I do not own Fate/ Stay Night or Re:Zero this is a fanfiction only.

To say I was furious was an understatement, I was so angry I was seeing red. I immediately activated all my magic circuits in one go and rebuilt my sword in less time it takes a person to blink. I then did something they were not expecting, I took the broken club off the broken table near me and remade it to an exact copy of my Calibur.

I took one in each hand and they both began to flow, the one I had in my right-hand red, and the one in my left-hand blue. "I think I should make you learn the error of underestimating me. First, you called our fight as if it was plain babysitting, Second you said that you were actually holding back, and last but not least you didn't even consider us a threat."

I jumped at her and as she tried to use her right dagger to cut my throat, I slammed my left sword against her dagger, the dagger began to give off white smoke and her arm began to freeze solid. Had she not cut off her right arm she entire body would be frozen where it stood.

Just as she tried to kill me with her left, I slammed my sword against her left dagger causing the blade to burst into flames. She had to let go of the dagger or risk having her hand burned to charcoal.

"You could do all this to me and you dare to act like I insulted you by holding back. Looks like the kettle is calling the pot black. You didn't show these skills as we fought earlier. I think I shall leave and once I regrow my arm again, I shall look forward to another fight with you, but this time by ourselves."

She was ready to run away and the knight looked like he was willing to let her escape, I, however, knew better than allowing her to live another day. If she was allowed to continue to exist she would cause nothing but more harm.

As she began to run I made a motion as if I was getting to shoot an arrow, my two swords merged and they began to act as if they were being the arrow of my invisible bow. I pulled the bowstring that neither could see and fire my makeshift arrow.

The arrow made from my two swords hit her right in the center of her back and continued to cut through her until the two blades came out where her lungs would have been located. The body fell to the ground and turned to ashes, and those ashes were blown away in a heavy wind.

"Well, Felt I think I more than earned that insignia don't you?" She smiled and so did Rom and I knew that she understood that I was not going to be leaving the pawn shop without it, and thanks to my way of finishing off the Bowel Hunter, they also knew I was not someone they should mess with.

She walked over and handed me the insignia that she had stolen. "Of course, this little trinket is more than enough as a thank you for saving me and Rom's life. If you ever need some help from us, be sure to drop by. I am sure we both be happy to help you with anything you might need help with in the future."

The knight had another idea, "As lovely as that is, I am sorry but you are coming with me. I need you to come and explain how the Bowel Hunter was finally put to rest. Now if you will excuse us, we have quite a bit of a walk to the castle."

I began walking out of the pawn shop and the old man also thanked me. I remade his club from the sword I used and thanked him for his help. The old man laughed and also thanked both of us for saving his life.

We both began to walk towards the center of the town, where the market was and I found a young child, she looked like she was alone and was crying as if she didn't know where her mother was. I guess I just have to take the fruit merchant's daughter to her mother.

Knowing where the lady was it actually made the task of helping the kid find her a lot easier. "Mind telling me what do you plan to do with my insignia?" I looked at her and smiled, and I looked at the kitten sitting on her head.

"Why I planned to give it to you when you asked, I had no intention of keeping this from you. In fact, I did most of this to help you recover this piece of jewelry. It's important to you, isn't it? The name is Shirou Emiya, and do try to keep this safer."

I handed her the insignia and she smiled, "Thank you, I indeed was trying to recover this, my name is Emilia and this little guy on my head is Puck, a spirit. Now you must come with me to meet my patron and receive a proper reward for the good deed you have done on my behalf."

I was sorely tempted to tell her that I didn't need any sort of reward for doing a good deed, but then again I found myself woefully lacking in both knowledge and resources to even do that. I decided to accept her invitation to meet this supposed patron of hers. If this world has taught me anything so far, it's not to take things as they appear.

The trip was actually rather nice, I got to say one thing about this world. The air was so clean, and the way it felt as we walked through the streets was more refreshing that I ever remember feeling before. It must have something to do with the fact that even though they have a pretty good level of development, the place was practically pollution free.

I guess magic was the thing that helped this place avoid the pitfalls own dimension was unable to avoid. "Puck do you mind if I ask you a few questions?" The little guy floated near me and sat on my shoulder.

"I don't mind answering a few questions if you don't mind answering a few of my own." I could see nothing wrong with that, and nodded at the notion.

"So mind telling me how much can you sense about me? You know I can use magic, but maybe since I never had an actual instructor I could certainly use the viewpoint of a much more knowledgeable person like yourself."

He began laughing and Emilia was smiling at me as I finished saying that, "You know you are the first person to realize that indeed I am rather wise when it comes to magic, most people think of me as nothing more than a pet. As far as I can tell your main element is darkness, but sometimes I can see something rather odd about you. Like the elements change almost like they are in a constant state of flux."

"It's causing me to be quite dizzy when I look at your elemental affinity truth be told."

I smiled as I without any intention began to rub him behind the ears. "Like I said, my magic is entirely self-taught. You could say my magic is one that is pretty much creation magic. I can repair, reconstruct or modify things with my magic. Say for instance how I made that club into a sword."

He must really like the way I touched him, cause he kept purring as I rubbed him behind the ears. He looked at me as I stopped and I smiled as I saw Emilia looking rather happy. "So why is it that you seem to prefer swords?"

I never really spent any time thinking about it, but I guess it had to do with my childhood dreams. "Puck to tell you the truth I don't know. I just feel more comfortable with a sword than with other weapons. Don't get me wrong, I can use a bow, a spear, and even a whip, but as far as I can remember I always feel better when I use a sword."

"My dad used to joke that I felt comfortable with swords because he said that maybe my entire body was millions of miniature sword instead of flesh and blood like all other people. I dreamed about swords, all kinds of swords ever since I was small."

When we reached the supposed home of Emilia's patron, I couldn't help but to this was not a mansion in any extent of the word, this was a palace. The gardens were beautiful, the layout screamed to me that it was a place of serenity and comfort. The walls were so white I could even imagine the entire building was made of ivory.

By the front door were a pair of twin girls, both dressed in the same uniform, but one had red and the other had blue hair. "Ram the stalker is looking at us in a weird way." Her sister nodded her head, and turned to look at her sister, "Rem the weirdo stalker is looking at us."

I was wondering if I should correct them, or just try and figure out which part of that welcome was supposed to make me feel welcomed? "He is not a weirdo or a stalker, he helped me recover my insignia. Is the Lord here? I brought Shirou here so that he could meet him and maybe reward him for aiding me."

Both maids looked at me like it was impossible for me to have helped anyone and then they looked at Emilia, "The Lord is in the seating room waiting for you to arrive Lady Emilia. He seems to have some things that he must discuss with you. Do you want the weird stalker to go with you or would you rather he wait outside? I and Rem will keep an eye on him so that he doesn't do anything wrong."

I had more than enough, if this is how they treat guests, I don't need to get any sort of thank you. I don't even want to imagine what they consider a thank you. I turned around and just as I began to walk away, I felt someone grab my arm trying to get me to stop.

"Shirou don't mind them, come on you must meet Lord Rooswald. I think you are in for quite a treat." I turned around and looked at her and Puck, "Look Emilia it is plain to see that I am not what you would call a welcomed guest, I really should go before I end up causing any trouble. I keep telling you I don't need a reward for helping you."

She was not letting go of my arm anytime soon, and instead began pulling me on my arm till we arrived in a rather nice looking tea room, the man was wearing some of the weirdest and most colorful clothes I ever was seen, he has enough white makeup on his face that he could work as a mime and single eye with purple eye shadow on the left side of his face.

They work for this guy, and the two twin maids called me weird? "Emilia for the last time, I don't need a reward for finding your insignia. It's not that major of a deal, I always help people in need, it's something I always end up doing."

She looked at me and began pushing me down till I was seated in an armchair right across her patron. He began laughing as she sat down in the armchair right next to the one I was seated. "While it is wonderful that you do help others in such a selfless way, you are incorrect. As far as I can tell you helped my good friend recover her insignia, you may not understand the value of that insignia so it falls to me to enlighten you about that."

"That insignia is proof that she is one of the several young women that is a potential candidate to be selected to be the ruler of this nation, and thus the insignia is an extremely valuable and desired item. It could pretty much allow anyone who presents it as his or hers the chance to be the ruler of this nation, and that includes all the wealth this nation possesses"

"Now I do believe that helping my friend Emilia is indeed worthy of some manner of reward, and as her patron, it falls to me to award you a reward as splendid as the deed you did on behalf of my friend. So for recovering the insignia, you may ask me for anything, I mean anything at all, and if it's within my power I shall grant it."

For starters, this dimension was not really where I originally came from, but I did get the feeling that Emilia would need my help if she managed to get something that valuable stolen and this was the start of her trials to eventually be a queen. I guess she would need more help to achieve her goal.

I still felt like I didn't deserve any reward but what I desperately needed was a place to live, and a way to earn a living. I was not going to be a burden on my friend if I could help it.

"Very well, I have a request, my Lord." I stood up and walked up in front of him. I decided to show how serious I was by kneeling in front of him. This caught everyone by surprise if the looks they were giving were any indication.

"I refused to be a burden to my friend, so my request is simple. I wish that you may provide me with a place to live so that I may help Emilia, and gainful employment so that I can secure a means to pay for my upkeep. In other words, I want to live and work here and be able to help my friend. That is my request."
