As the baby's loud cry pierced through the Magic Castle Dome beneath the Ice Crystal Chandelier, Qin Si was tying a swaddling knot for Luna, adorned with a Starry Pattern.
Suddenly, the Dark Red Threads moved on their own, wrapping around the Nightingale Petals drifting in from the window. In the chubby palm of the infant, they formed a half strand of light gold hair.
"Young Miss, be careful not to catch a chill." Qin Si reached out to close the window, but Luna grasped the Star-Moon Button on her sleeve.
The baby Luna suddenly felt a surge of heat, reflecting off the Ice Spike in the corner into a mirror-like surface—within it was Leonard kissing a Blonde Woman in a rose garden. The Eternal Winter Stone embedded in her Earlobe glimmered with an eerie blue glow unique to the Mistress.
Qin Si gasped, startling the Knight outside. The sound of armor clanking drew closer as Shan Na approached. Luna's unintentional knock over of the Magic Potion Bottle sent it rolling across the Ice Surface to the bed's edge.
In a small hole corroded by the light lavender liquid lay the Jade Comb that had gone missing three days ago—its strands entwined with golden hair matching that of the figure in the mirror.
"The lady mentioned this morning that she lost her beloved Combing Mirror..." Qin Si trembled as she pulled out an Astrology Handkerchief to wrap up the evidence, unaware that the baby’s saliva had drawn a Tracking Talisman on the Ice Surface, seeping into the fabric.
When Aelia's Wedding Ring pricked her fingertip, Luna realized that those blood-stained pieces of evidence would reveal the truth with a cursed effect.
The Ice Bricks of the Crystal Corridor shattered into Xing Mang shapes beneath Aelia's skirt.
This Lady of the Fortress, renowned for her Frost Magic, accepted the wooden box presented by Qin Si. The Wedding Ring suddenly shrank upon touching her golden hair, leaving blood-colored patterns on her ring finger.
"It must be jealousy over Leonard being named Northern Guardian." Aelia's fingertip formed an Ice Blade that shattered the mirror; yet, those Ice Shards spontaneously reformed into Leonard's Last Night—when he had claimed to hunt the Snow Wolf King during Ailya's Birthday Rune last year but had actually branded a Rose Kiss Mark on the Mistress's neck.
The ice reflected Aelia's Guardian Gecko Sand Magic Circle at her collarbone, a secret technique of the Aelia Family.
Luna emitted a Yiya Sound from her Cradle, and as moonlight flowed around her, it activated a Sound Transmission Scroll hidden beneath the carpet.
Last month, when Leonard tricked Aelia into drinking the Calming Potion, a secret phrase suddenly echoed through the room: "Wait until she sleeps for three days, then use the Wedding Ring to unlock 'In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure.' to obtain the Eternal Frozen Heart and cure your illness..."
"Impossible!" Aelia waved her sleeve, freezing the scroll, but the frost spread along the silk pillowcase she had embroidered with mandarin ducks.
From the frozen pillow core floated out the Mistress's silver handkerchief, on which was written in Blood Magic: "When the Eternal Winter Rose blooms, my love shall return with the key to 'In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure.'"
The entire Magic Castle suddenly shook violently as the Defensive Formation projected Leonard and the Mistress's Xu Ying onto the Dome.
Aelia staggered against an Ice Sculpture and an Obsidian Pillar, discovering that the pillar bore a modified Magic Contract—what was originally a vow of "In this life, only love Aelia" had been altered to "Master of the Eternal Winter Rose."
At that moment, Luna shone like a new moon, and those altered Contract Runes suddenly flowed backward and reformed.
As the true Marriage Certificate peeled away from the ice column, within the Hidden Layer, the Mistress's Dual Magic Circle was absorbing the magic Aelia had infused into the Wedding Ring over the years.
"Madam, be careful!" Qin Si rushed over to shield her from the suddenly exploding ice crystals. Amidst the splintering ice, an image of Leonard before he left yesterday emerged.
When he kissed Aelia on the forehead, powdered Eternal Winter Stone hidden in his sleeve was quietly sprinkled into her Rose Tea—a Chronic Poison that would gradually freeze a person.
Aelia's Guardian Bracelet on her wrist shattered with a sound, and twenty-eight Ice Bells rolled across the floor.
Each bell's core concealed different colored Eternal Winter Stones that her husband had gifted her over the years. Under the moonlight, they formed a Star Map Trajectory of Northern Consort Manor.
Amidst a baby's loud cry, Luna used her last strength to activate the ancient runes at the bottom of Three Brother Boots automatically.
As the golden light of the runes swept across the ground filled with evidence, all the ice crystals suddenly converged into a Magic Reflection. Leonard, holding the lifeless body of their deceased Eldest Son, vowed revenge, while the Infant Swaddling was adorned with the Mistress's Pearl Brooch.
The Dome Defensive Formation emitted a sound like tearing silk. The Guardian Barrier, drawn with Aelia's Heart's Blood over the past eighteen years, was now resonating with the Mistress's estate miles away through the Wedding Ring.
The Ice Crystal Chandelier reflected Aly Tang's increasingly pale face, her wrist being eroded by Poison Powder, revealing blood vessels that bore the same Magic Patterns as the Concubine's Vermilion Seal.
As the last Ice Mirror displayed the love poem her husband had burned in his study last night—clearly written using Aelia Family's Secret Technique for a Soul Transfer Spell—Luna saw within the Lady of the Fortress's Emerald Color Pupil, the Frost Snow of the Northern Territory beginning to condense.
The Crystal Chandelier above Aelia emitted faint cracking sounds as moonlight filtered through an Ice Spike, casting fragmented shadows on her pale face.
Her fingertips dripped with Ice Pearl; unshed tears formed Frost Flowers on her eyelashes, making her Emerald Pupils resemble emeralds preserved beneath a frozen lake.
"Madam..." Qin Si stepped forward, holding a blood-stained Jade Comb. Suddenly, a fragment of the Wedding Ring shot out from the wooden box, leaving three bloody marks on her hand.
The blood-stained shards of ice spread along the carpet's pattern, piecing together Leonard's gift to her last year during Dong Lian: a Snow Ferret Fur—its white edges clearly adorned with Eternal Winter Stones identical to those of the Mistress's Moonstone Earrings.
Luna curled her moonlit fingers in the Cradle, her Silver Light seeping into Qian Si Skirt's Dark Pattern.
The Maid stumbled and knocked over an Ice Sculpture candelabrum, which suddenly melted. Wax etched a Northern Territory Map onto the Bronze Base—remarkably aligning with the location of the Mistress's estate and Aelia's Dowry Winter Rose Garden.
"The first rose he gave me was an Eternal Flower frozen for thirty years using Ice Crystal Technique." Aelia's wrist Ice Bell suddenly chimed in unison; twenty-eight notes crystallized into an illusion of Ice Roses in the air.
As three of them fell and shattered upon hitting the ground, Luna recognized that their petal patterns were identical to those of the Concubine's Vermilion Seal's Magic Circle.
The Sound Transmission Scroll, frozen in the corner, suddenly cracked, and Leonard's voice echoed softly through Liang Zhu: "When the Eternal Frozen Heart is unsealed in the name of the Moon Goddess, your old ailment of coughing blood..." Before he could finish, Aelia coughed up a Blood Pearl that crystallized in midair into an Ice Arrow, piercing through the Ice Silk canopy adorned with a double Portrait. The arrow struck her husband's heart, revealing the outline of a half Pearl Brooch.
Luna suddenly felt a surge of heat, and the Protective Array surrounding the Cradle lit up with ancient runes.
Aelia's unawareness unleashed a violent Wind and Snow that began to sweep through the room. Ice crystals formed a mirror reflecting last year's Midsummer Night's Banquet—Leonard had leaned close to her ear while they danced, and the powder from the Eternal Winter Stone hidden in her collar had mingled with her hair as she breathed.
"So it was from that time..." Aelia touched her suddenly frosted Hair Tips, and the residual magic from her Wedding Ring backfired unexpectedly.
As she stumbled and fell onto the Ice Sculpture throne, the Crystal Rose Relief on the armrest came to life, stretching its branches. A Spike pierced her Palm, causing a Blood Pearl to drop and bloom into a Blood Rose on the Ice Surface, matching the kiss mark on Mistress's neck.
Luna quietly infused magic into the Hidden Layer of the Xingyue talisman in the swaddling blanket, and suddenly, the Dark Compartment at the bottom of the Cradle sprang open.
The Magic Contract that had gone missing three days ago was swept to Aelia's lap by a Cold Wind. The parchment's vow of "Eternal Loyalty" faded at an observable speed, revealing beneath it a contract written with invisible ink—the ownership of three Snow Crystal Mines in the Northern Territory inscribed with Mistress's middle name.
A roar echoed from the Dome as an Ice Layer fractured, extinguishing all eighteen Guardian Array pillars simultaneously.
The last fragment of Aelia's Wedding Ring melted in her Palm, transforming into Blue Mist that traced her husband's movements from last night—Leonard was not patrolling the border as claimed; instead, he had appeared by Mistress's estate at Jasmin Manor Hot Spring Pool, playing with Aelia's Key that had gone missing that morning.
As the final wisp of Blue Mist seeped into the Peacock Stone Tiles, a massive Magic Circle suddenly emerged from the ground throughout the entire chamber.
Luna recognized this as the foundational pattern for the Soul Transfer Technique from the Original. However, Luna's activated warning light collided with Aelia's uncontrollable Frost Magic.
In that moment of intertwining powers, a barrier formed from moonlight rose around the Cradle, blocking all rampaging Ice Blades just three steps away from Aelia.
Qin Si suddenly pointed at the frozen Grooming platform and exclaimed, "Madam, look in the mirror!" As the ice layer on the surface of the copper mirror peeled away, it no longer reflected Aelia's current appearance—within the mirror, her left eye had transformed into the eerie blue of Eternal Winter Stone, while her right side revealed the unique Rose Birthmark of Mistress, a clear sign of her soul being devoured in its mid-stage.
Luna bit her tongue and flicked a Blood Pearl towards the Crystal Chandelier, automatically activating the ancient Manifestation Spell hidden within.
The light spots cast by the chandelier created a complex Magic Flow Diagram on the wall. The Frost Power that should have belonged to Aelia was now continuously flowing through the Wedding Ring's Contract channel to some location in the Northern Territory.
The infant's pupils suddenly constricted as she saw that the endpoint of this energy was none other than Mistress's swollen abdomen—where a new life was greedily sucking away Aelia's Original Magic Power.
Aelia suddenly fell silent, her frost-tipped fingertips brushing over the second layer of the Dressing Table's Dark Compartment.
At the moment when the mechanism sprang open, the Ice Rose Necklace gifted by Leonard during his proposal flew into the air. The Eternal Ice Crystal embedded in its heart suddenly exploded, revealing a curled-up Mini Snow Sprite inside—this Little Sprite wore matching Eternal Winter Stone Moonstone Earrings with Mistress and was gnawing on an Ice Shard, which faintly reflected Aelia's increasingly haggard face.
A chilling cry from a Night Owl echoed outside as a large section of the Ice Layer on the Magic Castle's Outer Wall suddenly peeled away.
Aelia slowly rose, her skirt hem embroidered with Ice Lotus sweeping across the chaos on the ground, freezing into a sharp Ice Blade in an instant.
She lowered her gaze to observe the emerging Magic Backlash patterns on her hand, where Azure Purple veins were gradually forming into the totem of "Sacrificer" from ancient legends of the Northern Territory.
As a sound echoed from deep within the castle—"In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure."—Luna saw an Ice Rose suddenly sprout from Aelia's ring finger.
Thorny vines wrapped around Mistress's increasingly crystallized arm, refracting an eerie Purple Light under the moonlight—this was indeed the color of Mistress's estate's Outer Wall Eternal Rose.
