51 Traveling to other worlds

Neo looked at the System notifications being displayed in chat. On top of that, she was pretty sure she saw virtual confetti flying down the screen.

[Rewards distributing!]

[Neo² receives: 100,000 shop points! Raiju Bloodline! A+ rank Noble Phantasm: Gram!]

"Momma likes.." Neo said with a greedy cackle.

[Yangsyummymummy receives: 100,000 shop points! Golden Crow Bloodline! A rank Noble Phantasm: Hrunting!]

Raven raised her brow at the rewards. She wasn't sure what two of them were but she could buy something pretty ludicrous from the shop with that many points.

[BoobaphysicsFTW receives: 100,000 shop points! Haetae Bloodline! ? Rank Noble Phantasm: Ig-Alima!]

If Neo were drinking anything, it would have been spat out all over the floor at that moment. Shizuka got the 'Fuck you, Mountains' sword. Why? What kind of absurd strength does she need to wield that thing?

[Prettykitty receives: 100,000 shop points! Nemean Lion Bloodline! ? Rank Skill: Tsubame Gaeshi]

"What the FUCK that's absurd! Oh my god can her CLONES do it too!?" Neo asked with a frightened tone.

[Spartanwaifu receives: 100,000 shop points! Phoenix Bloodline! B rank Noble Phantasm: God Hand!]

Neo almost fainted. Wasn't Pyrrha damn near immortal now? She was happy but this was like consecutively winning the jackpot.

[Icecreamwaifu receives: 100,000 shop points! Lilith Bloodline! B rank Noble Phantasm: Ascalon!]

"Lilith..? That implies OG would be-" But Neo was cut off when Neopolitan touched her shoulder.

They all began to change in subtle, to more dramatic ways. Raven's hair tips turned a fiery golden. Blake's hair lengthened to her knees and appeared wilder. Pyrrha's aura took on a brighter golden hue while her pupils turned a stunning rose gold color. Shizuka's blonde hair was replaced by a silver color at the roots of her hair and spread to cover down to her ears before it became blonde again and her bottom canines lengthened a tiny bit. Neopolitan's horns now had a pink and white glow in the gaps while her succubus wings multiplied, now having two sets. Neo's pupils changed to look like cross-slits, while her aura itself was charged with electricity.

Neo checked everyone out and smirked. They all looked either confused or in awe. They could suppress their bloodlines and look normal again at will but apart from Neo, Neopolitan, Raven and Blake, who had experience having different forms, it would take some practice for Pyrrha and Shizuka.

"That was an interesting turn of events.." Ozpin chimed in with an intrigued expression.

"Yeah now that it's over I can explain. I'd rather do it while everyone is present though. You and our teams deserve to know at least. For now! Let's just focus on getting the Grimm out and taking care of the dead" Neo finished with a weary sigh before storing the True Longinus on the floor in her inventory.

All that was left on the ground where Salem existed were the three relics and a huge hole. Scratching her head, Neo thought about everything she would eventually tell her friends and love interests and sighed.

-Three days later, Beacon dorm-

It was a long three days. Vale was still rebuilding from the destruction caused by the attacks. The clearing of Grimm was actually the easy part. They hadn't lost all hatred of humanity and Faunus but a large amount was dispelled upon Salem's death. They'd rather flee from a fight with humans they wouldn't beat than stay and die. It seems their survival instincts were suppressed by Salem.

The White Fang who hadn't helped defend Vale were arrested, while the ones who had were pardoned. The rebuilding of Vale would take a few weeks but things were already looking better. They had all returned from the funeral of those who perished in the attack and met in JNPR's room, for an announcement Neo was making.

The only thing was.. Neo had not been expecting CFVY, Penny, Qrow, Ozpin, Jaune, Glynda, Mercury, Roman, Emerald and Cinder to gather in her room as well. She expected RWBY, her team, Raven and Shizuka but the extras made the room cramped. She felt like she was performing when she stood in front of them all and told them what she was, that she used to be a guy, traveling to other worlds and 'defeating' disruptive reincarnators.

"So that's what I am. Blake, OG, Pyrrha, Raven, Shizuka are involved in the chatroom stuff too. Any.. questions?" Yang raised her hand immediately.

"I'm not a teacher, Yang, just ask" Neo resisted the urge to laugh at her contemplative expression.

"So.. do you still have a dick?" Yang asked with a sharp gleam in her eyes.

"No, she doesn't" Pyrrha confidently stated before Neo could get a word out.

Neopolitan nodded her head sagely with a grin. Raven rolled her eyes at Yang's question. The rest all had varying expressions from embarrassment, annoyance, amusement and indifference.

"Why do you sound so sure, P-money?" Yang asked with a huge grin and fought down the tinge of pink on her cheeks.

"Well I WAS the first to make love to her" Pyrrha said with a proud smile.

"I.. er.. um.." Yang deflated as Blake's expression intensified.

"The sex questions can be asked when the others leave the room.." Neo facepalmed.

"I have a question then. Are you sure that this 'Michael' is a genuine good God?" Ozpin asked while taking a sip from his mug.

"Honestly? I don't know. I'm not entirely sure the reincarnators are absolutely evil. Cringe? Yeah.. so much cringe.. But the thing is.. Their motivations and actions would have fucked Remnant and Shizuka's world up. That guy, Takashi? His virus would have made things so much worse.. Rei's boyfriend, Whatshisface? Total douchebag. Only wanted a hole to fuck. Don't even get me started on the teacher.." Neo rolled her eyes disdainfully at the memory.

"But.. killing is.." Ruby cut in and looked at Neo with an adamant expression.

"I'm not really a hero. My whole motivation is to have some fun along the way while I experience a second chance at life while occasionally helping people I think are good. I'm kinda selfish when you think about it" Neo nodded to herself.

"No.. you are a hero. You helped our world. Whether it was for a selfish reason or not, your actions helped countless people. Thank you" Ruby thanked her with a genuine smile.

The rest had a smile on their faces and Neo was taken back by the numerous words of gratitude. She felt it was undeserved but still, it made her happy that everyone was still here. That she changed the fate of everyone there for the better.

Neo finished the public Q&A and after four hours, it was just Neopolitan, JNPR, RWBY and Raven. She decided now was the best time to really open up like the piece of herself encouraged her to do.

"So this is.. my last secret, I guess? I'm only telling you guys this. I've gotten closer to you and you deserve to know. Especially those I've come to have feelings for" Neo sat on her bed and took a few calming breaths while everyone in the room quieted and looked at her seriously.

"You know I was a guy in my last life. But I guess, like everyone here, I have my own scars and baggage. My Mom died when I was young and my Dad started to treat me differently. At first, he just distanced himself. But then he started to show his disdain for me. He remarried soon after my Mom's death and I was the unwanted guest in the family according to him. My Stepmother was a nice woman who treated me well but when they had a child, her priority was to her son. I acted out like an idiot from middle school going on to highschool. I had one friend named Ashley, who I liked as a girl. She had my back and listened to me rant all the time. I was asked out by her and it was.... I was happy. Though I kept acting out because I was still mad at the world. I was too caught up in my own shit to realize she too had issues, severe ones. And she always.... she quietly suffered and listened to my dumbass. She suffered under her Dad. She was his punching bag and one day.. he apparently was going to have her... passed around his friends to 'use'. To prevent that, she saw no other option than to kill herself.." Neo swallowed a lump in her throat as her fingers clenched.

"Her note was what exposed her Dad's horrible treatment towards her.. She didn't even blame me either for not seeing it. She STILL supported me up to her death. That kinda.. well it drove me into a depression I never got out of until my death at twenty four years old. I was surviving but I wasn't actually 'living'. Until I came here" Neo sighed as she finished, looking up to see the sympathetic and empathetic-filled expressions of everyone in the room.

Then she felt hands on hers. Looking up, she saw Blake, Pyrrha, Neopolitan and Raven's in front of her. All of them had a look of understanding.

"Thank you.." Neo felt the lump in her throat vanish and her body felt lighter than before.

"You aren't to blame for that" Raven looked her in her heterochromatic eyes and tried to assure her.

"Logically, I know that. But I'll never stop thinking 'What if' you know? I told you all this to let you know that there are no more secrets between us, yes. But this is for me too. I need to move on and hope that she's out there, living a better life than the one she got" Neo breathed in and seemed to cheer herself up.

"I'm sure she is, Neo" Blake smiled and agreed.

"Yeah! Now why don't we throw a party!? All the bleak stuff is over with so let's celebrate our victory!" Yang suggested with a huge grin.

"Yeah! NEO CAN BAKE FOR IT!!!" Ruby turned to Neo with a hunger-crazed gaze.

"Make a tuna melt.." Blake suggested with drool dripping down her chin.

"Strawberry COOKIES!" Ruby shouted in excitement.

"PANCAKES!!" Nora followed up.

"Okay! I get it! I'll cook everyone something.." Neo held her hands up before looking at Neopolitan, who made a pleading expression.

"Super Sundae too? Okay, got it" Neo rolled up her sleeves and walked down to the Beacon kitchen.

The party lasted until five in the morning, when Ruby and Nora's sugar rush finally ended. Yang didn't even complain when Raven chose Neo as a nice place to fall asleep on. She just gave her a warning glare, like she was an overprotective father. Everyone in the chatroom woke up at noon the next day when the system sent a notification.

[Main Quest! Travel to Death City and join the DWMA/Shibusen! Destroy the reincarnator targets: Kishin Asura, Arachne and Justin Law!

Max participants: 4!

Quest Rewards: ???]

"Ough.. Soul Eater?" Neo mumbled as she got up, holding onto Raven who was still on top of her.

"Is there a time limit?" Pyrrha muttered out.

[Participants will be sent in 5 minutes! Please choose participants now!]

"Apparently.." Raven sighed.

"Well obviously I'm going" Neo confirmed her participation.

"Me too! I didn't go last time.." Pyrrha pouted and confirmed her participation.

"I.. urgh.. I still have to guide the White Fang here" Blake grumbled in disappointment.

"No worries. Not like we can't travel back and forth between worlds whenever we want" Neo pat Blake's shoulder but she still seemed vexed.

"Oh.. right.. Blake wanted to be your next partner in bed" Pyrrha muttered in realization.

"PYRRHA!?" Blake whisper-shouted in embarrassment.

"Oh! Yeah, as soon as we get a foothold in Death City. After that, I'll drop in and-" Neo was cut off by a blushing Blake.

"D..Don't say it now or the wait will be torture.." She muttered quietly.

Neopolitan raised both brows up and down with a big grin.

"Then I'll tag along too. I'm the most subtle of our merry group" Raven smirked and got off Neo, letting her catch an eye-full of her ass as she did.

Raven confirmed her participation and a wormhole opened before them.

"Let them know, okay Blake?" Neo asked before stroking her cat ears and kissing her, then entering the portal.

"Be back soon.." Blake bit her lip and sent them an envious look as they entered the portal.
