In the cellar, the frost that seeped from Han Qi clung to the Crystal Chandelier. Aelia gripped the Hand Back of the Emerald Forbidden Step, unleashing a surge of Azure Purple Blood Vessel.
The Blood Mist, formed from shattered rings, swirled in the air, reflecting the scene of her wedding vows from twelve years ago—Leonard had slipped the family heirloom Silver Moon Ring onto her ring finger, planting an everlasting Blazing Flower within the Magic Pattern.
“Madam, be careful!” Qin Si rushed over and grasped Aelia's trembling wrist, her sleeves embroidered with a Calming Spell instantly covered in frost.
Suddenly, Luna in the Baby Basket let out a Loud Cry. The swaddling cloth wrapped in Gold Thread moved on its own without wind, precisely entangling the Emerald Forbidden Step that was about to fall.
Aelia finally shifted her gaze from the Blood Mist to her daughter and noticed Luna's silver hair glowing with a Moon White Halo.
This was a sign of Magic Bloodline Resonance, indicating that the baby was trying to soothe her Mother with Innate Magic Power.
With aching eye sockets, she lifted her daughter. When her fingertip brushed against the still-damp bloodstains inside the swaddling cloth, she froze. “Qin Si, this bloodstain...”
“It’s from Luna when she broke free from her shell and got Phoenix Grass Juice on herself.” Qin Si lowered her head to tidy up the Baby Basket's magical Velvet Blanket, but her fingers hidden in her sleeve crushed a Transmitting Stone.
Three days ago, while changing Little Master’s bandages, she had clearly seen Luna drawing Dragon Scales patterns with her bloody fingertip on the Velvet Blanket, alongside a crooked scrawl that read "West Tower."
The sound of a wheelchair rolling over ice crystals shattered the silence. Her elder brother controlled the Elemental Mirror to approach the figure entangled in Blood Mist.
On Leonard's Last Night, a woman stroking her Pregnant Belly suddenly turned her head. The red light from the Magic Pattern on her collarbone pierced his remaining leg with pain. “Did Father ever consider that while using Secret Patterns to channel magic to Leonard's Concubine, Mother has to expend half of her magic every month to maintain your Blazing Flower?”
Leonard raised his hand to shatter the mirror image but was pinned against the stone wall by an abruptly manifested Ice Sword.
Aelia stepped over shards of Ice Spike while holding Luna; the Emerald Forbidden Step struck a mournful note against her waist. “Last year you said you wanted to borrow my Magic Source to reinforce the barrier, but in reality, it was to nourish that half-elf fetus?”
“Mother!” Lucius suddenly dragged Second Brother into the cellar as a Shadow Hound growled threateningly toward the West Tower.
Brother San stumbled in behind him, clutching the Family Ledger. The golden Suanpan Hua La formed by Transfiguration scattered across the floor. “Father withdrew three boxes of Moonstone last month; the accounts show it was for repairs on the East Wing, but this morning patrols discovered...”
Luna squirmed restlessly in Mother’s arms as the silver moon Luna on her nape suddenly grew hot.
Through tear-filled eyes, she saw Qin Si’s sleeve stained with Phoenix Grass juice—this was precisely the herb that could mask Magic Fluctuation in the Original Plot, allowing Aelia to remain oblivious until death about her husband nurturing his illegitimate child with her own magic.
"Wah—" The loud cry of the baby, filled with magical energy, shattered the ceiling light in the cellar. Moonlight poured through the cracks, illuminating Leonard and the Bloodstained Wedding Ring.
Aelia suddenly covered her heart and took two steps back. She finally saw the writhing Black Line within the Ring Face's Magic Pattern; it was a Soul Contract tainted by Dark Magic.
Taking advantage of the moment, Qin Si supported the swaying mistress, discreetly slipping the Dragon Scale Birthmark into her palm while adjusting her cloak.
Upon touching the familiar Magical Fluctuation at the edge of Luna, Aelia's pupils constricted—this was a Guardian Spell pattern she had created during her time as Luna. It was detailed in the Magic Notebook that had been stolen last year.
"Your father's mistress can manifest a Dragon Scale Birthmark after six months of pregnancy?" The eldest brother suddenly sneered. The woman in the Elemental Mirror had her collarbone and Magic Pattern explode, revealing scales unique to creatures from An Abyss beneath. "Or do you plan to have a bastard with demon blood replace Luna as heir to the Silver Moon Magic Pattern?"
Leonard's defense was drowned out by the howling of the Shadow Hound.
The Second Brother stared at the Bloodline winding in from the West Tower; it was residual material from the talisman he had made for their father three months ago.
Brother San trembled as he picked up the blood-stained Family Ledger with its Yellowed Pages, discovering that the tampered accounts used their mother’s most proficient Ice Crystal Encryption Technique.
Luna suddenly grabbed Aelia's cascading silver hair, her delicate baby fingers precisely tapping on Aelia's neck where her Magic Vein pulsed.
Countless Memory Fragments exploded—years ago, when Leonard proposed, he had planted a Blazing Flower that needed to be watered monthly with his wife's Heart's Blood to sustain its magic.
And on the night when Emerald Forbidden Step was lost, Aelia had fainted for an entire month due to magical exhaustion.
"So every time you say 'by the Blazing Flower as proof,' you were feeding off my life." Aelia's body erupted with ice crystals that shattered the Wedding Ring, and twelve Blazing Flowers cried out as they dissipated from the broken Magic Pattern.
She handed Luna over to Qin Si, her blood-stained skirt brushing against Leonard's rigid face. "Send word to activate the highest defenses of the Magic Castle before the Silver Moon trial ends..."
Suddenly, a muffled sound of Zhuan Shi moving came from deep within the cellar, and Luna's silver hair stirred without wind.
As Qin Si hurriedly retreated with the baby in his arms, he caught a glimpse of Dragon Scales flashing at the end of the Stone Steps illuminated by moonlight—the Magic Fluorescence dancing upon them was identical to the protective spell Aelia had embroidered for Luna last night.
Brother San's blood-stained Family Ledger and Yellowed Pages fluttered down onto the Marble Floor, and Ice Crystal Encryption Technique refracted intricate rays under the moonlight.
Aelia staggered as she leaned against the ice wall, watching the numbers that should have been protected by her unique magic twist into serpentine black patterns. It turned out that Leonard had not forgotten to extract every last bit of value from her, even while she was unconscious.
"Mother told me when she taught me the Ice Crystal Technique that the Ice Cracks of a Magic Contract begin to spread from trust," her elder brother said, maneuvering his wheelchair over the scattered shards of ice. The Elemental Mirror reflected the jagged remnants of his severed leg.
The magical wounds that should have healed were now oozing Hei Xue. "Father, do you know why my leg injury has not healed in ten years? Because every time you used the Family Secret Technique to treat me, you were secretly siphoning the Healing Power from Aelia's Bloodline!"
Suddenly, Second Brother drew the silver chain from the Shadow Hound's neck, and the blood-stained chain coalesced in midair into a Thorned Totem.
Three months ago, the fragment of the talisman he had crafted for Father flew in from the direction of the West Tower, clinking as it embedded itself in the center of the totem. "You said you needed my Alchemy skills to create a talisman to resist the Magic Tide, but in reality, you used my Soul Resonance as a locator to conveniently channel magic power to the Nefarious Offspring in the West Tower?"
Leonard wiped away the bloodstain at the corner of his mouth, and black mist seeped from the cracks in his Wedding Ring, wrapping around his Scepter. "Foolish! The Magic Castle needs a more powerful Heir. You three useless ones can't even..."
"So you gouged Mother’s bones to feed the Demon’s Child?" Brother San suddenly grabbed the Family Ledger and smashed it against the stone wall. The bloodied Yellowed Pages ignited in midair, burning into Azure Blue Flame.
Despite years of neglecting his training, his fingers formed a perfect Frost Curse Seal, freezing the black mist on Father’s Scepter into a grotesque Gui Mian. "Last year you said my Transfiguration was unworthy of inheriting the family business, yet you turned around and altered accounts using my invention, the Ice Crystal Encryption Technique—did you think stealing Mother’s notes would cover up the flow of magic?"
Luna squirmed uneasily in Qin Si's arms; her Nape Birthmark felt like it was burning. She saw Brother San's Burning Family Ledger revealing key evidence recorded by the original scribe—the tampered numbers of Ice Crystal Technique. If decrypted with Aelia's Wedding Ring patterns, it would show that the Magic Value consumed by West Tower was thirty times that used for repairs in East Wing.
"Wow—" The infant wrapped in a Gold Thread swaddling suddenly stiffened, precisely coiling around the midair Burning Family Ledger's Remnant Page.
Luna unleashed a Loud Cry filled with Innate Magic Power that shattered the Ice Layer. Moonlight streamed through cracks in the Cellar like a Silver Shuttle, projecting encrypted numbers onto the stone wall.
Aelia's pupils constricted as she recognized those Ice Crystal Patterns pulsing with her Heart Rate—they were precisely what she had embroidered as Guardian Spells on her husband's cloak lining during their wedding.
Leonard's Scepter suddenly erupted with Black Radiance, twelve wilted Blazing Flowers grotesquely blooming at its Staff Tip. "What do you all understand!"
"Within a century, the Magic Fortress Barrier will inevitably collapse, and only by merging with the Dark Abyss Bloodline..."
"So you stole Mother’s Dragon Scales and transferred them to the half-Demon Fetus?" Qin Si suddenly tore open the Infant Swaddling, revealing Luna's Heart, which glowed with a golden light that stung everyone's eyes.
The Maid trembled as she raised the Magic Imprint of the Dragon Scales. Two identical Curse Marks overlapped under the moonlight. "Last night, when the lady was embroidering the protective spell for the young miss, you said you were going to inspect the barrier for flaws, but in reality, you were giving that one in the West Tower tools to smuggle the Magic Imprint?"
A tremendous crash echoed from deep within the Cellar as Zhuan Shi collapsed. The Shadow Hound suddenly began barking furiously toward the West Tower.
Second Brother's Thorned Totem abruptly turned, and countless bloodied talisman fragments transformed into sharp arrows, pinning the Dragon Scales Skirt against the Stone Steps as it attempted to escape through the secret passage.
Aelia gazed at the woman who bore a striking resemblance to her; a Magic Pattern adorned her Collarbone. Suddenly, Aelia coughed up blood laced with ice crystals—clearly remnants of her original Pregnancy Spirit Spell from her Luna days.
"Mother!" Lucius hurriedly supported the swaying Aelia, but his Palm was cut by an Ice Spike from her Skirt.
The boy watched as Blood Pearl dripped onto the cracks of Father’s Scepter, giving rise to swirling black mist. He suddenly recalled Father’s whisper from three months ago while teaching him An Abyss magic: "A true guardian must abandon the weakness of their Bloodline."
Luna suddenly broke free from her swaddling and floated in mid-air, her silver hair shimmering with moonlight that coalesced into an ancient Magic Codex.
The delicate fingers of the infant pointed into the void, and the dark Contract Terms recorded in the original book began Emerging word by word—the black mist on Leonard's Staff resonated in sync with the heartbeat of the Demon Fetus in the direction of the West Tower.
Eldest Brother's Wheelchair emitted a sharp cry as Hei Xue surged from his severed leg, outlining a Sacrificial Array on the Ground.
"So my leg was your token for Demon’s Child?" Eldest Brother grimaced as he crushed the Elemental Mirror. The fragments of Leonard's Last Night that Father had "treated" him with over ten years reassembled, revealing how each treatment had drained his marrow of its Silver Moon Magic Pattern.
Second Brother's Thorned Totem suddenly ensnared his Wrist, and the Alchemist finally discerned the Soul Devouring Incantation hidden within the talisman.
Leonard abruptly plunged his Scepter into his Heart, and gushing Hei Xue instantly corroded the ice crystals on the ground. "Since you all wish to destroy the future of Magic Castle..." A screech from the Demon Fetus echoed from the direction of West Tower, causing the entire Cellar to begin shaking violently.
Aelia's bloodied Skirt transformed into an Ice Sealing Barrier but shattered inch by inch upon touching her husband’s Scepter—within that black mist were mixed remnants of her Blazing Flower Ashes that she had planted in her Wedding Ring years ago.
"Mother, be careful!" Lucius instinctively lunged forward to shield Aelia, and suddenly a silver moon Guang Wen emerged from his back, sharing its origin with Luna’s Luna.
Leonard's Scepter let out a mournful cry the moment it touched his skin, and the wilted Blazing Flower at the Staff Tip suddenly erupted with pure Jin Mang.
Luna's silver hair danced wildly in the Magic Turbulence, and the wisdom of the Great Mage flowed through the infant's Pupil.
She witnessed a hidden plot not written in the original book—Lucius bore a complete sealed Silver Moon Magic Pattern.
As the moonlight on the boy's back illuminated the cracks in the Scepter, those dark Contract Terms suddenly began to self-immolate.
"Impossible!" Leonard frantically struck at the rebounding Scepter, as the Dark Abyss Magic Pattern spreading across his chest was pushed back by the silver moonlight. "I clearly detected that you only had thirty percent of the Silver Moon Bloodline..."
Lucius stared blankly at his Palm, where a new moon Guang Wen path emerged. The Healing Magic that his Father had always told him was "useless" was now flowing through his Fingertip.
Suddenly, Second Brother pressed a blood-stained amulet fragment against his Hand Back, and the Thorned Totem transformed into a Healing Spell: "Three Months Ago you said you wanted to learn Alchemy to make amulets; it turns out it was for..."
The Cellar Dome was suddenly torn open by moonlight, and alarms blared from all twelve Defensive Towers of the Magic Castle.
Luna watched as the silver moon Judgment Array, which should have awakened three years later in the original book, descended early. The infant's Loud Cry, filled with magical power, finally shattered the last Dark Contract.
When Leonard's Staff completely shattered, everyone saw within the black mist of the Demon Fetus rising from the direction of the West Tower, entwined with Aelia's Wedding Oath Magic Pattern.
Lucius bent down to pick up half of the Wedding Ring that Father had dropped. The remnants of Blazing Flower Ashes suddenly Zhuo Tonged his Newborn Magic Rune.
The boy gazed at Mother, whose Pale Lucius was being backlash by ice crystals, and suddenly clenched the Wedding Ring Fragment in his blood-soaked Palm.
The Shadow Hound emitted an uneasy growl towards him as moonlight illuminated the frost crystallized on his eyelashes—mirroring the Tear Crystal at Aelia's eye corner with its similar brilliance.
Moonlight wound through Lucius' Palm like a broken river, and blood oozed from the cut made by the Wedding Ring Fragment, seeping Silver Blue Blood Pearls.
The boy looked at Father's distorted reflection on the ice wall and suddenly recalled that night on his twelfth birthday—when Leonard pressed an Abyss Magic Codex against his forehead, and the Blazing Flower Emblem at his Collarbone had flickered just like this.
"Third Young Master Lucius?" Qin Si stepped closer while holding Luna. The Gold Thread of Infant Swaddling suddenly wrapped around his blood-soaked fingers.
Lucius suddenly withdrew his hand, only to find Luna's silver hair resonating with his Newborn Magic Rune. Fragments of memories from his mother's pregnancy began to emerge.
Beside the ice crystal round table, Aelia pressed a blood-stained Emerald Forbidden Step against the Contract Astrolabe.
His elder brother's wheelchair rolled over the scattered ice shards, and a star map formed from elemental magic floated above the table. "The barrier has been damaged by 47%. The Dark Abyss Rift in the direction of the West Tower expands three inches every hour."
"The East Wing warehouse still has twenty boxes of Moonstone." Brother San's Transfiguration folded the Family Ledger Remnant Page into a three-dimensional model, with icy numbers reassembling into a Magic Castle Three-Dimensional Map under the moonlight. "If we activate Mother's Dome Restoration Spell from years ago, combined with Second Brother's Alchemy matrix..."
Suddenly, Second Brother pressed a silver chain from the Shadow Hound onto the Star Map. The fragments of the talisman reformed into a Light Web under the effects of Alchemy. "Father smuggled Dark Matter that contaminated the Geomancy; we must purify the foundation of the West Tower first." He traced his bloodstained fingertip across the twisted dark area on the Star Map, where black mist seeped out, originating from Leonard's Staff.
Luna let out a lactation burp in Qin Si's arms, her baby-blue pupils reflecting a red dot pulsating within the three-dimensional model—that was the coordinate of the Demon Fetus nest that only appeared later in the original book.
She struggled to wave her tiny hand wrapped in gold thread, and suddenly, the swaddling cloth entangled Second Brother's feather pen as he drew the Light Web.
"Miss, this is..." Qin Si exclaimed as he watched Luna draw a crooked arc on the Star Map. The magic ripple created by the gold thread automatically connected scattered talisman fragments.
When the baby's silver hair touched Brother San's Ice Crystal Model, a sealing array patterned with Phoenix Grass suddenly emerged from deep within the West Tower's foundation.
Aelia's fingertip froze as an Ice Spike halted abruptly. "This is the Guardian Array designed for Luna during pregnancy!" The Silver Moon Magic Pattern on her neck suddenly heated up, and memories flooded back—last year during Midsummer Night when they discovered that the Magic Notebook had been stolen, there had indeed been a reflection of Phoenix Grass juice flashing in the direction of the West Tower.
Lucius silently hid a Wedding Ring Fragment in his Dark Pattern pocket, and his skin beneath the fabric was immediately scorched with dragon scale-like scorch marks.
He looked at his mother—pale yet resolute Lucius—and suddenly became aware that those Healing Magics deemed "weak" by Father were now mending his elder brother's leg wound with sacrificial energy alongside moonlight.
"Complete three tasks before dawn tomorrow." Aelia's Emerald Forbidden Step crashed against the ice table, and magic surged from within the ice cracks, dyeing the Star Map an emerald color. "Lucius will lead Frostwolf Guard to purify the West Tower foundation; remember to retrieve the original Sealing Array that was stolen. Second Brother will reconstruct Alchemy Defensive Net; necessary materials can be drawn from my private stash in the name of the Moon Goddess. Old Three will use Transfiguration to reconstruct the East Wing Barrier model—especially in areas 'repaired' by Father."
His elder brother maneuvered his wheelchair to crush remnants of black mist in floor tile gaps while an Elemental Mirror reformed into a Magic Castle Hologram on his palm. "I will repair the monitoring system within four magic tides or moon phases." The newly formed Silver Moon Magic Pattern on his severed leg flickered suddenly. "However, we need Luna's Innate Magic Power as a resonance source."
At just the right moment, Luna let out a yiya sound, her baby fat little feet accurately kicking at the Demon Fetus coordinate on the Star Map.
Qin Si hurriedly supported her flailing arms but noticed that twisted tiny inscriptions written with Phoenix Grass juice were emerging from inside her swaddling cloth—"Cellar third brick gap."
As the crowd frantically pried open the Peacock Stone Tiles, Aelia gazed at Luna, glowing under the moonlight, and suddenly held her baby tightly.
The wedding vows torn apart by Leonard were now being reassembled with the milk fragrance emanating from her daughter.
She did not notice Lucius quietly retreating into the shadows, where the moonlight on the boy's back resonated with a seal deep within the Cellar.
"Madam, we have unearthed a tampered Pregnancy Spirit Spell tablet in the foundation of the West Tower!" The Captain of the Guards' Transmitting Spell suddenly erupted, and from the Magic Mirror emerged a Dragon Scale Rubbing stained with Phoenix Grass juice.
Aelia's Neck Magic Pattern abruptly contracted; it was the life spell she had designed for her unborn child during her seven months of pregnancy.
Luna suddenly grasped her mother's flowing silver hair, and Innate Magic Power surged through the strands into the Star Map.
The Demon Fetus Coordinate exploded in emerald light, revealing a deeper layer of the Dark Abyss Whirlpool beneath—inside, swirling Dark Matter resonated with the Wedding Ring Fragment in Lucius's pocket.
While everyone debated around the mutated Star Map, no one noticed a flicker of worry in the baby's silver hair.
Luna looked at the Dark Spot slowly spreading within the Magic Castle Model and recalled a detail overlooked by readers in the original book—Leonard had planted not only Blazing Flowers in the Wedding Ring but also Contract Scale Powder from the Dark Abyss Queen.
As the moonlight shifted past the seventh Pillar, Aelia finally rose with a drowsy Luna in her arms.
The baby curled up in her blood-stained swaddling cloth, her small brow furrowed into an unresolvable knot.
At the edge of her chaotic dreams, a faint sound of scales scraping against stone echoed from deep within the ruins of the West Tower, matching perfectly with Lucius's Magic Pattern Birthmark that darkened later in the original story.
