Let the Star Festival begin
"Star Festival?" Asta asked, becoming confused as he tilt his head to the side.
"Yes. Its a celebration to honor the achievements of each Magic Knight squad. The number of stars that each Magic Knight squad has gained throughout the year will be shown and then ranked." Sophia explained, making Asta to nod his head slightly.
"Normally we don't take too much interest in the rankings since we've been more focused on our missions, but since we have been more active lately and gathering numerous stars, that may change." Tetsuo added as he glance towards the board which hold their gathered stars.
"Haha. You just can't stand the noise, that's all." Ryo said as he slapped the wielder of Suzune on the back, making him stumble forwards slightly.
"So what is the Sword Of Logos's rank?" Asta asked, becoming curious.
"We don't take part in the rankings, manly due to our duties….which is one of the reasons why we aren't liked by many the upper-class." Ryo admitted, making Asta nod his head again.
"But like what Tetsuo said, that may change due to our increase of activity. And anyway, we're still allowed to enjoy ourselves." Ryo added, a smile appearing on his face.
"I'm just surprised that the Star Festival is still happening, considering with what has been happening in regards with the actions of the Eye Of The Midnight Sun and the Megid." Rintaro said, gaining a slight frown on his face.
"Well, the festival is a good opportunity for people to relax, despite the ongoing threats." Sophia responded, making the wielder of Nagare to nod his head slightly.
"And may help to improve Donna's mood." Rin said, making the room to become silent.
Ever since discovering that the current wielder of Kurayami isn't her father, Donna has become moody, speaking to no one and spend most of her time within Liberation, although everyone can tell that it was a means to release her anger as shown by the burn marks all over the place.
"I hope that Donna returns to normal…." Fiona said, gaining a sad look on her face.
"We all do." Tetsuo said, making the maid of the Sword Of Logos nod her head.
"The festival will be a good opportunity to introduce the new captains, Kaiser Granvorka for the Purple Orcas and Mereoleone Vermillion for the Crimson Lions." Sophia said and the mention of "Mereoleone" caused Noelle to flinch slightly.
"Noelle?! Are you okay?" Asta asked, starting to become worried.
"I-I'm fine. There's nothing to w-worry about." Noelle responded, stuttering slightly.
"I am becoming worried!" Asta exclaimed in his head.
"Is Captain Mereoleone….is someone who tormented you like your elder siblings?" Rintaro asked in a slow tone of voice.
"O-of course not! Its just that she's…." Noelle attempted to become up with a response, but her voice trailed of as she can't find a good word to use.
"Is "aggressive" a good word to use?" Sophia suggested, making Noelle nod her head slightly.
"I-is she that scary?" Rintaro asked, starting to become slightly scared himself.
"I guess that the best idea is not to make her angry." Tetsuo suggested, making Rintaro nod his head.
"Now then, I suggested that everyone get ready for the Star Festival. We all want to look our best for the public." Sophia said, making everyone nod their heads.
"I should also collect them and ask Vanessa to bring that as well." Sophia thought, gaining a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Whoooooaaa! This is so cool!" Asta exclaimed in an excited tone of voice as he glanced around.
Currently, everyone is at the Royal Capital which is buzzing with activity.
"Okay, everyone! Go and have fun, the announcements for the rankings is at eight." Ryo said, causing everyone to nod their heads before some go in different directions.
"You sounded like a teacher telling their class to go and have fun." Tetsuo commented, making Ryo laugh slightly.
"I guess I do. I need to get going, I'm meeting Charlotte and Sora somewhere." Ryo said before heading in a direction himself.
"And it just me….." Tetsuo muttered to himself before glancing around.
"Where is Captain Sophia? She did say that there are few things that she needed to collect before she arrives." Tetsuo thought, frowning slightly.
"W-why I'm I with Asta?!" Noelle exclaimed in her head as she and Asta walked amongst the stalls that lined the streets.
"We just happened to walk in the same direction, that's all." Noelle thought, attempting to calm herself down.
"Noelle? Is there something the matter?" Asta asked, noticing the slight conflicted expression on Noelle's face.
"I'm fine, Asta. There's no need to worry about me." Noelle responded, acting confident whilst turning her head to the side.
Asta blinked his eyes in confusion whilst Nero, who is sitting in Asta's hair, tilted her head to the side.
"Asta! Noelle!" A voice called, causing the two Sword Of Logos Magic Knights to turn in the direction of the voice to see Sophia before becoming surprise as Kaito, who is walking with a crutch and carrying an object wrapped in bandages, and Kahono are standing next to her.
"Kahono? Kaito? What are you two doing here?" Noelle asked in confusion as she and Asta approach the other three.
"I decided to invite them, thought it would be a good opportunity for them to witness the Royal Capital first hand." Sophia explained, making Noelle nod her head slightly.
"I see. I hope you two enjoy yourselves." Noelle said as she turned towards the two sea-dwellers.
"The beautiful goddess is talking to me." Kaito thought with a slight blush on on his face before shaking his head.
"Y-yes! Its good to be here." Kaito said before glancing towards his sister who is glancing around in quick succession.
"Kahono. I know that you can't talk, but please stop freaking out!" Kaito said, but to no avail.
This cause Kaito to sigh slightly before turning towards Asta.
"So how's Rintaro? Is he….acting like himself again?" Kaito asked, remembering how the wielder of Nagare was mentally weakened with the information that Zoous told him back at the Seabed Temple.
"Yes. He's acting like himself again." Asta responded with a smile on his face.
This caused a smile to appear on Kaito's own face.
"That's good to hear. I was worried that he may still be depressed." Kaito commented before noticing that her sister is glancing towards a musician who is also singing with a slight sad expression on her face.
"Kahono….I bet that she wants to sing." Kaito thought sadly.
Kahono's sad expression was noticed by the others.
"Kaito. Can you please take out your leg." Sophia requested, causing Kaito nod his head before starting to unwrap the bandages off the object, causing Asta, Noelle and Nero to become curious.
After a few seconds, it is revealed that Kaito's cut off leg is within the jar, floating in water.
"Y-you brought your leg with you?!" Asta said in a startled tone of voice.
"Yeah. Not an ideal thing to bring to a festival, but your captain told me to bring it. Its been preserved with water magic." Kaito explained in a sheepish tone of voice.
With Sophia, the captain of the Sword Of Logos took out a bottle containing a red liquid.
"Hey. Isn't that…." Noelle began to say, slowly recognizing the bottle just as Sophia opened the bottle, causing the red liquid to fly out of the bottle before surrounding Kaito's right leg and Kahono's neck.
"Vanessa called this "Blood Recovery Magic; Curse-Breaking Blood-Filled Cocoon"." Sophia announced just as blood started to heal Kaito's and Kahono's wounds.
"What…..my leg…." Kaito muttered in a shock tone of voice as he stared at his healed leg.
"Thank you, Miss Sophia." Kaito said with a wide smile on his face as he gingerly place his foot onto the ground.
"Your welcome." Sophia said with a smile on her face before turning her attention towards Kahono.
"…..No….elle….." Kahono said slowly just as tears began to appear in her eyes.
"I can talk! Yeah!" Kahono exclaimed in a happy tone of voice before suddenly hugging Noelle.
"Don't go bursting your voice just right now, sis! You just got it healed!" Kaito exclaimed in a shock tone of voice.
However, Kahono ignored her brother as she released Noelle and starting to sing.
This caught everyone's attention as they stopped what they are doing and turn towards the red hair sea-dweller.
After a few minutes, Kahono stopped singing, causing everyone to start clapping.
"Hehehehe. This festival happens only once a year, doesn't it? Lets have a total blast." Kahono said with a wide smile on her face before an idea appeared in her head.
"Ohhh, listen! Noelle, Asta, Kaito. Lets have a double date!" Kahono said, causing shock expressions to appear on Noelle's, Asta's and Kaito's faces whilst Sophia became wide eyed.
"WHAAAAAAT?!" Both Noelle and Asta exclaimed in their heads.
"W-what are you thinking sis?" Kaito asked, staring at his sister.
"Come on! It will be fun." Kahono said, not effected by the shock expressions.
"A-A- double date?! That's far too bold! And why would Kahono bring it up in the first place?!" Noelle thought, shaking slightly.
"A double date? With who?" Asta thought, starting to become confuse.
"I see! She's trying to get me and the sea goddess together! That's my sister for you! Well, your brother's going to do his best!" Kaito thought, gaining a smile on his face.
"How did Kahono came up with this idea?" Sophia thought, becoming confuse like Asta.
"O-okay then. This a festival after all, so might as well enjoy ourselves." Noelle said, gaining a slight blush on her face as she began to move towards Asta.
"Great! Let get things starting then!" Kahono said before walking up to Asta and linking her arm with his.
"Come on, Asta. lets go play our hearts out." Kahono said as she started to yank Asta in a direction.
"O-okay." Asta responded in a startled tone of voice.
"Hehehe! Noelle, if you don't do something, I'm going to go and enjoy the festival with Asta. You have to fight if you want to win." Kahono thought with a smirk on her face as she glanced over her shoulder and saw Noelle with a shock expression on her face.
"Wha…?" Noelle attempted to say something, but couldn't.
"I guess that Noelle wanted to go with Asta." Sophia thought as she glance at the shock the Noelle whilst Kaito attempted to catch the silver hair girl's attention.
"I guess that this place is good as nothing I suppose." Tetsuo muttered as he settled in a quiet area of the festival.
"Mr Daishinji?! W-what are you d-doing here?!" A voice suddenly spoke, causing the wielder of Suzune to turn his and spotted Grey, in her real form, and Gordon.
"I'm just wanting some peace and quiet. The festival can get a bit loud at times." Tetsuo responded, making Grey nod her head, although it was hard to tell since she's hiding behind her hands.
It was then that Tetsuo noticing something.
"I'm surprise that you're in your real form. I thought that you would be transformed as someone else." Tetsuo commented as he examine Grey.
"We forced her to stay in her real form for the entire Star Festival. I've been giving the task of making sure she does." Gordon spoke in a quiet tone of voice, yet Tetsuo managed to hear him clearly.
"AAAA! How embarrassing! Please don't look at me!" Grey exclaimed before moaning in embarrassment.
"I guess that I'm the same with avoiding eye-contact with the others. But still, there goes my plan for peace and quiet." Tetsuo thought, sighing at the end.
"I'm sorry!" Grey exclaimed, mistaken the sigh for something that she has done.
"There, there." Gordon said as he pat Grey on the back.
"The food's here tastes amazing!" Fiona, who is out of her maid uniform, thought as she tried some of the food that are being sold at the stalls.
"Hmm. Maybe I could try to replicate them sometime." Fiona thought as she took another bite from the food that she is holding.
It was at that moment that the maid of the Sword Of Logos notice someone sitting at a table eating a plateful of food.
"Charmy? Is that you?" Fiona asked, causing the person to look up from her food, revealing herself to be the chef of the Black Bulls.
"Hey! Maid of the Sword Of Logos." Charmy greeted whilst having some food in her mouth.
"Having fun I see." Fiona commented as she approach Charmy who swallowed the food that she is eating.
"Yeah! Food tastes good." Charmy responded whilst giving a thumbs up.
"Heh. I'm sure they do…..?" Fiona said before realizing that there is someone sitting next to Charmy, who the maid of the Sword Of Logos didn't saw at first due to them hiding behind the pile of the food that Charmy is eating.
"Vanessa?! Are you okay?" Fiona asked, starting to become concerned at how the Black Bull thread Mage is laying on the table with a few bottles surrounding her.
"Huh? Oh, hi Fiona." Vanessa said in a slightly slurred tone of voice as she lifted her head up off the table.
"Enjoying yourself as well?" Fiona asked with a slight smile on her face.
"Yep! Totally enjoying myself." Vanessa responded before giggling slightly.
"Yeah. It looks like that the Black Bulls are all enjoying themselves." Fiona thought whilst sweat-dropping slightly.
"I lost Donna…" Rintaro thought as he glanced around.
The wielder of Nagare originally planned on following the wielder of Ikazuchi, just in case that she may cause a scene due to the current mood that she's in.
"Oh well. Might as well enjoy the festival…" Rintaro muttered as he looked at the stalls, attempting to see a stall that is selling sweets.
"Rintaro! You come to the festival as well." A voice commented, causing the wielder of Nagare to turn her head towards the source of the voice to see Sol approaching him.
"Yes. this is a good opportunity to relax even when what's going on." Rintaro responded, making Sol nod her head slightly.
"So...how have you been doing?" Sol asked whilst scratching her cheek
"I'm doing well, managing to keep on top of my training and doing my missions effectively." Rintaro responded, which cause Sol to sigh.
"That's not what I'm talking about." Sol muttered, causing Rintaro and Sora to blink their eyes.
"Then what do you mean?" Rintaro asked, becoming confuse.
"Never mind." Sol responded, making Rintaro more confuse.
"At least he acting different than the last time we saw each other." Sol thought, inwardly smiling.
"So where is Mrs Ogami? Vice-Captain Ogami went off to find her and Sora" Rintaro asked whilst glancing around.
"She's over there with your vice-captain and Sora." Sol responded whilst pointing in a direction.
Rintaro looked in the direction that Sol is pointing at and saw Ryo, Char who is wearing a dress and having her hair down, and Sora, also dressed smartly.
"So Asta and Noelle went in the same direction together?" Charlotte asked, a small smile appearing on her face.
"Yes, although I'm not sure if anything will happen between the two of them though, considering Noelle's tsundere side." Ryo said, crossing his arms slightly.
"Time will tell." Charlotte responded simply.
"You where a complete tsundere for a while." Ryo pointed out, causing a slightly a slight blush to appear on Charlotte's face.
"That's different…." Charlotte mumbled whilst brining her drink up.
"What's a Tsundere?" Sora asked, tilting his head to the side whilst becoming curious.
"A Tsundere...is someone who seems to be super serious on the outside, but is actually very kind on the inside." Ryo explained, choosing his words carefully whilst Charlotte gave him a look.
"Oh. Big Sis Noelle does acts like that." Sora said, nodding his head slightly.
"Whoa….She's a total knock-out." A voice commented.
"She's lovely." Another voice spoke.
"Is she the daughter of some famous family?" A third voice asked.
"Hey! Go and talk to her." A voice urged another.
"Like I could ever do that. Plus she's seemed to be with someone." The voice responded.
"Who is he though? A bodyguard? He's wearing a Magic Knight's robes." A voice asked.
"That's the Magic Knight robes belonging to the Sword Of Logos squad. I've heard rumors that the Sword Of Logos have been more active lately. Are they doing odd jobs over the kingdom." A voice questioned.
"What about the kid? Is he the Magic Knight's son or something?" Someone asked as they notice Sora.
"He must be. that lady must have a soft spot for the kid though." A second person commented as he observe Charlotte's interaction with her son.
"We can hear you all you know." Ryo commented whilst sweat-dropping whilst Charlotte snorted slightly and Sora blinked his eyes slightly.
"Ohhh! Yes, yes. Charming. That's settled then! You'll be my companion tonight." A voice spoke, causing Ryo to turn his head towards the direction of the voice to see a man of wealthy status staring at Charlotte.
Behind him are two guards.
"That's Baron Balmain of the House of Bamilton." A voice spoke in a nervous tone of voice.
"First, let's take in the festival together. Come now! Come with me." Baron Balmain said, causing Ryo to stiffen.
"….." Charlotte didn't say anything along with not even looking at Baron Balmain.
"Hmmm? Ignoring me, eh? You got some nerve! Who do you think I am?!" Baron Balmain said as he grab Charlotte's arm.
"Hey!" Ryo exclaimed whilst beginning to move.
However, there was no need as Charlotte's Grimoire glowed and she released a wave of briar, knocking Baron Balmain and his two guards away.
"That's my line. Who you think I am?" Charlotte questioned as she stood up whilst everyone became shock.
Ryo moved Sora back as he started to gain a frightened look on his face.
"Go with you? Did you intend to use me as some sort of ornament? And without my consent. What were you thinking?" Charlotte questioned Baron Balmain who is feeling pain from the thorns.
"Did you try to deal with me casually because I'm a woman? Is there a single point on which you are superior than me?" Charlotte questioned in a causal manner, not bothering to consider the pain that Baron Balmain going through.
"Your from the house of Balmilton? What of it? I belong to the house of Roselei. If you suggesting that your superior than me, then use your magic to do something about my briars?" Charlotte questioned as she tightened the briar.
"Char….I think he got the message….." Ryo said in a nervous tone of voice as he place a hand on Charlotte's shoulder.
"G-get your hand o-off her! Y-you're just a bodyguard!" Baron Balmain managed to say through the briar.
"This gentleman standing beside me is my husband and the boy is my son, so you should I have first checked my status before going with your plan." Charlotte said, causing everyone to become more shock.
"Go, Mama." Sora cheered, causing Ryo to chuckle slightly.
"What to do, what to do?" Rin questioned herself as she glanced around the stalls, attempting to think of something to do.
"Rin? Is that you?" A voice asked, causing the wielder of Hayate to turn around and saw Rill approaching her.
"Oh! Hi Rill." Rin said just as the captain of the Aqua Deers stopped in front of her.
"Enjoying the Star Festival?" Rill asked, causing Rin to shrug her shoulders slightly.
"Not sure, I can't decide on what to do." The wielder of Hayate responded, making Rill nod his head slightly.
"I can see why, there are so many stalls set up." The captain of the Aqua Deers commented, a smile appearing on his face.
"So what have you been up to?" Rin asked, becoming curious.
"Mainly doing my duties as a Magic Knight duties." Rill responded, drooping slightly, causing Rin to giggle.
"But I managed to work on my paintings, going into Wonder World for inspiration." Rill added quickly, making Rin's eyes widened.
"Really?!" Rin exclaimed, making Rill nod his head.
"Yeah. Its such a breathtaking place." Rill said in an excited tone of voice.
It was at that moment that the wielder of Hayate noticed that a few people are glancing towards her and the captain of the Aqua Deers.
"Hehehe. I guess that seeing a Magic Knight captain and a member of the most secretive Magic Knight squad together does cause some attention gaining." Rill commented in a sheepish tone of voice.
"True." Rin responded, not bothered by the stares.
"Its one of the main reasons why I'm having a hard time having some proper fun, everyone trying to get your attention." Rill said before sighing slightly.
"What about the other captains?" Rin asked, becoming curious.
"I'm not sure about most of the captains, but Yami and Jack seemed to be too caught up in their competitive streak to pay attention to anyone else. I actually saw them earlier at some stalls….." Rill explained, saying the last part in a sheepish tone of voice as he recall seeing the captains of the Black Bulls and the Green Mantises in some self-made competition.
This caused a look of interest to appear on Rin's face.
With Donna, the wielder of Ikazuchi is walking about the streets, completely absorbed in her thoughts whilst ignoring the Star Festival altogether.
"Just what happened 10 years ago just before the battle?" Donna thought with a brooding expression on her face.
Every since discovering that the current wielder of Kurayami isn't her father, Donna has been in a cycle of conflict about the newly gained discovery….which lead to releasing her rage most of the time.
Whilst a part of her is happy that her father didn't betrayed the Sword Of Logos, another part of her is having some doubt.
"The last few things that I can remember about Father's behavior before the battle was being grim-looking. I didn't thought too much of it at the time because that's how father behaves when receiving a vision from Kurayami. But that time…..he looked more focused about something. And then there's Luna…." Donna thought, a frown appearing on her face.
The wielder of Ikazuchi faintly recall her and Luna having an argument with Asta about something which caused the ash-white hair boy to storm off somewhere and Luna decided to chase after her.
Donna recalled that she also chased after the two but got lost and then chaos descended as the battle started abruptly.
Donna remembered how her younger self doubled her efforts in order to find Asta and Luna, but her search was interrupted when she was discovered by a man called Kyoichiro Shinshen, who was actually the current Espada at the time, and got her to safety, despite her protests.
When the battle ended, Donna discovered that many members of the Sword Of Logos have perished during the battle, including Kyoichiro Shinshen, but what shock her the most was the disappearance of Asta and Luna, along with Rekka.
Donna's world seemed to crumble even further when it was announced that her father betrayed the Magic Knight squad.
Luckily, she was far away from receiving any hate from the surviving members.
But even still, the following years caused Donna to become more focus, determined on finding her two missing childhood friends and discovering the truth as to why her father betrayed the Sword Of Logos.
However, everything that she been working towards seemed to disappear when she discovered that the current wielder of Kurayami is in fact Daichi Kamijo, a fellow Sword Of Logos Magic Knight along with being a close friend of his father.
"Just…..what is going on?" Donna questioned as she released a heavy sigh.
It was at that moment that crying can be heard, causing the wielder of Ikazuchi to look in the direction of the crying to see a little girl.
"….She must have been separated from her parents." Donna thought before starting to hear the comments from others close by.
Donna started to become angry when she realize that the comments are negative, coming from the nobles who saw the girl has a commoner who is ruining their evening.
"….." Donna became silent for a few seconds before suddenly slapped her cheeks, "waking" herself up.
"What have I been doing? This is supposedly to a time to celebrate." Donna thought, gaining a more positive aura around her as she approach the little girl.
"Hey." Donna said in a soft tone of voice as she knelt down next to the little girl, making her startled.
"Did you got lost from your parents?" Donna asked, causing the little girl to nod her head.
"Y-yes. I can't find Mama anywhere." The little girl explained, causing a frown to appear on Donna's face.
"I should probably cheer her up first before trying to locate her mother." Donna thought as she glanced around, seeing the disapproving expressions on the noble's faces.
"But what though?" The wielder of Ikazuchi thought, becoming stump.
It was at that that moment that something in Donna's pocket started to glow, causing her to become confuse before taking out the "Lamp Do Alangina" Wonder-Ride book.
However, the wielder of Ikazuchi saw the title has changed to "Happy Lamp Do Alangina" and the lamp is now wearing a Santa hat.
"What's going on?" Donna thought before deciding to open the new titled Wonder-Ride book.
"There was a lamp in a land of happiness with a power of a joy that has been celebrated since ancient times…."
"Happy Lamp Do Alangina" announced before the golden mechanical genie burst out of the Wonder-Ride book.
Like the changed Wonder-Ride book, the golden mechanical genie is wearing a Santa hat.
"….What?" Donna questioned in complete confusion as Lamp Do Alangina started to dance.
"Hey Asta. What's happening with your little book?" Kahono asked, becoming curious as Asta held "Brave Dragon" which has started to glow before the front cover started to change, the title now reading "Happy Brave Dragon" and Brave Dragon itself wearing a Santa hat.
"I….don't know…." Asta responded slowly before opening the red-boarded Wonder-Ride book.
"There was once a God Beast that would reach an event so great that it would bring joy to everything…."
The new titled Wonder-Ride announced, making Asta more confused.
"Its happening with Asta as well." Noelle thought as she glance towards Asta, the silver hair girl holding her own newly tilted Wonder-Ride book, "Happy Swift Dolphin", before opening hers.
"This aquatic creature uses it's sonar abilities to dance through the wide ocean, seeking festivals all across the world…"
"Happy Swift Dolphin" announced before starting to glow, along with "Brave Dragon".
"W-what is going on?!" Grey exclaimed as she and Gordon witness Tetsuo holding "Happy Haneselnuts To Gretel".
"What is going on? This never happened to the Wonder-Ride books before…" Tetsuo thought before deciding to open the cover.
"A story about a happy meal for two young siblings who ate their way through a house…."
The Wonder-Ride book announced before starting to glow, causing Gordon to become confuse whilst Grey started to become more scared.
"Heh?! What's happening to your book?!" Sol exclaimed in a startled tone of voice as she stared at Rintaro who is looking at his personal Wonder-Ride book which holds the title of "Happy Lion Senki".
"I have absolutely not idea." Rintaro responded before opening the cover.
"This blessed mane marks a new moment of happiness…."
The blue-boarded Wonder-Ride book announced before glowing.
"Ryo? What's happening with your Wonder-Ride book?" Charlotte, still holding Baron Balmain in her briar, asked as she glance down at "Happy Genbu Shinwa".
"I don't know. I never seen this before…." Ryo muttered confusedly before opening the cover.
"There once was a happy God Beast wearing a single four-leaf clover…."
"Happy Genbu Shinwa" announced before starting to blow brighter.
"Eh?" Rin said in a confused tone of voice as she stared down at "Happy Sarutobi Ninjaden".
"I'm guessing that you haven't seen this before." Rill commented, seeing the confuse expression on Rin's face just as she opened the cover.
"Happily hiding in the shadows! Now come out to celebrate everywhere…."
The green-bordered Wonder-Ride book announced before starting to glow brighter.
From all the glowing Wonder-Ride books, the beings resting within them burst out.
"EHHHHHH!" Asta and Noelle exclaimed in a shock tone of voice as they witness Brave Dragon and Swift Dolphin flying/swimming into the air.
The citizens started to become frightened at the sight.
"I think….there're dancing…." Kaito commented as he watch the mechanical being's movements.
"R-really?!" Noelle questioned, staring at the dance magic user.
"It looks like it." Kaito responded with a small smile on his face.
"Yes! The sea goddess is looking at me!" Kaito cheered in his head.
In another part of the Royal Capital, Donna, and everyone else, stared up at Lamp Do Alangina.
"What is going on? The citizens are becoming frightened." Donna thought as she glance around before looking back at the gold mechanical genie before realizing something.
"Is it….dancing?" Donna thought as she observe Lamp Do Alangina's movements.
"Hehehehehe." The little girl giggled, no longer crying.
"So it wanted to make the little girl happy." Donna thought with a smile on her face.
"Eh….Do Wonder-Ride books do that at times?" Ryha questioned as he observe Daichi's "Happy Jaaku Dragon" Wonder-Ride book.
"No…." Daichi responded confusedly before deciding to open the cover.
"It was the one God Beast which laughed in the darkness that once enveloped happiness…."
The newly titled Wonder-Ride book announced before Jaaku Dragon burst out and started to…..dance in the air.
Luckily, there was enough room in the cave for the purple mechanical dragon to move about.
Whilst Ryha became more confuse, a small idea appeared within Daichi's head.
"Is this happening because of the Star Festival?" Daichi thought, his mind going through the memories of the festival.
"Hey, Mars. What's going on with that Wonder-Ride book?" A Diamond Kingdom Mage Warrior asked as he saw that "World Jormungandr" has changed.
"I...don't know." Mars admitted in confusion before opening the cover of "Happy World Jormungandr".
"The releasing of the tail would causes the greatest festival to begin…"
"Happy World Jormungandr" announced before the serpent-like creature burst out of the Wonder-Ride book and started to dance within the air, causing the many Mage Warriors to become shock.
"….Why do I have the feeling that Fana may like this?" Mars thought, becoming confuse.
And there we go, the beginning of the Star Festival which gave Donna the chance to come back to her senses. We got to see Donna's perspective of the past. So the name of the previous Espada has been revealed, Kyoichiro Shinshen. So due to the Star Festival, the Rider's main Wonder-Ride book changed, transforming into their festival forms. Mars also made a brief apperance at the end of the chapter.
So in Revice, the Kamen Rider Demon's troopers have made their apperance, the mass produced Demons Driver being wielded by members of Weekend whilst Vail started to feel overwhelmed by Revice's Ultimate form, causing him to stamp more Vistamps onto himself. Giff has started to become angry towards Hideo and Daiji with their failed attempt of stopping the resistance. At the end of the episode, Masumi equipped himself with a Weekend Driver and holding the "Triceratops" Vistamps. Hopefully, Masumi will successfully transform unlike Tamaki's failed attempt when Vail's stole the "Buffalo" Vistamp.
With the Revice movie, a new trailer has been revealed, which shows a proper look at Daimon's Rider form. Kagero/Evil will make his return and Lovekov gains a humanoid form...although a prefer her chibi form. With the blue-armored Kamen Rider, whose name is Kamen Rider Destream, it is revealed that it will be appearing in the main series with Genta being the the Rider, wielding a modified version of the Vail Driver. Information about Destream's abilities have been show, them being Genomix's. The Vistamps he will be using the "Hercules" Vistamp, for transformation, the "Crocodile" Vistamp, based on Kamen Rider Wizard, "Komodo Dragon" Vistamp, based on Kamen Rider Ryuki, and borrowing the "Kong" Vistamp from Revice.
So the trademark for Kamen Rider Geats has been revealed, but I can't make out any insight of what the possible themes of the new Rider could be with the "A" being stylized differently than the other letters being black with parts fading.
Please review and next time.
Drcaus: It would be interesting to see the reactions of the canon characters seeing their story counterparts.
TheOkWriter: Thanks for the offer.
Dragon Rider 66:
1) Calibur's Jaou Dragon form will certainly shock everyone, mainly because of the Demonic Mana that the form is producing. With the Star Festival, I don't think anyone was expecting to see giant mechanical beings putting on a show.
2) You will find about Mereoleone's connection to Richita pretty soon and with Nozel...you can probably figure it out at the same time.
3) Genta will be transforming into the new Rider Destream within the main series, but the movie, it may be someone else, I have a small idea, but I'm not if it's possible or not...
4) Whoops! Oh well, at least Rintaro has decided to follow her...although he did lost sight of her.
5) Yeah, Its strange with how Hideo acting brutal towards the enemy whilst acting in a father-like manner towards Daiji...even though they are technically related to each other with both of them carrying the genes of Giff.
6) Indeed. Asta will certainly be covering his ears when Richita's experimental partner start to go into more mature topics. The Silva siblings would certainly be shock at the prospect of their mother possibly being bi.
7) That's something that would happen, Tetsuo added some safety features for Noelle's broom.
8) Seeing Yukimi's personality, she will likely be gentle when having the discussion with Daiji about his behavior.
9) I understand...I have a feeling that it will likely be Rin who will mention Dominate's name.
10) Asta having half-siblings? It would an interesting part of the story if Asta wasn't aware that he had any blood-siblings at the start. It could goes with when Richita was forced to separate from her children, with the older siblings thinking that she has died, the Black Clover version of Hideo, who got to them first before Masumi could meet them, made the decision of just leaving Asta at the orphanage whilst the half-siblings will be in the care of the Black Clover version of Fenix, because the half-siblings's demonic powers, that originated from Giff, will attract Devils towards them, endangering people whilst Asta's demonic powers will be weak and immature. The half-sibling that will become Evil/Live won't like this decision which lead to this grudge transferring to their inner-Demon. This will likely lead to Evil being an anti-hero whose main goal will be reuniting with Asta. I think that this half-sibling will be female, a reflection with how Nozel is the older brother to Noelle, his little sister. With the half-sister, she will have a caring personality, but she and her inner-Demon will have a bro-con complex towards Asta, leading them to be competitive towards each other in order to prove who is the better sister. Demons being a member of the Black Bulls will make sense.
I did mention in a previous comment about Noelle being a likely candidate for being Jeanne. As to how she will be able manifest a inner-Demon, it could be that when Megicula cursed Acier, some of the Demonic Mana could have transferred and infused within Noelle and over time the Demonic Mana gained a consciousness. When Noelle gained the "Cobra" Vistamp and transform into Jeanne, the Demonic Mana will transform into Lovekov, basically making her the daughter of Megicula. Noelle having Demonic Mana within her will attract the attention of Weekend who will be concerned about her wellbeing and so one of the members will pose as Noelle's magic instructor whilst observing the Demonic Mana. The same could happen with Nozel, leading to the birth of the Eagle Deadman, but his body will likely be able to resist the Demonic Mana whilst the newly born Noelle will have no resistance what so ever.
evildragonlord101: You'll find out a bit more about Mereoleone and Richita a few chapters later.
Brave Kid: Thank you.
mastergamer14: Asta and Yuno becoming Kamen Rider W...everyone be shock when they see "him" wielding anti-magic and wind magic at the same. When everyone see the two becoming W, they will likely be reminded with how William and Patry lived in the same body.
Farhan Nugraha:
1) Well, Donna seemed to have cheered up thanks to the beings within the Wonder-Ride books.
2) I'm not sure about names, but her resurrecction will likely be linked to the sea whilst her Zanpakuto will link to her Valkyrie armor.
3) I haven't thought of new spells just yet.
4) On the other hand, it could be that Astaroth would help Noelle in resetting the timeline, but only if she reclaim his heart from Lucius's clutches.
5) At some point in the future, maybe.
Itpowertime:
1) Yep, Donna certainly has conflicted feelings on the matter that is someone else wielding Kurayami rather than her father.
2) Calibur's "Jaou Dragon" form won't appear just yet.
