One hit is enough | Audio

[ An audio feed starts to broadcast. At first there's only silence, not even an enemy striking or crying from mercy. Some seconds after, a voice can be heard. ]

Interesting. I must admit that not once in my life I thought something like this would occur. [ The voice comes from a calm man, a bit amused for this whole situation. ] To think that I would arrive to a strange place without Master... Hahaha! Perhaps the one that summoned me here is listening to this, hm? [ A thoughtful pause, as if he's recalling something. ]

However, it seems like this time would be different from that one. I will not swing these fists of mine without provoked. Now, I would appreciate some answers about this place. You may call me Assassin for now if you need a name, heh.

[ With a small chuckle, the recording seems to end. ]

Honestly, it's a bit tiresome having handfuls of people all with the same name. Not that this is your fault at all, of course.

[Voice]

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

Hm? You speak with knowledge of the Servants. Are you a Master or a Servant, boy?

[Voice]

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'm really tempted to say Servant and see if I could play a joke, but really, I'm no one important. I've just learned about the war.

[Voice]

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

Hahaha! It's my first time of hearing someone willingly say they would think of them as a Servant when they are not. [ There's a light chuckle at that. ] How far do you know, boy?

[Voice]

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Masters, summon Heroic Spirits as Servants, fight to win the Holy Grail, a lot of people die.

[Audio] Oh hai.

[princesszero]

[In ur game, chilling xD]

If there is one summoning people, he sure is hiding well.

[Audio] fancy seeing you here

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

[ Oh, Rei. ]

As a master of deceiving, I have to admit that this goes beyond my expectations! [ and yet he sounds amused by that... ] You seem to know some things about this place, what can you tell me?

[Audio] Not me, I don't exist lol lol xD

[princesszero]

Actually I can't say I know that much.

Just that getting dragged here seems to be the norm.

[Audio] you are the illusion of an anata xDD

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

So I see. [ A moment to make a pause, yes. ] You say this place trapped us here, for what propose that would be?

[Audio] Yep.

[princesszero]

I wouldn't know.

Hmmm... It's just no good. This has been bugging me for a while: how can an Assassin introduce themselves as "Assassin" and expect to be taken seriously?

[And he's not even touching on that whole "Old Man of the Mountain" clause, either...]

[voice]

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

[ sldfnwjsdlfks Lancer why. ]

Oh? So you are familiar with the class. [ he sounds somewhat amused at that. ] To answer your question I'm afraid I do not rely in just a name to prove anything. We will speak with our fists if it's your wish to see what I am made of! Hahahaha!

[voice]

[athngabla.livejournal.com]

[Because Lancer, pretty much.]

Ha! You and the other one both -- you're not much for skulking about in the shadows, are you? Not that I'm against that change in spirits, of course.

[voice]

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

[ Best thing ever. ]

I may conceal in the shadows of the path I once walked, man. I have seen only one to stand and survive my strike!

[voice]

[athngabla.livejournal.com]

An attack from the shadows is still the attack of a coward, no matter how skilled that coward might be.

Hoo, another Servant of the Assassin class. Color me surprised.

voice

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

Oh, you are the first one I met in this place. I have seen many of this class fall from the same trick, but you seem different! I like that!

voice

[swallowreversed.livejournal.com]

Hoo, not one to assess someone from mere words, are you not? I suppose I will be fond of you, another Assassin.

What possibly could I do to help a fellow Servant of the same class, then?

voice

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

The feeling is mutual, another Assassin. I'll be looking forward to hear more of you!

I suppose some information would be appreciated.

voice

[swallowreversed.livejournal.com]

Not much I could give to you, however you should have already figured that we're not in the same place we're originated from, haven't you? This place is called Prospero, somewhere around the western continent, according to data I've collected.

...!

[Hearing that voice, Hakuno's breath sharply stills and every nerve in her body became paralyzed with fear. This was... Julius's Servant. The one who almost killed Saber... the one who they almost had to face with the highest disadvantage until Rin bailed them out. And there was also that one time when she almost got killed by him while wandering through the halls.

Julius wasn't here to command Assassin to kill, but... Hakuno was still an enemy Master. To be safe, she sticks to an audio call.]

... What do you need to know?

voice.

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

[ That's a voice he can recognize everywhere. It's not a pleasant moment to remember that she was the one that killed you and then you returned as a Berserker but we don't know that but he's not one to complain. ]

Hahaha! I never expected to run into you here, girl. So even you are trapped!

voice.

[willdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

[Oh crap, he knows. Dammit, I should've expect much... What now? I... better keep it cool.]

Yeah. I don't really mind it.

voice.

[nosecondstrike.livejournal.com]

[ He surely appreciates the conversation. And he doesn't sound like murdering you, so rest assured.... ]

I suppose this is the first time observing the world as such, am I right? [ He sounds quite amused, really. ] The path you chose, I hope it doesn't have any regrets, girl.

voice.

[willdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

Mm.

[Appreciate away, because Hakuno's probably only one rank higher in conversation compared to Assassin's Master.]

I don't remember what the real world is like, so it's interesting. As for regrets, I can't exactly feel that over something I can't control.
