[h1][center][color=00aeef][b]Odysseus[/b][/color][/center][/h1] [h2][center]The Church, Previously[/center][/h2] After being sent off by his Master, only one path was clear to Archer; he decided to make his appearance back to the Church. The discussion earlier had been increasingly more interesting the more other servants have arrived... and besides, whatever fight Boxzerker had been sent to, it most likely was but a short one, judging Ruler's quick action to use a Command Spell just to even the odds. And so, the man in the gray hoodie had entered the Church, once again, hands in his pockets. He had his hood down, and took a seat on one of the church pews. [color=00aeef]"Servant Archer, here once again, if you don't mind. I won't be causing any trouble..."[/color] Archer waved, with a small grin. And true to his word, he was, as his intentions were not to find out information about his potential opponents, no... his plans were actually to scope out any prospective Servants and Masters who he could make as allies. He was already making himself partially vulnerable, revealing and confirming that he's a Servant to those who are present, as well as his class, so any beliefs the others have of hidden intentions he may be keeping will be put at ease, at least hopefully. Archer hopes to at least make one ally tonight. If only his Master shared the same mindset as him... he seems disinterested in the other participants of the war, being a bit vocal at times at how much he dislikes other Magi. Ah, well, they'll talk about it later. It'd be a waste is he were unable to put his high Charisma skill to use. His skills, in the end, won't be enough for him to survive in extensive direct combat by himself, even if he can't bring himself to admit it. Archer stayed mostly silent, making his quips. Archer did make a right call coming right to the Church instead of making his way to watch those two Berserkers fight... the poor Master had already made his way here. The big looking servant had already introduced himself as Rostam, apparently. He's heard well enough of him, the information the Grail has given to him notwithstanding. Persia and Greece weren't in the best of graces with eachother during those times. Still, a great and powerful warrior such as him would make as a good ally to have fighting in the front while he provides support from the backline. From what Archer knows, however, Rostam was said to be an honorable man. If he were to find Archer's actual identity, that may put a strain on their relationship, should he agree on an alliance in the first place. He'll have to give this one a big 'maybe.' Then came the topic of this Black-Haired Man. Two of the Masters, and even a Servant, had mentioned they lost their partners to this being... one who wasn't even a Servant in the first place, yet had the power to eliminate one in a singular blow, at least, according to what he has heard. Ruler pointed out a substantial reward to those who will get rid of this interference. Another bargaining point to make when prospecting for allies. Archer had planned to vocalize his confidence in eliminating this Black-Haired Man, but not before Ruler made his ultimatum; to have a meeting at sundown, with all the Servants and Masters, in order to discuss this issue further. [color=00aeef]"There will be no need to send a priest to my Master's position... I will simply tell him, myself,"[/color] Archer spoke up, standing up and making his way to the door. [color=00aeef]"It was nice meeting all of you this fine evening. I will see you all at the Eastern Field tomorrow."[/color] Archer said as he reached the door, giving a nice smile and wave to everyone else before leaving the Church, making his rounds around Shinto in order to evade any followers before finally heading back to [i]the Scuttle.[/i] [color=00aeef]"There seems to be a topic of interest amongst a few of our fellow participants in this War, Master. A Black-Haired Man, not a Servant in his own right, bur able to eliminate Servants single-handedly. To deal with this issue, Ruler had proposed having a meeting with the rest of the participants. It will be held in the Eastern Field, at sundown, and Ruler made it clear enough that he wished both Master and Servant are to be there. So I hope you didn't have plans tomorrow..." "...And please, for both our sakes, try to make friends while we're there."[/color] [@Beloss][@Moonlit Sonata][@Holy Grail][@SIGINT][@Yukitamas][@DrowsyPangolin]
