Aelia watched as the gathered Star Sand trickled down, glistening like liquid gold, following the path of the Infant Handprint that climbed up her embroidered sleeve adorned with Laurel Branches.
Suddenly, the drooping Wisteria flowers erupted with a Strong Light, casting flickering shadows across Qin Si's hesitant face.
"The transition of Contract Authority requires the awakening of the Bloodline of the First Generation Fortress Master," Aelia said, using the Sword of the Stars to stir the boiling Wisteria Juice. The Ice Blue sword energy froze the surging liquid. "Luna has yet to hold the Awakening Ritual; how could..."
From the direction of the West Tower came the sound of a Wheelchair rolling over Star Sand, the silver handrails clashing against the Lapis Lazuli Floor and sparking tiny flecks of light.
Aelia turned sharply, her gaze landing on her Eldest Son, whose pale face was bathed in the glow of the Star Essence Pillar. The black Magic Patterns that had coiled around his Spine for Twenty Years had faded down to his ankles.
"Mother, look." The Magic Parchment unfurled by her brother revealed a Dispel Array drawn in Wisteria Juice by Luna.
The Dark Red Curse twisted into a mass at the center of the Seven-pointed Star, mirroring the residual magic from Leonard's Healing Scroll he had brought back last night.
Aelia's pupils constricted, and her Wrist Heritage Bracelet suddenly grew hot.
Years ago, Leonard had said this was a secret medicine obtained from Sanctuary. Now it seemed clear that the Healing Magic injected into her Eldest Son's Spine was indeed a curse binding his Bloodline.
"My Sister reshaped my Magic Circuit with Star Sand," came Second Brother's voice from within the Chained Branch Copper Mirror, its surface reflecting Leonard's Last Night as he was pushed into an Abyss by his dear friend.
When Luna, wrapped in silken moonlight, let out a Loud Cry, the Soul Devouring Curse disguised as a Crystal Orchid in the abyss shattered spontaneously. "Her cry during the Hundred Day Feast shattered the soul-binding chains that held me captive."
The Wisteria Juice suddenly soared into the air, forming Lucius' Water Barrier, revealing Third Young Master Lucius being tugged at by Luna on the Training Ground.
At that time, three-year-old Child clutched Star Sugar and pointed at a sword manual's seventh form with a Baby Voice. "Brother San, this Star Trail is drawn wrong." His casual correction of the sword technique unexpectedly summoned the Residual Shadow of the First Generation Fortress Master. At this moment, those Lucius' Water Barriers and Leonard's Last Night resonated with the Prophecy Poem on the back of the Contract Document.
Qin Si suddenly knelt and presented a Memory Crystal. The boiling Wisteria Juice within transformed into countless scenes: Luna catching a model of Leonard's Sword during her first birthday Zhua Zhou; drawing an ancient Magic Rune Array with Star Sand at three; commanding Feng Ming Zhong to sound seven times after a century of silence at five...
"This morning, Young Miss used Chen Lu to brew potions when Star Sand in the West Corridor automatically condensed into Honor Magic Castle Crest," Qin Si trembled as he unfolded Si Pa, revealing fragments of Star Sand that were reassembling. "Madam, look! This is clearly a sign recognized by Magic Castle."
Aelia staggered and leaned against the Lustrous Cradle, noticing that the exorcism bells hanging from its corners suddenly turned collectively towards the direction of the Star Palace.
It was then that she realized that what was stuffed inside Luna's Swaddling was not a plush toy at all, but a miniature version of the Sword of the Stars—the very artifact that had hung in Leonard's study last night, now radiating moonlight in the arms of the sleeping infant.
The Nursery Dome suddenly descended with Star Sand Snow, each grain of Sandy Gravel reflecting different timelines of Leonard's Last Night.
Aelia saw in a parallel universe where Eldest Son had not received Luna's help, his bones turned to ash; Second Young Master became nourishment for An Abyss; and Third Young Master Lucius was backfired by the Error sword manual... Meanwhile, in the current reality, the Star Sand Snow fell upon the Children, with Eldest Son's Wheelchair emanating healing Yin Mang, Second Young Master’s Soul Fire blazing in the mirror, and Third Young Master Lucius’s Jian Feng flowing with the Starlight Power of the First Generation Fortress Master.
"Mother." The brothers' calls overlapped within the Star Sand Snow, their floating magical energies synchronizing perfectly with Luna's Breathing Frequency. "Please believe Sister."
Aelia's Sword of the Stars suddenly slipped from her grasp and hovered in mid-air, its Sword Tip pointing towards the remnants of the Prophecy Poem on the back of the Contract Document.
The words "Double Moons in the Same Sky" from Jin Wen Road suddenly projected onto Luna Mei Xin, coalescing into half of a First Generation Fortress Master Seal on her forehead.
At that moment, a voice from the direction of Star Palace called out Qing Yue Luna, and eighteen Soul Lanterns that had been silent for a century lit up one after another, weaving a new Guardian Barrier above the Magic Castle.
Qin Si suddenly pointed out the window in astonishment.
Moonlight pierced through the remnants of the Star Sand Storm, forming two silver crescents on Luna's eyelashes, which combined with her forehead mark to create a complete symbol of Double Moons in the Same Sky.
Aelia finally trembled as she reached out to touch the Contract Document. The flowing Jin Wen Road immediately wrapped around her Fingertip, branding the Star Map of the First Generation Fortress Master’s Trial Grounds into her Pupil.
The Feng Ling at the Eaves Corner of Star Palace stirred without wind, awakening the girl sleeping in her Wisteria flower cocoon.
Luna rubbed her eyes and sat up, gathering moonlight into a miniature Star Sand storm on her Palm.
She looked at the shadow rushing down the corridor and chuckled softly, a fragment of Prophecy Poem tucked in her hair glowing with a Red Glow.
Moonlight coated Luna’s Hair Tips with a layer of silver frost as her Palm’s Star Sand storm calmed with each approaching footstep.
The shadow in the corridor paused before the Wisteria Arbor, as Third Young Master Lucius's cloak, embroidered with a Dark Pattern, was lifted by the night breeze, revealing a Broken Sword pendant hanging at his waist—exactly the sword that Luna had repaired for him three years ago using Star Sugar.
"They say you are going to enter the Trial Grounds." The young man knelt on one knee, the Star Sand dangling from his Jian Sui clinking softly against the Lapis Lazuli Floor.
He reached out to brush away the Star Sand Snow from Luna's eyelashes, and the residual sword energy on his fingertips caused the Prophecy Poem Fragment in her hair to rustle.
Luna hugged the shrunken Sword of the Stars to her chest, its hilt inlaid with moonstone reflecting the Star Trail swirling in her eyes. "Brother Lucius, want to guess which level of sword formation is hidden in the forbidden grounds?"
Suddenly, the Wisteria Arbor stirred without wind, and the falling petals coalesced into a translucent sword shadow.
Lucius gazed at Xu Ying, who resonated with his Leonard's Sword, his Adam's apple bobbing twice. "Last month when you taught me how to break the seventh level of the Frost Snow Formation, did you use...?"
"Shh—" Luna suddenly slapped the Star Sand Snow onto his Jian Sui, causing an Ice Blue Pattern to instantly spread across the boy's Leonard's Sword. "Wait until Brother San can condense a complete First Generation Residual Shadow; then I'll tell you how to break the tenth level of the Starfall Formation."
Eighteen Soul Lanterns suddenly lit up on the West Side of the courtyard, and Qin Si hurriedly approached with Liujin in hand. "Young Miss, the Elder Council has gathered at the Star Palace." Her wrist, adorned with a newly replaced Moonstone Bracelet, jingled as she moved; it was a talisman given to her by Chen Luna when she restructured their Family Crest using Star Sand.
Luna leaped down from the flower rack onto steps formed of Star Sand, and as she landed, the Sword of the Stars in her arms unexpectedly extended three inches.
Jian Feng swept across the Lapis Lazuli Floor, sending sparks flying and dragging behind her a Track that perfectly matched that of the First Generation Fortress Master Seal.
Lucius stared at that still-burning golden Track and suddenly tightened his grip on Leonard's Sword as he chased after her. "Wait for me!"
The Dome of the Star Palace was draped with curtains of falling Star Sand, reenacting scenes from the Prophecy Poem. The Grand Elder stood before the Residual Shadow of the First Generation Fortress Master, leaning on his Dragonbone Staff.
As Luna’s Sword of the Stars emitted a Qing Yue sword cry, the Contract Document suspended above the altar suddenly unfolded over three zhang, revealing Soul Imprints of past Lords emerging along its gilded path.
"A seven-year-old child wishes to bear a thousand-pound burden." The Grand Elder's Dragonbone Staff struck heavily against the Star Sand Ground, causing all eighteen Soul Fires to sway in unison. "Does this little one know that for three hundred years, there has never been an instance of an unawakened Glorious Demon Fortress?"
Luna stood on tiptoe and inserted the Sword of the Stars into the altar's Groove, its moonstone hilt suddenly connecting with the Celestial Star Map.
As she turned, a fragment of the Prophecy Poem automatically flew into the Star Sand curtain, completing the missing thirteenth chapter in front of the astonished crowd.
"Three Hundred Years Ago, Double Moons in the Same Sky. On that night, the First Generation Fortress Master, at the age of seven, entered the forbidden land." Luna's fingertip touched the reassembling Prophecy Poem, and Liujin Iris suddenly transformed into flowing Star Sand, projecting the childhood image of the First Generation Fortress Master between the Soul Lanterns. "Elders, perhaps you would like to see if this Leonard's Last Night differs from historical records?"
The Second Elder held the Glorious Chronicles, which suddenly flipped its pages on its own. The blurred illustrations on the yellowed pages perfectly matched the Star Sand Projection.
As Luna used Star Sand to condense the details of the First Generation Fortress Master's breakthrough of the third-level sword formation, even the oldest Fourth Elder couldn't help but lean closer to examine the floating Magic Circle Diagram.
When Leonard's furious shout, accompanied by dark Magical Fluctuation, tore through the air, Luna was just discussing the Lunar Phase patterns of the ninth-level illusion formation.
The Sword of the Stars sensed malice and automatically protected its master. The surging moonlight from the Sword Body froze the approaching black mist into ice crystals that fell softly at the feet of the Grand Elder.
"Absurd!" The Current Fortress Lord's cloak was stained with a night Rose Scent that did not belong to Magic Castle, and bloodstains from an unfinished Teleportation Circle still lingered on his Gilded Wristguard.
He swung his sword to sever the Star Sand curtain still displaying the Prophecy Poem, Jian Feng barely stopping half an inch from Luna Mei Xin. "A girl whose Bloodline has yet to awaken dares to..."
"Father, was it not last night at Emerald Manor that you used the seventh Teleportation Circle?" Luna suddenly tilted her head and asked. The Sword of the Stars shrank to toy size in her hand. "The Star Trail there deviated by three points; your left shoulder's Dark Injury must have flared up by now."
Leonard's pupil contracted sharply, and his sword energy uncontrollably severed a strand of Luna's silver hair.
In that moment, as her hair fell to the ground, it transformed into Star Sand chains that tightly bound his Leonard's Sword to the altar's Evil Dragon Fangs relief.
At that moment, Aelia's Sword of the Stars burst through a window, piercing a melting Soul Imprint on a Contract Document.
"Leon, fifteen years ago when you used Black Magic to alter Eldest Son's Healing Scroll," Aelia said as Liujin’s sleeve dropped Star Sand that suddenly coalesced into a Magic Reflection. In Leonard's Last Night, Young Lord was injecting a Dark Red Curse into an infant's Spine. "Did you ever consider that Magic Castle’s Inheritance Sacred Artifact would record every moment of spellcasting?"
The footsteps of three brothers approached from three directions.
Eldest Brother Wheelchair rolled over the Ground covered in Star Sand with sounds enveloped in Purification Spell. Second Brother’s bronze mirror projected truths from Twenty Years Ago between the Soul Lanterns while Third Young Master Lucius’s flowing Starlight Power resonated with Luna’s breath.
Leonard staggered back a step, the night Rose Petals that fell from his sleeves swept out of the hall by the suddenly stirred Star Sand Snow, coalescing under the moonlight into a Blood Arrow pointing towards the Magic Castle's West Side Secret Passage.
The Star Sand Snow in the Star Palace suddenly froze in mid-air, and the chain wrapped around Leonard's sword hilt let out a piercing sound of breaking.
His elder brother, Wheelchair, rolled over the ground covered in ice crystals and stopped at the left side of the altar. The bones of his Spine, once corroded by Black Magic, now shimmered with a moonlit glow. "Did Father ever think that when he personally buried the Soul Nail in my marrow, I would live to expose this lie?"
Suddenly, Second Brother reached through the surface of the copper mirror, his soul's Fingertip hooking onto a strand of dark purple magical residue. "In the Soul Binding Array beneath Emerald Manor, there’s still a nightingale nourished by Father with a Blood Pact." He flipped his Wrist, and the residue transformed into a Crystal Orchid shape, intertwining with the night Rose Scent that stained Leonard's cloak into a Poison Vine appearance.
Third Young Master Lucius pressed against the altar's Relief, resisting the evil dragon's reverse scale as Starlight Power seeped through the stone cracks into the Underground. "Last month’s black Magical Fluctuation spilling from the West Side Secret Passage—do I need to summon the First Generation Fortress Master’s purification spell?" The Star Sand on Jian Sui suddenly erupted with Strong Light, illuminating Leonard's Xuanbing Bracers and revealing the remnants of a Teleportation Array Pattern.
Aelia's Sword of the Stars suddenly let out a mournful cry, its Sword Body reflecting scenes from Twenty Years Ago—when Young Lord disguised the Soul Devouring Curse as a wedding vow kiss on her Mei Xin.
The Lustrous Cradle suddenly flipped into the air, revealing an evil curse inscribed on its bottom with Star Sand. The patterns that imprisoned Eldest Bloodline were now resonating with Leonard's Soul Imprint.
"The thirteenth decree of the Forbidden Grounds of the Demon Fortress," Luna suddenly tiptoed to touch the floating Contract Document, and the missing thirteenth chapter was abruptly completed. "No Lord shall harbor a Soul Devourer." Her Fingertip formed a Crystal Orchid from Star Sand that pierced through Leonard's Xuanbing Bracers, pulling out a howling Shadow Serpent. "Did Father hear the foundation of Magic Castle crying when he used this to prolong life for that one at Emerald Manor last night?"
The Grand Elder's Dragonbone Staff suddenly slammed heavily against the Ground, and an array formed by eighteen Soul Fires trapped Leonard within a Star Sand Vine Cage.
The Fourth Elder trembled as he held up an automatically flipping Glorious Chronicles; on its yellowed pages was Leonard's Last Night with Emerging Current Fortress Lord and Night Rose spirit: "For three hundred years, no Lord has violated a Blood Pact..."
"But the Magic Castle recognizes that this ritual must be completed!" The Second Elder suddenly waved his staff to tear apart the Star Sand curtain. The eyes of the First Generation Fortress Master's apparition shot out golden light. "Immediately open the Trial Grounds; if this young child can obtain three Inheritance Sacred Artifacts..." Before he could finish speaking, Luna’s Sword of the Stars broke free from its restraints, and its Sword Tip etched out a complete Double Moons in the Same Sky formation on the altar.
Aelia staggered to support herself against a Gilded Column as her Wrist Heritage Bracelet suddenly showed fine cracks emerging.
Thirty Years Ago when she entered the forbidden grounds to obtain Sword of the Stars, those whirlpools of Star Sand that had devoured several Heirs still surged in nightmares to this day.
At this moment, Seven-Year-Old Daughter’s Hair Tips were lifted by the Trial Grounds' fierce wind, revealing glimpses of Magic Patterns drawn during her infancy on her Skirt.
"Mother, look at this." Luna suddenly pulled open her collar embroidered with Star Trail; at her Heart emerged First Generation Mark resonating with the altar Relief. "Last month when I revised Brother San’s sword manual, Trial Grounds’ Starfall Stone quietly branded this." As she turned around, a silver moon suddenly surged from her hair, transforming the Grand Elder’s Dragonbone Staff into an apparition resembling First Generation Fortress Master’s Scepter.
Leonard suddenly burst into wild laughter, shattering half of the Vine Cage. The Shadow Serpent coiled around his palm, forming a blood blade. "What if you uncover all the secrets? Without the Awakening Ritual, the Shattered Moon Formation in this forbidden place will doom this girl..."
His curse was swallowed by a sudden whirlwind of Star Sand.
Eighteen Soul Lanterns collectively turned towards the West Side Secret Passage, as the foundation of the long-silent Magic Castle let out a roar.
The Lapis Lazuli Floor beneath Luna suddenly became transparent, revealing the boiling Star Sand Sea below—three hundred Unicorn Skeletons of past Heirs were forming some ancient Formation Diagram at the seabed.
"I see now." Luna suddenly tossed the Prophecy Poem Fragment into the air, as Liujin Iris transformed into Star Sand, seeping into the Earth Rift. "The First Generation Fortress Master inscribed the true awakening array in..."
A deafening Phoenix Song interrupted her words.
The Star Map of the Star Palace Dome suddenly materialized, with the Twenty-Eight Constellations cascading down around Luna.
The Grand Elder's Dragonbone Staff flew uncontrollably towards the stone door of the Trial Grounds, transforming into a key shape amidst the gasps of the crowd.
As the first ray of moonlight pierced through the Star Sand Sea and illuminated Luna's Mei Xin, the Evil Dragon Relief on the stone door of the forbidden place suddenly blinked its eyes.
