I Just Want To Abuse My Power 29 (Patreon)

"Master... There must be a misunderstanding here." She puts a hand on Sakura's shoulder. "Yes, perhaps due to nervousness you are failing to communicate correctly with me." Is this is what they call denial.

Sakura pouts. "I-I'm not! Please listen to what I have to say, Saber!" Ah, I have a feeling my poor Kouhai got the hardest Servant to handle. It's certainly a big responsibility, but try your best!

Saber shakes her head. "I understand that this is a... big moment, marching onto war can be quite stressful after all, so please take a deep breath and calm yourself down, Master." Well, if nothing else Arthur over here is trying her best.

She then looks at me. "Young man, please explain the situation to me. It seems my Master will be out of it for a certain while." I think you're the one who's out of it, considering you went super hard into denial.

I nod, playing along. "Sure... But first things first, are you Arthur Pendragon, or did we mess up the summoning?" Please don't tell me we messed up the summoning...! This bitch better not be Jeanne D'arc or whatever.

She breathes a sigh of relief, since I didn't argue back she must think her denials were correct. "Yes, I am King Arthur. Your summon was successful young man." Awesome, so far pretty much every summoning has gone well, but it always makes me nervous anyways.

I send her a thumbs up. "Good to know. My name is Yato Shibata by the way, and the nervous girl over there is Sakura Matou." Who is sending me a puppy eyed look begging for forgiveness.

As if I would get mad at my Kouhai for not being able to convince a king she should become a sex slave in five seconds. Oh well, I suppose some people are just extra harsh on themselves.

Saber's eyes widen. "Matou...? But this place-." She shakes her head. "No, that doesn't matter. Could you please inform me what Master meant when she mentioned Cleopatra and a goddess?"

"Sure. So basically Illyasviel Von Einzbern summoned Cleopatra, an Assassin. And Rin Tohsaka summoned Skadi, a goddess, and a Caster." Technically her name is Scáthach=Skadi, but whatever.

Saber makes a thinking pose. "And considering you know their true names... An alliance between the three great families has formed, hasn't it?" In a manner of speaking. "But to think the Tohsaka's would summon a goddess of all things. I assumed she's weakened." I nod.

And she continues. "Very well, this should be advantageous to me. I don't fear Cleopatra, and against a Caster I hold the natural advantage due to my class skills." She clenches her fist. "And my output is at a maximum, I have enough mana being provided." And I'm starting to feel it.

It's not uncomfortable or anything, but differently from when it was just Cleopatra and Skadi, I do notice something slowly leaving my body. I guess having three Servants is when a Campione starts to notice a drain.

Hopefully this will be alleviated once the war actually starts, but... at this point the war has basically started and the grail hasn't done anything. This might be a case of the Holy Grail just fucking me over since I'm cheating.

But if I'm cheating, I might as well reap the rewards. "By the way Saber..." It's time to take her denial, and stab it until it's dead. Metaphorically speaking of course, I can't kill the concept of denial just yet.

"What is it Yato?" She sounds so innocent, like a knight who thinks she just has been summoned to a good old murder competition.

Alas, we all need to grow up eventually. "There's no alliance between the three families, so please don't misunderstand what I have been saying." I don't know how I should go about this. Do I do it fast or slow?

She raises an eyebrow. "What are you... Oh, I understand. Worry not, I am aware that this is but a temporary arrangement until the rest falls. I shall not hesitate when it's time to cut down my enemies." That's cool, and all, but...

I shake my head. "That's not what I meant, it's just that... Well, Sakura was telling the truth. She's my concubine, together with Rin, Illya, and their Servants." And also a bunch of other people, but let's not overwhelm this poor king.

She rolls her eyes. "In my age men joking about matters such as sex was rather common. I see nothing has changed. Please don't say that when we are near these people however, mages can be rather prideful." Your denial might be stronger than a Campione.

I sigh. "That's now what I meant Arthur... Actually, is your name really Arthur?" I guess it doesn't matter, but I don't wanna be rude. "Like... are you a guy or a girl?" I wanna say girl, but you never know.

Sakura interjects. "D-definitely girl, Senpai! Just like Skadi and Cleopatra!" This poor Kouhai is still scared of being seen as inferior I see. Hopefully that will stop once I'm fucking Saber... if Saber is a guy.

Saber's eye twitches. "I don't see why it matters, but I was named Artoria at birth, and later on my name was changed to Arthur due to my ascension as king." Okay, but which one do you like it more? "And as for my gender... think not about it. I'm a tool, and that's all that matters."

"Oh, you're an it them!" I thought it would be a he, or a they, but I'm not judging! I do not wish to be seen as wrong by my future descendants! Man, so many Servants must be confused by modernity...

Saber grits her teeth. "I... it's not that I'm literally a tool..." Oh, I get it, you just identify as one. Which is totally cool and okay in the year we found ourselves in. "It's that I do not care about gender. Call me whatever you wish."

Sakura smiles. "Than you're a she! And you're Artoria! Because Senpai likes girls!" You know me so well my adorable Kouhai...

I think Saber might be genuinely considering killing Sakura and ending it all. "Sure!? Why does it matter!?" Because I'm not gay! I can have sex with a she, a they, and a it, but not a he! "I fail to see how any of this relates to the Holy Grail!"

I wave her off. "It really doesn't, but I gotta know these things, since you're now my concubine and all." She looks like she's about to explode, but before she can talk, I continue. "Oh, and I mean what I say by the way."

"Right now I command a big part of the war, not because I care about some dumb wish, but because Heroic Spirits are cute. It goes without saying, but you're cute too, so you're part of my harem now." Please tell me that killed her denial.

She takes a step back. "That's... the three great families would not allow the Grail to be defiled in such a way." Yeah, she's definitely taking me seriously now. "Master, please end this joke already and-" Sakura cuts her off.

"It's not a joke Saber, so please stop embarrassing me in front of Senpai already!" Oh, Sakura is getting mad now. "When I learned I would summon the Servant Senpai was looking forward to the most I was really happy you know? But so far you have only caused trouble!"

Saber finally accepts reality. "You are serious..." Shock slowly spreads across her face. "You... you really summoned me so I could act as a cheap whore to your lover..." Considering you are eating my mana, you are a very expensive whore.

She then glares at me. "And you! Who are you!?" Something appears on her hands. It's concealed by wind, supposed to be invisible, but my instincts warn me of it. "A Dead Apostle!? A mage as foul as Morgan!?"

Those are certainly... assumptions, sadly they are completely wrong. "Nope. I'm a Campione actually..." I then remember that Servants don't know what Campione are, which means I will have to explain myself.

To my surprise however, Saber's face becomes completely pale. "No." Does she know what I am after all? "Oh no... I... There's no way one of your maniacs have decided to turn the Holy Grail War into a brothel!" Yeah, she definitely knows what a Campione is.

But how though...? Or maybe... maybe I was wrong about Servants not knowing about Campione. Sure Cleopatra and Skadi didn't know about it, but Assassin could be the exception, not the rule, while Skadi is from another universe. I guess I'll find out when I manage to summon Hakuno's Servant.

For now, I need to correct her misconception. "I'm not treating the Holy Grail War like a brothel. You Heroic Spirits aren't prostitutes!" Just the thought of such a thing makes me depressed in fact.

"You Heroic Spirits are my concubines, which is very different. For example, it doesn't cost money, and you guys only have sex with me." It's more like a girlfriend when you really think about it!

Saber seems dumbfounded by my very understandable logic. "I... I have no intention of obeying a man who cannot bed a woman without using force."

I blush. "H-hey, I'll have you know a really cute foreigner girl asked me out today!" Her face tells me she doesn't believe me. Maybe I should have recorded that moment so I could always have proof!?

Sakura interjects. "I-I would totally bed Senpai even if he didn't use force!" There you go! Sure, I did use force, but she said it wasn't necessary! So Saber is wrong, and I'm right, as the universe intended.

I point at Saber. "Besides, weren't you saying I should think of you as a tool!? There you go, I'm thinking of you as a tool for sex! Actually I'm even sort of upgrading you, since concubines have more rights than tools!" I'm the kindest man alive.

She waves my finger away. "When I said tool I meant as in a weapon for war, not one for debauchery." Well, you should have clarified earlier.

Mana bursts out of her body, shaking the room. "But enough about this... I understand I have no chance against one of your kind, but I rather die than follow you." Yikes, the worst she can say is no, am I right?

Sakura's Command Seals flash red. "Saber I orde-" But that's no good.

So I interrupt her. "Don't use it Sakura, it won't have much of an effect anyways." Magic Resistance and all. "Besides... I mean, there's no way I can turn down a fight with King Arthur of all people." This is part of why I wanted to summon her.

Saber wordlessly rushes forward, there's a sudden burst of speed coming from her, shaking the room yet again, and even knocking Sakura backwards. This burst launches Saber in my direction like she's a cannonball.

I simply step sideways, and Saber crashes against the wall, breaking it and falling down. "Wow, she's actually decently fast." Even if I just dodged that as if it was a cartoon. "Anyways, are you okay Sakura?" Before anything I should check my concubine.

She nods. "Y-yeah, I'm fine." She sounds a bit disoriented, but she's beginning to get up, so I'm sure she's being honest. Or at least it wasn't anything too serious.

I grin. "Well, time to discipline the new kid." In the end the reason I have a harem is my raw power, as Saber pointed out. So now it's time to walk the walk and fight my way into acquiring a new girl.

I jump through the hole Saber made, falling into some sort of empty area. We are still technically inside the castle grounds, so maybe this is a garden of some sort? I don't really get rich people, even if I'm rich too.

"So how are gonna go abo-" She cuts me short, and by that I mean she dashes forward and tries taking my head with one clean slice of her invisible sword. I'm forced to duck in the end.

I'm guessing Saber isn't the type to banter, and that's fine, normally in a fight between equals I'm against it too. It's just that she's not my equal, she's clearly inferior to me, and by a lot.

Still, there is a lot I could learn from her fighting style, and I don't have a weapon to counter attack, so I suppose for now I will simply dodge and observe. I could call my authority as well of course, but that's a bit of overkill.

As we fight, I clearly notice something peculiar. "I wonder if I could do that with my authority..." Saber is actually fairly weak, but she's constantly using bursts of wind to make herself stronger...

Eventually I tire of dodging, and I decided to fight back. I wait for my opening and land a punch on Saber's gut. "First blow." It's not exactly a good one, I'm not a boxer, but a Campione's raw strength is still immense.

Which is why Saber kneels over. "Argh...!" She's desperately trying to breathe. I didn't even know Servants needed to do that! Or maybe it's just a instinct kept from their past lives? Either way my punch was better than I expected.

I sigh. "You know, recently things have been getting really violent..." I hurt Hakuno for her accidental thievery, and now I'm fighting Saber too... Well, it should be fine this time at least, since Saber is a warrior.

Suddenly I hear steps coming from behind me. I turn around to see... Illya and her maids running towards me. "Oh, hey!" Saber takes this opportunity to try and kill me again, but my instincts warn me and I dodge.

Illya is panting. "Yato... what happened?" It's a bit of a funny sight, because while her and Sella looks absolutely dead, Leysritt looks just fine. Some people need to exercise more...

I laugh. "Ah, you know how it goes! Saber here is acting like a tsundere or whatever!" I'll make her obey me soon enough! Somehow... I haven't really thought about the exact specifics to be honest.

Maybe I could break her sword? That would certainly stop her from fighting, but I have a feeling it's easier said than done for this case. How durable is a Noble Phantasm anyways? Can it even be broken?

Saber seems taken aback. "Illyasviel...?" She's staring at Illya with awe and... a bit of sadness too. "How are you still so young?" She's not young, she's just small. I mean, she is young compared to Skadi or something, I guess.

Illya raises an eyebrow. "Oh? That's interesting..." Why do I have a feeling something important is happening here? Something that is completely going over my head? "So she's resisting being your concubine, Yato?"

I don't even get a chance to respond, since Saber does it for me. "Of course I am! Don't tell me you are okay with this state of affairs, Einzbern!?" And suddenly she's talking really differently from before.

Illya shrugs. "I don't know, I have been pretty happy lately. I imagine grandpa is pissed, considering I've deviated from his plans quite a bit, but I can't say no to a Campione, and neither can he." And neither can Saber!

I smile. "I'm glad you're happy Illya! Anyways, any tips about how to handle Saber?" I'm still a bit lost. I guess I could do the same thing I did with Skadi? Differently from the goddess though, Artoria doesn't seem to be interested in marriage.

Saber gets ready to dash into combat again. "I cannot simply be handled!" I was handling you pretty well just now though. I just have to convert all that fight energy into sex energy!

Illya puts a hand on her chin. "I don't know Yato, you're the expert here..." Ah, that's true. I mean, Illya wouldn't ask me for magecraft tips, so I can't exactly ask her for help in this. "Have you tried Command Seals?"

I shake my head. "Nah, but Saber would probably resi-." I'm suddenly attacked by the Servant, but it's okay, since I dodge. "Resist them anyways, right?" I'm confident I can hold a conversation with Illya while I fight.

And that's exactly what I do. Dividing my attention between Saber's furious blows, and Illya's cute voice. "You're right. Maybe try knocking her out and we can figure something out later?" Um...

I slap Saber's sword away. "You just gave me an idea Illya!" And then I slap it away again. And again. And again... "You think Skadi could like... build a rape dungeon or something?" Well, it would be a consensual dungeon, 'cause concubines and all.

"Stop talking as if I'm not here!" Saber lowers her sword as if thunder was falling, I dodge to the side and kick her in the ribs, sending her flying away. I also don't really get what she's talking about, I mean, I'm right here.

Illya smiles. "I'm sure she could Yato! I mean, she is a goddess." There is shock in her eyes... and also in her maids eyes. Are they surprised I'm knocking Saber around so easily?

I look up. "That's good then, even if I don't want to be known as a kidnapper." I already did that with Hakuno after all. "Well, I'll probably think of something cool, but for now I need to contain Saber!" Knights are made for rape dungeons anyways.

I dash forward, and appear behind her. "Legendary anime chop go!" I try the same move I used on Hakuno, which probably isn't helping the whole kidnapper reputation I might or might not be developing.

"Ouch!?" Sadly my anime chop didn't work this time, and so Saber is mostly holding her own neck while looking very confused. "W-what are you trying to do!?" Isn't it obvious?

I stammer. "S-sorry, I'm just trying to knock you out so I can figure out who to break your mind later, but I'm sort of bad at this so... Anime chop!" I try my legendary technique another time.

And it fails another time. "S-stop! Are you mocking me!? Is that it!? Do you think me so weak I'm not even worthy of your effort!?" No, I just really, really suck at this. Apparently.

I nod. "Yeah, I mean, I'm leagues ahead of you." I will take this free out she has given me. "Third time it's the charm!" And so I deliver another anime chop, deciding that if it fails again I'm killing myself.

She falls down unconscious. "Oh, I'm so glad..." I need to keep in mind that Servants are tougher than humans, and therefore harder to kidnap than them as well.

I then look at Illya and her maids. "By the way, for all intents and purposes this never happened okay? It worked on the first time okay?" I will end this reality if she disagrees.

There's a big grin on her face. "Sure! Anyways, I guess I'll prepare for us to home." Right, I did everything I wanted to accomplish here already.

Now I just need to figure out how I will convince Saber that a life as a concubine is better than a life as a jobber.

AN: I thought about having Yato, and only Yato, calling Saber by Altria btw, but then I realized that was too much even for me.
