The pale red moon…
Sound of the structure being crushed, the pleasant floral scent, on a field of white flowers I keep evading the relentless attack of one who I call my mentor that guided me through this hell.
"Raah! Hah!"
One after another, his relentless attack gave me no time to rest. My throat is parched, my body is sluggish,
the wound accumulates and my eyes become blurry. I can feel countless grazing wounds caused by his scythe and they couldn't heal. I didn't notice it until I wasted two precious Blood Vials.
The dance of death continues as gunshots and the sound of metal colliding echo through the night. I look at the glowing Gehrmen then look at the pale red moon becoming lower as the battle proceeds.
*Swish*
I instantly quickened to the side before the scythe broke another tombstone like nothing. The attack is no joke as one hit will instantly kill me.
I take advantage of his moment of weakness to shot my blunderbuss to his face that stunned him and perform a visceral attack on him. The attack however didn't even reduce his body performance after I ripped out his organ.
Having no better method of attacking Gehrmen without getting deleted in one hit, I wait for him to perform an attack to make sure he cannot attack me before quickly attacking and quickening away. Rinse and repeat. If he makes a big attack that leaves his weapon stuck, I will stun him with blunderbuss to his face before performing a visceral attack.
After 10 more minutes, Gehrmen is defeated and falls to the ground as his body disintegrated into silvery light after saying his final words.
"Just like the simulation." I joked for a bit while restocking my Blood Vial on the quick slot before the Moon Presence grabbed me.
After I restocked my Blood Vial, the nightmarish dehydrated tentacled thing grabbed me and dragged me closer as if trying to eat me but a glowing light appeared on me that repelled it. The light comes from the umbilical cords I consumed before challenging Gehrmen.
The monster roared before it started to attack me in a fit of anger for whatever reason.
…
Few minutes later, I successfully killed it with ease. The monster is quite easy to fight since other than a big attack to look out to, the other attack is rather easy to dodge.
After killing everything that I was supposed to kill, I finally completed this hell I was thrown into. I shouted and cheered in great joy and happiness as I could finally exit this hell hole.

While I was checking my status screen, I heard something whisper to my ears that caused me to raise my weapon ready but nothing appeared.
"...o you seek…"
I heard the voice again but inside my mind instead of from my ears. I close my eyes and focus on the voice.
"...do you seek, benefactor of mine?"
The voice was unrecognizable to me and it didn't seem to be bearing any hostility, which made me relax a bit. This hellhole makes me a little trigger happy when I get surprised by anything. My worst nightmare is the sewer and caves as I am still afraid of the dark but have to venture into a pitch black cramped space with a damn torch that barely lit up anything.
Oh, I also forgot to explain how I'm here. So, long story short is I attempted suicide to meet ROB but didn't meet one but instead wake up while strapped to a surgical table screaming like a bitch when a wolf monster appeared from the floor.
It didn't take me a moment before I realized that I somehow isekai to Bloodborne world. I wanted to report on customer service, like at least isekai me to a fantasy world like those harem isekai manga that I used to read. I got Bloodborne of all world…
Perhaps my luck had long been exhausted by my gacha roll and ended up with negative luck when rolling for my isekai.
"What do you seek, benefactor of mine?"
The voice finally became clear enough for me to make out what she said.
(Detected a higher being of host current species. Accept the telepathy link?)
Yes.
"Oh you finally can hear me. Oh benefactor who freed my child, let this Kos reward you for your deed. What do you seek, benefactor of mine?" The voice introduces herself as Kos said.
When I heard what she said, I noticed that she would help me with something rather than granting wishes like a ROB. Then I asked for what I needed the most right now, which is to leave the Bloodborne world.
"Can you send me to another world?" I ask to know if she could grant my desire.
"Certainly oh benefactor of mine however the world you end up on might not be to your liking. My current form lacks the power to properly bring you to an actual world and only be able to drop you in a place where you might be able to seek what you need. Will you accept?"
"Yes please, just bring me away from this place." I accepted without any hesitation.
At this point, I'm willing to take on any world. This place is absolutely barren… no edible food, no drinkable water at all. Granted that I don't physically require them but my instinct for them is still there.
"As you wish, benefactor. Thank you very much for freeing my child and he also apologized for venting his anger on you."
The voice then disappeared as I shut my eyes and remembered my moment when fighting the Orphan of Kos, being bisected or cleaved in half by a weaponised placenta isn't a pleasant experience to have.
I feel my body become weightless and very cold for a moment before I feel like I was standing on a proper ground which prompted me to open my eyes.
Opening my eyes, my sight became clear again but instead of the flower field under the pale red moon, I saw a blazing city instead under a starless night sky.
"Haa haa haa…" she panted as she tried to run from the skeleton chasing after her.
She turned left from the building and saw a person dressed like a person from the Victorian era but with a jacket coat, metal reinforced boots and gauntlet, a cloak, tricorne hat and bandanna that covered his whole face except eyes and nose. He is looking at the horizon absentmindedly while holding a one handed sword and a firearm.
She runs toward him because she can feel that the person has a similar presence like her kouhai, Mash Kyrielight. She ran desperately toward the person while asking for help.
…
While looking at the horizon, I feel multiple knowledge is being crammed into my brain and the one that immediately caught my attention is his class being Foreigner. This instance made me remember the old game I heard about before named Fate Grand Order.
The game had become less popular at his time in 2060 and a brand new open world VR remake of that game was a big hit amongst Fate franchise fans. As a peasant that couldn't afford the VR pod, I can only make due with the movies of all singularity and the lostbelt that I pirated.
When I watched the movies, it was 3 years ago and I didn't remember much other than the first two and the second last singularity. From there I had delved into its fanfics and other material and knew bits and pieces of information.
Mu current class is Foreigner, which is a being who wields power drawn from outside human boundaries or entities from different dimensions. It does fit the description well as I am from another dimension and has power from the Bloodborne world. The evidence is [Existence Outside the Domain] skill that he obtained.
The skill is the only skill I obtained when arriving here and the rest of my skill is the same from my status screen. The skill allows him to defy the logic of this world and use whatever I could from the Bloodborne world. The example is the messengers which shouldn't exist here but exist anyway as I can instinctively know they will appear if I called them.
While I was distracted with my thoughts, I suddenly heard loud footsteps and yell which caused me to look at the direction it was coming from. I squinted my eyes and saw a cute girl with orange hair running towards me.
It's been forever since I last saw a girl that my lil bro got hard on sight, the damn puberty. In Yharnam, the only thing I see all the time is deformed something and I am also too busy trying to finish the Hunt to even bother to entertain my libido. The result is all pent up feelings are threatening to explode now that I'm outta the hellhole.
My only way to control my lust is to do the usual, drown in bloodlust. I activate the Holy Moonlight Sword that causes it to glow before I pounce on the skeletons.
…
She looks at the person who is standing like a statue, ignoring her plea for help in despair as she is very tired and about to collapse. Suddenly the sword the person holds becomes bigger and glowing in ethereal green before the person vanishes into mist.
*Crash*
She heard a loud noise behind her and it sounded like bones getting crushed. She stops running and turns back to see the person swinging his greatsword wildly like a berserker would. She also feels goosebumps as she feels a dangerous aura being released by the person as his swung becomes faster and stronger.
*Roar* *crash*
The person roared like an angered beast and produced a shockwave as she saw the devastated building break and turn into rubble. The person's body expanded like it was about to burst from his clothes but the person resisted and finished up the last skeleton.
She quickly ran toward the person without any precaution, she didn't even think of if it suddenly would attack her.
"Bzz… dako… Gudako! Can you hear me!"
She suddenly stopped when she heard a voice of someone calling her name.
"Doctor Romani?"
"Oh thank goodness, we finally made contact with you. Fujimaru and Mashu had made contact with us but we failed to reach y-" the voice abruptly stopped.
"Gudako, get away from your position now!" Romani ordered her in panic.
"I have to check on the person who just saved me." Gudako asks in frown.
"Just run, I don't think it's a person at all or even a servant. My reading shows that it is absorbing a large amount of energy to unleash something like a noble phantasm."
"Just run quick Gudako, I already alerted Fujimaru to help you." Romani shouted at Gudako.
Gudako reluctantly did as she started to feel shiver down her spine and the low growl of a beast coming from her saviour direction.
…
'Oh Shit! Oh Shit! Oh Shit!'
Ray is panicking in his mind as he totally didn't expect this. He only planned to release his pent up feelings on the kind and cooperative skele bros but suddenly when he was attacked from the back, he lost control of his rage and then the hell broke loose.
His new skill he forgot about, the [Beastial Form] suddenly activated and now he is having a mental wrestle to take control of his inner beast which he easily overpowering but too resilient to stay down. Thankfully this is a one time thing and he only needs to beat the beast into submission before it will obey him.
While he is having a mental wrestling, his physical body is running purely on instinct. It keeps howling like a enraged beast that attracts the nearby population of skeleton and servants before it transforms into a 10 meters tall creature like a werewolf but has large twisted antlers, looks malnourished with exposed ribs, thick coat of dirty fur and larger left claw than the right.
Its roar sounds like a combination of an enraged beast and human howl in pain. The roar created a shockwave that echoes across the whole city as if challenging its hidden people. After its roar, it sniff around before looking at the direction Gudako is running towards.
Gudako turned back to look at the beast staring down at her with red eyes. She ran faster as her adrenaline was pumping out faster than a desperate virgin with their hand during Valentine Day. The beast seems to be enraged that she is escaping, jumping twice with its strong legs before landing on her path.
Romani, who is looking with Da Vinci, is panicked as Fujimaru and Mashu are still 200 meters away. Gudako is basically a dead meat on a chopping board right now.
…
Gudako was stunned with a terrified look on her face as her escape was blocked and she was between two buildings that blocked her escape route. She is at the mercy of the person turned beast. She saw the left claw going toward her and she closed her eyes and shielded her eyes on instinct.
She felt the claw capture her but didn't crush her to death as she expected but lift her before she feels a snout sniffing her for a while before she feels something wet on her face which smells very bad.
"Eh…" Gudako is surprised that she isn't killed.
"Haah, thank goodness it didn't kill her." Romani sighed.
"Perhaps it's imprinting on her… however his form is very similar to the description of Wendigo, a creature from folklore which derived from European werewolf. Very interesting…" Da Vinci says with her usual curiosity oozing off her.
"Why is it interesting?" Romani asks with raised eyebrows.
"Because it isn't supposed to exist. Werewolf yes it does but Wendigo is a folklore and it didn't exist at all. Perhaps it's an ability or a noble phantasm."
While Romani is busy discussing with Da Vinci, Gudako is left alone to deal with the transformed Ray. To her relief, she isn't going to be eaten but to her dismay, she isn't safe yet since she didn't know what it would do next.
"Senpai!"
"Gudako!"
She heard the voices of Fujimaru and Mashu which caused her to open her eyes and look at them.
"Woah, what a big creature."
A guy with blue hair dresser like a spell caster while holding a wooden staff said while whistling at the size of the creature in front of him.
Due to the sudden arrival of the new group, the beast became agitated and howled to intimidate them before jumping back while gently cradling Gudako in his right arm. It howled again in intimidation when Mashu was about to attack but stopped by the blue hair caster with its staff.
"Don't approach it."
"But, senpai is…"
"She is fine, the beast didn't harm her but it is going to attack us if we push it too far. Besides, it's going to be ok soon."
"What do you mean it's going to be ok soon, Cu?" Fujimaru asks.
"As I said, it's going to be fine soon. There is a guy who loses control of his ability but will regain control soon." Cu Chulainn Caster says.
Just moments after Cu Caster said, they notice the beast's eyes turn from glowing red to normal eyes with pupils and irises. The beast looks confused for a moment as it scans its surroundings. Then it lifted Gudaku from his chest to eye level before putting her on the floor and vanished into mist and appeared ten meters away then vanished again into mist before it truly disappeared.
Everyone looks confused, especially Gudako herself. They ask Romani, Da Vinci and Cu Caster about the beast but no one can give an answer.
"No, It was a person before it became a large beast. I was chased by a group of skeletons before I stumbled upon the person. It tries to help me at first using a sword that can become a green glowing greatsword. While it was fighting, something strange happened before it turned into that beast." Gudako explained.
"I'm sure the strange thing is the strong bloodlust I felt when helping Fujimaru and Mashu from lancer."
"Anyway, since it didn't have ill intent against Gudako, perhaps we can negotiate with it next time we meet." Romani suggested.
"However, that guy didn't feel like a servant… rather, it didn't feel like a proper servant. It feels strange like Mashu although not the same as her…" Cu Caster says.
"Let's find somewhere to rest first." Gudako suggested and everyone agreed.
Meanwhile in an unknown location, a figure looks through his magic to see what happened during the Ray and Gudako encounter.
"Hmn… What an interesting interloper we have. Perhaps I should inform this development to the king
…
"Milord, the seed you have planted finally sprouted."
A childlike girl dressed in black and gold while wearing a pitch black laurel on her head kneels respectfully to her lord while reporting.
"Our beacon finally got activated huh. Took it long enough to activate… summon the administrator, I need him to replace me for now while I set off to another vacation."
"Milord, is it wise to leave your domain unattended again? Last time we did this, the outer gods took the chance to launch an attack during your absence." The girl said while kneeling lower to urge her lord to reconsider.
"Don't worry, last time we had many spies amongst us but I already personally purged those traitors and handpicked the trusted one to handle the administration." The lord shrugged before he used his power to bring her closer.
"Besides, you look very delectable today hmn… you even choose the same outfit you wear during your first time." The lord put her on his lap as he hungrily looked at her.
"Milord, please wait until we are in private spaces. The throne room might have peop- hngh!"
"It looks like someone is very daring today, wearing this for the whole day." The lord found a handle to certain something.
"It… it w.. was your order milord." She replied.
"Was I? I haven't been here since yesterday. Perhaps you were tricked by my clones again." The lord says while playing with the handle.
"Milord, you should keep your clones in control more… smaller matters like this didn't matter but if they impersonate you to give orders, it could be disastrous." The girl tried to put on a serious face but her lord kept toying with the handle that caused her to keep breaking her expression.
"Well, they can impersonate my identity but they can't impersonate the Imperial Regalia, Zenith."
A spear coated in golden yellow light appeared as the lord called its true name. The spear then transformed into a flood dragon before seeking its master's attention.
"Alright alright, geez… you are quite needy, Zenith. Did you run out of snacks again? Oh well, look like I have to scavenge for cooled neutron stars again."
The lord then let go of the girl who immediately left before he also left, vanished with his pet dragon to restock on snacks.

(Note: I plan to make a new novel based on the original one but what if Ray never gained the hub help but got isekai to Bloodborne instead with a unknown system that seems sus for some reason.)
