The face beneath the darkness and the returning lion
"So even though Kurayami is one of the two original Holy Swords, there is a limit to how much Mana it can absorb at any one time, interesting." The out of armor Calibur commented as he glanced at the sword of darkness.
"So that what Calibur looks like underneath his armor." Joyeues thought, a small smile appearing underneath her helmet.
"That...can't be right…." Saber muttered in a shock tone, eyes widening.
"Daichi Kamjio?!" Slash exclaimed in a shock tone of voice as he stared at a man with short black hair and wearing a suit.
"Eh?" Both Joyeues and Blades said in a confuse tone of voice.
"Didn't he died during the battle 10 years ago?" Blades asked, glancing towards Saber.
"….." The swordsman of flames became silent, not sure what to say.
With Espada, her body has started to shake.
"Why….WHY ARE YOU WIELDING KURAYAMI?!" The swords-woman of lighting demanded as she took a step forward.
"Can you handle the truth though? The truth isn't for someone with a faint heart." Daichi asked, causing Espada to growl in anger.
"TELL ME!" Espada shouted as she began to charge towards the wielding of Kurayami.
However, the swords-woman of lighting only took a few steps before collapsing onto the ground.
"It looks like the after-effects of using an Wonder Combo is starting to take effect!" Blades said as he rush towards Espada's side.
Daichi stared at Espada for a few seconds before opening a portal with the sword of shadows.
"Hey! Come back here!" Slash shouted as he attempted to lunge towards Daichi.
However, the wielder of Kurayami was faster to enter the portal, even though he hobbled a bit, before it closed.
"Darn it." Slash muttered in annoyance.
"….What should we do now…..?" Joyeues asked, starting to feel awkward as things went differently than she thought.
"…..We head back to base. The others will need to know this." Slash responded in a low tone of voice, making Joyeues nod her head.
With Espada, the swords-woman of lighting is glaring at the spot where Daichi disappeared.
Back at base, Fiona is doing clearing in the entrance hall.
This ended when the doors to the Sword Of Logos Headquarters opened, a bit forcefully though.
"Welcome back. How the-" Fiona began to say before stopping as Donna marched pass her, eyes covered by her hair.
"…...Did something happened on the mission?" Fiona asked, glancing towards the others with have the air of awkwardness around them.
"Yeah….you can say that…." Asta responded whilst scratching the back of his head.
"Can you call the others, we have something important to tell them." Tetsuo said, making Fiona to nod her head whilst starting to become worried.
"WHAT?!" Both Sophia and Ryo exclaimed at the same time, both gaining shock expressions on their faces.
Everyone, apart from Donna, is currently in the meeting where the returning Magic Knights, plus anti-magic bird, told them the mission's success and the fight between them and Calibur before revealing his identity.
Whilst Sophia and Ryo gained shock expressions on their faces, Fiona and Rin became confuse.
"Daichi…..is the wielder of Kurayami…?" Sophia muttered, becoming confuse.
"Eh…..what is going on? Isn't a good thing that he's still alive…..Sort of?" Rin asked, she knowing about those who fell in the battle ten years ago.
"Well….It depends how you look at it…." Ryo responded whilst crossing his arms.
"Who was the previous wielder of Kurayami? You three seemed to be more shock about the identity of current Calibur rather than the fact that Mr Kamijo is still alive." Noelle asked, gaining a slight frown on her face.
Sophia closed her eyes for a few seconds before re-opening them and began to speak.
"The previous wielder of Kurayami is Hayato Fukamiya, the father of Donna." Sophia responded, making Noelle, Asta, Rintaro, Rin and Fiona to widen their eyes.
"Kurayami was previously owned by Big Sis's dad?!" Asta exclaimed in a shock tone of voice.
"Why are you acting like that, Asta. I thought you knew something?" Noelle asked, giving the wielder of Rekka a questioning look.
"I only recovered memories of my mum, that's all." Asta responded, raising his arms into the air slightly.
"That explains why Donna has an obsession of charging towards Calibur and demanding answers from him about why he betrayed the Sword Of Logos….." Rintaro commented, making Sophia nod her head.
"Yes. For the last ten years, Donna has been weighed down with the knowledge that it was her father that betrayed the Sword Of Logos…..or so we thought." Sophia responded, gaining a sad expression on her face.
"So what happened to Donna's dad?" Rin asked, causing the room to feel cold all of a sudden.
"I think we all have a good idea about what happened to Hayato." Ryo responded, making Rin to nod her head slightly.
"An important question is when he took Kurayami. It was chaotic when the battle happened." Tetsuo pointed out, causing Sophia to gain a deep frown on her face.
"I think it was sometime after the battle….." Asta responded, making everyone gained a surprise expression on their faces whilst turning their attention towards the ash-white hair teen.
"Are you sure about that, Asta?" Noelle asked, raising an eye-brow.
"In my memories of the battle, I saw Mr Kamjio fighting Calibur before getting knocked down. Mr Kamijo must got up again and continued his fight with Calibur before striking him down and then took Kurayami." Asta explained, making Sophia's frown deepen slightly.
"That doesn't explain Hayato's actions…..unless…." Sophia muttered before starting to gain a bad feeling.
"Did you thought of something, Captain?" Rintaro asked, starting to become worried, along with everyone else.
"I just thought that maybe….Daichi somehow managed to put Hayato under some mind-controlling spell in order to make us think that Hayato betrayed us." Sophia explained, making everyone tense.
"Well, he pretty much did a good with that." Ryo admitted, making Tetsuo nod his head in agreement.
"How was Mr Fukamiya acting before the battle?" Noelle asked, causing everyone to turn their attention towards the silver hair girl.
"Why are you asking?" Sophia asked, becoming curious.
"I was just thinking that something might have happened with Mr Fukamiya before the battle occurred." Noelle explained, causing the captain of the Sword Of Logos to gain a thoughtful expression on her face, becoming silent for a few seconds before remembering something.
"I remember Hayato heading to the main branch of the Sword Of Logos, wanting to discuss something with Master Logos." Sophia began to explain, trying to remember the details.
"And when he got back he seemed….more focus for some reason." Ryo said, making Sophia nod her head.
"What was Donna's father wanted to discuss with Master Logos about?" Noelle asked, becoming curious.
"He didn't say, but Hayato did acted more differently, which lasted a few days, at which point the large scale battle happened without any warning." Tetsuo responded, making Noelle nod her head slightly.
"Are you trying to say that both Donna's father and Mr Kamijo worked together to betray the Sword Of Logos?" Rintaro asked, making Noelle shake her head slightly.
"I wouldn't say that. It could be that Mr Fukamiya discovered something and when he talked to Master Logos about it, it ended up with him turning his back on the Sword Logos. So when Mr Kamijo…..possible killed Donna's father, he could have told him about the discovered information, leading to Mr Kamijo to take Kurayami and leave the Sword Of Logos." Noelle explained, making Rintaro to frown.
"That must be some serious information if it caused two members to turn their backs on the Sword Of Logos." Rintaro commented, making Noelle nod her head in agreement.
The comment also caused Sophia, Ryo and Tetsuo to glance at each other worryingly.
"What about your other childhood friend Asta? Didn't she disappeared during the battle." Fiona asked, causing the ash-white hair teen to blink his eyes slightly.
"Are you saying that Luna is somehow involved with Mr Fukamiya's actions?" Asta asked, causing Fiona to shrug her shoulders slightly.
"Well…..I can't actually remember anything about Luna apart from her disappearing into that portal." Asta responded, gaining a sad look in his eyes.
"Have you met this Luna girl before since you and Captain Charlotte use to babysit Asta when he was young?" Tetsuo asked, turning towards Ryo who nodded his head.
"I do remember Luna. She, Asta and Donna usually read together from that "Wonder Story" book. I sensed a lot of Mana coming from the girl, she would have made an excellent Magic Knight if she was here….." Ryo said before blinking his eyes as he realize something.
"Now that I think about it, neither of us actually saw Luna's parents." The vice-captain of the Sword Of Logos admitted, causing surprise expressions to appear on everyone's faces.
"R-really?" Tetsuo asked, making Ryo nod his head.
"That is strange….." Rintaro muttered with a frown on his face.
"…" Sophia became silent for a few seconds before speaking.
"Anyway. When I report to Master Logos about this discovery, I may try to find out what he and Hayato discussed about ten years ago." Sophia said, making everyone nod their heads.
"Now the next thing is making sure that Donna-chan is alright." Rin said, making everybody nod their heads.
Within Liberation, the training room is completely blackened with how much lighting Donna has released due to her anger.
"Ha…..Ha…...Ha…." Donna pant heavily, holding Ikazuchi tightly in her hands.
"Nothing…..has changed….." Donna muttered in an angry tone of voice.
"Mr Daichi…...what the hell happened between you and Father!?" Donna questioned in her head.
"You certainly got yourself a beaten from them." Licht commented to Daichi who is sitting down whilst getting healed by an Eye Of The Midnight Sun's Mage.
"I was simply unaware about the limitations that Kurayami holds." Daichi responded simply, causing Licht to smirk slightly.
"I see, but are you upset that your identity has been revealed now?" Licht questioned, making the wielder of Kurayami to shake his head.
"Not at all. Most of the tasks that I attempted to achieve are done…." Daichi responded, making Licht nod his head slightly.
"Its a pity that you haven't completed any of them though." Licht pointed out, causing Daichi to glare at the leader of the Eye Of The Midnight Sun.
"Sorry, sorry." Licht said, backing away from the wielder of Kurayami just as the Mage finished healing Daichi and leaving the room.
"By the way….I heard that you and Sally are working together on some sort of project." Licht said, making Daichi raised an eye-brow.
"Does the entire organization knows about this?" Daichi asked, making Licht nod his head.
"Pretty much." Licht responded, causing the wielder of Kurayami to sigh.
"The project is in its second phase, so it won't be long until its completed." Daichi explained, making Licht nod his head slightly.
"So that what you you look like underneath the armor." A voice said, making both males to jump before turning their attention towards the source of the voice to see Sally.
"Sally? What are you doing here?" Licht asked, becoming curious.
"I want to speak to Mr Kamijo that the Wonder-Ride book is completed." Sally responded as she held up a Wonder-Ride book which is more larger and thicker than a normal Wonder-Ride book which has a picture of a single purple dragon being surrounded by 4 golden dragons underneath the title of "Jaou Dragon".
"Excellent. Well done." Licht said just as Sally passed the purple boarded Wonder-Ride book to Kamijo.
"So this the Wonder-Ride book that will take me down a new path." Daichi commented as he felt the Demonic Mana coming from the Wonder-Ride book.
From within the Vermillion estate of the Royal Castle, Fuegoleon is sitting at a desk doing paperwork.
Even though he has taken leave from the Crimson Lions Magic Knight squad, there're other things that he can do.
"But still, losing an arm is difficult to get use to." Fuegoleon admitted in his head as he glance down cut off right arm which is replaced by an arm made out of flames which he created from his magic and wouldn't burn anything.
Even though he'd simply replaced his missing arm, Fuegoleon thought it would be best if he took some time away from the Crimson Lions and let his body gradually get use to the missing limb.
Glancing down at the paperwork, Fuegoleon too a small sigh and stood up from the table, deciding to take a small break before making his towards a window.
"I wonder when Mereoleone arrives? Leopold returned a few days ago, saying that he'd managed to find Mereoleone and persuaded her to lead the Crimson Lions, but she can be unpredictable at times…" Fuegoleon muttered as he stare out of the window.
"Missed me that much, huh?" A voice suddenly asked, causing Fuegoleon to quickly turn around to see a female with long wavy Vermillion coloured hair and blue eyes.
She's also wearing the same style of clothing as Fuegoleon.
"Mereoleone. You're back." Fuegoleon said, confirming that the woman is his and Leopold's older sister, a small smile appearing on his face.
"Yeah, yeah. Just don't make this a tearful reunion." Mereoleone said as she waved an arm to the side.
However, the smile on Fuegoleon's face just widened slightly.
"Well, it's good to see you again." Fuegoleon said, causing Mereoleone to sigh.
"Does nothing goes straight into that head of yours?" Mereoleone muttered whilst shaking her head slightly.
"So what has Leopold told you about the current events that are happening in the Clover Kingdom?" Fuegoleon asked, wondering how much more he need to tell his older sister.
"Just the important stuff like the appearance of the Eye Of The Midnight Sun and how the Sword Of Logos has been more active due to the appearance of the terrorist group and their own missions. Just to let you know, the only reason why I agreed to take the position of captain for the Crimson Lions is to teach the Eye Of The Midnight Sun not to hurt my family." Mereoleone said, saying the last part in a slight aggressive tone of voice.
"Nice to see that you have a caring side after all." Fuegoleon commented, knowing that his older sister would start glaring at him.
After a few seconds, Mereoleone stopped glaring and glance towards Fuegoleon's right arm.
"So, did Mimosa managed to heal you? I heard that she was among the Magic Knights that were at the Royal Capital on the day that it was attacked." Mereoleone asked, becoming curious.
"No, it was actually someone from the Sword Of Logos, Kamen Rider Saber, the swordsman of flames, who'd managed to gain a healing spell at the right moment." Fuegoleon responded, making Mereoleone to widen her eyes before calming down.
"So the sword of flames has chosen a new wielder then….." Mereoleone muttered with a small frown on her face.
However, Fuegoleon managed to hear her, causing him to widen his eyes this time.
"Does Mereoleone knows the previous wielder of Rekka?" Fuegoleon thought, becoming confuse.
"Sorry to keep you all waiting, but there was a few people I needed to speak to." Julius said to 8 of the Magic Knight captains, along with Marx who in the room as well.
As of right now, the meeting of the Magic Knight captains is about to take place.
"You sure do like to take your time, huh." Yami commented, causing Julius to smile sheepishly before coughing into his hand.
"Right! First, I would like to introduce to you all the newly appointed captain of the Purple Orcas, Kaiser Granvorka." Julius said as he gestured towards the door whereupon a male with short pale green hair, plus a moustache, and purple eyes entered the room.
"It is an honor to be working amongst you all." Kaiser said whilst bowing before the new captain of the Purple Orcas sat down in a chair.
"Secondly, until Captain Fuegoleon is able to return to his Magic Knight duties, the Crimson Lions will be lead by Captain Mereoleone Vermillion." Julius said, making said person entered the room.
"So I'll be working with you all then." Mereoleone commented as she glance at the captains.
"That's Fuegoleon's older sister? She seems aggressive." Charlotte thought just as the new captain of the Crimson Lions sat down as well.
"Now the introductions are done, lets get the meeting started." Julius said as he sat down and gestured to Marx.
"Right. Due to efforts of the Black Bulls and the Sword Of Logos, two members of the "Third Eye", Vetto the despair and Fana the hateful, have been dealt with, leaving just Ryha and Licht from the Eye Of The Midnight Sun. From studying Vetto's body, we learn that the terrorist have been using Demonic Mana in their cause. As of right now, we aren't sure if the usage of Demonic Mana is just the "Third Eye" or if other members of the Eye Of The Midnight Sun are capable of using Demonic Mana as well. However, it is believed that the terrorist group may have gained access to the knowledge of Demonic Mana from the Megid." Marx explained from a piece of paper.
It was at that moment that Charlotte raised her hand.
"Is there something you want to add, Captain Charlotte?" Julius asked, turning his attention towards the captain of the Blue Rose Magic Knights.
"I just want to ask if Captain Mereoleone and Captain Kaiser have been informed about the reality of the Sword Of Logos's activities?" Charlotte asked, making Julius nod his head.
"Yes. I informed them earlier, getting approval from Captain Sophia first." Julius replied, making Charlotte nod her head.
"It was certainly shocking revelation that there exists a different world next to ours." Kaiser commented as he stroke his moustache.
"This is a giant world we're living in. anything is practically possible." Mereoleone said whilst shrugging her shoulders slightly.
This cause some slight confuse expressions on some of the other captain's faces.
"From her lack of reaction earlier, could it be possible that Captain Mereoleone already knows about Wonder World? She could have somehow got dragged into Wonder World and decided to explore before encountering the Sword Of Logos who brought her back to the Clover Kingdom and decided to keep quiet about it?" Julius thought, becoming interested at the possibilities.
It was at that moment that Nozel raised his hand.
"Yes, Captain Nozel?" Julius asked, turning his attention towards the captain of the Silver Eagles.
"Speaking about being informed, why were we kept in the dark about the missions on the Magic Stone retrieval from the Seabed Temple and Witches Forest? I understand about the Sword Of Logos, since their activities are kept secret. But the Black Bulls?" Nozel asked, gaining a suspicious expression on his face.
Him and the rest of the captains have been updated on the current events sometime before the meeting.
This cause the Wizard King to gain a nervous expression on his face.
"As you are aware about the incident with the former captain of the Purple Orcas, I was concerned about information getting leaked, so I decided to give the retrieval mission at the Seabed Temple to the Black Bulls because they aren't tied down by social relations and the Sword Of Logos due to the possibility of the Megid joining the Eye Of The Midnight Sun on their own mission. For the retrieval mission at the Witches Forest…..that was originally for a different purpose for the Sword of Logos whilst that was the birthplace of one of the Black Bull members. It was just unfortunate that it turned into a battle between the Magic Knights, the terrorist group and the Diamond Kingdom, which was lucky since they weren't after the Magic Stone." Julius explained, making Nozel nod his head slightly, yet still having a suspicious expression on his face.
"Just the Black Bulls and the Sword Of Logos? I remember gaining a report from one of my underlings about spotting you will your hair down at the beach on the same day that the Eye Of The Midnight attacked." Jack explained as he look at Charlotte with a small grin on his face.
"That sniveling Green Mantis actually reported about me?" Charlotte thought, becoming slightly surprise at this piece of news.
"What are you talking about? My squad members thought that it would be best if I take some time off, along with spending some quality time with Sora, it was just pure coincidence that we met the Black Bulls and the Sword Of Logos there." Charlotte explained, acting confident.
"That is true. I attempted to speak to the kid by prickly princess wouldn't let me." Yami said as he raised a hand.
"You will just be a bad influence on Sora." Charlotte retorted, which just caused a small smirk appear on Yami's face.
"…..Is this "Sora"…..your child?" Kaiser asked, becoming slightly confuse whilst Mereoleone has a small look of interest on her face.
"Yes, Sora is my son….whose father just happened to be a member of the Sword Of Logos." Charlotte responded, making a surprise look to appear on Kaiser's face.
"Getting back on track…" Marx said, coughing into a hand, causing everyone to turn their attention onto the advisor of the Wizard King.
"Whatever if the Eye Of The Midnight Sun already had access to information on Demonic Mana or they gained it through the Megid, the Megid are responsible of infusing Demonic Mana into the Alter-Ride books, allowing two of the "Third Eye" to don armor. Captain Sophia, have you got any information to add to this?" Marx asked, glancing towards the captain of the Sword Of Logos.
However, Sophia didn't seemed to respond.
"….Captain Sophia?" William asked as he tap Sophia on the shoulder, him being one of the two people sitting next to her.
"Hm?! Yes?" Sophia asked, snapping out of her thoughts.
"Is everything alright, Sophia? You seemed to be spacing out." Julius pointed out, sounding slightly worried.
"Sorry, but I just been thinking over things…." Sophia said, causing everyone to glance at each other.
"Is it personal stuff or it is related to the current events?" Julius asked, becoming slightly curious.
"….A few days ago, we in the Sword Of Logos discovered some shocking news about Calibur." Sophia responded, making eyes widened.
"Did you discovered why Calibur turned his back on the Sword Of Logos?" Charlotte asked, sounding hopeful.
However, Sophia shook her head.
"Not exactly. Its…..something that makes that subject more confusing." Sophia asked, causing Charlotte to gain a confuse expression on her face.
"Now that I think about it, you never told us the real identity of Calibur." Nozel said, causing a few heads to nod.
"….The name of the person who wielded Kurayami is Hayato Fukamiya, the father of Donna Fukamiya, the current wielder of Ikazuchi, the sword of lighting." Sophia explained, making Nozel widened his eyes as he remember Donna as being one of the Magic Knights that defended the Royal Capital against the Eye Of The Midnight Sun and helped him and the others when they got transported into Wonder World.
"Did you left out the actual name of Calibur because we may start to see the girl in a negative light?" Yami asked, causing a frown to appear Sophia's face.
"It wouldn't be surprising, it happened before." Mereoleone commented before glancing towards Nozel.
"There's a difference." The captain of the Silver Eagles responded, knowing what the captain of the Crimson Lions is talking about.
"The principle is still the same." Mereoleone responded back whilst folding her arms, making Nozel to sigh slightly.
"So what was the shocking news other than the reason why Calibur left the Sword Of Logos?" Julius asked, him and the rest becoming confuse.
"We original believed that it was Hayato who betrayed us 10 years ago. But thanks to the combined efforts of Saber, Blades and Espada, they managed to break Calibur's armor, revealing that Kurayami has been wielder by someone else, Daichi Kamijo." Sophia explained, causing a shock expression to appear on Charlotte's face.
"What?! He's alive?!" Charlotte exclaimed, making Sophia nod her head.
"Then Hayato….." The captain of the Blue Rose muttered, starting to gain a bad feeling.
"We aren't sure about Hayato's fate, but it is certain that Daichi took Kurayami after the battle." Sophia explained, making Charlotte nod her head slightly.
"Have you informed your leader about this?" Julius asked, causing Sophia to nod her head.
"I have, and I attempted to ask about some insight as to why Hayato and Daichi betrayed the Sword Of Logos. However, Master Logos didn't gave me a proper answer." Sophia explained, causing a frown to appear on Julius's face.
"I see…." Julius muttered as he clasped his hands together.
"So how is Miss Fukamiya? It would be obvious that she would be effected the most by this development." William asked, becoming worried.
"Well…..she completely destroyed our training room when she and the others got back from their mission." Sophia responded, making the captain of the Golden Dawn, plus the other captains, Wizard King and advisor, to pale.
"Heh. I guess that this proves that we shouldn't anger a lighting Mage." Rill commented, attempting to lighten the mood…..but failing.
"So Donna will be even more focused on gaining the truth, turning her attention towards Daichi instead." Charlotte commented, making Sophia nod her head slightly.
"What sort of person is this "Daichi Kamijo" person?" Yami asked, becoming curious.
"Daichi has a strong desire of protecting the world and despite not wielding a proper Holy Sword, he was a skilled Magic Knight for the Sword Of Logos. He was also the teacher of the previous Saber, Richita Staria." Sophia explained, causing mostly everyone to become slightly surprise at the name of the previous Saber whilst Mereoleone flinch slightly.
"Why does that name sound familiar?" Nozel thought, becoming confuse whilst showing no reaction on the outside.
"So the only way to gain the whole story is by fighting Daichi then." Julius said, making Sophia nod her head sadly.
"I'm afraid so, and it very likely that Donna will be at the head of the charge, regardless of our warnings." Sophia responded, making the Wizard King nod his head.
"Well. Since everyone is on edge, we should probably discuss about the upcoming event, the best chance of calming everyone's nerves." Julius said, making everyone nod their heads.
And there we go, the person underneath the armor of Calibur has been revealed, Daichi Kamijo, something that cause Donna to go on a complete destructive spree. Mereoleone also made her appearance, along with the new captain of the Purple Orcas, who seemed to have some knowledge on Rekka and the previous wielder. Luna is also mentioned in this chapter. Bad news, Sally has completed the "Jaou Dragon" Wonder-Ride book, So expect for Calibur's power-up form to make a early apperance in this story. I originally planned on having this two separate chapters, but I found them too short, so I decided to combined them.
In Revice, the conflict between siblings has intensified as Ikki has decided to fight Daiji, like how brothers squabble at times, whilst Vice and Vail fight each other. Hideo himself has joined the battle, transforming into his own Giffdemos form and completely destroying the other Riders before killing Tasuke. Genta and Yukimi seemed to have a argument of there own...although it was just an act.
With the Revice move, with the name being "Battle Familia", we have news about more Kamen Riders appearing. The first is called Kamen Rider Daimon. The person who will be Kamen Rider Daimon is called Azuma, an ally to Hideo who also made a contract with Giff. However, he has plans on judging the existence of humankind rather than letting Giff enslave them. Unfortunately, there isn't any images for the armor, but it stated that his primary form will be based on a octopus whilst using the same Driver that Kamen Rider Chimera wields. For the third movie Rider, its seemingly based on a whale. Unfortunately, we don't have a name for the blue-armored Kamen Rider, but they will use the Vail Driver to transform and is also equipped with what seems to be the "Crocodile" Vistamp, based on Kamen Rider Wizard.
The "Hedgehog" Vistamp has also been revealed, based on Kamen Rider Kiva. Kivat would certainly be annoyed at this.
A side story will be released which talks about the birth of Kamen Rider Chimera, whose name is Ryu Mukai, along with hinting that they are multiple Chimeras. Seiji Takaiwa, the famed suit actor of a majority of the primary Heisei Kamen Riders, will also appear in the side story.
Please review and until next time.
Dragon Rider 66:
1) I didn't thought of that! Oh well, at least the Star Festival would be a good opportunity for Donna to release all the anger that she'd had gained due to finding out that someone else has been wielding Kurayami instead of her father.
2) I didn't thought of that, but yeah, Tetsuo will be keeping a close eye on Reika whenever she's around.
3) Well, everyone, apart from Noelle, Rintaro, Rin and Fiona, are certainly shock by Calibur's true identity whilst Donna completely destroyed the training room.
4) Yeah, Hideo certainly is making this difficult for the Riders. It won't be anytime soon for Daiji to be brought back to his senses, still convinced that humanity surrendering to Giff is the only way to survive.
5) I think that Richita will be more startled at the fact that she's gaining attention from the ladies rather than being embarrassed, based on her personality. The ladies that have been flirting with Richita when she's transformed as Saber will be shock when they start to hear the swords-woman of flames speaking in a female voice. There would certainly be numerous men who would be running away from a irritated Richita. Poor Asta when he finds out about his mum's bi-curious nature, especially if it from a female that Richita dated as an experiment.
6) The next episode certainly shows George's work in action.
7) Only Chimera's arms and legs are retooled from Revi's Barid Rex Genome, so there is a chance that the suit is still intact.
8) That would lead to a confusing conversation as one person attempts to Geats or Geiz, but the other responds instead.
9) I'm not sure about everyone, but Noelle will likely be hesitate on asking Tetsuo for a upgraded broomstick.
10) If Vail managed to get a contract out of Daiji, then that would possible lead to Live getting a new power-up for, which be a demonic version of the Holy Live form.
11) Daiji certainly will gain a earful from his mum when she finds out about his action towards his other siblings.
12) Dominate is already married, so she's a definite "no" for the Sword Of Logos's attempt for finding a match for Tetsuo.
13) I completely forgot about the Ptera Genome! Thanks for pointing that out. For a likely candidates to be Live/Evil, it could be a elf-possessed Magic Knight, with the elf still possessing the human even when the reincarnation spell has been lifted. For Demons, I'm not sure about them at the moment. For the Legend Riders, the mythical-type Riders, like Wizard, Kiva and Agito, can easily be inserted into the world of Black Clover, but the technology-type Riders...not sure. I have an idea that since Vice has the ability to possess objects when Ikki stamps something with the "Rex" Vistamp, it could be a possibility for Asta's version of Vice to possess a Grimoire and use spells within that Grimoire, although finding it much easier with a five-leaf clover Grimoires and Grimoires that belongs to the people who are Devil hosts.
Brave Kid: From what Julius said at the end of the chapter, I think you have a good idea what's happening next.
23bebal01: Possibly, at some point.
mastergamer14: I'm not sure about a crossover story between Saber and Zero-One right now and for Saber X Ghost crossovers, I haven't seen them, so it's a bit difficult to say about them.
itpowertime: Sorry, but its the same with canon. However, everyone should stay as far away from Donna as possible.
