Poseidon Pov
On arriving back to the castle the first thing we did was to have a feast which lasted two hours long, it made everyone including the servants of Jalter who in a sense didn't like her feel better, once the feast had finished Jalter rubbed her belly with a satisfied look on her face and like always it didn't bulge even a nanometer.
After the feast Jalter shortly ordered all the servants to go and continue their massacre, unable to reject her command they could only obey and leave. I cleaned all the dishes using the clean spell and then I asked her," Jalter, I have something to ask", she stopped and looked at me respectfully and replied," Yes, My Lord?", I said," What do you think about my decision of sparing them? Do you like it or not?".
She became stunned and after a bit replied," As long as My Lord you want something, I have no opinion about it", I sternly said," Truthfully tell me what you think about it.", she paused and bit her lips in fear," I-I didn't like Lord's decision of sparing them at first but after pondering about for a bit I realized that it is better that way, It will be interesting to give them hope only to ruthlessly break it", she replied as her mood changed with a sadistic smile forming on her face.
I ruffled her head causing her to blush lightly as she looked at me surprised, I mean they are soft to be not played with and her face with a blush looked quite cute to me," See? That isn't hard right? There might come times when lies are needed to be spoken but for the most the time saying truth is the best option, even if it is cruel and disgusting, Good Girl", I replied, she nodded slowly as I continued patting her.
"I- I understand My Lord, I shall follow what you taught me", she said stuttering, I stopped patting the poor girl, she felt both fear of me and affection towards me when I patted her head, though I expected that with time her fear of me lessen considerably, I have already decided to make this girl my permanent subordinate who will do my bidding. I mean doing everything by myself is exhausting.
Man, I am missing that lackey who used to assist me and do all the miscellaneous jobs for me, and well I didn't bother to even remember his name considering him a weakling, even my Deepak self doesn't remember him considering he was shown in the manga only once, I guess I can thank him when I return and I am pretty sure he will be quite surprised by it.
Anyway, I want her to make extremely loyal to me, so much that she won't mind sacrificing herself for me, at least that's my current plan with her, but she is someone with whom I am free to go further if things go right, whether we will become more is completely unknown as of now.
This might be the first real relationship I might have amusingly, my sister Demeter did pursue me and I had some sexual adventures with her losing my virginity to her but I rejected her proposal considering her not worthy, there are many other Goddess I rejected back in heaven as well including Aphrodite, I am proud of this fact that I did reject her.
She like a whore she is tried seducing me and it did work a bit, I banged her straight for five years and showed her rightful place and by the end, she was begging me to make her my sex slave and even proposed to abandon her prostitution but I considered her nothing more than a fine pussy and rejected her coldly with a few slaps when she didn't stop begging me.
I slowly came out of my thoughts and glanced at Jalter who was sweating nervously seeing me quiet. I smiled and said," Jalter proceed with your endeavor, I have something to do so I will be absent for a while okay?", she nodded in affirmation," Then I shall wait for your return My Lord", she replied, I teleported myself a bit far and then silent chanted fly and compass spells respectively, I started hovering in the sky towards the direction of the sea.

3rd Pov
Same day but nighttime,
"So how are you feeling?", asked Romani anxiously, Ritsuka replied," I am feeling fine professor although there is still a bit of strain in my body and weakness my situation is slowly improving", Romani sighed in relief hearing that," Thank God", Leonardo stepped forward in front of the comms and asked," Can you explain me exactly what are you feeling? Also what is it like to be Master of three servants?".
Romani's eyebrows twitched hearing that, Ritsuka laughed nervously seeing Leonardo's curious face in the holographic projection, and said," I will talk about that in detail later on, for now... I think we should think about how to defeat them", everyone near him became silent for a bit.
"Listen, kid, you have seen their prowess right? Even then you believe that you can win against them?", said Elizabeth, Kiyohime snorted and said," Hmph! Why scared? I get it you are a scaredy-cat but I and Master aren't like that!", she smirked causing Elizabeth to become angry," Huh?! What are you talking about? And how the fuck did this guy whom we meant just hours ago became our Master? Even if we have a contract it is just a temporary one and this guy is not my type at all!".
Kiyohime meanwhile ignoring her approached Ritsuka grabbed his hand by surprised and said," He is an ideal Master, unlike Anchin-sama who ran away from my love and forced me to burn him into ashes, he came and helped me when I was near death's door, isn't that romantic?", she started rubbing her head against him, who looked shocked and confused on how to respond, he looked at Mash for help who turned her head away,' No Mash!!! ', he thought with a betrayed look.
'Sorry Senpai but the matters of love are unknown to me so I don't know what to do in such a situation, and for some reason look on Miss Kiyohime's face is too scary ', she thought with guilt, Leonardo, Romani, and the entire Chaldea staff looked the scene at the holographic screen speechlessly.
"Don't you fucking ignore me!!", shouted Elizabeth, Kiyohime smirked and replied," Don't disturb us in our lovey-dovey moment you Frill-necked lizard", Elizabeth stood up from her place and cracking her fists with a mad look said," Do you want a beating you bitch?", Kiyohime's smile stopped, her face became creepy as she waved her fan and said," If you want to test how hot my fire is then come on, I am ready to shot flames of my love!".
Marie sighed and said," Girls, it is not the time to-", interrupting her both of them looked at her and shouted simultaneously," Shut up!", a vein appeared on Marie's face as she smiled, Wolfgang looked in fear and then glanced at the two women and prayed for their well being, next moment cries of Kiyohime and Elizabeth resounded the area, both of them lay on the ground flinching on pain while Marie looked with a happy smile on her face.
Ritsuka, Wolfgang, and Mash looked at her with fear,' Scary! ', they thought," Is it me or just these two servants that dumb", said Leonardo earning the ire of two almost unconscious servants flinching in pain," They are covered in bandages from head to toe, their injuries haven't healed completely yet and from my calculations, it would take at least 2 weeks of repeated healing procedure with continuous Mana supply to get them healed enough to fight a proper battle and fighting now with each other is an easy ticket back to the Throne of Heroes", said Leonardo.
Soon the two servants recovered and became docile under the gaze of a cheerful Marie, Wolfgang said," Now we should continue with our strategy", he glanced at Jeanne who was silent till now, she realized his look and asked," Yes?", Marie said," You are another version of her right?", she nodded in affirmation.
" Since you are here is there anything you can help with us about her?", asked Wolfgang, Jeanne shook her head and replied," I don't, I can't even comprehend how she can be this cruel, other than that her spirit origin while same as me, her abilities are vastly different", they sighed in disappointment hearing that.
"Well then that leaves us for only one option", said Marie, Mash asked seriously," What is that Miss Marie?", she replied," We need to find other servants possibly summoned by the Holy Grail and form an alliance with them, unless our prowess increases considerably chances of us winning against her are none to zero."
Everyone's faces became dejected hearing this unable to refute the statement, they knew better than anyone how true her words are, Ritsuka clenched his fists and said," Yes, we need more servants with us if we stand a chance of fighting against her, but I am not gonna give up! We will win this together!".
" Boy did anyone told you that you are a good motivational speaker?", said Elizabeth, Ritsuka blushed in embarrassment hearing that and replied," Well no one told me that at least till now", others started chuckling, the mood of everyone improved, Leonardo said from the comms," Nice! Now that you have regained your will to fight, how about we go through every enemy servants?".
They nodded," Let's see we have the photos of each one, so yes, this is the first one", she said as the holographic projection with white hair, held a specter in her hand, Elizabeth looked at the girl and rasing her hand gaining everyone's attention she is said," You all see, she is apparently my older self".
"Eh?! Miss Elizabeth isn't that something impossible? How can both of you be summoned at the same time?", said Ritsuka, Romani replied from the comms," You see Ritsuka, it is possible for the same servants to be materialized at the same time in a different class though it's a very rare phenomenon".
Elizabeth nodded and said," As that orange-haired man said, she is my older self, and the biggest reason behind her existence is some fucking novelist messed up my legend and made my elder self a Vampire, tsk, making me who has the blood of a dragon a pathetic vampire, as expected of a fucking Novelist".
Then they moved to another one, and then another, but unfortunately for them, they didn't know anyone else other than Jalter who is Jeanne's Alter self, even then they barely knew her abilities which included controlling Wyverns and riding a dragon, finally Poseidon came into their topic.
"So... Who is he?", asked Mash, Jeanne replied," I don't know much about him but from what I have seen my other self is very respectful towards him", others nodded and Marie said," It isn't just respect but I have seen fear on her face as well when she was kneeling before him", Ritsuka commented," From the moment he appeared till the moment he gave her signal to stand up, she kept kneeling ignoring all of us".
"That means either she is very loyal toward him or extremely scared of him", said Elizabeth, Romani asked Leonardo beside him who was sipping coffee," Any idea?", she shook her head and said," I don't know, but my calculations say that he has the Holy Grail and might be the one who summoned the other Jeanne D'Arc".
"Well...", said Wolfgang as he started thinking about Poseidon deeply, he started comparing him to the heroes of the legends he knew, and others did the same until Elizabeth couldn't hold it in," This is fucking confusing! We barely know about the enemy servants and that Man! How are we supposed to do anything against them", she shouted, others looked helpless.
"Thinking about it any longer isn't gonna help let's take a rest and tomorrow we will begin our search for other servants", said Wolfgang, others agreed with his opinion and decided to have a proper dinner before sleeping.

Poseidon Pov
A few days have passed since I started growing my connection with this world's ocean, using a large amount of Mana gathered by my Mana Heart I used them to temporarily activate my Divinity speeding the whole process by tens of times and considering that the rate of consumption was just barely 10% higher than the rate of my regeneration the whole process went very smooth and now I have reached a level where I don't need Mana to keep my Divinity active.
But it isn't enough and I have been trying to take it further and do what I have tested in fate Apocrypha world, I continued deepening my connection for another ten hours till I achieved what I wanted to.
[Ding! Your Divinity has reached A!
You have reacquired your Divine Nature!
Your Heroic Spirit body has been converted into a proper Divine Spirit!
Some of your parameters have increased!
You have got an A Rank All type resistance!
Your Divine Spirit body has regained Immortality types 1 & 2!
Due to deepening your connection with this world's origin, you have regained your Divine Authorities!
Authority of the Water: A+
Authority of the Ocean: A++
Authority of the Earthquake: C+
Authority of the Horses: D+
Congratulations to Master for completing the secret quest ' The only remaining Divine! '
You have been bestowed a reward!
Reward Completion Condition: You need to be the only Divine being in a world where there is no existence of a Divine Being.
Note: As long as the world is without Gods the quest will be considered complete, it doesn't matter if you are the first divine being in that world or not.
Reward: Divine Nature(Omniversal)
Function: No matter the world, timeline, or dimension you will always have your Divine Authorities even if the laws of that world don't allow a functioning Divine Authority.
Advantages: You will have your full Divine Nature and authority no matter the world, even if it is a Murim world, Xianxia World or Scif-World not permitting Divinities.
Disadvantages: You will have full power only with your true body, and your powers will always will weaker in a vessel.], system announced.
The reward wasn't unexpected after I considered how the system functions, to be honest, I was 45% sure that I would get a reward, but the quality of the reward surprised me, although it won't be able to show its full usefulness in this verse full of Divine Beings, at least I would be able to manifest as a Proper Divine Spirit even in the time periods where the Age of Gods have ended.
I teleported outside of the deep ocean on its surface, standing on the water's surface betraying the laws of physics I took a deep breath and muttered," It is nice to feel this power again", I gazed at the ocean and smiled," I have 60% of my peak power but considering after my parameters were converted into Fate's power system which made me stronger including my Divinity, I expect EX Rank Authorities of Water and the Ocean when my full Divine Nature is manifested", I said satisfied.
' Now let's see if my guess about that secret quest was true or not ', I thought teleporting back to the castle.
To be continued...
