S2 Chapter 1: Arrival

Unisberg the city that never ceases to change, in just 7 months, the city has expanded exponentially. Now boasting a population of 30,022 people, from hard working salary men, diligent business women, parents and children to the three residential Masters. Much has gone on since the events overwritten by the grail as one might expect and doubly so for the Masters, but all was far from over...

"Coordinates locked in. Entering controlled space."

In the newly developed Cherry Grove neighborhood, a series of modern style townhomes Master Adam was moving into a larger place.

"Ahh! We're finally done! Let's go grab something to eat!" Musashi stretches out her arms happily.

Ushiwakamaru while surveying from the top of the staircase, "Mhm, what say you My Lord?"

Adam, the Master of this new home and his loyal three servants are at the kitchen counter finishing the remaining paperwork for renting the living space.

"Uh yeah, give me a moment."

Archer of Inferno walks by carrying two large boxes filled with her games and gaming set up among her other items. Musashi in a slump, wobbles her way to the couch with her stomach grumbling.

"Suddenly... my energy is gone... r-rice ba-ll..."

"Alright, I can just finish this later," Adam drops the pen and stretches himself, before yawning.

"Agh! I'm full of energy again! Off we go Sw~eetie!" Musashi jumps to their feet and swoops up her lover.

Ushiwakamaru puts out her head from the bottom stairs, "I'll take a chicken teriyaki bowl My Lord."

Archer comes down from the attic," I will be fine thank you, I shall continue to work around the house."

Musashi opens the door, and exits.

"You can put me down now you know?" Adam says a little over the ordeal as he orders an Oober.

"Ahaha, kinda forgot you were there for a moment," Musashi puts him down, her stomach grumbles again, and her mouth begins to upturn.

The two stand there in brief silence before Musashi erupts, digging into her coat and pulling out a bag of rice crackers to munch on. She's nearly tearing up as she eats, as Adam looks at her with some adoration.

"Good grief."

"I wanted to save th- munch munch- for when gulp- everything was unpac—mhm!"

Adam had suddenly kissed Musashi.

"Wh- wha?! Gee, I don't know what to make of that! Hehe..." Musashi in a gushy manner begins to mumble to herself.

"That should be enough Mana to hold you over."

"Um... are you two going to get in?"

The Oober driver waits for the love birds on the street.

"That was quick," Adam thinks to himself walking to the vehicle, Musashi coming to, follows happily.

Meanwhile that evening, in the higher echelons of living in Unisberg, chaos broke out in Waterbridge once again.

"What do you mean by ANOTHER Saber?! How can I, Nero Claudius, the greatest, most beautiful, and most genius Emperor in all of history be replaced?!"

"Nero you're not being replaced, look he was just in need of some help so I made a contract. There's nothing wrong with having an extra Saber," says Shou, the second Master of Unisberg, doing his best to get his point across to Nero, his premier servant and budding partner. Though things were in a bit of a sticky situation at the current point in time.

"Hmph!" Nero turns away with her arms crossed.

"Look, he's a nice enough guy," Shou says, reaching out to Nero.

"Oh my my. I cannot say I didn't foresee this, but we have to find a way to resolve this," Caster of Midrash enters the living room from the home's main corridor.

"Caster! Lease your summons! We must begin our attack on Shou! Let my heart set these hallowed halls ablaze!" Nero struts out of the living room with her head held high.

"Oh my goodness. You can't be serious... Caster, she isn't really going to burn the house down will she?" Shou asks.

Caster shakes her head, "You couldn't even pay me to fix this one," and with that Caster continues on her way.

Shou sighs and turns around to find Heracles standing in the corner by the lamp, "You have anything?"

Heracles grunts.

"Of course."

"Hahahahaha, magnificent! Master Shou! Come forth, I have news befitting your audience." Ozymandias strolls into Shou's home, the door swinging shut in his wake.

"What's up Ozymandias?" Shou inquires, sitting down in his favorite armchair.

"Mhm, " Ozymandias sits before Shou in his personal throne located beside the tv," We will capitalize on Unisberg's expansion! And extend our reach."

"What do you mean by that?" Shou looks at his companion curiously.

"Caster had gone ahead and run some numbers for me, and the results were but a fraction of my brilliance. I will further bless these lands with my works and have the people pay to live in them!"

"You mean real estate? I thought Nero... or no... so what does that have to do with me?"

"Profit of course, you shall be my attendant on the matter, and as such, you'll be rewarded for your efforts."

"Your attendant?"

"Don't be blinded by greed Master Shou, being second to the Pharaoh is not an opportunity bestowed upon mortals as is." Ozymandias puts one leg over the other and leans back with a proud smile.

"The payments have been getting steep. But I'm not stupid, there's more to this and before I agree to anything how much will I be making?"

"Hahaha, nonsense. It's only natural for a Pharaoh to appease the people as he sees fit, not to mention as one called upon via the grail, helping their 'Master' is a given. As for money is concerned, between Myself, Caster and you, you'll be receiving 30 percent of the total income.

Shou puts his hands together, and then looks to Heracles who is looking back at him.

"Alright, but I'm not going to just be doing paperwork," Shou says as he holds out his hand.

Ozymandias looks at it in surprise if only for a moment and then extends his own, completing the handshake.

Adam and Musashi are pulled up in front of their new home via the Oober driver.

"Have a nice night, " the driver says as Musashi and Adam exit the vehicle with their take out in tow.

"You too Mikey!" Musashi cheerfully looks back at him before continuing onward to the door. Mikey smiles back and then drives off towards the unfinished parts of the neighborhood.

"W-wagh?!" Adam calls out in front of the door looking off to the side of the patio. Musashi close behind him turns to look, "Careful wit— agh! A corpse?!"

"... A M-master..."

A human figure shrouded in white robbing hangs over the patio fencing. Ushiwakamaru opens the door, " My Lord, welcome ba— a corpse?"

The three residents of the home look to each other before going in to assist the interloper.
