Reflection and Gleight up

*???*

NrR a.k.a Nanekluh ref Rednialsig. Its the name belong to a persona dwell within Zeimachi.

At first this persona is to be modeled after Otto Apocalypse and also Kyojuro Rengoku, because of how cunning Otto is also how big his effort to gain Kallen Kaslana back, and from Kyoujuro Rengoku from how his "UMAI." sound and his conviction stay as he fight Akaza.

Both of them can be said to have a characters traits which support each other as when I see Otto Apocalypse before he loss Kallen Kalsana, and Kyoujuro Rengoku when he's still gaining foundation to became a flame pillar/hashira worthy of his father haori.

Though in the end both of them died for their own belief.

"Both of them have their own charm. Isn't that what you mean ▀▀▀▀? Be it that Otto or Rengoku, and their traits."

Don't read the narration.

"Strict as always I see. It seems like now is Als' turn to go. He's not the best as a man, but don't hate him too much."

Similar to El Dust, he don't have any body re-shaping or avatar change for main body, like when Sengoku appeared. In exchange those traits are inherited to their weapon, though in this arc they'll use their weapon as how it is.

"...Ahh~ Wait Lia don't grab my hand like that, the cream will not balanced on other side."

...

"Oh? We're creating cake right here. Lia is with me, as for Bell and others, they're enjoying a party with Hestia."

I see.

"If I'm not wrong its about Haruhime joining in."

Is that so.

"You really getting on my nerve ▀▀▀▀... Ah Lia want to talk with you, can you do that again? Its not like you haven't recovered right?"

I need more time, and the same as you too.

"Well...maybe I'll try to consoled her for now, you owe me one. Right after this party end we'll depart from this world, there's not much difference anyway."

What did you do.

"Not much? I don't want to play with others scenario afterall, Lia maybe different from me because she spent more time here. Let me ask her now."

...

Let me continue, what was it again...Ah yeah.

About Nanekluh ref Rednialsig, just like what Cera said he have a nickname because of how hard his name to be said. Like how Zeimachi called him Gislainder or when El Dust called him Als.

He's the one who used that Black ball of stars which could be used as terminal to transfer things between his world, to accelerate 'spell', and other things which is not showed yet.

And finally the reason of why I created this chapter, basically its because of his limited screen time are. Both El Dust and Sengoku got first appearance not like the three of them, so to not repeat this mistake again I wrote this.

The other reason is also of how his character which combined from Otto Apocalypse and Kyojuro Rengoku wouldn't end well, but will that stop me? Who knows.

In the end Zeimachi'll not be disturbed by any of that, so this story can keep going on.

With that being said, let's take a look at how Yjor fared in the void with Ayanami, Javelin, Laffey and Z23 goes.

"..."

What.

"Ah nothing, I've talked with Lia, she said if she'll prepare special Ice cream cake for you. She got dejected when I told her your reason but thanks to me because of how I can handle it and made her happy again."

Thank you.

"He~ You can thank me later ▀▀▀▀ , be sure to talk with her later and I'll have my fun too with Zei later hahaha!"

Good for you.

"...Yep, and also good for me to knows you're slowly getting in to this side. When will you come?"

...

"..."

...

"...So its still a no..."

-----------------------------

Afterwards with spare body in use, Zeimachi continued on his other journey.

For extra detail, this body is a kind of spare body created by him using different world's law. Such as cloning technology, alchemy, or other bio manipulation technique. It doesn't have any noticeable difference from the main body because he doesn't want it to be a dress-up doll like what Cera did.

This one body don't have any special spec other than its power to link with the soul. As the same body any human have, this body could match the soul of those reside inside of it.

Though its power at first is not much greater than an adult, as long this body adapt to soul inside of it, it will later gain great power according to their soul.

As for the concept such as 'How much soul?', 'Cera's identity', 'Strength equal soul' ,etc are not the focus of this story.

...

....

.....

It's not a long journey, like, he just visited Stile and went away without paying his drink. Although he had some regrets about drinking it, but it was free which was delicious, so he drank it.

He erased all of his memories inside of them he met which was the same as he did with those in School Life arc. However, because he got the preemptive move to never made a move, all of future's probability in that world with him are cut off.

He decided to take a last look at this city and did some window shopping, he can stole anything without breaking sweat, but after his mood plummeted down he lost any motivation to do that.

Its easy to move with the feather's power, but he also pay attention to any lens he could saw.

He visited places such as electronics stores, clothing stores, bakeries, ACG stores, supermarkets, cosplay shops, and big mall.

"..."

At the end of his travel, he went inside of a public bathroom and opened second door from the entrance, and with that he entered the portal that'll connect him to the void.

He didn't forgot to unlock it again before he gone, and put the cup he used to the trash bin.

...

....

.....

*In the void*

This is the void, not a vacuum room as it can be used to be a living place yet it was called as the void.

When he entered back into this place, feathers glows as if they greet him. Everywhere he see there's only feathers filled this place and in the middle of those feathers, there's a flashy sofa somewhere along with four figure slept on it.

"..."

Zeimachi walks till he reached them, the feathers moves away from being stepped and paved him a way.

When he reached that sofa he can get a better view of four ship girls sleeping comfortably side by side.

There's no negative feelings comes out from them, they just sleep soundly at this sofa Cera created from before.

He take a seat at the table in front of it and noticed a golden glass rested or sandwiched between those girls sleeping posture, but this scene is not his main focus as there's a pair of eyes watching him with the person holding that glass.

"...Go back to sleep."

"...Okay...welcome back Commander."

The girl with bunny ears fell back to her sleep as she searched for a better comfy pose between another girls chest.

"...Like I said, I ain't your commander."

He comb his hair as he said that.

Zeimachi fell silent as he watches them, this is one of the result he can see and a good one, but that means there's another bad result which just being realized right now.

"...I should've got my bag too."

As he turned his head to another way, there's another being shows her existence beside him on the table.

"...Sup."

"...*Hiss*."

They faced somewhere far away without meeting eyes. Be it Zeimachi or Yjor stand firm on their ground.

"...How's your day?"

"*Hiss*."

"Same dude, its a rough day."

"..."

"..."

Their conversation stopped.

While both of them do a battle of wits, Laffey who pretend to sleep heard this conversation.

'...Commander in trouble...but sleepy...so cancel.'

Now she fell back to sleep for real, hugging that golden glass.

...

....

.....

Zeimachi and Yjor faced somewhere far onto the void, there's nothing over there but feathers lied vast, and also a bundle of feathers Laffey used from before.

"Hey snake."

"What human?"

"Did you created that?"

"Where's your proof?"

"You asking for proof is the proof."

"And you think such proof is really needed."

"Because you asked for proof which means the proof is important."

"So show me where is it. Just me asking the proof is not a concrete proof."

"So you acknowledged it then."

"And where's your proof of that."

"..."

"*Hiss*."

"..."

"..."

"...Are you in bad mood or something?"

"Shut up and don't talk to me."

"Tsundere."

"Fool."

Yjor and Zeimachi, it seems like they are in each other tail from this conversation. Because of how Yjor being fed up with Zeimachi while on the other hand Zeimachi who liked to teased a tsundere.

Before Zeimachi arrived in this place, Yjor is the one who act as the host of the void for the four ship girls, not like he's the host of it though.

She's been used to it with how much higher being who came to this place searching for Cera who's known for them as the 'guide'.

If we've to dwell into her background, she's been with Zeimachi longer than Cera, still, she was nothing more than a lump of black spherical object at that time,with no consciousness too. Cera arrived in the void not long after that.

"Are those girls gives you too much trouble to handle?"

"..."

"Just tell me Yjor, your madam is not here either."

"...Don't call my name."

"Alright Snake."

"..."

"Snake? Heyyy Snake?"

"Do it once more time."

"A'ight Yjor."

This time Zeimachi gained point and Yjor loses one. They act as if nothing happened and continued to watch the feathers pillow made by Laffey floats onto their way.

After the pillow reached the table which they seated on, Zeimachi picked it up and disentangle it from its former shape. The feathers fly on top of their head and stuck to their body, some of them also flew to those shipgirls way as if they knew of their own inhabitant.

But Zeimachi didn't let it be for a long time, he act quickly and take them back to the void. If those feathers were to be left do what they want, another bothersome situation will happen to them.

"To think they followed me till this place, I guess they'll comply to any mission and order as a weapon of war from now on."

"..."

"What do you think Snake!?"

Zeimachi who have done placing those feathers to their position asked her opinion about them. Be it those shipgirls or that giant Fenghuang Down symbol.

"Human...You're mediocore."

"What you said about this?!!! This is art, look at how I copy the original one!"

Zeimachi did not tolerate her notion to his Fenghuang Down-made symbol, if you don't remember, he's suck at drawing.

"...For those girls...they're not bad at all, you can marry them and even have children with them, I throw you my blessing of mechanization."

"What you mean by that blessing?"

While Yjor take this chance to corner him back, Zeimachi comply and heard her explanation even though he know about her intention.

"Now kiss your bride, you can pick one of them or all of them. Do enjoy their sleepy posture as you taste their body."

Yjor finished her moves with that and wait for Zeimachi reaction.

"...Ah! Hello Javelin, Ayanami oh Zed you already woke up too!"

Zimachi waved to those behind Yjor, but she still didn't believe him after all those tricks he has shown her. She stand tall in her snake's body, and looking down at him.

"You can't defeat me-"

Zeimachi who knows about this premonition cut in, in the middle of her sentence.

"I know, but she can."

He point behind her with an index finger.

Yjor turns around to meet the face of one sleeping girls,one shy girls who hide her faces and giggling happily, while the other one with horns silently hold her cheeks flushed red with her mind goes somewhere.

"Yjor-san."

Z23 tried to be calm as possible with Yjor, as she know little of her.

"What? Do you want to enjoy him with your friends?"

Yjor asked her with a clear tone , in fact she's waiting for Zeimachi's reaction when he knew, if his plan is ruined.

"W-We're not in that relationship w-with c-commander, so please don't misunderstand it."

Z23 hide her embarrassment from her face with a hand on her mouth.

"But you'll not reject him if he asked that right? Hey hey 'C-O-M-M-A-N-D-E-R' why don't you tell them already about the things we talked before, which one you'd like to marry first?"

"Ehh?! C-Commander is?!"

Z23 shocked.

"Ayanami...If commander..."

She still rubbing her cheeks which are touched by him.

"Hwawawa...Commander would...with Javelin...U-Uuuhhh...."

Javelin can't hold her feelings from her heart as she buried her face to the sofa.

"zzzz...Hmm...What's going on? Javelin, stop shaking it."

And Laffey who got awoken from her sleep with Javelin shakes the sofa.

A loud chattering stab his ear with many sounds asked for his statement. He knows this would happen if he let her do her thing, from how the feather pillow, those girls opening their eyes while he distract her, and this situation.

But he let it happen as this is also...

How he enjoy the victory and a draw.
