[Chapter 8] Obtaining Valuable Intel

(A/N: 10K words! It looks so small compared to some other novels and fics here, but I am happy.)

[POV: Raynare]

'Where am I?' That was my first thought upon opening my eyes. Looking around, all I could see was grass.

'Is this the afterlife?' That question was answered quickly when an orange orb appeared in front of me.

"No, it isn't. This is Masters's dimension." It said. 'Master? does he mean that blonde woman that knocked me out?' I was once again deep in thought.

"Can you tell me who your Master is?" I decided to ask him since thinking wouldn't get me anywhere. The orange orb stopped moving before answering my question.

"He will be here shortly." It said. 'He? so it isn't that blonde woman. Her husband perhaps?' I thought.

[Timeskip: 10 minutes later]

[POV: Alex]

I stood in front of the black-haired woman, I saw her purple eyes looking at me with confusion and surprise.

"2 Servants?! What are you, a monster?!" She asked in a bewildered tone.

"A snake," I said honestly before grabbing her wrist and using [Analyze]. 'As expected. She is Raynare. Shouldn't she be dead though?' I quickly looked through her memories.

'She cooperated with Rias?!' After a while, I found multiple pieces of important information. She was Assassins(Dark) Master, the man in black and red clothing that I and Artoria killed. The giant man was Berserker, Asia's Servant, I found out about the other Servants of the [Dark Side] as well. They were:

[Ruler]: Jeanne D'Arc Alter. (Fallen Angel) (A/N: I made her a fallen angel because why not. By the way, Jeanne is an angel.)

[Lancer]: Karna

[Master of Lancer]: Kokabiel. (Fallen Angel)

[Saber]: Artoria Pendragon Alter (Dead)

[Master of Saber]: Rias. (Devil)

[Caster]: Medea

[Master of Caster]: Kalawarner (Fallen Angel)

[Archer]: Ishtar

[Master of Archer]: Issei. (Devil)

[Berserker]: Hercules (Dead)

[Master of Berserker]: Asia. (Devil)

[Assassin]: EMIYA (Assassin) (Dead)

[Master of Assassin]: Raynare. (Fallen Angel)

[Rider]: Astolfo

[Master of Rider]: Kiba. (Devil)

I'm going to be honest, this was much better than I expected it to be. I looked through her memories once again and found that she made a deal with Rias that made her kill Issei. Fast forward to when Issei was supposed to kill Raynare, Rias, because of their partnership, stopped Issei from killing her.

"What are you doing?!" She asked me with anger before I looked at her in the eyes and replied.

"Obtaining intel," I said before a sword appeared next to me. Inside the [Hub], I didn't need to open a crack in space to fire my sword.

"W-W-W-Wai-" She couldn't even finish talking before the sword fired towards her head at supersonic speed. Cutting through the air, the average-looking sword went straight through her forehead.

She was dead.

I looked towards Nero and Eresh before speaking. "I know I just killed a woman and all, but, want to go on a date next Saturday?" I asked both of them. (A/N: I can't wait for the girls to make moves first. It's so annoying to write and read about it.)

"Sure(x2)" Both of them said. They looked towards each other in surprise before I spoke up.

"Great, I'll be looking forward to it," I said with a smile, teleporting out of the [Hub] shortly after.

[POV: 3rd Person]

After Alex teleported out, Eresh and Nero started to argue with each other before coming to an agreement. Nodding to each other, they exited the [Hub].

[Timeskip: Next day at school]

'This is so boring' I thought while listening to the teacher. 'I should try to design some techniques.' I signaled to Nero and Eresh that were in the class(in spirit form) that I was going to enter mental acceleration for 40 minutes. And with that, I entered mental acceleration.

[Mental acceleration: 1 Day = 1 Minute]

I found that everything looked much slower than it was before, almost as if time had stopped. Mentally smiling, I used another skill.

'[Inner World]' I thought. The next second, instead of the classroom, I saw a lake that had mountains surrounding it. This was the place I was going to train in.

With a smile on my face, I started to get ready.

[POV: Third Person]

[Timeskip: 40 days later]

A giant white scaled serpent with golden eyes could be seen in the air. It had its enormous mouth that had white energy leaking out of it wide open. Inside of its mouth, a spinning white lance that was shrouded with golden lightning could be seen.

It aimed its mouth towards a mountain before it spoke.

"Zun Laas Qo Su'um!" The lance shooted out of its mouth and traveled at extreme speed towards the top of a mountain.

Cutting through the air, it arrived at the mountain top and exploded, covering it with storm clouds that had golden lightning crawling through it.

*BANG* Then, the worst storm in the history of storms appeared, hundreds of lightning descending onto the mountain top per second. This went on for one more minute before disappearing as if it didn't exist in the first place. However, the shattered mountain top proved otherwise.

Then, the white serpent started to laugh -if it could be called one- madly for a full minute. Afterward, the enormous serpent was shrouded by light. 5 seconds later, a silver-haired boy with golden eyes and a handsome face could be seen hovering in the air.

"That was perfect!" He said with joy. "Alduin would be proud of such a shout." He continued.

[POV: Alex]

It took a while for me to calm down. This technique wasn't even done yet, I was planning on fusing It with the technique I used on Hercules. Imagine this technique but with lightning that destabilized space and time! Now that would be overpowered.

After smiling like an idiot for another minute, I exited my [Inner World].

________________________________________________

[Timeskip: 4 days later, Saturday]

After making another technique, my days passed rather peacefully. Wake up, go to school, talk with Nero and Eresh, maybe Artoria as well. this was repeated for 4 days before the promised day arrived.

Oh, I had also started the basics of my cult. A few members already started to join in, however, it was still quite small.

Anyway, right now, I was thinking of clothes to wear. Nero and Eresh were waiting just outside my house.

"That will look good, I think." I talked out loud before creating a white shirt and blue jeans. Quickly putting them on, I exited my room.

"Where are you going?" My dad asked, I decided to answer honestly.

"A date," I replied and exited the house before he could ask any more questions. After exiting my house, I saw Nero and Eresh in casual clothes. 'Cute.' I thought before walking up to them.

[Authors Corner]

I will try to find pictures of Eresh and Nero in casual clothing later.

In his cult, he is something like a God of Heaven. His reveal to the world is going to be so epic.

"Zun Laas Qo Su'um!" means: "Weapon Lightning Life Breath" It's the Skyrim Dragon Language. In proper English, it would be something like "Breath of Heavenly Weapons," I think. I will not use the English version since this isn't a Chinese novel.
