She's That Knight Known as Zero 218 Pregnant!!

Their fear that even the conspirators have survived vanished for they didn't see even the shadow of these people. Despite that, Akihiro still sent some knights to search for all these people.

Eureka was the one who killed them but Akihiro is unsure if even that were changed. Then everyone was once again given a surprise for just as they were searching for these conspirators they met those who were kidnapped years ago.

The knights who were on patrol in the forest that disappeared. This was a six month case before Eureka stopped it. The first time they saw her looking like the death god. The first time she really showed her strength.

They all look baffled when they were found in the forest, when they were brought before Akihiro they had explained that on the same day of their disappearance was also the day that they were killed. That they were actually killed in the forest and they have no idea what happened to their bodies.

More tears were shed on this same day, the families have accepted that these knights were already dead. Yet here they were alive and kicking.

Akihiro then tasked them to rest first and try to adapt, they were gone for more than five years. Like they jumped through time.

Another gift, Eureka gave them another gift.

After this, they continued with their day, searching and investigating. Some have also already started training with plain weapons. Back then before Eureka persuaded them, these knights have entirely relied on their abilities.

Now that they no longer have any ability to back them up, they can only work hard in training their physical bodies. And yes these were being monitored by Raven's group.

Their motivation to train despite just coming out from war stems from the fact that they have no idea where the other conspirators were. They don't know if they were also revived.

This continued for a few days. While the others still helping out those from the other kingdoms in getting used with a new life.

"Why didn't he recover just like everyone?" Azusa couldn't help but ask Akito.

Leo was still asleep, his body still wounded from the battle. He was the only one who didn't recover with Eureka's move.

"Just as this world is the center of the ability, I think Leo could also be termed in such a way. He was after all still Juzo and so his recovery was different. That must also be the reason why Eureka had to treat him before she used her final move."

The one who replied was Akihiro, he is with Yukimura. These friends of Leo had been alternately visiting him everyday. Checking on his condition.

Everything was also explained, that the person lying in the hospital bed was the hero of Aurora Kingdom years ago. He was only possessed and so he was not aware of what Juzo had been doing. They also emphasized that if he didn't stop Juzo back then, then Akihiro and Haruka would already be dead.

Azusa and Layla was truly thankful for this, if they didn't add this detail. Then it would be much more difficult for the people to accept Leo once again.

"I am going to warn you. You do know that Juzo won't be able to possess Leo if Leo himself was not possessing sufficient amount of darkness," Akihiro then started explaining.

"We have no idea just what deeds Leo have done in the future he went to. If he had killed people or other cases. There are so many things that could be considered as bad. Where darkness could be born. Now that we have him back, there is only one problem we all will have o face."

"Could you be referring, your highness, to the guilt that might eat my father up?" Azusa after hearing his words understood where Akihiro is going.

For this was also what Eureka wrote in her letter. The guilt Leo would feel.

Akihiro nodded as he looked at the sleeping face of his friend. Ever since the last time he saw him, the face have aged quite a lot. It was also much thinner and looked like it was carrying the whole world's problem.

He held Leo's hand that was all bones. His arms were so thin as well. Akihiro remembered clearly just how much Leo would fuss over his body. He didn't want the bulky one but not thin either, just the right one. He was also the one who ate the healthiest foods among them.

"Being the most righteous among us and the one who always had his guard against the people who could pose threat to the kingdom, I am very sure that his guilt would be a tremendous one. That's why, he needs our support more than ever."

He then looked back at Layla and Azusa, "That is why, I could only ask of you. No matter what he may have done. I hope you could still forgive him and stay by his side. You are the most important to him and his guilt would be towards you as well would be the greatest."

Layla and Azusa then promised that they would not falter no matter what. Akihiro smiled at them before turning and nodding approvingly. He then left to attend to the other matters.

But before leaving he had reminded them to keep talking to him. If what Eureka have said before that his soul was in slumber then one of the reasons why he haven't woken up yet is because of that.

So they should try and keep on talking to him for surely soon they would be able to reach his soul.

Azusa, who still has some duties, left Layla minutes after Akihiro and the others left. But just as she left she saw Haruka coming out from a check up with Akira.

"Your highness? Could you be sick somewhere?" she asked worriedly.

All of them have decided to take care of the royal family while Eureka was away and so seeing Haruka in the hospital she became worried.

Haruka smiled at her, "It seems that Nana and Rino forgot to tell you guys."

Azusa tilted her head in confusion upon hearing such a reply.

*****

"MAMORU!!! GUYS!!"

Hearing Azusa's shout all of them looked at her running figure. The guys were together for they were training the other knights. While the girls were scattered as they were the ones tasked to watch over the confusion in the kingdom, they were the ones who must settle the issues that could arise from this sudden change in their environment.

Shocked by her appearance Mamoru run to meet her, upon getting close he checked everything. If she has any wound or anything.

"Wh What happened? What's wrong? Are you okay? Are you wounded?" he asked non stop.

"No *breaths* geez *breaths* give me… a mo… moment."

She took a deep breath thrice before she looked up at him, sweat dripping in her forehead. She then flashed a bright smile towards Mamoru.

Seeing her happy look he couldn't help but smile as well as he fix her hair that was stuck on her fore head. She looks like a child in front of him right now.

"What is it?"

"Pregnant!!" she exclaimed.

Mamoru's movements froze upon hearing the word. Everything fell silent as well, the whole crowd looked at the two of them shocked.

Azusa furrowed her brows upon this reaction, isn't it a bit too weird?

"Woah, Mamoru seriously?!?" Hideyoshi who returned to his senses asked as he clamp his hand on Mamoru's shoulder.

"I didn't expect that from you," Theo added.

Rino, Natsuki and Raven looked at each other.

Mamoru, on the other hand, returned to his senses, he looked at Azusa with a bright red face, "B-But Azusa, we- we haven't done th- that yet."

Azusa's confused look changed to that of shock then her face turned bright red upon realizing what everyone was thinking.

"N- N- NO!! Stop thinking in that direction. I- It's not me, i- it's..." she couldn't finish her sentence as she point at Rino.

How embarrassing is this? There were more than a hundred knight in here, some were from the other two kingdoms. She was too excited that she forgot to elaborate her words.

"You're pregnant?!?" Hideyoshi exclaimed before he was hit in the head by Rino and Raven.

"Just how much more stupid could you get?" Raven asked.

Before any of them could speak again, Karen's anxious and happy voice rung out.

"AZUSA!! YOU'RE PREGNANT?!?"

All the girls was suddenly together and are approaching them at a fast pace. Who knows how but somehow all of them heard Azusa's proclamation.

Slowly the knights look at Karen. Azusa pointed at Rino, he couldn't be pregnant, then could it be his lover?

Karen stopped on her tracks upon seeing the look everyone was giving her, "Uhmm, what's going on?"
