The Ice Crystal Chandelier rattled under Aelia's violently trembling Scepter, as Luna gazed at the floating Ice Blue Halo outside the swaddling. She pressed her chubby little hand against the silver chain-embedded Transmitting Stone.
This Alchemical Artifact, hidden in her drool pouch Dark Bag, was seeping fine snow-like Magic Particles.
"Mother." The call in Baby Voice made Aelia turn abruptly, the Ice Spike at the tip of her Scepter halting sharply before the Cradle, shattering into starry blue sand.
Luna tilted her head back, her face shimmering with crystals, her Amber Eyes reflecting the pulsating Sapphire of Aelia's Neck—this was the Oath Stone of the Lady of the Demon Fortress's Inheritance, now rippling with murky waves due to the corrosion of lies.
As Luna conjured the illusion of Leonard's Concubine Xu Ying's residence, the Oath Stone suddenly erupted with a blinding Strong Light.
Aelia staggered to steady herself against the Carved Pillar, watching as Leonard placed the Thorned Emblem Ring on the Brown-Haired Woman's hand in the illusion. The Guardian's Oath Seal she had planted in her husband's Heart during their wedding showed no reaction whatsoever.
"Twenty-three years..." Aelia's Ailya's White Nails carved five Frost Marks into the oak pillar, ice crystals spreading along her silver hair to cover the entire stone wall.
Luna felt a Magic Pattern Zhen Chan emanating from the bottom of the Cradle; it was the Judgment Chamber beneath the master bedroom awakening after a century of slumber.
At that moment, a brittle sound of a Crystal Cup shattering echoed from the East Tower.
Leonard brushed aside an obstructing attendant, his Dark Cloak sweeping away the Lineage Head busts displayed in the corridor.
As he kicked open the master bedroom Liujin Gate, he collided with Aelia embedding the Oath Stone into the Judgment Chamber's Bronze Lock eye.
"You dare to use our ancestor's forbidden ground without permission!" His Fingertip shot out Heiyan, but upon touching Aelia's Silver Armor, it rebounded with Ailina's Burn.
Luna caught a whiff of Blood Stench in the air; it was the Oath Stone punishing liars—Leonard's Hand Back Emerging with Thorn-Shaped burn marks.
Aelia threw down the blood-stained Family Crest at his feet: "When forging your amulet with Royal Secret Silver, you promised to share glory and Disaster with me." She lightly tapped her Scepter, and simultaneously, the Images of Matriarchs on the secret room walls opened their eyes, binding Leonard’s Twin Legs with Ice Blue Spell chains.
A sudden Magical Fluctuation from the West Study interrupted this confrontation.
Through the Transmitting Stone, Luna heard her brother’s Wheelchair crushing Peacock Stone Tiles; his Void Drawing Array, hidden for three years, finally tore through its disguise—beneath those Pretend rotting skin layers that had been backfired upon him, Dark Golden Magic Patterns crawled along the Wheel Spokes covering the entire ceiling.
"Mother, don't touch him!" The voice of the elder brother surged through the air, accompanied by a shockwave of Ancient Elvish Language that shattered the window. The Poison Scale Powder hidden in Leonard's sleeve crystallized into Ice Shards amidst the Sound Wave.
Aelia then noticed the Puppet Thread entwined around her husband’s fingertip; those transparent Dark Purple Threads were inexplicably connected to the nape of the Second Son's neck.
Luna watched as the Second Brother crashed into the room, his neck oozing with a Curse that seeped out as Purple Black tainted blood.
The young man, who was supposed to be poisoned by his dear friend in this Original, was now tearing apart the Curse Barrier set by Father with his bare hands. As his Palm stained with blood touched the elder brother's Magic Pattern, it suddenly transformed into the long-lost Breaking the Curse Totem.
"So three years ago, when the magical beasts attacked..." The Second Brother's Emerald Eyes glowed red with rage as his In Hand severed Puppet Thread suddenly elongated, wrapping around Leonard's throat like a Spider Web.
Luna noticed the dark green Blue Blood Fern Juice staining his hem—clearly the blood of the Forbidden Zone Guardian Vine.
Suddenly, a Magic Tome fell from the attic, raising choking clouds of dust, and Brother San’s frantic figure flickered in and out of sight within the smoke.
He clutched an Ancient Demon Script Notebook stolen from Father’s secret chamber, and his Palm bore a newly awakened Curse Mark that resonated with the Grimoire.
As a Parchment containing information about Leonard's Concubine fluttered down, the boy's trembling Fingertip ignited with Qing Yan.
"Father purchased a manor in the Northern Territory..." Brother San's voice was abruptly cut off by a shadow that burst forth from the Grimoire. The shadow screamed as it touched Aelia's Scepter, which shone brightly.
Luna gazed at the winding Bloodline on the floor—this was clearly a Memory Theft Technique commonly used by Black Sorcerers.
Leonard suddenly crushed the amulet at his chest, and a Gargoyle emerged from the black mist, its claws lunging straight for Aelia’s face.
In a moment of crisis, Luna bit her finger and flicked a Blood Pearl towards the Oath Stone. The Great Mage’s Original Magic Power contained within Baby Blood caused all Ancestor Statues in the Judgment Chamber to turn collectively.
As the Judgment Sword of the first Bronze Statue cleaved through the black mist, a roar echoed from the Castle Outer Wall like that of a dragon striking a bell.
Luna looked at the approaching torchlight reflected on the Crystal Window, her lips curling into a cold smile that was uncharacteristic for an infant—Lucius, who should have been patrolling the borders at this time, was now clearly heard approaching with Hoofbeats.
Amidst the Ice Shards that erupted from the clash between Scepter and Gargoyle claws, Aelia emerged clad in Silver Armor, entwined in Dark Patterns of thorny roses.
Leonard gazed at the gradually emerging patterns from the battle, suddenly letting out a roar like a cornered beast, "You knew all along..."
The flash of light from outside drowned out his words, as torrential rain poured in, carrying with it an unfamiliar magical aura.
Luna watched the Golden Patterns dancing across the surface of the Oath Stone, realizing that someone bearing the Royal Token was forcefully breaking through the barrier.
From below the Cradle came the hum of the Hexagram Magic Circle, as Leonard's sword emitted a sudden sound. The magic patterns between his brother's Wheel Spokes had already spread across the entire floor.
The rain, mixed with the burnt scent of Dragon's Breath Grass, crashed against the Stained Glass. As Lucius charged into the judgment chamber, crushing ice crystals underfoot, the Bronze Judgment Sword hung just inches from Leonard and Mei Xin.
This Border Guardian, known for his iron will, was enveloped in steam rising from the rainwater. The Xuanbing Bracers, embedded with the royal Emblem, smashed through the Gargoyle Remains but froze abruptly upon reaching the Magic Vortex where his parents confronted each other.
"Mother!" He swung Jian Ge to block Zhen Chan's judgment sword, and his Dark Red Cloak was instantly torn to shreds by Ice and Fire Dual System Magic. "Father has a Blood Pact stone buried in his heart!" Before he could finish speaking, Leonard's Obsidian Button suddenly exploded, revealing a writhing Blood Curse beneath his skin—this was the source that controlled the Puppet Thread.
Aelia's Scepter, with an ice spike forming at its tip, barely halted at her husband's Adams Apple. Suddenly, an image of a First Matriarch on the wall sighed, "Child, look at the third pearl on your Magic Robe." The floating Bronze Sword turned in response, its hilt embedded with Moonstone reflecting Lucius’s Battle Armor and the Bauhinia Pollen seeping from its Gap—this was what Noble Young Ladies from the Northern Territory cherished most: Xunxiang.
Luna's baby blue pupils constricted slightly as she saw her brother's Wheelchair Armrest suddenly swell with Dark Gold Magic Patterns, shredding the Puppet Thread that attempted to ambush him into powder.
The Breaking the Curse Totem on Second Brother's hem was devouring the Poison Scale Powder left on the floor, while Brother San’s Ancient Demon Script Notebook flipped pages on its own. The yellowed pages revealed a Blood Pact Copy signed between Leonard and Leonard's Concubine.
"Enough!" Leonard shattered the Ice Chain entwined around his Twin Legs. The Heiyan that shot from his fingers turned into a strange emerald green midway.
Lucius, who was about to step forward, suddenly knelt on one knee as the Royal Insignia embedded in his Chest Armor began to corrode his skin—clearly a demonic Antidote laced with Dragon Blood.
Qin Si suddenly darted out from behind the Relief Obsidian Pillar, her Emerald Medicine Box crashing into the poisonous flames that were about to reach Lucius.
This usually docile Maid tore open her sleeves embroidered with Protective Spells, revealing her forearm marred by an old scar. "Madam, look! Three years ago when Dong Lian was attacked, my Hemostatic Ointment was mixed with Puppet Larva!"
Aelia's Silver Armor emitted a sound like grinding Dragon Scales as her Scepter traced icy lines on the Ground that instantly froze the Blood Pact stone fragments at Leonard's feet.
As she turned to the Eldest Son, whose decaying skin was marked by the Dark Gold Magic Pattern, her voice carried the chill of winds sweeping across the Extreme North Icefield. "So, you were pretending? The Magic Backlash was actually a reverse tracking using the Ancient Elf Forbidden Technique on the Caster?"
The fingers of her elder brother, Pale, tapped against the Wheelchair Armrest, and suddenly, a Light Barrier descended from the sprawling Magic Pattern on the ceiling.
In the Projection of three years ago during the celebration banquet, Leonard's Pupil shrank in horror—he recalled the Celebratory Wine he had personally handed to the Second Son on Leonard's Last Night, now shimmering with the Puppet Master's distinctive Rainbow Light.
"So Father already knew that the treasure map given to me by my dear friend was cursed?" The Second Brother ripped open his collar, revealing the Purple-Black Mark of his Heart Emerging slowly being covered by the Breaking the Curse Totem.
His Emerald Eyes reflected Father’s rigid face as a sharp arrow formed at his Fingertip, merging Ice and Fire. "Then why did you send me to explore that ruin last month?"
At that moment, as Jing Lei cleaved through the Dome, Brother San's arms suddenly released dozens of Parchments into the air.
The documents detailing Black Magic assembled into a map above them, and a location marked with a red cross was unmistakably the estate purchased by Leonard for Leonard's Concubine.
The boy's trembling Fingertip ignited with Azure White Flame. "Father's Study... Ankeli... hides a Curse Doll made with our brother Ailya's Birthday Rune..."
Lucius's Leonard's Sword suddenly let out a mournful wail, its Sword Body reflecting the Cracking patterns inside Aelia's Neck Oath Stone.
He wiped away the Poisoned Blood seeping from his mouth and slammed the Royal Insignia onto the Judgment Scale. "Three Months Ago, Your Majesty reminded me to pay attention to Northern Lord’s unusual movements; it turns out..." The Amethyst embedded in his medal suddenly reflected Outsider Woman Leonard’s Thorned Emblem Ring—that was indeed the Emblem of the Northern Duke Family.
A surge of black mist erupted around Leonard, shattering seven Colored Glazed Windows but transforming into Frost Snow upon touching Aelia’s Silver Armor.
He stumbled back, knocking over a Bronze Candlestick as his Crimson Cloak fluttered in the draft. "The Mercy of a Woman! Without Mithril Subordinate Mine in Northern Territory, Glorious Demon Fortress would have long..."
"So using one's own flesh and blood as Sacrifice is also glory?" Aelia swung her staff to shatter the smoke bomb he had thrown. From within the Ice Crystal Storm emerged three Curse Dolls entwined in dark energy.
The tail end of her Scepter suddenly pierced her own Heart, extracting Heart's Blood that caused all images of the matriarch to wail in unison—those Ice Blue Spells instantly solidified into Demon Binding Shackles, pinning Leonard beneath the Jian Feng of the First Generation Fortress Lord Statue.
Luna's Fingertip brushed against the Transmitting Stone without Awareness as she noticed that beneath her elder brother’s Wheelchair, the Magic Pattern had quietly enveloped all remnants of Cursed Dolls.
As the Breaking the Curse Totem of Second Brother and Brother San's Qing Yan simultaneously scorched Leonard's Puppet Thread, a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of the infant's mouth—these brothers, who should have been at odds, were now creating a wondrous Resonance through their magic.
Amidst the sound of torrential rain, the cry of a Dragon Eagle Beast suddenly mixed in, and the Emerald Medicine Box held by Qin Si erupted with Green Light.
Aelia gazed at the Family Heritage Ring emerging from the box, her frost-covered face finally cracking as she murmured, "So this is what Mother meant by 'the last resort'..." Her bloodied fingertip brushed over the Ring Face embedded with Ice Spirit Stone, and the entire castle began to tremble violently.
Seizing the opportunity, Leonard transformed into black mist and slipped into the downpour, but as he crossed the barrier, a suddenly materialized shard of Oath Stone cut his Right Eye.
Luna looked out at the falling crimson droplets, her Pupil reflecting the eerie Aurora lighting up the Northern Horizon—clearly a sign of an opening Space Rift.
As the last wisp of black mist dissipated in Lei Yun, Aelia gently picked up the trampled Family Crest.
Ice crystals crawled along the Thorned Rose pattern on her Silver Armor, covering the stone wall entirely, but when they touched Luna's Cradle, they transformed into gentle snowflakes.
The matriarch lowered her gaze to the infant's Palm, where unhealed bite marks remained. Suddenly, she pressed the Inheritance Ring against her daughter's forehead—there, a faint Star Moon Mark unique to reincarnated Great Mages began to emerge.
"Madam..." Qin Si hesitated as he looked towards the gathering Private Army outside but noticed that remnants of magic from the three brothers were intertwining in the air to form a Protective Barrier.
Lucius wiped away the Poisoned Blood from Leonard's Sword and embedded the Royal Insignia into the control core of the Judgment Chamber. Instantly, patterns of Ancient Magic Circle glowed with Purple Gold Radiance.
Luna extended her tiny hand amidst swirling ice crystals and grasped a drifting fragment of Puppet Thread.
As that wisp of black mist transformed into a Micro Magic Circle in her Palm, a shadow of Dark Gold Liuguang flickered in her blue eyes—this was an even older Source Array than the Judgment Chamber, enough to reveal a panicked figure fleeing in the Northern Territory.
The Ice Spirit Stone merged with Luna's Shan Na at her forehead, causing the Celestial Chart of the Judgment Chamber Dome to abruptly invert.
Stars embedded with Lapis Lazuli slid along an ancient Track, casting a bizarre Rune Array upon Aelia's Silver Armor.
Curled up in her swaddling cloth, Luna pressed her Tongue against her new Milk Tooth and etched the patterns of Source Array into the interior of Transmitting Stone—her thin magical power was subtly resonating with Castle Leyline.
Lucius halted his motion of wiping the medal as tendrils of black mist seeped from the Magic Circle Core glowing with Purple Gold Radiance.
The Dragon Crystal Stone embedded in his sword hilt began to flicker, signaling an alarm for the attack on the border Fortress. "The Space Rift in the Northern Territory..." He crushed the Ice Shard forming between his fingers and caught a glimpse of the red cross mark on Brother San's In Hand Parchment map, which was seeping Dark Red Liquid.
"Mother, be careful!" The eldest brother suddenly turned his Wheelchair, and a Light Barrier woven with Dark Gold Magic Pattern enveloped Aelia's Silver Armor.
Outside the Protective Barrier, the sound of shattering ice crystals echoed as an invisible shadow gnawed at the royal seal set by Lucius.
The Breaking the Curse Totem on Second Brother's robe suddenly swelled, and Emerald Color Curse vines ensnared the black mist attempting to penetrate the barrier.
Luna's pupils dilated slightly as she saw fragments of Puppet Thread drifting and reassembling.
A baby's fingers, stained with Milk Stain, gently tapped the Cradle's railing, quietly infusing two strands of source magic into her brother's Wheel Spokes.
When the Dark Gold Magic Pattern collided with Qing Yan at the corner of the Southwest wall, a Silver White Halo erupted, illuminating the writhing Curse Insect within the Wall Tile Gap—those rice-sized creatures were ravenously devouring the castle's Defensive Magic Pattern.
Aelia's Scepter struck the ground, and frost unleashed by the Inheritance Ring instantly froze the entire southern wall.
Beneath the shattered Ice Layer lay dozens of Curse Insect Corpses arranged into a Thorn Emblem, causing Lucius to gasp in shock. "How could the Devouring Insect from the Northern Duke..."
"It's a backlash from the Blood Pact." Brother San suddenly unfurled a yellowed Shou Zha, and his Fingertip Qing Yan illuminated a segment of Ancient Demon Script. "Father Leonard's Concubine's Bloodline is mixed with a curse from the demon-eating clan." A Curse Doll slipped from his sleeve and crashed onto the Ice Surface, causing a silver needle embedded in its Cursed Doll Heart to ooze blue-black Pus.
Qin Si suddenly knelt beside the Cradle as an emerald vial rolled from Yao Xia and shattered against the barrier's edge.
As Purple Smoke rose, Luna saw a translucent Puppet Worm emerging from a scar on a Maid's forearm.
These creatures, which should have hatched three years ago during Dong Lian, were now frantically lunging toward her Palm's Source Array.
"Miss, be careful!" Qin Si tore off a Pearl Necklace and hurled it at the Puppet Worm but froze in place when the third pearl shattered.
Aelia's Scepter swept through just in time, freezing the Memory Fragment that spilled from the pearls—it was Leonard handing over a box embedded with Dragon Scales to the steward on Leonard's Last Night.
Luna's Transmitting Stone suddenly grew hot as Zhen Chan from Castle Leyline allowed her to catch sounds of chains rattling from below.
As the Second Brother's Breaking the Curse Totem and the Eldest Brother's Magic Pattern swept through the West Corridor simultaneously, a sudden hum emanated from a Crystal Coffin in a long-sealed Storage Room.
The infant's pupils constricted sharply as she finally understood why the Devouring Demon Larva, which was supposed to appear three years later in the Original, was stirring prematurely.
In Shan Na, where the torrential rain had ceased, the Lucius Medal reflected Bauhinia Pollen that suddenly coalesced into arrow-like shapes.
Aelia gazed at the Space Rift in the Northern Horizon gradually closing, pressing the blood-stained Family Crest against Luna's Heart. "From tonight onward, you will be the true Oath Stone..."
Before she could finish her sentence, the Inheritance Ring erupted with a blinding Blue Light.
The main house's Image collectively emitted a sharp warning sound, and a dull thud echoed from deep within the Castle Cellar as a Heavy Object fell to the ground.
Luna's Source Array automatically unfolded, and within the Micro Magic Circle, Xu Ying emerged. A woman wearing a Thorned Emblem Ring was pouring Dragon Blood onto the Devouring Demon Worm Nest.
As Twilight draped the Magic Castle in a Purple Gray Veil, the residual Poisoned Blood from the Lucius Medal crystallized into Bing Hua on the windowsill.
Aelia carried Luna through the corridor, and as her Scepter swept over a Stone Brick Gap, nearly invisible Black Silk quietly seeped into the Geomancy.
When the last sliver of daylight vanished from the West Tower and Castle Spire, a faint cracking sound of crystal echoed from a frost-covered secret chamber, reminiscent of claws scraping across glass in a Tremor.
