81 Chapter 73: Kick Names and Take Butts

Haruki landed on the ground, creating a large Crater that looked like a spider's web. Cracks formed in the ground. Signifying his huge boost in strength, after The Ars Magus changes his body structure, along with it the capability to wield the immense power he has obtained by devouring His enemies.

He tried punching towards the air, He went all out without using his aura. Even then the air still shook. Shockwaves emerged blowing away everything in sight, within 800 meters with just his punch alone.

He looked towards his fist, "Damn..." Gluttony suddenly chimed in.

[Hooh, You're probably stronger than my sinner in her peak state.]

Haruki raised his eyebrows, "When we fought, answer me truthfully... Did you let me kill you?"

[Hahahahaha, I was honestly planning on killing all of you when I detected that you killed one of the Grimm I spawned. The one Grimm I injected with my essence. Turns out it didn't evolve that much...

You see, I had a fallout with both Pride and Greed 500 years ago or something, We three had different plans for Humanity. So I fought them and I lost miserably.

I was weakened to the point that even if I regained my former strength I would still lose to them.

After all those years of roaming Remnant I just ate and ate. I didn't care what as long as I could satisfy my hunger, be it power, semblance, unique constitutions... Even knowledge, I have amassed a great deal of knowledge.

Then I saw you the Wielder of the Ars Magus, One of the 6 Keys, I was surprised to see it in this dimension. I was curious how it got here, so I wanted to test you, I never expected to be absorbed by the damn thing though... Gahahahahaha!!! I did fight you with everything I had. Whatever's left of it anyways.

But then I saw your memories, it all made sense... Being sent to this reality, That maybe me being stuck and absorbed into the Ars Magus, was the will of that man himself...]

Haruki tilted his head, "That man?"

[Forget it kid, We're both not strong enough to say his name, or even know his name...The more I explain the more it gets complicated, so for now... Focus on your mission or whatever.]

Then as Haruki pondered what Gluttony told him, That means he lacks strength to even face the sins... But he put it at the back of his mind, if he can't even beat Eris what's the point in facing the sins.

*Thump*

The two twins landed besides Haruki, Both of them didn't create a large crater or anything, They were light as a feather. Haruki was surprised, It must mean that the two had perfect control over their strength.

He smiled, at least he got additional strength in his army. He looked towards Kurenai, "Master, you do know creating a huge commotion like this would get us discovered right?"

"Huh? Why bother? It's not like anyone's here..." Haruki said as he looked around the forest. Yushu face palmed, "Ugh, Why am I stuck with this idiot? I seriously want to die..."

Kurenai laughed, "Hehehe I agree with Master! We could take them all on, so why bother!?"

Yushu clicked her tongue and proceeded to walk on the opposite direction. Haruki called out to her, "Hey Yushu! Wrong way!" Kurenai laughed at her sister and followed Haruki towards the sealed subway on the ruined city.

At the Entrance of The Ruined City Haruki detected multiple Grimm in the area. He looked towards the twins, "How about you two show me what you got?"

Kurenai grinned towards Haruki, "Yess!!!! Finally! Some action!" She immediately dashed towards the Grimm and swung her massive blade. A Red Arc swiped through the Grimm. She was still a few meters away from the swarm of Grimm when she swung her blade, but They were instantly bisected.

*Fwoosh*

The Grimm didn't disappear, but remained as corpses. Haruki pondered, 'So if they have the same effects with Warmonger... Then I could probably increase my strength at a much faster pace...'

Haruki summoned his void bats to go and devour the carcasses of their enemies. He looked towards the unmotivated Yushu, "Uhh, Yushu? Why aren't you doing anything?"

Yushu sighed, "What a pain... do I really have to?" Haruki nodded his head and smiled wryly. 'If you don't move I can't see your strength now can I?'

Yushu disappeared, she appeared next to the group of unsuspecting Grimm. Her scythe suddenly enlarged covering the Group. Then she pulled it towards her.

The Grimm were cut in half instantly, She had a reluctant face when she looked towards the dead enemies. "Ugh, disgusting... Why can't they just turn into nothing when they die..."

She snapped her fingers and pale blue flames covered their corpses, and they quickly disappeared. Before Haruki could tell her not to burn them, she has already appeared to another batch of Grimm.

"Fuck... This girl is more of a pain than expected..." Kurenai approached him while smiling. "My sister hates seeing corpses. So she immediately disposes of them."

Haruki shrugged, after they cleared out the place he quickly made way to the sealed subway. But before he opened the secret entrance, he handed two White fang masks towards the two. He also Gave them two jet black jackets, the very same jacket he was wearing.

The two looked at him dubiously, "You can't expect us to wear this now can you?" Kurenai said, Haruki wordlessly pushed the jackets towards them.Now the two girls look almost like him except for their skirts, shirt and Hairstyle.

He looked at the two and nodded his head, "Nice..." Yushu was secretly appreciating her Masters aesthetic. Although she liked her original jacket, wearing this long jacket once in a while is not so bad.

He opened the door and gleefully jumped down towards where Roman was screaming towards his subordinates.

*Thump*

He landed without a sound, learning from what Yushu just said. Yushu nodded pleased by her masters wit.

"Hey, Kept you waiting huh?"

Roman looked towards the direction of the voice. "What took you so long? Do you have any idea what it feels to be cooped up in this shithole? Hold on! I'll answer that for you, Fucking terrible!"

Haruki shrugged his shoulders, "I kinda overslept, you know... Puberty and stuff..."

Roman was slackjawed by his co-worker's answer. "You what?" Then he noticed two shadows behind Haruki. He smirked knowingly, "Oh, Does Neo know about your new posse?"

Haruki flinched on Roman's snide remark, "Uhh... No? Well they're a new hire so..." Roman gave him a shrug not caring about his excuses.

"Anyways we got to deliver these things pronto! Since you're here I'm going to show myself out. Whenever you're here plans tend to get a little... let's just say... messy." He started to usher the others to start up the train.

-------------------

Team RWBY was roaming around their immediate mission area. Ruby was trying to sneak about. She was crouched at the ground, occasionally peeking through covers while moving from point to point using her semblance.

Weiss was exasperatedly looking towards Ruby. She face palmed, "Uhh Ruby, you know you're leaving red petals when you use your semblance right?"

Yang was just silently laughing along as she was thinking about beating Haruki up as soon as she meets him. Blake on the other hand was just looking around. Taking in the sights of the strange beauty of the ruined city. It was covered in overgrowth. It was lifeless yet filled with life at the same time. Although one thing is bothering her, How come there's no Grimm in the area?

They have been looking around for almost an hour, but there was not a Grimm in sight. Weiss read the mission documents once more, "It seems there's an entrance near the subway."

They walked towards the subway and found an open door. Yang raised her eyebrows, "It can't be that easy now can it? What do you think Ruby?" Yang looked around and but her little sister was already gone, leaving a trail of petals on her Wake.

The three groaned and immediately rushed towards her direction. "Ruby wait for us!"

Ruby on the other Hand finally saw Roman Torchwick so she jumped from platform to platform and landed behind Him and Haruki.

"Halt! Evildoers, you shall be captured by me, The great Agent 255!!" She posed confidently.

"Ohh... for the love of..." Roman looked towards Haruki putting the blame on him, "This is clearly your fault Kaz! Damnit all! I should've went out earlier."

Haruki crossed his arms, "Well, if it isn't Little Red. What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?"

Ruby was about to speak whena Yang and Co. suddenly descended from the top of the subway entrance. Yang was clearly displeased with Haruki as she cracked her knuckles.

Ruby Smirked, "We're here to Kick Names ant Take Butts! And we're all out of bubblegum!"

Haruki face palmed, 'Ugh, she messed up her line...C'mon Ruby! We rehearsed this remember?' He thought to himself as he looked towards the girl who messed up such perfect opportunity.

Roman on the other hand was looking at them while his smile was twitching. "The strings of bad luck just won't end!! I'm out of here!"

"Where do you think you're going to, mister?"

Team RWBY readied their weapons, "Bad Guys will pay!" Ruby Shouted. She only got a chuckle from Roman.

"Well whatever Red, you see we're just trying to do our jobs. Just transport our weapons and bomb the City in the process."

Weiss opened her eyes wide, "What about the innocent people?"

Haruki shrugged his shoulders, "What about them?"

"That's Murder!! How low has the White Fang fallen to even consider harming innocent people!?" Blake screamed while looking at the White Fang Members

"For the love of the Two Gods... Grow up you lot. You're not Kids anymore. There is no such things as good guys or bad guys, there's just people going about their lives. That in the end it's the powerful who gets to decide the fate of the many..." Roman said as he twirled his cane.

The four Looked solemn. Ruby then answered seriously, "Then we'll show you how powerful we could get!"
