When the clock passed midnight, Yuna woke up in her room. When she looked through the glass window on the wall, she saw nothing but a thick black sky. Trying hard to sleep but she could not, Yuna got up and went to the canteen. She was surprised when Tamarinne was still waking and read a book.

"Didn't think you would stay up this late," Yuna greeted when she came close to her.

"Oh, Yuna," Tamarinne was startled a bit but she steadied her calm and greeted back. Placing the book on the wooden table, she said, "What about you?"

"Probably I drank too much coffee," Yuna replied and sat down on a chair in front of Tamarinne.

"It's one of your favorite drink, after all," the idol smiled.

Then they kept silent. Looking at her with her worrying eyes, Yuna wondered, "Is everything okay?"

"I really want to say yes, but I feel no at the same time," Tamarinne replied.

"Are you worrying about Al?" Yuna asked.

"Yeah…" Tamarinne nodded, then she said, "Actually, although everything is fine, I'm still worried about us. You know, both you and me, we are not from Orbis originally. I wonder if one day, we will be forced to return to our world."

"I see," Yuna quickly understood what she meant.

"I'm trying not to think negatively, but I'm very scared that when everything is over, we will be parted away and it is not even our will," Tamarinne gazed at the table lifelessly.

Yuna was not sure how to comfort her friend. Suddenly, she remembered something and said, "I think it's not a problem at all. Remember my dimensional machine that we used to return to our world before?". When Tamarinne nodded, she continued, "Actually, I haven't completed yet. When it is finally done, maybe we can come and return every time we want. So cheer up, okay? Looking at how sad you are right now really reducing my motivation."

Tamarinne was surprised but what Yuna said was not impossible. Understanding her feeling, she smiled and replied, "Thank you."

"To tell the truth, you may not have to worry about that," Karzan, Yuna's guardian, suddenly appeared in the thin air and spoke.

His appearance startled both of them and Yuna had to shout as him, "Karzan I told you many times. Don't suddenly appear from out of nowhere like that."

Knowing his fault, Karzan said, "Okay, I'm sorry."

"But what do you mean we don't have to worried?" Tamarinne asked.

"First, nobody knows when everything will be over, so I can say that even if you and Al grow old, you won't be separated," Karzan explained, "Second, Orbis and Earth have a strange connection, like they have a bridge linking each other, and as Yuna said, if she completes her machine, you can come in and come out anytime you want, although I still suggest you should be careful."

"We understand," both Tamarinne and Yuna nodded. It seemed they were worried for nothing.

"One other thing," Karzan spoke and he looked at Yuna, which made her not understanding what he wanted to say. He then continued, "Do you think we should tell her about Al's real identity?"

"What do you mean?" Tamarinne wondered.

"Well, to tell you the truth, Al is the same as Karzan, meaning he is a guardian," Yuna replied and she explained to her the whole thing. At first, Tamarinne was very surprised but she felt sorry for him. Afterward, Yuna said, "We're sorry for hiding you for this long."

It's okay, I understand. Honestly, I didn't think Al is a guardian. It makes him cooler than before," Tamarinne smiled.

"But it means you are very important in this operation," Karzan added, "If something happens to you, Al likely will be corrupted and that is the last thing we want to see."

Karzan was very worried about Al. Until this time, he would not expect him would meet anyone who could possibly be his new Heir. He would never want Al to fight if it was not the last resort. The worry Karzan gave for Al was not because he was a dangerous guardian, who could be corrupted and was able to delete everyone's memory, but because he was a friend of him.

"Actually, Tamarinne is Al's new Heir."

Suddenly, Iseria came in and joined the discussion.

"What do you mean?" Tamarinne looked at the female elf.

"Most of the time, guardians cannot choose their own Heir and normally, it is fate that decides an Heir and a guardian, like me and Yuna for example," Karzan explained.

"But there is some exception. If a guardian has a strong and irreplaceable connection for a person, that person will likely be a Hair as well. Take Ras and Arky as an example, the same as you and Al," Iseria added.

"That's… quite a sudden," Tamarinne did not believe them at first but the way they looked convinced her.

"But still, when I spoke with Zaeon, my guardian, about Al, he seemed to be very mad at Karzan, even though he understood why he awoke him," Iseria said while looking at Karzan.

"That's new to me," Yuna wondered.

"Is it because he's dangerous like Karzan said?" Tamarinne asked.

"No, it's not that reason. But I think we should save it before we rescue Al," Iseria suggested and everyone agreed with her.

"That's said, now Tamarinne is a part of Ultimate Heirs of Orbis team now," Yuna positively laughed and said it out of nowhere.

Understanding her good deed, Iseria looked at Tamarinne, "She's right. I'm looking forward to work with you from now on."

Embarrassingly, Tamarinne replied, "I-I'll do my best!"

The flying ship was floating above the white clouds, too high for anyone on the ground to spot them. People in Perlands or Aakhen kept their daily life going on without noticing it. When the ship reached the sky of Witchaven, they could see the thick green forest in the center of lighter green plains. At first, the team did not see anything unusual and thought nothing bad had happened yet. However, as they descended from the air, they started seeing black smoke scattering around Witchaven. The closer they were to the ground, the more smoke appeared. No need to say anything, they all prepared for the fight.

As the ship landed on an open place, a group of dead white skin monsters, crawling on four legs jumped on the ship and surrounded the team. With their dog-like head and heavy stinky breath from them, they knew Archdemon had returned. Without a warning, the monsters attacked them. Yuna summoned her partner, a white mechanic ball who she named Tuna, appeared digitally from her phone and shot rapid beams to the monster. Iseria cooperated with Mercedes. With their flying swords from Iseria and magic lightings from Mercedes, they were able to deal with large numbers. Meanwhile, Arkasus changed his form from the fluffy ball to a blue wolf. Riding on him was Ras, his Heir. Together, both of them ran around and eliminated any monster surrounded the ship. Tamarinne, the one who was not capable of fighting was being protected by the others. Despite feeling weak, she still supported everyone with her healing magic. Tamarinne was not only able to heal their wounds, but also their strength and endurance, making them be able to fight as their best conditions.

The battle went on fiercely until the Archdemons withdrew to the forest. Taking this chance, the team took a break.

"Tamarinne, are you okay?" Iseria looked at her concernedly.

Breathing tiredly, she replied, "I'm okay,"

Tamarinne looked around the dead bodies of the monsters. It was far more than she expected. Blood and body parts of the monsters were everywhere, on the wooden ship, on the plain ground. It was only a small fight and she startled when she thought of how many times the others had to fight against them. Looking at how the others were holding themselves and acted like it was a normal day, Tamarinne wondered how they could do it.

"She's definitely not okay," Yuna saw through Tamarinne's struggling.

"We can't blame her, after all," Iseria commented.

Tamarinne startled when she realized they were mentioning her. Did not want to worry them, she stated, "Don't worry. I can hold myself." Then she saw something on the sky, she pointed at it as everyone followed her, "What is that?"

Floating on the sky was a giant black ball. Nobody could explain what it was but it was floating above the center of Witchaven. Staying here would not do anything well, they started rushing toward it. Waiting for them were many Archdemon but they could not stop the team.

"What in the world…"

When they moved to the city, they saw the citizens were acting very strange. Some of them were hugging and flirting a tree, or lying on the leaves, picking dirt, and said they were rich. Some of them were swimming in a fountain. The more they moved closer to the city, the stranger it was. And then, they saw a familiar face.

"I see you did come," Tenebria said when she was standing on a balcony of a medium-size house and looked down on them. She smiled mysteriously.

"What have you done, Tenebria?" Ras shouted as her.

Tenebria calmly replied, "No need to be that aggressive. You see, I haven't killed any of them or destroyed any buildings yet. The havoc you see is their works, not mine. I just…" she paused and moved her finger on the air before she finished, "… give them a motivation to do so."

"So instead of doing by yourself, you make them do it. But how?" Yuna questioned.

"You know that everyone has their own demon inside them. They just don't want to reveal it. With the new power, I am able to let them live with their true self," Tenebria replied.

As she spoke, they heard loud bangs and explosions from around the city. Some citizens and sorcerers were destroying things and they all lost their sanity.

"Why are you doing this?" Ras shouted.

"Don't you already forget? I'm an Acolyte, and creating chaos and destruction is my duty. Just like you, the hero who kills the Archdemon and protect the peace," Tenebria answered, "Here's the thing, Ras. Without the villain, the hero will be forgotten. You should thank me instead of being angry at me."

"What is she talking about?" Tamarinne could not understand this woman's mind.

"You're just making excuse. If this wrong sinister is your duty, then it's my duty to eliminate it. I will keep protecting peace until the day I die," Ras spoke determined.

"Speak by a man who slept well in the middle of the Archdemon war decades ago," Tenebria replied and Ras was stunned of what she said. Then she looked at Iseria and said, "I remembered that elf. She was desperately fighting the Archdemon. Just like everyone else, she was hoping that the Heir of the Covenant would wake up and destroyed the Archdemon. But he didn't answer and resulted in many deaths of her friends. And she was not the only one.". Then she smiled devilishly, "If it wasn't for Ras, you would not lose so many friends. It was his fault, am I right?"

"What's in the past belongs to the past. You won't manipulate me that easy," Iseria responded.

"Oh? Is that so?" Tenebria smiled and raised her hand towards the black ball on the air, "How about I reminded you how painful you were suffering?"

As she finished, they all saw something strange on the black ball. It later revealed its true form, an eye with no eyelash eyelid slowly opened. When the orange eyelid and black pupil looked at the team, its pupil expanded.

"Don't look at it!"

Karzan appeared and warned them but he was too late. Ras, Mercedes, Arkasus, Yuna and Iseria was stunned when their eyes met the giant eye. The first one moved again was Arkasus, he jumped on meat stall and ate them raw while happily commented they were all good snacks. Then Yuna walked lifelessly to a citizen while calling her father's name.

"Saria! Wait for me, Saria!" Iseria suddenly rushed to a tree while calling the name of a dead friend.

As for Ras, he kneeled on his knee and started crying. "Vildread…" he mumbled and picked up his sword, and pointed as Mercedes. "It was you… It was you who killed him. I will have my revenge" he angrily shouted at the Homunculus.

"General Vildred. You killed Queen Diene. I will never forgive you," Mercedes mistook Ras, the most important person of her to a dead man. They both then fought as they were enemies and would not stop until one of them died.

"Everyone, wake up!"

Suddenly, only one person in the team was not affected by the giant ball. Tamarinne was shouted out loud and was trying to wake up Yuna and the others but she was helpless. She did not know what she should do and later, Tenebria noticed her immunity.

"I don't understand why you're not affected by the Eye of Illusion," Tenebria landed on the ground and looked at Carrot. She summoned a pink magic ball on her hand and said, "I don't like it so… just die."

When she threw the lethal ball to Tamarinne, Karzan risked himself to protect him but without Yuna's consciousness, he was not able to endure the attack. Even though the magic ball could not kill him, Karzan could not move his body.

"Nice try, but it's over. Without your Heir, you won't be able to reverse time as you did before. But still, you are an annoying opponent so can you please just die?" Tenebria coldly commented before she was ready to throw another destructive magic ball.

Both Tamarinne and Karzan were helpless and could not think clearly. They did not know what to do when many red portal gates opened, and a swarm of monsters appeared from them. Additionally, a giant monster who had tentacles with sharp heads attached to its mouths started roaming and destroyed anything on its path. Being shocked and stunned, both of them thought it was all over.

When Tenebria smiled as victory was in her hands, suddenly, from the air, many purple devil snakes appeared and attacked her rapidly, forcing her to dodge. The next thing she saw was a man in light purple clothes jumped to her and attacked her with his sword. He was so fast that Tenebria could not counter-attack and could only dodge. Finally, she saw a space and summoned a bunch of pink bolts of lightning to hit him. It was nothing but a child play to him. However, instead of keep attacking her, the man stepped back and kept distant.

"Wouldn't expect to see a dead man walking around here," Tenebria said in annoying.

"Sorry Tenebria, but you won't have your way," the mysterious man calmly spoke and he then turned to Tamarinne. "I apologize for all the sudden, young lady but if you want to help us, then point your hand to that giant eye and order it as your command. Right now, you're the only one who can control it," he said

At first, Tamarinne did not understand a thing he said. She looked at Karzan for assistance and saw his nod. Tenebria quickly aimed at her but the mysterious man charged and attacked her. Tamarinne then pointed both of her hands towards the giant eye.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, the eye closed and everyone returned to their sense. The citizens woke up and it did not take them too long to realize their city was surrounded by monsters. They screamed in fear and panic while running for their life.

As for the team, Ras and Mercedes could not understand why they were fighting while Yuna and Iseria struggled to understand what they were doing. But for Ras, when he looked at the man who was fighting Tenebria, he could not hold his shock and surprise.

"Vildred?"

The long black hair man crossed his arms and formed a black magic seal on the ground before he summoned more purple demon snakes and kept Tenebria busy. Meanwhile, Ras lost his words. He was shocked but happy to see him, but when his senses came back, he wondered if it was another illusion created by the Acolyte.

"Vildred, is that you?" Ras asked. He desperately and hopefully that it was not a lie.

"Save the talk later, Ras. Right now, we need to fight back the Archdemon first," the man calmly replied.

Suddenly, black smoke covered Tenebria and when it faded away, she changed her form. Everything on her clothes was changed to black, including her short shirt and pants. Her hair also changed to black as well. As she finished, she created a pink magic ball and smashed it on the ground, destroyed everything around her. But Karzan interfered again as he did before. Everything Tenebria destroyed would return to normal. At this time, she was annoyed and angry. And then, she mysteriously smiled.

As Vildred and Ras charged to her, a shadow figured from the air jumped down on them, smashing the ground strongly that pushed them backward. A man who had dark red hair and wore full black armor, wielding a red and black sword was standing in front of them.

"You're late," Tenebria smirked.

"It's surprised me that you are able to control the whole city. I have to give you a compliment, Tenebria," the man coldly replied.

"Kayron!"

When Vildred saw the man, he angrily called his name and charged to him. Both of them swung their swords. No matter how fast and strong Vildred attacked, Kayron only used one arm to wield his sword and blocked all with ease. When Kayron was smiling, he suddenly saw Ras was standing behind Vildred and closed his eyes. And when he opened them, the ground under him raised up and Ras charged as Kayron at a very high speed, created a sword storm, and attacked Kayron. Being surprised, Kayron was being pushed back. The Acolyte was not the only one who was caught of guard, but Vildred as well. He could not believe how strong Ras was after the last time they met. He smiled confidently and proudly as his best friend and supported him to fight Kayron.

"Need help?" Tenebria watched and mocked him.

"Nice joke. Why don't you take care of the other Heirs, including the new one?" Kayron still held his calm and replied.

"Fine," Tenebria flied away and she came to Yuna, Iseria and Tamarinne.

Looking around, Iseria knew the situation was getting worse. The Archdemon was destroying Witchaven and they were outnumbered. She was trying to think about what they should do but there was no possibility against the two strongest Acolyte and an army of Archdemon.
