Chapter 140
Chapter 140
With the death of Hercules and frankly the second biggest threat within this singularity we quickly made our way into the wrecked remains of the Einsbern castle that had clearly been torn to pieces in the battle between corrupted Artoria and Hercules.
"So how do you plan on finding the library or whatever note you want?" Cu asked with a bit of an attitude as everyone frowned at the clearly destroyed castle.
I walked forward and kneeled down and put my hand on the marble flagstone. "Fuse" I said and the ground beneath us shuddered and seemed to turn to sand as it moved into the glowing brick, I was fusing all the surrounding stonework into.
"I will collect the entire structure by combining all the walls, floors and other parts by combining them, then we can simply find the library which will certainly have shelving units made out of wood." Thats one advantage of old-time luxury buildings, they didnt bother with a woodwork so the areas made with a lot of wood and other materials were probably leisure areas.
A few minutes later as I was fusing the entire Einsbern Castle into a super brick, Fujimaru called out to me. "Jake, we found the library in a basement!" She said excitedly and I saw Tamamo's gloves were covered in dust and wood shavings.
I bet she had Tamamo literally mine out the blockage with all the wood chippings and stone dust that was covering her.
"Good work Fujimaru, if you need a favor or would prefer a very useful gift, just tell me." I said happily as I began throwing all the books into my space ring in a nice stack as well as a brief note to Hestia asking if she could help me find the info on making Homunculi and other magic spells, and she could also delegate some of it to our other Familia members as well.
"Master, just take the gift as asking a favor is akin to relying on a future relationship being good and he could just up and die when that Caster fails him." Tamamo counseled and I had to grab Nero around her waist as she stomped towards Tamamo with her red sword already drawn.
"She isn't worth it!" I hissed into her ear as she literally dragged me towards the duo even as my feet carved deep lines into the ground.
Nero had to take a couple deep breaths and I gave her a pat on the back for not... Lighting the fox girl on fire basically.
"Jake can I just have the gift... I mean I am happy to have helped but if you wanna give me something, I would appreciate it." She said abashedly and ran a hand through her orange hair as she grinned....
'I may get seduced by that earnest expression...' I thought shaking my head of the image of me and Fujimaru just getting to know one another more. She honestly had that best friend vibe that you could forget she was a chick and just play Mario Cart with.
'Hmm, what could help her really though.' I thought before I had a metaphorical lightbulb light up.
"You are a... Mediocre magus so I will give you something you can use to help any magic you cast." With that said a locked box fell onto the ground and I also took out a couple chairs and a nice table I looted from this very castle that didnt get destroyed.
Opening the trunk there was a large stack of ornately carved sticks within. "These are wands I... Uh came across, should one of them fit you I will help you further attune to it, and you can use the wands to channel mage craft and amplify it."
Considering how this worlds magic system ran off 'Mystery' and other nonsense, these wands with a core made out of a mythical beast from legends, will greatly boost a magus's power.
"Wands have long fallen out of favor when Primordial Runes were lost." Olga scoffed as she took a glance and looked at the trunk full of wands.
I didnt really mind giving Fujimaru a wand as Harry Potter magic was simply incompatible to me at all levels and honestly the only offensive spell, Fiendfrye that called to me was weaker than my own flames.
"Hey Olga... I am not a poor Magus who slaughters cities for scraps of knowledge and has completely lost all connection to the magic of old." I said blandly making her face scrunch up and as she went to retort I lifted a trio of wands up. "Olga, these wands cores have regents made of high-class phantasmal creatures, for example this one was a Pheonix feather, this one a true dragons heart string, a hair from a unicorn's tail..." With each example I saw Olga's face turn red as Fujimaru's eyes sparkled at the wands.
C Chulainn hearing my words came over and with a couple glances and taking one of the wands for a brief inspection spoke. "I never met a dragon or phoenix in my life, but I did run into a Bicorn and this tail hair has a similar feel to it, albeit on the holy spectrum instead of evil... So yeah, these are real, girly you got lucky Haha!" C Chulainn laughed and it was obvious the man wanted to keep one of the wands to study as his staff was similar but obviously much more powerful, but he still put it back.
"Go ahead and take them out and pick the one that feels the... most right I guess." I wasn't Olivander so I had no idea which one would be the best for her, but I knew I could fuse a bit of her blood into it, to maximize their connection so I wasn't all too worried about a critical rejection.
Didn't take too long for her to find a Unicorn hair wand that fit her and made her orange hair glow silver lightly and a bright grin covered her face.
"Fou!" A small voice cried, and Mash yelped as the small squirrel/cat looking combo leaped from her shoulder and attempted to dive into the trunk carrying the wands.
I reflexively teleported the trunk into my ring and Fou smashed into the thick wooden table with a harsh. 'thunk' noise as his head crashed into the table and I saw a large crack was now running through it.
As Fou slowly looked up at me with condemnation in his eyes, Mash grabbed him and pulled the mascot into her bosom as she cried out. "Fou, where have you been! No how did you get here in this Singularity!"
Fou kept calling out its name as it attempted to escape Mashu's grasp, but Mash was holding the Beast tightly so it couldn't escape without hurting Mash.
