?!"
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): The passage is still open until the 'Hook' is gone, so you'll have to continue this until the 'Hook' run out of energy, which will probably take few years if it kept sending players]
"....." Leo didn't dare to ask about how many years because these world's wills sense of time are different from him. That 'few' could mean 10,000 years or even more.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Or you can make it react, so I can destroy it. I believe you'll choose this one]
"Of course, I will choose that one, but how do you want me to attack it?" Leo shook his head to clear his thoughts as he asked.
"Even if I chose to throw everything away and become 'The platinum', I won't be able to hurt something like that, at best, I'll just scratch it" Even if he proposed that, Leo's tone clearly suggests that he doesn't want to go full into that form.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): I know, even with that power, you were able to destroy that artificial god because it came to this world, but that 'Hook' is attached to the multiverse space]
{Artificial god?... Interesting} Leo was interested in this topic, but he chose to wait because Root sent another message.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): For this to work, I need you as Beast VI and the morning star of humanity.]
When Root said those words, Leo took a step away from the screen before he said " Root, think about this…"
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Think about what? It's time for the morning star to shine on the fall of humanity and blind this world with its glow]
{The world's will is becoming chunni and edgy, we are doomed!!} Leo was giving up all hope he had for this world, if he had one in the first place.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Alaya had made a deal with someone and a very nice guy, who is willing to help, has come to this city. So, I need you to grab that 1st Noble Phantasm and call upon the star that represents the fall from the grace]
"No…" Leo took more steps away from the screen. He doesn't like this, doesn't like it at all!!.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Because our 'guest' needs to experience Type-Moon's special. With your Noble Phantasm, we'll diagnose and inject him with…]
"No, no, no…." Leo covered his face with his right hand because he can already guess the next word.
[ROOT(Developer/Type-Moon world will): Humanity!]
"NOOOO!!!" The helpless cries of an angel echoed in Fuyuki city as it awakened some unconscious people.
Meanwhile, in the forest of mount Endou. Alex was walking towards the Ryuudou temple with Enkidu.
He already lost a lot of chances and understood that this mission is a completely lost cause, especially when he saw the blood chaos a few minutes ago.
Lizard, as a solo player, especially a strong one, was beyond him in power. However, that guy lost in a few minutes after he tried to do something, which slammed Alex's hopes to the ground. He is more like a team player and now, he lost that advantage completely.
Holding a scroll in his hand, that was an item to leave the mission. Although it gives a small penalty, it's better than losing his life.
Now, he's just trying to get more points to lower the penalty by going to the Ryuudou temple, which is a very important plot point.
"Master!" Suddenly, Enkidu's voice awoke Alex, who was lost in thoughts.
Enkidu didn't explain as he jumped in front of him while golden mana was glowing on his hands.
"No need to get aggressive, young man" A voice echoed in the surrounding as Alex was able to feel it whispering in his ears.
This made him enter combat mode immediately before looking around, however, he didn't see anything.
Enkidu kept looking to the front before someone appeared suddenly. Alex was taken back by that before he saw the person. And when he did, his eyes almost popped out from his skull.
The arriver was an old man with a small beard. He was wearing an old black magician robe, which seemed more unique than the other magi.
He was holding a stick in his hand as he supported himself with it like any other old man, but this one had red glowing eyes that made everyone forget about his age.
"Would you mind if I invite you to have a talk?" the wizard marshall, Zelretch, smiled while looking at Alex behind Enkidu.
The 2nd True magic user and one of the twenty-seven Dead Apostle Ancestors appeared in front of Alex, which made him want to curse everything at this moment.
