She's That Knight Known as Zero 297 Married To Someone Else

Only after getting the bath ready did he woke her up.

"Go on and take a bath, then you can return to sleep. I'll wake you up once the food is ready after that."

Eureka didn't speak and just followed suit, she had indeed pushed herself to fight a while ago. But her pent up frustration after confronting him and the fact that she was really angered by the plans of the rebels towards Hikari.

All of it made her want to vent out some frustrations. So whatever Raven said, she just followed. She went to bath then returned to sleep.

Raven watched her as she moved like a zombie entering the bathroom then minutes later she came out and still like a zombie went upstairs to her bed and went straight to sleep.

Not once have any of them saw her this way. She had always been in control and the times he was with her in her home, she was still in control. 

Yet she actually had such a side to her, he couldn't help but chuckle.

Knowing full well that she has nothing at home, he went to his place getting some ingredients. He checked the time and seeing as it was still quite early for dinner, he decided to study the map in his living room.

The x marks on it were where he had noticed the rebels would sometimes move. He was always on the move and watching their every move, but not once did they had the plan to have the first move against these people.

So Eureka's words a while ago was the first. Since they already showed their intentions? Why not look for them first?

Knocks on the door was what brought him back from his thoughts.

Hideyoshi and the others were the ones that welcomed him upon opening the door.

"Where is she?" Feena asked the moment he opened the door.

"Sleeping, why are you all here? Don't you think that they would be suspicious by this?" Raven replied as he followed them in.

They actually welcomed themselves in without asking him.

"It's fine, all procedures were done already. We asked for a rest after that long fight. King Akihiro seemed to notice but he didn't comment," Hideyoshi replied.

"She's not in here," Azusa commented after seeing the empty bed on the second floor.

"You're a married woman, do you think it's nice to check out a single man's bedroom?" Raven reprimanded.

"Stop hiding her," she instead retorted.

All of them were so close that such formalities were no longer needed between them.

"I told you she's sleeping. Pipe down will you or I'll throw you out," Raven rolled his eyes and picked up the ingredients he had prepared a while ago.

He was planning on cooking at her place but since these guys are here, he decided to just cook here and bring it later on. This way even if they were noisy she wouldn't be disturbed.

"Could she be at her place?" Feena asked but it was obvious that she had calmed down compared to when they just arrived.

"Stay here, we can wake her up later on. She is still not feeling well so getting enough rest is what she must have," he replied as he started cooking.

After hearing him, the three sat down in his living room. But they were still in a complete shock, they didn't even know how they were able to fight a while ago despite being too shock.

"So she really is back, with her memory and all," Azusa muttered as she held Feena's hand.

"But how?"

"She'll explain it to you herself," was what Raven said.

He heard her explanation but even he was still overwhelmed by what had just happened. The two of them were just speaking then the next second they were fighting side by side.

He was just much more in control of his emotions that he can still keep his head straight. 

"Were you mad at her Raven?" after a few moment of only his slicing could be heard, Azusa suddenly asked.

"I was."

"I don't know what I feel, how should I confront her?" she couldn't help but add.

She was already a mother alright? But this issue was still difficult for them. She had allowed them to go to so much roller coaster rides you know.

"Face her the way you want, but if I am not mistaken, she must be planning on confronting all of you at once, those who are here I mean. And she must have been planning to do so after the fight a while ago."

He then faced the three of them, "But it seems that she had once again over estimated herself. So I ask you, why don't you let her rest for today. Tomorrow she would surely appear in the castle and face everyone properly."

Seeing as all three of them were silent he continued, "This way, you would be able to clear your minds as well. And listen to her properly. I was actually too shock a while ago that she became agitated towards me."

"I was completely mad and angered by everything she had done, by her selfishness, but after listening to everything she had said. I came to realize that it was not that bad at all."

"I am not saying this because I myself have already forgiven her but because I want you to be prepared. Once Mamoru returns tell him to prepare himself as well."

"But compared to us guys, I think that the ones who must really prepare should be you ladies."

The three was silent but they came to understand what Raven meant, if they confront her now, then she will confront the others the next day. That would be too taxing to her.

So after drinking and chatting a bit more with him, they finally left. A few minutes more and the food was ready as well.

He carried it back to Eureka's place and prepared everything before waking her up. At first she was completely disoriented but after sitting down and drinking a glass of water, Eureka's mind have cleared up.

"Have they come?" was her first question upon seeing the time.

"They have, but I asked them to wait until tomorrow and confront you with everyone else," he replied as he ate a spoonful of the dinner.

It was a silent dinner, but just like when she was sick and Raven prepared some food. It was not awkward but instead it was comforting.

"Are you going back to the castle after this?" she then asked just as they were about to be finish.

"I'll also have to report."

"Then... please do tell them to prepare, expecially Karen. She is currently pregnant being too emotional might be bad for her."

She wanted to say that she would go with him but changed her mind at the next second. After confronting Raven a while ago and fighting as she showed the others that she had truly returned.

She realized that she was truly emotionally tired right now. She may be unable to explain everything properly if she were to go with him.

Raven was right, she should just rest for tonight and gain as much strength as she can. Once she had finished the hurdle tomorrow, the others who didn't manage to meet her when her memories were not intact would be much easier.

Seeing her look, Raven understood what was going on in her mind and just acknowledged her request.

"Then I suppose we will launch our attack instead of waiting for them then," Rino commented after hearing Raven's report.

"That would be much faster compared to just waiting. We have waited in the past and that caused a mishap on our part," Raven added.

"I understand. We shall speak about this tomorrow morning on the daily meeting. You may return," Rino replied.

"And,"

He looked up after hearing Raven spoke once again.

"Do prepare for another meeting after the morning one."

"Why is that?"

"It would be much more intense, especially for Karen."

"I don't get it, what is it that you are referring to?"

"Another revelation would happen tomorrow and it would be too emotionally taxing. For Karen who was currently on the last stages of her pregnancy, you need to support her properly."

"Raven, stop being too mysterious right now, what is it?"

"Just wait until tomorrow, I know this would be too nerve racking but do wait until tomorrow," Raven replied seriously.

Seeing his look, Rino could only relent. Actually even his parents were being mysterious this morning. The two of them were telling him and Karen to prepare emotionally.

"Are you getting married to someone else?" he couldn't help but ask.

Everyone was obviously looking forward to the moment that Raven would marry Eureka, so when they were told to prepare emotionally this came to their mind instantly.

Raven was momentarily shock before he shook his head and bid him goodbye.
