Finally in Japan.... but in 90s

When I open my eyes, I find myself in an empty room filled with darkness alongside Scathach. To see easier, I make Shinsu bangs and then light them up as if they are on fire. I have learned some tricks with Shinsu so those months of traveling were not in vain. I then turn on the lights of the room.

I then felt a bit of burning pain on the back of my left hand for a moment. Oh, there are my 3 Command Spells, guess I am a Master now.

As for how it looks, let's not talk about it. I don't think that matters.

...Well if you are curious then it can't be helped.

My Command Spells look like a fucking equilateral triangle, not cool at all!

While I am looking around the room with Scathach, then I remember something important.

"Scathach can you dematerialize into spirit form or not?" I ask her just to make sure.

"I can't, it's because I am here in my true body not in a vessel prepared by the Holy Grail." Of course, it was like that. Oh well, I suppose she will have to wear modern clothes like she has been wearing these days when in public.

I go to a table in the room and there I see a passport. I open it and to my surprise, I see my name on it. So is this my house? Wouldn't that be convenient? Did the chat group manipulate fate to get us here? No pun intended.

I won't kick a gift horse in the mouth so I just pocket it. And then search for some money.

Scathach on the other hand seems to be in some kind of daze. I guess I will leave her alone for the time being.

I look around the house while turning on the lights and then check my smartphone. The group chat function is unavailable since their worlds are paused but all the other functions are still here. The most important one right now is this current world's time and location.

Looks like I am currently in Fuyuki City and the time is 6:13 pm JST of course. Today's date is 9 January 1994.

No idea when that is compared to the Holy Grail War though. Since there was no clear date in any material containing the Fourth Holy Grail War, only a countdown till the end of it.

"Sigh if only this was the Fifth one, things would have been a lot easier. Well, I suppose beggars can't be choosers."

Hmm, I should go out and get the lay of the land.

Nobody would notice me anyway if I don't want them to with my EX-ranked Presence Concealment.

Scathach comes out of her daze while I was thinking about some stuff and then she comes toward me with a serious face and then asks, "What have you found out, Amar?"

"Nothing of much importance. Just the time and place we are in. We are currently in Fuyuki City where the Holy Grail War takes place."

She just nods at this.

"So let's get outside and get the lay of the land." She tells me.

"No Scathach I will go outside alone. You should set up a boundary field around the house or make a territory here. I am sure that you will know which is better since you are the expert, while you do that I will scope out the city."

I tell her and she makes an unhappy face. But honestly, I do need some alone time.

Also, this is my first time in Japan. So I kinda want to do this alone just to keep my weeb self away from her eyes.

Of course, that is if I actually do that. Chances are high that I won't.

"Alright as you say, Amar."

And then she turns away from me with a very light pout on her face. Interesting.

After taking out some money from the drawers. It was around 30,000 yen. I think that should be a decent amount from my knowledge but who knows how the economy worked in Japan in the 90s and that too in an alternate universe.

I put the money in my pocket and then went out of the house while seeing Scathach doing something with the runes, I recognized some of them but didn't pay much attention to them for the time being.

After leaving the house and coming out on the street. I see western houses on both sides of the street.

Hmm so is this the Miyama Town or Shinto? Let's see.

So I walk down the road in the evening while looking around and thinking until I reach an intersection.

I see I see. This is a bit familiar, thankfully the scenery doesn't change much ten years from now otherwise I would be confused as hell.

I am currently living in Miyama Town part of Fuyuki City.

Miyama Town is further divided into two kinds of residential districts sort of. The first one is where I am coming from, filled with western-styled houses. The other one is on the opposite side of the intersection and is filled with Japanese-styled houses.

Another side of the intersection goes towards the schools, markets, and finally, and arguably the most important of all Ryuudou Temple which is one of the focal points of the leylines in this city.

On the opposite side of Ryuudou Temple is the road heading towards Shinto with the Fuyuki Bridge connecting the two parts of the city.

I head toward the market area in Miyama Town for some local cuisine if you will. I wonder if that Chinese restaurant is here yet or not.

You know the one where Kotomine Kirei enjoys Mapo Tofu in all its spicy glory.

But when I got there after asking for directions towards the marketplace, I was disappointed since there was no such restaurant there.

Of course, can't even enjoy some spicy food since it's the fucking 90s.

I found a sweet shop nearby thankfully and that made my mood better since I kind of have sweet tooth.

I bought some crepes and taiyaki. Of course, some of them were for Scathach. I care about stuff like this I am not like certain dense protagonists.

"As expected of anime food, it looks and tastes delicious."

I say while eating and heading towards the Fuyuki Bridge to head for the Shinto part of the City.

'System tell me how my parameters scale in terms of Nasuverse.'

*Showing results*

[Name: Amar

Race: Dead Apostle

Parameters:

Strength- EX

Endurance- EX

Agility- EX

Mana- ??

Luck- A+

Noble Phantasm- EX]

There is a lot to unpack here but the stats are mostly as I expected to be honest.

And this world considering me a Dead Apostle isn't wrong since I am an advanced form of vampire. Even if it is from another world. I should be closer to an Ancestor though but since I haven't usurped an Ancestor I am not one.

Also, this is the first time I saw my luck quantified and I am very satisfied with it. As expected of plot armor. Mana probably couldn't be quantified because I haven't formed my magic circuits, otherwise my Od would be off the charts.

And so I explore Miyama Town while heading towards Shinto.

So that was the chapter. Hope you liked it.

I used Grammarly for this chapter so I hope there are no more minor grammar issues in the chapters. Not like there are many in the usual ones, it is usually only some typos and punctuations. So if there are still some mistakes then blame Grammarly for it.

This is the start of the new arc, hopefully I would execute it decently. Also, I am making my own timeline datewise for this since in the original there were no dates. Hope you don't mind.
