Lawrence's POV*

Damn… where am I? I questioned looking at my surroundings. It is fairly eerie here and I am sure that any normal human would get chills from how unsettling this place. I took a proper look at the surroundings and confirmed my situation. "They really are not here…" I muttered with my lips twitching. I know it was my mistake for not doing a proper conversation with the Ulthar Cats however I just couldn't help it.

I never thought that they exist in that Universe, TYPE MOON nonetheless. Uh wait, that is wrong. I guess I should expect them to exist since its TYPE MOON. Anyway since they exist, does that mean that other eldritch beings exist there too? Or am I just over expecting things? "It would certainly be interesting if they exist though…" I murmured in amusement.

Just imagine the world being plunge into chaos because of questionable horrors suddenly appearing in the physical world. Although that idea fascinates me, I will do my best to prevent my urges. "Any help here?" I said talking to the cat who was hidden in the shadows. The cat, probably the leader of them jumped out and purred in front of me.

"You mean you brought me here because of that second request of yours? Well, I certainly wouldn't mind erasing others for you however mind telling me who are we dealing today?" I asked the cat who just meowed in return. Strangely enough despite them doing normal cat things I could still understand them. It is just probably because I am a freak myself.

The cat's answer baffled me. "The hell you mean eldritch?" is it thinking to erase an eldritch, wait it did mention of it being an infant. The mention of eldritch immediately piqued my attention, I opened my perception and inspected the world. To my surprise, a creature that is supposedly in the Dark Tapestry really exist here.

"You just did not bring me to your home world right…?" I questioned turning my attention to the cat again. It did not answer this time and just turned away. "Why bother me with this? You cats are immune to those creatures right? You can easily handle them" I might looked like a fool right now but I still conversed with the cat.

The cat caterwauled in my direction. "The timeline diverted from its original direction resulting to one of the creatures continuing to live… this is indeed troublesome" I said digesting what the cat just said. There are a lot of eldritch monstrosity in this world and by a lot, I literally mean a lot. It seems like the creature I am requested to kill is something that should have died in the original timeline.

I wonder what created the crack? That doesn't matter right now though as I am more curious to which monstrosity is it? Is it Cthulhu? Nyarlathotep? Nah, I could not handle that one. Cthulhu maybe, but Nyarla is still out of my capability. Though if I do fully integrated my whole abilities, then I could probably take it and get equal in result. Either way, this is interesting…

While Lawrence is lost in the Universe of Horror, the girls were miraculously sent to a single world. Unfortunately enough, they weren't teleported into a single spot and instead were scattered throughout this enormous world. In the perspective of Nero, she found herself being surrounded by a group of not-human beings.

"… What the hell are you supposed to be? Spirit?" the person in front of her asked. Nero observed the young man and noticed how his hair was slightly similar to that of Lawrence. This immediately placed the young man in the good people inside her dictionary. It might be strange but that is just how she is, there is no one who can change that.

"Come on, come on, don't pressure her like that. Now she can't speak properly" another one spoke and this one has a weird familiarity to that of a monkey for Nero. "She is emitting an aura of a strong one. Quite commendable" a young man with blonde hair and glasses spoke. He has a strangely alluring sword on his side ready to be unsheathed.

"Nii-sama, I think we should stop this. She doesn't look like a bad person…" this time a young girl with same blonde hair as the young man before said. She has a concerned expression on her face not sure what to say about this situation. "Hnn, smell strong, nyaa~" Nero turned to the side and saw a woman with black hair and visible fluffy ears.

Overall, everything makes no sense to Nero. The question is, does that matter to the Emperor? Absolutely no. "Umu! As expected of me, immediately meeting formidable individuals. At this case even Jesus himself will bow to me someday!" Nero hummed happily puffing her chest. She seemed unfazed by the attention she is getting and even ignoring the weapons faced at her.

Her actions made the group silent as they just gawked at her. "Well, we may be damned. We picked an exotic one today" the monkey like man said wryly scratching the back of his head. The others also sighed thinking that they just met a person with problems on the head. "An insult to the Emperor is unforgivable!" Nero shouted releasing her pressure.

Everyone on the spot had their back hunch from the sheer intensity of it, it forced their eyes to widen up in shock. "…Strong" the silver haired young man muttered with a glint of excitement on his eyes. The group readied their weapons for the anticipated clash however to their surprise, Nero just suppressed her pressure and returning to normal.

"Umu! Much better. Now, bow before the Emperor!" Nero said opening her hands at them. "It seems like we really picked a unique one" the silver haired individual grinned.

-10 mins later.

"Ohh! Amazing, so you mean you are the notorious Emperor of Rome? That Nero?" the scene changed and it became that of a normal gathering. "Umu! Indeed, that is me!" Nero nodded her head proudly while drinking a coke on one hand. "So are you like, super strong?" the man with tight suit and headband like thing asked.

He was fairly excited about this question but not much as the silver haired individual. Nero didn't respond to their question and just stared at them for a few seconds. "30 seconds at minimum, that should be enough" she then muttered convincing herself. This statement of hers brought frown to their faces, it was obvious enough what she is talking about.

"Hooh, is that your conclusion for our group? How intriguing…" the silver haired man said narrowing his eyes. "She should be really strong, be careful, nyaa~" the black cat like woman warned her companions who are discernibly battle maniacs.

"Anyway enough of this. Let's introduce ourselves first! I already did mine so be a proper human being and respond!" Nero said ignoring the intent they are showing. She could fight them right now but she prefer if they could know each other more first, that would be more acceptable. The silver haired man raised his eyebrow for a second before arriving at a decision.

He hid off the white metallic wings behind his back and handed his hand to Nero. "The current White Dragon Emperor, Vali Lucifer" he said smiling lightly. With him doing the headstart, the others also decided to introduce themselves. "Hello nyaa~! Kuroka here! That monkey is Bikou, that cute girl is Le fay while that upright man is Arthur Pendragon!" Kuroka didn't give them any chance as she did all of their introduction.

"Lucifer? Are you connected to the devil in the bible?" Nero asked tilting her head in confusion. The others also intrigued her because of their names, to be precise it is about Arthur and Lefay. She already met the real Arthur Pendragon and is wondering who this young man is to take her name. "That's right! Vali is the grandson of the infamous Lucifer!" Bikou said holding the shoulder of Vali.

"Umu! I see! Lucifer it is! Then you must also be a devil! Hmm, wait is there a real devil?" Nero muttered in puzzlement because she never really saw one in her life. Or even in the grail wars she fought. Nero took her time to familiarize herself with the group. She inquired a lot of things from them which they patiently answered.

Nero was a unique person for them so they didn't mind entertaining her questions. It also amused them how weird the girl was, and of course they didn't take the Emperor thing seriously. There might be some great legendary figures from their world however they know that Emperor Nero Claudius is genuinely dead.

They just treated her in the same case as Arthur and Lefay who were descendant of some great figures. Nero didn't really mind the misunderstanding and just enjoyed herself at this new entirely different world. She has forgotten about the fact that her companions are not with her and would only realize it much later.
