"We're back..."
"Welcome back, you three." Yuriko Takagi, Saya's mother greeted back at the Takagi estate to Misogi, Rimuru, and Kazuma after the three of them came back from hunting more zombies factory.
It's been a week and a half after Saeko confessed to Misogi, whom he accepted as his lover. Needless to say, his girlfriends congratulated Saeko and welcomed her as their new sister and comrade in arms as Misogi's girlfriends/lovers after they both got back from Saeko's house.
The day after that, the MCG members eliminated the zombies they found around the Takagi estate, and it took them two days for them to clear the batches of zombies in the surrounding area. And now there were no zombies for five kilometers around the Takagi estate, which made the people inside the estate sigh in relief that there were no zombies around them when they went out to search for food and other things outside the estate.
Seeing that there were no more zombies around, Misogi decided it was time for them to search the zombie factory around the world the next day. In the span of a week and a half, the reincarnated trio had already eliminated around forty-three zombie factories.
The three of them go out hunting around the world in the morning with Rimuru's Vimana and come back late at night to the Takagi estate via Misogi teleportation. Making Misogi, Rimuru, and Kazuma left pretty exhausted.
This day is also no better for them. But what makes them exhausted and annoyed today is the search for this particular zombie factory.
"How is your hunt today for the zombie factory? Judging by you guy's expression right now, it's not well, huh?" Saya asked after her mother greeted them and winced after seeing the annoyed expression they had.
"Yes, today's search and destroy mission is... Annoying." Rimuru replied to her with a sullen tone.
"Yeah. We only eliminated two of them today. Only two!" Said Kazuma while emphasizing the last part of his sentence.
Saya raised an eyebrow, "Were these two zombie factories difficult to deal with?"
"No. It's easy to defeat them with Kazuma's flame." Misogi said while slumping his shoulders, "The problem is the location of the second zombie factory."
"Who would have thought that it was under the ocean!" Kazuma yelled in an exasperated tone, "And it could move around underwater, too! Confusing the heck of us when the compass moves around when we look at its needle!"
"It's also taken us quite a long time to realize that it's underwater," Rimuru said with an irritated voice. Remembering how the heck the three of them didn't realize it sooner. Making them look stupid.
"Then how are you guys defeated it?" Yuriko asked.
"At first we also wondered how to do it. In the end, the solution was simple." Rimuru answered her with a weak smile, "Misogi erased the entire ocean."
Saya and her mother blinked repeatedly after hearing Rimuru's answer.
"... Pardon? Did I hear that right? Kumagawa-kun erased the ocean?" Yuriko asked while she couldn't help but doubt her hearing.
"You didn't hear it wrong, Yuriko-san. Misogi erased the ocean in this world and brought it back after Kazuma burned a strangely shaped submarine to ash."
""... Oh."" Replied the mother and daughter duo with a dumbfounded look.
"At that time, it reminds me again that Misogi is one of the overpowered characters with the overpowered cheat in the multiverse." Kazuma gave Misogi a glance with a vacant look.
Hearing their talk about his All Fiction, Misogi couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "Awww, c'mon. I'm not that great. There is also one person who is equal to me or above in my world, you know."
"Eh? There's someone that is more overpowered than you?" Rimuru asked in a surprised tone.
"Yeah, his code name is Alpha-Omega." Said Misogi with a smile, "You probably know him by the name Yogiri Takatou."
"Yogiri Takatou... Sounds familiar to me, where I've heard that name before?" Rimuru mumbled while his hand rubbed his chin.
After thinking for a while, Kazuma widened his eyes and quickly looked at Misogi, "Yogiri Takatou, as in that instant death guy?!"
Hearing Kazuma's exclamation, Rimuru also widened his eyes, "The personification of death is in your world!?"
Misogi nodded his head hearing their question, "Yeah. We met many times before at the PSYREN Japanese branch. And we were also gaming buddies. He is a nice guy but a bit lazy, much to the exasperation of his girlfriends."
"He has girlfriends?!" Shouted Kazuma in surprise.
"Yeah, Tomochika Dannoura and Enju Sumeragi." Answered Misogi.
"The one who always plays the straight(wo)man and his childhood friend, huh? Why I'm not surprised they ended up together." Rimuru said after remembering those names in the light novel he read, "So he's Takatou from after the light novel had ended?"
"Yep, he is; I think there are some people who are glad and happy that he got isekai'ed and gone from my world, then despaired after he returned from another world."
"Is he feared by some people who know the supernatural in your world?" Kazuma asked him.
"Considering his ability to kill anything, even concept, yeah, there's some who feared him... And me too, for that matter, since, you know, my All Fiction."
"Touché." Kazuma simply replied.
They then started talking about Yogiri and his adventure in another world. Leaving Saya and his mother, who are listening to their discussion, feel dumbfounded and scared at this person's ability to kill anything.
The three of them would talk for a long time if not for a new arrival arriving and interrupting their conversations.
"Yuriko-san, Saya-san, dinners ready~. Oh Misogi-kun, everyone, welcome back~." Akeno, who was wearing an apron (not a naked apron, mind you), called them and gave Misogi a quick hug.
Seeing Akeno hugging Misogi, Kazuma glanced at Saya, and she knew what he was thinking.
"We're still not on that stage yet," Saya replied, making Kazuma slump in disappointment.
After giving Misogi a quick hug, Akeno asked him how their hunting was going today, to which Misogi answered with a 'Annoying Submarine' while having an annoyed expression.
Rimuru then explained to Akeno about their hunt today, making the Yamato Nadeshiko awkwardly smile at them after hearing their stories.
"Well, you guys must be tired, right? We already prepared the bath for you three and then have dinner after that. You guys must be hungry right?"
"Yes, and we're thankful for that," Misogi answered Akeno and gave her a quick peck on her lip, making her blink a few times, then let out a cute giggle.
"Well, I will go to bath first, then eat; see ya later," Kazuma said and left them and went to the Takagi estate's big and wide bathroom.
"Wait for us! C'mon Misogi let's go!" Rimuru quickly followed Kazuma and urged Misogi to come with them to the bath.
"Okay." Answered Misogi as he also followed Rimuru, "See you later, Akeno, Saya-san, and Yuriko-san."
"""Yes, see you later.""" The three women replied.
~~~Time Skip after Dinner~~~
Misogi is lying down on the bed in his room at the Takagi estate.
He is actually not very tired since he erased it with All Fiction for the past few days to hunt the zombie factory. He also offered to erase Rimuru and Kazuma's tiredness but they refused, saying that they can enjoy a good night's sleep if they feel tired.
"Should I return back my tiredness?" Misogi mumbled while crossing his arms and thinking of something simple, such as having a good night's sleep.
A knocks on his door interrupt his thoughts,
"Yes, who is it?" Asked Misogi as he got up from his bed and turned his head toward the door.
"It's us, darling~" A familiar voice answered him outside his door room.
"Kurumi? Come inside then; the door is not locked."
The door of his room was pushed open as the one who opened it entered his room.
"Kurumi, Akeno, Saeko, and Shizuka?" Misogi blinked a few times, seeing all his lovers except Aiho gathered together and entering his room, "Is there anything I can help with?"
"We want to sleep with you, with some lewd night action activities, of course~" Said Akeno as she started crawling onto his bed with a seductive smile.
"As Akeno-san has said, the four of us want to have segs with you." Followed Kurumi while licking her lips.
Misogi wasn't surprised that Kurumi and Akeno wanted to have segs again. But he didn't expect that Saeko and Shizuka want to do it too.
"Shizuka, Saeko you want to do it too?" Misogi asked his fourth and fifth girlfriends. He thoughts that they want to do it in private if each of them is ready to have their first-time segs.
"Yes, Misogi-kun. Both of us want to have our first time together with you tonight." Saeko answered with a barely noticeable blush on her cheeks.
"M-me too, I don't mind my first time are taken when we have o-orggies." Shizuka told Misogi with a red face and nervous smile as she anticipated her virginity to be taken by the man she loved, "Besides, me and Saeko-san are inexperienced. So we asked Akeno-san and Kurumi-san to guide us since they were already doing it with you."
Misogi could feel that the two of them were ready for their virginities to be taken by him.
"Well, if that's what both of you wanted, I gladly do it with you both." Misogi said without hesitation, "I hope you can survive my beast mode then!"
With that said, Misogi tackled his four girlfriends to the bed. Eliciting four cute, excited yelps in the process.
It seems Misogi can't return his tiredness with Non-Fiction yet for tonight's activities.
~~~Next Day~~~
Flying in the sky, the Vimana are fly at high speed. Soaring throught the cloud. Only three people can be seen as it passenger on the board.
"Hey Misogi, if you doing segs with your lovers, can you ask Akeno-san to put on a soundproof barrier in your room? I can heard you guys doing it in my room you know? Even when there is one room between our rooms." Rimuru tells Misogi with a twitching smile. He didn't have a good sleep because of the noise they're making.
"Yeah! As the one whose room are beside yours, I can heard it clearly you know!" Kazuma added with a shout while pointing an accusing finger at Misogi, "Do you know how the noise you guys made are making me horny! It made me to spend the night inside the bathroom with a cold shower to cool my lil bro!"
"Eh, did Akeno forget to put on a soundproofing barrier?" Misogi, the culprit for making his two fellow reincarnators couldn't sleep, was rubbing the back of his head with a sheepish smile plastered on his face.
"Yeah, she did." Replied Rimuru with a sigh, " Hah... I miss Shuna and Shion already."
"If you miss them that badly, give it your best to hunt and kill zombies and the zombies factory." Said Kazuma with a pointed look, "Why you guys always leave the killing of zombie factories to me? I can use some help, you know?"
"Besides the fact that your flames are the most effective when dealing with them? I think I leave the killing to you while me and Rimuru deal with the grunts."
"..." Kazuma only stare blankly at Misogi.
"Okay. I admit that I'm too lazy to deal with their fast regeneration." Confessed Misogi truthfully.
"..."
"Besides that, I also didn't want to smell the zombie factory. It smells like rotten eggs!"
"You're really admit it huh?" Sighed Kazuma.
"Okay, back to the track, people. What do you guys think about the form of the next zombie factory?" Rimuru said to change the subject of their conversation, he didn't want Kazuma to suspect that he's too, thinking the same thing as Misogi.
"Hmm... Maybe it'll be like a plane?" Answered Kazuma in thinking pose.
"Why do you think that?" Misogi raised an eyebrow at his answer.
"Yesterday are cargo container on South Korea and a freaking submarine under the ocean. What else it could be? Their form are weirdly shaped either."
"Come to think of it. They also taken the form of fruit when we found them in Indonesia huh? Whoever created these things didn't have a sense of originality." Said Rimuru while scratching his chin. Wondering why they're looking like eatable things.
"Ugh... Don't remind me." Said Misogi while his body shuddered a bit.
Kazuma face turned pale from remembering it, "I cannot think the same ways about grapes and banana again."
"Then think about what your favorite food."
"My favorite food? Damn... I really miss eating rendang..." Misogi said a bit out loud with a bit droll coming out from his mouth.
"If me, I want to eat curry rice. Sadly, there's none the ingredients to make it in my world." Rimuru lamented. His shoulder slumped dejectedly.
"Hey, Misogi don't think about your favorite food now! Look at the compass! It spinning around!"
"Huh? Oh shit."
True to Kazuma words, because of Misogi thinking about food, the Hunter Compass'es needle are going round and round unclearly since a while ago.
'Gotta think about the nearby zombie factory' thought Misogi as he trying to focusing his mind.
Finally, the needle stopped spinning and pointed at the previous direction.
"Phew... Let's not thinking anything else but our task for no-"
As Misogi was about to finish his sentence, he was interupted by a blue holographic screen of MCG's chatroom coming out in front of his face.
Not only him but the same screen interface also appears in front of Kazuma and Rimuru too.
[PriestessofThunder: Misogi-kun! Everyone! Help! We're under attack by an army of alien like beings!]
~~~Half an hour ago~~~
At the Takagi estate, everything was normal.
In her room, Saya Takagi are curiously looking at a golden card depicting an old man wearing a hood and black robes while carying a staff as tall as his body.
"What is this caster class card?" Mumbled Saya as she staring at the card, "Satou said that I should used it if there's emergency situation after giving it to me this morning before he and the other going away. But how can a card solve an emergency?"
After pondering for a while, Saya decided to ask Akeno and Kurumi about this. She then went to the kitchen were Akeno and Kurumi usualy are after breakfast and indeed she find them in there.
"Himejima, Tokisaki. Can I ask you something?"
"Yes? What is it, Takagi-san?" Akeno, whose cleaning the plates with Kurumi stopped her activity and asked Saya.
"Do you both know about class card?" Saya asked to the point.
Kurumi and Akeno exchange glances.
"Yes. We know about it." Kurumi answered, "Why do you ask?"
Saya then showed them the golden caster class card. Seeing the card she held in her hand, Akeno and Kurumi's eyes widened.
"Where did you get that?" Akeno asked sharply.
"Satou giving it to me this morning before he, Kumagawa and tempest going around the world to hunting the zombie factory." Saya answered. Not disturbed by Akeno's sharp tone.
"Kazuma-san give you? I didn't know he got two class card aside from his lancer class card..." Kurumi murmured softly.
"Kazuma-kun said that he spend his all of his saving for gacha and the result are disappointing. Did he lie?" Akeno wondered, then turned to look at the picture of the class card, "Takagi-san, what class card and which heroic spirit is this?"
"Heroic spirit? Satou only told me that this is caster class card but, I didn't given a spesific info since he seemed to hurry to leave." Saya furrowed her brow.
"Then let's try it in the courtyards." Kurumi suggested, looked pretty interested which heroic spirit are this caster class card.
"Before that Kurumi-san, let's finish the dish washing first." Akeno remind her fellow sister but blood.
After both Akeno and Kurumi finished washing the plates, both of them and Saya went to the courtyard to try the caster class card. Greeting the patroling guardsmen a nod when they're passing them.
"By the way. What is heroic spirit?" Saya asked after they arrived at the courtyard
Akeno put her index finger to her chin as she trying to remember the explanation of heroic spirit from fate series by the reincarnator trio.
"Heroic Spirit are spirits of heroes who achieved great deeds in life, in the process having become persons of worship after their deaths." Kurumi answered first.
"Basically they were Heroes who have left behind great feats in legends after death and become subjects of belief." Followed by Akeno.
"You mean like the stuff from legend like Heracles, King Arthur, Siegfried and the likes?" Saya asked with a bit of surprise.
"Yes I believe so. Kazuma-kun's class card are from lancer class card which contain the power of heroic spirit Karna. The son of sun god Surya." Kurumi explained, "Takagi-san, do you know which heroic spirit this card contains?"
Saya tried to remember what Kazuma told her, "I don't know, but before Satou left, he shouted 'Scathach-Skadi' to me. Maybe that's the name of the heroic spirit in this caster class card?"
"Scathach-Skadi? I don't know." Kurumi shook her head.
"I know Scathach is godslayer from Irish mythology and also the master of Cu Chulainn while Skadi is a goddess from norse mythology." Said Akeno who's most familiar with legend and myth in the world.
"So, Scathach and Skadi are different person?" Asked Kurumi.
"I suppose so."
"Then why Satou said their name as in they're are the same person?" Asked Saya with confused expression.
"Well, we don't know about that. So let's try the card already!" Kurumi ignored the mistery and want to see Saya use the class card.
Saya looked at the class card in her hand and then looked at Akeno and Kurumi, "How do I use this?"
"If I remembered correctly, just say 'Install: Phantasm Summon' while holding the class card in you hand." Replied Akeno.
Saya nervously hold the class card in her hand as she trying to say, "I-Install: Phantasm Summon!"
After she said the activation keywords, A blue magic circle appeared bellow her and then Saya's body are engulved in the light coming from the magic circle. Making her outfit changed completely.
Stood in front of Akeno and Kurumi are a girl with red eyes, a dark purple hair lengthening down her back instead of her usual twintailed pink hair. A small, ornamental headpiece adorns her forehead, and she wears a flowing gown in shades of purple and white. The dress has fur accents on the shoulders and around the upper chest area, and sleeves that are long and bell-shaped, flaring out at the wrists. She also wears fitted gloves that extend to her upper arms, blending in the sleeves. The lower half of her gown is designed with slits.
This are Saya in Scathach-Skadi form. When in this form, she can utilize all of Scathach-Skadi frost magecraft ability with primordial rune, even her noble phantasm, Gate of Skye, which summon her castle via territory creation.
"Wow... I can feel the power..." Said Saya in amazed tone, she then summon her wand and pointed it toward a nearby water fountain and it suddenly frozen and encased in a chunk of ice, "Somehow I know how to use all of Scathach-Skadi abilities."
Saya are still in awe of her power while Akeno and Kurumi watched with amused smile as Saya turned what she sees into ice. She looks like a kid after being given a new and fun toy.
Letting Saya experiment with Scathach-Skadi power, Akeno suddenly remembered that there also ice magic user in her home world.
"I wonder whose better and stronger with ice magic, Serafall-sama, Grayfia-san, or Takagi-san in this form?" Wondered Akeno with her index finger touching her chin.
But suddenly.
*Rumble* *Rumble*
There was a sudden earthquake, making the three of them stumble.
"Earthquake?" Said Kurumi, "You also can make an earthquake, Takagi-san?"
Saya shook her head, "N-no I can't."
"Maybe it's the doing of Misogi-kun and the other two when they're going overboard with their power." Akeno suggested, "Misogi-kun indeed erased the entire ocean yesterday afterall."
"Probably they're-"
What Kurumi was about to say was interrupted by a loud sirens with announcement via speaker.
"We're under attack! I repeat, we're under attack!"
"The attacker are not zombies but an army of unknown being!"
"All guards personnel are expected to gear themselves and assist on fending and eliminating the unknow being which approaching this estate at a fast pace!"
Akeno, Kurumi and Saya: "...Huh?"
