Arc Of Embodiment - Chapter 44
Enjoy.
…
A week after Jaune’s return, he had a very unexpected visitor in the morning before classes started, Winter Schnee. Jaune thought that she went back to Atlas after the Vytal Festival. Seeing her confused Jaune, he didn’t know why she was here, just that she asked for help.
“Winter? What are you doing here? I thought you returned to Atlas,” Jaune asked.
“I got General Ironwood’s permission for an Honourable Discharge. Then I talked with Ozpin, he offered me a teaching spot here at Beacon as a Tactics and Leadership Professor,” Winter said.
“That’s wonderful! I bet Weiss will be happy to see you more often now,” Jaune said with a smile.
“I’m happy to be able to spend more time with her as well, but I’m worried about our younger brother Whitely, he’s constantly in our father’s influence, that’s why I went to General Ironwood for help against Jacques Schnee,” Winter said.
“What did the General say?” Jaune asked.
“He was willing to help. According to the General, he’s been trying for a long time to find evidence against Jacques, that’s why when I handed the files you gave me, he was laughing and started planning for Jacques’ imprisonment,” Winter said.
“If that’s the case. Why are you asking help from me?” Jaune asked.
“After reading the files you gave me, I believe that just rotting in prison isn’t enough for every heinous crime he committed. I asked Weiss what she thinks, but she told me to ask you for help instead,” Winter said.
“Eh? What exactly do you want me to do?” Jaune asked.
“Death is too easy of a punishment for Jacques, I was hoping you can make him feel all the atrocities that he did to the Faunus people,” Winter explained.
“I see…Hmmm? That’s not hard at all, I can make something that would cause a hallucination that can make him feel pain,” Jaune said.
“You can do that?!” Winter asked in surprise. She’s never heard of such technology before.
“I can, but it may take a while to make it,” Jaune said.
“That’s fine. The general said he needed to make some preparation to make sure that Jacques could not escape anyway. He said it may take at least half a month,” Winter said.
“That’s good. It won’t take that long, but that’s even better since I will be able to make sure the device is rugged enough that it won’t break easily,” Jaune said.
“Thank you, Jaune. I need to head out, I’ll be starting my teaching position here at Beacon today, I can’t be late on my first day,” Winter said before she left Jaune’s office.
After Winter left, Jaune proceeded to continue what he was doing before she arrived and that was making an exam paper for his class. After doing that, Jaune took a shower and headed to his first class of the day, which was Glynda, Combat Class for the third year.
At the end of the day, Jaune met everyone and he was thinking about telling them that he plans to bring the girls to different worlds for their date. When they heard this, they were ecstatic. They could not believe that their first date will be in a different world, they couldn’t wait to see what the other worlds are like. The girls decided to talk with each other and guess what kind of world Jaune was planning to bring them to.
“Oooh! What do you think kind of world Jaune will bring us to see?” Ruby asked with excitement.
“I don’t know! But I hope it is a place where I can go on an adventure and hit something,” Yang said. Although her reason for being a huntress has changed, she is still a thrill seeker.
“I hope it is somewhere nice and elegant,” Weiss said.
“I don’t have any preference. As long as I can spend some alone time with him, that’s good enough,” Blake said.
“Right. Alone time. Why? So that you can perform some scenes from Ninja’s of Love with him?” Yang said teasingly which made Blake blush.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Blake feigned ignorance.
“Ooooooh! Do you think Jaune-Jaune will let me and Ren go to another world to have our date if I even have the chance to tell Ren my feelings,” Nora said.
“I’m sure he will, Nora. After all, Jaune sees you as his sister. I believe he will do whatever he can to make you happy,” Pyrrha said.
“Koneko? Can you tell us what your world is like?” Pyrrha asked Koneko.
“Well. My world is at peace most of the time, but there are times that it is highly dangerous, especially if you are a part of the supernatural,” Koneko said.
“Supernatural?” Yang asked.
“Un. Supernatural is the world of Devils, Angel, Fallen Angels and other none Human species, but Humans can be a part of the Supernatural if they are aware of its existence or are capable of wielding magic,” Koneko said.
“Wait! Magic! As in magic circle and things…And did you just say, Devils?” Nora said.
“Hmm? Don’t you know the existence of magic, I mean Jaune is capable of wielding magic, I mean according to Rias-buchou, Jaune was a very powerful magic wielder,” Koneko said.
“Oh my Oum! That explains a lot of the things that Jaune is capable of doing,” Yang said. She looked around and saw that everyone was nodding in acknowledgement besides Ruby, this got Yang’s curiosity.
“Ruby, did you know that Jaune could use magic?” Yang asked.
“I found out when we were in the other Remnant. We went to save the Summer Rose of that world and I saw how Jaune saved her using magic, he told me not to tell anyone until later. I think he was planning to tell us after we go to other worlds,” Ruby said.
“That’s…Wow…Magic seems incredible,” Weiss said.
The girls all continued talking, they even asked Koneko to continue telling them what her world was like.. The girls couldn’t wait to have a chance to visit such worlds, but they were hoping that Jaune brings them to a tamer world before bringing them to such wild worlds.
