In the midst of the chaos, the group watches Yang Xiao Long and Weiss Schnee fight.
Yang : "You traitor!"
Yang fired a bullet of fire out of her gauntlets towards Weiss Schnee, however–
Weiss : "SHUT UP!"
As a reaction, she created a wall of Ice and froze the bullet.
The group had no idea what was going on. Teammates of Team RWBY were fighting each other. The Guardians of the World were fighting each other, for what reason?
Emilia, Nathan, Elis, nobody knew what was going on.
Emilia : "Stop this! What's going on!"
Not responding immediately, Yang kept firing shots out of her gauntlets.
Yang : "Ask the Ice Queen! That Demon is the cause of Jens' amnesia!"
Weiss : "That's not true! STOP YANG!"
She created a black glyph and teleported the gunshots away.
Nathan : "What the hell? YOU GUYS! STOP! STOP FIGHTING IN A PLACE LIKE THIS!"
The two of them pause, while still standing in a stance, ready to fight.
Yang : "Stop fighting here? Sure. Hey Ice Queen!"
Weiss : "What is it?"
Yang : "Why don't we take this fight outside?"
Emilia : "NO! THAT'S NOT WHAT NATHAN MEAN—"
Weiss : "Sounds like a plan. Prepare to die, Yang Xiao Long."
Yang Xiao Long fired a bullet towards the wall and destroyed it, immediately jumping to the outside world and waiting for Weiss to arrive.
Weiss created glyphs to levitate to the ground.
With the two girls continuing their battle outside, destroying most of the Garden of the Mather Territory, the group remained inside.
Immediately, Nathan activated Yang Magic and started restoring how the Mansion looked like.
Elis : "What the fuck is going on?"
Frederica : "A-Ahhh?! Let me clean this mess up! You all, go stop them!"
Lethias : "Hm? Why would we st–"
Emilia : "Listen up! Everyone here is here to help each other, right? You were in a horrible state, and we healed you. Now please, return the favor and try to stop them."
Lethias : "That sounds better."
He shrugged.
Emilia : "Do you know something about why they're fighting?"
Lethias : "No idea actually. I mean, she said something about Jens' memories, didn't she?"
Sapphire : "They're both from Team RWBY. The reason why team RWBY divided is unknown."
Emilia : "I see. Then we've to stop them! Follow me!"
Emilia ran towards the door and everyone followed her, except Nathan and Melissa.
Nathan was done restoring the damage of the Mansion, and looked Melissa right in the eyes.
Melissa : "Nathan… I'm so sorry. I never knew."
Nathan : "Well… You're my friend. I've to forgive you. But… You're from the Garden of Eden… Now you're under some kind of curse with Sirius A… My life is getting crazier and crazier, you know?"
He looked a little bit pissed.
Melissa : "Nathan… I didn't know anything of it. The day I got nearly killed by Masquerade… I barely remember what happened after that. We met those Warriors, Annie Leonhart and Starla Hyades, then Lucius von Rosewald betrayed us and—"
Nathan : "I know what happened. Get to the point."
He interrupted her. This time, he slightly narrowed her eyes, and clearly gave off an disgusted expression.
Melissa : "I know you're probably mad—"
Nathan : "I'm not. I just don't understand. We fought for revolution. Trying to show the world that not nobles can save this world too. Yet, you became that."
The silence made the situation worse.
Nathan : "Sirius A… Do you know what or who she is?"
Melissa : "Kinda… Well, I don't know who the actual Sirius A is. But I do know that Sirius A is able to corrupt or curse people. Those that are cursed, are able to get possessed by Sirius A whenever she desires."
Nathan : "I see…"
Melissa : "Nathan I…"
Even though all that she desired at this point was forgiveness, she wasn't able to speak. She saw how troubled Nathan was because of what happened to her.
Nathan : "I just don't know what to do."
Melissa : "Nathan please… What happened while I was gone?"
Nathan sighed.
Nathan : "The Sword Saint found Felt."
Melissa : "W-What?!"
Nathan : "She's at the moment a Royal Candidate, she's participating in the Royal Election. But she promised me that she will do whatever it takes to not become a Queen."
Melissa : "B-But the Nobles? They'll manipulate her!"
Nathan : "I don't even know anymore. I'm unable to swap Camps, so for the time being, I'll stay at the Emilia Camp to pay her and Jens back for saving me and Jens. I'll do whatever it takes to make Emilia Queen, so Felt won't."
He looked down. He wasn't sad, or troubled, he was confused by how overwhelming the situation is.
Melissa : "I'm sorry for not being there for you when all that happened. I promise you I won't—"
Nathan : "How can you even promise that? Before I realize it, you might be Sirius A again!"
This time, Nathan swung his hands out of anger.
Melissa : "I won't."
Nathan stared her in the eyes, hoping he would notice her lying, which he didn't notice at all. She was as serious as ever.
Still doubting that, he wasn't sure what he was supposed to say. Melissa was there his whole life for him. Since Nathan could recall, Melissa has been there. How could he be angry at her? It was a complicated feeling.
Nathan : "Alright then. I'll explain who you are to me to Emilia later, for now, you gotta help us stop Weiss Schnee and Yang Xiao Long from killing each other."
Melissa : "Understood! Let's go!"
The two of them ran towards the garden of the Mather's Mansion as soon as possible.
※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※
Ignoring the chaos outside of the Forbidden Library, Jens turns away from the entrance of the Library and looks right at Beatrice.
Jens : "You know about my Amnesia, don't you? You know who I am, is that it?"
Beatrice : "Sadly, I don't, I suppose. In fact, if I would know about your Amnesia, I would be the first one to return your memories so you would finally leave."
Jens : "Why? Why do you hate me so much?"
From irritation, Beatrice puts down her cup of tea.
Beatrice : "Your parents never taught you manners, I suppose."
Hearing this, Jens gulps.
Jens : "Continue."
Beatrice : "What am I supposed to say? You're rather irritating than—"
Suddenly, Beatrice smells something… rather disgusting.
Beatrice : "What is that smell?"
Jens : "Hmh?"
Jens sniffs.
Jens : "What are you talking about? I don't smell anything?"
Beatrice : "It's you, I suppose. In fact, You smell like the Witch"
Whatever that means. Jens didn't really care about that comment and shrugged.
Jens : "Are you trying to avoid the main subject? Stop fucking around and help me! Don't you realize through what pain I'm going? This confusion, this despair is consuming me from the inside!"
Beatrice looks into Jens' eyes, and narrows her eyes.
Beatrice : "If Betty would tell you, Betty would get really sad, I suppose. Go help your friends. In fact, Weiss and Yang are fighting, they probably want to see you."
Jens : "You…. Fucking monster!"
Beatrice : "What do you expect from Betty? You think Betty knows everything, I suppose?"
Jens : "Tell me something…"
He collapses, sits on his knees and looks at Beatrice, who's sitting in a chair, drinking tea and reading a book.
Something is wrong.
Beatrice doesn't look irritated.
Beatrice doesn't look angry.
Beatrice doesn't look cruel.
Beatrice… looks sad.
Beatrice : "Does the tale of the Three Kings tell you something?"
Jens looks up.
Jens : "The Three Kings?"
Beatrice : "The Leo King. The Lost King. The Washuu King, I suppose."
Jens : "Hmm… I heard the story about Regulus' Authority. Which was similar to a Fairy tale I used to read."
Beatrice : "You met Regulus, I suppose? In fact, you met the New Generation of Greed?"
Jens : "Yes, I think. What do you mean by 'New Generation', it sounds weird?"
Beatrice stood up.
Beatrice : "The Witches of Sin were the original owners of the Witch Genes, I suppose. After they all died, the Witch Cult became their new holders. In fact, the leader of the Witch Cult gave the Witch Genes to the Sin Archbishops that had the necessary qualities to hold them, I suppose."
Even though what Beatrice said sounded weird to him, he decided to not question it, and go with the flow.
There were still many things he didn't understand of the world, but he still tries to unravel those mysteries.
Jens : "I see. Do you know… The Leader?"
Beatrice : "Nope."
Jens : " 'Nope'?"
Beatrice : "I don't, I suppose."
Jens : "W-What?! Hey, it has been a while, atleast give me some answers. I need answers to understand what we're up against!"
The keeper of the library, Beatrice, is sitting on the chair, flipping through the book again.
Beatrice : "The mansion got more noisy after your return, I suppose."
Jens : "Stop kidding around! Tell me! What do you know? About this world, about me?"
Beatrice : "…"
Silent, she keeps reading her book.
Jens : "Do you… Remember Rem?"
Beatrice quickly looks at Subaru, again. Her eyes don't seem to hold any kind of emotion and it's impossible to tell what she's thinking, even though it's usually so easy to understand her feelings, based on what she says. It's like time's stopped, and Jens' heart start to burn with impatience.
Jens : "Come on, answer me! Why don't you say anything? You either know her, or don't know her. It's a Yes or No question."
He wanted to hear her answer. He didn't want to hear her answer. His heart was twisted with complicated desires.
Beatrice : "Betty… Doesn't want to answer, I suppose."
Jens : "What? What's with this 'I don't want to answer'. The question's only answerable with a 'YES' or a 'NO'."
Beatrice : "No matter what you say, Betty's answer won't change, I suppose. In fact, Betty doesn't know what 'yes' or 'no' mean."
Jens : "Beatrice… I already told you, that's not a valid answer. I don't want to hear that!"
Beatrice : "Why must Betty tell you what you want to hear, I suppose. I'd prefer you didn't get too rowdy, in fact. You'll disturb the library, I suppose."
Out of irritation, Jens forms a fist out of his hand and was about to hit a wall, or a bookshelf, or just something, to express his anger. Until—
Beatrice : "Your question is inquiring about somebody eaten by Gluttony, I suppose."
Suddenly, Jens looks immediately at Beatrice and doesn't lose sight of her.
He's only focused on her, and realizes something.
Jens : "You! You! You really do remember!"
Beatrice : "If you know of the Authority of Gluttony, it's easy to make a rough guess, I suppose. Roswaal, Bubby, and Shaula would also know, in fact."
Jens : "R-Roswaal?! Bubby? Who's Sha–"
Beatrice : "Bubby is Puck, I suppose. Shaula is the Sage, who's guarding the Pleiades Watchtower."
Suddenly, he doesn't know what to ask, the fact that Roswaal knows about this, and didn't inform the Camp, is quite troublesome. What was he scheming? First the Raven and Masquerade attack, and now this?
Jens : "Beatrice, come outside with me. You would help everyone so much, please come!"
Beatrice : "I rather keep reading, I suppose."
Jens : "I see… Then finish your first story, the Three Kings."
She looks up.
Beatrice : "The Three Kings were the ones that kept out world in harmony, until the Earth Devil appeared, I suppose."
Jens : "The Earth Devil? Th–"
Beatrice : "An unknown individual, possibly an Endbringer, who cursed humanity and gave Emerada Lugnica the gift of the Witches of Sin."
Jens : "A-Ah?!"
Beatrice : "Although this might be an inaccurate guess, I would say that the Earth Devil will not reappear in thousands of years. He disappeared after the disappearance of the Forgotten Kingdom, I suppose."
Jens : "You know… The name of the Forgotten Kingdom, right?"
Beatrice : "I do, I suppose."
Jens : "T-Then what about those Three Kings? Who are they?"
Beatrice : "Impossible for me to know, the only place where you could get that kind of information is the Corridor of Memories, I suppose."
Jens : "That's where exactly?"
Beatrice : "Nobody knows, I suppose."
Jens : "Ah-"
Beatrice : "Now if you excuse me, leave this place, I suppose!"
Jens : "W-Wait!"
Beatrice pointed her arm towards him and released a shockwave of darkness, firing him through the doors, through a wall, through a window, into the garden.
It felt like he lost consciousness for a split second, but when he opened his eyes, he found himself falling.
He threw his spear as far as possible into the garden, and teleported towards it.
While injured because of Beatrice's Magic, he looked around him, and saw….
※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※
Emilia : "Yang! Weiss Schnee! Stop!"
Yang kept firing her gauntlet's bullets of explosive fires, trying aiming for Weiss Schnee. However, Weiss' weapon allowed her to use every kind of Magic, even though she's not a Magic User, her weapon contains Mana Stones, of very high purity.
She created a wall of Ice to stop the bullet which was in a dangerous range near her, and stopped it, however after the bullet was fired, Yang ran towards Weiss Schnee, and punched the wall, breaking it, and hitting Weiss Schnee with the Ice.
As Weiss was fired into the air because of that punch, Yang immediately aimed for her mid air and fired three shots out of her gauntlets. But Weiss had enough energy and summoned her Arma Gigas.
The gigantic Knight blocked the three shots with ease and Weiss landed on his shoulder.
Weiss : "Yang Xiao Long! Stop right there immediately, like I already told you. It wasn't my fault, it wasn't my burden to bear!"
Yang : "You're lying! Liar! Liar! Liar!"
Not willing to listen to the words Weiss said, Yang smashed her fists into the earth and launched herself to get in range with Weiss, however the Arma Gigas immediately kicked her into the ground, nearly creating an earthquake.
Yang : "—Kyaghh!!"
The ground around her shattered, and the fountain near her exploded. The whole garden was destroyed. The group was watching from afar, nobody came close to their strength level.
Weiss : "Surrender, and realize the fact that it wasn't me. Jens told me that it wasn't my fault. He said it himself."
Yang : "Don't y-you fucking realize what he did? He was trying to save you from killing yourself! You psychotic maniac! You stole Jens from us!"
Then, Weiss activated a Glyph so she levitated to the ground, and didn't splat like a bug, and landed on the ground.
From there, she dashed towards Yang and tried aiming for her throat with her rapier, but Yang shot the ground with her gauntlets, and launched herself away from her, creating a bigger distance between the two of them.
Suddenly, Nathan ran towards them, along with Lethias and Sapphire.
Nathan : "WEISS! YANG! STOP THIS!"
The two others didn't say anything, they just followed them.
The two, Yang and Weiss just ignored Nathan's scream, and continued brawling. Yang started firing gauntlet bullets with a curve, so Weiss couldn't predict where they would land. The Arma Gigas luckily protected Weiss of seven or more bullets, but one bullet went straight towards her. Weiss created a wall of earth, and stopped it, however the bullet was so powerful, that it shattered and the bricks and stone broke into little pieces which hurt her Aura.
Nathan : "Sapphire, go for Yang Xiao Long. Lethias, go for Weiss Schnee. I'll stay here and aim for them both, understood?"
Lethias : "I'm on it!"
Sapphire : "Gotcha!"
Sapphire summoned his snowboard, and immediately rushed towards the battlefield, changing all the Mana in the atmosphere into ice, and started snowboarding towards Yang Xiao Long.
Not knowing what's going on, Yang doesn't attack until she realizes that they're trying to interfere with the fight, and jumps into the air, firing her gauntlet's bullets into the ground so Sapphire couldn't snowboard, and set the surrounding around her into flames.
Shattering the track of Ice which Sapphire was riding, Sapphire landed on his feet and ran through the flames Yang created.
Yang made her fists ignite, and set them on fire and tried to punch Sapphire into the face, however…
He transformed his Snowboard into a giant shield, which was surrounded by Water Spirits, so fire attacks would have literally no effect on it.
From afar, Nathan fired a flame of light towards Sapphire and hit him, he made his movements go way quicker. This was a kind of buffing Yang Magic which was relatively common, but it was very efficient in hand to hand combat.
Sapphire ducked and kicked her feet, making her lose her balance and then created a prison of Ice around her.
Yang : "W-What are you all doing?! That is our enemy!"
She pointed at Weiss.
Sapphire : "That's not my call to make."
In the meantime.
Lethias created road of Earth, he created long stone, which he was able to stand on. He then made the road shake so he and the stone he was standing on moved, and dashed towards Weiss, like a skater.
The Arma Gigas near her used his sword to shatter the road of earth, however Lethias jumped into the air, but the reflexes of the Arma Gigas were beyond his, and the Spiritual Mana Knight formed a fist and was about to punch Lethias, which might be lethal.
Nathan : "Clausel Akra!"
Nathan made Lethias shine a ray of light, and when the Arma Gigas punched him, it had no effect. This shield was able to avoid one attack. It was a very rare kind of Magic, as not many Yang Mages are able to use it.
Arma Gigas got pushed back because of the force he used on a literally unbreakable shield. Because of this, Lethias tried to land as close as possible near Weiss Schnee and landed behind her. Weiss Schnee immediately turned around and created a black sphere which was trying to suck Lethias into it.
Lethias : "Clausel Gaia!"
Spines of Earth arose from the ground, which made Weiss jump into the air, and desummoning her Black Sphere. Lethias used this opportiunity to stop her fight, and jumped towards her, and created a rock prison. He touched her back and made her limbs surrounded with rock solid stone.
Weiss : "Ah?!"
She landed on her back, it didn't hurt at all.
Lethias : "I'm sorry Weiss."
Immediately, the group which existed of Otto Suwen, Emilia, Nathan Harmonia, Melissa Lestrange, Frederica Baumann and Elis Rose Evergarden, arrived at the battlefield.
Yang Xiao Long was in a frozen cage, which was unable to melt. Weiss Schnee was in a rock prison, which was also unable to break, unless she was a Magic User, which she wasn't.
Emilia : "The two of you, come!"
She pointed at Lethias and Sapphire, who walked towards Emilia.
Emilia : "Yang, what's going on? You said nasty words to Weiss… I never thought you hated her? Or… even wanted to kill her. What happened?"
Then, after reminding that Yang hated Weiss so much, Yang immediately tried to kill Weiss with her gauntlet bullets, as the cage had holes in it, it went right towards her.
Nathan : "NO!"
An edge of a silver or steel blade blocked the bullet. It was a blade of a spear, the wielder of that spear was common knowledge to everyone.
Yang : "A-Ah…"
Jens : "I guess I was on time, wasn't I?"
Weiss : "Jens…"
He made his weapon disappear and looked at Yang.
Jens : "Yang Xiao Long… Please tell me, what happened to you and Weiss?"
She sighed, she was unable to fight anymore, as Jens stood in the way, and Jens was the last person she was able to hurt, or even scratch.
Yang : "She's the one that betrayed you… She's the one that told your master plans to the Leo King."
Jens : "Hm?"
Yang : "Of course you wouldn't understand. She told those plans to the Leo King and then people who obeyed his orders, brainwashed you. Your memories, those days, the happy moments…"
Yang's eyes started tear up, her tears fell on the hard surface of the ice cage and she collapsed to her knees.
Yang : "After I heard that you were gone, I just didn't want to live anymore. However… Ruby Rose, my half sister was the reason why I woke up everyday. I wanted to protect those who I kept close to me."
Jens nodded.
Yang : "Team RWBY, You, my family. Many years passed after your disappearance, and that's when Weiss revealed everyone that SHE was the one that betrayed you. She met up with one of Leo's spies and told them information."
Jens : "I see. So you're angry at Weiss for betraying me?"
Yang : "Yes, of course! You're the one that led us to victory many times!"
Jens : "Don't be angry."
Yang : "Huh?"
The sudden, and very quick response of Jens made Yang's feelings more complicated than they already were.
Jens : "Don't tell me you never did something you regretted, right?"
Yang : "W-Well…"
Jens : "Exactly! Everyone makes mistakes in their lives, especially me. Even though some mistakes lead to defeat, Weiss' didn't. We're still able to fight back against our enemies, am I right?"
Yang : "Y…es"
Jens : "Our faith in victory is gone when our hope is divided by doubt and lies."
She looks at him, but she doesn't know what to say.
Jens : "I don't know what my relationship is or was with everyone that still remembers me from former days, but I'll do whatever it takes to return those days. Now that I'm with the Emilia Camp, I want to make his my future, make her our Queen, but that doesn't mean that we cannot go back to the days how they were."
Yang : "I… I see."
Jens turned around, and walked towards Weiss Schnee.
Weiss : "Jens…"
Jens : "Weiss, I want you to tell me the full story while we go the Sanctuary. The whole story about me, where I lived, who I was, everything you know, alright?"
Weiss : "O-Of course!"
Jens : "Great. Please, the sins you committed, don't let them haunt you. Whatever you did, if you thought it was the right choice to make, I'll go with it. Even if you really are the reason why I got brainwashed, I'm not angry. I wouldn't know what I would do in your situation. So please, forgive me."
Weiss : "F-Forgive you for what?!"
Jens : "Forgive me for being such a bad teacher. It appears I never taught you the most important lesson."
Weiss : "W-What is it?"
Jens : "Redemption and Forgiveness. Now, this is my first order."
He walked a bit back towards Yang's cage and broke the cage, along with Weiss' prison.
Jens : "Forgive each other. From what I've heard. Team RWBY was the team that guarded this world, don't tell me you actually hate each other for what you did in the past. The past is the past, but think about the future… so please–"
Jens bowed.
Jens : "Yang, Weiss, forgive."
Yang walked towards Weiss, and Weiss walked towards Yang.
The two of them stared at each other, with both tears in their eyes.
Yang : "I… I might've overreacted back then. I'm sorry."
Weiss : "You had all the right to be angry at me, I was supposed to think before making my actions, which I clearly didn't do correctly. I'm sorry too."
Yang : "So… Team RWBY again?"
Weiss : "Team RWBY it is!"
The two of them came very close and hugged. They embraced each other and didn't let go, as the tears streamed off their faces.
Sapphire : "We sure did a good job, didn't we, Nate, Tias?"
Lethias : "Whatever."
He walked towards the Gate of Roswaal Territory.
Emilia : "Lethias! Where are you going?!"
Everyone looked at him, even Yang and Weiss.
He turned around.
Lethias : "Did you guys forget? The Sanctuary Barrier doesn't have too much time, let's go already for fuck sake."
Ruining the mood a little, everyone stood up and followed him. Even though it was the right thing to do, it felt odd.
Elis : "A-Ah! My apologies! I've to attend to some matters in the Mansion, please take care! I'll go to the Sanctuary as soon as possible!"
Emilia : "Understood. Stay safe Elis."
Emilia looked at Elis as she turned around and followed the group. Elis ran towards the Mansion and entered it.
Out of the window, a girl was staring at the group leaving the Grounds of Roswaal.
Beatrice : "This boy… He really is the one."
※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※
In a dark, dark place. Roswaal stood on a platform, just a few meters higher than where the other people were bowing before him.
Surprisingly enough, Ram was not there.
Suddenly, the doors open and Furuta walks in. The so called Washuu King, the one that everyone thinks is "Elis Rose Evergarden", Furuta Washuu looked at Roswaal.
Roswaal : "Aaaah~… Nimura, you're late."
Hearing this, Furuta looks towards
Furuta : "No Elis anymore? You really are reckless, aren't you, clown?"
Roswaal : "Perhaps."
Furuta : "I see. Then, what do you expect me to do, Roswaal?"
Roswaal : "Everyone! Listen up!"
There were at the very least a hundred people, all wearing Masquerade masks, and they were wearing a Jester outfit. All of them didn't talk, they were absolutely silent and obeyed every order Roswaal L Mathers gave them.
Roswaal : "It's time for V! Eeeeeeeeeeveryone! Destroy the Sanctuary, make as much chaos as possible, divide them, strangle their heaaaaaa~rts!"
Without a single sound, the clowns immediately turned around and walked out of the door, with only Furuta staying.
He stood up, stopped bowing and looked at Roswaal. Roswaal however, walked towards him, and left the platform, stage, thing.
The two of them looked right in the eyes, both already knew what the plan was, yet they didn't talk. What was this about? Telepathy? That's what a normal person would think, but no.
Furuta : "So… You want me to fail the trials of the Sanctuary on purpose?"
Roswaal : "Yeeees."
Furuta : "I see. How should I enter? Wouldn't Jens notice me there? I bet he'll be there too."
Roswaal : "The Sanctuary doesn't work like that. They're parallel worlds. You and Jens are unable to meet there."
Furuta : "Let me guess, V will cause internal problems for the Emilia Camp so I can easily enter the Barrier?"
Roswaal : "Correeect."
Furuta : "Then I got one more question."
He sighed.
Furuta : "Don't you feel shame?"
Roswaal : "Aaaaaaaahhhhaaaaa! My sweet dear, Nimura Furuta Washuu… You truly are something I'm unable to understand. But I loveeee that."
Furuta : "Fair enough. I'll go back to the Sanctuary then."
Roswaal : "You don't heed to V or the Washuu Clan… Then please tell me, what are you fighting for Nimura Furutaaaaa?"
Furuta grinned, wickedly.
Furuta : "Oh you pathetic little bug. I could splat you so easily, I don't think you understand who I am. I'm one of the final survivors of the Garden of Eden. I'm Masquerade. I'm the Crazed Prince! I'm the Washuu King! The First Child of Eden directly affiliated with the Washuu Family and the Gusteko family! I was born with this precious life, so why are you restricting me from doing whatever the fuck I want? I'll do whatever it takes to have the best life that is possible!"
Roswaal looked at him, he noticed that one of his eyes turned black and red, the Garden of Eden trait.
Furuta : "I'll find Ruby Rose, and marry her, and then I'll kill Jens. I'm the only King that must exist. Everyone on this earth are just toys, waiting to be played with. Do you think that's nice? Waiting for someone to find you to do something with you? Waiting for many years! A FUCK! RUBY IS ALREADY WAITING FOR MORE THAN HUNDREDS OF YEARS GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!"
Suddenly, Furuta started biting his fingers, scratching them, almost biting them off, but they regenerated too quickly.
Roswaal : "You're disgusting, aren't youuu?"
Furuta : "Call it Disgusting, call it amazing, what ever the fuck suits you. I'm Nimura Furuta Washuu. I'll be the one that stabs Jens and kill him. He'll die. He'll fucking die. He'll die. I fucking hate him."
Roswaal : "Doooo you? Because I don't believe that, you filthy Washuu."
Furuta : "HAHA! LOOK WHO'S TALKING, YOU GOT FUCKING OBLITERATED BY HECTOR AND YOU'RE STILL TALKING? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! WHERE'S YOUR TEACHER? WHERE IS ECHIDNA? OH WAIT, SHE'S FUCKING DEAD BECAUSE YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY USELESS AND WAS UNABLE TO PROTECT THE SANCTUARY ON YOUR OWN. THAT'S RIGHT, RIGHT? RHETORICAL QUESTION, OF FUCKING COURSE I'M RIGHT, I'M FURUTA!"
Roswaal : "You… Demon."
Furuta : "Hnnng… Now, tell me, who's the chess player, and who is the pawn, Roswaal Leonard Mathers?"
Furuta was right, he was obviously the one playing chess against Jens it seemed. Roswaal, Emilia, Regulus, Satella, everyone else, were simply pawns in the game of Chess.
But with this many pawns, which one will rise, and which one will die?
Roswaal bit his lip.
Furuta : "No need to angry. Us two working together is temporary anyway, we want the same thing. Perhaps you care about that Emilia Camp, I don't care. We both want the Witches to be released, am I right?"
Roswaal : "Yes Furuta."
Furuta : "If you want to redeem yourself, and protect Echidna this time, then stop fucking whining, I'm the only one that's able to fulfill your plans, and there is nobody that is able to stop me."
Roswaal : "You… are not human."
Furuta : "That's right. I'm an Eden."
A fight where words and emotions were the blades of revolution.
The Clown and The Jester talked, and they were both ready to kill each other, but were they both capable of doing so? The two of them were both necessary for their plan.
Nimura Furuta Washuu. The Crazed Prince, the Washuu King, the one that's capable of destroying the world with his power level. The one that erased Jens' memories, what oh what was he scheming for the Sanctuary.
Furuta turned around and walked away, simply leaving the dark room.
Roswaal however, looked down and told himself.
Roswaal : "Echidna… I miss you. I'll save you. Oh God… Please forgive me for not being able to save you… That day."
Outside of the building, Furuta stood with his back leaning against a wall and looked at the sky.
Furuta : "The stories were true, this world is cursed because of those demons. The good old glory days will never return. Ruby… I miss you."
