A Not So Evil God In Fate/Grand Order

Seth started hearing a buzzing sound and blood started dripping from his ears. All sorts of natural phenomenons started appearing in the area. Tornados descended from the lightning-filled clouds, the ground started to break apart and lava was oozing out of it.

The soldiers had retreated the moment Gilles summoned the octopus-like demon. Unfortunately, some were not able to escape the catastrophe.

"What is happening?!" Fujimaru's said in a panicked voice while being carried under Saber's arm who decided to abandon her battle with Jeanne Alter after the first monster made its presence known.

"I don't know, I've never seen anything like that before, Senpai." Mash didn't have an answer to her Master question, this was a first for her too.

"This is bad, I don't know what he did but it's like the World is rejecting it!" Dr. Roman informed the group. This was something to be worried about, whatever was the thing the black-haired man summoned was really bad news.

"This...Master is no longer providing Magical Energy?" Jeanne who had come to the same decision as Artoria worriedly said.

"It looks that way, I have also stopped receiving it since Master summoned that large beast. But that doesn't matter now, we need to get as far from her as possible." Siegfried confirmed her doubts while mounting on Georgios' horse together with the man himself.

"Siegfried is right, Jeanne. We take the risk of getting caught in the fight between those things and be meaninglessly killed." Marie supported the Dragon Slayer words, now their priority was getting to safety. Especially considering they had a normal human among them.

"Waah!! What are those things?! Puppy please save me!" Elizabeth ran to hid behind Saber who was carrying Fujimaru.

'Aren't you supposed to be the one protecting me...?' The youth awkwardly thought while avoiding the little girl's gaze.

Everyone decided to leave immediately as they felt that the staring contest the two enormous monsters were having was about to come to an end.

Meanwhile, the moment Jeanne Alter let those two girls go, she mounted a Wyvern that was flying near her location and decided to watch the battle that was about to unfold in the skies. Of course, a safe distance away.

Seth, for his part, was still suffering from that annoying sound. 'Tch. Why don't you mind your own business? It's just a damn avatar, not the real thing...' He annoyingly thought, an answer came in the form of a lightning bolt from the dark clouds above toward the Serpent's head where he was residing.

Apophis ducked its head and covered it with his dragon-like wings. When the attack touched them it disappeared without doing anything. However, it managed to anger the enormous monster.

Just as he was going to roar at the sky he received a light tap on his head. "Don't do it, you are only going to make it worse. Besides, our enemy is in front of us." Seth lightly told Apophis while focusing on the tentacle demon who wasn't moving since a while ago.

'That and the fact I can't maintain you much longer. I had to stop sending Magical Energy to the other two just for you to last five seconds more.' He added in his mind. Just summoning an avatar of an ancient God had exhausted eighty percent of his reserves and keeping him summoned was draining what he had left.

Apophis moved his four eyes upward to look at Seth for a second before complying and facing the enemy.

As if tired of waiting, the Gigantic Horror moved its tentacles like a whip toward the giant serpent who easily evaded them.

Catching one of the tentacles with his mouth, Apophis ripped a part of it off from the body of the monster and proceeded to eat it. The surprising thing was, the tentacle regenerated easily after a few seconds.

"Unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable! You blasphemous creature!" Gilles shouted inside the monster with his eyes bulging.

With faster speed this time, the tentacles started wrapping around Apophis' body. Unfazed by this, his dark scales started liting on fire burning the tentacles that were touching him. Not yet done, he caught one of them who was near one of his horns before it returned to the demon and instead of simply biting it like previously he filled his mouth with fire and then shot it toward the main body through the tentacle.

The body of the Gigantic Horror combusted but it still didn't feel any pain, it was like it didn't even feel anything except the need to destroy.

When the fire surrounding it stopped, the extradimensional being was revealed to be burnt gravely. It was now difficult to find a part of its body that wasn't black. However, with a simple shake, all black parts that covered him started falling from its body showing a fully regenerated demon.

Gilles' Noble Phantasm released a strange sound and started using his regenerated tentacles to attack the landscape in an erratic way bringing further destruction to the battlefield.

'It's not like I'm one to talk but that regeneration is annoying. I don't have much time, I should hurry up or my Magical Energy will run out.' Seth thought while looking at the rampaging monster. His dwindling reserves weren't the only thing he had to worry about, at this point the natural phenomenons were rapidly increasing in number and power.

"Apophis, go below the surface." He commanded the avatar of the Serpent God who followed his orders, folding his wings he dug underground after descending from the chaotic sky.

Seeing the disappearance of his foe, the Gigantic Horror started slamming its tentacles on the ground causing it to repeatedly crack. Still, there was no sign of Apophis or Seth.

"Coward, show yourself! I still haven't punished you for what you did to my perfect Saint!" Gilles screamed with a high pitched voice.

Jeanne Alter, who was still observing the battle from far away, released a sigh after hearing his words. "Gilles..." She knew he was doing it for her but that didn't prevent an uncomfortable feeling from surfacing.

As if to answer his provocation, Apophis shot from the ground behind him. Unfolding his wings he started coiling around the demon who was too late to react. As the monster didn't have bones, there was no point in constricting it so he simply flapped his wings and took it toward the sky.

Apophis took advantage of the continuous lightning directed at them and used it to strike their opponent.

With its body, including its tentacles, being wrapped by the gargantuan serpent, the Gigantic Horror couldn't do anything to prevent the rage of the thunderous clouds, that didn't prevent it from trying to struggle, though.

Its regeneration kept kicking in again and again but it was getting slower each time. It seemed it was going to reach its limit sooner or later.

However, none of the two had the d.e.s.i.r.e to wait that long, nor they could. "Let me show you how we do things here, stupid creature." With Seth's words, Apophis opened his mouth like he was going to devour the monster's head but instead of that, energy particles started gathering on his mouth from all around him.

As the first and second Egyptians Gods of Chaos. This destruction, this disorder, this...chaos. All of this was like being at home for them. Although his body couldn't handle receiving energy from it yet, that didn't apply to Apophis.

The Serpent God started s.u.c.k.i.n.g the energy from all around him, feeding his final attack that was gradually taking the form of a black ball with equally black lightning moving all over it from time to time.

With their energy starting to deplete, the disasters where disappearing little by little while Apophis' attack was growing stronger by the second.

The Black Saint sensing the danger was going to order the Wyvern to retreat but the beast beat her to it, a creature that relied on instinct the most was well aware of the incoming demise that would occur to it if it didn't leave from this place.

The giant monster suddenly stopped its struggle, like it had given up and surrendered to its fate. Gilles, who was inside the monster, looked up to see what to him looked like a blinding white light. His eyes widened and tears started falling from his big eyes. "God...?"

In synchrony with Gilles' words, Apophis released his attack. The dark ball transformed into a beam that obliterated the creature he was trapping, together with the Caster Servant.

The attack didn't stop there, though. It hit the ground creating a massive explosion in the form of a dome that rapidly expanded to all sides.

The Wyvern that had retreated was caught up in the explosion and with it, Jeanne. The dome only stopped when it reached five kilometers in radius.

Once the attack was over, a deep and enormous crater was the only thing left on the previous battlefield. In its center, Apophis was seen with his almost destroyed wings covering his head, some parts of his body were completely destroyed to the point that the bones could be seen.

He stayed still for a few seconds before removing his wings from the top of his head to reveal a safe and sound Seth albeit a little pale.

"Thanks for protecting me, also for the help. I'm at my limit so I will stop the summoning." He said breathing a little faster than normal.

Apophis merely nodded, closing its eyes it actually spoke to him through his mind. 'It's nothing. Sadly, the next time we see each other again we will be enemies. Take care of yourself until then, brat.'

Seth's eyes widened. "You! How?!" He may not be able to feel or sense things as good as before but he was sure the one under him was just an avatar, it wasn't supposed to talk much less have a will of its own.

Apophis didn't respond, opening his mouth he extended his tongue to the top of his head bringing with it a golden chalice, the Holy Grail.

Seth caught it but his gaze was still focused on the Serpent God. However, he still didn't get an answer and even before he cut the summoning, Apophis stopped it by himself.

He got safely to the surface after falling from the sky. Now that he was gone, Seth's Magical Energy started recovering itself slowly but surely.

"What do you mean enemies...?" He asked to the now gone Apophis after releasing a sigh.

With nothing trying to break the 'natural order', the world returned to normal. Seth started running out of the crater when he noticed a barely conscious Jalter along the way. Her body was badly burnt and she was missing an arm and a leg.

"Sorry about that kid, we went all out with that attack." He slowly said while walking toward her. She didn't respond as she couldn't hear him.

He shook his head seeing her like this. "Just sleep, everything will be over soon." His spear materialized, grabbing it he pointed the tip at her c.h.e.s.t before thrusting down.

The pain made her regain a little lucidity, enough to say thank you before fading in yellow light. Seth observed her disappearing body for a few seconds and then walked away. "I don't think I deserve to be thanked after playing with your mind but I will accept it anyway."

It wasn't long until he managed to reunite with the others who were glad that he was alright and that finally, everything was over.

"I'm glad you are alright, Master. Although I'm surprised you could summon a monster like that." Siegfried welcomed Seth with a smile, same as everyone else except for two blonde girls who wanted certain answers.

"That was scary but at the same time awesome." Fujimaru said with a hint of excitement after the panicking face ended. Boys his age always liked this sort of stuff after all.

"I thought we were going to die though, it looked like the world was ending even without those two monsters doing anything." Amadeus commented from the side.

"Tch, the devil looks after his own." Saber said while cl.i.c.k.i.n.g her tongue with an annoyed expression.

Just as she finished saying that, everyone started fading. "It seems we are returning." Mash noticed after looking to her and the rest dissipating bodies.

St. George turned to look at Siegfried. "It was a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e fighting alongside you, I hope we can do it again someday." They had become good friends by the looks of it.

"Likewise." The Dragon Slayer replied with a smile.

"Make sure you summon me next time, Puppy. I will be waiting!" Elizabeth happily said to Fujimaru who again avoided her gaze. "Uhh...sure..." He replied with sweat falling from his forehead.

"You are going to summon me too, right?" Kiyohime asked Seth who had his hand on her face preventing the girl with the kimono from invading his personal space. 'Where does this girl come from?' He thought with annoyance on his face.

Marie remembered a promise she had made with Jeanne but decided to not bring it up. She looked at the Saint who had her hands on her c.h.e.s.t wanting to say something but not having the courage to. Smiling, she gave a nod of encouragement to her.

Nodding back at Marie, Jeanne took a deep breath before asking Seth. "Master, what happened to the other me?"

"Dead." Was the simple answer she got. She wanted to ask him about the words her altered version had said previously but even with Marie's support, she couldn't do it. Every time she was going to ask about it, an unknown fear took over her like she didn't want to know the answer.

"I see... Then, don't forget the promise you made to me. I hope you summon me so you can fulfill it..." She looked sideways as blush slowly made its way to her cheeks. She lacked the confidence to be direct so she chose a somewhat more roundabout way.

Marie helplessly smiled seeing this but she knew even her indirect words took everything from her.

Seth sighed internally, he made a mental note to not make promises just for the sake of getting rid of people's pestering.

"I will see what I can do." Was the answer she got but with the little she knew him. Jeanne felt it was enough.

One by one everyone returned to either the Throne of Heroes or Chaldea. The Singularity was finally resolved, now the only thing they could do was wait until the next one showed up.
