No POV

Filo, Naofumi, Raphtalia, & Khiry are now seeing that the wave has finally ended.

Filo: Is it over?

The ship has stopped, landing on the mountain. Naofumi then sees Khiry looking drained.

Naofumi: Khiry, are you ok?

Khiry: I'm fine.

There was a shadow passing over them as they looked up to see Blaze circling. Khiry then waved his hand as Naofumi then turn Filo.

Naofumi: Take us to the village.

Filo: Yes.

Filo then runs to a village with Blaze following them.

Khiry POV

I then see the little children play with an old woman as I am drinking my Elixir. I then sighed out of relief as my group are with me & I told them what happened.

Astolfo: So, she did show up.

Me: Yeah

Flashback brought to you by Chibi Old woman

While they are entering the kingdom, Khiry stopped, causing the others to stop as well.

Atalanta: Now what?

Me: Another vision.

Mordred: About what?

Me: Not what... Who. A woman wearing a kimono.

Astolfo: Anything else?

Me: Her weapon... a fan with a gem on it.

Fran: Is she... hero?

Me: Only time will tell. Let's hope she might help us.

No POV

Khiry then stands up to see Naofumi along with two knights coming this way.

Khiry: What?

Naofumi: The knights want us to go to the castle.

Khiry: Not happening.

Knight #2: Um, please?

Khiry: I have no business with a jackass who is making all the orders.

The first knight looked pissed.

Knight #1: Listen, you! The King demanded that you will--

Khiry quickly tackles the knight with the mustache he then holds the knight's left eye open as the dagger tip is near it. Khiry then shows yandere staring at the knight.

Khiry: I said that I have no business with him.

Naofumi: Assassin, I don't like it, but it is mandatory.

Khiry then looked at Naofumi with purple eyes.

Khiry: Mandatory...

Khiry then looked at the knight on the ground.

Khiry: Is this true?

Knight #1: Yes!

True

Khiry then moved the dagger away & got up from the knight. The knight knows not to piss him off. Khiry then kept his eyes on him as the knight behind the other. 

Naofumi: Come on.

Khiry: Why? We are forced to go because he has the power for now.

Naofumi: For now?

Khiry: Yeah. His wife is cleaning up his mess. That knight knows it.

Naofumi then looked at them.

The king is seeing the battle that Naofumi & Assassin has against the wave.

King: I saw what happened through the crystal ball. You did well to quell the Wave, as much as I hate to admit it.

Khiry: Good. See ya.

King: Wait, I have a question for both of you. How did you both obtain such strength? You possess power unbecoming of the Shield Hero. It is your duty to reveal the secret behind it.

Khiry: Did the other heroes reveal their secrets?

King: Uh, yes.

False

Khiry: Then we leave.

King: Hey, spit it out. & don't you dare lie to me.

Naofumi then pointed to the ground.

Naofumi: If you want to know so badly, kneel before me.

The knights are shocked to hear that. 

Naofumi: In our world, one grovels before the person they're asking for something. & they say, "I beg you. Please enlighten my ignorant self."

King: You cur!

The knights then surrounded them with their swords out, but Khiry is getting so mad that he burst into flames, pushing the knights away, but standing on their feet. The King, even Naofumi sees that his magical aura is surrounding him with Hellfire(Secretly unlocked, not by Khiry). Naofumi is seeing that bar again.

Naofumi then touches Khiry's right shoulder, which he is not affected by Khiry looked at him & started to calm down as the flame aura is lowering.

Naofumi: As we are now, we could kill you here & walk out the door if we wanted to.

King: You're bluffing.

Khiry: We're not. After all, while he was the one who took down that wave's boss monster, I am the one who made your precious little Spear Hero into a little boy playing with a stick. Now I ask, do you think you can stop me?

The knights then backed away after Khiry said that. The King is on edge.

Naofumi: I'm willing to cooperate with you until the Waves die down & I can go home. So don't even bother us.

Naofumi then started to leave, but the King stopped him.

King: I am the King! You cannot disrespect me this way, Shield! I know. I'll have your wretched slaves pay for your crimes, &...

Naofumi then show the King his angry face as it backed him away.

Naofumi: Use all the dirty, underhanded tricks you want. I will protect my party through it all. You'll never take anything from me again. I dare you to lay a finger on them. I'll chase you to the ends of the earth & make you regret ever being born.

Naofumi then left and Khiry then followed.

King: Hey, you. Tell me your secrets!

Khiry: No. Oh, one more thing...

Khiry then quickly dashed to the King he put a dagger blade in his mouth as the knights are in shock.

Khiry: If you ever tried any dirty, cheap trick on my team, I will gouge out your own eyes & ask, "Why so serious?" I will rip your lips off, then your tongue out, painted the words, "Why so serious?" with your blood. & Finally, I will crack open your skull, rip open your chest, & feast on your empty brain & your beating heart. However, I am feeling generous. There are Fates worse than death.

Khiry then pulls the dagger out of his mouth, & taps his cheek. He then got off & headed to the door as the door opened to reveal Melty walking. When she sees Khiry, he secretly holds the finger up to his mouth as he left. 

Khiry POV

I then see my team in front of the castle.

Me: Now, let's go home.

Atalanta: You seem pissed.

Me: How can you tell?

Astolfo: What happened?

Me: King Jackass demanded both me & Naofumi tell him about the secrets, then use hollow threats. Honestly, how low can you go? 

Mordred: It's his rich pride. That or some history with the shield hero itself.

Fran: Meaning... someone else...

Blaze: It is possible that one of the Shield Heroes must have him.

Me: Sounds to me that you experience that.

Mordred: My father, the king, has rejected me, saying that I am indeed born from her and her sister's plotting. She will not recognize me as her "son" or give me the throne.

Me: "Her?" "She?" Wait, King Author...

Mordred: A woman.

We are all shocked.

Blaze: How is it possible?

Me & Mordred: Dick wizard Merlin.

Mordred: It would be impossible for her to accept me.

I then walked up to Mordred & gave her a big hug.

Mordred: Khiry...?

Me: I believe you are not at fault. Your birth is not out of control. Your "dad" needs to take responsibility, despite your situation.

I then look at Mordred.

Me: If you want, I can try & help rebuild your relationship with your "dad."

Mordred is looking as if she got second thoughts about her relationship with her "father..."

???: Um, Assassin?

I then turn to see Melty. 

Melty: I would like you to accompany me to head towards the shield hero.

I then started to see not one, not two, but three visions: The First Vision is a knight is going to attack both Melty & Naofumi, the second vision is a fireball going to attack Melty, & the third vision is someone, dressed as the pope holding up a weapon. I got back with a painful headache as Mordred hold me.

Melty: Khiry, are you ok?

Me: Yeah, I'm fine. Sorry, but I need to find something out, so I am sending Saber & Berserker in my place. So get ready.

Melty: Okay.

Melty then went to get her wagon ready with the carriage as I signaled the rest of the group to come toward me.

Me: Huddle.

We then huddle in a group.

Fran: Why?

Mordred: I agree. What makes you decide to let us be with her?

Me: I have three visions. The first one is a guard who will probably attack Naofumi so they can frame him for taking the second princess, which is why I want you two to join her. The second is someone is shooting a fireball at Melty.

Astolfo: Any wizards?

Me: I don't know. But my third vision is some type of weapon. The design somehow resembles the church.

We all looked at the church of the three heroes. I then looked at Atalanta, Astolfo, & Blaze.

Me: I need you three to find any information in the library. Either here or in any other place. If you guys need help, I will send a clone to help you guys., okay?

The group: Yes, sir.

I then summoned Thunder Feather & move at lightning speed to see if the cabin is safe.

Me: Good.

I then pulled out my stopwatch & hit the clicker as the hands spun to the time of my second vision as it show me a full 360 vision. I then looked around to see my vision in full.

Me: Just as I expected.

The fireball is being shot by... Myne.

((DONE! KHIRY HAS FOUND OUT THAT MYNE IS TRYING TO KILL MELTY. DOES THE KING KNOW ABOUT THIS TREACHERY? WHAT IS THAT WEAPON KHIRY SAW? WHAT HAPPENED WHEN WRAITH'S EMPOWERMENT REACH 100%? UNTIL THEN, STAY SHOCKING!))
