A clear day, a day that is friendly with the inhabitants of the Earth, began to show its change. Dark, windy quite tight, and water moistens slowly. As if, nature gave a sign that something bad would happen to those who are involved in "chaos". To Alicia, to Ashley, Willmurd, Hazell, and her other friends.

The kingdom of Aurora fifteen years ago, was being squeezed by the impromptu threat of almost a hundred magic masters. They were facing off against the Humans led by Queen Aurora, with the young Albert still in uniform and standing next to his Queen with a face that was extremely fearful. The Man— army consisting of hundreds of royal warriors, was ready in each place, surrounding the royal wall with their magic cannons and Magic Books.
Those magical creatures—Erigona— smiled widely as he felt so much huge mana before them. Not only from the Queen and the young man next to her, but from within the royal walls as well.
Scarlet was standing straight across her arms. He let out a long sigh after seeing the form of a magical creature that was threatening his daughter's life. His figure, dubbed Ruby Flared, reflected at that time.
A strong wind struck his long red hair, his red eyes that stared at the enemies in the sky undauntedly, also with his posture. Anyone can sense that Scarlet is not a queen to be underestimated.
In response to the long breath, one of Erigona provoked his emotions. "You... underestimating us?" tanyakanya.
"Albert, if your mother comes home later, tell her to see me soon. I'm disappointed in him" Scarlet said. He ignores the magical creature that nearly killed every royal villager brought by Willmurd and Ashley. The queen was reluctant to even look into the eyes of her enemy.
"To-disappointed...?! W-what are you going to. fire..," Albert who dared not say the end said, lowering his voice.
"Huh?! You're a MAN!" Scarlet hit Albert's back hard.
"Whoa-wh!" erang Albert's.
"Did you hear?!" Scarlet hit him once more.
"L-yes! I heard! I'll tell mom!"
"Good." Scarlet nodded. "Well, so now look at me and example me, Albert. Don't disappoint me or Alicia later when she's Queen, if in the future you're having problems like this." Scarlet's red hair slowly defied the direction of gravity, then a dark red aura coated her body. Then, he flew closer to the Erigona-Erigona.
"Although they are beings that can absorb magic, there's only one thing you need to do. Don't give them a chance to absorb it" Scarlet said as she flew closer to Erigona. He said it casually, his flight was not rushed, which in fact sparked the enemy's growing annoyance.
As Scarlet got closer to Erigona, they suddenly looked panicked and frightened— was very different from just a moment ago, and when they were dealing with Alicia and her comrades.
Scarlet stopped after being right in front of them. "You guys.. do you know because of you, I have to do extra things for the safety of my people...?
"No.... I'm mistaken. It's not your fault, but that fucking Morgan...."
Suddenly, the bodies of his enemies were drawn to the ground, yet they could still fight back.
"Who are you really?! A-a-what the fuck is that crazy?!" one of Erigona.
"I? Hmph." Scarlet smiled, then she used her colored magic grains to make small balls that were the same color as her magic, according to the number of Erigona there.
"I AM THE NINETEENTH QUEEN OF AURORA, SCARLET!!" Then Scarlet released the small balls.
The small balls alight at the same point—i their stomach—which contained a magic core. The ball just perched up—waiting for "command" continued his master.
Through the sight of Erigona's eyes still attracted by the greater gravity present around them alone, they saw Scarlet's eyes glow red with a wide grin. It made them more afraid.
"Before you disappeared, Morgan, I knew you could see me out of their eyes. Too bad, yeah, it's not quite what you want!
"Have you forgotten that if I'm serious, I don't hesitate with anyone my opponent—even if it's my own daughter?
"It seems you also forgot, without a moon, my magic can still match you Elves! Take my words now.
"Never...! Never again have you set foot in Aurora, Morgan. If not ... you will accept the consequences!"
'CLICK!'
Scarlet flicked her fingers. The stomachs of the Erigona as if faded— turned to dust. Without being able to dwell, Erigona who had previously come confidently, vanished just like that by a Human.
Similarly, the magic warrior and Albert were behind them. They had carved clearly in his heart, although Scarlet was a very fierce and often thunderous person when speaking, she was the one who placed the most importance on the safety of her people.
Meanwhile, in a forest... The white-haired, red-eyed, six-winged fairy, as well as dropping the black mana grains, gritted her teeth continuously.
"Humans... Humans are so outrageous! What did 'i forget if he could match the power of the Elves...'?!
"He just showed it!
"Don't joke, goddamn it!!!
"So all this time..he hid that much magic from my eyes?!
"Damn it, shit, siaal!!"
Morgan, the male elf who was the mastermind behind Erigona's perfectly shaped events, was wallowing in feelings of resentment, anger, and disbelief for what happened to her.
"That's the result if you pick the wrong opponent" someone's voice startled Morgan.
"You?!" Morgan immediately turned his head towards the voice. She's shocked.
"Srst...." The figure gave a silent sign with an index finger on his lips. "The game's not over yet, Morgan."
"God...." Morgan smiled wickedly.
......................
In the original Ashley and Erigona fight, Ashley senses an explosion of Scarlet's mana. Ashley has given a lot of wounds that do not return closed in some parts in Erigona. Among them, two horns on his head have been broken and a pointy trunk on his back that has also been broken. His body was also filled with bruises and abrasions.
"Wuah.... Scarlet's already mad!" ashley's mind, "must get it done!"
While Ashley was panicking, Erigona was emotional. "Why?! Why is my wound not regenerating?! Why can't I absorb your power?! Why are you stronger than before?!"
Not answering Erigona's question, Ashley then magnified her orange-red aura. After that, he formed the index finger and thumb of his right hand like a gun, then he popped a magic circle the size of his finger in front of his index finger.
"This is your end, Erigona."
Ashley shot like a bullet into Erigona's stomach. Slowly, Erigona was fractured.... "Damn, shit, shit! This shouldn't have happened!" erang Erigona before was completely smashed into pieces.
"Fuhuuh...." Ashley takes away her aura. "I should get a lot of scolding from Scarlet...? Oh, uh, ah...." Ashley says it while regrouping to Willmurd to be with her students.
......................
"WHAT THE HELL IS THISII?!" exclaim Ashley. He saw the land split into a very deep ravine— caused by Hazell.
Alicia, Arthur, Porte, Hazell, and the others had already gathered. The other disciples, Arthur, Hellen, and Willmurd, were already fine after being given a further cure by Alicia.
"WHOEVER DID IT, COME HERE!" shout Ashley.
"That's me, the Grand Duchess...." Hazell came forward with her head bowed.
"Levant, huh?!"
"L-yes...."
"Don't you know your magic is dangerous?! The forest beneath you also has a life of know! Why do you have to bother to use this much magic, huh?!" Ashley blabbed Hazell.
"So-about that.... I'm sorry." Hazell regrets her actions.
"Haw...." Ashley sighed. "Alicia, are you okay? Nothing bad after fighting Erigona?"
"No-no, Teacher! I also want to apologize. Because of my naivety.. everything got messed up...."
"On that, I won't say anything. But Scarlet won't be quiet. Prepare yourself."
"Damn?!" Alicia shuddered in horror.
"All right, everybody dissolve yourself. Alicia, I'll see you again. I'm also definitely gonna get Scarlet."
"Ahaha.... Let's get excited, Master." Alicia answered him while dropping a sweat from her temple.
"Garren, you stay here." Ashley is serious.
"I know" Garren replied. He did not look at Ashley, nor did he pout.
Then Arthur, Hellen, and the other disciples, along with Willmurd, return to the kingdom with Willmurd's teleportation magic. Arthur held Willmurd's shoulder, then Arthur's shoulder was held by Porte, then continued by holding each other's shoulders or hands on the other students.
"Garren, this won't happen if you don't recklessly attack Erigona." Ashley started her talk. "Tell me, why did you ignore my warning?"
"Sadly.I didn't ignore it! I just thought that if a lot of water couldn't be absorbed, that's all!" Garren still doesn't want to look at Ashley.
"Don't you learn, whatever magic forms, still a magic that contains mana?"
"It."
"Then why?"
"Alright, alright! I admit it was my fault. I'm negligent for attacking him without thinking!"
"so. You've fought well, son Garren. Go back to your residence, your parents must be worried."
"I know."
Unwittingly they are, from a distance, Morgan looks at Garren's behavior. He smiled widely.
......................
"And. end. That's how I fell in love with Arthur." Hellen, thirty-two years old, single, and a head of Cloxzar's nobility, had been telling him almost three whole hours.
"So... Erigona is actually easy to overcome even in its perfect form?" ask Zeeta.
"Well, for beginners, it's very difficult. The speed of his body when moving, the speed of his regeneration, as well as the strength of the magic released, of course overwhelmed us.
"However, what makes the Scarlet Queen, your grandmother so angry, is that Madame Ashley failed to protect us and left us hurt when Madame Ashley, if serious, was hurt, he could even destroy the five large islands that Erigona filled at once!"
"eeh?! Teacher Ashley is that strong?!" Zeeta was surprised, as was Selen's face.
"But, Madame Ashley is still no match for Queen Scarlet. Anyway, he's really... VERY...even beyond his strong sense!"
"Well, I don't know why I got scared.... But where is my grandmother now? Is he also locked up in the palace?"
"No." Hellen's carefree face instantly glum. "The Queen of Scarlet .. suddenly disappeared three years after Erigona's incident."
"Eh...? Missing...?"
"Yes. I know what happened," Selen said. "I was five years old, Brother Hellen had just returned home after attending Queen Alicia's wedding. I still clearly remember, suddenly, above the palace appeared a huge dark circle.
"The "black circle absorbs whatever is beneath it. Surprisingly, people were not lifted up but were just like glass, trees, and palace items!"
"Yes. That dark circle we call the Black Portal. The only person she lost was Queen Scarlet" Hellen said.
"Oh, yeah...." Zeeta looks moody. Though he had been hoping to meet his biological family that sounded so stunning.
"Alright, then let's get some sleep. You've never slept with two beautiful women, have you?"
"Eheheh.. You're right! I'm excited now!" Hellen manages to distract Zeeta.
Zeeta quickly sleeps on her bed and pulls the blanket, followed by Selen sleeping on the left, and Hellen on Zeeta's right.
Hellen raised both of his hands, then clapped twice. The chandelier died by itself.
"Good sleep, Hellen, Selen." Zeeta says it with a smile.
"Yes, good night, Your Majesty." Hellen and Selen took turns.
