The Crystal Chandelier crashed down between father and son, Leonard Bloodshot's Left Eye reflecting the veins bulging on Lucius's neck.
Third Young Master Lucius was pinned against the Oath Stone Tablet, dark red blood trickling down the Dragon Language title of the Bloodline Cage.
"Father... The surge of Magic Energy is from the West Tower..." Lucius struggled to reach for Leonard's Sword at his waist, but the Star Moon Stone embedded in the hilt suddenly shattered into dust—an intricate Defensive Magic Pattern crafted by Aelia on his sixteenth birthday.
Blood Moonlight streamed through the Dome Crack, spilling into Leonard's Right Eye Hole, as the Siglinde Family's Black Serpent Emblem suddenly revealed three snake tongues that coiled around Lucius's wrist, entwining with his Moonlight Mark.
In the Underground, amidst the Frost Wolf's Roar of ancient dragons, a baby's loud cry mingled with the sound. Luna's heart was emerging, marked by a burn resembling her Wedding Ring.
"How dare you touch my son!" Ailya's silver hair transformed into blades of snow as she unleashed Twelve Rays of Moonlight Chains from her shattered Wedding Ring.
Leonard was thrown down at the center of the Gilded Floor Tiles' Reversal Array, and suddenly, three Long Transformation faces of his son screamed from the surface of the Crystal Heart.
The Lady of the Fortress stepped barefoot across a carpet of Crystal Fragments, her Magic Robe hem soaked with Lucius's blood: "Back then, when you used the Wedding Ring to sever the Umbilical Cord, did you plant the Puppet Curse within Luna's Bloodline?" She formed an Ice Spike at her fingertip and pried open her husband's shirt, revealing three rotating Dark Red Talismans at his heart—shaped like Luna, left behind when their three sons were born.
From the direction of the Cellar came the sound of shattering porcelain as Qin Si burst through the door with six golden-eyed maids in tow.
The maid’s left hand held a Surveillance Bracelet that was smoking—an artifact quietly replaced by Aelia three days ago. "Lift Third Young Master Lucius to the Moonlight Grass Greenhouse," she commanded, tossing three barbed Moonlight Vines to bind the struggling Leonard. "Notify the Black Market Physician; if a word leaks out, feed him to the Food Shadow Beast of the West Tower."
Luna suddenly turned over in the Purification Array, remnants of her bloodied Umbilical Cord shooting out Gold Threads that pierced into Peacock Stone Tiles.
The entire castle shook violently as ancient dragons stirred, and from the direction of the library came the acrid smell of burning parchment.
Aelia hurried to her daughter’s side and discovered Dragon Scales, about the size of a baby’s palm, peeling away from her nape to reveal a glimmering Magic Circuit beneath.
"Madam!"
An East Wing Servant was trying to snatch up treasures in a frenzy. "In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure..." Qin Si’s words were interrupted by Aelia crushing a Communication Crystal in her hand.
The Lady of the Fortress pressed the still bleeding Moonlight Vine against the Oath Stone Tablet, and suddenly, three hundred sixty-five rotating Magic Patterns emerged from the entire hall's Ground.
"Tell those maggots," Aelia's voice mixed with the ancient dragon's awakening Roar echoed in every Zhuan Shi, "those who kneel in the Repentance Hall within an hour can keep their Contract Mark; those who flee..." She abruptly grabbed Leonard's fallen Crystal Right Eye and smashed it against the wall, as the Sigurd Family Crest devoured three fleeing phantoms in a Scream.
As the last Dragon Breath merged into the crack of the Moonlight Codex, Aelia paused for a moment while changing Lucius's bandages in the greenhouse.
The Dragon Scales at Third Young Master Lucius's Collarbone had already spread to his Ear, and amidst the Ashes drifting outside, the Residual Shadow of the Eldest Son's overturned Wheelchair could be faintly seen.
The Lady of the Fortress placed a Wedding Ring Fragment stained with Luna's Umbilical Cord Blood into her son's Palm, and suddenly, a sound like Fabric tearing came from the Cradle—sleeping Luna was unconsciously drawing the Ancient Demon Script to undo Long Transformation in mid-air.
Moonlight danced through the greenhouse Liu Li Ding, flickering on Luna's eyelashes, when suddenly a delicate Silver Bell Sound emerged from the Cradle.
Aelia's fingers, stained with Herbal Juice, paused as she saw the previously sleeping Young Girl waving a piece of torn cloth at her, her grape-like Eyes sparkling with an adult clarity.
"Mother wants Brother Lucius to be the Magic Pattern vessel?" Luna Yi Ya articulated a complete sentence, her left hand hidden in the swaddling drawing the Star Trail Pattern without Awareness.
The Crystal Baby Bottle hovering above her head suddenly exploded into three hundred pieces of Diamond Crystal, precisely fitting into a gap in the Greenhouse Protection Array.
Aelia wrapped the Dragon's Blood Vine around her Wrist, her cascading silver hair brushing against her daughter's drawn Defensive Magic Pattern: "Last night, seven layers of barriers collapsed in the West Tower; your Brother San's Long Transformation speed is three times faster than expected." She suddenly crushed a Communication Crystal, and the splintered shards transformed into a Firefly Swarm before touching Luna. "What do you think we should do about these eavesdropping Familiars?"
Baby Fat Luna puffed up and then relaxed. Grabbing her Mother’s moonstone-adorned headband, she suddenly spoke: "Brother San's reverse scale on his right Ear is his weakness." She Pretended to choke on her own saliva and took the opportunity to inscribe the Magic Script that could break Long Transformation onto Aelia’s Blue Sapphire Necklace. "But Brothers..."
"The Eldest Son used his cursed left hand this morning to weave you a Dreamcatcher." Aelia suddenly unveiled the swaddling, revealing the Star Moon Birthmark spreading across the baby's back.
As Luna shivered from Coldness, Aelia’s Fingertip glowed with Healing Art’s soft light: "Your Second Brother picked twelve Moonlight Lotuses for you this morning with his cursed right hand in the pouring rain."
Luna's small feet curled up suddenly stiffened.
She remembered that her three brothers should have long since fallen in the original timeline, yet at this moment, she sensed through her mother's trembling Healing Spell that there were sixteen Magical Fluctuations in the entire castle resonating with her Luna Resonance.
"So Luna is going to be the key for her brothers." Aelia lifted her daughter into the moonlight, and the Umbilical Cord Blood Crystal on the infant's chest suddenly projected a three-dimensional image of the entire Magic Castle.
As seventeen Silver Threads representing family members wrapped around Luna, the greenhouse ground emerged with the Ancient Emblem of the Dragon Contract array.
The baby suddenly let out a loud cry, but at the moment when the Sound Wave shattered the three spying magic arrays, it turned into giggles.
She tugged at her mother's flowing silver hair, rubbing her face against it while secretly weaving a curse-breaking spell into the strands: "Luna likes the garlands sent by her brothers."
Ripples suddenly appeared in Aelia's ice-blue pupils.
She watched her daughter draw smiley faces on the swaddling with drool—those were precisely the core Seal that suppressed the dragon clan's rebellion—and finally bent down to kiss the top of the baby's head: "Once we handle the matter of your stolen treasure in the name of the Moon Goddess, Mother will take Luna to see the new Star Compass made by your brothers."
As Qin Si retreated outside the archway holding Hemostatic Gauze, Aelia suddenly tore open Lucius's blood-soaked shirt.
The dragon scales on the boy's collarbone had sprouted thorn-shaped barbs, each scale pulsating with black Purple Poison Fog.
"Your sister used Umbilical Cord Blood to suppress seven backlashes from Long Transformation." Aelia flung the poisoned bandage into the air, which instantly ignited into Ashes forming a countdown Magic Pattern. "And you wasted your training time taming Shadow Hounds?"
Lucius tried to cover his neck where the scales were spreading but was pinned to the treatment table by his mother’s Moonlight Chains.
As Aelia's Healing Spell violently tore through the toxic mist in his chest, he let out a low growl like a cornered beast: "Those hounds can smell Father’s Mistress..."
"So you let Long Poison corrode your Magic Circuit?" Aelia suddenly pressed Luna's toy Yin Ling against her son's heart; instead of a gentle chime, it emitted a dragon's Roar. "Luna pretended to play this morning and set up three layers of Purification Array in the greenhouse—yet you didn't even notice that the Contract Mark on your left hand is fading!"
The treatment table suddenly emerged with a ghostly face drawn by Luna using Milk Stain, and that pattern was crazily absorbing the overflowing Long Poison.
Aelia watched as her son, Pupil, gradually fell apart, tearing the shimmering moonstone from her necklace and hurling it at the ground.
As the stone shattered into three hundred silver needles that pierced Lucius's acupoints, a sudden shockwave from the ancient dragon's eighth roll echoed outside.
"If Ming Wan Yue Shi still can't control Long Transformation..." Aelia ground the silver needles, now tainted with Poisoned Blood, into powder. The powder scattered into butterfly shapes, Luna's favorite, landing on the healing log. "Then you can dig out your reverse scale to give your sister as a Teething Stick!"
The Liuli Fragments that suddenly fell from the Greenhouse Dome coalesced into Bing Hua before reaching Luna, who eagerly grabbed two pieces and stuffed them into her mouth.
As Aelia rushed to save her daughter, she saw the glowing Dragon Breath emanating from Luna, radiating a unique Golden Red light—this was precisely the top-tier Purification Spell that she had forced Lucius to practice three hours ago, which had ended in failure.
The Moonlight Chains on the treatment table emitted a series of explosive sounds as Lucius's Dragon Scales gradually peeled away under the silver needles' Zhen Chan.
The boy's suppressed roar suddenly transformed into a fierce Roar, and a Dark Purple Wave erupted around him, sending all three hundred silver needles flying.
At the moment Aelia raised her sleeve to erect an ice wall, she noticed those butterflies made of Poisoned Blood frantically devouring the Purification Array created by her daughter.
"You will always measure my wounds with Luna as your yardstick!" Lucius snapped the two Moonlight Chains embedded in his ribs. The explosive Dragon Claw scraped dazzling sparks against the ice wall.
His decaying Fingertip suddenly glowed with a Dark Red Contract Pattern; it was the price he had paid last month for forcibly signing a Shadow Hound contract to track Father Leonard's Concubine. "Brother can weave Magic Tools with his backfiring left hand; Second Brother brought back Moonlight Lotus under a curse—what about me?"
Luna's Silver Bell Sound suddenly pierced through the ice wall.
The baby waved her saliva-soaked Star Moon Birthmark, spitting out the crushed Liuli Ice Flower at the edge of the treatment table.
Those Ice Shards automatically arranged themselves into a Micro Purification Array, perfectly blocking the most violent breach of Long Poison.
Aelia stepped closer over the shattered moonstone, her hair ornaments clinking with each Magic Shockwave. "Your brother's left hand drew thirty kinds of Protective Magic Rune on the night of his backlash; your Second Brother killed seven assassins using Curse Power while gathering flowers." She suddenly ripped open her son's blood-soaked garment, exposing his Heart curled around a Shadow Hound Totem. "And what did you do with your Contract Power? Bury three dead mice under Father Mistress's windowsill?"
At the archway, Qin Si suddenly knocked over the Silver Basin.
As the Hemostatic Gauze blossomed in the air like Bai Lian, the Dragon Wing behind Lucius suddenly unfurled.
Luna's Umbilical Cord Blood Crystal projected a three-dimensional image—revealing the boy curled up in the Stable last night, repeatedly etching a certain Ancient Contract Array into the Ground with Dragon Claw during Leonard's Last Night.
"Because this is the only thing I can accomplish on my own!" Lucius exclaimed as he shattered the illusion with a flap of his wings, his Long Transformation Pupil narrowing into two vertical lines.
He tore off the bandage from his left hand, revealing a Palm ravaged by shadow backlash. "Last month during the full moon, I clearly sensed an opportunity to break through to the fourth tier of the dragon clan, but Father suddenly sent me to the Extreme North Land to retrieve the Snow Spirit Pearl!"
Luna let out a sharp Loud Cry.
The Crystal Pacifier hanging from the infant's neck shot up and exploded in midair into a golden Light Web, enveloping the rampaging Dragon Wing.
Aelia then noticed that deep within her son's decayed Palm lay a Star Chart Simulation Diagram drawn in blood—exactly the prototype of Advanced Astrology she had taught Luna three months ago.
The shadows beneath the treatment table suddenly twisted and contorted.
The Shadow Hound and Unicorn Skeleton buried by Lucius seven days ago broke through the ground, dropping a blood-stained Pocket Watch at Aelia's feet.
As the Pocket Watch sprang open, Luna's lullaby from last month unexpectedly flowed out—a Requiem that perfectly calmed the rampaging dragon Bloodline.
"Do you know where I was when the West Tower collapsed last night?" Lucius suddenly slumped down in despair amidst the starlight. His Dragon Scales had shed, revealing skin covered in Ice Cracks from Magic Backlash. "I knelt outside Father's Study for six hours just to gain entry into the Family Secret Realm." He tore off the Jade Pendant hanging from his Neck, which turned out to be the first Nipple Scale Luna had shed during her full moon. "But Father said my Long Transformation level wasn't worthy of using the secret realm."
Aelia's Fingertip Healing Spell suddenly faltered.
She recognized the faint Jin Wen markings on her son's neck—those were Guardian Magic Patterns she had secretly drawn on Lucius's skin with Rice Paste during Luna's Hundred Day Feast.
At this moment, these childlike Luna's Doodles were fiercely resisting the most perilous Long Poison corrosion.
"In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure." The boy suddenly chuckled as he crushed the Jade Pendant, the splintered shards transforming into Glow Powder before they touched Luna. "When the Captain of the Guard accused me, do you know what Luna did?
The Crystal Baby Bottle she knocked over just happened to disrupt the anti-theft Formation Diagram of 'In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure.' What does that mean?
Is it a genius baby’s charity to a useless brother?"
A roar echoed from the Greenhouse Dome as the ancient dragon turned for the ninth time.
The Star Moon Birthmark on Luna's back erupted with golden light, casting a full view of the Magic Castle on the Ground through Xu Ying.
Aelia suddenly realized that among the seventeen Silver Threads of Family Bloodline, the one belonging to Lucius was slowly being eroded by some Black Substance—clearly connected to the castle's East Tower, which was Lord Leonard's private domain.
"It’s not charity." Aelia abruptly shoved her daughter into her son’s arms, the baby’s chubby little hand pressing precisely on Lucius's rotting Heart. "After Luna appeared, the concentration of Magic Particles in the Magic Castle tripled." She tore away her son’s Left Arm bandage, revealing an emerging Star Map beneath skin corroded by Long Poison. "What you should really care about is why you can withstand both the backlash of the Shadow Pact and the dragon bloodline."
In Lucius's stiff arm, Luna was gnawing at his festering wound with her Milk Tooth.
As the baby's drool soaked into the rotting flesh, those decayed tissues regenerated at a visibly rapid pace, sprouting shimmering golden scales.
The boy suddenly let out a muffled groan; from his damaged Dragon Wing Xu Ying emerged faintly, revealing Mini Wings secretly drawn with magic on Luna's Hundred Day Feast.
A sudden crack echoed from somewhere in the castle as a barrier shattered.
Aelia's Wrist Dragon's Blood Vine suddenly bloomed seven black roses, each petal reflecting Leonard in conversation with various magical creatures from Leonard's Last Night.
Luna's Three-Dimensional Projection suddenly twisted and deformed, revealing a Magical Fluctuation at the East Tower of Magic Castle that shared its origin with the black mist surrounding Lucius.
"Transfer the Shadow Hound's Contract onto this before Tomorrow's Sunset." Aelia pressed what remained of her daughter's Liuli Ice Flower into her son's Palm; deep within that icy core was sealed a drop of Luna's tear. "Since you can discover Father’s Mistress, why not investigate why he suddenly expanded the East Tower last month?"
As Lucius clenched Bing Hua, a shockwave from the castle's Underground announced the dragon turning for the tenth time.
Luna suddenly extended her small hand towards the East Tower, and for the first time, a cold vigilance emerged in her grape-like eyes—similar to the gaze of a Great Mage facing a nemesis.
The sound of boot heels striking the marble echoed through the corridor outside the greenhouse, and Luna's Umbilical Cord Blood Crystal erupted with a blinding red light.
Aelia's wrist black rose instantly withered into ash, and Lucius nearly dropped the suddenly scalding infant in his arms—Luna's Star Moon Birthmark was burning with the Emerging Gu Long Language Curse.
"It seems I missed the warm moment of family therapy." Leonard's figure pierced through three layers of Defensive Formation, his dark golden patterned cloak tainted with the unique humus scent of the East Tower.
His fingertip turned the purple Crystal Staff, which suddenly pointed at the treatment table, causing the Long Poison suppressed by the Purification Array to boil like a living creature.
Lucius shoved his sister into their mother's arms, his right arm still bearing signs of Long Transformation blocking in front: "Get out!" The boy's hoarse Ailya's Roar shook the Dome, causing ice crystals to fall. The still healing Dragon Scales at the Gap oozed dark red blood droplets. "This place does not welcome traitors."
Ailya's silver hair moved without wind, and the moonstone entwined at its tips suddenly formed a chain net.
When Leonard's Scepter touched the Light Web, the residual Purification Array on the treatment table began to reverse its operation. The Liuli Ice Flower that Luna had bitten into started to absorb dark Black Magic energy.
"Shouldn't Father be concerned about his son about to lose control?" Leonard lightly tapped the ground with his Scepter, and Lucius's left arm's Shadow Pact suddenly erupted with black mist.
The rotting spots that had been purified by Luna's saliva began to decay again. The boy staggered and crashed into the Potion Rack behind him. "Or does Mother enjoy playing the savior more?"
Luna suddenly giggled, her baby fat little hand accurately grasping at the splintered glass shards.
Just when everyone thought she would be hurt, those fragments melted into liquid moonlight in her palm, flowing along the patterns of her Star Moon Birthmark into Lucius’s rotting wound.
Aelia's ice blue eyes instantly filled with Yin Mang: "Three days ago, when you met with the Dark Elf Priestess in the East Tower, did you ever care about your son coughing blood in the rain?" She suddenly tore open her husband's cloak lining, dark purple Elven Pollen drifting down. "These were used to mask Mistress’s scent; they are ten times more valuable than your birthday gift from last year."
Leonard waved his sleeve to shatter the approaching Moonlight Chains. The Amethyst at the tip of his Scepter suddenly reflected Luna's image: "Since this variable arrived, the Magic Tide of Magic Castle has been disrupted seventeen times." His fingertip condensed Dark Magic Power transformed into a poisonous snake that shot towards the Infant Swaddling. "On the night when West Tower’s barrier collapsed, guards saw an infant in swaddling drawing Magic Patterns under moonlight."
Luna's Silver Bell Sound suddenly became sharp.
The Poison Blood Butterflies, which had been gnawing at the Purification Array, suddenly changed direction and tore the Dark Poison Snake into Light Shards.
The Milk Tooth Necklace hanging around the infant's neck burst forth with golden light, casting a Magic Castle Hologram beneath everyone's feet—at the location of the East Tower, a Dark Vortex pulsated, resonating with Leonard.
"Father, why not explain the true purpose of expanding the East Tower?" Lucius suddenly tore open the bandage on his Left Arm. The wound corroded by Long Poison from last night began to emerge with a Dark Elf Contract Seal.
His bloodied Fingertip lightly touched his sister Luna, and the Star-Moon Pattern immediately imprinted the Seal in mid-air. "Why are these things that should be in your Mistress's Bedroom engraved on the wall of my Cultivation Room?"
Leonard's Scepter suddenly erupted with a Dragon Roar, shattering one-third of the greenhouse's Defensive Formation.
Luna's Three-Dimensional Projection shook violently as dozens of Black Tentacles suddenly reached out from the Magic Castle Xu Ying, wrapping around the infant.
Ailya's Silver Hair instantly surged into a Holy Light Shield, with moonlight flowing through it mixed with blood.
"Be careful!" Lucius suddenly pushed Mother aside.
The boy's broken Dragon Wing stubbornly resisted the piercing of three Tentacles, and Dark Red Blood splattered onto Luna's swaddling, only to be absorbed by her Star Moon Birthmark.
The Mini Wings tattoo on his back suddenly materialized, twisting the Tentacles into fragments while carrying the infant's unique Milk Fragrance.
Leonard squinted at this scene. "Interesting, the Guardian Spell of a dragon cub can actually devour Dark Magic." He suddenly leaned closer to his son's rotting wound, pressing the tip of his Scepter against the Dark Elf Seal. "Since you enjoy being an Experiment so much, why not help me test the newly refined Soul Devouring Array in the East Tower?"
Luna suddenly let out a loud cry.
The shattered ice crystals from the Defensive Formation began to float and reassemble, forming a Decomposition Array of dragon clan Forbidden Technique beneath Leonard's feet.
Aelia seized the opportunity to shove her daughter into her son's arms, her bloodied silver hair cascading like a waterfall over her husband's Scepter. "You dare to touch them?"
"Mother, look! This is what you protected with your entire youth—the family." Lucius suddenly chuckled softly as he coughed up Hei Xue. He stroked his sister Luna's Palm, which glowed with a Dark Red Glimmer. "Father used black Obsidian for expanding the East Tower; it was exchanged for a Magic Tool made by Elder Brother. The Moonlight Lotus he gave to Mistress was almost brought back from the swamp by Second Brother..."
Suddenly, Leonard swung his staff and shattered the disintegration array. Amidst the surging Magic Turbulence, seven Milk Teeth suddenly sprang forth from Luna's Swaddling.
These pearly little objects formed a Beidou formation in the air, rebounding all the Dark Magic surging from the East Tower.
The Umbilical Cord Blood Crystal around the baby's neck suddenly projected a new Leonard's Last Night—revealing the process of Leonard forging the family’s secret treasure into a dark Container.
"Enough!" Aelia's sharp shout shattered all illusions.
The Dragon's Blood Vine on her wrist suddenly grew wildly into a Thorned Throne, forcing her husband back to the edge of the archway. "Take your darkness back to the East Tower. If you dare step out of this barrier even a single step before dawn tomorrow..." The vine suddenly bloomed with Blood Roses bearing Poison Spikes. "I will return every bit of the dragon curse I bore for you back then."
Leonard caressed his hand, burned by moonlight, and suddenly gave Luna a strange smile. "Little variable, do you think rewriting the destinies of three worthless beings can save the Magic Castle?" He tapped his Scepter lightly on the Ground, and beneath everyone’s feet, the Star Moon Birthmark Projection suddenly cracked open into an abyss. "When the ancient dragon completes its tenth roll, this castle..."
"Father!" Lucius suddenly sprang up and tossed his sister into the air.
The boy's fully transformed right claw tore through Leonard's Protective shield, while his left hand precisely caught the falling baby. "You will never understand what family means." His decaying Palm suddenly glowed with Luna's drawn Guardian Array, firmly protecting his sister at his heartbeat.
Aelia's Thorned Throne suddenly blossomed with Moonlight Lotuses, their petals infused with Curse Power slicing toward her husband like blades.
As Leonard dissipated into black mist, his final gaze locked onto Luna—who was gnawing on her brother’s reverse scale with her Milk Tooth, her grape-like Eyes shimmering with the golden light of a Great Mage’s deduction.
"Mother, those Black Tentacles..." Lucius suddenly knelt on one knee, his Long Transformation state rapidly fading.
His trembling Fingertip brushed against his sister's mouth where a Milk Stain lingered, revealing that it bore the corrosive magic unique to the East Tower. "Did Luna know all along..."
Aelia caught her sleeping daughter as the Star Moon Birthmark on the baby's back slowly absorbed the tainted Dark Matter.
She immersed her son’s decaying arm into the Moonlight Spring, watching as the spring water instantly boiled into silver mist. "Go complete the Shadow Hound’s Contract; leave the rest to Mother."
As silence returned to the Treatment Room, Luna unconsciously clutched her brother’s Hem tightly in her dreams.
Lucius gazed at the still-damp tears on the baby's eyelashes and suddenly realized that deep within his soul, a miniature Star Chart had been etched—an imprint made with saliva while he slept on the day of Luna's Hundred Day Feast.
The ancient dragon stirred for the eleventh time, sending shockwaves through the castle's Underground, more intense than ever before.
Moonlight Spring suddenly swirled backward, reflecting scenes from a secret chamber in the East Tower—hundreds of Crystal Bottles filled with the blood of family members slowly revolving around a black Long Jing at the center.
Luna's fingertip traced a Starry Trajectory on the Sheepskin Scroll, and the Laurel Pattern at the center of the Hexagram flickered with an eerie blue glow.
The three-year-old girl's body leaned slightly forward, her Emerald Eyes reflecting each pulse of energy from the Ancient Magic Rune.
"Miss, the lady is here." The crystal doorbell chimed as Aelia's Crimson Purple Skirt swept across the Gilded Floor Tiles, accompanied by Ye Lu's Han Qi, stopping at the edge of the Magic Circle.
She tapped her Amethyst-embedded Scepter three times on the Ground, causing ripples to spread across the Protective Barrier.
The baby lifted her small face, smeared with magical potion, and saw the Dark Red Blood Vein swirling in Aelia's eyes.
The firelight from the hearth danced on the Secret Silver Ring on Aelia's left hand, refracting seven cracks as fine as Silk—signs of weakening in the Glorious Demon Fortress' Guardian Barrier.
"Lucius' Magic Circuit has collapsed again." Aelia suspended a crystal ball above the Magic Pattern Array. In its image, an eighteen-year-old youth curled up beside the Moonlight Fountain, strange Purple Black patterns winding through his silver hair. "Leonard said this is a trial necessary for inheriting the silver moon Bloodline."
Luna pressed her Chubby Palm against the surface of the crystal ball, her foresight flooding over her Sea of Consciousness like a tide.
She saw that on Lunar Eclipse Night three months later, Lucius would be torn apart by raging magic as it shattered his Meridian, while the silver moon Emblem on the Magic Castle Dome would be stained crimson at that time.
"It’s not a trial; it’s a curse." The baby’s Baby Voice caused Aelia's pupils to constrict sharply. "The Shadow Stone on Father’s Scepter is polluting the inheritance of the silver moon Bloodline."
Suddenly, a thunderclap erupted outside as Gothic Spires cast grotesque shadows in the pale Dazzling Lightning.
Lucius' anguished scream pierced through three layers of stone walls, and a Magic Turbulence swept away Luna's coral fleece sleeping cap.
Aelia's Scepter erupted with a protective Light Barrier, but as it touched her son, Zi Wu, it emitted a hissing sound of corrosion.
"Use the Xingyue Resonance technique!" Luna leaped onto the center of the Magic Circle, and twelve Moonlight Stones automatically spun into a protective ring.
As Lucius crashed through the Stained Glass and fell into the room, the infant Fingertip was gathering the long-lost Silver Moon Magic Pattern.
Leonard's furious shout coincided with a Curse that shattered the air, dark Purple Lightning cleaving through the Dome Mural.
In the gust of energy, Luna caught a glimpse of her Father's Scepter, where Shadow Matter writhed at its tip—greedily devouring the energy of the Magic Fortress Barrier.
"Does Father think the infant should not touch the Silver Moon Staff?" Luna's voice carried the pressure of a Great Mage as she floated above the Magic Turbulence, her Magic Pattern resonating with Lucius to create a Resonant Tremor.
Just as the Shadow Spell was about to engulf Aelia, the siblings' Magic Torrent transformed into a Silver Giant Net, enveloping the entire Magic Castle in a barrier woven from moonlight.
The Scepter Gem exploded in a clash of energies, and the splintered Amethyst shards reflected Leonard's astonished face.
As Luna fell into her Mother's embrace, she heard Lucius awakening in the distance with a silver moonlit chant, accompanied by rising gasps in the dark night: "The variable foretold... the Silver Moon Magic Pattern has manifested!"
