Battle between the two spatial Mages.
"O-okay, Finral. You can do this. You're fighting your brother after all." Finral thought as he attempt to keep himself calm.
"Feeling nervous?" Leopold asked, giving the Black Bull spatial Mage a questioning look.
"Nope! I'm completely fine!" Finral responded….in a high-pitch tone of voice.
"Your heartbeat say otherwise." Tetsuo commented, causing Finral to flinch.
"Darn you, Mr Daishinji!" Finral shouted in his head before taking a deep breath and releasing it.
"Maybe I am a bit nervous…." Finral responded, but is met with a raised eyebrow from Tetsuo, causing the Black Bull spatial Mage to growl slightly.
"Is there a lot of tension between you and the vice-captain of the Golden Dawn?" Leopold asked, becoming curious.
"…..I guess that you can say something like that….." Finral responded before becoming silent again.
Leopold glanced towards Tetsuo who shrug his shoulders in response.
"...Even though I'm the older brother, my parents, my father and step-mother, shows more interest towards Langris, them seeing how he's better than me with studying and athletics. I even get scolded for my choice in the usage of spatial magic, using it just for transport rather in the same manner as Langris." Finral explained, causing Leopold to become wide eyed.
"Seriously?! We got an easy win in the last match with how you used spatial magic." Leopold said in a slight shock tone of voice.
"That's just how the upper-class works. When the see something that isn't of their standards, they imminently reject it. Your side of the Vermillion family are more interested in strength rather than normal upper-class behavior." Tetsuo explained, causing Leopold to grumble slightly.
"At least I was able to join the Magic knights….even though I mainly used my magic to aid Captain Yami." Finral said, saying the last part with a nervous expression on his face.
"You can possibly learn something from Captain Sophia, she wields the same type of magic remember." Tetsuo responded, making Finral nod his head slightly.
It was then that the wielder of Suzume perked up slightly.
"The other team is coming?" Leopold asked, although he knows what the answer would be.
"Yes. Time to get ready." Tetsuo responded as he got Suzume and "Hundred-Eyed Peacock" at the ready whilst Leopold started to grin.
"There you are!" A voice suddenly shouted, causing the three to glance up to see Sekke and Langris appearing from around a corner.
"Here they come! That dangerous spatial magic is all yours, Finral! You handle it like we planned!" Leopold exclaimed, remembering, how Langris destroyed the other team's crystal during his last match.
"Are they seriously using the same plan of attack as the previous match?" Tetsuo thought as he observe how Langris and Sekke are riding on the Green Mantis Magic Knight's strange mode of transport.
"I'll end this with one attack." Langris commented as he raised a hand with a smirk on his face.
The vice-captain of the Golden Dawn swing his arm and expected his attack to destroy the crystal.
However, Finral activated his magic, causing both his and Langris's magic to disappear.
"What?!" Langris said, although he doesn't have a surprised expression on his face.
"I tested this with Cob a minute ago to make sure. When spatial magic clashes, the Mana currents collide with each other and cancel each other out!" Finral explained before turning his attention towards his teammates.
"You two go and find their crystal." The Black Bull spatial Mage said, before opening a portal.
"Right! Good luck!" Leopold said as he and Tetsuo entered the portal, exiting some distance away with the wielder of Suzume having transformed into Slash.
"So. We are we heading?" Lepold asked as he glanced towards Slash.
The swordsman of sounds closed his eyes and concentrated.
After a few seconds, Slash turned towards a direction.
"The crystal's that way." Slash responded before starting to move with Leopold following him….although being careful of not standing on the swordsman of sound's peacock feathers.
It took the two Magic Knights a few minutes to arrive at a tower-like structure.
"So your friend is guarding the crystal?" Leopold asked, glancing towards Slash.
"Yes. I can hear Donna in there….along with something else." Slash responded, causing Leopold to raise an eyebrow.
"Are you referring to those beings that you guys can summon?" Leopold asked, making Slash nod his head.
"Well then. Let's gets destroy their crystal!" Leopold said with a grin on his whilst lighting his fists on fire, making Slash sigh.
From within the tower, Donna has a bored expression on her face.
"Seriously. Why I'm I guarding the crystal?" Donna thought as she sat in front of the crystal.
Standing beside her is Tri-Cerberus.
"That git of a vice-captain said that I'm not needed and just "sit" this one out." Donna thought in an annoyed tone of voice.
Tri-Cerberus glanced at it's companion with a worrying expressions on it's three faces.
However, it was at that moment that Tri-Cerberus perked up and started to growl towards the entrance of the tower.
This caused Donna to start grinning.
"Heh. It looks like that I'm taking part after all." Donna thought as she took out her Seiken Sword-Driver and "Needle Hedgehog" Wonder-Ride book.
The wielder of Ikazuchi placed her Seiken Sword-Driver on her waist before placing "Needle Hedgehog" into the center slot, causing the standby sound to start playing for a few seconds before Donna unsheathe the sword of lighting in a quick manner.
Unsheathe the lighting!
The Seiken Sword-Driver announced before the needles, that came bursting out of the larger version of "Needle Hedgehog", merged onto Donna.
Ikazuchi: Volume 1
When prickly needle and Ikazuchi, the sword of lighting, unite, the lighting sword burst and shines!
The Seiken Sword-Driver announced again with Espada's center piece of her armor clad in gold whilst the rest of her armor is mostly white.
Tri-Cerberus gave the swords-woman of lighting an annoyed look(s) whilst growling slightly.
"Sorry, sorry. But I used your Wonder-Ride book during the first match, right." Espada pointed out, knowing what the gold mechanical Cerberus is annoyed about.
However, this doesn't improve Tri-Cerberus's mood, making Espada sigh.
It was at that moment the door to the tower burst into flames before getting knocked down by Leopold.
"Now! Get ready, sword-woman of-Whoaaa!" Leopold exclaimed as he came face-to-face with all three heads of Tri-Cerberus, fangs showing.
"Hehehehe. Didn't expect to run into Tri-Cerberus, right?" Espada asked with a smirk underneath her helmet.
"Of course not! Slash didn't even say what your summoned being would be!" Leopold responded before glancing over his shoulder slightly.
However, Tri-Cerberus took the opportunity to lunge towards the Crimson Lion Magic Knight.
Luckily, Leopold quickly turned his attention back onto the gold mechanical Cerberus and somehow managed to avoid getting crushed by jumping backwards.
"If I have to fight a three-headed dog to destroy the crystal, then so be it!" Leopold shouted, his fists getting coated in flames.
However, this made Tri-Cerberus more aggressive before lunging towards Leopold again.
This cause the Crimson Lion Magic Knight to move further back, effectively moving into the opening.
"Now then, Tri-Cerberus. Let's poke this lion full of holes." Espada suggested, causing the gold mechanical Cerberus to nod all three of it's heads.
As the two exited the tower, the swords-woman of lighting was immediately attacked by Slash.
"Gah!" The swords-woman of exclaimed as she got struck by Suzume, in its sword form.
This altered Tri-Cerberus who glanced towards Espada's direction before returning it's attention back onto Leopold.
"I didn't realize that you be so sneaky." Espada commented as she slowly recovered from the attack.
"I'm the swordsman of sound, and I use my hearing whatever I feel is needed to win." Slash responded as he got into a fighting stance.
"Guess that makes sense." Espada muttered before suddenly lunging towards, Ikazuchi at the ready.
Unfortunately, Slash avoided the attack by jumping over Espada.
However, the swords-woman of lighting quickly spun around, Ikazuchi at the ready.
However, Slash immediately opened the tail of his peacock feathers, letting them block Espada's attack.
"Tch." Espada muttered in annoyance before jumping back to avoid any close retaliation from Slash.
"Needle Hedgehog"
The Wonder-Ride book announced when the swords-woman of lighting pressed down on the open page.
"Hm?" Slash said as multiple needles appeared in the air.
"Go!" Espada shouted, causing the needles to start firing themselves straight towards Slash.
The swordsman of sound jumped back to avoid getting hit, along with batting a few away with Suzume, just as his Grimoire open.
"Music Magic: Sonic Echo." Slash announced, creating a sound wave which spreads out before starting to bounce off the needles….although becoming weaker each time that it collides with a needle.
"Lighting Creation Magic: Lighting Genie's Thief Boots." Espada announced, cladding her legs in lighting before dashing towards Slash.
"Whoa!" The swordsman of sound exclaimed just as the swords-woman of lighting suddenly appeared in front of him and swing Ikazuchi.
"Music Magic: Sonic Blast!" Slash announced quickly, creating a sound wave, hitting Espada at point-blank range.
"Ghe!" Espada grunted as she flew backwards a few meters away.
"Lighting Creating Magic: Lighting Genie's Gems." Espada announced, creating golden gems which then shot forwards towards Slash.
"I need to be more quicker with these…." Slash thought as he stared to defend himself against the attack, using the aid of his high hearing when the gems attempted to hit behind him.
"Lighting Creation Magic: Lamp Buster." Espada announced, creating her long-ranged weapon and started to fire lighting bolts at Slash.
"Really? You want a shoot down?" Slash questioned before transforming Suzume into it's gun form and starting to attack Espada.
"Huh. Things look heated up over there." Leopold thought as he glanced towards Slash's and Espada's fight.
It was at that moment that the Crimson Lion Magic Knight heard growling, causing him to duck his head just in time to avoid getting his head bitten off.
"The same can be said for this battle as well!" Leopold shouted before punching Tri-Cerberus with a fire-coated fist.
However, the gold mechanical Cerberus avoided the punch by jumping backwards.
"Okay. Lets try this then. Fire Magic: Spiraling Twin Flames!" Leopold shouted before unleashing his attack.
This time, Tri-Cerberus got hit by the attack.
"Yes!" The Crimson Lion Magic Knight exclaimed in triumph.
However, Tri-Cerberus growled before starting to become covered in lighting.
"It can do that?!" Leopold thought in a shock tone of voice just as the gold mechanical Cerberus lunged towards him.
By some miracle, Leopold managed to avoid getting bitten by the three pair of fangs by hurling fire at Tri-Cerberus, causing it to misjudge it's attack.
"Fire Magic: Crushing Fangs!" Leopold shouted as a lion's head appeared in front of Tri-Cerberus.
The Crimson Lion Magic Knight then brought his hands together in a closing manner, causing the fangs to do the same, closing on the gold mechanical Cerberus, causing it to yelp in pain.
"Hah! That surely has done some damage." Leopold thought, a smile appearing on his face.
The Crimson Lion Magic Knight observe Tri-Cerberus's as it swayed side-to-side.
"I better attack again before it can fully recover." Leopold thought as he ignited a fist in flames before lunging towards the gold mechanical Cerberus.
With Finral, the Black Bull spatial Mage has been keeping track of his brother's hand movements and then using his magic to cancel Langris's spatial magic.
"I never dreamed that you'd become my natural enemy, Finral. Are you planning to keep defending the crystal until our crystal breaks? Do you really think that'll works?" Langris asked as he continued to throw attacks at Finral's team's crystal.
"It might not. So….I'm going to use a new spell!" Finral responded as the pages of his Grimoire started to turn.
A green orb of light appearing before moving forwards.
"Har! What's that plain slow spell? I'm on a roll now! You think that something like that could hit me?!" Sekke asked before moving to the side.
However, the green orb suddenly changed direction, following them.
"Homing?!" Langris thought before deciding to jump off Sekke's transport.
"Oho! It's follows you, huh? Not bad! But there's no way that puny thing will work against my iron-clad spell, Sekke Magnum cannon ba-" Sekke began to say as he surround himself in a sphere, that has a few spikes surrounding it, but when the green orb hit the sphere, it and Sekke suddenly disappeared.
Langris gained a shock expression on his face as he stared at the space where Sekke was.
"Even though I think it's pitiful. I did so much special magic that it changed my hairstyle….but I still couldn't master an attack spell so…"Spatial Magic: Falling Angel's wingbeat". It forcibly transport anyone it touches to another location. I don't want to hurt you! I'll use this spell to take you off the field." Finral explained and something "snap" inside Langris.
"Heh...hehehehehe. Who's worrying about who here?! You constantly get on my nerves, Finral! Who'd have thought that our special reverse spells would be similar?! How dare you use my Grimoire Magic!" Langris said as his Grimore opened and multiple dark purple orbs appeared.
"There isn't one single thing you can beat me at, Finral!" Langris said, showing his face, one that is full of rage.
"Langris!" Finral said, starting to become tense. "It's over, Finral." Langris said as he prepared to attack.
"That's right! Langris's magic power is enormous! But this is...this nauseating magic is…." Finral thought, remembering the time where the Black Bulls and the Sword Of Logos fought Vertto.
"What are you….?!" Finral questioned as he stared at Langris.
"No. he's Langris. My little brother!" Finral said just the pages of his Grimoire started to turn.
"You probably don't like it, but we're alike, aren't we?! We may have different mothers, but even so….we are brothers!" Finral exclaimed as he summoned multiple green orbs.
"If nothing changes...It feels like Langris won't be Langris for much longer!" Finral thought, starting to become tense.
"I never was able to act like a real big brother to you, but/You threw it away and left. You're a coward who can't even hurt people. Don't act like you're anybody's big brother! Langris shouted, cutting off Finral as he fire the dark purple towards Finral.
"I'll stop you!" Finral shouted before firing his own spell.
The two spells clash, causing bright lights to appear and making everyone wide eyed. After a few seconds, the bright lights died down, revealing that the crystal is full of holes and crumbling.
However, that wasn't the only that happened…...Finral on the ground, full of holes himself.
"How's that?! There is nothing you can beat me at!" Langris exclaimed, his face still full of rage.
The vice-captain of the Golden Dawn raised an arm.
"Vanish!" Langris shouted before beginning to bring his raised arm down.
However, it was at that moment that something was pointing towards Langris's head and something pressing against his neck.
"The battle's over. You can stop now." Slash said in a warning tone of voice as he kept the arm holding Suzume straight.
"Don't tell me what to do! And you! What are you doing, helping the enemy?!" Langris demanded, glaring at Espada.
"Enemy? What sort phrasing is that?" Espasa asked just as Ikazuchi began to glow.
"That's enough." A voice spoke in a commanding tone of voice, causing them to freeze.
The three Magic Knights turn their heads to see Julius and Owen.
"I'm just simply removing this coward, a disgrace to house Vaulde." Langris said in an aggressive manner, causing a small frown to appear on Julius's face.
"Even though people receiving injuries is expected, killing your opponent is a completely different matter." Julius explained as he held a light blue orb in one of his hands, Roman numerals surrounding it.
Slash and Espada backed away from Langris, knowing that Julius can handle the situation.
This caused Langris to growl slightly as Owen rushed to Finrals side and started to use his magic on him.
"You ought to remember your position. This is an exam to select Magic Knights to be a part of the Royal Knights, tasked with defeating the Eye Of The Midnight Sun and their allies, it doesn't look good if the vice-captain of the Golden Dawn killed a fellow Magic Knight simply because of personal reasons. You're going to lose the trust from the other members of your squad and make enemies from the Magic Knight squads." Julius explained, him feeling the angry auras that is emanating from a few of the Magic Knights at the viewing platform.
"….." Reika become silent, gaining a small frown on her face.
And there we go, the battle between two brothers with Finral almost getting killed, as well as Espada just using her "Needle Hedgehog" Wonder Ride book. This time, it is Slash and Espada who intervened rather than the Black Bulls. Reika seems to be taking note on Langris's sudden shift in personality.
In Black Clover, Nacht informed the rest of the Black Bulls about Asta's possible death and organized everyone to start searching for Asta. With Asta himself, he wakes up in a room before getting served tea by something called a "tea serving doll", which looks eerily similar to Charmy. He is greeted by someone...who looks very much like Yami but wearing an eye-patch over his eye! Asta then noted how his wound is all healed, noting how Mimosa is the only person capable of healing a wound so severe. When asked where Liebe is Yami's look-a-like said that a friend of his is looking after him, along with most likely serving tea, before introducing himself as Yami's childhood. Asta then realized that he needs to get back to the Clover Kingdom, but is warned by Yami's look-a-like that if he goes back right now, Asta will die. Yami's look-a-like then told Asta that he's currently in Hino, the land of the rising sun, before introducing himself as Ryuudon Ryuuga, the shogun of the nation. Ryuudon then says that Hino will be the place where Asta will gain a new power-up. The girl that is by Ryuudon's side doesn't seem to be happy for some reason, probably because of Asta's and Liebe's presence.
Even though Ryuudon introduced himself as Yami's childhood friend, I'm having doubts about this claim since the both of them look very similar to each other. Since Ryuudon has a different surname, it could that he and Yami are closely related and played a lot during their childhood and like what I written last time, Ryuudon possess the ability of foresight, along with seeing the past, through his eye-patched eye(?). I've noticed that Ryuuga said "power" instead of "magic" when saying that he wasn't the one who healed Asta, so it could be that the citizens of Hino possess something similar to magic but different, alongside Ki, or it could be that Ryuudon doesn't know how to properly say "magic" in the language that Asta speaks in. With Ryuudon's name, both first and second names have "dragon" in them which can link to how eastern counties see dragons as guardians and keepers of wisdom. This is connected to how Ryuudon is the Shogun of Hino.
So in Kamen Rider Geats, it is shown that Ace's desire is to become a well known celebrity who is adored by everyone. However, this seems to a ploy on his part to fully see the limitations that the prize of the GDP possess. Meanwhile, Kiewa don his newly given Desire Driver and placed the ID Core into the slot, causing him to enter the Desire Temple along with many others where they are greeted by Tsumuri who then explains the Desire Grand Prix before telling the participants to write their desire on a card. The participants are then get sent to the area where the Jamato have appeared with Tsumuri telling them that the first mission is a treasure hunt, collecting Raise Buckles from the Jamato. One of the first people to collect a Raise Buckle is Ace getting the "Water" Raise Buckle before transforming into Geats and started to fight some Jamato grunts, mainly using the water gun as a close-ranged weapon rather than shooting water. With Kiewa, he was chased by some Jamato grunts before getting helped from Takahito, with both of them getting the "Boost" Raise Buckle and "Arrow" Raise Buckle. The two of them, having recognized each other from the interview, talked about why they are participating in the GDP, with Takahito telling Kiewa about his hospitalized son. They are then found by Girori who then invited them to the Desire Hall where they meet the other successful participants, before getting sent onto their next mission.
The seven remaining participants, Geats, Buffa, Tycoon, Nago, Merry, Dapan and Ginpen, started to fight the Jamato with the Raise Buckles that the gained, apart from Tycoon who seemed hesitant on fighting and questioning with how the others are dealing with the situation despite the fact that you'll die when you get defeated. With Ginpen, he fought the leader of the Jamato group, but was easily defeated, thus getting killed with Kiewa by his side. Geats appeared and motivate Kiewa before fighting the boss himself. Kiewa was about to join in the fight, but decided to give the "Boost" Raise Buckle to Geats who easily defeated the boss. However, it was revealed that Geats was lying to Kiewa in order to get the "Boost" Raise Buckle. Whilst Kiewa attempted to retrieve the "Boost" Raise Buckle, it suddenly flew off Geats's Desire Driver with him explaining that it is a one-use item. The episodes ends with Ace, having left the hospital after donating a large sum on money for Takahito's son, being watched by someone who questioned his endgame.
I'm kind of questioning Geats's position as the primary Rider for the current series since Kiewa/Tycoon seems more fitting for that role. Names of Riders that have participated, but got eliminated, are Kamen Rider Afint, Kamen Rider Razebu, Kamen Rider Barl, Kamen Rider Baboon, Kamen Rider Horan, Kamen Rider Bistay, Kamen Rider Fenzan, Kamen Rider Go-jun, Kamen Rider Crorokle, Kamen Rider Hakatyo, Kamen Rider Yamannma, Kamen Rider Lizza, Kamen Rider Parka, Kamen Rider Otaitai, Kamen Rider Garzel, Kamen Rider Dauphin, Kamen Rider Nagar, Kamen Rider Warika and Kamen Rider Shibakimura. So the second rule of the GDP is that those who survive will be able to make their ideal world come true. However, there are exceptions to everything.
With Kamen Rider Revice, images have been shown showing new forms that Demons and Live/Evil will gain in the upcoming V-Cinima. Demons's new form is called Giant Spider and it looks interesting, him gaining a new chest-plate, cape and added piece for his helmet. His name has also been changed to Imperial Demons. With Live's/Evil's final form, called Mega Bat...I like the new armor pieces, but the color? Live and Evil use the Revice Driver to transform into their extra-final forms, meaning that the coloring could be influenced by the Driver, but even still, its not the right color for them. Their names have been changed to Live Marvelous and Evil Marvelous.
Please review and until next time.
Dragon Rider 66:
1) I can see a lot of Magic Knights complaining about how "Xerx" should have removed his traps after the match.
2) I think it would be bad if Asta wields "Knight of Sun". If you look at worseman's review, then you would understand.
3) Yep, Asta and Liebe are in Hino, Yeah! Asta possible being "somewhen"? If Lucius did combined his time magic with Sister Lilly's newly gained spatial magic, then he could have teleported Asta to any point in history.
3) The first episode of Geats was a bit strange since Ace acted more of a senior side character rather than being the primary Rider for the current series. On Kamen Rider Wiki, it was written that Ace's level of confidence was influenced by real life events, not sure how though? Lets just hope that he undergoes some sort of character development at some point.
4) Rin and Donna helping Asta in taking one of Noelle's Wonder-Ride books...that could happen.
5) Yes, everyone will be panicking at Master Logos's disappearance whilst Reika will be chasing Master Logos and attempting to drag him back to perform his duties...being watched by the others.
6) It could be that time flows differently, giving Asta and Liebe enough time to gain new skills. Just imagine the shock expressions on everyone's face when they see Asta and Liebe coming back to life.
7) Since Revice is an anniversary Rider(s), it will be likely that the other Legend Rider Raise Buckles will be appearing in the Revice X Geats crossover movie.
8) Ryoga will be sighing deeply at his sister's lecture.
9) Ikki making a new contract with Vice, him thinking that it is the first time, does seem like the most likely option.
10) I guess that Tycoon will be overwhelmed by Kenzan's personality at first, but may get use to it. With his second personal Raise Buckle, it could be a paraglider-themed Raise Buckle or at least one that is based on mobility like the "Boost" Raise Buckle, which he did gained in the second episode but gave it to Geats when he tricked him.
11) That is a most likely scenario, Swift Dolphin will be trying to stop Brave Dragon's plan, wanting Asta to be with Noelle, whilst Lion Senki attempts to stop the fighting between Swift Dolphin and Brave Dragon. Sarutobi Ninjaden will be encouraging Brave Dragon whilst Lamp Do Alangina attempts to calm the green ninja down.
12) Yes, it does seem to be similar to the Legend Rider Lockseeds
13) That's all Asta needs, having some random girl flirting with him.
14) Vice will be wondering on who the shadowy creature is who is following Noelle around the banquet. So the tormenting will be toned to simple teasing, my bad. With Mereoleona...best of luck for Revice in terms of survival. When the Silva siblings, plus Lovekov, sees Revice's Eagle Remix for the first time, they will be confused at how its just Vice carrying Revi on his shoulders, along with armor shifting around them. Vice will questioned as to why Lovekov is based on a cobra instead of an eagle, likely causing Lovekov to become sad, thus causing Noelle/Jeanne to punch him whilst saying "Don't hurt my baby!" or something similar.
Kamen Rider Yokai: Calibur disguised as Xerx...that's an interesting idea.
Fanreader365: I didn't realize that the Fourze Driver was repaired. I thought that the destruction of the Fourze Driver was sometime after the events of the Ex-aid and Build movie.
TheOkwriter:
1) When I was given the idea of the "Sun of Knight" Wonder-Ride book, the person said the wielder of the book will face some backlash when using the finishing move which can be reduced if the wielder has a magic to protect them slightly, with water being one of them.
2) I guess that I just a habit to put a lot of information down.
3) Have you started to write a chapter in "AR Ideas of Kamen Riders" for Geats yet?
worseman: Thanks for explaining to the others about the danger of using the "Knight of Sun" Wonder-Ride book. However, Asta in his berserk Primitive Dragon form could potentially snatch "Knight of Sun" off Blades, in the similar manner how Touma stole "Lion Senki", and use it in the "Primitive Dragon" Wonder-Ride book, thus endangering him even further.
