Perfect, now I have to buy a fruit for the scissors.
[Scissor Blades has Choki Choki no Mi (Devil Fruit))] -20 [188]
I could see the scissors tremble slightly before stopping. I shrank the scissors to the size of regular scissors and held them between my fingers. I could feel through the connection how to order the scissors to activate the effect of its Devil Fruit. I crouched on the ground and began to cut the ground.
It was... weird, but incredible. I actually barely felt any resistance as I cut a strip of ground. I could even manipulate it however I wanted, even though I wasn't really the one who had the Devil Fruit. Although once I stopped paying attention to it, the ground hardened into its new form.
"Okay, devil fruits are bullshit, my power is giving me a headache trying to figure out how the hell what you just did works," said Lucius, who had been watching until now. I snorted in amusement because, indeed, the fruits were cheating nonsense. Still, they were instrumental if you knew what you were looking for.
"Well, at least with this, I solve Narcissa's whole problem. I'll have to show her how to create a connection using duralumin so that she can connect to the scissors and control them with her intention; it will be much easier for her." I said as I stood up, before looking at all the mess I had caused. I sighed. I clapped.
After tidying up the entire kitchen, I approached Lucius.
"Thank you, she'll love them." Lucius smiled, and I shook my head.
"No thanks necessary, I'm just glad Narcissa is happy ." I said honestly as I began to prepare more tea, Lucius nodded in my direction as he placed a cup in front of him.
" So, anything else to fix? What's our plan from now on? " Lucius asked as he sipped his tea. "And by the way, we need someone to clean this place and maintain the garden outside." Lucius added, I made a face.
"For that last bit, I was thinking of using Schiavo on almost everything in the house so they clean themselves? " I said more as a question while smiling nervously, Lucius grimaced.
"Sera, I say this with all due respect, but your Schiavos are a danger to us all," Lucius said dryly. I could feel Aria fidget in her dress form, and Cia glaring at him from her place at the table.
"They're not that bad." I pouted. Lucius stared at me blankly.
"Aria ended up burning all of the clothes you own, literally, and Ciara is filling the house with disturbing drawings of her burning, breaking, smashing, and brutalizing wands. In fact, she started transfiguring wands and made herself a wand throne!" Lucius exclaimed, looking slightly disturbed. I grimaced; indeed, Aria was still destroying my clothes. In fact, the only thing I had left was my Hogwarts uniform, which I had kept transmuting copies of when Aria continued to destroy them.
The only thing that wasn't being torn apart was my underwear. Still, pretty much the only thing I've had to wear outside of class hours was Aria, who adopted a simple, tight black dress. In fact, it was very similar to Fubuki's from One Punch Man. I had wanted to have a version identical to Tatsumaki's, for a greater range of movement, and most importantly, it was cut in sections, like straps. I could add more straps to make it resemble a Mistborn dress, but everyone firmly vetoed it.
Fools who don't see the genius of a mistcloak.
So, I was left with a full black dress, which was pretty modest, or not so modest. Aria hated baggy clothes, so the dress was so tight it clung to me like a second skin, leaving very little to the imagination. It didn't really bother me that much, so no issues there.
And regarding Cia, I don't really see the problem. Yes, for some reason, she has an absurd hatred for wands, but I found her wand throne adorable, and it's placed on my nightstand next to my bed. I didn't see anything strange about it at all.
"Alright." I surrendered to Lucius. "We'll see what we can do. I can buy some maids from the shop, or we can get some house elves." I made a face, maybe that of a house elf; Lucius nodded, seeming to agree. "Now, on another subject, there was something I wanted to give you." Lucius seemed curious and looked at me, intrigued. I pulled out my phone and bought the exact item I had already been eyeing.
Gale-Force Reading Glasses [-4] [184]
A relatively simple and minimalist pair of glasses appeared before me, and Lucius frowned as he looked at them.
"A magical item?" he asked. I nodded.
"They're called Gale-Force Reading Glasses, they're from a series called Fairy Tail, they're for you. They allow you to read information several times faster." I explained, Lucius opened his eyes wide and took them. "This version is only x32; it allows you to read 32 times faster, and the higher quality ones are scaled a lot more in terms of price." I grimaced; really, the x120 were stupidly expensive, at 20 credits, the same as Scissor Blades, which came out for. We'll see if it's worth the cost in the future.
"Wow." Lucius said excitedly as he took the glasses and put them on, a smile appearing on his face. "Yeah, yeah, just what I needed, I need to fill my power with all kinds of information to make it more efficient. This will help me a lot, thanks, Sera, I'll put it to good use." I nodded in his direction.
" I'll just borrow them sometimes when I need to do research."
"Of course, whenever you want." He nodded absentmindedly before setting his glasses down on the table and looking at me. "You got something for Cissy, something for me, is there something for you and Bella? " Lucius asked curiously, I hummed lightly.
"Just for Bella." I said honestly. "Read this." I handed him the phone, and he took it.
"Kazikli Bey: The Lord of Execution? " Lucius asked in surprise. He stopped to put on his glasses before quickly reading through all the information. A few seconds later, he finished reading. "First, the glasses work like a charm, and they are amazing." Lucius admitted as he took them off. "And second, it is a terrifying weapon." He added, horrified, before grimacing. "She's going to love it." I chuckled, "But doesn't she have weapons already?"
"I know, and yes, she has Casull and Jackal from Alucard's template; they're powerful ranged weapons, but I'm sure Bella would like something melee-based as well, and I thought, why not keep up with the whole Dracula and Vlad Tepes mythos? So I came up with Kazikli Bey, which would also maximize her use with the Gura Gura no Mi at close range. I don't really see her throwing a punch." I snorted at the image of Bellatrix fighting bare-knuckled. Lucius snorted, just as amused.
Kazikli Bey, the Lord of Execution. The weapon of Vlad III, the Lord Impaler, Prince of Wallachia, his Noble Phantasm. Once activated, it could reproduce the historical event of Vlad skewering twenty thousand Ottoman Turkish soldiers. Kazikli Bey can create twenty thousand stakes from the ground, which she can use to overwhelm his enemies; she could easily kill an entire army.
It really wasn't the strongest Noble Phantasm in existence. In fact, its stakes were weak. A Nasuverse heroic spirit could destroy hundreds or thousands of them, as they would only lose because they would be overwhelmed by the ridiculous number it could create almost instantly. So, it was good.
" Although I have some doubts, it specifically says that she needs to be in a domain marked as her home country or something similar. As is the case when Vlad III establishes domains with the Demonic Defender of the State skill. Does that mean Bella will only be able to use it in Britain? " Lucius asked, and I allowed myself to smile.
"Yes and no." I said mysteriously. "Three clues, see if you can piece it together. Era 2, Connection, Feruchemy." I could see Lucius' brain working rapidly before his eyes opened widely.
"Southern Scadrians!" he suddenly exclaimed.
"Exactly!" I snapped my fingers, agreeing with him. "In Mistborn Era 2, the Southern Scadrians use duralumin medallion with blank connections to create false connections with the territory they're in so they can speak the unknown language. I'm pretty sure that the connection can be manipulated so that instead of creating a 'homeland' connection, it could be more of an 'I own this territory' connection, perhaps storing the connection I have with this pocket dimension, if it works, the Noble Phantasm will be more than capable of activating without any problem, anywhere." I said excitedly.
"Yes, yes, yes, it could work, I have to read more about Kazikli Bey and this Vlad III, see his uses, but everything would fit, it would work." Lucius said while staring into space. I nodded excitedly.
"Yeah, and it's not too expensive, it's a B-rank Noble Phantasm, 20 credits to buy it, I'll talk to Bella and see if she likes the idea." I said while bouncing in my seat, and it wasn't expensive; most Noble Phantasms respected the following amount of credits.
D - 5
C - 10
B – 20
A – 50
EX - 100
With some notable exceptions.
"Anything else before I go talk to Bella?" I asked cheerfully, and Lucius nodded while blushing slightly.
"Yeah... ahem, potions." he said simply, embarrassed, wrinkling his nose as he tried to remember the potions inventory in the house.
"No contraceptives?" I asked to make sure, he nodded, "I'll prepare more," I said simply before stopping. After a few seconds, I moaned loudly in frustration
"Did something happen?" Lucius asked, I simply grabbed the phone and showed him the Perk I had forgotten to buy, Lucius raised an eyebrow and looked at me.
"And… why didn't you buy it before?" he asked dryly. I gave him an unimpressed look.
"Lucius, I'm a woman, I sleep with a woman, we don't really need birth control." I told him simply, and he wrinkled his nose before nodding.
Fertility Calibration: I was basically in control of the fertility of my subjects. I could activate or deactivate whether or not they could get pregnant, even if necessary, with the benefit that I could ignore birth control. I really forgot about it because, well... like I said, lesbian.
Sexual Calibration -2 [162]
"Okay, I'll keep it disabled forever. You'll have to let me know when you want to change it, or I'll see if I can put the company app on your computers so you can control it; you're basically the only one who will use it." I snorted in Lucius' direction. Lucius nodded.
"Thank you ." Lucius nodded, and I returned the greeting. "Now, before you go, I had a question, actually, it's more like curiosity," Lucius said curiously. I looked at him and raised an eyebrow questioningly. "Now, you have fangs, and now that Bellatrix also has fangs, is it awkward to kiss?"
I stopped and stared at Lucius blankly. I actually forgot most of the time that I had longer than normal fangs, so I wrinkled my nose.
"I actually forgot about my fangs." I told him honestly with a shrug. "But, at no point was it uncomfortable that I recall." I added, and he hummed in confirmation, standing up. "Well, if that's all, I'm going to go find the girls! It's always a pleasure chatting with you, Lucius! " I said goodbye as I grabbed Cia, the scissors, and the phone, as Lucius waved back at me.
-----------------------
Bellatrix and I were in our room. After handing the scissors to Narcissa and helping her form a deep connection with her so she could basically mind control her, I was able to escape with Bellatrix without getting into an awkward conversation. However, I had no doubt Narcissa would come looking for me sooner or later for that.
"I'm a witch." Bellatrix said dryly, and I grimaced. I had told Bellatrix all about Kazikli Bey and shown her several videos of its use.
"Well, yes, but you would be ignoring an important part of your powers; you are physically stronger, and have access to Haki." I tried to convince her, but she gave me a dry look.
"Like you, who are ignoring all your powers that enhance your physical abilities?" she asked sarcastically. I grimaced.
"Yeah, exactly, so what do you think? " I asked, ignoring her comment earlier, she rolled her eyes before humming in consideration, before nodding as a sadistic smile formed on her face.
"Well, I'm not opposed to the idea, I have some experience with daggers, and I'd rather use a gun than fight as a muggle." She wrinkled her nose. "Although I haven't the slightest idea how to handle a spear." She added, and I nodded, none of the templates gave her mastery with spears.
"We still have Koro-sensei, he's teaching Cissy sewing and me how to play various instruments, we could add spear lessons." I said easily, and really, Koro-sensei is a damn good teacher; he knows how to work with the company's talents excellently, so the learning pace is relatively high.
"Alright, buy it, I want to try it out. In fact, we're going to train. I really want to let loose, I want to test out all my powers. I want to see what my power is." Bellatrix said eagerly, battle lust rising. I grimaced, but nodded.
"Okay then, I'll buy the spear...ummm, according to this, just touch it and try to put your magic into it, you'll completely join the Noble Phantasm." Bella nodded and quickly bought the spear.
Kazikli Bey: The Lord of Execution [-20] [162]
A Spear fell between us; it was hard to really describe. It was barely shaped like a spear. Bellatrix reached out and took it in her hands. After a few seconds, it trembled slightly as the Noble Phantasm joined her. Slowly, a smile grew on her face.
"It's perfect." Bellatrix said with a huge smile. I smiled happily.
"Well, then, let's train?" I asked, she gave me a bloodthirsty smile.
"Come on."
