Recruiting Zealot Girl

~~~~~~Floating Paradise 'Cacoon'~~~~~~

Ruby with Weiss looked around with wonder, as they were looking around at the beauty of the floating paradise knows simply as Cacoon.

The Gothic Lolita decided to go with him to the mecha verse, still he doesn't know how much she will fight back in a war-like situation against other people.

He is willing to take her anyway, as she needs to grow up before ascending to a higher realm of existence.

"This is amazing! H-How they build buildings like that!?!" Weiss asked Raynor and Serah who was with them.

The most amusing sight though was his lovely assistant who was staring at the city of Bodrum with a slighly opened mouth.

"No idea Weiss, but most if not everything is created by Fal'Cie. So, you could say that raw materials are created by magic."

The white-haired girl's eyes widened, she understood what this means!

"Now, now don't dig deeply into that, we are not here for that."

Weiss mouth closed before she can say anything, she slowly nodded at him.

"There is no rush Weiss, you will learn everything in due time, I am not going to keep things from you. Since I rule this place, Fal'Cie fall under my rule, once you are powerful enough you will know everything about them," Raynor explained with a smile and the white-haired girl slowly nodded, he did make a valid point, still seeing all this made her very excited.

She only needed to look at her partner to realise that she behaved just like her, as Ruby is looking around like an excited child who ate a couple of kilos of sweets.

Weiss almost facepalmed and groaned realising that...

*Giggle*

"Don't worry I was quite in a similar situation when I saw Earth, especially the stars in the night sky, not to mention stars in Primal Chaos..." Serah said while remembering her first time travelling to those places.

The white-haired girl nodded at her, Primal Chaos is something else...

She only saw a minuscular amount of it, which is the sect grounds but it was enough to understand in what kind of place she was.

"Right Serah, take girls for some shopping, get some swimming suits for them, we will be spending a day on the beach."

"W-What? I-I thought we will pick up a military officer for an adventure!?" Weiss shuttered hearing that.

"Well duh, but it going to take time for her to prepare all the stuff, and we will pick her up tomorrow morning." Raynor explained to her, with a 'duh' look.

"We are not rushing anywhere, time is something which we have in spades."

He then looked at Mu Feixue.

"Go with them dear, I want you in a swimsuit for this."

His assistant eyes widened, she then remembered what is a swimsuit, that moment her cheeks exploded in colour pink.

"A-As you wish master."

"Great! Sarah, why don't you show them the shopping district?"

Serah smiled hearing that, she wants to see that Ice girl blushing and flustered just as much as Raynor wants to...

"Sure thing! let's go girls and have some fun!" The Pink-haired goddess grabbed Feixue hand and pulled her towards the shopping district.

Both Ruby and Weiss looked at each other, then at Raynor, and eventually at Arno who was Yang.

"Just go you two I will explore this city with Arno," Yang said to the duo.

"Alright, I suppose It will be interesting to shop in a God build floating utopia." The white-haired girl said with a strained smile, hearing those words coming from her own mouth can be already considered cringe if not the fact it was the reality she was in right now was exactly what she just said.

"Yeah you two do that and we will meet you at the beach."

Weiss and Ruby nodded they went with Serah and Feixue.

"Right, here is some spending money, while I will go and inform Jihl about this adventure." Raynor threw a golden master card with an infinity symbol on it.

Once Arno caught it, his eyebrow slighly went up when he saw the symbol it.

"Just don't mess up the economy with this..." The Primordial Dragon said before his blonde friend can respond.

"...Does credit cards still exist in this place?" Arno asked with a confused face.

"Nope, they didn't, but then I snapped my fingers and they are back." Raynor shrugged at his blond friend.

"Yes of course... stupid of me to ask such stuff." Arno pocketed the card before saying that.

"Yeah, anyway just go and have some fun, while I going to met Jihl." Raynor motioned for them to get going while he looked at the sky where Eden is.

Moments later he appeared in front of a very large white building, it was PSICOM headquarters.

While the place is amazing looking right now it's experiencing a monumental change, which is its repurposing.

The special forces of PSICOM are being closed down and absorbed by Guardian Corp.

So, it has many people walking around, moving things same time bringing in new stuff as this place will be the new headquarters of the Guardian Corp.

"So, this is the reality where you picked up Farron sisters." Raynor turned his head and saw Restia curiously looking around.

The Darkness spirit was very impressed how the place looks like!

Final Fantasy XIII can be considered a heavy fantasy game, and it's reflected in its buildings and technology.

So, everything was very interesting to the spirit from a medieval-like reality.

"Yes, now let's go." He motioned her to follow him, Restia did that by grabbing his hand.

Raynor just rolled his eyes and squeezed her hand, a very positive shiver went through the Darkness spirit body, she enjoys basking in her master energy.

'It's something to do with the contract that spirits from Blade Dance reality can pop up like that.' Raynor thought with a twitchy smile, not that he doesn't mind when Restia or Est just pops up like that.

While The Primordial Dragon is thinking about the spirits ability to pop up like that, Restia was thinking about her great situation!

'Hei'an and Xue Ji can pamper that steel spirit as much as they like while I enjoy quality time with master~~~!' She hummed happily as she hugged her master hand now.

Raynor just rolled his eyes seeing happy Restia, someone already was having fun!

~~~

Jihl Nabaat the leader of PSICOM was shocked and elated when some of her soldiers (minions) rushed in and told her that HE was in the building and walking towards her office.

Not only that was baffling, because only yesterday she talked with him, now he already looking for her!?

She was expecting it at least a week after! But, this...

This... is good!

The quicker she can serve her God the better!

The Blonde quickly made sure she looked presentable and awaited his imminent arrival.

Few seconds later she heard one of the panicking soldiers of PSICOM opening doors into her office.

Jihl made sure that everyone in her soon non-existing branch of military knows that Raynor Valeron is, he is a being one should not mess with.

And her soldiers knew that better than anything.

The moment she saw him enter her office she felt butterflies go off in her stomach.

"Your Excellency, how may I help you?" She asked respectfully, the blonde noticed a girl dressed in a dark dress, she was holding Raynor's hand.

Her instincts telling her that's this girl is not that simple, no one who is with her God is simple.

"Hello Jihl, how have you been?" Raynor asked her as he walked into her office.

"I have been fine, thank you for asking, Your Excellency "

The Primordial Dragon hummed hearing that, he then went straight to the point of why he was here.

"Good to hear, I need your expertise in something."

He instantly piqued her interest, the quicker she starts to serve him the better!

"Of course! I did asked if I can serve you!" She could barely hide her happiness when she heard that.

Seeing how happy she was Raynor could only smile while Restia looked curiously at all of this.

'Those kind of people are scariest of them all.' Restia thought to herself, she has seen many loyal spirits in Ren Ashdoll army before, and the scariest ones always were the one's similar to this woman...

Zealots... people who don't question orders no matter what, and try to accomplish them to the ladder and maximum efficiency.

"Wonderful, I will come to pick you up tomorrow morning, so be ready." After saying that he turned around and just disappeared like he never was there before, to begin with.

Once he was gone Jihl lost her professional face and squealed like a little girl from excitement.

"YES! Finally, I will serve a worthy being!" She nearly dance but then got herself together.

The blonde remembered that he will need her expertise, which is command an army and organising operations.

The beauty quickly started to go through things like army training, logistics and many other things, double and even triple-checking.

There is a reason why Jihl Nabaat become Colonel Commander at early age...

~~~~~~With Raynor~~~~~~

After talking with Jihl, Restia pulled Raynor to the shopping district on Eden, the capital of Cocoon is much different than Bodrum which is a resort city.

"Let's go, this is the capital right!? let's go and explore!" the Darkness spirit said with barely hidden giddiness.

"Sure, last time I was here I took over and just went back to Bodrum, the beach was far too good to pass." Raynor slightly got affected by Restia's excitement and agreed with her.

"I think I heard from Lightning that one, you used a Primordial Wolf on these poor mortals..." The Darkness spirit said with fake pitying voice.

"Something like that..." He shrugged while not explaining in detail, it was still a sour point for him that some pathetic Fal'Cie saw through him, those things are incredibly weird 'existence', only Final Fantasy reality can come up with these things.

"Now, now, I can sense that it's the sour thing for you, so I won't going to ask, instead tell me about this... girl we picking up." For a second she remembered what zealots can do.

"I thought we going to collect large machines to play with?" She asked curiously while looking around the shopping district.

"There is more to that, Jihl can whip up an army of mortals for me, while core goal is getting the Gundams, we going into a war-torn reality, so we will end up controlling a nation or two, Jihl will control and train army for me, while I can focus on collecting things," Raynor explained to her while looking at stuff as well, he is thinking of getting some trinkets for his girls.

"Don't you have a sect? why you need more... soldiers?" She asked with an eye roll.

"Because they are not usable in such fragile realities Restia, a Divine Origin can easily rip whole space-time continuum of regular reality." He explained to the clueless sword spirit.

"They are good for cultivation realities, but not for regular ones we planning to visit, that why I need regular mortal army who can use guns and not guys who can flip mountains and sever oceans with simple hand motion."

Once more the Darkness spirit rolled her eyes.

"If you say so..."

~~~

After that Raynor with Restia spend a few hours shopping and buying whatever got their fancy, once they got bored they returned to Bodrum.

Eventually, they ended up meeting with Serah, she was waiting for them.

"Ray! well did you got that PSICOM commander recruited?" Serah asked curiously, the girls no longer paid attention when Restia or Est just pop out of nowhere, it would be more shocking if his asura spirit would be among them than the sword spirits.

"Yep, she is very happy with this new job," Raynor said with a smile, before looking around for Feixue.

Serah noticed his look, the pink-haired Goddess started to smirk.

"We spend quite some time picking the RIGHT suit for your assistant." She said with a proud look, Raynor can see that she is proud of what she has accomplished.

"Good, let's see the results of your endeavour."

Younger Farron nodded and then motioned for him to follow her.

Not long after he could hear several guys talking in gushed voices about a very beautiful woman on the beach.

'How little did these guys know.' He internally shook his head.

Not long after that Raynor with Serah and Restia arrived at the spot where the girl had their 'camp' set up for today's outing.

Raynor eyes went to very uncomfortable looking Mu Feixue, she was dressed in a white two-piece bikini which makes whe whole male population of the beach turn their heads.

He can even see several very annoyed woman who are pissed off at their men for blatant staring.

'Heh, this going to be an amusing day...'
