The Merchant and...?
"So this is the Clover branch of the Sword of Logos." Domi commented as she and the rest of the Sword of Logos returned to their headquarters by brooms.
"That's correct. You can stay here as long you're in the Clover Kingdom." Ryo said, making Domi nod her head.
"Thank you." The wielder(s) of Eien no Midori responded, she having been a bit worried about where she would be staying whilst in the Clover Kingdom.
"Hm? Is that Fiona?" Noelle asked, thinking that she can see the maid of the Sword of Logos standing outside of the base.
"Seems like it, but who is the other person?" Rintaro questioned as he and the others notice how there is a second person standing beside Fiona with some bags surrounding them.
"She's…." The wielder of Gekido thought as he notice how the woman possess long black hair with silver tips.
"Hey! Fiona!" Rin called as she and the others close down on the ground, making the maid of the Sword of Logos and the unknown woman, who possess sky blue eyes, to turn their heads towards the returning group.
"Hello everyone. How did the meeting go?" Fiona asked, becoming curious.
"The meeting…..was productive…." Ryo responded in a slight tense tone of voice, causing a worrying expression to appear on Fiona's face.
"Anyway. This is Domi, the Kamen Rider that is stationed within the Heart Kingdom. Well, one of them anyway." The wielder of Gekido introduced Domi to Fiona and the still unknown woman, making the both them to widened their eyes.
"Hm? I did here that there is a Holy Sword wielder residing within the Heart Kingdom…..but with some slight problems." The unknown woman commented as she examine Domi.
"Slight problems!? What the does that suppose to mean?!" Fillon shouted within Domi's head, making her flitch slightly.
"Who are you?" Noelle asked, giving the unknown woman a raised eye-brow.
"Everyone, this is Alyssa Celeborn, she's the sponsor for the Clover branch." Ryo introduced the now known Alyssa Celeborn to everyone.
"Hello everyone." Alyssa greeted, bowing slightly.
"Sponsor?" Rin asked, tilting her head to the side slightly.
"Yes. She's deliver equipment and other necessities for our base." Ryo further explained, making Rin nod her head slightly.
"I thought that it was Fiona who collect equipment for us." Rintaro commented, him and everyone else seeing Fiona carrying bags full of equipment in the past, making everyone surprise at how much the maid of the Sword of Logos can carry at once.
"I run a merchant guild within Wonder World, so she comes to us. But some trouble have started to occur." Alyssa explained, causing Fiona head to nod her head in confirmation.
The others to glance started to glance at each other.
"Anyway. Lets continue this meeting inside. Tetsuo will need to be informed what is happening. Alyssa, do you want to listen in as well?" Ryo asked, glancing towards the merchant.
"I suppose so. It could be linked to the ongoings within Wonder World." Alyssa responded, shrugging her shoulders slightly, making everyone sweat-drop slightly.
Before long, the group entered through the doors Sword of Logos's headquarters, with a few carrying some bags between them.
"Now Fiona, can you please call Tetsuo and tell him meet us at the meeting room." Ryo explained, making Fiona nod her head…..yet started to gain a hesitate expression on her face.
"…..He's still upset about the current state of Eirn no Midori." Ryo stated in a blank tone of voice.
"Y-yes. But I will fetch him." Fiona before starting to make her way towards Tetsuo's workshop.
"Current state?" Alyssa asked, raising an eye-brow.
"Yes. When Eien no Midori ended up in the Heart Kingdom, it got damaged and someone attempted to mend it, but it ended up taking on the form of a bow, something that Mr Daishinji isn't happy." Donna explained, making Alyssa blink her eyes slightly.
"A Holy Sword taking on a different shape? That's new." Alyssa commented with a thoughtful expression on her face.
It was at that moment that foot steps can be heard, causing everyone to turn towards source of the sound just in time to see Tetsuo appearing.
"Oh! You guys are ba-?" Tetsuo began to say before stopping where he saw Domi and Alyssa.
"This is our sponsor, Aylssa Celeborn who decided to come to us this time and this is Domi, the wielder of….Eien no Midori….." Ryo introduced the two to Tetsuo whilst everyone started to back away, especially from Domi.
"Oh, right…..What did you say?!" Tetsuo asked, focusing on the last part.
"She's Domi, the wielder of Eien no M/Show me it!" Tetsuo exclaimed before lunging towards Domi.
Rin was about to tackle the wielder of Suzume, but stop when she sensed something.
As soon as Tetsuo got close to the wielder(s) of Eien no Midori, she sharply raised a leg, kicking the wielder of Sezume between the legs.
"Gha….." Tetsuo muttered as he collapsed onto the ground.
"Honestly. I knew that you're a Holy Sword fanatic, but there's no need to lunge towards us." Fillon said with a scowl on her face whilst everyone else stared at her, blinking their eyes owlishly.
"S-so. The Clover Kingdom has decided to join forces with the Heart Kingdom to invade the Spade Kingdom who possess the powers of the Devils and have being expanding their territory." Tetsuo commented as he, Fiona and Alyssa finished hearing Ryo's explanation of what happened at the captain's meeting.
Currently, everyone is in the meeting with the wielder of Sezume, still in pain, being supported by Rintaro whilst Noelle, Donna and Rin stood between him and Domi.
"That's correct, however, Queen Lolopechika requested that those who want to take part in the invasion will need to be a level 1 or higher in their magic. Within six months, that will gives us enough time to train our magic." Ryo explained, making Tetsuo nod his head whilst Fiona has a worried expression on her face.
"…..You're referring to the magic tier system that the Heart Kingdom possess?" Alyssa questioned, she having heard something about the Heart Kingdom possessing a system of judging ones magic.
"That's correct. What are your thoughts on the matter, Miss Celeborn?" Ryo asked, becoming curious whilst remembering how the merchant talked about strange ongoings in Wonder World.
"There's been talk about people encounter Mages possessing a dark aura. Not sure what that's about though, but considering what's happening here, I suppose that the Spade Kingdom's influence of using the power of the Devils have starting to spread into Wonder World." Alyssa explained with a slight frown on her face.
This cause worrying expressions to appear on the Sword of Logos Magic Knight's and Domi's, plus maid's, faces.
"I'm surprise that you haven't gotten a report about that, considering how big the Sword of Logos is." Aylssa commented whilst glancing towards Ryo.
"Well….I suppose that we have our our hands full with the current problem so the main branch didn't have time to report this matter to us…." The wielder of Gekido responded with a slight grim expression, making Alyssa nod her head slightly.
"I….I have been meaning to start a project which could be helpful for the upcoming war." Tetsuo said, causing everyone to look at the wielder of Sezume.
"Really? What sort of project?" Rin asked, she and everyone else becoming curious.
"You'll find out later, although it's a found inspiration from Prince Lumiere." Tetsuo explained, causing mostly everyone to become surprise.
"You're not got copying and pasting Prince's work?" Secre asked with a slight suspicious expression on her face.
"No….." Tetsuo responded…..whilst avoiding eye-contact.
"Hmmmm….." Alyssa hummed slightly, gaining a thoughtful expression on her face.
"Is there something on your mind?" Noelle asked as she notice the expression on the merchant's face.
"I was just thinking that this could be an idea time to open a new branch within the Clover Kingdom. With the upcoming war, the Magic Knights, plus anyone else will want to buy Magic Items to better defend themselves." Alyssa explained, a small smile appearing on her face.
This cause mostly everyone to sweat-drop.
"Is that the first thing that comes into your mind?!" Mostly everyone thought at the same time.
"There's an underground market within the Royal Capital. I would suggest opening a shop there first before expanding." Rin suggested, making Alyssa blink her eyes slightly before nodding her head.
"Don't give her any ideas!" Everyone else shouted, making the wielder of Hayate jump slightly.
"Anyway. You're free to stay here if your planning on expanding your business….which is far away as possible from the black market." Ryo offered, saying the last part whilst giving Rin a look, causing the wielder of Hayate to start pouting.
"Thank you. I think I will take on your offer." Alyssa said, a small smile on her face.
"Good. Fiona, would you mind getting things ready for Miss Celeborn's and Domi's room." Ryo said, making Fiona nod her head.
"I sleep nude, so I don't need pajamas." Alyssa said, causing everyone to stare at her with blank expressions on their faces.
"…..What?" Alyssa asked, tilting her head to the side.
"Miss Celeborn…..I don't think that's something you should say out loud." Rintaro pointed out whilst starting to gain a slight awkward expression on his face.
"Does it really matter? It not like anyone will be watching me….." Alyssa explained before starting to a suspicious expression on her face.
"I'm not that sort of person!" The wielder of Nagare exclaimed, starting to blush.
"Neither I'm I." Tetsuo responded quickly just as Alyssa turned her head towards the wielder of Sezume.
"I'm am already married with a child." Ryo offered just as Alyssa turned her attention towards him.
"…..I see." The merchant responded, knowing what the wielder of Gekido is implying.
"S-so. Is there any you need, Miss Domi?" Fiona asked, attempting to move the conversation.
"I…..sleep nude as well, so I don't need pajamas either." Domi responded in a shy tone of voice.
"Another one!" Everyone shouted at the same time.
"O-okay." Fiona said, a slight blush starting to appear on her face.
It was at that moment that Fillon took Domi's place.
"An elf vessel." Alyssa and Fiona thought, with the maid's eyes widening as the two of them notice the pointy ears that "Domi" suddenly gained.
"I've got a great idea. Why don't we share a room? It will be more beneficial that way. Plus, I'm was feeling offended when you made that comment about us having "Slight problems" so you need to make it up with us in some way." Fillon explained, a smirk appearing on her face as she examine Alyssa's body.
This cause everyone to gain shock expressions on their faces whilst the younger members of the Sword of Logos started to blush deeply, having a good idea as to what the wielder(s) of Eien no Midori is implying.
"Pervert." Alyssa stated, taking a step back away from Fillon.
"Come on. It will be fun." Fillon said as she took a step forwards.
"How the hell did the conversation turned into this?!" Everyone shouted in their heads.
"So the Clover Kingdom is going to war, hmm." Master Logos mused, him having been updated about the current events from Ryo.
"And not just that, but Eien no Midori has been found…..although not in its original form though." Master Logos thought, a small smirk appearing on his face.
It was at that moment that a knock from the door to his office is heard.
"Come in." Master Logos said and when the door opened, his eyes widened underneath his hood when he saw who it is.
"Reika? What happened to you?" Master Logos asked in a stunned tone of voice, noticing the rips that are "covering" Reika's uniform.
"I apologize, Master Logos, but….I encounter him." Reika said, her breathing being a bit heavy.
"What happened?" Master Logos asked, a serious expression appearing underneath his hood.
Flashback (start)
"His last sightings should be around here…." Reika muttered as she glanced around the snowy grounds.
"But why here though?" Reika thought, a look of cation appearing on her face.
"Huh? I didn't expect a Sword of Logos Mage to enter my hunting ground." A male voice suddenly spoke, causing Reika to quickly turn towards the source of the voice whilst taking out Noroshi.
"Oh? Not just an ordinary Mage, but one that wield a Holy Sword." The voice commented with an amused tone of voice.
Unfortunately, the messenger of the Sword of Logos couldn't see the person due to him hiding between the trees.
"What are you doing in the Spade Kingdom?" Reika asked in a calm tone of voice whilst pointing Noroshi at the unknown person.
Even though Reika can't see the person, she could see that he's tilting his head to the side.
"Can you not feel it? The gathering of Demonic Mana within these lands?" The unknown person asked, causing Reika to tighten her grip on Noroshi.
"So what are you going to do now? Turn back and run back to your squad?" The unknown person asked, a smirk appearing on his face.
This cause Reika to narrow her eyes at the unknown person.
This cause the unknown person to laugh darkly, seemingly knowing what sort of response the wielder of Noroshi is giving him
"If that's your response, then I might as well entertain you." The unknown person commented before taking out two objects.
Flashback (End)
"And then we fought, but with the outcome not being in my favour." Reika finished her report, making Master Logos nod his head slightly.
"I see..." Master Logos said, a small frown appearing on his face.
"So what are we going to do? Should I in form the Clover branch of the Sword of Logos about his presence?" Reika questioned, making Master Logos nod his head.
"Yes. Vice-Captain Ryo informed me that the Clover Kingdom have joined forces with the Heart Kingdom in order to invade the Spade Kingdom. So there's no doubt that they will encounter him." Master Logos explained, making Reika blink her eyes at the mention of "war".
"Should we seek Saber? He will be keen on defending is home country." Reika suggested, knowing that Asta will head into battle without question.
"That depends if we can find him and the others." Master Logos responded, a small frown appearing on his face.
The supreme leader of the Sword of Logos knew that Saber and his allies will go to Dragon's Ground in order to tame the chaotic Mana of Primitive Dragon, but it would seem that they never exit the Mana-Zone, or at the very least just vanish off the map.
"Is someone protecting their location?" Master Logos thought, musing over the idea.
"What?! He's not interested on teaming up?" Zoous asked in a shock tone of voice.
"It would seem so." Storious responded in a calm tone of voice, causing Zoous to make a "tch" sound.
"Not only he decided to steal the Phantom Beast set of Alter-Ride books, but he decided work with those three?" Zoous asked, his voice gaining an agitated edge to it.
Storious started to chuckle darkly.
"The gears are certainly starting to turn. Let's see how the events go, heading towards battle where the Devils will emerge from the underworld." Storious commented, a smirk appearing on his face.
And there we go, the Sword of Logos Magic Knights, plus Domi/Fillion, encountering the merchant Alyssa Celeborn, an OC idea that someone gave me a while back whilst Reika reported her encounter with a mysterious invididual to Master Logos...who maybe somewhat connected with the Megids.
In Gotchard:
1) The Alchemy Academy focused on capturing the final two Chemies, (3)Pakuraptor and (4)Ojilacath, turning into a competition, whilst a furious Gigist observed Rainbow Gotchard's first battle. The group attempted draw (3)Pakurator into the open, but no avail which eventually lead to Rin leaving, who then ran into Lachesis who is getting attacked by Clotho and Atropos. Back with the others, (1)Hopper-1 managed to lead the others to where (3)Pakuraptor is hiding, along with (4)Ojilacath, before Houtarou got teleported away and saw that Gigist has managed to capture (3)Pakuraptor, (4)Ojilcath and (EX)Nijigon, yet were able to escape.
2) Gotchard went on to fight Gigist, transfering the power of (EX)Nijigon into the Chemies and even transmutating the Chemies into Kamen Riders, before managing to defeat Gigist. Back at the Academy, Minato made the decision of wanting to change the Alchemy Association, due to their lack of actions in the past. Within the Ouroborous Realm, two beings emerged from the Door of Darkness.
And there we have, all 101 Chemies have been collected along with Gigist getting defeated. However, there is still Atropos and Clotho to deal with along with the apperance of the two beings, even Geryon has yet to make his reapperance. I'm glad that the series is pointing out the Association's lack of activity and something is about to be done about it.
Please review and until next time.
brave kid: Well, it looks like that everything is building up towards the Spade Kingdom invasion.
howard576:
1) Yes, there will be more elements in this story's version of the Spade Kingdom invasion.
2) Well, Houtarou's Final Form does grant him advance alchemy powers which include him transmutating Chemies together into their respective Rider forms.
3) With the movie, I'm surprise that it would be the gang traveling into the future instead of Gotchard-Daybreak, plus the movie's villian, traveling to the past.
4) Kamen Rider Gavv potentially being vampire-themed Rider does sound more appealing rather than a snack-theme.
