The Zi-O Sidestories II: Choices

Following the events of Episode 9, Sebas is confronting Ohma Zi-O in a private room with Solution in her Pleaides Outfit.

Ohma Zi-O: I sense a great disturbance in the force... *clears throat* Now then, let me start asking you, Sebas.

Ohma Zi-O was sitting on the bed with Demiurge as Woz and Victim beside him.

Ohma Zi-O: Do I need to explain why I am hete?

Sebas: No, there is no need.

He answers that with a sweat on his head. Ohma Zi-O then snaps his fingers.

Solution: Zi-O-sama?

She then falls to the ground turning to dust.

Ohma Zi-O: Eh?

Sebas: Zi-O-sama... I don't feel so good...

He also fell down turning to dust.

Ohma Zi-O: EHHHHHHHHHHHHH---

TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES

Ohma Zi-O: What's wrong Sebas? You're sweating something awful.

He grabs a Handkerchief.

Ohma Zi-O: I'll lend you my handkerchief.

He throws it near Sebas as he gulped.

Sometime later, Solution knocked on the door as she opened the door.

Solution: I have brought her, Waga Maoh.

Ohma Zi-O: Come on in, Tuare. The Human Pet that Sebas took in.

Tuare walks in as she gasped at the appearance of Ohma Zi-O. Tuare walked to Sebas' side.

Ohma Zi-O: You have courage not to run away.

Solution closes the door as Tuare looks at Sebas worriedly as Sebas himself still has a calm look. Cocyutus positioned himself behind Sebas.

Woz: ON YOUR KNE--

Ohma Zi-O: No, control skills are unncessary. To extul her knowledge, I will permit her indecorum before me First, why don't I tell you my name. I am Ohma Zi-O. I am the Master of Sebas over there.

Tuare: H-Hai.

Ohma Zi-O: Now then, Sebas, I thought I instructed you act in a way. that would not draw or attract any attention.

Sebas: Yes, my Lord.

Ohma Zi-O: Nonetheless, you have been courted trouble by killing someone for the sake of this no-account woman. Am I wrong?

Sebas: I am deeply sorry that my indescretion has earned you displease, Waga Maoh, and I will be more mindful that something like this won't happen ever again.

Ohma Zi-O: Enough. Everyone makes mistakes. So do I. Sebas, I will forgive your trivial blunder.

Sebas: *bows* Waga Maoh, I am deeply grateful.

Tuare also bows.

Ohma Zi-O: But! You must make amends for your mistake. *visors glows blood red* Kill her.

Sebas: What... did you say...

His eyes widened in shock and disbelief.

Ohma Zi-O: Sebas, are you a dog that obeys the Supreme One? That obeys the 41? Or are you someone who believes his own will is correct?

Sebas: Well I---

Ohma Zi-O: I NEED NOT ANSWER! Demonstrate me through results.

Tuare tries to pull Sebas right sleeve as Sebas then turns to her who only smiled and closes her eyes. Sebas then goes in a stance. Then he was going to punch her but COCYUTUS STOPS HIS FIST! Sebas' eyes widened at that action.

Sebas: What are you...?

Cocyutus merely grunted in response.

Ohma Zi-O: Sebas, back away!

Sebas: Hai!

He backs away as Tuare opens her eyes and was surprised she's still alive.

Ohma Zi-O: Cocyutus, was that attack undeniably and deliberately intended to kill her?

Cocyutus walks in front of her.

Cocyutus: Of course.

Ohma Zi-O: In that case, it is proof that Sebas' loyalty is still unfeigned. Good work, Sebas.

Sebas: Yes, my Lord.

He bowed with Tuare following.

Ohma Zi-O: Now, let's move on to the next topic. Sebas, I have evaluated your work here has gathered enough information. I have the decided that we will vacate the mansion, and return to Nazarick. As for the fate of the woman, let me give myself some time. I do not think it will be death, but know this determination is not absolute. Demiurge, I will take victim back with me.

Woz: Hai.

He then gives Victim to Ohma Zi-O as he hugs him with one hand. Ohma Zi-O then presses the Wizard Ridewatch.

<<WIZARD!>>

<<CONNECT, PLEASE!>>

A magical circle appears above of Ohma Zi-O. As it descends, Ohma Zi-O disappears until the Magical Circle touches the ground and also disappears.

Both Sebas and Tuare were in awe of the display. Sebas then looks at Tuare a little bit.

Sebas: She appears to be fatigued, I will let her get some rest on her room. I will take her alone. This is no longer a matter, am I right, Lord Demiurge?

Woz: I suppose you are right, Sebas.

Woz then deforms back to Demiurge.

Sebas bowed as both him and Tuare leaves the room as both of them walked in the hallway. As they reached Tuare's room both of them stopped.

Sebas: I have no intention of apologizing. However, if I had gone about this some other way, things would not ended up this way.

Tuare: Sebas-sama...

Sebas: You go and live happily in the world of humans. Lord Zi-O should be able to perform memory manipulation. Erase all of your bad memories, and live.

Tuare: What about you, Lord Sebas?

Sebas: Let's have him erase memories of me, as well. There is nothing good to remember about me, after all.

Tuare: What do you mean, nothing good? My happiness comes being with you, Lord Sebas! I do not think of this place as hell. You gave me meals to fill my belly, and have a decent job. I was born and raised in a small village. My life there is a difficult one, as well. Even after plowing the fields while our tummies were growling, the Feudal Lord took all the crops we all grew, leaving next to nothing for a new few months. Not to mention, in the Lord's view, we were simply playthings. Even when I screamed, he would keep laughing, violated me...

She starts to cry.

Tuare: I...

Sebas: All right.

Sebas then starts to hug her by surprise.

There goes my heart beating,

'Cause you are the reason...

Sebas: It may mean your death.

Tuare: If I get killed by you, Lord Sebas...

She couldn't controlled her tears as she let it all out.

I'm losing my sleep,

Please come back now...

Tuare: By you, this gentleman, who offered me this warmth... when I destined to come die back there...

There goes my mind racing...

'Cause you are the reason

That I'm still breathing...

I'm hopless now

Sebas: Tuare, I will ask Lord Zi-O to let me take you back with me to Nazarick.

Tuare: Thank you very much... I love you.

Sebas' eyes widened before he softened his eyes and hugs Tuare as she hugged back as she let her tears flow.

I'll climb every mountain!

And swim every ocean!

Just to be with you!

And fix what I've broken...

Oh, 'cause I want you, to see~~

That you are the reason...

Sebas then opens his eyes.

Sebas: Let me verify you one thing.

Tuare: Yes?

Sebas: Do you have any attachments in the world of humans?

Tuare: I would like to see my younger sister again. But my desire to not remember the past is stronger still.

Sebas: Very well. You go to your room. I will go and see Lord Zi-O again.

Tuare: Hai. *smiles*

She then goes higher as she kissed Sebas lips as his eyes widened and blush. She then stops the kiss as she kept blushing and giggled.

Tuare: That was prickly.

(Sebas Sugar Daddy confirmed.)

Sebas kept maintaning his cool gaze but his blush is still there.

Tuare: I never shared a happy kiss before.

Sebas then returned to the living room as Solution, Cocyutus, Demiurge is still there.

Sebas: I have returned.

Demiurge: Is something the matter? Your face is still flushed.

Sebas: It is nothing, Lord Demiurge.

Demiurge: You need not to use that title with me.

Cocyutus: I don't need it, either.

Sebas: Hai.

Ohma Zi-O returns from the portal. They all bowed to his presence.

Ohma Zi-O: Thank you for greeting me. Rise. Now then, Demiurge, I trust that your anxious mind has been relieved? I never once thought that Sebas would betray me.

Demiurge: I am terribly sorry about that. Furthermore, I am grateful that you acknowledged my viewpoint when I voiced my objection to your decision, Lord Zi-O.

Ohma Zi-O: It is no matter. I have oversights, after all. Now, you wished to discuss how to deal with that human woman, Sebas?

Sebas: Yes, my Lord.

Ohma Zi-O: You worry that after the human was released, she would leak information about Nazarick, correct. Then after her memories are manipulated, you can give her some money and leave her a suitable place.

Demiurge: Lord Zi-O, I would believe killing her would be a more suitable way.

Ohma Zi-O: Stop. I do not want homicidal acts when they gain me nothing.

Demiurge: Understood. Well shall I put her to work at the stockyard that I see?

Ohma Zi-O: Ah, the one you put the Chimeras?

Sebas: Lord Zi-O?

Ohma Zi-O: Hmm, yes what is it, Sebas?

Sebas: If you are willing, I was thinking that I would like for Tuare to work in the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Solution looked at Sebas like he was crazy, Cocyutus grunted in surprise, Demiurge was once again not happy for this.

Ohma Zi-O: You know, I asked the same thing for Cocyutus. But Sebas, how would that benefit me?

Sebas: My Lord, Tuare can prepare meals. There are only a few people in Nazarick who can cook. I think it would be better to have others who can cook.

Ohma Zi-O: Indeed I found it too, bearing a point in consideration.

Demiurge: But can she prepare food worthy of Nazarick?

Sebas: What Tuare can cook appears to be Household Fare. If you ask whether that is worthy of Nazarick...

Demiurge: I do not think dishes such as that of Steamed Potatoes should be served at Nazarick.

Sebas: I cannot help but wondering your thinking is too hasty, Lord Demiurge. If she can do home cooking, she can also master other kinds of cooking. We should look unto the future.

Demiurge: In that case, I would like her to help out cooking at the stockyard. Making mincemeat for Abellion Sheep is an easy chore.

Sebas: I would be against that...

Demiurge: Wanna bet?

He then inserts the BeyonDriver.

BEYONDRIVER!

Sebas has the Lupin Gunner and points at Demiurge.

Sebas: Of course.

Ohma Zi-O then remembers during his days as Momonga, his teammates also arguing.

Flashback...

Touch Me: Ulbert-san, don't you remember us talking about going to get the rare from Surt, the Fire Giant Boss?

He was facing an Orange Slime, Peroronchino, and Ulbert who appears to be a Giant Bipedal Humanoid Ram that wears a Cowboy Outfit and Hat.

Ulbert: You're the one who doesn't remember, Touch-san. There are those who have to go do the Ice Dragon Hunt before they can fulfill their requirements to change class.

Touch Me: Surt's normal drop rate is lower than Dragons, so don't you think we should take care of that first?

Ulbert: Touch-san, I don't think you should act so spoiled.

Touch Me: No, you're the one who's acting spoiled, Ulbert.

The flashback ends as Sebas and Demiurge are still arguing but Cocyutus shouted. Meaning that Touch Me is Sebas creator and Ulbert is Demiurge's creator.

Cocyutus: JUST SHUT UP ALREADY! WE ARE IN THE PRESENCE OF LORD ZI-O!

Demiurge: Ah, Lord Zi-O, pardon us in carrying on in front of you!

Sebas: I am sorry you have to see us behave so foolishly.

Ohma Zi-O: Hahahahahaha! I do not mind. I forgive you. I forgive you. That's it! We could use a little bickering like this!

He kept laughing before green aura glows again.

Ohma Zi-O: Tch, inhibited huh? I would like to see this woman, Tuare. Bring her here.

Sebas: Huh? Ah... Yes, as you wish!

Moments later, Sebas closes the door as Tuare comes in, now very nervous. Ohma Zi-O then takes a closer look at Tuare.

Ohma Zi-O: You resemble her. Thanks for coming, Tuare. I have questions for you. If you speak untruthfully, we are done talking. And if I don't get the answer I want, we are done as well. Now tell me your full name?

Tuare: Tuare-- Tuareninya Veyron.

Ohma Zi-O barely hold his shock.

Ohma Zi-O: You don't say. Okay tell me, Tuareninya, is your desire to live in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, and live there? You also have the choice of me giving you a great deal of wealth, and taking it to live in a land far away from here.

Tuare: I would stay with Lord Sebas.

Ohma Zi-O: Very well.

He stands up.

Ohma Zi-O: Listen up, my servants!

The Guardians: Yes, my Lord!

Ohma Zi-O: In the name of Ohma Zi-O, Tuareninya Veyron will be henceforth, under my protection! You may be welcomed in as my guest, but what are your wishes?

Tuare: Thank you very much, but please allow me to work alongside Lord Sebas.

Ohma Zi-O: If that is your wish, so it shall be. Very well. Tuareninya shall work under Sebas as a provisional maid. At the same time, I would have Sebas removed as Team Leader, and with the Additon of the younger sister, Aureole Omega, transition to become the Pleaides. Yuri Alpha will serve as Deputy Leader. Also, inform all those in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, that Tuareninya is under the protection of the name, Ohma Zi-O, and concurrently, will be working beside them. Demiurge, do you have any objections in my decision?

Demiurge: None in the least.

Ohma Zi-O: Then to confirm, all of the sentries posted in this mansion, will return to Nazarick at once. Sebas and Solution, prepare to withdraw.

Sebas and Solution: Yes, my lord.

They bowed with Tuare bowing as well.

Demiurge: Lord Zi-O.

Ohma Zi-O: What is it, Demiurge?

Demiurge: The Abelion Sheep are Omnivores. So I would like to take this opportunity to procure a small amount of grain.

Ohma Zi-O: I see. Sebas, before you withdraw, purchase a large amount of grain, and deliver it to Demiurge for me.

Sebas: As you wish, my Lord.

Then Sebas and Tuare left.

Demiurge: Lord Zi-O? Do you recognize that girl?

Ohma Zi-O: I believe you are right. You see, you return for kindness to kindness, evil for evil. That one should make sure to pay back one's debts.

He summons a diary.

Ohma Zi-O: This is a diary of... a young girl whose older sister was kidnapped by aristocrats, and burned with fury inside.

The camera showed Kamen Rider Zi-O holding a pouch full of Ninya's Belongings.

Ohma Zi-O: This diary provided with general information and knowledge of this world tk some degree. Which makes me indebted to her. I will take the debt incurred from you, and pay it back to your sister.

The diary disappears.

Demiurge: Lord Zi-O, there is one request I would make for you. After reading the material Sebad provided, there is one place that I would like to see. Could I impose on you one more time?

Ohma Zi-O: I don't mind. You're acting for the benefit of Nazarick, aren't you? Go on ahead, Demiurge.

Demiurge: Hai, Waga Maoh.

Demiurge transforms and he flies away from the mansion.

One day later, in the morning, a horse carriage is ready for departure as Sebas is talking to Tuare.

Sebas: Solution and I are now going to acquire some grain and to pay some respects to some acquiantances.

Solution is wearing her Noble outfit again.

Tuare: Hai.

Sebas: In the meantime, keep an eye on things here, Tuare.

Tuare: Very... well... Lord Sebas...

Sebas nodded.

The scene changes to the castle as a meeting is happening to Princess Renner's Headquarters with the Blue Rose Adventurer Team.

Princess Renner: Last Night, Climb captured the Eight Fingers Slave Trade Division, Cocco Doll.

Gagaran: Not too shabby of him.

Princess Renner: As such, we should alter our plans, by launching simultaneous raids today and taking down all of the strongholds at the same time.

Lakyus: If too much time passes, it will put us in a greater disadvantage.

Gagaran: Yes, but Princess, I thought we're a bit short-handed?

Princess Renner: Which is why I'm enlisting of a Nobleman I could trust.

Climb opens the door.

Climb: I have brought them here.

The Blue Rose then looked at the...

*HEAVY METAL INTENSIFIES*

THE DOOMSLAYER!

TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES

It was Marquis Raevan and Prince Zanac following him.

Raevan: I am here in response of your summons, Princess Renner.

Prince Zanac: Yo, half-sister. This meeting sounded so interesting, so O decided to attend as well.

Princess Renner: Brother?

Princess Renner has poured a cup of tea for both his brother and Marquis Raevan.

Princess Renner: Thank you for coming, Marquis Raevan. I would like to ask for your advice.

Raevan accepted the tea.

Raevan: My advice, you say?

Princess Renner: I believe no one in the court is better verse in these matters than you are, Marquis Raevan.

Both the Prince and Marquis looked at the each other as Zanac drinks the tea and was disguisted by the taste.

Prince Zanac: This is bitter.

Princess Renner: Shall I have some fruit-infused water brought here?

Prince Zanac: Doesn't matter. The maids who serve in this palace are surprisingly fast when it comes to informing their houses, after all.

Raevan: So what is it that what would you like to speak about?

Prince Zanac: Don't ask too much. Even Marquis Raevan, one of the Six Great Nobles, and member of the Noble Faction, has his position to consider.

He puts four sugar cubes on the tea and mixes it with a Silver Spoon.

Princess Renner: I would like to ask you, as one who is secretly coordinate with the Royal Faction, if you would be the one mobilizing the soldiers?

Both Prince Zanac and Marquis Raevan looks at the Princess in shock.

Princess Renner: Ordinarily, it might have been the best to first speak to the three Great Nobles who are connected with the Royal Faction. However, one of them, Marquis Blumrush, is feeding information to the Empire is he?

Marquis Raevan: I would like to ask you just to wait a moment!

Princess Renner: You knew, right? You, who is secretly known as the opportunist's bat, all the while guilding both the Noble Faction as well as the Royal Faction, acting to make sure that the Kingdom does not collapse?

Prince Zanac looks at her in disbelief.

Princess Renner: That's why you restrict such things such that little important information makes it to Marquis Blumrush, is it not?

Prince Zanac: How do you, up here caged like a bird, know all of that?

Princess Renner: I hear a few things, and figure them out. I talk to the maids too.

She then looks innocent as Marquis Raevan couldn't believe his eyes and ears.

Marquis Raevan: What are you... a monster...?

Princess Renner just smiled.

Marquis Raevan: Understood. Let us drop all of this by pretense. Prince, you do not mind, do you?

Prince Zanac nodded.

Marquis Raevan: However, before I do, I would like to speak to the real Princess Renner.

Then Princess Renner reveals her true smile like a Yandere.

Marquis Raevan: Yes, this is better than I thought! Those eyes are the eyes I saw in you as a young child! Have you putting on an act?

Prince Zanac became truly uncomfortable at the Princess' face. Then the Princess goes back to her normal smile.

Princess Renner: I guess I have been fulfilled.

Marquis Raevan: Are you referring to Climb?

Princess Renner: Yes indeed. If coulf be wed to Climb, hmmm, while I'm at it...if I could chain him up, and keep him, so he could not get anywhere... AWAY FROM ME!!!!

Prince Zanac: EEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!

Marquis Raevan: SUBARASHI, PRINCESS! Wait a second. "Keep" him? So that means you're not in love with him?

She reveals her sadistic face to them.

Princess Renner: I am very in much in love with him! I like his eyes! I also love the way he follows me around, like a dog. *giggles insanely*

Prince Zanac: *whimpers* I'm not following at all, not at all!

Princess Renner: I'm not asking you to understand. As long as you know that I am fond with him and I am in love with him, that is enough.

Marquis Raevan: However, marrying a commoner such as... Master Climb might be...

Prince Zanac: Can't we hitch a deal? Once I ascend to the throne, I'll hitch you and Climb.

Princess Renner: Count me in!

Prince Zanac: THAT WAS FAST!

Princess Renner: From the moment you arrived, brother, I would like to bring that subject up. I also have a request for you, Marquis Raevan.

Marquis Raevan: What might that be?

Princess Renner: Marquis Raevan, you have a son, right?

Marquis Raevan: Yes, he is still only five years old.

Princess Renner: I ask that he can be my bethrothed.

Marquis Raevan: NO! YOU WOULD THINK I WOULD GIVE MY BOY TO A WOMAN LIKE YOU?!

He pants hard as the Princess is still smiling.

Princess Renner: *mind* If I ask others to do something, never do it fo free.

Marquis Raevan: P-Pardon me, your highness. *sits fown and calms down* Would you like me to tell me the reason why?

Princess Renner: I am sure you already know.

Marquis Raevan: *thinking pose* Your Highness would marry my son, but have children with Climb. My son would bear children whichever women he loved, which would you then claim as your successors. Does that sum that up?

Prince Zanac: Are you really proposing this right in front of me?

Princess Renner: Ah, would you not want to learn it later, do you?

Prince Zanac just nod his head.

(My god, a Pedophile and a Yandere Princess. Who would've thought?)

Marquis Raevan: So, I see you're going up against the Eight Fingers, are you?

Princess Renner: Yes, I would like to strike at them before they burrow underground, but I am short of soldiers.

Prince Zanac: Where would you be attacking, then?

She reveals a map of the Capital with Seven Red X Specific Marks on the Spot.

Princess Renner: These Seven Locations over here. The problem is that each of these locations is in a territory owned by a different nobleman.

Marquis Raevan: If we could uncover something that ties with the Eight Fingers, I could use it to exert pressure at the Nobles.

Prince Zanac: Barring that, we could just find something, right? It's definite where they dispose of their incriminating materials. Also, my sister, I have an important question. Our beloved brother, the First Prince, is also taking money from the Eight Fingers, right?

Princess Renner: Ah, Barbro onii-san, right?

Prince Zanac: That would be the perfect evidence to dipose of him. I'd like to include the drug division stronghold he deals with your plan.

Princess Renner: Then that would 8 places for us to raid.

Marquis Raevan: As for manpower, I will send my own guardsmen and the faction's soldiers. However, while we may have enough numbers, whether we go up against the Six Arms, which is said to the Adamantite Class, to be question. I have a request in the adventurer's guild, too.

He heard a knock on the door.

Princess Renner: He's here.

She walks to the door.

Princess Renner: This is a gentleman who can help us.

He opens the door revealing Gazef Stronoff.

Prince Zanac and Marquis Raevan: THE ROYAL HEAD WARRIOR?!!!!

Back to the mansion in the afternoon...

Solution: That took a bit of time, but we did finish arragements to transport the grain. So now we can return to Nazarick without any issues.

Sebas: Something's wrong.

He opens the door.

Sebas: TUARE! TUARE! ARE YOU THERE?!

He then looks at the living room where she is not there. He then uses his monocle to find clues.

Solution: There are a number of fresh marks around the front door's keyhole. There is a good chance that someone picked the lock.

Sebas is reading a letter as crumbles it.

Sebas: Tuare has been kidnapped, which means I'm going to rescue her. A time and place have been carefully spelled out here.

Solution: I wonder if that's the best course of action. I just mean, just before you go, we could inform Lord Zi-O. Lord Sebas, have you forgotten what his words are earlier?

Sebas: Report this to Lord Zi-O. Report him that Tuare is kidnapped, and ask what should we do about it.

The scene then changes to Ohma Zi-O's room as Albedo laughed insanely as she made lots of Ohma Zi-O plushes and dolls and she was sitting on his bed. Her comm link is beeping.

Ohma Zi-O: Albedo.

Albedo: Yes, Lord Zi-O? Is something wrong? I just got a message from Sebas, or rather Solution, and apparantly the woman that Sebas took in, Tuare, has been kidnapped. I am otherwise occupied in the moment. I need you to put together some forces to back Sebas up.

Albedo: Lord Zi-O, please permit me from folly of raising an objection, but is there any value in saving an inferior human?

Ohma Zi-O: Albedo, I promised to save Tuareninya in the name of Ohma Zi-O, is that clear? IS THAT CLEAR?! I PROMISED HER PROTECTION IN MY NAME, NO LESS! EVEN IF THEY DID NOT KNOW, THIS IS NOT ALLOWED TO STAND! Sorry.

Albedo: There is no need for such to apologize, Lord Zi-O. Your order has been received. As addition for rescuing her, I willsee that the hammer falls on those humans who would upset you!

Ohma Zi-O: Tell you what, you organize them, and Demiurge will command them onsite. Zi-O out!

Albedo: *sigh* Still, I don't understand. Ohma Zi-O... This is ridiculous.

She then grabs the Ziku Driver and the Tsukuyomi Ridewatch.

(To be Continued...)
