First off, you surge the magical energy you are providing to your two Servants in order to overcharge them. You've got an unlimited supply now, so there's really no harm in giving them as much magical energy as they can both hold. "Medea! Bombard him with spells! He should be less resistant to your magic!" Thank you, Alítheia, you didn't expect her blessing to come in handy in a scenario like this, but then again, you also weren't expecting to be facing off with any more dragons in the future.

"Understood!" Medea launches herself upwards, and her wings begin to glow with power as dozens of magic circles appear around her as she prepares to launch a rain of light towards Orochi, who simply smirks, there's only a few seconds until the activation of her magecraft, but Orochi still doesn't seem to care in the slightest. Despite the circumstances, the divine spirit is still taking things remarkably well, and you begin to wonder whether or not he's truly not intimidated at all by your amassed forces. You've got Arcueid with you, so he should at least be worried about her, right? You begin to gather more energy, even though you've got an unlimited supply now, you don't have an unlimited output, and the next step in your plan to obliterate Orochi alongside his soul will need more magical energy than you can carry naturally in your magic circuits right now.

"You've gotten more powerful, I can see that much, however, I think that it's about time I evened the odds a little, I think it might get a little boring if I were to kill you individually, so..." With a sharp nail, Orochi slashes the palm of one of his hands, before flicking the blood in front of him in a line. "Arise!" Suddenly, the blood that was splashed on the floor surges upwards and begins to start replicating itself until it looks like a huge wall of blood blocking your path, but soon the wall divides itself into eight distinct shapes. Eight hydra-like beasts five times the size of elephants each with eight heads stand in your way now. Orochi is capable of this level of summoning?! What's more, you can determine from but a glance that these beasts are linked directly to the will of Orochi, so any hope that you might have of trying to command them yourself is doomed!

"What, you're going to hide behind a bunch of summoned beasts now?!" You yell at Orochi, who doesn't answer you. In fact, you can't even see where he's gone! Damn it! Is he hiding somewhere? You finally let loose a beam of pure manifested truth, aimed directly at one of the beasts, the beam itself is only about the size of your torso, but still leaves a great wound in the chest of one of the false Orochi, you consider for a moment, moving your hand to the left or right in order to create a great sweeping blade of truth energy to kill all of the beasts at once, but the energy you gathered simply didn't last long enough for that. You have a tremendous amount of magic circuits, but you just don't have the output to keep that level of an attack up for more than a few seconds! Damn truth magic and its exorbitantly high magical energy cost! You recover back to your maximum energy instantly, yet if you want to use another one of those lasers, you're going to need to spend more time charging. About ten seconds was all that you needed to create one about the size of your torso, so twenty seconds should be enough to create one the size of a human body and forty seconds should once again double the diameter of the shot. While there's almost nothing that could withstand being hit by an attack like that laser beam, it's clearly more suited to precise destruction than complete obliteration, especially without a huge reservoir of magical energy like Alítheia's. It might be possible for you to replicate her first attack though, the one that caused an implosion into nothingness, but seeing as even Alítheia needed to charge that attack up, it's likely that it needed hundred of thousands or potentially millions of units of magical energy to actually activate! Even with an unlimited supply and an output as great as your own for a human at five thousand units of magical energy output, you would still need to spend a great deal of time channeling magical energy to have any success in replicating the effects of Alítheia's usage of truth as a tool to erase things completely.

Unbelievably, the huge hole that you just fired into one of the summoned beasts begins to heal itself without any issue! No way! You're sure that you managed to hit at least one vital point! Regardless, your beam dealt no lasting damage to one of the eight beasts that are now charging towards you and your allies, however...

Hundreds of purple beams suddenly come crashing downwards as Medea finishes the preparations for a truly devastating spell, and the false Orochi all look upwards in surprise before each are pierced hundreds of times by spears of unending purple light. Their tough draconic hides offering no resistance to the magic of the woman with Alítheia's blessing. Medea's onslaught of magic only lasts for about half a minute, but in that time, the eight summoned beasts have been rendered into hole ridden corpses. Medea floats back down to the ground with a smug expression. "Is that really the extent of your summoning, Dragon God? I must admit, I was expecting them to be a little more... impressive." She's clearly enjoying herself at having so easily slain the monsters, but unbelievably, despite the state of their bodies which should've been completely impossible for any creature to survive, each and every one of the ragged looking false Orochi stand up once again, the thousands of wounds collectively inflicted upon them smoking as new flesh replaces that which was erased by the spears of light. Damn it! Are these things invincible or what?!

"The heads!" Mordred suddenly calls out. "Isn't it obvious? If you want these bastards to stay dead, you need to go after the heads!" You don't know just how she managed to figure that out, and you chalk it up to her Instinct working on overdrive, but it makes sense that piercing attacks wouldn't be effective on beasts like these. They've almost entirely recovered now, and have begun to charge towards you once again.

Calling in 30.

Would Betty's witch trial work on these?

Shinji could even mock him about hurting himself if it did.

>>4697349
Thats.....a good question actually. I wanna say....maybe.

>>4697349
Man, we've forgotten every other ability of Betty ever since we found out about her eyes. But I think she can't control Witch Trial yet.

>Try to wield the Second True Magic through the Kaleidostar (To do what?)
Regarding this option from previous thread.
If we had any real practice with swords we could have tried to do our own version Tsubame Gaeshi with sword of truth.
I am not sure we can replicate its effects with bajiquan or Killings Arts.
>>4697349
Betty can probably use her new extra magical energy to summon some really strong creatures. Like hounds of Tindalos or dimensional shamblers. Shamblers are interesting option because they could potentially just drag Orochi out of this world.
Alaya and Gaia might not like it but I imagine Orochi destroying country or two is not ideal for them too.

>>4697368

>>4697368
We have Arcueid with us though and the summons could distract her. Probably better not use them when she's involved.

>>4697369

>>4697370
She took it better than Lugh but yeah it will probably unnerve her.
Still worth considering if all else fails to do the job.

I feel like we should try using our marble here shinji's main problem with his marble is the cost but while we're mahou shounen we have infinite mana i think this the proper set up to use our marble.

>>4697377
WhatIs has warned us against trying to bruteforce the marble like that. It's not just a question of power, none of the previous verses have come as a result of an increase in our raw power.

>>4697377
we can only use a Reality Marble in moments of maximum hype

"We'll kill them all at once! Mordred, can you get into position so that you'll be able to kill as many as possible with your Noble Phantasm at the same time? Arcueid, can I ask you to do the same?" You quickly bark out some requests to your allies in the few moments that you have before the many headed snake monsters reach you all. You get two quick nods in return, and both Mordred and Arcueid disappear with speed faster than you eye can track, each going to one side of the line of monsters.

Of course, you aren't going to just stop there. While you may have sorted out an offensive approach to dealing with these beasts, you aren't just about to leave the rest of your allies defenseless, so once again you call upon the unlimited energy that is available to you to create a mighty shell around you and your allies, shielding you all from the attacks of the beasts as they finally close the distance, their fangs skittering uselessly across the surface of the golden orb as if it were made of unbreakable glass. You almost laugh at the dumb creatures before your attentions shifts onto Mordred, and you notice that Caliburn Camlann is shining with far more magical energy than a weapon should be capable of handling! Is she trying to destroy her own weapon or something?!

"Disappear into the light of the Holy Sword of Paradoxes! Caliburn Camlann: Overload!" Mordred brings her sword of red light down, and a great curtain of red light shoots forth from it, the red light consumes the beasts that it touches, and at that moment you understand that through the power of being a sword forged of paradoxes, it really does have a destructive power equal to Excalibur itself. Mordred angles her shot so as to avoid hitting you or Arcueid, so the curtain of light only strikes four of the beasts, though they are immediately disintegrated upon being touched by the red curtain of death that approaches them at speed even a Servant would be incapable of reacting to.

Status Updated!

At the same time as the red light of Camlann engulfs the beasts, you notice that tens of thousands of cuts begin to appear all over the bodies of the four false Orochi closest to Arcueid, deep cuts separating not just the heads from the bodies, but as the atmosphere around the beasts has turned into a storm of millions of cutting blades of wind, the entire forms of the four beasts are quickly diced into tiny chunks, then even those chunks are further destroyed by the power of Arcueid's Marble Phantasm, and soon all that remains of the four beasts closest to her are four large puddles of blood.

The light from Mordred's attack soon disappears, and you disable the shield you had erected around you and your other allies for a moment to inspect the damage. On Mordred's side, all that is left of the beasts are scattered ashes, and on Arcueid's side, the aforementioned puddles of blood. You... really weren't expecting the mighty looking magical beasts summoned by Orochi's power to be taken out with such little difficulty by the two women, but you certainly aren't going to complain, now the only question left to ask is where exactly has Orochi gone? You can feel his presence all around you as a result of his overwhelmingly powerful spirit, but as a result you can't quite pinpoint him.

"Come on out, cowardly snake!" You yell into the empty woods, and earn only the whispers of the trees as a response. "I know that you're here. Orochi! You can't run away from me!" You try to taunt the Snake God, but then an idea forms. "Arcueid, you've got senses beyond anyone else here, tell me, do you notice anything?"

"I can tell that he's close, but... I can't pinpoint his location!" Damn it! So even Arcueid is having the same problem as you? Where the hell did Orochi go?! Did he really just decide to bail on the fight after summoning some monsters that you dealt with easily?! As you keep looking around, you notice that the pool of blood has vanished entirely, was it... already absorbed into the ground? You look for the ashy remains of the other four snakes from Mordred's attacks, and realize that they to are gone, and at that moment, you get... almost a premonition of danger. None of those snakes were actually killed! You may have managed to disrupt their current forms and ability to regenerate, but you finally realize just what those snakes were! Each one... Each one was a single head of Orochi! He had decided to attack you with each individual body by themselves, but the lack of any remains tells you that Orochi is trying to trick you into thinking that you won while he regenerates! He's planning to ambush somebody, but who?! Who could he be planning to attack?!

Realistically these are his targets, though Targeting Arcueid and Mordred due to their power also doesn’t seem entirely out of the question.

>>4697400
If he’s hiding in the ground, could we affect the surface to be impenetrable so when he surges forth he will bonk himself against it?

>>4697435
Not much to go on, and I agree with the others that Tamamo's the more likely target.

>>4697435
>Paradox Reincarnator
>Sword of Paradoxes
I like how Mordred is using Instinct in non-combat situations. It is really flattering.

>>4697435
It’s more than it seems important and if unsure we’re afraid to choose poorly.

I’d say it should be either Shinji or Medea on account of presumed squishiness.
It would make more sense for it to be us because taking us out would also neutralize or weaken our Servants, but it could be Medea to make us suffer. Tamamo is also valid option, reasonably Mordred or Arc are too. Not sure about Morgan or Betty and I bet I’m forgetting something important...

I made the original suggestion and it was very much not a troll option. When Orochi simply T-posed through 4 tailed Tamamo's Witchcraft made with prep time which typically bypasses Magic Resistance and we have an infinite mana source that's only gated by embarrassment its not worth hesitating for the scenario to get worse.

>>4697476
Just woke up and read through everything unfortunately. Figured it was worth a shot. Wasn't fast enough

>>4697467
You showed him as the most terrifying enemy we have faced yet. With deadliest mix of all kinds of abilities all of which have great synergy.
I am sure most anons drawed parallel with Fate route and fight with Berserker in the forest. But instead of doing threesome in some shack we did risky power up at the yet undecided cost.

>>4697472
If you are this salty and realized that a majority of the people were okay with the mahou shounen vote, then why do you keep rallying to punish both the people who voted differently from you, and the people who will keep playing after this? What totalitarian state were you born from that made you THIS bitter and want to punish people who dissagree with you anon? If something as simple as one vote that you dissagree with caused you to call for severe punishment of everyone playing for thinking differently compared to you, then don't play a multi player 4chan story in the first place anon. Let it go and stop being childish.

>>4697476
Well, you're probably the only one. But I appreciate your writing, and that's why I'm still following.

What, do you even know how to read? You claim to be against the troll post but you're acting just like one honestly. Suck it up, the fun vote passed ONE time in the whole story and I and a majority of people enjoy it. Deal with it and stop trying to punish other players, especially players who didn't vote for the mahou shounen thing in the first place. Not everyone is as bitter as you to call for consequences for two threads straight, that is not discussion, that is just being a sore loser.

>>4697547
did we just incarnate yamato no orochi for real

If Orochi is going to go after somebody, then it's either going to be you or Tamamo! With that in mind, there's only one solution! You quickly dash backwards, grab Tamamo by the arms, and take to the skies with her. "H-husband?!" You ignore her words as you get away from the ground.

"Everyone! Prepare yourself! He's hiding in the ground!" You yell to your grounded allies, who all prepare themselves for the emergence of Orochi, you don't know where he's going to come out from, but you begin to prepare another beam to fire directly at him the moment he emerges. Ten seconds pass, twenty seconds pass. The earth starts to shake and rumble, and another twenty seconds pass, you're confident that a well aimed shot will be able to evaporate the body of one of those beasts entirely, and leave him nothing to reform them with. Come on... Thirty more seconds pass, and you start getting nervous.

Finally, the wait ends, and Orochi finally begins to reveals himself, though instead of the Relatively manageable size he had before, the head emerging from the ground now is huge! Where before each head wasn't really that large, the head spearing upwards towards you and Tamamo is easily as wide as a bus, and as tall as the Einzbern Castle! Your allies on the floor are plunged into disarray as the earth quakes about them, and only Arcueid and Mordred manage to remain stable on the shifting ground as the great snake head emerges from the ground.

"Take this, you bastard!" You scream as you let loose a beam of truth far larger than the last, whereas last time your beam was merely around the size of your torso, this time though the beam is large enough to envelop the entire head of the beast as it tries to bite both you and Tamamo, and without resistance, the enormous head of the snake is erased entirely, blasting a deep hole into the ground that likely continues for hundreds of meters. You aren't nearly foolish enough to be deceived into believing that you've beaten Orochi just yet though, so you don't let up, and begin to charge another attack. "Everyone! Get ready for another to show up! We're going to need to utterly destroy all eight of his heads before we can stop him!" You command your allies, and after readjusting themselves and getting used to the new inhospitable terrain, prepare for another colossal snake head to pierce the ground.

"Arcueid! Watch out!" It's Mordred who first notices the danger, and Arcueid, for all her strength, was completely unaware. Mordred's warning comes just too late to stop Arcueid from getting one of her legs snatched by the jaws of a comparatively much smaller snakehead from the ground, and unbelievably, it tears her leg from her body.

The girl grits her teeth, ignoring the pain as the snake head suddenly descends back into the ground before she can retaliate with a fierce blow that had the snake not moved immediately, would've turned it into pulp. Seeing this, you drop to the floor with Tamamo still in your arms before you gently put the woman down on the ground. "Arcueid! Are you alright? Can you regenerate, or do you need me to heal your wound?" Just as you answer the woman, her leg begins to heal before your eyes, her regenerative abilities at fifty percent of her powers being capable of healing this wound and far more.

"Sorry, I just... got careless, I wasn't expecting that." The girl sounds apologetic regardless, and you try to give her a reassuring smile. It's bad that she was hurt, but Orochi is kind of an idiot if he decided he was going to attack the person you have with you with the fastest regenerative ability.

"It's not a problem, just... be on your guard for the next attack. Orochi isn't some mindless beast, he's attacking us with the tactical cunning of one of the deadliest magi of the modern era. Deceit and trickery are terrible tools to be in the arsenal of somebody as cunning as Zolgen Makiri once was." While Zolgen may have little influence on the actions of Yamata-no-Orochi, it is very clear that the deity is putting his intelligence to a tremendously terrifying effect.

Then, unexpectedly, there's a flash of red light from the hole in the floor, and Arcueid suddenly drops to the floor in agony. Before you can ask her what's gone wrong, the tremendous heat from the flash of light causes you to take note of it instead... it's... it's more like a beam! A beam of pure destructive energy. There's... There's far too much power! What... What happened to Orochi down there? A figure floats upwards out of the red pillar of energy, and laughs wildly as he does so. "Such divine flesh, despite lacking any divinity! Right now, I feel as if I could consume the entire planet!" Orochi emerges from the pillar of energy, which dissapears behind him, and where before his energy was suffocating, now it is truly crushing. What... What the hell?!

Status Updated!

No... No way! He... managed to steal some of Arcueid's power for his own?! Is that even possible! "Arcueid, did he... did he just do what I think he did?!" You yell in alarm. This... This is the worst case scenario! He's... He's a Beast now!

"I did, a pity I was only capable of stealing half of the White Princess' current available power, but I doubt I would've been met with much success if I attempted to consume her utterly." Orochi looks impossibly smug. "I suppose that you could call me a 'Beast' now. It seems that the consumption of her flesh caused me to ascend to the next stage of existence for a Divine Spirit." Where before, you were fairly certain that Alítheia would be capable of defeating this dragon, you... aren't so certain anymore.

"M-my powers! I can't use my magic!" Medea suddenly shouts in panic, and the look of panic on her face is replicated by Tamamo. Damn it! Both of the girls must've been unable to resist the effect of his Nega-Skill! That means that the two previously powerful Casters have been reduced to nothing but dead weight! This... This is a disaster!

"Now, I believe that it's time for you to all die." Orochi seems to prepare himself to attack, before suddenly, there's a presence behind him that appears too quickly for him to react to!

"Hiken. Tsubame Gaeshi!" A perfectly executed triple sword slash from behind cuts Orochi into pieces, the fleshy body of Zolgen Makiri offering Yamata-no-Orochi no defense against the biting steel of Monohoshizao, and the man you had last expected to see, never mind come to you rescue shows himself fully. Sasaki Kojiro?! How? And... Saber!?

The swordsman flicks the blood clean off of his blade, and already the body of Orochi begins to make attempts to put itself together again." Now, If I might make a suggestion, we should all run. This is an opponent beyond all of us." You know there's no use arguing against somebody like Sasaki, he's probably been observing this entire battle from the beginning, and with Eye of the Mind (False) at A+ rank for some reason, you already know that his summation of things is guaranteed to be correct. You have so many questions, but you know that Sasaki is right and now is definitely not the time to ask them. You clearly need to run, but where?! Teleportation isn't possible right now, not with Medea rendered powerless! This is the sort of opponent that you need everyone together to have a chance at defeating!

even if Manaka's not on our side, I doubt she'd be willing to just let orochi fuck the temple up and cause a scene big enough to get counter guardians involved more than they are

hmmmk so time to backline anyone Divine except maybe Gil as Enkidu should still work for restraints, but its a clash of two concepts here as snek is very much divine but is apparently immune to divine constructs.

>Nega-Deity: A
Completely negates the skills of any being classed as gods, turning them as powerless as normal human beings in his presence, beings with the blood of gods that are not full deities must pass a willpower check to resist this skill. Any Noble Phantasms or weapons forged by gods have no effect on Yamata-no-Orochi.

As >>4697634
says don't feed him free powerups by luring him to the temple.

Don't get in melee distance, stick with ranged fighters. We need to link up with Ilya and get a full stat sheet on Avenger to work out if its the human aspect Alcidies or not, if so he'll be a great asset due to anti divine and personal experience with a hydra. The hydra poison arrows are absolute and might be able to be truthed into having an additional sleeping effect on the poison to knock Orochi unconscious, which would turn off his Eater of Gods skill so he can be wailed on by Karna and Gil going all out at a distance, they're both divine but have huge fire power and can out range the snek aids.

>Eater of Gods: A+
An Anti-God skill that represents the tale of Yamata-no-Orochi's consumption of seven of the daughters of the kunitsukami. Due to this skill, Yamata-no-Orochi is practically invincible against any being with divinity for as long as he is conscious, though this skill will not function should he not be conscious. In addition, by consuming Gods, beings descended from Gods, or even beings that could be called Gods, Yamata-no-Orochi can take their powers for their own, increasing his parameters and adding whatever Personal Skills or Class Skills they own to his own.

Humans like Morud and Arthur will be useful, if Waver happened to bring Gray and Rhongobongo all the better, but they're gonna have to avoid melee distance and just beamspam because of:

>Authority of the Beast: B
An Anti-Humanity skill that provides Yamata-no-Orochi with additional damage against all humans, all attacks made against humans will be two ranks higher than their original rank and be both cursed and poisoned.

cont. in next post..

>>4697644


Because of the following skill, he needs to be utterly incinerated. So a combo of Ea and Karna tossing the sun at him might be enough to burn ufp every trace, but of course he has to be knocked unconscious temporarily first.

>Battle Continuation: A+++
A skill inherited from his host, and strengthened thanks to his own existence as a god. Yamata-no-Orochi is effectively unkillable, capable of regenerating even from a single drop of blood with no issue due to the nature of the body functioning as his own. Normally, Zolgen Makiri's body would require the crest worm containing his soul to survive in order to ensure his regeneration, but this limitation has been lost due to the nature of Yamata-no-Orochi, every single aspect of his body contains enough of his soul for him to regenerate from. It is possible to even regenerate from ash so long as it was part of his body.
Even if he were to be completely deprived of a body, through possessing a new host before the dissipation of his soul, he is capable of continuing to exist.

We need to find out what Avenger has skill wise though, because if he is human and has Reincarnation Pandora he can either steal away some of Orochi's stuff or take powerful attacks from a divine servant and use them as a human.

Satsuki can be used as a heal/buffslut due to her RM too, if anyone needs some extra juice. EMIYA is pure man and has a huge ranged toolkit, might be worth giving him some new toys to play with.

We should try to avoid kojiro dying here since his soul is guaranteed to go to illya or sakura. Also anyone else

Changing to this only:

I'm not bringing him to the Grail to feed him more power ups, and I am not even going to attempt to use magic.

>>4697656
Wouldn't he have Rule Broke himself and contracted with Ayaka since he is in love with her and wants to stick around?

Do you like the Superboss, everyone?

>>4697660
yeah
nothing we can't beat, but it's a good new level to the challenge

>>4697660
With how much we over prepared for Manaka, fighting Orochi seems more fitting since we have New Game+ tier stats and party members. Too bad New Game+ locked out the AltRogue and Primate Murder bosses.

Maybe it's time to wake up whatever is in Betty

Now I gotta admit, the Mahou Shonen voter were ahead of their time.

Ok fuck it, let's take a chance on them weakening eachother.

This is why we shouldn't have put off Zouken. Waiting for Sakura probably would have made this worst.

Gil figured out pretty quick we were trying to contact him earlier, also seeing as we're using the 2nd magic to teleport we can put the bracelet on after teleporting everyone and try another teleport that it will block, teleporting Gil to us if he hasn't noticed our earlier attempts

oops
>>4697855

>>4697761

"Everyone! Grab on to me!" You've had an idea, and with any luck, it will mean that you won't need Medea to be capable of using her own magic in order to perform a speedy extraction. Everyone quickly complies, and to your surprise, so does the teddy bear familiar from the castle. You hadn't even noticed when it arrived, but it seems to be carrying Tamamo's Master with it. Good call, Kiritsugu, looks like Sasaki wasn't the only guy observing the fight from afar. "Ready, Amethyst? Try not to dump us into the sky or something... please."

"I... definitely will not do that, Master!" The Kaleidostar begins to perform the calculations required to perform a large scale warp with this many people. "Where do you want me to drop you, anyway? Your place?" The Kaleidostar tries to preempt you by suggesting your own home, but you shake your head.

"Rin's house. There's less danger to the public if Orochi makes a beeline for us." You hate the idea of having to run away, but Orochi as he is now has managed to steal half of Arcueid's power, leaving her with only half as powerful as she was powerful, and making Orochi far far more powerful than he has any right to be. It'll be a complete disaster if he manages to get any more strength through devouring some other Servants, so you need to deal with him immediately... Well, you say a complete disaster, but you've pretty certainly already passed that point. At this point, if Orochi gets any more power, the word disaster won't be applicable, and instead 'apocalypse' will be far more apt as a descriptor for the god. How did things come to this?

"Understood! Give me a few seconds to get the calibrations ready!" You look at the body of Zolgen rapidly beggining to reform, and you can hear the strain in Amethyst's voice. It's very clear that she too knows the direness of the current situation, so is almost certainly working as quickly as she is able without making any mistakes again. Thankfully, just as Orochi's body fully reforms... "It's ready, Master!"

"Good! Then get us the hell out of here!" You yell at the star, and she obliges the request, the world around you disappears in... well a kaleidoscope of color. For a second, you are surrounded by an endless amount of reflected prismatic light, before the warp finishes and you find yourself standing in Rin's bedroom. This would be very awkward if Rin was in the house, and if you weren't accompanied by the rest of your faction. You breath a sigh of relief as you realize that at least for now, the danger has passed. You don't know how long it will take Orochi to track you down again, but without leaving a physical trail for him to follow, it should take longer... Hopefully. "Everyone, please... take a moment to relax. We've suffered a defeat, but everyone is still alive so things aren't as... guh!" You are suddenly prevented from explaining things any further as you are tackled to the floor by a certain fox woman.

"Oh, husband! You... You saved me from Orochi! I'll never ever stop loving you for this!" The woman is rubbing her face against yours like she is some sort of cat, despite being a fox, and it's only when she is picked up by the back of her dress and tossed aside by Mordred that she stops.

"Oi. We're kind of in the middle of a crisis here, you idiot fox." Mordred's voice has a cold edge to it as she addresses Tamamo, who for all the divine power she was flaunting in your first meeting, is now just as meek as you'd expect from her when she only has one of her tails. It really does appear that the battle against Orochi has scared her back to her senses, at least for now. Nobody seems to care about how Tamamo decided to address you either, everyone is a little too busy with thoughts of Orochi to really begin fighting among each other.

"Mordred is right, Tamamo." You agree with the girl, happy to have had the fox woman extracted from you. "First off though, can the two of you use your abilities again, now that we are a fair distance away from Yamata-no-Orochi?"

"I can." Medea confirms, and a nod from Tamamo gives you an affirmative answer from both of the girls. Thank goodness then, Nega-Deity isn't a permanent skill, and must work on proximity to Orochi. Good to know for your future battle with the Snake Bastard, but it's truly unfortunate that you won't really be able to rely on either Tamamo or Medea for the fight at all.

"Excellent, then hold on for a moment." You proceed to take the bracelet Gilgamesh gave you out of your pocket before you take it on and off over and over again, letting the King of Heroes know of the emergency. You hate to ruin his date, but you're really going to need him to help out here. Nega-Deity shouldn't provide Orochi with immunity to Ea, and Ea is one of the few weapons that may just be capable of fully destroying Orochi as he now exists, soul and all. If this doesn't work to get his attention, you guess you'll just need to text SHIKI to interrupt the date. "Now with that done, Medea, I need to scry for somebody again, I need to determine whether or not it's a good time to retrieve the rest of our allies." Medea quickly produces the ball, and upon placing a palm on it, you can see Ciel once again, though now she's walking across the deck of a cargo ship, slowly inspecting each and every cargo container meticulously, as if looking for something. This is almost certainly the prelude to her meeting with Enhance, and you aren't really sure if you should involve yourself in it.

>Have Medea teleport you to Ciel anyway.

Because just one world ending threat wasn't enough, amirite?

>>4697908
>Scry on Rin and Ilya
We need EMIYA and Avenger asap for ranged support and to draw Orochi away from the town and all the helpless NPCs

>Call Shirou, tell him he's to navigate as Saber pilots all the non-teleportable allies in the chopper to a place of our choosing, at this state either the docks to collect the lance or Rin's house, but we'll update if the Orochi. compromises either location. Try teleporting everyone else who can be teleported to our location though. Alternatively, Can Sakura just fly on dragonloli while the rest are teleported here?

Scrying on snek might alert him to where we are, rather not until we've got some kind of footing back. Give Ciel a few more minutes to find the dead jew stick while we co-ordinate the others.

In the near future we should consider having Shinji and all of the skilled mages present investigate the original summoning circle Zouken used while snek is distracted by a few archers and see if they can reverse it, possibly hijack it to summon Susanoo into SHinji's body or if Morgan can destabilise the Orochi's host body with Erosion as we never asked her opinion on this. Can easily just have EMIYA launch BP Rule Breakers and Erosions to try and mess with the stability of the host's body from afar.

We could also try and contact Alan and have him remove the giant worm as its getting in the way of us preventing the elder god apotheosis for him.

Odd that this hasn't come up until now.

>>4698071
Nothing stopping you from scrying on him though.
Or at least trying.

>>4698067
Oh bae, I can't wait to see the cast react to THAT.

>>4698073
I'd have thought scrying on an Eldritch horror wouldn't be the smartest thing but then we brainmelded with a few of Betty's familiars earlier with nothing but a mild headache to show for it

>>4698078
You'd only be scrying on his human form.
It's not like his very presence melts peoples brains right now unless he wants it to.

>>4698081
Already cast my vote for now, but I'll mention it in future, especially if Gil is too distracted with his date to care about our scuffed method of contacting him. Last time it did take Medea actively trying to scry him to bother seeing what we wanted and he wasn't busy simping

I wonder if BB has access to C.C.C outside the mooncell and can baleet things Alan doesn't want around. I also imagine Shinji might be able to resist it with Truth memes as origin forms were enough in CCC.

Lets just leave out 8 bowls of sake for Orochi and see if that does anything

>>4698088
We have the wrong greek witch for cursed edibles

>>4698088
Although, Gil may have something in his vault, provided he wants to actually listen to us and share such a treasure

Regardless of whether or not we can contact Alan, do you think he'll care that Orochi's going to eat the world?
He might see it as a viable way to stop Manaka, and I doubt an avatar of Nyarlathotep cares much about the fate of Earth.

>>4698114
He's a lot like BB in that if there's no humans left to bully he'll have to find some new entertainment. He could have deleted the planet if he wanted to stop Manaka but he likes his toys

What if we try to free Shuten and have her convince Orochi not to end the world?

Looks like asking Betty to summon something to help might be pretty great idea afterall.
There ought to be something which is anathema to the being that Orochi is right now.
>>4697966
It was really nice.

>>4698228
Any kind of attack that is anti-divine, anti-dragon, some kind of blood destroying attack, or able to -kill something permanently by attacking a specific weakpoint- might do the trick. Boy, if only we had something like that.

>>4698233
Shiki could probably kill it properly, but he has to avoid the snek aids unless he suddenly picks up archery alongside his buffed MOEDP.

>>4698228
We could feed it a bioweapon style of familiar that causes total cell death made through Betty's powers?

any ideas to defeat Orochi in none lethal ways? He was defeated in legend through getting him drunk

>>4698244
He was only calmed through booze, still took Susanoo wailing on him with his sword to kill him while he was passed out. The Totsuka-no-Tsurugi which Susanoo used is housed right here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isonokami_Shrine which could be yoinked and used in conjunction with some Truthed wine or with some liqour donated by Gil.

>>4698244
We could, possibly, craft a Truth liquor that's specifically embued with the power to get ANYTHING absolutely sloshed out of their brains. Japanese divine spirits and onis just seem to completely fall for the ol' drunken ambush tactics all the time. Must be a god/demon thing.

>>4698233
Shiki is great, sure. But the problem of facing him in melee still remains.
And now he is even more dangerous.
>>4698242
Orochi received ritual sacrifices, right? It we were to throw him something like that alongside Truth liquor he might be willing to consume it in his arrogance.

>>4698270

Yeah, it looks like WhatIs based his Eater of Gods skill on the daughters offered up to him as ritual sacrifices. In legend he ate seven before Susanoo stepped in and saved the eighth by killing it.

We could use a Shinji puppet loaded with Truthed superaids or superbooze? I do think the possibility of augmenting the Hydra poison on Avenger's arrows with a sleeping or intoxication effect may be effective as its essentially the same thing, just a bit more forceful than baiting him into consuming the poison. Only risk there is does the Hydra count as a snake, and therefore is subservient to Orochi including the poison effect. So maybe neutral booze is best?

Then, once its passed out bap Orochi with Erosion and Rule Breaker.

If separating him from his host does nothing then he can be nuked by some combination of

>Herc (Bravery pushes him through the required willpower check if he is the divine variant) if he has Nine Lives

>EMIYA and Shirou with anti dragon BPs such as Ascalon or even traced/the actual Totsuka-no-Tsurugi or a heal blocker like Harpe given to someone like SHIKI who won't die when killed. SHIKI isn't divine, but I'm unsure if the Orochi could eat him and get anything out of it.

>Artoria and Morud swordbeam

>potentially the jew poking stick from Ciel

>loli deletion breath attack

>Gil and Karna nukes who would pass the required willpower checks as they're fearless chads who don't afraid of anything.

There's a lot of options.

>>4698288
and of course Shiki could just kill it dead if we do manage to knock it unconscious. He can be buffed by several casters and maybe even have Morgan use hero maker to give him a protective skill like disengage or even we could offer him our own blessing of dragons consensually?

>>4698288
I would have preferred a booze/fake sacrifice trap if it was just Orochi, but I doubt that we could pull it off without the Zolgenbrain realizing somethings up.
That said, alleged intelligence never seemed to stop that kind of thing from working in Japanese mythology, so he might still be conceptually predisposed to falling for it.
There's also the fact that Ochi is a beast, and might go for it even if he thought it was fishy.
A lot of the difficulty here comes from him having the overwhelming power of a monster paired with the intelligence and finesse of a legendary magus.

>>4698309
Erosion/Rule Breaker might take out the zolgenbrain so Orochi itself would fall for the honeypot?

How about this plan:
Make him drunk by abusing his legend.
Trick him into eating space aids summon. It should fuck him on conceptual level since he has Arcs power now.
Use that opening to make Sasaki cut him down again.
Make Shiki kill every single part of Orochi before he can reform and be a threat again.

If it fails use brute force, Sakura or try to summon Scathatch from her jail because she is geared againts such targets as Orochi.
If that fails Slash Emperor EMIYA.

We also have option to fully fix Kiritsugu to abise his time magic.

>>4698336
To add to this, if he eats one of Betty's familiars and integrates it into his saint graph not only would it fuck with his stolen arc powers, but it might provide a link to him through our CS as he is still a servant, further buffed by truth.

When Avenger herc in f/sf used Reincarnation Pandora to yoink From Hell and with it, a good chunk of Jack's saint graph and add it to his own, Flat was able to dab on herc a bit using his link with Jack to run a damaging CS through herc who had taken on part of Jack's saint graph.

>>4698336
Oh and if all else fails and Sasaki dies somehow, Gil doesn't want to be our jannie and Orochi manages to eat Manaka we have the final failsafe of having Ayaka summon APEX to just delete both major bosses simultaneously with a max powered 13 seals released Excalibur.

>>4698372
https://typemoon.fandom.com/wiki/Restraints_of_the_Round_Table

As long as he doesn't eat more than 51% of Arc or Lugh etc. he can't qualify as an elemental, so it would proc all 13 seals. gg ez

>>4698372
>"Betty, by the power of my command spell I order you to use your NP!"

>>4698250
Speaking of this specific sword. If we can get it by stealing or making Shirou recreate it and give it to Sasaki it will be a massive boon. Using snake slayer versus snake.

>>4698461
No one has been allowed to look at it besides the monks that guard it, so it'll have to be stolen and repaired or have Shirou/EMIYA come with and view it to project it. It broke when Susanoo tried to cleave the body section/tail of the 4th head of Orochi and accidentally smashed it against the Kusanagi that was hidden inside the snek piñata.

>>4698470
Speaking of the Kusanagi, in Fate/ lore there's apparently one for each of it's names, so I wonder how WhatIs will treat whatever is inside Orochi, and if he'll be enough of a madman to have Orochi regurgitate it and use it himself in human form for peak kino.

https://fategrandorder.fandom.com/wiki/Divine_Sword

Speaking of Sasaki being somewhat friendly with yet unknown Master. Could he be Servant of Kuzuki? Afterall Kuzuki is second person that Shinji can call his teacher.
>>4698472
>he'll be enough of a madman to have Orochi regurgitate it and use it himself in human form for peak kino.
Imagine he sees Shirou or EMIYA going UBW and goes "hey I can do it too now".

>>4697908
For our immediate moves I propose:
>Send Ciel an SMS. We're at Rin's house, she should call us as soon as she's free. Emergency, Beast.
>Call Sakura. Explain the gist of the situation. Tell Saber to step on it, she did nifty things with that motorcycle that one time. We'll deal with the fines later, we have lawyers for that (we do have lawyers, right?)
I don't think we should teleport people from the chopper, we sent them with Sakura for her protection and that hasn't changed. Except for Touko, as I'll explain later. And I'd prefer to keep Alitheia away from Orochi, she's weaker, clumsier and less experienced in battle than him. I don't want to see our daughter vored.
>Have Betty use her flying bugs to locate and track Orochi.
I'm pretty sure Zouken could tell we scried on him. Orochi will as well.
>Call SHIKI. Have him crash the date and explain that we need the King of Heroes to help us against the Beast.
Gilgamesh will jump at the chance to show off in front of his girl.
>Scry on Rin and Illya, see if they are done yet.
If they're not done we should call them. Rin won't answer for sure. Did we ever get around to giving Illya a phone? Or do we have Shiki's number?
>Have our Casters, along with Touko, study Zouken's Summoning Circle and try to determine weaknesses. Physically if Betty's bugs have located Orochi and we think it's safe, by scrying if we're not sure where he is. We don't want him to get the jump on them.

I considered calling and teleporting Miyako as well, but I don't know if Sun Wukong will be able to contribute meaningfully. Does anyone else know his abilities and thinks we could use him?

Also, we should start correcting Tamamo every time she calls us husband. We need to turn this into a reflex and a running gag by the time Sakura gets here, or there will be blood.

>>4698475
I think most everyone from Japanese history and myth will take the side of random humans when given the choice between the Orochi of all things. But I don't think it'd be Kuzuki as he isn't a mage, he originally saved Medea by chance and took her to the temple where she was able to tap into the powerful ambient mana and the leylines. Although we never did really check up on him after Medea teleported the temple inhabitants out to safety before Manaka nigged over half the faction at the time.

>>4698476
Hadn't thought of the eldritch bugs to keep tabs on snek, good input senpai. Do we have Ciel's number/does she actually have a phone? She seemed to like communicating with obscure notes attached to black keys placed around town.

>>4698478
Good question. I'd assumed she did, and we had, but now I'm not sure at all. Guess we'll have to wait for WhatIs to wake up and confirm.

Also, I remembered one more thing:
>Call Waver. He's about to walk in an absolute shitshow, he, and Gray, should be prepared.

>>4698478
Might be worth checking on him if we has time latter.
I am hoping for him to show up since WhatIs might give us a scene where Kuzuki fights Saber Alter.

>>4698336
If we're going eldritch aids, have Betty summon the Color Out of Space and mix it in with the superbooze

That'll get you nice and fucked up rq

>>4698485
If we mix something like that we should save a bottle as a welcome back gift to Shuten and tell her we killed her dad with it for yet another yandere

>>4698487
I wish Shuten was with us right now.

>>4698488
Betrayal risk too high while her former master and now incarnated Orochi is in play. She might think Zouken wasn't a pathetic simp after seeing him go this far.

>>4698489
Zouken essentialy killed himself to summon Orochi to deal with his problems, she's still see him as pathetic. And does she even like her father?

>>4698493
Oddly she doesn't really talk much about her past, its Ibaraki who extolls Shuten's origins. Shuten herself is too busy cooming and boozing. But she does wake up the curse in Chiyome in Shimousa and talks up being the child of the orochi while doing so.

>>4698494
From what you're saying, I think she'd jump at the chance to fight him and prove once and for all that she's not weak compared to him. If nothing else, him eating the world will mean no more cooming and boozing for her.

Shame we'll never know for sure.

>>4698494
Did Shinji get Isekaied before Ibuki-Douji got revealed?

>>4698502
Yep, I actually asked this specifically a few threads ago. The cutoff is July? 2020. WhatIs will specify but it's from when the quest started that new meta knowledge ends. Kinda why I'm only quoting actual history, but it seems a lot of Orochi's stats have been based on Ibuki but ranked up a bit.

So we used Roa's connection to the Root to erase him from reality and we also used Shiki's to touch Root again. And Orochi now also plays role of tapeworm after he started leeching from Arc? Could it be possible to reach through Arc to stolen parts of her power in a much more mortal and not perpetual Orochi and just take it back?

>>4698503
Interesting, so up to Olympus. At least he got to see Top Lad Wodime

>>4698506
Shinji canonically knows Kintoki's mecha is dormant somewhere in the ocean right this moment

>>4698506
I'm almost disappointed we can't clown all over the singularities and lostbelts.
If we ever get the chance I'm wondering which of our allies would be the most fun for each one.
King Mo for Camelot and Sakura for Babylon would be fun.
Shirou and Saber together for Camelot would also be fun.

Honestly we should be happy that its only the Orochi we're dealing with here and not a Douman with prep time. Shinji doesn't know shit about him as Shimousa is all he was working with

>>4698510
Shinji canonically seen Tsukihime anime. And was waiting for Tsukihime remake.
Which was not properly announced at that time I think.

>>4698513
I think Zorochi is a way worse threat than Doughman.
We keep getting japed.

>>4698517
Douman can't be properly killed without Pepe cutting him off from the cycle of reincarnation by force enlightening him. He's like Roa on steroids who actively summons, buffs and also captures servants and gods alike to use as his toys. Has shikigami spies everywhere, actively uses powerful remote curses etc. he'd be like fighting a proper player rather than a boss mob with high specs and skills.

>>4698519
Just hit him with Longinus or the Seventh Holy Scripture.
Fucking easy.
He'd go down like a bitch if he were here.

>>4698520
Shinji doesn't have the meta knowledge to know that he's reincarnating though. He'd recognise Nanako as a threat and throw a few gods at it. But ye, he does have a hard check available. He'd be able to predate upon and assimilate allies just like Orochi but with a lot more tact and autonomous movement rather than a really big and obvious giant beast

>>4698523
You're forgetting Orochi has all of Zolgen's magecraft knowledge and is apparently just as tactically minded.
Zouken as an old man japed basically the entire war and only got btfo when Sakura became too independent.
Also against an opponent that doesn't die we can just have Alan or BBhotep deal with them.
Pretty sure CCC overwrites immortality.
Also didn't Douman fail to become a Beast?
Zolgen/Orochi is well on his way to becoming a true Beast, it looks like.
Basically, I can't see Douman as as much of a threat to the now genius snake god casually making A+++ rank Anti-Mountain attacks.

>>4698512
Fuyuki: King Mo
Orleans: Alitheia or Medea
Rome: our nigga Heracles
Okeanos: Medea or Rider or Alcides again.
London: King Mo again. Maybe Arc, Alitheia or Sakura to kill Solomon early.
America: Cu if we ever get him back. Alternatively Ayaka so she can out-beauty Medb.
Camelot: Mordred, Morgan or the newlyweds.
Babylon: Sakura or Gilgamesh.

The best allies.

>>4698525
Neither Douman or snek can become a true Beast as they don't love humanity. Its explicitly why Douman failed to ascend in LB 5.5. I think I perceive snek as the lesser threat as he's a bigger target that's more likely to rely on brute force than a sneaky fucker who can and will curse and eat allies from the shadows and snowball too far before you know who is causing problems.

Orochi has come out of the gate swinging hard and fast so its much easier to not just recognise the threat asap but also focus efforts on him and even get aid from others like Gil etc. before he snowballs

>>4698529
Douman or Orochi have no love for humanity.
But Zolgen does.
Douman can't be the threat he might normally be as there's too many people about who would be able to fuck him.
Alan, BBhotep, the Casters, Gil, Manaka, Memelin.
You just can't work from the shadows in this sort of scenario unless all you do is hide like Zouken

Man, King Mo vs the Lion King would be kino.

>King Mo vs the Lion King
My first thought was about picrel.

>>4698552
The mightiest Saber of all.
I just really want to see King Mordred cut a path through the Knights of the Round.

>>4698562
Imagine King Mordred meeting normal Mordred.

>>4698580
They'd probably get into a fight that normal Mordred would have no possible way of winning.

>>4698581
Wouldn't young Mordred be inspired after seeing that she succeeds in the future and is worthy to be the King?

>>4698585
Camelot Mordred isn't young Mordred.
She's a summoned Mordred guiltripped into serving the Lion Cunt.

>>4698590
Oh. Then yeah, it wouldn't end well.

>>4698591
Alternatively if we just took Arturia instead all of the knights would defect.

>>4698593
So we should take both, for maximum efficiency.

>>4698593
>>4698596
Just flirt with Lion King.

>>4698599
I don't know if that would work.
I think we'd need Shirou to seduce her instead.
It's not cheating if it's a parallel version of somebody.

>>4698602
Not sure he is into that since he has best possible Saber at home.

Do you think Saber would accept Saber Alter as Shirou's second wife?

>>4698607
Every version of Saber deserves their perfect husbando.

>>4698607
We'll just tell him to lie back and think of England.

>>4698612
He'd have to be gay not to want big booba seiba.
Even if Rhongo has dangerous autism.

>>4698611
Brave words, anon. How many local Saber are you willing to take in?

>>4698609
She won't, because Morgan is going to be his second wife.

>>4698618
Well food costs wont be an issues after we teach him this one simple trick to end the world economy!
Bankers hate him!

>>4698621
>Morgan
Why do you hate Saber?

>>4698625
We should set EMIYA up with Morgan and Rin.

>>4698627
Nah, EMIYA is gonna get Rin and Ciel

>>4698627
EMIYA just called looks like he will have sleep this week at work too.

>>4698627

That reminds me, we're planing on keeping the servants around, so are Saber and the others going to age?
Will she grow into her Lancer body with enough time?

>>4698712
depends, if they have a physical body, they can stick around

>>4698710
>"Nyarly, buddy, you should go and masturbate already. Cmon it is just selfcest, nothing big."
>>4698712
I think it depends on how we are going to go about it.
But I am not so sure that Saber and Mordred will age no matter what we do.

>>4698712
Technically, neither Saber or Shirou will be able to age seeing as Shirou's Traced Avalon is activated thanks to Saber.

>>4698721
Same goes for Mordred and her paradoxes, right?

>>4698726
Yeah.

>>4698721
That's concerning. So what, they're immortal? Can it be turned off?

>>4698728
Well, sure, but good luck getting Saber to throw Avalon away again.
It's not like the two of them wouldn't have eternal life with each other in the actual realm of Avalon anyway though, and if they get bored of living they can always both just go there.

>>4698721
Good. Now we need to find a way to make everyone else immortal and unaging as well. (Except for our daughters, they should grow up first).

>>4698735
If divine entities exist in the Fate universe, then at least one sort of afterlife should exist for humans, which also means that reincarnation exists, which means immortality really isn't a horrible thing after all!

>>4698740
What about the immortal beings in canon that explicitly want to die?

Be the change you want to see happen, anon.

"No, we'll leave Ciel for now, instead, I think we ought to focus on Rin and Illya. She ought to be finished with Kirei now." With that in mind, you instead focus on Rin with the scrying orb, and you find yourself thinking that this thing truly is a wondrous invention. It's just about the perfect reminder that Medea is capable of far more than just shooting lasers and teleporting people. She is after all at a level of magecraft that only perhaps ten people in all of history could hope to be at, and two of those are Grand Casters!

You soon find yourself looking at the scene. Kirei Kotomine lays dead before Rin. The huge blade of the Kaleidosword has been planted into the center of his chest, and given him a wound that he could not possibly hope to survive. "Feeling better after that, Rin?" Archer has his arms crossed as he looks at Rin and the body of the dead priest with a neutral expression.

"A little bit, yeah." Rin looks at Kirei's corpse before giving it a kick to make sure that the bastard is really dead, the girl is no longer dressed as a magical girl, so you assume that she must've just decided she didn't need to be Kaleido-Ruby any longer. "I wasn't aware you could create a sword with the ability to make people tell the truth, Archer!" She doesn't seem to have any sort of remorse or regret about what she did, and you can only imagine that Kirei must've been forced to tell the complete truth to Rin. So why should she mourn such a garbage example of a human being?

"It's just another usage of Fragarach. The McRemitz only have access to the offensive 'Answerer' aspect of the blade through their bloodline, but the original sword is capable of more than just that. With the blade at your throat, lying becomes a complete impossibility, and you are forced to not only answer, but answer any question asked of you truthfully." Archer gives Rin a brief lesson on some of the capabilities of just one of his swords. When it comes to utility, Archer and Gilgamesh may be some of the only Servants that are greater than Medea is. Their effectively unlimited repertoire of Noble Phantasms giving them so much utility that there's probably not much that the two of them can't do with their weapons outside of fights. "Now, I believe that we're about ready to go back to everyone else. I'm sorry that the rest of you had to see this." Archer apologizes to the rest of your allies with Rin, clearly not comfortable with everyone else watching this happen.

"Oh, don't worry about it, she was completely justified in killing him." Aoko reassures Archer that she's completely fine with the rather brutal looking execution of the priest, Archer must've managed to make Kirei own up to everything, including the basement full of kids that Archer knew of from his past experiences in life, not to mention the whole father murdering thing. It's very clear that the only thing that the rest of your allies feel towards the dead priest laying on the floor is a sense of justice being dealt. When even Aoko Aozaki herself has decided that you don't deserve to live, you've probably managed to screw up big time. Shiki doesn't seem to care much either, and Illya especially doesn't care about Kirei. Avenger just has his arms crossed and his eyes closed, apparently bored by the entire situation.

It certainly appears that with their business with Kirei concluded, they are all prepared to head back, so you decide to have Caster teleport you over to them. "Caster, send me to Rin and the rest of them, I need to tell them what's happening and have them teleport back with me, but first..." You allow the power of Magical Amethyst to retreat back into Amethyst, and feel the unlimited supply of energy disappear. You didn't really want to have to give up on the power just yet, but you didn't feel like remaining in the form of a magical boy for longer than was necessary was a good idea. After all, channeling as much power as you were using does seem to have had something of a detrimental effect on Amethyst, who seems to be struggling to keep afloat. It wouldn't serve you very well at all if you managed to break the Mystic Code, especially not when you're going to need this form again for the next time you fight Orochi. Now that Amethyst has managed to figure out how to transform you into this form without turning you into a girl, there's not going to be any trouble in the future, you think. After all, if all she has to do is run the same program that she used last time, then it would be impossible to accidentally end up turning you into a girl again... right? Also, you have no idea whether the Kaleidostar would mess with Medea's teleportation magic as a passive defense either, and you don't want to risk it.

Still, the one big benefit of returning to your normal self after spending time as Magical Amethyst is that your clothing is still in pristine condition! Caster looks at you for a few moments now that you've ceased using the Mystic Code before she thrusts her staff outwards and speaks that word of power that is becoming... very very familiar to your ears now. "Tροψα!"

You appear in front of Rin, Archer and the rest of your allies. "Everyone, grab on to me. We've run into... well, a pretty huge emergency." You don't elaborate on the details any further than that, and instead just have everyone make sure they are either touching you or touching somebody touching you before you give the OK to Medea through your telepathic link. It feels kind of disrespectful to just leave Kirei's corpse laying in the middle of the room with a gaping sword wound in his chest... Nah, screw him, he totally deserved it. Asshole. Ciel can deal with it later on, she'll understand... or she'll probably just get Karna to incinerate the body or something. Either way, you couldn't care less about Kirei Kotomine now that he's dead.

You soon find yourself back in Rin's bedroom with the rest of your passengers, and Rin kind of looks a little outraged that you'd just decide to bring everyone to her room, but clearly notices the grave expressions on everyone else in the room already and holds her tongue instead. "So... what's going on? What's the big emergency? You can't have run into that much trouble killing Zouken, could you?" Rin sounds incredulous to the idea that there's some huge emergency at all, so as you pull out your phone to call Shirou, you give her a brief rundown.

"Zouken summoned the Divine Spirit of Orochi into himself before we could stop him, he proceeded to pursue us to the Einzbern Castle where we requested the assistance of Tamamo here to stop him, and we planned to trapped him in a binding spell formed by the three strongest spells of each of the three Casters, yet this... failed, and Orochi broke out, then... Well, things went from bad to worse, as he managed to consume a piece of Arcueid and siphon off half of her powers... becoming." You sigh, you know that Archer isn't going to be pleased by the news you're about to deliver. "Becoming a beast." You leave that on that note as you begin to dial Shirou, who thankfully doesn't leave you waiting very long before he picks up. You can hear the noise of the helicopter as he answers.

"Shinji? What's up? Were you the one who was responsible for Arcueid disappearing earlier?" Shirou's voice is just a little bit concerned still about suddenly seeing one of the people in the helicopter disappear without a trace, but it's not like Caster's magic doesn't have a tell to it. Namely the overabundance of purple light.

"I was, Shirou, and now I need..."

>"...to tell you to have everyone except yourself, Sakura and Saber to hold hands, I'm going to teleport them all, it's an emergency." While you would prefer to have everyone come, this is the simplest solution that is most likely to actually work.
>"...you to set the helicopter down. I'm going to teleport everyone except Alítheia and Sakura to me, but first make sure that Alítheia is OK with flying Sakura back to Fuyuki." It might be a little risky when it comes to exposing magic to the world by having a damn dragon fly through the skies, but you can't worry about that now!
>"...Saber to push that damn helicopter to beyond its limits. I need you here ASAP!" With Saber's Riding skill, she should be able to maybe double the speed of the helicopter, and she might just get back to Fuyuki in time!
>"...you to set the Helicopter down, I'm going to try to use Magical Amethyst's control over the Second True Magic to teleport you all here, Helicopter and all." You don't need to be Kaleido-Amethyst to have Amethyst use her Warp function, and with two specific sets of coordinates, she shouldn't have any problems with bringing them all here. With any luck, Sakura's magic immunity doesn't extend to True Magic.
>Write-in...

>>"...Saber to push that damn helicopter to beyond its limits. I need you here ASAP!" With Saber's Riding skill, she should be able to maybe double the speed of the helicopter, and she might just get back to Fuyuki in time!
Safest option. I don't like leaving Sakura with so little protection, exposing magic or trusting Amethyst again. We won bigly last time we gambled with her yes, but that's how get blown out at a casino.
