[...]---[...]POV: Roman Torchwick

I liked to consider myself a "Coward with purpose."

For so people, calling oneself a coward was an insult, but for , it was a complint, especially because I wasn't just a coward; I had a purpose.

There were fights and then there were fights; the ones I could simply run away from and avoid, I liked those. I was good at running. And then there were the fights I could run from, but shouldn't, for one reason or another. Those I faced as best I could, but I faced them.

Being a coward was running from everything, even fights you couldn't run from.

Being a "Coward with purpose" was running from the fights that could be avoided and fighting in the fights you needed to fight.

I was the latter, or at least I tried to be, and I had taught Neo to be that way too. So, I was irritated with her for simply showing up in front of that... guy. I guess that's a good way to put it.

I hesitated to call Devas a monster. He didn't act like one; he was very human. From what I could see of the guy, he was the kind of person who, if soone asked for help, he would try to help... That worried .

This kind of person existed in only two scenarios: either they were very innocent, truly good and kind, soone who would be taken advantage of and still wouldn't care. A "white knight," so to speak. A hero...

Soone who only appeared in fairy tales.

And then there was the second type, soone who wasn't good for the sake of being good, wasn't naturally good, but constantly polished themselves to be, imposing rules upon themselves to maintain that goodness for one reason or another.

This second type worried . Devas worried .

Cinder was soone who frightened . Her Semblance was ridiculous, but even when she threatened , placing her hand over my heart and making that sa hand glow in a bright orange, a second away from turning to dust, I didn't feel as much horror...

"Explain yourself."

Two words were all it took for to know I was going to die.

Everything that composed the great and handso thief Roman Torchwick scread that I was already dead; all I had to do was stay silent and wait, maybe death would be quick if I did.

But I couldn't stand still.

Even as my body trembled, my soul scread in horror, my Aura retreated in fear, my Semblance, which I didn't know I had until today, shrank.

I was a coward; I would run if I were alone...

A voice that seed to co from the shadows around whispered that I wouldn't stand a chance of running.

...But I wouldn't do that; I had a purpose.

Neo was standing next to the being who spoke those words. I couldn't leave her there.

So, I moved.

Devas didn't scare , no... He terrified , him and the red blood veins in his Aura...

[...]

It only took a short conversation, and minutes later, we were on the edge of the Erald Forest with Neo and the blonde, Red's sister, fighting.

I thought I would need to collect the favor he owed , but I didn't have to. I didn't know if that was good or not, but at least I knew things were settled.

If he said he would let Neo and the blonde handle it, I believed him, even though my life experience told otherwise.

The blonde was going to lose.

"Yang is going to lose," Devas spoke as if he were reading my thoughts. For the siblings, I hoped not. "Neo is a bad matchup for her."

"Why?" Red asked, her silver eyes shining innocently and relaxed, the sa with the other two, the one in white and the kitty.

Even brat one and brat two were relaxed, accompanying us to "See the blonde get her ass kicked by the multicolored bitch."

Maybe only I saw the shadows moving, the blood-red veins... Or maybe I was the only one with survival instincts here.

I was sure it was the latter.

"Neo fights based on illusions, quick and agile strikes, interspersed because of her Semblance. Physically, Yang is stronger, even with Aura involved, more resilient too, I would say, but Neo is faster, more agile, and experienced. Yang won't hit her if she keeps it up."

Devas explained, his eyes moving quickly following the blonde and the 'air's movents.

And he said he couldn't see Neo, funny joke.

His analysis was correct. As talented as these four brats were for their age, I would admit, they were still students and had as much experience as my pinky finger.

Neo and I had been fighting to survive since early on, Neo even earlier than . Neo was playing with the blonde at the mont, and that was with her holding back, not attacking to kill, which was her specialty... At least I hoped so.

Don't kill us both, Neo!

I stopped paying attention to the conversation beside and turned to the fight. I had trained with Neo long enough to know how she would act when she didn't want to kill soone.

Even if so of those spars got way too dangerous for my taste, especially the one after I forbade her from eating ice cream after the third box.

A strike to the shoulder from behind, a thrust, followed by two to the lower back and a sweep.

The blonde reacted quickly to the first strike, barely dodging to the side. Neo gave up on the other two and continued with a kick, not a sweep. From the look of pain on the blonde's face, it seems she found out Neo's heels had blades.

Aura could cushion the blow, but not all of it. Neo knew where to hit to make it hurt more.

The blonde retaliated, a punch that hit Neo's smiling face, which shattered like broken glass. Neo was nowhere to be seen.

The blonde didn't stop attacking, not the air this ti, but the ground. A punch that created a small crater in the forest floor and sent pieces flying in various directions.

So hit Neo, who appeared with a sound of shattering glass. The blonde wasted no ti and flew towards her, her hair shining like flas.

She was faster. Neo noticed that too and managed to react in ti to dodge her second punch, not the bullets from the gauntlet weapon, but nothing that caused much damage.

She was stronger too. The second crater she opened in the ground was larger than the first, the debris flew farther too, but this ti without hitting Neo.

"Tsk..." The blonde's eyes glead in aggressive red, but she didn't move and raised her guard. Smart.

"It's kinda fun to watch when this bullshit fighting style isn't being used against . Semblance Bullshit..." Brat one said amused, brat two agreed.

I didn't know if they were talking about Neo or the blonde, they had already lost to both from what I knew. The number of tis I heard them complain was more than I really liked, which is to say, any tis above zero.

But there was sothing I agreed with them on. Semblances were bullshit.

But I couldn't complain much anymore since now I had an idea of how to access mine, thanks to the scare my friend here gave ... I'll keep complaining anyway.

The blonde tried the sa debris trick a few more tis, changing the force of the punches and kicks to try to catch Neo. It worked again by luck, but no more after the second.

The problem was the rocks that flew in our direction. I almost threw my body backward to dodge before they simply vanished into thin air.

From the way only I, brat one, and brat two reacted, while Devas and the other three didn't, it must have been one of them who made the rocks disappear.

I knew Red's and the kitty's Semblances more or less, White's wasn't hard to figure out either, the Schnees weren't very private about how "superior" their family's Semblance was. They didn't give many details, but it was enough to know that maybe it was her.

It was either Schnee or Devas then, which of the two I didn't know, well, not that I would ask.

The "fight" lasted a few more minutes, with Neo attacking the blonde here and there with kicks, thrusts, and quick strikes, while the blonde tried to defend herself and counterattack without much success.

If I were to guess, I would say Neo's Aura was at about seventy percent, maybe more, and the blonde's was less than half at this point. As Devas said, the blonde was stronger and more resilient, but that mattered little if she couldn't land a single punch.

The blonde seed tired too, her guard was dropping, even her hair looked like hair and not yellow fire anymore. This will end soon.

As I imagined, after two hits, the blonde's arms practically gave way, holding a guard for so long while receiving attacks must tire more than she expected. Neo didn't miss the opportunity and struck-

"Gotcha, bitch!"

The blonde, who previously seed tired, smiled almost cruelly and punched at the sa instant Neo attacked her, her hair glowing like fire again. She didn't even try to defend herself, simply choosing to punch as hard as she could and letting her Aura take the damage.

It worked partially, the blonde's Aura pulsed and flickered, just before shattering where Neo attacked her with the tip of the parasol, just below her right shoulder. The blonde had either run out of Aura or lost control of it at that spot.

Neo's parasol tip caused a cut where it hit, shallow, about an inch, maybe two. I heard Red's and the other blonde's team partners' sighs when the blood splattered into the air.

The cut would have gone a bit deeper if it weren't for the punch that hit Neo's stomach, sending her flying backward and colliding with a tree.

The sound of shattering glass didn't occur, that was the real Neo... Well, damn, it looks like I underestimated this brat.

From the way Neo's eyes blinked between brown and pink, alternating with doubt, surprise, pain, and a bit of anger, she did too.

Neo got up calmly, or at least to the others, I knew she was in pain, she was just good at hiding it. That punch must have taken a good chunk of her Aura, the impact must not have been light either.

The mont Neo smiled, a slight smile that I knew, I started to get worried. I didn't have ti to shout before Neo disappeared, returning to the fight the mont she steadied her steps.

The blonde didn't back down and raised her guard, ignoring the blood flowing from her shoulder. The red gleam in her eyes was enough for to know she didn't want to stop the fight either.

Unfortunately for them, fortunately for and my ntal and physical health, Devas was against this idea. I realized this when he simply disappeared from my side and reappeared between the blonde and the "air," holding the forr by the wrist and the "air," which shattered, revealing Neo's parasol.

Then he kicked the air just above Neo's head.

The three seed surprised, with the man's appearance, the blonde, Neo, and the woman with black hair wearing the white and red mask that had just co out of a portal that appeared out of nowhere and attacked Neo with a red katana.

Wait, what?!

The woman with the mask reacted quickly, changing the strike toward Devas's foot, between the katana and a human foot in a regular sneaker, protected by Aura or not, I would bet on the katana.

Devas didn't.

The collision between the foot and the katana resulted in Devas's Aura flickering and pulsating in gray, the red veins not appearing anywhere this ti, as for the katana, it resisted about a second before cracking and bursting into flas, sending the masked woman flying away.

Good thing it wasn't a real bet, I would have lost...

[...]

POV: Devas Asura.

I was expecting a lot of things, but so random asshole popping out of a portal and attacking Neo wasn't one of them. Why Neo of all people? Revenge? I wouldn't be surprised.

The question was: was this woman Cinder? The characteristics didn't match what I had seen in the information before. This woman was taller, had longer hair, and the body, even hidden by clothes, was fuller.

The magic pulsating from her also had a different "scent" than what I had sensed before...

Another Maiden, great, and one that I had no fucking clue who she was...

I pulled Neo and Yang behind the mont I felt the mana inside the Ōdachi start to beco volatile as the blade cracked, and I pulled my armor onto my body.

"Boom!"

I focused my senses even amidst the flas and explosion on the woman. Any being who could teleport was a pain in the ass to deal with, at least hers didn't seem instantaneous like Grongir's.

"Do you know her?" I asked Neo without looking away from the masked woman.

She had landed easily after the explosion and stood up. Even without seeing her face, I knew she was surprised, now whether it was because I reacted to her attack, I had mana, or the Bone Helm on my face I couldn't tell.

She was scared of sothing too.

I could feel Neo's hands moving quickly thanks to the VoidBag, the response was: "No. I've never seen that bitch in my life."

Yang's response surprised .

"I do. Her na is Raven Branwen." Her voice was surprised, even angry, and sothing told it wasn't from Neo. "The woman who gave birth to ." No, not mother. I instantly realized.

I knew little about Ruby and Yang's family, I never delved deep, they didn't want to talk about it either, the little I knew was that they were half-sisters and that their mother had died, Sumr Rose.

Yang didn't consider this woman her mother anymore, not anymore at least.

"Raven, isn't it?" I rhetorically asked the woman, my voice echoing with nightmare energy. This seed to infuriate her even more.

I could see her muscles tense, feel her anxiety rising along with the mana growing more violent by the second. Fuck...

I sent my thoughts to the axe on Ruby's back.

("Lucy, repeat my words: I want you to get out of here, the woman has magic. I don't know how dangerous she is or how destructive the battle will be.")

Lucy didn't disappoint and repeated the phrase word for word.

Raven had almost as much magic as , losing out slightly, but I didn't know how she would use it. I wasn't really a mage, my mana was more for fortifying myself and creating items with Mystic Symbols and Runes than any real attack, sothing I needed to fix quickly.

Grongir had less mana than at this point, and his fireball had destroyed about twenty ters when it exploded earlier, if Raven knew what she was doing and attacked , things would get ugly fast.

I didn't like my chances of fighting her while holding back enough to not kill her, and at the sa ti protecting everyone behind .

Like it or not, she was still Yang's "mother," I didn't think she would be happy if I killed the woman, even if she was angry at her... I didn't want to risk it.

"We're not going anywhere." Yang almost growled the words. The other three didn't move either.

Fuck, I knew this would happen...

An arm then, I'll just rip Raven's arm that's holding the sword and knock her out while she's in pain. At least she wouldn't be dead.

I was confident in doing this without her reacting if I used all my speed. I'll even pull her sword into the inventory, even if she resists, that should make her dizzy too.

I tensed my muscles slightly and left my right hand slightly open to grab Houtengeki at any mont. If necessary, I would pull out my second racial trait too, I didn't have the luxury of hesitating here and letting a fight break out.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?" Before I moved, Raven asked. Her voice was muffled by the mask. "Are you a pawn of the queen?"

I could feel her eyes wandering behind , towards Yang and Ruby. Worried? Maybe...

"I serve no one. I'm here because Yang wanted to settle sothing with Neo. I'm a new professor at Beacon." I spoke without the "echo" in my voice. This seed to make her tense before and explained so things.

If I could resolve it in conversation, I would. Risking Ruby, Wiess, Yang, and Blake in a battle against soone I didn't know what she could really do was sothing I would avoid at all costs.

ntioning Yang made Raven tense for a mont, at least more tense than she already was; dropping the na of Beacon didn't seem to help much.

Raven didn't have ti to respond to ; my phone decided to ring at that mont, only I could hear the sound because it was inside the Voidbag.

"I'm kind of busy here, Ozpin." I answered the call without taking my eyes off Raven. The wizard's na didn't seem to make her very happy. "Did Winter fill you in on the news?"

"Yes. Can Raven hear ?" The man's voice inquired.

"No, not unless I want her to." A peculiarity of the phone, quite handy. "Do you want to put it on speaker?"

"I would appreciate it, but first, Qrow is running in your direction, he should arrive in five minutes." Raven was his sister, wasn't she?...

"I'll put you on speaker." I said and switched the phone for Raven to hear Ozpin. "She can hear you now."

"Raven. I would say it's a pleasure to speak with you again, but I don't think that matters to you right now."

"Insightful as always, Ozpin." Her voice dripped with sarcasm, almost acidic. "Who is this abomination in front of ? Your and the queen's lost child? Your secret weapon?"

Rude. Just because my mask reeks of Grimm doesn't an I'm their offspring, or whatever Salem is. Team RWBY also didn't seem to appreciate her words much. Even though I hadn't explained everything I knew about Salem, they knew the basics.

"Devas is a friend and guest of Beacon, and I can assure you that neither 'she' nor I have any relation to him." Ozpin's voice remained calm, ignoring Raven's sarcasm and acidity.

She beca less tense with the confirmation that I wasn't Ozpin and Salem's offspring, but she didn't even relax her guard.

"Friend or pawn? No, don't answer, it doesn't matter, and I certainly don't want to know." Raven replied without averting her gaze from , and she swung the Ōdachi, tossing the rest of the broken blade away and sheathed the hilt back.

The blade that erged from there was green, 'reeking' of wind.

Damn cool weapon idea. I could already think of other similar uses that I could copy.

"Already leaving, Raven?" Ozpin's voice sounded again.

"I have nothing more to do here. My presence is not required." She looked at Yang for a mont before looking away, in the direction Qrow was coming from.

Two kiloters was her detection range, or at least that's what she wanted to think; either way, it was good information.

"Nothing to do here, mother?" Yang spat the word almost disgustedly. "Why did you even co here in the first place?"

Raven didn't answer Yang, nor did she look at her, focusing entirely on .

"You'll find that Ozpin is not as transparent as he pretends to be. I wonder what your reaction will be when you know what you're really up against..." She didn't wait for a response and 'cut' the air, creating a portal that closed monts after she passed through it.

Qrow arrived seconds later.

[...]

"So, is Qrow the drunk and kind brother or sothing?" I asked into the air, slumping into the armchair behind .

We had returned to Beacon after Raven's interference in Yang and Neo's fight. We were in Glynda's office at the mont, since Ozpin, from what I had gathered, hadn't set foot in his once today.

I wonder why...

Roman and Neo had 'vanished into thin air' along with the twins the mont everything cald down. I didn't bother pointing out where they were, nor did Qrow or Ozpin ask.

Everyone was more focused on Raven's surprise appearance.

"Badass and cool twin brother, you an." Qrow responded after a swig from his flask. It reeked of Vodka. "But yeah, that's . Raven has always been a bit of a bitch."

Qrow tensed for a second and turned to Ruby, when she didn't react, he relaxed. Was it because he had sworn? Maybe. Ruby had gotten used to them because of , probably.

In the room were myself, Ozpin, Qrow, Jas, Glynda, Winter, and Team RWBY.

Ozpin had tried to send the girls away when we arrived, they didn't take it very well this ti, demanding answers to the questions they had.

So far, I had answered them what I knew from the stream, except for a few pieces of information; it seed that wasn't enough. I didn't bla them, I wanted answers too.

The excuse of sending Yang to the infirmary didn't work either; a few drops of the potion on the wound, an adhesive bandage along with Aura, was enough to close the wound almost completely; I even doubted it would leave a scar.

"Why did that woman have magic?!" Yang was the one who asked, not even referring to Raven by na.

"Didn't Devas explain that to you?" Ozpin asked back.

I waved my hand. "Sort of. The opportunity never really ca up." The girls didn't ask either, probably because of the stream; so information had been thrown in there.

I wasn't entirely sure what the Maidens were. At least not their origin, only that there were four won, I imagine from the na, with magic and that they were 'keys' to a vault that held a divine relic.

The only part that really interested was the last.

"Raven is a Maiden, Firecracker." Qrow was the one who spoke. "In summary, there are four of them, one for each season, whenever one dies, the power passes to another."

"It's random, just... poof?" Ruby opened her hands slowly. Ozpin sighed and explained further.

"Whenever a Maiden dies, her power is inherited by the last woman in her mory, except if that woman is over thirty years old, then the power appears randomly across Remnant, as Qrow said."

"Which ans Raven has had this power for so ti now. You didn't know?" I asked. They seed surprised by the information.

I said this because of Yang's age, if Raven was still under thirty things would be very strange...

"No. But I'm not surprised that my sister would want that power for herself, even if it put a target on her back." Qrow took another swig of his drink. "Sothing tells she didn't have the 'luck' to just wake up as a Maiden randomly."

No one in the room missed the context of the sentence. Raven had killed the previous Maiden, it was very hard not to be the last mories of soone you had murdered.

Yang frowned at the thought.

"As for the origin of these powers, well..." Ozpin tapped his fingers on the table. "Do you know the fairy tale of the Four Maidens?"

"Yes." It was the unanimous response, or close to it.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." I pointed to myself and then upwards. "Seven thousand other people don't either."

The (CHAT) spamd emotes of "WTF?".

Ozpin laughed a bit and began to tell the story of an old Wizard who lived alone in the mountains, lonely, but one day was visited by four sisters, who, each in her own way, was kind to the man.

The first, Winter, encouraged him to ditate and reflect, teaching and assisting him along the way.

The second, Spring, brought him fruits, flowers, and helped him tend to the garden.

The third, Sumr, convinced him to leave the mountain, descend, and explore the world around his ho.

Finally, Fall, who showed him that even alone, before, he still had much, teaching him that he should be grateful for what he had and not lant what he didn't have.

Moved by their kindness, the old man bestowed upon them great powers, so they could go and travel the world without fear and continue to share their kindness.

"So the four promised to visit the old Wizard annually." Ozpin finished the story. He had a lancholic and sad air about him.

I stared at him expressionlessly. He did the sa.

No fucking way I was going to believe for a single second that this 'old Wizard' wasn't the guy in front of . I was also sure there was more to this tale than he had told, but I didn't ask, the man seed almost broken as he told the story.

I wasn't the only one who noticed, nor was I the only one kind enough not to comnt. No one did.

"What's Raven's Semblance?" I asked Qrow, trying to rid the room of its lancholic air. The guy was her brother; he should know. "I don't like the idea of soone just being able to appear through a portal next to while I'm sleeping."

My words seed to worry Team RWBY. I was worried too, but for different reasons.

I was confident that I could react in ti even if she opened a portal right in front of my face; my sleep was light, my senses sharp, and I had the Minimap. Raven was considered yellow on it, but the mont she attacked , that would change.

But what about the others? Raven seed to have appeared to defend Yang, but what if that changed? What if she were to attack Ruby? Weiss? Blake? I wasn't omnipresent.

"Her Semblance has limits. She can't just appear anywhere; she can only create a portal to soone she has an emotional bond with." Qrow explained. "Other than and Firecracker, I don't think she has that with anyone else on the planet."

"That's a big limitation... Any range limit?" I asked. Was that why she had appeared, she felt that Yang was in danger or sothing?

Why now and not before? Neo had attacked Yang on the train, hadn't she? Besides, I was here, Yang wasn't in danger in that fight... Was it because of my title?... Probably...

"None that I know of. I've seen her use the thing to go from one end of the continent to the other." Qrow frowned. "I'd say it's limitless, but I don't think she'll be able to follow you even if she does have a link with you sohow."

"At least continental then..." I muttered. In other words, practically the damn planet, if not really that.

"She could appear around at any mont then..." Yang didn't seem happy with that fact and turned to . "Devas, cut this link off ."

I looked at her expressionlessly. When did everyone start thinking I worked miracles?

"How am I supposed to do that, Yang?" I asked. "I have no idea how Semblances work, I don't even know mine."

"Use Analyze: Item on and cut this thing off." Yang pointed to herself. "Uncle Qrow will pay the SP cost." We both ignored the 'hey' coming from the man.

"Using Analyze: Item on you will show that you have this link, which we already know, maybe where it is, not how to cut it off." I pointed upwards. "I know where the Sun is, I can even calculate its exact position, but I still can't cut it off."

It wasn't one of my best examples, but it would do. I sighed.

"And there's still the fact: Do you really want this?" I asked. "Cutting off the link you have with Raven?" Sumr was Yang's mother, Raven was her biological mother.

I didn't know her story for sure, but I knew mine. Even though my 'father' was a complete asshole, at so point in the past I wished he wasn't, maybe even wished for his attention and that we could be a family.

Not anymore, not for a long ti...

I didn't know if that was Yang's case. From the look on her face, she didn't know either.

"I... I don't know." She hesitated. "Raven was never really my mom..." The most I wanted her to be was left unsaid.

Ruby didn't say anything and hugged Yang in silence. No one interfered or spoke.

I let the two hug for a while before getting up and going to Yang.

"Let's see if I can at least find this link. If I can, you can think about it later." If not, it didn't matter. "Let see sothing before I spend my SP. Stay still." Yang didn't move and waved for to continue. I crouched down and got eye-level with her, then pulled my energies into my eyes.

The nightmare energy couldn't see the link, the sa with spiritual energy and mana. I could see the outline of her soul, her emotions, and even the intensity of her Aura, her movent, but nothing of the link.

I pulled my Aura into my eyes, nothing changed except for amplifying what I could already see, no sign of the link. I hesitated for a mont and closed my eyes before focusing even more and 'pulling' my second racial trait forward.

I felt the surroundings change instantly, not the environnt itself, but the people. I felt every breath they took, every muscle they contracted, their emotions, Auras, I even felt their souls, part of their Semblances...

I felt everyone around tense up. Their bodies reacting instinctively like the people in Junior's club. There I had used the racial trait reflexively, it was weak and sparsely focused on Roman and Neo, here? Now I was using it consciously, even though I restrained myself, focusing only on this room, it was still stronger than in the club.

It was almost funny how Blake, who had better instincts, was the least affected of all. Faunus were still considered human it seed, but not entirely.

The words instinctively ca out of my lips.

"I am human, nothing human is foreign to ."

Everyone who heard nodded instinctively, agreeing with . They were not re words. It was not a simple speech...

... It was a decree.

I opened my eyes and could clearly see the link in Yang's soul, not only that, but her Semblance too, where it resided, the bonfire representing it, the flas burning high.

I let my eyes rest for a mont on that bonfire before looking at the link, the connection between Yang and Raven. The rope, so to speak, went south.

I slowly reached out my hand and touched the rope, it swayed gently, shimring with my touch, I felt Raven tense wherever she was, felt her fear, felt her gaze, her search for whatever she thought was happening.

I sighed and pulled my hand back, along with it, my energies and my racial trait.

"W-what was that?" The first to recover was Ozpin, followed by Blake. All the others still seed almost in a trance.

"Sothing I can't use in Terraria." There were no humans besides there...

"Anyway, I found the link. I think I can break it too." I was sure. It would be simple actually. "Take so ti to think about it, if you want to cut it, just let know." I said to Yang.

My voice seed to be enough to 'wake up' everyone, all looking at . Ruby was the one who spoke this ti, her silver eyes staring into mine...

"Devas... Your eyes..."

... Orange eyes...

"... They're orange."

[...]---[...]

Regarding the chapter: Well, there's a little fight between Yang and Neo, more to calm Yang down than anything else. Raven also showed up, thinking Yang was in danger, but she wasn't; the Devas' title sses things up sotis.

Well, finally, the second racial trait of the Devas. So people made good guesses; I haven't revealed it yet, probably won't happen in the next chapter either, but his Semblance is close. No spoilers...

Well, as always, goodnight and happy reading!

PS: Roman called Raven's sword a Katana because he didn't know what it was, it wasn't my mistake; I wrote it that way because I thought: There's no way Roman would care enough about that.

PSS: I updated the chapter about the rarities in case anyone wants to know, I improved it.
