The battles of mirrors and the world of dreams
"What the heck just happened?!" Jack exclaimed in alarmed as he stare at the suddenly partially destroyed Raging Black Bull.
"That was Dorothy's magic…." Sophia responded, a slight look of horror appearing on her face.
"So that sleeping chick got possessed as well, huh? I hope those guys managed to survive her "Glamour World" spell, I've heard some weird stuff about that place." Yami commented, a grim expression appearing on his face.
It was that moment that countless mirrors appeared around the remaining parts of the Raging Black Bull where thousands of light-made swords started to bounce of the mirrors, destroying the rest of the base.
"WAAAAAAAAUGH!" Grey exclaimed as she, Gordon, Henry, Rades and Valtos fell towards the ground.
"There he is! Licht!" Rades shouted, seeing Patry with Drowa and Ecra standing next to him.
"Leave the rest to us. You go on ahead with your precious Licht." Drowa said as he kept his eyes on on the falling Black Bull Magic Knights and two former members of the Eye Of The Midnight Sun.
"Don't...say it like that." Patry said as he turned around and walked away.
"G-Gordon!" Grey exclaimed in a frightened tone of voice.
"Okay." Gordon muttered just as Grimoire opened.
"Poison Cursed Magic: Dwelling Of The Poison Cloud." Gordon announced as he created a purple cloud beneath them.
"What the heck are you doing!?" Rades exclaimed in a shock tone of voice as his eyes widened at the appearance of the purple cloud.
Grey then converted the poison to cotton, letting her and the others land safely.
"Valtos! Let's go after Licht!" Rades said once he stood up properly on the cotton.
This cause Valtos to nod his head before opening a portal which the two then walked into.
"Hey...where your going?" Gordon asked as just as the portal closed.
"Eeeeeeev….boooody…..get awaay…..frooom….meeee." Henry said as he felt Grey's and Gordon's Mana starting to flow into him.
"They just arrived and yet the elves already did a number on them." Yami thought before glancing towards the Shadow Palace where some of the elves are entering the palace through the sphere-like symbol.
"Sophia. Me and tall-and-scrawny here will chase after the elves and try to stop whatever there are planning. Do you mind helping the remaining squad members?" Yami asked, causing Sophia to nod her head.
"Thank you. Let's go tall-and-scrawny." Yami said before starting to chase after the elves into the Shadow Palace.
"Stop bossing me around." Jack said, yet following Yami.
"Oops. A few of them got through. Well, we can just polish off the ones here instantly and then go after the other ones." Drowa commented as he saw Yami and Jack entering the Shadow Palace.
"Okay. Hide-and-seek time. Find them all, Ecra." Drowa said as he returned his attention towards the remaining Black Bulls.
"Uh-huh." Erca said whilst nodding her head slightly.
"Fighting spirit can't do a thing about this, humans." Drowa said before changing the angels of his mirrors.
"Look." Erca said as she reflection appeared on the mirrors with her eyes glowing.
Suddenly, everyone who are looking into Erca's eyes became frozen.
"Erca's eye magic binds anyone who looks into her eyes. It binds them physically, of course, but also blocks their magic. Fall without resistance, unable to cast a single spell!" Drowa explains with a smirk on his face just some mirrors began to glow, the elf preparing to attack.
Suddenly, the glowing mirrors got destroyed.
"Wha-?" Drowa exclaimed, gaining a shock expression on his face.
"Is there's someone who managed to avoid getting frozen by Erca's eye magic!?" Drowa exclaimed in his head as he glanced downwards.
"Brother, look." Erca said as she point towards something, causing Drowa to look as to where Erca is pointing and saw the captain of the Sword Of Logos with her eyes shut and her Grimoire open.
"So she'd managed to avoid Erca's magic by closing her eyes, huh? So that attack was completely random then." Drowa thought, calming down as he glanced towards the mirrors that have been destroyed by spatial magic.
"But no matter! I can simply use my other mirrors!" Drowa said before the other mirrors started to glow before firing beams of light towards Sophia and the three Black Bull Magic Knights.
"I can't see what mirrors to destroy unless I get frozen by that girl's magic." Sophia thought as she gain a slight frustrated expression on her face.
"We're going to die!" Grey, Gordon and Henry exclaimed at the same time as the beams of light headed straight towards them.
"Water Creation Magic: Water Lions Barrier!" A voice announced and three shields appeared in front of the three Black Bull Magic Knights and when the beams of light struck the shields, they bounced off them.
With Sophia, something appeared in front of her, blocking the attack.
"What!? More interference…" Drowa thought, gaining a frustrated expression on his face as he glanced around the ground before spotting someone new entering the battlefield.
"Guys! Are three okay?!" Blades asked as he run up to Grey, Gordon and Henry whilst keeping his eyes firmly on the ground.
The three Black Bull Magic Knights attempted to respond, but their mouths couldn't move.
"So the swordsman of water has entered battlefield and managed to avoid not looking into the mirrors." Drowa commented, a smirk appearing on his face.
"But how can you fight without looking at your opponents?" Drowa questioned before preparing to attack again.
However, it was at that moment that Tanker Bell appeared and smashed the mirror that Erca has been using to use her eye magic eye on.
"Huh?!" Erca questioned, gaining a surprised expression on her face as she stare at Tanker Bell.
"We can move again?!" Everyone thought at the same time.
"Shoo, little fairy." Drowa said as he attempted to swipe Tanker Bell whilst becoming slightly anger.
However, Tanker Bell easily dodged Drowa's hand before sticking out her tong at him.
This cause a tick-mark to appear on Drowa's forehead.
It was then Mana-Bullets flew straight towards Drowa, causing the elf-possessed Gauche to grab his little sister and dived to the sides.
"Those bullets…." Blades thought as he glanced towards the direction that the bullets came from and saw a pink amour-clad Magic Knight.
"Slash! It's good to see you!" Blades said with a smile underneath his face whilst becoming glad that he doesn't have to keep his vision glued on the ground any more.
"Yeah! Now let's get the party started!" Slash exclaimed in an excited tone of voice.
"Hehe….So despite the situation, you're using that Wonder-Ride book…." Blades commented with a small smile on his face.
It was at that moment light pink beams of light appeared, causing everyone to glance towards the source and saw that Drowa is attacking them again.
"I'll use transformation magic to create more mirrors!" Grey thought as she picked up a piece of rubble before throwing it, using her magic to turn it into a mirror, causing one of the beams of light to bounce off it.
"Poison Magic: Forbidden Fruit." Gordon announced as he created a mass of poison which cause another beam of light to scatter.
With Henry, the blue haired Mage move one of the larger pieces of rubble to block a third beam of light.
With the two Sword Of Logos Magic Knights, Blades created a lion-shaped shield in front of him whilst Slash simply dived to the side.
"Even though it's a lot more powerful than it was originally, we are fully aware of what Gauche's magic is capable of!" Slash shouted at Drowa as he got back onto his feet.
"So what if you're familiar with mirror magic, it not like you can beat me and bring back the former owner of this body." Drowa questioned with a raised eyebrow.
"Even if we get Gauche back, he will likely go back to insult us like always." Gordon mumbled.
"He's forever showing us photos of his little sister, and makes models of that little sister…" Grey added, trying to stay brave.
"Heeeee's…..veeeerrryyy…..creeeepyyy…." Henry added this time in a slow tone of voice.
"Even if doing it hurts us, we're absolutely going to get him back to normal so we can complain to his face!" All three Black Bull Magic Knights shouted at the same time.
"Who the heck is that slow poke?" Slash asked as he glanced towards Henry.
"That's Henry. He…...a secret member of the Black Bulls." Blades responded, making the swordsman of sound to raise an eyebrow underneath his helmet.
"I get that you people are close, but don't think that's the best we can do over here. Erca, we're doing that next." Drowa said, making his little sister nod her head.
The elf-possessed Gauche summoned multiple mirrors.
"What are you thinking, doing the same trick tw-" Blades began to ask but was cut off as he was suddenly teleported into the air.
"Blades!?" Everyone exclaimed in a shock tone of voice as they glanced upwards and watch as the swordsman of water continue to teleport further into the air.
"You're the first to go, swordsman of water." Drowa commented before repositioning the mirrors so that all of them have Erca's reflection looking straight at Blades.
"Look.." Erca said with her eyes glowing.
"Nope! I'm not looking!" Blades exclaimed as he close his tightly shut behind his helmet.
"Can you even defend yourself without knowing where my attack would strike?" Drowa questioned as he fired a beam of light which bounced off the mirrors on a complicated path.
"I need to act fast!" Slash exclaimed in his head as he raised the gun form Suzume and aimed it at one of the mirrors and prepared to press the trigger.
However, a hexagon-shaped sphere(?) appeared around Blades, protecting him from the attack before partially disappearing so that he's standing on some sort of platform.
"That shield…" Drowa thought as his eye widened before scanning the ground.
"Deciding to join the gig then?" Slash questioned as he glanced over his shoulder to see the elf-possessed Coral Peacock Magic Knight with "her" Grimoire opened.
"Aspida?! What is the meaning of this?!" Drowa shouted in a shock/angry tone of voice.
"I'm sorry, Drowa. But I can't let this act of revenge continue." The now known Aspida responded with a slight nervous expression on her face.
"What are you talking about?! The humans slaughtered us 500 years ago, and yet you decided to join their side?!" Drowa questioned, causing Aspida to become tense.
"Brother...she seems different…" Erca pointed out, causing Drowa to become confused at what his sister before realizing what she's getting at.
"I see. The malice surrounding Aspida has been washed away somehow. I know that getting rid of the side effects of the reincarnation spell is part of Patry's plan, but it is far too soon for that." Drowa thought whilst calming down slightly.
"If that's your choice, Aspida, then so be it. I will let Erca paralyze you…..once I finish off the swordsman of water!" Drowa shouted before suddenly firing a beam of light straight at Blades again, but this time being much faster.
"I won't be able to bring up the shield again with that speed!" Aspida exclaimed in her head, seeing how fast Drowa's attack is going.
Luckily, it was at that moment that Blades was suddenly jerked to the side, letting the attack miss him.
"Who is it this time!?" Drowa exclaimed in anger.
"That would be me." A voice responded, causing everyone to look in the direction of the voice to see the elf-possessed Green Mantis Magic Knight approaching them….along with Sophia.
"There's another one whose malice has been washed away!" Drowa exclaimed in his head before starting to become worried that there could be other elves who have been freed from the clutches of malice.
"Elxi! Why are you and Aspida becoming traitors to your fellow elves!?" Drowa asked the now known Elxi, focusing on the main issue.
"Whilst it kind of hurt of fighting my fellow elves, I cannot overlook that you and the others have decided to open the Shadow Palace, something that is deemed forbidden!" Elxi responded in a serious tone of voice.
"What are you talking about? All of this is required for the elves's revenge against humans." Drowa explained before sighing deeply.
"I guess that me and Erca have no choice but to fight you two as well. Don't worry, I do my best not to kill you." Drowa said as he prepared to attack again.
"Sorry about this, swordsman of water!" Elxi shouted before doing some hand gestures.
"Hm? What do you me-Whoa!" Blades exclaimed as he suddenly felt himself moving again by some invisible force, this time heading straight towards Drowa.
With Blades heading straight towards him and Erca, Drowa had no choice but to cancel his attack and jumped to the sides whilst holding his sister tightly.
"Tch. Elxi's magmatism magic is troublesome.…." Drowa muttered in an annoyed tone of voice.
"How is Elxi manage to move me about…..?" Blades questioned in his head before noticing metal spheres floating around him.
"….Is his magic involves magnetism?" Blades thought, realizing that Elxi must be moving him about through his armor.
"No more thinking, I have to finish this!" Blades exclaimed as he changed forwards, Nagare at the ready, being careful to attack Drowa and not hit Erca.
However, despite the frustration that he's been feeling, Drowa began to smirk as he lifted his hair, revealing his eyed-shaped mirror magic item.
"Huh-!?" Blades said becoming confuse before realizing that Erca's face is reflecting off the Magic Item, making his body to freeze.
"See ya." Drowa said as he produced a giant mirror and prepared to fire a powerful beam of light.
"Elxi! Please use your magic!" Blades exclaimed in his, starting to panic.
As if responding to his plea, Blades's body moved to the sides, avoiding the attack.
"fhew! That was cl-!" Blades began to say but was cut off as he felt his body freezing again.
"Elxi may have saved you from my attack, but you can't run away from Erca's gaze." Drowa said with a smirk on his face.
"Poison Magic: Violett Schrim." A voice spoke, causing a mass of poison to appear in front of Blades.
"Magic Conversion!" Another voice spoke, transforming the poison into a mirror.
"wha-!?" Drowa began to say before starting to feel his own body starting to freeze this time.
Blades turned his head and saw a small object flying towards him which has Gordon and Grey on top of it whilst Henry is in it, the flying object having been created from the pieces of the destroyed Raging Black Bull.
"Thank you!" Blades called whilst starting to become relieved.
"Yoooooouuuu'reeee…..weeeellllcommmmmee…." Henry said, his voice slightly muffled as he speak through the small mirror that he's looking through.
Next the swordsman of water, a golden portal appeared where Slash, Aspida, Elxi and Sophia walked out of.
"You took your time. That attack almost hit me." Blades said, making Elxi gain a sheepish smile on his face.
"S-so what's the p-plan?" Grey asked as she kept a firm grip on the top of the flying object which is created from roof tiles.
"Our main aim is to knock the elves that are possessing Gauche and his little sister, so Slash, when you get in range, unleash a powerful "Infernal Note" spell." Sophia explained as she glanced towards Slash.
"You got it!" Slash said, starting to grin underneath his helmet.
"Elxi, Aspida. You two will remain behind this mirror to prevent the girl's magic from effecting you, including myself. The rest of you will distract elf-possessed Gauche long enough for Slash to activate his magic." Sophia further explained, causing everyone else to nod their heads.
On the other side of the mirror, Erca deactivate her magic, allowing her brother to move again. "I must admit, that was some clever thinking." Drowa muttered with a small smirk on his face.
"What do you think they're doing behind that mirror?" Erca wondered, tilting her her head to side slightly.
"Let's see shall we." Drowa said as he summoned mirrors that are positioned behind the mirror that Gordon and Grey have created.
However, before a proper reflection can be formed, the mirrors suddenly transformed into rocks.
"What?!" Drowa exclaimed in a shock tone of voice just as Blades and Henry's flying object appeared from behind the mirror.
"Just those four?" Drowa questioned in his head as he started to fire beams of light at the Magic Knights.
However, hexagon-shaped shields appeared around Blades and Henry's flying object, protecting them from Drowa's attacks.
"With Aspida behind that wall, there's no way Erca's magic can reach her and if I attempted to create any mirrors, then that blue hair girl will simply use her magic to transform them into something else." Drowa thought, remembering how Grey transformed the mass of poison into a mirror.
It was at that moment that Blades got close to the elf-possessed Gauche and swing Nagare at him with Aspida's shield disappearing.
However, a mirror appeared behind the swordsman of water which fired a beam of light towards.
Luckily, Blades was suddenly jerked to the side thanks to Exli's magic, allowing him to avoid getting hit.
"That's still feel strange, getting your body suddenly jerked about." Blades thought as he skidded to a stop.
Drowa glanced in the other direction and saw Henry's flying object with Aspida's shields down.
"So they're planning something." Drowa thought as he notice Gordon starting to produce a mass of poison.
"Whatever you're planning, I kill you before you can put into action since Aspida's magic can't protect you!" Drowa shouted as he fired multiple beams of light towards the Black Bulls Magic Knights.
Luckily, Henry managed to maneuverer the flying object and somehow managed not to let the flying object get hit by the beams of light.
"Eeeeeek! Magic Conversion!" Grey announced whilst keeping a firm grip on the tiles, transforming the poison into a metal shuriken.
"Hm? What are they planning on doing with that-!?" Drowa began to thought but was cut off as the metal shuriken suddenly moved straight towards him and Erca.
Whilst Drowa managed to get him and Erca out of harms way, the elf-possessed Gauche noticed something.
"Did Elxi purposely missed?" Drowa thought, thinking over the path that the metal shuriken went before striking the ground.
"Now that you two are in the right spot…" A voice suddenly spoke, causing both Drowa and Erca to become shock before spinning around.
"Have a blast of some awesome sound! Music Magic: Infernal Note!" Slash exclaimed in an excited tone of voice before releasing a high-pitch sound wave, causing both Drowa and Erca to become knocked out and fall onto the ground.
"Good. We've managed to beat them without dealing too much damaged." Sophia commented as she and the others gathered around, the unconscious forms of Drowa and Erca.
"So what now, do we head into that…..thing?" Blades asked, glancing towards the Shadow Palace with a confused expression underneath his helmet, him not knowing the name. Sophia shook her head in response.
"No. it would be best if we remain here and wait for other Magic Knights. With the appearance of the Shadow Palace, they will gather here." Sophia explained, making the swordsman of water nod his head.
"I wonder how Espada and the others are doing…." Sophia thought, starting to become worried.
(Turning the clock back)
"Where the heck are we?!" Magna exclaimed in a shock tone of voice as he glanced at his surroundings.
The three Black Bulls Magic Knights, one Sword Of Logos Magic Knights, maid and Sally found themselves standing on a giant fancy-looking bed which itself is floating in a pink space, joined by other bizarre objects.
"...I've only heard of it, but I think I know where we are…." Espada said whilst becoming tense.
"Really?! Where!?" Magna exclaimed, becoming slightly relieved.
"I believe this is "Glamour World", an endless space where anything is possible." Espada responded as she glanced at the strange objects that are floating about.
"And how exactly did we end up here?" Vanessa asked, realizing that since that this isn't an attack, Rouge's ability wouldn't have activated.
"Glamour World" is a spell originating from dream magic…..Captain Dorothy's magic." Espada explained, causing the rest to become wide eyed.
"You are mistaken." A voice suddenly spoke, causing everyone to jump before turning around towards the source of the voice to see the elf-possessed Dorothy descending towards them.
"This is my "Glamour World" now, and my name is Reve." The now named Reve explained in an emotionless tone of voice.
"So this elf has the complete opposite personality as Dorothy-!" Espada thought before noticing that the bed has transformed into vines, trapping her and the others.
"The bed just-!" Magna exclaimed as he attempted to break free.
"The impossible becomes the possible, it's all the way I want it to be." Reve explained before yawning.
At that moment, a large creature with light pink skin suddenly appeared.
"What sort of creature is that?!" Fiona asked with a surprise expression on her face.
"Do you think it tastes good?" Charmy asked, starting to drool.
"So you people…..have no chance of winning." Reve said just as the large creature opened it's mouth and descend upon the Magic Knights, maid and scientist.
"Sleep forever." Reve commented just as the large creature bit down on the bed, completely killing the occupants.….or so it seemed.
"Bwaaaaaa!" The Magic Knights and scientists exclaimed as they appeared completely unharmed.
"The result was changed!? So one of them possess a spell that can interfere with the natural law." Reve thought, thinking back to how non of the elf's attack hit the Raging Black Bull.
"Whoa, neat! What is up with this world?! This just might be the biggest spell any one Mage could possibly create!" Sally exclaimed in an excited tone of voice as she glanced around.
"She's seemed excited despite the situation we're in." Espada thought whilst sweat-dropping.
It was at that moment that Sally turned her attention towards Rouge.
"And this cat is incredible too!" Sally exclaimed, causing Rouge to make a "Mrowr" noise.
"You're not from the Black Bulls or the Sword Of Logos, so if you moved away from the group, its effect won't cover you." Vanessa explained, making Sally nod her head.
"I see! It only works on allies! Of course something this awesome would have conditions." Sally said, saying the last part to herself.
"Dream magic and thread magic. These two witches are amazing! Aaaaaaah, I want to research this!" Sally exclaimed in her head, becoming more excited.
"I'm starting to worry about her…." Espada thought, sweat-dropping slightly.
"All right, go on! Once you've used magic, eat up and recover your energy!" Charmy said, somehow having a plate of food in her hands whilst a sheep is preparing more food.
"That's fantastic too! And you're a witch, are you?" Sally asked, managing to calm down.
"Nope. I just love food." Charmy responded as she began to feed Vanessa.
"An inexhaustible magic supply and absolute evasion…..this isn't going to be easy." Reve thought, a small frown appearing on her face.
"If this place a spell, then if we crush her, then we'll be able to get out!" Magna shouted as he started to throw fireballs at Reve.
"Right behind you!" Espada said as she fired lighting bolts from her "Lamp Buster" spell.
"Useless…" Reve commented as two giant stuff animals appeared in front of her, blocking the attacks.
"Ooooooh! Do you think she can use magic of any attribute?! What can she use, and how much?!" Sally wondered, her excitement flaring up again.
"Don't jinx us." Fiona said, glancing towards the scientist.
"I'm the foundation of the defense, and Charmy's in charge of magic recovery, being trapped in this world is bad news. We have to get back to the others, fast! But for now, all we can do with Rouge's power is evade." Vanessa thought just as Reve summoned three giant hands where each one is created from different elements. Luckily, Rouge's power protected the Magic Knights and scientist.
"Vanessa! Eat like crazy!" Magna exclaimed whilst starting to sweat slightly.
"Go! Go! Vanessa!" Charmy cheered as Vanessa constantly eat food.
"If Vanessa gets fat, then I'm electrocuting the both of you." Espada explained in a dangerous tone of voice, causing Magna and Charmy to shiver.
"If there's a limit to their recovery, then how about…." Reve began to think before creating water.
"An infinite water that wells up continuously." Reve commented just as the water began to expand.
"And the blade-fish that perpetually spawn from it." Reve added just as fish equipped with sword-like horns suddenly burst out of the water.
"DWAAAAAAA!" The Magic Knights and scientist shouted in alarm as the water and sword-fishes descended upon them.
"The food!" Charmy exclaimed as one of the sword-fish started to eat the food that she's currently holding.
"Not good." Vanessa commented whilst starting to become worried at the fact that their means of magic recovery is getting cut off.
"Swords-woman! Attack that mass of water." Sally instructed whilst pointing at the huge wave that is heading straight towards them.
"Really?" Espada asked, gaining a questioning expression underneath her helmet.
"Yes! Hit it with all you got." Sally responded, making the swords-woman of lighting to nod her head slightly before pointing "Lamp Buster" at the approaching wave and fired a bolt of lighting, pouring a large amount of Mana into it.
Lighting started to course through the water.
"Now what?" Espada asked, giving the scientist a questioning look.
"Now, you attack, fire proto-zoan." Sally responded.
"Who's a fire proto-zoan, you moron!" Magna exclaimed in an angry tone of voice.
"Just hit it as fast and hard as you possibly can." Sally said, completely ignoring Magna's shout.
"Why you…." Magna grumbled slightly before activating his magic.
"Flame Magic: Gargantuan Exploding Fireball!" Magna shouted before throwing a giant fireball at the water.
When the giant fireball struck the water, a large explosion occurred.
"Wha…..What just happened?!" Vanessa asked with a stunned expression on her face.
"If you use electricity to chemically decompose water, then set fire to what's left, it's explode." Sally explained, but simply received blank expressions.
"Anyhow, this proves a theory of mine. First, what's she's generating are the actual objects she visualizes, and their composition's the same, too! That means real-life principles work on them! Second, because of that, she can't manipulate the resulting phenomena and the spells we cast and third, even so, it's going to be hard to take her down." Sally explained whilst making everyone sweat-drop at the last part.
"We need to get out of this weird space ASAP!" Magna said in a serious tone of voice.
"You don't….have that kind of time…." Reve commented just as the barrier, that she conjured up to project herself from the explosion disappeared.
It was at moment that Charmy began to wobble slightly.
"So….Sleepy…." Charmy mumbled in a tired tone of voice.
"Heeey! This ain't no time for a nap!" Magna shouted as he started to shake the Black Bull cotton Mage.
"No...she's right…" Vanessa muttered as she started to gain a strange feeling.
"This is "Glamour World's" doing!" Espada said as she attempted to stay on her feet.
"That's right. All those within "Glamour World" will grow sleepier and sleepier. And once you fall asleep….you'll never wake up again. Slowly sink into the sleep of death. Here in this space….unable to do a thing." Reve explained as she observe the Magic Knights and scientist attempting to stay awake.
"Hmmmmm. I had a fuzzy idea, but now my head's even fuzzier…" Sally thought as she yawned.
"…...That's it!" Sally thought just as an idea appeared within her head.
"Hey, look! What are these?!" Sally asked Reve whilst making a shape with her fingers over her hands.
"The answer….is "Glasses"!" Sally said with a wide smile on her face.
"She's lost it." The Magic Knights and maid thought at the same time.
"….." Reve remained silent, but after a few seconds, a pair of glasses appear in front of Sally.
"Yay!" Sally exclaimed as she took them.
"What was that?" Magna asked in a surprise tone of voice.
"Well, she thought of them, so they manifested. Sooo…." Sally began to say whilst placing the newly made glasses over her eyes.
"What this worlds need is…..An exit! Exit! Exit! Make that!" Sally shouted, causing a surprise expression to appear on Reve's face.
Suddenly, many doors started to appear around them.
"See, once you've thought of something, as a rule, it's pretty hard to intentionally get it out of your head." Sally explained before giggling slightly.
"Let's get out of here!" Espada said as she made her golden carpet appear which then zoomed towards the nearest door.
"Once we get through the door, we'll be able to regroup with the others back in the real world." Vanessa commented, starting to become relieved.
"I won't let you." Reve said as chains started to appear around the doors.
"Gha!" Espada exclaimed as she slammed in front of a chained door…..before the others slammed into her.
"If I can't erase them, I simply have to seal them up." Reve explained as she watched the Magic Knights and scientist get off each other.
"Arrrrrrgh. We were almost there! Exit! Exit! Exiiiit! Being out another exit! C'com!" Magna shouted as he look towards Reve.
"If she got her mind locked down, that won't work any more, Exploding Protozoan." Sally explained, causing Magna to become frustrated.
"This is bad news! I'm so sleepy! If we don't get out of here, we're finished. Everything's possible in this dream world, isn't it?" Vanessa asked as she rubbed her eyes.
"I…..think I have an idea." Espada said, causing the others to become curious.
"I don't know what you're planning, but no matter what you do, you can't get out of here." Reve commented as she observe the Magic Knights and scientist discussing something.
"Right! Manga, you're up first!" Espada said whilst secretly that her plan works.
"All right! Flame Magic: Time Bomb Explosive scattershot!" Magna announced as he throw multiple fireballs which explode by themselves, causing the smoke to obscure Reve's vision.
"Trying to hide from me, in this world?" Reve questioned as she summon animals which started to suck in the air.
"There's no….?" Reve began to say but stop when she started to see a shape within the smoke.
"What is….." Reve thought, her eyes widening.
"What we made isn't real, of course. It's not like the things you generated. It's a doll made out of Charmy's cotton and Vanessa's thread. We used Magna's flames to create a mirage, blurring it, it's just a fake. But for the briefest moment, a certain thought must have crossed you're mind. The possibility that it might be the real thing! After all, right now, all those who have been possessed have two souls that are linked to each other in the same body. And so, no matter how little you want to, that illusion might make you imagine and create her, the real Dorothy Unsworth!" Espada thought with a smirk underneath her helmet, the creation that Charmy and Vanessa have created is a model of the captain of the Coral Peacock.
"Oh on!" Reve exclaimed in a shock tone of voice has her human counter-part appeared in front of her.
"Yes! It works!" The swords-woman of lighting exclaimed in a relieved tone of voice just as Dorothy's eyes blinked open.
The captain of the Coral Peacock turned her attention towards the other Magic Knights and scientists.
"So it was you who summoned me?" Dorothy asked in a blank tone of voice, making the three Black Bull Magic Knights to become nervous.
"That was…..an excellent idea, Espada-Chan!" Dorothy exclaimed, her tone transforming tone of voice.
This cause the Black Bulls Magic Knights and scientist to become stunned.
"She's…..certainly chirpy…." Magna commented whilst blinking his eyes.
"Espada-Chan….?" Vanessa asked, giving the swords-woman of lighting a questioning look.
"Yeah, me and the rest of the Sword Of Logos Magic Knights are friends with her." Espada explained with a sheepish smile underneath her helmet.
"Just leave everything to me! You're big sister is a captain after all!" Dorothy said with a wide smile on her face.
"Big sister? How old are you?" Sally asked, becoming curious.
"You asking that now?" Vanessa asked, giving the scientist with a questioning look.
"I'm 27! I'm right at my peak!" Dorothy responded in a carefree manner.
"She actually answered…." Vanessa thought, sweat-dropping slightly.
"Go to sleep….in the depths of my souls once more." Reve said just before Dorothy made shadowy arms appear around the elf version of her.
However, Reve created rocky spikes, destroying the shadowy arms.
"We've both finally met someone who can share our dreams let's play a little." Dorothy said as she summoned multiple butterflies.
"Who would play with a human?!" Reve questioned as she created a mass of water which engulf the butterflies before they could hit her.
The captain of the Coral Peacock then summoned swords which then shoot towards Reve, but only to be blocked dream-created birds.
"Hehehehe! This is getting fun!" Dorothy commented with a wide smile on her face.
"Silence!" Reve said with an angry look in her eyes.
Before long, "Glamour World" has transformed into a battlefield where the other Magic Knights, maid and scientists kept a firm grip on Espada's golden carpet has they got flung about.
And a few minutes, Reve started to notice something.
"It's can't support the dreams of two people?! "Glamour World" is collapsing!" Reve thought as she observe everything starting to break apart.
"AAAAAAAAAAUGH!" Everyone shouted as they started to get knocked around violently.
"Ahhhhh, that was fun! I feel so much better!" Dorothy said with a smile on her face.
"Take care of my body, okay?" Dorothy asked as she and everything else started to disappear.
After a few seconds of being dazed, the Sword Of Logos Magic Knight, the Black Bulls Magic Knights and scientists found themselves back in the palace courtyard.
"Yes! We're back!" Charmy exclaimed in a happy tone of voice.
"It's not over yet." Espada pointed out as she look up to see Reve still floating in the air.
"Then Let's take her out then!" Magna said as he got his magic at the ready.
With the aid of Vanessa's thread magic, both Espada and Magna are sent flying straight towards Reve.
"Fire and lighting compound attack!" Espada and Magna announced as they combined their magic and throwing a ball of fire and lighting which then engulfed Reve whilst brightening up the night sky.
And there we go, the battle in the real world against Drowa and Erca and the battle in Glamour World with Reve. The names of the two elves that Slash encountered and managed to get cooperation have been revealed along with their magic.
In Geats:
1) The final mission of the current DGP starts...yet no Jamato have appeared, causing Chirami to contact Archimedel who simply responded to "do it yourself", prompting Chirami to create a game of hide-and-seek, along with transforming into Kamen Rider Glare2.
2) The three participants starts to chase Glare2, but were interrupted by GM Riders and traps, with Tycoon landing in a two land-mined type traps and getting caught within a cage, resulting in him getting drawn on by a GM Riders.
3) As the participants take a break, they got into a argument about the potential identity of the Desastar, started by Neon. As she left to her own thoughts, Nago was encountered by a person, who is returning a dropped item of hers, before commenting how her behavior will cause her trouble. Meanwhile, Ace has been approached by Ziin who informed about Beroba and her status as a Jamato supporter and Baffa's supporter.
4) As the second half of the final mission starts, everyone has a hard time capturing Glare2 which eventually leads to Nago sabotaging Geats' attack, as per her mission, and claim that Ace is the Desastar...resulting in Glare2 to become excited and started to dance before getting confronted by Baffa and Nadge-Sparrow.
5) Ace, Kiewa and Neon retuned to their argument about the identity of the Desastar and Kiewa figured it out that Neon is the Desastar. As this is going on, Chirami has been beaten by Beroba, in her unknown Kamen Rider form, who took the Vision Driver, stating that they are used to access the goddess of creation.
6) Chirami attempted to get his stolen Vision Driver back, but Beroba is able to paralyze him. Before anything else can happen, Ziin appeared and asked Beroba to stop what she and the others are planning, but Beroba responded that she wants to start something more fun before requesting that Ziin should join her. Zinn refused before transforming into Kamen Rider Ziin with the gun-based transformation belt, the Laser Raiser Riser.
The rule for this chapter is that the various systems that underpin the DGP are controlled by the Game Master's Driver. So we got to see what the goddess of creation looks like and I did have a feeling that the goddess of creation is a object rather than a actual person. However, the statue could just be a sealed form of the goddess of creation and when a new Desire God is shown, the goddess of creation awakens and recreate the world, but I'm not sure what the possible catalyst for the awakening is though. It was a surprise that a new Kamen Rider has appeared, a futurist one similar to Glare, Glare2 and Gazer, and possibly Beroba's Kamen Rider form. With Ace's theory that the audience members, and some members of the DGP staff, are from a different era, it could be that they are from the future, based on the futurist Kamen Riders, and somehow transported to the distant past and started the DGP for some reason.
Please review and until next time.
Dragon Rider 66:
1) Slash will be persuading a lot for the Magic Knights to not fight Aspida and Elxi whilst the two elves hide behind one of Aspida's shield. It would have been nice to see a bit more about Sister Lilly's past such as her parents and the house that she grew up in before joining the church. That does the most likely think to happen, Ryu recounting the legend whilst observing the battle against five-headed dragon. As for the time spend on Asta's training, plus healing, there should have been a text box of some kind which indicated what day we were on.
2) Hmm, I do have the feeling that Ace is somewhat connected to the Goddess of creation since his mother's name does refer to eyes. Kiewa did commented about if Kekera was a frog-shaped speaker. If that is the case, then who is the real speaker, they would have some close ties to Kiewa if they have a interest in him right from the very start.
3) That...certainly will be a odd moment for everyone close by to watch
4) Tycoon was certainly a little bit unnerved with how Glare2 dodge Geast's bullets whilst on the ground, and how did Geats managed not to hit Glare2 at such close range!?
5) That could have been another outcome, Gaim and his fellow Riders will be confused when the DGP start to call them Jamatos and start to attack them.
6) Asta kissing Sister Lilly= causes Noelle and Mimosa to freak out BIG time!
7) It would be interesting to see Baffa using his own unique Raise Buckles since he's starting to follow a different path than the other DGP Riders.
8) Keiwa is starting to become unlucky about not getting to use any of the stronger Raise Buckles, but at least he still has the "Twin Command" Raise Buckle.
9) Good news, new Riders are appearing with different armors, Kamen Rider Ziin and the Kamen Rider that Beroba transformed into, but unseen for now.
10) Well, her identity as the Desastar has been revealed with how she acted, going with ranting rather than acting in a stealth-like manner.
Worseman:
1) Well, Everyone did have trouble fighting against the elves in this chapter.
2) Hehehe, I may or may not have a Rider connected to the elves in mind. The Shadow Palace being responsible for Falchion's resurrection, that sounds like a cool idea.
3) That would be certainly interesting to see, Yuri/Saikou bringing emotional damage to everyone before escaping with Asta and Marie.
4) I try to make the chapters longer, no promises though.
5:
a) If Asta has his anti-magic, then dealing with the Phantoms will be easy since Phantoms can be seen as beings created from a negative form of Mana.
b) I can see the Magic Knights having trouble against the Undeads since they are immortal.
c) The Magic Knights will have trouble fighting the Worms due to their Clock Up ability, with Julius being the only who can easily fight them because of his time magic.
d) With the Imagin, they may have trouble dealing the numbers of the Imagins since they will mostly target those of the Forsaken Ream and Common Realm with the hosts desiring something like destroying the upper-class due to the treatment they receive from them.
e) The Magic Knights will have a easy time fighting the lower-rank Invases, with Mimosa and other healers on standby just in case anyone get scratched by a invas, but will have trouble fighting the Overlord invases.
f) The Magic Knights will have trouble fighting the Roidmudes when they use their heavy acceleration ability, with Julius having a more easier time because of his time magic.
g) The Magic Knights will have trouble fighting the Gamma at first since the can sense the Gamma, for the Ki readers anyway, but can't see them, until developing the means of revealing the Gamma's form.
h) For the Geeeds...I suppose just heavy attacks until they comply bleed Cell Medels.
i) The same for the Magia, simply hitting them until they explode.
l) For Another Riders...they will have a difficult time completely destroying them.
Brainwork27:
1) That...certainly puts a twist to the arc, which will certainly crush the elves' spirits.
2) Thanks for the idea and Archangel Uriel is certainly a good match-up for this version of Asta.
itspowertime:
1) Hehehe, the Megid General do have one more secret up their selves in this arc.
2) If the ones that knew Asta's Floges charade don't say anything, then he could potential go until the very end.
