Zeeta and the Wizarding World
The Darkness that protects

Minutes before Siren set foot in the Aurora region, the main nobles and their allies were discussing the reason why Zeeta had not returned to his original state, but it had been two days since the construction of Aurora was completed.

As usual, Ashley as a Grand Duchess and as well as Zeeta's magic teacher, he guessed one possible reason. Since her trust in the entire interlocutor was already formed, also because everyone present was already aware of Zeeta's condition, then Ashley was about to tell the truth.

"It's not that he's weak after the creation of the barrier field," Ashley said, "i think it has something to do with the shocks, which feel evil, which feel bad, as well as the sudden heat we all felt a few days ago.

"Isn't that so, Luna?"

Luna, who had been sitting in her own "throne" from the beginning, woke up from her sideways sleeping position. "Certainly," he said.

Everyone there was surprised. "Why? What reason?" askthem.

"It's not the right time for me to reveal everything, but I'll share what the clues are." Luna said it with a sharp look.

Everyone expects a serious answer from the Spirit.

"Phantasmal" continued Luna. "You've already experienced for yourself the power of a Phantasmal. Of course, what our next opponent will be is not Phantasmal becoming a Hollow, but something more terrifying than that.

"However, worrying about something like that won't make us safer."

"Then what do you mean, Great Spirit?!" claudia snapped suddenly, with a raised head vein at the corner of her forehead. "Are you also going to say this threat must be overcome by Zeeta.... alone?!"

"Chloe... relax!" Lowen shrugged his wife's shoulders.

"To be honest, I have two bad news for you guys." Luna ignored Claudia's anger.

"One; Morgan already knew of the existence of the second Yggdrasil Seed. Two; that Yggdrasil seed was defeated by the Phantasmal I mentioned earlier."

Everyone there couldn't believe what they were hearing. They also gaped and dropped sweat from the forehead.

"Great Spirit .. In fact, this magical world is being threatened by what...?" ask Agatha.

"Even if you ask, I won't answer." Luna's reply made everyone startled and furrowed an eyebrow. "I, as the Spirit, am the one who will guide Zeeta, not you.

"If I were stronger than Zeeta, I still respect him as a man who wants to become stronger and prove that he can fulfill a trust too great for him from everyone.

"I know that everyone gathered here has formed a bond capable of repelling a Hollow without the help of Zeeta and I.

"But that won't change my answer. I'm not gonna tell you guys. However, if Zeeta wants to say it, then I leave it to her.

"That's because .. that answer concerns who he is."

......................

Zeeta who dives into the lake separating the inhabitants and the palace, finds a giant stone that resembles a door, where in the middle there is a symbol of the moon— the same as the one in the left earring—pun with its shining time that adjusts the rotation of the moon.

As Zeeta swims closer to the door....

"Don't!"

Zeeta is stopped by a voice. He looked around, but there was no one but animals and plants. What makes it even more confusing is that, even though the roots wrapped around the palace are very large, but why is there not a small root that arises either from the bottom of the lake or from the bottom of the mainland of the palace?

At the same time, Zeeta, whose mana is connected to the sensor's protective field, also feels the presence of Siren. He finally decided to leave this place until his mother's troubles were over.

"Sister Zeeta, what's going on suddenly diving?" ask Ella when Zeeta just set foot on the ground.

"Stupid, he wants to find information to free our aunt, you know!" snapped Edward.

"Edward! Don't call your sister 'stupid'!" Zeeta yelled at Edward. "I don't like, don't allow, or want to hear any more of those words you're using to refer to each other. Understand?!"

"I. YEAH...." Both answered simultaneously.

"Good answer! Well, let's go back. We have guests." Zeeta invites her cousin back up to her magic-made clouds.

"Guest...? Who?" The Twins looked at each other, not understanding what it meant.

......................

"I was suddenly bored" said Danny, who was still at the Ophenlis residence.

"I hate to admit it, but I'm the same as you, too" retorted Gerda, "what can we do, we were told to wait before Luna told us to come...."

"Although so... Zeeta is great, yes," said Mellynda, "the kingdom of Aurora is like changing one hundred and eighty degrees."

"This is not the time for you to think of yourself or praise Zeeta! I was worried about him!" shangkal Azure. He was also seen wiggling his left leg up and down.

[In the meantime, in the ten kilometers of the kingdom of Aurora.].

"Are you stupid?" ask the figure of the fox's ears and tail.

"Who are you...?!" The siren immediately took some distance.

"Are you stupid?!" the silver-colored fox repeated his words. "You can mold yourself into a human being, where maybe I can't!"

"O-oh, apparently... Luna, yes...." Siren looks relieved. "Then, what do you mean I'm stupid? I just want to bring Lutz to be healed!"

"Aurora just calmed down. Zeeta can't be bothered anymore by a small matter like this." Luna's words actually ignited Siren's emotions.

"Little problem?! Lutz almost died, you know!"

"Then you want me to let him die?!"

"Cih. That phantasmal absorbs every power that has to do with the Spirit...." Luna seemed to bite on her left thumb nail.

"Eh? Why do you know that the enemy is Phantasmal?"

"That's what you think about later! You feel for yourself if either me or Zeeta is reduced—same as you are, right? That means you can't depend on us."

"It's impossible...."

Luna thought even harder to find another way out of this matter.

"Aah!" Luna seemed to get it. "The child could!"

[Some time later.].

Danny, Mellynda, Gerda, and Azure are summoned by Luna. He also briefly explained to them what happened to the Spirit of Yggdrasil and his Vow. And now, the faces of the four children were so uncomfortable. "Do we have to save this selfless man...?" that's how they think. Yet....

"Azure, help him" said Luna.

"Before that, Spirit Siren, tell me," Azure said with an unhappy face. He still remembered the appearance of a selfless boy who suddenly wanted to marry Zeeta without understanding the situation. "For what reason did you and this kid secretly observe Zeeta? I won't accept an answer like 'this is for her prospective fiance'! Answer me as honestly as possible!"

Sirens closed for a moment. "If it can help Lutz recover, then.." he also made up his mind.

"It was because of Lutz's personal desire," Siren replied with straight eyes looking at Azure. "He wants to uncover all the secrets of this magical world. We just happened to sense the presence of another Yggdrasil Seed as we wandered."

"Why does he want to reveal that secret? Don't tell me he wants to be number one?"

Siren blinked his eyes several times, as if in disbelief he could guess. "Y-yeah, that's right...."

"Don't joke...."

"Eh?"

"That child will only be the next Bastanil Rowing! He was a noble who only cared about himself! Even though you chose it as the Yggdrasil Seed and it has been with him many times....

"'Being number one' is the selfish answer of all beings! Why are nobles always like this?!"

"Don't think you're the truest, son," refuted Siren, who was unhappy at all. "If he were such a Man, I would not have chosen him as the Seed of Yggdrasil. We do not just choose a container only from the capacity or strong-weak where a person.

"I wouldn't bother to someone else's kingdom if I could cure it with my own strength. I don't care what your problem is with nobles, but the matter of life is different again, son.

"You want to tell me Lutz's life is useless, hmm?"

"Sirens. Be calm. He's still a kid." Luna mediates.

"Sad." Azure relented because she appreciated Luna. "Eject him. I just need to cure her, right?" Siren immediately agreed.

After putting Klutzie wrapped in bandages all over his body, Azure took out a Magic Book that was thick in its pages. Just as he took it out, Siren was surprised by the mana flowing from the book.

"Where is this...?" inner Siren.

The Azure Magic Book, which had a purplish black envelope and a green crystal ball in the center, opened on a specific page, which suddenly pulled something out of sana—a reddish black cocoon that swallowed Klutzie.

"Hey," Danny whispered to Gerda.

"Curtain, what the hell, anyway?" tanya Gerda, who was also whispering.

"It's the first time we've seen Brother Azure clean, isn't it?"

"Yes, then?"

"Well..I just feel the dark magic is not threatening .. precisely, more to protect...."

"Of course, stupid! We all want to protect Zeeta!"

"No. I don't think just because of that...."

"Ah, just shut up and watch!"

"Alright...."

After taking five minutes, the cocoon incubated Klutzie, then returned to the Azure Magic Book, and simply disappeared.

Siren did not believe what he saw. "Why does an ordinary child seem to be able to magic like this? He also had nothing to do with any natural or magical creature!" his inner.

"More... such severe burns can heal within five minutes...? Do the other kids have the same potential as him?

"If this is the case, it's possible that Suzy can...."

Azure left her waist and relaxed her neck. "Luna, go back and tell Zeeta. We'd better treat them as guests. I don't want Zeeta to get involved with their problems, because surely that bastard Elf will be spying on us again."

"Oh, just calm down. He was ready, really," replied Luna.

"Damn it.... I really don't want Zeeta to meet her, but what can I do...."
