Chapter 5

-Last Time-

she raises a brow, "why would I need to go to classes when I could use the time to train my Devil Skills?" it was an honest question since she would be held back by the teachers and other students.

Ozpin smiles, "well, you won't be required to go expect once a week for each class to make sure you understand everything, giving you plenty time to train outside of class." Reficul nods.

"alright, what's this test?" he smiles, "why, you're gonna go through what every other student did, go through initiation." she looks confused for a moment before being told to go prepare for battle in an hour.

-This Time-

Reficul now found herself on a cliff side looking at a forest while she was on a metal plate of some kind, Ozpin was going through the objectives of the Initiation, go in, find an artifact, get back here, seemed simple enough.

"Oh, and one more thing, prepare a landing strategy." and suddenly he took a step to the right to press a button with cause to metal plate under her to fling her into the forest.

"Hmm… should I have told her this is being broadcasted live to the Amphitheater for students to watch?" he muses to himself.

While in the sky Reficul calmly looks towards the ground as she quickly descends towards it, a good 10 meters from impact her wings grow in size and flap to slow her descend so much she slightly floats above the ground, her wings shrink as she lands on the ground.

"Well, mental reminder to punch Ozpin at a later point in time." she looks around, there wasn't anything around her in interest minus a fallen tree.

"Which way was the objective again? north, right?" she waits a second before nodding to herself and heading off towards the north.

After a couple of minutes of mindless wandering she got to a clearing in it were a pact of Beowolfs, "oh, finally something to kill my boredom." she strolls forward and smile at the Grimm, she checks all there health and see that the max was 1,000 HP.

She just aims her gun at them and put 500 MP into the bullet that was fired.

It explodes with great force and she looks at the damage.

- 8,000 HP

She looks at it slightly before realizing she had the multi from Devil Aura's passive which affected her bullets.

"Well, put too much power into that, maybe I shouldn't use my gun at a tenth of its power…" she muses to herself before walking off north once more.

In the Amphitheater all the students watching was shocked by the power of that bullet had in it for those who watched her fight with Cardin and his team knew now she heard back greatly to give them a chance.

All of team RWBY and JNPR were watching, and were amazed by their friends power, but were trying to figure out how she did it.

"It wasn't Dust, she said she put too much power into it, so the power came from her." Weiss reasoned, "but how can someone have so much power?!" everyone agreed while Ren was quiet, Nora poked him so he would speak.

"I believe her Aura acts different from ours, it abandons all type of defense to increase its healing and offensive abilities, it must be the nature of her semblance." they nod, it was the best theory they had on her power for now.

Back in the forest Reficul decided to start flying through the forest to get to her objective, paying no mind to the mass amount of Grimm that followed after her.

Once she got to the a clearing she saw some ruins, it was small but it had an object.

She looks at them before picking a black queen piece and pocketing it… somewhere…?

She turns and see the complete hoard of Grimm that consisted of: 50 Beowolf, 2 Death Stalkers, 1 Nevermore, and five Ursa.

In the Amphitheater people were looking in shock of the enemies, and Team RWBY and JNPR were scared, they could barely handle a nevermore or a Death Stalker, let alone with so many other Grimm!

"How is she going to survive?" Ruby asked Yang, who shrugged.

Reficul used her wings to fly to the skies and decided to take down the Nevermore first.

Flying onto it's back and severing it's wings and stabbing it in the back of the neck caused it to die before impact, but still crushed a good portion of the Beowolfs, she looked down at a Death stalker before dive bombing it with her sword and causing a massive crater where it was.

She jumps into the middle of the Beowolfs and readies her blade, she starts to dodge through the attacks while slicing them up like warm butter, after the Beowolfs were dealt with it was onto the other Death Stalker, which she just shot for 1,000 MP, giving 16,000 HP damage, which is enough to kill it, and turn to fire five 100 MP shots at the Ursa, one bullet each.

They died easily too.

Back with Team RWBY and JNPR, Yang turned to Ruby, "well, that's how she survived it, Sis."

Reficul sighs before sheathing her weapons, she looks up at the sky, thinking about something before the ground rumbles.

The ground breaks apart and out comes a giant beast about half the size of Beacon's tower, she looked up at it in shock before using Devil Flight to get out of its way.

She fully restock her gun while observing the Grimm.

BOSS: Behemoth LV50

HP: 100,000/100,000

AP: N/A

STR: 500

DEX: 20

VIT: 200

INT: 4

WIS: 7

LUK 5

Oh… well damn… it could probably one sho- hold that thought.

She fly out of the way of one of its arms trying to grab her, she aims her gun at it and fire it at 2,500 MP, dealing 40,000 damage right to its face, making it stumble.

She puts the gun away to pretend she ran out of ammo, she readies her blade.

She uses Devil Aura to power up her attack before flying at the beast, it tries to grab her but she lands on top of it's arm and start to slice at it to deal damage, after five slices she had to jump off to avoid being grabbed.

She had just dealt 40,000 extra damage to it, meaning it only had 20,000 left to go until it was dead.

In her thought she was punched by the beast and sent flying into the forest.

- 2,000 HP wow he punches for alot

- 500 HP Ow, tree

- 500 HP Another tree

- 200 HP Did the ground crater slightly?

- 100 HP And that large as graze is leaving a mark... probably not with Gamer's body...

She finally managed to stop herself but looked at her health.

HP: 50/3,350

'OKAY, DON'T GET HIT EVER AGAIN BY THAT THING!'she looks on in fear before gulping and readying her blade.

Devil Aura and Power Strike were active.

She uses Devil Flight to go at it with full speed and swings her blade.

All of the forest in a five km radius were blown off by the sheer force of the swing.

- 512,000 HP

'HOLY! I can do damage like that?' she turns around and looks at the slowly disintegrating Grimm as she falls to the forest floor.

You've defeated you're first boss, have a cookie and 19 level ups.

Her Health regenerated to full so she was now at the point of not dying in one hit.

"I really need to get something to defend myself with…" she muttered as she hit the floor.

Everyone at Beacon were watching with baited breath to see if Reficul would be getting up.

After a full ten seconds and people losing hope she started to sit up, "alright body, up and at em…" she had said, her voice clearly had pain in it, but it was over shadowed by the pure pride in herself she exerted.

Weiss spoke up, "we are, without a doubt, questioning her about her power." everyone nodded.

Reficul made the walk back to the cliff side and flew up it, ending her Initiation.

After a while, and a check up from the School nurse to make sure she was fine she was allowed to leave.

Only to be instantly greeted by Team RWBY and JNPR, who led her to Team RWBY's dorm room and had her sit on one of the beds.

Weiss was the first to speak, "So, mind explaining to us how you did literally everything in your initiation?" Reficul looked confused, "you saw that?" Weiss nods, which Blake spoke up.

"The whole school saw it." Reficul looked slightly alarmed by that, but decided to answer them, "well, unlike your Aura, I use an energy called Mana, it is far more Manipulative and destructive then Aura is, that's how I did most of the things you saw."

They nod slightly, confused about something, "and why haven't we heard of 'Mana' before?" Weiss stressed the word to see how it sounded from herself, the question made Reficul think.

"I'm not sure, I've just always had it but I didn't know people didn't know of it until yesterday, so sorry, I can't answer that question." she sighs before Blake asked another question, "and what are you? there are no records of a Bat Faunus before, or even a Goat Faunus, much less the two combined."

"Oh, I am what is called a 'Devil'." everyone goes dead silent for a few seconds before Jaune spoke, "i-I'm sorry, my hearing must be faulty, did you just say you were a Devil?" Reficul nods, "yep, that is what I said. although I would appreciate if you kept it a secret."

Yang spoke up, "wait, that means you made a pun yesterday, when you said 'why not dance with the devil', I am so proud of you because that was a really good pun." Reficul nods to her with a slight smile, "yes, although now that you know my little secret, I imagine the pun's will get annoying soon enough."

They stay quiet for a few seconds, before Ruby speaks up, "so… you like, eat bad people or something?" Reficul looks at her in confusion, "uh, what?" "eating bad people, isnt that what devil's do?"

Reficul shrugs, "I don't really know, I barely remember my life before a few days when we met in the red forest, all I know is what I can do as a Devil and some basic information."

Ren speaks up, "so you have Amnesia?" she nods to him, after a few minutes Jaune speaks up, "so what happens now?" the Devil girl just shrugs.

"Nothing really, I'm pretty chill about being a Devil, just don't go telling everyone about it, Ozpin and I made a deal that I can only tell people if they ask me about it." they all nod, if alittle unnerved, Reficul thinks for a moment.

"Hmm, how about I try and help you all train as a sign of good will?" that got their interest, "training in what?" Reficul shrugs, "well, I can't just give you Mana, so my techniques are out the window, but I could help you with battle experience and physical training, unless you want me to try helping you with your Aura, since I do have an ability to see it."

That got their attention even more, Weiss spoke up, "you can see Aura?" Reficul nods, "yes, but only if I focus my eyes to do so."

They start to talk about training for abit before parting ways for the day, tomorrow was a day off for the students to recover from the shock of the giant Grimm, so they'd begin training then.

Reficul looked at her stats.

All things considered, she was pretty happy with her current build, a Battle mage build was insanely powerful if you had a lot of buffs.

She decided to Meditate while training Devil Aura, for the rest of the day, just to see what happens if she maxed a skill.

After about five hours of doing that she finally maxed out the skill.
