Welcome to the next chapter of The Magic Knight, before starting the story. Lets answer some reviews:
Hellspam: I'm glad that you liked the chapter and don't worry, Gabriel will soon make her appearance.
Desdelor97: Thanks, I'm glad that you liked the chapter.
Guest: Thanks and don't worry she'll soon make her appearance during their summer training. You're right to be excited. And I've never really thought about doing an Attack on Titan FanFiction, but that series isn't really that kind of story that I'm interested in writing.
Fallen-of-Kings: Well, I personally welcome you to the site. I'm happy that you like the development of each of my characters in my story. Don't worry, I already have an idea for Lance's Sacred Gear along with how his War God is going to further develop in the near future. And yes, I was thinking about having Sona as the Alpha.
Gabriel790: Thanks.
King0fP0wers: Welcome, your majesty. I'm glad that you like the idea of them training on the island Avalon and you're right that would've been an interesting idea, both of them would definitely have a lot of things to talk about. Don't worry, I already have an idea of what I'm going to do with the Gate of Babylon as a Sacred Gear. Also you're right about Rizevim's Sacred Gear Canceler, it is only capable of erases abilities that are enhanced due to Sacred Gears or Weapons that were made due to them. I already had Fafnir be currently contained in Azazel's Downfall Spear. And you're correct, due to its abilities it could be counted as a Longinus-Class Sacred Gear.
Guest 2: Yep, in Arthurian Myth, Avalon is considered to be like a paradise. You're correct, only those who're capable of entering Avalon are those who currently have permission. Yes the idea of both of them eventually battling against each other would be a battle to look forward to. And like I said in the other response, Sacred Gear Canceler won't be able to block the Gate of Babylon due to it only being able to fire off stored weapons.
Lance-Sama: Don't worry that time will eventually come, you're right that would be something that she'll be mad about and that's something Kuroka will take advantage of.
Guest 3: Yea, that is basically the entire relationship between both of them. And you're correct, that is something that she'll definitely use against him.
OverpoweredOC: I have considered adding Ophis to Lance's Harem.
DdraigTrueEmperor9: Welcome back to the site, it's good to hear from you. And you're right even if he's annoyed by Lance's interruptions, he'll also have to be considered with being electrocuted by his Yandere daughter. Also the relationship that Tannin had with the being sealed inside of the jewel will be revealed in the later chapters. You're correct about those four getting more time with Lance than the others and you're correct about Sona taking the position as Alpha.
Guest 4: Yep, the fight between the Knight and the King will soon come in the near future.
Guest 5: I will not say whether he will or will not be receiving Brave Saints.
John: Thanks, I'm glad you like the story. And more Oc characters will be arriving in the near future and I don't think that Gil will be interested in joining his rival.
CCG's Ninja: I'm glad that you like the chapter along with the idea for them to be training on Avalon. The full extent of their training will be revealed later and I can't put Fafnir into the Gate of Babylon due to him already being inside of Azazel's Artificial Sacred Gear.
Naruto: I'm glad that you like the idea of the fight between the descendants of the Great Knight and the King.
Now that those reviews are done, let's get right to the next chapter.
The Second Ruler of Avalon
Several Days Later
For almost over a week training on Avalon, the four teens have been going through their training with the insanely powerful Knightess, Elaine. During their training, each of them begun to see what they needed to work on to increase their own capabilities even further than they were before.
Yumi and Jeanne (Sword Training)
Currently near the beach was both Yumi and Jeanne were standing a distance from each other, while they also wore their own jerseys. From the looks of their tattered jerseys, due to both the training and the mock battles that they were going through on their own. As the calming gentle breeze began to pass by them, both of them had begun to take in a deep calming breath. Currently clenched in Yumi's hand was a sheathed Masamune, she soon reached his freehand out and released it from its sheathe.
She had soon stood in her hand stance with Masamune in her hands, a silent aura was released from her body and the air had hissed as passed by her sword's blade. While Jeanne had stood prepared for whatever attack that Yumi might pull against her. From the forest that was near them, a single leaf had blew towards them and it soon landed on the sandy ground.
After that silent signal, both of them had opened their eyes, however Yumi made the first move by completely vanishing from Jeanne's line of sight. As she began to move at speeds that were impossible for normal people to be capable of following. But Jeanne had began to listen close for every subtle move and step that set made with a great amount of concentration.
And suddenly, Yumi had appeared behind Jeanne with Masamune rose up in the air and preparing to make the first cut onto her body. Or so she thought, until Jeanne held her hand behind her back and summoned a holy sword in her hand, which blocked Yumi's first attack at her without looking back.
"She block my first attack without looking."
Yumi had surprised by what she had just witnessed. From that first attack, Yumi had immediately noticed that her speed of summoning holy swords using her Blade Blacksmith had increased greatly. Despite her being surprised by what had happened, she had also smiled at her growth before vanishing from sight again. Jeanne had continued to block each of Yumi's attacks from her sword, which were coming at her at a speed that could only be known as godspeed.
As Yumi continued to attack her at that speed, she inspected the condition of the holy sword that Jeanne had created through her use of Blade Blacksmith. She looked and noticed that there were was a slightly stronger aura being released from her sword.
"She must be increasing her holy swords' aura by covering it in her own aura."
Yumi had deduced as she stopped moving at high speeds and appeared in front of her, while also charging the holy aura of her Masamune.
"Alright, Jeanne. Try and block this!"
Yumi had called out towards her as she rose Masamune up high towards the air. She then slashed her sword downwards and released a slash of holy wind towards Jeanne who didn't attempt to dodge the attack.
"Alright, let's go! Blade Blacksmith!"
Jeanne had called out, as she summoned seven holy swords in the air that had acted into a shield. Once Yumi's attack had reached her, the barrier created from holy swords had blocked her attack. After Yumi's attack had finally subsided, she looked towards Yumi with an impressed look on her face.
"That was impressive Jeanne. But, why don't we really get started?"
Yumi had stated with a confident look on her face, which Jeanne had matched with a similar look on her face.
"Alright, here I come! Balance Break!"
Jeanne had called out her Balance Breaker the Sub-Species Victim Stake Dragon and her dragon created from her holy swords. And the dragon looked towards Yumi, while also releasing a low growl from its mouth. She then summoned two more holy swords in her hand, while Yumi stood in a battle ready stance.
"Let's go!"
Yumi had called out as she charged forward and begun her battle against both Jeanne and her holy sword-made dragon. Both blonde swordswomen had charged towards each other at godspeed with silvery white sparks beginning to flying into the air, as their swords began to clash against each other.
ROOOOAR!
Jeanne's dragon had let out a piercing roar and charged towards Yumi as Jeanne stepped away from her, upon seeing that Yumi was surrounded in a subtle aura. As the dragon dove down towards Yumi, she had suddenly vanished from sight and only narrowly dodged the dragon's attack, which caused Jeanne to make a look of shock on her face.
"Th-That was…."
"Jinsokutsu, one of Naomi's Five Star Technique. By focusing aura at my feet I can move at God-Like speed, but I still haven't gotten used to this."
Yumi had said as she appeared next to her with Masamune's edge directed inches at her neck, while she made a smirk on her face.
"Oh, I didn't think that you could use that. Since she never taught us how to use her techniques."
"You're right, but she did show us each of her techniques during our training. The only thing that I did was copying her."
"How perceptive, Yumi-Chan."
Jeanne had said with a smile on her face, she then stepped away from Yumi by using her aura to increase her own speed.
"But, not good enough to beat me."
"I still have more where that came from!"
Yumi had declared as she gripped Masamune in her hands and continued her battle against Jeanne along with her Dragon of holy swords.
Xenovia (Durandal Training)
Xenovia was elsewhere on the Avalon near the ocean further away from everyone else, so that she could full concentrate on fully mastering Durandal's destructive holy aura. She currently held Durandal in her hand and pointing its edge towards the ocean. Xenovia was releasing several calming breathes from her mouth and also had her mind completely free from any other thought.
Suddenly Xenovia began to charge up Durandal's destructive holy aura and she began to wait for just the right moment to release it. She finally released the holy aura from its blade and it went forward towards the ocean and slightly opened, but the attack had only went a couple of meters far. After releasing that attack, Xenovia had started to breathe slightly heavily with a slight sweat coming off her face.
"No, it's still not good enough."
Xenovia had said to herself, as her grip on Durandal by its hilt and she held his up again. As she continued to look forward with a determined look on her face, the memory of their training had came to mind.
Three Days Ago
Within the middle of the forest on Avalon, Lance, Yumi and Jeanne were sitting down next to each other in a meditating position with their hands placed together. As each of them sat there, they were releasing their own auras from their bodies to the point where it surrounded their bodies. The three of them had their eyes closed and breathing inwards and outwards, as they were sitting there Jeanne had opened one of her eyes and glanced towards both Lance and Yumi.
"Why're we doing this?"
Jeanne had decided to ask both them, while continuing to release her aura.
"Elaine said that doing this would allow us to gain better control over our aura."
Yumi had answered as she opened one of her eyes and glanced back at Jeanne.
"This training may sound a bit basic, but this does have some meaning to it."
"I get that Lance-Kun, but I'm just wondering. Why're we doing this here?"
Jeanne had wonder out, while releasing a slight sigh. At that moment, Elaine had arrived where both of them were meditating with a double-edge broadsword in her hand, which was surrounded with a large amount of touki. Suddenly, Xenovia had came down in front of her holding Durandal in both of her hands, while also surrounding it with its destructive aura.
After collided with Elaine's touki cladded sword, the swords had released a powerful shockwave that pushed away the leaves around them in the other direction. The shockwave had also slightly disrupted the aura that were surrounding the three of them, but it soon returned to normal. After hearing that from one of her students, Elaine had turned her head towards them.
"Lance is correct, this training is supposed to teach the three of you better control over your aura. By quietly releasing, while also concentrating on your own state of mind and silently releasing your own aura. Don't worry, I was taught this by a very reliable teacher."
Elaine had stated, as she pushed Xenovia backwards using her sword, which also caused the three of them to look at her with a wondering look on her face.
"And that would be?"
Lance was the first of them to ask her.
"Uh, a very reliable Monkey King."
Elaine had plainly answered them, as she smirked at the three of them. But her answer had caused both Yumi and Jeanne to looked at her with a questioning look on their face, while Lance was the first of them to figure out who she was talking about. But the question of how she met up with that very specific person had also entered his mind, but he was stopped as Xenovia had continued to charge at her. After Elaine had continued to block Xenovia's attack with her sword, which caused another shockwave to be generated.
"Let's just say that the reason why I am also training Xenovia, in the middle of you guys' meditating to gain a far better control and understanding of your auras and thus yourself. Is because if you can keep up your focus, while we're also releasing these strong shockwaves that can also disrupt a person's focus, then your own focus would increase greater than before."
The three of them had nodded their heads in agreement and attempted to silently release their auras without it being visible. As they attempting to do that, Xenovia had charged towards Elaine with Durandal and then she began to attack her with several powerful slashes. However, as each attack that was coming towards her, Elaine had continued to parry away each of Xenovia's attacks.
"Good strong slashes with strong force behind them every time, that's perfect. But, try to become a Balance-Type Fighter."
Elaine had said as she parried another of her attacks in the other direction, which caused Xenovia to look at her with a questioning look.
"A Balance-Type Fighter?"
"Yes, a fighter who can balance out their own power with their technique. I've already heard from several of the Exorcists from the Vatican that you're already a prodigy when it comes to single and dual sword wielding style. So don't try and abandon your own talent to rely solely on power, instead try to balance them out so that you can use technique, while also having great power behind your attacks."
Elaine had instructed as she charged towards Xenovia this time wielding her sword using one hand. After she noticed her coming towards her, Xenovia prepared for her upcoming attack. Elaine had started to slash at her with a barrage of attack, which were not only quick and precise, but they had also possessed a great amount of power behind them. Xenovia was capable of blocking most of her attacks, but most of those attack had sent her stumbling backwards slightly.
"What is also was astounding was what happened during the conference the conference."
Elaine had stated as Xenovia evaded her attack by jumping backwards.
"What was that?"
"The moment just before those Witches used Gasper to stop time. You said that your body remembered the exact moment that his Sacred Gear had stopped time and you used Durandal to protect yourself from being stopped again."
"Yes."
Xenovia had answered as she looked and noticed Elaine rising her sword up into the air and a vast amount of touki started to surround its blade. After realizing that the next attack would be something that she wouldn't be able to take on without being gravely injured. The moment that Elaine had brought down her sword, Xenovia had quickly dodged the attack as a powerful shockwave was released from her blade. And the attack had continued to created a large amount of devastation in its very wake, which had destroyed a portion of the forest.
"That is around the same level of power that Vasco was capable of releasing with Durandal in his youth. If possibly, I want you to try and release this same level of attacks as many times as you can."
"O-Okay."
Xenovia again amazed by the large amount of destruction that Elaine was capable of causing with just a swing from her sword. But, as she was standing there she had looked towards Elaine as she was looking towards the deeper parts of the forest with somewhat of a dazed look on her face.
"…. …. …."
Elaine had said something to herself in a language that Xenovia didn't recognize nor a language that she could possibly understand.
"Elaine-Sama? What did you just say?"
Xenovia had decided to ask with a confused look on her face.
"Oh, uh nothing. I was just talking to myself. Why don't we continue?"
"Yes."
Xenovia had answered determined, she then gripped Durandal in her hand and continued her training with Elaine.
Xenovia had finished reminiscing on that day and she had continued releasing a powerful amount of aura from Durandal with the determination. And she slashed Durandal downwards released another powerful and destructive wave from it. She then turned around and sliced a large rock that was close to her diagonally with an almost clean cut.
"I'll master Durandal and become someone worthy to called his fiancee."
Xenovia had declared as she continued her training to master the destructive power of Durandal.
Lance (Special Training)
In another part of Avalon, Lance had suddenly jumped backwards a very great distance from the inside of the forest and he was also in his War God state. However, the training jersey that he was wearing in tatters and he was almost covered in injuries. The point of his training was not just to get used to fighting for a long period of time in his war god state, but also to master his own abilities along with increase his own physical strength and his endurance.
"I think she really got me with that last attack."
Lance had muttered to himself as he began to breath slightly heavily, while he placed his hand on his side. He had also winced slightly after touching his side, but he was stopped after sensing a very monstrous presence coming towards him. Before he knew it, Elaine had appeared in front of him in her own war god state and her fist pulled back. And she released it towards him, Lance then flipped backwards narrowly dodging her attack and pushed himself up on his face.
But he noticed that her attack had caused a great disturbance in the water and he had grimaced slightly. He was stopped as he noticed Elaine stepping in front of him in a stance normally used by boxers. She had then followed with a straight punch directed towards his face, due to him being in his war god he was capable of only slightly reading her attack and he dodged her attack. But he noticed that her attack had left a slight cut on his cheek.
After noticing the cut on his cheek, Lance had clicked his tongue and Elaine had begun to let out an insanely flurry of straight punches towards him. Lance was capable of perceive most of her attack, but was only barely able to react to each of them. So he was only left with the option of only dodging her attacks or deflecting her punches.
"And like always, Lance is showing sign of adapting to his opponent's attacks in the middle of combat. Before he was only left with the option of running away or dodging my attacks."
Elaine had thought as she continued to launch a barrage of attacks, but she had clenched her fist and then she launched it towards him with greater speed.
"I've got to make it in time."
Lance had thought to himself, as several lines of magic calculations began to wrap and circle around his entire forearm. He had clenched his fist and aimed it towards Elaine, once both of their fists had collided a powerful shockwave as generated their fists had collided against each other. After making contact with her fist, most of the magic calculations that had surrounded most of his arm had vanished. Elaine had made a shocked look on her face after seeing Lance being capable of countering her attack, even though it wasn't at full power it isn't something that he could be able to do.
"How did you…?"
Elaine had asked out of immense curiosity. Lance then started to rub his hand with a slightly pained look on his face.
"It's a new magic that I had been developing for Wizards and Witches who're poor in physical combat, by inscribing these calculations on either their arms or legs or body." Lance had explained as he caused the magical equations to reappear on his arms. "Then they could gain a large increase in their physical strength or their running speed. I was hoping to test this out some other time during the summer, but I thought that this was a good time."
"That's amazing, after putting them on you were able to cancel one of my punches."
Elaine had responded with a proud look on her face, but Lance had stopped her by shaking his head slightly.
"Yea, but I'm far from actually completing it. Your attack did break some of the calculations and I did still feel some of the force of that attack."
Lance had stated as he started to open and close his fist, until he finally clenched his fist.
"Alright, why don't we continue this?"
Elaine had smirked after hearing the determination that was coming from Lance's tone and she stood back in her fighting stance.
"Alright here I come Lance!"
She then charged towards him with her fists clenched and she continued to launch her barrage of attacks at him. And he had continued on the defensive being capable of only either dodging or deflecting her attacks, while also taking on some of her attacks.
After their training was completed for the day, Lance was currently resting inside of a large open hot spring that was in the middle of the forest with his tattered clothing off inside of a changing room that was located near there. Lance was currently relaxing in the hot springs with an absolutely peaceful expression on his face and a large smile had spread on his face, while he also had a towel wrapped around his waist.
"Awww, this hot spring is taking away all my fatigue away."
He had stated to himself, as he leaned his head back and the wounds that were on his body were also slowly vanishing from is body. The springs that were also location on Avalon also had a healing effect, being capable of healing only minor injuries due to the special herbs that were added in them. Lance then took a handful of the spring water and splashed his face with it and the cuts along with the bruises on his face started to heal.
"I really do love hot springs like this."
"It really does look relaxing."
"It sure it, Xenoviaaaaaa!"
As Lance was saying that he had spit take with an embarrassed look on his face, he had then hesitantly turned around and noticed Xenovia standing behind him with a towel wrapped around her body.
"Uhh, Xenovia what're you doing here?"
"After training I thought that I'd take a bath in the hot springs that I heard about from Elaine-Sama. Why am I not allowed to be here?"
Xenovia had asked with a wondering look on her face.
"Not really."
Lance had answered as he looked in the other direction due to embarrassment. Xenovia then dropped her towel onto the ground and got into the hot spring along with Lance. As both of them stood there relaxing in the springs, but there was nothing but silence between both of them.
"So how was your training to master Durandal?"
Lance was the first one to ask, due to him wanting to at least say something to light up the mood a little.
"It's progressing fine, but I'm far from being able to master it completely. What about your training with Elaine-Sama?"
Xenovia had answered honestly, while also letting out a slight sigh and then asked Lance about his training with Elaine.
"She's basically throwing me around like a rag doll and comes at me while covering herself in a large amount of touki. Every attack that I land on her doesn't affect her that much, every magic attack that I land just gets knocked away and every light weapon that I throw at her just gets broken."
Lance had answered her, while he also sighed slightly.
"Well, the training was never meant for you to actually beat her."
"I know, but it only makes me realize that I'm a far cry from ever being able to match Xander. There has never been anyone other than Elaine who were ever capable of injuring him in a fight, not even my dad or even my uncle when working together."
Lance had said as he had looked into the sky with a wondering look on his face, as frustration began to creep up into his chest. He then heard some motion in the spring as he was still facing away from Xenovia, however before he could say anything. He had later felt Xenovia pressing her bare breasts against his bare back, Lance had started to blush a deep shade of red as he could practically feel her nipples on his back.
"X-Xenovia, what're…?"
Lance asked her with a reddened face, but he was stopped as he felt her bringing him into a hug from behind, while leaning her head against his shoulder.
"That kind of look really doesn't belong on your face, you really aren't the type of person who would worry about every single detail. You're the type of person who trusts in his own judgment and finds a way to win, right?"
Xenovia had stated with a slight smile appearing on her face. Upon hearing that encouragement from her, Lance had smiled and he nodded his head.
"Yea, you're right. I'm sure there's a way to take that guy down, besides it's not like he's unstoppable."
Lance had answered as he looked towards Xenovia and both of them had suddenly matched glances with each other. With Lance looking into into her yellow eyes that had reminded him of the sun and she looked into his eyes that had contained great sincerity behind them. Both of them had began to unconsciously began to inch their heads closer towards each other and son their lips were close to connecting, however….
"Lance-Kun! Xeno-Chan!"
"What're you… Ah, Xenovia!"
Both of them were stopped after hearing two familiar voices coming from behind them. He then hesitantly turned towards the direction of the voices, as he also felt killing intent. He saw Yumi currently with a towel that had her large bust covered and her arms crossed under them, which had emphasized them. And Jeanne who also had a towel wrapped around her hand rested on the side of her hip. And seeing both of them, Xenovia had sighed out of slight annoyance.
"I was having a moment with MY fiance and both of you got in the way…again."
Xenovia had declared, while looking at them with a deadpanned look.
"I'm sorry, but WE wanted to share a bath with OUR Lance-Kun."
Yumi had emphasized with an annoyed look on her face that she had directed towards the blue haired girl.
"Still not an object."
Lance had mumbled out as he looked in the other direction, but he had heard two objects falling onto the ground and then heard someone jumping into the hot springs. He then looked up and noticed that both Yumi and Jeanne had got rid their towels and suddenly vanished from sight.
"Huh, where did…?"
SPLASH!
Suddenly both Yumi and Jeanne had came from the depths of the spring water, with the water had caused their blonde hair to glowed slightly under the glow of the sun. Upon seeing that he had admitted to himself that both of the blondes looked beautiful. Lance was stopped as his right arm was enveloped by Yumi's large bust, while his left arm was pushed in between Jeanne's breasts. After feeling both of their against his arm, Lance had began to gain a slight nosebleed.
"Well~ Lance-Kun, what would you like to do?"
"Huh~ Lance-Kun?"
Both Yumi and Jeanne had asked with a seductive smile on both of their face, as they continued to surround him from both sides.
"Uh, I-I…."
Lance could on stammer after being surrounded by both of the blonde beauties, but was stopped as he also felt Xenovia pressing her breasts up against his chest.
"Why don't we get started in forming our own family?"
Xenovia had asked with a similarly seductive smile on her face.
"THEY WON'T BE HAPPY UNTIL I DIE FROM LOSE OF BLOOD! I CAN TAKE ON HIGH-CLASS DEVILS AND EVEN MONSTER…BUT APPARENTLY I CAN'T TAKE ON THESE THREE GIRLS!"
Lance had shouted in his head, as he could feel the three beauties continued to press their collective busts against him.
Avalon Manor
After the incident in the hot springs, they had changed into their different clothes that weren't in tatters. They then went inside of a large mansion, which was located in the middle of the island and where the four of them would be living until the end of the summer break. Inside of the living room inside of the mansion, Lance was sitting on the couch in front of a table that had several different Knights of Chivalry badges in front of him. He had one of them in his hand and he was modifying and adjusting it using a small green magic circle.
While both Yumi and Jeanne were in front of the flat screen TV and currently playing a two player video game on a console, with Xenovia watching them out of curiosity. As the game continued to progress until "Winner" had flashed on the screen, after seeing that Jeanne had tossed her game controller in the air out of excitement and caught it.
"Hahaha, I won!"
Jeanne had proclaimed with a very childish smile on her face.
"Ugh, I lost!"
Yumi had groaned with an annoyed look on her face as she dropped her controller onto the ground.
"Hehehe, I'm the unbeatable Queen of Games."
"Humph, this game doesn't look all that difficult."
Xenovia had stated with a confident look on her face, while had also gained the attention of Jeanne.
"Huh? I take that as a challenge Xeno-Chan."
"I refuse to lose at something like this."
Xenovia had declared with a slight smirk on her face, as she picked up the controller that Yumi had dropped onto the floor. After seeing them starting to play the game with Xenovia being surprisingly good at the game they were playing, but Jeanne was quickly stepping up her game. While Yumi had got up from off the ground and sat down next to Lance who continued to modify the badges. She then had began to look at him with a curious look on her face.
"What're you doing, Lance-Kun?"
"I'm modifying the badges to have another function."
"What function?"
Yumi had decided to ask, but was stopped as Lance held one of them towards her beckoning her to try it out for herself. After taking the badge in her hand and she had pinned it onto her shirt collar, she then looked at the badge before touching.
"So, what is supp…?"
Yumi had asked as she took her hand off of it, but was stopped as a magic circle had appeared under her feet and she was completely covered in a bright bluish white light. Once the light had vanished, the clothing that Yumi was wearing before had changed. Yumi was now wearing a white modified sleeveless closed kimono that had stops just at her thighs, with a black sash wrapped around her waist, with black short worn under her kimono, with black arm warmers that extends up to her forearm and she was wearing long black boots that shows the her toes and the heel of her foot.
"What?"
Yumi had looked at the clothing that she was wearing with a slightly shocked look on her face, which had also caught the attention of Jeanne and Xenovia. She looked at the clothing and noticed that it felt easy for her to move around in.
"It's the other function that I had added to the badges of the Knights of Chivalry club, after a member touches the badge it changes their clothing to combat outfits that matches their battle style. These clothes are also more durable than normal clothing."
Lance had explained, as he directed their attention towards the other badges that were on the table in front of him.
"Wow, let me try!"
Upon seeing Yumi suddenly change instantly into her new battle outfit, Jeanne had jumped up from off of the ground after pausing the game that she was playing with Xenovia. She then picked up one of the badges and placed one of them onto her clothes. Like for Yumi after touching the badge, a magic circle had then appeared under her feet and she was surrounded with the same bluish white light. Once it vanished, she was wearing a very light breastplate worn over a blue clothing, with light armor covered her arms up her forearms, black shorts, black leggings and brown boots.
"Oh, this is so cool!"
Jeanne had squealed slightly as she examined the new clothing that she was currently wearing.
"This is interesting."
Xenovia then picked up her own club badge from off of the table and she placed it on her collar. Once she had pressed it, she was surrounded with a bright light and once it vanished, she was wearing clothing that looked to be a more modified version of the combat clothing that she had wore as an Exorcist. And she had admitted to herself that the clothing that she was wearing were comfortable easier to move around in.
"This is amazing."
She stated to herself with a very impressed look on her face.
"Well, Lance-Kun is a genius when it comes to inventing stuff like this. I wonder why you an Azazel don't get along though. You both share the same hobbies."
"It's not like we can't get along at some moments…well, I guess some of it is my fault though."
Lance had answered Yumi, however after hearing that another question of to why he thought that it was his fault that the two of them couldn't get along.
"How is it your fault?"
"Well, we can get along if I don't say anything to mock him. But, at times I just can't help it…sometimes he just makes it too easy to get to him. But, I guess I would be more interesting to meet Ajuka-San face to face."
"The current Beelzebub. Why?"
Xenovia had asked.
"Why not, Xenovia? The guys a true genius, not only did he create the Evil Piece and several other awesome inventions. I even heard that he had developed his demonic power to specialize in calculations and created a move move that's called the Kankara Formula, which allows him to control phenomenon through the use of equations and formulas, even control the attacks of his opponents."
Lance had spoke out his reasons to why had wanted to meet Ajuka, which hadn't really surprised them much as they already knew how he could be when it came to the subject of creating new inventions. After making a suddenly realizing to herself, Jeanne had looked towards him with a wondering look on her face.
"By the way, Lance-Kun could you teach me about how to use magic?"
Jeanne had suddenly asked, which had slightly confused and shocked those who were currently in the room with them.
"Why so suddenly?"
"Well, I'm already quite comfortable with using my Sacred Gear, but I also wanted to know more about magic so that I could increase my capabilities. I already know the basics that Magic is just the knowledge to control equations and you need to use your head to use calculations. And since I practically already do that when I use my Blade Blacksmith, it won't be that much trouble."
Jeanne had answered him with Lance beginning to think it over to himself.
"Well, I guess I could teach you how to use magic, but the most difficult magics takes more difficult types of calculations and equations. And there are those that doesn't take much equations, like warming up coffee that's cold. Or making fire like this."
Lance had explained as he held his hand out, a small magic circle had appeared in his hand and a flames were generated in the palm of his hand. Until he had finally dispersed of the flames in the palm of his hand.
"So~?"
Jeanne had asked with a great amount of anticipation, while she gave him to puppy dog eyes.
"Alright, fine. You don't have to give me the puppy dog eyes."
"Yes! Thank You, Lance-Kun!"
She had replied with a bright smile on her face, as she wrapped her arms around him and she then kissed him on his cheek. Lance then made a slightly surprised look on his face by what Jeanne had done so suddenly, after seeing the look on him face, she had smiled slightly mischievously.
"Oh, were you expecting a kiss on the lips. Then~"
Jeanne had said slightly seductively, as she puckered up her lips and were prepared to kiss him. However, like before she was stopped as both Yumi and Xenovia had pulled her away from him. After that had happened, Jeanne had pouted and glared at both of them with an annoyed look on her face.
"Yumi-Chan! Xeno-Chan! Why do you two always get in my way?!"
Jeanne had shouted at both of them wanting an answer from both of them, who only continued to stare at her blankly. Lance had started to laugh nervously at the tension that was going between the three of them as they continued to glare at each other.
"…So what would you three like for dinner tonight?"
Lance had decided to ask to try and end the conflict between the three of them, but it didn't really help in anything. As the tension between the three of them had begun to increase to the point where they started to raise their separate auras started to grow.
"…Okay, I'm just going to go for a walk."
Lance had said nervously, as he begun to walk outside of the living room and then they stepped outside of the mansion.
As he began to walk outside through the beach, he had noticed the sun had started to set signifying the end of the day. Lance had stopped walking then he took a seat on the beach and he just began to watch as the sun had begun to set.
"This place really is peaceful, I can't really notice anything wrong…huh."
As Lance continued to watch the sunset, he then noticed that the jewel that he had carried on his person had started begun to flicker more livelier than he first got it. After he pulled it out and held it in his hand, Lance had noticed that whatever was inside was reacting to something or someone that was there.
"…. …You. …."
As he was sitting there, he had suddenly heard the whispers of someone who was close to him. However, he couldn't understand what language that person was talking in.
"Who's there?"
Lance had asked as he stood up from the ground and begun to look around, but he couldn't see anyone around him.
"…. You are his…."
He heard heard the voice again, but this time he was sure that the voice had came from a young woman. After he had finally became capable of sensing a slight presence that was coming behind him, he had stood up and turned around. He looked had looked forward and he caught a quick glimpse of the woman and noticed that she was wearing a blue dress with no shoes on.
"I thought there wasn't supposed to be anyone else on this island. Hey, wait up!"
Lance had called out as he began to follow the person who was up in front of him, as he continued to venture deeper into the depth of the forest in Avalon. As he had continued to follow the unknown woman, but he had stopped and began to look around.
"How did I lose her?"
He had wondered to himself and he began look around, but noticed that he was currently in a place that he wasn't familiar with. Lance had looked and noticed that there was a stoned walkway right in front of him that leads to a shrine that has different statues that were circled around each other. Out of curiosity of what was up in front of him, Lance had continued to walk forward and he had stepped directly into the shrine.
"What?"
He was astounded by what had saw. One of the statues was of a king wearing royal clothing with his hand on top of a sword, while another one was sheathed near his hip. Standing on his left was a man who looked to be in his mid-twenties with long hair that he kept tied in the back, wearing robes that are worn by high-ranking Magicians and carrying a magic staff in his hand. Standing on the right of the king was a knight wearing the normal clothing of for a knight with two swords sheathed on his side.
And finally standing in between both the knight and the magician was a young looking girl wearing the garbs, which were worn by a witch completely with a hat. Lance had looked towards the four statues with a look of realization as he also noticed the inscriptions that were under them.
"King Arthur, Merlin Ambrosius, Sir Lancelot and Morgana Le Fey. Four of the most important figures of the Arthurian Myth are all right here."
"Not exactly."
Lance had heard a familiar voice coming from behind him, he turned around and noticed that Elaine was walking towards him with a slight smile on her face. As she stopped right next to him, she looked at the four statues with a great amount of admiration.
"They're all forever memorialized right here on this island for each of their separate accomplishments and their recognition. The Hero King, Arthur Pendragon who led each of the Knights of the Round Table along with Camelot until his death, while simultaneously wielding two of the strongest holy swords in existence. Merlin Ambrosius, the Magician who studied the demonic powers of Devils and he had soon developed the System of Magic used by Humans, while also advising King Arthur. The Hero Knight, Sir Lancelot the most powerful Knight compared to the Knights of the Round Table and King Arthur's strongest and most trusted companion, while wielding one of the strongest holy and one of the strongest demon swords. And lost but also not least King Arthur's younger sister, the first Witch Morgana Le Fay and Merlin's greatest student."
Elaine had listed each of them out while also putting her hands together and begun to pray, along with Lance who had soon joined in. Both of them had gave their prays to four of the greatest figures of their families' history, however a question had came to Elaine's mind and she looked towards him with a questioning look.
"Lance, how exactly did you get here? This place isn't exactly easy to find."
Elaine had asked.
"Well, I was following a woman wearing a blue dress. But, she had got away."
After Lance had mentioned the lady in the blue dress, Elaine had looked at him with a shocked look on her face, before breaking out in a wide grin and began to laugh out loud. And Lance had looked at her with a wondering look on his face.
"What're you laughing about?"
"I never thought that she would show herself, but I guess that it makes sense. She normally appears in front of her son's descendants."
"You mean that was…."
Lance had made a shocked look on his face by what he had just heard from Elaine, who had nodded her head in agreement.
"I first met her when I was a fourteen after…something tragic had happened. I came here and just sat down in front of the beach crying almost for hours, until I felt someone hugging me from behind. Even thought I didn't know who she was, I somehow felt like I didn't need to be afraid or to react and she just let me cry my heart out. …The Lady of the Lake, Sir Lancelot's mother and the eternal ruler of Avalon. She's bound here on Avalon and she has been watching over the descendants of King Arthur, Merlin, her son and Morgana. But, she can sometimes be really shy and only appears when you're alone."
Lance had took in everything that she had told him, but he had looked forward and noticed that there was a path that headed into another part of the shrine.
"What does that path lead to?"
Lance had decided to ask.
"That path leads to another shrine where the statue of the King of Avalon resides."
Elaine had answered, but it caused Lance even greater confusion.
"The King? I thought that the Lady of the Lake was the only ruler of Avalon."
"Yes, from the knowledge of everyone else she was the True Ruler of Avalon. Whenever a threat would arrive to try to take over Avalon that ranged from Evil Magicians, Demons and Monsters. A mighty creature would arrive on Avalon, who acted as a second Ruler and Guardian of Avalon."
Elaine had explained to Lance, who had looked forward towards the deeper part of the shrine and he begun to walk forward. As he continued to walk forward, he had stopped and he was shocked by what he was currently looking at. Standing in front of him was a statue that looked like the woman that he was following after holding her hand up, but had noticed that she had an ornament resembling a halo that floated around her neck.
And kneeling in front of her was a large dragon roughly around the same size and height, as Tannin with draconian markings on his chest, arms, shoulders and parts of his wings.
"A Dragon?"
Lance then held the jewel that was in his hand and noticed that it had continued to react almost like a child that had returned home. And his eyes had widened out of realization, and he had snapped his fingers with a smirk on his face.
"That's it."
Lance had declared to himself.
Several minutes later, Lance had walked back to the beach with the journal that Michael and Gabriel had given him. He was currently drawing a very complex magic circle that had mysterious high-tier equations from God of the Bible's journal on the ground using Secace as a tool. As he had continued to draw the magic circle, he had heard three very familiar voices coming from behind him.
"Lance-Kun, what're you doing?"
Yumi had asked.
"I figured out how to complete this Sacred Gear, due to the creature inside being in this place specifically."
"That's amazing! But, what does this place…?"
Jeanne had exclaimed excitedly, but was confused to how this place would allow him to completely this Sacred Gear. After he was finished with the magic circle, Lance had stabbed Secace in the ground and looked towards them.
"This era is completely odd, I don't know why, but there are several Sacred Gear possessors who're going through an odd evolution. Kiba who awoken his Holy Demonic Sword, Sword of Betrayer. Especially those who possess Longinus-Type Sacred Gears. If I didn't come back to Kuoh then I wouldn't have gotten my old memories back, then I wouldn't have met Oji-San or Okaa-San again, then they wouldn't have given me this jewel and I wouldn't have brought it here again."
"Again?"
"This creature who resides in this jewel had originally lived on this island before being sealed."
They were surprised by what Lance had told him, he then placed the jewel in the very middle of the magic circle and he had stepped away from it.
"So here comes the birth of a new Sacred Gear."
Lance had declared as he placed his hands together and he began to chant several incantations as the magic circle had begun to glow with a bright white brilliant light. The light that was generated from the magic circle was so great that everyone there had the cover their eyes due to the brightness. As the continued to shine, the only one of them with their eyes almost closed was Lance. Several different other different formulas starting to circle around the complex magic circle.
His eyes had widened as he heard the roar of a dragon coming from the inside of the magic circle and his eyes widened after he saw the mass of light shaping into a dragon.
"This is a Sacred Gear being born."
All of the light had then gathered around into a single collective mass, before the light had finally vanished a strong pulse of power had spread throughout Avalon. Once the light had finally vanished everyone had then opened their eyes and everyone looked forward towards the middle of the magic circle. And in the middle of the magic circle wasn't the jewel, but an actual living creature. It was a small European white dragon that is twice the size of a baby dragon with small wings and a blue jewel embedded into its forehead lying down on the ground with its eyes closed.
"It's a dragon, what kind of Sacred Gear…?"
Jeanne had asked in wonder, along with everyone else.
"It's an Independent Avatar-Type, a type of Sacred Gear that takes the form of a living creature with their own will and instincts."
Lance had answered, as he started to approach the small dragon along with everyone else and Yumi had begun to look at him with a wondering look on her face.
"Have you ever met an Avatar-Type user before."
"I had actually met two of people who possess them and they're even both classed as one of the first thirteen Longinus. The Magician Association's Demise Girl who wield Absolute Demise, which summon an ice princess doll that possesses immense ice based powers that are capable of instantly freezing an entire area turning it into a frozen world even a small country if she wanted to. And the Grigori's Slash Dog who wields the Canis Lykaon, which summons a black dog that has the ability to produce blades from its bod, transform itself into a sword and attack through shadows."
Lance had answered them with a slight smirk on his face, as he clearly showed great admiration for both of the Longinus users. But after hearing those names, Xenovia had made a knowing look on her face.
"I've heard about both of them from the Vatican, the one known as the Demise Girl is the strongest user of the Absolute Demise. And Slash Dog is supposedly one of their strongest fighters even being capable of altering an entire mountain dying it in darkness after using Balance Breaker."
Xenovia had spoke out as she noticed Lance kneeling in front of the small dragon. As he continued to examine the body of the dragon, he had reached his hand out and placed his hand on its head also touching the jewel that was on its head. After coming into contact with it, a sudden name had came into his head.
"Avalon Drakon."
Lance had mumbled out the name of this sacred gear and the small dragon had started to stir awake letting out a slight yawn. It then got up and started to shake its body, then looked towards them with its green eyes looking towards them.
"You're probably confused about where you…."
[Why are you talking to me like that?]
The Dragon had asked with a slightly confused tone of voice. Lance and the others were shocked look on their face after hearing it actually talking back.
"You actually talk. I don't remember seeing an Independent Avatar-Type being capable of talking, but I could be due to you being a dragon."
[Sacred Gear? Oh, right…God of the Bible sealed my soul inside of a jewel that was being prepped. ….]
The Dragon had begin to think to itself, as though it was trying to look through its own memory, but it had only let out a disappointed sigh.
"Are you alright?"
Lance had asked him with a tone of worry.
[No, my memories are kind of shattered…. The last thing that I remember was sparring with my old friend Tannin. …I'm pretty sure that I'm currently on Avalon right now. And you look similar to Sir Lancelot, while also releasing an aura similar to Merlin along with an Angel.]
The dragon had said with a wondering tone.
"Well, I'm actually both of their descendants and as for the Angel part, I'll explain that part later. Well, I guess I should give out my introduction. My name is Lancelot Du Lac, but I prefer to be called Lance."
[Very well, my name is Avon, the Avalon Dragon.]
Avon had officially given out his name after Lance had given out his introduction. Meanwhile, inside of the forest a familiar woman had looked towards what had happened with a slight smile on her face.
"…So you've finally returned. My old friend."
A/N: And there goes the chapter Twenty-Two of The Magic Knight, this chapter had just showed the training that they each when through. First it was Jeanne and Yumi training for their mastery of their sword type weaponry, with both of them holding their own against each other. Second, was Xenovia who going through her training to master you control over Durandal. And third was Lance's special training with Elaine. Then both Lance and Xenovia had a small part with each other, before they were interrupted by both Yumi and Jeanne.
It was revealed that there was a shrine on Avalon dedicated to the four important figures of Arthurian Legend, along with the Lady of the Lake being only slightly introduced. Finally Lance had finished the Sacred Gear, Avalon Drakon and Avon is back into the story with a different form. This Sacred Gears, abilities will be revealed in the later chapter. Also for an image the clothing that Yumi was wearing was similar to the one worn by Sakura Saber from Fate/Grand Order. While the one Jeanne was wearing was similar to Philia from Sword Art Online.
