Searching for the missing Holy Sword

"What?" Tetsuo asked in a very quiet tone of voice.

As of right now, the three Magic Knights of the Sword of Logos, the representative(s) of the Heart Kingdom and the merchant have returned to the Clover branch and informed the others of what happened about encountering the much stronger Shimis.

However the wielder of Suzume seems to be focused on other matters.

"I'm…..sorry…?" Rin asked in a weak tone of voice.

"SORRY?! Is that all you got to say?!" Tetsuo shouted, causing everyone in the room to jump with Rin herself jumping higher as she unintentionally activated her magic.

"You allowed a Holy Sword to get stolen…..RIGHT OF YOUR HANDS!" Tetsuo shouted, continuing his rant.

"….Mr Daishinji…..certainly is very protective of the Holy Swords….." Alyssa commented in a low, yet blank, tone of voice.

"Yes, indeed." Reika responded, also in a blank tone of voice.

"I don't want to imagine the experience that Hayate is going through right now." Tetsuo said whilst shaking his head before becoming quiet.

"Have you calm down?" Ryo asked, becoming cautious in case the wielder of Sezume started to go on another ranting spree.

Tetsuo took a deep breath and releasing it, letting his body become relax…..sort of.

"Yes." Tetsuo responded simply, causing everyone to sweat-drop.

"Can we focus on the main problem…..?" Domi asked whilst Rin, who is on the verge of tears, is getting comforted by Noelle and Donna.

Tetsuo was about to open his mouth, but didn't got to say anything as Ryo placed a hand on his shoulder and shook his head slightly.

"Shimis are just the foot soldiers of the Megid, thus do not pose a threat. However, these Shimis that us four fought are completely different. Not only do they possess more Mana than they should, but they also seemed to be more strategic." Reika explained, making everyone to nod their heads.

"Could it be that Storious is trying a new tactic?" Noelle offered, making Reika tilt her head slightly.

"That could be a possibility, but with the reappearance of that person, that may be different." Reika commented, causing mostly everyone to become confuse.

"That person?" Rintaro asked, raising an eye-brow.

"A Megid that operates by himself rather than with the three Megid Generals, known as Cupiditas." Reika explained, making everyone else widened their eyes.

"So a Megid like Desast then." Donna guessed, making the vice-captain of the Sword of Logos.

"Yes. However, Cupiditas hasn't been seen for a long period of time." Reika said before gaining a frown on her face

"With war just on the horizon, it would seem that Cupiditas decided to make his reappearance and have some "fun"." Reika commented, causing everyone to become troubled.

"So why do you think he stolen a Holy Sword?" Rin asked, she seemingly look better.

"That's something we need to figure out, but Cupiditas is someone with an avarice and selfish nature, so do not take him lightly." Reika explained, making everyone to nod their heads.

"I'll start on tracking down the missing Holy Sword." Tetsuo said, making Reika nod her head in agreement.


"Nothing!" Tetsuo exclaimed in an exasperated tone of voice.

For the last hour, the wielder of Sezume has been attempting to tract the Mana signal of Hayate, but all attempts have ended up in failure.

"Is Cupiditas…..hiding the Mana signal of Hayate?" Tetsuo thought, starting to become worried.

It was then that a thought appeared in Tetsuo's head.

"Maybe…." The wielder of Sezume muttered as he stood up and headed out of the meeting room before collecting something from his workshop.


"You want to know the direction that the Megid went?" Rintaro asked in a confused tone of voice.

As of right now, the wielder of Sezume headed to where the wielder of Nagare is, which just happens to be in Liberation, being joined by Donna.

"Yes. I wasn't successful in tracking down the Mana signal of Hayate, but I may be able to narrow down possible locations of where the Megid could be hiding." Tetsuo explained whilst holding a map of the Clover Kingdom.

"Do you think that's effective? The Megid could just ran in a random direction just to make some distance between them and Rintaro and the others." Donna pointed out whilst raising an eye-brow.

"I need to work with something!" Tetsuo responded in a slight high pitch tone of voice, making both Rintaro and Donna jump.

"Well, we fought the Megid around here" The wielder of Nagare muttered as he pointed at a spot of the map.

"And I think that the Megid went in this direction after stealing Hayate..." Rintaro said in a slight unsure tone of voice as he draw a line from the spot that he was pointing at.

"So they could possibly still be in the Common Realm." Tetsuo muttered with a small frown on his face.

"There are a few settlements in that direction." The wielder of Ikazuchi pointed out as she studied the area surrounding "line" that Rintaro "drawn".

"I suppose it's worth searching the areas. I need to discuss it with Vice-Captain Ryo and Miss Shindai." Tetsuo said, a small smile appearing on his face, the wielder of Noroshi having decided to remain with the Clover branch of the Sword of Logos for the time bring.


"I would advise being cautious with this search." Ryo said whilst crossing his arms.

"Huh?" Everyone said, becoming confused.

"Marx has been sending out reports about the behaviour of the Cover Kingdom's citizens, with them more focusing on the citizens of the Common Realm and the Forsaken Realm. They are feeling agitated." Ryo explained, yet this cause everyone to become more confuse.

"The starting point of the agitation is during the elf invasion where many citizens were either killed or injured. This also includes the destruction of entire settlements or them becoming heavily damaged." Ryo further explained, causing everyone to glance at each other.

"That's unfair. The Magic Knights were low on numbers with many being possessed." Rin said whilst pouting slightly.

"It's something that can't be helped. So due to the events surrounding the elf invasion, the moral of those with lower status are very low….which has further decreased due to that rumour that Master Logos has been spreading concerning about the Magic Parliament's involvement in the creation of Asta's Primitive Dragon form." Ryo said whilst glancing towards Reika.

"What? The Magic Parliament did the work of creating the vessel for Primitive Dragon." Reika commented, making Ryo sigh slightly.

"So the lower-class citizens are also dissatisfied with the upper-class as they see the existence of Primitive Dragon as a means of controlling them." Donna summarised, making the wielder of Gekido to nod his head sadly.

"Your country certainly has messed up system." Fillon commented, snorting slightly.

"Hey!" Noelle exclaimed in an angry tone of voice.

"What? The Clover Kingdom is ruled by a personal-opinion based system. It's only the Wizard King and the Magic Knights that have proper respect for the citizens of the Clover Kingdom, and even now its starting to wane." Fillon explained, making Noelle starting to growl.

"Okay!" Ryo said in a slight high pitch tone of voice in the attempt to prevent a verbal fight to break out.

"For now, we're search the "line" that the two-headed dog Megid ran in and maybe get some information about there whereabouts." The wielder of Gekido explained, making everyone to nod their heads.


"And here we are, Tiulyu." Noelle said as she, Donna and Tetsuo stood on the outskirts of Tiulyu, the town being on the "line" that Rintaro "drawn".

The others are also searching the locations on the "line".

"Well, here go. Just remember to be friendly." Donna said she and the others began to move further into town whilst mentally preparing herself for the possible behaviours that the citizens will have towards them.

As the three Sword of Logos Magic Knights started to pass through the first set of buildings, they saw a small group of people chatting.

"Excuse me, bu-" Tetsuo began to say, catching the attention of the people, but when they saw the Magic Knight robes that he, Donna and Noelle are wearing, they immediately moved away.

"….." The wielder of Sezume became silent.

"It looks like things will be much harder." Donna commented, making Noelle nod her head in agreement.

The three Sword of Logos Magic Knights attempted to speak to the citizens of Tiulyu, but like the first set of people, they immediately backed away.

After a while, which eventually was the time when the sun started to sink in the sky, the three Sword of Logos Magic Knights regrouped, having decided to split up in the attempt to gather information more quickly.

"No luck." Noelle said in a depressed tone of voice.

"Me to. I knew that the citizens will keep their distance from us, but there could have been at least one person who would say something instead of fleeing." Donna said in a rejected tone of voice.

"This is getting us nowhere." Tetsuo said, starting to become agitated due to the lack of information.

"You three seemed troubled." A voice commented, causing three Sword of Logos Magic Knights to jump slightly before turning towards the source of the voice to see an elderly woman with blond hair.

"Yes. We've been attempted to gather information about an object that have been stolen from us, but the people here have been unwilling to cooperate." Donna explained, making the elderly woman hum slightly.

"I suppose that makes sense with their opinions on the Magic Knights." The elder woman commented with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"What sort of information do you want? My name is Maggie by the way." The known Maggie introduced herself.

The Sword of Logos Magic Knights became relieved that they managed to find someone who is willing to speak to them.

"Like what Donna said, we're looking for an object that was stolen from us, a sword. Have you seen or heard anything suspicious happening?" Noelle explained before Tetsuo could say anything.

"A sword? Heh. I suppose that makes sense, since your emblem is that of two swords." Maggie commented before tilting her head slightly.

"Well. I'm afraid that I can't say very much, but a while back, I did spot Dazu and Bow speaking to someone, someone who isn't a citizen of Tiulyu. I don't know what they're speaking about, but the unknown male gave Dazu something before disappearing." Maggie explained, causing Noelle, Donna and Tetsuo to glance at each other, not expecting the piece of information about the two people, but the three of them have a small idea who the unknown male could be.

"Did you saw what the object looked like?" Donna asked, she and the others becoming curious.

However, Maggie shook her head.

"I didn't saw what the actual object looked like, but it was roughly the same size as one's hand." Maggie explained, causing the three Sword of Logos Magic Knights to glance at each other again, a small idea appearing in their heads.

"Can you explain about those two people you mentioned?" Tetsuo asked, making Maggie nod her head.

"Bow is the town's apothecary, acting as the town's healer due to our lack of access of proper healing magic, and Dazu is a friend of hers who was married until her husband and his mother died during those attacks a few weeks back. Dazu was devastated when her husband died, those two were a happy married couple. Things would be different if that red-armoured figure appeared sooner." Maggie explained, saying the last part with a saddened expression on her face.

The three Sword of Logos Magic Knights perk up at this.

"A red-armoured figure?" Noelle asked, making Maggie nod her head.

"Yes. When Tiulyu was attacked by three Purple Orca Magic Knights, he appeared and fought them. However, most of the town was heavily damaged with Dazu's husband and mother-in-law dying in their burning house. A few days later, Dazu and Bow encountered that unknown male." Maggie explained, making Noelle bit her lips slightly whilst imagining what Asta was feeling at the time when he saw the destruction that has occurred before he arrived.

"Can you tell us where the houses of Bow and Dazu? We would like to ask them questions about that unknown male." Tetsuo explained, causing Maggie to turn towards the forest area beside Tiulyu.

"Bow's house is in that forest over there. Dazu would probably be with her, the two of them spend a lot of time together…...but now that I think about it, a few other people have started to spend time around them after meeting with the unknown male." Maggie explained, making Tetsuo and the other two to become concerned.

"Thank you very much, Miss Maggie. We'll go and visit them." The wielder of Sezume explained, making Maggie nod her head.

"Good luck." Maggie said before starting to walk away from the three Sword of Logos Magic Knights who remained in silence for a few seconds before Noelle spoke.

"Is Cupiditas fully involved or is using those two as a medium of some sorts?" The silver hair girl asked as she gave the other two a perplexed look.

"Good question. But remember what Miss Reika said, Cupiditas is someone who possess an avarice and selfish nature." Donna explained, making Noelle nod her head.

"Come on. Lets go and visit this Bow woman." Tetsuo said in a serious tone of voice whilst a part of him is starting to become excited at the prospect of retrieving Hayate.

The three Sword of Logos started to their journey and after a while, are now standing in front of a house.

"Well, here we go…." Donna muttered as she mentally prepared herself.

Noelle and Tetsuo are standing a bit further back, mainly for the wielder of Argent-Couronne to prevent the wielder of Sezume from dashing forwards and demanding Hayate.

The wielder of Ikazuchi knocked on the door.

However, their was no response after a few seconds of silence.

Donna glanced over her shoulder with an unsure expression on her face.

Tetsuo decided to walk forwards, with Noelle literally getting dragged behind him and placed an ear on the wooden wall of the house and motion to Donna to knock again.

The wielder of Ikazuchi knocked again and Tetsuo attempted to hear anything on the other side, but eventually shook his head.

"No ones inside." Tetsuo said, causing the other two to become disappointed.

"Should we head back and ask around?" Noelle asked as she glanced towards Tiulyu.

"I hardly doubt we gain any new information. Everyone avoided us and it was only the old lady who gave us any info in the first place." Tetsuo responded as peered through a window but saw nothing of any interest.

"So we just heading back then?" Donna asked as she glanced at the wielder of Sezume who turned his attention away from the house.

"I suppose so." Tetsuo responded with a slight depressed expression on his face, becoming disappointed at the lack of progress…..plus becoming worried at the "well being" of Hayate.

As if responding to Tetsuo's state of depression, Noelle's communication device started to glow.

"Hm? It must be from the others." Noelle commented as she took out the communication device and turned it on.

However, instead of the other members of the Sword of Logos squad responding, an image of Sekke appeared.

"Hello! I have a mess-" Sekke began to say before Noelle swiftly switched off the communication device.

"….Why did you just cut off the call?" Tetsuo responded in a confused tone of voice.

"That insect of a Magic Knight isn't worth speaking to." Noelle responded, remembering how during the time at Nean where the children got kidnapped, Sekke wasn't helpful, poorly attempting to flit with the silver hair girl instead of doing his job of relaying messages properly.

The communication device started to glow again and after a few seconds of staring at the Magic Item, Noelle decided to switch it on again…...revealing Sekke.

"Let me speak to him." Donna said in a quick tone of voice as the wielder of Ikazuchi prevented the wielder of Argent-Couronne from switching off the communication device.

"What is your message?" Donna asked whilst Noelle fumed slightly.

"I-is that blacksmith of your squad with you? The message is for him." Sekke explained, feeling a bit jumpy at how the communication suddenly switched off from his end.

This cause Donna to raise an eye-brow whilst she and Noelle glance towards Tetsuo who started to become curious.

"This the blacksmith of the Sword of Logos speaking." Tetsuo said after Donna past the communication device to him.

"Some on the Silver Eagle Magic Knight squads heard a worded message spreading about whilst on patrol which contains something about a sword that a group of people managed to obtain." Sekke explained, causing Tetsuo's eyes to perk up.

"Who are they and where are they?!" The wielder of Sezume asked, fiery look appearing in his eyes.

This cause Sekke to become startled.

"I haven't been given the full details, but you and the others are to report to the main headquarters of the Magic Knights. That's all I got to say, bye!" Sekke explained before cutting of the call.

"Hey-!" Tetsuo shouted, becoming annoyed that the Green Mantis Magic Knight simply decided to end the call.

"Well. That's some good news, right." Donna pointed out whilst Tetsuo released a deep sigh whilst handing the communication device.

"I suppose so. Lets get going." Tetsuo said before he and the others started to make their way out of the forestry area.


And there we go, the Sword of Logos Magic Knights searching for their missing Holy Sword, after Tetsuo traumatized Rin that is, but ended up with little results before being contacted by Sekke. We also learn more about Cupiditas, mainly his personailty.

In Gotchard:

1) Whilst Gigist and Gaelijah sensed Gaiman's defeat, they are confused as to why his power hasn't came back to them before Geryon appeared with him claiming that his ambition is still the same along with intending to have the two Dark Kings under his control. With the Alchemy Academy, they recieved a message from Kyoka, saying that strange sightings have been found, yet this cause everyone to become confuse due to the fact that they have already collected all 101 Chemies.

2) Houtarou, Spanner and Sabimaru investigate the area where they ran into Sabimaru's brother, Kenichi, who showed them the hidden Kongo Laboratory where they met the director, Mami, who explained that the laboratory focuses on transmuation of a complete soul, beyond temporary life. Mami explained that the research led to create a 102nd Chemy, to which Spanner pointed out that the creations of new Chemies is strictly forbidden.

3) The three searched the laboratory, yet came up with nothing before teh 102nd Chemy made itself known, who possess a unstable form as it flicker from a turtle-like form into a tank. Whilst they managed to defeat and capture the Chemy, with the Malgam host being Mami, the Chemy, known as Kamedoom, managed to escape the Chemy card.

So they we have it, the alchemists creating their own Chemy, since all the first 101 Chemies were created by Gigist, even though this is outlawed. I'm kind of glad that the series is showing that there are other alchemists who are dissatisfied with the Alchemy Assosiation and broke away, although it was mainly to prevent the research from falling into Geryon's hands, someone who Mami seems to have a history with.

So we finally have an offical image for Kamen Rider Gavv who possess the rumoured purple armour, which has blue and yellow mixed into it, and the food-theme rumour is true, with the type of food being sweets/Gummies. For the Driver, it is simple known as Gavv which resembles a mouth where the gimmick of the series, objects called a Poppin Gummy that have a monster-aspect to them, is placed with the mouth and the handle, which looks similar to the Build-Driver, is then turned.

Please review and until next time.

Howard576:

1) We'll just have to wait and see what will to what the Devil-Banishers/Devil-Believers have in store for Hayate.

2) After their interaction with Geryon, I'd imagine that Gigist would start becoming cautious around Geryon whilst Gaelijah...she still need to make a move despite not being interested in "taking the throne".

3) I suppose that's true, but when Gotchard-Daybreak talked about the future he's came from, he said that Geryon has brought the world to the edge of extinction. An idea is that Germain's subconsciouness somehow took over Geryon's line of thinking, causing him to act differently.
