NOVEL NEXT Chapter 20: War, war never changes
Luka:….*sigh* I can't even get ecstatic from winning…
Granberia:….it's my loss….that was truly a expectacular attack…
Granberia slowly gets up and lets out a sigh. Even though it wasn't enough to seal her, she isn't In any shape to fight any longer.
Luka: I made…..hehe, I finally made it….but there still more to do…I can't let my guard down now….black alice…..promestein….
Varakaiel: well said luka…..thank you girls.
Tamamo: it was a lot of fun~!
Alma: it was truly fun!
Erubetie:....
Granberia: now what?
Varakiel: for now let's heal you up….i can sense them….they are coming….
Tamamo: already?
Alma:oh so soon? I can't wait to see what did they got to fight us~
Erubetie: ill go back to the spring then….
Varakiel: stay for now, use this if you need help later, and don't doubt even a second to use it, remember than any second can count for the life of a slime girl.
Varakiel then hands a teleport ball to Erubetie.
Erubetie: how do I use it….
Varakiel: just think of the person you need help from and it will get teleported.
Erubetie:….got it…..be careful all of you.....and thank you…for all your help.
Varakiel: ...it was nothing aslong slime girls are happy~.
Luka: yeah!
Varakiel: Tamamo fill aru to full capacity, I am giving them a gift, a gift they will never ever forget, I am using "that".
Tamamo: hehehe, I can't wait to see it.
Varakiel: alright, so.. granberia?
Granberia:…a soldier doesn't go back on their word, I promise to help to get coexistence.
Alma: I do aswell, but I'm still allowed to go in the colleseum right?
Varakiel: as long you don't cause too much trouble to the queen, enjoy yourself as you like.
Alma:..~
Tamamo: I've always wanted to get along humans anyways~.
Varakiel: we get too along right~?
Tamamo: yeah I like you the most~!
Varakiel: (so cute~~~) alright so let's us begin in 3…
Luka: uh? Why a count down?
Varakiel:2….1
Suddenly an incredible magical power floods the room. Everyone turn toward the large door leading to the throne room, where the power is.
Alma: her majesty?
Granberia: she returned!?
Varakiel:…..(this is it, the last wall.)
Luka: alice?
Suddenly, an amplified version of alice's voice rings out of the hallway.
Alice: welcome hero luka, victor over my four heavenly knights…. Now appear before me! the monster lord who rules over the monster domain!
The huge door behind the four heavenly knights slowly swings open.
Varakiel:…..really? that the best you could pull off?
Alice:...….
Varakiel: you could have said, welcome hero luka, champion of humanity, victor over my grand heavenly knights....show yourself to me, the monster lord who rules above everything in this lands.
Granberia:….i have to admit that sounds better…
Tamamo:….she wasn't the best to come up with ominous presentation….
Alma: it does sound better….
Alice: s-shut up idiots I am the monster lord everything I say here is my rule!
Varakiel: now that sounds better!
Luka:…can we move big brother?
Varakiel: ….sorry…alright let's move….
Tamamo: wait..
Varakiel: don't worry I know what to do, leave it to us.
Without looking back varakiel responds to Tamamo.
Then varakiel and luka walks towards the throne room..
*alice 2*
After walking through the passageway, they come to the throne room… and alice was waiting for them.
Alice stares at both of them like they were strangers before she starts to speak.
Alice:….heroes. well done making it here. I am the monster lord, alipheese the sixteenth.
Luka:…..
Luka doesn't know to respond
Varakiel: is an honor your majesty.
Luka: i…
Alice glares at them with cold eyes as luka looks in confusion.
Luka:….(what is going on…)
Varakiel: luka leave it to me, you're too young to comfort people like her….
Varakiel says to luka in his ear…
Luka:big brother…..all right….
Alice: now then…you came to defeat me, didn't you?
Luka: alice we are not---
Varakiel: nothing like that your majesty we have come to make a peace treaty for humans and monsters.
Luka:….
Alice….no, I won't accept that, it's impossible, humans and monsters can't coexist.
Alice says while she clenches her hand hardly…
Varakiel: I would like to refute that your majesty, you see on our adventure to come here we had some monster than decided to accompany us, one of them was a certain lamia…
Alice: I won't hear your stupids rambling, human prepare yourself!
Varakiel: she is really pretty and I honestly I love how her tail looks like such a passionate color for someone so cynical and aloof..
Alice: enough!
Alice then punches varakiel real hard!
Varakiel takes 1500 damage!
12400/13900
Varakiel flinches before continuing…
Varakiel: but under that demeanor hides a girl that is actually quite insecure and doesn't know how to act around others.
Alice: shut up I don't care!
Alice punchs him again!
Varakiel takes 1600 damage!
10800/13900
Varakiel: but yet she tries her best to make friends, even though she claimed that she only cares about herself if you take a bit of attention you'll notice that she is really trying to help around, be it on advice or information about things, I admire because it means she is quite the reader and pays a lot of attention to detail…
Alice: as the monster lord I order you to shut up!
Alice then tries to use her magical eyes…to no effect.
Varakiel: oh yeah eyes, those beautiful eyes, even though I am immune to mental control, I find myself entranced and charmed on such eyes.
Varakiel smiles while looking directly to alice in her eyes….
Alice:…..shut up…..
[magic concentration]
Varakiel: she is really strong aswell the strongest monster I have ever seen, but to my surprise her dreams were quite simple, visit an expensive inn with the sweetest food you could imagine, eat lots of good food….and coe-
Alice: shut up!
Alice doesn't want him to tell her the end of that…
[Omega blaze]
Suddenly a scorching whirlpool of flames is throw to varakiel…
Varakiel takes 4800 damage!
6000/13900
Varakiel is launched by such attack to a wall….
Varakiel:ugh!... coexi-
Alice: shut up!!
With tears on her eyes alice attacks!
Varakiel takes 1200 damage!
4800/13900
Varakiel heals by 2085 !
6885/13900
Luka: coexistence!
Alice:...
Varakiel: such an idiotic dream was on someone so powerful, if others hear her they would laugh at her, before dying of course…
Alice:….why…
Varakiel: honestly she must the luckiest monster in the world she came straight to us on a fight with ilias, she found us by pure luck, me who only wish to protect those I love, and my little brother who had that same wish, coexistence…I told her than If she really wants to get coexistence you need to do 2 things.
Alice: get strong….
Varakiel: and talking, you can't force people to do what you want but you can talk to people to do what they need…after that our adventure began, and with the time I learn how to make her laugh, how she cries, what she fears, what she hates, what she likes, what….torments her….
Alice:….it's because of me that her dream wasn't possible…I just want her dream to be possible…
Varakiel: eventually I figured out what torments her….while I understand why she gets tormented by it and I don't blame her for what she did, the way she wants to achieve her dream is the stupidiest I ever heard about, dying for peace?, there has never been peace on the sacrifice of others, I wouldn't allow her to do such a stupid thing ever, even If I have to suffer for it!
Alice:...
Varakiel:…..alice there's no need to do "this" monster lord and hero thing, your dream, his dream, her dream! Can be achieved by just….talking.
Alice: but I don't know how to talk to others varakiel, I am scared, I am scared of screwing things up like I did before, i am scared if I screw it up I will be left alone *sob*.
Varakiel then hugs her….
Alice: a-ah….
Then slowly alice accepts the hug, the hug of someone who geniually cares for her, of someone who understands her, the hug of someone she loves…
Varakiel: there's nothing to be scared about child, you have us, isn't? you have me to teach you how to do so, and luka to practice with…there's no need to be scared anymore little princess…there's no need to escape…not anymore, lets move forward….together.
Alice: *sob*thank you…*sob* thank you for everything you have done for me…..
Varakiel: there's no need to thank me my child, I only do the things I do for the people I love and I love you too so, I promise you, your dream is indeed idiotic, but not impossible, we can achieve it together!.
Alice:...really?
Varakiel: haven't I give you proof of it already alice?
Luka: yeah alice remember happiness village! Or remember how grand noah already had coexistence, or better yet how we helped to get coexistence in grandgold!
Alice: you're right…*sob* thank you aswell luka…..for everything.
Luka: you're welcome!
Luka says with a smile….
Varakiel: so your majesty what is gonna be?
Alice: I accept your plan for this peace treaty…
Varakiel: good then when everything is over let's go on another journey, for fun~!
Alice: yes.
Luka: yes…for our future journey's sake, we have to build a world where we can coexist together, the four heavenly knights have already agreed to help if with the monster lord and hero we cooperate..ah…I guess I'm not a hero, actually.
Varakiel: no, you're a hero luka, but not for humans, a hero for the future.
Alice: I was going to keep calling him fake hero…but you're right.
Luka: a hero for the future? …I like how that sounds.
Varakiel: very well now…..war….begins.
???: indeed….oh, brave luka…you have chosen the most foolish path….
Suddenly, the room fills with a holy aura, as a heavenly figure descends down.
Luka: granny ilias?
Ilias: hello my dear luka*cof*….what I have feared most of all has come to pass…seduced by the monster lord, you have yielded to her wicked will…..
Varakiel: really that's the best you could think of?
Ilias:….yes, okay?, setting up everything before hand left me without time for better lines even somethings are still missing….ahem after having favored and watched over you for so long, only to be betrayed like this…I am unable to hide my disapp- argh I can't do this I can't call you something like that….*sigh*.
Varakiel: hehe…
Alice:….can you please tell me….what in the fuck is going on here!?
Varakiel: well remember when I locked myself with her in my mind well…I did more than regain her sanity and get her trust….
Ilias then appears alongside varakiel….
Ilias:….huehuehue, my precious varakiel we finally meet, hei!
Ilias then throws herself to varakiel…
Alice: what….the….fuck!
Varakiel: as you can see…well she loves me….way to much actually….ilias please pull yourself together!
Ilias: oh!...sorry my dear...
Ilias then walks back to the middle of the room.
Ilias: where I was ah yes….*cof* luka….you are unqualified to be a hero.
Alice:…..
Varakiel: just follow the flow alice, this is to maintain the timeline correctly this must happen she knows it too.
Alice: I see…..*cof* hmph…unqualified? How can you call someone who fights for others to the bitter end anything but a hero!?
Luka:….alice.
ilias: I am the one to decide the definition of a hero. There is no need for you to interrupt here, you slut
alice: oh?
Varakiel: ilias!
Ilias:*cof* I mean monster lord alipheese.
Alice: varakiel can I punch her?
Varakiel:….let her end please you can do that later….
Luka: ilias, please answer me….are monsters truly such an evil existence?
Ilias:…of course. They are beings who tempt and corrupt humans. There's no exceptions.
Luka:….
Ilias: I am just following the script okay, I personally I don't mind monsters angels or humans anymore I only care about you, varakiel and Lucifina.
Luka: ah…I see, (what she this evil before?, wow big brother is really awesome if he really got her on our side then)
Luka:ilias…is it fated for humans and monsters to fight each other?
Ilias: you know the answer but you know*cof*…..of course. It is inevitable for humans to kill monsters.
Varakiel: (they can act pretty good, hahaha)
Alice: varakiel can I have a moment please?
Varakiel: yes what is it?
Alice: are you sure that I can trust her I can't tell the difference between her "act" and her supposed new self you talked about…
Varakiel: give her time, is really hard for someone to change, you should know that too right?
Alice: y-yeah I think you're right…if you trust her I can trust her, was it?
Varakiel: yeah, just as I trust on you…
Alice:….~.
Luka: I understand. In that case…uh I am sorry granny ilias…I am just saying what I would normally say
Luka speak under his breath
Ilias: don't worry my child I know.
Luka: ilias…you…you're the main obstacle blocking peace!
Luka draws his sword, and points it right at ilias.
Ilias:…pointing your sword at a goddess…that's quite the sin you're commiting…luka, accept your divine punishment.
[lighting of judgment]
But luka easily steps to the side, dodging the bolt!
Luka: is that all?
Ilias:...…..luka…you intend to defy me to the very end? Indeed, it seems as though I couldn't cleanse that dirtied bl*cof* you have.
Varakiel:...….
Alice:...…..
Luka:…(hehe)
Ilias´s face falls in grief. Almost as if the entire area is full of her sorrow….
Ilias:hmm…please forgive me this is a side of me that I don't like you to see..but you know…
Suddenly, the clear aura is flushed in dark anger!
Ilias: let us make this monster lord´s castle into a second remina. Be exterminated with these monsters you adore…corrupted hero luka.
After that, ilias vanishes….?
Ilias suddenly reappears.
Ilias: all right, love you bye you two and alipheese you better take your hands off of varakiel…bye~.
Alice: oh? Now I want to that very thing…
Varakiel: later alice later but now…
In the next moment, the entire castle starts to violently shake!
Luka: woah!? An earthquake!?
Alice: no…this is…..
Varakiel: angels and chimeras….hehe, haha HAHA!!!! LET THE WAR BEGIN! Tamamo, Granberia, Erubetie, alma elma in position!
The heavenly knights are already waiting on the entrance of the throne room.
Varakiel: let's go you two, we have a coexistence to win!
Luka:yes!
Alice: bring them on!
Then varakiel walks out of the throne room with alice and luka on his side.
Varakiel: (I'll protect you no matter what!)
Everyone then rushes outside the castle, since they were prepared before hand they couldn't get inside it.
*boss3*
As they got outside the castle they see both sides already clashing!
Varakiel: luka, Granberia you take care of the angels near the castle, we'll take care of the chimeras!
Luka: understood, but big brother how is Granberia going to fight the angels.
Varakiel: Granberia catch!
Varakiel then throws a blade to Granberia…
[angel killer series: ascalon] a blade meant to fight spirit being such as
Angels, cost 500G
6174G left
Varakiel: use it to fight them!
Granberia: very well lets begin luka!
luka: yes!
Varakiel: it's time for you to shine my dear brother! (high input!)
Luka: uohhhhh!!!!
With an ignited fighting spirit luka charges ahead as he summons the spirits….
…..
Varakiel: Erubetie go back to the spring and give us intel about the situation in sentora.
Erubetie: good!
Erubetie vanishes!
Varakiel: alma elma, remember about fairy island laboratory? Go show them hell! And here use this in case of emergency and please stay safe.
Varakiel then hands a teleporting ball to alma elma.
Alma: leave it to me~!
Alice: hey I am the one that is supposed to be giving the orders…
Varakiel: you want to give an order? Order everyone on the field to guard the gates and not let them pass,.tamamo ready for some fireworks? (lily play nox divina for the whole battle field to hear….ill show them what true fear is.)
Lily: Understood beginning in 3….2…1
Tamamo: oh!!! you even got war music for her? show me what she can truly do.
Alice: who? What did you guys do while I was away from you! And more important where is this music coming from!?
Varakiel: …ARU!
From the dark and deep rooms of the castle a pair of eyes shine with red light…and the owner of said eyes rushes to her master call….
*boom* *boom*
Smashing throw the walls aru walks to varakiel call!
Aru: I detect multiple targets, master what you want me to do?
Varakiel: aru…..release…Artema!!
Aru: ORDER RECEIVED PREPARING TO LAUNCH ARTEMA ALL THE ALLIES ON THE BATTLEFIELD PLEASE RETREAT, I REPEAT ALL THE ALLIES ON THE BATTLEFIELD RETREAT!
Aru's voices reverberates through the whole battlefield.
Varakiel: Let's us begin, here is a trip for you to hell!
….
Luka: isn't that aru voice?(and where is this music coming from)
Salamander: (luka…in varakiel words get your asses out of there!!!)
Luka: !!! Granberia run!!
Granberia:!! understood! (war music? This is going to be good!)
A certain part of the castle begins to brim up with unbelievable magic power.
Alice: this amount of magic power, seriously what is going on!?
Suddenly the whole battlefield goes silent….for a goddess of war as come and she's angry….
Varakiel: My name is ultima…I am power both ancient and unrivaled….
The voice of varakiel goes through the whole battlefield!
Cupid: eh? What is happening? Why is someone perfoming in war?
Valkyrie: this amount of magic power….we need to call a retreat!!
Varakiel: I do not bleed, for I am but strength given form…..
Alice: it keeps increasing!?
Tamamo: amazing such amount of power is allowed to her, how come people forgot about his creator
….
Meanwhile on the other side of the battlefield.
La croix: w-what in hell is this!? Such amount of magic power!?
Promestein:….i think we have done serious miscalculations to the capability of monsters…..
…..
Varakiel: feeble creatures of flesh…..
All the chimeras start to run away in terror thanks to their primal instinct….but It's impossible to escape from death incarnated.
alice: hoi hoi, isn't this exaggerated?
Tamamo: to believe this was her true potential, she might be on the level of the six ancestors…
Luka and Granberia already back can't do anything but look in shock on the sky!
There a gargantuan magic circle is being form, it covers the whole battlefield….
Varakiel: YOUR TIME IS NIGH, ARTEMA!!!!!
[Artema]
And then the world got painted in blue…
........ after several minutes the light started to fade down…..
...…
Aru: Master I need to replenish my magic reserves.
Varakiel: here.
Varakiel then gives to aru all his mp.
Aru: capacity at 5%, entering recharge mode, good night master.
Aru then goes back inside the castle.
Varakiel: thank you aru…..so? what do you think?
Tamamo:… alice:…. Granberia:….
The whole battlefield which was full of the enemy army is completely wipped out not a single trace is left….
Luka:….such thing was created by a human…..
Varakiel: that why I told you, not underestimate humans….or else it will be the downfall of all races….even themselves….
Varakiel then remember the nuclear bombs…
Varakiel: I just can hope the humans of the future aren't that stupid….
Lily: (varakiel we have a small problem with the system…due to you defeating such an amount of enemies the system wants you to decide…pick 500k G or 500k exp…..)
Varakiel: (what!? why is that!?)
Lily: (is your reward for you evaluation up to this point, even though the kills weren't yours you have involment in them, but the system wants you to decide since getting such amount of resources in a short time can make you get bored of the world it let's you pick one of them…)
Varakiel: (alright I'll go with the G, I have constant limit break, but I still need props to grown stronger on the other hand exp isn't that necessary.)
Lily: (good choice varakiel, the system thinks the same thing, its glad that you two think a like.)
Varakiel: (haha)
….
Promestein: completely wiped out!
La croix: since when there was such creature on their side?.
Promestein: this is a complete failure…we must retreat.
Arc-en-ciel: dammit! I didn't get to face Granberia!
….
Meanwhile in heaven.
Black alice:teehee….such a wonderful spell, did you saw it coming, ilias? You don't seem that surprised.
Ilias: it was among the possibilities I foresaw, but they can't use that "thing" for a very long time by now…but I have to admit, I didn't expect it to affect angels as well.
Black alice: but then again we can play with the current humans right? Like you promised?
Ilias: yes, do as you please. These humans are the first failure I created, after all. But your role is…
Black alice: I know, ilias. To retain the necessary dark magic to keep the world in motion, you'r managing us monsters. Teehee…it's difficult keeping the raw amounts of holy and dark magic in balance in the world, isn't it? Because of that, you can't exterminate those monsters you hate so much…
Ilias:…..
Black alice: oh, excuse me if I offended you. Even a goddess like you can't change the laws of the universe…if word got out to the humans, their faith would diminish.
Ilias: I don't want to hear such impudent talk from one I rescued 500 years ago. Don't forget that you are easily replaceable.
Black alice: teehee…I'll be careful, ilias.
Ilias: then let us begin the re-creation. The next generation of "humans" might be complete soon, too.
Black alice: we're all ready to eat up the current humans. We've collected plenty of pure monsters…and the new generation of monsters, too.
Ilias: now, the preparations are finished let's build a more peaceful world, brimming with faith…
Black alice: allright see you later then….
Black alice then vanishes.
Ilias: hmph, crazy bitch I don't need you and I don't need faith, I don't need others to worship me, I need just the people than love me and believe in me…..luka, Lucifina….varakiel…~.
Then around the world the leaders of the different cities.
Sabasa:
….
Grandmaster knight: your majesty! They are coming!
The king with a high aura stands up.
The King of sabasa: just like the hero varakiel predicted, prepare all the troops and the delay plan if they want to get in our city we'll give them a fight they won't ever forget!
Guards: OH!!!!
The vampires didn't even have time to infiltrate….
…
Grand noah:
Arthur: your majesty they are here!
Jean: hmph., they dare to attack my people? Prepare everyone, the city we build together is not falling to some renegade monsters!
Cerberus: understood!
….
Grand gold
Queen ant: they are coming…
Grandgold king: like the hero luka told us? Prepare the magicians, the golems, we are fighting on this together!
Queen ant:….good.
…..
Back to the monster lord castle.
Varakiel: Granberia you must go to sabasa to protect it from vampires….luka you have to go to san ilia,call galda to go straight there, Tamamo you will go to grand gold the spider princess will be there….
Granberia: got it!
Granberia quickly vanishes!
Luka: understood! Galda, come!
Galda: kweh!
Luka then calls galda to travel!
Tamamo: ho? Ill show her what happens when someone betrays the monster lord.
Tamamo then vanish….
Alice: what about me then?
Varakiel: you're staying with me to use telepathy and communicate any information between the four of them…and also to protect you from their seal..speaking of which..(lily an item to protect her from that seal, I have a lot of money and I will use it!)
Lily: alright!...ding!
[omni ring] with this ring the wieldier will be immune to all the status illments possible.
16000 G
Varakiel: (good!)
6000- 506674= 490674G
Varakiel: here with this ring anything they try on you will be useless.
Alice: cool!
Alice then quickly puts on the ring.
Alice: does it fit me?
Varakiel: perfectly~! But now let's go! To grand noah!
As varakiel says that he transforms is clothes into Avalon outfit.
Alice: do you really have to put a Kitsune mask?
Varakiel: absolutely! Ready?
Alice:….varakiel….let's go!
Varakiel then grabs alice hand and teleports to grand noah!
…..
Heaven.
Eden: goddess ilias…promestein has failed to invade the monster lord castle...
Ilias: yes….i am very aware of that.
Eden: you ordered the monster lord's castle, the monster lord, and the hero to be all destroyed, and the only one destroyed were us, this is a grave sin, that besmirches your divine presence. You must punish that one…
Ilias:….i'll do so when everything is over….i was expecting her to fail completely from the very start, after all they have "him" with them….
Eden: him? You mean the fake hero luka?
Ilias: don't call him like that!
Eden: forgive me goddess ilias!.
Eden the postrates herself to ilias.
Ilias: eden….please stand up and sit down…I will tell you something that happened to me some years ago….
Eden: what? what happened to you goddess ilias!?
Ilias:....i meet a men, I meet him….and he help me to realize a lot of things, things than I am ashamed of…..eden, my child, do you fear me?
Eden: eh? What kind of question is that goddess ilias!
Ilias: just answer me! and no lies!
Eden:….i do fear you goddess ilias, but isn't that's how it meants to be? You created us to follow your every command, but if we don't fear we wouldn't be able to follow your command.
Ilias: I see, so that was my reason In the past, you can go, eden, I need to be alone for now…and also thank you for all your hard work until this point.
Eden: yes, thank you for your kind words!
…...
Eden then leaves the place where ilias was.
Eden: who is this men…..ilias never praised me before…
Then eden remembers what ilias said when she called luka the fake hero luka.
Eden:it was him? No that can't be such lowly hero couldn't have done something like that.
Eden then wanders off while trying to figure out what could have happened to ilias.
...
Varakiel and alice then arrives on grand noah.
Just right outside the city walls a battle field is being taking place on…..
Varakiel: can you see where the queen is?
Alice: I can smell her, follow me…
Alice then slithers to somewhere near the wall…
There the queen of grand noah jean, was giving orders.
Jean: ah, its you!
Alice: we have come to help…
Varakiel: you stay here and protect her alice, they might try to assasinate her.
Alice: understood.
And just like that varakiel jumps down from the wall!
Varakiel: lily play that song for the whole battlefield to hear!
Lily: (understood)
Then the drums rage!!
Varakiel then moves forward.
Varakiel: HA!
One hit one kill move forward!
Varakiel: (are you guys still alright?)
Salamander: (so far so good…)
Undine: (I don't feel anything different…)
Varakiel: (hmmm it seems they haven't done that yet, that means next destination remina.) [serene mind: stage 3]
Varakiel then enters a high state of serene mind.
Varakiel: HA!! [Tidal Beheading]
In just an instant defeats tens of opponents.
Knightroid: who is that? stop him!
Then several chimeras surround varakiel.
Varakiel sheates his blade..
Varakiel:….*inhales*…..
Then all of them charge together at him!
[Iai]
Varakiel: *exhales*….HA!.
A barrage of winds blades is release has varakiel slash forward.
Then the chimeras fall to the ground.
Varakiel then rushes forward to help some ally monsters and he also notices there are no humans outside just like he suggested….but.
Arthur: thank you sir Avalon!
Varakiel: can you keep fighting?
Arthur: for my city, I will fight to the death!
Varakiel:….well said…
Then he points his blade to the sky…
Varakiel:....Warriors!!!!
A powerful and piercing voice resounds through the battlefield.
Guard: huh? Isn't that Avalon!?
Guard: ohray!
Varakiel: is this how you plan to win this war!? hiding behind the walls while your fellow monsters put their lives on the line!?
Guard:….
Guard:….
Most of them begin to look the ground ashamed, while others cower in fear…but some grip their weapons harder.
Arthur: is that you….sir varakiel?
Varakiel: follow me we will show them that, humans and monsters can fight together.
Arthur: it will be an honor sir!
Varakiel: very well try to keep up with me, use this blade.
Varakiel then hands an ascalon to Arthur.
Arthur: very well!
Varakiel: stop hiding behind those walls And stand up and fight! True warriors fight for what they believe, protect what they love, warriors rage!!!
Guard: OH!!!!!
Guard: OH!!!!!
Then the guards inside grand noah leave the walls and join the battlefield!
Varakiel: Good! Thats how a Warrior act, without doubt, always looking forward,with their heart as one!. IN FORMATION!
Guards: OH!
Then the guards align while moving forward forming a wall!
Varakiel then charges forward accompanied by Arthur.
Varakiel: soldiers….LET THE DRUMS IN YOUR HEART RAGE WITH THUNDER!!! (lily play it now!)
Then the whole battlefield is lit up in fire!
Lily: Varakiel you due to the resonancy of fire and your inspirous speech you have created a new skill…..
[Fiery Battle Command] "LET THE DRUMS IN YOUR HEART RAGE!!!" Ignite the Fight spirit of your nearby allies making only able to receive damage from physical and magic attacks, ultimately making pleasure, mind control even damage to one soul useless. 1000 MP per minute.
Then several humans charge in formation
Varakiel: Lets show them we don't fear to fight for our lives!!!
Humans: ROAR!!!!
Varakiel and Arthur taking the lead of the advance, slashes at their enemies meanwhile the warriors and guards of grand noah rescue some of the monsters that were under siege.
Guard: Help me contain it!
A guard pierces a chimera with his spear and instantly the others follow him.
Oni girl: oh thank you!!
The oni girl who was being overwhelm use the chance to attack!
Cerberus: thank you!
The Cerberus with her claws starts to counterattack aswell.
The same was happening all over the battlefield.
some of them get in a tactical formation and move forward with humans…
….
On the walls of grand noah.
Alice: hmmm…impressive, so this is how he deals with war, using everyone potential to the fullest…if he was against us he will be a really hard opponent.
Jean: indeed, we are in luck than varakiel is an ally of coexistence…and what is with this melody even me is getting in high spirit to go to the battlefield because of it.
Alice: he really likes to give surprises...~
…..
Varakiel: shield squad support the injured for a tactical retreat, assault squad split up in 4 humans and 1 monster each!
Arthur: Understood!
Cerberus: you heard the hero, Move!
Soldiers: OH!
Then as varakiel ordered they split up in squads composed of 4 humans and a monster.
Varakiel: Arthur you will command a garrison to delay their reinforcements!
Arthur: understood!
Varakiel: Cerberus you will be in care of the Gate squad!
Cerberus: I won't allow them to pass!
Varakiel: good! Now…CHARGE!!!
Grand noah: OH!!!!
Varakiel: (girls I am counting on you let's go!)
Salamander: (Bring them on!)
Undine: (even though I don't like war….Count on me varakiel!)
Sylph and gnome were helping luka….
Has varakiel charges ahead he summons the power of the spirits.
Varakiel: salamander let the flames of judgenment guide my blade!
[Hellfire]
Varakiel: Undine let your calmness and wisdom reside on my heart!
[serene mind]
Varakiel: HA!
He clashes against the chimeras while being followed by the grand noah army!
Varakiel: Push! With the might of earth!
[Ragnarok]
Varakiel then launch a blade made of earth element to the enemy!
Varakiel: Charge!
Guards: OH!!
Varakiel then continues to push the frontline with the monsters and humans of grand noah.
…..
Varakiel: leave the commander to me keep pushing them out of our city!!
Guards and monsters: OH!!!
Then the army of humans and monsters ignore the knightroid and keep pushing the enemy army!
After a long time, the tide of the battle went on huge favor for grand Noah!
Knightroid: is my defeat, hero.
Varakiel: you fought well, I will give you a death with honor.
Then varakiel pierces the commander of the assault.
Knightroid: thank you…
The Knightroid then fall to the floor death with a calm expression.
*epilogue*
Varakiel: grand Noah! We have won!!!
Then humans and monsters cheer together!
….
Alice: (this is it; this is what I…. what we truly aim, unity to fight together.....for the future!)
Jean: wonderful, truly wonderful such display of charisma and strength, he deserves to be called a champion.
Alice: I agree with you…
…..
Varakiel: fiu….that went pretty well….fiery battle command huh? Is a great skill.
Varakiel then sheates his blade and walks back to the castle, healing anyone injured on the way…..
Arthur: thank you for your rescue sir varakiel
Varakiel: mhm, but is not done yet, don't let your guard down there might be more assaults in the future….
Arthur: understood!
Varakiel: but for now...
Varakiel on top of the wall…
Varakiel: Grand noah! Remember this day as the day humans and monsters fought together, and prevailed!!
Humans and monsters: OH!!
Varakiel: now go back to your families tell them as long we have each other nothing will make us fall! For coexistence!!
Cheers!!!
In the throne room alice, varakiel and jean are reunited.
Jean: splendid varakiel truly splendid, wouldn't you like to rule by my side?
Varakiel: I am afraid I can't do that, hehe.
Alice hands clench hardly as jean mentions that.
Alice: yeah he can't we have still other places to go.
Varakiel: (someone is jealous~~.) indeed we will take our leave.
Jean: very well…sir varakiel, as the queen of grand noah, I deeply thank you for your service to my kingdom, if you want anything I will make my best efforts to do so, absolute anything~.
Jean says seductively
Varakiel: hehe, alright ill consider it, let's go alice!
Alice:….good.
…..
Leaving the throne room varakiel and alice review where to go next….
Alice: so where we should go now?
Varakiel: I am sure all the other places are safe, so let's make a visit to our enemies….to remina we go, hehehe.
Alice: hmm? I like the sound of that do you have something to punch angels?
Then varakiel boughts alice a pair of [energy series:mana knuckles]
Varakiel: here, the same I got for alma.
Alice: great~. Now I can fight angels too….physically at least…
Varakiel: actually your spells can work aslong you use the knuckles as a catalyst
Alice: oh really? Hehehe your toys are really fun~.
Varakiel: those knuckles are worth 15 happiness honey break them and no more honey for 2 weeks
understood?
Alice: yes, sir!
Varakiel: allright let's move on then…
Varakiel then teleports with alice to the nearest place to remina..
….
Alice: allright let's go.
Varakiel: mhm….
Eventually both of them arrive remina.
Alice: the place that needed to disappear was it?
Varakiel: mhm, we wouldn't be here if this place didn't become like this…
Alice:….so how are you going to find this entrance?
Varakiel suddenly transforms in Gregar beast…
Alice:¿?
Varakiel: alice is better if you cover your ears….*inhales*
Alice: !!
Alice quickly covers her ears.
Varakiel then use Gregar roar!
ROAR!!!!!
…..
Varakiel: follow me I found it…
Alice: how?
Varakiel: I used echolocalization.
Alice: oh? Handy…
Varakiel and alice then walks to a hatch
Alice: is this the entrance?
Varakiel: should be.
Alice: all right what are we waiting for?
Varakiel: okay okay.
Varakiel and alice then get inside together…
*labo1*
Then like going from the past to the future the scenary changes from ruins to a high tech facility..
Alice: hm? What a change.
Varakiel: yeah, Is kind of weird haha.
There are strange machines lining all the walls. No idea what they are for…
Varakiel: but oh well, there's nothing usefull here so….hei~.
Varakiel then proceeds to cut wires, destroy random panels whenever he go.
Alice: Oh? We are doing that?
Varakiel: just don't over do it and get the whole facility collapse on our heads.
Alice: allright~.
Varakiel: but I have to admit the technology here is quite advanced…oh hey a camera! Alice look say hello to our friends!
Varakiel then waves his hands to a camera near the end of the room.
Varakiel can't be seen due to presence concealment….
Alice: a what?
Varakiel: oh right sorry, a camera is a device that let's you look in a place from far away.
Alice: so they spotted us?
Varakiel:they don't work on me, only you, but is not like it matters right?
Alice: true!
Alice then rushes to the camera and get her face close to it.
Alice: so how it works?
….
Promestein: what's going in here? Why the place began to get destroy before she even moved or use magic, this is too weird….
La croix: indeed…..so what are we doing?
Promestein: let her come, we will seal her and the hero luka won't even be aware of it….
La croix: sounds like a plan…but I am afraid I need to leave, good luck…not like you need it.
La croix then vanishes.
…..
Varakiel: I can explain later for now lets keep moving.
As they keep moving forward.
An ear-splitting klaxon fills the air!
Alice: an alarm? Good let them come~.
Varakiel: mhm…
….
But nobody came..
Alice: weird….is no one in here?
Varakiel: hehe, they probably want you to go directly to them to seal you.
Alice: what a surprise we got for them then~
Varakiel and alice then keeps moving forward….
Alice: the structure here is rather simple, just a wide hallway with rooms to the sides, and these machines what are they for?
Varakiel: probably to create more chimeras.
The alarm keeps ringing out, but still no one comes.
Varakiel: but still they must think of you as a very valuable person to let us go this deep in their base.
Alice: I am the monster lord of course I am the most valuable person out there.
Varakiel: you got a point, ms monster lord.
Varakiel then notices the large water tanks in the perimeter…full of chimeras….
Varakiel:...
Varakiel aura turns blood red….
Alice:…..can you do something for them?
Varakiel: I don't think so,their very dna has been changed, still even if I could repair their bodies their souls might be beyond repair…but I can grant them a peaceful death…
Alice:….go ahead ill wait for you….
Varakiel then opens the water tanks and gently takes the lives of the chimeras…some of them thanks him.
Varakiel:….let's go.
Alice: are you okay?
Varakiel: no, experimenting with life like this is not okay, they don't have self preservation, will or anything that can makes them living beings, they are zombies, most likely because they were innocent people and couldn't handle the pain on their souls, on the other hand criminals tend to have a stronger soul.
Alice:...
Varakiel: let's just move on….i don't want to get angry not with you in here.
Alice: ….alright.
Varakiel: it seems we are almost there…you go ahead, I need to calm down.
Alice: okay~.
Alice then smashes the door open.
In the room are highly advanced looking machines and in the middle of the room…
Promestein:…Oh? You arrived awfully fast, alipheese. Still, how did you find the entrance to this laboratory? I didn't think that hatch was easy to locate…
Alice: hmph, I have my methods I am not the monster lord only for my strength.
Promestein: I see, so the current monster lord isn't that naïve as I though, another miscalculation I see…so what have you came for?
Alice: isn't obvious? I have come to take out the leader, and finish this early.
Promestein: I see that actually a great plan, sadly for you we got countermeasures in place for you now, whew…monsterd lord, you will have the same fate as the dark god and the six ancestors.
Alice: oh? Really? Try me then.
Alice then charges to promestein.
The moment alice's blow was about to pound into promestein…a magic seal appears on alice, stopping her!
Alice:…..(hehehe, just as he planned.)
Alice with a smug doesn't try to fight back.
An intense electricity fills the air as the magic seal flickers tremendous magical power fills the air, charging the atmosphere itself….but.
*shatters*
Like glass breaking up the seal is broken.
Promestein: !!!
Promestein opens her eyes in shock.
Alice: really? The six ancestors' great seal? That's the best you could think of? And here I though you were the smartest being in this world….
Promestein In fear steps back..
Promestein: w-what is this! What happened? the plan should be flawless!
Alice: you really believe the six ancestors great seal, something developed from the dark god alipheese wouldn't be a matter of research to us? It seems your arrogance is as high as your intelligence….
Promestein:…..
Alice: we already developed a way to counter it out that and other kind of seals, all in this small ring…~. .
Promestein:…I see, I have to admit it ,I have underestimated the monsters, I guess my only chance is to fight back…this is a perfect opportunity. I wanted to try this body in actual combat….and against the monster lord even, it's a special gene I implanted in my own body!
Promestein's clothes start to expand and spread open…it looks like her body itself is bubbling underneath it!
Alice: you really dared to experiment on your own body?....what is this? Aura of monster magic coming from you?
Promestein: you should have saw them already, didn't you? The mixture of angel and monster, my own body is the final product of those experiments.
Promestein's coat rips as the transformed body bursts it open, strange plant-like organs come off her body, making her look just like a terrifying amalgam of plant monsters….
Alice: wait? S…seaweed!?
Promestein: indeed, an extinct life form close to the origin of all monsters. You plebeian may not understand what it means, but I have revived an extinct life form! After experimenting on thousands of monsters, I chose this monster sea weed to be a part of my very body!
Alice: hmm…why are you proud of being part seaweed, are you an idiot?
….
Promestein: it seems like I am not match to a monster lord even with this body.
Alice: it looks like you're having trouble, professor seaweed, are you giving up?, if so, you have to come with me someone might be interested in your capabilities~.
Promestein: I am not done yet I still hold my trump card!
Alice:…
Promestein whips out a syringe, filled with a strange liquid, and pierces her own neck with it!
Promestein: it's shameful for a researcher to use an item that hasn't been properly tested first….but I'll be able to get over it once I destroy you here!
Alice: that looks very dangerous indeed.
Promestein: I can't return to my original body anymore with this…but if it's to destroy you here…!
But before promestein could inject the liquid into her neck…a figure suddenly appeared near her and stole the syringe!
Promestein: !!! who are you!?
Alice: oh? It seems you couldn't wait any longer, is that thing really dangerous?
Varakiel: indeed…
Varakiel sitting in a chair was looking at the content of the syringe.
Varakiel: we finally meet, promestein, the truth seeker.
Promestein:….who are you?
Varakiel: my name is varakiel is a pleasure to meet you at last, I have to admit you have a lovely laboratory, a shame to see such potential squandered….
Varakiel then looks at promestein and then the syringe..
Varakiel: the white rabbit was it?...to imagine this thing is a catalyst that would drive the whole reality to create chaos again…
Promestein: who are you!? How do you know about the white rabbit!? Are you working for black alice?
Varakiel: oh don't mistake I don't work for anyone, even less a demon like her….ill cut to the chase, I don't want to entangle in a long conversation, join us.
Promestein: Oh? And what you can possible give me than I don't have already?
Alice: is seems you don't realize you have no mean to escape, your only options is die or join us.
Promestein: and do you think I care about that?
Varakiel: I know you don't….but if you don't value your life promestein, I don't think you wouldn't even realize the real truth.
Promestein: the real truth? and how a monkey like you can possible know about that?
Promestein says with a smug on her face.
Varakiel: oh and you know the real truth?
Promestein: of course I know the truth.
Varakiel: but is the truth of this world is it?
Promestein:....
Varakiel: what about the truth of the universe?
Promestein: that….
Varakiel: what about the truth of existence?
Promestein:...
Varakiel: not enough? Then the truth of the future…
Promestein:…..what is the point of valuing my life on that?
Varakiel: oh it seems I got your interest, follow me, and I can show those truths the truth of how the universe was created, why we exist, why there's always a future, at the same time…
Promestein: you're lying a human can't possibly know that!
Alice: hehe, he might not know it yet but, he's not the kind of guy that lies you know, and he's not a regular human….
Promestein: what do you mean?
Varakiel: my name is varakiel, I come from another universe, you can call my universe the prime universe, from there the past and future of your universe, and an infinite amount of other universes as been and will be recorded.
Promestein: what!? that's impossible!
Alice: he speaks the truth angel, or fake angel will suit you more….he knows the past and future of this world to a certain extent, how do you think he knows this experiments of yours, why do you think you lose this war already~.
Varakiel: indeed, I know everything that could have happen, but enough explanations, choose, I will teach you to value life, so I can let you the chance to see the real truths, the universe, the existence, and the future truths….Or die with the regret of not knowing those things.
Promestein:…..prove it, prove me that you come from another world.
Varakiel: alright. ((lily open a portal to miller.)) (girls I will go to another world for a bit go with luka for now.)
Salamander: (alright.)
Undine: (be safe dear.)
Alice: so how are you going to do it?
Varakiel: easy….*snap*
Suddenly a blue portal is open up!
Varakiel: let's go to another universe!
Promestein:!! That easily!? Just who are you?
Varakiel: want to know the answer? Come with me.
Varakiel then goes inside the portal, and alice follows him.
Alice: (I wonder which kind of place are other universes like….)
Promestein:....
Promestein began to doubt…what if it's a trap….but what if its true.
Promestein:….other universes? Is really possible?...
Promestein hesitating goes throw the portal…..
*splash*
Varakiel: ah you are here, alright I welcome both of you to the planet miller.
Alice: …so this is were you came to train uh? Is….wet.
Alice curiously looks around.
Promestein: w-what kind of place is this!?
Varakiel: well even though this place looks like this, is not actually made of water entirely is just that the waves were so strong that any land is gone, look….
Varakiel then looks back…..
Alice:w-wait they weren't joking when they said the waves were that big!?
Promestein: I-incredible!
Promestein without her stoic and proud demeanor is taking notes of the planet, she is like her younger self full of curiosity…
Varakiel: allright you two come here if you don't want to get caught by them.
Varakiel then makes a bubble shield to appear…
Alice and promestein then get inside of it…..
Promestein: I-impressive all of the remaining water is on those waves?
Varakiel: indeed.
Promestein: m-may I know what causes it I can't figure it out!
Varakiel: I only give answers to my allies.
Promestein: t-that...just promise that you would take me to any other world you go!
Varakiel: (who is this cute little girl and where did the proud scientist go?)
Varakiel: alice, any objection?
Alice: why should i? you crearly want her on your side.
Varakiel: ill take that as a no….alright then I welcome you to my team promestein….ill present you to everyone later….
Promestein: okay, n-now tell me the answer!
Varakiel: well…..look up!
Promestein and alice look up
Alice: w-what is that!?
Promestein: i-is t-that?
Varakiel: yeah is a black hole, or more precisely, a supermassive black hole, it's code name is gargantua and we are currently orbiting it, due to the gravitational pull the water is constantly moving.
Promestein: I-incredible! To such thing to be able happen is a miracle by itself!
Varakiel: alright, if you are going to join my family there things you should know, first…..
Promestein:…..
Varakiel then explains his objectives to promestein and about his team, Chaldea.
…..
Promestein: a team to research the future you say?
Varakiel: exactly the goal is to protect the future and our family.
Promestein: I don't get it but it sounds interesting, alright I am in…
Varakiel: great!, welcome aboard promestein, is great to have you!
Varakiel then extends his hand for a handshake.
Promestein:...
Promestein accepts the handshake.
Promestein: is an honor to work with you varakiel.
Varakiel: haha, don't be so polite with me, if you ever feel unsatified with something let me know!
Promestein:….very well.
Alice: alright so can we leave already? Unless there's something else to see here, lets move on.
Varakiel: alright (lily open the portal please.).
Lily: no problem.
…..
Then the portal opens up.
Varakiel: alright, so promestein you remember what do you have to do?
Promestein: yes, trick black alice until you reach heaven so luka kills her right?
Varakiel:mhm.
Promestein: but what about la croix and alice XV corpse?
Alice: what did you said!?
Varakiel:...
Alice: varakiel you know about this!? What does she means about my mother's corpse!
Varakiel:…w-well….i am sorry I didn't tell you about this before, alice….la croix defiled your mother tomb to create a zombie….
Alice: what!? why didn't you tell me before!?
Varakiel: I just didn't want you to worry about it, I was going to deal with it myself without worrying you….i am sorry.
Alice:....how the hell were you going to "deal" with it? .
Varakiel:...…
Alice:...…let me guess….
Varakiel: yes I was going to revive her with sacred necromancy….
Alice:...…no, I don't want you to do that….
Varakiel:....i understand….i am sorry….
Alice: just tell me about those things beforehand In the future….idiot….but thank you for trying…and sorry for yelling at you….
Varakiel: don't worry, i am at fault too, I should have asked about your opinion…..
Promestein: I am sorry to interrupt, but can we move? The next wave is coming and I don't want my laboratory to be full of water….
Varakiel: right, lets go.
…..
Then varakiel, alice and promestein are back in the laboratory.
Promestein: so what do you want me to do with the four towers?
Varakiel: just proceed as normal we already have a way to counter their effects and even use them on our favor.
Promestein: impressive, so it was my lost from the very start…you are really interesting, varakiel.
Varakiel: and so are you promy.
Alice:….what?
Promestein:…..what?
Varakiel: your nick name from now on is promy
Alice:…..
Promestein:....
Varakiel: if you want to learn to value life first you need to learn to value the interactions you have with others, so let's begin with nicknames!
Promestein: c-can I change it?
Varakiel: no.
Promestein:…..
Varakiel: I think promy is a cute nickname it suit you!
Promestein:….fine (this human is….weird but at the same time interesting….show me what the cosmos has and will create, world traveler.)
Varakiel: alright then we will take our leave see you later promy~, also sorry for damaging your laboratory~.
Varakiel then teleports to the monster lord castle while holding alice hand.
….
Varakiel: ah wait I forgot to give her the white rabbit back …..and I want to have a private conversation see you later little princess
Alice:…..idiot…..see you later.
Varakiel then hands her a bunch of snacks.
Alice: !! take care~.
Alice says happily.
Varakiel: (cute as always)
….
Varakiel teleports back to the laboratory.
He notices a bunch of machinery working to repair the place.
Promestein: hm? Did you forgot something?
Promestein was sitting on her desk checking out documents.
Varakiel: wow you work really fast, tall beauties really look pretty when they work…
As varakiel says he sits on a chair nearby.
Promestein:….so what do you want? also I don't remember mentioning that you could come and go in my laboratory as you please.
Varakiel: aw don't be like that promy, in the future we will get along a lot so let's begin to do so earlier, here your white rabbit…
Varakiel then hands the white rabbit syringe to promestein.
Promestein: right…I forgot you took it from me….
Promestein then pick it up and puts it on a case.
Promestein: ¿? Anything else? Don't you have a monster lord to take care of?
Varakiel: aw don't be like that, didn't you want to come with me to other worlds right? Let me tell you about one of the worlds I will go soon.
Promestein: !! w-wait let me get my notes.
Varakiel: (hehe, she is really cute~.)
Promestein: alright!, now tell me what kind of world is it?
Promestein excitedly begins to ask several questions….
…..
Promestein: interesting, a world within a world?
Varakiel: indeed in the data world humans use their PET's to help their navi's to dwell into it.
Promestein: is it possible for a living being to get inside of it.
Varakiel: there might be, but so far no ones as got that far in that world yet.
Promestein: hm…..and what is your reason to go there? It can't possible be to get their technology….
Varakiel: good guess, you see inside of me is the soul of a being of that world, it's name is Gregar, If you want a classification for him, you can say he's a calamity by himself….
Promestein: how so?
Varakiel: you see with a simple roar out of him he can completely destroy any technology has he pleases, actually that was my original plan if you didn't decide to join me.
Promestein:….can I see this Gregar?
Varakiel: for sure
Varakiel then turn into g-beast.
Promestein: !! what is this?
Promestein then get's very close to inspect varakiel new appearance.
Promestein: incredible a complete assimilation without issues, and without the reject of foreign objects…..is there a way for me to study it?
Varakiel: I can let you the soul of the Gregar from the world I am going to, his soul is useless to me, but I need the body for the Gregar on me.
Promestein: good! Tell me when you go to that world, their technology might be usefull in the future.
Varakiel: thats sounds like a plan.
Promestein: now tell me about this team of you, how was it call? Chaldea?
Varakiel: mhm, the objective of Chaldea is to research anything you can think of, but that research needs to be a benefit for our future, if it's something like create a new life form, or merge other life form like your chimeras, they won't have priority but they can be done.
Promestein: was it you the one who killed the chimeras in the laboratory?
Varakiel: mhm, listen I am not against your experiments or research's about them, but my breaking point is when you use innocent people for them, I can tolerate them as long you use criminals and killers for them…you might think this leaves you with little test subjects….
Promestein:…..is this another test to value life?
Varakiel: it would be if I told you to not do it anymore, don't worry I won't ever tell you to stop, you are a scientist, this is what you do, test the limits of something and getting it to new lengths.
Promestein: mhm, it seems I got a great boss that isn't narrow minded.
Varakiel: hehe, but still since you are part of my team you're my family, I will respect every wish you have, aslong it doesn't hurt yourself, if that's the case I will try to find a more safe approach.
Promestein: eh, your family you say? Should I start calling you brother then? Haha.
Varakiel: hehe, call me whatever you fell more comfortable.
Promestein: alright, varakiel, now keep telling me about other worlds!
Varakiel: as you wish.
Promestein excitedly continues to ask about other worlds.
....
Promestein: ehhh…so there are really are lot of worlds out there, gods, demons, monsters, humans and a lot more species I don't know about, you are a treasure trove varakiel!
Varakiel: alright alright calm down, it's still a long way for me to go to worlds with gods and demons, let me tell you this world we are in is barely in the middle point on the scale of power.
Promestein: what!? only the middle and just barely!?
Promestein excitedly leans forward to varakiel.
Varakiel: mhm, let me tell you something the world than I have knowledge of being one of the strongest is one where the final fight involves throwing galaxies at each other like they were rocks.
Promestein:...…
Promestein goes blank…..
Varakiel:….hello earth to promestein?
Promestein:….are you kidding right?
Varakiel: nope, such world exist, but I will tell you about it later, for now we will go to worlds were I can get something out of them without putting our lifes on danger a lot.
Promestein: then what world are you going next?
Varakiel: mhm, let me tell you somethings about this world, in my world we call it [konosuba]
Promestein: ¿? Is that the language of your world?
Varakiel: mhm, alright so the main reason I am going to that world is that you can get very strong killing the creatures on that world and you can easily learn magic on there….also….
Varakiel then tells about the adventure guild and the status card and how easy it makes for others to learn magic and other skills.
….
Promestein: wait, are you saying that people in that world can learn things with relative ease?
Varakiel: mhm, as long you tell them the theory and related things they can learn it with a single touch on their status card.
Promestein: very interesting!
Varakiel: indeed, there's a lot of things I want to try in that world.
Promestein: I wonder If I can get that technology….
Varakiel: we might be able to do so….(if we defeat the demon king we can ask for it to the gods hehehe.)
Promestein: great seems you have a plan already.
Varakiel: kind of….now tell me what are you going to do now?
Promestein: besides following the so called plot of the world as you told me?...i honestly I am intrigued, how can you travel to other universes with ease?
Varakiel: oh well, I can present you to the one that helps me out…(lily?)
Lily: (are you sure varakiel?)
Varakiel: (mhm, I know I can trust her, the more I show her my trust on her the more her trust on me, and I honestly I like her a lot, she is on my top 10 girls of this world)
Lily: (….understood if the host believes then the system does aswell….)
Then varakiel extends his hand to promestein.
Varakiel: grab my hand she will speak with you.
Promestein:…..¿? alright.
Promestein grabs varakiel hand…
Lily: (hello, angel promestein…)
Promestein: !? who!?
Varakiel: let her explain herself to you.
Promestein:….understood.
Lily then presents herself to promestein and what is her objective.
…..
Promestein: I see….so there are higher beings outhere that bestow this powers on others…..varakiel, thank you very much, you have open up my eyes, there's a lot for me to explore and research still, from the bottom of my heart thank you for this chance.
Promestein then bows to varakiel.
Varakiel: there's no need honestly I liked you quite a lot even before meeting you face to face, even though I don't like your methods, you managed to create creatures capable to defeat the strongest monster and almost conquer the world with only your intellect, I must admit, before ilias you are the strongest of them all.
Promestein: oh? It seems you hold me in great steem, and I must admit aswell, you managed to defeat my plans in a single day at the same time, I had a lot of countermeasures if one of them failed, but all of them failing at the same time wasn't something I could foresaw. I like you, it seem our relantionship will be great.
Varakiel: hehe, is nice to work with you promy.
Promestein: haha, it is indeed varakiel….but can you please change that nickname?
Varakiel: no, promy is a cute nickname it suits you!
Promestein: cute? (….what is this feeling?....shame? no, is not that….could it be? Happiness?.....~.)
Varakiel then notices than promestein slightly smiles.
Varakiel: (it seems she also likes to be compliment, hehe, so cute.) alright, time to take my leave see you later promy…..here.
Varakiel hands a teleportation ball to promestein.
Promestein: ¿? What is this?
Varakiel: if you are in danger due to black alice discovering our plans or eden aswell, think of me as you use it, so I get teleported to your location and help you out!
Promestein:…..interesting (this feeling again….he's really interesting…)
Promestein then pick's it up.
Promestein: alright I will save it up.
Promestein then save's it up on her lab coat….
Varakiel: alright, see you later…also you know about chrome? La croix sister, she is a member of Chaldea aswell so take care of her, she is in witch hunt village.
Promestein: she is worth of joining your team?....hmm I need to reevaluate her capabilities then.
Varakiel then vanishes….
Promestein:…..haha, other worlds sounds fun….(promy uh?.....~.)
Promestein then get's back to work with a smile on her face.
….
Varakiel teleports back to the castle.
Alice: hm? What took you so long?
Varakiel: well I needed to be sure that she was on our side so I had to win her trust even more, for now you can say that we are good friends.
Alice:…..good, so what now?
Varakiel: now we wait until everyone else is done, we will remain here on stanby in case something goes wrong.
Alice: great...
Varakiel:…..
Then an awkward silence begins…..
Alice:…d-do you want me to show you the castle?
Varakiel: (hehe, I like the cute and shy alice.) sure!.
Alice: good follow me then.
Then alice happily gives a tour of her castle to varakiel.
