Hi there!
My sister, the swords-woman of lightning
Asta saw the tile glowing and with quick reaction, grab Mimosa around the waist and jump out of the way, just in time of avoiding getting pierced by a giant shard of rock.
"Mimosa! Are you okay?!" Asta asked, skidding to a stop.
"Y-yes!" Mimosa replied in a stunned tone of voice.
Everyone else has stunned expressions on their faces.
"T-that boy has quick reaction!" Klaus said with his eyes wide open.
"Heh. You see when Asta's fighting." Donna replied, gaining a smirk on her face.
A small smile was also present on Yuno's face.
"Are you two okay?!" Noelle asked in a concerned tone of voice just as Nero took shelter in the hood piece of the silver hair girl's robes.
"Yes. Although our cousin seem stunned though." Asta replied just he release Mimosa, making Noelle sigh in relief.
"From now on, I think its best if everyone watch where they step." Klaus instructed whilst pushing his glasses up his nose.
This cause everyone to nod their heads.
However, Asta took a step which cause the tile to light up.
"Eh?" Both Asta and Mimosa said at the same time, noticing the tile lighting up.
"Sorry about this Mimosa!" Asta said before quickly wrapping an arm around Mimosa's waist again and jumped to the side, avoiding the second trap.
"Two traps close together. That's unexpected." Asta noted as he landed on the floor again…..only for a third tile to light up again.
"Oh, not again!" Asta shouted in his head before jumping out of the way of the third trap.
Eventually, the ash-white hair teen ended up activating a chain reaction of traps.
Everyone else watched with wide eyes as they watch Asta dodging the traps whilst keeping a tight hold on Mimosa.
Eventually, Asta landed on the floor and froze, waiting it to light up.
However, no tiles light up.
"I think it's safe now." Asta said as he released Mimosa.
"T-thank you, Asta." Mimosa said before sighing in relief.
Hurried footsteps are heard, causing the two to turn their heads to see the other four Magic Knights approaching them.
"Are you okay?!" Donna asked in worrying tone of voice.
"Yes. I think we managed to avoid the line of traps." Asta replied, making Donna sigh in relief.
"Didn't I just told you watch where you step?" Klaus asked in an exasperating tone of voice.
"Hey! I didn't know there would be a line of traps waiting to be set off, fore-eyes!" Asta exclaimed in angry tone of voice.
"Stop calling me that!" Klaus snapped, glaring at the ash-white hair teen.
"Heh. Those two are like oil and water." Mimosa commented with a small smile on her face.
"Indeed." Yuno agreed with a blank expression on his face.
"Hey, Donna." Noelle said, gaining the other swords-woman's attention.
"Does the Swords Of Logos have a sword-wielder that has a Holy Sword that can cut through magic?" Noelle asked, causing Donna to blink her eyes.
"I'm not sure. I haven't heard of having a Anti-magic sword in our possession….." Donna replied in a thoughtful tone of voice whilst glancing at the shards of rocks that jutted out of the ground.
"Mimosa. Can you please use your magic to get a layout of the Dungeon?" Klaus asked, having decided to press onto more important matters.
"Right." Mimosa replied before her Grimoire started to float before opening and flipping through its pages by itself.
"Plant Creation Magic: Magic Flower Guidepost." Mimosa announced and a slightly large flower appeared which then constructed a map of sorts.
"Is that the map of the Dungeon?" Asta, Noelle and Donna thought as they stared at the map whilst Mimosa studied the map.
"…..Yep. I know where we need to go." Mimosa said, making Klaus nod his head.
"Good. Yuno, can you make transport for us all so that it will be unlikely to activate anymore traps." Klaus requested, making Yuno nod his head and began to take out his Grimoire.
"Hang on a minute. I think that…..we should split up." Donna said, causing everyone to stare at her.
"Miss Fukamiya. The Diamond Kingdom will have likely send powerful Mage Warriors to secure the treasure room for themselves. Splitting up will be a foolish move in case we run into them." Klaus explained with a frown on his face.
"Whilst you maybe right, the Diamond Kingdom's Mage Warriors will likely have split into two groups, one to fight us whilst the other secure the treasure room. The Diamond Kingdom is in a economic slump, having used up most of their resources, so securing the treasures that this Dungeon holds is a priority for them. They will use any tricks to prevent us from getting to the treasure room while getting there first." Donna explained, causing Klaus to gain a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Hmm…I guess that you could be right. If that is the case, then splitting up is the best course for us. But if one of our groups encounter the Diamond Kingdom's Mage Warriors that aimed to prevent us from reaching the treasure room, then that group may be at disadvantage….." Klaus explained in a thoughtful tone of voice.
"Oh? Why are you worried, Mr Lunettes? You have a Magic Knight of royal status and a four-leaf Grimoire wielder. I thought that you may feel confident for your team." Donna explained with a small smirk on her face.
This cause Klaus to gain a shock expression on his face.
"B-but what about you?! you only have one Magic Knight of royal status." Klaus pointed out, covering up his embarrassment.
Noelle flinch at this, but felt slightly relieved that the senior Golden Dawn Magic Knight didn't comment on her magic controlling problem.
This cause Donna's smirk to widened slightly.
"You don't need to worry about us. We in the Sword Of Logos are skilled ourselves." Donna explained, making Klaus nod her head.
"But you don't have a way of navigating through this Dungeon." Mimosa pointed out, sounding concerned.
"Don't worry. I have that covered." Donna replied in a reassuring tone of voice.
"Now that's all sorted, we now separate into two groups. Yuno." Klaus said, making Yuno nod his head before opening his Grimoire.
"Wind Creation Magic: Heavenly Wind Arc." Yuno announced, making a gust of wind to appear which then took shape into a long vessel. The three Golden Dawn Magic Knight then climb aboard the wind-created vessel which then levitated into the air.
"See you at the treasure room!" Asta called just as the three Golden Dawn Magic Knights disappeared through a corridor.
"So…..how are we going to travel through the Dungeon without setting any more traps?" Noelle asked, giving Asta a short glance.
"Heh. I got that covered as well." Donna replied before taking out a Wonder-Ride that has a gold coloured boarder. The cover shows a picture of a lamp that has two eyes poking through the open lid. The title reads "Lamp Do Alangina" with the right bar filled.
The new Wonder-Ride book cause both Asta and Noelle to perk up.
This cause Donna to smirk.
"Got you interested, haven't I?" Donna asked before opening the new Wonder-Ride book.
Lamp Do Alangina!
The Wonder-Ride book announced and a gold carpet appeared.
"Ohhhhhhhh!" Both Asta and Noelle exclaimed in awe.
"Come on now. We got a mission to complete." Donna pointed out whilst climbing onto the carpet.
The other two Magic Knights nod their heads before climbing onto the carpet as well.
"Lightning Creation Magic: Lightning Genie's Treasure seeker." Donna announced with her Grimoire opened.
A gold compass appeared in front of the swords-women of lightning with a arrow pointing in a direction.
"You have a tracking spell?!" Asta exclaimed with stars in his eyes.
"Yes. But I only can use this spell if I know what I'm looking for." Donna explained, making Asta nod his head.
"Well then. Lets get going." Donna said before making the carpet fly, following the gold arrow that is pointing in a different direction that the three Golden Dawn members went.
The three Sword Of Logos members made swift progress as they made their way through the Dungeon…..although they did ran into some progress.
"W-what?!" Noelle exclaimed as the three Magic Knights got caught up in some gravitation field, causing all three of them, plus Nero, to float off the carpet.
"I guess that the high density of Mana level cause it to create unexpectedly traps." Donna guessed as she kept a good hold on her carpet.
The swords-wielder of lightning saw Nero struggling so she gentle took hold of the small anti-magic bird.
"There you go, Nero." Donna said with a small smile on her face.
Nero chirped in gratitude.
It was then that Asta saw something on the corner of his eyes, causing him to look up.
"Hey! Don't look!" Noelle, who happened to be floating above the ash-white hair teen, shouted as she folded her legs, thinking that Asta is looking at something he shouldn't.
"Look. There's a walking treasure chest." Asta pointed out, causing the other three to look up to see a treasure chest walking on two legs on the ceiling.
"Should we capture and open it?" Asta asked, looking at the other two.
".…..No. I heard stories about Magic Knights finding random treasure chests in Dungeons and found…..unpleasant things…." Donna replied, causing Asta and Noelle to glance at each other before nodding their heads.
The Magic Knights managed to get themselves out of the gravitation field and continued their journey.
"I thought we at least run into some mages from the Diamond Kingdom by now. Did I made an error?" Donna thought, starting to become worried. However, the three Magic Knights and Nero sensed something.
"You feel that?" Asta asked, making the other two nod their heads.
"Yes. Most likely mages from the Diamond Kingdom." Noelle commented, becoming tense.
The three Magic Knights turned around a corner and encounter four men where three of them are wearing dark blue robes with light blue hoods.
The fourth is wearing robes where the top half is white but dark blue at the bottom, but his face isn't covered by a hood, showing that he has short black hair and grey eyes.
"Well, well well. I was beginning to wonder if we were the only Mages here." The leader, or that was what the three Sword Of Logos members guessed, of the small group said with a smile on his face.
The smile caught the Sword Of Logos members off guard.
"You do know that we're supposed to be enemies…right?" Donna asked in a slow tone of voice.
"Hehehe. Yeah, I am a bit of a laid-back person. Oh! Where are my manners, my name is Lotus Whomalt." The now known Lotus introduce himself, causing both Asta and Noelle to stare at him confusedly whilst Nero gave him her usual deadpan expression.
"Lotus Whomalt. I heard of him, his a skilled mage from the Diamond Kingdom, wildly known as the Hell Lotus. This could be troublesome for us. Who else did the Diamond Kingdom send to secure this Dungeon?" Donna thought frowning slightly.
"Oh? That's a lovely gold carpet you three are riding. Is it for sale?" Lotus asked, glancing at the carpet that was summoned by the "Lamp Do Alangina" Wonder-Ride book.
"Sorry. But its not for sale." Donna said as she, Asta and Noelle climbed off the carpet which then disappeared.
"Pity. The money would be useful." Lotus said before taking a closer look at the emblem on the three Clover Kingdom's Magic Knight's robes.
"You three are from that mysterious tenth Magic Knight squad, correct? There has been wild rumors running around about your lot." Lotus explained, making the members of the Sword Of Logos tense.
However, Donna shook her head before speaking.
"As your enemies, we need you four to get out this Dungeon." Donna said as she and the other two Magic Knights got out their Grimoires.
This cause the three hooded Mage Warriors to become tense.
"Heh. The youngsters sure a full of energy." Lotus commented with a smile on his face.
"Noelle!" Donna exclaimed, causing the silver hair girl to nod her head before getting in front of the swords-women of lightning and Asta whilst flipping through her Grimoire.
"Water Creation Magic: Sea Dragon's Surging Wave!" Noelle exclaimed, causing a wall of water to surge upwards.
The four Mages from the Diamond Kingdom braces themselves as the water crashed onto them.
"Huh? That attack didn't seem all that powerful….." Lotus thought, gaining a small frown on his face.
"Lightning Magic: Crackling Bolt!" Donna shouted before releasing a bolt of lighting from her hand.
Somehow, Lotus managed to dodge the attack, but the other three Mages weren't lucky as the lightning hit them, the attack being amplified by the water.
"So that was your plan, hmm." Lotus commented as he stood back up.
"Tch. I thought that we can wrap up this quickly, but doesn't seem that way." Donna commented in a slightly frustrated tone of voice before summoning a Seiken Sword-drive from the pages of her Grimoire.
This cause Asta and Noelle to become excited whilst Lotus became curious as they, including Nero, watch Donna place her Seiken Sword-Driver around her waist before opening the "Lamp Do Alangina" Wonder-Ride book.
"A Lamp of ancient origin from a distant land left behind legends of its extraordinary powers."
The Wonder-Ride book announced before Donna closed the clover and place it in the left slot of the Seiken Sword-driver, causing a new standby sound to start playing. Donna place a hand on the sword, which has a yellow jagged guard, that is stored within the driver just as a giant version of "Lamp Do Alangina" appeared behind her. Donna then released the sword with a quick motion.
Unsheathe the lightning!
The driver announced just as the two versions of the "Lamp Do Alangina" Wonder-Ride book opened, showing a picture of a gold arm that is joined by a gold figure. A gold mechanical genie flew out of the "page" and started to circle the swords-women of lighting. "Henshin!" Donna shouted before doing a upwards slash with the now enlarged sword.
~Lamp Do Alangina~
Ikazuchi: Volume 1-When the Djini from the lamp and Ikazuchi, the sword lightning, unite, the amber blade shall shine with radiant splendor!
The driver announced just as the gold mechanical genie fused with Donna, granting her amour that is white on the right side and grey in the middle section with gold lining. The left side of the armor is completely gold with a cape and a lamp acting as a shoulder pad. The left mouth piece of the helmet is done in gold whilst the right side is white. The top section is done in black with a grey forehead piece that has a blade acting has a horn sprouting upwards. The visor is a thick yellow crescent shape that connects at the top as a thin green arc shape.
"Wow!" Asta exclaimed with stars in his eyes as he stared at the now transformed Espada.
"Transform as well, Bakasta." Noelle commented whilst retrieving her sword from the pages of her Grimoire.
"Right." Asta said before getting out his Seiken Sword-driver. Lotus watched with interest as he watch Asta transform into Kamen Rider Saber.
"Heh. I guess some of those rumors are true that you don armor and wield swords." Lotus commented before glancing towards Noelle.
"What about you, little girl. Aren't you going to don armor as well?" Lotus asked, becoming curious.
"I…don't have any armor….." Noelle replied in a quiet tone of voice.
"Oh? Are the armor only available to those born in nobility?" Lotus asked innocently.
However, both Saber and Espada knew that he said the wrong thing.
"How dare you! My name is Noelle Silva, a member of Royalty!" Noelle shouted in anger.
"Okay! Okay! Okay! There's no need to become angry. You Clover Kingdom people do value status for some reason." Lotus explained, but Noelle still has an angry expression on her face as she, Saber and Espada got their swords ready.
"You know, I don't really want to fight. But since the Diamond Kingdom really needs the treasure in this Dungeon and you guys are not going to let us, I might as well." Lotus said before opening his Grimoire.
"Smoke Creation Magic: Hazy Sword." Lotus announced and black smoke started to appear before taking the shape of a sword.
This cause the Magic Knights of the Sword Of Logos to become slightly surprise.
"So, whose ready for some swordplay?" Lotus asked as he got his sword at the ready.
"Lightning Creation Magic: Thief's boots." Espada announced, causing gold lightning to crackle around her legs.
Before the others can do anything, Espada suddenly moved.
"Whoa!" Lotus exclaimed in shock as Espada suddenly appeared in front of him, her spell seemingly increased her speed.
Fortunately for Lotus, the mage from the Diamond Kingdom managed to block a attack from Ikazuchi.
Espada then released a barrage of attacks towards Lotus. However, Lotus managed to block or dodge the attacks.
"Tch." Espada said before jumping back, allowing Saber to take her place.
Lotus noted how Saber's sword strikes seemed more heavier than Espada's.
Eventually, the two ended up in a deadlock.
"Heh. For someone so young, you are certainly skilled with a sword." Lotus said with a smirk of his face.
"Fire Creation Magic: Fire Dragon's Fangs." Saber announced before summoning fire daggers before jumping back to allow the daggers to have a easy target to hit.
"Hey! You should at least say something when someone gives you a compliment!" Lotus said as he jump back to avoid the attack.
However, before the mage of the Diamond Kingdom can take a quick breather, Noelle started to attack her.
"And she's the opposite to that fire swordsman." Lotus commented as he mainly have to move backwards to avoid Noelle's sword that is covered in water, which some of it managed to land on Lotus.
Noelle jumped to the side and Lotus's eyes widened when he saw Espada with her Grimoire opened.
"Lightning Creation Magic: Lamp Buster!" Espada announced and a lamp with a titled handle appeared in her hands.
"What is she going to do with that?" Lotus asked, becoming curious just as Espada press a trigger that is on the titled handle and hold it.
"Gah! Lotus exclaimed as he dived to the side as three shots made out of lightning burst out of the spout of the lamp.
"Ha….ha…you two are a deadly combination…" Lotus commented through deep breaths, referring to Espada and Noelle.
"Hmp! That should teach you not to be rude to royalty." Noelle said with a arrogant tone of voice.
"Hey, Saber. Do you mind if you let me and Noelle take care of this guy? He did say that the two of us are a deadly combination." Espada explained, causing Saber to nod his head in response.
"Maybe I should keep my mouth shut." Lotus thought, sweat-dropping as he saw Noelle grinning darkly.
The Mage Warrior of the Diamond Kingdom cut the spheres of water that Noelle shot at him, noting how some of them flew off course, with his sword before jumping back to avoid getting hit by the lightning bullets that Espada fired from her lamp.
"I need to get closer to get him soak." Noelle thought as she charged towards Lotus, sword at the ready.
"Heh. Wanting to cross blades again?" Lotus asked with a smirk on his face.
However, Noelle didn't say anything as she swing her sword at the Diamond Kingdom's Mage Warrior.
As Lotus threw a jab at the silver hair girl, Noelle dodged the attack whilst managing to use her magic to splash water onto Lotus.
"So she's wasn't aiming to cut me with her sword, but rather to get me soak…..!" Lotus thought before sensing someone behind him.
The Diamond Kingdom's Mage Warrior's eyes widened when he saw that it was Espada with Ikazuchi at the ready.
Lotus attempted to raise his sword to block the attack, but the swords-women of lightning was faster, swinging Ikazuchi who is now covered in lightning.
"GAAAAAAAH!" Lotus exclaimed in pain as lightning shot through his body.
"All right!" Saber cheered with a smile under his helmet just as Espada and Noelle back away from Lotus.
"…..That…was good….teamwork you two….have." Lotus said through deep breaths, using his sword, which was slightly losing its shape, to support on.
"Its your own fault for pointing out that our magic work together very well." Espada explained, causing Lotus to slowly nod his head.
"Yes.…..that is my…..fault….." Lotus commented before smiling slightly.
"You know…..its been a while since someone managed to land a solid hit like that." Lotus said, causing the three Magic Knights to become curious.
"Who?" Saber asked, tilting his head to the side.
"He's like you guys, a swordsman who wields darkness as his magic." Lotus replied, causing Saber's and Noelle's eyes to widened.
"You don't mean….Kamen Rider Calbur, the swordsman of darkness?" Espada asked whilst tightening her grip on Ikazuchi.
However, Lotus blinked his eyes in confusion.
"No. I was referring to the captain of the Black Bulls, Yami Sukehiro. He wields a Katana and uses Darkness magic, one of the rare types of magic in the world." Lotus explained, making Espada to sigh before speaking.
"Sorry to stop your story, but we need to wrap this up and meet up with the others." Espada explained before approaching Lotus, preparing to knock him out.
However, Lotus began to smirk.
"I hate to ruin your fun. But securing the treasures in this Dungeon is vital for saving the Diamond Kingdom's economy." Lotus explained before opening his Grimoire.
"Smoke Creation Magic: Degenerate King's smoke Prison." Lotus announced and black smoke started to pour out of his Grimoire.
"What?!" Espada exclaimed, her eyes widening.
"Espada!" Saber and Noelle exclaimed as they took a step forward.
"No! Stay back!" Espada shouted, whirling around.
However, it was too late as the black smoke completely engulfed them. The three Magic Knights stood back-to-back, becoming tense.
"Like my spell? You three can't escape from this dome of smoke which will eventually suffocate you three. If you want to escape, then you have to defeat me. But finding me in this smoke will be a challenge." The voice of Lotus explained through the fog, laughing slightly.
"We can still sense you though!" Saber shouted before shooting some fire into the smoke, him having sense Lotus in front of him. However, no yelp of pain can be heard.
"Hehehehe. Even though this spell blocks my own normal vision, I can enhance my eyesight to "see" you three clearly." Lotus explained as he circle the three Sword Of Logos members, him "seeing" the three Magic Knights as glowing auras.
"What can we do? If we don't make up a plan soon, then we'll suffocate with Noelle going down first." Espada thought as she frowned.
"You may want to hurry up, the clock is ticking." The voice of lotus said through the smoke.
It was then that a idea appeared in the Swords-woman's head.
"Saber, Noelle. I have an idea." Espada said before explaining to the other two in a low tone of voice, making sure that Lotus couldn't hear her.
Saber and Noelle nod their heads before turning around and shoot their magic into the smoke.
"Where are those two aiming at? They're completely off the mark." Lotus thought, become confuse as he moved around, easily avoiding getting hit by the spells.
Final Page!
Unsheathe the Lighting!
Alangina! Volume 1 slash-Thunder!
A voice announced, causing Lotus to become confuse before turning his attention towards Espada who has Ikazuchi covered in lighting.
"What is she-" Lotus began to thought before getting cut off at Espada suddenly burst forward straight towards him.
"Gah!" Lotus exclaimed as he got hit by Ikazuchi.
"Yes!" Saber and Noelle cheered as the black smoke started to disappear.
"My convictions are absolute!" Espada announced, still in a battle stance.
"Owe…that attacl of yours really pack a punch…." Lotus said in a pained tone of voice.
"Seriously! He's not knocked out!?" The three Magic Knights shouted at the same time in their heads.
"Hehehe. I faced worst back at the Diamond Kingdom." Lotus said with a smirk on his face, knowing what is going through the Sword Of Logos members heads.
The three Magic Knights pointed their swords at Lotus.
"H-hang on a minute! That spell consumes a lot of my Mana. So I'm not in a great state to continue fighting." Lotus explained quickly, raising his hands up slightly.
This cause the three Magic Knights to glance at each other before lowering their swords slightly.
"What are we going to do with these Diamond Kingdom Mages? We can just lug them with us throughout the rest of the Dungeon." Noelle asked, making Saber frowned slightly just as Nero landed inside the swordsman of flames's collar.
"I use my magic to bind them. We leave them here and pick them up when we ready to leave." Espada explained whilst taking out her Grimoire and opening it.
However, Lotus began to smirk.
"Whilst I would like to stay around and chat. Me and the boys really need to get going." Lotus explained just as his Grimoire opened and started to flip through its pages.
"Smoke Creation Magic: Bustling Lazy Vehicle." Lotus announced just as black smoke burst out of his Grimoire before taking the shape of cart.
"Hey!" The three Magic Knights exclaimed at the same time just as the cart started to move.
"Whilst it is true that I have little Mana left. I rather spend it on escaping rather fighting!" Lotus shouted over his shoulder just as the cart started to pick up speed.
"Seriously?! He just going to leave his subordinates behind?" Noelle asked before noticing that the three other Mage Warriors have disappeared.
"So….what now?" Saber asked, looking at the other two.
"We better meet up with others. Our mission is to secure the Dungeon, not chase after the enemy." Espada explained, making the other two nod their heads.
And there we have it, the Sword Of Logos Magic Knights encountering Lotus Whomalt and Donna's transformation into Kamen Rider Espada. Did you enjoy Lotus' sword spell and did anyone spotted the small reference to the canon Asta at the start of the chapter? So last time in Kamen Rider Saber, Reika transformed into Kamen Rider Sabela and Kento reveals his identity as Kamen Rider Calibur the 3rd to the others. Please review and until next time.
Farhan Nugraha: Tetsuo will likely use sound of music magic but I haven't got any ideas for Sophia's magic. If you have your own idea for Sophia's magic, please let me know.
howard567: I have things planned out, but I highly doubt that Asta will learn about "Primitive Dragon" because I think the Wonder-Ride is created due to Saber's main Wonder-Ride book being a dragon, so "Primitive Dragon" won't exist yet at this point in the story.
Dcraus: I have a few ideas in motion.
itspowertime:
1) Why would it be interesting to see the interactions between Kenzan and Mimosa?
2) I can probably see Asta attempting to "recruit" other Magic Knights into the Sword Of Logos to have a better chance of surviving.
3) I think that Captain Charlotte would probably tell Sol off for treating Yuri as a object...even though its half true.
4) Thanks for the idea.
5) I understand about Charmy being interested in Slash due to his main Wonder-Ride book but I don't understand the rest of the Black Bulls.
