As Lucius retreated to the edge of the altar with Luna in his arms, the infant's neck, marked by the Dark Moon Birthmark, suddenly erupted with Youguang.
The small handprints stained with Dragon Blood on his elder brother's knee transformed the shards of Eternal Night Stone into Ying Huo-like Xing Mang, burrowing into his withered veins.
"Is this... the Light and Dark Reversal Technique?" The young man in the wheelchair pressed down on his trembling knee.
Five years ago, he had been paralyzed due to forcibly merging with the Dark Element, and now he felt an ant-like itch at the site of his injury.
Luna spat out a Luna that shimmered with Zi Wu and suddenly grabbed the Obsidian Pendant hanging from Second Brother's chest.
The talisman gifted by a "close friend" shattered with a sound, revealing a Soul Crystal wrapped around a Poison Spider Egg—the very cause of Second Brother's Magic Turbulence.
"Sister, be careful!" As Brother San rushed over, the infant's hand, smeared with Honey Biscuit Crumbs, slapped against his right hand marked by Ailina's Burn.
The pseudo-Elemental Totem in the void suddenly twisted and reformed, unveiling the true Starry Sequence.
In Brother San's Pupil, a Silver White Star Trail exploded, and those Errors that had troubled him for ten years suddenly became clear through the chaotic gestures of the infant.
The shadow of Twelve Wings on the altar Dome emitted a deafening Screech.
Leonard's cloak, embroidered with Gold Thread, billowed without wind as he stepped closer to Aelia on the melting biscuit Asphalt. "How much longer will you indulge this Demon?"
"Demon?" The rose at the tip of Aelia's wand, which had wilted, suddenly bloomed anew. She fixed her gaze on her husband's cloak, stained with Blue Iris Pollen—the favorite of Noble Young Ladies in the royal capital. "Why don't you explain why the Teleportation Circle in West Tower was activated last night at Midnight?"
The Crypt fell into an eerie silence.
Seizing the moment, Luna grasped Brother San's fingers and dipped them into her silver Lavender Liquid seeping from Luna, drawing a Reversal Spell on her elder brother's Wheelchair Armrest.
As the infant bit down on Second Brother's Fingertip and flicked a Blood Pearl into the void, the entire Dragon Slayer Formation suddenly reversed direction, enveloping Leonard in a Bloodlight Column.
"Father, be careful!" Lucius exclaimed suddenly.
Only then did everyone realize that Lord's shadow had split to reveal an alluring female silhouette—clearly an imprint of a high-level Succubus Contract.
Aelia staggered and leaned against Saintess Mural.
Qin Si, crying, brought over a gentleman's handkerchief stained with lip prints. "This was found this morning in West Tower, along with this." The young maid unfolded a silk pouch embroidered with a Canary, revealing remnants of Charming Magic that caused the Blood Tears flowing from the mural to instantly evaporate into Hong Wu.
"Let the stars of Glorious Demon Fortress bear witness!" The rose at the tip of Aelia's wand turned to Ashes, and the necklace of inheritance that had belonged to her family for three hundred years shattered with a sound. "Leonard von Krahl, do you dare swear with a True Word Spell that you have never kept Leonard's Concubine?"
Lord suddenly raised his hand, freezing all exits.
The melted cookies Asphalt transformed into Black Vines, wrapping Luna's Cradle towards the abyss. "The Prophecy Temple has long declared this child to be a Disaster Star; how dare you..."
His voice abruptly cut off.
An ancient Star Map suddenly projected from Luna's neck, and the vines entwining her began to bloom into Blood Roses.
The infant Laughter giggled as it grasped a flower vine, and the Reversal Spell on Brother Wheelchair unexpectedly spread along the Earth Rift, transforming the entire altar into a Hexagram Judgment Array.
"The Crypt is responding to her!" Lucius pressed down on the wildly beating Dark Moon Emblem.
The long-sealed Saintess Mural suddenly opened its gem-studded eyes, and the Succubus Mark in Leonard's shadow emitted a burnt smell in the holy light.
In her dizziness, Aelia saw her husband's twisted face.
The Heart Rose they had planted together eighteen years ago during their wedding was now wilting in patches at the highest point of Magic Castle.
When she felt the Marriage Contract Scroll in her sleeve pocket suddenly ignite, she finally heard the sound of her heart shattering.
"Father!" Lucius's scream was drowned out by the sudden collapse of the Dome.
Luna was thrown into the air by Second Brother, and the infant's flying swaddling created a brilliant Star Trail that turned falling boulders into a shower of flowers.
Brother San suddenly raised his right hand, which regained its radiance, as those Error totems that had troubled him for years reassembled into the correct sequence amidst the floral rain.
When the last stone slab crashed beside Leonard's feet, Luna was sprawled on her elder brother's knee, blowing bubbles.
The young man incredulously touched his warm knee—where the Nerves had been silent for five years, now stirred slightly like spring grass awakening.
The starlight of the Magic Castle Dome suddenly became unusually bright.
As the Hei Ban on Second Brother's chest faded, an eerie cry from the Prophecy Bird echoed outside the window.
Brother San's right hand, devoid of Awareness, waved aimlessly in the air, and this time the Elemental Totem he traced caused the remnants of the Black Rose on the altar to bear fruit instantly.
From deep within the Crypt came a roar of chains breaking, as if some being sealed for a thousand years was awakening to Luna's light.
On the seventh day of the falling starflower rain, a long-awaited roar emerged from the Glorious Demon Fortress's East Tower.
Elder Brother, supported by the newly sprouted Blood Rose Vines, stood trembling. His Right Leg, shriveled from Magic Backlash, bathed in morning light, melting the frost-laden Window Lattice into flowing Yin Sha.
Brother San leaned against the Alchemical Chamber's Door Frame with a light laugh. As his right hand danced, he reshaped the Star Totem, causing the boiling Magic Potion in the Copper Kettle to transform into a phoenix that carried Second Brother's freshly purified Poison Spider Egg toward the West Tower's Castle Spire.
"Sister, watch closely!" Second Brother said as his Fingertip entwined with the purified Dark Element, condensing cursed debris from the collapsing Crypt into a Mo Yu Qi Pan.
As pieces collided on the board, withered Heart Rose branches unexpectedly sprouted tender shoots at its edge, startling the Prophecy Bird in Eaves Corner as it flapped its cobalt blue tail feathers and crashed into Luna's Cradle.
The infant's neck suddenly felt hot.
Luna grasped a fallen tail feather from the Prophecy Bird and pressed it against a charred fragment of a Marriage Contract Scroll stained with Milk Stain on Aelia's sleeve.
The Scorch Mark spreading across the Parchment suddenly began Emerging with Ice Cracks. The vows consumed by flames reformed into a dark purple Celestial Chart within those Ice Cracks, perfectly aligning with the prophecy Track revealed by the Saintess Mural when the Crypt collapsed.
"Madam, the Succubus' lingering presence in the West Tower has been completely cleared." Qin Si entered holding a family necklace shattered into eight pieces but noticed that a Sapphire embedded with the Klawl Family Crest was floating and spinning above Luna's Palm.
The infant gnawed mindlessly at the edge of the gem, and the silver-purple liquid seeping from the tooth marks surprisingly repaired the ice cracks into a new moon pattern entwined with thorns.
Suddenly, a crisp sound of shattering crystal echoed from the attic.
Aelia's tracking spell, which Zhang Jian had yet to finish casting, abruptly extinguished. She gazed out at the fields of Night Blooming Roses—those were the Love Flower Fields that Leonard had nurtured with Heart's Blood.
Now, all the thorny stems pointed towards the ruins of the Crypt, twisting under the moonlight into the outline of some sacrificial array.
"Father is restarting the Abyssal Corridor." Lucius, hidden in shadows, could hardly contain himself. He pressed down on Luna's flailing little feet. "Sister, the altar sealed on the night of the full moon..." Before he could finish his sentence, Brother San's Star Totem suddenly went out of control. The Phoenix Mirage held a Poison Spider Egg that crashed into Luna's cradle, but upon touching Luna's radiance, it expanded into a massive cocoon with bloodshot markings.
Aelia's magic robe swept away the cocoon but staggered back a step as the silk snapped.
She belatedly realized that a Rose Hairpin—a Token of Love she had never been without for eighteen years—was missing from her hair. At that moment, faint traces of Magic Resonance emanated from underground.
Luna suddenly smiled at the spinning Sapphire Laughter.
The newly repaired New Moon Necklace flew automatically towards the Magic Castle Dome, embedding itself in the center of a fragmented Star Chart.
Everyone simultaneously heard the Magic Chanting within their bloodlines; those Glory Oaths that had flowed for three hundred years were being rewritten by an unknown force.
The moonlight shifted over Shan Na as Luna’s fingertip, touched with silk and devoid of awareness, brushed against the remnants of her engagement.
In a certain altered coordinate within the Celestial Chart, dual shadows suddenly reflected in her eyes—ancient characters recording the fall of the First Generation Saintess burned into her retina with light gold ke hen.
