Karsearin: Adventures of a Red Dragon[]
Season 2[]
Arin held a hare's ears in one hand, and she held a hare's ears in each hand and he said look, they got rabbits. Yuna was surprised and asked how'd Arin catch rabbits so quickly. Arin answered rabbits hopped over when he asked. Yuna's eyes lit up and said great job, Arin, he should leave the cooking to her. Yuna quickly searched through her robe. A dagger, a skewer for grilling, and several vials containing spices immediately popped out. Arin asked that's a magic clock. They skewered the hares whole, placed them on the campfire, and began roasting them. Seton looked at the bonfire and asked well... now what... Yuna smiled and said she'll traveled with guys, Seton, she has nowhere to go anyway since the academy's destroyed... She said Seton saved her when she was on the verge of death, so does as he wished. Seton thought he has no reason to turn down forming a party with someone as talented as Yuna, and she must stay with him to prove Karsel's crimes as the witness. She said excused her... ...it would be okay for her to show up in public... after assassinating the king and wreaking havoc in the arena, she's pretty much responsible for reducing Cahillan to ruins. Seton said oh... th-that's true. Yuna asked then why she doesn't stay here... Arin said what's the problem, the arena and its surroundings are already destroyed, plus, he doubt anyone will recognize her without her huge sword. Seton said right, her massive sword is so eyecatching... ...that he doubt her face is as memorable, Arin, he's surprisingly smart. Arin said he has always been smart. Arin and his group walked along the road. She, who had been indifferent, opened her mouth that she can do it with her sword. Someone shouted ooh, the Mystic Sword, it does help them fly. Someone said let's split up and look for it since they're in the arena anyway. Seton frowned absentmindedly and thought it will be all right for her to get back her sword... ...she's going along with them now because she doesn't have it, but if she got her superhuman strength back, she might atack them without hesitation... With an indifferent expression, she reached out to the pile of rocks, and at the same time her slender arms lifted the rocks easily. Seton's mouth fell open. Arin let out a spontaneous exclamation of admiration that wow, she's so strong. Yuna said she might find it sooner than she thought. Seton thought she's stil powerful without her Mystic Sword, why she's so compliant when she's so strong, he can't tell if they can trust her... After a moment, she pulled out a great sword from the dust pit and said she found it. Arin smiled and said she should hurry and launch them into the sky. She said sure, they should please take a seat. The expressions of everyone except her changed strangely. Arin asked huh... take a seat, where. Everyone sat on the sword. Soon, the sword slowly rose into the air. Arin let out a cheer and shouted whoaaa, it's a flying bench. She said she figured this was the best way... for all four of them to fly. Arin shouted this is so much fun. Seton sighed and said a knight's sword is their heart and soul... what they're doing riding on one... Yuna smiled bitterly and said it can't be helped since it's an emergency, right. Yuna said oh, there it's, that's probably where the Shihad Academy is. Arin shouted let's go back down, her. She said okay, they should hold on. Suddenly Rake looked up at the sky and was surprised and said huh. Rake asked something didn't zip through the sky just now. Seria answered it was probably a bird, there's no way anyone else survived... after yesterday's meteor shower. [1]
Charlene wore an old cloak and shoes and said she can't thank them enough, they've helped her a lot, but she hasn't been able to do anything in return. Charlene bowed her head and said she'll make sure to compensate them well once she get her powers back. Pete said everyone, they will really traveling to the Southern palace, it would be better to reach the Imperial Capital as soon as possible, they don't have enough to intervene in such matters... Seton said that's true... but it's not like they can ignore Charlene's predicament. Yuna said if Charlene is indeed the Southern Empire's Queen of Sorcery, then they have nothing to lose by helping her, but most importantly... ...she wanted to accompany her, that left them with no choice. Night watch. Accommodations through various spells. Food acquisition. [2]
Seton said he can't believe how relieved they were... even though the six of them have to share a room since the rest were occupied. Yuna said that's because they've been sleeping out in the open for more than two weeks. She said first things first... ...take off their clothes, everyone. Seton was surprised. She, wearing an apron, did the laundry. Charlene, who was watching this scene with Pete pulled herself out of the window frame, said oh... she was talking about laundry, that remined her, she said she used to live at a farm. Pete said the apron looked surprisingly good on her, it looked even better than the monstrous sword she swinged... [3]
Arin yawned and asked her, how long it will take for their clothes to dry, he doesn't like the garb they borrowed. She picked up her great sword and said Arin please be patient. She began to infuse mana into the hand holding the sword. The great sword soon became hot, emitting pure white steam, and she raised the sword and slowly began to iron the clothes. Someone asked whoa, what she's doing. She answered she's ironing the clothes. Pete thought Seton would faint if he saw this... he can't believe she's using her sword like that. Time passed and all the clothes were ironed. Arin was excited to wear the clothes that she gave him and shouted wow, it felt so soft. She still spoke bluntly that because she ironed them. She asked by the way, where Seton and Yuna were. Arin answered oh, Seton, the two of them went to go spend money. As the sun was setting, the sky began to turn red. The evening sky was covered with a huge crimson curtain. She was leaning against a tree trunk, looking at the blazing red sky. And Arin lay down on her lap, his long red hair that reached down to his waist completely disheveled. Suddenly, she looked down and asked Arin, they shall go inside if he's feeling sleepy, resting his head on a pillow is more comfortable. Arin's eyes closed and answered nah, he prefer her lap, her, it's so much comfier, he want to stay here a bit longer. Suddenly she asked, Arin, he does have a dream. For a moment, Arin's eyes lit up and shouted a dream, to become a warrior, of course, he want to swing his sword in the wilderness.... She said she... used to have a dream as well., a commoner's dream is nothing special, get married, have children... ...it's not much of a dream, really, it hasn't even been a year but it felt like ages ago, now, mundane life has become a dream for her... She stroked Arin's cheeks, and he asked her... She smiled. Then her smile, expression, and emotions disappeared. She said let's get up now, Arin already dirtied the clothes she just washed for him, if he keep soiling them, she's going to make him do the laundry next time. Arin was surprised and shouted aww, no fair. [3]
After leaving the rural village in the Southern Region of the Gaianes Empire, Arin and his party met bandits at the Mount Madain pass leading to the central region of Southern Gaianes. Suddenly, rugged men appeared on both sides of the mountain path and started yelled hehehe, they'll have to get through them first if they want to pass, they should give them everything they have and they'll spare their lives. Someone said they did take a crash course on how to be a bandit. Another person said ...their appearance and speech... were the textbook example of bandits. Arin said oh, that's what they were, bandits, he read about them in a book, they look like orangutans in real life. Yuna said well, they might have a similar level of intelligence. The bandits were angry and shouted what, why they... ...they little rats don't know what's coming for ya. Charlene was surprised and shouted e-everyone, they should watch out. Her great sword cut through the wind and created a trail in the air. The bandits were hit squarely on the side of the sword and screamed. Charlene said huh. The bandits shouted eek... ...a monster... The bandits lost their minds and began to run away and shouted ...spare them, crap, this is bad, they should run for their lives, everyone. Seton said oh, how come she let them get away without shedding a single drop of blood. Pete said she did go easy on them because they're humans, that's a first... Yuna said thanked, her. At this time, Yuna was surprised and said huh, she... ...she's bleeding... Red blood trickled down her skin from her nose. She wiped her nosebleed with her hand and thought oh no... ...perhaps she shouldn't have resisted. She said she's fine, let's go, they should find a place to sleep before sunset. Beyond the hill, they saw an old two-story wooden building that was falling apart. Seton said they're in luck, to think they'd come across an abandoned house here. There was a decaying wooden sign on the floor. There was also an inscription written in the continent's official language: INN. Someone said it looked like this place used to be an inn, how come it's abandoned now. Pete said what if... it was all because of the bandits earlier. Seton thought those lousy punks. Pete said they were far more notorious than they should've ben, there might be a much stronger gang of bandits out there, well, either way, they can rest easy as long as she's here. Seton said true... Smoke rose from the chimney. Yuna cut something with a knife, and she went somewhere carrying wood. In a shallow stream with clear water flowing, Charlene asked by the way, when they ran into the bandits earlier... Seton would say she was acting strangely during the fight, she thought she fought them off normally, but everyone seemed shocked... Seton answered it's because her battles always end in bloodshed, she's been attacking humans like they were monsters, never holding herself back, so the fact that she did today was strange... Charlene thought about something and muttered quietly that ...she stopped killing humans all of a sudden. Someone thought come to think of it, she started bleeding even though she wasn't injured, that does have something to do with it. Ten rugged men walked out. The biggest one among them, a man in his 30s, asked to the other that he's saying that small fry beat him up, how pathetic. The scraggly-haired man standing next to the brute, shouted he has got it wrong, Boss, that's not the monster who beat them to a plup. She clasped her open hand and made up her mind about something. [4]
Yuna said well... Seton's wrong about that, what Arin and she did is more than enough... Yuna turned her head. For some reason, she was fighting the bandits with her bare hands. The fallen bandits groaned that guh... Yuna said ...huh... ...how come she didn't kill anyone again... Actually... ...something about she seemed off. Suddenly Pete spotted her and asked she does have any injuries. It was then that Yuna's sharp voice calmed the mood that Pete, he should watch out. Her knifehand was swept by the wind. Pete's front, which was about to reach out, was almost attacked and he shouted whoa. An eerie voice came out of her mouth that Pete should stay... away... ...her... Her eyes shone through her tangled hair, a growl escaped from her mouth, and her breathy voice struck their ears that they should... stay... away from... her... Pete asked, trembling that wh-what's happening to her. Likewise, Yuna responded trembling that she doesn't know. Yuna thought the Vessel of the Soul is supposed to be unstable, they're in danger... ...if Aria goes berserk. She gave off an eerie aura. Arin said huh, why they're standing around. Arin approached her and said let's go back inside to eat, he's starving. Yuna screamed in horror that Arin, he should watch out, right now, she's-- Arin said hmm. Her hand immediately reached out. She walked up behind Arin and hugged him. Arin asked her, what's wrong, she's feeling sick. Her murderous spirit began to subside, and a faint emotion came over her expressionless face, but it was not murderous, but something softer, and she answered no... ...she's fine now... thanked to him, Arin. Pete asked what's going on. Yuna sighed and they'd better ask Charlene later. Yuna thought when they did... ...become so desensitized to murder... [5]
The group sat around a small table, and there were several sheets of paper on it, filled with drawings of all kinds of buildings. She said if Charlene's goal if to remove the spell... ...instead of going around the problem... ...why they don't take down the fake. Yuna was embarassed and shouted how that is even possible, Fakelene* is also a mage of Eighth Circle, it'll be challenging regardless of how strong she's. *Fakelene=Fake Charlene. Charlene said killing the fake won't remove the seal... since the spell doesn't require a continuous stream of mana... On a street, a market area on the outskirts of Idelon City, a cold-looking woman and a long-red haired girl in a dress were walking around the bustling street. A man said what a looker. A woman said she's a nobleman's daughter. Seton who was looking at the two people from afar, asked it does look good on Arin... but this will really work. Yuna said well, she can't say... ...but they might as well give it a try, Arin looked like a beautiful, naive lady wandering around without a single guard nearby, he's practically dripping with gold. It was right then. A boy in shabby clothes sneaks up to Arin and her, who were walking far away, and bumped into her body, said oops, his bad. Seton was surprised and Yuna said yes, they got one, a pickpocket. The pickpocket snatched leather purse tied to Aria's waist, then ran away. Seton shouted h-he's getting away. Yuna said relax, Seton, she told Aria not to go after them, catching that kid isn't their goal, he's just going to hand over his catch to the middleman, they won't get any good information out of him even if they try, but money always finded a way to the person at the top, right, she cast a Tracking Spell on the silver conis inside the purse, so all they have to do is take their time and follow the coins. Seton was surprised and said she's amazing, Yuna... Yuna said the silver coins will guide them... ...to a place that will help them creat their fake identities, the Guild of Thieves. [6]
Season 3[]
Another person opened the door and shouted this is bad. Hyak asked huh, what's all this fuss about. Another person shouted they... ...they have intruders. She, with a calm face, cut through the wall with her great sword, and the rest of the group of men and women also came in. Hyak shouted what's going on. Hyak was surprised and thought she did... break down the wall just now, this is no joke, she's really dangerous. In the Idelon's Guild of Thieves, a young man looked back and said Hyak told him about their company, they may come in. Yuna had an expression that was so absurd that it bordered on astonishment. She asked Yuna. [7]
Suddenly, she, who had not said a word before, stepped forward and asked it's really important to establish dominance. Yuna looked at Aria in shock and said A-Aria, they can't have any bloodshed. She said she understand. She answered coolly and walked towards Elyne with long strides. Of course Elyne was embarrassed and thought what's this, she's strong enough for Yuna to hold her back, huh. Elyne smirked and thought great, he'll get the drop on them by bringing her to her knees. Elyne stretched out his estoc, the sharp sword strike was aimed precisely at her uvula. Pete shouted no. Charlene shouted her. Elyne said to her that huh, he thought she was strong, but now he saw she's just a fool, she's not even protecting her weak spots. She suddenly showed her teeth and bit down on the blade. Elyne thought what the heck... ...she bit the blade. Elyne shouted to her that ha, she's challenging him to a battle of guts, if she thought that could make him cower before her... ...then she's mistaken, he'll take his life in return for accepting the assignment. Elyne tried to stab estoc, but the blade wouldn't budge. Elyne thought huh... what's going on, she won't budge, no matter how much he struggle. Elyne shouted graaah. She turned her head and saw that she was holding a sword with her teeth, so of course the sword turned and the person holding the sword also turned. Elyne lost his grip on the sword and was thrown to the side of the room. She spat back the sword. Elyne said to her that why she... In a hurry, Elyne also launched a counterattack and shouted ...little. She reached for Elyne, and he quickly reached out with both hands to grab her wrist and forearm. Elyne shouted to her that hehe, she's strong, he'll give her that, but wait till he break her arm. She lifted her arms and Elyne, who had tied her joints, was also lifted into the air. Elyne shouted ha, hmph, why it isn't snapping. She threw her arms back down along with Elyne who was hanging on. Elyne shouted guh. She continued to hold Elyne and swung her around the room, causing loud hitting sounds to echo throughout the room. Elyne shouted argh, guh, gragh... She let go. Elyne groaned as his face swelled. She looked back at someone and said no bloodshed, this is enough to establish dominance. Someone thought she actually managed not to make Elyne bleed. Elyne got angry at her question and shouted to her that she has got to be kidding him, this is their headquarters, she thought she can get out of here alive. Again, she grabbed the elf bat and hit the room. She said to Elyne that he doesn't know who's Boss yet. Elyne shouted ugh, goddammit. She asked this is enough. Elyne shouted ugh... argh... She asked it's. In a panic, Elyne let out a scream that y-yes, that's enough, he understand, so she may stop, she may spare this poor elf. Only then did she take a step back and said Yuna, please continue where she left off. Yuna was surprised and said oh, okay. A smile that couldn't be hidden appeared on Yuna's lips and she said it sure felt good to see Elyne like this, he's ready to talk now. Thanked to the cooperation of the Guild of Thieves, Arin and his friends were able to infiltrate the outer bailey by disguising themselves as maids. Their next step was to sneak into the inner bailey and steal the Tanin's Scepter with Brother Pete's help. There had been a slight change of plans, though, because they could only disguise themselves as... ...maids. There were no other open spots left in the castle. Yuna said their mission requires at least two members, Charlene can't disguise herself, so why don't she and she-- She said she's not going anywhere without Arin. [8]
Arin smiled and waved his hand and said her, she could let him try doing laundry too. Arin was hanging laundry on the clothesline and asked this was how Arin does it, like this. She said Arin, wait... Arin dropped the laundry on the ground and said oops. Arin laughed and said it's okay, he can just give it a good shake, no... Arin need to wash it again. Arin dropped the laundry on the ground again and said oops, he dropped it again, he should shake off the dirt. Yuna said what Arin was doing. She said Arin just don't do anything. Arin slept on the first floor of a bunk bed. Someone said Arin, wake up, Arin. Arin who's wearing a white nightshirt looked at her with a frown and asked Yuna, why she's waking him up. Yuna who's wearing a robe, answered why, Arin ask... ...because their plan begins tonight, so he must hurry and get ready. Next to Yuna is her wearing a mercenary uniform. [9]
As Idelynn Castle was a royal palace, of course there were guards patrolling around all the time. Yuna said the path was clear. Arin's eyes sparkled with tension and excitement and said this was kind of fun and thrilling. Yuna said just so Arin knew... they're risking their lives for this infiltration. Yuna thought the Tower of Razel is an impregnable fortress under the empire's strongest magical protection, if worse comes to worst, she'll get Arin to transform so they can get out of there. She said Yuna, Arin, they have arrived, this must be it, the storage where the wagons were being kept. They took a box from one of the lined up wagons. The great sword was caught in her hand, and the Dazzling Dragon Sword was caught in Arin's hand. Yuna said Pete successfully smuggled them in. Arin tilted his head as he watched Yuna take out a black robe from the box and put it on, and said, huh, the color of her robe is different. Yuna said a white robe is too eyecatching, Arin, she, they two should wear their robes too, they don't have much time, let's hurry, their next destination is the sewer located about 300 feet south of the maids' residence, it'll be a little dirty... ...but they'll have to put up with it for their plan... Arin can do that. But surprisingly, Arin didn't show any resistance and just grumbled a little and said ugh... the sewer again, he does have a choice, let's go. Yuna said even though they have these roves on, please they should take care not to get any filth on them, having a stench will make it harder for them to move stealthily. Arin covered his nose with his hand and said ugh, he hate filth, he should've gone with Pete, he bet he's relaxing in a comfy room. The Tower of Razel underground hall. In a small cave they saw an iron bars blocking the vent and Yuna said Pete is late. Arin asked a question to Yuna that why they don't go in first. Yuna frowned and shouted absolutely not, she already explained to Arin earlier about the traps, the floor of the alchemist is located underground inside the Tower of Razel, the hallway connected to that... ...has a Detect Crystal, a magical item that sensed intruders, it's fine to move around inside, but if someone tries to infiltrate from the outside, it immediately triggers an alarm, the only way to stop the crystal is for someone inside to deactivate it, that's why they have to wait for Pete to use Dispel Magic on the crystal. Arin said hmm... At this time, Arin's body, which was sitting on the iron bars blocking the ventilation shaft, began to sway and fall downwards. Yuna asked huh. With a loud sound effect, Arin shouted gah and managed to land noisily in the middle of the hallway, along with the iron bars blocking the vent. At that moment, Yuna said owie... Yuna shouted A-Arin, what he has done. Fortunately, it wasn't too high, so Arin only ended up falling on his butt, and he made a sad face. Yuna asked Charlene did tell them the wrong information, no, it can't be... maybe the magical item is broken. She answered she doesn't know much about magic... ...but it could be because... Arin is a dragon, a creature different from them. [10]
Arin smiled brightly and shouted the intruder-detecting crystal must be broken, Yuna, she, they may come down. Yuna said they can't go down and risk triggering the alarm, please Arin should go use the Dispel Magic on the crystal. Arin said what, he doesn't know how to use that magic. She threw a huge sword through the vent and said Arin should use this, the Dispel Magic should be engraved on it. Arin thought how he's supposed to... lift that thing. She said Arin will be able to use it if he has the Dazzling Dragon Sword with him. Someone said she's glad they managed to get in somehow, but she wondered what happen to Pete. Yuna said perhaps he got into a mess he can't get out of... ...or worst-case scenario, his true identity has been discovered and he's been captured. She said Yuna will proceed with the plan. Yuna said regardless of what happened to Pete... ...they're all traitors now, there's no turning back, they must help Charlene regain her position to clear their names, in the end, they're left with only one choice. [10]
A guard was struck fell to the ground. Yuna muttered quietly that the security isn't tight here, they must be really reliant on the Detect Crystal. Tower of Razel, fifth floor, the floor of the flame hallway. Yuna said they have a pretty high chance of success... ...thank goodness they have their guard down. At this time, someone said agreed. The two women's voices echoed off the walls. The tension in Arin's group that had been relaxed became tense again. Sez said damn, these useless guards... ...she better instill someone discipline in them, how dare they let intruders get so far. Yuna was surprised and shouted she recognize them, they must be... ...Sez Hetris, the Red Witch,... ...and Lucy Ferlein, the Violet Witch. Sez said a bunch of cute rats, she saw, she never thought there'd really be intruders, thanked to them, they had to go through the trouble of searching the entire tower, now, it's time to make them pay for it. Yuna reached for the dagger in her arms and shouted crap, how did they find them, they can't possibly have gotten caught this quickly... Lucy snapped her fingers as if it was hilarious and said oh my, they're planning to fight them, in that case... Lucy said ...they'll show them the power of the Razel Knights. Dozens of knights who had been surrounding them appeared. The Razel Knights shouted charge and all started to rush at Arin's group. She simply extended her fists and attacked the Razel Knights with her bare hands. Lucy was surprised and shouted what... Sez also surprised and thought what was that, how can someone be so monstrous, she thought the tight space would render her huge sword useless, but she's taking down the knightly order using only her fists. Sez said she's... not a human, no human can exert such physical power. Lucy asked she could be a Sword Master, then they'd have sensed her unique mana, she was thinking of leading the knights on a simple search practice... ...but this is turning out to be more complicated than she thought. She lightly picked up a heavily armored knight and threw him aside and he shouted guh. A knight shouted ugh... how she could be so strong. Another knight shouted she's a complete monster. Yuna said she, let's run, it'll be a pain in the neck if the two witches intervene. She nodded. Suddenly she re-grabbed her sword. She raised her right hand above her head and shouted Flame Strike. The letters floated clearly above the sword. The Razel Knights were surprised. At the same time, a huge pillar of flame struck the ceiling of the hallway, causing a powerful explosion. The ceiling collapsed all at once as if an earthquake had occurred, shaking the entire area. A huge amount of stone fragments piled up like a mountain, forming a huge wall between the Razel Knights and Arin's group. The Razel Knights shouted they blocked the path, they're running away. Sez said there's no need to panic, the other side is a dead end, they've effectively trapped themselves in. Sez spread out her hands and said step aside. Heavy rocks rose into the air and were pushed to the left and right. The Razel Knights shouted whoa... Sez cleared the mountain of rubble in the blink of an eye... as expected from one of the Four Sorcerers. Sez was surprised. The previously blocked corridor was instantly cleared again. But there were no signs of intruders there. Instead, there was only a secret passageway exposed on one wall of the warehouse. Sez said huh. The Razel Knights shouted what's that, a secret passage. Sez said ...how the intruders do knew about a secret passage... ...that even they don't know about. Tower of Razel, fourth floor, the floor of ice and snow hallway. Yuna said let's get to the other passage before they catch up to them, they should come on. Someone shouted Y-Yuna, wait. Yuna looked back and said Arin, there's no time to waste-- Arin shouted something's wrong with her. She just stood there, groaning continuously with an expression on her face that made it seem like she might collapse at any moment. Yuna's face turned pale as she experienced creepy fear and shouted it's just like last time... Yuna thought wait, she didn't kill anyone this time either, that does mean... ...she'll go berserk again. The murderous look flowed from her eyes. Yuna was surprised and shouted Arin should run, she's-- She reached out to Arin. Yuna shouted Arin. [11]
Suddenly, she stretched out both hands. The sharp edge of the hands flew towards Arin's head. Yuna shouted Arin. Yuna tightly closed her eyes. Then, Yuna slowly opened her eyes. She hugged Arin's neck and buried her face in his chest. Arin asked her, she's hurt. Arin cautiously reached out his hand and asked what's wrong, hmm. She had a frightened look in her eyes like a weak and helpless girl, her moans gradually became quieter. Arin was embarrassed and asked ...her. Her expressionless face returned again, and she opened her mouth bluntly and answered ...she's fine now, everything is okay. Yuna thought having Arin by her side calmed her down again, it's... just a coincidence. She said she has held them back, let's hurry. Yuna was surprised and said oh, okay. Yuna said even if they use the secret passages, it's still a considerable distance to Tanin's Scepter, they've probably stationed guards everywhere by now, so they'll be pursued outside the secret passages... ...how in the world will get there... She spoke in a cold voice to Yuna, who was thinking hard that why she doesn't distract the guards and lure them to one place. Yuna said oh, that works... Yuna, who had been agreeing without thinking, suddenly came to her senses and asked a question. Yuna shouted ...wait, no, what she's talking about, she's saying she'll become a decoy, she does have any idea what that meant, if she get caught, she'll be subjected to all kinds of experiments. She said it's okay, she's invulnerable. She continued speaking calmly that Yuna just need to find Tanin's Scepter as soon as possible while she distract the guards... ...so that Charlene can reclaim her position as the Queen of Sorcery. Yuna was surprised. Yuna made an impression and thought what stubborn nonsense, just moments ago, she saw how tormented she was, but currently... ...they have no other choice... Yuna said ...she's sorry. She said Yuna don't say that, this is her job. Yuna said let's go, Arin. Arin said huh, she won't be coming with them. Yuna said no, they're splitting up. Arin and Yuna hurried down the hallway. She watched the backs of the two disappeared and thought she's so close, once Charlene regained her position as the Queen of Sorcery... ...she might be freed from this accursed body. Far away, guards rushed in behind her and they shouted there she's, intruder alert, everyone, come to the fourth floor. She thought that's why... ...she'll forsake her humanity... ...this one last time. Sez was embarrassed. Sez saw her and thought no way, she's really the same person she saw earlier. The guards shouted eek... ...aaagh, help. Aria even cut down the fleeing guards and they shouted argh. Sez thought earlier, she only knocked them out, but now... ...she's turned into a killing machine. Lucy said it's time for them to step in, Sez, they can't leave it to the Razel Knights any longer. Sez was frowned and said hmph... she really didn't want to step in if it could be helped. Sez took out a thick book with a bright red cover from inside her robe and said but she guessed they have no other choice now... Aria threw herself at Sez. Lucy thought she's quick and screamed urgently that Sez. But Sez wasn't flustered and said Lucy don't worry. The moment she reached her nose, Sez grabbed a page and tore it open, shouted, flame scroll, page 36, Incinerate. A single blast of flame shot up in a straight line, created a pillar of fire that instantly covered her. [12]
Sez tore the page again and said here came another one. Lucy said she knew her magic scroll would do the trick, Sez, it was a direct hit. Sez replied with a look of astonishment on her face that she thought Lucy spoke too soon. As soon as Sez finished speaking, she appeared. She was a hideous, disfigured monster, severely burned. Lucy said wow, she's a monster... she can't believe she's alive, what's even more shocking is that her wounds are healing. Sez said she must be a type of chimera with strong regenerative capablities. Sez prepared her next spell and said well, no matter... ...she'll freeze her alive. Sez's book opened with a swoosh, the scroll tore apart with a swoosh, and a loud voice echoed that ice scroll, page 28, Blizzard Storm. With Sez's shout, cold air gathered from all directions, countless ice crystals condensed, and soon blew in as a huge snow storm that froze everything. She twisted her body and hid behind the great sword, and a vast amount of mana flowed through the sword. Fire Wall and Flame Shield. As she used two magics at the same time, the flow of mana also accelerated. A shield of flames was created, blocking the ice storm. Lucy shouted in surprise at the sight that completely shattered the Blizzard Storm that wait, so her sword was enchanted after all, how could she use so much magic with an Enchanted Sword, she does have an endless reserve of mana. She said she will kill... her enemy. [12]
Sez shouted phantom scroll, page 37, Spectrum Force. A sharp scream erupted as a page of Sez's book was torn apart. Lucy shouted Consecutive Magic Arrows. Lucy also used her magic. Seven rainbow-colored rays and dozens of arrows of light rushed toward her front. It was a magical attack. She hid behind her greatsword. The rainbow flashes were all blocked by the blade. Most of the pouring arrows of light were also deflected. Lucy have hard complexion and shouted unbelievable... ...that thing can be used as a shield too. She approached Sez in one breath. Sez's eyes trembled violently at the sight of the giant blade and shouted attacking her again, she's so damn persistent. Sez opened the scroll book carelessly and began to rip out random pages and shouted tear at random. Lightning, flashes, flames, ice, storms. Torn pieces of paper scattered without mercy, and all kinds of attack magic poured down on her. The 'human' in her screamed in fear that she has reached her limit, if she use more mana in this state, she'll seriously die. The 'doll' in her was still indifferent and said that it doesn't matter, if she can't avoid it, then she must fight back with magic, death is not an option. Dozens of magic spells were activated, complementing each other and heading towards ultimate destruction. But Sez said shoot... how many magic scrolls she did used, what a waste of expensive scrolls, just wait until she get her hands on her, she'll start by dissecting her... A soft starter word escaped her lips that Anti-Magic Shell. A huge wave of mana spread out, forcing all magical actions back to nothing. Sez was surprised and thought all of the magic... ...is disappearing. Sez's brow furrowed and thought no way... Anti-Magic Shell, she did really cast the highest form of Eighth Circle magic using an Enchanted Sword. Sez hurriedly turned the pages of the book and said which page is the balance magic... She ran towards Sez. Sez tore the page and shouted ...found it. The storm raged, but she did not stop charging forward. Sez have hard complexion and thought she changed her course before she could even look up, from the start... she was never her target... Lucy was briefly exposed to the unexpected surprise attack. Lucy said huh. She cut Lucy. Sez let out a cry of horror that Lucy. A knight shouted g-graaah, die, the monster. She slashed the knights with her sword and they shouted agh. Hiding behind the knights, Sez blanked and looked at Lucy's dead body. Sez said she can't win... ...her magic doesn't work on her, and Lucy is dead, defeating that monster is impossible unless they have a Sword Master. Sez clenched one hand and said no, Raedi might stand a chance... Sez screamed ...Raedi, she fool, she should stop playing around and come here already. The timing was perfect, and a rather unpleasant reply came back that goodness, how dare Sez talk to her like that. The knights burst into shouts of joy that oh, Lady Raedi is here. Raedi's mouth opened wide and said what happened... ...Lucy's dead... ...and the knights are no better, the chimera is to blame for all of this. Aria grabbed her sword and flew towards Raedi. Even though Raedi was flustered, she responded right away. Raedi said Flame Strike. A huge pillar of fire blazed, but a heavy great sword split the pouring flames apart. Although her face was still expressionless, she was inwardly embarrassed. Raedi's appearance disappeared. Raedi said she saw... no wonder Sez and Lucy struggled against her. She thought she's hidden herself... ...she did use Invisibility spell. Without any sign of movement, a blue flash pierced her shoulder, and blood gushed out. She thought ...a flash of blue light. At the same time, her sword slashed at the direction where the flash of light had come from, but the blade cut through the air in vain. She thought she's able to use another form of magic while remaining invisible, impossible, casting two spells at once is unheard of... [13]
Raedi hid her body with her Invisibility magic and thought ...or so she might think, she must be confused, let her show her the power of Artifacts. [13]
Raedi said to her that a total of 12 Artifacts, which can only be created by a dragon, exist in the empire, she should feel honored, for she's about to show her the power of one such Artifact. She thought she's casting multiple spells without an Enchanted Sword... which meant she's using an Artifact, an Artifact that's capable of more than just Invisibility, it not only masked her appearance... but also her body temperature and the airflow created by her movements, and... Countless sparks began to pour down behind her back. She was surprised. She thought it's flame magic... Abandoning her defense, she threw herself into the hail of flames. The guards saw her and shouted they got her. Sez said no... ...she jumped into the fire since she can regenerate. She thought the enemy is in the direction of the incoming fire. She brought her sword down, slicing through the air in vain. She thought she doesn't sense anything, she can't feel her presence at all... ...but how, not even magic can erase her presence. Raedi looked at her, whose entire body was covered in red, scorched burns, thought she's incredibly fast, she dodged her attack by a hair's breadth, even though she knew it was coming, she must catch and dissect her, she must be confused, she's not masking her presence with magic, but with her personal technique. Raedi smiled coldly as she approached her secretly from behind and thought she saw, she used to be a Guild Master for a Guild of Thieves. Another flash of light pierced her abdomen. Someone shouted they should watch out, that chimera has incredible regenerative capabilities. She was troubled and thought she can still regenerate, but her body surpassed its limits long ago... she must break bones and cut through flesh... ...to quell this urge for destruction. She held her sword horizontally and thought the next attack will come anytime now, this time, she must strike her at the right time. A flash of light targeted her right knee. She charged forward in a straight line, creating a sword wind, and the blade slashed through the air with fierce force. She thought she got her this time, she felt it. A corpse appeared. It was one of the knights of Lazel whom she had killed earlier. She thought it's a decoy, she tricked her... A whisper was heard in her ears that what are use her incredible powers... Her head exploded. The wave of mana snapped her cervical spine and penetrated the inside of her skull, turning her brain into mush. Raedi said to Aria that ...if she blast her brain. Raedi said phew... The guards shouted they did it. Raedi ordered to a guard that he there, he should lend her his spear. The guard answered yes, Ma'am. Sez said with admiring eyes that she's the best, Raedi, and she's not even hurt... Sez's admiring gaze soon disappeared and asked ...huh... Raedi, who was looking down at her, suddenly grabbed one of the spear handles. Raedi began to stab the fallen her with her spear, accompanied by an eerie sound. Raedi ordered to the guard that he should bring her another one. The guard answered huh, ah, yes. [14]
Sez was speechless as she watched the blood and flesh splattering tragedy. Raedi sighed and said there, this should do. Sez asked a question mixed with reproach that Raedi do really have to go that far, her magic earlier should've been enough. Raedi pointed with her hand and said to Sez that nonsense, look. For a moment, Sez was startled. She squirmed. Sez saw her and said she's still alive. Raedi said a monster like this can regenerate even her brain, tying her up isn't enough to subdue her, something must be wedged between her joints to render her powerless. Sez looked at her with tired eyes and thought even so... ...how gruesome, Raedi seemed so apathetic about it. Raedi gestured to the nearby soldiers that they should drag this thing to her lab, but they do not take out the spears, she doesn't know if she can catch her a second time. The soldiers shouted understood. Raedi's gaze turned towards the huge great sword in the distance. Raedi thought this chimera aside, what a strange sword, it does have to be so big. Raedi touched the great sword lightly. Raedi's complexion hardened. Raedi said this... is not an ordinary Enchanted Sword. Sez was surprised and shouted what. Sez asked it's a Mystic Sword. Raedi stood up and anwered not, it's an Enchanted Sword... but its magic efficiency is too good, the only human capable of making such an exceptional Enchanted Sword is... ...Gaster Latnile from Karsel, it has to be him. Sez shouted and asked Gaster is the one who created that chimera, what he's planning. Raedi answered who knew, they have a lot of work ahead of them, first, let's get the immediate task over with, where's Psyche. [14]
Yuna thought a mere mage like her doesn't stand a chance against Psyche, but they must fight regardless, for her, who must be facing so many hardships right now... ...and for her survival. Sez said ...Lucy... was killed in battle. Psyche's eyes grew wide and shouted what. Psyche shouted impossible, the enemies she faced were nothing but a bunch of weaklings... Sez said they were up against a chimera made by Gaster, if it wasn't for Raedi, she would've been in danger too. Psyche shouted her goodness, poor Lucy... [15]
Sez said right... they'll focus on researching the chimera and the big sword, it's a good opportunity... to find the source of Archmage Gaster's power. [15]
Arin shouted she, Yuna. Arin thought they've been caught too... Arin's eyes fill with tears and said ...he miss her... Arin shouted nope, where's she and Yuna. Pete said they've been caught, he barely managed to find him, Arin, he knocked out the maid. Arin said then let's hurry and find she and Yuna. Pete's face suddenly distorted. Pete thought actually, he knew where they're... ...but they'll have to give up on saving her, this is the worst disaster ever in the history of the Tower of Razel, it'll take half a year's budget just to recover from the damage, worse, one of the Four Sorcerers has died, it's ridiculous to hope for her safety given everything that's happened, they've failed their mission. Arin smiled and said that will do, he can ask her to cut the band for him. Pete had a gloomy expression on his face. Arin shouted anyway, now that he escaped the bed... ...it's time to go rescue she and Yuna. Inside the vent, Pete thought he doubt Yuna or she'll mention his involvement, he's the only hope they have of being rescued, after all, the problem is Arin, unilke Yuna or Aria, he can't keep secrets, a few leading questions might be enough for him to spill everything he knew, thank goodness he wasn't locked up due to Lady Raedi's preferences, he doesn't seem to have talked about him either... [16]
Arin said they've to hurry up and save Aria. Pete answered in a soft voice that Arin should bear with him, they're almost there, he should turn right up ahead. Pete thought she and Yuna are probably confined within the Chamber of Sin, a cell designated for holding criminals, when the Four Sorcerers discover that Arin has gone missing, they'll investigate the Chamber of Sin, thinking he must've gone to rescue his friends first... ...however, they're not headed to the Chamber of Sin... ...but an empty storeroom, he'll finish him off inside the storeroom, then he'll return to his room and pretend to be asleep as if nothing happened, nothing will link to his death, there's enough time. The guard said that monstrous woman ravaged the cell, so the guards had to make a makeshift prison out of this secluded storeroom, but only a select few know about this... Pete said wait... ...the Chamber of Sin was destroyed... so the guard turned this place into a makeshift prison... Pete thought the two people who he thought were impossible to rescue... ...happen to be here of all places. The guard said at this rate, Pete will manage to save his friends and escape... how infuriating... The guard fell down. Arin asked Pete. Pete looked back and said it's going just as he planned, Arin should come on, let's go rescue them. Pete thought now that he's clearly implicated in the crime... ...he must escape this tower as soon as possible, once he get out of here, he can look for other solutions to dispel Charlene's curse, and to escape, he need her power. Arin smiled broadly and said hehe, he felt like a warrior who has come to rescue his captured comrades, let's pull of a heroic rescue and get out of the tower, he bet Yuna and she would love that. Arin shouted Yuna, she, he's here to rescue them. [17]
Arin thought this wasn't part of the plan, after rescuing Yuna and her... ...they were supposed to make a grand escape from the tower, then, with the help of the two people he saved... ...he was going to defeat their enemies, finally, they would have restored justice after driving out the Fake Queen, that was how it was supposed to go, so why... Arin said where's her... ...she's also in this room. Arin suddenly flinched in surprise. [18]
She was hanging on the wall. Dozens of steel wires were draped across her body. The chains were as small as fingers, piercing her skin and tearing her muscles, creating a gruesome tangle. Arin looked at her. Arin sank to the ground, a groan almost escaping from his lips that aaah. She said ah... ...Arin... Arin shouted Pete, he found her, he should hurry and come over. But Pete was lying there motionless, probably unconscious. Someone said to Arin that phew, the chimera hasn't been freed yet, thanked goodness they rushed over via portal as soon as they recieved the report, why he's making such a big fuss anyway, no matter how much he struggle... ...he'd never have escaped this tower. Sez and Psyche were by the door. Sez said let's hurry and get this over with, they still have a mountain of documents to go through, according to the chimera, their mission is to assassinate her majesty, apparently, the mastermind behind all this is Karsel Kingdom, but who knew the priest from Harnian was in on it too. Arin was angry and shouted to Raedi that it's her, she's the ones responsible for hurting Yuna and her. Arin lay on the floor and thought it's them, they're the ones who tortured she and Yuna... ...and inflicted pain so horrible that they can't continue their journey. [18]
Karsearin said ...what's going on, where's her. Karsearin shouted her, Yuna, Pete, where they're. Karsearin began to dig through the pile of stones frantically. Karsearin was sobbing's eyes and said her... ...he hoped she's not buried under a pile of rocks... [19]
Rosarahim lifted the stones into the air. Rosarahim was surprised to saw someone and said there they're, he must be Arin's human friends, right. [20]
The steel room and chains that had been restraining she had already been removed, and the fragments of the collapsed the Tower of Razel, a massive pile of stones, had disappeared. Arin asked to Pete that she, Yuna, they're okay. Arin asked she's really okay, Yuna's still unconscious. She answered she's fine, she felt a lot better thanked to Arin and Pete. Karstein asked so... ...why he's refusing to come back home, Arin. Arin answered he must return her to her original form. Karstein asked so it's because of a promise him made with a human. Arin answered yes. Karstein thought what a pain in the neck, this kid... ...he's became more entwined with humans than he expected. [20]
Karstein asked so... ...she's Aria, the one that Arin mentioned, she should come closer. She answered yes, Sir. She approached Karstein, answering shortly. Karstein said goodness, she's so tall, she should kneel down before him. She answered yes, Sir... Karstein used his magic on her, who was kneeling quietly, and examined her. Karstein thought Arin promised to revert her original form, that does mean she's not human. Karstein was surprised and suddenly muttered that what kind of messed-up fool created this. Arin wondered. After a while, Karstein opened his mouth as if in disbelief that this is... ...the Almighty Creature. Pete was surprised and shouted what, she's... the Almighty Creature. Erkas looked at him and asked indifferently that what's with that human. Helmernod said what's wrong with him. Karstein said to Pete that ...why he does look so shocked, he seemed to know something. Pete swallowed. Pete opened his mouth cautiously to Karstein that he'll tell him everything... ...noble dragon. Pete said ...and so, according to Charlene... ...her physical body was modified into the Vessel of the Soul, a forbidden sorcery used to create dragons... Someone asked what. Karstein asked Pete should stop right there, what was that about the Vessel of the Soul. Pete said ah, yes, the Vessel of the Soul is a forbidden sorcery used to create dragons... Karstein smirked. Karstein suddenly burst into laughter that hahaha, the Vessel of the Soul is a forbidden sorcery used to create dragons. Pete asked huh... Rosarahim shouted wahaha, humans have such silly misunderstandings. Archiad said the story has been told by those with short lifespans, it could easily be relayed inaccurately. Pete asked excuse him... ...pardon him for asking, but this does mean the Vessel of the Soul is not the forbidden sorcery that created dragons. Karstein asked human child, the one called Aria does... ...have any features related to dragons. Pete was surprised. Pete thought Karstein have a point, he had no doubt since it was Charlene who told him... ...this is... ...an opportunity. Pete said o venerable beings of eternal existence... ...they mortals have yet to recieve the full truth, Karstein would graciously impart his wisdom... to this young and humble soul. Pete knelt down. Karstein asked where a kid did like him learn to speak like an old fart. Karstein looked back and spoke with a soft smile on his lips that well, this is a good opportunity, he two should also come and listen, it's something every hatchling has to learn eventually, they should come Arin, Eorin. Karstein said well, then, he shall start the story from the very beginning. [21]
Karstein asked so... ...she's Aria, the one that Arin mentioned, she should come closer. She answered yes, Sir. She approached Karstein, answering shortly. Karstein said goodness, she's so tall, she should kneel down before him. She answered yes, Sir... Karstein used his magic on her, who was kneeling quietly, and examined her. Karstein thought Arin promised to revert her original form, that does mean she's not human. Karstein was surprised and suddenly muttered that what kind of messed-up fool created this. Arin wondered. [22]
After a while, Karstein opened his mouth as if in disbelief that this is... ...the Almighty Creature. Pete was surprised and shouted what, she's... the Almighty Creature. Erkas looked at him and asked indifferently that what's with that human. Helmernod said what's wrong with him. Karstein said to Pete that ...why he does look so shocked, he seemed to know something. Pete swallowed. Pete opened his mouth cautiously to Karstein that he'll tell him everything... ...noble dragon.

Karstein said well, then, he shall start the story from the very beginning. Someone raised a hand and said so... Arin said ...just when... ...Karstein was going to talk about her. [22]
Arin looking dissatisfied asked Karstein that how long he's going to ramble on about such difficult topics, he should hurry up and tell him about her. Karstein said Arin, he little... Karstein said ...Arin was listening to him, after all... all right, he'll wrap it up quickly. Arin glared at Karstein as if he was dissatisfied and replied so, what's his point, he can turn her into a human. Karstein said fine, he'll get to the point. Pete said Arin... Karstein blurted it out that it's impossible, how Arin can transform something into a human when it was never a human to start with. Kiadrys asked what if... they cast a permanent Polymorph spell on her, it would be difficult for the humans, but not them... Karstein chuckled and said Kiadrys should try it and see if it works. Kiadrys used his polymorph spell on her. Kiadrys said it's not working. Karstein said as shoddy as it's, it's still the Almighty Creature at the end of the day, it's completely immune to enchantment and mind control, physical magic might work, but there's no point since it can regenerate, but how they did grant divine power, it's only a speck, but still, humans in this day and age should be unable to harness divine power... Erkas said he felt the energy of a White Dragon, it must be Grateus, they probably used the divine power ingained within the Dragon Heart. Someone said oh, that explained it, geez, why they did have to make it so flimsy, they had made it properly, it would have been easier to recognize... Pete thought how the dragons could talk so casually about... ...a fellow dragon killed by humans. After grumbling for a moment, Karstein turned to Arin and said he should just give up, that thing can't become a human. Arin shouted what. Arin replied as if he was being ridiculous that but Charlene said it's possible, she said there have been cases where they successfully reverted to being human. Seton thought magic on this scale... ...it could be her. [23]
Charlene said i-in any case, the former Queen of Sorcery began studying that forbidden sorcery, she speculated that the Vessel of the Soul might be an incomplete spell, given that the outcome was so different from the nature of dragons, she then tried to transform herself into the Vessel of the Soul... and failed, after all, a true Vessel of the Soul is not built from a human body... ...a human soul was much too weak to contain the Vessel of the Soul, only creatures with massive divine bodies transcending humanity could bear the Vessel of the Soul, one such example is dragons, this was probably the reason she assumed that the forbidden sorcery was used to creat a dragon, the result of fusing all kinds of creatures... to enhance the human soul and mold it into the vessel... ...is her, however, as the divine body grew stronger, the existing soul will lose its place... ...eventually, she'll lose her identity, left with only an instinct to destroy. Yuna said if what Charlene said is true... Yuna asked ...why she's still okay, according to Charlene's explanation, her body should have broken down long ago. Charlene answered previously, she wouldn't have a clue either, but now, she has an inkling... ...and it is... Charlene's index finger moved to Arin and asked ...him, he can take a guess, he was always nearest to Aria, and he turned out to be a dragon, she get the feeling that she could maintain the Vessel of the Soul because she had a dragon's mana by her side. Karstein let out a gloomy voice that wrong, that would be impossible, even for a dragon. Charlene asked pardon. Karstein was still muttering to himself in a gloomy tone that crap... ...he remembered something unpleasant. Suddenly, Arin clapped his hands and said oh, he get it, that does mean his blood is helping her. Kiadrys asked that's all Arin have been thinking. Arin answered yep, what about it. Karstein said with relief in his voice that right, this is the Arin they know, they can relax for now. Karstein said indeed... Arin said since back when they first met, he has been wondering why she, who was on the brink of death, suddenly because all right, it must have been that time when a meteor hit him... and caused his mouth to bleed. The dragons started asking questions at the same time that what Arin did just say... ...a meteor hit him... ...and caused him to bleed. [24]
Karstein thought hmm, that does mean they have to go to the imperial capital, to stop the incident from happening again... ...they must quickly revert that thing into a human. In the Aur, Yuna turned her head. Her body was perfection itself. Yuna shocked and thought why she does felt... ...so depressed all of a sudden. [25]
Karstein thought hmm, that does mean they have to go to the imperial capital, to stop the incident from happening again... ...they must quickly revert that thing into a human. In the Aur, who's wrapped her body in a towel, her body was perfection itself. Yuna shocked and thought why she does felt... ...so depressed all of a sudden. [26]
In the Shahar, the Imperial Palace was a mess, and there had been some pretty fierce fighting, with parts of it destroyed. [27]
A smile appeared on Karstein's face for a moment, as if to say that it couldn't be true that well, it doesn't matter either way, even if the Dragon Slayers make it to his lair by sheer luck, they will never reach the sealed creature, so they can take their time finishing up their business. Arin asked business, what business. Karstein asked Arin asked him to turn that kid into a human, remember, he did forget already. [28]
In the guest room, she patted Arin while giving him a lap pillow. Arin said her, she'll return to being human soon, he can't wait. She had a cold, expressionless face and said yes, her too. Karstein looked at Arin and her and his expression wasn't as peaceful as hers. Karstein secretly sent Kiadrys a Magic Message which is a type of spell that transmits a message that cannot be heard by others that Arin and she have grown too close, he'll agree. Karstein's voice ringing in Kiadrys head and he nodded his agreement without letting on that if his fears were correct, this is not good. Karstein gave a message that they can safely confirm their suspicions were true, all the signs are there. Kiadrys' brow furrowed slightly at Karstein's assertion and gave a message that first, they must persuade Arin, the laws prevent them from doing as they please, even if he's a hatchling. Karstein gave a message that Arin will understand why he must erase his current dream... ...when he's having so much fun. Kiadrys gave a message that if Arin can't, then they must resort to force, to him, this moment is but a small fragment in his life, later, he won't even remember that any of this happened to him... ...though a few remnants may remain in his subconscious... Karstein frowned slightly and gave a message that hmm, he wanted to avoid it at all costs, but they're left with no choice... ...well, they've nothing to do now, right, shall they take a nap. It seemed that Seton felt sorry for Charlene as he looked at her and opened his mouth that she should wake Arin up, he's the least likely to bite. Arin was fast asleep with his head resting on her lap. Charlene gestured wildly toward her and said she should wake Arin up, please. Sure enough, she spoke to the sleeping Arin right away that he should wake up, Charlene is here. Arin stood up and shouted Charlene. Arin shouted Charlene did find a way to turn her back into a human. Arin shouted what do they've to do. Charlene opened her mouth with difficulty that Arin, about that... ...there's something she misunderstood. Charlene continued speaking cautiously, lowering her voice even further that she did find records about the Vessel of the Soul, but it doesn't mention a way to turn her back into a human. Suddenly Arin took on a serious expression and his voice was fierce that what Charlene does meant, Arin can't live as a human. Pete and Yuna's faces hardened. Seton's complexion also hardened. Karstein glanced at Arin. She comforted Arin and said he should calm down. She asked the question in a calm tone as if it were someone else's business that she could explain in detail, Charlene. Charlene opened her mouth calmly that ...she's sure she remember the side effects of being a Vessel of the Soul, so she won't repeat herself, to the previous Queen of Sorcery, reverting to her original state did not mean turning back into a human, her goal was to revert to something identical to being a human. Yuna wondered and asked identical... to being a human, it's that the same thing. After catching her breath, Charlene continued that for a Vessel of the Soul, most of the physical body morphed into a different entity, the previous Queen of Sorcery knew next to nothing about the Almighty Creature in the first place, instead, she focused on studying imperial authority. Charlene continued speaking that let her being by explanning what the seals were, regarded as a form of mana reservoirs, the seals were made of a special material that can store a vast amount of mana, the previous Queen of Sorcery called it... ...multidimensional shared existence, abnormal compression of mana in a limited mass goes against the laws of the universe, so, she concluded that the material must exist in multidimensional space. Charlene embarrassed and opened her mouth that it may sound like a far-fetched theory, but there's no other way to explain the seal. Yuna asked how much mana is stored within a seal for the previous Queen of Sorcery to propose this multidimensional theory. Charlene answered she can't be sure... ...but based on various experiments, the mana within a seal... Charlene continued that ...is comparable to dozens of dragons. Charlene started by explaining that there was indeed a vast amount of mana within the seal, if they could tap into it, then the Gaianes Empire would become the biggest magical empire in history, however, there was no way of knowing how to access that reserve of mana, let alone uncovering the original material of the jewel, "inanimate substances can neither gain nor lose more than a set amount of mana," that's one of the absolute laws of magic, naturally, the previous Queen of Sorcery had no idea how this was possible... After a while, Karstein broke the silence and opened his mouth in a cold voice that human... she's missing one important point, inanimate substances that can store and releast mana for use... already exist in reality. Karstein continued that he's talking about the core of a dragon's mana... ...the Dragon Heart. [29]
Karstein said he saw, the former Queen was exploting the nature of Manadium. Karstein said Manadium is the official name of the element making up the seals. Karsenian said so, rather than reverting to the former Queen's human state, she sealed her own abilities. Kiadrys said if the Almighty Creature is sealed, only the imperfect human part is left. Rosarahim said reproduction will be out of the question, but it's not a bad idea. Karstein said the former Queen was a human to start with, the sealing of her abilities would have bound her physical form to its predominant trait, which is human. Someone said oh, that's it, it wasn't anything special. Another said for a second, he was shocked that humans had advanced so much. Arin became dazed. Arin shouted to Karstein that so, that does mean she can become human. Karstein said she cannot become a human, but that will not impede her from living her life, it's no different from living as a human, really. Someone shouted really. Yuna thought she might be able to live as a human... ...but it wouldn't be the life that she envisioned, it wouldn't be the life that she lost... Charlene lowered her head weakly and muttered that, she's sorry she couldn't be of much help... She said it's enough for her, she didn't think she could completely go back to how things were before anyway. Karstein and Kiadrys realized their mistake and kept their mouths shut. Arin's face turned half ashen as he noticed that there was something strange in the atmosphere around him and asked her. She said she really is fine. but... Aria had a blank expression on her face, without even a hint of emotion, and her voice was dry that ...let her smile, let her laugh and cry, that's enough for her. Arin raised his head forcefully and said okay... Karstein waved his hand in the air and said well, then, let's go. Karstein simply waved his hand, and yet a portal formed in an instant. On one side of the cave, Arin jumped into the treasure mountain to choose a new sword for her and looked at her and asked her, she did lose her big sword, what about this one. She, who had no interest in treasure, said to Arin that she doesn't know how to handle a blade like that, she has only ever used broadswords.. Arin picked up something like a giant kitchen knife and asked oh, really, what about this, it looked similar. She answered in a numb voice that it does look more useful than the previous one. She said but she won't need that sword anymore... ...since she no longer have a reason to pick up a sword. Arin asked that's right. [30]
Darios thought Gaster's experiment... ...Arin... [31]
Karstein thought in the first place... ..it's impossible for someone who cannot use mana to enter this space, those who were powerful enough to navigate through the dangerous obstacles to reach here... ...whould never being along an ordinary person who would only weigh them down, nor would they hand over vast power to them, dragons and mana were inseparably connected, mages and priests use mana, the chimera's existence hinges on mana. [32]
At her side, Arin looked up at the sky and said of course, his mom was stronger than anyone. [33]
Arin buried his face deeper into her arms. Arin said her... ...there's no way a strong dragon like his mom... was devoured... ...this has to be a dream, right, dragons dream all the time, how can any of this be real... [34]
Eldicreature saw she and her party leaving the forest without any resistance, as if the powders had not yet discovered them and he said it seemed like he has bigger fish to fry. Suddenly, an eerie feeling crossed the back of Rosarahim's head. Rosarahim shouted everyone, they should get down. Immediately, a thick, eerie flash of light passed by. Charlene was surprised to see the pit in front of her. Across from Charlene, she blocked her path, blocking the flash, and she saw the incredible heat searing her hands, arms, shoulders, and she said th-thanks... she saved her... She responded coldly that they might not escape at this rate, Charlene, please use her magic. Charlene nodded. Charlene raised both hands. Charlene chanted a spell that rise, currents from the abyss... ...the source of power flowing in the depths of the sea. In an instant, a huge void opened up behind Charlene and a massive amount of mana stream poured down and she shouted Grand Stream. The mana current covered Eldicreature's particles rushing towards them, and they were all caught up in it and started to be torn to pieces. Pete who had been watching opened his mouth wide and said Charlene... really was the Queen of Sorcery... ...the creature's parts weren't approaching them anymore. Charlene ran towards her and shouted her arm... She bit Arin's collar and said Charlene don't worry about her. Yuna watched Arin dangling from her mouth and thought it's just her of their was relationship growing more and more abnormal... [35]
Zahadrian thought Karsenian's son... seemed pretty shaken up, the death of his family members was hard for a hatchling to swallow, and next to her, Arin was bowing his head gloomily. [36]
A majestic voice echoed in the headed of Seton and his party that human children... ...who were nestled in Arin's dream. The voice rang that Arin was a child of their kind, she left him in their case. At that moment, light rose behind Zahadrian. Brilliantly shining golden jewels descended upon Seton and his group, includeing Yuna, and Zahadrian said here's a token of their contract. Zahadrian's voice continued that a reward for taking care of a dragon child. Charlene's voice trembled that this was... ...a Dragon Heart. Zahadrian stared at her, who's holding Arin and left a soft message that she should take care of him. Zahadrian flew up again and the soft voice she left behind echoed faintly that please. [37]
Arin was standing in a bright place. Clearly, all the objects seem to exist before Arin's eyes, but strangely, he doesn't feel their presence and he asked huh, where he's. Darkness came upon Arin and he asked huh... who else he's missing. At this moment, she touched Arin's shoulder. She pushed Arin down and made him to collapse. Arin shouted ...oh... ...her. She ran into the darkness and Arin shouted no, her, she doesn't go there. Arin thought he can't lose Aria too, he has to run, run... Someone said ...run... and she saw him. A dazzling light emanated from Arin's body. Someone screamed ...stop, and a dazzling red light emanated from somewhere. [38]
People were in the cave. Yuna looked embarrassed and asked what's this place, a cave. Pete looked around in confusion and asked they were surrounded by the Almighty Creature... that was about to kill them... Arin spoke in a very small, thin voice that this place... Arin said ...was his home. Seton suddenly shouted in surprise that Arin's home, he's saying this was a dragon's lair. Yuna had a blank expression and thought that meant they're in the Al Kreed Mountains, they did teleport here all the way from the empire. Seton, who was quietly looking at Arin's blank expression, suddenly bit his lip and thought so, this was the power of a dragon, huh... People came out of the cave. Seton turned to Charlene and asked well... what now. Seton said he's thinking of heading back to his hometown... ...that's to Libeid. Yuna said they've nowhere to go anyway, so they'll follow Seton. Pete also gave his opinion that he'll return to the temple, Libeid was on the way, so he'll join Seton. Charlene hesitated. Charlene's voice trailing off and said as for her... ...she must return to her people, as the Queen of Sorcery, she has a duty to fulfill. A soft, regretful smile appeared on Seton's lips and he said that's so... Someone greeted Charlene in a soft voice that then they must go their separate ways. Three months later. [39]
