The stench of this place always makes Mirabelle’s blood crawl up. It was a mix of sweat, blood, scandals and overall bad minded people. Never the less, she came back in order to attempt to have a meeting with the Spider, however with her being quite short on change, the Kage decided to play a little bit dirty to the ways of this place. Still on the outskirts of the territory, she didn’t want to be seen just yet as for she intended to do. She would first infuse her chakra once more into the existing air surrounding Veskal – allowing a calm and gentle breeze to pass over the lands. Once the breeze passed over, she started to get a sense of everyone within the vicinity of her sensory techniques scope. “Emiya’s here too…” she said thinking to herself as she looked at the direction near Spider’s business shop. Perhaps he finished whatever assignments had to do for the rather suspect information broker. She looked at a watch like device on her wrist, as she turned the dial in order to adjust her appearance. Fading in and out like static, she finally settled for the disguise she wanted to achieve as she didn’t wish to be caught as the Kage of Tsumigakure doing this little misbehavior of hers. “Alright let’s begin…” she said, as she summoned her bow from her palm seal into her left hand and t

ook a stance.

Utilizing her keen sense that is connected to the winds blowing, she started to track a group of merchants not too far leaving the Veskal. “About…three of them, heading east bound…” she said turning her body in order to align better. She used the winds themselves as a way to measure how fast and where to aim from in order to make this shot as accurate as possible. Once she confirmed her angles, she wouldn’t waste any more time as she formed to quick hand seals. As the final seal is made, she gripped one of the arrows in her quiver – as she started to take aim. One eye closed, she charged her lightning chakra into the arrow, causing red and purple sparks of electricity to course through the weapon. Knocking the arrow to the bow, she pulled the bow string back as fair as she could and with precise aim, she released the arrow into the skies above. The arrow in question curved into the sky; at which once it reached its max altitude, the lightning chakra from it would swiftly cause the arrow to break, but as it did the fragments all molded in sort of copies of the original bow, immediately falling back down towards the earth below.

“Move your asses! I aint paying ya’ll to be slackers!” the main merchant yelled at the other two, but before they can retaliate – a bombardment of arrows came from the skies, rapidly exploding onto the enemies. “What the ****?!” the head merchant said, just barely avoiding the blast zone. Mirabelle sucked her teeth, having just been off by such a small amount yet it was still a miscalculation on her behalf. The merchant drew his cutlass and started looking around for the source of the assault, however the Hayabusa princess already was on the move. As she rushed over towards him, she would collapse her bow back into her palm seal and immediately make two hand seals. This in turn caused several weapons to start to form and spiral around her, namely three different swords to which she grabbed two of them while launching the other four at him. Sadly the merchant was a bit more agile than an anticipated, allowing him to dodge towards his left side in order to avoid being struck by them. “Not bad…” she said underneath her breath as she quickly rushed at him now. After a quick exchange of blows with their swords, Mirabelle would lean down into a leg sweep, dropping the merchant onto the ground.

As he tried to get up, the girl was much faster than he was and caught him. One of the sword was lanced into his shirt, causing him to be stuck to the ground while she mounted him – with the other in hand prepared to stab him. “Please…just take what you want…just let me go…” he begged her. Mirabelle smirked, simply reaching into his pocket and robbing him of all his ryou. “Tch only this?” she though to herself, realizing this was a waste of time. She simply took the sword and drove the sword into his heart. She covered his mouth; muffling his screams but in truth the reason for this assassination wasn’t only for the money, she got off him and reached into her pouch to cross the name of the man from the bingo book. He was wanted for several crimes across Tobusekai, so finally finding him here along with some tip offs from others speaking of him being there was all that was needed. Once she was done, she walked into Veskals, walking into the lair where many others seemed to be waiting for Spider. There was the red haired hero himself waiting in solitude. Mirabelle simply walked up to Emiya and with a smile she sat down next to Emiya, trying her best to hide her voice. “Well hello there, come here often?” she asked, almost finding it hard not to burst into laughter.

(Kougou Doragon Yumi ) Empress Dragon Bow
Type: Weapon
Rank: S
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: N/A
Damage: N/A
Description: The Empress Dragon bow, a powerful bow that was handcrafted by Mirabelle Hayabusa. Her desire to create a weapon that suites her combat prowess as an archer allowed her to create this weapon. Through the assistance of her mentor, Paradox, a very cryptic weapons master – she was able to finally establish and create a bow that surpassed any of her previous weaponry. The bow itself is rather basic in design – being a sleek black coloration,having a somewhat glass like finish to it . The quiver associated with the bow rests on her hip usually but can be used in any fashion she desired such as on her back. The bow’s design is strong enough to resist one S rank attack or two A ranks before shattering to another technique afterwards. The bow itself is highly focused with its design of combining fuinjutsu and archery into one. These can be found below, with some of it revolving the bow itself and the quiver tied in.

Empress Dragon’s Armament (N/A) – Considered the most basic ability of the bow, is passive in nature and doesn’t require a move slot. Located on the bow and within the quiver are two seals, modified version of the “Lightning Blade Creation Seal”. Upon the user taking an arrow out from the quiver, it is immediately replaced with another in order to keep the user’s arsenal of arrows continuously filled. This allows the user to summon forth any kind of arrow she has access towards, though the quiver itself utilizes unique arrows as well. These unique arrows are adaptive by nature – meaning that they are capable of transforming into any kind of arrow the user might need in combat. This includes special arrows for custom fighting styles etc those allowing for the user to complete have access to their arsenal to the fullest capacity. This also extends to techniques that create chakra based arrows, causing adaptive arrows to absorb the chakra nature of the user and transforming into the needed arrow while the bow itself acts as the chakra bow if any is needed to be formed. The other seal is located on the bow itself, allowing the user to seal and unseal the bow into the palm if needed or to put away when not in use or to avoid someone trying to steal it. This doesn’t cost a move as well, though most at least be within ten meters of the weapon to do so.

Empress Dragon’s Enhancement Fang (N/A) – The secondary and final passive of the bow, located on the golden accents of the bow. This is an empowerment, with a seal that is passively activated each time the user utilizes a technique or skill from the bow. The seal passively siphons an additional amount of chakra from the user (+10) in order to enhance the strength of the bow and arrow. This acts as a means to increase the damage of these techniques by +1 rank or +20 DMG for techniques S rank and above in power.

Empress Dragon’s Comet (D – S) – The first active ability of the bow, in which utilizes a seal marked “energize”. Upon preparing to fire an arrow, the user can activate this seal – which causes an elemental nature or other nature transformation the user has access towards to be released. The seal then infuses the bow with said elemental nature, creating a coating around it. Once the arrow is released it soars through the skies at the intended target. The coating causes the arrow to gain the elemental properties of the chosen nature, that when striking them will react in a way the element normally does (such as fire burning the opponent, lightning shocking the opponent) etc. This can also be applied to Custom Elements or Advanced Elements. D to B rank can be used any amount of times per battle, while A rank can only be used thrice and S rank twice. A rank causes this technique to go on cooldown for two turns before utilizing it again while S rank causes this same cooldown but for three turns instead. Emperor Dragon’s Empowerment damage increase doesn’t apply to this ability. These arrows are fired up to long range, with the coatings being applied at a short range.

Empress Dragon’s Divine Protection (A) - The second active ability of the bow, the user is capable of activating a seal marked as “protection ” on the bow . By activating the seal, a spherical barrier of chakra will immediately form around the user (up to short range). This barrier is laced with sealing scrip all around it, that once foreign chakra comes into contact with it – the barrier forcefully seals the technique into the seal. Once this is done, the barrier collapses afterwards. This ability can only seal chakra/techniques up to A rank (30 Chakra) but cannot be used on living creatures unless it’s a chakra made familiar. Can only be used thrice per battle, with a cool down of three turns.

(Raiton: Kossetsu Risō) Lightning Release: Fractured Ideals
Type: Supplementary/ Offensive
Rank: A-Rank
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description: The user starts by performing a sequence of two Handseals, Snake → Horse gathering a large quantity of Lightning Release Chakra, and infusing it into a projectile, such as a bolt for a crossbow. As they infuse their Chakra into the projectile, they become completely shrouded in a heavy aura of reddish-purple lightning. The user then takes aim, either into the air, or at a target before them, depending on how they wish to utilize this Jutsu, as there are two different, but conceptually identical usages for this Jutsu.

The first is for enemies that generally have some semblance of distance from the user. By aiming into the air, the user then fires their projectile into the air in an arc, aiming to hit the target on the descent of their projectile's arc. Once the projectile reaches a certain distance from the user, Mid-Range or beyond, the Chakra infused into the projectile "activates", forcefully shattering the fired projectile into numerous pieces, all carrying their own equivalent portion of the projectiles Chakra. Each fragment of the projectile then instinctively moulds the Chakra into the form of the original projectile, effectively creating a barrage of dozens of lightning-based projectiles formed from the scattered remnants of the original projectile. As the barrage of Chakra projectiles descends upon the target, the effect for each individual projectile is equivalent to that of an explosive tag, as when they hit the ground, surface, object, target, etc, they release the Chakra constituting the form of the Chakra projectiles in the form of of a concussive blast (Roughly 2m radius around the point of impact), individually dealing small amounts of impact-based, kinetic damage to the target which combines to create one, singular explosion, engulfing the surrounding area (Roughly 15m radius around the target).

The second application is similar to a certain degree, but is utilized for close quarters engagements, allowing range/ projectile fighters, who are generally susceptible to attacks in close range, due to their weapons being more inclined towards distant targets, to defend themselves. Instead of aiming into the air/ at the sky, the user aims directly at their target, and fires. Upon being loosed, the Lightning Release Chakra contained within the projectile automatically initiates both the fragmentation and shaping aspects of this technique, causing the lightning projectiles to be shot off in a cone towards the target direction. Due to not having travelled as far, or gained as much speed or force due to the descending arc found in the former usage, this usage lacks any of the concussive force found in it, and instead, the projectiles pierce through the target, shredding and embedding themselves within the their body. Once the projectiles have embedded themselves within a target, after 1 turn, the Lightning Release that constitutes the projectiles themselves dissipates, leaving behind open wounds within living targets, or cavities in solid surfaces they plant themselves within, potentially leaving fresh lacerations in their place.

Note: Can be used a max of 3 times per battle, and the user must wait 2 turns between each usage.
Note: Can only be taught by Iᴍᴘᴇяғᴇᴄᴛ.

(Fuuinjutsu: Fantomu ken o hauringu) - Sealing Technique: Howling Phantom Swords
Type: Offensive/Defensive/Supplemental
Rank: A Rank
Range: Short
Chakra: 30 (-10 per weapon)
Damage: 60
Description: The user after placing a unique version of the lightning blade creation seal on his body. Will perform two handseals before clapping his hands. Activating a powerful sealing jutsu on his body that allows him to summon a grand armory of weapons from his body at any point. Once activated the sealing technique remains able to summon and replace destroyed weapons from the users body. The weapons summoned can be hugely varied basic weapons of the users choice and when summoned will hover around his body within a 5 meter radius being controlled by his hand gestures in a similar fashion to the floating ninja tools jutsu. These weapons carry a static damage property of D rank damage each and the user is capable of having up to six weapons summoned at any one time. If destroyed another weapon can be summoned in it's place, upon summoning the weapons initially appear somewhat ethereal before forming completely, while this is only momentary it prevents the weapons just popping up in mid air with no forewarning. Essentially this jutsu gives the user a unique ability to have weapons readily available to him at any point. This jutsu is the cornerstone of the phantom swords techniques. These weapons are formed from raw chakra focused in a similar fashion to the rasengan making them capable of competing with elemental jutsu equally when released they are raw chakra which the user focuses causing the slight delay.

Notes:
-Once activated remains active until the battle ends-
-Summoning additional swords costs a move slot, but the user can summon between 1-6 swords for a single move slot depending on his needs-
-Must be mentioned in the users biography-
-Each individual blade is capable of taking D rank damage before breaking.
-Can only be taught by ReXii-

End of mission.

"My apologies Spider, I can't help but feel as though the events as of late are connected in some way. I feel as though I only have pieces to an incomplete puzzle. I was hoping for more insight and thought it best to layout the pieces I've gathered before you. I was hopeful that someone of your caliber could make since of them. Perhaps they are unrelated after all."

Hei couldn't help but feel suspicious of the Spider, it was almost as if he wasn't willing to share information even if he had it. His goal was clearly to focus on this Voidlord. Nothing wrong with that, if she was the one behind the undead uprising then she anything that can be done to disrupt her will be best for the immediate future.

"I'm willing to help loosen the grip of this "Queen of the Dead" over her domain. What's the plan?"

"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 rather than one of sacred duty - a responsibility to the souls that have passed to the afterlife. Hei, I know only rumors of where the entrance to the Underworld is. Somewhere in the West. Rumor has it that it is near the Village Hidden in Sin. A physical entrance constructed by Enlil himself on the eve of his invasion into Nergal's domain, with his brother Marduk. But once you have, seek out Malthus, a disciple of the Twin Fates, somewhere within the Necropolis." With his mission issued the Spider waved his hand, having had enough of speaking with Hei.

Investigate Spider and Veskal's Exchange ( B rank )​

---

Madara arrived at the location he seen in Vayne's memories, the hideout and base of operations of this "Spider" he was meeting with. Madara's eyes narrowed as he looked around the decrepit buildings; it appeared as if care had long left the area as well as order, given the way the terrain and buildings looked with the faint smell of blood and iron tainting the air itself. The Uchiha moved forward, heading towards the building in front of him, his Sharingan activated. Akujin likewise looks around the field as his left hand grips the handle of High Heaven in it's sheath beside his left leg as the duo moved.

There was already a group of people waiting around, a peculiar group standing attentively around: an elderly, wrinkled man with a weird mohawk and what appeared to be black bandages covering his eyes stood, or rather hunched, over talking to a strange person in crimson red and an even stranger top hat of the same hue, donning an orangish tinted pair of glasses. Another figured stood by, a male teenager with brown hair donning a black tight attire. Akujin's already notably short patience seemed to be running short again as Madara noted the thoughts he had, having to tell him that they were here for a reason first. The Tengu untensed slightly at the communication but remained as vigilant as ever, standing on edge in case he was needed.

Madara's own thoughts were fixated on the memories and visions he seen within the Nara's mind about the Undead and the items he was attempting to gather in preparation for them. He had his own suspicions on what it all meant but he needed to be certain of more things first. And because of that, he needed to know..

"Where is this 'Spider'?" He asked the group of people standing around, his arms folded in front of him as he spoke.

Once the projectiles have embedded themselves within a target, after 1 turn, the Lightning Release that constitutes the projectiles themselves dissipates, leaving behind open wounds within living targets, or cavities in solid surfaces they plant themselves within, potentially leaving fresh lacerations in their place.

Note: Can be used a max of 3 times per battle, and the user must wait 2 turns between each usage.
Note: Can only be taught by Iᴍᴘᴇяғᴇᴄᴛ.

The weapons summoned can be hugely varied basic weapons of the users choice and when summoned will hover around his body within a 5 meter radius being controlled by his hand gestures in a similar fashion to the floating ninja tools jutsu. These weapons carry a static damage property of D rank damage each and the user is capable of having up to six weapons summoned at any one time.

-Can only be taught by ReXii-

End of mission.

As his mind wandered, Emiya felt a distant, yet powerful trembling in the ground, as though something had exploded not too far from Veskals. Though he wanted to investigate in case anyone was hurt, he also didn't want to miss the Spider's associate's next surfacing, so he remained in place. It would seem that, once again, Spider's business came before his own morals, but it was in service to a greater good, so that had to mean something.

Not too long after the explosion that caught his attention, a familiar, if oddly and sloppily disguised voice addressed him. Without even looking, the cadence of the words undoubtedly belonged to Mira, but she was intentionally changing the pitch. Was this a joke? Without even looking, he responded as she sat down next to him.

"That's the best you've got? Let me guess, that earlier disturbance was you saying 'hey' to another friend, Mira?
Got to say, I'm disappointed."​

As he turned to face her, he noted the wildly different appearance and attire, causing a look of confusion, then an apology.

"Shoot, sorry. Thought you were someone else. Um... Yeah I do come here often, increasingly these days...
Can I help you with something?"​

Start of Mission Element:

Investigate Spider and Veskal's Exchange ( B rank )​

---

Madara arrived at the location he seen in Vayne's memories, the hideout and base of operations of this "Spider" he was meeting with. Madara's eyes narrowed as he looked around the decrepit buildings; it appeared as if care had long left the area as well as order, given the way the terrain and buildings looked with the faint smell of blood and iron tainting the air itself. The Uchiha moved forward, heading towards the building in front of him, his Sharingan activated. Akujin likewise looks around the field as his left hand grips the handle of High Heaven in it's sheath beside his left leg as the duo moved.

There was already a group of people waiting around, a peculiar group standing attentively around: an elderly, wrinkled man with a weird mohawk and what appeared to be black bandages covering his eyes stood, or rather hunched, over talking to a strange person in crimson red and an even stranger top hat of the same hue, donning an orangish tinted pair of glasses. Another figured stood by, a male teenager with brown hair donning a black tight attire. Akujin's already notably short patience seemed to be running short again as Madara noted the thoughts he had, having to tell him that they were here for a reason first. The Tengu untensed slightly at the communication but remained as vigilant as ever, standing on edge in case he was needed.

Madara's own thoughts were fixated on the memories and visions he seen within the Nara's mind about the Undead and the items he was attempting to gather in preparation for them. He had his own suspicions on what it all meant but he needed to be certain of more things first. And because of that, he needed to know..

"Where is this 'Spider'?" He asked the group of people standing around, his arms folded in front of him as he spoke.

As he began to question his earlier assumption that this was Mira, another figure entered the street, looking for Spider. Black hair, and red, feudal style armor gave the figure an air of authority, but the most interesting thing about him was most certainly his even more dramatic companion, dressed in full Tengu kabuki gear. It would seem as though Veskals was a hotspot for colorful individuals of all backgrounds, with more than a few of the market's regular clientele retreating with all these new arrivals. Since the man was only really asking for information, and everyone else seemed rather tight-lipped about the specifics, Emiya spoke up, projecting his voice far enough for Madara to hear;

"The eight legged guy's behind one of those doors, but he's got the place wired up with Seals and Barriers.
You aren't getting in unless you make a 'generous' donation to his operation, or you're lucky enough to be invited.
His services aren't cheap, and no grouping up either. One person per donation or invite, so good luck."​

Mirabelle’s reaction to Emiya was an amused chuckle. “You had it right the first time, I am you're culprit” she said as she dispelled the disguise to reveal herself. She talking normally; as she gave a rather wide grin; but alas time for her little prank to die quickly. However before she can continue speaking, she noticed someone approaching into the building and Emiya was the first to address the man. The first thing Mirabelle noticed however was his eyes, they simply cannot be ignored. “The Sharingan…” she said to herself mentally, almost immediately she snapped out of her daze as she gave a smile to the new comer. “Speaking of the Spider, Emiya, I have a request if you don’t mind…” she said looking over to where the portal would be. “I too would like to have a word with the man, there’s something I need to know…but I’m a bit loose on change, and honestly rather not tamper with my official funds so I had to scavenge it on my own while out here. Mind helping a friend out?” she said asked, if he denied then such is life honestly. However, she was wary of the Uchiha, it’s not often they are seen here in the eastern continent but it doesn’t surprise her with some of the ones she encountered in the past. However, the aura of this one, he was strong. “Care for a drink, Mr. Uchiha?” she asked him nicely, small talk is nice while we waited for our own turns to speak to spider.

Alucard listened to Talbots response. He was asking about specific clan goals, which Alucard was going to come at later anyway even if not asked about it. He would smile at the remarks about chaos, a volatile personality it would seem. He was eager to see it first handed. He wasn't afraid of his powers or using them either it would seem, good, a true and genuine comrade that Alucard could feel safe to trust when it would come to the harshest moments of life - Death. He looked at the bugs that then gathered, filled with chakra. They differed from eachother, which they would, as Talbot would tell they were from different species and the fact that he was on the process of making a special breed of chakra bugs sounded quite interesting. He was curious about it, and frankly having spoken too much about himself and his clan it would only break the ice a little further if he asked about it. After answering the questions of course.

Right now there's a disturbance in Tobusekai. I'm sure you've seen it - dark forces have gathered on a single purpose which seems to be to wipe out humanity from this continent. If i know dark powers, they won't stop here either even if they succeed. No, they will spread. Right now i am able to give you three directions you can take. I don't mind whichever it is as i see all three equally important. The first one would be to stay here in Tobusekai and follow the events that are happening here. The undead are still on the march even after large efforts of slowing them down. I just left a meeting with a know-it-all and was informed that there are individuals here that calls themselves Voidlords. Apparently the dead walking is the work of one of those named Phetra. The other option for you is to go to our lands in the Ligthtning mountains and check on our people and make sure they are okey - fortify our fortresses, develop your research etc. The third option would be our conquest of expansion. Currently we have lands only there, in the Lands of lightning. You're free to gather resources and claim landmarks surrounding our own. Be careful that you do not claim landmarks belong to other clans though, currently i don't want a war.

He then paused for a second before continuing on with his questions about Talbot.

Chaos is a catalyst that i find, exquisite. I've been in it's grasp for some time, the unpredictableness of it makes you appreciate your life more than ever. It's not sustainable for a long time though, but is an excellent training ground mentality. Chaos can, indeed, occur at any time. Dealing with the unpredictable is key to sustain your life. Now, tell me a bit about this breeding of bugs. Is it a complicated development? What goes into it, are the bugs sentient or do you control them with your chakra? I'm curious.

Talbot listened patiently to Alucard, spacing out a little bit at the approach of a man with long black hair and his companion made their way through the place asking about a person by the name of 'Spider', before returning his attention to the matter at hand. An information dump about dark forces that planned to wipe out humanity that must be stopped or something. Sounded rather interesting to Talbot if he was to be honest. These 'Voidlords' could prove to bring some entertaining chaos to the region, especially since one of them was the apparent cause of the mass undead that had been walking about the world. Next was something to do with checking in with the people in the regions that fell under the Hellsing Org's dominion, tempting to have access to developing his research though and then a mention about expanding the dominion itself to unoccupied landmarks.

The topic then went onto more about the philosophy behind chaos and it was interesting to hear from slightly different perspective. With a follow up of a not-so-subtle topic change to his insects and research plans. Which Talbot was hesitant to give all the details but as he was to work with Alucard from here on out he would give the man the benefit of the doubt and share a portion of his information.

"All very interesting choices I might say. If anything I would appreciate the chance to further work on my research and development projects, so I would say that going to make sure the current landmarks that fall under our banner are all in order would give me some opportunity to do some field testing whilst being out and about, if that suits you that is."

Pausing to take a quick drink again before responding to the more personal question. "Well, as they are living creatures, they inherently hold a level of sentience. But as it is a symbiotic relationship between us, they will feed on my chakra whilst living under my skin — as a sort surrogate hive if you will. They get protection and a place to be safe and in return, they allow us to use them for special techniques, so there is an element of dictation by us to them. As with any kind of breeding program, there can be a complicated method in which to try and apply the practice of genetics and selective breeding, in order to make certain traits more enhanced or pronounced. It takes time and patience, especially if your trying to create an entirely new breed to introduce into the network. Which is where I am currently. I have multiple specimens in testing and waiting to see what the result will be."

Alucard applied a familiar smile on his face as Talbot seemed to be interested in doing his research and fortify the landmarks of the lightning mountain.

It suits me very well, i need you to be confident with your choices too and i am glad you see the opportunity to do two important things at the same time. Yes, our landmarks needs a checkup. I don't know the last time anyone from Rising Cloud visited them all and checked their status. During these few months i've been on this continent i fear evil has spread far.

Alucard then listened to Talbots explanation of the chakra bugs that he had mastered. It sounded rather fascinating, the synergy between the host and the beetles seemed rather intimidate. It reminded him slightly about the four souls he had harvested using his Chimera technique to awaken their powers within one body.

You have my full trust Talbot - i'm sure you'll discover the world is big and there's always something under every rock that could take your attention. Now, unless you have any further questions about me i need to be off as i have other new ones to the clan i need to introduce. Your travels are your own, but i trust to see you in our lightning mountains again some day in the near future.

"I have no further questions besides if there will be a meet up at some point to introduce everyone to everyone else. Otherwise that will be all, thank you."

Talbot gets up from the make shift chair, bowing in parting as he made his way to leave, before quickly recalling something and turns back to address it to Alucard "Oh by the way, as we were speaking, a man that held an authority about him was also looking for this 'Spider' character. He seemed dangerous."

Turning, Talbot would make his way out of the area and proceed in a journey to the Land of lightning.

Alucard turned his coat around, completely ignoring all the other chakra signatures in the vicinity and headed south.

Before he had more time to dwell on it, the young man would then turn to him and speak to him about the Spider, giving him details.

"Donation? Ha, laughable. What is it that he does here anyway? There seems to be a constant flow of people here and I saw something regarding surgeries but for what? What brings you and others to this wretched place?"

As he spoke, he watched the man curiously, unable to remember where he knew the man's appearance from. He looked familiar to him but he can't recall where. Before he could ponder if more, the woman beside the man spoke up.

As she spoke niceties to him, Madara noticed the woman and looked more curiously at her as he recalled the conversation between the two. It was then that he began to piece things together - the flood of memories that weren't his own came to the forefront, Vayne's memories of his village and the conversations between them and others sprang to mind.

"You...Mirabelle of Tsumigakure... I recently encountered a villager from your lands. You would do well to keep a leash on them before you have more troubles than you can afford on your hands," Madara said, smirking slightly as he spoke and walked closer to the duo with Akujin near him. "Ask Vayne, he will let you know what I mean. As for that drink, I'll have to decline as I'm here seeking information regarding -"

Madara suddenly paused, his thoughts permeated by the sudden realization of where he knew the man from. He had seen images of him across different taverns as he traveled in regards to the God Child he heard about from Susabi.

"..this Spider and... the God Child. He was seen with you - where is he now?"

Mirabelle’s hospitality was denied, hearing the man only seeks information. Mirabelle was silent at first, observing and soaking in all the information but before Shirou could utter a word, she spoke up for a moment. “Haha, I don’t know what Vayne did but Ill see to it that it doesn’t happen again” Mirabelle said, a farce. Judging by his statements, it seemed one of her councilmen was defeated at the ends of this man. She remembered the conversation back at the Kage Palace, Vayne was heading to somewhere near the land of fire. She needed to speak with him, but this only meant one thing. This one was dangerous, but hearing her villager was attacked didn’t settled well in her mind. “Oh well, seems you too would like to have a chat, I’ll step aside for a moment” she said leaving Shirou’s side but not too far. Instead, she was ordering some drinks up for the red head and herself, her eyes amber in frustration. “You’re gonna get what's coming to you some other time…Uchiha…” she said mentally, if her suspicions are correct. She turned around, her eyes blue once more as she brings one cup for Shirou and one for herself. She spoke one last time to the Uchiha, before completely turning her attention to her cup. “Well you seem to know quite abit about us, but yet you haven’t even given a name. Please, introduce yourself, I’d be so much at ease knowing who I am speaking with” she lied. She only wanted a name to keep record of for future notice.

Fooled once again by Mira, Emiya just gave another sigh he seemed to have reserved just for her. Her trickery knew no bounds, and was only matched by the avarice it took to request funds from a Hero of Justice who sought no payment for his work. Thankfully said chivalrous tendencies made it more likely for the answer to be a positive, though he had his own concerns regarding funds.

"I might, but it depends on how much you need, and whether or not the Spider'll give me another free pass this time."​

There was a certain worry in his tone, though Emiya was sure he'd be given another invitation. He was however still under contract, and it wouldn't technically end until he'd made his "delivery". Having a mercenary pay to complete one's job wasn't proper etiquette, especially when the object in question currently resided within an entirely different dimension.

The figure with dark hair, and harsh features chuckled at the idea of being made to pay to see the Spider, though as he followed that up by admitting he didn't know what the merchant did, it was a natural response to being told there was a toll. Waving his hand nonchalantly, Emiya gave a basic rundown based on his own experience with the shady merchant.

"Among other things, he's a shady merchant who deals in, I suspect illegal, cybernetic augmentations, and more specifically Spider himself is a well informed information broker. He's not omniscient, but he's got enough informants throughout the world to keep him up to date with most of the comings and goings of the world. He's also pretty knowledgeable about specific events, and players. Like the one responsible for releasing all the undead on Last Bastion, and eventually the rest of this continent."​

As Madara returned his attention to Mira, Emiya believed the man finished with his inquiries until Enkidu was mentioned, at which point he gave the man a warning glare.

"He's safe. That's all that matters."​

It appeared as though the events on Kythira, and Emiya's brief, flailing struggle against the Voidlord Demetrias hadn't become public knowledge, which was probably for the best. Considering the only people aware of the event were Emiya himself, Mira, Merlin and Solomon, as well as the Spider and those who informed him, it would have been easy to figure out who let the cat out of the bag. And while his tone was warning, along with his glare, Emiya remained seated, not wishing to escalate tensions. A question was asked, and an answer was given. It may not have been the one Madara wished, but it's all Emiya would budge when it concerned Enkidu.

Having a mercenary pay to complete one's job wasn't proper etiquette, especially when the object in question currently resided within an entirely different dimension.
The figure with dark hair, and harsh features chuckled at the idea of being made to pay to see the Spider, though as he followed that up by admitting he didn't know what the merchant did, it was a natural response to being told there was a toll. Waving his hand nonchalantly, Emiya gave a basic rundown based on his own experience with the shady merchant.

"Among other things, he's a shady merchant who deals in, I suspect illegal, cybernetic augmentations, and more specifically Spider himself is a well informed information broker. He's not omniscient, but he's got enough informants throughout the world to keep him up to date with most of the comings and goings of the world. He's also pretty knowledgeable about specific events, and players. Like the one responsible for releasing all the undead on Last Bastion, and eventually the rest of this continent."​

As Madara returned his attention to Mira, Emiya believed the man finished with his inquiries until Enkidu was mentioned, at which point he gave the man a warning glare.

"He's safe. That's all that matters."​

It appeared as though the events on Kythira, and Emiya's brief, flailing struggle against the Voidlord Demetrias hadn't become public knowledge, which was probably for the best. Considering the only people aware of the event were Emiya himself, Mira, Merlin and Solomon, as well as the Spider and those who informed him, it would have been easy to figure out who let the cat out of the bag. And while his tone was warning, along with his glare, Emiya remained seated, not wishing to escalate tensions. A question was asked, and an answer was given. It may not have been the one Madara wished, but it's all Emiya would budge when it concerned Enkidu.

Madara listened to the woman as she laughed and apologized for her villager's actions, an apology Madara didn't seek but one he didn't turn down. As a fellow Kage, he understood the need for diplomacy, whether he wished to enact it or not. A rather unpleasant but crucial aspect of his personality was of the nature that naturally urged him to not take the apology as sincere - there was too little information on her end to even know if Vayne was in the wrong or not. A shinobi never falls back on their principles or disregards their fellow man, these were things he grew up on during the time before villages; perhaps this was why he was with an untrusting disposition most of the time. The ninja of this era moved different. She offered a chance for Madara to speak to the man alone though not without asking a question of her own as she walked away.

“Well you seem to know quite abit about us, but yet you haven’t even given a name. Please, introduce yourself, I’d be so much at ease knowing who I am speaking with”

It's not uncommon to ask one their name, though Madara knew the troubles of doing so; you never knew when war might be brewing and a declaration of the clan or village you are aligned with could be the fire that causes it all to boil over.

"I am but a relic of the past, an ancestor of the Land of Fire. Be at ease knowing no harm was done to you here - that alone should help you sleep tonight."

Turning his attention back towards the man in front is him, Madara hadn't let the curt response to his questions regarding the God child go unnoticed. He had detailed who this Spider was, his purpose and even what he offered in some detail but when the child was mentioned, his very tone shifted and the once talkative teen became tight-lipped. Madara sensed a bond between the two, was he in some servitude with this God? Could he be working with Imeroth or the other Gods he mentioned? Though Madara had earlier began connecting the dots, there was still much more he needed to know about.

"Perhaps to you, but his existence and appearance is of great importance to this world's future and safety. I have reason to believe he may be in danger; for his sake, I need to know more about what happened with him. If not his location, more of what transpired during your travels."

As Madara spoke, his thoughts attempted to reach out to Imeroth and contact him, requesting an audience soon. He knew the Voice was ever watching and listening and likely tuned in to this very conversation though he knew it would do little good. He hadn't heard from his since he was given the staff and given his first task. As he thought of the staff, he moved his hand briefly and it twirled into existence before just as quickly returning to its seal.

The Uchiha was being dodgy about his name, but his eyes alone tell a lot. He deemed himself a relic of the past, implying he’s old of some sorts? Honestly who knows what the heck he meant’ truth be told but it mattered little right now. However, he also mentioned that Mirabelle would at ease knowing she was basically at his mercy. Her eye twitched for a moment; indicating her irritating with him steadily growing but she kept her cool, as much as she can at least. She took a swig at the cup of sake, trying to utilize it escape from her annoyances but all she can muster up in response initially was a mere silly remark. “No need to be feisty” she said smiling; yet another play of her theatrical side. She remained idle at Emiya’s side, listening to the two of them exchange words about the god child, though she had her suspicions. His interest in Enkidu declared a red flag and quite honestly, it was solidified when he summoned what appeared to be a staff for a brief moment and it disappearing right afterwards. Mirabelle barely caught a glimpse of it but she decided to mimic his own little trick. “Cute trick, I can do that too! *hiccup*” she said as she opened the seal on her palm to summon her bow into her palm but immediately reseal it back. “Haha, you’re turn Emiya-kun!” she said, pretending to be somewhat drunk, it was her attempt to cool the mood down or at least divert the Uchiha’s attention away from Emiya and his questions.

“Ya really know cool stuff, Mr. Uchiha haha!” she said, laughing a bit. Things weren’t looking good, it was clear Emiya didn’t want to share the information and with Spider’s people keeping the two waiting, it slowly became more tense, this man wanted something. Was he apart of the mother cult? Why was he so desparate to know about the God Child? She can only wonder, but so far no true hostility has been expressed by either side, leaving things up to Emiya to decide how the tides of the conversation will shift.

The more the man pushed, the more Emiya's patience began to waver. He wasn't sure if Mira's antics were helping to distract from the Divinity's existence, though probably not. He appreciated that he wasn't alone, but at the same time she was being very obvious with her actions. As Madara pressed further and further with each remark, as he stated that the Child may be in danger, Emiya finally responded with a curt, dry tone.

"You're exactly right. The fact that he's safe is all that matters to me, and frankly I'd rather it stay that way."​

Rising to his feet, Emiya finally approached Madara, still cautious of the man's mere presence, and wholly expecting some retaliation to the easily misunderstood gesture of approaching, though uncaring of the man's interpretations of his actions. Being still aware enough not to enter his personal space, Emiya still got close enough to emphasize his words without raising his voice.

"He's with friends who are far more capable than I am, because when it mattered most, I failed to keep him safe.
I didn't recognize a threat when it was right in front of me, we were both pulled across the world, and isolated from anyone who might be able to help us, we fought for our lives - well, he fought for our lives, while I ran like a coward. When I finally had the courage to show my face again, he wasn't even a second away from being taken. In that moment I snapped, and tried to do anything I could to stop that from happening, and I did, but in my haste I didn't register my opponents attack. As a result, I may as well have been considered dead with the nature and amount of damage I took. And the only reason the fight ended there was because the Child took away our opponent's only leverage, and means of damaging him. Without that, I would be dead, and he would be gone...

I hope that's enough to sate your curiosity, and maybe understand why I'm not about to tell anyone where he is.
If you're right, and he's in danger, I trust my friends to keep him safe.
If they can't, well, they probably would have done a much better job than me anyway."​

Feeling like he'd given the man a more clear view of his reasons for being evasive, Emiya returned to the side of the building adjacent to the entrance to the Spider's lair. Not wishing any more interaction with the man, Emiya returned his attention to the door that shut as he arrived, only to immediately break from it as the man waved his hand and materialized a weapon. The act in and of itself could have been taken as a gesture indicating combat, though that was the last thing on Emiya's mind as, for the brief spell it was out, his eyes were transfixed on it, and yet he could discern absolutely nothing about it whatsoever. No schematic-like breakdown within his head, no guess at what the component materials could possibly be, no conceptual clue as to what it could be capable of. Nothing. As he stared at the staff, all he was met with was a wall of static, as though the weapon itself defied identification. Though his gaze lingered in wild speculation and disbelief at what exactly it was, eventually he returned his attention back to the door. Mira's prodding that he follow suit after she also twirled and showed off her weapon, which was equally interesting, though more understandable on the conceptual level, was met with a rather blunt response, not out of any lingering frustration at Madara's inquisition into Enkidu, but rather at the nature of the joking request itself.

"Sorry, but I don't have anything remotely as interesting as either of you.
All that I own are nothing more than imitations; Mere Fakes masquerading as the genuine articles.
I'd rather not embarrass myself by trying to copying you, without having the decency to display something worth the insult."​

With a snide laugh, hoping the tone in the conversation would continue as such, Emiya folded his arms over, displaying his disinterest in continuing the discussions at hand.

"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 directly from the reclusive black market cutthroat could one enter that inner sanctum.

With a snide laugh, hoping the tone in the conversation would continue as such, Emiya folded his arms over, displaying his disinterest in continuing the discussions at hand.

Mirabelle continued to smile and laugh though Madara could tell it wasn't authentic, perhaps in attempts to shift the direction of the conversation and tone of the trio. She chuckled and waved into existence her own weapon, a bow that she then ushered the young man to show his own, citing that she too had a weapon like Madara's which naturally caused a smile to form on his usually frowned face. Madara offered a single statement to her before turning back to the man she named Emiya as he walked forward.

"Trust me, these are not the same," he said coolly with a smirk.

As Emiya approached, he finally offered clearer information about the Child and his whereabouts, albeit still shrouded in some obscurity. Madara at least knew that a fight had transpired now, one that Emiya wasn't capable of handling from the sounds of it as the Child itself fought off their challenger and apparently forced them to retreat.

"Hmm, your reluctance means you well, I see. If what you say is true, perhaps the Child is safe - for now. Who knows what the future may hold for them? Hopefully those who seek him do not find him, though that in itself leads itself to several more questions..."

As his words trailed off, so did his thoughts as he began to attempt to piece together different information he had gained in recent times. He had no reason to distrust Emiya nor did it contradict anything he learned from Vayne but there were still holes that needed to be filled in. Where did the child come from? Why was it being pursued and did it truly have anything to do with Tiamat and her revival?

"Excuse me, I seemed to have lost my train of thought. The information you've given me has been helpful, both of you," Madara said, thanking the two for the words they spoke and the connections it helped to clear up. As he did so, Akujin leaned forward and relied to Madara that there was something more pressing in his thoughts that he had been putting off, to which Madara immediately realized - there was another object he could sense directly nearby. Perhaps it was like the one he sensed when he met Luther and it was still indecipherable as to what it was, which indirectly reminded him of the map he gave him.

As he pondered, Madara looked towards the entrance to this Spider and scoffed one last time before turning away and departing.

"We will meet again, Emiya, Mirabelle. Until then, stay dangerous."

Leaving landmark.

Though his tone didn't seem to imply hostile intent, there was a hint of it in the words Madara spoke, as though he did indeed wish harm, or knew someone who did. Whichever was the case, he left Enkidu in Solomon's care, and he trusted him to keep the God safe. With his curiosity sated however, the left with a rather blunt farewell, asking them to surround themselves in danger. It was danger Emiya sought to erase from the world, but he felt no need to halt the man's exit from the market, especially as the Spider's associate had invited him in, and waited patiently for him to enter. As he did, Emiya turned back to Mira, and gave her a quick glance.

"Don't blow up Veskal's when I get back just to say hi, okay?"​

With that, he entered fully, allowing the door to close behind him.

"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 more important business: Marzan's location."

Mirabelle’s brow knitted in interest as the two continued to talk; as one thing to note she heard the Uchiha say his weapon and hers are not of the same caliber. Whatever the hell that meant didn’t bother the Hayabusa in the slightest. However, as it would seem, the interactions with the Uchiha was coming to an end, evident with one of the aids of Spider summoning the red head. Mirabelle simply rose her cup in a farewell gesture to the Uchiha’s “stay dangerous” line, with a smirk as well. As with him gone, she turned to Emiya who was no being escorted by the aid towards the portal. She simply heard his remark about blowing stuff up just to say hello again next time. “Oh next time it wont be explosions…” she said with a genuine smile now, but noticed Emiya left his cup of sake behind. “Tch more for me I guess…” she said drinking it down on her own. She was left alone in the room by herself now and a few other strangers. Fiddling with her fingers, she decided to head out of the lair for a little while, catch some air while she’s freed for a bit. Hopefully her shinobi in Last Bastion are doing their best at keeping things going.

She can sense her clone back in the Graveyard of Sin was still alive and well, so not much to worry about. Only preparations for the battles to come soon…
