I Am A Villain

Chapter 26 - Unknown knight!

[A.N: The sacred gears retrieved till now are: Twice critical(Not anymore), Alphecca Tyrant (Lost when hit with True Longinus) Boosted Gear, Divine Dividing, Annihilation Maker, Sephiroth Graal (Searching for it while summoned).Hope you are happy because more will just make a mess. He is smart but he is not perfect. He will have some losses. Zero's strength is on the upper spectrum of DxD so keep in mind that while some gears may be cool they are not very useful.]

As Zero made his way outside the church he slowly disappeared into the wind. Not much later both Emiya and Rin also made their way out, Emiya having a complicated look on his face. Walking back home Emiya started talking to Rin when suddenly Saber intervened.

Saber: "Shirou!"

As they turned their heads they suddenly saw a little girl with white hair and a more than 2 meters tall heavily muscled man beside her.

Illya: "Good evening, Onii-chan. This is the second time we've met."

Rin: "Be careful, that servant's power is incomparable."

Illya: "Hello Rin, my name is Illya, Illyasviel von Einzbern… Understand? I don't think any more salutations are necessary since you will all be dying here."

Emiya: "…"

Illya: "All right, I'll be killing you. Do it, Berserker."

While the battle continued Zero was in the middle of an important experiment.

'Okay so... one, now it is two, three, four… All that Emiya Shirou achieved between his 'conviction' and his first fight as a master is… yelling 'Saber' four times… impressive.'

As the sword was about to descend on Saber Shirou started running towards her.

'Oi oi, this isn't a show anymore, I can't have you accidentally dying just yet… I'll personally end your life later on so don't be in such a hurry.'

As the Berserker was about to strike a dark figure appeared in front of him, punching his sword and disappearing again.

While the events took the same route as before Zero was contemplating his recent exchange.

'Hahahaha, indeed I was right. These servants are nothing like those useless gods. In the last second when Berserker detected me he increased the strength applied on the sword.'

As Zero raised his right arm a deep gash could be seen in it, Zero keeping it purposely open to remember and examine if any special properties were used except brute strength.

'Hope you dance better than your deadbeat uncle.'

Slowly moving away Zero decided to follow Berserker.

'This world is… different, I can feel a faint connection with it. The closer this game comes to an ending the fainter it will become. Meaning as all the other servants I will be returned to where I was… hopefully.'

Zero could be seen in the woods, on his knees tired and almost falling. For those who had faced him before this would be an odd sight as Zero never gets tired.

'Hah… I finally finished it. Who would have thought that a sacred art, created by a mortal would be this exhausting to my current self? The principle is easy but for my body, it would seem exceptionally difficult to achieve.'

'For the last test, I would need a servant… Might as well go with Berserker.'

As Illya was traveling with berserker an armored figure suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their path. She immediately sensed that this was not a normal human, probably a servant.

Illya: "Berserker, kill him."

Zero: "Yes Berserker, kill me. Let me see the famous Hercules in action."

In but a moment Berserker was in front of Zero swinging the sword which passed right through Zero. Not a moment after the afterimage was dispersed Zero appeared above Berserker closing his fist with a small pop and punching right the Berserker right in the head.

The Berserker was smashed into the ground, creating a giant crater before jumping up and heading towards Zero again, this time much faster.

Zero: "Yes, that's it. Remember if you can't kill me your little master is going to be next."

'I don't know how much of an effect this is going to have on a mad berserker, but its always worth a shot.'

As the battle continued Berserker slowly got faster, stronger, and more dangerous.

Zero: "Well, I guess that is all the information I need. I have a good idea of where I stand now. "

Without saying anything else a loud bang was heard as Berserker suddenly fell to his knees.

Zero: "Oh… cant handle a little gravity increase? Though I guess you didn't have this back then. As to show my appreciation I'll allow you to partake in my last experiment."

As Zero grabbed Hercules by the neck, he used his other hand to summon the sword and stab Hercules through the heart, repeatedly sending magic to keep killing him until his lives ran out and finally consuming him.

'It seems souls of servants are heavily guarded by the world and the grail. I can only take the body… I need to start researching into the soul. The process so far has been automatic so I've been taking it for granted. '

'Tch… that pesky grail. It has the protection and support of the laws of the world. It seems I still don't have enough power to do something considered unacceptable by the world. In DxD it would have been so easy.'

Looking at the side I saw the Ilya watching in shock and desperation as the Berserker's body disappeared.

Zero: "Illyasviel von Einzbern, do know that while I do not take any p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e in what I am about to do, I also know best that, no leniency is to be shown towards enemies. At this moment you are that enemy."

Zero: "You have lived a life unsuitable for a child, so let me send you to join your parents." – Zero said as he readied his sword.

Illya: "From the moment Berserker was defeated I had no choice in the matter." – Illya said calmly.

Zero: "Indeed. I'll make sure you don't feel pain."

As he said that Zero slowly walked towards Illya as she closed her eyes, waiting for the inevitable end.

Meanwhile in another dimension… On a certain hill overseeing the sunset, a knight in dark armor was sitting down.

Looking at the ancient piece of a sword made into a makeshift necklace, hanging around her neck nobody knew what she was thinking about.

Unknown: "In another world… in another time… where are you now?" – the knight said as her head tilted upwards.

As the knight got up a cold but anxious gleam could be seen in her eyes.

Unknown: "Before… I knew I couldn't be with you, but now that I am covered in so much blood and darkness… will you approach me once again? Will you hate me for not being who I was? Will you hate me for not being the righteous knight that I once was?"

Slowly moving away from the spot the knight got on her horse and started moving away, her head filled with countless thoughts.

[Guess who it is *evil chuckle*, guess what I, the Author have made possible muahahaha *evil laugh* ]
