Greetings everyone, Bonne Lecture~~~~~~~~, Welcome back to Koihime Saber: the book of the three kingdoms.
Last time our hero, Koutaro Rekka and his party met a young woman named TonTon who seemed to be aware of the Kamen Riders from Koutaros world.
The party decided to assist the young woman in her problem, checking out a recent attack on a village and hearing rumours.
However our heroes discovered that this monster was actually a beautiful woman named Ryofu who had defended the village from the Megid but was mistaken as a monster.
After clearing things up our heroes were brought to TonTon's home who was revealed to be Totaku who proceeded to reveal to Koutaro who told her about the Kamen Riders.
I wonder if our heroes will be meeting a new swordsman but for now our heroes continue their journey to change the world…

Opening: Inferno from fire force.
Forest
Third person P.O.V.
"Umm…" Koutaro sweatdropped, as he and his companions along with another person walked through the forest to the next village but this time around there was a tense atmosphere in the air.
Koutaro looked over to his companions, Kan'u and Chouhi looked awkward while Chōun looked annoyed.
"Chōun it's really not that big of a deal, can't you just let it go? I know they ate your bamboo shoots." Koutaro said, only for Chōun to scowl more.
"Okay, okay, look I'm sorry that Rinrin and I ate your Menma while you were in the bathroom! We just saw it there in the bowl and thought you didn't want it." Kan'u said, only for Chōun to pout. "Quite the opposite, Menma is my favourite and I was saving it for last."
Koutaro sighed at the argument they were having ever since they had lunch, before looking over at their new companion.
It was a highschool girl that looked about 17 years old with curly brown hair and blue coloured eyes. She was wearing a school uniform which consisted of a white shirt with a green ribbon, an orange skirt, long black tights and red shoes. This was Meika Akio, a young woman that Totaku had introduced to them a few days earlier who was currently looking very tired.
"Hey, how are you feeling?" Koutaro asked, as Meika sighed. "I'm exhausted, we've been walking for hours, why couldn't we just get a horse or something."
"What are you talking about Meika! Horses are super expensive, even babies know that, you must be pretty dumb." Choouhi laughed, making Meika growl. "What was that you little…"
Koutaro sighed as he thought back to how they first met Meika.
Totaku's home
Third person P.O.V.
"Now Koutaro, you had said you wanted to meet the person who taught me about the Kamen Riders." Totaku asked, as he nodded. "Yeah, that's right."
"Well there they come now." Totaku said, making him blink.
"Heyo Yue-chan, you wanted to see me?" He heard, as Koutaro and the others turned around to see who came to them.
"Ah Aiko, I found one of the Kamen Riders you told me about." Totaku said, as did the others who walked up it, only to see Meika walking up.
'EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHH?!' Koutaro thought, as he looked at the girl, shocked that there was another person from his world.
"Koutaro, is something wrong?" Kan'u whispered, making Koutaro blush. "Ah, um, no it's nothing."
"Oh, really you found one of those Kamen Riders, that's great! Where is he?" Aiko smiled, patting her head.
"It's Rekka-sama right here, he's able to become a Kamen Rider." She said, pointing to Koutaro who rubbed his head.
"Oh ho. So you're a Kamen Rider, huh? Why not show off a bit." Aiko asked, before closing her eyes 'It's probably a fancy suit of armour or something'
"Do it big bro! She's gonna love your fancy armour." Chouhi said, as Koutaro gulped before nodding.
"O-Okay sure." He said, getting up and walking a bit as he pulled out his Seiken Swordriver and placed it on his waist.
'Eh?' Aiko thought, looking at Koutaro as he pulled out his book and opened it.
BRAVE DRAGON!
There was once a God Beast possessing a great power that would destroy everything… It was a Brave Dragon!
'Eeh?' Aiko thought, as he then slotted the book into the driver, before gripping the sword's hilt and unsheathed it from the belt, making the book snap open.
Rekka Battou!
"Henshin!" Kotaro then proceeded to slash his sword in an X pattern, forming an X shaped flaming slash that flew out as the dragon followed it.
Woah! Oh! Woah! Brave Drag~~~on!
The dragon then began spinning around him very quickly as its body shined before entering into him, transforming him into Kamen Rider Saber, the flaming X slamming into his visor to complete the transformation.
Rekka Issatsu!
When the dragon of valour and Kaenken Rekka meet, the crimson sword destined to penetrate evil will be created!
'EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?!' Aiko screamed in her head, as she saw Saber in all his glory.
"So this is a Kamen Rider." Kaku said, as Kan'u nodded. "Yeah, we were surprised when he first transformed too."
"Hmm, I do admit, while it is flashy he always looks so impressive when transforming." Chōun said with a sly smirk looking at him with Ryofu nodding in agreement while eating some snacks.
"AH BIG BRO IS SO COOL!" Chouhi cheered, with Totaku nodding. "I'm so happy I got to meet a real Kamen Rider."
'Oh my god! Oh my god! There's a real Kamen Rider in this world?! I just made it up to make Yue-chan happy! Why would a Kamen Rider be in the romance of the three- wait a minute' she said, as Saber returned to normal.
"Um, was that enough?" Koutaro asked, rubbing his head as Meika looked at Koutaro.
'There never was a Rekka in Romance in the three kingdoms…and he looks…kinda familiar…oooooohhhhh' Meika thought, her eyes widening.
Meika looked over at Koutaro walking up to him and grabbing his hand. "Hey do you mind if I just talk with you privately for a moment."
"Oh uh su-woah!" Koutaro jumped, when Meika grabbed his arm and began dragging him away while the others watched confused.
"You! You're from earth aren't you?!" Meika asked, as Koutaro gulped as they stood around the corner.
"Uh yeah, you too, huh. But how did you get here?" Koutaro asked, before Meika retorted. "How did you?"
Koutoro then rubbed his head remembering. "I was a security guard at the museum and besides that other guy I don't think I saw anyone else there."
"AH so that's who you are, wellllll…" Meika said, looking down. "I kinda snuck into the museum so I could quickly finish my report for school."
"Really?" Koutaro asked, with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh come man I had like two more days left before the deadline! I had to do something." She groaned. "Anyway so while I was walking around I noticed you and that other guy fighting then there was that bright light, then I found myself here!"
"I was totes freaking out, seeing a Genderbent version of Romance of the three kingdoms, nice harem by the way." Meika said, making Koutaro blush. "IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!"
"Whatevs anyway, I would have been a goner if I didn't meet Yue-chan, she took a liking to me when I began telling them about Japan and the different series and stuff." Meika said, as Koutaro crossed his arm.
"So that's why she knew about the Kamen Riders…" Kotaro said, crossing his arms.
"That's right, though I think I might have messed up I didn't think she'd believe me! Not only that but they were real in this world." Meika said, as Koutaro nodded.
"Yeah I was surprised too, now that you mention it the Swordsman's armour is a lot like the Kamen RIders…" He said, as Meika laughed.
"Yeah the only thing you need is a bike then you got the total look but not like there's anything like that around this time." Meika snickered, as Koutaro looked down while sweating.
"No… you don't…" Meika said, as Koutaro gulped as he lifted up his Diago Speedy book.
"I may have gotten this book from another swordsman I met." Koutaro explained, as Meika looked at him widened.
"Okay! That does it!" Meika said, walking up to Koutaro. "I wanna come along with you!",
"E-Eh?!" Koutaro gasped, stepping back. "W-Why do you wanna come with us! It'll be really dangerous."
"I don't care! You're my only hope of getting back home so if I have to stick along with you then that's what I'm gonna do!" Meika said, crossing her arms. "I don't care what you want me to do! If it means I can come with you then I'll do it!"
"WHAT!" The two heard, as they looked over to see Kan'u and Chōun watching what they were saying but Kan'u blushed.
"Aisha, how much of that did you hear?!" Koutaro asked, as Kan'u gulped. "O-Only that last part my lord."
"My my, I didn't expect you to be so daring, Meiko-chan, willing to do anything for Rekka-sama." Chōun said, with a sly smirk.
"Daring?" Meiko blinked, before blushing heavily as she realised what she said. "I DIDN'T MEAN THAT YOU WEIRDO!"
"Sure you did, kukuku." Chōun snickered, as Meiko chased after her.
"But that's besides the point. Rekka-sama, what did she mean by you being her only hope in getting back home." Kan'u asked.
"Ah well it looks like Meiko was taken with me by accident when I was brought here." Koutaro explained. "So I guess I do sort of feel responsible for bringing her here so I should at least make sure she can get back home."
"I suppose that does make sense." Kan'u mumbled. "Well if that is your decision then I suppose I cannot go against it."
"Thanks, Aisha." He smiled, making her blush.
A few moments later, Koutaro and the others explained to Totaku about their plan.
"Well that's fair, I suppose you would want to find a way home, Meiko." Totaku said, making Meiko gulp.
"Aw I'm gonna miss you too Yue-chan!" Meiko cried, hugging her as the lord laughed.
"You're leaving?" Koutaro heard, as he looked at Ryofu who had a frown
"Not sure…I want to stay with the dogs…but I don't want you to leave…" Ryofu said, making Koutaro before he walked up to her.
"How about this, when I finish my book next time we meet I promise I'm going to read it to you…how does that sound?" Koutaro smiled, as Ryofu looked at him.
"Promise?" Ryofu asked, making Koutaro smile. "Promise!"
Flashback end
"Man, a lot of stuff really has happened." Koutaro mumbled, as the group of five reached a fork in the road.
"Hmm, which way should we go?" Kan'u mumbled, looking at the two paths before looking over at Chōun. "What do you think, Chōun?"
"Menma…" She sighed, sadly making the others sweatdrop.
"Hmm…OH! RinRin knows!" Chouhi grinned, stepping up between the paths as she sat her staff so that it stood straight up.
"Steady…steady…" Chouhi said, slowly stepping back while letting go of the staff which wobbled for a moment before dropping to the ground, pointing to the path on the right.
"We go that way!" Chouhi cheered, pointing along the selected path.
"We're going to choose our path like that?" Meika asked, with a raised eyebrow as Koutaro shrugged. "We don't have any set destination anyway so why not?"
"I guess…" Meika said, as they began taking the path to the right.
"Menma…" Chōun said, depressively making the others sweatdrop once again,
The path Chouhi had chosen seemed normal enough, just a bit of an incline as they continued walking which nobody was complaining about.
However soon a strangely thick fog began covering the entire forest out of nowhere confusing the group.
"Man, where did this fog come from? I can't see anything." Meika said, trying to see something through the thick fog.
"Stay close Rinrin." Kanu warned, as she held onto Chouhi's shoulder. "We don't want to get lost in this. We might never find each other again."
"Oh! I know Koutaro, why don't ya transform and light our way through the fog." Meika suggested, only to get no response. "Koutaro?"
"Rekka-sama! Where are you! Rekka-sama!" Kan'u called out but no one responded.
"I don't see Chōun either." Chouhi said, as they looked around.
"Could they have gotten lost in the fog somehow?" Meika said, looking around as Kan'u.
"We should keep hold of one another so we don't get lost." Kan'u suggested, with Chouhi nodding, grabbing her hand. "Got it big sis."
"Uh guys…" Meika said, as the warriors looked at the other-worlder. "W-What's that?"
Kan'u and Chouhi blinked, as they looked at each other before looking to where she was pointing to see a large creature hidden in the fog, the only thing they could see was two red eyes.
"WHAT!" Kan'u gasped, before they were met by a powerful wind which sent them flying into the air.
"WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" They yelled, before crashing a good distance away.
"OWIE!" Chouhi said, as the group of three managed to get up.
"Man what was that?" Meika said, rubbing her head while looking around. "Are you guys okay?"
"RinRin is dizzy but okay!" Chouhi said, jumping up.
"Y-Yes, I'm oka-ow!" Kan'u cringed, as she tried to get up.
"Big Sis, are you okay?" Chouhi asked, as Meika checked her foot. "Looks like you injured your foot when we crashed."
"N-No I'm perfectly fi-OW!" She cringed, before Chouhi picked her up with a piggy back.
"I got you Big sis, RinRin saw a big house near here. Maybe we could ask for help." Chouhi smiled, making Kan'u blush.
"Sorry if this is a bit difficult RinRin." Kan'u said, as Chouhi smiled. "Don't worry big sis, it feels pretty with your boobs on my ba-.". "RINRIN!"
"Man these guys are weird…" Meika sweatdropped, before looking aside. "Speaking of which, I wonder how Koutaro and Chōun are doing."
Meanwhile we see Koutaro as he was dragged along by Chōun, completely confused about what she wanted.
"Uh Chōun, I really think we should get back to the others we might get lost at this point." Koutaro said, but Chōun shook her head.
"No…I wished to speak with you privately." Chōun said, making Koutaro blink before frowning. "Chōun… Is something wrong? You're not just upset with the menma, are you?"
"… I… Couldn't protect you." She said, making Koutaro blink. "What are you talking about?"
"Before, I tried to protect you from Ryofu when you were knocked out… But I wasn't strong enough to fight her." Chōun said, making Koutaro cross his arms. "Chōun you don't need to blame yourself for that Ryofu was incredibly strong, and it was all just a misunderstanding by the end."
"It's not just that though." Chōun said, looking down. "When we first met I was taken control by the Megid and even back in the city all I did was sit around and do nothing…I'm worried that I'm becoming more of a hindrance to this group… and to your journey… hah maybe I should just leave."
"Chōun…" Koutaro mumbled, before smiling. "Chōun it never mattered to me about your strength or your skills,heck the whole reason I started travelling with RinRin and Aisha was because we made a promise to be each other's family."
"And to be honest, I also consider you a part of my family too." He said, as she blinked in surprise. "Really?"
"Yeah sure you're a bit weird and you like to tease the others a lot but you're definitely a good person Chōun, I'm glad you're here and I'm sure the others think the same way." Koutaro smiled.
"Family huh…" Chōun said, looking down before a smirk grew on her face. "Maybe you are worthy…"
"Chōun…?" He said, as the girl looked at him as she placed on his cheek. "Chōun, what are you-."
"Sei…I want you to call me Sei, my lord." She said, as she moved in before placing her lips on his.
"HMMM?!" Koutaro grunted, his eyes widening as he was pushed towards a tree before Chōun moved back.
"Ch- I mean Sei…that…what…" Koutaro blushed, making her smile. "Like I said Rekka-sama, you are my lord now you are worthy of it."
"What…do you mean?" Koutaro asked, making her smirk. "Hmm, well at first I only came with you because I thought it might lead me to interesting things…but as I saw you fight and protect people I began to consider joining you properly but now I have decided that you are worthy of becoming my lord, Rekka-sama."
"Sei…I…" Koutaro mumbled, as she grinned. "I devote myself to you Rekka-sama, I will be there for you whenever you need me."
Koutaro gulped at that, not sure what to say at Chōun's offering when they heard the sound of footsteps.
"Who's there!" Chōun yelled, grabbing her spear and thrusting it forward only to be blocked by two swords before they leapt back.
"What! More of those stone swordsmen." Koutaro said, as he got up before someone walked out from the fog.
"Hehe, sorry for ruining your little make out thought I'd come in and have some fun." Zooous said walking in with a smirk on his face.
"You… you're one of those Megid guys aren't you!" Koutaro yelled, as Zooous smirked.
"That's right, I thought I'd come and see what the new Saber is like and maybe find some new candidates." He smirked, as Koutaro placed his driver on his waist.
"We'll have to see about that!" Koutaro yelled, as he pulled out two books before opening them.
BRAVE DRAGON!
There was once a God Beast possessing a great power that would destroy everything… It was a Brave Dragon!
PETER FANTASTIA!
A story of dreams and hopes unfolded by a boy who never grows up…
He then slotted the book into his driver, as he returned the sword and closed the Brave dragon book.
"Here we go… HENSHIN!" He yelled, pulling the sword out as he swung his sword in an X pattern.
REKKA BATTOU!
When two books synchronise, the sacred sword is infused with great power!
A book appeared behind Saber, which opened up allowing small fairy to come out and fly around Saber's left arm and shined brightly as his left side forming the peter fan armour.
WONDER RIDER!
DRAGON! PETER FAN!
The blade equipped with two attributes will be honed
"Allow me to assist you, my lord." Chōun asked, readying her spear as Koutaro nodded. "Be my guest Sei!"
"Hehe, get em boys!" Zooous yelled, as the two stone swordsman dashed towards them.
"Hah!" Saber yelled, as his blade clashed with another rider who looked to be based off a lion due to the large lion on his chest.
"Lion, huh." Saber said, as their blades clashed a few times before Saber jumped back and shot a hook towards the stone rider.
Meanwhile we see Chōun and her Stone Rider who blocked each of Chōuns Strike,
However as the Stone thrusted forward Chōun quickly moved out of the way causing the rider to trip.
"Now's my chance!" She said, before striking forwards but the rider dispersed into smoke much to her surprise.
Chōun watched as the smoke moved behind her and waited for the right moments before spinning around striking the stone rider knocking it mean.
Meanwhile we see Saber as he dashed forwards before attempting to strike at the stone rider.
The stone rider blocked the attack before swinging his sword, sending a water slash at Saber knocking him back.
"Gah, that hurt more than expected, well it is water so it makes sense." He said, holding his chest before looking up. "But I think I have an idea."
Saber moved back up before tapping the brave dragon book causing his left half to glow red.
"HAH!" He yelled, thrusting arms up shooting a stream of fire towards the stone rider who spun his blade around erecting a wall of water.
When the fire hit the wall of water a large steam cloud was created blinding the stone rider.
"Now's my chance!" He said, as he inserted his sword into the driver before pulling it out.
HISSATSU DOKUHA!
REKKA BATTOU!
KAEN! JUJIZAN
He then shot the hook towards the stone rider wrapping it around his body while his sword charged up with fire.
"HAAAAAAHHHHH-GUH!" Saber was about to Strike at the Stone rider until he felt a punch to the gut.
"Don't think that little trick will work so easily." Zooous said, before the two of them simultaneously sent Saber flying back before crashing into the wall.
"REKKA-SAMA!" Chōun gasped, as she dashed towards the two but her Stone rider dispersed into smoke before moving in front of her.
Chōun and the Stone Rider clashed blades, as Chōun tried to reach for her new lord.
"Yeah, I don't think so, you pest!" He yelled, before sending an energy slash at the ground breaking the Cliff.
"Ah!" Chōun gasped, before her and Stone rider fell down the cliff.
"SEI!" Koutaro called, as he watched her fall down the cliff. "NO!"
"You bastard!" Koutaro yelled, grabbing his sword as he moved towards Zooous who moved out of the before grabbing Koutaro's head.
"Heh, you want revenge… Grow stronger… Find more riders… Then you can avenge her." Zooous said, before picking him up and throwing him into the forest.
Zooous smirked, as he and the stone rider left the area.
"Sei…" Koutaro said, struggling to get up as he crashed onto the forest floor before he passed out.
As he did. however we see someone walking towards him.
Estate
Third person P.O.V.
It had taken a while but the three girls had finally found a place that looked like they could get Kan'u's leg treated.
In the middle of the forest was a large estate with a large wall and several small buildings around it.
"Wow! That was lucky! Good thing we found it!" Chouhi grinned, making Meika grin. "Yeah, hopefully it's not abandoned or worse haunted."
"H-Haunted?!" The two Girls said, at the same time as they looked over at Meika who sweat dropped. "Um, j-just kidding let's just get to the door."
A few minutes later they made it to the large estate which was surprisingly a lot bigger than they expected.
"Excuse me, is anyone home?" Meika asked, knocking on the front door of the estate as they had to wait a few minutes for them to get there
"Yes?" They heard, as the door opened to reveal a girl around Chouhi's age.
She wore a white blouse and blue dress with a brown coat and beret. She sported green ribbons on her dress and hat. She had short blonde hair and expressive dark eyes.
"Hey little girl, um our friend has hurt her ankle and we were wondering if anyone in there could help us out."
"Hawawawawawa! Oh no no no! Master Suikyo! Big trouble!" She yelled, running back into the building making the three girl sweatdrop.
"That… Could've gone a lot better." Meika sweat dropped, while Kan'u sweat dropped. "They must not get many visitors."
After a few minutes of waiting the Girl came back with an older woman next to her.
The woman had fair with skin with brown hair that was tied and styled up in a bow like manner with various gold and red hair accessories keeping it together, she was wearing a kimono composed of a dark blue yukata with a teal and yellow obi wrapped around along with a pink and red haori on top of it. On her hand was white feathered fan.
"Oh my, you were right Shuri, she does look hurt." The woman said, helping Kan'u off of Chouhi's back. "Come, come inside, we can take care of your injury."
The three looked at each other before nodding as they entered into the Estate before being taken to a bed room which Kan'u was placed on before the woman took a look at Kan'u's injury.
"Hmm, it certainly isn't broken but it's definitely swollen." She said, before looking up at the young girl. "Shuri, please go and collect my salves. We need to begin bringing down the swelling."
"Yes! Master Suikyou!" Komei said, getting up as Meika did the Same. "I'll help you, I know a thing or two about medicine as well."
Komei nodded as the two headed into the room where they kept all the medicinal herbs.
When they entered the room Meika was surprised to find a variety of herbs.
"Wow, I haven't seen so much medicine in one room before." Meika blinked, while the two looked through the shelves.
"Of course, Master Suikyou is an excellent Scholar; she needs to know a variety of different fields." Komei smiled, as Meika looked down at her.
"You seem to really respect her." Meika asked, as Komei nodded happily. "Of course, I want to be just like her when I'm older."
Meika nodded as they finished getting the materials before the two of them headed back to the others and gave the materials to Suikyou along with a Mixing Bowl.
She poured the powders and liquid ingredients into the small bowl before she mixed them together into a paste, as she poured the paste into the spoon and covered it on the red swelling.
"There we go, all done." Suikyo nodded, as he bandaged Suikyou's wound. "You should keep off that ankle for a while and let it rest, you're all Welcome to stay here until then."
"Thank you for your hospitality." Kan'u smiled, before getting a serious look. "Actually we had two companions with us before getting lost in the fog."
"Hopefully then they'll find their way here then." Suikyo said, crossing her arms with a nod. "Many travellers wander through here… The fog tends to spring up quite swiftly and it is very easy to get lost when it happens."
"Yeah, haha no kidding. RinRin couldn't see anything at all." Chouhi smiled, while rubbing her head.
Knock! Knock!
"Speak of the devil. Shuri, could you get the door?" Suikyou asked, as Chouhi and Meika got up. "RinRin will do it too!". "I'll go too, I'd like a better look around this place."
The three girls walked towards the door with Chouhi smiling happily. "I hope it's big bro! I wonder what happened to him and Chōun."
"It's more likely to be Hyouga." Komei Said, making Meika turn her Head. "Who's Hyouga?"
"Another disciple of Master Suikyou and my senpai." Komei said, before they made it to the door and were surprised at what they found.
"Hyouga?". "BIG BRO!"
"Shuri! Get Master Suikyou! Now!" A man that looked the same age as Meika with short brown hair and blue coloured eyes wearing a long blue coat with a brown shirt under Earth sand brown trousers with blue boots. Hanging next to him was Koutaro who looked very injured.
"Big bro! What happened to him!" Chouhi asked, as the now named Hyouga frowned. "I found him crashing into the forest while I was collecting Materials."
"I'll help you out!" Meika said, helping Hyouga as the two of them brought Koutaro in to get treated.
Medical bay
Third person P.O.V.
"Rekka-sama!" Kan'u gasped, as Koutaro was placed on to a bed with his shirt off revealing a large slash wound.
"Aisha…what happened to you?" Koutaro asked, looking at her bandaged leb as she frowned.
"I sprained my ankle in the fog…but what happened to you and Chōun?" Kan'u asked, as the Young man sighed.
"We were ambushed by one of the Megid and his stone riders." He explained, moving up. "They were too strong for me…and he threw me into the forest…Chōun…or, Sei…she tried helping me but she was knocked down the cliff…I have no idea whether or not she survived…"
"Chōun is String…I'm sure she survived that…" Kan'u said, as Koutaro gripped his Seiken Swordriver
"Of course I know she survived…she's as strong as you are…but that's not the point…" He said, gripping his sword.
. "I devote myself to you Rekka-sama, I will be there for you whenever you need me."
"Rekka-sama…?" Kan'u mumbled, with a worried look in her eyes before Suikyou came back in.
"You should be glad you made it out of there alive." They heard, as they looked up to see Suikyou walking in with Chouhi and Komei next to her.
"Ah, um thank you Miss…" Koutaro said, as Suikyou began applying the medicine on his wound.
"Ah yes I should start with introductions, I go by the name Suikyou Shibaki and the one that saved you is my son Hyouga Shibaki while my Student here…" She said, as Komei straightened up.
"My family name is Shokatsuryou and my given name is Komei." The blonde child introduced with a smile, making the others smile.
"Nice to meet you, I am Kan'u Unchou." Kan'u smiled at the Little girl.
"Yeah! I'm Chouhi Yokutoku, but you can call me Rinrin!" Chouhi waved with her hand up.
"I'm Koutaro Rekka, thanks for the help." Koutaro said, as Suikyou finished wrapping around the bandages. "Our other companion is Meika Akio. Where is she?"
"Ah, Meika said she wanted to go for a wash." Chouhi smiled, making the others nod.
"Well for now you two should rest, your wounds won't heal without proper sleep." Suikyou said, getting up with the other nodding as Koutaro and Kan'u went to get some rest.
However as they rested we see Koutaro staring at his driver, before quickly reaching out and taking it.
We next see Koutaro walking into the forest in the middle of the night, in his hand was his sword.
Despite his wounds Koutaro gripped his hand and began striking against the tree several times and practising different moves by slashing at the air.
As Koutaro did this, we see Kamen Rider Calibur standing there in the darkness watching him.
A few days
Rooms
Third person P.O.V.
"Ah! Now that was a nice bath." Meika sighed, with Relief as she went back to her room isn't he estate where she saw Hyouga prancing back and forth.
"Um, what are you doing?" Meika asked, making the Young man Jump as he turned to the Teenager. "A-Ah! I'm Sorry, I wasn't sure if you were in there or not."
"And what exactly is it that you want?" Meika asked, making him gulp. "I was wondering if I could take a look at the books I saw in your bag? I'm very curious about them."
"Oh! Well if that's all you wanted then sure thing." Meika said, picking up her bag. "Let's just go somewhere more private."
A few minutes later we see Meika with Hyouga sitting on his bed while she showed him some of the books from earth.
"Fascinating… Where did you get these books, exactly?" Hyouga asked, still mesmerised at Meika's books.
"Ahh… Well, about that…" Meika trailed off, trying to think of a good excuse. ' Ah, crap! I can't tell him I'm from another world!'
"Something wrong?" The voice of Hyouga asked, interrupting his thoughts before she looked at her. "Ah, I'm ok. I got those books from overseas thanks to a passing merchant."
Hyouga looked at her before nodding. "Must've been a brave merchant if he came from overseas in the middle of war."
"Yes, yes he was." Meika said relieved he believed her lie.
"May I take a look at them?" Hyouga asked.
"Oh, sure. Not sure if you'll like them." Meika said as she gave him one of her books before he started reading them. As he did, Meika turned her head around the room giving it a good look.
'Hmmm, despite being in the II Century this place is very neat.' Meika thought as she took a good look at the architecture, sure she had seen it in history textbooks but it was a whole different thing experiencing it.
"These texts are very intriguing, they talk about this weird thing called 'Airplanes' in which humans fly." Hyouga said as Meika turned toward him before letting out a laugh. "Humans flying. Can you believe such a thing? This must be some kind of fantastic story."
"Y-y-yeah… Total fantasy, am I right?" Maika said laughing awkwardly.
"Look at this. Some kind of bubble that holds lightning called 'Light Bulb.'" Hyouga said, laughing a little. "Author must've been drunk when he wrote this."
'It's not too far-fetched… Again, this is the past.' Maika thought before noting a big scar on Hyouga's arm.
"Hey, uh, Hyouga. What happened to your arm?" Meika asked, stopping Hyouga's train of thought before looking at the scar and letting out a depressing sigh.
"It's a touchy subject…" He said, with remorse and sadness in his face and voice.
"Oh I'm sorry." Meika apologized for being blunt, even if it wasn't on purpose.
"Don't worry, you didn't mean it." Hyouga said as he looked at his scar as the memory of a man that was at the mercy of a monster that looked like Zooous crossed his mind.
'Don't worry father. I'll avenge you.' Hyouga thought with sheer determination.
"You know…" Meika said, making Hyouga blink as he looked up at her. "Hmm, yes?"
"Not all of the things in the book are a fantasy, I could show you some of the things from it if you want." Meika said, causing Hyouga to move up. "T-Truly!"
"Yup! Just follow me to the kitchen." She said, getting up as the two headed to the kitchen with Hyouga having a look of curiosity on his face.
Meanwhile outside
Third person P.O.V.
"Hah!" Chouhi yelled, as she swung against a tree trying to train up her skill with Kan'u next to her.
"Keep your stance clear, your attacks are too wild, you need to know where you're striking before attacking." Kan'u said, as Chouhi nodded, rushing in and striking again.
"Hmm…" Koutaro sighed, as he watched his two sworn sisters training in front of the tree.
It had been a few days since they had first come to the estate, and their wounds had healed enough to be able to move around a bit more, however they Suikyou had advised not to move around too much.
What worried Koutaro the most however was Chōun who still hadn't returned and he was starting. She could have gotten injured or worse when falling down the cliff, or heck was killed by the stone rider.
'I know I should believe her more…but this wouldn't have happened if I was only stronger. I could've protected her' he said, gripping the Seiken.
"Um excuse me, Rekka?" Koutaro blinked, as he looked over to see Suikyou walking towards him. "It's time to change your bandages."
"Ah yeah, sure thing." He said, getting up while Suikyou watched Chouhi and Kan'u training. "You must be quite proud."
"Proud? Proud of what?" Koutaro asked, as she smiled. "Your daughter and wife look to be very strong, I can see why you married her."
"D-DAUGHTER?! W-WIFE?!" Koutaro stuttered, his face really red. "N-No, it's nothing like that."
"Really? But are Chouhi and Meika not your daughters? Were they born out of wedlock?" She asked, making Koutaro shake his head. "No, more like sworn siblings, after we found Chouhi along the way we adopted her as our sister, same for the two of us and Meika's just our newest companion from my home country."
"Ah I see, I'm so sorry for the mistake." She said, with a bow making Koutaro sweatdrop. "It's fine, let's just get to work."
As they walked off we see Kan'u blushing after hearing Koutaro and Suikyou's conversation.
"Big sis, is something wrong?" Kan'u heard, breaking her out of her thoughts before looking over at Chouhi who looked confused.
"Ah it's nothing, let's keep go-hmm?" Kan'u said, before smelling something. "What is that?"
"I don't know but it smells tasty." Chouhi said, drooling a bit as the two of them followed the new scent and walked towards the kitchen.
As they made their way to the kitchen they noticed Komei also following the smell.
"Komei? I thought you were studying now." Kan'u asked, as Komei blushed. "S-Sorry, the smile kept on distracting me."
"Well then let's go take a look." Chouhi said, much to the others surprise as she barged into the room.
"Wow! That was delicious!" Hyouga said, making Meika grin. "Told ya, I did have to improvise a bit without tomatoes but not bad."
"Hmm? oh, hey guys. What are you doing here?" Meika asked, as the three girls looked around.
"We smelled something really tasty! Were you making something?" Chouhi grinned, looking around.
"Sorry if we were interrupting something, we wanted to see what it was." Kan'u apologised, as Meika grinned. "Ah no problem."
"So what was going on here Hyouga?" Komei asked, as Hyouga grinned. "Meika-Chan was showing me some of the cooking from her home country, Peesa I believe it was."
"That's Pizza buddy." Meika Said, patting his back while the two kids got excited.
"Oh! To try food from another country! I'd like to try some." Komei said, with Chouhi raising her hand. "Oooh! RinRin want's to try some Peesa too!"
"Um, is that alright Meika?" Kan'u asked, making the teen grin.
"Sure no problem, but I think I used the last of the ingredients we'll need plus I'd need a lot more for all of you." Meika sighed, but Komei smiled.
"Everything we've gathered can be found around the forest, I can guide you if you want." Komei offered, making Meika grin. "Huh? Haha, thank's Komei!"
"RinRin what's to go too." She said, but Kan'u crossed her arms.
"I should go too, I don't know about you all going out on your own with only one trained fighter, especially since it's starting to get dark and may get attacked by Bandits or worse." Kan'u said, but Hyouga turned to her.
"I'll go with them, I know how to wield a sword from my father besides mother wouldn't want you going out with your injuries." Hyouga said, making Kan'u sigh. "Fair enough, then I'll trust you two to protect Meika and Komei alright?"
"Sure thing Big sis!" RinRin grinned, before the new group of four began getting ready to go looking for the ingredients.
Rooms
Third person P.O.V.
"And there we go." Suikyou said, finishing off Koutaro's bandaging before noticing something. "Hmm…it's odd your wounds haven't as much as they should have."
"I uh, I guess I just need more rest then." Koutaro said, sitting down on his bed as Suikyou nodded. "I suppose."
"So I was just curious but what happened to Hyouga's father? I haven't seen him around." Koutaro asked, making Suikyou frown. "Ah Nagare…he died back when Hyouga was a child by bandits."
"Oh! Uh geez, I'm sorry um…" Koutaro said, making Suikyou smile. "Don't worry, it was a long time ago… it came as quite a shock, Hyouga even used to say he was killed by father but I'm at least glad things have gotten better since Shuri came around."
"She's your student right? How long have you been teaching her for?" Koutaro asked, making her smile.
"Oh a long time now." Suikyou replied, as she moved around and sat on the bed.
"I've been teaching Komei ever since I first gained my mastery and the right to practise on my own from my own master." She explained, making Koutaro blink. "Really, well how did you two meet?"
"Well you see, her parents died when she was quite young, I don't know whether it was because of the war or bandits but she didn't have any else to go to since many of her relatives died and she was separated from her siblings." She explained, making Koutaro frown.
. "Oh no…, that's a horrible thing to happen to such a young child." Koutaro sighed, looking down.
"You're right about that…and my husband knew this too… he ended up adopting her at 6 years old while I was still learning from my masters and he was still studying swordsmanship." She explained, with a soft smile. "It was a nice few years with the four of us…after I gained mastery, my master gave me this estate to continue helping the people of the village while she retired… I decided while my husband taught Hyouga swordsmanship I would teach her about medicine making."
"Wow…that was so kind of you two, I'm glad things were able to work out." Koutaro said, making her smile back before frowning.
"Perhaps… but at the same time, I feel like because of all the experiences Hyouga and Kumei have gone through while growing up… it has deprived them of a proper childhood… especially since Nagare passed away…" Suikyo explained, looking down.
"As much as I can give them…especially on my own… There are still many things I cannot show them while I am stuck here…" She explained, with a frown.
"I can certainly understand what you mean by that…" Koutaro said, looking down a bit before Suikyou stood up and walked off.
As she did, Koutaro looked up at the setting sun before turning to his driver. "I should leave soon."
We then see Koutaro making his way out of the estate as Kan'u watched him with a raised eyebrow.
Mountain path
Third person P.O.V.
"Because there's a hill, so it's a hill! Even if there's a river, don't pay any mind!" Chouhi sang, as we see the group of four heading back to the estate after collecting the ingredients for Meika's Pizza.
"That's certainly…an interesting song." Hyouga said, looking down at her as the young girl grinned. "Hehe, thanks! Grandpa taught me those tunes!"
Behind them we see Komei walking ahead before looking at Meika behind her. "Is something wrong? You've been staring at me for a bit."
"I was just surprised someone so young knows so much about this stuff, I mean I learned most of this from my studies and from my parents, your teacher must be really impressive." Meika said, making Komei smile.
"Mn! She's one of the best I've ever known!" Komei nodded, grinning happily. "I want to go out and help people just like she does when I'm older, but I still feel like I have much studying left before I can do that."
"Oh come on don't sell yourself short, you were able to help her out so well! Plus, you've been helping Koutaro and Kan'u pretty well with their recovery, you've got a real knack for this stuff."
"Eh-heh! Thank you! I'm trying really hard to be the best I can be." Komei titled, with a big smile. "I'm so happy that Master Suikyo and her family have allowed me to stay when they found me! And even teach her ways after she gained her mastery, that's why I want to work very hard to prove I'm worthy of her teachings."
"Hmm? What do you mean by 'let you stay'?" Meika asked, turning her head making the young girl blush. "O-Oh, it's nothing like that."
"Ah something awkward, gotcha." Meika said, crossing her arms before smiling. "Well hey, wanna ask me anything as payback?"
"Okay…tell me about the Kamen Riders!" Komei said, her eyes sparkling, making Meika sweatdrop. "Uh, wait what?!"
"Chouhi told me about the magic swordsman you met that you called the Kamen Riders, I really wanna know about them?" She asked, making Meika sweatdrop.
"Come on Shuri, you don't actually believe that stuff do you?" Hyouga asked, as Chouhi turned to him. "But when we told you, you were asking like a ton of questions?"
"Um, well uh that was um…" Hyouga blushed at that, making Meika giggle a bit 'Man he's cute when he's all flustered.'
"Well like I've said, I'm still new to the group so I haven't met all of them except Koutaro but I was told of them." She said. "So far they've met three of them, there's Koutaro who is Saber, the swordsman of flames, Zei who is Espada, the swordsman of lightning and Buchou who is Naganita, who is the swordswoman of plants."
"How do they wield their powers then?" Komei asked, making Chouhi grin. "They have these awesome magic books! They can get new powers and even summon huge monsters like Dragons!"
"How would one get such power?" Hyouga asked, and Meika was about to answer but then.
"Oh, I can tell ya all about that." They heard, before turning around to see Zooous walking towards them with the stone rider next to him.
"Who are you!" Chouhi asked, swinging her weapon around and pointing it at Zooous while Hyouga's eyes widened.
"You…you're him…" Hyouga said, gripping his hand.
"Him? What are you talking about… Actually, you do look kind of familiar?" Zooous asked, before Hyouga looked back at Komei and Meika.
"Hyouga…what's wrong?" Komei asked, looking at her adopted brother's face.
"You two, get back and let us keep them busy." Hyouga said, surprising the two of them.
"But you can't fight those guys on your own! We nee-". "Just do it!"
The two slowly nodded before moving, while Hyouga turned to Zooous and drew his sword.
"Um, what's wrong?" Chouhi asked, making Hyouga sigh. "That guy…he's the one…the one who killed my dad."
"Oh now I remember ya, well if you wanna beat me then ya gotta beat him." Zooous said, pointing at the stone rider who struck a fighting position before dashing towards them while Hyouga and Chouhi got ready.
Forest at night
Third person P.O.V.
Koutaro found him in the middle of the night with Kaenken Rekka in his hand along with various branches laying on the floor.
"I need to get better…" Was all he said as he swung his sword and moved as fast as he could towards a bunch of trees before slashing them relentlessly leaving various gashes on the trees as many of their branches fell off, one there even fell down after he cut it in half.
In reality he would've been impressed at the sight of it, seeing how good he was getting with the sword despite his injuries. However, that was not on his mind at the moment.
"Aisha, Sei, RinRin. They depend on me, I can't let them down." He said to himself as he placed Rekka on the sheath and sat down on a cut down log.
After the previous incident he was reminded that not every monster will be the same and that the Megid will wise up and send one that can handle him pretty well and probably kill his friends.
At that moment he shuttered, the thought of the friends hismade on this trip frightened him.
Today he was lucky and the Megid probably knows that and they'll send someone stronger to take him down.
Despite his injuries Koutaro got back up 'I don't want to let them down… I gotta make sure they are safe.'
So Koutaro grabbed his sword once again and pointed it towards another set of trees before charging forward and swinging at one of them.
'I'll promise I'll protect them, I'll make sure they're ok. I'll promise…" Koutaro thought before slashing another set of trees, however when the tree fell down he saw standing there was the purple swordsman.
"You're…Calibur…what are you doing here…?" He asked, while gripping his sword. "You're here to take me down…right?"
"Not yet Flame swordsman, you're not at my level yet, not even to defeat a Megid leader. If you rush in as you are right now you'll die like a worm." He said, making Koutaro look to the ground.
"Even If that's true I'll keep on going." He said before standing up. "I made a promise and I will fulfil that promise."
"Then let's see if you are really up for it." Calibur said before holding up a red book with the picture of an eagle one making my eyes widen.
"A new book… Give it to me!" He said, reaching out for the book as Calibur raised his sword.
"I'll give it to you if you manage to defeat me only with your strength and conviction alone. If you win I'll give it to you, but If you lose I'll use it to annihilate you."
Koutaro eyes widened at that as he closed his eyes before inserting the sword into the driver
"…Alright…I'll prove it." He said, taking out his driver before slapping it on his waist before taking out the Dragon book.
BRAVE DRAGON!
There was once a God Beast possessing a great power that would destroy everything… It was a Brave Dragon!
He then slotted the Brave Dragon book into the driver, before gripping the sword's hilt and unsheathed it from the belt, making the book snap open.
Rekka Battou!
"Henshin!" He yelled as he proceeded to slash the sword in an X pattern, forming an X shaped flaming slash that flew out as the dragon passed by him.
Woah! Oh! Woah! Brave Drag~~~on!
The dragon then began spinning around him very quickly as its body shined before entering into his body, transforming him, the flaming X slamming into his visor to complete the transformation.
Rekka Issatsu!
When the dragon of valour and Kaenken Rekka meet, the crimson sword destined to penetrate evil will be created!
"I'll prove it…I will become stronger!" Saber yelled, as he dashed towards Calibur before the two clashed their blades together.
The two proceeded to swing their swords against each other several times, sparks flying as they tried beating one another.
Saber then moved back before tapping the red book and raised his hand to shoot out a stream of fire, forcing Calibur to move out of the way.
He then raised his sword charging it with dark energy before swinging it, sending an energy slash towards Saber who blocked the attack.
"Hah!" Saber yelled, throwing the blast away however this was a distraction so that Calibur could dash towards him.
Saber didn't have time to block as Calibur took the chance to strike Sabe right where his wounds were, knocking him back.
"G-Gah!" Saber cried, gripping his chest as Calibur walked towards him.
"Do you really think you can beat me with the wounds you have…or grow stronger at all by just swinging wildly at trees?" Calibur said, as Saber forced himself to get up.
"SHUT UP!" Saber yelled, before taking out the Tri Cerberus book and placed it near the tip of the sword.
Cerberus! Hmm! Hmm!
He then proceeded to pull the trigger on his sword causing it to flash yellow.
Shutoku Issen!
He then swung his sword sending three flaming cerberus heads which attacked the Cerberus knocking it towards the river.
"Hmph, fine." Calibur said, as he took out a blue book with the picture of a Pegasus on it before scanning it on the sword.
Hissatsu Read! Jaaku Pegasus!
His sword then began charging up with blue energy before pulling the trigger on his sword.
Kurayami Hissatsu Geki! Shutoku Issen!
He then swung around his sword and sent hundreds of feathers shaped slashes towards the Cerberus head, making it explode and blowing Saber back a bit before he fell to a knee.
"D-Damn it!" Saber said, gripping his chest as Calibur walked towards him.
"I suppose you're not worthy of the power." Calibur said, as he raised the storm eagle book and his sword with Saber looking up to him with widened eyes.
"No…Aisha…" Saber said, looking down but before Calibur could attack him.
"REKKA-SAMA!" They heard, before looking up to see Kan'u jumping in and slashing at Calibur causing him to drop the Storm Eagle Book.
"I don't know who you are! But I will not allow you to strike down Rekka-sama!" Kan'u yelled, as Calibur's eyes widened.
"Aisha…it's you…" He whispered, as Kan'u looked back at Koutaro. "Rekka-sama! Why did you run off into the forest like that! It's dangerous!"
"I'm…I'm sorry…" Koutaro said, looking down at the ground. "Sei…she said she dedicated herself to me like you did…and after seeing her falling down the cliff…and I couldn't protect her…I started thinking that I'm not as strong as you need me to be…"
"So you came out here every night just to get stronger…for us?" Kan'u asked, as Koutaro slowly nodded.
"Rekka-sama, your strength was never the reason I dedicated myself to you." Kan'u said, kneeling down in front of him. "The reason I joined you…is because of your heart…the fact that you wish to protect and believe in everyone…is who I believe the Messenger of Heaven should be."
"Like I Said, I promise myself to serve you and stand by your side… and that means I will act as your sword in any battle…not just because you're the Messenger of Heaven…but because you're my family."
"Aisha…" Koutaro said, before noticing the Storm Eagle Book flew into his hands before the two stood up.
"Even if you have the book it won't be enough to stop me." Calibur said, as Saber grabbed his sword and readied it.
"Maybe alone…" Saber said, before Kan'u turned to him. "…But he's not alone, he's never been alone."
"And we'll show you just that!" Saber said, taking out the Storm Eagle Book before he opened it.
Storm Eagle
It is said that when this Steller's sea eagle appears, a ferocious tornado will occur…
He then slotted the book into his driver, as he returned the sword and closed the Brave dragon book.
"Here we go…,HENSHIN!" He yelled, pulling the sword out as he swung his sword in an X pattern.
REKKA BATTOU!
It's the Tempestuous Dragon~ Eagle!
A book appeared behind Saber, which opened up before it released a flaming eagle surrounded by red wind before it was absorbed into his body.
Saber now had red chest armour over the white part of the suit with an eagle head along with a red feather shaped strip on the front and red leg armour with the boots shaped like an eagle's claws. The helmet also gained another red piece on the middle upper middle part of the helmet, being shaped like an eagle head.
Rekkae Nisatsu!
On savage wings in the sky, the Dragon clad in Hellfire will burn everything out ashes.
Saber looked at his new transformation before he and Kan'u nodded and dashed towards Calibur who got ready. "Fine, then I won't hold back."
"Hah!" Saber yelled, swinging his blade at Calibur who blocked the attack before kicking the swordsman that knocked Saber back and thanks to the Storm Eagle power it pushed him into the air.
Kan'u took the chance to rush in, thrusting her spear forward at Calibur who blocked the attack with his arm.
However Kan'u moved in to throw a kick at the Swordsmen causing him to move back.
'Not bad…Aisha' Calibur thought, looking at the Black Haired girl as Saber moved in.
The two then slashed, clashing their blades, swinging at each other a few times before Saber spun around and slashed at the Swordsmen who scoffed.
Saber raised his sword to swing downwards at Calibur who caught the attack before inserting the sword into the slot on his belt before pulling the trigger.
Kurayami Iai!
Dokugo Issen!
Calibur then channels dark energy into his blade before swinging it upward, launching a large purple energy slash that knocked Saber into the air.
Saber pressed the eagle book before swinging his blade, sending a flaming tornado towards Calibur who blocked the attack with his sword causing it to glow and negating the attack.
"Don't forget about me!" Kan'u yelled, slashing at Calibur's back which forced to turn around and block her follow up attacks.
"Hmph, get out of my way!" Calibur yelled, swinging upward forcing Kan'u to black the attack as she skidded back.
"Aisha!" Saber yelled,before flying towards Calibur as he took out the Pegasus book before scanning it on the sword.
Hissatsu Read! Jaaku Pegasus!
His sword then began charging up with blue energy before pulling the trigger on his sword.
Kurayami Hissatsu Geki! Shutoku Issen!
He then swung around his sword and sent hundreds of feathers shaped slashes towards Saber who braced for impact, but a figure jumped in and blocked the attacks.
The figure then landed on the ground, shocking everyone else at the area as standing there was a new swordsman.
Her armour consisted of a white bodysuit with the sides and the top of her chest being black, she had crimson sleeves, stockings, and a small collar. She wore gold armour at the ends of the sleeves to the wrists to the upper arm alongside gold boots with a crimson on top. She had a crimson robe with gold markings on the front and back with a small armour chest plate covering her upper torso with gold straps holding it together. She wore a gold buckle over the robe with a hold on the left side of her belt. Attached to her belt were four gold structures shaped like side skirts with a bigger pair on the front and a smaller pair on the back.
She wore a black helmet with crimson armour plates, a gold mouth guard, and two orange eye-shaped visors. Above the left eye was the design of a smoke cloud with a gold blade faced horizontally down over the right eye attached to it.
"Who…". "Are…". "You…?" The three of them asked, as the new swordsmen stood up and looked back at Saber smiling under her helmet.
"I am Kamen Sabela, just a passing through Swordswoman of Smoke." She said, with a bow before moving up while twirling her sword.
The now named Sabela then dashed towards Calibur and delivered several quick strikes that Calibur took.
He then took the chance to swing his sword at Sabela who turned a part of her body into smoke allowing the sword to easily pass through.
She then jumped up and kicked the dark rider causing him to skid back.
"Hah!" Kan'u yelled, getting up and thrusting her weapon towards Calibur who blocked the attack.
Kan'u and Sabela then rushed in, both of them striking the Dark Swordsmen several times forcing him to block each one.
The two of them then moved back as Saber swung his sword sending a flaming tornado towards Calibur knocking him back.
"Time to finish this." Sabela said, as she pressed the button on her hilt before pressing the trigger on her sword.
Noroshii Muchuu!
Eien No Hitosashi!
Calibur rushed towards Sabela and swung at her but Sabela transformed into a cloud of smoke to avoid her opponent's attack before returning to physical form.
She then manifests energy butterfly wings from her back and flies into the air before delivering two magenta energy slashes at Calibur knocking him back.
"Now's my chance!" Saber then took the chance to insert his sword into the driver before pulling the trigger twice.
HISSATSU DOKUHA!
HIRYUU SHUUGEKIHA!
Saber was then engulfed in a flaming tornado before throwing a charged kick towards Calibur.
The Dark Swordsman looked at this incoming attack before scoffing as a dark portal appeared below him before teleporting away as Saber hit the ground.
"Oh no…he got away…" Saber said, inserting the sword back into the driver before taking out the two books returning to normal.
"Gggh!" Koutaro said, gripping his chest and stumbling back only for Kan'u to catch him.
"Are you okay, Rekka-sama?" She asked, making him slowly nod with a smile. "Yeah…thanks Aisha."
"Oh, and thank you two um Sabe- huh?" Koutaro blinked, as they looked back to see the new rider was now gone, much to their confusion.
Mountains
Third person P.O.V.
"Ggh!" Hyouga yelled, blocking the stone riders' attacks, barely having a chance to strike back.
Hyouga then moved back dodging the monster attack, before Chouhi jumped in.
"Oh no!" Komei gasped, as she and Meika watched the fight going down.
"Come Hyouga! Chouhi! You got this!" Meika cheered, as they continued fighting.
"How do you like this!" Chouhi yelled, spinning her spear around before striking at the stone rider who raised his sword and blocked the attack.
Chouhi then moved back, before moving and striking the monster's legs forcing him to jump into the air.
This gave Hyouga the chance to rush in and strike the Stone Rider, knocking it back.
"This is annoying, at this rate neither of them will become the rider candidate." He said, before lifting his book. "I suppose it's time for me to step in."
"Alright! We're gonna win!" Chouhi grinned, as she dashed towards the stone rider but then a figure rushed in and knocked her back.
"Huh? What the heck?!" Chouhi said, shaking her head before she and Hyouga looked up to see Zooous in his monster form.
"Heh, you're pretty impressive for a brat! This is going to be fun!" He yelled, before dashing towards Chouhi who was knocked back towards Meika and Komei.
"Chouhi!" Meika and Komei yelled, running up to check in on her as Zooous stomped towards them.
"Chouhi!" Hyouga yelled, as she tried to run to her to assist her but the stone rider moved in and blocked his attack.
"Get out of my way!" Hyouga yelled, as he blocked the attacks before trying to slash at the stone rider.
"That bastard needs to pay." He yelled, slashing at the stone rider causing him to stumble back. "I'm not going to let him…KILL ANYONE ELSE!"
Hyouga raised his sword before slashing straight down, causing the stone rider's body to crack before shattering, the pieces forming around Hyouga's sword and transforming into a Seiken sword driver with a blue water like a hilt.
"This is…" Hyouga said, looking down at the driver before a blue book with the picture of a lion appeared on it.
"No way! He got a driver just like big bro's!" Chouhi gawked, pointing at him as Zooous grinned, turning to him. "Finally…"
"Hyouga! With that you can transform! Just slap the sword onto your waist, insert the book in the middle and pull out the sword!" Meika yelled, as Hyouga looked at her.
"With this…I can use that power." He said, as he turned to Zooous and slapped his driver on his waist causing several flashes to appear in front of his eyes. "I'll do it…I'll fight!"
Seiken Swordriver!
"And then…open this up." Hyouga said, as he then looked at the book, before opening it.
Lion Senki!
This blue mane marks a new history of the noble king's battle…
Hyouga then placed the book into the middle slot of the driver, before gripping the sword's hilt and unsheathed it from the belt, making the book snap open.
Nagare Battou!
"Henshin!" Hyouga yelled, as he then proceeded to slash his sword in a wide-slash pattern, forming a wide shaped water slash that flew out as the blue lion followed.
LI~~~ON SEN~~~KI!
His body then shined forming the rider armour before Lion spun around Hyouga's body form and transformed into extra armour going down his body with the water slash moving back to form a new visor.
Nagare Issatsu!
When the King of Beasts and Suiseiken Nagare meet, the azure sword peels its fangs!
His armor consisted of a black bodysuit with blue lines across it with black arms and legs, the center was completely blue with a blue lion face with yellow eyes on the chest part and armor like lion feet on the legs, along with two blue strips on its back and two attached to the waist, one in the front and one in the back.
The helmet was also split in 3 parts, the bottom left and right black with the top piece being blue with a sword blade in the middle. The front of the mask was decorated with a horizontal slash that flicked upwards to the right.
"Finally, the swordsmen of water blades is here." Zooous yelled, before grinning. "I was almost thinking you'd be a worthless lie, you father! But maybe you can be an actual challenge."
"Woah… is that Hyouga?" Komei gasped, looking at her adopted brother in his new form.
"Yeah hehe…not bad." Meika said, with a smile as the blue swordsman turned to Zooous
"Father…I'll prove it to you…" He said, as flashes of Hyouga's father flashed through his eyes before looking up and striking a fighting position. "I'll prove that I'm strong too!"
Zooous roared, as he dashed towards Blades and tried to slash him but Blades manoeuvred out of the way before slashing Zooous knocking him back.
"Wow! You look so cool!" Chouhi said, running up to him with stars in her eyes as Blades smiled. "Hehe, um thanks."
"Enough! Time to see if you're a good prey!" Zooous exclaimed, before drawing out 2 khopesh swords and launched himself toward Blades with the swordsman of water blocking the attack with the sword.
"I'm going to make my father proud. I carry his will in my sword!" Blades said, before charging towards him with his sword in front as Zooous also dashed with his swords in his hands.
Both of them clashed before slashing repeatedly at each other stumbling back a bit before rushing in.
While Zooous style was more aggressive and animal-like, Blades' movements were more delicate, consisting in dodging enemy attacks and attacking fluidly with accuracy. However, Zooous had animal instincts on his side and made use of his speed to deliver a big punch that sent Blades back.
"I can't give up…" Blades said before rushing again as Zooous got in all fours and charged like a beast with both of them clashing as Zooous started to gain the upper hand, However, Blades soon spotted an opening in the middle of the rush of attacks, thinking quickly he moved out of the way before slashing Zooous in the stomach before kicking him away.
"GHH! So… You're not just talk. That's great, BRING IT!" Zooous said as he charged up his claws with energy before delivering an energy coated slash with them.
"With my life on the line, I can't lose!" Blades said before inserting the sword back into the belt, pressed the trigger and pulled out the sword again.
HISSATSU DOKUHA!
HYDRO STREAM!
At this Blades' sword got covered in blue energy before delivering a water coated slash at Zooous.
Soon both attacks collided with each other cancelling them out resulting in an explosion that sent both of them back.
"You think this is enough to defeat me?" Zooous said getting up before seeing Blades getting up as well before putting his sword once again in the belt.
"I swear on the name of Suiseiken Nagare… That I will avenge my father!" Blades said before pressing the trigger twice.
HISSATSU DOKUHA!
LEO CASCADE!
A water jet shot from the mouth of the lion in his chest trapping Zooous in a water bubble.
Blades then jumped as his feet got covered in blue water like energy before delivering a kick towards him resulting in an explosion.
"Did that do it…" Blades said, landing on the ground while looking at the large smoke cloud but then a blur came from the smoke.
"What?! GAH!" Blades yelled, as he was struck several times before being thrown back to the others.
"Hyouga!" They yelled, running up to him as Zooous rolled his neck.
"Not bad, but you're nowhere near as strong as you need to be if you wanna defeat me." Zooous said, before turning around and looking back at the four of them.
"Next time we meet you better be stronger, or I'll definitely kill you." Zooous said, before dashing off as the others helped Hyouga back to the Estate.
Back at the estate
A few days later
Third person P.O.V.
"There we go, looks like you've finally recovered from your injuries." Suikyou said, as she removed the bandages from Koutaro and Kan'u
"It's a relief, I was starting to go crazy here." Koutaro grinned, with Kan'u nodding. "Yes, I'm happy that we can finally continue our journey
"Actually… I was wondering if I could ask you two a favour?" Suikyou asked, as the two of them looked over at her.
"What is it?" Kan'u asked, as Suikyou looked up to them. "Could you take Hyouga and Shuri along with you on your travels?"
Koutaro and Kan'u were surprised at this, as Koutaro gulped. "What…?"
"Well…now that Hyouga has this new power…him grieving over his father will come back…and I'm worried that he will sneak away sooner then later…he's a smart boy but I don't want him risking his life when henisn't ready but if he has companions to travel with…to keep him in check I'll be more assured that he will be safe."
"And as for Shuri, well she always wanted to see the world… All she knows about the world is what she has studied in books." Suikyou said, before looking down. "However, that isn't enough. What I want is for her to live her dream, out there. She is an intelligent girl and while I do love her I also know that her place is out there."
"Normally I would have gone out with the two of them but sadly, I can't just let the two of them go alone, even with Hyouga's new power… and I can't leave this place because of my work." She said, before turning to the two of them. "So, could you please let her join you on your journey?"
"Rekka-sama…what do you think we should do?" Kan'u asked, as Loutaro looked out the window to see Hyouga trying out his new powers while the others watched excitedly and even talked about the adventure they just had.
One thing he noticed was that Komei looked the most excited of all, rarely needing to leave the large Estate except to go to the village. Any form of excitement for any reason was something fun and exciting for her.
As for the new Swordsmen, he could understand why Hyouga would want to use that power for revenge, specifically remembering the way Buchou reacted to having that power for the first time.
"Are you sure that's wise?" Kan'u asked, remembering the experience she had at Komei's age. "It's not exactly safe out there these days."
"I am aware of that, but I feel like I'd be holding the two of them back by being stuck in here… they wouldn't get the outside world experience they need to become a great Swordsman or a great healer…normally I wouldn't dream of letting them go alone with the issues of the country today, but if they were to go with all of you then I would feel much better about it."
"Are you sure? If you were to let them leave you'd be really lonely here." Koutaro asked, as she smiled. "A little…but that would be a selfish reason for me to keep Hyouga and Shuri here."
'I guess she is right…' Koutaro thought, leaning back with his arms crossed 'I don't want them to be stuck here for their whole lives… and while I do think Suikyou will be lonely…having another Swordsman and someone knowledgeable in medicine will be really helpful…' he thought, before looking over at Kan'u who nodded.
"I suppose, a new friend is always something nice to have." Koutaro smiled, while Kan'u nodded. "If this is truly what you want, then Komei can come with us if she wants to."
"Thank you two, thank you very much… All I can ask is that you look after her two." She asked, as they smiled looking at each other before nodding.
"We promise."
The next day
Third person P.O.V.
We see our new group of 6 waiting outside of the Estate as Suikyou says goodbye to Komei and Hyouga.
"Make sure to keep Shuri safe, and remember that you two will always have a home here." Suikyo said to Hyouga and Komei who nodded
"Don't worry mom, I promise I'm going to keep her safe." Hyouga said, with Komei nodding. "We promise we'll come and visit!"
"I can't wait to hear your stories." Suikyo smiled, tears welling up in her eyes before Komei bowed.
"Thank you for always taking care of me, Master." Komei said, tears welling up in her eyes before Suikyou rushed in and embraced her. "It's mom…you've always been my daughter."
Koutaro, Kan'u and Chouhi smiled at that before hearing sniffing as they looked over at Meika who was sniffing.
"S-Shut up, I'm not crying…s-someone's cutting onions…" She said, before looking away as Hyouga and Komei ran up to them.
"Everyone, shall we go?" Komei smiled, as Hyouga turned to Koutaro and bowed. "I look forward to working alongside all of you."
"Alright then…let's go!" Koutaro smiled, as they all headed off for the next adventure.
However as they walk off we see Sabela watching them from the forest, before returning to normal revealing Chōun.
"I'm glad you trusted in me enough to know I would have survived that, Koutaro." She smiled, looking down at her new Seiken. "I certainly didn't expect this new power either…"
"I still need to learn how to use this new weapon…but when I master it, I'll stay in the shadows protecting you…my master." She said, before turning around and walking off.

And done woo boy that chapter took awhile, I had started it back in like April but I had gotten writers block and couldn't continue it,
But anyway what did you guys think of the chapter! Not only do we finally have Kamen Rider Blades but now Sei is Kamen Rider Sabela.
As for why, well this was around when she started calling herself Kachou Kamen so it just made sense to me.
But anyway how about we get to the reviews:
DCDGojira: Thanks glad you liked it
Anyway with that said, don't forget to review this story and of course.
