"Tell me again on why I have to use this instead?" Mizu was looking at the sword he was holding instead of his regular katana that he used

"You aren't still prepared to what Trenti gave you" Amarico then fixed her bandana as she then swings a full punch combo as Mizu looked at her

"So were going back to Etris right?" Amarico then nodded as she waited for her bell to chime and form the circle to teleport to the palace of Etris

"It's gonna be your first ever mission? Aren't you excited for it?"

Mizu just shrugged "I don't know anything except the basic combat that you taught me so"

Amarico then laughed as the bell then chimed "Oh there it is, come on! Get in before I leave you here alone"

Mizu then stepped inside the circle as the two then waited to be teleported.

Almost immediately they were engulfed in a blinding light in a matter of seconds as they were now in-front of the gate of the palace

"Halt!"

A loud male voice shouted as spears were pointed at them "Who are you?"

Amarico raised her hand "A friend of Etris, I have an attendance with the queen"

The guards lowered their weapon as they nodded "You may come in, friend of Etrea" The gate was then opened by the guards

Amarico and Mizu walked inside the gate as they started to walk to the palace, passing by the beautiful flowers.

Mizu then saw the flowers that were growing at the garden, he saw various amounts of them but one stood the most "Hey... what's that flower over there?"

He pointed at a flower that was burning, it had a bright azure color to it but the strange thing is that it wasn't spreading to the other flowers

"Heard that the Queen's admirer, the Flame hero, gave it to her... ever since, she kept it dear"

Mizu was marveled at the flower as Amarico started to walk once again "Alright enough with the field trip, let's go"

He then started to follow Amarico once again as they finally arrive at the palace door. A guard then opened the door for them as the 2 walked in, they see the queen there, sitting on the throne. She was surrounded by seals of some sorts but the seals were almost worn down, not even stating the word they have back then.

"Ah, welcome Mizu and Amarico. You made it just in time"

Amarico and Mizu bowed as The Queen made them raise their heads once again

"As you may know, I already briefed the mission a day ago so I'm just gonna make this short"

The queen then stood up "Retrieve the female celtor in question then figure out why she stopped sending messages"

The queen finally was in-front of them

"As a bonus, I shall go with you both"

The guards in the palace were in shock as her advisor was shocked as well "Majesty! This is quite outrageous!"

The queen ordered the advisor to stand down as she started to remove her robe as it showed her armor that was beneath it

"I was once a prophet, a hero, then now a queen. But I shall relive that moment once again with you both. Now, let us go, we have a mission on the way" She then started to walk outside.

Amarico was keeping in the excitement she had inside her as she then walked outside to the queen. Mizu was about to follow soon as he was suddenly stopped by the Advisor

"Wait there Lone Warrior... Please, take this"

He was then given some kind of revolver "This was used by the late Flame Hero... it's quite worn down but if you may, please, restore it in its former glory..."

Mizu then nodded "I promise, I will!"

The advisor then smiled as he then bowed to Mizu

"We wish you a safe travel.." Mizu then walked outside the palace as the circle was already there

"Come on you slow butt! We're gonna get going to the lower parts of Erisia!" Mizu then got in as he swore that he saw the queen smile before they were finally engulfed by the light once again.

The trio looked around as there were countless ships awaiting near the small beach that they were on "There's so many boats..." Amarico then looked around "Strange... people mostly gather here to find some squads to venture into the upper parts... but.." She was quite confused "This is really strange" The queen, Ada, tried to sense something with her enhanced hearing but nothing was emitted from the silence "Nothing... We'll worry about that later, for now we need to get to the Duchess's Manor, we can't waste time" Ada then started to walk inside as the 2 followed suit, there they saw what seems to be like Megaloudaunt carcasses and bodies around the area "Jesus fucking christ!"

The sharko's would probably just stomp on her because she's a blind fuck" then suddenly the female voice that was crying suddenly spoke up "Please! I beg of you! Stop doing this!"

They don't have that good weapons. F

She was cowering in fear.Ada then comforted the girl "Do not fret, we are here to help... What is your name?"Ada said lightly as the girl started to have tears leak from her blindfold as she started bawling her eyes out "Shh... It's alright, you're safe now"Ada kept on patting the girl to make her calm down.After a few more minutes, the girl stopped crying as she was wiping herself down with a handkerchief Ada gave her.She then bowed "My name is Kate... I-I'm a future blindseer" Amarico was then surprised"You have been in the depths before?"

Mizu then grabbed his pouch as he gave 3 flowers to her. He got it from the loot bag a while ago "Please, place it on his hands.." Kate nodded as she then grabs it slowly. She then grabbed her brother's hands as she opens his hand and placed the flowers there. She then closed it slowly and then moved his hands near his chest. Kate then stood up as she then looked at her brother's dead body, she hoped he moved on peacefully... Mizu looked around as he saw a sword that was near the body. He grabbed it as he then stabs it near the ground the body was to symbolize that he died with honor and pride "I'm sure he did pass on in a haven we would like to see and share..." Mizu said lightly as he pats her head. Suddenly Kate hugged him as she then tightened her grip. Mizu pats her head as she just kept hugging

As long as you don't give in to it's roar you are fine" Ada then unsheathes her dagger as they were now outside it "And for it's pellets, you can just go behind something" Ada then looks at the 3 as Amarico cracks her knuckles as she then made Kate go behind her "Stay behind me alright?" Amarico looked at the blindfolded girl as she nodded "Mizu, you're gonna help me out on killing it" Ada then slowly entered the cave as Mizu followed suit. As soon as they saw light, they saw the ominous figure, it was 15 ft tall with a hunched back but it was still menacing. There was a odor that almost made Mizu puke but Ada on the other hand was slowly crouching behind it. Mizu waited for any signal from Ada as she was fully behind it. Ada then signaled to Mizu to grab its attention. Mizu nodded as he ran up fr

    "So, what next?" Amarico asked as she puts another tree branch inside the makeshift campfire that Ada had made "Haven't I said this before? We can makeup a plan after we get Kate her oath... the bandits made their camp near the castle so it gives us an advantage" Ada said as she was helping out Kate wrap Mizu's shoulders with some bandages that Ada had in her bag "Wasn't the castle's bridge destroyed? How are we gonna make it across?" Amarico asked as she sat down and puts both of her hands near it "Ahh... that feels so warm..." The acrid smell of charred wood fills the air, as the group was enjoying the small quiet time that they had receive after killing a large enemy. "No... actually... The leader of Summer Isle had made a bridge back then using her attunement back when I still wasn't a Queen.." Ada smiled as she finished wrapping Mizu's shoulders. "Heh... She used most of her Ether when making it and she complained for a whole week..." Ada then blushed as she shook her head.

    "You know this gives up some chilly vibes... literally" Amarico was shivering as she was rubbing herself as she was already called when they were halfway to the bridge."Tell me... about.. it" Kate said as she was getting cold but then Mizu gave his jacket to Kate as the former smiled and patted her head."There we go, feeling better?" Mizu looked at her as she nodded they then continued walking."There it is, the gate is wide open because its permanently opened for visitors in lower erisia when they are doing their adventures... I do hope we see people here because we could probably gain some information from them" Ada then went inside as the surrounding was peaceful.The grass was flowing with the wind, drips of water from a nearby waterfall was ringing around the place as the birds around them were now audible rather than back then when they were at the cave and finally the whiff of smell from the surrounding flowers were pleasant."Has someone been taking care of this place...?"

Sero pointed at some writings on the wall, it mostly looked like random words but that is for the average person, Kate however sees more than what meets the eyes."Can I start reading it...?" Kate looked at the group"Of course, go on ahead" Mizu then guided her to the writings as he then puts her hand on the worbs, Kate felt the immense aura from it"O-Okay, I think I can handle this now" Kate then started to slowly move her hands around the writings as she slowly felt that the aura was dissipating and slowly going through her blindfold and then her eyes.Kate used her other hand to tighten her blindfold as she was almost finished with trying to claim her oath."I vow to not let the horrors of the world pierce my tightly fastened blindfold. Everything is simply as we choose to perceive it" Kate chanted slowly as then an eye appeared infront of her blindfold. She looked at the group as she had her mouth agape."I-I can see y

He also saw his companions still knocked out and is in the same situation as he was in.The dimly lit room slowly covered Mizu's sight, he tried to use at least one of his spells to light up the room but he couldn't, it felt like his mana and reservoir was empty.Suddenly the lights of the room lit up as Mizu squinted his eyes to adjust to the brightness. Mizu heard a door open, which in turn he looked at where it came from. It was at his left side, he turned his head to that side in which a male that was the same height as Amarico [5'7] came in, wearing a lab coat and glasses, they were pushing a cart with equipment, surgical equipment to be precise."Ah. It seems like you are awake" The male looked at Mizu as they had a blank face and souless eyes. If Mizu could just read someone's thoughts with just their face, he would've saved so many of those

    "What possess you to enter my kingdom in this uninvited matter, my dear madaam" Raven asked as she drank her cup of tea.The group and her were now in a room, it was royalty like... Much like she was enjoying the time of her life because of this."Raven... I came to discuss to you to stop this nonsense on what you are doing right now, don't you see how many lives you've already taken?""Oh my, what do you mean by lives I've already taken? I don't see anyone resisting whatsoever"Just then, a celtor went inside a room with a tray of snacks along with cups and a teapot."They all wanted this, look, they also enjoy it as well" Raven then clapped her hands as the celtor then went towards them and placed the tray down. They were wearing a blindfold and their movement looked more controlled rather than free will."The hell do you mean enjoying?! THEY'RE SUFFERING BECAUSE OF YOU"Faye then immediately stood up and was about to punch Raven but then Amarico stopped her."Easy, Faye! We can't

She then grabbed the dead Gargoyle's body and threw it to the other Gargoyles."Where did she even get this much?! And I thought it was Celtors?!" Amarico then punched one's beak as it flail around, hitting it's comrades and the pillars around them."Either in the Aratel Sea or possibly made Artificially!" Ada then threw a shadow dagger on the monster's eyes as it screamed in pain. She then used Faye's body as a boost for her jump as she then striked it down."But enough talking for now we literally need to get to that elevator over there so we can at least progress down this dungeon!" Faye then one handed her hammer, she then used her other hand to use her shield"Follow my lead! Don't stop!" Faye then shouted, she then starts to rush through the Gargoyles, some going away to not get hit by her."You heard her, go!" Ada then followed behind, then

    Mizu slowly started walking across the bridge, taking his time as he didn't want to fall off the bridge and drop into the acid lake that was beneath it."This slingshot was actually useful, thanks for that Amarico!" Faye then puts the slingshot back inside her backpack, looking at the gate that they will soon enter."You guys ready for this?" Amarico then helped Mizu get over to them as they then turned to the gate."I should give a brief rundown to her Manor... There's 3 levels overall and the last one is where she resides" Faye then drew on the ground, luckily there was a small patch of dirt "The first floor had a ton of... Celtors, I assume?" Faye then started to draw each floor correspondingly. Each of them having a drawing or two."I can't even call them real Celtors... Or people... They followed the Duchess around like they were robots and always said 'We shall return Celtor back to it's former glory' gives robotic vibes don't you think?" Faye then went to the second floor"Nex

    Mizu then held his sword tightly as he looked at the creatures that was rising from the ground. Their head was covered by what seems to be corals and their face looked hideous. They were wearing armor like clothing but it was already torn off, hinting that they were adventurers once."Mizu! Becareful, they can use spells even though their mudskippers now!" Ada then started to cast a spell. A shadow tendril was formed beside her as it started to move to Mizu's location."Hang on Mizu! Let my tendril grab you and carry you here!" But then the tendril got burnt down by a fireball. The group looked at the direction where the fireball came from, they saw a Mudskipper that was wearing an armor that was mostly for mages."Mizu!" Amarico finally arrived at the other side of the bridge, she wanted to go back but she'll risk of breaking the bridge too."Ada do you have any more spells?!" Faye then started to go over the bridge but Amarico stopped her from going further"I'm trying to but I can

    "Now that you got the hang of it, why not test it on the real deal itself" Faye then pointed at another Golem, it was turned around so it wouldn't see the group."How did that thing get here almost immediately!?" Amarico was already terrified. Her arm hasn't healed yet."Ah quit whining already, let me and this guy over here take care of it" Faye started walking towards it"Let's go!" Faye immediately equipped her greathammer, with Mizu equipping his new sword that Faye gave him."Alright then!" Faye and Mizu immediately went in front of it.Faye then started to distract it, only playing defensively while Mizu immediately went to it's arms, slicing through it "Woah!" Mizu immediately backed off, the Golem stumbling backwards as it just recieved a fatal damage."Nice job! Now let this Mercenary finish it off, alright?" Faye immediately threw her weapon in front of the Golem, she then boosts herself towards it.She pulls her left arm behind her, grinning."STRONG LEFT!" Faye then lands

I suppose you really do need my help..." The woman then grabbed her bag, she then pulled something out of it"I went in her laboratory and it seems she's planning big... I almost got caught by her as well" She then gave papers to Ada."What... What is this, Faye..." Ada looked thoroughly at the papers that she was given."I think she's planning on a raid" Faye was then given another bowl by Mizu, she said thank you before continuing to devour itThe papers were filled with blueprints, ways on how to make golems and how to mobilize manifactured celtors."I also didn't see any of her assistants, I think that's how she got the manifactured celtors...

Mizu tried to slice it's legs with his sword but it merely made a clang instead of a woosh."Back up back up!" Ada shouted as the Golem was about to throw a punch towards them.They dodged it in a nick of time as Amarico then started to pull back her left arm, it slowly glowed white."Step aside!" Amarico immediately rushed towards the Golem as she then threw a strong punch towards the Golem, knocking it back making it hit a tree as well."I think I can do that trick a few more times, it looks like it's working well rather than me punching it normally" Amarico then spinned her arm, that probably moved a joint but who knows."Does it even have a weakness?" Mizu looked at his sword. It was almost bent and it had alot of scratches on it"It's weakness is basically weak towards any blunt weaponry... Like Amarico's Strong L

    The trio are climbing up through erisia, facing some scenery that could be even called worthy of a memory but they cant enjoy the scenery for now, as they still have to get to the manor but they soon faced a problem"Why is it doing here?!" Amarico whispered loudly as they were behind a Sharko.It seems like it wandered too far away from Vipers Jaw and it arrived here at Upper erisia."Well We need to defeat it then... They can stay in the same place for hours before moving to another spot" Ada then grabs her dagger as she then slowly creeped up behind it."Remember the same thing we did on one of them back then? We'll do it again" Amarico told Mizu as she slowly creeped up to it aswell Mizu slowly went to it's front to attract it's attention, but then when he was getting closer he saw something else..."Hey... Ada... What's that thing..." Mizu pointed in front of him. There stood a huge beast that was made up of rocks with eyes that was glowing white along with its chest there seems
