She's That Knight Known As Zero 65 Assessing

"So he actually noticed," s.h.i.+gure sighed after hearing Akihiro's story.

"FATHER!!" just like that, someone suddenly called them.

"Theo!!" s.h.i.+gure called back.

"I've heard the news, you sent me to solve some problems on our northern border just as you went to war. The war ended peacefully but then traitors emerged? Are you alright? How about Mother? I've heard it was her family that started the rebellion," Theo said looking straight at his father's face.

"Relax, we are all fine. Did you just return?" s.h.i.+gure replied patting his shoulder.

"I have, and I heard all the news while I was entering the gate."

"It's alright, we are all fine," s.h.i.+gure then a.s.sured him.

Theo's brows furrowed, he then punch s.h.i.+gure in the stomach, "Wh"

"That's for shouldering everything on your own. I am here. I am your son. Of course I can help you, but you even left me in the dark. It's obvious that Gato is no longer loyal to you, but you still waited for him to change. It's been years of course he no longer have any thoughts of changing. Mother as well, you should have faced her sooner, then both of you wouldn't be hurting all those times. Do you think that because I'm still not that old I wouldn't notice all these? Don't treat me like a child, I too wanted to fight along side you not just behind you being protected," Theo suddenly burst out.

s.h.i.+gure, though shocked at first, smiled and pulled him into a hug, "I wonder just how blind I was? I didn't even notice that you have matured already."

"Wh Stop this, it's embarra.s.sing," Theo said but he didn't push his father away.

"Thank you, from now on I promise to have a talk with you regarding what's happening in our kingdom, I shall confide to you as well whether something is bothering me," s.h.i.+gure looked him in the eye and said.

"You can count on me," Theo announced.

"Ah, sorry you have to see that," s.h.i.+gure then faced Akihiro.

"No, not at all, it was a happy feeling actually. Seeing you two being so close."

s.h.i.+gure remembered about Akihiro and Haruka's past, "That's right, you..."

"Don't worry about that, and I'm serious," Akihiro knowing what's going on in his mind then said.

"Take care of her," s.h.i.+gure then said seriously.

"I will, this time I surely will," Akihiro said with conviction.

"What's going on?" Theo asked, curious of what they are talking about.

"Your aunt, Haruka will be joining them back to Aurora Kingdom," s.h.i.+gure answered.

"Oh, she's finally going home?" Theo asked making s.h.i.+gure and Akihiro to look at him confused.

"What? This is no longer her home after all, the people she really loved, despite her not knowing anything is over there," Theo answered seeing their looks.

"You know?" s.h.i.+gure asked.

"Of course I do, I heard you once mention it to her, then I had my own research. I never really met her as a child after all so I look it up and found out almost the same things as you did."

"You cunning child," s.h.i.+gure said, but at the same time his eyes shows joy. He is truly happy that his son is Theo.

*****

"Do you want me to help you search?" as Eureka checked another store the next day, she heard someone speak to her.

"I'm fine thank you, I can search just fine," she replied.

"Come on, I'm from here anyway, I know more places than you," Theo answered back, he saw her leaving this morning so he decided to follow her.

"It doesn't matter whether you are from here or if I'm not, when you find the right one, you'll know it is indeed the one."

"But sometimes you still needed some guidance in order to find the right one. It won't just save you time but at the same time you will have some help in a.s.sessing what you are looking for."

Eureka stopped and faced him, "I see, then would you guide me?"

"Trust me," Theo said as he lead the way.

He never stopped until they reached the bottom of one mountain.

"We're here," Theo said as he opened the door for her.

"Oh, your highness, it's nice to see you here," the store owner said upon seeing his customers.

"Good day, Fumito. I just brought a friend."

"And a beautiful one at that, I might say. It's a pleasure to be acquainted with such a beautiful lady," Fumito extended his hand to Eureka.

"The pleasure is mine," Eureka accepted his hand and shake it.

"So how may I help you? What type of weapon do you want?"

"Two swords please."

"A dual sword master, impressive, truly impressive. Please wait a minute, I'll take all my swords out."

He then left and entered one of the rooms. After a few moments he came out carrying 20 swords.

"Please choose what your heart desire."

"Thank you."

Eureka placed her hand on each and every swords he brought out.

"Hmmm," Fumito watched her closely.

A few minutes pa.s.sed but Eureka haven't chosen one yet. Theo was not bored though, he found her manner of searching amusing. People would usually unsheathe the swords and look at their blade, but Eureka is different, she touches them from hilt to the other end, before she unsheathe the sword and touch its blade.

"I'll take this two," she finally decided after two hours.

"You really know what to choose I might say, of all the swords I brought out. These two have the most aura on them."

"I might say, you yourself is a good sword smith," Eureka complimented in return.

"Nice choice, a sky blue one and a red one," Theo said in turn.

"I don't think, this lady over here care about the color though," Fumito said meaningfully.

Eureka faced him.

"Of course I have all kinds of customers," Fumito knowing her look answered.

"You have your sword right? Spar with me," Eureka didn't comment any further and asked Theo in turn.

"I would be very grateful for such opportunity," Theo remarked happily. He never had the chance to spar with her for the past month they stayed here, either she was busy or it was him who's busy. But he heard from the other knights how strong she was.

"My backyard is open for you to spar, you can use it for all you want," Fumito offered.

"Thank you," Eureka said as she followed Theo to the backyard.

Eureka pulled one of her sword first.

"You're not using both?" Theo was baffled.

"It's fine," Eureka answered as she attacked.

both Theo and Fumito were shocked at her speed.

*CLANG*

Theo thought as he continued defending.

At times Theo would be attacking but a lot of times he is on the defending side.

"Eh?" both Theo and Fumito were shocked,

Before any of them realized, Eureka was using her second sword already. Eureka then stopped attacking and was in deep thought.

"What's wrong?" Theo asked seeing her demeanor.

"Could you use your ability, your a wind right?"

"Yes that's right, you want me to spar with you using my ability? Ain't that unfair?"

"It's alright just do it."

"If you insist."

Theo then used his wind to boost his speed at the same boost the attack of his sword, and just as Eureka defended from his attack his wind manifested exchanging with his sword's place, this time he attacked her from below, Eureka jumped backwards avoiding his attack. Theo didn't stop he once again pushed forward surrounding his sword with his wind creating a more chaotic attack, Eureka once again jumped backwards then to the side, she never stopped jumping circling around Theo, she then went in and attack his back but Theo s.h.i.+elded himself with his wind at the same time swinging his sword backwards, just as Eureka was about to jump back he made his sword longer by adding his wind, causing it to hit Eureka who used her second sword to defend.

"You seemed pretty serious in this spar," Fumito commented seeing Theo's seriousness.

"Because he is, are you planning to kill me?" Eureka commented after moving farther away from Theo.

"Huh? Isn't it that it is you who's planning to kill me? Of course I have to be serious, I don't want to die in a simple sparring," Theo replied.

He could actually feel killing intent from her, at first he was just playing around but then he felt how her every move became sharper. He had no choice but to focus even more.

"If I didn't you would have been playing around instead of taking this sparring seriously," Eureka replied returning her sword to its sheathe.

"That's..."

"You seemed to be trying something with him, I wonder what that is?" Fumito asked in return.

"Have you ever considered using a different weapon?" Eureka then asked Theo.

"No, I had been using the sword ever since I was young," Theo answered.

"You can still use it as your secondary weapon, but why don't you use a different one as your primary?"

"And what kind of weapon should I be using then?"

"Bow and Arrow, I think that would suit you better," Eureka replied.
