Dimensional Watch DxD Chapter 4 Summoning Caster
🕑 Added 2025-02-05 19:30:34 +0000 UTCFuyuki city, harbor, storage house, 6:15 pm
"Alright, I have placed a Boundary Field around the warehouse."
"A field what now." Issei asks, confused by the words.
"Just think of it as an invisible shield that can be made with magecraft to do specific instructions. I learned it through the Akasha Records. The one I placed basically hides our magical presence, as well as sound and smell, from the outside and warn us if any step inside the warehouse."
"Cool like the barrier around us, right."
"The one around you is a lot more special than this one. Yours is both a shield and barrier able to hide your presence and spiritually protect you from harm. Also, that one is always active seeing as this world will try to kill you if it is lowered. This one only needs a tiny drop of magic to keep it running and can go for hours."
"You think we can place one in Yuuka's home."
"We can but remember if anyone steps inside with experience in magecraft then they will instantly know about it. But I bet I can make it unnoticeable."
(What do we do now?) Ddraig says impatiently.
"First let me explain what we are going to be doing. Issei we are going to use the Grail to summon a servant, which is basically a reincarnated hero. The Grail divides these heroes among seven classes consisting of:
Saber, the Hero of the sword, heroes who are known to be agile, powerful in melee combat, and have adept swordsmanship.
Lancer, the Hero of the lance, heroes who are known to be quick on their feet, proficient with hit-and-run tactics, and skilled with spears.
Archer, the Hero of the bow, heroes who possess great eyesight and proficiency with a bow or other projectile weaponry. These heroes were said to hit targets at long distances.
Rider, the Hero on the mount, heroes known for taking up a mount in their lifetime. They're commonly known for riding living beasts, or human constructs.
Caster, the Hero of spells and sorcery, heroes known for their mastery of sorcery in their lifetime.
Assassin, silent killers as well as the Hero of assassination, heroes known for not have the most glorious of legends. They utilize killing a stealthy and covertly manner.
Berserker, mad warriors and the Hero of Rage, heroes who have gone berserk in at least one battle in their lifetime. These heroes trade their consciousness and sanity for power fueled by madness."
"So only seven heroes are summoned and why seven masters get to participate."
"That is mostly correct."
"Okay, how is it mostly correct."
"There have been people who have found loopholes in the rule book and have been able to summon more than one servant. Also theoretically if you have more than enough mana you can summon two or more servants, but the Magi of this world are no longer capable as they used to be and can barely summon one, so the Grail helps them by sharing a bit of its power. Also, the Grail only helps them with one servant."
(Interesting. How about partner, is he able to summon more than one?)
"Unless what Sherri."
"Nothing, I will tell you if it is possible and seek your approval. Now let's begin, master. Currently, all the Heroic Spirit classes are filled except Caster."
(What!? I wanted to summon a Berserker)
"Thank god. I don't think I could handle that."
"Now which type of hero do you want? Usually, the Magus uses a catalyst to summon a specific servant, but we don't need to worry. By myself, I can forcefully go inside the root and enter the throne of heroes to force a connection without the need for a catalyst."
"Sherri, just summon a busty onee-san and I will be happy."
(Of course, you'll say that. Just make sure you pick someone loyal. We don't need anyone backstabbing us.)
"Understood a loyal busty onee-san. That matches the Master's personality
Searching......
.........
Found."
"Alright let's start now."
"Don't you want me to tell you who it is?"
"Nah, I trust you found a good one."
"Alright, I'll show you. Issei you just say these words and I'll do the rest. If you feel a bit of pain just endure it please."
"Alright. Silver and iron to the origin. Gem and the archduke of contracts to the cornerstone. The ancestor is my great master Schweinorg."
A circle in the form of a crest came into existence, with a red dragon on the circle, humming and illuminating the room with a faint reddish hue, lightning bolts crackling at its edge.
"The alighted wind becomes a wall. The gates in the four directions close, coming from the crown, the three-forked road that leads to the kingdom circulate."
In the enclosed space a strong wind picked up, ruffling Issei's hair and clothes.
"Shut (fill). Shut (fill). Shut (fill). Shut (fill). Shut (fill). Repeat every five times. Simply, shatter once filled."
The air simmered above the circle, twisting in preparation to receive the presence that had yet to materialize.
"I announce. Yourself is under me, my fate (doom) is in your sword."
-----------------
In the empty void, she waited. Time had lost all meaning, space was but a subjective concept, but even though she could wait for eternally the absolute emptiness that surrounded her was becoming unsettling.
Silently she wondered how long she would have to wait in the darkness before she could finally stop being alone.
Then, her unspoken question found an answer.
"I announce. Yourself is under me, my fate (doom) is in your sword."
A young voice filled with uncertainty, yet she heard it clearly nonetheless.
"In accordance with the resort of the Holy Grail, if you abide by this feeling, this reason, then answer."
And answer she would. A push came from what could arguably be considered behind, propelled her toward an equally arguable forward.
"Here is my oath. I am the one who becomes all the good of the world of the dead; I am the one who lays out all the evil of the world of the dead."
A light opened before her and she could see again, hear again, smell again. The consistency of a body given shape once more assaulted her senses.
"You, seven heavens clad in three words of power, arrive from the ring of deterrence, O keeper of the balance!"
Light engulfed her.
------------------
As the light dims down in the warehouse Issei can finally see. What he saw was a sexy cute pink-haired, fox girl, with three tails and fox ears, in a blue kimono that shows her thighs and black stockings to her knees. But the most important thing was her oppais. They were big.
"I ask, are you my master?" The fox asks.
"Sure. Why not." Issei says still checking her out.
"My what a perverted master I have." The fox girl says feeling the intense perverted stare she was from her master. Lucky that brought Issei out of his daydream.
"Sorry, I'm Issei Hyoudou," Issei said, trying to be polite for his not so good first impression.
"Tamamo no Mae or Caster if you don't want the other masters to find out."
"Nah, I prefer your name than that code name. You can call me Issei."
"It appears the summoning was a success." Sherri's voice comes out surprising Tamano as she tries to locate it with a glare.
(Tamamo no Mae. If I remember right, that's the name of the sun goddess Amaterasu, when she came down to the mortal realm disguising her powers with a fake human body to play with the humans. She failed and couldn't hide all of it and became a kitsune. When she goes all out she becomes the Kyuubi.)
Again another voice, but this one was masculine full of power. She was filled with worry that the voice was revealing her past to her master before she had time to explain herself. She was scared her master would hate her just like the people from before. She keeps trying to find it until she looks at her master and suddenly a red light comes from his arm. What appeared was a red gauntlet.
"That is correct. She reincarnated herself into a human and lost all her power and divinity. She became a young girl that only wanted to learn what it meant to be human. To laugh, to cry, to love. But at the time tragedy struck and an onmyouji discovered she was no longer human. The people at the time started placing the blame on the emperor's sickness because she was no longer human in their eyes. She was quickly betrayed by the people she loved and was chased by an 800,000 army led by the emperor of Japan. She has killed many humans, too many to count. She killed so many that by the end she was called one of Japan's Three Great Monsters."
Again a feminine robotic voice was heard. This time she saw it was coming from the device on her Master's right arm. By the end of it, she was shocked they revealed everything to him and got scared that she would be hated again. That she would disappear without even completing or attempting her wish. All she did was stare at her Master's face and wait.
"Sniff, sniff" But she was surprised when she saw her master crying tears.
(Are you crying?)
"I can't help it. The story was really sad." Issei said, trying to wipe his tears.
"Master?" Tamamo was surprised and didn't know what to do.
Suddenly she was pulled into a tight hug into the arms of her master.
"You must have had it rough, not receiving any help, being hated by everyone and the betrayal of the people you loved. But don't worry from now on I'll protect you and give you a home." Issei said with his sincere words and a smile to make a promise that would last a lifetime.
Tamamo just hearing his words, his promise, receiving his warmth, receiving his love was suddenly becoming too much and tears were starting to form on her beautiful face.
She started to place her arms around Issei and give him a response.
"Do you promise that you won't betray me, to give me what I desire most, to never hate and abandon me." Tamamo said, hiding her face through his shoulder.
"Yeah I promise"
"Then I will be in your care through sickness and in health. Through good and bad. I will protect you and you protect me. Even in death, I will love you and only you."
"I'll do my best."
"Please do." A promise was made. One that would stand through the test of time.
Soon after the hug the two calmed down and again tried to introduce each other.
"So I guess you're my partner for this Holy Grail War."
"Yes, master. I am Caster. Can I ask you who those voices were?"
"Sure. Sherri, Ddraig says hello to our friend."
"Greetings I am Sherri, a personal AI made to help the user of the Dimensional Watch. It seems that the connection between Master and you is strong. I made the correct choice in choosing you as the servant."
Tamamo was amazed that the strange device was speaking
"Hello Sherri," Tamamo said bewildered. Then the red gauntlet started to shine.
(I am Ddraig, the Red Dragon Emperor. Hmmm. You are the sun goddess Amaterasu. With you by our side, the chances of winning have improved.) An arrogant rude voice came from the red gauntlet.
"What an interesting master I have. Master."
"Just call me Issei"
"Darling then. Just what are those two."
"Ddraig is a soul trapped in my body and Sherri is the most advanced technological machine you will ever meet."
"Master I told you. I have been upgraded into a mystic code for as long as I have a connection to the root."
"Alright, what does Sherri mean when she says she chose me?"
"I'll explain. You see I am connected to the root by the command seals on Issei's hand. By using that connection I summoned a caster that fits my master's taste. Tamamo no Mae, you wanted to be loved. That's good, my master wanted the same thing, so I predicted the connection would be a strong union."
"Wait does that mean you don't have a wish?"
"My only wish was to be a good wife and yours."
"Sherri you are amazing. Thank you. I don't have a wish. I have a dream, I am going to be Harem King!" Issei says that out loud with confidence while raising his fist in the air.
"What a perverted master I have. Fine am I the only one in your harem right now."
(Nope Issei already has two. A mother and daughter pair.)
Now that surprised Tamamo. She never thought he would already have women in it.
"You didn't use any underhanded tricks to those girls. Did you master?" Tamamo said out of anger that she wouldn't have him to herself.
"Tamamo, I would never do something like that." Issei said, firmly and offended at Tamano, for suspecting and accusing him of foul play.
"Gomen Darling I'll try not to think poorly of you. I will also try to get along with them." She realized that her words offended him and made him disgusted at the mere thought of him harming them. She quickly tried to apologize, but the damage was done.
"It's fine I guess we have just met, so you don't know me and I don't know about you yet. So let's get along." Luckily Issei doesn't have it in him to hold a grudge.
"I believe now is a good time to plan out how we are going to win."
(That's true I also want to get started. Sherri what information do you have of our enemies)
"I do have one question, master, what do you plan to do if you win."
"Nothing really I was just going to wish for porn magazines."
(What? Really?! You can have anything you want and that is what you would wish for.)
"Well, I never really thought about it. Tamamo what do you think I should wish for."
"Darling you shouldn't waste the wish for that. Plus you have me, you don't need those dirty magazines. How about the world's most comfortable tatami mat or maybe a vacation to a hot spring resort."
(Haahh, you're both idiots.)
"What was that you gecko!" Tamamo angrily said from being insulted.
(Bitch, who are you calling a gecko!) Ddraig argued back, setting a fight of insults between a goddess and a dragon.
"Enough Ddraig, Tamamo behave!" Issei yelled, finally annoyed by their argument.
"Sorry"/ (Fine)
"Master by now the supervisor of this war probably knows that the last servant has been summoned. If he knows then the rest of the Masters will start coming here. Currently, only four masters are in Fuyuki city including you."
"Sherri sure knows a lot. So who are the other masters."
"The other masters are Emiya Kiritsugu, the Master of saber and the representative of the Einzbern family, a skilled mercenary and a hitman who employs whatever he can use to accomplish his goals. He is a master of firearms, he is also able to accelerate his body a few seconds giving him a quick response through a bit of crude time manipulation."
"A hitman that can control time!"
(Don't get nervous you just have to get in close and personal.)
"You don't have to fight at all I'll protect you Master"
"Kirei Kotomine, the Master of Assassin, he is a priest and one of the church's Executors, he is capable of multiple forms of close combat and a student of Tokiomi Tohsaka. Currently, there is an alliance between the regulator of the church, Tokiomi Tohsaka, and Kirei Kotomine to win the Holy Grail"
"What's a church's executor?"
(Basically the church's lapdog. We have that in our world too. They are meant to deal with the supernatural that is a threat to the Biblical God's teachings, the church, or humans. Be careful around them, partner, most of them are nutjobs willing to kill what gets in their way.)
"Master, what does Ddraig mean by our world?"
"I'll tell you later, okay"
"Tokiomi Tohsaka, the Master of Archer, an arrogant and manipulative Magus, he is skilled in fire manipulation and employs a large ruby set at the top of a staff as his Mystic Code to help him shape and control flames. Currently, there is an alliance between the regulator of the church, Tokiomi Tohsaka, and Kirei Kotomine to win the Holy Grail"
"So, there's an alliance between two Masters and the church. That will be hard if we get attacked by two sides and can't escape. As strong as Tamamo is, I doubt she can deal with two servants at the same time."
"Darling, I can deal with them."
"But I don't want to risk it. We might have just met but already you are important to me Tamano." This makes her blush like crazy and possess a cute laugh.
"Waver Velvet, the Master of Rider, lacking in practical experience in the field of fighting in a war or combat"
"Kinda like me then. We are both in something that's bigger then we can chew."
(Nonsense I'm sure we can take this noob with our own hands)
"Kariya Matou, the Master of Berserker, his health is in question due to an experiment to significantly expanding his magic circuits and magical potential, severely lacking as a Magus, the high volume of magical energy required to maintain Berserker causes him constant, excruciating pain."
"Wait so he's dying. Is there a chance that is going to happen to me?"
(Another easy picking and don't worry your reserves aren't even close to empty even after summoning the fox)
"Kayneth El-Melloi Archibald, the Master of Lancer, a nobleman from the Magus Association, a traditional Magus, fights like one and believes the grail will be an honorable experience."
"Ddraig, Tamamo how do you fight magicians?"
"Sorry master I'm not the most suitable to tell you."
(Most Magicians fight in mid-range. Where they aren't too close to get hit by their opponents and aren't too far for their spells to miss. There are some that fight in close-range by controlling their magic through their bodies or weapon enhancing them to perform superhuman feats. Like what you did at the Hana's residence.)
"Currently the most dangerous threat for you. Is Kirei Kotomine since you do not have any form of combat training you will most likely lose against him. Emiya Kiritsugu is at most a close second if you are caught unaware. But that is less likely since you have me. The rest are easy to deal with when you meet them."
"That is true I have never been to a fight. Except for that time against that serial killer, but I don't think that counts. Since it was mostly me hitting him until he didn't get up."
(You don't need to learn crazy and flashy techniques in a fight. All you really need is experience. And the only way to get that is through extreme life and death fights and physical training.)
"Master you don't need to learn how to fight. That is why Masters have Servants so they can do the fighting in their place. I can fight for you and you just sit back and watch me, your beautiful servant, kick-ass." Tamamo says trying to convince Issei that he doesn't even need to do any part of the fighting.
Unfortunately, this gives the opposite reaction then what Tamamo hoped. Issei was someone who truly believed that a man should fight his own fights and not let anybody else get involved. For Tamamo to say that he shouldn't even take part was a huge blow to his pride as a man.
"Ddraig, Sherri, is there any way I can fight in equal terms with them and the servants."
(Of course, there is, just look at your left arm dumbass. The Boosted Gear is more than a Sacred Gear it's Mid-tier Longinus) Both Issei and Tamamo look at the red gauntlet in wonderment about what he meant.
(A Sacred Gear is only given the title of Longinus if it can do one thing. It gives the users the power to kill Gods) That revelation truly shocked Issei and Tamamo, to think inside Issei that he could be capable of achieving that feat.
"Are you serious?" Issei said, surprised.
"How is it possible for master to have this inside him?"
(That's right we haven't told you everything have we.)
"I'll tell you later."
"Moh. You keep telling me that. It's not good to keep secrets from your wife."
"The only reason I am not telling anything is that I don't want to repeat myself again when I tell the other people that we are living with. So please wait until we get to their house?"
"Fine." She said with a pout.
"Master while it's true to some extent on what Ddraig said. I believe knowing a few techniques can be useful, but we have no one to teach you. That is why I came to a solution. I will just use the Akasha Records and download all the Martial Arts that involve unarmed combat ever existed into your brain. That way you will have references on what to do with your body in situations that need to get physical."
"Isn't that cheating?"
(Who cares, it's your life that's in danger.)
"That's true. Is it safe?"
"It shouldn't be, but I'm here to regulate the information to make it safe. But you will feel an intense headache. As if someone was trying to tear it apart."
"Worst case scenario?"
"You become a vegetable."
"Fine." Issei just resigns to his fate.
"What? Darling are you sure." Tamamo says with freight.
"Yeah it's fine I trust Sherri to do her best." Issei said that while starting to close his eyes to calm himself.
"Understood now starting to download information into host memory. "
Soon memories that never existed started to appear as humans, gods, demons, monsters, Young and old, male and female kept practicing an art as old as the world existed.
10%.......20%
A headache started to form as the images kept coming faster.
30%........ 45%
The headache was getting worse but still bearable, the people kept practicing the art and in some way Issei started to admire them for their dedication to the art. He started to wonder if he could one day achieve the same feats as these Masters.
60%.........75%
The pain, it was stronger. He could barely think, but still, it was nothing compared to the amount of pain these people felt, but even through all that, they kept trying to improve themselves step by step, inch by inch.
85%............100%
Finally, the memories were slowing down. As the memories were ending Issei was now starting to be able to think. He saw many things, people that were successful in their search for strength and others who had lost their way through the endless journey. Issei truly admired them but there were some who found an easier way in their path towards strength by abandoning all kinds of distractions, their happiness, family, lovers, children. Most were successful in the end, but Issei thinks, no, he knows that they lived unhappily till the end. Issei just couldn't understand them, but was it wrong of them. A part of his very soul said yes. Those people could achieve the same heights if they had friends, lovers, children standing by that person's side through the bad and good. They and not just the practitioner could become strong.
(Partner!) A voice brought him back to his body and awakened him from his thoughts.
Slowly he opened his eyes and realized that he was on the ground kneeling. Slowly he turned his head to see the sight of Tamamo's teary face for some strange reason that made him feel like a bastard for causing her to cry.
He tries to get up to show that he was okay and tell her that he's fine. But his legs soon lost a bit of strength and he was about to fall down. Until he was caught by Tamamo herself.
"Darling, please tell me your okay?" Tamamo said with worry at the confused Issei.
"What happened?" Issei said weakly with a huge migraine.
"I'm sorry master I thought I could control the amount of information passing through. But it backfired and started to send more than I predicted."
"You stupid machine how could you not notice." Tamamo angrily said at Sherri for endangering Issei.
"Tamamo stop, don't be angry at Sherri. She did nothing wrong." Issei said, trying to calm Tamamo.
"No master. She is correct I could have killed you. I will fix this mistake, so it does not happen again."
(Did it work, partner. Do you now know how to fight.)
"I think so. Tamamo let me down so I can stand up."
Tamamo did reluctantly. But she still had a worried look. She soon relaxed as Issei was able to stand without any help. Then Issei did something amazing. He soon started to get in a stance unfamiliar to her and was soon punching the arm with complex movement. It was a little rough around the edges and slow since Issei's body did not have any muscle memory or reflexes to perform them fluently. But the amazing part was when he stopped and gathered his ki to punch the air and made a small burst of pressure.
(So it was a success. You still need training but you now know how to throw a punch in at least 1000 ways.)
"I'm glad. Master what was that strange way to use your life energy."
"I think it was called Ki in Japan. I just remembered a lot of martial artists use it to hit things harder."
"Well do be careful you are using your life energy and not your magic reserves. Master, there is still a lot to talk about. Like the servants and their abilities. Plus I also wanted to teach you a few spells for you to learn from the Akasha Records. But, I think that can wait until tomorrow, till I reach a solution to the problem. We also still have to explain the situation to Ms.Misuki, Yuuka, and Tamano."
"That's right! Damn, they must still be waiting for us to get home."
(Before we leave what do we do about the fox? She is not gonna blend in looking like that.)
"Don't worry I can change my appearance and hide my tail and ears."
Instantly Tamamo started to change as a bright light flashed and out came Tamamo without her three tails and ears. Her clothing also changed from the blue revealing kimono to a white and pink blouse that showed her red tank top, a black and red short skirt with black and red stockings.
"That's pretty cute Tamamo. Can you change your clothes to anything."
"Not just that master I can also change my voice, body, and face into anybody with my shape-shifting skill." Tamano said proudly while puffing out her impressive chest.
"That is another thing that I wish to speak about, but for now it is getting late."
After lowering down the boundary field, they then head to Hana's residence.
Fuyuki City, Mion residential district, Hana's residence, 8:15 pm
The two Hana women can be seen watching TV with a worried expression as they keep watching the door as if expecting another murderer will just barge into the room. Yuuka has now realized that this is the first time she was in her home without Issei.
"Yuuka don't worry he'll be back." Misuki-san realizing her daughter's fear tries to comfort her.
"I know Kaa-san, it's just I'm worried that Issei is lost in Fuyuki city. He said yesterday was the first time coming to this city and I doubt he truly remembers from just that one tour I gave him." Yuuka said lying to herself about the true reason.
"Knock, Knock!"
Suddenly the door is knocked startling the two Hana's.
"Yuuka, Misuki, it's me Issei." Issei's voice came from behind the door.
"Issei!" Instantly as if she teleported to the door. Yuuka practically forced open the door from its hinges to see her beloved. What she saw wasn't just her crush by himself, no leaning by his arm was a busty, otherworldly beautiful, pink-haired girl. When she saw the beauty, she didn't know what to feel. First, insecurity at having to deal with a rival like that. Second, worry at seeing the girl lean by his arm and trying to understand that meaning was she, his girlfriend, wife, childhood friend. Lastly anger at Issei for inviting a random girl to her home and at the girl for laying her hands at her man without her permission.
"Oh, my" That came from Kaa-san great so she sees her too.
"H-hey this my fr-friend Tammy and she has no- '' Issei was trying to explain the situation, but had a massive stutter, because of the murderous glare he was receiving from Yuuka. Tamamo wasn't making it any better by giving the same glare to Yuuka and Misuki-San.
"Haaa, Okay can I just come inside and explain everything in private. If you don't like it we leave?"
"Fine, it better be good." With that, Yuuka went inside and allowed Issei and Tamamo to enter.
As all four were sitting on the rectangular table Issei was busy trying to think how he would tell them delicately. Until the Dimensional Watch started shining to show that Sherri wanted to speak.
"Master, allow me to approach the subject?" Sherri spoke trying to get rid of the awkwardness. As the AI spoke, the two Hana's have a bewildered expression with the attention on the watch.
"Issei what is that?"
"My watch." Issei said. Not really sure why they are surprised.
"Yes, but why is it able to talk?" Yuuka said, trying to explain the obvious.
"Oh is it like in those spy movies where they have these futuristic devices to speak like a phone and hack into computers?" Misuki was enjoying herself at the thought of the boy being a spy.
"What no it-" Issei tried to explain he was interrupted by Sherri.
"Misuki-san, while it is true that I am capable of all that you said. I am more than a piece of cheap spy equipment. I am an AI meant to help the host of the Dimensional Watch."
"Artificial Intelligence" Yuuka said in disbelief.
"Wait, you can be a phone?" Issei asks, surprised.
"That is correct"
"Why is this the first time I heard of this."
"You've never asked."
"That's incredible, did you make this, Issei-kun?" Misuki said, thinking the boy in their home was some genius.
"What? Of course not. I didn't even know it can be used as a phone." Issei denied it.
"Why is it called the Dimensional Watch?" Tamamo asked about the watch that is somehow connected to Issei's existence.
"To answer Tamamo's question. The Dimensional Watch is an all-purpose magical tool meant for dimensional traveling."
"Dimensional traveling?" Tamamo asks unsure.
"Wait, it can do what?" Yuuka asks in confusion.
"Yes, able to travel through any barrier, connecting and linking the worlds to travel. Currently, we are in a different universe on Earth that has the same coordinates as Issei's World, but different and a bit into the past according to Issei about the date."
"And you expect us to believe you." Yuuka said slamming her hands on the table. Across from her Misuki had a look of disbelief.
"That does explain a bit." Tamamo had a look of understanding.
"How can you believe that ridiculous story?"
"Easy, unlike you. I'm not human." Suddenly fox ears and three tails came out of Tamamo's body, shocking Yuuka and Misuki into a state of disbelief.
"Tamamo you weren't supposed to expose yourself yet!" Issei yelled at Tamamo for being so reckless.
"But darling if you keep trying to explain the situation, then they won't believe you." Tamamo said with a whine.
(I agree with the fox, partner it's better to show proof and be blunt with the situation.) Ddraig quickly chipped in with the Boosted Gear coming into existence. Further shocking the two normal humans into a state of disbelief.
"THUD!!" Suddenly the sound of two people impacting the floor is heard.
"Ahhh, Yuuka, Misuki-san are you alright!?" Issei quickly goes up to both of them to check if they were okay.
"Ha ha ha" The sound of Tamamo laughing at the sight of the two humans now unconscious.
"Damn it Tamamo stop laughing and help me."
------------------
After an hour Yuuka and Misuki are seen nursing their heads on the couch with Issei fanning them. Tamamo was in the kitchen preparing a bit of food for her master wearing a pink apron with her tails out to adjust the two normal humans with the situation.
"So let me get this right you're not from this world?" Misuki forces her voice to come out to address the dragon in the room.
"Correct we are not from this world."
"Inside of you is a thousand-year-old red dragon that was sealed by the biblical god. To be given as gifts to humans, so that they may be able to fight the supernatural." Yuuka chimed in trying to be nonchalant about it.
(I am not just any old dragon. I'm the Heavenly Red Dragon Emperor of Domination. Created out of the concept of pure power and legend, I am much older than a thousand.)
Ddraig said hotly about being referred to as just some random dragon.
"R-right my apologies then." Yuuka answered with a sweat drop at the overgrown lizard. "And Tamamo is the reincarnation of Tamamo no Mae. One of Japan's Three Great Monsters, known for the endless disaster that happened at the end of the Heian era." Yuuka said, a bit scared that such a monster was in her home.
"Scared little girl." Tamamo said with a wicked smile on her face.
"No." Yuuka said with confidence.
"Hohh, Why would that be."
"Because I know, if you were to try to hurt me, Issei would stop you." Yuuka says with confidence that surprised Tamamo at how assured she was in Issei protecting her.
"Aren't you full of it."
"That's fine because I know it will happen. After all, he did it even when we were just strangers."
"Well don't be so full of it, cause I know he would do it for me too." Tamamo argued hotly being a bit territorial of Issei.
"I would do it for both of you. So please, no more arguing" Issei said not wanting the both of them to fight.
""Fine"" Both said trying to keep the peace and Issei happy, but both still see each other as rivals for his attention.
"There something I want to know?" Misuki finally commented.
"What is it?"
"You said that there is going to be a war that will happen in Fuyuki city. If that's true then what are we going to do? If it is true what will happen to us?" Misuki said, scared for her and her daughter's lives.
"Best case scenario, nothing, you two have no connection with the supernatural and should not be important enough for the Magus that will participate to notice. Worst case, death, because of your affiliation with us or possibly by being in the wrong place at the wrong time, you would be pursued and killed for witnessing the war. Please understand, Magus are heartless people that won't be stopped by anyone if they get in their way. The rules state that if any people were to witness the Holy Grail War then they must be killed to silence them and not expose the secrecy of the supernatural."
The answer quickly brings an air of silence with the humans in a state of shock.
"Then what are we going to do?" Misuki says with urgency and distress.
"This is why Issei wanted to tell you the truth. So you can make a decision on what you want to do."
"Everyone has the right to make their own decisions. I thought it was unfair that because of me you two would be hurt and wanted you two to have a way out."
"Make a decision?"
"Correct. The first choice is that you can leave Fuyuki city for two weeks. By then the war will be over and life will return to normal. We would also no longer be here and out of your lives, so that you may live peacefully. Unfortunately, we would have to erase your memories of us."
"What!?" Yuuka said in disbelief that she would practically forget about the boy who saved her and changed her world.
"Please understand it would be for your own protection. In this moonlit world, they would silence anybody that has nothing to do with the supernatural, in order to keep their secrecy of magic hidden."
"I refuse!"
"Yuuka" Misuki said, shocked.
"Issei, why can't you run away with me?"
"Sorry, I'm sort of going to be participating in the war. So I can't leave since I'm a part of it."
"Yeah, darling and I are going to fight for our marriage. Those other servants better watch out."
When Yuuka heard this it affirmed her resolution to stay. "I will stay. I refuse to forget and act as if I never met you. Sherri, what's the other choice."
"The other choice is to stay and Issei will try to protect you until it's time for us to leave this world. When that happens, the two of you will join us to that world. If you choose that one, you will have to abandon the life you had here. Abandoning your home, friends, and family."
"Sherri don't scare them like that, we could always come back here, right?"
"Master, it would be better for them to prepare for a situation in which the chances of returning are slim. Making this decision is a life-changing action and makes them think things through."
"Alright, I will come with you." Yuuka says this with determination and interrupts the argument between Issei and Sherri.
"Are you sure? What about your friends and life here? Won't you be sad to leave your home." Issei says bewildered.
"It's fine because I'll have you and mom with me. Besides, I always wanted something interesting to happen." Yuuka's answer brings a blush to appear in Issei's cheeks making Tamamo jealous about the points the girl was winning over her.
Misuki seeing the determination in her daughter's eyes brings out a sigh at seeing her stubbornness and quickly accepts the craziness.
"Fine. If your mind’s made up I will go with you."
"Really Kaa-san! Yatta!."
Issei
hearing the words of Yuuka and Misuki-san really touch him and silently made a promise to protect them and give them a better life.
