New People And Old Truth

Entry 153:

Linus Ozias POV:

The figure, now revealed, looks at me and says, "Servant Lancer. My name is Karna. It is an honor to meet all of you." I then walk up to him and take his hand in a handshake. "I greet you, Karna, and welcome you to Chaldea."

Karna then bows as he says, "It is an honor to be welcomed by a being such as yourself, but I may ask why a god is aiding humanity so openly?"

I simply respond by saying, "Because I was once human myself and became a god through various circumstances, but I will always view myself as human." (He placed a small sound-canceling barrier when he said that.)

This statement makes the man smile ever so slightly as he says, "You are an interesting existence. But I do hope we may spar as it has been a long time since I have fought a god." I then establish the contract, and I can feel the drain on my magic to hold this one servant, but I then cheat and place empowering charges into magic generation, control, divinity generation, and improving the output of my archmage reactor.

Luckily, my magic control is so powerful even this massive increase in my magic is not sensed, and now I can power multiple universes worth of servants, and the drain from my various servants becomes like drops in an ever-expanding ocean as my shattered limiter increases my magic reserves just by existing.

Karna looks almost amazed at the fact that he is at full power, as his one weakness is that none of his previous Masters were able to hold his existence entirely due to their lack of magic. He would literally kill them, as his Noble Phantasms are just that strong.

For reference, Karna was one of the strongest warriors in Hindu myth and only died after giving up his weapons and armor to Indra and was only felled by Arjuna using a divine weapon after being cursed multiple times. This man is the embodiment of willpower. Such a thought brings to mind that if this guy became a Green Lantern, he could power the entire Lantern Corps by himself. 

Karna then says, almost impressed, "I feel as if I can fully use my noble phantasms multiple times, and I feel as if this is only the tip of the spear. I look forward to seeing this fight through."

The legend then walks over to the side of the room as Ritsuka walks up to the circle, smiling confidently as Karna asks, "Master, who is that woman?" I then look at him and say, "She is Ritsuka Fujimaru Chaldea's master candidate, 48, while I am 49. The man nods as he is constantly in deep thought.

Ritsuka then says her chant and, as I expected, summons mapo tofu and more black keys seven times, but then, on the last one, a servant is not summoned but a cube that looks like it is constantly shifting and rewriting itself and then I recognize it and pick it and immediately place it in a containment device so that this device is not only separate from any technological systems but from reality itself.

Ritsuka then asks, surprised, "Oz, what was that?" I shake my head and say, "Well, my friend, that was a robot from the moon cell." Ritsuka and the others, excluding Karna, look confused as I say, "The moon cell is quite literally a supercomputer inside the Moon that, if controlled and used at its maximum capacity, has the ability to manipulate reality and create its own digital worlds. Luckily, it seems like the moon cell in our world has been deactivated due to the incineration of humanity."

Olga then says [Oz, did you say our Moon is a giant supercomputer that can use magic?] I nod as I hear Olga simply drink what I hope is coffee, and Roman asks [Ozzy, how did you know about this moon cell as it's technology from another dimension parallel to our own?]

I explain, "I'm going to have to tell you guys about that later as I have to make sure this device does not infect our technology. Ritsuka, I apologize for today's summons, but I need to go."

Mash and Ritsuka nod as I go to my lab and lock this device away in a vault used to house warp demons and tech priests corrupted by chaos in Warhammer, as it not only locks devices from any signals but also reality, time, and space.

I sigh in relief as I lock the vault in another vault only I can open within a pocket dimension. Even now, that may not be enough as the moon cell is terrifyingly powerful at its full might as it is quite literally a reality-warping supercomputer that allows anyone in control of it to become God, basically.

And from what I remember, there are things to worry about from that supercomputer, but I can't recall whether it's just an instinct that this thing needs to be locked away along with anything else summoned from it. For now, it is contained even though the cube has two letters on it: BB.

I can recall the servant with that name but not the details. It is frustrating, but for now, that is something to worry about later, as the moon festival is tomorrow. I exit the lab to find the others looking at me. 

Before I can do anything, they take me to the cafe, which has been turned into a courtroom of sorts as Olga, with a judge robe, says, "I call this court into session, Linus Ozias, you have been found having knowledge of other timelines how do you plead?"

I am so confused. I look to Ritsuka, who is on the jury, as she waves at me as I say, "I plead guilty, I guess?" Olga slams her gavel as she says, "As punishment, you must give us your back story to establish a firm trust. This ruling is non-negotiable."

Romani yells, "Objection! One's story is precious to them, and my client has only aided us and saved you and should tell us when he is ready." Olga then says, "Overruled! While yes, your client has helped us, we deserve to know."

Before Romani can defend me, Olga says, "If you remain silent, I will allow you to watch more Magi Mari." Romani then sighs and says, "I apologize, Oz, but it's too good of a deal, and it's just good business." I simply deadpan as I am called to the stand.

I realize that now is the time, but before doing so, I ask, "Before I begin, may I ask this to remain private between us all via Geas?" Olga then nods and says, "That is acceptable, as the information you may reveal could be used against us should we not do so."

I smile and create a contract that will not allow them to speak of anything that leaves this room. I've already disabled the cameras and other sensors as I entered the room, so there are no means that any information can leave this room, but I do realize I should tell them part of my backstory.

They all sign, which includes all the servants present, and I begin, "Well, To begin, I would like to say that I have not lied about my name nor my identity, but in regards to my full story, well, this is going to sound insane."

As I began to tell them my tale, I began with how I arrived in this world. "In the simplest way, I can say this: I simply took control of my other self as due to Multiverse Theory, there exists a version of us across every single universe with every single possibility, and both Gaia and Alaya asked me to aid all of you in this Grand Order. I was not told who threatens the human order, but I have been creating my own theories from everything we have learned so far."

Olga then says, shocked, "So you saw the root? Is that how you learned of other timelines?" I nod as it is not a lie, as I have seen it in the anime and visual novel, of course. This sends a gasp across the room. I continue, "My true form that some of you have witnessed within my reality marble is but a part of my existence." I then created the reality marble that now resembles a combination of heaven and my various other creations.

"I am not only Linus Ozias but Anakim, Archangel of Control from another world. I was asked by the authorities of this world to help save the human order from a threat even they could not foresee." I put on display the full might of my power, and I simply do not hold back as while currently I may only use half of my power, it is enough to be felt across the universe of my reality marble.

The news sends ripples through the servants with various emotions as some look on in reverence, others in intrigue, and some in lust and almost hatred. 

The hatred is seemingly coming from Medusa, but she can keep it under wraps as the Gods cursed her and her sisters, so she may despise me. Karna remains steadfast, if not excited, for a fight.

Surprisingly enough, Da Vinci asks, "So that is how you have such advanced technology from the libraries of Heaven?" I shake my head and say, "That is but a part of the answer, as my technology comes from other worlds themselves. Due to my nature as a walker of worlds, I have seen much. I may not have been able to interact with these worlds, but I learned so much."

Romani then asks, "What of God? Where is he in all of this?" I then sigh and say, "Nowhere and everywhere, for he always exists in some form or another. He is not here because he cannot interfere directly as per his agreement with the root ."

Jeanne then asks, "So the Lord is watching right now?" I nod and say, "Yes, he is, and that is why he sent me here with permission from Gaia and Alaya to aid all of you, and while he may not interfere as it goes against his design, he can aid in other ways." This again is true as ROB can be considered God in a way and can help by sending me, and I am watching right now.

I cancel the reality marble as we return to the cafe, with Olga saying, "This court is adjourned, but the accused shall see me in private." Everyone leaves to take in what was just learned. I follow Olga into her office as she asks, "Did you know? Was I supposed to die in that singularity?"

I nod as she asks shakily, "Will you disappear when the job is done?" I take her in my arms as I state, "You misunderstand Olga as I will not be disappearing once this job is done, and it will not be done for a while as we angels are allowed free reign once our jobs are done, only to be called upon in certain circumstances. Even now, I am currently in many places across different realities."

Olga then, with a more confident tone, says, "So that is why you took human form? Since you are in so many places at once, you are limited?" Not really, but I can use this. "In a way, yes, but know this, Olga, I am not going anywhere. The world has not abandoned you, nor will I."

The director then smiles and says, "I did not know Angels excelled in saying such corny lines." I laugh as I say, "Well, these corny lines have gotten me a decent amount of admirers." Olga then takes me by the head and says, "And who may I ask are these admirers?"

I am getting yandere vibes as I then remember the fact that since I created Olga's body, the Tinker of fiction is acting to make her more loyal to me, which is seemingly reacting to her emotional state. I then sigh and think to myself, "I may have made a huge mistake."

( I apologize if this back story was a bit annoying as I tried to reveal as little information as I could while also having enough information said for them to trust him. Remember, this is the Fate universe people do not trust very easily unless it's specifically stated in their personality. I hope what I revealed doesn't make you all bring up the pitchforks and torches. Now pray for the fact that my main character may have to deal with a Yandere director.)
