The Magic Knight

by HolyKnightX

Lancelot Du Lac the descendant of both Sir Lancelot and Merlin. After completing his training at the Order of Knights since arriving there at the age of seven, Lancelot returns to his hometown and makes his presence known to the Devils of Kuoh Academy. Armed with his swords and magic, he is prepared for any threat that comes forth. (Slight AU Story).

40. Day with a Norse God

Welcome to the next chapter of The Magic Knight, before starting the story. Let's answer some reviews:

Altajir95: Thanks. Both of them does have similar interests in magic. That was actually their second kiss with one another. Yuuma has a cute side to her that she won't let anyone other than Lancelot.

Wacko12: Kuroka is a reincarnated Devil so that won't work.

Tohka123: Thanks. Lancelot and Rossweisse do have a lot in common.

Justin D: A battle between the Lancelot Team, Gremory Team, Vali Team (no Le Fay), Barakiel vs Loki, Fenrir, and Fenrir's two sons. Of course, this battle will be intense…I will make sure that this battle is intense. I enjoyed that quote and you are right, it does match, Lancelot.

Zero: I will be doing The Twin Dragons next.

Frost: Okay, I think that we got off to a bad start. I know all about the actual religion, but I want to use it without copying or else the things inside of the story wouldn't be your own work. There are a lot of anime where Lucifer is a Devil instead of an Angel or Fallen Angel yet he is still referred to as the Morning Star and who knows, he may have been an Angel, but then why wouldn't Lucifer in DxD be a Fallen Angel as none of the others who fell turned into Devils.

Besides instead of looking at it from the standpoint of the actual religion, try and look at it from the standpoint of DxD, all of the Devils of the first generation were made using the flesh of Lilith. And it was only mentioned that the Angels served God, but it was never said about how they were created and barely any of the Angels were introduced into the story so we can't say that any of them are related by blood as none of the Devils from the First Generation were related by blood.

Guest 36: Hello again. The reason that I took it in a negative way is due to how you said it…in all of the reviews despite my explanation. For one, you are comparing Lancelot to people in the current volumes in an attempt to make a point…even though, I kept saying that there hasn't been a single situation where Lancelot has gotten serious. Angels in DxD are not similar to Angels from other media, so the point that you are attempting to make is invalid. It hasn't even been mentioned of what Gabriel can do in a fight or what fighting type she is except that she rivals Serafall.

Sairaorg is as strong as he is now due to him focusing on his physical prowess as a Power-Type as that was all that he had to rely on results in his enormous touki. Ki and life force is based on the individuals intense physical or Senjutsu training and Lancelot is a Wizard-Technique Type by nature (see the difference between them).

There wasn't a single moment where I ever said that any of them were perfect, all that I said was that I put them all down different roads to become stronger and not making them all powerful at the start as it would be fun to read if the enemies were just one shot.

It didn't sound like constructive criticism based on how you worded it twice. In the first review that you left and I replied to, I gave a plausible answer and you took it the wrong way and started leaving reviews like these. You said both times that Lancelot is weak based purely on how he fights compared to Issei. The most important reason is, you don't know who I am or what I'm planning for The Magic Knight in the future.

I don't mean to bring up the past, but Houki gave out actual constructive criticism in the previous take of The Magic Knight and that allowed me to bring it to this point and I am thankful for that. And Houki didn't deserve any the comments she was getting due to it, as her ideas for DxD are both great and creative.

Krmk: I'm glad that you liked the chapter.

The Last Kenpachi: I'm thinking about Valerie. PM you about what?

Hellspam: I'm glad that you are looking forward to the fight with Loki and that you enjoy the cute moments with Yuuma.

DdraigTrueEmperor9: Thanks. Yes, it was good to read how Yuuma acted with Ariel different from how she treated everyone else (except for Lancelot for obvious reasons). I'm glad you liked the moments with Lancelot with Yuuma and Rossweisse. It is good to read about new characters that aren't Devils. Compared to Devil, the Angels and Fallen Angels, are left in the shadows except for a couple of mentions. I mean with the Super Devils, Longinus users, potential Longinus users, Holy Swords, Demon Swords, Holy-Demonic Swords, and other things compared to both the Angels and Fallen Angels how can either side match. Then with the attack on Trihexa, it looks as if Heaven took the biggest hit. Hades is like Zamasu from Dragon Ball Super: Hades got scared of Sirzechs, found Lilith and created an army of Devils with two OP Super Devils and some with the potential to become Super Devils.

Guest: I think that would be a hilarious experience for Lancelot. I mean it would have to be photos from her "Personal Collection of her Adorable Angelic Child".

Wacko12: I found another opening for Lancelot's Brave Saints.

Guest 2: That does sound like a great song to describe the two of them and their "shaky" grandson and grandfather relationship.

Guest 3: That sounds like a hilarious scene. The bluenette trained in the Church from a young age vs the raven-haired half-fallen angel who is the daughter of Azazel.

Kuro excalibur: That sounds like something that Xenovia would do, continuing to chop off all the heads of a creature that grows multiple heads and something the Yuuma will say to her.

Raequan Ervin: Thanks. I think that could be a good idea for Astolfo to be a former member of the Hero Faction, but I may just add him or her to Sona's Peerage.

Day with a Norse God

It was a single day after the arrival of the Chief-God from the Norse Faction, Odin joined with his Valkyrie Escort, Rossweisse. It was also the day that the Gremory Group were supposed to escape Odin around town after returning from an event for the Oppai Dragon program sponsored by the House of Gremory. The growing popularity of a program about a breast-loving dragon still baffled a number of people, but the children of the Underworld loved it, so that was a good thing at least.

Located on the first floor of one of the three underground basements of the Du Lac Resident, there is a spacious training room designed by the Ambrosius Household; its designed to be remarkably durable to where even their most destructive attacks were to be launched, it wouldn't cause any serious damage; it also has a number of other important functions for the purpose of training.

The ones inside of this training area were the full members of the Lancelot Team joined by Yuuma and Ariel. Each of them was dressed in their own tracksuits that had their own personal designs on them.

And currently, the first ones shown training were―

Xenovia came rushing at Yumi slashing Durandal, but it wasn't wrapped in its usual destructive aura, as a matter of fact, it barely had much of its aura wrapped around it. This form of training is meant for her to limit Durandal's destructive aura and improve her control. When Yumi heard that Xenovia wanted to start technique training with her, it made her ecstatic to hear that she wanted her assistance in improving.

"Hah!"

"Oh."

Both Xenovia and Yumi continued their training with one another, both of them using their speed that reached a superhuman level to rush as one another. There was a series of white sparks in the air from both their swords clashing against one another. Xenovia used a combination of both her superior arm strength and Durandal's own weight to strike Yumi with a remarkable force that also created wind pressure.

Yumi endured the first strike from Xenovia using Masamune, but the force sent her staggering in another direction. As soon as her feet touched the ground, Xenovia charged at her again slashing at her a number of times, this time covering Durandal in a great amount of holy aura.

"See Xenovia, you can do it if you tried," that happy thought came to time into her head before she smirked with a look of confidence. "That doesn't mean that I won't be giving up."

Seeing that it would be almost impossible to receive that attack again, Yumi began using aura to reinforce her physical aptitude to a greater degree, while focusing Masamune's own holy aura. The two of their attacks started to get heated they met one another, from further away it looked as if there were a clash of holy aura.

---

In another location―

"O Light! Ha!"

In the air was Irina with her white wings spread and she fired off several spears of light, all of the spears were large in size. All of them could cause injuries to at least a Mid-Class Devil. Irina soon launched all the light spears at her lone opponent, which was revealed to be Jeanne.

"Here I come, Jeanne-chan!"

Each of the attacks had precision aimed in order to cause actual damage. At the attacks aimed at her, she smiled without making a single holy sword in order to counterattack. Instead, Jeanne had avoided one of them with a single movement of her body. Irina stared at what happened with a look of disbelief not wanting to believe that Jeanne had avoided her attacks by dancing at god-speed.

As if Jeanne were performing a graceful dance using nimble movements and amazing footwork, she dodged all of the light spears aimed at her.

"La~ La~ La~"

She sang a tune in a cheerful tone while dodging all of the light attacks aimed at her. If this dance were to be named, then it would be called the God-Speed Dance.

"Fine! How about this?!"

Irina called out as she dove creating a light sword and slashing down towards her opponent.

Seeing Irina come at her for close combat instead of long-ranged, Jeanne made a holy sword in her hands and blocked the light sword in Irina's hand starting their clash. Irina started to aim at Jeanne using a number of precise and trained assaults. However, all her attacks were either deflected using her sword or avoided using nimble movements.

"I can't seem to get a single hit on Jeanne-chan like this. She is not only avoiding all of my attacks, but she is also retaliating using her dance-like footwork and movements," Irina thought as she made more attempt at hitting Jeanne. "I heard that there was a Knight among the Chivalric Order who had inherited the spirit of a saint, who has remarkable talent in swordsmanship and grace that made it look as if she were dancing…the Sword Dancing Saint."

Irina wondered as she continued to spar with Jeanne.

Though Irina could tell there wasn't that much of a difference between their swordsmanship, she was at a huge disadvantage when it came to speed and footwork. Irina thought of a plan in her head and stepped away from Jeanne, in a single movement, she fired off several spears of light in Jeanne's direction.

Seeing this attack, Jeanne started using amazing footwork to avoid each of the attacks; but, as a result of how narrow some of them were, there were some that she couldn't avoid, resulting in a slight tear in a part of her tracksuit. A holy aura started to cover her holy sword, then she started to break apart a number of the light spears that she couldn't dodge.

"Huh?"

Jeanne glanced forward and noticed that Irina wasn't in the same position that she was in before, but later sensed her presence on her left side.

"Irina-chan moved at the same moment she fired off her light spears, that was a pretty smart move."

Jeanne smiled as Irina slashed down and breaking her light sword in the process, as soon as she made an attempt to block it.

"I got ya Jeanne-chan," Irina proclaimed.

"I don't think so!"

Jeanne formed another holy sword under her feet and raised her leg in order to blocked Irina's light sword, showing off her flexibility.

"Aw, come on, Jeanne-chan!"

"Hahaha! I'm sorry, but I won't lose just like that!"

And just like that, both Jeanne and Irina continued their match with one another—

---

Sitting on the sidelines watching as the four of them trained with one another was Ariel dressed in her own tracksuit and hugged her legs. She continued to watch as her seniors continued to practice with one another in order to get a better grasp in their perspective weapons and technique. It was exactly what her father wanted for her, to go out into the Human World and learn from Lance and the others.

Soon enough, Yuuma came dressed in a black-colored tracksuit and took a seat next to Ariel, the latter stared at her with a smile.

"So, what do you think about them?"

"Amazing. I can tell that Yumi-nee has remarkable speed and technique, including her skill in wielding Masamune almost as if she had it since birth. Xenovia-nee is also talent in swordsmanship, but she has a lot of more difficult training ahead of her if she wants to master Durandal. Jeanne-nee is as skilled as Yumi-nee, but her footwork and flexibility along with her mastery in Blade Blacksmith are at a different level. I can see why Lord Michael chose Irina-nee as his Ace, she has the same talent and skills in using swords as Xenovia-nee and her potential."

"That was some amazing perceptive skills," Yuuma said with a smile on her face. "Though why are you adding -nee to their names?"

"Oh. All of them said that since I called you ane that I should add nee to their names."

"O-Oh, they did, didn't they," Yuuma spoke in an almost uneven tone as she glanced to the side using an equally uneven smile. "Those four certainly work fast, I thought that I could at least enjoy being her only older sister for a while."

"Though, I won't forget that first person that I could call my big sister."

Yuuma stared at Ariel, it was as if the young angel were giving off a sparkling aura as she smiled at the half-fallen angel.

"She's so pure and innocent that it feels as if you're being purified being this close to her," Yuuma said as she wrapped her arms around Ariel rubbing her cheek against hers. "But, I don't care! You're just too precious for me not to hug!"

[It is just a thing for you and Lancelot to hug the things that you two are obsessed with?]

Stabbing into the ground further away from them, was the Avalon Drakon in its sword form, placed in the middle of an intricate magic-circle. A number of different magical text started to wrap around it, a mysterious light started to wrap around the blade as if it were attempting to locate something inside of the sacred gear. This meant that as of now Lance wasn't using it during his training.

"Well, I can't say much for Lance-kun, but dragons…or in my case dragon sacred gear users tend to be a bit stingy with the things or people that they love."

Yuuma replied as she continued to hug onto Ariel.

[I can understand that, as I am a dragon. Though, I guess that it would be most accurate to say that I was a dragon when I had my original body.]

[It is the burden that we, dragons who were killed and sealed in these weapons.] Qīnglóng replied in his usual respectful manner. [Though, a number of us did fight in the end in a manner that made humans both revere and fears us leaving our own marks in history.]

"I heard about dragons from papa," Ariel spoke up catching their attention. "He told me that he once fought a number of bad dragons in the past, but the ones that he never thought that he would have to get involved with the two Heavenly Dragons."

[I wish that could be true for all of us, I neither died in combat as a dragon nor could continue to live as a normal dragon.] Avon sighed causing the attention of the three of them. [Due to all of the tests ran by that partner of mine, I remember the cause of my "death". It was an accumulation of curses and hatred of the demonic entities that I have slain in the past as the Guardian of Avalon.]

"What do you mean about that?"

This time Yuuma questioned.

[It wouldn't be incorrect to say that I am indeed stronger than the Prison Dragon, Vritra, but I can't say I hold a candle to him in terms of technique…as the two of us has never met before officially. I did hold other unique abilities, one of them if I remember correctly allowed me to seal the spirits of difficult evil spirits and demonic entities within myself and break down all of their consciousness until their cases to exist. Though there was a drawback, I guess that I accumulated too many of them so their combined their strength into one final curse that put me into a permanent comatose state. And it appears as if their resentment for me still remains even now.]

"Something like that actually happened," Yuuma replied in a surprised manner with a look of interest that made it obvious that she was the daughter of Azazel. "I guess its no wonder why you are called the Evil Banishing Dragon. So, is that the reason why Lance-kun has you in that magic circle?"

[Yes, he is attempting to locate all their presence and purify them for good.]

"That's Lancelot for you."

"Speaking of which," Yuuma added after Ariel. "Qīnglóng? How exactly did you die? I heard that all four of the sacred beasts were akin to divine beings and someone killing all four of you is insane."

[….]

"Uh, Qīnglóng?"

[….]

Hearing her question, Qīnglóng remained silent.

[Why is he silent?]

Avon questioned.

"He gets like this whenever I ask him that question, I thought if another dragon were involved, then he would open up to me," Yuuma sighed as she glanced away from him, but she caught the attention of an intense fight. "I think that those two are really going at it?"

Hearing her reply, Ariel directed her sights towards the two individuals training in front of them.

---

Further away from them were both Lance and Percy, both were dressed in their tracksuits standing in a fighting stance. For Lance, it was a regular stance that most practitioners in hand-to-hand combat would state, while Percy took a peculiar stance that seemed almost ancient. Though, the two of them had beats of sweat dripping from their forehead.

Soon enough, both of them charged forward at one another at god-speed, the first to make their move was Percy who threw a couple of fast jabs most used in boxing. Lance held out his arms in a defensive manner and felt the weight behind each of his punches.

"Each of his attacks is heavy. No wonder he was regarded as one of the Top Monster Hunters among the Greek Faction who could fight using his physical prowess, but…." Lance thought as he was able to broke through his serious of attacks. "I felt heavier punches from Sairaorg!"

Lance launched a straight punch at Percy, but the latter reacted in time to avoid it. Percy noticed that there was a slight mark on his cheek causing him to smirk with a joyous look.

"Hahaha! Here I thought that you were just a beast in swordsmanship and magic!"

"Looks whose talkin'! Aren't you the guy who fights with a shield and sword?! Don't forget who I am descendant from, the original Lancelot was a renowned as a monster in various forms of combat…one of them was unarmed combat! The same thing could be said about the original Perseus."

Both of them smirked at one another as they stood in a prepared stance and both of them charged at one another again. Fast and sharp punches were thrown from both of them prescriptively, but all of their attempts were avoided at the last second. For the strikes that did make contact with them, the two of them could feel the weight behind their attacks.

As Percy continued to launch punches at Lance, he smirked as he had a plan in mind. He put strength in his legs and aimed a sudden sharp kick aimed at Lance's footing causing him to lose his balance and fall over. Before he hit the ground, Lance stopped himself with both his arms, he looked and noticed that Percy was going for wrestling-like motions. Noticing his movements, he pushed himself up into the air using his arm strength and landed on the ground.

"Boxing. Kicking. And Wrestling," Lance said as he landed on the ground in a prepared stance. "That is the martial art from the Greek Faction, Pankration."

"Oh? I was going to use the fact that you didn't know about, but I guess that backfired."

"I did my research on different factions as a kid. I heard that it was created by the original Heracles and Theseus. You won't get me off guard like that."

"Then, let's continue this match."

Percy replied as he stood in another Pankration stance and charged at Lance, while the latter did the exact name thing. The two charged at one another and continued their match with one another.

---

Ariel and Yuuma watched as the two of them continued fighting against one another. For Ariel, she was staring at her own personal hero for a long time training in front of her.

"Wow, those two are really amazing," Ariel said with a bright smile on her face. "Seeing Lancelot fought up and close like this is better than watching him. He's already around the same level as a Seraph with his ten wings and he is well-rounded in combat even without using his full magic power. I had already known that Percy was a capable opponent even as a human, but his strength increased further after he became an Angel…a Top-Tier one at that."

"Yes, he is able to keep up with Lance-kun in straight combat," Yuuma said as she started to stand up and began stretching her arms. "It must get tired watching them fighting like this. Don't forget, this is training for you two Ariel. So, do you want to go a couple of rounds with me?"

"H-Huh? Y-You and M-Me?"

Ariel questioned with a shocked stare.

"Yes, I also really wanted to see the Holy Flames for the first time. I mean, I heard Uncle Barakiel talk about having a rivalry with Uriel in the past."

Ariel heard her reasons, and she couldn't disagree with that. She followed them so that she could learn more about the Human World, but also to grow stronger as an angel. Ariel stood up along with Yuuma, then started to stretch her arms and legs. She followed Yuuma as she started to walk in a spot further from where the Avalon Drakon was placed.

Yuuma later stopped and formed a condensed spear of light instead of using her Azure Dragon Spear, she didn't want to fight using her full strength at first, as she just wanted to see Ariel's strength. Once the silver-white haired girl stood in front of her, she started to let out a calming breath as if for her to prepare for their fight.

"Calm down. Calm down. Calm down."

Ariel repeated that in her head as if she were saying a mantra to herself.

Letting out one final breath, Ariel directed her eyes towards Yuuma, the latter noticed the seriousness behind them as if she were another person. Ariel held both her hands out, then both started to spark as if flames were starting to be made…until Holy Flames covered both her hands.

"It looks as if she is serious now."

Yuuma mumbled to herself as she spun she light spear around in her hand, and stood in a posture that one would see from a martial artist. She believed that Ariel would fire off a fireball instead of a stream of flames at her, so Yuuma prepared herself for long-ranged attacks thinking that the young silver-white haired angel was "that" kind of combatant.

But, she made a mistake in her initial judgment.

Ariel instead propelled herself forward using her holy flames giving her enough speed in order to catch Yuuma off-guard for a moment. Ariel held out one and shaped a miniature fireball in her hand and fired it off in front of her, then at the same time propelled herself backward using a stream of holy flames shot out from under her feet. Once Ariel landed on the ground, she noticed that there was a change in the explosion of flames caused by that fireball.

All of the flames started to gather around, not by the will of their user, but by following the direction of a spear. Yuuma spun her light spear around with enough force that the flames gathered around them, keeping them from burning her physical body and redirected them into the air. She let out a breath of relief, Yuuma tapped the bottom of her light spear onto the ground and glanced towards Ariel with an impressed look on her face.

"Wow! I didn't expect that from the shy Ariel."

"Well, my papa taught me a bunch of creative ways to use my flames," Ariel replied being happy about the lessons that she received from her father. "He also taught me how to calm my nerves in either training or in a fight."

"Well, then let's continue."

Yuuma spun her spear around in her hand, then charged forward at Ariel aiming her spear forward. As the young angel noticed something odd about the tip of the spear, she held her hand out to the side and fired off a stream of flames that propelled her out of the way. Coming out from the spear were several small shards of light that stabbed themselves into the wall behind her.

"Now, let's see what you do about this."

Yuuma stated as she started to fire off a barrage of light spear shards at Ariel, the latter used the propulsion of her holy flames to move out of the way and into the air in order to avoid all of them. While in the air, Ariel had gathered a number of different fireballs in her hands and aimed all of them at Yuuma. Before the first could reach her, she sliced it in half using her light spear and moved out of the way just before it exploded.

All of the other fireballs started to alter their trajectory, following after Yuuma, as she continued moving around in order to avoid all of them. Taking another step forward, Yuuma turned around by turning in her heel and fired off a series of light shards at the fireballs; as all of the light shards pierced them, Yuuma caused the shards to explode in an expansion of light dispersing the flames.

Seeing that her long-ranged attacks were being dealt with, Ariel held her hands towards behind her and fired off a stream of flames. She used the propulsion the propel herself forward at high-speeds towards Yuuma, wanting to get in close combat due to the length of Yuuma's spear not being suited for close-quarters combat. Once she stepped in her range, Ariel started firing off a small number of fireballs in order to not get caught in her own fire attacks, especially in this range.

From close-range, Ariel fired off small-scale fire blasts at short range, beginning to pressure Yuuma, who held little option in order to avoid the full brunt of these attacks.

"Her method of fighting is incredibly versatile," Yuuma wondered as she used the length of her spear to block attacks aimed at her, being unable to utilize its blade at this close proximity. "Did her father teach her how to fight like this or did she come up with it herself?"

As Ariel continued to fight at this close-range, Yuuma felt as if she saw a similar fighting style like this before, and it became more apparent as Ariel let out a burst of light generated from her flames blinding Yuuma for just a second. Ariel held both her hands out gather holy flames in her hands and fired it off as a large fireball. After coming into contact with Yuuma, it caused a large explosion that wrapped her completely and caught the attention of those who were training in other parts of the area.

"Wow," Percy whistled as he stared at the size of the explosion where both he and Lance stood. "Looks like we got more than just a little firecracker among us."

Lance watched on impressed by the performance of the younger angel, but he knew that attack wouldn't be enough to take Yuuma out of a fight.

"I hope that didn't hurt her too much," Ariel said to herself. "I can't adjust the power of larger flames like that."

"I didn't expect that from ya Ariel."

Yuuma's voice came from the flames, as a single shape could be seen from the inside of the flames. Just before the flames exploded, she wrapped herself in her ten fallen angel wings, protecting herself from the full brunt of Ariel's attack. Using the wind pressure generated from her wings, Yuuma pushed away from the flames.

"You really are a number one fan of Lance-kun," Yuuma replied causing Ariel's face to turn reddened from embarrassment. "The way that you fight and move around is a lot similar to how Lance-kun used to fight when he was a trainee. I can't believe you were able to replicate his movements like that and altered it to match your fighting style."

"I-I just thought that Lancelot's fighting style matched what papa was attempting to teach me during my training in order to control my Holy Flames."

Ariel said in a nervous tone as she poked her fingers together looking down at the ground.

"Wow, that was amazing Ariel-chan!"

"I would expect nothing less from the daughter of Lord Uriel."

Jeanne and Irina had come out of nowhere and shouted in an excited tone causing the young angel to let out a slight streak. Soon enough, Yumi and Xenovia followed after them glancing at Ariel with an impressed look on her face.

"I thought that your movements looked familiar. To think that you could follow someone with such a complex fighting as Lance-kun," Yumi said in a surprised tone. "If you need any help in training your techniques. You could come to me for help. …it would be easier to help you compare to Xenovia."

"…what was that Yumi?"

Xenovia questioned making a slight pout, after hearing that last part from Yumi in a more teasing tone; the latter stuck her tongue out.

"You did put up a good fight for your first time," Lance said as he placed a hand on the top of her head, and gave her his classic smirk. "And you can only get better from here."

---

After hearing all the praise that she was receiving from everyone, Ariel started to gain a deeper shade of red from her cheeks, then steam started to waft out from her head. Unable to take it any longer, Ariel covered her face using both her hands. This caused Lance and the others to chuckle a bit after seeing the cute reaction that Ariel had given them.

It has been a couple of short days since the arrival of the Chief-God, Odin and since, then he has dragged everyone in the Gremory Group to a number of different locations acting as his guards. They had to escort him to Japanese-style restaurants and amusement parks. Of course, there were some adult places that neither of them were allowed in due to their age, and so all of them had to wait outside for him. And after their experience for the past three days, it was decided that the Lancelot Team would escort him today.

Today, this morning, Odin came to the Du Lac Resident and said where he wanted to go to next. And it was a―

"The Water Park? You want to go to a Water Park?"

Lance was the first person to ask that question to Odin as he took a seat at the dining room of the Du Lac Resident. Next to him was Rossweisse, who looked a bit shocked about the location where he wanted to go as if he didn't talk to her about it beforehand. Since hearing that the two of them would be coming, Lance and the others made breakfast for them.

"Well, there is a water park in Tokyo that we could all go to."

"Oh, it will be fun going to a Water Park. We never find the time to go to one before, since we always have to fight something supernatural."

Jeanne said in a cheerful manner after Yumi brought that up.

"I was planning on going with the Gremory Kids," Odin said as he took a bite of the food in front of him. "But it looks as if they had other things they wanted to do."

After hearing, Odin said that Lance and the others, even Rossweisse stared at him as if they already thought of the reason as to why the Gremory Group didn't want to go out and guard Odin anymore. In just a short couple of days, a number of them had heard a couple of complaints from them about the Norse God's own perverse attitude.

"Lancelot, I must say, this is delicious," Rossweisse stated with a bright smile on her face, as she took a bite out of the pancakes. "These pancakes are so soft and sweet."

Rossweisse made an expression that Lance found adorable, he couldn't seem to figure out why she was by herself without a boyfriend. Based on his own perception, anyone would be lucky to have someone close to being like Rossweisse, since she's not just smart, but beautiful that could outshine models.

"Hmm, is there something wrong Lancelot?"

"Huh? No, there's nothing wrong. I'm just happy to hear that you liked the breakfast."

"Maybe he was thinking about how you would look in a swimsuit," Odin said out loud without the slightest bit of hesitance causing Rossweisse's face to become a bit reddened. "It's a shame that a Valkyrie such as herself letting her figure go to waste. Continue to act like that and you'll end up being alone forever."

"I-I-I-I…AHHH, AT THIS POINT I WON'T BE ABLE TO FIND A BOYFRIEND AND I'LL REMAIN A LONELY VALKYRIE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!"

Rossweisse started letting out a loud wail as tears began coming from her eyes almost like a waterfall.

All of them had seen the emotionless distress that Rossweisse was put through on a daily basis, and it had always come from this Norse God. There was no person who deserved that kind of emotional abuse, this is more unfair since Rossweisse still guards Odin despite all of this abuse.

"Alright, I've had enough of listening to this," Lance said out loud getting out of his chair and began to walk in the direction of Odin surprising everyone with the serious look on his face. "Look, Lord Odin, Chief-God or not, you shouldn't talk to Rossweisse like that all of the time, she spends the entire time diligently doing her job as your bodyguard in spite of all the emotional abuse that she gets on a daily basis from you…she even acts like a servant. It doesn't matter if she doesn't have a boyfriend, any guy in the world would be lucky to at least get to talk to Rossweisse."

Everyone was surprised that Lance actually talked to a Chief-God like that for Rossweisse though, it didn't surprise the ones who knew him. Odin who heard that from him looked down with his remaining eye being obscured due to the shadow of his hair, he gave off a presence that caused those inside of the dining room to shutter under the pressure, even Lance felt somewhat unnerved from the presence, but he continued to remain strong and stood his ground.

"Young Lad, you dare talk to a god in such a manner," Odin said in a serious tone for the first time since he met and stared at him with his magic eye shining with a bluish glow. "Do you know what happens next?"

Lance started to tense up as if prepping for anything that the Norse God might do, but it instead turns out―

"Hahaha, I was right about you Lancelot," Odin let out a loud hearty laugh as he placed both his hands on both his shoulders before wrapping his arms around him into a hug. Lance noticed that he didn't add either brat or young, he just called him by his name. "You know how many people would just hold their tongue to a god and not speak their mind, though there are some who can read minds. When a person who has enough courage to speak for themselves and others…even to a god, then that person truly is a person worthy of the title of a Hero."

Hearing that from Odin, who for a period acted in nothing but a perverse manner, even for Rossweisse and the others stared at him with a look of shock. Odin glanced towards his Valkyrie.

"Rossweisse, you'll regret it if you let this one get away."

Once again Rossweisse gained a luminous blush on her cheeks.

---

Soon after that, it was decided that everyone would do going to the Water Park tomorrow, after hearing that all of the girls decided to go out shopping for swimsuits. Lance remained in the house planning on inviting a couple of more people since the Gremory Group wanting nothing else to do with Odin for a while. Currently, inside of the room "shared" between both Sona and Serafall (Sona refused at first, but Serafall well started to act like Serafall).

Said Leviathan stood in front of the mirror inside of their room dressed in her formal wear holding two outfits in front of her on a hanger; one of those outfits was her classic pink magical girl outfit and the second was a blue version of it.

Serafall seemed to be switching from one to the other as if she was incapable of deciding between the two and displayed it be mumbling to herself.

"Hmm, I can't decide," Serafall hummed out loud. "Pink is nice, but it's hard to say no to the limited edition blue."

Sona who was inside the room stared at her with a confused look with her eye twitching a bit.

"What am I doing here Onee-sama?"

"Huh? Don't be cruel, Sona-chan. Your dear Onee-sama needed help picking out which outfit to wear to her TV show interview," Serafall explained as she swung around in a cheerful fashion and faced her younger sister. "And I wanted my dear Sona-chan to help me."

"*Sigh* Everyone coddles you too much."

Sona sighed out loud thinking about how Odin was downstairs beforehand, while she was called in to assist her sister in this. Though, she was stumped as Serafall held the blue magical girl outfit in front of Sona with a genuine smile on her face.

"Hey, Sona-chan," Serafall started in a begging tone. "Can you please try this on!"

"Come again?"

"It'll help me get a better understanding of what to put on."

"I refuse."

Sona said in a serious tone and expression as she stared directly into the eyes of her older sister, who was just a bit shorter in comparison. Her expression started to falter as she noticed tears forming in the corners of Serafall's eyes as she developed a saddened expression. Serafall then started rolling around in front of Sona curled up like a child whose parents had just told them they couldn't have something that they wanted.

"Waaaah! If you won't wear it then I'll give up being a magical girl! I don't care about that work anymore."

"You're wrong if you believe that throwing a tantrum can get to everything," Sona said in a tone knowing that it was just a lie. "You and I both know that you won't give up being a Magical Girl."

"Ahhhh! Fine, then I'll destroy Gabriel! It's about time me and her settled things!"

"You can't destroy the Gabriel-san," Sona said in a tone knowing that Serafall would actually do something like that considering her "history" with Gabriel. "She's Lance-kun's mother."

"I'm desperate Sona-chan!"

Serafall began to become more aggressive and childish, seeing that there was no other way for her to calm down her older sister, Sona let out a sigh of defeat.

"Fine, I'll try it on."'

Sona agreed to try on the blue magical girl outfit for her Serafall, though she felt as if she lost something in herself. Taking it from her sister's hands, Sona went away into another part of their room and started to put on the magical girl outfit after taking off her other clothing aside from her underwear. Once she was finished changing, Sona went back in front of Serafall, while carrying a magical staff in her hand; though, Sona wore a completely embarrassed look on her face as she fidgeted around where she stood.

"Oh."

Serafall started to move around Sona examining how the magical girl outfit looked on her little sister.

"Hmm, it does look good. But, I think that I will stick with the pink one."

Serafall replied in a chipper manner, as she bounced around to a more open part of their room and began to put on the pink magical girl outfit. The Leviathan then began to undress not caring about privacy, at least not in front of her sister…well, the same thing could be said about Lance.

"I feel dirty."

Sona said in a low tone, as she reached out for the hat on top of her head to take off first, but―

Knock Knock Knock

There was a sudden knock at their door causing the attention of the two sisters, but before Sona could speak up, Serafall, who just had on just the skirt of her magical girl outfit.

"Hello~"

[Sona-chan. Sera-chan. I wanted to talk to the both of you about something.]

After hearing what he said, Sona's cheeks started to turn red after realizing that she was still wearing the magical girl outfit.

"W-Wait, L-Lance-kun…."

"Of course, you can come in Lance-kun!"

Serafall's loud voice overshadowed Sona's quiet plea causing the younger sister to panic, but she started to feel some relief as it would mean that someone would have to unlock the door. At least, that was what she thought―

Open!

"The door wasn't even locked!"

Sona felt her world crumbling as Lance opened the door and stepped into their room.

"I was wondering if you guys wanted to come to the…," Lance stopped after first seeing Sona dressed in a magical girl outfit with an embarrassed look on her face. His cheeks then turned red as she noticed that Serafall wasn't wearing a shirt nor bra, her large breasts, and pink nipples were in full view. "Am I interrupting something?"

"Nope, you were just in the middle of me and Sona-chan playing with one another."

"Can I get a little bit of context?"

Sona blushed after what Serafall had said including what Lance thought that the two of them were doing with one another.

"So, Sona-chan. …about the magical girl outfit."

"Th-This isn't what you think―!"

"It looks cute on you. Blue is definitively your color."

She was shocked about what he said, but there was some kind of relief in her chest.

"I didn't think that you would try one on, but―"

"N-No, I didn't want to try it on, but Onee-sama wanted to decide which one she wanted to wear for her program."

"You mean between that blue one and the pink one…the one that she wears all the time?"

"Yes, the one that she always…," Sona said, but then realized what Lance was getting out. "Onee-sama did you trick me to just put this on?!"

Sona shouted at Serafall, who placed on her pink top for her magical girl outfit.

"Sorry, So-tan~ I just wanted to see how adorable you looked in that outfit~"

Serafall said in a cheerful tone while sticking her tongue out in a teasing manner causing Sona's face to turn red out of both embarrassments that she felt for such a trick and anger that she was tricked by her older sister.

"Onee-sama, I can't believe that you…," Sona said as she went to take off the magical girl hat, but it would not budge despite pulling it as hard as she could. "Uh, I can't take this off."

Despite her efforts, Sona couldn't remove the hat nor any other part of the clothing that was on her body. Seeing that Lance glanced towards Serafall, who was looking on with an innocent look on her face, and he stared at her with a blank almost expressionless look on his face.

"Serafall."

Hearing the serious tone from him and how he didn't call her "Sera-chan", she could tell that he wasn't joking at all.

"There may be a little spell on the outfit that may not come off until Sona-chan said a little spell."

"What is the spell?"

Serafall laughed a bit causing both Lance and Sona to stare at her with an odd look on their conjoined faces. Grabbing onto her magical staff, she started to spin it around as she twirled her body around.

"Milulun. Milu-milu. With my bright magic, I'll destroy lots and lots of bad guys."

Serafall finished forming a V with her fingers in front of her eye while causing a pink heart came from in-between her fingers. After seeing that―

Bonk!

Lance performed a karate chop on top of Serafall's head with a blank expression on his face causing the Leviathan to let out a wine. Though the hit itself wasn't hard enough to cause any actual harm

"You can't force someone to do that."

"Hah! Lance-kun, I thought Knights weren't supposed to hit a young lady like that! What brute taught you that?!"

"My dad! And you and I both know he would have done the same thing!"

"There's no way Gala-tan would teach you that."

"He specifically said, 'Lancelot if you ever meet Serafall and she does something that goes off the deep end, then karate chop her on top of the head'," Serafall wined after hearing that from him since not that she remembered, Galahad did do something like that before. "I'm sorry, Sona-chan I'm sure that since if she put that magic on those clothing using her demonic power, then it would take a while to remove."

"A-Are you sure, can't you do something?"

"Sorry, I can't think of anything else instead of waiting to decode it," he replied much to her dismay and she started to recite the chant wanting to get this over with, but he stopped her with a wave of his hand. "Before Sona-chan does this, is there some kind of condition for this chant and dance."

"See~ Sona-chan has to say it in a cutesy voice," Lance raised his hand in a knife-hand manner with Serafall flinching a bit before suggesting something. "Why don't I do it with Sona-chan?"

Both Sona and Lance glanced at one another before coming to a silent agreement, but Lance was the first one among them to speak up.

"Fine, but as punishment, I'll be calling you Serafall for a week."

Hearing that from him caused Serafall to gasp as if she were just stabbed in the heart, but seeing how he was serious about it, Serafall nodded her head in agreement with stray tears coming from her eyes. Once that was settled, the two sisters stood in front of one another holding their magic wands in their hands. At the same moment, Sona and Serafall started to spin around.

""Milulun. Milu-milu. With my bright magic, I'll destroy lots and lots of bad guys.""

Sona and Serafall spoke in unison in a voice that Lance couldn't say wasn't at all cute, but a thought popped into his head.

"Wait, if that spell is removed. Would it either allow her to take the close off? Or would it just―?"

Shine!

The blue magical girl outfit that Sona wore started to shine with a rainbow-like color, then the clothes just slid off of her revealing her panties and bare breasts. Sona didn't have breasts that matched that of either her older sister or childhood friend, but Lance couldn't say that she didn't have any. Sona looked down with a reddened face as she could feel Lance staring at her causing her to cover herself up.

Noticing how nervous she looked, he reached for a blanket on her bed and handed it to Sona so that she could wrap it around herself.

"So, what did you want Lance-kun?"

"Right, Odin wanted to go to the Water Park tomorrow and I wanted to if you and your peerage wanted to come too."

"Hmm? The Water Park," Sona thought about it. "Well, my peerage has been working a lot harder after the rating game with Rias and her peerage. This could be a reward for them."

Seeing that Sona was onboard, Serafall started to be an ecstatic look on her face.

"Oooh! A Water Park sounds fun!"

"Onee-sama, don't you have a show to do?"

"Ack!"

Hearing that from Sona caused Serafall to pout remembering that the thing about her show was actually correct. She could at least hope that it would finish just in time for her to enjoy the Water Park.

---

In Tokyo the next morning, at the Water Park just as planned, it was a popular location that many families went to together. Lance and the others including Sona joined with her peerage just passed the entranced and had already set up their equipment near one of the pools.

Once it was set up, Odin, who was dressed in a swimsuit for the water park sat under one of the parasols leaning in the beach chair and lounged back; he also wore a normal eye patch instead of the usual crystal monocle in order for normal humans to see his magic eye and he placed a walking stick next to him.

"Ah, what a wonderful day today," Odin said in a relaxing tone. "And such wondering….sight."

Odin said in a perverse manner as he glanced around all the woman with different proportions dressed in their swimsuits. Though, the ones that were in front of him caught his attention as well.

First were the who were among Sona's peerage: Tsubaki was dressed in a two-piece bikini that matched her personality yet it made her all the more alluring; Momo was dressed in an alluring white two-piece bikini matching her hair color; Reya was dressed in a red two-piece bikini; Tomoe was dressed in a light one-piece bikini displaying her energetic nature; Tsubasa was dressed in a blue racing swimsuit with a series of yellow lines traces across it; Saji was dressed in black swim shorts with violet lines across it; Ruruko was dressed in a light colored frilly two-piece swimsuit and their king herself was dressed in a blue simple blue swimsuit.

Second there those among Lance's brace saints + Irina + Yuuma and Ariel: Lance was dressed in green shorts that had different black knightly designs on it; Xenovia was dressed in a blue one-piece swimsuits similar to Tsubasa; Yumi was dressed in a stylish sky blue two-piece swimsuit that had flower designs on it; Jeanne similar to Yumi, she was wearing a stylish orange two-piece swimsuit that had black designs on it; Percy was dressed in a one piece black racing swimsuit with silver lines on it.

For those who wasn't among his brave saints (in Ariel's case not yet): Yuuma was wearing in a stylish black swimsuit two piece with violet designs that showed off her almost otherworldly figure; Irina was dressed in a yellow two-piece bikini with frills on both the top and bottom piece, which looked almost like a skirt; and Ariel was dressed in a normal silver-white two-piece swimsuit.

Every one of the males who saw the girls in their swimsuits started to direct their attention towards them, they couldn't see a single blemish on their skin and their trained bodies. For the woman it was the same thing, they couldn't keep their eyes from their trained and toned bodies of the trio of males. Saji who was a little new to this attention started to become a little nervous.

"Is this the same attention that you two and Kiba gets, while at school?"

"Yea, sort of, but it doesn't quite have the same level of intensity."

Lance replied as she glanced around looking for Rossweisse, as he didn't see her standing around Odin as his bodyguard. Though, he turned his head noticing that said silver-haired Valkyrie was heading towards them wearing something that kept her body hidden.

"Ah, come on, Rossweisse-san," Yumi said in a teasing tone. "Why don't you show off your swimsuit?"

"Uh, I-I-I hasn't worn one before and I think that it looks weird."

Making a bashful look Rossweisse, everyone thought that she was a lot more mature than them, but they recalled that she wasn't that much older than them. Odin who sat down in his lounge chair reached for his walking stick and leaned forward.

"Stubborn as always, Rossweisse."

Tap. Tap. Woosh!

As soon as Odin tapped his walking stick on the ground, there was a sudden gust of wind that caught that attention of everyone, but it wasn't enough to cause any serious suspicion. Though, it was concentrated most on Rossweisse who panicked at the cloak covering her was blown away in the wind.

[Oooooh!]

All the men and even woman around them stared at Rossweisse, who was dressed in a stylish dark blue two-piece bikini with a sarong wrapped around her waist in a triangle skirt style. Though, that wasn't all that caught their attention was her figure that would even put models to shame. Rossweisse has a slender figure with a pair of beautiful breasts that were excellent in every way, and beautiful legs that weren't too skinny with an almost perfect shape. Her figure was almost like a work of art, but Lance thought it wasn't weird since she was a Valkyrie, who were half-Gods; though her figure still caught his attention.

Rossweisse started to become more bashful with all the looks that were being directed towards her, but a number of the member from Sona's peerage started to calm down the crowd. Even when they're outside of Kuoh Academy, they are still good at their job.

"Well, why don't we all enjoy the water park?"

Lance said out loud gaining the attention of those around him, but there was a sudden declaration came out from Rossweisse.

"I'll remain here and guard Lord Odin."

Remaining serious to her job as the bodyguard of Lord Odin, Rossweisse chose to remain next to him, but Tsubaki spoke up.

"That will not be necessary, I will remain with Odin-sama," Tsubaki spoke up gaining everyone's attention as she wore a serious look on her face, before pulling out a book. "I wanted to finish a book that Christian-sensei gave me about Counter and Defensive-based Magics anyway."

"That is true if Odin is attacked, then Tsubaki-san's Mirror Alice would be a great asset," Lance had stated, then he directed his attention towards his bag. "Plus, I left Avalon Drakon inside of my bag and if anything happens, Avon is able to act on his own and provide defensive measures. I got rid of the curse on Avon, so he'll be more effective than before."

"You heard them Rossweisse, so you can have a day off and enjoy yourself. Go on with Lancelot and have fun for once."

Odin replied in a cheerful tone.

Hearing that from him Rossweisse looked lost for a second, but it later turned into a deep red flush.

"G-Go o-on with Lancelot…and have fun! L-Like a date!"

She turned around covering her face with her hands, this would be her first time going out with a boy and Rossweisse even had a day off from guarding Odin. Though, after hearing that from Odin there were a few girls who felt a bit triggered.

"I don't mind," Lance replied causing Rossweisse to become stunned and happy at the same time. "Since it is the first time that Rossweisse has had fun at a place like this and I don't feel comfortable leaving her out like this."

Seeing how Lance was planning on hanging out with Rossweisse, though the girls who liked him felt as if it was unfair. None of them haven't really hung out with one another nor with those among Sona's peerage and thought that it would be fun to get better acquainted with them.

"Jeanne-chan. How about we go and have fun around the park."

Irina suggested.

"Ah~ that sounds fun, Jeanne-chan. Do you want to come to, Tomoe-chan?"

"That sounds so awesome~ I've always thought that I would have great synergy with Irina-chan and Jeanne-chan."

Seeing that the three of them would be going around having fun, the three girls joyfully started to go around the Water Park to find something fun to do.

"Hmm, Reya-san," Yumi said out loud catching her attention. "If you're up to it the two of us could go and hang out somewhere."

"Huh? Sure, I don't mind."

"And if you want, I could give you advice on how to caught Ise-kun's attention."

Yumi said that last part in more of a teasing tone causing Reya's face to become a bit redder.

"S-Sure, if you think that it would help."

Once the two of them agreed to do that, both Yumi and Reya started to head in another direction.

Soon after their departure, both Xenovia and Tsubasa stared at one another as if the two could sense a sudden competitive nature from the other, it was also the fact the two of them were wearing similar swimsuits meant to one thing.

""I want to have a race.""

The two spoke at the same time, causing the two of them to immediately run off somewhere in order to find a pool where they could face. Meanwhile, Saji felt a soft sensation on his right arm that came from Momo's breast that was being contained by the thin fabric of her bikini, while he felt Ruruko on his left side hugging his arm.

"Hey, Gen-chan," Momo said sending a big smile in his direction. "Me and our little kouhai here came to an understanding…for today, and we would go on rides together."

"Though, it is only for today. Since Kaichou decided to give us all a day off. So, we'll go anywhere that Genshirou-senpai wants to go."

"O-Oh, I see…then let's find somewhere to go."

Joined with Saji, both Momo and Ruruko began following him to one of the rides at the Water Park and Sona smiled at that sight.

"Everyone deserves a break once in a while," Sona said in a soft tone, but she glanced in the direction of Percy and noticed that he was already gone off somewhere. "I guess that it is only appropriate that I do the same as well."

"So, do you want to join me, Ariel?"

"Mmhmm," Ariel replied, but she made an embarrassed look. "But I really don't know how to swim. Since I never got the chance to try before."

"I don't mind teaching you, I mean we do have the entire day. I can teach you in the lazy river."

---

Several moments after deciding to go around the park and enjoy themselves, all of them rode various rides with one another. A trio of Jeanne, Irina, and Tomoe was riding a water slide that had a bunch of twists and curves while riding in an inflatable floaty for three. The three of them had let out a loud cheerful shout as they blew through the water with their hair becoming drenched from it until finally reaching a pool of water; due to the impact, all three of them were submerged in the pool.

In another location in the water park, both Yumi and Tomoe were talking with one another, drinking juice from a stand that was in the middle of a pool. Obviously, the two of them together attracted the attention from a number males who thought that the two were angels…one of them was at least an angel. Yumi sat there with Tomoe talking about whatever came to mind and what Tomoe could do to attract the attention of Issei.

Inside of the wave pool, everyone in the pool was enjoying the wave being produced, but in the pool, there were two individuals swimming against the waves as if it were nothing. Those two was both the Queen of Lancelot, Xenovia and the Rook of Sona, Tsubasa. Their method of swimming could've said was similar to a mermaid. The two continued to compete with one another with a confident smirk on both their faces.

Riding on a roller coaster that went through the water causing it to splash directly into their faces was Saji, Momo, and Ruruko causing the three of them to laugh out loud. As both Momo and Ruruko held onto his hands causing his cheeks to turn bright red for a second, but he smiled brightly.

Meanwhile, in another location, Sona was lying motionless in a floaty down the lazy river enjoying the peace and quiet. It was one of the first times that she could have enjoyed a peaceful day like this due to her responsibilities as Student Council President and as the heiress of the Sitri Clan. For someone who specialized in water-based magic, this was the most comforting thing that she could do.

Next, to her, Yuuma was swimming backward with Ariel laying forward on a swimming board. Yuuma had taken her swimming lesson with Ariel as slowly as she could so that she would get all of it.

Percy, who left the group beforehand was flowriding as if he were actually surfing and performing a number of stunts. His skills attracted the attention of a number of different patrons (mainly woman) who were all just walking by. Those patrons who watched him began cheering as he continued to perform.

---

Finally, in another part of the Water Park, both Lance and Rossweisse were walking side by side carrying a vanilla ice cream cone in their hands.

"This is the first time that I had a day this enjoyable, even before working for Lord Odin as his Valkyrie."

Rossweisse said with a bright smile as she walked along with Lance through the Water Park.

"That's a shame, everyone deserves a break once in a while."

Lance added.

She looked and noticed that their hands were close to touching with one another and the thought of them holding hands caused her face to turn slightly red. Since her day's training as a student in the Valkyrie Corps, there were a number of fellow Valkyrie who talked about heroes who became warriors for Valhalla. Though she spent her time studying, there were times where she would often imagine what she would do if she had a boyfriend.

"So, Rossweisse do you want to ride that?"

"H-Huh?"

Hearing his question after he finished the rest of his ice cream, Rossweisse became stumped to the point where she almost dropped her cone.

"I wanted to know if you wanted to go on that ride."

Lance pointed at the steps that led all the way to the top of one of the tallest a rides inside the Water Park with two different colored slides that had different twists and turns. From the looks of it, it was one of the most popular rides at the Water Park; the line wasn't that long as there number of people in the park as usual.

"Sure, I don't mind," Rossweisse replied finishing her ice cream cone. "It actually looks fun."

"Then let's go."

Once he said that Lance grabbed Rossweisse's hand and started to run in the direction of the line before it could get any longer. Because she was a Valkyrie she could keep up with him, including her training to become a proper one, but that wasn't the issue. Rossweisse stared at their linked hands and started to blush a deep shade of red.

"His hands are strong and warm."

Rossweisse thought as she continued to follow him.

"I'm going to make sure that this is a fun day for you Rossweisse."

"Huh?"

"You said that this was your first day off, then I'm going to ensure that it is a fun one day."

Lance replied with his signature smirk causing Rossweisse to smile in response to it.

"Okay, then lead the way."

After a while, Lance and Rossweisse made it to the top where another woman just got onto the left slide by herself. Seeing who was next to get on the ride, the middle-aged woman who worked here glanced over at both Lance and Rossweisse.

"Oh, are you two a couple? If so, then you can ride on the right slide for two."

"H-Huh?! U-Us a couple! I-I…."

"Come on, you don't have to be so shy babe," hearing that from Lance really caused Rossweisse's face to turn a bright red and her face turned crimson after wrapping his hand around her waist. "I'm sorry, she's just shy since this her first time on a ride like this."

His response caused the men behind him to stare at him with a look of envy after hearing that Lance was actually "dating" Rossweisse after seeing her figure firsthand.

"As I thought, working on rides like this, you can tell a first timer at just a glance," the middle-aged woman had replied before giving him a thumbs up. "By the way great job for dating such a fine woman like this young man."

Rossweisse realized that Lance was just playing around, but it caused a pang in her heart to think that the two of them actually looked like a couple on a date. Seeing how they already got permission, both of them went to the second slide, but the woman spoke up first.

"It would be best for the young woman to go first, then the young man."

"W-Wouldn't that mean that I would have to sit in-between Lancelot's legs."

"Lancelot? You mean like that knight, wouldn't that mean you're French," hearing her question Lance had nodded his head in agreement. "Well, aside from that. You shouldn't be embarrassed about it…now come on, I don't think everyone else can wait for long."

Following his instruction, Rossweisse sat down in the water first causing her to shiver at first, but she later got used to it; she was surprised for a second after Lance got in behind her.

"Now, Lancelot here wrap your arms around this young woman's waist."

Lance did as she said and wrapped his arms around Rossweisse, once he did, Lance could feel the softness of her skin. Though, the middle-aged woman shook his head.

"No no, you have to get in a little closer."

The middle-aged woman stepped forward and pressed both Lance and Rossweisse together, forcing him to hold onto her harder, while Rossweisse was pushed closer into his crotch. This caused her to blush a deep shade of red at the feeling.

"That's better," the woman said out loud as she placed her hand on Lance's back. "Now, let's go!"

""Huh.""

The middle-aged woman pushed Lance and Rossweisse forward down the slide causing them flying down the slide. Both of them shot through the water at high speeds, while making a number of turns causing both of them to scream out loud (Lance from excitement, while Rossweisse out of surprise, which turned into the same sensation). The two of them continued to shoot through the slide until the made another sharp turn forcing Lance's hands to move upwards and―

"Nnnn~!"

"S-Soft."

Due to the two of them continuing to go down the slide at an uncontrolled pace, he was forced to grope her breasts by accident. Though Lance couldn't say that he didn't feel incredible softness from her breasts and finally both of them came shooting out of the exit directly into the pool.

"Hahaha, that was fun."

Lance thought in his head since he couldn't breathe underwater (well, he could if he used magic). Though there was something that caught his attention, it looked like…not it was a bikini top.

"Uh, doesn't this belong to…."

He glanced forward and noticed Rossweisse crossing her arms across her breast, while she attempted to scream underwater as shown by the bubbles coming from her mouth. Lance grabbed her bikini top and swam towards her. Taking note of his presence, she turned away from him with a flushed look. Lance then touched his neck as his fingers shined with a bright green light for a moment, he then did the same thing to Rossweisse somewhat catching her attention.

[Calm down Rossweisse.]

Lance spoke to under water causing Rossweisse to turn her head towards her.

[A magic that lets you breathe and speak underwater?]

Rossweisse answered a question that she already realized.

[Yea, I made it for an assignment to eliminate a demonic beast that lived deep under water. It should remain active for at least 30 minutes whether or not you have a capacity for magic.]

[That is really ingenious.]

[Thanks, I have your bikini top.] Seeing that he had is caused her to feel some sense of relief. [Now, if you want I could put it on for you.]

Without saying a word, Rossweisse nodded her head and turned around, and Lance reached his hand out forward placing her top on her chest, then proceeded to tie it from behind. Once it was back on, she faced him though her face was reddened after thinking about the incident on the slide. After taking notice of her reddened face, he scratched the back of his head.

[By the way, I'm sorry about what happened. I didn't mean to grope you.]

[N-No, it's alright. I actually….]

---

Both Lance and Rossweisse stopped after sensing a change in the atmosphere, almost as if both of them were taking into another space. Lance at first thought that it was the Dimension Lost, but it felt different from the Longinus. Glancing at Rossweisse, both of them nodded their head and shot out from under the water and landed on the ground next to the pool. Once they did, the two of them were greeted by various devils whose clothing resembled those from the Old Maou Faction from the Khaos Brigade.

"So, there are still remnants of your guys remaining. So, what…that last fight didn't send a message to you guys?"

Lance spoke out in a confident tone, as both him and Rossweisse got into a prepared stance.

The one person who looked like a commander of sorts flew towards him using his devil wings and gave off a strong demonic power.

"We may have the battle, but the war is still going on," the commander spoke in a superior tone. "Besides, in that battle, there were a lot of you from the Three Faction Alliance. But, from what it seems there seems to be just the sister of that Fake Leviathan and her weak peerage, you and your group of fake angels, and a Valkyrie. If we can take you lot out it will prove that we don't need that half-breed Lucifer!"

"You forgot to count the perverted Chief-God."

Hearing his response caused the commander to laugh out loud.

"Sorry, but Odin won't be here to assist you."

"…huh?"

[Lancelot-san, Rossweisse-san. Lord Odin isn't here with us.]

Tsubaki spoke using a communication magic circle given out to everyone in case of emergencies causing both him and Rossweisse to widen their eyes out of shock.

"What do you mean? What happened to Lord Odin?!"

Rossweisse spoke in worry since he was her responsibility.

[He hasn't been taken by the Devils from the Old Maou Faction, he just isn't here with us…I just spoke with him and it appears as if he were forced out of this dimension. Lord Odin is attempting to find a method to break it.]

"Perverted or not. Using his magic eye, Lord Odin should be able to break through into this dimension as he did during the last attack. …what kind of Magician has that kind of frightening magical ability to create a spell like this?"

"Someone that goes by the moniker Mage God," Lance grumbled as he glared at the commander who was over him. "Did my bastard grandfather give this magic to you?"

"Of course, there is no one among the Khaos Brigade or Magician's Association who holds a candle to him in magical abilities. But, it is frightening that a magician is able to replicate the same magic used in Rating Games and the balance breaker of the Dimension Los," the commander replied. "But, why don't we stop it with the talking and onto the battle."

"I couldn't have said it better myself."

Lance replied as he flared up his fighting spirit and started the fight with Rossweisse.

Meanwhile, in the location where Odin was supposed to be Tsubaki had a strong barrier covering her from all sides from demonic blasts by the one casting the large shadow.

"Thanks for providing support Avon-san."

It was indeed Avon, but he looked to have grown from the size of a baby dragon, and instead to the size of a normal western dragon with a bigger blue jewel embedded in his forward including a number of smaller ones on his other horns. A silver-colored light started to overflow from his body causing the devils around him to shiver from the presence.

"I thought that dragon was supposed to be weaker than before, but it looks as if it went through a growth spurt."

"Avon-san could it be possible for you to make it so that my attacks can pass through the barrier?"

[I would be an issue at all, but it would be possible for you to get better aim in the skies instead of remaining on the ground. So, jump on my back.]

Following his advice, Tsubaki jumped on Avon's back and he spread out his large wings and flew into the skies with his wings giving off a bright light. Once they were in the skies, Tsubaki held her hand out and she started to release an assortment of elemental attacks ranging from spears of ice, wind, water, and fire aimed at the rogue devils using her demonic power.

Each attack was enhanced using the Bishop aspect of her Queen piece, as each of them was injured. A number of them attempted to retaliate, but their attacks were blocked by Avalon Drakon's barrier. Feeling enraged that their attacks weren't making a dent in their defenses, a number of devils amassed demonic power for one large attacks. Seeing that their comrades were preparing to attack, one of the devils called out―

"Don't this Queen as a…."

It was too late their attacks were already went flying towards both Avon and Tsubaki, seeing that all of the attacks merged together and were coming straight for them, Tsubaki smirked.

"Mirror Alice."

Tsubaki summoned her sacred gear, at the same time that the large demonic attack almost hit them, then the mirror cracked and―

Barin! Dooooooooo!

The large attack was sent flying backward much larger and destructive that it was before. Once the attack made contact, it caused a large explosion that formed a crater and wiped a number of devils that came to attack them. The ones that survived took flight into the skies using their bat wings and stared at the after-effect of the attack that wiped out their comrades.

Since they watched the rating game between the Sitri and Gremory Team, they knew that Tsubaki couldn't use it without a cooldown time. And so, the remaining devils gathered their demonic power again for one more attack, but they weren't the only ones.

Shine!

[This is the power of the Evil Banishing Dragon! The Dragon King of Avalon!]

Avon started to amass a large amount of energy on his mouth forming a massive orb. The moment that it was released it formed a giant beam that stretched across the skies wiping out a number of devils who it came across turning their bodies to ash as if they were damaged a holy weapon.

"Incredible."

Tsubaki was awestruck by the strength of that attacked and the number of rogue devils that it eliminated in a single shot.

"Tch, you damn…huh."

Some of the remaining rogues were repaired to attack with another attack but stopped after seeing that a line attached to his arm. Before he could turn to see who did this, he was dropkicked to the ground and hitting his head hard to the point where the ground cracked. Afterward, several other lines attached themselves to the arms of five other rogue devils.

"What the hell?!"

As if answering their question, a familiar individual landed in the middle of the group of five rogue devils, causing them to glance towards him.

"Genshirou Saji, the Pawn of Sona Sitri at your service!"

It was Saji who just before arriving already received permission from Sona to promote to Queen.

"You bastard!"

One of the aimed their hands at Saji gathering their demonic power, but it felt as if their demonic power was being drained. Though, it didn't stop them from continuing their attack.

"No, you don't!"

Saji yanked the line attached to that devil, pulling the rogue devil towards him, then Saji aimed his knee upwards towards slamming it into their chin. The force of the impact sent him falling back into the ground unconscious. Saji gathered a massive amount of black-colored demonic power accumulated from the power that he took from the five rogue devils, then formed it into a large sphere.

"D-Dammit!"

Sensing the pressure from that demonic attack, the remaining four rogue devils shook knowing that none of them could survive it; though, Saji wasn't letting them leave from this range due to his Absorption Line still being connected to them.

"Say goodnight!"

Saji fired off the demonic power at them, it covered their bodies and caused a massive explosion forcing the water inside the nearby pool to rain down from the sky. Seeing their comrade had been taken down, the rogues who remained held their hands out gathering demonic power in their hands. Though before either of the rogue devils could attack, each of them was struck hard at the back of the head by Ruruko who appeared out of nowhere. Her legs were glowing with her demonic power, something she learned through training with Christian after their previous rating game.

Similar to Saji, she already received permission to promote, but unlike him, she decided to promote to a knight instead.

"Where were these two…gah!"

"Huh? Ugh!"

Just as they were wondering where both Saji and Ruruko came from, a number of lightning attacks struck each of them paralyzing them one by one. Suddenly, standing on the building nearby, a barrier had come down revealing Momo standing targeting the remaining enemies. It was the same barrier used during the rating game to hide Sona's presence from the Gremory Group, but instead, it hid both her presence and physical body from being detected.

Once all the enemies were either killed or captured, Saji bound all of them using his Absorption Line, but it wasn't linked with him and instead bounded to the lines themselves. This absorbed their demonic power, then transferred it into the lines, not only weakening them but keeping the lines stronger.

"Tsubaki-senpai have you heard from Odin-sama?"

"Yes, on his end there are four seals placed around the sections of the Water Park and states that if all of them are destroyed, then this dimension will crumble," Tsubaki answered Ruruko's question. "I believe it would be wise to assist everyone on the other battlefields. I think that both Yumi-san and Reya-san are the closest to our current location."

"Alright, let's go."

Avon watched the four of them and couldn't help, but notice the growth that each of them went through after their loss during the Rating Game. He decided to let them go by themselves as it would be better if they remained hidden and a flying dragon would attract attention.

Somewhere in the path of the Lazy River, there was a number of rogue devils on the ground unconscious with their bodies wet from being attacked by water. Yuuma who close by stabbed one of her opponents by using her light spear instead of her sacred gear causing them to be vaporized. Nearby, Ariel was fighting off a number of rogue devils using long-ranged fireballs and dodging their demonic attacks by using the propulsion from her Holy Flames.

"You guys should really consider the proper time to attack," Yuuma said as a shadow loomed over her. "I don't think that it was wise to attack the heiress of the Sitri Clan at a Water Park."

Next to Yuuma was several enormous dragons made from water, standing on top of one of the dragons was their creator. The water dragon fired off a compressed blast of water from its mouth that decimated a large number of rogue devils. A number of the devils held their hands out to attack Sona, but a number of water snakes wrapped around them keeping them from moving.

[Ngh.]

A number of them made attempts at breaking the bindings, but they were incapable of doing that. There were a number of devils fired off a number of demonic attacks at Sona. Before either of them could make contact with them, Sona formed a barrier around her made from a compression of water blocking all of the attacks aimed at her. Reading their position, orbs of water shot out from the water barrier attaching to the heads of the rogue devils. As a result of having their heads covered in water, the rogues began to claw at the orbs but were incapable of prying them off as they began to suffocate.

After a while, each of them passed out after running out of air. Yuuma stared on the sidelines after dealing with her opponents and witnessed the results of her Sona's training with Christian, thus she attained a far better grasp of her techniques. And being in this area granted her unlimited access to water more so than during the Rating Game.

"Ane. I took care of the Rogue Devils on my end."

Ariel landed on the ground in front of her and gave her status of the area.

"Good job, Ariel," Yuuma replied petting Ariel on the head causing the young girl to smile. "Based on all of the reports from the other battlefields, the battles left to be finished would be where both Lance-kun and Rossweisse are."

---

In the location where Lance and Rossweisse were, the silver-haired Valkyrie launched a barrage of magic known as a Full Magic Burst wiping out the brigade of rogue devils who took to the skies. There were some rogues who launched a barrage of attacks at her, but Rossweisse either dodged them using her trained physical abilities or blocked them using a barrier. She soon flew into the skies using magic, as the number of rogues on the ground started to overwhelm her.

As she continued to defend from the attacks aimed at her, Rossweisse noticed that there were a number of devils who directed their attention to someone else. It was Lance who was currently jumping from off of the slides to buildings avoiding numerous circular blades conjured by the Commander using his demonic power. Each of them moved in a manner that displayed them being under his full control, as Lance landed on one of the nearby buildings, one of the blades came out of nowhere.

Reacting to each of them, he dodged them in a way where they barely scraped him. Seeing a perfect time to attack, the devils aimed a number of demonic and elemental attacks at Lance.

"Oh, no you don't!"

Rossweisse shouted as she opened her arms wide and activated a number of defensive magic circles that deflected all of the attacks that aimed at Lance giving him enough time to regain his footing.

"Thanks, Rossweisse. You're awesome!"

Lance exclaimed as he summoned numerous amounts of light spears, then took aim at the circular blades still chasing him. All the lights spears were fired hitting almost all of the circular blades, but there were a number of them that slipped past the blades. Anticipating them, Lance created a light sword in his hand and slice the rest of them in half.

He stared directly into the skies seeing the Commander who introduced himself to Lance and Rossweisse, then jumped with enough force to cause cracks in the roof of the building and flew at him at high-speeds using magic.

Preparing for Lance, the Commander formed a large sword made from his demonic power. Their blades had clashed against one another before starting a clash of skillful sword techniques showing off their own perspective mastery in swordsmanship. The two of them continued to clash launching fast strikes and also counters at one another, but both of them could perceive the intentions of the other.

It was the first time that he has fought someone from the Old Maou Faction…actually, Devil in general who put any effort into training aside from the Sairaorg and the others. Lance even felt as if he were more of a challenge than fighting the other Old Maou descendant. As he continued to cross swords with this Rogue Devil, Lance felt something inside beating inside of him causing a laugh to escape from his mouth.

"What're you laughing about? Are you losing your mind?!"

The Commander questioned as he crossed blades with Lance, the latter cracked up a smile.

"I really am my father's son," Lance replied as he knocked the Commander back a great distance, then he fixed his grip on his light sword. "I can tell your demonic power is at the level of an Ultimate-Class Devil, I can also tell that you honed your techniques, unlike the rogues that I fought before who relied on just their heightened demonic power. Most of the opponent that I fought were High-Class Devil, but neither of them took the effort to hone their techniques and so I didn't put in much effort into beating them. Up to date, I've never been forced to get serious against except for Vali, Sairaorg, and Cao Cao…though the latter wasn't fighting at his best yet."

"Huh? You and your friend call us 'overconfident' and 'cocky', then you come out and say that. How much of a hypocrite are you lot?!"

The Commander charged at Lance with his sword charging it with more demonic power, but Lance smiled.

"I've never been overconfident…I'm just confident in the magic and techniques that I spent my effort into developing over the years. Nor am I cocky…for I know that there are people out there stronger than I am," he answered as his light sword started to shine with a golden brilliance and extended outwards. "I am the Magic Knight feared and hated by the higher-ups among the Round Tail except for one. And I desire to crush the man known as Mage God who took everything from everyone in the Chivalric Order."

Slash!

Lance slashed his sword using an irregular motion of his hand that split the Commander's demonic power made sword in half causing his eyes to widen in shock. He reached his hands out forming two swords in his left and right hand charging for Lance. Since the start of their match, the Commander could read all of the movements of Lance's sword techniques, but he was incapable of reading his moves at all.

"I've never seen a sword technique like that before!"

"It is a technique taught to among the Du Lac Household," Lance replied. "I can't tell you how it works, but I will tell you that you have to focus on training your dexterity including the movements of your hands and wrists. The technique itself is called Silent Slash. Sorry, if you wanted to learn it, but only family members can learn it."

"Not interested in human techniques!"

"You're the one who wanted know."

Both Lance and the Commander started to get into another sword fight with one another with the latter launching a barrage of attacks using both swords, but Lance countered each of the attacks using irregular swordsmanship that he hadn't used before.

"You know, I am happy that this place is inside of a separate dimension and that my friends aren't within range of this. I can never use a high-class spell like this recklessly in the actual world."

"What?"

Lance held his free hand out with a magic circle forming, but the Commander didn't recognize even with his experience.

"Inferno Dragon's Breath, Incinerate."

Flame! Blaze! From his hand a mass of intense flames came out of his hand forming into a dome of flames, sensing the danger, but without time to avoid it, the Commander formed a strong barrier around him. Though it was a mistake in judgment, as he was trapped inside of this dome with the inferno wrapping around his body burning away the barrier and wrapped around him as if they were alive.

"Ooooooooo!"

The Commander let out a painful scream as his body was almost overcome by the heat and flames with his skin and flesh being burned. It looked as if the flames wouldn't cease until all traces of the rogue was burned to sunder leaving nothing remaining. Lance snapped his fingers causing the flames that covered the rogue to vanish as if they didn't exist at all.

"It was the first time that I used either technique on someone from the Old Maou Faction," Lance said as the rogue fell down on a nearby roof letting out a grunt. "I thank you for that."

After hearing those words from Lance, the Commander passed out from his wounds.

---

The battle against the Old Maou Faction ended with all of them being caught and sent to the Underworld via a magic circle activated by Sona after converging at their original location. Around the same time, the dimension that they were in started to fall apart as cracks appeared around the sky and broke away letting out a bright flash that caused them to cover their eyes.

"Hohohoho. That was an excellent fight."

The first thing that they heard was Odin laughing in a joyful manner. Opening their eyes, the first thing all of them saw was Odin holding his walking stick and stroking his bread. During the time spent breaking the four seals placed around the Water Park, since he couldn't break into the dimension, Odin could at the very least peer inside of it to see their progress.

"I'm impressed by the progress of Serafall's sister and her peerage. Even if you don't have the exact same strength as the Gremory Team."

It was the second time that they received praise from the Chief God and it made them believe in their own progress as a peerage.

"I thank you for that Odin-sama."

"I just wish that there was a way for me to catch up with Hyoudou."

"Well, I shouldn't say this," Lance said as he glanced towards Saji. "There is a certain surprise that Grigori has for you in the near future."

Saji who heard that glanced at him with a worried look.

"This 'surprise' isn't going to be painful is it, because Hyoudou has told me about Azazel-sensei's irregular methods when concerning sacred gear users."

"What kind of attitude is that Saji," Sona spoke up catching his attention. "Weren't you the one who always said that you would do anything to make your dream of becoming a teacher come true?"

Hearing that counter from Sona caused Saji to glance away from her scratching the side of his cheek and let out a nervous laugh. All of them later heard a familiar voice coming towards them.

"Sona-chan!"

"Oh, no."

Serafall who was dressed in a violet two-piece swimsuit came crashing into Sona causing her to almost fall to the ground, but she regained her footing. Seeing this Lance let out a slight laugh.

"Okay, we still have some time left so why don't we enjoy the rest of this day?"

[Yes!]

Hearing that from Lance caused everyone to give off an energetic reply. Just like that, all of them enjoyed the rest of their day at the Water Park. All of them rode on different rides at the water park, talking among one another, and even ate homemade food made at the Du Lac Residence for lunch. Though at times like this, the most peaceful of times could lead to a more terrible time later on.

In an unknown location, there was an individual sitting on a throne staring at a giant creature that lied on the ground asleep and breathing.

"Get as much sleep as you can my child," the individual spoke with a sinister smile. "For will taste the blood of the Chief-God of the Norse and begin Ragnarok."

A/N: And there goes chapter forty of The Magic Knight, I'm sorry that it took me a long time to get it out, I have to use another keyboard since the keyboard on my laptop stopped working. Now, let us get to what happened this chapter. This chapter started off with Lancelot and the others training in the Training Ground of the Du Lac Residence. It started with Xenovia being trained by Yumi in more Technique instead of just relying on power. It later went to both Jeanne and Irina who were having a sparing session with Jeanne showing off her amazing dance-like sword techniques and Irina who showed off her resolve. It then went to Lancelot and Percy who instead got into an old-fashioned fist sight with Percy showing off the Pankration, the martial arts from the Greek Faction, while our favorite Knight showed off that he isn't just skilled in using magic and sword.

Then we got to see how Ariel can do in a fighting using Uriel's special move, the Holy Flames along with using a number of creative moves. Then came the meeting with Odin and Rossweisse, it looked as if the Gremory Team had enough of the perverted antics Norse God. After a little scene with both Sona and Serafall that I'm sure some people knows where it came from. Everyone decided to go to the Water Park joined by the Sitri Team. Once there everyone showed off their swimwear and went on different rides with Lancelot and Rossweisse having a 'special' moment.

Afterward, they were met with the Old Maou Faction with some of the Sitri Team showing off their progress and revealed what Lancelot is like when getting somewhat serious. Well, the chapter ends with the appearance of a mysterious figure who I'm everyone knows.
