Chapter 20: It's Just The Beginning
Year 11: Day 234: It's Time Part 2
(Emerald Forest)
I continue walking while ignoring the people asking me how did I gain one of the [Ancient Semblances] from the old era. Shockingly, it's mostly Blake, that's asking the questions while Weiss coming in second. With Pyrrha being third, while the rest didn't have many questions and more of speaking out their own opinions about learning about all these interesting facts from Ren.
Thinking about it for a moment if I should meet up with Ozpin and Glynda or not. Then, decide it wasn't worth the drama, and I don't have Esdeath here to talk for me.
"This is the far as I can take you kids." I said to everyone for the first time, causing the future team RWBY and JNPR to look at me with a shocked look on their faces.
"What you mean kids?! You don't look any older than us!" Ruby hated it when someone calls her a kid all the time and felt insulted at this.
"I'm 30 years old." I said dryly, causing Ruby to shut her mouth the moment she heard me. This made the others more shocked than before from finding out my age. "Good luck, kids." With that said, I use [Time Alter: Chronos Rose: 5] first, then [Shundo: Bo-Bup] to disappear before their eyes instantly.
(Vale: Vale City: Beacon Academy: Campus)
Out of the Emerald Forest and somewhere in the Beacon Academy's Campus, but that didn't stop me at all. As I continue running until away from this place. Plus, I don't even need an Airship to reach to the City.
20 minutes later*
(Vale: Vale City)
If it weren't for [Gamer's Body]. I would have long by then be out of breath and fall into the ocean, where sea types Grimm would devour me alive. But, man, the distance from Beacon and to the City should have taken me longer than 20 minutes to reach. I know for sure it would be longer by an Airship.
Walking around the place as I pickpocketed a few people for their [Lien]. Can't figure out a way to earn [Lien] besides stealing at the moment. No way was I'm planning to sell anything in the [Gate of Babylon].
Well, maybe the food, since I can just get more from the Super God Gene universe. And the restriction of those monsters' meat will only work in that universe. So there no need to worry about the native of this universe gaining any [Geno Points].
Looking around the place and see if there were any good place to set up a Restaurant to make some money since stealing would lead to unwanted attention. Not like I already got it, thanks to using the [Talis Activation] skill, with Ozpin and his little group recorded the whole thing.
While I'm at it, I was checking for a good place to set up an [Ark's Gate] as well. This way, I can hide the fact about how I can teleport others to different places by using these [Ark's Gates]. Kind of like a teleportation based [Semblance] in this universe.
30 minutes later*
I'm shocked these people are so easy to pickpocket. Nonetheless, this is good for me and just hope my LUCK stat would keep Ozpin and his group off my back for a while until I get a good base in this kingdom without having him breathing down my neck.
After all, Ozpin is kind of my best option to grab one of those [Relics] if I want to leave this universe. But, there is no way Ozpin would hand it over to some stranger like that. Not to mention, he would demand something in exchange for it, but at the end, he may or may not give me the [Relic] at all.
So yeah, not taking my chance with that guy, who would willingly to possess a kid when he dies by Cinder's hands. Still can't figure what Ozpin's [Semblance].
And man do I need to find a book based on universe travel if I'm so limited these restrictions and random universe picked for me.
I pause for a moment when there is literally an Apartment Building up for sale. On another note, the Apartment Building has 5 floors. This pretty good, since the first floor could be turned into a Restaurant while the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors could be used for something else. Well, one of those floors could be used as our cover-up of where we sleep. While we're really sleeping back in the [Ark].
Now, that I have some [Lien] taken from people without their notices. I would need to get one of the girls down here. Since they got the basic knowledge of this universe while I don't. That includes knowing the value of these [Lien]. Which I have no clue if I got the one that worth like $100 back in my universe or just $1. Hard to tell when these plastic cards don't have any numbers on them.
30 minutes later*
I manage to get one of Repellista's [Lighthouse] out in the open before turning invisible afterward. As Repellista quickly hacks into the Vale Kingdom's main database to create identities for us, along with a background setting to keep a few people off our buŧŧs for a while until those fake identities become useless.
Also, setting up the [Ark's Gate Number 1] to send Esdeath down before I had to erase it afterward. Sadly, Yuri and Ryun have to stay back in the [Ark] since we don't need everyone down here just yet.
With Esdeath here now, I passed all the [Lien] I had on me to her since she actually knows what they worth and how to use them unlike me. Once more, I feel happy about marrying Esdeath since if she wasn't with me. Then, things would get a lot harder for me to bend in with the native of this universe.
No clue if Yuri and Ryun would have married me if it wasn't for Esdeath's presence. Ryun could have been my 2nd or 1st wife, depending on how things go. Yuri would just be a friend at least, not close to being in a relationship and it is thanks to Esdeath that made the whole relationship went by faster than I could ever think could happen.
Currently, we're waiting on Repellista to finish placing false data about us into the Vale Kingdom's database before we start purchasing a few things, to disguise ourselves from the higher up, being Ozpin and the Council of Vale from plain sight.
While I'm at it, I took out the finished [Skill Book] I have been working on for a while now. Of course, I have many more, so I don't have to waste any more time later in the future to work on them for the entire day or even days without stopping.
So far, I only have one book that's finished and wonder if I should really use that [Skill Book Creation] now or wait for later after leveling the other skills to max level. Better use it now since I may not get the chance to do so later in this universe.
DING!*
Would you like to learn the skill: [Bypass Restrictions]?
[Yes/No]?
'Do I really want to do this?' I thought to myself, as Esdeath and I continue to wait on Repellista to finish her work while we scout the area without trying to make it look like we are.
Thinking about it a few moments, if I should. I was thinking about working on those seven skills of mine before getting any new skills. Then, I begin to think about it a lot more and decided not to. Better not get too greedy and end up killing myself for it.
I was about to hit the no to reject the option of learning my new skill on my interface when someone bumps my right elbow, causing me to hit the yes instead, much to my shock and rage. As I just use up the one [Skill Book Creation] now and if I wanted to use another [Skill Book] I created with my own hands. I have to be at level 60 before I could.
Now the [Skill Book] disappeared and the new knowledge of my skill downloaded into my brain against my will.
Slowly, I look in the direction of who bumped me and found someone I didn't think I would meet on my first day in this universe. Neopolitan, or Neo for short, in her disguise during for the Vytal Festival Tournament. Well, I didn't have any reason to fight her for many reasons besides self-defense, but now that she made me lose a good chance to pick a different [Skill Books] I created later in the future. Because of this, I have a small grudge with her now.
Yeah, she better hope I don't find her alone later in the future. Or she's going to be in a world of pain.
"Something wrong?" Esdeath ask me when she notices the way I narrow my left eye at someone. Showing that I just targeted someone as my enemy now.
"I wasted a book because someone bumped into me. Now I have to wait until 60 to use another book." I said to Esdeath without the needs to tell her everything in the open. All the keywords are already mentioned, allowing Esdeath to understand why I'm in a foul mood now. For a few seconds, before [Gamer's Mind] wipe it out of me and I became calm again.
"Which one is it?" Esdeath knew how her husband wouldn't want to waste a good chance to get another good skill without being completely sure about it. So, she just hopes her husband was checking for a good one. Well, her memory of which [Skill Books] her husband was working on are finished.
Bringing it up through my [Archive] before sending it over to Esdeath, for her to read and see what the new skill I just got.
Where Esdeath pull out a [Scroll], which we bought a few for everyone to use just a few minutes ago and Esdeath using one as a cover to look like she trying to search something up while reading what my new skill can do.
[Bypass Restrictions] - Active - Lvl.1/100 - EXP: 0% - MP cost: 100% MP
Description: The ability to bypass any restriction of any rules and anytime. Without any limits.
1st Effect: Able to bypass any restrictions for (level x 5) seconds
1st Effect's Restriction: Will be placed under a cooldown of (12/level) month after use.
"Wow, talk about taking so long to use." Esdeath didn't outright say it, but I knew she was talking about the restriction for that skill, which is funny when the skill is meant to bypass any restrictions and the skill have one of its own as well.
"Yeah, I figure this would help me. Since the old saying, 'If you're not cheating. Ya, not trying'. Well, I based on that and hate how much restrictions I got." I said to Esdeath, who just hum to herself and understand about that saying. Since she did that many times back in her career as a soldier for the Empire back in her universe.
"So, what are you going to use it on?" Esdeath wonder what her husband would use this new skill on, seeing it could bypass any restrictions of any rules and anytime. Without any limits. Pretty much saying, that as long I have 5 seconds, then I can even bypass the strongest vault in all history and take all the money inside.
"Going to grab something that I have been dying to get the first time I read about. Give me a few seconds and make sure no one disturbs me." I said to Esdeath, as she nods at me and quickly pays full attention to the surroundings, ready to take down anything that could disturb me.
Quickly, I activate the [Bypass Restrictions] and did what I needed in those 5 seconds before I have to wait for a whole year before I could use it again.
DING*

DING!*
The skill: [Bypass Restriction] has entered a long period of cooldown and can be reused by Year 12: Day 234.

Also, the user can also combine these power to create even more powerful techniques and attacks.

All of them will be merged into this skill and require the user to level each one by a level before the [Fundametal Force Manipulation] can enter the next level. Ex.

8th Effect's Restriction: Same 1st Effect's Restriction.
I didn't show it on my face, but I'm having a major bad headache and feel like breaking something to relieve somewhat of the pain, but I have enough self-control to not do that. Also, I had worse and this should be counted as my top 10 of what caused me lots of pain. And out of those 10, half of them are caused by Esdeath due to her yandere moments.
"Kay, done." I said to Esdeath, as I grab a napkin to my right hand and wipe the nosebleed due to the overload of my brain processing the [Fundamental Force Manipulation].
[Bypass Restrictions] look like a good skill, but the backlash afterward isn't something I was surprised at and figure it would happen like this or something else. Either way, I got scoff of free without having some kind of penalty. All I got is a big headache that [Gamer's Body] and [Gamer's Mind] are working overtime to repair the damage to my brain.
As I quietly suck in a few seconds of air to speed the recovery. Rather not end up dying to my brain giving out on me.
DING!*
You have successfully survived through the process of gaining the [Fundamental Force Manipulation] and have unlocked the next effects of the [Wisdom of The Sage].
[Wisdom of The Sage] - Active - Lvl.100/100 - EXP: 100% - MP cost: Varies (- 10% HP per use due to not possessing the [Jade Emperor's Physical Power. This will disappear one user gain it.)
Description: The [Wisdom of The Sage] other times referred to as [The King's Wisdom] or [Sage's Eye], where the user's left eye holds the Jade Emperor's various abilities. However, without the [Jade Emperor's Physical Power], this skill will shorten the user's lifespan.
1st Effect: Gain access to [Creation] - the success rate is (level)% + LUCK/10
1st Effect's Restriction: Require user know the materials and the design of what to create.
2nd Effect: Gain access to [Vital Energy Manipulation]
2nd Effect's Restriction: The user can't create, but only manipulate and require physical contact to work.
3rd Effect: Increase INT and WIS x (level)
4th Effect: The ability to use [Fundamental Force Manipulation]
5th Effect: Gain access to [Technique Mimicry]
5th Effect's 1st Restriction: Require the user to see the [Technique] first, to work.
5th Effect's 2nd Restriction: Require the user to analyze the [Technique] and recreate them.
'Well, shit. Does this mean that [The End] was a waste after all?' I feel like I should bash someone's head in just to release my frustration. Then, pause for a moment to reread the [Wisdom of The Sage]'s 5th Effect before I realize it's technique, not skill.
I let out a sigh of relief when I realize [The End] skill was still useful, hard to use, but still useful later in the future. Since I can get the skill, which includes those techniques/spells later on. While the [Technique Mimicry] is very limited.
Esdeath just looks at me as she waits for the new skill to appear on the interface in front of her, which only took a few couples of seconds before Esdeath whistle in awe. I also included what those skills merged with the [Fundamental Force Manipulation] does. Along with a good detail with a few examples to give Esdeath the understanding of what they could do as well.
Even with [Fundamental Force Manipulation] and the skills under it is at level 1. They're still overpowered to the point of me being able to kill without trying, and I can do that already, thanks to maxing out my [Fire Devil Slayer Magic] and [Sky Dragon Slayer Magic], along with [Storm God Slayer Magic].
Just these three skills alone by themselves could be considered powerful in their own right. But, together and in one person; well, I'm not shocked that I have an easier time, fighting beings above my levels.
As only Esdeath could beat me while Yuri is still getting there. Since I gave her my Teigu to use a couple years back. Yeah, the Teigu wasn't much use for me and I gave it to Yuri, who easily adapt her fighting style with it and know how to use it better than I do.
The [Skiajati] is now Esdeath's main weapon now and replaced her long rapier, not like it's any different for Esdeath. Furthermore, thanks to the effects of the [Skiajati], Esdeath became a lot more dangerous than ever. Where Esdeath can go invisible after killing.
Her trump made it easier for her too. So, I wasn't sad to give away one of my best weapon to my wives. Since those two can use those weapons much better than I could. I could just use something else instead without any problem.
Still, now I have [Fundamental Force Manipulation]. I have even more reason to use the [Wisdom of The Sage] besides creating more expendable swords for me to use for a while.
Thanks to [Elemental Sight]; I can recreate new swords that used to make the [Korosu] and the [Skiajati], but in a lower quality, due to the [Wisdom of The Sage] would kill me outright if I was to use it too long. Well, that was when the skill level was low and not at max level. Even then, I didn't have the experience of making any weapons besides trial and errors until I got them to work.
But, the quality did change a little after getting max level, since I don't have to worry about killing myself of doing repeated due to failing to create something. Its just the quality would be close to worthless.
Nonetheless, after over the years, I can make swords out of the materials from the [Korosu] and [Skiajati] with ease now after a long period of time using them. Also, I got too used to using expendable swords to the points of being able to create them by just a single thought, but limit myself due to the 10% HP drained from me each use. So, 9 is my limit until I recover.
So, can't be like Shirou Emiya and create countless of swords on the whim while discarding those swords after they break. As a result, I had to go with quality instead of quantity.
Not to mention, these swords won't disappear afterward, so I can just store those newly created expendable swords into the [Gate of Babylon] to save myself the trouble in fights later in the future.
"Oh, she has just finished. We can start our business now." Esdeath said to me, breaking me out of my thoughts and nod at my wife.
Soon, by the end of the day, we manage to buy the deed for the Apartment building I found, along with ordering a few things online to get things started later. Along with getting a company to remodel the entire Apartment Building, and to make it done faster by giving them more [Lien] to motivate them.
A month later*
Year 11: Day 264: New Life
(Vale: Vale City: Apartment Building: Restaurant Floor)
"Welcome to the Restaurant of The Unknown." Ryun greets the next customers coming into Esdeath's Restaurant. Yup, Esdeath owns the 1st floor, which is called the Restaurant Floor by Esdeath. Also, Esdeath being the chef would have made some people wondering if this was the same Esdeath they knew and fear.
Of course, each of us has different jobs to do in this little Apartment of ours. With Esdeath being the head chef and the only chef unless she needs help, then I can come in to help out via [Gate of Babylon] with ease.
Luckily, there was no need for a dishwasher due to [Gate of Babylon]. Once more I'm grateful for having this skill.
Ryun is the cashier, who would welcome the customers and the one accepting the money from them. As well as making sure all customers are to pay for their meals. Willing or not, either way, we're getting our money for our service.
While Yuri is the server, and for a good reason too, when she can get things done easily and make sure the customers are fine, but made sure that no trouble occurs. Let just say, the customers have long learned their lessons not to test Yuri's patience or Ryun as well.
Since both have their ways of dealing with bad customers, in more than one way.
Of course, I help Yuri out as well, being mainly a server and helping Esdeath out sometime with difficult orders.
As for Repellista, she mostly stays in the 5th floor, which she claims as her territory for herself and does her job as a data broker for hire, along with other jobs, within reasons of course. Also, make sure to do all her deals online, stopping people from tracking her down for her skills.
Overall, I would say our little family is doing well for an entire month in this universe. There were some ups and downs in the progress, but we overcome them. By that, we cheat, we kill, we bribe, and make sure no one messes with us. That included those underground groups of Vale.
"Guys! I found him!" I heard a familiar voice I haven't heard since a month ago, then move to my right and grab the person from the back of their shirt, then raise them off their feet.
The person I'm holding by their shirt and lifting them off a few feet above the ground. I find myself staring at Nora, who is grinning at me and didn't seem to care that I'm holding her by the back of her shirt at all.
"Something you need, kid?" I look at Nora, then notice the rest of team JNPR standing at the entrance, with Ryun looking very annoyed at how Nora kind of ruin the setting of the Restaurant, that was peace and quiet until she showed up.
Before Nora could shout out her question, I just toss her to the entrance, making sure she lands on her feet as I whistle to my wives. "I'll be on my break for a few minutes."
Then, I walk out of the Apartment, with team JNPR following in my footsteps as I made sure not to cause any problem for my wives. Rather not end up as their target of frustration.
I can only handle Esdeath's frustration alone before Yuri and Ryun came into the pictures. Yeah, having three powerful women, one that just a bit weaker than the other two. Still wasn't something I could handle without giving up something in exchange.
So, I tried my best not to cause either two or all three wives of mine to be angry at the same time. If so, I would try my best to find a scapegoat unless I fail, then I just take it like men and survive through the whole deal.
"Alright. What do you kids want from me?" I ask them in a bored, laid back, a tone of voice. As my personality pretty much changed over the years from to an eager young man, that's trying to get stronger without wasting any moment to lose, to a mellow out guy, who just a bit lazy and will take it anytime I would feel like it.
But, not to the point of being a lazy bum like one of those guys from the Naruto universe. Because with a wife like Esdeath, then I'm just courting death now.
"We wanted to know why you were in the Emerald Forest in the first place." Ren said to me, as the other nods in agreement while Pyrrha glare at Jaune every moment she can and Jaune would flinch each time she does.
"Would you believe me if I said that someone forced me to drink enough to make me drunk, to the point of blacking out and find myself in that forest. Also, I was still a bit drunk and thought, Pyrrha was just a fragment of my mind playing on me. That includes all of you." I lie through my teeth without showing any sign of me lying to them.
"I can believe that. You look out of it most of the time." Pyrrha nods her head, as she met a few people like that before back in Mistral. She just didn't think she would find someone like that in Vale and in the Beacon Academy's territory.
"Same here. Saw it happen once with my Dad." Jaune still finds himself wondering to this day about how his own Dad managed to find a very valuable artifact while blacking out due to drinking too much. It's no wonder his Mom keeps forcing him to drink against his will whenever the family is in dire needs of money.
"Well, thanks for helping us out! We got into Beacon with your help!" Nora shouts in happiness and looks ready to hug me if she didn't know that I would dodge like I did a few minutes ago.
"So, unless you wish to eat here, then I have to say goodbye now. I have work to do. The ladies back in there will tear me a new one if I try not to help out." I said dully, causing Pyrrha and Nora to giggle since they knew what I meant while Jaune and Ren look clueless of my hidden meaning.
I walk back inside without bothering to hear what they say as I continue helping Yuri out with serving the foods to the customers, along with taking orders from those customers that just decided to order their food now.
With that said, team JNPR decides to come inside to eat as they heard a few good things about this place and wanted to try it out.
By the time they need to leave, they promised to come back whenever they can as the food here are great and would be a sad thing not to come here often.
The next day*
Year 11: Day 265: Night of Gathering
(Vale: Vale City: Apartment Building: Restaurant Floor)
After a long month, and using the [Fiction Adaption] to devour the [Skill Book] call Ninjas of Love. Yeah, not going to bother importing even another skill from it and grab one to exchange for a new [Universe of Knowledge].
Now, the reason why I kept on doing this when I promise myself to train myself in those low-level skills I have already. Well, none of them would help me out with the biggest restrictions placed on me since day 2 of gaining the Gamer's ability. And that stopping me from traveling to a new universe.
For the past whole month. I would exchange every day in the morning to see if I could get the right universe, but most of them are good, but I can't use pretty much all but a few skills. So, I gave them up and continue exchanging.
An entire month worth of switching for new [Universe of Knowledge] and I didn't get the one I would take fancy of. Look like my LUCK stat wasn't high enough to affect the universe I could get.
So far, I have yet to get the right universe and now to test my LUCK stat once more, to see if I could get the right universe for universe travel.
I let out a tired sign when I got another useless [Universe of Knwoledge] and wasn't worth keeping. And that's for the day drawing.
Dismissing the [Archive]'s interface, as I stretch my muscles and unlock the front door before switching the sign to open. Showing the Restaurant of Unknown is now open for business.
"Hey, Ragna. Do you mind taking over for me? Repellista found me someone requesting for an extermination mission. I rather not waste this chance to release my urge." Esdeath said to me, as she walks downstairs and in her General uniform, along with [Skiajati] attach to her left hip. Showing she ready to fight and kill by the look of it.
"Did you make sure that Repellista told the person that requested this mission that they are bound to the contract they signed when they picked one of us for hire?" I ask my wife before giving her a good morning kiss on the lip.
"Yup, like always. If they break the contract they lose everything, that includes releasing all dirty secrets of theirs to the world." Esdeath gives her husband a hug after the kiss and walks out the front door while giving her hip a few swags.
Staring at the nice buŧŧ of Esdeath before shaking my head as I head to the Kitchen. To get things started and by that, I mean to make sure no one could look inside the Kitchen unless something happens.
As for the whole extermination mission thing; well, this is a dangerous world and neither myself or my wives, maybe Repellista, would allow our skills to rust. I don't know about myself unless I count pure instinct alone, then I guess. So, one or two of us would go out to do those extermination missions, along with any other types of mission to change things a bit. As long we wanted to, that is.
Of course, [God's Sanctuary] could solve that problem, but we still didn't get enough experience facing the native of this universe. By that, I mean we need to readjust our skills to prevent us from destroying the entire place.
I know I shouldn't be talking thanks to using the [Tails Activation], but I needed something to make it look like I'm no one to mess with.
After checking everything is in good condition back in the Kitchen. I walk out and notice Ryun walking down in her usual outfit, not caring about professional appearance. Not like Esdeath really cared about professional appearance.
"Morning, Ryun." I give my 3rd wive a kiss on the lip while giving her a buŧŧ a squeeze, and after looking at Esdeath; well, Ryun has a desirable buŧŧ as well. Not to mention Ryun would always mȯȧn whenever I give it a squeeze, along with her brėȧsts, which was a given.
"Ready for the day?" I ask her, as I wait for a customer to come in before going back into the Kitchen.
"Yes, my god." Ryun smile at me, even after all these years, she still calls me her god. Tried to stop her, but she will only stop when in public, but in private. She would call me her god whenever she gets the chance. Even during sėx time. Pretty sure Ryun gets off it by calling me her god.
"Where Yuri? Is she up yet?" I ask Ryun, but before she could reply to me.
"I'm up, now where my morning kiss?" Yuri came downstairs with a grin on her face, then pull me into a deep kiss once she got close enough, including her own tongue, leading to a tongue kissing. Which Yuri only accepts as a morning kiss.
"Okay, enough of that. We got work to do." Ryun said to us, as we broke the tongue kiss and Yuri just rolls her eyes at Ryun.
As the bell rings every time the front door open, Ryun has already turned around to welcome them. "Welcome to the Restaurant of The Unknown."
"See guys! There he is!" I see Nora pointing at me while ignoring Ryun completely, which Ryun didn't really care.
Yuri didn't like it when someone ruins her moment with her hubby other than her fellow wives. So, Yuri raises her left hand and made a gesture that she about to flick something, but didn't bother to move her spot.
Before Yuri could possibly kill someone, I push Yuri's left forearm up a little, where the moment Yuri flick her fingers, sending an air pressure blast above the kids' heads.
"Try not to kill anyone, love." I said to Yuri, who huff at me before going into the Kitchen to get something quick to eat and away from the shocked kids that ruin her good mood.
Thanks to Repellista, we managed to get someone to unlock all of the girls' [Aura]. And this included Esdeath herself as well, but I didn't do it as there a high chance of something going wrong if I have my [Aura] unlocked.
Either way, the girls from the Tower of God universe easily got better at using their [Aura] like they do with [Shinsoo], but very limited]. It wasn't that shocking to say that Yuri has more [Aura] than everyone else, tying with Esdeath's [Aura Reserve].
Learn a few basics of using their [Aura] and all the girls in my family can replicate their attacks/moves in the replacement of [Shinsoo] somehow. Honestly, I thought [Aura] would limit them somewhat, but they managed to be able to use [Aura] like [Shinsoo] without any problem after a couple of weeks of practices in the Super God Gene universe.
So yeah, they may have replaced [Aura] with [Shinsoo] doesn't mean their controls are that good. One good hit could kill someone with their own [Aura] unlock. And that's a proven fact when Yuri was sent out on an extermination mission with Esdeath and easily killed all the enemies with a few flicks of her fingers.
Those [Aura Shield] the enemies had didn't help one bit at all, in fact, it just made them wished for a quicker death after Esdeath got her hands on them.
"What was that?!" Jaune cried out in shock and fear. Breaking me out of my thoughts before I lose my self-aware again, which would be bad.
"Please try to not make any noise in this Restaurant. If I wasn't here to stop the girls from attacking. We will have lots of deaths in public by now." The countless of death not in public went unsaid and a few these kids clearly figure that out, with the way they tense up.
"So, you're not a Huntsman?" Ruby asked me with sad eyes, which have caused other to feel something from this. But, [Gamer's Mind] rejected those feelings and only my wives would be able to have my unrestricted emotions freely. As for everyone else, they only see me in a bored, calm, and cold look on my face.
"No." I said simply, as if someone needs to be a Huntsmen or Huntresses to be strong. Look at all those criminals, but I kept my shut mouth about this and just leave it in the back of my mind.
"Oh." Ruby didn't know what to expect, "Well, I'm Ruby Rose. That's my sister, Yang Xiao-Long." Ruby introduces herself, along with her sister, then started introducing the other. With Weiss Schnee next, then Blake Belladonna. Afterward, Nora Valkyrie, Lie Ren, and lastly, Jaune Arc.
"And this is Pyrrha Nikos, who would have been your partner if you were a student of Beacon Academy like the rest of us." Ruby finishes off by introducing everyone to me and my wives, with Yuri being able to easily hear from the Kitchen.
"Hello again! I still haven't told you yesterday that I hate you for staying behind. At least, long enough for me to find a way to switch Jaune for someone else." Pyrrha smile at me, but was completely fake and the other knew it. Even Ruby, as she knew what Jaune did to Pyrrha, that made her like this.
"What did the kid, even do to you, to the point of wanting to find a different partner?" Ryun asks Pyrrha, causing her to look at a fellow redhead.
"He called me a sŀut when we just met. Then, he bad mouths me before the Beacon Academy's initiation were about to start. Save the guy, then called a bitch afterward." Pyrrha mentions a few things after becoming team JNPR, with Jaune being the leader much to her annoyance as she would rather have Ren or even Nora be the leader of the team instead of Jaune.
"No wonder the Pyrrha hate ya gut Vomit Boy." Ruby said to Jaune, with a frown on her face. Even she would find that offensive if he said that to her, then he will get a close greeting with her [Crescent Rose].
"It's a common thing! A lot of people get motion sickness!" Jaune cried out in defense. "And don't act like you didn't have a bad luck on the first day either, Crater Face."
"Hey, leave my sister alone, Vomit Boy. Or you'll have more problem than just with Pyrrha." Yang growl at Jaune, causing him to flinch at the way Yang's eye color went red every time she's angry.
"Hey, if you kids going to make a ruckus in the Restaurant, then leave. We have a business to run and more customers will come in soon." Ryun said coldly, as she glares at the Beacon's students, causing all of them to feel like they in the presence of a being they wouldn't want to mess with. Some of them even took a few steps back.
"So you guys here to eat or what?" I ask the students while making sure to keep all of them in my sight, just in case one of them dare cause any problem, and by that, I mean Yang. Since I met with Junior and his gang members in his Club a few days ago. Yeah, they weren't happy still and remember about Yang.
"Actually, we were wondering if you train us." Pyrrha spoke out for the rest of them, making everyone nods their heads at me, this included Jaune. Maybe he a lot more different than the canon version.
"Don't you have teachers at Beacon, to do that for you?" I share a look with Ryun, wondering why these kids wanted me to train them. "Plus, why should I in the first place?"
After all, I have no obligation to help them. Therefore, I have no need to train them when they asked me to.
"Come on! Please?! All they do is make us fight each other under the tournament rules. We don't even fight against any Grimm that much, and that's on a rare day too. And that has happened only thrice this month!" Ruby cried out to get some pity out of me. As she and the others give their own inputs about how the first month went for them.
"I rather not. To be honest, I have a job to do. As you can see." I spread my arms wide to prove my point that we're in a Restaurant, that's also an Apartment Building. But, we aren't opening any rooms for tenants to rent. Since we're pretty much got an income two ways. One: Esdeath's Restaurant. Two: Repellista's website for hiring us for requests. Within reason, of course. Our reasons, not theirs.
"It is kind of rude to ask someone to leave his job for random strangers, without giving them a good reason." Weiss said to everyone. Plus, she knows this from experience as well. Doesn't mean she didn't want someone strong as a trainer, like the ones back home. But, the man before her eyes are completely out of their league.
"You better not be leaving! We're missing one already! And we need all the help we can get!" Yuri shouted from the Kitchen as if she heard every single thing and she already rejected these students' request for me training them.
"Hey! He can decide for himself if he wanted to train us or not!" Yang shouted at Yuri, but didn't dare force her way into the Kitchen. Since that would defeat the purpose of her and the others coming here, which would put a bad picture for them.
"Okay, I'm going to have to stop you there. I can't have you guys make her angry." I glance back at the Kitchen, not worrying about her destroying anything. Since she would have to speak with Esdeath afterward and she learned her lesson the hard way.
"Also, I still haven't agreed to this whole training thing. Not to mention a good reason to make me want to train you kids." I said to the Beacon's students. As I point this out to them since it looks like they didn't get it in their heads, that not everything will go their way by just asking or doing something that could get them in troubles without thinking they the aftermath of their doing.
"Aww, come on! Isn't the older generation suppose to teach the next generation to overcome them to solve the problems they couldn't solve during their generation?!" Nora ask me in a pleaded tone.
"Still not a good reason and you can go back to Beacon Academy for that. After all, it is an academy of the older generation teaching the next generation. So, I don't know why you saying that to me." I replied to Nora's question with ease. Plus, this is pretty much true to other places.
"But we just said it before! They don't teach us that much! All is just homework and boring lecture! And we don't even get to fight each other that long and most of the time, none of us get to before Combat Class end! So we fight less against each other and even less with Grimm!" Ruby cried again, as she waves her arms in frustration.
"What can we do, to get you to train us? We came to Beacon Academy to learn how to fight, not...do history!" Ruby shout and look like she hated History Class from the look of it.
"Here's something to say about that." I said to Ruby, causing her along with the others that think having History Class wasn't something worth learning.
"Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it." I quote from a famous philosopher back in my universe, don't remember who, but I just know he's famous. Also, no clue if this quote was said in this universe yet.
"Before you ask, 'Do history repeat itself?' History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes." I'm getting a lost look from these kids, better change it to something simple for them to understand.
"Think of it like Grimm Class. You're literally studying the Grimm species and what they do. How in the world did this knowledge come from? People in the past went and risk their lives to studying the Grimm, in order to help the next Generation from becoming victims to the Grimm by studying their weakness and be more prepared. So, the more you know about the past, the better prepared you are for the future." I said to the students, causing almost all of them thinking about my words more, instead of dismissing them as unimportant.
"Mind giving me a different example?" Nora gives me a sheepish smile, showing me that she was one that still doesn't understand most of what I just said.
"Hmm." I think about how I should phrase my words for someone like Nora. And I can't just base this Nora with the Nora from canon version as that would be very stupid of mine.
"You play video games?" I ask Nora, who let out a snort and nod at me with a bright smile on her face, knowing that I'm going to use video gaming terms to help her out.
"New games without much information besides how the combat system work. Players would play through all the levels and experience all the game could show, then create a Beginner's Guide for the newbie to learn about the game. If you want another example, lots of pros would perform tests until they come with the results they could be used for the future, which would be turned into a Strategy Guide. However, not all guides are worth their salt. As it depends on you, to use these guides as a reference while experiencing the game yourself." I explain to Nora the best I can by using a few terms for gaming.
"Ooooh!" Nora looks like she just gained enlightenment and finally got some answers from multiple questions went unanswered for years.
"Wow, I never see it this way." Jaune comment with awe in his voice, where he feels like he should smack himself for not thinking school as a way game, but without the whole features as 'pause', 'save', 'load', and future knowledge.
"See! This is why you should train us! You better at teaching us than those teachers back at Beacon Academy!" Ruby point her fingers at me, with a bright smile on her face. Like she just won the battle.
"Ruby is right. So can you please train us, Sir?" Blake asks me in a soft voice, trying her best not to cause the man, who could turn into a fox faunus that could burn her alive.
"I'm starting to get annoyed. Let me rephrase it this way. Give ME a good reason for wanting to train you kids." I said to both team RWBY and JNPR. "Hey, Ryun. Still no customers?" I look back at my 3rd wife, who has been quiet for a while now and just blankly staring at the kids.
"It's still early in the morning. I'm surprised these kids manage to come here this early in the morning." Ryun said dryly, which I find myself wondering as well.
"To help us become better Huntsmen and Huntresses to fight the Grimm and to bring evil to justice?" Ruby look like her reason should be the best.
I glance at Ryun, whose body is shaking, showing she struggles not to laugh out loud, but keep her face blank.
"Here's the question for you. What is evil and what is justice? They are just words for many people to use for their benefit. You say you'll bring justice to evil? How do you truly know if they are evil? What if you're the evil one and the one you take down is, let say a thief, to jail, but that thief was stealing to feed their family. Well, you just starve that poor thief's family while the one trying to feed them is rotting in jail. Look like your justice turned into evil for that thief's family." I said to Ruby, causing her to flinch and look like she never thought of it this way.
"Seriously, what do they teach you kids these days? These kinds of stuff should be something you should know by now." I pause for a moment, then look at Ryun with a confused look on my face. "Do they?" I ask her since she and Yuri would mostly be talking with Repellista all the time compared to Esdeath and me.
"Not for Combat Schools from what I could recall." Ryun shrugs her shoulders at me, then I look back at the kids. "You kids may as well give up while you're ahead. This guy may give you good lectures on a few subjects. But, he is awful at teaching combat related things. Trust me on this. He is one of those natural self-learning genius while bad at teaching other unless they are a fellow natural self-learning genius as well." Ryun has already figured that out by Esdeath and why her god doesn't teach others that much.
"We can be natural self-learning genius too you know." Weiss said with a hint of pride in her voice, thinking that she is one as well.
"I highly doubt it." Ryun said dryly, wondering if these kids would be able to face the hardships coming to them in the future. "Now, please leave and come back either finding a good reason to get this guy here, to train you or come back here to eat. Not all of us have that much free time."
Of course, Ryun didn't have to say anything about the free time when we could use the Super God Gene universe to give us more time instead. However, none of us have gone back to that universe for an entire month now. Since we don't really need to go there at the moment and had things to do here in the RWBY universe.
"Come on guys, let's leave before we cause any problem for them. We can come back after coming up with a good reason to get him to train us." Pyrrha quickly lead everyone out of the building. As Pyrrha can sense some hostile intent coming from the Kitchen and she rather not face that lady, who looks like she beat and even kill her if that lady gets serious.
The rest of team RWBY and JNPR look like they wanted to argue, but the way Ryun is staring at them are starting to take in effect once more, causing them to give up for now and follow Pyrrha out the building, not before saying their farewells.
"Are you going to actually train them?" Yuri asks me, as she came out of the Kitchen finally and have a frown on her face. "Because Baam was one thing, but having to train those bunches would make things more difficult for us."
"Don't worry. I won't, because, like Ryun said. I can't teach someone that's not a natural self-learning genius or someone that would have the determination of hard working to continue doing what I taught for years, that may or may not give what they wanted in the first place." I said to Yuri, rejecting the idea of teaching those Beacon's students.
Baam is a natural self-learning genius, who easily analyze almost all the moves I could offer and recreate it into his own version. Weaker, but still something for Baam to use back in the Tower of God universe without the help of Yuri and Ryun. No clue if he will reach the end or not.
"Good, now get ready. I see some customers coming in our way." Yuri said to me, as she looks through the glass windows, where there are some regular customers coming in soon.
A few hours later*
Just as the last customer left; I turn the sign over to close, but didn't bother to lock the front door as Yuri and Ryun just stand at the counter while waiting for our late night customer.
"Welcome. You know the rules. You break it, we'll break you." Ryun said with a cold smile, causing those aimed at, shiver in fright. "Now, get in before those security cameras outside catch you people."
"We will." One of the late customers said to Ryun in a fearful tone, as they and their friends come inside quietly.
All of them happen to be criminals, that found out this place serve even criminals and any outcast alike during night time, but with a few rules that need to be followed no matter what.
"Roman, you better have that money you owe me, or you're losing a limb or two!" Ryun growl at Roman, as he enters the Restaurant, then flinch at Ryun's threats.
"Lady Ryun, why you have to be so mean to me? It isn't I who ate all the ice creams!" Roman quickly defend himself before he actually loses a limb since he saw proof of Lady Ryun's threats coming true last week. The poor guy is never able to eat anything besides soft food through a straw, with no teeth left to chew.
"Don't care. It's your minion, partner, whatever, she under your responsibility. So you'll pay for her share since she places all of her bills on your tab." Ryun said without a hint of mercy in her eyes, causing Roman to pale a little, but made sure to play it cool.
"Even so, a gentleman like me need to be careful in this cruel world. It isn't easy to steal money from others than you think. If you're going big." Roman tries to play it off when he noticed the cold eyes aiming at him, causing him to cough in his right hand and quickly take out the [Lien] to Lady Ryun to pay for his tab.
Roman is a master thief, but he knows there are some people not to mess with and the people living in this Apartment Building is a good example of people not to mess with.
"AH!" Someone cried out, causing everyone to look in the direction where the sound came from and found one of their own on the ground, trying to get up, but some invisible force is stopping them from getting up.
Standing before them is me, with my left eye glowing a little due to [Wisdom of The Sage] activate and using the [Fundamental Force Manipulation: Gravity] on the criminal before my feet.
Sure, this could be added into the profile of these criminals building up on me and my family, but it isn't much and I have more skills to use if needed. And they still haven't seen the limit of how far I could use them.
"Anyone wants to search this guy, or should I just kill him?" I ask everyone in a bored tone of voice while keeping my killing intent hidden. No need to cause the whole neighborhood to wake up.
"What you guys waiting for? Do as he says! Or you want me to increase the price again for causing a problem again!" Yuri shouts at the criminals in a demanding voice. This got three criminals to rush over and thoroughly search the one I've pinned down with [Fundamental Force Manipulation: Gravity].
In just a few minutes, the three criminal found a few recording devices and a wallet with the Police ID in it.
"Well. Well. Well. We got a spy among us. I'm deeply shocked." Roman said to the hidden cop, who sweating badly now. Worry for his very life now, as all the criminals in the Restaurant glaring down at the cop.
Just before anyone or Roman can say anything else, the front door was open, causing everyone to look who just came in and turn out to be Esdeath, returning back from her extermination mission.
"What's going on here?" Esdeath demand in a cold tone, causing all the criminals and the cop to shiver at the tone of voice belong to Esdeath. Which is pretty much normal at this point, with Esdeath's [Aura] unlocked. Her killing aura is a lot denser and could cause people to die of a heart attack with enough time.
"We got us a spy here, Mistress Esdeath." Roman quickly stands as far away from Esdeath as possible while able to reply to Mistress Esdeath's question, in the hope she doesn't torture him for paying his tab late like last week.
Roman isn't scared enough to call other by some respectable titles, even to his new boss that could burn his ȧss like no tomorrow, but even she couldn't make him be completely afraid of her.
As for these people in this building; well, that's a whole different story. Roman learned the hard way that death can consider a blessing while living a curse. Yeah, he ended up getting tortured by Esdeath two weeks ago for doing something he regrets still and the only reason why he continues to show up here is that of the demands he has to follow if he wanted to live. One of them happen to come here once a week or else one of these monsters would hunt him down.
Yeah, Roman is many things, but stupid isn't one of them. He survived up to now with his wit and skills he earned through years of hardships.
Esdeath stares at the cop with cold eyes, "I see. Well, I guess I get to work on my [Torture Skills] again for tonight." This made the cop feel a chill going down their back.
"Ragna, be a dear, and take this...cop...to the 4th floor." Esdeath said to me before she went into the Kitchen to grab a drink to relax first before torturing the scared cop.
We pretty much use the Kitchen as a cover to use the [Inventory/Gate of Babylon].
"Got it." I replied back to my 1st wife, as I use [Nabong Needle Ryu] to paralysis them before releasing them from the [Fundamental Force Manipulation]'s effects. As I grab the back of their collar and drag them upstairs, to the 4th floor, which also belongs to Esdeath and is considered the Torture Floor.
The 2nd floor could technically belong to Ryun, as the entire floor is filled with books that make it into a mini library. As for the 3rd floor, well it used as cover to sleep in and sometimes used for sėx. Which Esdeath would demand for each night, with Yuri and Ryun supports.
"Help me! Please! I'll give you anything!" The cop cried to the criminals, which showed that even the cop knew how much of a bad situation he's in when it related to Esdeath. After seeing Esdeath, the cop knew he wouldn't come out of this without harm by morning. Be it physically or mentally, or both.
As if this was normal, all the criminals turn their eyes away and ignore the pleas coming from the cop. As all the criminals begin ordering their food from Ryun, then Yuri would get the food from the Kitchen. Since she can access the [Inventory], then she has the Kitchen duty cover until her hubby come back downstairs.
Yup, just another night at the Restaurant of The Unknown. Where in the morning, we serve food for the people, where they could be human or faunus and will be treated as an equal status. While at night, we serve the criminals and get something out of them besides their money.
