Lesson

Okay, this is a message for all those who have decided to drop this novel because of the previous chapter.

First: Are you retarded? I don't really care if you drop this or not because i'm basically writing this for fun and i'm happy knowing that there are people out there who actually enjoy this. But 1 chapter and you're done. Seriously? I'd get if you were upset at chapter 37 but kept reading just to see if it was worth continuing or not, but you guys just straight up dropped after 1 chapter, I hope you find something that suits your tastes better.

I personally recommend RWBY: The black Reaper and RWBY: Reborn With A System

Both are great novels.

Second: I admit that i could have written a better way to introduce the new OC, but if I did that you guys would have had to deal with like 10+ filler chapters of build up for a short ass fight where the MC gets stomped. Or I could just do what I did in chapter 37 and then slowly flesh it out without wasting time. I chose the option that would lead to the interesting parts faster. Curse me if you must.

Third: I have a plan (Dutch van der Linde reference). I wouldn't just make a chapter that I knew would get that kind of response without having a plan for the story, but if you guys want to quit here then I thank you for reading this far.

Anyway, the previous chapter was a type of catalyst for what will happen in the rest of the story. The new OC will be delved into later as I have Big plans.

Anyway for those who are still here, here's an extra chapter.

=====================================================

=====================================================

'Well shit'

Laying on a barren ground surrounded my numerous swords, Emiya stared up at the black gears in the sky and thought about how he got here.

"Well that was pathetic."

Hearing the voice, Emiya rolled his eyes and continued staring up at the sky. "Piss off, can't you see I'm trying to relax?"

"Relax? You were stabbed through the chest and you're thinking about relaxing!" The voice roared.

"What do you want me to do? It's not like I can just get up and leave." Emiya retorted.

"Do you even care?" The voice sighed.

"Of course!! If I knew I would have lost then I would have brought Highspeed regeneration instead of the Rasengan!! Why did I even buy it in the first place!? Chidori is way cooler!!" Lamenting to himself, he slowly got up and turned to face the figure behind him.

"Is that really what you're concerned about!!"

Standing inside UBW, a completely white version of Emiya shouted at the real Emiya.

After being stabbed by that black haired Faunus, Emiya found himself inside UBW where he was met with the hollow version of himself. As it turns out, UBW is treated as his inner world and for the past 9 years the hollow had been chilling inside trying to get out. There were a few instances where the hollow managed to let some of its influence flow out. An example was the time he started raging when Raven asked him what he wanted to do with his life. Apparently the reason Gamer's mind didn't kick in was because that anger came from his soul and wasn't considered a psychological attack since it was part of the Hollow's natural state.

The relationship between Emiya and Hollow Emiya was pretty weird. Unlike Ichigo and his hollow, Emiya and his hollow seemed to kick it off right at the start. The only issue was that the hollow would occasionally try to influence Emiya by telling him that he should just take over Remnant and kill anyone who stands in his way. Obviously Emiya disagreed as becoming king of Remnant would be way too much work and the payoff wasn't really anything he was interested in. The hollow also couldn't accept Emiya's loss against that Faunus and kept training him until he just lay down and stared at the sky.

From what he was told, he hadn't died, but he was extremely close and was now in a period of recovery. Knowing this caused Emiya to release a sigh of relief.

Then there was the matter of how he lost. Even after spending god knows how long inside here, Emiya still didn't understand what exactly happened. When he thought back to the fight, the only thing he was certain of was that his Sharingan couldn't follow that guy's movements. At the start he seemed completely normal and even slow. But then out of nowhere he appeared in front of him. Emiya hypothesized that the guy had a teleportation semblance and that was why his Sharingan couldn't capture his movements. But what he didn't understand was how he blew away all his swords and what that blue and black glow around his blade was.

And although he tried not to show it, he was deeply affected by almost dying. This was the first time since gaining his abilities that he was so close to death. Even living in that forest wasn't really a challenge as long as he didn't get attacked by hordes before he was able to fully control his powers. He was also concerned because he didn't know who attacked him or their reason.

If anything, this whole ordeal taught Emiya that he was way too arrogant. After his fight against Raven, Winter and Cinder's gang, he took everyone in this world as weaklings without the ability to harm him. But this fight (can't even be called that.) was a real wake up call. He met someone who was never introduced in the main story and let his guard down around him which resulted in his near death.

The only silver lining from this whole experience was the fact that he discovered that he actually did have a hollow.

=====================================================

"Ready for your next lesson?" The hollow asked looking at the now standing Emiya.

"Sure, sure, just tell me if you have a way to counter that guy's teleportation." Emiya sighed looking at the hollow.

"Unfortunately that system of yours limits me from teaching you any real techniques." The hollow commented.

'Bullshit SYSTEM!!'

"But what I can do is improve what you already have."

"Meaning?"

"Do you remember Goku's first fight against Hit?" The hollow asked.

"Of course! Hit's my favourite character in Dragon ball Super!"

Nodding his head, the hollow looked at him with approval.

"Do you remember how Goku countered his time skip at the beginning?" He questioned.

Closing his eyes, Emiya thought back to the night he first watched the fight between the Saiyan and Hitman.

"He predicted where Hit was going to hit him and prepared in advance."

"Exactly!" The hollow beamed. "That is what you'll be learning for the rest of your time in here."

"What's the point of that? If I reinforce my body to rival a servant then won't I just beat him straight away?"

"*Sigh* And here I thought you were starting to get it. Your body can't handle that level of reinforcements, and not to mention when you used the hollow mask and reinforcements at the same time, that Faunus kid was still able to react and get behind you. We don't know how many secrets he has or how much he was holding back, it's better for you to save your servant strength as your trump card." The hollow explained. "Plus, being able to predict your opponent's movements is better than just relying on your reflexes."

'He has a point.'

Nodding his head, Emiya picked up a sword from the ground.

"Now come at me!!" The hollow barked.

=====================================================

After a couple hours of practice, Emiya was once again lying down on the floor while his body was covered in sweat.

Standing above him, the hollow was filing his nails with Archer's Dao swords.

"You're really bad at this." He commented.

"Shut….Up….Prick." Unable to move his body, Emiya closed his eyes and went to sleep.

=====================================================

"You're not improving!"

The hollow dodged the blade aimed at his head.

"No Shit Sherlock!! It's not like I haven't noticed for the past 3 weeks!!" Emiya swung his sword trying to decapitate the annoying fucker.

"If you know then why don't you try harder!!" The hollow screamed deflecting the sword.

"I AM!" Emiya was seriously trying to murder him.

=====================================================

Instead of using swords, the hollow suggested switching to unarmed combat.

"URGHH!!!"

Having the wind knocked out of him, a blind folded Emiya backed away while gripping his stomach.

"I think you almost dodged that one." The hollow mocked.

"YOU PALE SKINNED MOTHERFUCKER, YOU'RE ENJOYING THIS AREN'T YOU!!" Emiya screamed.

"Whatever could you mean?" The hollow said trying to sound innocent.

"AARRGGHHH!!"

=====================================================

"Oh? Looks like you'll be waking up soon. It's too bad that you didn't learn to predict attacks before they happened." The hollow sighed regretfully.

"FUCK OFF!" Emiya shouted while the hollow sat on top of his back.

"Geez." Rolling his eyes, the hollow slowly got off him. "Now remember, get as many points as possible and buy highspeed regeneration or I'll take over your body and go on a slaughter." The hollow reminded him.

'Why couldn't he have just done that when I got a fucking hole stabbed through my belly!!'

Feeling his body get lighter, Emiya saw his body start to glow. Taking a last look at the hollow, he raised his middle finger.

"BURN IN HELL YOU ALBINO BITCH!!"

After chapter 37's response, my heart broke a little bit (You guys turned on me fast) jk, so i'm gonna take a week off in order to deal with my work and irl issues.

BTW I'm 19 so I've been ditching some of my university work in order to give you guys chapters everyday or as close as possible. So see ya in a week or 2 if you haven't dropped it.
