Chapter 14: Making Contracts
So it all comes down to this huh.
It's the night of January 10 of the year 2004, and Sakura is currently preparing the summoning circle for the ritual. It's a Saturday so it's quite convenient, as for why Sakura is summoning the Servant not me is because she was "chosen" as a Master by the "Grail".
As for her catalyst for summoning, I gave her a fragment of Aegis I got while wasting my points in Gacha years ago.
The main reason I am even participating in this farce is because of a mission I got, and also because I couldn't find the entrance to the cavern where Greater Grail is present. I want to study it so that I can understand the summoning principles and get more information about Heaven's Feel.
[Event Mission-
You know about the corruption of the Holy Grail System in this town. So to maintain safety of the town and by extension the world. You feel its better to destroy it.
Main Objective: Destroy corrupted Greater Grail
Main Rewards: Wish Granting Token]
I have a few theories about why I can't find the cavern where the Grail is. But that's neither here nor there. I will get a chance to visit it through Illyasviel by negotiating with her. I am sure everything will go fine. Anyway she is not here yet, plus I have a strong feeling that cavern will be accessible once all seven Servants are summoned.
Oh it looks like her ritual is about to be finished.
As soon as her incantations finish, Ether materializes in the air forming the vessel and then summoning the spirit inside it. The process was quite quick but I now have a good idea how to summon Heroic Spirits. I just need to research how to make a connection with the Throne of Heroes now.
Anyway, as expected Sakura summoned Medusa as her Servant with that catalyst. Thankfully it's not someone like Perseus, because then I would be having entirely different emotions.
"Master."
She utters as if staring at Sakura through her blindfold.
"You are Medusa, correct?"
Medusa seems to be a bit surprised that Sakura figured out her identity but doesn't show much of a reaction other than a nod and bows. Of course I had already told Sakura about the most likely Servant she will get from this.
"Rider-class Servant Medusa greets you, my Master."
"There's no need for greetings Rider, I only need you to do two things. You can't betray neither me nor Nii-san and I want you to protect our family. In exchange, Nii-san will incarnate you into current age. Do you agree to this, Rider?"
"As you wish Master. Though, may I ask you something, Master?"
"Very well."
"Master, why do you have divinity? As far as I know, there should be no gods or demigods in the current age."
"Oh this divinity is something Nii-san granted me after obtaining it from another dimension. Is that all?"
"Yes."
After saying that, Rider dematerializes. She didn't even speak to me, damn why was I ignored?
"Nii-san, I am going to sleep. Would you like to come with me?"
"No I have another matter to deal with. So I would join you in a short while."
I say that because I noticed someone interesting just now with my surveillance network. I wonder if this is fate or coincidence.
Sakura pouts at my response. And goes towards our bedroom. We haven't yet crossed the line but that's just a matter of time, I suppose.
I quickly teleport to the deserted street at night where I see an injured dark blue robed woman. Just as I teleport in front of her I can see surprise in her veiled eyes and then some resignation.
"Do.... with me....as you will."
She says to me with difficulty and some gasps and then collapses. I stop her from falling but I can sense despair radiating from her.
"I.....can't believe..... that.... I will be... a plaything ...for a god .....in this life.... as well."
She mutters in between gasps. Hey, isn't she just misunderstanding me? I just came here to get a free Servant since it doesn't look I will be a Master, but the situation seems to be going in a weird direction.
I heal her and also inject enough magical energy into her so that she is away from the precipice of disappearing. This doesn't seem to comfort the woman, one bit.
"This isn't a good place to talk."
I say to the woman and grab her waist to teleport her with me to my workshop, there isn't any resistance from her as if she has resigned herself to another tragic fate to befall because of my divine self.
I make her sit down on one of the chairs facing me and then start to talk with her.
"Would you like to make a contract with me? Also I am not really a legitimate God, I just absorbed divinity after killing one."
"What....?"
She makes a surprise pikachu face, and it's quite funny.
"You killed a God?"
"Yes, it was a Roman God not a Greek one. Anyway would you like to become my Servant, Princess of Colchis?"
"You know who I am? Oh of course you know."
"Yes, now answer my question Medea?"
"Do I really have a choice?"
"Not really, but it's better than dying. Also I want you to become my Servant not for your firepower but rather to gain a capable and experience research partner. So what do you say?"
"Alright. I will form a contract with you."
"That's the spirit. Welcome to the family!"
I form a magical contract with her just like that. I can see a trident pattern on my right arm, those are the Command Spells.
"By the way Master, you didn't introduce yourself. You know about me, so I am curious as to who you are."
"Oh how forgetful of me, my name is Matou Shinji and I am the Third Magician of this era."
Now that sounds badass if I do say so myself. But my real powers far surpass this introduction of mine, just look at my status.

Man that battle with Crimson Moon in Summer Vacation of 2002 was something else. I was bedridden for a day due to aftereffects of absorbing Crimson Moon. From then onwards, I am just saving Devouring Heaven for a rainy day after all I don't need more power at the moment.
"Oh? How did you accomplish that at such a young age Shinji-sama?"
"You can say that I was lucky."
She just raises her eyebrow at this but what else can I say? I certainly didn't reach the Root by my own capabilities after all.
CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
KenTheSlayer
KenTheSlayer This was a chapter written in a hurry with a sleepy mind so forgive me if you didn't like it. Honestly, I am feeling a bit sick right now. Nothing major, just a bit of a fever. But yeah it affects the writing as you can see. This arc would not really be full of battles if that was what you were hoping for. Anyway, I am open to suggestions in the comments.
