In the refracted Rainbow Light of the Crystal Chandelier, Luna ascended in a spiral along the Silver Candelabra.
Aelia held her daughter's hand, trembling slightly, as she watched the bubbles glimmering with Pearl Luster merge into the Dome Mural. The faded scales of the Guardian Dragon suddenly shimmered with a metallic gleam.
"Look at the Starlight Stone on the Dragon Claw!" a voice exclaimed from the Guest Seats.
The originally mottled gem flickered in sync with Luna's Breathing Frequency. As the infant hiccupped and golden light spots spilled forth, a fragrant aroma of Yue Gui enveloped the banquet hall—an auspicious sign that only appeared during the glorious peak of the Glorious Demon Fortress.
Leonard crushed his Gilded Goblet, and the Blue Blood seeping from the Contract Mark soaked through his bandages.
He distinctly saw those light spots penetrate his body, causing the Deadly Nightshade within Leonard's Cloak to wither into ash in an instant.
A dull sound of collapsing barriers came from the direction of Hot Spring Villa, mingling with the hoarse cries of Leonard's Concubine that pierced through his eardrum.
"Father, aren't you going to hold your sister?" Brother San suddenly approached with a reassembled Crystal Wind Chime, its bells chiming a Requiem that made Leonard's temples throb.
The young man lowered his gaze to hide his brilliance. "This tune is indeed suitable for guiding lost souls."
The temperature in the banquet hall plummeted as Aelia's Family Crest Necklace erupted with red light.
Before anyone could react, Luna suddenly grasped her mother's trembling fingers, wrapping her Chain Pendant around Lucius.
The crimson Wine Liquid boiled into a swirling vortex of crimson gold, reflecting the horrifying sight of Xi Yue Guo and the Secret Envoy corroded into white bones by toxic mist on Leonard's Last Night.
"Enough!" Leonard's roar was drowned out by the Dome and Longyin.
To everyone's astonishment, the Guardian Dragon mural reached out with Xu Ying's Dragon Claw, gently cradling Luna in her swaddling cloth.
The Dragon Scale Birthmark absorbed the last trace of Earth Vein Magic Flow, forming a brilliant Hexagram at the nape of the infant’s neck.
The sound of a wheelchair rolling over rose stones echoed from the corner.
Eldest Brother clutched the faded Magic Rune Tome, his fingertips, resembling withered branches, brushed over the gold-foiled title of "Star Trail Spell Essentials."
Twenty years ago, he had suffered a backlash while casting High-Level Spellcraft. Now, the Stellar Trajectory flowing within the mural perfectly aligned with the incomplete Ninth Chapter in the book.
"Young Master, be careful!" Qin Si's warning had barely left her lips when Luna's small boots accidentally knocked open the wheelchair's brake valve.
As Eldest Brother slid down the slope toward the Astrolabe, his awareness flickered. The Magic Circuit, previously deemed necrotic by the physician, suddenly surged with a warm current.
He trembled as he touched the surface of the instrument, and to his astonishment, the etched Astrological Symbols began to automatically arrange themselves into a Healing Spell.
Second Brother leaned in the shadow of the Malachite Column, watching as the Crystal Chandelier cast his sister's shadow into a giant dragon form.
Suddenly, a wine glass exploded in his palm, amber liquid dripping through his fingers, reflecting that rainy night three years ago—when a dear friend had lured him into a trap filled with Devouring Spiders with a forged Magic Crystal Mine Contract.
"Luna's Full Moon Gift is truly full of surprises," Lucius's voice came from the Carved Porch. The Young Master held a secret letter covered in Dragon Scale Lacquer, while the Xuanbing Sword Sheath at his waist resonated with tremors. "I've just received news that this year's top three in the magical provincial examination all bear the surname Leonard."
As cheers erupted in Shan Na, frost suddenly enveloped all the silverware in the banquet hall.
Leonard stared at his gradually transparent fingertip; the Family Totem on Leonard's Cloak was being stripped away inch by inch by some unseen force.
Beneath the Marble Floor, disturbed by Earth Vein Magic Flow, an ancestral seal on the Dragonbone Staff let out a mournful cry.
"Mother... look..." Luna suddenly grasped Aelia's Pearl Earrings tightly, her chubby little hand reaching out toward the void.
The magical power absorbed by the Dragon Scale Birthmark materialized into Golden Silk Threads, connecting Eldest Brother's wheelchair, Second Brother's shattered wine glass fragments, and Brother San's Crystal Wind Chime into a Star Map.
As the first rays of morning light pierced through the Stained Glass, the Dragon Scale Pattern on the Outer Wall of the Magic Castle had spread to the Banquet Hall Dome.
Brother San bent down to pick up the fallen fragments of the mural, the ancient Enamel Color regaining its luster in his palm.
The young man watched as his sister licked her fingers, causing Magic Ripple to spill forth. Suddenly, he tied Feng Ling to the door ring of the long-abandoned Training Ground.
Morning light filtered through the Stained Glass, casting a stark contrast of light and shadow across Lucius's face. He rubbed at a newly Emerging crack on the Xuanbing Sword Sheath.
As Luna's subtle sounds of sucking her fingers brushed past his ears, Jian Qiao at his waist suddenly Zhen Chan, channeling Han Qi into his Meridian—this Family Heirloom, recognized for a century, resisted his touch.
"Is Third Young Master Lucius not feeling well?" Qin Si paused as she passed by, holding a Silver Flask. The Gold Thread Embroidery on her maid outfit shimmered with strange ripples.
The new Dragon Scale Birthmark on her neck resonated with Luna's Hexagram at the back of her neck, startling the Frost Flower that had formed on the surface of the Xuanbing Sword Sheath, causing it to fall in flakes.
Lucius tightened his grip on the sword hilt, allowing Han Qi to carve blood marks into his palm.
He stared at the swaddled infant surrounded by people beneath the Crystal Chandelier; those Xing Hui entwined in Luna's Hair Tips bore an uncanny resemblance to the totem on their Father's Scepter.
The young man's Adam's apple rolled as he swallowed down a metallic sweetness, suddenly revealing a chilling smile to Qin Si as she turned to leave: "Be careful with the Moonlight Rose Essence in that Silver Flask; drinks tainted with Dragon Breath are hard to digest."
At this moment, beneath the Enamel Color Dome in the Southeast Corner of the banquet hall, Brother San was embedding shards of Crystal Wind Chime into the Bronze Gate Ring of the Training Ground.
As the last piece of Shattered Crystal fell into place, the mottled Griffin Relief on the door ring suddenly opened its crimson eyes.
The young man was knocked back three steps by an unexpected surge of magic, his back colliding with a Weapon Rack covered in Dust. Poisoned daggers and a Xuan Tie shield clattered at his feet.
"You once claimed that Elemental Perception surpassed that of a Mage and dared to neglect your physical training." His brother's Wheelchair rolled over the Lapis Lazuli Floor, and as he spread open a copy of Star Trail Spell Essentials, it automatically flipped to the burned page of Chapter Thirteen.
On the yellowed pages, Luna's earlier notes were being reassembled into the "Dragon Language Combat Techniques Outline."
Brother San stared blankly at the golden Iris floating in the air, his fingertip brushing over the old scar on his collarbone—a crescent mark left by an explosion during his Magical Talent test at the age of twelve.
In his memory, the terrified voice of the Astrologer echoed again: "This child has an excessive resonance with the fire element; if he draws a sword before the age of thirty, he will suffer backlash!"
"But Luna..." He turned to look toward the main banquet table, where Sister was gripping Second Brother's finger and dipping it into Lucius's drink.
As his fingertip, stained with wine, touched the faded Curse Mark of the Devouring Spider, a sudden indigo flame erupted from the inner side of Second Brother's wrist.
The twisted black veins that had plagued him for three years were being refined by Dragon Breath into flowing Star Sand.
Qin Si navigated through the boiling crowd, her skirt swaying as her urgent steps created ripples.
When she draped Aelia's fallen mink peacock blue shawl back over her shoulders, she suddenly noticed Lady Leonard's century-old jade bracelet covered in fine ice cracks. "The jewelry that Miss just held is undergoing transformation," she whispered, gesturing for Aelia to look at the goldfinch embroidered shoes with frayed edges—those dark purple threads were transforming into real feathers.
Aelia gathered her daughter's restless little feet, and the golden light leaking from the gap in the swaddling cloth coalesced into a micro star map on her palm.
As the malevolent star representing Hot Spring Villa suddenly dimmed, her family crest necklace around her neck finally ceased its humming. "This child is destined to reshape iron laws," Lady Leonard said, her fingertip brushing over Luna's heated hexagram at the back of her neck, suddenly tugged by a baby's grip on her pinky finger towards the southwest—where Lucius was wiping blood from the hilt of Xuan Bing Jian with a stained cloth.
The massive dragon Xu Ying in the banquet hall dome let out a low warning roar, and all silver cutlery turned simultaneously toward Lucius's direction.
Luna's unaware fist knocked over a honey jar, amber liquid winding across the snow satin tablecloth like a prophetic Iris: Xuan Bing weeps blood; Star Trail changes hands.
"Madam!" The butler stumbled in, holding a gold-foiled invitation. The hard paper with silver edges ignited in azure blue flames upon touching the magical flow of the banquet hall.
Emerging from the ashes, Xi Yue Guo's royal emblem caused Leonard to rise abruptly; before he could release the black mandala pollen hidden in his sleeve, it was enveloped by a rainbow bubble blown out by Luna and transformed into a crystal pendant.
As the Noon Bell shattered the last ripple of magical energy, Brother San suddenly tore open his shirt, embroidered with forbidden symbols.
On the young man's sturdy chest, the Twelve Rays and Sealing Chains were melting away in the Dragon Breath.
He picked up the rusted heavy sword from the corner of the Training Ground. The sword's hilt, embedded with a Dragon Crystal Stone, suddenly glowed brightly as if sensing something, burning away the twenty years of neglect into tempered Qing Yan.
"Mother..." Luna let out a small mewl like a kitten, and a golden-hued Lacrima rolled onto Aelia's silken garment.
Those teardrops seeped into the Cursed Fabric and transformed into moving Xing Zi, climbing up the graceful neckline of the Matriarch, eventually condensing into two miniature Hexagram earrings at her Earlobe.
Qin Si hurriedly offered a Magic Pacifier embedded with moonstone, only to find that the gem was melting into a river of Liquid Silver between Luna's lips.
In the satisfying smacking sounds of the infant, all the Magic Lanterns in the banquet hall extinguished simultaneously for three seconds.
When light returned, people were horrified to discover that the Images of past Lords on the Wall had all turned to face a different direction—only the Portrait of the First Generation Baroness floated above Luna's head, with the gem Ying Luo at the tip of her Scepter gently brushing against the baby's upturned nose.
Suddenly, Stardust fell from the Dome Mural, and Brother San skillfully maneuvered his Wheelchair to catch each falling piece of meteorite.
As the seventh fragment embedded itself into the Wheelchair Armrest's Groove, the dormant Magic Core that had been silent for twenty years emitted Qing Yue and Luna.
He trembled as he opened the Star Trail Spell Essentials; those curses modified by Luna suddenly detached from the Yellowed Pages and intertwined in midair to form a complete Star Trail Healing Circle.
"Watch out!" The Warning from Second Brother coincided with the shattering sound of a Crystal Chandelier.
Instinctively, he lunged toward the main banquet table, but at that moment, his knee—pierced three years ago by a Devouring Spider—surged with overwhelming magical energy.
Indigo Star Sand lifted him over scattered lamp stands, and his calloused Palm caught the Rose Crystal Lampshade that was about to crash down on Luna.
Aelia held her daughter tightly in her arms when the Pearl Earrings brushed against the baby Luna and suddenly cracked.
Just as everyone feared a disaster, the rolling pearls burst into Twin Lotuses mid-air, their icy crystals perfectly catching the Rainbow Bubble that Luna had exhaled.
The butler gasped as the Ice Lotus visibly grew into a Crystal Cradle, its Starlight Chains automatically wrapping around Leonard's ankles as he attempted to retreat.
As twilight descended upon the Magic Castle's Outer Wall, the Dragon Scale Pattern had spread to the East Side clock tower.
Brother San unleashed his first wave of sword energy, slicing through a century's worth of dust in the Training Ground. Among the shattered remnants of the barrier, the phantom of the First Generation Baroness nodded and smiled at him.
The young man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and plunged his heavy sword deep into a Geomancy fissure, allowing Dragon Breath to scorch his palm along the sword's hilt—this time, he would not let go of his chance to rewrite Destiny.
Aelia gently closed the Carved Wooden Door, shutting out the noise of the banquet beyond the pearl curtain.
Moonlight streamed through the Diamond Pane, casting a silver edge on Luna's swaddling.
The little baby grasped her mother's dangling Hair Tips and laughed, while a Hexagram on her nape shimmered with tiny Jin Mang, dyeing the Anshen Incense Pouch hanging by her bed in hues of flowing clouds.
"Our little star is truly remarkable today," Lady Fingertip said, brushing her fingers over the baby's golden hair that sparkled like Xing Hui. Suddenly, a new golden thread from where her jade bracelet had broken entwined around Luna's wrist, forming an exquisite bell bracelet.
Luna opened her glass-like eyes to reach for the jingling golden bell. In that moment, a Micro Star Map blossomed within her, reflecting Leonard's Concubine fleeing in panic from the ruins of Hot Spring Villa.
As Geng Lou sounded for the third time, Qin Si quietly entered, holding a Gilded Candelabra.
A moonstone hairpin fell from the maid's hair and melted into Liquid upon touching Luna's Swaddling, winding down to the baby's upturned Toes and forming a Guardian Spell. "Miss's magic is working on its own again," she chuckled softly as she brought warmed goat's milk to Luna's lips. The Milky White Liquid created rainbow ripples upon touching the golden bell bracelet on her Shan Na.
The morning mist had yet to dissipate, but the courtyard of the Magic Castle was already filled with anxious crowds.
Second Brother leaned against the Gilded Railing, repeatedly polishing the Crystal Cup, the scars of the Devouring Spider reflected in the glass fading to a light Azure.
As he glanced at the tightly shut vermilion door for the third time, Brother San suddenly tossed over a reforged heavy sword, its Dragon Crystal Stone hilt flickering in sync with Luna's Star Map from the previous night.
"The sound of breathing is too loud." The Wheelchair rolled over the jade stone tiles soaked by Luna, the pages of the Dragon Language Combat Techniques Outline spread out at his knees.
The Healing Spells modified by Luna flowed around him, transforming the Dark Injury that had lingered for Twenty Years into drifting Gold Dust.
When the Wheelchair paused beside Lucius, a Xing Zi leaped out from the Grimoire, swirling around the Xuanbing Sword Sheath, startling Third Young Master Lucius and causing the Poison Powder hidden in his sleeves to fall in a flurry.
The deafening sound of the Dragon Scale Drum echoed through the morning mist as Luna gnawed on Aelia's Luminous Necklace.
In the sudden burst of Strong Light from the Family Crest Gem, a glimpse of future star alignments flashed in the infant's Pupil—she released the saliva-coated gem and spat out a stream of Colorful Bubbles towards the direction of the Southwest Herald racing towards her.
"The Glorious Demon Fortress—Leonard Family—" The Herald's elongated tone startled a white dove from Eaves Corner, as the Gilded Scroll slowly unfurled in the morning light.
Luna suddenly tugged at Mother’s clothing, laughing heartily. The Magic Contract she had reformed with Star Sand was roaring deep within Geomancy, shaking Lord's hidden External Secret Letter to ashes in his sleeve.
"Jie Yuan is—" everyone's breath held on the Herald's quivering Lips.
Lucius brushed over the newly added cracks on the Xuanbing Sword Sheath but froze upon hearing his name.
The Gold Foil Text on the scroll twisted and reformed bizarrely, ultimately settling into an answer that caused an uproar among all present.
"Third Young Master Asa Leonard!"
Aelia's Lacrima struck Luna's upturned face, and the infant immediately stuck out her tongue to catch the salty sweetness.
As the Matriarch trembled and gazed at her most unruly son, Midnight, the Starlight Chains that Luna had wrapped around his heavy sword suddenly materialized, burning the Crescent Scar on Brother San's Collarbone into the image of a soaring phoenix.
"This is impossible!" Leonard crushed the Armrest Dragon Head Statue, but amidst the flying stone shards, he saw an even more horrifying reflection of Leonard's Last Night—his shadow on the Marble Column was being eroded by Star Sand, while Luna's breath revealed Xi Yue Guo, the Secret Envoy, writing the Impeachment Document among a pile of bones.
"Look at the Geomancy Projection!" Qin Si suddenly pointed towards the fountain in the courtyard.
Within the surging Lucius' Water Barrier, Asa Leonard swung his sword to cleave open the century-old sealed Trial Tower, where the phantom of the First Generation Baroness pinned the Dragonbone Medal onto his blood-stained garment.
The Crystal Cup in Second Brother's hand suddenly shattered, and as the splintered pieces touched the Indigo Star Sand, they coalesced into Jie Yuan Jin Guan, settling firmly among Brother San's disheveled red hair.
Luna excitedly kicked her legs, and the golden bells on her wrist chimed with the Triumphal March.
As the last note merged into Chen Feng, the long-abandoned Training Ground suddenly echoed with Luna—her elder brother's Wheelchair floated within the reformed Earth Vein Magic Flow, automatically completing the interrupted High-Level Spellcraft from Twenty Years Ago, wrapping his withered Twin Legs in a Light Cocoon woven from Star Trail.
"Tonight, fireworks will light up the entire fortress!" Aelia rose with her daughter in her arms, and as her Pearl Skirt swept by, a Moonlight Rose carrying Luna emerged from a Brick Gap.
She did not notice that Luna was frowning at a certain void—at the end of the infant's gaze, what should have been a celebration saw Lucius plunging Xuan Bing Jian into Herald's back, with blood drawn by the Sword Body forming a Reverse Star Trajectory formation on the Ground.
As Twilight enveloped everything, the Dragon Scale Pattern on Magic Castle's Outer Wall had climbed to the Castle Spire of the tower.
Luna leaned over the Cradle to nibble on a Crystal Wind Chime, her magic spilling forth and dyeing the evening glow in Liuli Color.
At the moment when the first firework soared to the Dome, a mournful cry erupted from the sealed Dragonbone Staff in the Cellar, shaking all Blood Wine at the celebration into a vaporous Blood Mist prophecy—unfortunately, amidst the revelers, only the small infant reached out with her tiny hand towards twisted Hong Yun, eager to rewrite Destiny.
The Amethyst Chandelier cast fragmented Light Spots onto the Dome as Luna lay in Qin Si's arms, her chubby fingers clutching at the edge of an Embroidered Golden Swaddling.
Suddenly, a Red Glow emanated from the Celestial Chart on Banquet Hall Dome; she squinted—this was a sign of energy overflow from the Magic Fortress Defense Array.
"Please, all of you, witness the magical potential of our new generation." Leonard's voice resonated with magic as the tip of his staff suddenly glowed with a bright light.
Luna felt the air around her become thick and sticky, a sign that the Magic Field was unfolding.
The sweet scent of milk from the swaddled infant was replaced by the aroma of sandalwood, and Aelia's Emerald Earrings swayed before her eyes.
Luna reached out her small hand, and as her fingertips brushed against the lady's flowing hair, a strand of Dark Purple Energy seeped out from between the locks.
This was a remnant of a curse!
In the Original, Aelia had been consumed by this slow Poison Curse that drained her vitality.
"Yi Ya!" Luna deliberately kicked her legs, causing the Calming Jade Buckle embedded in the swaddle to jingle.
The sound startled Leonard, who was setting up the formation. His staff tilted slightly, causing the Dome Star Map to twist into an eerie angle.
Seizing the opportunity, Luna infused a trace of Original Magic Power into Aelia's Moonstone Necklace, causing ripples to appear on the surface of the Moonstone.
As the Testing Crystal was brought to the center of the hall by the Knights, Luna noticed Brother San's fingers trembling in his sleeve.
In the Original, this brother had suffered from a Magic Surge due to a misstep in Shadow Magic, and now faint blue Black Veins were visible beneath his Robe.
"I'll go first." The eldest brother maneuvered his Wheelchair forward, his right hand resembling Withered Branches as it pressed against the crystal ball.
Luna's pupils constricted as she saw dense Mama's Magic Backlash cracks surrounding him, entangling around his heart like a Spider Web.
When the crystal ball emitted a faint red glow, she suddenly burst into a clear laugh, her small hand hidden in the swaddle quietly forming a gesture.
A gentle breeze suddenly swept through the banquet hall, and the surface of the crystal ball revealed a second Ice Blue Pattern.
The guests gasped in astonishment, as Aelia's White Nails nearly dug into her palm—this was a dual-element Elemental Resonance!
How could the Eldest Son, who was supposed to be disabled, still possess such a talent?
Leonard's expression shifted slightly, and he slammed his staff down. "Silence! The Second Son's test continues."
Luna watched her Second Brother walk toward the crystal ball, recalling that in the Original, his magical power should have already dissipated by now.
But at this moment, the young man was surrounded by faint Golden Light Spots, a result of the Holy Light Grass she had secretly mixed into his potion three days ago.
As the crystal ball erupted with dazzling light, urgent footsteps echoed from the outer hall.
"Victory Report! The top scorer of the provincial examination is..." The messenger's voice was drowned out by cheers.
Yet Luna's gaze was fixed on her father's robe hem—there were several Iris Petals clinging to it. This magical plant only grew in the wetlands west of the city, which was precisely where Leonard's Concubine had her Secret Manor.
Aelia suddenly tightened her grip on the swaddled infant, and Luna felt warm Seven-colored Dewdrops fall onto her forehead.
Through her misty tears, she saw the lady staring intently at the newly appeared ice Frost Flower pattern on the Eldest Son's Wheelchair Armrest, a sign of his awakening dual-element magic.
