Sorry for the long wait but I also took some time to revise the first chapter. The first chapter has been updated with different content so check it out first before reading this one. Not my best chapter but well, I hate buildups since it's mostly boring.

Chapter 2: Unexpected Meeting

"It's nice to see you all again, my friends."

There was no response to Solomon's greeting. Everyone just continue to stare at him impassively. This confuses the King of Magic as he is sure that he got it right. They should possess the memories of their time in Chaldea. Is he wrong? Did he make a mistake somewhere? He, the King of Magic made a mistake in a simple ritual?

"Areeee? You guys don't remember me?"

"…who are you?"

Arturia Pendragon asked. Solomon began to sweat as he rechecked his notebook. He's sure he got everything down right. Did he screw up something? The amount of prana maybe? No, feeding the circle more prana would strengthen them more and he only give the absolute limit he can afford without revealing himself… which is twenty times more than what a normal master could… each.

As Solomon began to panic, he suddenly hear some snickering from behind him and saw that all his friends are trying to hold back their laughter… except Karna who always look stone-faced. Solomon realized that they're just messing with him and chuckled weakly.

"You almost gave me a heart attack there, Arturia."

"Can a servant even get a heart attack?"

Chiron wondered. Everyone shared a laugh, well, everyone except Karna, who only smiled. Solomon look at all of them. Arturia Pendragon, Chiron, Karna, and Saint George, the familiar faces brought warmth to his heart. He'd love to summon Da Vinci once again but for now, this should do.

"You're all horrible, but it's good to see you all."

Solomon brought them to the living room and explain to them what happened and why they're in a different world now. He also told them that he planned to summon one more Servant, no, Emanation while the rest will be picked from this world. Everyone took in the information that he gave and understood that there's a threat as great as or greater than Goetia out there. As heroes, all of them agree to join him in his quest.

"So what are we right now? You didn't call us Servants but Emanations during your explanation. Could you elaborate on that?"

Chiron asked. Solomon nodded and began his explanation. This is the first power of his new Rings, the ability to summon or gift the power of a Ring. Apparently it is based on the Ten Sepiroth if the carving on the rings he used so far were of any indication. Each Ring represents one Emanation and there should be more that he had yet to find out. So far as he knows, the Ring could grant the summoned or gifted the body of a Grand Servant not limited by Class like the case with the Servant Classes.

For the four of them who were summoned, their body is just like his, a living body of a classless Grand Servant. They don't need a contract or prana supply to exist in this world. Even Solomon himself is a little surprised at the powerful gift he's been given. It's a powerful replacement to his original Rings and there are many more powers he had yet to figure out and Solomon knows without a doubt that his new Rings will have capabilities to match the ability to call forth 72 Demon Gods.

"That is truly powerful. But I see that you have five Rings marked already. Have you gifted someone already?"

Arturia asked, noticing that five of his Rings are marked while there are only four of them. Solomon decided to take them up to meet his student and possible apprentice.

"His name is Hyoudou Issei. Further explanation will have to wait for later when he woke up. The poor boy was duped and killed by his girlfriend, don't ask, I'll explain more later. I'm too lazy to repeat."

Solomon opened the door to Issei's room. The boy had already woken up by the time he arrived and was surprised to see someone he doesn't know appear. Then Solomon remembers that he's still in his true form. He thought about turning back to his 'Dr. Roman' form but explaining about magic and supernatural will be much easier if he uses his true form.

"Ya Issei, you're up already? I thought it'd take another hour or two."

"W-who are you?! And how do you know me?!"

Issei pointed at him but he doesn't seem nervous or scared at all.

"I saved you from that fallen angel and now you're acting so cold to me? Ohh come on."

Solomon whined.

"Really, who are you? And that thing was not a dream? Did Yuuma really killed me? then how am I arrive… are you the grim reaper?!"

Solomon chuckled and felt as if it's time to surprise him. He snapped his finger and slowly his appearance turn to someone Issei is familiar with. In a second, the form of King Solomon had been replaced by that of Dr. Romani Archman. Seeing the school nurse he's familiar with, Issei could only gape.

"Ro-ro-roman sensei?!"

"Yup, it's me, your favorite teacher. Seriously Issei, you should be careful with who you go out with. If it weren't for me, you would've died. Actually, you did die."

"Wait, that's real? And I'm really dead? Sensei, you're the grim reaper!"

Roman sighs at his student's behavior but he can't blame him. He did die and was resurrected. It would be too much to take in for a normal kid like Issei. But he need to make him understand. After all, with what he possessed, he never had a chance to live a normal life once his power is discovered.

"Looks, Issei, I will explain everything to you so just calm down and listen, okay?"

Issei nodded. Roman then took him to his living room where everyone is now gathered. Roman then start explaining about the supernatural world, this dimension's supernatural world to be precise. He starts from God and the Great War and then of the three Biblical factions. Then finally he reached the main topic of their discussion, sacred gears.

"And that is where you came in. You see Issei, you are in possession of a very powerful sacred gear dubbed as a Longinus, one of the thirteen sacred gear that are powerful enough to potentially be able to slay gods."

"…"

"You don't get any of that, do you?"

Issei shook his head. Roman sight. Issei is not the brightest student around and the topic is rather heavy so he can't really blame him.

"At least tell me what you got."

"Uhh, I get that you're saying that angels, devils, fallens, and other mythological being are real and that I have something called a sacred gear."

Just the essentials. That's good enough for now. He can always explain the details later so it's best to take things slowly while Issei's mind processed what he had just learned. Dumping everything on him in one go won't do anything good anyway. As long as he understands what he needs then that's fine.

"But… then, how did I survive? I was sure that Yuuma stabbed me!"

"Ahh that is because I saved you."

"You saved me?"

Issei look confused now. Until he got an idea in his head.

"Ohh! You're a grim reaper and you saved me because I'm your favorite student!"

Roman facepalmed at the sheer stupidity of his student. The other heroes snicker at his plight. Now he wishes he had summoned Hohenheim instead. Maybe the alchemist could make something that could boost Issei's brain power. God knows the kid needs it.

"No, I'm not the Grim Reaper, Issei. I just happen to have a power that could help you."

"Help me?"

Roman continue to explain about the dangers of the supernatural world. He suspected that if the fallens knew that Issei is still alive, they would try to kill him once again. So Roman gave him an Emanation.

"Wait a minute, what's an Emanation?"

Issei asked.

"It's a little hard to explain in words you could understand. Hmm, let's just say that I blessed you with power so you won't die easily if someone were to target you."

Issei still has more questions after that but Roman told him to go back home. He'd had enough revelations dumped onto him for one day.

The day after the summoning and his talk with Issei, Romani took a leave from school for one day. After all the work he had done, he felt like he deserved a break. And what better way to spend his break than to visit Akihabara? Together with him are Chiron and Arturia dressed in normal clothing. Well, somewhat normal. Chiron wore a simple black shirt and green hoodie and a blue pants and that is fine but Arturia is wearing a blue jacket and a gym uniform along with a cap. In short, Arturia disguise herself as Mysterious Heroine X. When asked why, she simply replies that it somehow felt natural.

Romani won't push the subject any further than that.

Karna and George have things to do so they didn't come. George decided to scout the abandoned Church at the outskirt of Kuoh while Karna would look after Issei. And then there is the matter about training Issei. But with Chiron around, he could leave that matter to the great teacher of heroes.

For now he just want to enjoy himself.

"So this is Akihabara, the place known as the holy land. Interesting. So where will you start your pilgrimage, King of Magic?"

Chiron asked. The greek teacher appears to be enjoying himself as he look around in slight wonderment at the buildings of Akihabara, a normal reaction for anyone who had never visited the 'holy land'. The King of Magic though already has an idea where to start his 'pilgrimage'.

"Why don't we split up for now? We'll meet up when its sundown right here."

He said to his two companions before running off by himself. Arturia, seeing the excited King of Magic disappearing into the crowd, look up to Chiron. The teacher sweatdropped at the sight of a legendary king acting like a child on sugar high. That can't do anything about it though. He had already disappeared. Following Romani's words, they explore Akihabara by themselves and got lost after the first few turns.

Meanwhile Romani made good use of his storage space and shop literally till he drops. The pockets of King Solomon is very deep and now it's being put to good use for buying hundreds of anime merchandise and blu-ray like there's no tomorrow. After three hours, Romani had already bought almost two hundred figma and three hundred nendroids from almost two dozen stores.

Thanks to his magical storage space, even after his massive purchase, Romani is walking down the street of Akihabara with only a box of pocky in his hand. Next he stopped in front of a store selling Gunpla. He browse through the mecha collection, impressed at the large number of variation. He knew of Gunpla but he never had the chance to buy one before.

"G-Lucifer, I wonder what the real Lucifer would think if he see this?"

Romani mused.

"Probably he will feel amused."

Romani didn't expect to hear an answer from beside him. He look to his left and found a girl leaning close to the shelves browsing Gunpla. The girl is very cute. She wears a magical girl cosplay though Romani couldn't remember from which series. He's still catching up on the numerous magical girl series. The girl is a perfect magical girl cosplayer with short stature and cute face and she even has the perfect twintail hair! It's even more perfect because she's a maou shoujo!

What? Romani would of course recognize her devilish presence and he made sure that he can identify important people in the supernatural world by face. Despite his seemingly laid back attitude, he was not made King for nothing. King Solomon's wisdom was legendary.

"Ooo! A magical girl! I'm sorry I can't tell the series. I'm still marathoning all magical girl series from the beginning."

"So you just found out about the wonderful world of magical girls?!"

"It's sad that I never had time to check on the magical girl series but now… I have awakened to something wonderful."

That was how King of Magic Solomon met Maou Serafall Leviathan… while checking out Gunpla.

And that's a wrap. Again, I will remind you guys that the first chapter has been updated so for those who just skipped and read the second chapter without checking the note I left up there, check the updated first chapter before reading, capiche? Now, I believe the Servant System has been used too many times so I use the Emanations this time. Those familiar with the Sephiroth should recognize what I'm using. This will also give more variations than just the classes we're familiar with. Emanations are different from Servant Classes, that's what I will say for now. More will be revealed in time. And for how powerful the Emanations are, they're basically Grand Servant in terms of power.

Ring of Sephiroth

1. Keter (Emanation of Crown): Karna

2. Chokmah (Emanation of Wisdom): Chiron

3. Binah (Emanation of Knowledge): ?

4. Hesed (Emanation of Kindness): Georgius

5. Gevurah (Emanation of Severity): ?

6. Tiferet (Emanation of Beauty): ?

7. Netzah (Emanation of Victory): ?

8. Hod (Emanation of Glory): Hyoudou Issei

9. Yesod (Foundation of Life): ?

10. Malkuth (Emanation of Kingdom) : Arturia Pendragon

These are the Emanations. Five more to be filled and all of them I have already decided so sorry. I'll just wrap things up here. Any questions can be left for the next chapter. Ohh and have I mentioned that Solomon will be paired with Serafall in this story?

Sorry but I won't be answering reviews for this chapter. My computer is a bastard that will lag if I connect to the internet for more than twenty minutes. I'll be fixing it soon. But rest assured that I do read reviews. I made these changes after reading some reviews about Solomon's characterization by me. Hope this is much better. Can't get 100% though.
