    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    "Good. Very good." The Spider was pleased with Emiya's progress, though he made no motion to take the bust of Solomon as King of Israel from him. "You will deliver that bust to the Mage King. To remind him that we are still friends and allies in all of this. It has been so very long since I have...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    "Well, what's your report on your missions." It was somewhat of a rhetorical question; the Spider had assets following Emiya throughout the Ninja World, keeping track on his progress. But he wanted to hear what the soon-to-be swordsmith had to say. Once you've told me everything we can move onto...
  3. NRP Botman

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    "Come, Emiya." It was nothing more than a small, meek whisper from the Spider's headquarters. "The Spider wishes to see you now." It was the same small human that had called in Hei earlier; an individual responsible for managing the Spider's teleportation network. But only with an invitation...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    "Good. I'm glad that you are a cooperative asset." He leaned back in his throne, his inhuman body stretching back somewhat. "Very good. Very good, indeed. A defector exists among Phetra's ranks. A lone soul that believes Irkalla, the Underworld, has turned into a place of evil manipulations...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    The Spider blinked twice, puzzled by the series of questions. "Well...yes. That's what it means when she disrupted the entire continent." It felt weird to have to state the obvious. But the other questions were even more bizarre. Other events seemingly unconnected that, even if they were...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    "I'm glad you decided to take my invitation." The words came from deeper in the chamber as Hei made his way through the teleporter. "I've always wanted my own champion. So useful." He snorted and laughed, leaning back in his chair as the Spider crossed his arms. "My resources are stretched thin...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    "You are to come next." The voice was silent, coming from a small head peeking out from behind a door where many others had disappeared down. It was Hei's turn to visit the infamous black market mastermind, the Spider. "Be respectful, but the Spider has been anticipating your arrival. He has a...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    The answer was simple, but so complex at the same time. "Weapons, tools, or artifacts? No. I know nothing of the sorts." Was it a lie? Yes. But it was not information that Alucard was entitled to, even in a meeting with the Spider. It was another's task to find these weapons, and one that only...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    The Spider took a moment to ponder his request, sitting back in his throne and pausing a moment while he scratched the bottom of his chin. "The undead scourge that occupied Tobusekai was commanded by the Voidlord Phetra. Someone far beyond your own capabilities." He laughed slightly before...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    The Spider burst out into laughter at Alucard's inquiry; "Bahahah. A real hero, this one." He motioned around the room, encouraging his soldiers, enforcers, and spies to join in on the commotion. As loyal followers they did just that. "Okay, okay. Enough. Your request is bizarre. What curse? We...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    Yet another guest in his chambers; never before had the Spider seen so many guests and visitors in such a short amount of time. As Alucard followed one of his best assassins into the chambers the colossal inhuman creature raised one of his many hands to just under his chin, scratching it. "And...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    Another steward of the Spider's came out, this time a young human woman. Though she hardly looked helpless, armed to the teeth with a variety of weapons and munitions. "You there..." She said firmly, pointing toward Alucard. "You know the fee. If you pay it, you can come with me." She turned...
  13. NRP Botman

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    The Spider laughed slightly, still leaning forward in his throne. "Without a contribution, you say? You'll make your contribution, in time. But first..." The Spider knew of Solomon; in fact, the two had been friends. Not the most likely of friends, but companions that worked together for some...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    The same flash of light that enveloped Strix just did Emiya, suddenly transporting him to the Spider's inner sanctum. "Welcome. My spies have told me much about you, including your connection to that former king." The words were managed with some degree of eagerness, as if the Spider had been...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    Another of the Spider's assistants emerged from the same portal chamber that Strix had entered and stood silently for a moment, observing who was left. He motioned to both Alucard and Emiya, and then gave his price. "For you - 15,000 Ryo." He said firmly, pointing at Alucard. "And for you...you...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    The Spider laughed at her words, enjoying her struggle and making no effort to hide it. Phetra was a crafty Voidlord, essentially turning Strix into her own slave without even so much as manipulating her soul or spirit. It was impressive, as always. Did the young witch know that her actions were...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    "Then they must pay the same fee you did. The Spider's wealth of knowledge comes at a cost."[/color] He motioned her again, clearly growing impatient having to wait to bring this Akatsuki candidate to the inner sanctum of the most powerful creature in Tobusekai. The two entered the building and...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    A single servant walked out from one of the many residences in Veskal's Exchange; hew ore militaristic garb, covered head to toe in black and red leather armor. It was one of the Spider's enforcers, a man who once served in the Freehold's infamous Black Ones special operations squad. He was now...

    Veskal's Exchange (237)

    "Send this young Strix a message. She may request an audience with me but..." He grinned, leaning forward down toward his messenger in his immense chair - built from nothing else but steel and the bones of those who dared oppose his iron grip rule of the Exchange. "These things come at a cost,"...
