While I continued being mesmerized by the beauty in front of me. She starts looking side to side, seemingly searching for something, well in this case someone.
When she finally saw me, she gasped and exclaimed:
"A Child!"
I couldn't help and retort:
"Don't tell me you've never seen a child before?"
"Of course I have! It's just, I didn't expect one to be my master."
"Well, in that case, don't worry then. I happen to be a grown young man, just so you know. My body's age was reduced for some reason. So worry not, I shan't be a drag."
When I said this she looked a little conflicted, but just sighed and seemed to come to terms with it. It seems that looking like a child puts her on edge.
"Well, in any case, I've already been given knowledge about my mission. There are just 4 years before this corrupted Holy Grail War begins, and, while it pains me to say this when you look like this, you will be a participant."
"Nothing I didn't expect my dear Jeanne."
Wow, I guess lowering my mental age somehow made me bolder. She nods at my words and continues:
"Since I'm a Ruler class servant, please don't expect me to fight your battles. I will only intervine if your life is in danger."
"Well in any case, I have to start making my plans. But first things first."
My face take on a serious look, which makes her be prepared for something problematic.
"Yes!?"
"We need to clean this place!"
Her expression turned strange, to say the least.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~2DAYS LATER~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Fuwsh, We finally finished."
After 2 days of cleaning, not continuously thought, we finally finished.
In the small storage we found all the things we needed to clean the house.
Now the Origin Residence appears to be in perfect living conditions.
Jeanne and I sleep in the Master Bedroom (I'm basically a 5 year-old, get you mind out of the gutter.) It has a Gigantic bed, literally it could hold around 10 people! And a few other decorations and furniture, nothing as impressive as the bed.
As for right now? Jeanne and I have begun a conversation on the bed while sitting on seiza.
"Since we got that out of the way, it's time to go onto more pressing matters"
"I'm listening, Master"
"Alright I've set one goal that will acomplish a lot and it is:
Prevent Sakura and Rin from being adopted by the Matou family.
Currently, I believe, Rin is 2 year-old, while Sakura is 1 year-old. Sakura was adopted one year before the start of the Holy Grail War, so 1993. This prevent will prevent the Heaven's Feel route, the death of Kariya Matou, and Aoi Tohsaka's brain damage.
As for Kirie Kotomine... I believe I can do something about him."
"While I wholly agree, you need to remember that by doing this you will inadvertently change the future from what you know, are you prepared for that?"
A light smile forms on Ignacio's face whithout him realising.
"If by me being disadvantaged, the Tohsaka family will achieve a higher degree of happiness, then I don't mind."
"I see..."
'Why did Jeanne smile just now?'
" Cough, I need to lay low for about 2 and a half years. In this time, I'll have to start training my body and studying magecraft"
"That would be the best to do. After all you are participating in a war."
"Still, while I know what to do to train my body, I have no idea on how to start my magecraft study."
[I can help with that]
"You can?"
"Master, what was that, what is that?"
Jeanne begins pointing at the screen in front of me.
[I am the one who established the contract between you and Ignacio, as well as made your summoning possible in this timeline. Since you are connected to Ignacio, you can see and hear what was originally only meant for him.]
Jeanne begins looking over at me for clarification.
"That is the truth."
[As I was saying, differently from normal magus who need a start-up on their magic circuits from an external source. You possess a Magic Core, which is running prana through them at this very moment. Since you, word for word, contain all magic systems inside you, you don't need to study them, the knowledge will come to you with exposure. However, all of them are worthless in front of True Magic.]
[There are five True Magic:
Denial of Nothingness
Kaleidoscope, Operation of Parallel Worlds
Heaven's Feel
(The Fouth Concealed itself)
Magic Blue]
[Out of all of them, the only one with any use towards you is the Denial of Nothingness, but the current you can't handle it. So what I recommend, is for you to assimilate all of the Heroic Spirits Skills and Noble Phantasm, just meditate and you'll get the ability, you are only able to assimilate skills belonging to males, though. Why? Since you're male, your subconscious is automatically rejecting anything that is female from being assimilated, a way to look at it, is like trying to make a circle go inside a hollow square, with the same mass had it been full. It wouldn't fit. But this creates a problem, since this isn't just with skills it's all things female-related, where will all the female energy go?]
[Opps, got a little off topic. But any way you get the gist. Ciao.]
Silence followed after the abrupt coming and going of the System.
"Jeanne-chan did you understand anything the System just explained? I lost her when she tried to explain: Why."
Jeannes stares at me and says:
"You aren't alone, Master... you aren't alone..."
"Still, Denial of Nothingness, huh? It seems to be an interesting concept. Although, I bet there are male caster, so I would still get magecraft..."
[I forgot about that. Teehee]
A small vein made it's presence known on my forehead when I heard that 'teehee'. I start taking deep breaths.
'I must stay cool and collected'
[Ding!

Jeanne's Thoughts:
Let us thank the Lord for giving our dear Author-kun motivation to write on this day, if you want more ask our Father who is in Heaven and he shall hear you. Let us also thank him for everything he has done in our lives. Even in rough times, there is always something to be thankful for. I pray that you all come back to him, especially in these times of need. Everything in life has it's purpose, even the things that seemingly make no sense. Everything happens for a reason.
I ask of you once more, that you come to our Heavely Father who, believer or not, is always by our side; with an overabunding amount of blessings ready to come into our lives, yet keep being rejected by most of us, His beloved Children. I pray that the Lord's Grace enters your life and those of your families. The Lord and I Love YOU!
May God's Will Be Done.
God Bless y'all. Amen.
