Chapter 3 The Chaos Begins!
On Chapter now
..............
In Apartment Building in Fuyuki City. Japan.
In one particular room are four people, or more precisely: One tied up child and teenager with knife, other two are dead dismembered bodies with all limbs around red circle.
"What do you think, kid! Isn't this beautiful!" Crackled mad young man as he danced around room with knife in his right hand. "Do you think Demons exist?"
Young boy that is tied up is crying, child must be traumatized.
"What do you think, would you be good dinner for one? If it exist?" Asked teen, as he walked around said child in circles, inspecting young boy before walking in front him. "Would it be honor if Demon eats you? Or it kills you and eats you. OR NO, BETTER, HE EATS YOU ALIVE!!" Laughed young man before feeling, weird pain sensation from his right hand. Weird red colored symbols are formed. Thus creating a Command Seals.
"What is this? Tattoo?" He asked himself before spatting on that same hand and rubbing it in hopes of erasing "tattoo.
Few seconds after his proclamation, the weird red circle flashed with light. And pillar of light appeared before one person stepped out of it. That same person is short-blond haired middle-aged man in his 40s. Clad in outfit of white and red color, symbolizing his status in royalty or even as king. He is 180cm tall and has blue-six pointed star on the left side of his forehead.
AUTHOR NOTE: MC doesn't need Swallowtail mark to store time in my fanfic, after all he is buffed for Nasuverse but i still kept that same Mark for his "fashion", it still has same functions.
Man opened his eyes before staring at Ryuunosuke, moment later he opened his mouth to ask very-needed question, that all servants must ask. "Are you... my master?"
Not even second later, after said question was given, he seemingly appeared in front of Ryuunosuke who was gaping at said servant moment ago. Said servant placed his hand on Ryuunosuke's head, second later, Ryuunosuke appeared to be Aging. In seconds, he turned from teen to old man, and then into ashes, and ashes into nothing.
POV Change to John
"One of many future threats is dealt with, but now..." I trailed off as I looked at young boy, that had passed out after seeing my "glorious" showcase of magic. 'Who cares, I need to check my face.' I though before I began inspecting this apartment or house for any bathroom.
Not that room.
Next, not that.
This is bedroom.
'Ah, this is it. 'I though before stepping into bathroom, looking little-bit around me, i found mirror before walking to it. And as I expected, I have exact same face of Julius Novachrono before he was "killed" by Patolli. "At-least i'm good-looking. Now I need to re-check my memories for all spells and knowledge obtained but first, let's see how much has my presence changed the "canon" "
"Time-Foresight-Magic: Future Timelines" I murmured before blue-clock-like symbol appeared in my right eye, allowing me to see all-potential timelines that could be created and altered by my actions, and all timelines are currently derived from my existence as Caster in this war. This spell shows me how to see "current" future and shows me how I could alter it by my actions for my own sake. I smiled after seeing dozens timelines flashing through my eye, I focused on my current timeline, showing how events would unfold if I don't take actions.
I would win, but if I take actions, end could happen sooner.
I searched deeper into said timeline. Because of my existence, Grail War changed. Into two-team-servants fight.
Red-Team, me and other "current" summon servants.
Black-Team, soon to be summoned servant.
And one Ruler.
In all timelines, current Master's wouldn't know about the existence of other 8 servants before they showed "after" First Lancer vs Saber fight.
"Ok, enough about altering future, for that I need time, for time I either need Alive Beings to steal from or nature. I can't steal too "much" time from nature or humans, it would alert Alaya to send Counterforce to keep "watch" on me. Best option would be to got prison, take several years of everyone and same with nature. And Zouken. While I have mana to perform High-level spells, being overly-cautious wouldn't hurt no one." I justified myself before leaving this apartment, kid survived, it's not-like anyone would believe, minus Masters. No one knows of my identity in this war, minus Gilgamesh.
'While I did gain "needed" knowledge from Grail War such as language, etc. I still need informations about Fuyuki city, and where to make my own base, while Ryuudou Temple is over-all good choice, it's also the one place where everyone would assume Caster to be, so it's out.' I though before flashing with my Transformation Magic, successfully turning myself into older-Sasuke Uchiha, why? For appearance obviously. My looks are too obvious.
Location Change.
Several hours later.
Near Tohsaka residence.
"The seventh servant, Caster has been summoned." Said man, clad in priest-outfit. Tall middle-aged man with black hair and eyes. This man is Kirei Kotomine, obviously
"Yes." Responded another figure, or rather person with darkened skin and white mask on his face. This person appeared behind Kirei.
"Tohsaka..." Murmured Kirei, glancing at manor, several hundred of meters away from him.
"Do you want me to dispatch your mentor? Weren't you allies?" Asked the same figure, who is now revealed to be one of the many faces of Hassan of the hundred faces.
"No. It's too early. Maybe some other time." Said Kirei, before turning around and leaving that location. Closely followed by his servant.
At same time on another location.
Prison.
Our Main Character is "transformed" as one of the guards, he is walking around the said prison, at the same time he is taking years of time in "old" peoples while months from young people.
'Oh, butterfly effect, it's simple, not worthy mentioning but, next days would be interesting at-least' I though, before continuing my "job".
