Zeeta and the Wizarding World
The Hidden Power of Azure
The situation inside Aurora's palace had become increasingly heated since Scarlet told the reason why she was staring at King Eizen Gustav seriously. Zacht, who happened to have returned to the throne room, felt firsthand how Alicia's mana had increased drastically upon hearing what her mother's mouth had thrown.
“Calm down, Alicia,” Scarlet said, stroking Alicia's shoulder. “I understand what you are feeling, but now is not the time to discuss that,”.
“AKU KNOW!” snapped Alicia, which shocked Scarlet. “Of course about that I know, Mom!” he clenched his hands tightly, until he raised veins on his hands and head. “The man as kind-hearted, gentle, and as generous as father, has been killed by the man who just came before my eyes ... just found out now—tens of years after dad died....
“I tried, Bu.”
Scarlet and Eizen spoke a thousand languages. Each of them has a reason why they did what he did.
Then, moments later, in the middle of the situation, they realized that the morning sun, which was blocked by curtains, had dimmed slowly until it was completely dark. Zacht immediately revealed it while asking, “What else is going on now?”
'SREEKK'S'
When it was revealed, be it Eizen, Scarlet, Alicia, or Zacht, they were shocked to see the dark sky with thunderbolts of red with white lightning. From the darkness of the sky, there is still something happening— that cannot be captured by the naked eye.
“What is it..?” asked Scarlet squinted her eyes. It adds magic layered uses such as zoom and slow motion to both eyes. “A black haired girl and..?”
“Black-haired girl?!” Eizen was shocked to hear that. “Is he fighting a woman with a monster hand?!”
Scarlet took off her eye magic. “Yes, you know?”
“Di-dia..” Eizen told me what happened before they came here.

"So that's it." Scarlet sat down and closed her eyes. "But, why isn't Zeeta dealing with it? Isn't that girl just a friend who shouldn't interfere in this matter?"
Aria then came from the healing dimension. "Of course he had something to do with it" he said as soon as he walked into the room.
"What do you mean?"
"The black-haired girl was a disciple of Marianna."
"Murids.., huh...."
"She has also been raised as my daughter," Alicia chimpanzee, "she's a survivor from the Lapis village who has been destroyed by a former major noble."
"What?!" scarlet's voice was so blaring that it shook the table. "DESTROYED BY THE MAIN NOBLE?!" he clenched his hands tightly.
......................
This happened just a moment ago, when Azure had just knocked Marianna off with a sledgehammer-shaped magic to cause a crack in Marianna's bones.
Azure approached Marianna whose body position was irregular due to her magic. He narrowed his eyes when he saw how easily the figure he called the teacher regenerated to his bones.
"Is it true that only we can really fight people like him, Zee...?" Azure was doubtful of their abilities, herself and the Crescent Void, after seeing it.
Azure was on standby when Marianna had gained her footing again. He stayed in place for a while, making Azure wary of what he was about to do.
Then, Marianna began to launch her attack once again. With his high speed, it made him look like teleporting. Azure, who could not keep up with his speed with his eyes, immediately crossed his arms and raised a shield.
Marianna appeared on it, about to attack with her right hand. Reacting as fast as he could, Azure leapt back, but he saw some pointy shadows on the ground.
Azure was forced to cross open his arms to split his two shields. He also strengthened his leg strength with additional magic.
A pointed tree trunk was ready to stab at the left, while there was Marianna who was about to attack on the right.
But, when Azure was ready to impact around her arm, Marianna smirked. He teleported in front of Azure which was not protected at all and then he moved his right fist like it was going to claw. That hand he immediately threw on the ground, making magic different from before.
When the upward claw makes the incision blades sharp, on the contrary, this downward claw makes the target fall on the more gravity directed at one.
"Damn it!" azure exclaimed as she was forced to fall to the ground. "My body can't .. be moved!"
Marianna did not stop. While gravity was still burdensome to Azure, his pointy tree trunk he divided into five pieces. He immediately stuck it in both his fists, stomach, and thighs.
The sick moans were of course issued by Azure, but welcoming her was like a celebration, Marianna laughed. "Muhaha...."
Azure saw Marianna's tanned red eyes shining. Her body that covered a bit of sunlight since the sky had turned dark from it, adding to the impression of how much she was no longer Marianna. He is just a person who likes bloodshed and likes to spread terror. Azure is aware of that.
"There is no other choice...." Azure brought up her Magic Book. "Zey! If you see this, let me do it!
"I already understand what you want to do to her, so let me also take out the full extent that I can!
"I won't hear the word 'no' from you!"
The Magic Book finally opened, towards a specific page.
"This I learned and I made after seeing you how clean either when your consciousness is there or not, Marianna. I don't know what happens if I use this magic for too long, but....
"I've killed a few people in Aurora because I thought they'd get in your way and Zeeta....
"I thought I couldn't and still was afraid to kill. Quite a time I enjoyed the satisfaction of my revenge.
"You killed with this hand without knowing anything....
"If I catch up with you, punish me."
A purplish-black aura burst out from the Azure, condensing Marianna and plucking the pieces of wood from her body forcefully. The wounds of the holes in his body quickly closed, then veins appeared in many parts of his body. Arms, around eyes, and legs. His body smoky, his irises invisible.
Along with that, the darkening sky expanded, as the Azure and Marianna fight continued.
Azure forced Marianna to soar into the sky with a punch that landed on her chin and layered a blackish purple mana. He then launched a series of attacks that landed on the eyes, chin, stomach, and cheeks with crazy speed, causing the impact of the wind behind him.
That streak of punch summoned thunder to snatch. With a flash of lightning, the current of the battle changed just like that with the dominating Azure.
Emotionally, Marianna would not allow herself to be constantly being whipped around by the girl in front of her. He changed his body shape into smoke, circled around Azure, then closed his breathing by realizing a part of his body around the pernapssnya. Until now, Azure is hugged and smothered by a smoke in the sky.
Not losing his mind, Azure countered. Her free hand—with right index finger—ia twirling. A whirlwind came from the sky, forcing Marianna to crash— whose success was nil, unfortunately.
Starting to run out of breath, Azure immediately replaced the whirlwind with a blizzard wind. Quickly, the smoke froze and he managed to break down the closed part of his breathing. He also managed to pull himself out of the smoke and give distance.
"Receive this!"
Azure focused mana on his right leg. Sensing the danger, Marianna, trapped in the frozen ground, tries to escape by cracking herself.
"It's too late!"
Azure kicked Marianna with her foot. Although it is smoke-shaped, it does not mean it cannot be injured. After receiving her kick in a landslide, Marianna returned to her original form where her face was shattered with her shoes clearly emblazoned on.
Marianna was once again bounced away by the Azure attack and the direction she was bouncing towards was Aurora. Despite knowing it, Azure still fights not only to hold back so that Zeeta can get more time to prepare, but he also does it all-out.
