Chapter 26: First Encounter
Ryo [so, want to do something?]
Artoria [What do you have in mind, Ryouto]
Ryo [would you like to train? or lets drink some more coffee?]
Artoria [I'd rather train all day, than drink more of your coffee]
Ryo [You know that's true, even I don't want to drink it anymore]
Ryo and Artoria went to the back of Rin's house to have a duel
Ryo [So how should we do this?]
Artoria [Let's use wooden swords, and don't want to injure you]
Ryo simply smiled and summoned two wooden swords and gave one to Artoria
They both readied up and then launched at each other, Ryo was the first to strike, he attacked Artoria's sword intentionally to pressure her
Artoria, was very shocked at how powerful Ryo was as she didn't expect someone that had the qualities of a Caster to be as powerful as this she tried to hold out but she was pushed farther and further down
Ryo [I thought you might "injure" me?]
After Ryo said that mockingly, Artoria got a bit pissed so she pushed harder, and pushed Ryo away from her, she then went on the attack and started targeting all his weak points, but like he could see the future he either dodged or blocked every attack, After going at it for more than minutes, Ryo tried something
Artoria was trying to get Ryo, and she found an opening she went for it, however her instinct immediately stopped her as she backed away, as soon as she did a lightning bolt attacked from behind the spot she was standing
Ryo [Your instinct is very sharp, it's good to remember that your opponent also uses magic, we really did have the same master, However, I had another master as well]
As soon as Ryo said that the ground under Artoria erupted with spears but instead of attacking her they formed a cage around her and one of them disarmed her
Artoria [I couldn't sense that!]
Ryo [That was the point, even an A ranked Instinct Skill can't sense something as absurd as spears growing from shadows, however it's a onetime only trick, so next time it won't work ]
Artoria broke the spears and grabbed her wooden sword again and said
Artoria [Again?]
Ryo [Sure]
...
Rin spent her day in school normally like she does, and when she went back to her house things were rather natural, that was until she reached her manor's back yard, in it she saw Artoria with a towel around her neck laughing with Ryo when they were talking, while of course her Yard was decimated
Ryo [Overworking Merlin is the Job that I gave to Qiness, She keeps coming up with stuff for him to do, seeing him suffer lightens up my day, I wish you could see it, Ahahaha]
Artoria [AHAHAH I would love to see that mischievous demon get overworked, he always was too lazy in my own kingdom]
Rin [Hey! What have you done to my Backyard?]
Ryo [Oh! Hey Rin welcome back, me and Artoria were training for a bit, and well this happened, Don't worry I'll fix it]
Rin [Fix it? How?]
Ryo got up and summoned a green earth Grimoire and fixed the holes the destruction he did with Artoria
Ryo [Here see, Fixed]
Rin [How! What was that magic?]
Ryo [Something from my World]
Artoria [Rin, what should we do today? the war will start officially]
Rin [Yeah we should visit the church, although he lost his servant, Ryouto should still inform them about the existence of more than seven servants]
Ryo [I don't mind, let's get to it then]
…
Rin led both Artoria and Ryouto to the Fuyuki Church, while they were walking there Ryo was telling them about his kingdom and his first days of ruling, it was very easy for Ryo to talk to them, maybe because he doesn't have to act like a king around them, it felt the same with his lovers and friends
Rin [We are here]
Artoria looked at the church and said
Artoria [I will stay here, you two go on]
Ryo [I suppose, we will go ahead then]
Ryo and Rin went into the church, inside they saw a Man wearing a black priest cloth, Ryo who scanned the man thought to himself "Hmm, he smells like the priest I killed few months ago"
Kirei [Ah, Welcome Rin, so it would seem that you have summoned a Servant ?]
Rin [Yes I did, this guy here did the same, a brought him here to officially declare him as a master]
Kirei [Well welcome mister?]
Ryo [Ryouto, Ryouto Gilgamesh Arkhan]
Kirei [Is that so, then what do you wish for Mister Arkhan?]
"I see, so even with the same appearance and name and he doesn't recognize me, if my memories aren't playing tricks on me, he was my old self's "master", so it would seem that in this timeline he wasn't?"
Ryo [I have no wish Priest, My servant is already gone, I came here to tell you that there are more servants than the usual, I only did it since Rin told me that you were her guardian, Just so you know priest, I don't like you, and it toke seconds to figure that out, if I remain here for more, I might kill you so,
Adios
Oh and by the way tell your servant that he sucks at acting like an Assassin]
Ryo turned around not minding Kirei what so ever and left
Rin [Ryouto ! *sigh* well, you're a master as well Kirei, I suppose we are enemies, see you later]
Kirei [What have you done Rin! That man is too dangerous, stay away from him]
Rin [You are the last person that I'll listen too, I only met him yesterday and his more honest than you, Enemy Master Kirei Kotomine]
Kirei [So, that's how it will be?]
Rin [That's how it will be]
Rin then flexed her hair and left following Ryo, she found him still waiting for her
Rin [Hey, Sorry, I didn't think that you wouldn't like him that much]
Ryo [he gives off bad vibes, I hate his type so yeah]
Rin [I didn't know that he was a master, Sorry again]
Ryo [Don't worry about it, I think his the master of Lancer, but not the original one, he isn't supposed to be a master, so he probably made a deal with the servant]
Rin [Yeah, I figured, he was always slimy like that]
Ryo then looked around and said
Ryo [Rin, We have Company !]
Ryo walked to where Artoria was waiting
Ryo [Come Artoria, there is someone waiting for us]
Ryo walked to the forest and said
Ryo [You can come out now, I can see you little mage]
After saying that a small white haired girl with red eyes, she was wearing a collared, purple long-sleeved shirt with a light purple scarf to match, a long white skirt and purple boots
??? [I can see you as well, now then what will you do? are you going to hurt a defenseless little child?]
Ryo [Little Child does not suit you, you're older than me, Fuahahaha as for the defenseless part well, I think that you got that covered don't you?]
??? [I suppose I should introduce myself first, my name is Illyasviel Von Einzbern]
Illya said as she bowed in a noble way
Artoria [Einzbern?]
Ryo looked at Artoria and said
Ryo [You know her?]
Artoria [No, that's a different person]
Illya [Are you going to Run Onii-Chan?]
Ryo [No I don't plan too, however am very interested in why you're so confidant]
Illya [Well then, this is why... GO Get them Berserker !]
A large bronze skinned man emerged from nothingness and screamed
Berserker [Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]
Ryo [Ah, what a poet !]
Berserker attacked Ryo and Artoria, Artoria was trying to attack as well, but Ryo grabbed her shoulders and said
Ryo [Protect Rin, I got this]
Berserker Rushed to Ryo with enormous speed, while Ryo just stood there and watched as he approached him,
Rin who saw this thought that Ryo couldn't react so she said
Rin [Dodge, Ryouto!]
Ryo ignored Rin's words as he watched the Large stone sword about to cut him in half, however it was Berserker himself that dodged, and ran backwards, surprising everyone hundreds of Grimoires were summoned around Berserker and the attacked him with magic, and although Berserker has very strong body, the large numbers of magical attacks he was being hit with, left him with nothing but dodging, as even if he stops for a second a large number of Ice spears, Fire ball, Lightning javelins and many more would rain on him, rushing to his master Berserker encircled himself around her in an attempt to protect her
However nothing hit him, as he looked behind him he saw all the Grimoires stopped
Ryo [I want to fight you Berserker, not your master]
Illya placed her hand on Berserker's face in a gentle way as she whispered to him
Illya [its OK Berserker go and win]
Berserker turned around and looked at Ryo and Roared, this time he wasn't worried about his master, so he focused on Ryo as he attacked
Due to Artoria protecting Rin, Illya decided not to fight her and only observe the battle between Berserker and the new servant
Ryo dodged Berserker's attack and jumped back, he then summoned a level 11 Infusion magic Grimoire and infused his hands with Lightning and Fire magic, and attacked Berserker with his fists, Ryo struck Berserker in the guts, but instead of flying away, Berserker was drawn in as a large Lightning Shock wave hit him, Ryo seizing the moment grabbed Berserker's face with his left hand and launched a grand flame Explosion blowing Berserker's face off as he flied away
Illya [Basaka!!]
Rin who noticed that Berserker was dead said
Rin [Ryouto! did you win?]
Ryo [Nope]
Rin [What?]
Berserker immediately healed as one of his Noble phantasms activated, it was like time was reversing itself as his face healed, however before Berserker could re-balance himself again, Ryo taped the ground with his feet as a large number of dark spears erupted from the ground and Impaled him
Ryo then walked to where Berserker's body is and said
Ryo [That's two lives, Berserker, Or should I say, Heracles]
Ryo, although does not have accesses to the complete knowledge of Gilgamesh, could easily tell that he was Heracles, it was the noble phantasm that gave it away, and his appraisal, he couldn't appraise everyone, but due to Heracles not doing anything to protect his identity, it was easy to appraise him
Showing incredible acrobatic abilities for someone in his size, Berserker got himself up and hit Ryo with his legs, as if he was a Martial Artist, Berserker attacked without his swords, even in his raged state he was still very powerful and experienced warrior, Ryo attempted to dodge but the consistent attacks pushed him back, Berserker then hit him in the guts with his legs sending him flying to the air
In the air Ryo looked at Berserker waiting for him to come down and continue the beating, but Ryo was having none of that, so he changed his form to fight seriously
Ryo {
I am the Sin Demon that Feeds on The Anger of the World
★World Anger, WRATH★
}
Rin who was worried about Ryo, looked at the sky as a bright red light shone, she then noticed that Ryouto's Outfit is completely different, instead of his usual black jacket, he was now wearing a golden armor Leggings
As Ryo was falling down he attack Heracles with his to Magical swords, Heracles responded with defending with his stone sword, however Ryo dropped his own swords and ducked and hit Heracles in the guts again he then re-summoned his sword and they both clashed, due to Heracles' weapon being stronger, Ryo's swords were broken multiple times, but that didn't matter as he could make them again and again, after they kept going at each other Ryo decided to light things up a bit
Multiple magical circles were summoned behind Ryo, Lightning spells formed from them and they attacked Heracles, noticing Heracles dropping his guard to defend against the lightning Bolts, Ryo cut his Right arm, and then he jumped and hit Heracles's face with his knee, Ryo then summoned his golden swords and stuck them in his neck and pushed him away, he stood there watching as Heracles Died for the third time
Feeling that this battle cannot be won now, Illya called Berserker
Illya [Berserker! come back, we can fight them another time!]
Berserker healed again and tried to escape but he was attacked again
Ryo [Ayy, I can't just let you go]
Ryo was about to Impale Berserker again, but his instinct screamed at him, as he called out for Artoria
Ryo [Artoria Protect Rin, NOW!]
Artoria Grabbed Rin and jumped away, as a great Explosion was launched at Ryo and Heracles, however the one that toke the attack was Ryo alone, as Heracles reacted as well and toke Illya and Ran away
After the smoke disappeared and man was holding Ryo in the Air using a Spear, that was impaling him in the heart
??? [He ran! I wanted to fight him, Well that doesn't matter, you will do, I saw you bullying him, so I thought that I should intervene, Oi, Don't die on me Okay]
Ryo Immediately Sensed how Powerful the Man that was holding him in the sky
It was a great hero, some one that had the Aura of a legend, he had green hair that stands up except for a single bang that hangs over the left side of his face, The chest piece of his Golden armor also features a bird, An orange cloth is wrapped loosely around his body
It was
The Swift Hero
Achilles
