Athena: System is unable to detect the source of the sudden suddenly mana wave.
Kasper: (pulled out a small clean hide cloth and wiped off the blood from his nose) did you feel anything just now? (Asked)
Khaos: Anything like what? (Confused)
Kasper: Nevermind, let's go quickly the rest of the group are far ahead of us. (Pulled Khaos by the hand) They feel normal. Was I the only one just now who felt the powerful mana wave? (Thought)
...
Bael: My queen? Are you alright?
Lyrixa: Where is Azrael? (Asked coldly with pale face)
Bael: Lord Azrael sent this letter. He instructed me to give you after his departure. (Handed the seal letter to her with two hands)
Lyrixa: (ripped off the seal and read the content) He left for an urgent matter? (Frowned abit. She was literally low on mana)
...
It happened millons of years ago after the great war that broke between humans realm and the demon realm. Then the war that broke out once again 7 decade and a half (75 years) ago in the demon realm, between the other 6 demon kingdoms that tried to seize power from the great kingdom of Purgatory. This war led to the death of Lyrixa's father, (Lucian) who gained the title from his ancestors as the great Lucifer.
The war, which barely left the demon realm intact, with many lands destroyed, lives and properties wiped out but few clinged to life to survive the disaster. Lyrixa had managed to survive but was internally damaged. Her mana container was seriously damaged with lot of holes. She wasn't able to cultivate and still manage to keep the mana energy left. The mana sipped out from her broke mana container like one pouring liquid into a colander.
Then she met Azrael, he identified her as the princess of Purgatory and saved her. Teaching her all she needed to be a fit queen. There he stood by her side till she became queen of Purgatory and helped her in ruling.
He managed to create a medicine that could temporarily seal her broken mana container for 5 decades. The medicine she had taken recently wasn't up to a decade yet, and now her full condensed mana was flowing out at a fast rate. It wouldn't take long till she's more less like a useless imp.
Lyrixa: (took a deep breath then composed herself) It's fine.
Freya: Are you sure you're okay my queen? (Asked out in concern while staring at her very pale face)
Lyrixa: I'm fine. Let's go everyone (commanded gently and walked out throwing majestic and deliberate steps)
Crowd: It's the queen... (Cheers and hails came from the people of the kingdom)
Lyrixa: (stood at a top storey platform of palace where her voice could be heard)
"People of Purgatory… today marks a new chapter in our history. A Rare Scale Dragon a creature of destruction and chaos descended upon our land. It could have reduced our homes to ash, torn our walls to rubble, and feasted on our fear. But it did not. Because we stood strong. Led by none other than Lady Lyraen the Crimson Witch of the Royal Council, our forces rose to the challenge. With courage and brilliance, she and her unit defeated the beast and ensured the safety of our city."
The crowd erupts in cheers for Lyraen. Queen Lyrixa raises a hand to settle them.
Lyrixa: To Lady Lyraen and her brave company Leon of the Gravity, Howzer of the Flame, the ice Sentinel , Plagg and Khaos from Bael platoon and the rest, you shall each receive the Medal of Demon Flame for exceptional valor. In addition, a bounty of 100 gold will be granted to you for your service. (Then she turns, eyes briefly glancing toward Kasper in the crowd.). There are others whose roles, though unseen by many, were vital in securing our victory. To those unsung heroes, your deeds have not gone unnoticed. For one in particular... (She subtly gestures to Kasper, without naming him aloud) ...a personal reward awaits a private estate, equipped for research and rest, gifted by the crown itself.
Klaus: A private estate? Who could that be?
Freya: (smirks) This human sure is interesting, for the queen to give him so much. She really puts all hopes on him.
