2023-08-31 20:46:12It's still dark; the sun hasn't been seen yet. The cold wind blew from the Forbidden Forest, making the Begonia City residents even more sleepy. Everyone tightened the quilt to survive the freezing air.
But in the heart of the Whispering Forest, a military group paced back and forth among the rustling shadows of pine trees. The sky was clear and cloudless, beginning to be dark blue, a sign that dawn was approaching.
Swish!
The three medium-sized spirit ships are all made of Padauk Wood, a unique wood with wood grain that looks beautifully glowing in the still dark sky. Those spirit ships shuttled over the border of the two empires. Qingchang and Zolia.
Now and then, spotlights from a height are emitted through the lush pine leaves. There is an important thing that concerns those people. The 100 military men, pacing on the outskirts of the forest, looked busy looking for something.
The dashing man was no more than 30 years old; it seemed he was the military group's commander.
He was wearing a black and white color uniform. Expert hands sewed the uniform with intricate details. On his shoulder is a symbol of rank, which explains that he is a Captain.
His body is tall. A hard look with plane shoulders aligned, wearing the uniform with a sword at the waist. His name is Captain Bao. He smelled the remaining burning dust on the grassy field - the dust of The Flame.
"It's not what I thought. There is no trace of magic or energy. It's not Phoenix dust." Captain Bao stopped the inspection.
"You'd better go. There is not the slightest trace left." He said while inviting the military group to move the search site more profoundly into the forest.
But the voice stopped him. Her voice was cold, no less than the coldness of the morning.
"Captain Bao. Have you reached the conclusion, where did the fugitive Phoenix go?"
The voice was familiar to Captain Bao's ears. "That magical woman again!" he complained lazily. He looked away. And he guessed right.
The female has as pale as the moon in winter. Her eyes were silver, similar to the eyes of a snowy mountain fox. Captain Bao is always uncomfortable every time he meets that woman.
Captain Bao frowned and greeted lazily. "Eve Whitehouse, a level two Pyromancer."
The Captain bowed low and saluted. His movements look lazy, different from a person complimenting. The two often meet on dangerous missions. And Eve has always been in controlling manner; this is what caused Captain Bao to dislike him.
Eve has always looked down on Captain Bao, who is not a sorcerer. Even though knight training was carried out with a wizard at the official imperial academy, he's a knight.
"What's wrong with Miss Eve, coming in the morning, right?" the Captain exchanged pleasantries.
Eve girl revealed a surprised mimic. She approached Captain Bao. "Come on, Captain. Isn't our coming the same?" It's just that you represent the military side while I describe the military sorcerer. We are both investigators."
The girl spoke domineeringly, not giving Captain Bao a chance to make a sound.
"Have you got any clues? Please tell me!" said Eve, Back domineering.
Captain Bao instantly lost his temper. This girl broke the boundary. She behaved as if it were Captain Bao's superior. The man already wanted to vomit at Eve's authoritarian style.
Captain Bao just shrugged. The answer is short. "I haven't found any clues yet. What about you? Did the group of pyromancers and others across the wall die from the phoenix fire?" he asked back.
Eve looked less than happy. "You don't want to share information while you're looking for information from me?" Eve's voice rose. She even added.
"All I heard was that crazy phoenix escaped from the magic prison while you were serving as a night watchman!" What I wonder is, why didn't anyone show up and help the elemental controllers?"
In this case, I became suspicious!" Eve's eyes sharply looked at Captain Bao.
Captain Bao flushed. "So you're accusing me of conspiring with the red Phoenix Clan?" Hoho... Be careful in speaking. I can accuse you back on the grounds of slander!"
Silence. Eve is indeed always looking for trouble with him. Captain Bao was furious.
Eve stringed a word, and Back threatened. "If only the Emperor knew that Phoenix ran away, he would have been furious. The plan to unite his power between Roc and with Phoenix failed already!" Eve looked at Captain Bao with a triumphant smile.
"Especially if the Emperor knows. The Phoenix disappeared and the Qingchang military did not move because of it. Well, maybe Kasiar will go berserk!" Eve's eyes flashed slyly.
"As far as I know, that Phoenix is being held in the magic prison of Spellhold. All the keys have been installed with spells and magic spells. How could it possibly escape? Do you think this is not sabotage?"
Eve fishing. She wanted to see Captain Bao's reaction.
Captain Bao was furious. His face flushed. I want it to feel like he slapped the magic woman's mouth. This is a hidden accusation.
While holding back anger, after taking a deep breath, Captain Bao spoke coldly. "On this matter, everything will be checked in accordance with military procedures. You don't have the right to throw just any accusations! Once again I reiterate. I can attack you back for this accusation."
Captain Bao left the heated talk. He deliberately bumped into Eve. Luckily Eve was sprightly. He shifted quickly and avoided the accidental collision.
Captain Bao glanced. His words were as cold as ice. "I'm sorry, I have to go. I still have a lot of business to do," he disappeared into the military crowd. We talked for a while, and the group moved to search in the forest's depths. The field was considered clear of traces of the Phoenix.
Eve, she stood alone. He stared at Captain Bao's departure with hatred.
"I'm really not with the Qingchang people. They are just pretending to be subservient to our Hersen Empire! Just look at it later, I will open that Captain Bao's do in the future!"
++++++
Wake up! Kiran was taken aback. Kora Wang shouted in his ear.
His dream was interrupted already. Kiran dreamed he saw a blinding reddish light burning his body. It hurts, but afterward, he becomes a substantial figure. It was his wish. But that sweet dream is now shattered.
"Kiran! It was 20:00. You slept more than half a day." Hurry up and clean your body. I don't know what activities you did the night before; what must be now is that you look messy!" Kora Wang rebuked him once again.
Kiran shuffled to his feet, looking for the remnants of water and then cleaning his body. Inexplicably he felt a lot of mucus-like dirt on his skin. Smelly and disgusting.
"What happened to me?" thought Kiran.
But his uneasiness was only a moment. He recalled that briefly, the night was Mr. Niraj Singh's performance
"In Brimm The Liquidator, the Storyteller will perform. I have to hurry up if I don't want to miss the legend."
The fairy tale brought by Mr. Niraj Singh he has heard dozens of times. But inexplicably. Kiran and his friends always came in secret to listen to the repetition of the story. "It's the story of heroism that keeps me inspired. I want to be a Sage like Sage Alaric. Later Kiran walks around with a smile.
Brimm The Liquidator looms in sight.
Kiran hurriedly docked at the window on the West side, joined by three other children, Ming, Kai, and Avena. "Has it started?" asked Kiran.
The three comrades glanced for a while. Avena handed Kiran the item that the game made yesterday. "Take it. I'm tired of playing with your necklace. Now we focus on hearing the Storyteller's history!" said Ave, pointing to the wine house.
From inside, the voice began to chant, melodious like the blowing of a flute.
Sage Alaric escaped a snow-white sword. He waved his sword, slamming at the black wizard. The black wizard is terrified; he intends to run for fear of the Sage's sword!"
All took a look. "Isn't the story different? This wasn't the story back then!"
The sound from inside the wine house grew louder. "The fierce battle ended thunderously,
when Sage Alaric and his Phoenix became winners. The black man died, and the country lived Sentosa forever!"
The whole room of Brim the Liquidator became excited. All the listeners in the drinking house choked up.
Niraj Singh, the Storyteller, deliberately changed the storyline of history! It should be the Warlock who won the battle, Emperor Hersen.
"The storyteller is not afraid of death!"
"He really dared to change his fairy tale."
Terrified visitors rushed to leave Brim the Liquidator. No one wants to get involved and be labeled a rebel by the authorities. But Niraj Singh kept singing. Now the louder and louder the voice. Many people began to gather, hearing his fictional story. All applauded.
And sure enough!
Soon searchlights were shot from space. This made the wine house brightly lit.
Things got shaken. But Niraj Singh doesn't seem to care. His voice grew louder. He sang the lyrics that changed his history.
"Shut up!"
The pale-haired woman stood at the door of Brimm the Liquidator. His cold face shone on Niraj Singh, who seemed unconcerned, still reflecting on the upside-down contents.
Eve Whitehouse waved goodbye. The red mist came out of his hand, spreading with deadly heat. Niraj Singh did not flinch in the slightest. He is not afraid of fire. Eve Whitehouse glared, wanting it to feel like it burned the storyteller man to the ground.
Unfortunately, the laws in the territory of the Hersen Empire and its colonies were stringent. It is not allowed to kill just anyone, especially in public places.
There have been too many complaints from the Hersen colony, which complained about the arbitrary actions of Hersen's officers. This made the Emperor worry that there would be another rebellion.
Eve Whitehouse began to lose her temper. But The movement was faster. Her figure
punched Niraj Singh in the stomach.
BOOM!
The [Storyteller hit the wall, drooping and losing consciousness. The figure who punched him was Captain Bao.
From behind the night in the right-hand side window, Kiran and his friends stared unblinkingly at all the action. He was amazed by Eve Whitehouse's magic and also surprised by the combat action of the handsome man in military uniform.
Eve Whitehouse squashed sharply into the west corner window. The eight pairs of eyes ducked at the look in Eve's eyes. The female looked like a queen of fire.
"He's a Pyromancer!" Kiran hissed. If we don't leave now, we might end up in jail. The most apparent accusation is the act of spying; Kiran rushed afterward; he still wants to witness those heroic acts. But his fear of prison, made him have to leave.

The number three is a lucky number for Kiran.In the Qingchang Empire, At this time, the people believe in mystical things. So whatever it is, it is always associated with bad luck or not.

The housekeeper's ghost escorted Kiran and Chen to their room.The winding hallway, full of handmade pottery decorations, seems to decorate the sandalwood display table. A fragrant fragrance wafted. The rigid walls, full of ornaments of legendary creatures, expertly carved, make Kiran feel as if he is walking in a passage of time, penetrating the space of the past when the world was still filled with legendary creatures.Elvira, the housekeeper's female ghost, escorts Kiran to a separate room from Chen."Can't we have a room?" Kiran was taken aback."It's important for you to share a room because our backgrounds are from the same city. This will make it easier for us to adjust in this Institute." Kiran quibbled, half-pleading.Elvira replied with a sweet smile. But it looks scary. Her voice seemed to come from a different world. A distant world in the valley of darkness."Darling.

Finale
All evidence of the fight from the previous night was sealed on the chilly morning in the spruce forest when the wind rustled, bringing the snow flowers that dropped to the ground. As far as the eye can see, the landscape is now all white and gray.Roneko walks with Kiran as they stroll around the campsite. He kept asking the Kyuubi Roneko to tell him what had happened the previous night."Please tell me again, Roneko. Are you certain that the fire-phoenix figure is a representation of the powerful magic deed I performed?" Kiran did not give up.Roneko confirmed, a desperate look on his face and a smirk that showed the master never believed a word he said. Haven't you heard yourself, My Lord Kiran? Zephyr himself attests to your surprising golden Phoenix magic. So why ask the same question over and over again?"Kiran chuckled, still wearing a simple, disbelieving expression, "The issue is, I only rode once. With the Fire Peacock, even then. Not gold, but red is the color of the flames
Tragedy on the Horizon.
Minutes before the silver-eyed eagle left, after she received orders from the Nymph Leader, Roneko the Kyuubi had been watching the events between the silver-eyed and the Nymphs.While everyone was fixated on the battle on the horizon, the one between the Frost Giant - Ymir and the Golden Phoenix Silhouette, the Nymph Leader was trying to find an opportunity. He secretly summoned the silver-eyed eagle to inform the ruler of the Ice Palace of their dire situation.Who would have thought? From the Ternola Forest's side, Roneko watched all the happenings with great vigilance.When she saw the gray-colored light flashing from the Nymph's group, branching rapidly towards the horizon, it was at that moment that her figure wearing a red-colored dress also flashed, chasing after the Silver-Eyed Eagle.On the other hand, on the Nymph's side, such a crucial moment was not missed by the Nymph Leader.With eyes blazing, mouth wide open, she shouted frantically, "There's something red attacking th
The Story of the Miracle in the Fir Forest.
It was cold at night, and the wind was strong. There was a deep freeze in the Wonderland Realm, and there was a strange feeling in the air near the Spruce Forest.At the very moment that everyone in the Ternola Forest thought they were safe behind the magic mirror shield, a terrified cry rang out."Look! "The magic mirror is about to break!"Right away, things went from orderly to chaos.All the creatures that were protected by the magic of 100 Twilight Turtles became scared."Someone needs to do something! We'll all die if we don't!""Oh, is there still any magic power that can defeat that damned thing?"When Ymir's fist hit something, it made a loud noise, and the magic mirror's crackling sound scared everyone.In fear, they let out a roar, and then there was a sudden flight towards the crystal mirror, which was getting more and more cracked. It might even break soon."Who is it?""Where did that golden-colored figure come from?""The light of its body is dazzling!"All the people w
Ymir
Strings, strings, stringsThe harp strings tinkled softly as the Nymph Leader played strange notes on the strings. The other Nymphs looked sad and murmured as if they were singing with very low pitch and words. It gave everyone shivers."Damned magic!""They're summoning supernatural beings!"Fear crept up on the people who lived in the Ternola Forest.Right then, the sky on the horizon turned dark in an instant. There were black clouds in the sky that stopped the moonlight and starlight from falling to the ground.The air got colder all of a sudden. At the edge of the cypress forest, the still water looked like it was freezing as a cold wind filled the air.In the distance, you could hear footsteps. The sound was so loud that it made the ground shake, snowflakes fall, and water splashes fall right away.Press, press, press!From the north, everything watched with wide eyes."Ymir!" "Ice Giant!"Ymir was a mythical giant from Norse times. He was made of fire and ice and was very scary
Golden Flame Magic and Black Cloud Terror.
The golden-red flame that shot out of Kiran's body at that precise instant was not your typical flame, not one that could be ignited by a five-hundred-year-old Fire Peacock.Other species hardly ever saw this weird, perpetual glow. The color of the fire is gold.The first person to recognize this was Roneko, the fire chakra master Kyuubi. When the strangely hot light of immortality erupted from Kiran's flesh, she was the closest to him."Professor. This is fire that never goes out. Not a fire that a contract creature like a fire peacock might release." Roneko said, looking shocked.The monster that arose from Kiran's spirit was not a fire peacock, in Kyuubi's opinion.Roneko dared to confirm that, despite being a different species of bird, "it's not a peacock at all." What an odd bird. Unfortunately, Roneko reflected, that figure appears to be bound by a curtain of magic, which makes it look exceedingly enigmatic.Roneko heard Kiran's voice offering directions while he was still unsur
Chaos
Diolos the Pegasus felt drowsy all of a sudden that night as the cold seeped in through frost petals falling from the sky.He gave it some curious thinking. Diolos thought to himself, "I don't usually get sleepy so early in the night." Whining, he asked Kiran, who appeared to be experiencing sleepiness as well. The night sky served as his roof while he worked hard to spread out a sleeping mat beneath a fir tree.The whimpering voice of Diolos disturbed Kiran, and he chastised the Pegasus. "Slept on, Diolos. There's still a long way to go. This Wonderland Realm ends at the White Witch's Ice Palace. You'll require more stamina tomorrow." He gave his advise, and Kiran fell asleep almost immediately.His bed was the dried straw mat that was spun into a mat. Simultaneously, the down blanket—the most opulent piece of gear available at the time—attempted to shield every Ternola Forest species from the chilly night air. Although snowflakes started to fall from the sky that night, nobody's slu
Army of Mutant Nymphs.
This large area appeared appropriate for erecting a makeshift tent the night before the weird incident, when Kiran and his two groups came, along with Zephyr and the war party from the Ternola Forest.Zephyr firmly exclaimed, "We'll rest until morning, then continue our journey to the Northern Palace!""Finally resting too..." Zephyr, the war leader, gave the order, much to the relief of the members of the special warband.The military men of all the ethnicities quickly and deftly erected tents. On the other hand, others made meals, gave each combatant medicine, and provided water.There were ten animals each race, and each race had dedicated people who planned the accommodations.Food like that eaten by creatures outside the Realm is no longer of the utmost importance in the Ternola Forest of this Wonderland Realm, where miracles occur beyond logic and conventional sense.Every race in this Realm has a number of shamans with magical abilities that can turn botanical components into p
Mystery of the Silver Eye
Tet - tet - tet...The five hundred Silent Owl troops whistled a war song, producing a sound like a trumpet. It was intentional to purposely amplify the sound of these hundreds of Silent Owls flapping their wings, creating an echoing sound that made anyone who heard it shiver, much like thousands of dragonflies flying.The wind-controlling foxes appeared to clear the path by marching orderly through Ternola Forest, behind the troops as they walked on the snow-packed road, all while making their clomping footsteps audible. The Breeze Foxes occasionally whistled, and when the wind picked up speed, it blew the snowdrifts aside, revealing the route north and allowing the men to advance without difficulty.Thousands of creatures living in the Ternola Forest lined both sides of the road as they saw the magical beast army's procession, which resembled a human army march.A thousand troops of tiny beings known as Spark Sprites, who could conjure electric sparks, strode silently but with a for
Decision Day.
Kiran became a little uneasy as Zephyr explained the plot to overthrow the White Witch, the King of the Ice Palace, and organize an uprising."Do you men in this Ternola Forest have an army to attack the King? If so, are you soldiers with training?" Kiran asked a question that made sense. If there were no skills at all, wouldn't every resident of this Ternola Forest perish needlessly in a conflict, especially against a well-trained Royal army?Zephyr grinned and replied, "My dear friend Kiran, you need not worry," after hearing her remarks, which appeared apprehensive. We have multiple troops in this woodland, and they are all magically skilled. When you finally get to see them tomorrow, you'll be shocked.""Tomorrow?" Kiran inquired. "You will start the attack tomorrow?" With incredulity, he asked. Kiran's worry was visible on his face. These residents of Ternola Forest were careless and inconsiderate of their strength.Zephyr answered with the naiveté of a ten-year-old: "That's corr
