9London 2006 Rin pov
the mage tower is in chaos every level of magic was being used the energy rivaled the creation of the universe.
the fact that we're standing here means all that energy is being contained but I-no everyone knew it was temporary it wouldn't be long before a new reality engulfs us all even though this might be the end of times I had two main concerns
"what happening to that baka Shirou emiya and what about the rest of my friends in Japan" it didn't help that zeltrich that old bastard wasn't here he's probably investigating whatever the heck was happening in Japan this level of magic should've been lost in the age of gods.
the tone I associated with archer because of its natural yet unnatural instruments that were used played I opened the phone and answered (imagine a ringtone version of emiya).
"hey Rin are you alright" that idiot I should be the one asking that.
"I'm fine Shirou what's happening in Japan right now that amount of magic shouldn't be possible"
"Everyone had their soul sucked out via a swastika-shaped bounded field" they really were going the edgy route with the no doubt complicated bounded field it wasn't like they were advocating for peace or were nazis.
"the hell happening down there"I asked the annoyance in my voice palpable this is going to be another nightmare to hide.
"apparently a Nazi and a blue-haired fellow my age started a fight to become a god or something that's all I could gather from the other Shirou here before he passed away" the tone in his voice was sorrowful and there was actually nazis or just one this situation is tiresome and a bit sad.
"Shirou i-"I was cut off by a wave of energy it seemed like if it went on any longer reality would be torn apart!
"oh they just left the circle a hole opened for a second it looks like a black hole sorry Rin I gotta hang up it looks like the fight is nearing its end stage"
"emiya wait for "beep oh he's is so going to pay for that but there were now five things going through my mind
how the fuck did a Nazi survive to this day
the hell why did they have access to a level of magic most mages and even wizards couldn't hope to achieve and how was a boy fighting said Nazi that dude shouldn't have as much experience as the said Nazi, they were fighting to become what and most finally the hell did they go I felt their presences and then nothing.
I guess the answers could be pretty simple I mean Shirou was able to cut Gilgamesh's arm off and we did end up winning a war we honestly had zero business winning, so I come up with my own life by code don't fuck with teenagers from my country your plan will fall to shit apparently.
"rin hurry up we gotta get ready for the end times" a random student comes to "inform" me.
"it's going to be fine" I casually respond it was nothing we couldn't do anything about it.
"FINE FINEE do you think it's going to be fine our top mages have left to go to Japan"
"look you simpleton this is probably the closest equivalent to the root so, of course, the tops ones would go and see so they to can attain that magic" it was quite simply the energy I felt earlier was the equivalent of two big bangs if I knew what the root felt like that would be it.
"oh um uhhh"
"are you going to try to ask me out or ask for tutoring" I have heard that er um uhhh way too many times.
"I was going to ask for some lessons didn't you say you were dating someone earlier"
"you listened maybe when I have the time man"
"alright tohsaka"
the dude seems reasonable nah I can't teach someone yet maybe I'll rain check or I'll just give him a dumb-down version of my notes.
"wait a minute there was no way the Nazis had mages nor wizards to my knowledge so how did they even"
"your quite the talented mage but even you couldn't escape the ghetto of foreknowledge" that voice I had multiple wards and such to protect my mind what the hell how did he and what does he mean by foreknowledge?
"Gaia and Alaya has temporarily has a grasp of mages souls and the souls of certain individuals also known as heroic spirits temporarily freeing you from the foreknown world it was quite interesting" this voice is giving off the vibe of a snake and the transcended all vibes so I naturally ask the necessary questions the things I needed to know
"Who are you"
"I have many names my most recent ones were Karl kraft and Mercurius and the oldest out of these three only one person is allowed to speak is Alessandro di Cagliostro"
"what do you want I mean who have the mages dream magic at the highest level and such"
"for my goddess to take the throne and kill this old snake I want the world of foreknowledge gone forever for it was my law that created this eternally reapting hell the grass ain't so good over here little mage "
"Why did you perform magic on the nazis of all people" it was morally well horrible why would a wizard presumably trapped in an infinitely reapting world want to help what he has to know is one of the worst groups in human history.
"my opposite was a part of this group the bringer of the end times he's my backup plan just in case also a close friend I couldn't care for the war nor the atrocities committed during it" welp this snake is as he sounds a snake cold unfeeling a monster among monsters a true snake
"how old are you cogliostro was around during the 1750's"
"way too old im as old as the universe itself I've been to the end before it reapted over and over and over again im afraid that im running out of time I must perform for my marguerite"
"wait please don't-" he already left the way he was talking he was almost like no that pressure he was a god one who was utterly tired of his existence and he recognized my talents which was nice I now I have to get stronger I won't let Shirou nor anyone else I must capitalize on my talent and make a whole bunch of money no one and nothing would be able to dent my diamond wallet.
