In a mysterious space, one that looks like it exists outside of the cosmos, a space where only the universes appeared, like stars, these lights all showed variations, multiple different realities born from a single world.
"That kid… he really went and did it…"
Within the vast space, a single high back chair existed.
At the center of this vast space, a single man sat on the chair, one that could not exist in reality.
Before the man was a table, atop the table sat a book, turned to a page that reflected the appearance of the young man known as James Barthomeloi…
"The anomaly who appeared in a single reality, an anchor that keeps that reality afloat… he alone kept a whole reality from being pruned. Not only resisting the world but even fooling it- truly… his nature is not a simple "invader", he's like a virus, unsatisfied with being a parasite, choosing to take over… a truly brilliant and frightening man"
The speaker, an old man who had the image of a lion, his face had a playful look plastered all over but this did not disguise the traces of time on his person.
Yet, despite looking advanced in years, he still maintained a bearing reminiscent of a man in his prime.
A classic image of a man in his silver years, he stroked his chin with his hand clad in white gloves. The image of James Barthomeloi flashing on the book, information about the man "glitching" as it did not maintain "order".
It was a chaotic mess, one that did not come from an influx of information but due to the nature of James himself.
"It appears I still can't see through him"
The old man lamented as he closed the book, at this time, an old radial dial telephone appeared behind the old man's chair.
"You really do love eavesdropping"
"Forgive me, I was just curious, what kind of reaction would someone like you have, especially when your most treasured student is at the precipice of recreating the very Magic you pride yourself in"
"I'd be proud"
"..."
"Not the reaction you expect?"
"Far from it, yet still within expectations"
"I see"
The exchange between the two was short, the expressions unchanging as if trying to hide their true intentions.
Their faces did not show much change nor any noticeable ques, a hallmark for people who had reached a certain level.
It was unlike James Barthomeloi's forced expressions, his clearly artificial mood. In the face of the two monsters who had lived for an unknown amount of time, James was nothing more than a newborn baby.
Though, it has to be noted that one of the participants in the conversation was a phone.
"Still, I wonder what kind of mess this kid has gotten himself into"
The old man spoke, his expression changing for the first time as multicolored lights flashed in his eyes-
"It's not within the reach of my magic"
He said, his words garnering the interest of the man who spoke through the phone-
"Oho? Is the kid trying to devour a whole reality?"
"I doubt that, he wouldn't have the guts"
"Yet he goes around impregnating Gods and humans alike"
The old man paused, his eyes turning sharp as he turned towards the telephone for the first time.
"So you noticed as well?"
"Don't misunderstand, I'm taking this all from the perspective of an observer, I'm simply curious, what kind of monstrosity will be born between an anomaly and a God"
The age of God's had long passed but their marks had remained, but now-
Initially, James Barthomeloi's existence had caused a subtle shift, a change in the texture of the world. His mere presence had allowed beings that should not be permitted to exist- to live amongst men once more.
Although limits were imposed, the fact that their existence had not been purged was proof enough.
"I simply hope he is able to protect that which he holds dear…"
The old man said as he took one final glance at the page of James Barthomeloi which had started to rot- no it was not the page but the book itself.
"The last thing I wish to see is another disaster…"
"Of course you'd take action before it strikes"
The old man remained silent, his eyes turning serious before he spoke-
"If only I could…"
"..."
꧁ ༺⏱༻ ꧂
Back in the Marvel Universe-
"So this is your room?"
Reines observed the "clean" room, she gazed at the bed, her eyes burning with flames of mystical energy.
"You don't need to go that far-"
(눈_눈)
"..."
James shut his mouth allowing Reines to do whatever she wanted- usually he would have not allowed her to just to whatever but-
'It's for the kid…'
He thought to himself, moreover, this wasn't the first time he allowed a woman to do whatever she wanted-
'Just wait for it Reines… when the baby's born… heh- don't even think of disguising yourself, I'll make sure you remain in your adult form by then, we'll see who's in charge' (⌓‿⌓)
James thought a devious smirk appeared on his face as stared at Reines' ass, due to her pregnancy, she wasn't able to hide behind her younger image. Unfortunately, her pregnancy also prevented James from doing anything.
Whilst James was fantasizing of actions he'd do in the future, Reines, ignoring the obvious change in expression on his face, continued to examine the room. She picked up various articles and observed them. She found quite a few interesting pieces which she kept in her own storage tool.
The storage tool was one of the mystic codes James had made based on the "Gate of Babylon".
Reines actions were in no way subtle, she did not hide her actions and just did openly, her undisguised actions did not get a reaction from James as he continued staring at her with a "daydreaming" expression.
Reines said as she read through some reports and discovered a pile of gems, she quickly crushed them all as she contemplated over the information she had just obtained.
After a few minutes of thinking, Reines turned back to James, her expression serene then- her eyes tensed up, a dark pressure was exuded from her as she asked-
"This is really an interesting world you found yourself in… how many women have you fucked?" (눈_눈)
In her hands were the profiles of various women, with large HD photographs. The most incriminating thing about those notes were the detailed information on their sizes, daily routine, kinks, fetishes, previous relationships…
If anyone were to see the records, they wouldn't hesitate to believe it if anyone claimed those documents belonged to a stalker.
Everything from the most superficial notes on their appearance to fingerprints were there.
Of course, the information could be disguised as a police report but-
This was neither a police station nor a law office…
James knew that he could not escape this as he answered truthfully, he maintained a lighthearted tone as he answered-
"Minus the homunculi, two, both of which are "business only"... well one of them is "strictly business" the other… well its complicated-" (ᵕ—ᴗ—)""
Though, he had to slow down and change his tone as he found Reines showing a frown the more he spoke.
"Oh? Is it the "accidental pregnancy" complicated or more of the "I love her" complicated?" <(ꐦㅍ _ㅍ)>
James could already see the annoyance on her face, so he tried to calm her down as he said-
"Reines… you know what type of bastard I am right? Come on, I know, you know about my relationships!" (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
He pleaded "guilty but for a reason", hailing his actions in the Nasuverse as a good reason why he could not have made a mistake! It was his nature after all, not like it was unexpected- in fact! It was TOTALLY expected!
Upon hearing James' response, Reines did not show a change in expression as she rolled her eyes answering him in a sarcastic tone.
"You never fucked them though-" (¬_ ´¬ )
James paused, he forced a smile as he answered-
"Well that's because of… reasons-" (ᵕ—ᴗ—)
Yet, his words were awkward, his eyes betrayed his smile showing his lie. But, Reines did not attack him on this. Instead she upped the sarcasm as she replied to him as if she had believed his worthless explanation.
"So the moment you're free from the responsibilities of a Barthomeloi you immediately become a stud? Shoving your dick in every hole you can? Siring children as if you're planning to start a war with them as your soldiers?" ( ⩌'︿'⩌)
James, upon hearing her answer changed his tone, his awkward smile disappeared replaced by an almost sulky look as he rebutted her words speaking in a near whisper-
"Now that's not a great analogy, I'd at least make them all part of my army, it would be my children vs the world!" ( •̯́ ₃ •̯̀)
Despite James' words being low, Reines was still able to hear them, her eyelids twitched in irritation as she exploded.
"THAT'S BESIDES THE POINT!" ⁽⁽(੭ꐦ •̀Д•́ )੭*⁾⁾
If there was a table- well there was but Reines didn't want to exert herself too much. The stress was already bad enough, add James' annoying personality into the mix and- it was really not a good time to be pregnant.
Reines did not say anymore, she felt a piercing headache coming as she rested on James chair, she leaned on the desk with one hand, she clenched her free hand while the other massaged her temples.
James went silent, he knew that this was not the time for games… there were many things James knew, he was experienced in a LOT of things but the one thing he had zero knowledge or experience in was being a father-
Moreover, right now, he was the father of an unborn child-
He had not experience dealing with pregnant women, hell, the closest experience he had to taking care of a mother was making one suck his-
"...uhm.. My bad?" (っ.❛ ▽ ❛.)っ
Realizing he had done something bad, James tried to apologize but Reines gave him a glare-
"You thought about something sexual just now didn't you?" (¬_¬")
James didn't expect her to notice his thoughts much less read them- no, his mind usually wandered around…
'Yeah- it's not like she knows about my relationship with Tohsaka's mother… yeah- that was purely transactional and all we did was foreplay… she may have given me head a few times… yeah- she was skilled beauty'
(⊙ _ ⊙ ) "Tohsaka's mom?! Of all the-" ( ◞•̀д•́)◞
Unable to hold herself back, Reines blurted out, her words quickly coming to a stop as she realized that she had misspoken-
'Wait what?! She can read minds? No… wait- fuck! No… I…' ¡|!(0∆0)!|¡
James, in a panic found himself unable to properly process things. The freedom he had in his mind suddenly lost, made him falter. Unintentionally the image of a certain white haired woman appeared in his mind.
He tried to stop it but the image of the woman, naked and begging on all fours-
"Seriously? That bitch Goddess?" (っ ͡ ͡º - ͡ ͡º ς)
At this point, Reines had already dropped all pretenses, the chaotic mind of James had already started to show her memories which she never had access to.
Normally, James mind was protected even from her but now- James was still in a panic as his thoughts spun crazily revealing information that would have damned him if Lorelei knew…
'She's hot okay! By principle I can't really do anything with Illya's mom so what do you expect me to do? Fuck a thousand year old meat puppet?! WAIT! No- I-' ૮₍•᷄ 0 •᷅₎ა
But this state of his did not last long as his mind regained clarity, his expression turned blank as he stared at Reines asking-
"How?" (｡･-･)?
In response to his question, Reines unbuttoned her coat revealing the blouse beneath which she unbuttoned as well revealing her now bountiful chest but James did not focus on the crevice and mounds-
His gaze was instead focused on the golden crest on her chest. Upon seeing this crest realization dawned on James as he removed his top where he saw a similar crest on his chest.
Reines stared at him like he was an idiot, not saying a words just a blank stare-
"..." (ㅎ.ㅎ)
James now showed a panicked expression-
"Oh crap-" (·•᷄O•᷅ )
At this point, Reines buttoned her clothes up once more, she stared at James, tilting her head slight she gave him a "bright" smile while asking-
"Now what was that about mothers, heads and domination? Also… what did you plan to do after I give birth?" (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)
For the first time in his life, James found himself unable to do anything-
Power? Strength?
He was a bastard but he wasn't a psychopath!
The most he would do was make fun of, or tease people close to him… he always had an upper hand because he kept most of his thoughts to himself.
Now though-
"Since when?" \_(╥﹏╥)_/
James gave up, he had lost- for the first time…
Unable to do anything, James, for the first time gave up and accepted that he had lost-
Normally, Reines would feel a sense of loss whenever James accepted defeat. But those were moments where he always believed he had a way out. Now though, he fully accepted defeat- getting James to have a taste of his own medicine made Reines happy.
She had spent quite some time preparing all this, in fact, the magic crest was a recent one, it was placed just moments ago.
When she realized that she was being summoned, she quickly identified that the summoner was James.
How? Others would have had a hard time but Reines was familiar with James' origin. She didn't even need to try as she quickly noticed the all too familiar trace.
With that knowledge, she quickly took action-
Her years of practice did not go to waste, she was quick to realize the kind of magecraft being used. Moreover, despite being powerful enough to break through different dimensions, the magecraft was quite- rough.
She used this to create a pseudo-contract, the summoning, calling for those related to James, had been transformed by Reines.
Using the same principles as the Holy Grail War summoning, she created a backdoor, a loophole where a non binding contract was formed with the summoner.
It was similar to a data miner, it did not affect the whole spell, preventing resistance. But the damage it could cause was-
Seeing the defeated look on James' expression, Reines found herself unable to contain her smile. A certain feeling of dominance came over her as she realized-
'I see… I understand why he loves dominating women with power… but- now I'm the dominant one'
Reines smirked as she replied to James-
"Guess~" (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
James, seeing the expression on Reines face, the slight blush and the light of pink in her eyes made him, the man all to familiar with that expression shudder-
Usually it was him who had such an expression, working hard to hide it while he pushed women down but now-
"Mercy…" (つ╥﹏╥)つ
