She's That Knight Known as Zero 62 Ambush

"Who would have thought that we would meet two kings in this ambush," someone who's wearing a cape commented as he uses his Fog ability to obstruct the vision of the other knights before he started attacking.

"Don't belittle us," Shigure announced as he uses his Wind Ability to blow away the thick fog.

"Impressive, I might say, not everyone could blow away my Fog," the cape man commented before he duplicated himself.

"Wh Two abilities?" Shigure was shocked.

"I don't think it's only two though," Akihiro replied as the caped man with the two of him uses two different abilities, one used web while the other used sand.

Adding to it the fog, he was able to obstruct the vision of those knights around him, at the same time hold their feet on the ground, while some were engulfed by the webs.

"FOUR ABILITIES!!!" some exclaimed, as they try to defend from all the attacks.

"You go boss," those following the caped man cheered, there are at least 50 of them in the ambush. The Archic knights are only having difficulties due to some of them having two abilities.

"Don't take your eyes off your opponents, have they not taught you that?" Azusa was suddenly in front of one of them, using both her swords to cut that man's head.

The battle became even more chaotic.

"Yukimura, help out Shigure, I shall help on the other side," Akihiro commanded, Yukimura had fire ability while Shigure had wind.

"I shall help as well," Gato added.

"Three against one? Aren't you pathetic?" the caped man scrutinized.

"We are in a battle field not in a game," Shigure answered as he started creating wind boomerang, Gato did the same and Yukimura added fire to it.

"*laughs* pathetic creatures," the caped man laughed like a mad man.

"Just like your leader, you are pathetic," said another enemy as he planned to wash all the knights in front of him with acid.

That's when he heard a sigh behind him, "That's right, just like your leader, you love to boast of a power you acquired in the most hideous way."

He was suddenly swallowed my a magma, he couldn't even shout when all was left is nothing.

The knights were awed he looked different than when he lost control.

Raven thought as he incinerated another enemy while looking at Eureka who was just standing by a tree and her eyes closed.

"You bastards, this is unfair," the cape man roared as he holds his right shoulder where his arm was once attached.

"Unfair? Stop kidding us," Shigure commented as he controlled the wind to attack him non stop, Yukimura added his fire causing the caped man to be burnt.

"My lord, I failed," the caped man's last words before he was completely incinerated.

Looking around, they finally defeated the enemies, and it's also a good thing that no one died.

"What were you doing?" Raven asked Eureka afterwards.

"What do you mean?"

"You didn't do anything."

"You all can finish it without me helping, I just thought I'd let Azusa fight since she was complaining that I did everything in the war," Eureka replied as she once again rode her horse.

Raven was dumbfounded, just because of Azusa's words. Azusa who was closed by as well, almost choked at nothing, "I really have no idea, on what's going on in that head of yours," she couldn't help but say.

Even Shigure, Akihiro, Gato and Yukimura was lost for words and have the same thoughts on their minds,

"Shall we get moving then, your highness? The other side just finished their battle as well, they are just not as lucky as we are, they've lost some," Eureka then said to Akihiro.

"Other side? Confederate Kingdom?" Akihiro was shocked.

"Yes, your highness. They are 40 kilometers away from us," Eureka replied as she faced the direction where Ichiro and the others were.

"You could feel that far?"

"Not for long, at the same time I had to concentrate as much as I can," Eureka answered facing them.

"Are you really a zero?" this time Shigure couldn't help but ask.

"Are you really asking me that, your highness?" Eureka asked in return.

"*coughs* We have to get going now before we get ambushed once again, have you tend to your wounds all of you?" he then asked his knights.

"Yes, your highness."

*****

"How many did we lost?" Ichiro asked the generals.

"We lost 50 knights," one answered.

"We didn't lose any in the war, and was able to get out of it peacefully. Who would have thought we'd lose some in an ambush, to add to that, one of them have four abilities while the others have two."

"Could this be the enemy they were talking about?" another general asked.

"Could be, could not be. It's just a good thing we still have the traitors. For now we have to get home as soon as possible," Ichiro replied as he called all of them to get back.

*****

"Oh they all failed? It's alright they are the weakest after all. We're just measuring their strengths for now."

"My lord, it seems that they are making their moves as well."

"*laughs evilly* No matter what they do, it's futile. They won't be able to defeat me," he once again laughed as he played with a stone, a ball of fire, a ball of wind and a ball of water in his hand.

*****

"So they really are making their moves already," Shigure asked Akihiro as they continue on their way.

"Yeah but it seems they are still measuring all of us up."

"Is she necessary to them?" Shigure asked pointing Azusa with his eyes.

"Ho, why the sudden curiosity?" Akihiro asked in return.

"It's not sudden actually, you have introduced the other two as captains, and despite being a zero I've seen Eureka's strength. I've seen Azusa's improvement but compared to the other two, I can't quite put her as a guard of a king," Shigure relpied.

"Maybe we can chat over chess once the alliance is finalized," Akihiro replied.

"Seriously, you and your knight are the same, it's already more than obvious that we are allied to each other, yet you still kept on telling me to wait until we signed the contract," Shigure complained, curiosity is killing him already.

"Well, you should choose the location of where you're asking these questions in the first place," Akihiro chuckled.

"Ah," That's when Shigure realized his mistake all this time.

He had been asking questions out in the open, when they have no idea who their enemies are. These kinds of talks should be had in a different place. Even Eureka didn't forget about it.

"I suddenly remembered how Haruka once told me, how worried she is about her brother, he is clumsy and an air head at times. I suppose it really is true then," Akihiro teased.

"Oh you can finally say her name after all this time," Shigure teased in return.

"And I can feel a dagger behind my back once again," Akihiro sighed.

"He had a thing for her after all, to the point where she decided to get away from it," Shigure replied as he lowered his voice on the final words.

"And knowing how I was unable to protect her, he really must hate me after all," Akihiro whispered back, both of them pertaining to Gato.

"Nah, leave him be."

"I guess I am curious about something now myself," Akihiro replied.

Shigure knowing what he means could only smile in defeat.

Their journey back to Archic Kingdom was peaceful, they didn't encounter any more ambush or enemies. Even wild animals that have somehow developed abilities as well, left them alone.

"So when do you plan on returning?" Shigure asked when they were only a day away from Archic Kingdom.

"A week after we arrive, I am the king after all. I left for too long already. And I can already imagine my younger brother's non stop lecture once I return," Akihiro replied.

*ACHOO*

"Did you catch a cold, prince Kaoru?" one official asked Kaoru.

"Please stop with the prince, I am only here because I am atoning for all my sins at the same time because my stupid brother decided to go on a very long vacation. He must be speaking about me right now," Kaoru replied as he continued working on the paper works.

"*laughs* I somehow wanted to meet your brother, we will be in laws in the future after all," Shigure laughed.

"Stop joking with me, will you. We're no longer teens to be acting in such a way," Akihiro replied knowing full well what Shigure meant.

"Both of you are old enough to decide for yourself, even if you can't bore a child, you still have your brother, that's why no one will be able to stop you," Shigure replied. Causing Akihiro to narrow his eyes.

Shigure, on the other hand, only shake his head, telling Akihiro not to ask anything

Akihiko could only shake his head as well,

Knowing what's going through Akihiro's head, Shigure could only smile in defeat,
