FATE of DxD

More Servants in the Bag



"I see we've got ourselves a bunch of peepers . . ." Jun commented.

Everyone was not really sure how to respond.

"Well, let's just finish this shall we?" Jun said to his Servants.

"Music to my ears master!" Mordred spoke, locking her sights on Semiramis.

"Understood master." Atalanta accepted the command.

"Wait a moment!" Jeanne called out.

"What is it Ruler?" Jun asked.

"What are you?" Jeanne asked.

"Although your interest is flattering . . ." Jun started, making the holy maiden blush.

"I fail to see why I should reveal such secrets in public." He concluded.

"Right! I apologize:" Jeanne coughed and hid and embarrassment.

"Still, Amakusa Shirou must be dealt with or he might become a threat to humanity if he manages to obtain the grail." She declared.

But suddenly, Shirou was run through by a poisonous chain.

"Se-mi-ramis! W-Why!?" Shirou coughed out blood.

"When I accepted you as my master I told myself I would do one of two things. Either see you through your success or enjoy you suffering and despair at the moment you fail. I'm afraid you failed master." Semiramis smiled, she then looked at Jun.

"Do you dare?" She asked with a smirk.

"Why wouldn't I?" Jun asked back and they sealed a contract, leaving everyone stupefied at what had just happened.

"Okay then, I was planning on finishing everyone now but since this is now the property of my Servant, I don't wish to damage it, you may flee members of the Black Faction, we'll settle our fight in a while." Jun declared.

The expressions of the servants of black hardened except for Berserker who seemed to approach Jun with a curious expression and a green spark of electricity flowed between the two.

After that, Jun instantly understood her. Frankenstein had been looking for a partner, someone who was like her and Jun's Tonitrus made him just that, more like an enhanced version her system in fact. And so, with her wish in front of her, why would she care about something like the Holy Grail War.

A few moments later, Jun had yet another servant and the black Faction was left with only Archer and Rider, Chiron and Astolfo.

"I have to say. Even I wasn't expecting this!" Jun exclaimed while patting Frankenstein, much to her delight. Semiramis, Atalanta and Mordred just looked at him, wondering what more secrets he was hiding.

"Since you are not leaving do you want to settle things now?" Jun asked.

"Let's go." Chiron said decisively, his thoughts his own.

"EH!? But! Aww . . ." Astolfo clamored before following Chiron out but Caster remained.

Jun surmised he wanted to defect as well but he was not interested in him, since Caster was quite weak. He gave the signal to Mordred and, before Avicebron could even speak, his read rolled. Jun collected his and Shirou's remnants as well as the latter's Command Spells and turned to Jeanne.

"Anything else Ruler?" Jun asked.

"I . . ." Jeanne was at a loss.

"We can talk after the war is over. I can keep you around so we can discuss things at length without you breaking your neutrality." Jun said and Jeanne lit up with a smile and nodded before saying goodbye and running off.

'There are a lot of things I need answers for after all!' She righteously though.

"I doubt that girl even realizes why she didn't want to leave." Semiramis commented with a smirk.

"She's a holy maiden after all." Jun added.

Jun then brought out Jack and Penthesilea.

"Berserker of Red and . . . Assassin of Black!?" Semiramis was shocked but even more certain of her previous decision.

Jack immediately clung to Jun while Silea fell onto a single knee.

"For granting my deepest wish, and guiding me to the light despite by lack of reason, the loyalty of I, Penthesilea, Queen of the Amazons is forever yours, master." She swore.

"I will endeavour to always be worthy of that oath Silea." Jun replied and Penthesilea smiled as her body changed.

She took her adult form who had once been called the incarnation of beauty. She was truly a sight to see but Jun's reflection possessed eve more potent charm so he was not affected.

"So this is the grown up you . . . Beautiful indeed." Jun honestly commented.

"Not as beautiful as you master." Silea teased.

"I guess I'm always the best even when I have no wish to be." Jun joked.

"Right! I've got something to do so you girls can get acquainted while I take care of it, I don't want to hear of any death or injury when I come back." Jun warned before disappearing.

"And he's gone . . . ?" Atalanta was confused.

"Don't worry, he'll be back!" Mordred said before going out to explored the Hanging Gardens, meanwhile Jack seemed to take a liking to Frankenstein so she dragged her around, talking about Shiki all the type which she seemed to appreciate.

Atalanta and Semiramis were a bit at a loss but decided to just wait for Jun's return.

As for what he was doing, Shiki was inside his inner world, making some preparations for his connection to the root and preparing presents for everyone.

He was going to install a change form function into Fran's Bridal Chest and seal her Mad Enhancement, allowing Fran to activate it only when she wished.

Jun also decided to prepare the finest Golden Apples for Atalanta which would have the special effect of granting her a blessing so that she could activate and deactivate her Agrius Metamorphosis at will without issues an maintaining her sanity.

Mordred would get an Avalon like scabbard but with lesser abilities since Divine Constructs were harsh to make without a catalyst from DxD and give Jack the abilities of her Berserker counterpart.

Finally, for semiramis, he was going to give her a luxurious accessory with a reality marble where she could store her Hanging Gardens so it was not so cumbersome to move around and allow her to receive the benefits she would get if she was inside as well as summon parts of it as needed.

Jun returned a couple of days later and Semiramis wanted to complain but when she saw a much better and more luxurious version of her favourite necklace in his hand and hear of its functions, her tone changed.

"Your tribute is most pleasing, you are forgiven." She stated.

Atalanta ate her gift with gusto and really appreciated its special effect since her most powerful noble phantasm was truly too dangerous for such a use.

Mordred looked like a happy kid with a new gift and Jack also looked very pleased, mostly with her ability to change forms as she transformed her clothes several times while asking her "father" if she was cute and happily giggling when Jun answered the cutest but mostly ignored the actual power of the change.

Fran had an unexpectedly cute voice.

"Thank you master! I love you!" Were her first fluent words and they pierced Jun's heart like an arrow of love, with the purity and sincerity behind that statement stealing his hear to the point he said "I love you too!" back on impulse.

Once everyone had their gifts, Penthesilea's being her fated battle, Jun addressed everyone.

"This is commemoration for you all becoming my Servants, our war is nearly done but my road goes much further so I would ask you to stay with me for the duration, even if my road does not have an end." He started.

"The choice however is yours. There will be battle, worthy allies, powerful enemies and for you all. The only thing I can promise is to do right by you and give you eternity and the power to enjoy it." Jun continued.

"I have a use for this holy grail which is why I'm here, not a wish but a use, so you will not have your wishes granted, tough luck but it is how it must be, I'll find ways of making it up to you should you decided to stick around, just like Silea had her wish granted by me rather than the grail."

"That is all! Now let me bring you to your new place of stay. Semiramis, please put away your Garden after we exit it." Jun concluded.

While they each had their own thoughts on Jun's speech, it was clear that he wasn't looking for an answer now. Penthesilea knew he already had her answer. Jack and Mordred were just happy to be with him so the speech was actually for the other three.

Whatever the case, after they jumped down from the Gardens and Semiramis stored them, Jun brought everyone into his inner world whose core he had reorganized.

"This is my inner world, a reality marble and my greatest noble phantasm, Null Myriad, and also your new home should you choose to stay." Jun declared.

"The Mana here. It's as pure as that of the Age of the Gods! Maybe even more!" Atalanta said with shock.

"It's my magical energy. It comes directly from the Root and it should improve even more soon enough." Jun explained which only shocked them more.

"The palace over there is the representation of my soul and where we will be staying. The sun in the Sky is my Dragon Heart and the land my body." Jun explained.

The girls felt flattered that he had trusted them enough to bring him to such an intimate place and not even Semiramis could take such an act for granted and knew that any misstep here would ruin any possible future with her perceived consort forever so she was unusually good behavior.

"I wanted to show you this world as a gesture of trust but drastic changes will be occurring soon so we will have to move to a prepared reality marble." Jun said.

A luxurious home with countless amenities and delicious food that left even the very picky and demanding Semiramis utterly satisfied was shown to the girls while Jun left again. The reality marble was in Imaginary Space so no one could easily reach it.

It was time for major evolution . . .
