Early the next morning he noticed how some knights are outside the tent where Eureka and the other two was. At the same time Azusa came out with a basin of water.

"Good morning, your highness. Eureka is currently having a high fever it seems," Azusa respectfully replied.

"It seems?"

"There would be times where her temperature would suddenly drop so we have no idea on what's going on."

They entered the tent, where a doctor is checking Eureka. Akihiro then faced those outside.

"This knight is quite sensitive, is it possible for all of you to leave this tent for now?" Akihiro asked.

"Ah, yes, your highness. We apologize for the inconvenience," they replied respectfully.

"What's wrong with her?" Akihiro then asked the doctor inside.

"It seems that her burn from last night caused her fever today. But regarding the drop of her temperature even I couldn't explain it, your highness," the doctor replied.

"I think it's best to leave her as is for now," Raven said from the sideline, "We should stopr fretting around her, she won't have any rest if we do."

"I suppose you're right. Well then thank you doctor for checking on her," Akihiro said.

The doctor bowed and left the tent soon after s.h.i.+gure came.

"I've heard she's sick."

"It seems that she is, we were just planning on leaving her alone for now. With no one around her, it'll allow her to rest even more," Akihiro replied.

"The war will start in 3 days, will she?" s.h.i.+gure couldn't help but ask.

"I will be fine your highness, three days is more than enough for me," Eureka suddenly replied.

"Your awake," Azusa exclaimed.

"I've been ever since you started panicking beside me, my condition is normal, I could get over it in a few hours. So please just let me be for now," Eureka replied without opening her eyes.

Akihiro and s.h.i.+gure left first, followed by Raven then by Azusa. A few moments after everyone left, Eureka fell asleep.

*You do know, it's dangerous. You have to concentrate.*

*I know, and I am*

*You're not and you almost died once again*

*I didn't the conflict was just too much*

*That's what we were saying all this time, getting stronger also means that it would be more dangerous.*

*I know, I'll be careful even more.*

"How is she?" late that night, Azusa asked Raven in a silent voice.

"She looks better than this morning," Raven replied.

The two of them were actually guarding her from the outside, from time to time checking on her.

"Is it because she had been sleeping outside this past few days and then the burn from last night?" Azusa couldn't help but ask.

"Could be, but there are other factors as well."

"What could those be?"

"Who knows, she always keep things to herself after all."

Azusa couldn't help but think.

"Do you want to spar?" Raven suddenly asked.

"With you?" Azusa exclaimed.

"You've been under her guidance for the past months that we are here."

"Okay then, please spar with me."

The two of them stood up and went to an open s.p.a.ce not close but not far as well from where Eureka is.

Azusa pulled out her two swords, the same goes for Raven.

"Spar with me with your ability," Raven said before they started.

"Will you be using yours as well?"

"No, I want to train myself as well. I've witnessed your improvement, so I want to try and spar with you."

"Very well then," Azusa replied and started moving.

Raven thought as he defend from her first attack.

Using his sword, he started defending on Azusa's continues attack. Azusa on the other side is aggressive, with her speed she didn't stop attacking. Using everything that Eureka had taught her.

Raven moved and suddenly appeared behind her after her next attack, he slashed down,

*CLANG*

But Azusa turned just in tipe to parry this attack.

"*smirks* If this is the past you, you would have been sent tumbling already."

"Right back at you, you were never fazed even with my speed and improvement in using the swords."

They continued talking without stopping their attacks. Not noticing how more and more started watching their practice.

After half an hour of non stop attack and defense they finally jumped away from each other.

*CLAP CLAP CLAP*

They suddenly heard an applause.

"That was truly amazing," on knight shouted.

"We really change our minds about you," another one added.

"If this alliance would push through we wish to train with you, the time you first came until today what we noticed are pure improvements. You never stopped training even when we stop you from using our facilities, we applaud you for that," Gato then said. He was one of those who were watching the two of them from the start.

"We thank sir Gato for the praise," Raven respectfully said as he and Azusa bowed down.

"If it's alright with you, is it possible for some of us to spar with you as well?" he then said as he looked at Yukimura who was actually watching with them.

"It's fine for me, a friendly match is not bad," Yukimura replied as he approaches.

"Then it would be my honor to spar with you sir Yukimura," Gato then said.

Everyone stayed away and created an encirclement.

"Ability?" Yukimura asked.

"No, sword fight is more then enough. Plus our abilities compliment each other, we might end up making a ruckus that would make our kings mad," Gato replied with a shrug.

"Very well then," Ykimura answered as he pulled his sword.

*CLANG*

Their first bout caused a strong pressure towards those around them.

"Wh How strong!!" one knight exclaimed.

Gato then slashed his spear upwards, but Yukimura was able to jump backwards evading this attack, upon jumping out of the spears reach, he moved faster and slashed forward. Gato on the other hand pulled his spear back and parried this attack. He pushed Yukimura away before jumping up and attacking Yukimura from above, Yukimura disappeared from the ground and appeared behind him. Gato disappeared as well and appeared beside Yukimura slas.h.i.+ng his spear downwards. Yukimura twisted his body and used the force from Gato's attack to push himself away from Gato.

These continuous attack and defense left all those who are watching in awe.

"They really deserve their t.i.tles as head knights. I can't even follow their other movements," one knight commented.

Their generals are watching closely studying the every move of the two head knights. The same goes for Raven and Azusa.

"You really are amazing," Gato couldn't help but comment after a few more bouts.

"Back at you, it's been awhile since I last experienced this kind of sparring," Yukimura replied smiling.

"Have you tried sparring with that girl?" Gato asked as he placed his spear in his back.

"Not yet, but I'm planning," Yukimura replied as he placed his sword back to it's sheath.

"You seemed to be looking forward to it," Gato commented looking at Yukimura's face.

"You too, you seemed like you want to have a go with her," Yukimura replied.

"To think she had rendered unconscious half of our troops, some of them are even captains, even though they are drunk, that is still a fit no one had ever reached in our kingdom," Gato answered honestly.

"Even we were shocked, we have seen her strength a lot of times, but to actually have a fight with so many but to have no choice other than to render them unconscious even I am amazed, that is something very difficult to do," Yukimura commented as well.

"Do I have to be jealous now father? Or do I have to ask mom if she should be jealous?" Raven asked, they've heard this conversation after they approached them.

"You brat, you're becoming more and more disrespectful nowadays, do you want me to add more clothes to what you are wearing now?" Yukimura reprimanded.

Azusa couldn't help but to sigh to herself. She indeed improved but she is still miles away from Raven and Eureka.

"In the first place, you guys speak like the one you're talking about is not sick right now," Raven said afterwards.

"We were talking about the future chances not today of course," Yukimura answered back.

"It's fine even if it's today though," another voice came from behind those who are watching.

Everyone looked back, there stood Eureka who looked like she was not even on the verge of dying a while ago.

"Eureka!! Are you alright?" Azusa exclaimed approaching her.

"I am."

"But you were so hot awhile ago."

"Indeed, a while ago."

"Then you shouldn't take us seriously. You should have proper rest before you spar with us," Yukimura sighed.

"In the end, since when have you been awake?" Raven asked.

"Since the two of you started sparring, then everyone came and watched you," Eureka answered.

"You've been there all this time?"

"Yes I have."
