The Ice Crystal Long Skirt rippled in the Ley Line Energy as Aelia stumbled into the Bronze Star Atlas, and suddenly, blood-red Light Spots seeped from the swaddling cloth cradling Luna.
Qin Si hurriedly discarded the Sugar Coated Silver Tray, bracing against the swaying Amethyst Pillar just before the Celestial Chart came crashing down.
"Madam, be careful!" The maid, wearing an apron embroidered with Honeysuckle Patterns, caught the edge of the control panel. The Magic Water crystal ball hidden in her Dark Bag emitted a faint hum.
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Luna staring at the back of her neck, the baby's pink fist clutching half a Starlight Stone.
Aelia shoved her daughter into Qin Si's arms as Ice Blue swept across the Mithril Console, and twelve floating Moonlight Stones exploded in succession.
As the Projection of the Umbilical Blood Mithril Cabinet appeared in the Dome, a Blood Pearl surged from her throat and fell onto Luna Mei Xin, transforming into a triangular ice crystal. "Use your Prophetic Talent; I need to know about Sheng Lu in the Glorious Demon Fortress."
Qin Si took a half-step back while holding the infant, feeling the crystal ball grow hot in her palm.
She vividly recalled how, three days ago, while delivering a Secret Letter for the Lord, Leonard's black mist had coiled around the Divination Tool.
At that moment, within the swirling Dark Red vortex inside the sphere, an Outsider Woman's Iris Flower Necklace faintly emerged alongside Leonard's presence.
"Mother... it hurts..." Luna suddenly murmured incoherently, her chubby little feet kicking off the swaddling cloth.
Fragments of an Emerald Pendant shot from her neck, precisely embedding themselves into Qin Si's crystal ball's Twelve Houses. The rampaging Guardian Dragon Xu Ying instantly froze into an amber-colored light mass.
Aelia's Ice Crystal Boots crunched over the scattered Star Sand as she suddenly grasped the maid's wrist.
She failed to notice Qin Si’s face turning pale in an instant—the crack on the back of the crystal ball was oozing Violet Venom identical to Leonard's cufflinks.
"Three years ago, you could divine Lucius's Bloodline Curse; now..." The Lady of the Fortress's voice trailed off as she staggered to support herself against a Stone Chair etched with ancient runes. The Golden Handrail was gripped tightly, forming five Ice Spikes. "Even the Umbilical Cord Blood is tainted; what remains clean in this castle?"
Luna suddenly burst into giggles, her small hands patting the surface of the crystal ball.
Qin Si looked in horror at the swirling Star Trail in the infant's pupils—exactly the ominous sign she had seen in the Divination room last night.
When the baby’s Milk Tooth bit through her sleeve, the violent Wind and Snow emerging from the sphere suddenly shifted, revealing a corner of a flag embroidered with Elvish Language.
"Madam, look!" Qin Si deliberately let the crystal ball roll to Aelia's feet, using her Starry Gown to cover the crack on the back of the sphere.
The Emerald Fragment cast a distorted image under the moonlight: twenty years ago, during the signing of the pact, the Elven Queen had gifted the First Generation Fortress Master a Silver Birch Bow, which was now resonating deep within, proclaiming, "In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure."
Aelia's Frost Power overflowed uncontrollably, freezing half of the astrology hall.
She didn’t notice that Qin Si had secretly hidden a poisoned shard of the crystal ball in her Hair Bun, nor did she see Luna drawing the Elven Tree of Life totem on the Ice Surface with her saliva-covered finger.
"To the west..." Qin Si stared at the glowing trail left by the infant, her voice trembling. "In the direction of the Ancient Battlefield Ruins, something is resonating with the Guardian Dragon." She swallowed the latter part of her prophecy—the last image shown by the crystal ball was of a Star-Moon Mark identical to Luna’s, worshipped at the altar of the Elven Royal Court.
A roar from outside announced the shattering of an Ice Layer as Aelia held her daughter up to her eyes.
Moonlight filtered through Luna’s transparent ear, casting a shadow resembling an Elven pointed ear on the wall; those Light Spots slowly gathered into a map of their westward route.
The Lady of the Fortress bit her Fingertip and drew an outline of a Thorned Crown on her baby's forehead. "Prepare the Dragon Scale Boat; we depart at Dawn."
As Qin Si bent down to pick up the fallen crystal ball, Luna suddenly tugged at her dangling Hair.
The Emerald Fragment hidden in her silver hair suddenly heated up, reflecting a scene beneath a towering tree eight hundred kilometers away—at an altar surrounded by twelve Elder Dark Elves lay a Lustrous Cradle identical to that of Glorious Demon Fortress and First Generation Family Head's Notebook.
The sound of footsteps crystallized in ice echoed through the corridor as Aelia entered the Assembly Hall with Luna in her arms; suddenly, a Magic Pattern Sash that had hung for a century snapped.
At that moment when Liujin and Ailya dropped their pendants, Luna reached out with her small hand covered in Star Sand and precisely caught the falling Amethyst Button—it was Leonard's boutonnière from his wedding day.
"Mother, Liang Jing Jing." The infant stuffed the Button into Aelia's palm, and the Frost Power surprisingly melted the oath Emblem frozen on the surface of the Crystal.
The Lady of the Fortress's fingertip trembled, and as the Twenty-Year Marriage Contract curse dissipated into mist, the Crystal Chandelier reflected the Ice Pearl that had formed at her brow.
Lucius knelt on one knee to receive orders, and a faint scent of Bloodvine seeped from the gap in his chainmail.
Aelia was unaware of the Elven Pollen that stained San Zi's cuffs, nor did she notice the half-wilted Moonlight Grass tangled in his cascading silver hair—last night he had secretly dealt with the Eye Shadow that Father had placed in the Stable.
"Take the Silver Birch Bow of the First Patriarch." Aelia pressed the Ice Crystal Key into Lucius's palm; as the key's Tooth Mark cut into his fingertip, Luna suddenly reached out to press down on the bleeding wound.
Frost Flowers crystallized on the baby's eyelashes fell softly, forming a miniature Elven Rune on the surface of the Blood Pearl.
Leaning against the Starfall Stone staff, her elder brother suddenly coughed violently, and the Staff Tip embedded with Long Jing burst forth with Spider Web patterns.
His right hand, marred with curse scars, pressed against Lucius's Leonard's Pauldron, and a broken Magic Circuit scorched a Scorch Mark on the armor: "The Elven Royal Court still harbors resentment over the Black Marsh Battle three hundred years ago. If they see their necks adorned with moonblade tattoos..."
Suddenly, Second Brother's Phantom Clone stepped out from the mirror, startling dust from the shattered Contract Scroll in hand.
The Slave Brand on his neck glimmered with Azure Light under the moon: "Don't forget eighty years ago when Grandfather deceived the elves with a false map of Stellar Iron Mine distribution." As Xu Ying reached out to touch Luna's swaddling, the infant unexpectedly expelled an ice bubble that froze the Cursed Black Mist wrapped around his fingertip into Ice Shard.
When Qin Si entered holding a Star Pattern Silver Plate, the Crystal Wine Jug suddenly exploded.
She skillfully caught the splashing Qiong Jiang with her skirt but let slip an Emerald Fragment hidden in her bosom as she bent down.
Luna's pupils suddenly constricted; in the reflection of the emerald, twenty Elven Warriors aimed their bows at Lucius's throat.
"Madam!" The maid suddenly pointed at the Dome in alarm.
On the floating Magic Sand Table, the Ice Sculpture representing the Glorious Demon Fortress was melting, while the Emerald Seedling symbolizing the Elven territory broke through the soil.
Luna Yi Ya waved her small hand, and Milk Stain traced a winding light path at the edge of the sand table—the very Secret Passage Map leading to the ancient battlefield.
Aelia's Ice Crystal Long Skirt fluttered without wind as she tore off her Obsidian Necklace and threw it towards the sand table.
Twelve gemstones transformed into Ice Falcons that circled around Lucius. When the last falcon pecked at the cursed Poison Fog on the sand table, Luna suddenly reached out and caught one of them.
The Ice Falcon melted in her palm into a steaming Crystal Baby Bottle, exuding the unique Lily of the Valley Fragrance of the Elven Holy Spring.
"Set off from the Rose Corridor at dawn." The Lady of the Fortress used Frost Snow to draw a route map on Lucius's armor, pressing heavily at the heart position. "Remember to show this mark to the Elven Sentinel when passing through Moonlight Marsh." The ice crystal formed a half-complete Family Crest at her fingertip—it was Luna's other half.
Suddenly, her elder brother's magic staff let out a mournful cry, its body emerging with a Warning totem from Three Hundred Years Ago's High Priestess.
He stumbled and knocked over a Bronze Candlestick, but just as flames were about to engulf the Contract Document, Luna's Ice Mist froze it into an eternal torch shape.
The baby girl Laughter giggled as she tapped on her crystal swaddling, each crisp sound brightening the Elven Script on the Document.
Qin Si leaned closer to the sand table while organizing the Document, her poisoned fingertip stealthily erasing a crucial mark.
As she turned around, an Emerald Fragment hidden in her Hair Bun suddenly burned her scalp—Luna was using a Starlight Stone shard as a mirror, refracting light onto her secretive ear.
"Madam, it's time to give the young lady her medicine." The maid lifted a bubbling Purple Potion but was stopped by her elder brother's magic staff as she extended it.
The Staff Tip's dragon eye suddenly opened, turning the potion into a terrifying crimson color.
Luna abruptly knocked over the medicine bowl, and the spilled liquid corroded the Ground, etching out "Traitor" in Elven Script.
Aelia's Ice Blue Eyes narrowed like a Needle Tip.
She tore off Qin Si's left ear Moonstone Earrings and threw them into the fireplace, where the flames revealed the Outsider Woman playing with the same jewelry from Leonard's Last Night.
Seizing the opportunity, Luna grabbed an Emerald Seedling from the sand table and stuffed it into her mouth. The tender sprout blossomed into a glowing map, with her Tongue pointing towards the Spirit Altar's Coordinate.
As the last Ice Falcon crashed through the Colored Window and soared into the night sky, Aelia lifted Luna into the moonlight.
The Star Moon Birthmark on the infant's nape suddenly projected Xu Ying of the Spirit Altar, and the chanting of the Twelve Elders echoed through time and space in the Assembly Hall.
Lucius's Silver Armor was emerging with Ancient Vines patterns, a mark of recognition from Elven Royalty for the covenant Heir.
"To tie the future of the Magic Castle..." Aelia's voice suddenly choked. She tore a strand of silver hair and wrapped it around Lucius's sword hilt, her Hair instantly crystallizing into an Ice Crystal Chain. "To bind it to your blade."
As the moonlight shifted to the East Wing Tower, Luna suddenly pointed out the window and cried out loudly.
Aelia followed her finger and looked outside, where the Wisteria Arbor draped with Bing Ling reflected the outline of their wedding balcony—Twenty Years Ago, Leonard had placed a Wedding Ring embedded with Spirit Tear Crystal on her finger there.
At that moment, Bing Ling suddenly snapped, and the Shattered Crystal fell into the Fountain Pool, piecing together half a heart. The reflection on the water's surface showed her husband's half, already corroded by black mist into a grotesque face.
The Wisteria Ice Crystal fell into Shan Na of the fountain, Leonard's sigh wrapped in black mist condensed between the Pillars.
This Glorious Lord of the Demon Fortress reached out to catch a piece of floating ice. The Dark Pattern gloves suddenly bloomed with Iris Embroidered Shoes, restoring the water's reflection to a complete Wedding Ring shape.
"I remember that night you gave birth; the moonlight shattered just like this on the delivery room Window Lattice." He lightly tapped his knuckles against the Ice Surface, and the Obsidian Wedding Ring's surface emerged with memories of that day—Aelia soaked in blood yet still holding premature Luna aloft with ice crystals while he knelt outside, using Contract Magic to sacrifice half of Ten Years to the Twelve Zodiac Palaces.
Aelia's Ice Crystal Earrings suddenly exploded into Powder, startling Luna in her arms, causing her to let out a Lactation Burp.
The cream oozing from the infant's mouth solidified in the air like a sharp arrow, piercing three inches into Leonard's throat: "The Brand you left during the Sacrifice, has it truly not tainted Leonard's Concubine's Bedroom with Iris Fragrance?"
The Gilded Candelabra suddenly shook violently, and from the swirling black mist of Leonard's cloak emerged the Holy Spring of the Elven race.
Kneeling by the spring, the Outsider Woman lifted her face, her Neck adorned with an Iris necklace absorbing the Violet Venom seeping from the spring's depths.
Luna suddenly reached out towards the illusion, and the Star Sand hidden in her flesh burned through the mist, revealing a vine tattoo on her ankle identical to Lucius's armor.
"Three years ago, you barged in with High Fever Lucius amidst the raging Wind and Snow..." Leonard raised his hand to freeze the dissipating illusion, encasing Aelia in an Ice Layer where Lucius sang Healing Spell throughout the night. "Did you ever think of betrayal when I cut my Wrist to divert the Frostwolf pack with Blood Curse?"
Aelia's Ice Crystal Boots crushed the Poison Vine that had emerged from the Floor Tile Gap, and Luna suddenly spat out a string of Colorful Bubbles.
Each bubble burst to reveal different scenes of Leonard's Last Night—last year's Midsummer Night when Leonard met with Leonard's Concubine in Moonlight Marsh, the previous Full Moon Night when he appeared with Elven Pollen on his cuff at In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure. The dark door sealed Luna's Prophecy Crystal with a poisoned Wedding Ring three days ago.
"Your sincerity is more tainted than the miasma of Moonlight Marsh!" Aelia tore off her Ice Crystal Necklace and threw it to the Ground, twelve Ice Soul Pearls bouncing together to form the Oath Array from their wedding years ago.
As the last pearl rolled to Leonard's feet, it suddenly reflected the Outsider Woman kissing a Contract Scroll—the marriage contract that had been altered using the Elven race's Forbidden Technique.
Leonard's Magic Cloak suddenly transformed into Heiyan, burning the Curse in Elvish Language inscribed as "Living and Dying Together" in the Formation Diagram to Ashes.
He reached out to touch the Frost Flower crystallized on Luna's Swaddling but was interrupted by the sudden opening of the infant's Xing Tong. The Fingertip revealed a swirling Pupil that held remnants of what he had secretly destroyed last night—the First Generation Family Head's Notebook Remnant Page.
"When you placed the Spirit Tear Crystal Ring on my finger back then..." he flipped Ailia’s Burn over to reveal an Old Scar shaped like a crescent moon on her Palm. "Could you see now that you must atone for two hundred withered Tree of Life Root Systems?"
Luna’s Luna projected a holographic image of the Spirit Altar, where Xu Ying among the Twelve Elders pointed an arrowhead at Leonard’s Head of House Badge.
Aelia’s Ice Blue Hair moved without wind, freezing the image at the center of the altar—the Lustrous Cradle—where inscriptions could only be unlocked by those of Leonard Family and Illegitimate Bloodline containing an Ancient Elf Forbidden Spell.
"You dare to use Luna's fetal blood to nourish the Forbidden Spell!” Aelia's Ailya's Roar shattered ten Colored Windows, and the splintered Liuli Fragments coalesced in the air into three hundred Ice Arrows.
Suddenly, the Emerald Pendant around Luna's neck erupted with a Green Light, redirecting all the Ice Arrows toward Leonard's heart.
The Head of House Badge on Leonard's chest cracked open, oozing Azure Blood that originated from the Spirit Altar.
He smiled bitterly as he unfurled the Contract Scroll from their wedding years ago. As the Parchment began to Burn, it revealed an astonishing sight: two of Aelia's Xu Ying overlapping under the moonlight, a testament to the marriage contract signed twenty years ago at the Elven Royal Court.
Luna suddenly let out a sharp Loud Cry, and the light emitted by the Emerald Pendant sliced the burning scroll in half.
The left half displayed the true wedding vows, while the right half was covered in a treacherous agreement written in venom.
Aelia's icy Ailya's White Nails dug deep into her palm as she watched her erased Memory Fragment rise from the Ashes—it was unmistakably Leonard disguising an Outsider Woman with his own Magical Fluctuation!
"You dare to tamper with the starry Contract!” Aelia's Frost Power surged uncontrollably, causing the entire castle to tremble violently.
Suddenly, Luna projected the soul of the First Patriarch, whose spirit form held a Silver Birch Bow aimed directly at Leonard’s Mei Xin and its Black Magic Mark.
Leonard tore open his shirt to reveal his heart, where writhed a Thorned Totem that shared origins with both the Spirit Altar and the Forbidden Spell: "From the moment I took over as head of the family, my heart has been cursed to tell lies." He reached out to touch the ice crystals forming on Luna’s swaddling but was burned through his palm by the Star Sand spewed from her mouth. "Every time I say 'love' to you, it feels like carving out my own flesh."
Aelia’s cold laughter froze the dripping Blood Pearl. She pulled aside Luna’s swaddling to reveal her back—where a complete Elven Royal Covenant totem had emerged without notice.
As moonlight illuminated the broken sword symbol at the center of the totem, a mournful cry echoed from deep within the castle—the lament of the First Guardian Dragon.
"Your lies are more foul than three hundred years of rotting corpses in the Black Marsh." Aelia reshaped the shattered wedding ring with ice crystals but crushed it into powder at that very moment.
Luna suddenly reached for the drifting crystal dust, which reformed in her palm into miniature elven warships, their bows marked with flags indicating the destination of their westward journey.
Leonard's pupil suddenly turned the same vibrant green as the Outsider Woman. He raised his hand to summon the cracked marriage box.
As the toxic mist from the Spirit Forbidden Land seeped out of the box, Luna's light shone directly on it—inside lay twelve blood-stained Elven Children, also known as Milk Teeth.
A horn sounded from the West Side of the castle, announcing the departure of the Dragon Scale Boat. Aelia cast one last glance at the ice sculpture on the balcony of her wedding chamber.
There, frozen in time, was her figure from every morning over the past twenty years as she arranged her husband's cloak. At that moment, all the ice sculptures suddenly turned in unison, bowing their heads toward the westward fleet.
Luna began to heat up under the moonlight, and Aelia lifted her baby to meet Leonard's gaze.
As both father and daughter’s pupils reflected the Xu Ying of the Spirit Altar, a thunderous roar erupted from the remains of the Guardian Dragon in the castle's underground—the sound wave shattered the family head's obsidian wedding bed into powder.
Moonlight pierced through the colored glazed window, casting a kaleidoscopic halo on the oak floor of the Library of Hidden Books.
Aelia's fingertip brushed against a book spine, suddenly pausing before an ancient tome—the cover featured a laurel branch entwined with a starry totem, perfectly mirroring the disaster star trail she had seen on the Astrology Platform last night.
"Madam, this scroll drains blood!" Qin Si exclaimed, stepping back in alarm.
Aelia unfurled the yellowed parchment; dark red patterns suddenly glowed with an eerie blue light, and Elven script writhed across the paper like vines.
She recognized this font with thorned tails; it was similar to what had been mixed into Leonard's love letter when he proposed twenty years ago.
The sound of silver spurs tapping against stone steps echoed from the staircase as Aelia tucked the scroll into her wide sleeves.
Leonard entered the Library of Hidden Books draped in a dark patterned cloak, and a blend of dragon's blood incense and jasmine powder filled the air—the very scent favored by Leonard's concubine, who adored southern spices.
"I heard you sent someone to investigate the Elven Forest?" Lord said, his fingertip gliding over the surface of a crystal ball. Instantly, black mist surged within it. "Those pointed ears have known for over a hundred years that..."
"Over a hundred years ago, we made a Blood Pact with our ancestors!" Aelia suddenly turned, her Emerald Earrings slicing through the air beside her neck. "And you, on our wedding bed, etched that pact onto another woman's chest!"
Luna kicked her little feet, wrapped in Silver Stockings, in Qin Si's arms.
She saw the Magic Tome behind Mother beginning to fade, a sign of the Great Mage's memories awakening—those Elven Scripts were rewriting Aelia's Magic Circuit.
"Has Father forgotten?" Third Young Master Lucius's voice came from behind the Pillar, where he held the Elemental Compass pointing northeast. "Last month’s Messenger died violently, hiding a Golden Oak Leaf of the Elven race within his armor."
Suddenly, a circular magic array emerged on the floor. When her elder brother's Wheelchair rolled over its center, it produced a sound like clashing metal.
His broken right hand traced patterns in the air, and the Ancient Book Rack’s Elemental Contract Examination automatically flipped to page 414. On the yellowed illustration, blood was seeping from the Elven King's Crown.
"Life will return during the Lunar Phase Rotation." Second Brother spoke up suddenly, his Astrolabe projecting a phantom of the galaxy. "On the next night of Double Moons in the Same Sky, the barrier of the Elven Royal Court will..."
Luna suddenly let out a Yiya Sound, her Pink Palm glowing with a Red Glow.
No one noticed that deep within the clarity of her infant Pupil reflected a time-space rift on the Spirit Altar miles away—that was the demon passage she had sealed with her last magic before her previous life fell.
Aelia's fingers traced over the glowing Elven Rune on the ancient scroll as the Crystal Chandelier cast tiny Light Spots onto the Parchment.
She turned to look at Luna, who was playing with a Fire Lizard by the fireplace. When the three-year-old girl tilted her face up, there was a sharpness in her Amber Eyes that only an adult Mage possessed.
"Madam!" Qin Si rushed into the study, lifting her Skirt as red tea spilled from the Silver Tray onto the Elven map. "Third Young Master Lucius is at the Training Ground again with Father..."
Before she could finish her sentence, the Crystal Chandelier began to shake violently.
Luna suddenly reached out and grabbed Aelia's Pearl Necklace, her Baby Voice clearly uttering, "Earth Vein Tremor, thirty miles southeast."
As Leonard kicked open the Gilded Gate, Aelia was dropping Magic Potion into the Observation Crystal.
From the Purple Smoke emerged a twisted Space Rift, and countless Mama monsters surged from the Underground towards the Elven Forest. "Is this what you call a routine patrol?" she said, tossing aside a Handkerchief scented with powder, embroidered with the initials of Leonard's Concubine.
"Does Father really intend to wait until the Magic Tide swallows the Sacred Tree before opening the Ancestral Scroll?" The Eldest Son on the Wheelchair suddenly spoke up.
The Magic Tome resting on his knee fluttered without wind, and his incomplete Twin Legs cast a Serpent Pattern shadow on the carpet.
The Second Young Master wiped his Heart Shield, which had been pierced by his close friend, and sneered, "After all, some people's Teleportation Circle needs to be saved for their Tryst."
Luna suddenly reached out to press down on Brother San's waist, where a tattered talisman hung.
When Leonard's golden Lapel Pin glowed with Teleportation Magic, the Pure Magic erupting from the infant's palm caused the Space Vortex to freeze in an instant.
Aelia ripped off her Wedding Ring and hurled it at the crystal ball. The ring penetrated the Elven Crown within Xu Ying, scorching a Scorch Mark at Leonard's feet.
"Before Dawn Tomorrow," the Lady of the Fortress snapped as she broke her Pearl Necklace, scattering beads that bounced along the Judgment Array to form a Star Map. "If I can't see the Spirit Messenger's Moonlight Vessel, I'll let the whole city see where in this dimension lies the Castle Lord's Love Letter's Moonlight Forest!"
Suddenly, Third Young Master Lucius raised a talisman left by their Mother, and Ancient Elvish lit up the walls of the study.
Luna gazed at the three-dimensional map emerging in mid-air, her lips curling into a cold smile that was utterly unbefitting of an infant's face—clearly reminiscent of the expression of a Former Great Mage when breaking through an Ancient Barrier.
