Fate/White Moon (Fate/Nasuverse Quest)

Zhaitan · Jul 5, 2018

The Holy Grail War, an obscure ritual that regularly takes place every sixty years on a remote island in the far east and an absolute waste of time and effort.

At least that's what most magi would believe upon learning the basics, a pipe dream of a ritual not worthy of their attention. They wouldn't be wrong to assume that, as even history itself backs up this viewpoint, since even after many consecutive Grail Wars not one single master has achieved the promised prize, their wish granted by the Grail.

Even If the Magi in question knew that this ritual was painstakingly created by the culmination three Magi families' efforts, the average Magi still wouldn't change their mind, many Magi practice outright ridiculous paths to reach the root with unswerving conviction, that doesn't make their path towards the Root the correct one in the minds of others.

Yet this ritual was made not just by the Einzbern, Makiri and Tohsaka, no it's entire creation was helped by one of the most revered people in the entire Magus Association, Wizard Marshal Kischur Zelretch Shweinorg, a man capable of defeating a Type single-handedly. Perhaps if the Magi learned this they would put more stock into this so called Holy War or maybe not. The Magician's eccentricities were well known among Magi, it was even expected for the man to drive all his apprentice's insane, it wouldn't be too far a stretch for such a man to create a honey pot to lure the foolish and desperate.

Regardless of whether the average Magi's opinion holds water or not, the war must go on for the grail has decided, you have been chosen by the Holy Grail as a participant of this grand event, so rejoice for your deepest desires shall come to fruition!

Now who are you?

[] You are Shiki Ryougi you don't have much to say about yourself or your capabilities, skilled with a sword and an exceptional martial artist by modern human standards. You aren't particularly sociable, but you have your other half to keep you company. Nothing too out of the ordinary, so it came as a surprise when you were taking a trip to the city of Fuyuki a sudden pain marked an odd tattoo being imprinted on your hand. The only thing you would say is odd about yourself is your innate desire to KiLLMURDEReNd people. Still it feels as if you're just scratching the surface of your capabilities right now perhaps this was meant to be?

You are not a match for most any servant, the most you can do is fight defensively.

This Shiki has yet to unlock her mystic eyes or get to really know Kokuto, starting her off as the weakest master candidate of all the options she however has potential to grow rapidly depending on who she summons as well as her rolls. Since she's the weakest she'll also get subtle support from a certain someone but make no mistake this person is an enemy. Her list of servants has yet to be determined since I have a few problems I'm unsure about.

A figure watches silently from the shadows, pondering this conundrum. Their guaranteed path to the root was now at risk for something it has no need of, perhaps he too shall participate in this Holy Grail War to protect it.

[] You are Sion Eltnam Atlasia a genius alchemist and one of the best of your generation, it seemed as if nothing would stop your blistering climb to atlas's top; Until it was all ruined by your own decision, your own impatience, struck down by hubris now you struggle to stay yourself, to remain human. Still if your research on the odd tattoo that inscribed itself onto your hand is any clue it's now your best chance at curing your affliction; still servants though, how unfortunate that you didn't have the time to procure a catalyst nor access to your former connections to expedite the process still you'll make do, you must.

You are capable of going up against extremely weak servants but a servant nonetheless.

Sion's choices for servants are threefold stealing a catalyst before the war(The only Master that's available that Would and could do it), getting one that has a connection to her nature (Vlad, Medusa etc.) or Rolling the Gacha (Me pressing Random on the Type-Moon wiki and picking the first servant that appears, Excluding Beasts) she has a few solid options for those that want stability, or you can just roll random whatever your preference.

Something stirs a phenomenon it calculates that it's successor's chances of survival until their next meeting has unexpectedly dropped? Reviewing data, a ritual, how quaint to think it can escape its fate.

[] You are Bazett Fraga McRemitz an enforcer for the Clocktower as well as the magus association's appointed representative for this Holy Grail War. You are prepared for the trials ahead; your abilities are unquestionable and with Cú chulainn by your side you will win this war.

You can go toe to toe with weak to average Servants if properly prepared and maybe take one out with your Noble Phantasm.

Cú Chulainn, The Hound of Ulster is locked in as Bazett's Servant, they're a solid Combo that will get along well, if you don't want your Servant to be dictated by chance choose her.

[] You are the White Princess, True Ancestor Arcueid Brunestud you have recently awakened from your slumber to chase your old enemy Roa Valdamjong the Serpent of Akasha. However while you were in the middle of your hunt, a weird seal that smelled of magic was carved upon your hand. What an unwelcome interruption, what's odd it that it's still there even after tearing your arm off. This stupid seal defies your common sense, since well all your wounds magical or otherwise should heal immediately yet this odd marking stays, how interesting perhaps this marking is connected to Roa somehow?

You are more than a match for most servants, Unless the servant you are fighting has a specialized anti-immortal Noble Phantasm, you are at nearly no risk in this war.

Arcueid doesn't care much for the Grail War and while she won't have the same difficulties other masters will, that isn't entirely a good thing since she won't bother with a catalyst so she's guaranteed to just pull a servant from the Gacha(Aka me pressing random on the Type-Moon wiki until a Hit the first servant other than Beasts, this does give a chance for irregular classes though.)

Now which Grail War has chosen you as a participant?

[] The Fuyuki Grail War located in Fuyuki, Japan the birthplace of the Holy Grail War and it's battleground of choice as it has been for centuries.

-[] This is the Fourth Holy Grail War. (Option unavailable for Bazett Fraga McRemitz)

--[] Your Command seals are red (Normal Grail War)

--[] Your Command seals are blue (Great Grail war, AKA Apocrypha scenario)

-[] This is the Fifth Holy Grail War.

--[] Your command seals are red (Normal Grail War)

--[] Your command seals are Blue (Apocrypha scenario)

[] The Great Holy Grail War, located near the small town of Trifas, Romania the Holy Grail has been moved here by the machinations of the Yggdmillennia family after the events of the third war. (Option unavailable for Shiki Ryougi)

-[] You are considering allying with Yggdmillennia as your command seal is black.

-[] You are allied with the Clock Tower as a member of the red faction. (Bazett Locked in red faction if Trifas is chosen)

-[] Faction? Hah who cares you certainly don't. (Arcueid is locked into this option if Trifas is chosen)

A/N: Something I want to ask if anyone knows, is there anything preventing Eastern/Japanese servants in the Fuyuki Grail war or just Grail Wars in general? I know it might be a thing but I'm not entirely sure since EMIYA and Kojirou(Fake) have been summoned in canon along with Kintoki being considered in Apocrypha, so any insight into this matter would help. This is my First quest So I hope I don't botch this too badly.

You Servant 1 Servant 2 Servant 3 Servant 4 Servant 5 Servant 6

Name: Arcueid Brunestud
Titles: White Princess, True Ancestor Vampire, Legacy of the Crimson Moon, Kin Slayer

Strength: A+++

While Arcueid's base toughness isn't too great unless at night, all damage she takes will almost instantaneously heal no matter how grievous the injury is. Unless an anti-immortality or regeneration effect is used upon her.

Agility: A++
Luck: B+

Gaia's Blessing EX: Arcueid's stats can scale depending on the threat she faces, this can scale for Individual foes, so she'll never be outmatched in a physical fight against a single opponent.

Magic Resistance A++ (B): Any mystery inferior to Arcueids is either negated or reduced in effect, however if this is the first time she is encountering a particular mystery her Magic Resistance lowers to B on the first use.

Luna's Grace A+++: Arcueids Endurance raises three ranks at night, due to the blessings and abilities of her progenitor Crimson Moon Brunestud.

Restriction A: Arcueid must use 50% of her current power to restrict her bloodlust, lowering her base stats, however they can still easily compete with a servants.

Mystic Eyes of Enchantment A++: Mystic eyes held by many vampires, they can achieve high level hypnosis with but a single look into the user's eyes, they make Arcueid's red eyes turn gold when in use.

Marble Phantasm, Millenial Castle Brunestud EX: Can literally change reality to create any naturally occurring effect and summon the Millennium Castle Brunestud, the ancestral home of the True Ancestors. The power of Marble Phantasm is such that even in her extreme weakened state, she was able to use the oxygen in the air to reduce Roa's latest host body to just the ankles. Without her limiter, she can likely materialize something the size of a small village in the mountains. She cannot do so normally in modern towns built up by the work of many people, so she would have to destroy in order to create anything there. It would require more time, so the Church would have enough time to locate her and start a battle with her. It is very hard to directly help humans utilizing the ability, but it is viable with other creatures
Name: Gilgamesh of Uruk
Titles: Archer of Red, King of Uruk, King of Heroes, Owner of All the World's Treasures, The One True King, Keystone of The Gods

Strength: C
Endurance: C
Agility: C
Mana: B
Luck: A
Noble Phantasm: EX

Divinity B(A+): This skill serves to deepen Gilgamesh's mystery, this can either hurt or help Gilgamesh depending on how an enemy's ability interacts with it. Gilgamesh's divinity is lowered due to dislike for gods.

Independent Action A: Allows Gilgamesh to maintain his existence without a master for up to a week if he conserves his Mana, this also allows Gilgamesh to use his Mana more efficiently when compared to servants without this skill.

Magic Resistance E: This Skill cannot negate spells but it does help mitigate the damage Gilgamesh receives from spells, This stat can be heightened if Gilgamesh uses a Noble Phantasm that has high magic resistance.

Charisma A+: At this point this skill is more like a curse than a mere ability, Gilgamesh can naturally make others follow his commands. This skill greatly increases Gilgamesh's ability to lead whether is be groups or armies Gilgamesh will always be well liked.

Collector EX: Gilgamesh is an individual who is said to have possessed all the world's treasures, this skill is a crystallization of that, attracting extremely rare and valuable items into his possession.

Golden Rule A: This skill denotes Gilgamesh's ability to never run out of wealth as vast riches will always surround him, his need for material wealth will always be satisfied.

Rosy Cheeked Adonis C: Gilgamesh's looks are at the very least stunning, this skill serves as a fascination like magic effect for all men and women who see his face, although at this rank, so long as one has the will to resist it they'll remain unaffected.

Gate of Babylon B+~B++: Gives Gilgamesh access to a pocket dimension, his own personal treasury within it are countless items of wealth more numerous than the stars in the sky, within it are mundane currencies of gold and gems to the more exotic items such as hydra meat or powerful Noble Phantasms, He holds a prototype for every noble phantasm made by mortal hands and even many that were not. He hold many treasures some would kill to get their hand on such as Enkidu and EA, however his low Mana stat means he cannot use this ability to it's fullest potential so he is limited to dozens of portals at once instead of hundreds.

Sha Naqba Imuru EX: Literally translating to the Omniscient, Omnipotent Star this is the crystallization of the mentality that Gilgamesh had in life, this Noble Phantasm allows Gilgamesh to discern heavily concealed truths with a single glance, from that of the opponent's True Name and Noble Phantasms to possibly even seeing through a piece of the truth of the demise of human history even to seeing possibilities of parallel worlds akin to the second magic, seeing all possibilities and always picking the correct one this acts as a form of Clairvoyance far beyond the ordinary and even this is but the passive effects from this skill though. When Sha Nagba Imuru is invoked by name, it will work as a form of "instruction" for him to guide others with the most optimal tactics, simultaneously increasing the attack power and defense power of his whole team near his position. Essentially Even in something like a card game, the very minimum requirement to play against him on equal terms would be to draw the precise hand required.
Name: Arjuna Pandava
Titles: Archer of Black, Son of Indra, The Awarded Hero

Strength: A
Endurance: B
Agility: B
Mana: B
Luck: A++
Noble Phantasm: EX

Divinity B: this skill serves to deepen Arjuna's mystery, this can either hurt or help Arjuna depending on how an enemy's ability interacts with it.

Independent Action A: Allows Arjuna to maintain his existence without a master for up to a week if he conserves his Mana, this also allows Arjuna to use his Mana more efficiently when compared to servants without this skill.

Magic Resistance C: This Skill can cancel spells with a chant below two verses. however it Cannot defend against magecraft on the level of High-Thaumaturgy and Greater Rituals.

Clairvoyance C+: This skill allows Arjuna to even hit invisible targets, it also allows him to alter his sense of time if he concentrates.

Clairvoyance(Archer) B+: This skill is awarded to Arjuna for his exceptional eyesight and his incredible accuracy, it also synergizes with his regular clairvoyance.

The Awarded Hero A: Arjuna shall receive whatever he needs most at the moment, he will not lack in anything he needs.

Mana Burst(Flames) A: This skill infuses flames into all of Arjuna's attacks, allowing Arjuna to move in bursts of speed and power while leaving behind flames, that's not all he can also infuse it into his attack such a when this skill is attached to his Noble Phantasm Agni Gandiva that he received from the God of Flames Agni allowing it to act as a Jet-like burst of mana, when infused into his attacks allowing them to pierce Arjuna's enemies faster than a rifle.

Agni Gandiva A: It is a Bow of Flames that essentially cannot be handled by humans (mortals), awarded to Arjuna by the Flame God, Agni. Normally just a regular bow, by activating its True Name, its arrow becomes a missile engulfed in flames. It is not a homing missile, but since Arjuna is an archery genius and possesses the Clairvoyance Skill, its precision is of that of a homing missile anyway.

Pashupata A+: A widespread and powerful Noble Phantasm akin to a meteor shower that does damage based upon each individual target, it is a weapon given by one of the Three Greater Gods of the Hindu religion, Shiva, the one who governs destruction and creation. It is an Anti-"Unit" Noble Phantasm, but that is only because of its nature of "not collectively crushing all humans in its surroundings", but "judging each one individually and delivering 'Moksha' to those who fail." 'Moksha' delivers instant death.
Name: Astolfo
Titles: Paladin of Charlemagne, Rider of Black, Ladies Man, Handsomest man of Charlemagne

Strength: D
Endurance: D
Agility: B
Mana: C
Luck: A+
Noble Phantasm: C

Independent Action B: Allows Astolfo to exist without a Master for up to two days, this also causes Astolfo to not need as much mana as servants without this skill.

Magic Resistance A(D): Astolfo can ignore magical attacks of rank of A and below making him immune to all modern magecraft, however this level of magic resistance isn't inherent to Astolfo himself but because of his Noble Phantasm Casseur De Logistille.

Riding A+: This skill allows Astolfo to use all vehicles and all creatures up to the level of Phantasmal Beasts and Divine Beasts as mounts and use them as skillfully as possible. However, this does not apply to dragons.

Evaporation of Sanity D: This skill causes Astolfo to carelessly chatter about his own team's weaknesses and True Names, it also makes him forgetful about important things, etc. A kind of extreme curse. This Skill also serves as 'instinct'. During battle, Astolfo is able to, to some extent, feel the optimal course.

Monstrous Strength C-: This skill raises Astolfo's strength by one rank but when he uses it the strain also damages him, it functions as a double edged sword.

Cassuer De Logistille C: A noble phantasm in the form of a thick book it grants its owner the ability to ignore magical attacks of A and below however this does not work on Reality Marbles or Marble Phantasms.

Hippogiff B++: Allows Astolfo to summon a hippogriff as his mount, it boasts great speed, and its demolishing attack as it charges is equal to an A-rank physical attack, although that is not the real value of this mythical beast. The true power of the Hippogriff takes advantage of its "impossible existence" nature and amplify it, allowing it to perform short bursts of dimensional shift continually and only for an instant. effectively rendering the mount and its Rider immune to damage and unobservable for a short period of time, this takes a large amount of mana whenever it is used in this fashion though.

La Black Luna C: A large hunting horn that releases sound as a weapon of wide-scale destruction while it isn't too good against strong opponents against many weak ones it is the ultimate weapon. It isn't totally useless against opponents of quality though as it can deafen and disorient them for at least a short time.

Trap of Argalia D: The spear's only function is to cause opponents hit by it to fall to their knees, essentially a weapon that can make even the largest giant fall to their knees with a light tap. The only way to resist this is with luck or to have conceptual resistance that trumps Argalia's
Name: Shuten-Douji
Titles: Assassin of Black, Ruler of Oni, Saṃghāta Hell Berserker, One of Japan's Three Great Monsters, Child of the Dragon God

Strength: A
Endurance: B
Agility: A
Mana: A+
Luck: D
Noble Phantasm: B

Presence Concealment C: A below average presence concealment for an Assassin nonetheless it allows Shuten to hide herself from her enemies until she prepares to attack, making her suitable for spying, however her personality prevents her from using this skill to its fullest potential.

Divinity C: As the child of the Dragon god and possible descendant of many divine entities Shuten possesses moderate divinity by connection, this skill dictates how certain abilities interact with Shuten.

Alchoholic Scent of Fruit A: This is a Skill that allows Shuten's target to be made dead drunk from a sigh, a tone of voice, or even a gaze quite similar to enchantment. In the case of beings that do not have the means for magical defense (common people and animals), their thoughts end up melting in an instant.

Battle Continuation A+: Shuten can withstand grievous wounds easily, allowing her to fight until she is killed or until her whole body is destroyed, even if Shuten is reduced to a mere head she can still survive, the only way to kill her quickly would be to target her head and hope to completely annihilate it in one fell blow.

Oni Kind Demon A: This skill is a combination of the Charisma, Mana Burst, Monstrous Strength and Natural monster skills that Shuten has due to her being an Oni it allows her to lead others easily, move in bursts of strength and speed in exchange for expending a chunk of mana, Increase her strength by one rank for hours at a time without much strain. This skill could be considered the Holy Grail of skills simply because it is an amalgamation of so many useful ones rolled into a single package.

Bone Collector B: An ability inherent to Shuten a extremely specialized and powerful move, it allows her to to extract her opponents bones without spilling a single drop of blood if she uses it without error Bone Collector can bypass all forms of armor and protection to instantly kill nearly all enemies that she faces, unless they are unaffected by such a thing(AKA opponents such as Nrvnqsr Chaos), it could be considered Shuten's personal martial art that directly attacks her targets bones, ignoring most defenses.

Multitude of Colors-Providential Oni Poison B: This poisoned sake that Shuten wields single purpose is to let her pollute her surroundings with its poison at once. By manipulating its concentration, she can bestow every bad status aliment. As for its concentration, it can decompose all living bodies it touches, leaving nothing but a few bones behind. The gourd for the sake, carried in a pouch is a weapon that can turn into a sword, held in the mouth of the gourd.
Name: Siegfried
Titles: Dragon Slayer, The Dragon Blooded Knight, Saber of Black, Selfless Hero

Strength: B+
Endurance: A
Agility: B
Mana: C
Luck: E
Noble Phantasm: A

Magic Resistance _: Siegfried has lost the Magic Resistance inherent to the Saber class container, leaving him vulnerable to all forms of magic; This is due to his Noble Phantasm, Armor of Fafnir.

Riding B: Allows Siegfried to ride most vehicles and animals and handle them with above average skill, even vehicles that did not exist in the time period Siegfried was alive in are no exception. However, he cannot ride the likes of Phantasmal species such as Monstrous Beasts

Disengage A: Siegfried can easily withdraw from disadvantageous combat situations allowing him to recover and to find a more optimal battlefield.

Dragon Slayer A++: This skill significantly increases Siegfried's defense and power against Dragons to an absurd degree, it wouldn't be wrong to call him the ultimate weapon against them.

Golden Rule C-: For Siegfried, due to the cursed Nibelung treasure he acquired promising him a lifetime untroubled by money, he has this Skill, but at the cost of his Luck being Ranked-Down.

Armor of Fafnir B+: Siegfried is immune to all weapons he encountered in his life, even magic that deals physical damage is rendered moot when meeting his skin unless they exceed the rank of B. This isn't all as even attacks that do get through this are reduced in power an attack of A-rank are effectively reduced to E-rank attacks, meaning even qualifying blows directed towards vital points are rendered as minor scratches that can be healed by his Master at a quick rate. In exchange for this prodigious defense Siegfried loses his magic resistance, it might seem like a fair trade but this Noble Phantasm is weakened against attacks effective on Dragons and on his back he has a spot undefended, leaving him vulnerable to the weakest Servant if they manage to strike it, there is nothing he can do to defend it as a curse prevents him from covering that weakness until it is broken.

Balmung A+(EX): A two-handed golden greatsword that changes its nature from Holy to Demonic depending on its wielder, it deals extra damage against Dragons and is extremely effective against armies. By invoking its name Siegfried can fire a semi circular wave of blue destruction aimed at his opponent. This Noble Phantasm is weakened for Siegfried compared to when he was alive giving it a immense rank down, this is due to his draconic Magic Core not carrying over well to his class container drastically slowing its activation and minimizing its destructive potential.

Das Rheingold _: A Noble phantasm that allows Saber to summon the vast treasure he seized from Fafnir, he will not use it willingly as he sees no need for it nor cares for the cursed riches.
Name: Avicebron, Solomon Ibn Gabriel
Titles: Caster of Black, Father of Kabbalah, Herald of GAIA, Pursuer of Eden

Strength: E
Endurance: E
Agility: D
Mana: A+
Luck: B
Noble Phantasm: EX(A+)

Item Creation A+(B+): Avicebron is heavily specialized in creating golems unable to create much else with this skill. It would not be wrong to call him the greatest golem crafter to have lived though, especially now with his enlightenment from GAIA improving his ability to make golems raising his skills to even greater heights. He can now create golems on par physically with strong servants, perhaps surpassing them if they did not possess skills and Noble Phantasms.

Territory Creation A+(B): Caster can create a workshop specialized in helping him craft golems, however this skill has risen multiple ranks by no longer being opposed by GAIA, instead it is now enhanced making it more powerful, varied and efficient, this drastically reduces the time and components required to set up his workshop and improves the strength and range of abilities his golems have.

High-Speed Incantation B+: Caster can near instantaneously cast multiple spells at once, if there is one aspect other than golemancy that Avicebron cannot be surpassed it would be this, he is one of the greatest mortal Casters to have ever lived when it comes to speed.

Numerology B: The magecraft system that Avicebron himself created, this skill functions by combining shortened arias due to Notarikon, multiple commands can be instantly given to multiple golems. This ties into his High-Speed Incantation skill giving him his ludicrous casting speed.

GAIA's Tranquil Fig EX: Originally Tranquil Fig, a crystalization of the legend of where Avicebron was killed and buried under a fig tree over human jealousy, originally this skill did nothing as it was not connected to anything, however now it is connected to the will of the planet itself through Arcueid; this gives many of Caster's abilities great boosts as well as granting him Revelation and Eve.

Revelation(GAIA) A: Caster can "hear the voice of the Earth" and take optimum action; a Skill equivalent to Instinct, a sixth sense regarding battles. However, 'Revelation' accommodates all matters related to the achievement of a goal. Avicebron will recieve guidance from the planet and take the best possible actions in relation to his goal, he will also be aware of all that the Earth knows regarding what it deems important for Caster.

Golem Keter Malkuth A++~EX(A+): Originally a Noble Phantasm meant to only create Caster's unfinished masterpiece Adam, now it can create another far superior golem, Eve. At first Caster was merely satisfied with Adam creating a new world order leading the worthy humans back to Eden, however with his revelation that Adam would always be destroyed by ALAYA as long as humans exist he's committed to an entirely different goal.

To create Adam first he must slowly create the body taking weeks to months of time before he inserts the core. The core can be any being so long as they have extremely powerful magic circuits and a good compatibility with golems. The finished product is an extremely large and powerful golem but that in itself is nothing too special, what separates this golem from the norm is its absurd conceptual strength. Possessing an autonomous Reality Marble that can continually repaint its surroundings into 'Paradise' Just by stepping on the ground, it is endlessly supplied with mana, and at the same time, it encroaches on the surrounding land and turns it into "Eden". Furthermore, it is able to receive the blessing of the Earth, making it so that as long as its feet are on the earth, it cannot be destroyed with any means.

It will continue to move unhindered even if its maker, Caster, perishes. As the span of Eden expands, the giant's size will change and multiply until it finally exceeds a thousand meters, this was it's limit but now with the true support of GAIA its growth has no limit. The body doubles in size in ten minute intervals from the moment it is born. It is said that "a fifteen-meter-sized giant could be easily defeated by even a Servant with average C Rank stats", but as expected, one at the size of a thousand meters would be impossible to kill without a group of first-rate Servants.

???

The core component of this golem is the True Ancestor Altrouge Brunestud.

Personal thoughts: Len has been your constant companion for a while now, you were entrusted with her by her creator in return for them helping you defeat the Dead Apostle Ancestor Einnashe and ever since then she has been your constant companion. Len has the ability to manipulate dreams and memories and as an animal spirit that is several centuries old the level of her mystery isn't too bad either, magi of the current era would consider her a top notch familiar.

Len currently doesn't have a master since as a nature spirit she cannot be under the contract of another nature spirit such as yourself, despite that the two of you share a much closer bond than most magi do with their contracted familiar's.

Bond level: The two of you have a close bond and nearly never fight, making the both of you nearly inseparable, except when Len wants her alone time that is.

Personal thoughts: An Executor who goes by the name of Ciel, she was the former host of Roa until you killed her. Yet it seems she doesn't know how to die when she is killed. Other than her strange form of immortality though she isn't too much of a threat, as her abilities while good for an executor aren't up to par with your own.

Bond level: The both of you don't seem to get along well, still it isn't too surprising since you did kill her after all.

Personal thoughts: A suspicious priest and an all around fishy guy, he knows Ciel and seems to have trained as an executor that might explain why he's competent, still something feels off about him. At least that's what you believed until you knew better he's an evil man out to destroy the world and kill you, a filthy traitor who hides behind a smile.

Bond level: He's a helpful person but still you can't help but feel suspicious of him, simply because you can't know exactly what he thinks of you, what with that annoying mask plastered on his face most of the time. Now though there are few people you hate more in this world than him.

Personal thoughts: The eighteenth incarnation of Roa, she must die!

Bond Level: Unending hatred.

Zhaitan · Jul 5, 2018

The city of Trifas, with a population only around 20,000 individuals, you personally thought it was more of a quaint and peaceful town than a city.

It's just like the last location where you tracked HIM down, that small French village Roa slaughtered to the last, is this a pattern? You note with a grimace.

Still while you can vaguely sense the snake's whereabouts by his stolen power, it's never been more accurate than that, unfortunately. Sometimes you wish it was, so you could just rest again and take a break from the monotonous cycle the Serpent of Akasha imposed upon you.

Nearly all your problems could be laid at the feet of that man. If he is even a man right now, you remember his last incarnation was a woman, of course his gender doesn't matter as all his vessels act the same, are the same.

You feel something lightly brush against your leg, breaking you out of your current train of thought, looking down you spot a small black cat adorned with an equally black bow.

A small smile tugs at your face "Sorry Len, I was brooding too much, huh. How about we both get a cake at one of the nearby shops? Still I'm not sure if they'll let you eat it in that form."

Len's face tilts to the side as if coming to a difficult decision, after what seems an eternity she runs into a small alley on your right. Within a few seconds a small girl with unusual features emerges from the alley, slowly walking towards you with a feline grace.

While Len was taking her sweet time, the wind kicked up blowing your blonde locks all over your face "Len you're walking slowly on purpose aren't you, do you want cake or not?"

With those words Len's sluggish pace picks up quickly, as she wildly looks at the houses nearby trying to find any kind of confectionary shop; As if her cake will run away from her.

Perhaps your teasing was a bit too effective as it's now you who must catch up to her frantic pace, finally the two of you come across a bakery that also serves cakes alongside the usual bread, Len hurriedly tugs you into the shop by your sleeve wanting to have her snack as soon as possible.

"Alright, alright Len you don't have to rush me, we were going to get cake anyway." You can't help but lightly chastise her actions.

Len merely pouts in return "Pfft hehehe your little sister must give you a tough time huh, always begging for sweets." a warm voice interrupts your lighthearted banter with Len.

Looking towards the voice, you see a young woman occupying a wooden counter with a glass display, showing off all sorts of sugary goodness. You could practically see Len drooling at the sight, well if she wasn't so stoic that is.

"How could you tell she was my sister?" You don't see any reason to correct her misunderstanding, Len wasn't your sister by any means, she was more a pet or servant than a sister.

"Well you both have red eyes, I don't see many people with that eye color, so I think it just has to be hereditary, you know?" she gives such an earnest response for such an inane issue, how cute.

You absentmindedly watch Len pull the shopkeeper's attention, her hand wavering over several different cakes. Len refuses to talk much, causing the female shopkeeper no small amount of confusion as all the familiar does is point towards what she wants while giving little shakes of her head if asked if she was sure.

As the girl is occupied by Len's antics, your mind slowly starts to wander towards the subject of siblings.

The only being that could be considered your sister is Altrouge Brunestud and your relationship would be called strained at best if not downright hostile. It was to the point where the two of you could never be near each other without fighting, the both of you simply have never gotten along. It's not as if the two of you inherently dislike each other, but her constant jealousy towards you has always soured your relations. You can't help but wonder if the two of you will ever get along, but somehow you doubt it.

"You want all of those?" Len rapidly nods her head in agreement.

"Oh alright, don't say I didn't warn you! It's a bit too much, but it's not my stomach that will be crying tomorrow." the shopkeepers voice is full of exasperation at this point since she seems unwilling to upset her small customer.

You hadn't been paying much attention to the events before you, lost in your own thoughts as the shopkeeper's honey brown eyes turn from Len's towards your own.

"You shouldn't spoil her too much you know, haah" she gives a tired sigh "Anyways the cost of the seven cakes is…" she trails off as your eyes flicker to a golden hue.

"Thanks for shopping with us." the shopkeeper responds, waving the two of you off with a vacant smile.

You didn't much like using your mystic eyes, still you've used them plenty of times in the past, and you'll use them in the future as well since they're quite useful in this modern age; and well, you've never bothered with mortal money.

It seems the wind has calmed down after you left the shop, so Len decides to eat her cakes outside on a bench, you simply watch her happily stuffing her cheeks full with her newly acquired cakes, she looks more like a cute hamster right now than a cat.

As you wait for Len to finish her snacks you can't help but marvel at how calm this city is, the grass is green, doves and other birds frolicking joyously in the sky as if everything is perfectly peaceful.

Oh, how wrong they are, this peace is an illusion waiting to be shattered. Roa has already awakened and his methods always lead to one thing, bloody mayhem consuming everything. Where dead apostles run rampant on the streets until everything is twisted into a mockery of what it once was.

Roa will do this all to feed his own desires, just as he tricked and used you to fulfill his so long ago. That's why you must stop him, why you hunt him down to the ends of the earth. Yet you can't help but feel your actions are almost meaningless, this is his eighteenth incarnation and each time you end his life he comes back using another person as his vessel; Sometimes you can't help but feel this is all you will do until the end of time, never able to truly end him once and for all to reclaim the power he stole from you.

"Kghh" you grunt as a sudden pain brings you out of your depressing thoughts, your left hand the source of a burning pain. Quickly looking at it you see some sort of magical tattoo engraving itself unto your hand.

You didn't expect anything to happen right now since it was in the middle of the day, damn, damn, DAMN IT!

You let your guard down. Roa has always acted during the night until he's grown enough to feel confident, his presence didn't feel strong enough for this kind of action! No, you can't be fooled that easily, perhaps this isn't Roa's doing, but if that was the case then whose?

Moreover how did this get past your magic resistance? Even if you haven't encountered this type of Magecraft before, something which you doubted, your initial passive resistance should still be more than up for the task of countering modern mysteries.

Len slowly looks towards you, wondering what's happening, she gives you a silent question with a tilt of her head "Just give me a moment, alright Len?" That's all the confirmation she needs to go back to her sweets.

Still even if this magical seal isn't connected to Roa that doesn't mean it's not a hindrance, best just get rid of it then.

With a wet squelch you easily rip off your left hand at the shoulder crushing it with your right.

"AAHHH What the hell are you doing, you fucking crazy bitch!" you turn to meet some random nobody's eyes with a golden glare.

Right, you forgot that you were in a public place in the heat of the moment. Still it's nothing your eyes can't fix.

The man who yelled at you before now looks at your completely whole left arm with dead eyes constantly repeating "Everything is normal..." while slowly meandering away in a daze.

Now with that distraction out of the way you look back at your completely rejuvenated left arm, looking no worse for wear compared to before you destroyed it just a few moments ago, just as expected.

What was not expected and entirely unwelcome was that magical seal was somehow still on your left hand and it was continuing to inscribe itself. This was no longer something that you could easily dismiss, and while you could tell the marking was magical you didn't know what it did which made it all the more concerning.

Your mind rapidly whirled with possibilities, but you quickly recognized worrying about it wasn't going to do anything. So, you thought of your options to figure out this problem. While it was certainly concerning you couldn't help but feel excited, this was something new! Something different from the usual monotonous cycle of slumbering in your castle and killing Roa.

Len meanwhile merely looked to you with a questioning gaze, as if you lost it… again.

Now how are you going to figure out what this weird magical Tattoo does?

[] Simple, you'll just get the nearest magus you can find and work them over until they spill what it does.

[] Some random two-bit magus probably won't know what such an intricate work is, you'll send Len to get some advice from Uncle Zel, she'll be fine, Probably…

[] What it is doesn't matter in the slightest you need to find Roa and eliminate him as quickly as possible, this stupid marking is probably just a distraction of his, a red herring to buy him more time.

Pick a Command seal color.

[] Your Command Seal is Black.(Must pick one of the two)

[] Your Command Seal is Red.(Must pick one of the two)

A/N: So I cranked out this chapter pretty fast so I hope I didn't make too many mistakes. Also the reason why I emphasized Len is that she'll be one of Arcueid's primary companions at least for now considering she's the only one she knows at the moment and also to drive home the point that Arcueid does not live in a vacuum and quite a few threats are going to follow her
Also one thing I noticed is that no one caught the invis text in the first chapter lololol.

So I believe anyone who is knowledgeable about the Type-Moon franchise knows that there is a force that prevents threats to all of humanity coming to fruition, I'm of course talking about Alaya and the Counter force. For those who don't know the Counter Force is a countermeasure against those whose abilities or actions will threaten humanity as a whole which includes becoming a being capable of doing so I.E. Learning a True Magic. Now if Alaya senses the threat is dire enough and nothing else will work she will send Counter Guardians to solve it, however this is THE last resort, while the primary method is the use of subtle suggestions to individuals involved with the threat.

Say if a scientist will create a world ending bio-plague, the Counter force will sense that threat and have the man's employers fire him, if that doesn't work it will ruin his connections if that doesn't work the counter force will empower a mugger to kill him and if even that doesn't work then the Counter Force will send a Guardian to directly handle the issue.

The reason I bring this up can be summed up in one name, Sieg a homunculus that was suddenly and inexplicably different, he was the crucial homunculus for Caster's plans to forge the Golem Adam which is considered a threat to humanity, this starting to sound familiar? It doesn't even stop there, Sieg is constantly set up in situations that have no right to actually happen, first Siegfried *cough*Sumanai*cough* gave Sieg his heart, but it's explained away in that it's simply Siegfried's nature to help. It doesn't stop there however he suddenly gains Berserker of Black's NP Blasted Tree for reasons unknown to me, to help pull off his victory against Karna.

Karna was the last defender of Shiroe Kotomine a man that nearly succeeded in pulling off his wish if it wasn't for Sieg and here's the crux of the issue, his wish threatened the whole of humanity as we know it, thus there is a high possibility that Sieg was empowered and influenced by the Counter Force.

Now the reason I bring my speculation up is for a simple reason, with Arcueid on the field changing the story entirely there might be no reason for the Counter Force to empower and influence Caster's chosen homunculus. Still I want to know other's thoughts on this, am I making mountains out of molehills or should I just derail Apocrypha's canon entirely?

BoundaryPhantasm said:
Your wording implies that Arcueid can scale according to how many foes she fighting with at the same time. She scale according to one opponent per time. If she fighting three foes at the same time, her states will be tripple... That way too op...

Thanks gonna fix that.

No, hunting down a magus would just be a waste of time and getting advice from Zelretch would take too long, you quickly dismiss those options with a shake of your head.

Looking down at your left hand you can't help but notice that the red marking looks disturbingly like a full moon, a Crimson full moon...

No, you won't be intimidated by this it's probably Roa just trying to trick you with some mind game to buy himself more time, even if this marking was detrimental you were confident your magic resistance would protect you from the worst of the effects and your resistance towards the marking would only grow with time if it wasn't already up to the task.

Whether this Red moon marking does something or not it will avail Roa nothing in the end, you will kill his eighteenth incarnation just like all the others.

Your surroundings show the afterglow of the setting sun, it was almost time to hunt you can't help but grin in anticipation, soon roa, soon.

"Len I'm going to hunt, stay out of trouble okay? I don't want you to get hurt." Len looks towards you and gives a nod of assent with a serious look on her face, looking quite comical with her cheeks still stuffed with cake.

With that out of they way you start your search, leaving Len to do whatever it is Len does when she's alone, you personally have no clue.
Search roll 84

The sun had already set when you finally found something, aside from the usual dead apostles starting to leave whatever hole they hid in, while this was Roa's work no doubt, they don't give you much information other than confirm that he's here; sort of like a grotesque calling card you muse to yourself.

What's odd is that there's a lot less than there should be, you could only find one or two every hour. The last time Roa had a similar amount of time to build up he made hundreds of them, so something was amiss. Perhaps it was because he had focused on creating the mark on your hand and thus had less time to create the usual amount of dead apostles? That was your best guess for this weird phenomenon.

You weren't having much luck until you spotted her, a small girl that couldn't be older than sixteen her fine features twisted into an inhuman parody of what she once was. Nothing too out of the ordinary, but her scent was what caught your attention, she was recently sired, couldn't be older than a day. Yet the only person's scent other than her own and her undead comrades, was that of a young human girl.

Quickly disposing of the living dead, you couldn't help but smirk at your breakthrough, looks like roa was a young girl, again. You would think he was forming a fetish for it, if you didn't know all he cared about was the ability and status of his hosts.

Giddy with success you continue searching as the night was still young, still the number of dead apostles in this town continues to be underwhelming as it takes you hours to find a group of three vampires gathered around a corpse.

They might be the last since this was the final location in around a mile that smelled of human blood, quite perplexing but not enough to give you pause. What was enough were three projectiles beheading the dead apostle's simultaneously and a fourth for the corpse the vampires had been feeding from. Black keys, you quickly recognize the projectiles as the signature weapon of the Church's executors.

Executors, agents of the Holy Church who's primary job description was to hunt down rogue dead apostles. Personally you didn't care too much about them unless they got in your way, like what just happened right now.

You look towards the source of the Keys with a frown, you didn't like people interfering with your business. Your expression tightens when you see their face, HIS face! It even the same blue hair and eyes, that face was HIS!

Your body coils in preparation for the kill, then you stop. That was the face of his last host, the host you killed decades ago with an unchanged face.

Your head is starting to hurt with everything starting to make less and less sense. This is by far the most confusing day you've had in centuries what with the strange magical tattoo, oh and then the surprising dearth of dead apostle's and now the cherry atop the cake is an executor that looks just like Roa did years ago, near the same location where Roa should be.

You will not stand and be made a fool of, you want answers!

Before the executor can respond your right hand is already wrapped around her neck, lifting her off the the roof she was perched on.

"Listen carefully executor, if that's what you really are. I want you to tell me why you are here and why you look like Roa if you don't, well you won't like the consequences." You voice is like ice, you will brook no dissent.

"ahh mmkghh" she croaks back, oh your hand was a bit to tight on her neck, it was hard to find just the right amount of strength to use on humans when their abilities can vary so wildly.

"Just kill me I won't tell you anything." Well that was unexpected even the most hardened of individuals tend to spill when you threaten their lives, you can see she's not bluffing her features were determined, her heart was calm and steady. You knew you wouldn't get anything out of this girl.

"So be it." You snap her neck like a twig, her head messily falling off her shoulder's in a spray of gore. Still something didn't sit right with you, that was either the bravest human you've ever met or something else was going on. You could tell from her mannerisms that she wasn't an emotionless tool or a diehard fanatic as those were the types that could spit in the face of death so easily, yet where was this executor's lack of fear coming from?

You stare at the corpse for what seemed to be minutes pondering such a strange occurrence when you hear it, a heartbeat. So that's how it is huh? She was so confident because she knew she wasn't going to die even if she was killed, you were used to this but certainly not from a human.

You can see it now her head somehow attached back to her neck again, you can see her eyes starting to flutter in awareness, and as quick as her resurrection was. You were quicker, grabbing her by the neck once more.

"So you thought you could pull one over me huh? I admit I was almost fooled, if today wasn't so strange or If perhaps I didn't nearly wipe out all the undead in this town I would've left your cooling corpse where it was." you gloat with a casual tone. "Still I think I found an answer to one of my questions, the reason you look like Roa's last incarnation is simply because you were Roa's last host. This is a first for me, I mean this is the first time I've seen one of his host's up and walking about after I killed it. Still, I can't feel his presence from you so that means he's no longer within you."

The girl seems to be wide awake now, must be the pain from your nails biting into her neck.

"Okay you've got your answers, great detective, so let me go." That, that was true, you start considering it for a moment. She was probably here for revenge against Roa, with your questions answered by yourself there's no need to bother with her and you've already killed her for slighting you, your left hand rises to stroke your chin.

The executor's eyes comically widen when she sees your hand or more accurately the Red moon engraved on your hand, how interesting perhaps she has Roa's memories too. That might mean she knows what this red seal on your hand is, how convenient.

"Oh, alright I might let you go but only after you tell me what this moon shaped marking is, you know what it is don't you, don't bother lying to me I'll know." She purses her lips before steeling herself rattling away a similar response to last time. " I'm not scared of you White Princess, go ahead and kill me again it's not going to get you anywhere."

You simply smile back, "Oh such a brave little girl who doesn't fear death, but that doesn't mean you can't feel fear. How about this, you tell me what this little red marking is, or I put you in chains and lock you up in my castle for the rest of your immortal life" your tone is light, teasing but contrary to it, you're quite serious and the executor knows that too judging by her rapid heartbeat and the smell of fear.

"Fine! And my name isn't girl it's Ciel! Haah It's not like in matters to me, listen well because I'll only say it once that marking is a command seal, a mark that designates you as a master." You let her continue, so far this is quite interesting "A master is a participant of the Holy Grail War, which is where you summon a heroic spirit as a familiar to fight for you for a chance to win the prize of the winner's wishes being granted."

Finally, some answers "And how do you know this little executor?" she glares at you angrily before responding "It's because the church have been appointed as mediators of this event to prevent it from getting out of hand."

Your smile starts resembling a cat who just caught the canary "Is that why you're here, as a mediator for this so-called war? And here I was thinking we were comrades of revenge against Roa." Your voice takes an obviously exaggerated sad tone.

"Ye kghhh AHHH" she screams as your hand tightens in response to her lie "Kghh, No the appointed mediator is priest of the church by the name of Shirou Kotomine. That's all I know about it I swear" that was the truth it seems; her voice has a pleasurably defeated edge to it.

Still what to do, what to do; To be honest you're quite unsure, at first the wish didn't sound too tempting until you thought that maybe you could wish for roa to be unable to incarnate anymore, thus making his eighteenth incarnation his final one. Now wasn't the thought of that amazing, you couldn't help but widen your already comical grin at this fantasy.

Still Ciel, doesn't seem to know more such as how to summon a servant, you'd need to ask this Shiroe Kotomine man for more information. Yet doing such a thing might distract your search for Roa, hmmm decisions, decisions.

Now what will you do?

[] You will make Ciel guide you to this priest Shiroe Kotomine as you are interested in this wish, If only for the chance to rid yourself of Roa once and for all.

[] The wish is probably just a false promise, something that will only waste your time better used searching for Roa. Leave Ciel like you promised but not before you snap her neck again, for her impudence; besides lugging her around with you will be a hassle.

A/N: Heeer'es Ciel, Arcueid rolled pretty high on her search roll so she's getting stuff done, on the other hand if you rolled lower you might've gotten nothing at all or an encounter with a certain vampire who's name is very hard to pronounce.
By the way your command seal looks like a red moon, Arcueid should've made a connection to it with Crimson Moon in in the last chapter, but since it wasn't decided whether it was red or not, I couldn't really write that dialogue in there

Zhaitan · Jul 7, 2018

You were tired, so damn tired of this cycle that any kind of hope to finish him off once and for all couldn't be ignored, especially if it could be done by your own hand.

The wish was simply too tempting to ignore even for a True Ancestor such as yourself, it seems that even nature spirits aren't immune to desire, but then again you wouldn't be in this position in the first place if that was the case. Looking towards the red moon on your hand your thoughts turned towards Crimson Moon, laughter starts echoing in your head before you shake it off, thinking of him would get you nowhere.

"Okay Ciel, take me to the Kotomine guy and I'll let you go and this will all be water under the bridge, what do you say?" you give a warm and genuine smile to the executor you were nearly choking.

"It's not like I have much of a choice, do I?" she gives a defeated sigh "I'm not entirely sure where he is but I have a good guess, but could you let me go?"

You simply shake your head in reply "I can't have you running away before I get what I want, now can I?"

She looks at you incredulously "Then how am I supposed to show you where he's at!" her yelling was hurting your ears, so you tighten your grip on her neck again.

"You have arms, don't you? Well use them, point me to where you think he's at Ciel" She looks at you strangely before sighing again, she does that a lot doesn't she.

It seems as if she's getting used to your antics then because she merely points instead of whining again, good.

Event roll (98+40=138 Crit!)

You're quickly surprised how easy it was to find this priest, you probably could've done it yourself since he was currently in a church as if there was any other place a priest would be.

"Well I was worried when I heard someone enter the church unannounced but for it to be Ciel and someone as esteemed as you White princess, tell me what this humble priest can do for you?" It seems the priest was quite sharp as you were sure you didn't make much noise, he's good but you won't show you're impressed.

"Oh, you two know each other? I personally thought little Ciel here was a total loner." His expression doesn't change from that placid pleasant smile even as you squeeze his friend's neck "Indeed I trained alongside her and my brother Kirei to become executors, one can learn a lot about an individual they fight and train alongside; although the same could not be said about my brother unfortunately, but I digress what business brings you here?" Well at least that explains why he's so competent.

Your smile turns upside down, something about this priest seemed off he was too calm, too confident. Did he also possess immortality to be so brave in the face of something much greater than himself, you'll reiterate this day was so confusing.

"I came here because Ciel kindly informed me that you might be able to help with a slight problem I have, you see I got this little thing right here earlier today" The pale moonlight shines through the church's windows onto the red moon upon your left hand.

"That's! It can't be!" well it seems the priest is capable of showing something else other than that infuriatingly serene smile, surprise and disbelief is clearly written upon his face as if he doesn't want to believe what's in front of him. Yet his outburst doesn't last long, and his calm mask is swiftly back in place, as if his reaction had never happened in the first place.

"Forgive me, it's just that took me by complete surprise I hope I didn't offend you." He doesn't deny what you saw but you had a feeling that it was more than just surprise "Regardless congratulations Arcueid Brunestud White Princess of the True Ancestors, I welcome you and recognize you as a participant of the Holy Grail War and a master of the Red Faction for this Holy Grail War!"

He pauses to gauge your reaction, but you simply wave your hand, as a signal for him to continue "The Red Faction is a faction backed by the Clock Tower, one that I mediate as a representative of the Church, we as members of the Red Faction must defeat the defilers of this ritual the Black Faction headed by the traitorous Yggdamellenia family. Once we defeat the Black Faction, the Grail will grant the winning faction's wishes."

This Priest seems gung-ho on beating up this so called Black Faction, but you don't sense any deceit from him. It seems to be the reason he was sent here, so you just shrugged if off as the guy being really devoted to his job.

"Right that helps and all but what I want to know is how I can summon a servant, so I can participate in the first place." You cut to the chase, enough of this weird priest's flowery speeches you want to get to the stuff that matters.

"Ahh, yes a servant of course, just give me a moment and I'll get the supplies to set up the ritual circle for you to use." He quickly leaves as calmly as ever, you had to hand it to that guy, he doesn't waste time getting stuff done.

"Ugh can you let me go now? I already did what you asked so do you even need me anymore?" Oh, you forgot you still had Ciel in your grasp since you were caught up in the oddities of that priest. Well you were done with her so why not? You release her without warning but contrary to your expectations she lands on her feet with a surprising amount of grace.

"I assume you don't have a catalyst, do you miss Arcueid?" The Kotomine's voice takes your attention away from Ciel, she wasn't that important anyways.

"A catalyst, What's that?" The priest's golden eyes meet yours for a fraction of a second before his gaze flicks back to the red magic circle he was drawing, still he responded to your question "A catalyst can aid a master by allowing them to summon a specific servant connected to the catalyst instead of relying on luck for who you summon. Unfortunately, I do not possess any catalysts for you to use miss Arcueid, so whatever servant you summon will be quite random, unless you want to search for one?"

"I'll pass, I don't have the time to spend searching on a wild goose chase for stuff I have no clue about, besides I don't really need some special servant, any servant is fine with me." You can tell your response was expected since the priest's movements don't slow in the least.

The constant noise of scratching was all that could be heard for a good few minutes before you decided to fill up the silence "So the whole faction business that means there are multiple masters on 'our' side, so when do I meet them?"

This question seems to startle Shirou considering this was the first time he looked up from his runic circle before once more giving you that placid smile "Yes, do you want to meet them?"

"Pfft no, why would I want to meet some boring magi, still I was wondering will the grail grant the whole faction's wishes or only a few in the faction?" Kotomine's previously tense face relaxes as he gives you a relieved smile, why was he so relieved, did he think you were some kind of brute looking to cause trouble with the other masters?

"Well I can't say for sure since this is the first time the Holy Grail War has had factions involved as this wasn't how it was intended by the original creators of the ritual. It is only through Yggdamellenia's meddling that this event has occurred so for me who's unrelated to Yggdamellenia all I can say is that the possibility for everyone's wishes to come true is there." Yet again all that greeted your face was that serene smile, it was starting to annoy you.

You left Kotomine be after that if only not to suffer that priest's irritating mannerisms longer than you had to.

"I'm finished with the circle, you may proceed with the ritual." Besides the priest is an intricate circle that reeked of magic, you personally couldn't make heads or tails of what squiggle meant what let alone draw the blasted thing. Well it was a good thing you had someone else do it for you then.

Shirou Kotomine waited for you expectantly but you just stood in place with your arms crossed, you had no clue what it meant let alone how to make it work. He seemed confused for a moment until realization dawns on his face. "Ah, my apologies to initiate the ritual you must first stand inside the circle and recite the aria that correlates with the ritual."

"It's pretty obvious princess here doesn't know a thing about how to use magecraft, well not like I'm all that different, if for different reasons." Ciel mutters the last half from the pews, she probably didn't intend for it to be heard, but you could hear it easily enough. You ignore her though, Ciel is akin to a fly, annoying but ultimately pointless.

You stand in the Ritual circle waiting for the priest's aria "Now repeat after me Let silver and steel be the essence…" You mindlessly drone on what he says hoping against hope that this torturous boredom ends soon.

The priest finishes his aria and as you finish repeating what he was saying wind starts picking up from nowhere blowing your hair and clothes wildly around. A sudden glow emerges in front of you, you couldn't quite place the color but that doesn't matter as it quickly recedes showing…

Who do you see?

[] A cherubic boy with features similar to your own.

[] A blindfolded woman who seems to have her hair formed into what appear to be snakes.

[] A young girl with horns atop her head, wait where were her clothes!

[] A woman with white hair and a heart shaped lance made of what seemed to be amethyst.

[] An albino girl with a stoic expression wielding a sword of what seemed to be a rainbow?

[] A green haired man adorned in silver armor, with a confident smirk on his face.

A/N: Cranked this out kind of fast but god am I tired, I'm heading straight to bed after this. Anyways rolled well for the chapter so I'm including a lot of servants, but we didn't roll a perfect 100 so I'm not giving you guys the option of all the classes. I did however roll one irregular class so there's that.

A dark figure methodically walked the streets in the middle of the night, when suddenly a crow descended from above upon their arm merging with it; if the average citizen of Trifas observed this they would be scared out of their minds but there was no one, the streets were ominously silent.

"Hmmm, so the White Princess eludes me for tonight, no matter there is always the next." The deep voice of the figure revealed the figure to be a male, but he was no man at least not anymore.

He used to be a human alchemist of one of three branches of the magus association, The Sea of Estray which prioritized mysteries left over from the Age of the God's, it was his research during that time that allowed him to ascend to his current state, yet that no longer mattered. He cast his human name away centuries ago, now all that was left was the amalgamation of beasts that was Nrvnqsr Chaos, a name bestowed upon him by the church.

He was entrusted with a mission by the white wing lord, Trvhm Ortenrosse the Seventeenth of the twenty-seven, True ancestor hunting, or more specifically to hunt down the White Princess, Arcueid. He personally couldn't refuse such a request nor was he inclined to since the prospect of hunting what was considered a being far above dead apostle's, the progenitor of their race True ancestors, the mere thought of it sent shivers of excitement down his spine.

There was no fear or hesitation in his demeanor, only confidence and the subtle thrill of the hunt. Chaos was confident, he knew all of Arcueid's capabilities and to put it simply he was one of the worst matchups that she could face among the Twenty-seven Dead Apostle Ancestors. She was incapable of killing him, of hurting him, the opposite wasn't true for her, he mused.

Slowly all manner of animals flocked towards the beast in the shape of a man, until an entire bestiary's worth of them congregated around the man before dissolving into Nrvnqsr, retreating into the dark, away from the rising sun, Chaos pondered the situation. The White Princess thought she was the hunter, but in reality, she was the hunted, she merely hadn't realized it yet.

"Hunting Roa though, how pointless he'll simply revive again even if you do kill him." Chaos' deep voice echoed throughout the alley "Hmhmhahaha Well perhaps I should see my old teacher and colleague once more, after all I have to thank him for gifting me my trump card against the True Ancestor."

The figure paused after a moment "Will you still be the same Roa, or are we also similar in that regard? Slowly losing who we once were to our forms of immortality." He silently questioned himself, as he faded into the shadows.

Pokly said:
Yes which one ? Ko!Gil can use his EX NP or the one that he cannot use GoB ?

Fate/Grand Order's the only one with a stat sheet, so essentially both Ko-gil has weaker stats than Gil and can't pull out his better weapons easily, but otherwise he has nearly everything adult Gil has except for EA, but he gets Sha nagba in return.

Anyways wrote this while I waited for the votes to be locked, and since there haven't been any new votes in awhile I'm locking the votes. Ko-Gil has won, Gonna start on the next chapter.

Servants, great heroes of humanity whose deeds have written them into history, legends in the flesh and one such legend now stands before you. Or at least that what they're supposed to be, but you can't help but feel that was an utter lie when all that greets you is a young boy; who oddly enough looks quite like you, though he couldn't be older than ten. Was this your mighty and powerful servant that will win the war, yeah right, well… you didn't need a strong servant, anyways right?

"I am servant archer, I ask of you are you my master, pretty lady?" directing a refreshing smile your way, forget being a hero he was just a cheeky brat. Still something about him made your chest flutter, strange.

"I am." You respond, merely showing the boy the command seals on your left hand.

"Then our contract is complete, I hope we have lots of fun together!" You look back and forth between your newly minted servant and the fishy priest.

"That's it? I thought it was going to take longer, so how do I claim that wish after we beat Yggdamellenia Kotomine?" Shirou glances your way as he clears his throat "A more accurate description would be that when you defeat the opposing faction's servants, your servant can reach the grail to have your wish granted."

"Wait I need to keep the kid alive in the war! How is that supposed to work, I mean look at him, does he look like a strong fighter to you?" Kotomine looks at your servant who was currently poking at the squiggles on the floor.

"Hey, hey what do these do?" the young boy exclaims excitedly. Shirou quickly shifts his eyes away his smile wavering, he's trying not to laugh, you note with a frown.

"Do you see what I mean? Can't I just send him away, I'm not good at babysitting you know!" Your response was heated, looking after an immature brat was not going to help any of your goals,

"Hey, that's rude master, I might not be as strong as when I'm older but I'm still a good servant, trust me!" he whined back, your deadpan stare is all that meets his heartfelt words, yeah, you're not buying that. While he may believe it, kids always think they can be strong heroes, like what was it again, Power Rangers? It still doesn't mean they are.

"Well miss Arcueid it is said that the servant that answers the summoner's call without a catalyst are the most compatible with each other, in other words young Archer here has a personality that is quite well, uhm complementary with your own, I'm sure the two of you will be a great match." Kotomine responded, what was that even supposed to mean?

"So, what you're saying is that the, the great and powerful, White Princess' personality out of all the heroes in history most closely matches this kid's?! Pftt oh I'm sure they have a ton of similarities, HAHAHAHAH oh my god I can't breathe." Ciel was still here and you really wanted to punch her face in, but between proving her right and not actually doing anything, you restrain that urge, even though her face is very, VERY, punchable; You're starting to hate this day.

"That's not very nice miss, I'm sure my master has plenty of mature points. I bet she's a nice person and I'll have you know I'm much more mature than my age suggests, in fact I'm far more mature like this than when I'm older." He blusters proudly, Archer you weren't helping, like at all. "you're a good person right master?" The look in his eyes could be called sickeningly sweet.

Ciel's laughter redoubled "Yo,You're Killi, killing me here sta, stahp." She gasps between breathes.

Archer merely tilts his head "But I was being honest." The laughter only intensifies from the pews.

You merely palm your face your mood was beginning to grow sour, you felt like storming out of the church, but you can't just yet, just a little more Arcueid endure just a little longer and Roa will be at your feet. Breathing in deeply to help calm yourself trying to ignore Ciel's mockery, only to see the priest stifle a snort as well, alright that's it you were leaving, you already got everything you needed anyways, yeah that's why you were leaving not for any other reason at all. You swiftly exit the church in a huff, fast but not supernaturally so.

"Ah, master wait for me!" oh great, the embarrassment is following you, but you can't really send him away you need him for the grail after all, you feel a desire to beat your head against one of the nearby houses, but that would only embarrass you further.

Once you're a few minutes away from the church, you sit down on a bench resting your head against your palms, today somehow felt like a disaster even though you accomplished so much.

You suddenly hear metal piercing concrete along with weird squawk, you quickly get into a stance prepared for a fight. When all that greets your sight is archer standing over a dead dove, with golden a weapon perforating it. Great, so in addition to your servant being utterly useless and embarrassing he also likes killing animals for no reason. Today was simply not your day, was it?

"Master now that we're finally alone with that pesky familiar gone, we should start making our plans for the war." Archer's previously childish tone seems like a lie considering how serious he appears now, still you're not drinking that Kool-Aid. You see a flash of golden light signifying a bounded field of some sort being established around you, the kid has some skill with magic it seemed, but any old magus could do something like that.

"Right." You merely meet his gaze with dead eyes.

"You don't seem to believe me huh? I'll admit the way I was acting wasn't very reassuring, but It was a necessary distraction, you need to listen carefully master, that priest we were with is a dangerous enemy." Yeah you know the priest was suspicious, but your servant barely even talked to the man, looks like you landed a loony.

"Still don't believe me, do you? I guess I'll have to prove it, you are Arcueid Brunestud, True ancestor vampire and inheritor of the moon." Yeah, yeah keep talking kid you probably got that from the grail "you are currently chasing after an enemy who stole your power and they're currently in the form of a young girl." Wait what, that shouldn't be possible how could he know that, was this mind reading, you've heard about that.

"Haah, it seems I really botched my first impression, my name is Gilgamesh, please just look at my parameters." Well now wasn't this interesting, it was worth a shot, but how are you supposed to do that? Your confusion must've shown on your face because he quickly continued "Just think about my name and that you want to know more about me."

Doing as he says you're surprised when suddenly information about your servant appears in your mind it was surprising as well as a novel experience for you, so you read. Pretty strong for his age, a demigod, very charismatic, wealth and rare items follow him, it was nothing too great but not as bad as you feared. It wasn't until you started to read his noble phantasms that your opinion started to really change.

And it completely changed when you saw it, his primary Noble Phantasm, Gate of Babylon was a nearly unlimited treasury of powerful noble phantasms from the Age of gods, what's more is that you could use them yourself, as they were permanent for as long as Gilgamesh wanted. Perhaps you didn't even need the grail to kill Roa once and for all, if Gilgamesh truly possessed a nearly an unlimited number of powerful relics of the past including those from the age of gods, there must certainly be one inside that could allow you to end Roa.

You couldn't help but look at Gilgamesh in a new light, your heart was quivering in excitement even if this little guy wasn't too strong himself he could be the answer you were searching for so desperately.

"Master your squeezing me too tightly." Gilgamesh groaned from between your arms, before knew it it you were hugging him, how embarrassing, you can't help but blush, you lighten your hold, but you don't let him go hanging onto him like a lifeline.

"Gilgamesh does your treasury include anything that can destroy or trap souls?" you question him seriously; your mood having risen from rock bottom to the highest it's been in centuries if not ever.

"It does master, I actually have quite a few if you want to use them." He replies lightly, he has them! You feel your shoulders shake in barely restrained emotion as you tighten your hold. To think the answer to all your problems would be solved like this so easily, you didn't even have to win that stupid war.

"Master, I, I'm dying…" Oops, you let him go as he falls bonelessly to the ground, it seems you got a bit too excited.

It seems his C rank endurance wasn't just for show as he slowly gathered himself and seemed no worse for wear even after experiencing a bear hug that should kill any mortal man.

"So, master have you finished reading all my abilities yet" Gilgamesh asks in a curious tone. You hadn't, too caught up in the possibilities of Gilgamesh's first noble phantasm so you read the last one Sha Nagba Imuru.

"Sha Naqba Imuru" Is your simple reply, when you finish reading, Gilgamesh merely nods in response before repeating "Sha Naqba Imuru"

You take back everything bad you thought about your servant before, he was completely amazing! Servants were amazing, but if a child was this incredible what did that say about other heroic spirits, that thought actually worries you a little.

"So that's how you knew, what did it tell you about the priest what makes him so dangerous?" You didn't bother asking him why he simply didn't tell you he had such an ability in the first place, you wouldn't have believed him.

"He was planning to use you to get rid of his enemies and then eliminate us afterwards if we were still alive, he was never planning on allowing you to get your wish, although you don't need it, anymore do you? Anyways before you ask how he could accomplish that, he has nearly all the servants of the red faction under his command by controlling their masters oh and he's also a ruler servant from the previous war." The small boy reveals casually as can be, like he wasn't giving out disturbing revelations one after the other.

"That damn bastard! Thinks he can use me, does he? Well he'll be in for a world of pain, when I'm through with him he'll be begging me for sweet release!" you were beyond angry, apoplectic was more accurate the only one who has ever had the gall to do such a thing before was Roa, come to think of it he also used to be a priest. You've decided you'll never trust priests ever again, they were all frauds, holy and pious men your ass, your going to show that con a piece of your mind right now! Storming towards the church, your stopped by Archer's voice cutting through your murderous fugue.

"Now isn't the time for that master, while you're strong he has a strong servant that seems to be a caster by his side he could easily get away from danger with them nearby, if we fail we'll simply be hunted down by both factions if we're unlucky" Gilgamesh gives you sound advice in a soothing voice, it seems as if he's trying to get you to calm down. The truly weird thing is that it was working, perhaps it was his charisma skill?

You give him a frown mulling his words in your head before you reluctantly see the wisdom in them, besides you don't really care about the Holy Grail War anymore, you'll just get rid of Kotomine once you finish ridding yourself of Roa once and for all.

"What would you do then Archer? I'll admit I'm not in a good head space right now, too much has simply happened today for me to think straight" you admit with a grimace, Gilgamesh merely gives a reassuring smile back to you.

"What I would do doesn't apply here master, but what I think you should do is simply accomplish what you came here for in the first place, that's what you truly want to do isn't it? Besides with my help, you can finally recover what he stole from you making your ability to fight against the servants all the better. At least that's what I would say if I didn't glance at that priest's desire, master if that man obtains the grail He'll destroy the world as we know it, the entire world will be wiped out; we can't afford to ignore that madman." He pauses at yet another disturbing tidbit before he takes a deep breathe to continue "So, What I suggest is threefold, we either try to find this Roa and end him as soon as possible to increase your power, or we try to ambush Shirou's servants to reduce their number and finally we attack the black faction's masters and take their servants for our own"

You consider what he said, while you want to pick this first option, you could tell Archer was entirely serious about world ending consequences, even if you didn't want to admit it, was revenge against Roa more important than the fate of the entire world? And if it wasn't which path do you choose, it was hard to pick one over the other but finally you decided to…

What does Arcueid Decide to do?

[] Hunt down Roa, the world can wait, Roa's demise cannot.

[] Try to ambush the red faction's servants, reduce Kotomine's power base.

[] Attempt to steal the command seals and servants of the Black faction, Increase your own power base.

A/N: Gil's got the skills, he was able to quickly reverse Arcueid's negative opinion about him, good thing he hasn't hit puberty yet. Anyways this chapter was a doozy since I couldn't really find a point to stop since I wanted to include much more, and it feels incomplete but at the same time I couldn't let it go on too much longer and let Gil solve everything in a single chapter, so I'm just left with an unsatisfied feeling.

Another Thing I feel people didn't consider is that Gilgamesh allows Arcueid to permanently end Roa even without the grail, another is that he allows the theft of other servants through rule breaker and other NP shenanigans. This might not be to great if Gil was on his own but with someone of Arcueid's caliber using them it can get out of hand quickly. Normally Gil wouldn't do this but since this version of him loves humanity and he senses a world ending threat he's pulling out all the stops to prevent it, even stooping to means he normally wouldn't use.

Zhaitan · Jul 8, 2018

The fate of the world was important, but all the servants of one faction needed to die for that to happen, that gives you more than enough time to focus on the reason why you arrived, Roa.

"We're going after Roa Archer, the sooner we deal with him the sooner we can deal with that priest Kotomine. Still we're going to have to wait for a day to find him, as the nights almost over and that serpent tends to only be active during the night." You give a little sigh thinking about that, but trying to find Roa when he was hiding away was nearly impossible for you.

"Master this man Roa stole a portion of your power, correct? Normally I would agree with you, but since he has your power that gives the two of you a strong sympathetic tie, in other words I have several items that could help track him down right now." He finishes with a dazzling smile, you're starting to really like this kid.

"I'm not sure if I'm even surprised anymore, your Gate of Babylon is so convenient, alright let's do this that snake is going down!" you pump your fist in the air exuberantly.

"Here Master this medallion, was crafted by a powerful mage in ages past to find fragments of his power spread all over the world, this should work like a charm to find your enemy." He hands you a golden amulet with odd runic engravings all over its surface.

"Put it around your neck" You do so "Go on open it, that's all you need to activate it." You heed archer's words and behold a small golden and blue miniature world, slowly spinning inside it, you can't help but marvel at this trinket's beauty, at least for a while.

"Uhm, is this all it does, spin around looking pretty?" you note after several minutes of nothing special happening.

Archer merely grins in response "It's scanning the entire world for any source of power tied to your own, it will take a few more minutes to gather all that information, but once its finished all you need to do is think of which location your power is at and the medallion with guide you."

So basically, you needed to wait for a bit, that wasn't too bad considering you were going to have to wait the entire day if you didn't have this option. Still silence wasn't your strong suit and you wanted to ask Gilgamesh a few more things if only to pass the time.

"Gilgamesh servants fight to the death in this Grail War for others but why?" Archer looks at you puzzled for a moment before realization dawns on his face.

"I see, so you don't know, that priest was quite sparse on what he told you huh? The reason why servants compete is because they're also promised a wish by the grail if they win, well that's the reason for most servants but not myself." he gives you a sad smile, that's odd that's the first time you've seen him unhappy.

You give Archer a questioning gaze "What's wrong Gilgamesh" you ask worriedly.

Archer merely looks at you in surprise "Oh I didn't mean to look so down, and it's embarrassing to explain it but I already know so much about you it's only fair…" he pauses here looking like he's gathering his courage "I, My reason for answering your call is because for as long as I can remember I was always praised as a great hero and king, I was worshipped by my people, they revered me but at the same time, it was that worship that stopped them from approaching me." He gives you a hollow smile when he says this.

"I was lonely Master, I felt isolated from everyone else like I was destined to rule at the top alone forever, even in the throne of heroes I felt the same. So, when I heard your call, I could tell we were similar if only in the fact that we both felt isolated and alone for most of our lives, that we both wanted a friend, that's why I'm here." Archer says the last half with a blush on his face, he looks shyly up at you through his long lashes, you stand there stupefied for a second if only because his words struck a chord with you.

It's your turn to blush when you fully digest his words, were you really that lonely? You honestly couldn't tell you've been alone for far too long but when you think about it you really enjoyed spending your time with Len, as if just being around her healed something within you.

You frown at that realization, you were lonely how laughable that the fearsome and powerful White Princess of the True Ancestors could be hurt by something like emotions.

"Master are you alright?" Gilgamesh's question brings you out of your self-depreciation before in can start. You look at him before ruffling his golden locks all over the place "Master, you're making my hair messy." Archer whined in response, seems like even if he is unusually mature he's still a kid.

"Master are we friends yet? I've never had a friend before, so I can't tell." You look down, towards archer's beet red face and smile "Yeah we're friends Gilgamesh." Ruffling his hair even more as boy gives you the most radiant and cheerful smile you've ever seen in centuries, even as he tries to bat your arms ineffectually away from his hair.

Suddenly a susurrus of noise, the chiming of bells, the whisper of a forest and so many other things, ruins the moment.

Looking towards the source, it was the medallion Gilgamesh gave you, what was it doing?

"lt seems the Noble Phantasm is ready" you nod in response, and inside that golden globe you can feel it, see it, your power separated from you was in the town, you want to know where in this town though. As if in response to your thoughts the amulet starts to glow and lightly lifts off you neck, giving light tugs towards what you assume is Roa's location.

"Let's go Gilgamesh, we have a snake to hunt!" Gilgamesh gives a decisive nod as well, while responding to your words "I've never much liked snakes anyways."

59+38(overflow)+15(Gil's help)=112 Crit!

Quickly picking Gilgamesh up in a princess carry, you leap above the rooftops towards the direction the amulet was guiding you, not wanting to waste your time navigating the roads when you could take a straight path to your destination.

"Master I can walk, myself you know!" you ignore his protests, this way you can hunt down Roa all the faster, what you notice is odd though is the strange golden hued bounded field is following your pace, it must be a treasure Gilgamesh deployed instead of some regular mage craft.

With your blistering speed it doesn't even take you more than ten minutes to find where Roa's been hiding, it was a large castle, you were going to turn it into rubble by the time you were done with him.

"Master wait!!!" your servant shouts at you urgently, why was he trying to stop you? You thought he was going to help you with this, you drop him down on the ground as he rushes to explain sensing your impatience. "That's the Black Factions headquarters, your enemy is a member of their faction."

That threw you for a loop, but then again Roa did always tend to choose magi or those with potential for mage craft as his hosts. Still even with multiple servants by his side you weren't going to hesitate, you would still storm this castle, servants or no servants!

"Master, while it's nice to see you so determined, we should do a bit more reconnaissance before we jump in otherwise we'll just dig our own grave, and It just so happens I have just the thing we need." Gilgamesh drops a golden pool out of one of his portals, you look at it with confusion what was it supposed to do?

Your confusion doesn't last long as Gilgamesh merely touches the golden metal surrounding the water, the water suddenly ripples, and you see a vast array of images reflecting upon the shimmering liquid of what you assume to be the inside of the castle while Gilgamesh mutters to himself "It's a woman, it's not a homunculus, no definitely not that sadistic lady even though she's mean, Ahah!" he shouts

"Master I found this Roa you were looking for, here she is, and boy is her head messed up." You look at the pool and see a young girl in a wheelchair, so this was Roa?

Gilgamesh answered even though you didn't ask "This girl here, is the current host of Michael Roa Valdamjong, she is Fiore Forvedge Yggdamellenia the master of Archer of Black as well as Assassin of Black. It seems as if Roa awakened a bit late, as the reason she hasn't been very active is due to the fact the leader of the black faction already had a powerful servant summoned, so she's been very careful not to reveal her activities to him, oh and she doesn't need the wheelchair anymore it's just for show, well that and it's a decent mystic code." Well that explained why there were so few dead apostles, Roa had to sneak around under nearly the whole black factions noses so that slowed his progress significantly but how did he have two servants?

Gilgamesh once again somehow anticipating what you were going to ask answered "It seems she summoned archer regularly and acquired assassin from a rogue element of the black faction during one of her hunts and quite recently too. She was hesitant in making any waves, since she wasn't confident enough that she could subvert the black faction under it's leaders nose fast enough, although with assassin that soon might change." Now that was bad, the thought of Roa with a whole faction of servants sent shivers down your spine, and not the good kind either.

"This isn't going to be easy then will it Archer?" He looks at you at shakes his head "It won't be master, but this can't be allowed to continue either. Two madmen attempting to subvert both factions what a headache. It's even worse because you can't kill the black factions servants." He gives a tired sigh.

"Why can't we kill the black servants?" Gilgamesh looks at the castle looming in the distance, then back towards you "If we kill all the black servants or even weaken them that just makes Kotomine's world ending wish that much easier to obtain, in fact killing the black faction will only serve to help him."

"Ehehe, I kind of forgot about that, now that I think about it isn't this even worse than I first thought? I mean how am I supposed to get to Roa if I can't kill the servants protecting him?" you give a nervous laugh at how bad the situation seems.

"Don't worry master I already have a plan. Or well it's in fact the plan I was going to go with in regards to the black faction anyways, we steal the servants instead of killing them." You look towards Gilgamesh as suddenly an oddly shaped knife and golden ring fall from his gate "Master meet Rule Breaker and a nameless prototype for Solomon's ring, these two Noble Phantasms in conjunction will allow you to break a servant's contract then highjack the command seal from the master, effectively allowing you to steal servants." Gilgamesh gave you a smug look before continuing.

"First use the Knife Rule Breaker on the servant that will disrupt the connection between master and servant leaving the bond vulnerable to interference, this is where the ring will come into play, merely press the ring on an enemy's command seals for a few moments while desiring to have their seals and they will become yours just like that." Gilgamesh's mouth was running a mile a minute, it was only through your superior senses that you were able to keep up with his excited pace.

"All right then what are we waiting for, we've got a snake to skin!" Your servant once again interrupts your charge with his words "Master shouldn't we wait for nightfall? It's already dawn and while I admit I'm somewhat worried what Roa can get up to with a new servant by his side, you'll be at a lot less risk and have an easier time subduing the servants if we fight at night."

This kid, even though he looks that young he's probably the wisest even if not the most knowledgeable person you've ever met, that title goes to uncle Zelretch. He's right though, but he said even he was worried about Roa's machinations, could you afford to wait even though it would help guarantee your victory? Again, Gilgamesh lays a hard decision on your lap, you're starting to wonder if this will become a habit of his.

"All right Archer, here's what we'll do…"

What does Arcueid decide to do?

[] Wait until nightfall to storm Yggdamellenia's castle although this gives more time for Roa to plot, your chances of victory rise with your strength.

[] Storm the castle now! Roa cannot be allowed to exist for a second longer than he must!

A/N: Finished the chapter, I wonder how many were expecting this? After all I left a few hints, maybe people thought I would make Roa an OC? I personally dislike making OCS, especially if canon characters will make it more interesting. So Fiore is Roa and Gilgamesh once more shows his omniscient capabilities, he so broken, I was thinking of making this story a huge mystery with so many angles but Gil's just tearing through the veil like its wet tissue paper.
