In the garden, Ione asked Pluto, where he's going today. Pluto answered ... he told her not to call him that, her highness. Ione grabbed Pluto's right arm and said no one's around so it's fine, so, shere he's going today. Sernian said she should come here, Ione, she mustn't bother Sir Pluto. Ione said to Sernian that mother. Gaster and Latisse looked at them. ^[5]

Season 1[]

In 304 AC, at here in Serkarsel, Karsel Kingdom of the Six Nations Alliance of Heid, while Arin looks around the city for a while, the carriage came up to the gates of Serkarsel, and the five soldiers who were standing in front of the gates that saw Darios' face and holding spears bend their waists at right angles and sent them into the palace. Arin was spellbound as he looked at the palace gate covered in gold leaves and decorated with various decorations. Reyses said to Arin with a faint smile that this was his home from now on. And she added a word quietly that for the time being, she meant. The Central Palace of Serkarsel. A huge mural depicting all kinds of human figures and natural scenes fills the ceiling. Arin said whoa. Arin can also saw a huge space called 'Hall' where stone pillars thicker than oak trees that have grown for over 200 years were lined up in a row. Arin looked around the palace while being guided by Reyses. The purpose was to teach everyone to become familiar with the shape of the royal palace. Reyses said to Arin that first, please take a look around the palace, he must familiarize himself with the ways in the palace, stay focused and drill it all into his head. After looking around most of the places, he was finally able to get directions to his room. In front of the large door decorated in detail with beautiful gold leaves, Reyses blinked for the last time. Reyses said from today onwards, he's no longer Arin, he's Princess Ione. Reyses asked he does understand, Arin. Arin answered yes. Reyses angry and shouted it's wrong, he mustn't answer, she said he's Princess Ione, not Arin. Arin asked oh, that's how it works. Reyses angry and said he's Ione, do not forget that he's the Princess of the Kingdom of Karsel. Reyses asked he does understand, Arin. He doesn't answered. Reyses sighed and said good, at least he's not brainless, then, please relax until dinnertime. Reyses left as if satisfied. Arin answered okay. Arin said oh, so this was the room he'll be staying in. Arin opened the door. Arin began to look around the room. It was a room surrounded by walls of pure white marble. Many paintings and expensive-looking furniture decorated the interior. Arin frantically looked around the room, comparing things he had only heard about with reality. Arin shouted wooow. Arin surpirsed and shouted it's full of cool things. An object that was smooth, has a thin snout, and has a flower in it. Arin said so this was a flower vase. There was also a strange object hanging on the wall that showed Arin's face. Arin saw a mirror and said whoa, what's this, it's so small and cute. It was in the meantime. He found a portrait of a girl with red hair. Arin said huh, it's his face. The words written in one corner of the picture caught his eyes. In commemoration of Princess Ione el Karsel and her noble beauty. It looked like a portrait of a person named Princess Ione. Arin said oh, so this was a portrait of Princess Ione, they do look alike. He was constantly comparing mirrors and portraits. Suddenly there was a knocking sound. Arin said yay, it's his dinner. Arin, who was about to make a fuss, startled. Arin thought oh, right, he almost forgot, remember to be dignified. After adjusting his appearance, he opened his mouth gracefully. Arin said they may bring it in. It was a time when he was secretly satisfied with his acting skills. The door opened and a black-haired maid in her early 20s came in, dragging a silver table on wheels. An amazing smell lingered at the tip of Arin's nose. The maid shouted oh, her, he look exactly like her, actually, he look even more dignified than Princess Ione. The maid said oh right, she should introduce herself first, she's Mina, she's Princess Ione's maid. Mina started chatting as she circled around Arin. Mina said she heard he's a boy, his hair's super nice though, ooh, his skin too, what he does wash his hair with, wow, he's so skinny, his waist was thinner than hers, oh, wow, there's not a single hair on his legs, ah, his lips are all rosy too. Thanks to this, even Arin's head seemed to be spinning. Arin thought ugh, what's with this maid, how can she chatter away like this, his head was spinning, it's making him feel really dizzy. Mina said so, in other words, she's the only maid who knew his identity, the other maids won't serve him, and just in case of any accidents at the palace. Mina wraps her arms around Arin's shoulders. Mina said they must always stick together. Arin thought this human, she prattled for a good 30 minutes when she could've said it in a few lines. At this time, a rumbling sound is heard from Arin's stomach. Mina regretted it and smiled and said, oops, sorry, she talked too much, huh, she was just so fascinated. Mina said right, he must be starving. Then Mina opened the lid first and said let't eat. There was roast chicken there. Arin thought chicken. Arin shouted yes. After dinner, Mina takes Arin into a dark hallway. Arin asked what was this place. Mina knocked on a door. A middle-aged man in his 40s wearing a jet black robe with sharp eyes opened the door and said she's late. ^[2]

The man with sharp eyes immediately placed his hand on Arin's neck and muttered something for a long time. A blue glow came from his hands. Afterwards, a blue light appeared behind Arin and then disappeared. The man said good, his magic worked perfectly. Arin said what magic. Arin, who was just opening his mouth, was taken aback. Arin said huuuh, his voice, his voice was all shrill and high-pitched, it's weird. Mina said oh her god, he really sound like Princess Ione now. Mina looked at the middle-aged man with admiration and said thank him, Mr. Latnile. Latnile also answered confidently that now everyone will believe this child was Princess Ione. In the room where Mina took Arin, in addition to the middle-aged man, Reyses and a sturdy young man with black hair were also standing there. While Arin tested his voice, Reyses paid tribute to the middle-aged man that incredible as always, she heard it's difficult to cast a Voice Change spell so perfectly. The man said the magic spell itself isn't difficult, the challenge was in how well they remember the voice they're changing it to, but that's not a problem for him, he has heard the princess's voice since she was little. Suddenly the man asked this should be enough to fool them, right, Pluto. The black-haired young man called Pluto also looked satisfied. Pluto said he really does resemble her. Pluto asked he'll be a stand in for just a day or two at most so this much should be fine, right, Gaster. Arin, who was listening to the conversation between the two, suddenly felt interested. Arin thought Gaster and Pluto, right, Darios told him about them in his stories. Arin shouted and asked the guy in the black hood must be Gaster, the mage of Karsel, and the black-haired guy must be Pluto, the vice-captain of the order of Karsel. Mina, who was startled, quickly corrected his words. Mina said to Arin that he should adress them as "Misters". Gaster and Pluto looked at Arin in confusion. Pluto asked to Arin that hmm, waitm he know their names. Gaster asked to Arin that he heared he were uninformed about the world, where he did hear about them. Arin answered it's from Darios, he heard him all killed a dragon together. At that moment, a bitter smile appeared on the lips of the two people. Gaster let out a laugh. Gaster said hoho, he saw, if he heard it directly from him, then what he know was close to the truth. Pluto said according to the people at the local bar, he's a superhuman who ripped the dragon's wing off with a single blow and caused it to fall. Gaster said and he apparently smashed the dragon's head with Meteor Strike, if he had really mastered a ninth circle spell, why he would has gone through the trouble. Arin was puzzled. Arin thought for some reason, they don't seem to be in a good mood, strange, he's sure Karstein told him that, humans kill dragons just to attain a title and satisfy their greed. Arin asked excuse him, they two weren't proud of being called Dragon Slayers. Gaster let out something that was close to a complaint. Gaster said well, sure, they're proud, but it's not exactly something to boast about, they still have trouble sleeping just thinking about those days. Pluto continued that people thought they can easily take down a dragon or two, geez, damn it, they should see one for themselves. Gaster said he wouldn't understand just hearing about it, how terrifying its massive body was. Pluto strongly agreed with Gaster's grumbling voice. Pluto said sigh, Darios just had to see for himself. Arin looked at their reaction and it seemed like they were quite scared of it. Arin thought hmm, sounds like it was quite frightening. Suddenly, Arin remembered something else that puzzled him. Arin thought but, what did they mean by "fool them" earlier. Arin went back to his room, puts on his pajamas, lied down on the bed, and thought that he should wait and saw how things went, or he should run off now, but mom might find him if he were to transform in such a crowded city, nothing's particularly concerning right now, oh, they did said they'll be going to the Batran Kingdom, he'll decide along the way then. One week later, Arin left Serkarsel and set out for the Batran Kingdom, escorted by about 50 cavalrymen. ^[6]

Season 2[]

The next day. Karsel Kingdom. Latisse asked oh, Pluto, it's been a while, when he did return to Karsel. Pluto neatly adjusted his attire towards the king and formally bowed and said greetings, his Majesty, he, Pluto Croword, knight of Karsel, have only just returned, he returned using Gaster's Warp Spell. Latisse sighed and said that's enough, formal greetings don't suit Pluto, he heard he was coming back and wanted to see how he was doing, so, he heard about the situation from Gaster, since he's a Dragon Slayer, 100,000 Imperial Soldiers are a piece of cake, right. Pluto raised his head firmly and said please review the book of military strategy again, his Majesty. Latisse said since Darios and Karsel's regular army are currently away on a campaign, the only force he can depend on is the order of darkness under Pluto's command, they must stop 100,000 soldiers with just 10,000, he knew how strong he's... but he should be careful, he's like a son to him, after all. Pluto said likewise... he's like a father to him... now and for always, rest assured, his Majesty, death does not come easily for a great man, he does look like he'll be offed so easily. A smile appeared on Latisse's lips. Latisse said right... thanked him, Pluto. One of Gaster's many laboratories. The three people sat in a circle at a small circular table. Gaster spoke first that now, then... ...let them get this meeting started. ^[7]

Season 3[]

Someone shouted hail the valiant heroes who stood against the empire's tyranny... ...and won a glorious victory, hail the Dragon Slayers. Someone shouted hail the Silver Knight. Pluto shook his head, his arms hanging over the balcony and muttered to himself that of course, Darios is the only one who's becoming incredibly popular amid all this, ugh, his head, he did drink too much. Someone called him that there he's Sir Pluto. Pluto turned his head and asked what brought her out here, she should be enjoying the party, Princess Ione. Ione said she's glad he has returned safely, Pluto. Pluto said it's been a while Ione called him by his name. Ione gently hugged Pluto's right arm and leaned her whole body against him. Pluto was confused, wondering why this was happening all of a sudden and said came on, Ione should let go of his arm, he doesn't want Vera to get the wrong idea. Ione replied that this isn't enough to make Vera jealous. Pluto said Ione don't seem like her usual self today. Ione said her wedding date has been set. Pluto asked wedding, with who. Ione said Prince Farzar, first in line for the throne of the Arasnan Kingdom. Pluto asked Farzar wasn't nothing more than a marriage candidate, when Ione did decide to marry him. Pluto said more importantly, why Farzar, he's a blockhead and a womanizer to boot, so everyone always bad-mouths him... why Ione did choose a fool like him. Ione answered a blockhead... and a womanizer.. ...who everyone bad-mouths. Ione replied with a smile that it sounds just like him, Pluto. Pluto frowned that hey, Ione, he was trying to set the tone here... Ione, who had been smiling, stopped it and opened her mouth in a playful voice that Farzar is the heir to the Arasnan Kingdom, he's not someone a mere knight like Pluto should speak so casually of. Likewise, Pluto responded playfully that hmph, the Arasnan Kingdom, so what, the four of them can raze it to the ground. Pluto asked that Ione do know who old Latisse wanted, right. Ione didn't answer, but just turned her gaze and looked down quietly. Pluto said why not Darios, he get that he's stubborn, prim, and gets on Ione's nerves... but Prince Farzar has nothing on him. Ione burst out laughing at the sight of Pluto speaking so earnestly that ahaha, how he can compare someone who's worse than an orc to the strongest knight on the continent, but that's what she liked about Farzar, he's worse than an orc. Suddenly Ione's voice changed to a soft and gloomy tone, quite different from her usual clear and refreshing tone that a fool like Prince Farzar is easy to manipulate, he has no interest in politics and will abandon himself to pleasure, the Arasnan Kingdom will fall into her hands, she'll become a Queen, the ruler, marriage is nothing but a meant to an end. Looking at Ione's cold expression, Pluto felt a pang in his heart and thought how she did end up like this, he'd better reason with her some more. Pluto spoke passionately that d-doesn't make Darios the better choice, he's competent, handsome, buff... he has so much to offer, plus he really cared for him. Ione asked what about him Pluto. Ione's angry cry erupted that if she choose her, Pluto can rule Karsel- no, the entire Six Nations Alliance of Heid, she'll devote herself to him, it isn't her face pretty enough. Pluto apologized that sorry... he can't help how he feel, but Ione, she said she'll become a Queen, right, that doesn't give her all the more reason to choose Darios, honestly, he's easy to take advantage of. Ione was angry and tried to keep her cool that Pluto is really saying that for her sake. Ione turned around and said Sir Darios won't do. Ione looked back and said Darios is too noble of a knight, she's not wicked enough to keep pretending in front of him. Ione said she's leaving, it was a pleasant conversation, Sir Pluto. Ione disappeared. Pluto sighed and said well... that sobered him up, that was more exhausting than most battles. Pluto leaned against the railing and said hey, he heard Ione, he should stop hiding and come out now, he Silver doof. On one side of the balcony, in a small space shrouded in darkness, Darios, a beautiful young man with silver blond hair shining brilliantly in the pure white moonlight, looked at Pluto with a frown and said that was harsh... Pluto clearly knew he was nearby... Pluto said harsh, how, said the guy watching the moon and wallowing in self-pity instead of enjoying the party, he's always brooding in dark, gloomy places, he's wrong. Darios said no... ...Pluto is right, he's no noble knight... Pluto said see, wallowing in self-pity again, ugh, he should just go in and attend to the nobles. The next morning, Pluto passed through the marble corridors and arrived at a magnificent door made of cedar. A maid announced Pluto's arrival according to court etiquette that Count Croword, better known as Sir Pluto, has arrived. The red-haired man who appeared to be in his mid-forties, the King of the Karsel Kingdom, Latisse el Karsel, spoke at the head of a long table that must have been at least several meters long in the middle of the hall that he's late, Pluto, he did enjoy the banquet last night. The girl with the ruby hair, Ione el Karsel, spoke with a natural smile as if she had no recollection of last night that he should come in, Sir Pluto. Pluto said as he sat down on the chair that why Latisse did summon them this morning, his Majesty, surely... it's not simply to enjoy breakfast together. Latisse said he should enjoy breakfast... yes, he wished that was the case, however, another problem has arisen, he's deeply sorry for asking this of their nation's heroes when Pluto have only just returned, but he must suppress the rebel forces, Karsel's regular army of 30,000 in Libeid... ...was crushed by the allied forces of them, Sarbazan, and Lastanien. Pluto said huh, he thought they were winning. Vera said it's because Darios and the order of the dark left. Darios said how they can afford to relax when their nation is in danger, they'll go to war this instant. Vera said she felt the same. Pluto asked what choice they do have. Gaster sighted and asked it isn't cruel to keep overworking this old man, his Majesty, he even lost an arm... Latisse answered it isn't cruel, his subject, he's moved by his Loyalty, the aide-de-camps will relay the details to Gaster later, but first, let's finish their meal. ^[8]

Capital city of the Karsel Kingdom Serkarsel. A guard saw something flying slowly across the sky and asked what is that, a bird. Karstein and Karsenian were floating in the air. The guard said no... ...they look like people. Another guard said magicians, perhaps, they don't know that flying above the castle is forbidden. The guard said he'll report this to the higher-ups. Then suddenly their eyes were filled with a red light and they disappeared. The massive explosion blew away the eastern gate of here, as well as the nearby walls. A huge heat storm of terrifyingly high heat spread in all directions and shook the entire castle. The guard opened the door and shouted his... his majesty, there's been a disaster, please he should look outside the window. Latisse said outside the window... Latisse walked to the window, looked out, and his previously calm expression turned pale. Latisse said the east wall has been destroyed. Someone shouted only one mage on the entire continent... is capable of such powerful magic, he's saying that Gaster betreayed them. Someone shouted that's ridiculous... and Latisse raised his head and looked at the sky. Latisse saw Karstein and Karsenian flying towards where they were. The ministers shouted what the heck is that. The castle was in great shock and ministers shouted aaagh. The guards shouted his... his majesty. Latisse stared blankly, his crown removed. Karsenian said the interior has changed quite a bit, there wasn't a barrier back when she was in the castle. Someone said it's made from the remnants of Grateus, how pitiful, such a flimsy defense will not work on them. Latisse thought seven years ago... ...the previous Queen of Karsel suddenly went missing, she was the only woman he ever loved, how he missed and resented her for disappearing. Latisse shed tears. Latisse said she's back... ...Sernian. The guards rushed and shouted to Karstein that he's the one... responsible for the explosion, they should protect his majesty, everyone, charge. Karstein said explode. The air was compressed and spread out in an instant, causing the castle to crumble into nothingness, and soon an invisible shock wave struck the guards as well. Latisse opened his mouth calmly that it's just as he feared... ...her eternal youth and beauty... always worried him, his fears were not unfounded, Sernian... Latisse shouted ...Sernian left him for another man, and now he has returned with a child who looked just like her. Karsenian said what... Ione came and said pull himself together, father, mother disappeared seven years ago, considering that boy's age, it doesn't add up. Ione said mother... ...who she's, really... Latisse said Ione... Karsenian was furious and had a murderous aura about her and shouted Latisse do still not understand what's happening, then she shall enlighten him, vestiges of her dream. Within a moment, Ione and Latisse were engulfed in light and trapped in a sphere of light. Ione thought vestiges of her dream, she has heard that before it's dragonspeak referring to the remnants of their Entertainment, her mother could be... ...a dragon. Karsenian's clear voice rang out that come, Ignis. ^[9]

Ignis devoured the humans and they screamed agh, h-hot... ...help... echoed everywhere. Karsenian watched it with a cold expression. In the sphere of light Ione said that's ruthless killer... ...truly her mother... ...but the mother she remembered was never like that... Latisse babbled that woman is indeed Sernian, her mother, no matter how she may have changed... ...it doesn't change the fact that she's Sernian. Ione was surprised. Latisse approached and said Sernian... Latisse knocked on the orb of light and screamed that ...it's him, Latisse, Sernian's husband, her daughter, Ione, is here too, she has forgotten them. Karsenian said she remembered Latisse, however, dragons were not so foolish... as to be blinded by dreams and fail to recognize reality, the one who loved her husband and daughter was Sernian... ...not she, Karsenian. The guards were shocked when they heard her name and shouted what, Karsenian, the Demonic Dragon of Sarbazan. Latisse's legs gave out and he fell down and said his Sernian... is a dragon... Karstein asked they're all they need. Karstein said blast. The ceiling blew open with a loud noise. Karsenian, Latisse and Ione, trapped in the sphere of light, Karstein rose into the air and began to fly to the other side of the hole. The guards shouted his majesty, her highness. Through the pale curtain of light, the scenery of Serkarsel is visible. Ione shouted kyaaa. Karstein said to Latisse that human, pay close attention to what is about to happen... ...burn it into his memory... ...and relay it to his kind. Karstein came back as a dragon and said to Latisse that let them know the enormous price he had to pay for harming a hatchling. Karstein took a slow breath and a river of red air swirled and slowly gathered at his mouth. Karstein muttered softly that watch closely, this is the power... ...of the ancient dragon. A blood-red glow traced a line across a distant continent, and clouds evaporated from the heat, creating a blue void in the sky. A ruby-colored pillar of fire blasted out. Somewhere near the capital of the Karsel Kingdom, a farmer plowed the field. The farmer said phew, it's scorching hot today. The farmer wiped the sweat with the rag around his neck. The farmer saw the palace and asked ...what is that pillar of light. The bright red pillar, as if melted ruby, grew larger and larger and the farmer asked huh. The red light grew bigger and bigger and the farmer shouted huuuh. The red pillar exploded in an instant and the farmer shouted aaah. ^[10]

Karsenian had an eerie look on her face. Latisse stood in the sphere of light and Ione bowed her head in fear. Ione said no... ...nooo... The palace of Karsel Kingdom left behind a gigantic abyss hundreds of feet in diameter. Karsenian made a pleased expression and said that's it, they harmed an offspring of their clan, that's nowhere near enough... Karstein said of course not, this is only the beginning. Karstein's breath dug endlessly into the continent's underbelly, containing enormous destructive power. A maid shouted wh-what happened just now. A person shouted help... Reyses who's an eyebrow bleeding, shouted everyone, they should calm down, those who were still alive, run and seek refuge. Reyses thought but... ...what refuge. Someone shouted dame Reyses. Reyses saw something. Karstein said the thermal energy from his dragon breath will form a magma zone, and the heat will turn into pressure, causing the groundwater to boil, the extreme heat will instantaneously evaporate the groundwater, the accumulated magma... ...the evaporation of the groundwater... ...and everything else combined will explode... ...resulting in a deadly eruption. The volcano filled the sky. Reyses said her god... The volcano erupted. The volcano sending another shockwave through the already heavily damaged surface. Kiadrys was hovering in the sky and thought oh, dear, he's late, Karstein is already gone and done it. Kiadrys said the magnitude of this destructive power is staggering, to think an entire nation has been laid to waste. Kiadrys thought no, elder Karstein would not have stopped at just one nation, the other dragons must have prevented the damage from affecting the surrounding areas. ^[5]
