"This knight greets your highness," Eureka replied bowing towards him.

It's been two weeks since the meeting and the time for them to head out will be next week.

"I really am curious, what will you be doing during the war?" s.h.i.+gure asked for the nth time. After the meeting he had been asking this question to her whenever he had the time.

"Just as I have answered in the past times you asked me this, your highness. I wish to reveal it on the war itself. Revealing my plan in advance might backfire and cause us the war," Eureka replied respectfully.

"You really are tough, aren't you?" s.h.i.+gure replied.

"They're done. I shall take my leave your highness," Eureka said afterwards.

"What's done?"

"Something like a ticket to use your training ground, your highness."

"I don't quite understand, I would really like to see it."

"You are very much welcome, your highness."

s.h.i.+gure followed Eureka towards their training area.

"What happened here?" he was stupefied and speechless upon seeing his proud knights on the ground. There are ten of them and a girl was standing at their center.

*clang*

"Are you planning to kill a king? Put down your sword and take off your blindfold."

He only returned to reality upon hearing Eureka speak. And was once again shocked seeing Azusa in front of him and her sword close to him. It was stop midway by the Eureka's sword.

Azusa removed her blindfold and was fl.u.s.tered upon seeing the king.

"This knight deeply apologizes your highness," Azusa bowed down upon realizing what she had done.

"Please forgive this knight for raising her sword towards you."

"I think it's fine. You were stopped anyway," s.h.i.+gure couldn't help but feel embarra.s.sed. He was the king but he actually didn't realize that an attack was coming his way.

"Your a speed ability user?" he couldn't help but ask. It is known that Akihiro had the magma. He already asked Yukimura and found out that his ability is fire, the same goes for his son, Raven. But he haven't seen or ask Azusa about hers.

"Yes, your highness," Azusa replied still fl.u.s.tered of what she could have done.

s.h.i.+gure couldn't help but to look at Eureka, who's currently standing next to him without any emotion.

he couldn't help but think, if Azusa used speed, he could tell that not all could stop her attack. He was caught off guard that he wasn't able to stop her, but he can tell how well she can use her ability. And yet this girl next to him stopped Azusa like it was nothing.

"So what happened here?" he decided not to comment about it and instead asked.

"That is..."

(Flashback)

"You've improved a lot, let's go," Eureka said before walking ahead.

"Where will we go? We haven't trained enough today though," Azusa couldn't help but ask as she followed her.

"We're going to use their training area."

"But they didn't want us to."

"We can bargain."

Upon arrival, they were naturally stopped.

"Let's bargain then. 10 of you against the two of us, if we win, you'll allow us to train here. If we lose we'll leave and never attempt to enter this area until we return to our own kingdom," Eureka said causing a commotion.

The knights felt like they were being belittled and said that two is more than enough.

After agreeing, those two were defeated by Azusa alone, with their pride the northern knights said that what Eureka asked was for the ten of them. Eureka replied with all of them at the same time because their time will be wasted.

"You're too conceited!!" one roared and tried attacking her. Azusa then defended for her.

"Use your blindfold and fight against them all," Eureka murmured towards her.

Azusa followed which caused the northern knights to be infuriated. They attacked at the same time towards the two of them. But it was only Azusa who was defending and attacking.

Not far from them.

"Aren't you going to help them?" one of Raven's companion asked.

"No, they can handle themselves just fine," Raven replied watching.

"Hey where's the other?" another suddenly asked causing them to look closely at the battle.

Eureka was no longer there, it was only Azusa who was fighting.

"She really is strict in training," Raven couldn't help but comment.

(End of Flashback)

"And you defeated them just now?" s.h.i.+gure, for the third time, was shocked.

"Yes your highness. I did, just now."

"And while you are using a blindfold?"

"Yes, your highness. It was part of my training using dual swords."

"Training? You're still training?"

"I am, your highness."

s.h.i.+gure once again thought.

"Who's training you?" he couldn't help but ask.

"Uhmm it's Eureka, your highness. The one standing beside you," Azusa replied with uncertainty.

"You are!!" s.h.i.+gure exclaimed looking at Eureka.

"I must apologize that it is indeed I, who's helping her, your highness," nit just s.h.i.+gure but even those close by and those Azusa just defeated was shocked.

"Just who are you?" s.h.i.+gure couldn't help but ask.

"A knight of Aurora kingdom, your highness," Eureka replied.

"I know of that but where did you come from?"

"Aurora Kingdom, your highness."

"No, what I mean is-" s.h.i.+gure stopped and decided not to ask any longer. She is not a part of the kingdom his leading. It's not appropriate for him to question her.

"Then would you teach us how you train her?" he asked instead.

"But your highness. The contract is not yet signed. If I tell you wouldn't that mean that I am helping a possible enemy?" Eureka replied.

s.h.i.+gure thought before replying, "Then, if the contract was signed, could we add this training method in the content?"

"Then we too will have additional requirements."

"What would that be?"

Eureka asked him to come closer and whispered in his ear. s.h.i.+gure's eyes grew wide, "That, you, but... *sighs* I'll have to ask about that first before we add it to the contract."

"You seemed to know something, your highness. No it's not seem, you do know something," Eureka replied.

"We can talk about that on another time."

"I shall pa.s.s that talk to our king, your highness. I am nothing but just a knight following his orders."

"Then I shall speak with him about it, *looks at his knights* these two knights have proved themselves, I permit them to enter the training area, and no one is allowed to stop them."

He gave one final nod to Azusa and Eureka before turning away.

"Did you do this on purpose Eureka? To be able to add whatever you asked of the king to the contract?" Azusa couldn't help but ask after s.h.i.+gure left.

"Who knows," Eureka replied vaguely before walking towards the training area.

The knights who have been defeated by Azusa could only look at her with eyes full of hatred. But as Azusa followed her, they moved aside giving them way.

"That Eureka is indeed amazing Raven, but I still say that Azusa is more amazing to actually wield two swords."

"Why don't you try fighting against Eureka for you to know the answers to your questions? You've heard it, it was her who trained Azusa," Raven replied, these guys kept asking him about the other two and to be honest it's pretty tiring already.

"Nah, we'll just watch for now. Even our king started taking her seriously. Of course we know that she really is something else. We're just biased towards the other."

Raven could only sigh and enter the training area as well. He actually used that same method of defeating the other knights to enter. He succeeded but he feels like it's not yet enough.

"Eureka," as he approach them.

Azusa and Eureka looked back at him.

"Will you train me as well?"

This question shocked everyone around. They have acknowledged Raven's strength and his control over his ability but they never thought that he would ask Eureka, whom they deemed as the weakest for being a zero, to train him.

"It would be very tough," Eureka replied.

"I can handle it," Raven answered back.

"Then I shall prepare it for now, we can start tomorrow," she replied before facing Azusa, "As for you, I want you to familiarize with the aura's around you. Coming to their training area will help you as most of their knights are using it. And their equipment here are quite good as well. Train with them while you still have the chance."

Both Raven and Azusa acknowledged.

"I shall be going for now then," Eureka said before leaving.

"Just who is she?" those around and listening to their conversations couldn't help but ask the two of them.

"Someone who is far more important than we are. So I suggest that you stop belittling her, you might end up regretting it in the future," Raven replied causing more confusion to everyone.
