The system, in its infinite wisdom, had designated servants into three tiers.
Bronze Servants were low tier and capable of the most versatility. Their power wasn't really well portrayed in combat. Their power shined in versatility. They could handle any situation while still excelling in their specialization.
Silver Servants were mid tier and had more extreme specialization. Depending on servant in the mid tier they would either be combat oriented or specialized. Very few actually were able to be well rounded with Kotarou being one of the few.
Gold Servants were high tier and highly combat oriented. Usually they were placed into two different categories. They were known colloquially as Nukers and Wave Clearers based on some chatter the servants had focused on. Though a few were known as Tanks for their non offensive noble phantasms.
Ritsuka had been very… unwilling to use such terms since all servants were capable of doing more than their narrow specializations that the FATE system had designated.
Ignoring the anger building up in his gut Ritsuka decided that now was the time to actually fight back since it was obvious with how Yuuma threw her light spears that she wasn't a very well trained fighter. She was full of openings and rarely knew how to strike around where the attack first came from to block escapes. He took a deep breath and with a quick step appeared back in the open with his traps finally set.
"Here I am." Ritsuka growled out causing Yuuma to flinch back.
'What the fuck is this?' Raynare attempted to throw another spear only for the kunai to pierce her hand stopping the attack. She hadn't even seen him throw it. She screamed in pain as this, human, readied his stance once more letting her have the chance to do something. He looked serious but she could tell… he wasn't taking her seriously at all.
"Ritsuka Fujimaru…" Raynare growled out. "So you were just pretending to be a weak human."
"Certainly not. I am a weak human… I just know how to deal with those who do wrong and I do so very well." Ritsuka answered calmly. His eyes glared up at her and she could feel that same pressure that Azazel had whenever he was actually being serious. Infuriating was the only thing running through her mind… along with that voice screaming to run away.
"Then die!" Raynare screamed as several spears appeared around her flying down towards Ritsuka.
Like a dancer, Ritsuka sped around the spears without too much trouble even though he was only human. A roll underneath one and another slight step to the side without letting the spear even graze him. Another scream left her mouth as she dove down with the largest spear she could manifest straight for his heart.
'I will not fail!' Raynare no longer saw anything more than killing the human before her now. She would never accept that a human could ever defeat her. Tunnel visioned and unaware, she didn't see as he pulled out a long kusarigama
Ritsuka ducked low and forced himself in between her arms knocking her arms and spear away with a quick strike to her abdomen. As it impacted with her stomach he forced himself to flash step behind her while the chain on the kusarigama wrapped around her arms, legs and wings. The spear dissipated letting him grab the chain tight and slam her onto the ground on her back.
"You ass- " Raynare started only for Ritsuka to ram the blade down next to her head letting the blade sink down quite a bit using Kotarou's strengths to create enough fear in her to get her to stop.
'What… the fuck… ' Raynare gulped as she realized she had just lost to a human… and now she was going to die.
'Crap… crap crap crap… far too hard on her.' Ritsuka tensed up but Yuuma couldn't tell. Her eyes were so full of fear that she didn't look like she was focusing on him anymore.
The knowledge of how Kotarou fought was in his head and at this point he knew what his ninja mentor would actually do. The next part made him… uncomfortable and he knew it would be something that all the Fuuma would do. The blade of the sickle… he lowered down on Yuuma's neck.
"No! Please!" Yuuma yelled out as tears were released. She blubbered without any regard for her pride. With Kotarou being within him though… it didn't affect him at all. He didn't like that at all.
"A trade then?" Ritsuka answered. "Keeping your head for what's in your head then."
"I-I-I… I can't… if I…" She started only for the blade to be brought closer.
"You will." Ritsuka stated with no uncertainty in his voice. He was serious.
Yuuma looked at him… she looked devastated… and turned on. That was the weirdest thing he had ever seen. Still he didn't let it show on his face. He needed answers about her faction if for nothing else than rumors about anything they may have found.
"I'll live…" Yuuma asked… the faint sound of hope covered by levels of despair.
"If you answer my questions. So let's begin then. What are you, What is your organization and What is your name? We'll start with that and no I will not let you up. You answer from where you are or I decide to go through with what I've been bringing my blade down to do." Ritsuka replied coldly. His gaze hardened and she lightly nodded.
"M-my name is R-raynare… I'm a fallen angel… and I belong to the organization known as the Grigori. Y-you know… they'll retaliate for me." Raynare, as he now knew, tried to claim.
"They don't know you decided to do this and you won't be missed." Ritsuka quietly stated in response. He felt some twinge from Kotarou's spirit… as if he was approving and feeling disappointed at the same time.
Ritsuka disliked the feeling he was getting from doing this. It wasn't him… it wasn't him at all and he wanted to just rush away instead of following through with this plan. He couldn't though. Unfortunately, without any way to detect the holy grail fragment that Chaldea had detected that left him little option but to employ what Chaldea called Mordred tactics which meant beating the shit out of anyone in his way and asking whoever was left what they knew.
