As the Ice Rose Fragment cut into Aelia Palm, Luna's Loud Cry suddenly transformed into a short burst of laughter.
The Magic Ripple wrapped around Xing Hui pierced through the walls, shattering all the Crystal Lamp Shades in the corridor.
The servants, who were polishing Silverware, were horrified to see the floating candle flames piecing together an illusion of a sea of violet flowers in the dim Lan Yue light.
"So you knew all along." Qin Si knelt amidst the scattered Ice Shards, trembling fingers brushing over the Guardian Charm where Xu Ying's eyes opened.
Aelia pressed the bloodied Ice Rose against her daughter's swaddling, watching as Luna suddenly paused in her action of biting at the petals with her Milk Tooth—bubbles from the baby's Tongue revealed Leonard and Mistress exchanging Wedding Rings in Lier County's Le Domaine during Leonard's Last Night.
Lucius on the cellar steps suddenly tightened his grip on the sword hilt.
Leonard's Sword, soaked in Blood Wine, was burning hot in his hand; the moonstone embedded in the hilt reflected a memory from three years ago when Father took him to inspect the Southern Region, where he met a tax collector's daughter who always wore a pouch of Orange Blossom Fragrance.
At that time, Father had said that girl's Ailia was a rare treasure spun by moonlight silkworms, and only now did he realize those cocoons should have been collected for the Magic Castle Treasury.
"Second Young Master, watch out!" The butler exclaimed as he lunged to push aside a swaying Wine Rack.
Second Brother was using a Suspension Spell to hold up a bursting Oak Barrel, but the magical Residual Shadow floating in the Dark Red Wine Liquid made his Pupil constrict—his "close friend," who had deceived him into practicing Forbidden Technique, had given him Orange Blossom Honeyed Wine last year during Ailya's Birthday Rune, which clearly carried violet dust identical to Father's cuff.
A sharp sound of a crystal ball shattering echoed from the attic.
Eldest Brother on the wheelchair gazed at the scattered glimmering shards; his Pale Fingertip brushed against a piece reflecting an Orange Blossom Bracelet.
Three Months Ago, an Ancient Shaman claimed he could heal his Twin Legs, and his Wrist bore a chain clasp with a Thorn Pattern just like those.
When Luna's laughter echoed from downstairs, he suddenly realized that the arrangement of those clasps unmistakably resembled "substitute" in Southern Region slang.
"Mother wants to replace all the Ice Sculptures in Wisteria Hall with black Obsidian?" Brother San paused while polishing Leonard's Sword; the Ice Pearl crystallized on Jian Sui suddenly revealed Leonard's Last Night when Father taught him Elemental Transmutation Technique.
Years ago, Father said that Ice to Fire was the most useless technique, yet at this moment, the Orange Blossom Bracelet emerging from the Ice Pearl was burning the Marriage Certificate—just like his failed experiment with the Ice Flame Technique yesterday.
Aelia dipped the blood-stained Guardian Charm into Luna's Luna's Milk Bowl, watching as Xu Ying's Emerald Eyes twisted into a Serpent Pattern within the milky-white whirlpool.
Qin Si suddenly snatched the bowl and hurled it out the window. The milk froze in mid-air into seventeen Ice Spikes, each one piercing a Violet Petal—exactly the number Leonard pinned to her collar every year on their wedding anniversary.
"Go fetch the Three Young Masters to choose new curtains," the lady said, stroking Luna's hair that automatically wove itself into a Southern Border Map. "Tell them I want to redecorate the master bedroom with Moonlight Silk." As the infant grasped her bleeding finger and pressed it against the ice wall, the entire Wall suddenly emerged with dense Mama's accounts, revealing seven entries in Lier County's Le Domaine that flowed into a Dark Account for Orange Blossom Manor.
Lucius found a 1973 Oak Barrel deep in the Cellar.
The moment Sword Tip pried open the seal, an Orange Blossom Fragrance enveloped a yellowed Qing Jian, with a date inscribed from three months before his birth.
When moonlight illuminated the Letterhead with the words "Our Child," the young man suddenly recalled Father's Study and Ankeli's short sword adorned with Orange Blossom gems—the Jian Qiao pattern shared its weaving technique with Leonard's Sword's Liu Su.
As Luna's Loud Cry echoed through the castle once more, frost began to form on all positions where Family Crests hung.
The Young Master in his Wheelchair rolled over the corridor carpet, watching as Gold Thread embroidered violets transformed into an Orange Blossom Pattern within the ice crystals; the Second Young Master's Spellbook opened on its own, stopping at the page detailing "Soul Exchange"; and the Third Young Master's Jian Sui burned spontaneously, revealing a fragment of Moonlight Silk among the Ashes.
"The tea party tomorrow should use freshly picked violets." Aelia was combing her hair with an Ice Spike Hairpin in front of a mirror while observing Qin Si pouring Orange Blossom Essential Oil into Luna's Bath Water.
As bubbles splashed up from where the infant was patting the water's surface, they revealed Father signing the Property Transfer Document during Leonard's Last Night. Suddenly, a Blood Pearl dropped from the lady’s hairpin and froze into a Micro Blade, precisely piercing each bubble emerging with an Orange Blossom Mark.
When moonlight shifted to the third stone pillar in the Cellar, Lucius’s Jian Feng captured the last Residual Shadow within the Wine Liquid.
Father held onto Zhi Hen, missing from his left pinky where he wore the Orange Blossom Bracelet. It perfectly matched the Wear Marks inside his Inheritance Ring that bore the inscription: In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure.
The young man suddenly remembered last week when Father stroked his Leonard's Sword and said, "Liu Su should be replaced with a more stable style," realizing only now how similar that tone was to Xu Ying’s whispers within the Guardian Charm.
Atop the castle, the Astrolabe began to spin wildly as Luna cast a Projection of Southern Border Map onto the Dome.
The Young Master discovered that the coordinates of Lier County overlapped with the Magic Circle Core on his wheelchair armrest. The Spellbook of the Second Young Master revealed an Ancient Contract modified by Father in the Projection, while the Sword Hilt Gem of the Third Young Master reflected the Fire Seal on the Qing Jian—precisely the Template Father had used when instructing him to practice the Magic Seal.
As the Midnight Bell Tolls rang once more, the violet Dark Pattern on Leonard's cuff transformed into Orange Blossom in every corner of the castle.
Luna's Crystal Pacifier dripped with starlight Blood Pearls, merging into a miniature Southern Territory Sand Table at Aelia's Palm.
The lady watched her daughter sketch out a marching route with saliva, finally revealing a cold smile befitting the mistress of the castle.
When the moonlight climbed to the fourth stone pillar of the Cellar, Lucius's Sword Tip condensed into Jiu Zhu and suddenly exploded, splattering liquid that formed seven glowing Southern Territory Scripts in midair.
The young man stared at the floating "Illegitimate Child Inheritance Rights" Tiny Inscriptions, his knuckles nearly crushing the Orange Blossom silver threads entwined around the sword hilt.
He remembered this Leonard's Sword, gifted by Father on Ailya's sixteenth birthday; at this moment, it felt like holding a Silver Ring Snake laced with poison.
"Third Young Master, the lady requests you to choose curtains," a servant's voice startled him back a step, his Boot Heel colliding with an Oak Barrel, producing a hollow echo.
He gazed at the scattered fragments of Qing Jian on the ground and suddenly noticed that each piece of burning Ashes danced through the Floor Tile Gap, piecing together a hidden map between Orange Blossom Manor and Magic Castle.
In the attic, his elder brother was dismantling the Wheelchair Armrest into a Star Chart shape. The Magic Circle Core, glowing with Purple Light, coincidentally overlapped with Lier County's Coordinate on the Southern Border Map.
When he struck the formation eye with a Silver Spoon, emerging from Le Domaine and Xu Ying were Deed Terms modified by Father—those Mithril meant for repairing Magic Castle's defenses had been melted down into thirty-six Orange Blossom Crest Rings.
"The Spellcasting Materials for Soul Exchange Technique..." The Second Brother's Fingertip traced over the yellowed pages of the Spellbook when suddenly, Tiny Inscriptions annotated by Father seeped Dark Red Blood Droplets.
As a Blood Pearl rolled onto the phrase "Close Blood Relatives," Azure Blue Flame erupted from the Yellowed Pages, revealing an Heir Replacement Agreement written in Invisible Ink within an Additional Clause.
Brother San's Sword Hilt Gem cracked open, and the falling shards bounced off the Ground to form Father's Mistress's visage.
When he used Ice Flame Technique to burn these shards, melted Silver Water flowed back along Leonard's Sword's patterns, revealing Spell Syllables that Father had secretly altered while teaching him Elemental Transmutation Technique—those Errors had led to three years of his inability to break through as an intermediate Mage.
Aelia carried Luna through the corridor adorned with the Frost Clan Emblem, when suddenly, the silver rattle that the baby was gnawing on emitted a loud sound reminiscent of Zhong Ming.
Lady Aelia paused to gaze at the emerging Orange Blossom Fire Seal on the surface of the bell, realizing that the pattern drawn by Luna's drool perfectly matched the seal of a certain treasure box deep within a forbidden area.
Just then, Qin Si appeared holding a sample of Moonlight Silk, and from the swaddling, seventeen ice crystals shaped like Milk Teeth suddenly flew out, precisely pinning themselves onto each Silk marked with its place of origin.
"Brother San's Jian Sui and Liu Su are missing two strands," Luna suddenly mumbled incoherently, her emerald eyes reflecting the nearly severed silver threads on Lucius's Leonard's Sword.
The trembling boy in the cellar suddenly noticed that within the Orange Blossom silver threads wrapped around the sword hilt lay an extremely fine Magic Circuit, identical to what he had discovered yesterday in his Father's Study—specifically in the Dark Compartment—where he found the Curse Doll's Hair.
As the Midnight Bell tolled for the second time, all Frost Clan Emblems simultaneously oozed Orange Blossom Juice.
The Young Master's Wheelchair Armrest Magic Circle automatically reconfigured into a Southern Territory Sand Table, while a Blood Pearl that had fallen from the second young master's Spellbook drew a Soul Exchange Formation Diagram on the ground. From Brother San's Leonard's Sword crack emerged a large amount of forged cultivation records.
Luna clutched Aelia's Pearl Necklace and laughed heartily, each pearl reflecting her Father’s seventeen rings in various settings—each gemstone hiding a miniature Contract Scroll within.
When a sound of shattering porcelain echoed from the Castle West Wing, Lucius's Leonard's Sword finally snapped its Liu Su.
The scattered silver threads twisted in the moonlight into the likeness of Father as a young man, handing over a baby wrapped in an Orange Blossom swaddle to a Veiled Woman.
The boy suddenly recalled the day he awakened his magic; Father had stroked his head and said, "Your eye color takes after your grandmother from the Southern Region." At that moment, he realized that the grandmother in the Image of "In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure" distinctly had violet-gray eyes.
