《The Life of a Wizard》The Greatest Hero

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I walk through the streets of the kingdom, fire and destruction can be seen everywhere.
"Saber, Lancer, Archer, Berserker. Come to me." I ordered and immediately all of the Servants materialize in front of me.
I turn my attention to Siegfried. "Where have you been?"
"You told me to go get milk, Master." Siegfried said.
I arch an eyebrow. "Milk? When did I tell you to go get milk?"
"It was early in the morning..." Siegfried began.
"Hey, Siegfried?" I call to as I sit on the couch watching TV.
Siegfried appears behind me. "Yes, Master?"
"We're out of milk. Could you go get some?"
"Of course, Master." Siegfried bows and disappears.
"Oh yeah." I said, finally remembering. "Did you get the milk then?"
"Here it is." Siegfried hands me the milk jug.
I look at the jug's date. "Siegfried, this is expired." I point out. "Where exactly did you go to get milk?"
"I went to Vacuo, Master." Siegfried said.
"THAT'S ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD! WHY DID YOU GO SO FAR!?" I yelled.
"They were out of milk in the local supermarket. I heard that Vacuo has the best quality milk so I decided to go there. It took about 93 days to head to Vacuo and back." Siegfried revealed.
"YOU WENT TO VACUO ON FOOT!? ARE YOU STUPID OR SOMETHING!?" I exclaimed.
"I can't believe you made a Heroic Spirit go buy groceries for you. Have you no shame?" Ishtar scoffs.
"Keep talking like that and I'll make you mow the lawn next time." I told her.
"Eep!"
"Serves you right." Ereshkigal snickers.
"What are your orders?" Scáthach asks.
"You and Morgan deal with the Grimm and White Fang. Ishtar and Ereshkigal can help evacuate the civilians. As for you, Siegfried, I want you to go to Beacon Tower and wait for further orders." I said.
"Understood." The Servants all disappear except for one.
"Hm? What's wrong Mor-HMMP!?"
Morgan lets me go. "Be careful, my husband." With that, she disappears.
I clear my throat. "Well then..." I turn eyes to the Grimm whale in the sky "Best not disappoint her." I tap on the floor and a whirlwind form under my feet. It lifts me upwards and I pierce right through its membrane and land on some kind of throne room.
"Oh, it seems the star guest has finally arrive."
"Fufufufu, to think he would come to us. The Queen has truly blessed us on this day!"
"Well, if it isn't dumb and dumber. Since Cinder failed, I guessed you guys were next on the list." I look around and notice someone missing. "Where's Moe Howard?"

Suddenly, something massive collides with my face sending me flying back.
"OZPIN!" Hazel screams.
I slowly get up. "Oof, you sure pack quite a punch." I reach out for my cane only for it to be kicked aside by Tyrian.
"Naughty, naughty. We can't have that, now can't we?" He then proceeds to kick me in the face.
"This is the man Salem fears? Pathetic." Arthur scoffs.
Hazel glares at Arthur. "I would not underestimate him. He is as sneaky as a snake."
"Hmph." Arthur huffs.
"I'll admit, you got me good. But," I stand up. "If you think I'm defenseless then you are mistaken." I reach to the back of my belt. "It a good thing this was on sale. Who knew Remnant has their own version of Black Friday?"
"It's Morphin' Time!"
Hazel sees this and immediately goes for the kill.
"Dino Thunder, Power Up!"
The sudden surge of energy blows back Hazel.
"Dino Thunder, Black Ranger!" I strike a pose.
Arthur does a mock clap. "Impressive performance. Maybe you should have been performer instead of a Huntsman."
"Oh don't worry, I have more tricks up my sleeve." I quipped.
"We'll see. Tyrian!" Tyrian charges in.
"Brachiostaff!" I take out my sword and parry his attacks. Tyrian tries to use his tail only for me to grab it at the last moment and hurl him out of the chamber.
Hazel gets up and glares at me. He takes out Dust crystals from his pouch and stabs them into his arms causing him to grow larger and surging with energy.
"Looks like black isn't gonna be enough." I take out the Master Morpher. "Shift Into Turbo! Red Lightning Turbo Power!"
"Let's do this! Auto Blaster!" I take blaster out of its holster and blast Hazel in the face with it.
"Grrr!" Hazel disregards the shots and charges in closer, but I manage to evade the attack.
"Zeo Ranger V; Red!"
I materialize the Power Sword and charge at Hazel. The giant swings its massive fist at me.
"Zeo Five Power Spin!"
I hit Hazel in the chest causing him to stagger backwards.
"Time to finish this!" I summon the Power Sword. "Zeo Five Battle Sword, Power Up!" I rotate the Power Sword causing the blade to light up with energy. I deliver downward slash at Hazel sending him flying out of the Grimm.
Tyrian manages to regain consciousness and charges at me, but I manage to dodge his stinger without much effort.
"Now it's your turn again." I take my Master Morpher. "Tigerzord! White Ranger power!"

I take out Saba and we begin the duel. Tyrian tries to shoot me but the bullets merely bounce off my suit. He then tries a blade and sting combo attacks, but I dodge them with jumps and flips. In that moment, I grab Tyrian's tail and use Saba to slice it off!
"AHHHH! MY TAIL!" Tyrian screams in pain. "YOU ASSHOLE!"
"When you go to hell, tell Hazel to make some room." I smack Tyrian with his tail then proceed to kick him in the stomach, causing him to lose his balance and fall through the hole I made.
"And then there was one." I said as I turn my sights to Watts. "You could surrender peacefully, you know. Or not, it doesn't make a difference to me."
I turn to see a massive Wyvern coming out of Mt. Glenn.
Arthur laughs. "You're too late, fool! The Wyvern has awakened! Now you have no hope of surviving! Vale is doomed!"
"Not so fast, you creepy pedophile! I have one more trick up my sleeve!" I turn to the outside. "SIEGFRIED! SHOW THE WORLD THE MIGHT OF A DRAGON SLAYER!"
"What!?" Watts said.
From the top of Beacon Tower, the Dragon Slayer Siegfried hears his Master's words.
He stares at the Wyvern coming to Vale.He twists the handle of his sword, causing large amounts of magical energy to be released all at once.More and more energy builds up until it reaches the very heavens themselves.
The Wyvern fires fireballs at Siegfried but they are nullified by an energy field.
The beam comes down on the Wyvern, splitting it into two. I let out a death cry before it completely evaporates.
The attack doesn't stop as it heads towards the Grimm whale, and us!
"Oh dear." I grab Watts and we jump out of the Grimm before it is completely destroyed. I stab Saba on a nearby building to slow the descend before throwing Watts to the ground.
Watts slowly stands up. "You... you think this means you've won!?" Arthur screams out as I land in front of him. "This means nothing! As we speak, Salem is on the verge of creating the ultimate Grimm! This world will die by her hand!"
I sigh. "You know, for someone so smart, you cannot be this stupid. You know FULL well what Salem's intent is and yet you continue to help her simply because you're butt hurt that James didn't put you on a pedestal." I scoff. "It makes sense, however, since you're all so pathetic separately, you may as well work together to be at least something done."
At this point, Arthur snaps.
He takes out his revolver and starts to shoot at me.
"It's Morphin' Time! Dragonzord!"
I charge at Arthur and deliver a series of punches and kicks at him. He tries to counter, but I catch his arm and twist it until I break it.
"AAAHHHHHH!" Arthur screams in pain.
I make a hand movement as orbs form around my hands then with another gesture, the orb fires with an electric discharge at Arthur as he is engulfed in an explosion that sends him flying towards a boulder that hits his head, knocking him out.
"Haa... it's over." My Servants then begin to appear behind me. "Report."
"All Grimm have been exterminated and the White Fang has been neutralized." Scáthach states.
"The civilians were also rescued and taken to the Bullheads for evacuation." Ereshkigal adds.
"And the colosseum?" I asked.
"Everyone's fine. A little scare, but what can you do?" Ishtar flicks her hair. "They should feel thankful. I went through all that trouble flying up there yet the moment they see me, they start pooping their pants."
"I guess this is the first time someone actually found you revolting, huh?" Ereshkigal snarks.
She ignores the remark and floats closer to me. "Gotta say, I like the new look. Screams retro."
I look at suit. "I think it screams hero to me."
"Well regardless, can you take it off already. Green isn't exactly my color." Ishtar said.
"Power down." The suit vanishes and I am back to normal.
"Much better." Ishtar smiles.
Morgan kisses my cheek. "You kept your promise."
"I don't remember promising anything, but I got another kiss so I don't care." I shrug.
I pick up my Scroll. "Yello~"
"Ozpin!? Oh thank the Brothers you're alive! When I saw that light I feared the worst!" Glynda exclaims.
"It's fine, Glynda. I'm fine. The day is saved." I told her.
"Good. Because you still have to finish these forms-" I hung up.
"Well, that was rude." Ereshkigal comments.
"She was going to get in the way of cuddle time with husband. She should be thankful I didn't curse her." Morgan argued.
"Alright, ladies, calm down. Let's just enjoy ourselves for now." I told them.
"What? Here? You're kidding, right?" Ishtar asks as she gestures to the destroyed city.
"Fair enough. How about we go to Mistral instead? I hear the hot springs are good this year." I suggested as we are all enveloped in a kaleidoscope and disappear.

Witches of the Night
Few know this, but, beneath our cities, in the midst of forests and mountains and even under the waters of the ocean, there is another world, a world full of magic, fantastic places, and mythological and imaginary creatures. By chance, I became aware of it, and my curiosity led me to explore it. Now, I regret not having controlled myself, not having ignored this knowledge and continued with my regular life. For, though I have seen incredible things beyond the imagination of most people, I also met the Witches of the Night and the terrible truths about the human condition and the place of humanity in the universe they brought with them. How do I get back to a normal life after everything I saw? I don't know if it's possible, but this account is an attempt to mitigate the terrible effects of this knowledge, a first step toward normalcy. Perhaps sharing everything I discovered, the simple idea that this knowledge is not only mine, will help me.

The Gambit
The kingdoms have rarely experienced peace, with kings and rulers warring against each other on any percieved slight. With explorers riding the waves to find new lands and merchants eager to set up trade routes while profiting as much as possible. Would the status quo still hold up? The veil is already weakining as more magic and horrors seep through the gap. How would the world deal with the sudden increase in the limited resource of magic? With the times changing, barren lands become trade hubs and the power shifts. The system holding it all together, is in a fragile balance, would a single death break the balance and cause the most devastating war the people have experienced. The direction of the story : The story will not contain any main protagonist, rather multiple protagonists and antagonists with the protagonists having bad some character traits and the antagonists some good ones. I plan to make a story of flawed humans, so if you are looking for OP MCs you would not enjoy it. But I still hope you give it a try. This is my first time writing and I am doing it to get better, so any suggestion or criticism is welcome. I am a university student, so do not expect a robust upload schedule, I'll try to put out 2 chapters a week, but there might be some delays. I apologize for it in advance. P.s. English is not my native language, so there might be some errors, though I tried to mitigate them as much as possible.
