*Insert White Knight Chronicles Opening the Travelers

-Oh so quietly-

The song began as the scene showed a sky view of the Vance Estate from a large hill before it was followed by the Queen's Capital.

-Eyes of the angels open wide, Aria-

The scene then showed Elven Forest, and then the Dwarven Mountains as dwarves were seen mining while the Elves were farming before topping it off with and airship flying away with flapping wings like a bird.

-To a world yet unseen by you-

The scene showed a young Leina walking around the Vance Estate with Elina before passing by her mother's armor and stopping. It was followed by an image of Risty in her burned down home from childhood, and finished with Claudette looking at her mother's grave.

-Arise! The journey's begun!-

The song began to pick up as it showed Aster, Kaguya, and Dilan with their guild while holding their weapons of choice before images of passed members appeared to be replaced with Leina, Risty, and the Floor Guardians. Soon the White Knight appeared with its eyes flashing to life as the scene with each guitar drop changed to different images and locations all filled with adventures and battles. It then topped off with Aster, Kaguya, and Dilan facing Solaris and Kira in mortal combat. It was then joined with Leina and Claudette glaring each other down ready to fight as well with Leina holding a spinning top like item and Claudette holding a card in one hand and a top of her own hanging from her belt.

The scene then hit the max when it showed The White Knight facing the Sun King while the Moon Maiden and Dragon Knight faced the Black Knight. It then followed up with showing Aster without his helmet as images of the White Knight in action flashed behind him before ending with the White Knight drawing its blade.

-Heaven is spilling her heart around-

The scene started with Aster as he was doing his day to day stuff from reading reports, accepting Quests, and just relaxing with a map of Gainos behind him. Then Kaguya walked behind him and patted his shoulder as it changed again.

-Open your palm and see what you've found-

The scene then showed Kaguya with her daily activities as she was working on strategies, training, and just plain hunting for game. Then Dilan jumped on her back smiling like the goofball he was.

-Somewhere in the fog, a moment we forgot-

The scene showed Dilan running around in a slight panic before showing him in battle spinning his spear around before topping it off with him snoozing a bit. It then showed Leina walking behind him with her hands behind her back as she smiled a bit.

-Remember my darling you're loved but you're lost-

The scene showed Leina walking about a bit before showing her training and with her sword as it seems she was training with Aster as he showed her sword play before it changed again.

-Raising your hands to a beckoning sky-

The scene showed General Kira walking forth with the Black Knight behind her as she glared from her armor that made it seem she was a man and not a woman.

-Splinters of light are burning your eyes-

It then showed Solaris sitting on his throne, casting is spells in battle, and even playing with his Knights Ark bored out of his mind. It then showed images of the enemies from Solaris to Kira in her armor, Welbellia with her magic active petting her familiar Hades bug, then to Melona, followed up by Airi, then Menace, then Liliana, and finally topped it off with his own floor guardians who protect Valgander.

-Wounded and blind-

The scene then showed Leina in a noble lady dress and Aster in a suit of his own as they danced around a bed of water in a waltz each step taken causing the water to glow.

-And pining for… The gaze of a mother-

The dance was accompanied by images of Aster's new and old friends as well as the warriors who would be both friend and enemies during the Queens Blade Tournament. It then tipped off to Kira in a showgirl dress of the time as she was dancing in a similar manner to Kara in the original White Knight Chronicles. Btu as she danced the scene switched between herself in the armor accompanied by Solaris and Claudette fighting Aster, Leina, Kaguya, and Dilan switch back and forth constantly.

-No, no you can't go back-

The scene then showed images of each Guardian as they were either arguing, laughing, or fighting before showing the same thing for the Flames of Yshrenia own Guardians.

-Don't you dare and try to go back-

The scene then began as Aster was walking with Kaguya and Dilan as they glared upon the oncoming foes as it began a montage.

-Step by step you're all alone! Walking towards tomorrow-

The scene hit the peak as it montaged to every monster in this world as the scene then topped off with Aster stabbing the dagger into the slot on his gauntlet, Kaguya pulled the arrow on her Knights Ark, and Dilan with the Dragon themed lasso belt wrapped around his waist making a Kamen Rider Pose. "VERTO!" They called out and in turn summoning their Knights.

-I follow you beyond the clouds-

The scene showed Aster raising his left hand summoning his Knight Armor. It then showed Dilan crossing his arms over his head before bringing them down as his Dragon Knight Armor rose up behind him. Then it showed Kaguya bowing for a moment before the armor rose up revealing the Moon Maiden while Kaguya stood up straight like a magician of sorts.

-I search for your love in my dreams-

The scene then split into three as it showed the White Knight ready as it slashed through a Grand Gigas. It then exploded behind him bested by the Pale Warrior.

-Seeking west end wind, East End Sea-

The scene then showed Dilan in his Dragon Knight Incorruptus armor as he stabbed through a giant frog creature with his Trident ending it with ease.

-We have one, one destiny-

The scene was soon followed up with Kaguya in the Moon Maiden Incorruptus as she fired an arrow torts the moon which then returned but as a thousand magical arrows that rained down upon her foes taking out many of them at once.

-The traveler walks alone searching for me-

The scene then showed the three Knights facing down the forces of Solaris and his new Yshrenian Empire as the three took a battle stance. Solaris then put on his Sun Kings mask ark as Kira had her Ark out before putting on the mask and drawing the blade respectively. "Verto." The two villains invoked as they summoned their Knights and in turn the eyes flashed to life while they took a battle stance.

-Never end-

The song began to reach its end as soon the scene showed two new knights one clearly female and the other being the basic male build up as the female one shared a resemblance to Leina's mother Maria. The armor was one that had a mask over the humanoid face as well as a sword and shield in her hands but also had parts of Leina's own armor mixed in as well.

The opposing one was clearly based to be a leader of sorts with Thunder striking around it as it glared at the new Knight. Soon all the Knights were gathered as what was once five Knights had become seven before they soon charged at each other to being a grand battle.

The song came to an end as the airship from the beginning flew off to the distance torts parts unknown. But to this a new Chronicles has begun… a new war a brand new White Knights Chronicles.

*End OST

(Start Dilan, Tomoe, and Shizuka)

Trees were rustling as the area was a quiet inviting to many here if they were to see it. The sun was setting from afar as they may need to set up camp soon. Shizuka soon came out of the wood line followed by Dilan and then Tomoe as the trio stood together looking around the area before them.

"This place looks a lot more inviting." Shizuka said as Dilan stretched a bit.

"No kidding." Dilan said as he looked about.

"Of course it's been difficult territory up to now right, Dilan Lady Tomoe?" Shizuka said as she looked to Dilan and Tomoe.

"Well for us perhaps but not for Dilan." Tomoe said as Shizuka had to agree after seeing Dilan's might many times over.

(Begin Flashback Montage)

The scene first showed the trio going up a mountain with Dilan in the Dragon Knight armor carrying the two in his arms ever so gently as Dilan chuckled happily in the memory. The scene then changed again to the trio in cloaks traversing a Twister field as Dilan held his shield up to protect the two woman before he protected them. Following it up was them on a river where they were attacked by a serpent but it was Dilan who sprang into action as he sliced at the creature with his spear. It then followed up with the trio facing a large insect like monster with Dilan as the Dragon Knight with Trident drawn ready to do battle.

(End Flashback)

"I suppose as long as Dilan is with us dying won't be much of a problem." Shizuka said as Tomoe chuckled a bit.

"But the Queen's Blade Tournament challenge for us is to stand side by side with him not in his shadow." Tomoe said as she smiled.

"Hey that's just one of many challenges keep at it and soon we can be equals." Dilan said trying to make them happy. But then they need to acknowledge the elephant in the field. "So what do we do about her?" Dilan asked pointing his thumb to Hachiel as she waved to them nervously.

"I was assigned to Dilan so I need to stick close to him." Hachiel said as she seemed shy around Dilan.

"Alright." Dilan said accepting it for now. "But luckily with her and this map we should be there in no time." Dilan said as he held the map in question as steam stood in their way. They had to agree as it was mainly thanks to Dilan they made it this far as they have. "By the way why does it feel nice around here?" Dilan asked as he looked about the steam before it parted to reveal hot springs a lot of them. "Well that answers that question." Dilan said as he looked to the springs while pointing his thumb to them.

The group then approached the nearest pool as Shizuka tested the water a bit. "Wow the water feels nice." Shizuka sad as Tomoe had an idea.

"Then lets sooth ourselves from the burden of traveling so long." Tomoe said as they were in agreement.

"Yeah I can agree with that." Dilan said as he could use a bit to relax after so long.

"Well then if that's the case... I say let's do mix bathing!" Shizuka called out as the trio were shocked by this. "After all if we really want to be allies then true skin ship is needed!" Shizuka called out with a grin as Dilan was tempted as was Shizuka all the while blushing.

(Meanwhile nearby Elina)

Elina was with her party as they were on horseback as she even had a carriage for her belongings with guards carrying her banners. "Guards the sun is setting go locate a campsite, now." Elina ordered to which a guard on horseback nodded.

"Right." She said as she rode off.

"Irma." Elina began as she looked to the maid from before.

"Yes." She responded calmly and almost emotionlessly.

"Get changed." Elina ordered as Irma nodded.

"Yes ma'am I'll find a suitable place to do so." Irma said before she ran off as Elina smiled in response.

"Hmm she is one of my most tactful pages." Elina said with a smirk on her face.

"I heard she volunteered for this argues journey." One Guard said as she had heard it from the rumor mill.

"Everyone has their reasons." Another said while Elina smirked in response.

"So long as she's useful I don't care." Elina said as she smirked in response to this.

"Lady Elina." A guard called out as Elina looked to her. "Apparently there are hot springs in this region." The Guard said as Elina smiled in response.

"There are." Elina said with a smile on her face.

(Back with Dilan's group)

Dilan, Tomoe, and Shizuka were stripping off their outer layers as Dilan was a bit nervous at first but so was Tomoe. Shizuka had wanted to sink her teeth on Dilan for a while now as she couldn't help be attracted to him. Tomoe was a prude and was even further against it seeing as most priestesses were virgins. Shizuka wasn't afraid to let it hang out as Dilan had underwear under his armor so he wouldn't had to let his junk hang around in the presence of woman.

"You sure about this Tomoe?" Dilan asked as he looked away from Tomoe who was wearing her upper kimono.

"Um... yes of course." Tomoe responded just letting her heart do the talking.

Soon Dilan and Tomoe joined the naked Shizuka in the as Hachiel joined now long after. "The water feels great you guys." Shizuka said as she relaxed into the water. "This will bring you back to life." Shizuka said just relaxing while admiring Dilan's body no doubt from years of training as she was almost tempted to finger herself under the water.

"Yes it's wonderful." Tomoe said as she was clearly enjoying this as she sat next to Dilan.

"Tell me about it." Dilan smiled as he was clearly enjoying as well.

"I agree." Hachiel smiled as she was clearly having a good time here.

"The sunset is beautiful even when we're this far away from home it's still the same crimson sky as Hinomoto." Tomoe said as she admired the sun set.

"It's almost impossible to think how far we've come from there." Shizuka said as Tomoe agreed.

"Well of course we all share the same sky after all." Dilan said getting everyone's attention. "Despite borders, despite the oceans, and despite our cultures and races we all have one thing in common we all share the same sky... one sky and one destiny." Dilan said as he put his hands to circle around the crimson sun.

"That's beautiful." Tomoe said as she never thought of it that way.

"I can name a few things more beautiful." Dilan said out of instinct before blushing and looking back to the sunset. "By the way do you guys ever wonder why the sun sets red?" Dilan asked as he looked to the sunset catching everyone's attention. "See Light is made up of all types of colors but out of all of those colors red is the one that travels the farthest." Dilan said as this got a laugh from everyone a bit.

But as they relaxed a new sound was heard one both Shizuka and Dilan knew as the group shot out of the water. "What was that sound?" Tomoe asked as Dilan glared out a bit.

"Those were horses." Tomoe said as she glared out a bit. "I'll go take a look its best if you all wait here." Shizuka said as Dilan agreed as Shizuka was the faster one here. When Shizuka left Dilan looked to Tomoe ready to protect her as needed.

(Back with Elina)

"Lady Elina it's too dangerous for you to go off alone." A guard said as Elina was riding her horse.

"I just want to bath." Elina said ignoring her subordinates.

"But milady." The guard tried to urge knowing of the Flames of Yshrenia and the Soldiers of HOLY being out and about in recent times.

"Enough you're dismissed for now." Elina said as she rode away.

(Nearby)

Shizuka had saw the whole thing as she knew what she was. "Oh she's a western warrior." Shizuka said identifying Elina instantly. "No this isn't good she's going to end up running straight into Lady Tomoe and Dilan at the Hot Spring." Shizuka said before a new voice was heard.

"Who are you?" The voice of Irina said as Shizuka looked to see her there with a gasp. Shizuka kept her cool knowing she had to be careful since if Wester Warriors were anything like Dilan then they were formidable combatants.

(Back with Dilan and Tomoe)

Hachiel had flew off a bit ago to keep a look out since from her magic she could tell that other than Tomoe two other warriors of the Queens Blade were in the area. In case she had to host one she was the closest Angel available for the task. Dilan and Tomoe stayed close as Dilan had his hands flexing to his spear as he was on edge fearing that they may end up in a fight soon.

Tomoe herself relaxing in the hot springs and clear her thought, but she had to many to do so, as she remember what her master said to her before the Kuma ninja attacked.

(Flashback)

AS Tomoe sitting in the room with her master, as she started saying to her, "We don't know about the land or the strength of western warriors, there no guarantee that you'll survive to return to Hinomoto."

"I will be the sword that protect Hinomoto, if that what destiny require of me as a warrior priestess," Tomoe said as believe what she said to her master but didn't know what the future held for her before as a lot has change when Dilan came into her life.

(End Flashback)

'Whatever hardship I endure, it's for Hinomoto, but with Dilan at my side, I believe I can succeed,' Tomoe thought as suddenly someone started to approach them as Dilan ready his spear as Tomoe turn and said, "Shizuka?"

But the person that stood in the hot spring with the dup was none other than Elina Vance as Dilan look to her and wonder, 'What is she doing here?'

"So you beat me to this place," Elina said as Tomoe didn't know what to say to her as she was afraid she might have to fight until Elina said to her, "You two leave here now!"

Tomoe and Dilan didn't move right away, as Elina was getting impatient by this as she said to them, "Didn't you hear me?"

"Yes we heard you, we just don't care," Dilan said hoping he can drive her off, make her sit far away, or go to a different hot spring pool as there more all around, but Elina just get piss at that as she says, "How dare you, I'm Captain of the guard, Elina Vance, and I demand exclusive use of this spring. Vulgar commoners must leave immediately."

"Hey this isn't your land Miss Vance, and we aren't your people, and there are other places in the area you can soak in, so you can ether relax somewhere else, or leave yourself otherwise I won't hesitate to hit a girl like you," Dilan said as Elina just got piss at this as she yell out, "How dare you defy me! I am of noble blood, and I demand your respect."

"No you demand my attention," Dilan said as he know the different between the two, and he always wanted to say that too, as Tomoe said, "Dilan-san, we can go elsewhere. There no need to-

"No! We're not leaving, if miss fancy pants don't like other people company then it's her problem not ours," Dilan said as he not going to move elsewhere as he want to enjoy the hot spring with the girls and relax for a moment, but it seem Elina doesn't see it that way as her eyebrow twitch to this as it seem the argument isn't over yet.

(Shizuka)

The former Kuma ninja stair down at the dark skin maid before her with her chain sickle weapon out ready to fight if needed.

"I got a question for you." Shizuka began while keeping her guard up. "You wouldn't happen to tell me about a shortcut to get to the Queen's Capital faster?" Shizuka asked as she looked to Irina.

"Then Queen's Capital?" Irina asked looking over Shizuka knowing her orders.

"That's right we're in a hurry to get there and with our muscle accompanying us it's like he just attracts challengers wherever we go." Shizuka said with a chuckle but she knew Dilan was hiding something seeing as the way he looked at her was like he saw right through her very being.

"Your outfit is rather strange like that of a Hinomoto ninja." Irina said making Shizuka go wide eyed in response as Irina began to recall her orders from the Queen.

(Flashback Aldra's throne room)

"One of the Ninja's have switched sides and has started causing trouble." Aldra said as she glared down upon her assassins. "Furthermore two new factions have appeared right under our noses and all attempts to infiltrate them have been met with utter failure." Aldra said as she glared down upon her subordinates. "And furthermore one of the Warriors of the Soldiers of HOLY had taken advantage of the chaos and with two woman of Hinomoto taken advantage of the confusion to breach this continent." Aldra said while she was not pleased with these results. "And what have you done?" She asked as soon her right eye opened causing the Assassin who was in trouble to become petrified in crystal like stone.

"There is something I must verify with these woman of Hinomoto, bring them to me." Aldra said but she had more orders to give. "Furthermore I want our best to locate information on the Soldiers of HOLY and there hidden base of operations. The Flames of Yshrenia are based within the Marsh Lands but all attempts to breach there defenses have been met with failure." Aldra said showing she was displeased. "We must bring them to heel and if they refuse destroy them and take the power of These Knights of theirs to mass produce." Aldra said as the Knights Power was formidable especially the Sun Kings power. But perhaps through the Sun King a new Knight could be born the Queen of the Sun to overthrow the King.

(End Flashback)

"Imagine meeting a ninja here of all places." Irina said as she looked to Shizuka knowing that one of the HOLY members must be nearby.

"You're more than a mere page aren't you?" Shizuka said while glaring at Irina. "You smell the same as me." Shizuka said as she was ready for a fight.

The battle then started as Shizuka launched her weapon at the Page who jumped out of the way... but only hit her dress which was empty now. Shizuka then gasped in shock when Irina appeared behind her and began to move to safety. Irina was upon Shizuka as the Assassin chased after the Ninja. Irina then jumped up and tried to stab Shizuka only to stab into a log that took the attack for her. Irina then turned around only for her top to be sliced by Shizuka exposing her left breast and with it her hardened nipple.

But before Irina could attack Shizuka had her weapon at Irina's neck ready to kill her if needed. "You can't win admit defeat." Shizuka ordered as she glared at Irina. But before Irina could use the blade to reflect a glare to Shizuka's face both girls were hit by a glare of light causing them to squint their eyes before panicking. The two jumped out of the way in time to avoid an attack from Kira with Muramasa.

"Ello loves mind if I cut in." Kira said as the two then glared at Kira knowing her to be part of Yshrenia.

"Kira." Shizuka glared as Irina saw this girl was a target.

"Oh don't worry Shizuka I'm not here for you..." Kira began before gesturing to Irina. "I'm here for you." Kira said as Irina was wide eyed at this. "Emperor Solaris had ordered me to take out those attacking us and send them back to Aldra as a warning and it seems you fit the bill." Kira said as Irina was on edge now.

"I suggest you come to heel then the might of Aldra's forces will overpower your small plot of land." Irina said while glaring at Kira.

"Ah quantity over quality the ever present argument." Kira said with a smirk before taking a battle stance. "But seeing as I am my Emperors Right hand and his Enforcer I have to take you down." Kira said glaring at Irina with a smirk on her face.

"You asked for it." Irina said as it seems a battle was about to take place.

(Back with Dilan, Tomoe, and Elina)

"You're a contender in the Queen's Blade are you not?!" Elina demanded glaring at Tomoe.

"Yes I am." Tomoe responded as Dilan was ready for anything.

"Good seeing as my sister is a contender in the Tournament I had opted to partake in it as well and I demand you fight me." Elina glared as she pointed at Tomoe.

"I refuse." Tomoe said showing she was not intended to fight.

"What how dare you!?" Elina demanded but Dilan seemed elsewhere. "If you won't fight me then why do you compete!?" Elina yelled as it was clear she was not in a good mood.

"Because I am participating to secure my peoples future. Fighting you here would have no meaning and with it no honor." Tomoe said but Dilan began to look around.

Dilan had heard movement heavy movement in fact as it was clear they were not alone. It was then he realized why as his eyes shot open as slits as his ears and nose picked up on it. "Speed of Mercury, Speed of Hermes, Blessing of Winds, Mach Speed." Dilan mumbled the spells as Elina heard of this.

"What are you mumbling about!?" Elina began just before Dilan moved.

"Get down!" Dilan roared out pushing Tomoe out of the way and pushing Elina out of the way as well just in time to avoid a large blade slashing down upon the water. "What?" Tomoe asked she saw this.

"Why did you." Elina began as her hands touched his chest and went wide eyed. 'My god you can grate cheese on those.' Elina thought as Dilan was on top of her.

"Are you ok?" Dilan asked as Elina then regained herself.

"Get off me you brute!" She yelled as Dilan jumped off to give her room.

"Hey I just saved your life from that?!" Dilan called out as the steam began to part revealing an artificial Incorruptus a Magi war machine first seen in White Knight Chronicles 1 as the boss in a Quest at the Dogma Rift.

"What is that thing?" Tomoe asked as she saw the mechanical creature.

"A prototype to an artificial Knight but the only people who can make this thing is my group and... Solaris." Dilan said as he knew what was going on here.

"That's right punk." A new voice said as soon Dilan saw a Goblin dressed in S&M type gear as he swore, it's like bondage had an unholy hate child with a Runescape Goblin. "Solaris gave me this big guy to help handle someone like you while I grab that Warrior Priestess and the Vance girl." Dogura said as he licked his lips in anticipation at the thought of breaking these girls.

"Well to bad looks like Solaris made a bad call here." Dilan said as he glared at the Goblin.

"Oh and you think you can take this and my warrior on at the same time?" He asked as Dilan then smirked just in time as he used his magic to bust out his shield and blocked an attack from behind by Branwen.

"Oh you mean her? Yeah I saw him coming a mile away." Dilan said before he pushed her off and got ready.

"Equip Hero Set." Dilan invoked as in turn his Heavy Armor Hero Set was equipped on his body as he spun his spear in his hand while pulling it out.

"W-what?!" Elina asked as she was wide eyed while she saw this.

"Tomoe, Elina get dressed seems we won't be walking away without a fight." Dilan said as he glared at the two. "I'll keep them busy till you two are ready." Dilan said as he glared at the foes before him.

"Get him!" Dogura roared out as Dilan saw it coming and began to fight both of them off. He knew he was faster than the fake Knight and since he wasn't limited by combat mechanics of a game he managed to out maneuver it. He made sure to keep just out of its reach of attack knowing full well that it was a heavy hitter and thus was slow. He then blocked the chain ball from the lady as he then used the momentum to jump over it and shield bash her.

Dilan spun the spear and stabbed it behind him just in time to parry an attack from the machine. Dogura saw how this was going and glared at the guy as he was getting angry. "Come on Branwen make him squeal!" Dogura called out as the now identified Branwen growled but agreed for now.

Dilan then stood still with a smirk on his face as just before Branwen could attack Elina jumped in and blocked the attack with her spear. Then Tomoe jumped in and use her warrior kick upon Branwen who jumped back to avoid it. Both Tomoe and Elina were fully clothed again as they glared at the two attackers.

"Dammit." Dogura cursed as he took out a remote and put in commands for the mech but clearly he had no idea how to work it.

"Ok divide and conquer you two handle dragon girl here I'll take on big metal bolt head here." Dilan said as Elina glared at him for this.

"Who are you to give me orders!?" Elina demanded as Dilan then smirked to this.

"Then be my guess handle ugly here." Dilan said gesturing to the giant as it got ready to attack again causing Elina to pout and go for Branwen.

"I'm not doing this because you told me to!" Elina defended as she and Tomoe went after Branwen.

"Wow... I always wanted a Tsunadere… and she does not disappoint." Dilan said as it was a guilty pleasure of his when it comes to Tsunadere's.

Dilan then charged at the beast as marks upon his body began to glow as to the normal person he was human but his character was not. He was what was known as a Hybrid with an unusually strong connection to Dragons. Dilan was one of few special beings who have abilities granted to them by greater powers and for Dilan it was Dragons. His character class was a Dragoon thus it was no wonder why he was an expert with spear based combat. And being a human Farian hybrid and one such being made him the perfect pactmaker of the Dragon Knight, and most of all a Dragoon he was one tough opponent to try fighting in combat. Dilan wanted the girls out of the way though he'd rather avoid squishing them if and when it comes down to summoning his Dragon Knight into battle.

The Prototype Knight came at Dilan again as he leap out of the way while slash with his spear causing a bit of damage to the arm of the thing, but only the armor, with Dilan laugh a bit as he said, "This should be a piece of cake."

"We'll see about that punk!" Dogura said as he didn't care about the sudden marking appearing on Dilan as all he knew is taken him down and bringing him before Solaris as he push the joy stick of his controller forward and push a button to make his artificial proto-Knight to charge at Dilan while raising its sword to him

With Dilan leap towards the knight and attack it head on as spear and sword meet in the middle, and cause a huge shockwave come forth pushing the water all around back for a moment.

(The girls)

Tomoe and Elina battle against Branwen, as they have numbers on their side, it seem pointless as it seem Branwen seem to be holding her own well against the two girls.

When Tomoe came in to strike Branwen, the dragon warrior swing her ball and chain at her, hitting her mid-section and sent her flying back, hitting the ground hard a bit.

Elina came at Branwen from above with her spear as she thrust down to Branwen, as slave girl put up her shield and parry the spear attack away, making Elina stab into stone got stuck a bit when she landed and try to pull out quickly before Branwen raise her sword towards her and attack, as Elina quickly let go of her spear to dodge the attack, and then quickly leap to her weapon and swing around it to strike the Gladiator girl with a kick, pushing her back a bit.

Branwen counter attack with her chain ball at Elina as it hit her spear, making it come free from the stone and push Elina into a rock behind her as she gasp to that before falling to her knee to catch her breath after feeling of the air was push out of her lungs.

Branwen leap towards the Vance girl to strike at her until Tomoe came around and block her weapon and stop Branwen in her track while saying, "You shall not come any closer, there no honor to go on fighting."

"Then a fool not to fighting back," Branwen said as she push Tomoe back with great strength with Tomoe held her ground when she got push back and try to counter quickly as she charge forwards with her sword hanging from the side and swing it towards the dragon warrior, only to miss as Branwen leap over her and swing her chain ball at her, aiming form Tomoe head to knock her out, but he warrior priestess duck under it fast before turning around to counter attack but Branwen block her strike.

Getting into a deadlock, Branwen keep pushing Tomoe to make her get push back, as a yell was heard from behind Branwen move out of the way with Tomoe side stepping to avoid Elina who recover from her attack from Branwen as she said to the dragon warrior, "I'll make you pay for attacking me!"

"You won't succeed!" Branwen said to her as she charge at Elina with her weapon, with the captain of the guards block her strike before she saw a shield coming at her, about to strike her with the edge until Tomoe came in and hit the shield away and push Branwen back.

"This is getting us nowhere if we attack individually, we must attack at the same time," Tomoe said as she knew going one on one with someone like Branwen would be one way fight, unless someone can match her speed and strength of a greater force with Elina said to her, "I don't need your help, I can take her on myself peasant!"

Elina charged at Branwen recklessly as Tomoe sighed a bit and follow her to support her if she can as it's going to be a tough fight for them.

(With Dilan)

Dilan was going for his Ark, but the prototype keep trying to attack him before he could try summoning his knight out to fight as he look for a good open and he gotten an idea with the hot springs, with Dogura getting annoyed as he yells out, "Hold still you little pink!"

Dilan just smile at the creepy goblin creature and said, "What's the magic word, Goblin midget?"

"Goblin midget! You want a magic word? Fine then the word is you to die!" Dogura said as he control the proto-knight to attack again swinging the sword down upon Dilan as he stood there and said, "Close enough, Flame Lance!"

Dilan summon forth a flaming lance and shot it at his feet, causing an explosion of smoke and steam at the same the proto-knight slash down where Dilan stood.

"Hu? Where is that punk, did I get him!?" Dogura said as he looked around for Dilan but he was hidden within the mist as suddenly a voice rang out chanting as Dilan shadow appear within the mist as he said, ""O Larvayne, vermillion drake, leveler of ancient lands, grant me your power."

"Oh no," Dogura said as the mist clears up Dilan is seen unharmed and with his knight ark out and around his waist already as he called out while taking a kamen rider stance "Verto!"

The mouth chomp on the crest causing the crest flash to life, as the runic circle appeared around Dilan before he crouched down and put his hands down to it. Once it vanished he raised his arms upwards in a cross form before the dragon knight appeared behind him mimicking his movement, as he lower his arm and spread them out while floating into the Dragon knight chest as it began to glow to life

The dragon knight has appear and stood equal height to the proto-knight now and ready to take it down hard as Dogura sweat to this before saying "So what! I was given this knight to fight against you, now attack my toy!"

The proto-knight charged at Dilan, as if the dragon knight could smile, it would be showing now as he said, "Just because you have a huge weapon, doesn't meant its perfect!"

The dragon knight thrust his trident towards the proto-knight, parry the huge sword before grabbing hold of his spear and strike it back with the back end of the spear, causing it to stumble back with Dogura panic a bit as he jerk the joystick and mash the buttons like a person would do in a fighting video game to make his knight to attack fast.

Dilan was at this point was going to play around with Dogura and show why it's not wise to mess with a "Soldier of Holy" as he charge at the proto-knight and tackle it before pushing it back away from the hot springs as Dogura scream out and ran the other way while the two knights were coming close to him before the proto-knight was shove forth pass Dogura stopping him in his track as it came crashing down before him.

(With the girls)

As the three girls became deadlock with each other as Branwen held Tomoe back with her shield and Elian spear with her bronze sword, before all of them push each other back as they skid across the ground for a moment, as a stair down went down between the two sides before the proto-knight came crashing near them as they stop fighting for a moment and see what that was all about.

To Elina and Branwen surprise, they saw the artificial Knight down, but that wasn't the big shock to them as the saw Dragon knight come forth with a spear in hand as Elina said, "No way, another huge knight thing! How many of these are there?"

"Dilan-san told me there were 5 total knight that been counted for, and his is Dilan knight form, The dragon knight," Tomoe explain as Elina thought seeing the white knight and the black knight were something impossible to be true.

To Branwen shock was different to Elina's own, an flash of her memory came to her as she saw years ago a carving of a the dragon knight that was looking like a Divine Deity of sort with carving of people and dragon bowing down to it, as the memory quickly ended as Branwen said, "Could this be he?"

Branwen cannot deny the resemblance was too uncanny to be a coincidence and if she was being honest she wanted to honestly believe it but at the same time feared it to be truth. It was years ago when her fellow Dragon Warriors had told her of their God the 'Red Dragon King,' whose might and authority commanded all dragons and those who followed their ways. She knew if it was truth then the punishment of her weakness would be severe. Legend said that once when the stars were just right the King would descend into the mortal plain and choose his mate and that mate would be marked and in turn must be left pure and unclaimed.

Elina then went for the attack only for Branwen to block it but the Vance Girl noted how Branwen's arm was shaking almost like she was nervous... as she scared or was she worried. Elina took heed to note this and began to try and figure out what was going on. Was she afraid of Dilan's Knight or of something else that the Knight entails? But as Elina tried to go for the counter attack Branwen's mind kept racing and then Tomoe went for the attack hoping to knock Branwen back somehow.

Branwen jumped back as she tried to keep her focus but it seems everything Dilan had done so far was matching up to that of a Dragon Warrior like herself one who utilized spear based combat. But before Branwen could attack again that was when Dilan had done it.

(Back with Dilan vs Dogura)

The Dragon Knight jumped back and then flew up spinning his trident around with expert trained ease. He then came down and slashed at his foe before he proceeded to kick it in the gut knocking it back hard. He wasn't done as he then went in for a punch and bashed it with the pommel of his spear as Dogura was trying desperately to keep in control. "Come on! Come on!" He cried out button bashing showing he was in no way educated on how to control the Prototype. But before the Prototype could slash down at Dilan he spun around and grabbed its head keep it and its weapon at a distance as he began to raise it up by its dome like head.

"To easy." Dilan scoffed as the machine swung its hands and legs trying to get free somehow.

"Oh no." Dogura said as then Dilan proceeded to crush its head as the dome began to crack and moan from the pressure before it shattered and the violet light vanished. The Machine went limp before Dilan dropped it as Dogura was wide eyed. "Ok time for a tactical retreat AHHHHII!" The little goblin cried out as he soon found himself face to face with the Trident.

"I suggest you give up and answer our questions otherwise... I'll be forced to take action." Dilan said as he glared upon the foe before him.

Dogura then chuckled as he grinned showing off his gold tooth again. "Lucky I planned for this sort of thing." He began before looking to Branwen. "Branwen take those girls down now!" He ordered but to his shock Branwen's movement stopped as she looked to the Dragon Knight while the light of the moon began to glisten off its armor giving it a near divine look.

"King of Red Dragons." Branwen spoke in shock before she dropped her sword and shield before falling to her knees.

"What the, what are you doing do something!" He cried out as Dilan saw what was going on... she must think he is some sort of deity and by the sound of things she thinks he is here to punish her. He wasn't Kaguya or Aster but he was smart enough to know how to use this to his advantage.

"Looks like your slave knows whose side to be on." Dilan began as he then smirked when he saw a flurry of bats fly about as he saw Sophia had arrived upon his summons.

The Bats came in between the dragon knight and Dogura before they seem to fuse together and form the pale skin immortal girl, Sophia Bloodriver, as everyone around saw this expect of Tomoe as she seen Sophia's abilities before.

"Ah master Dilan, it's so good to see you again! Looking so mighty and strong while you're in this form," Sophia said as she is happy to see her master again as Dilan nodded and said, "It's good to see you to Sophia, but I have call you here for a reason."

"Is it killing that sliming green thing there Master, I can do so with ease, like blowing my nose," Sophia said as Dogura said, "You little bitch, I'm going to wipe you face away when I get my hand on- AHH!"

Dogura was face with a blood blade pointed at his face as Sophia said, "Silence worm!"

Dogura whimper in fear to this as he seem he was about to pee himself, with Sophia l looked around and said, "It's pathetic dealing with a creature like this, and I would have thought that Kuma girl would deal with her, where is she by the way, did she die and you gain two new slave master?"

"Who are you calling a slave you midget Goth?!" Elina yell out with Sophia just ignore her with Branwen didn't question her at all as she remain bowing as Dilan took notice to what Sophia said as he look around in the distant and hear a faint sound of fighting as he look over in a direction and saw spark flying in the air as he knew it was trouble as he made up his mind so he changed up his plan a bit as he said, "Sophia, go over there and find Shizuka, and if she in trouble, help her while fight off the enemy. That is my command."

"Very well my lord, I will do so," Sophia said without question as her blood blade vanish from Dogura throat, and vanish in a swarm of bat, as Dilan looking over at Dogura and Branwen and said, "What to do with you?"

Dogura shakes in fear, while looking at the Dragon Knight unknown what will happen to him, with Dilan was more focus on Branwen and wonder what, was her story, but he would have to worry about that later as he got work to be done.

(Over at with Shizuka)

Irma, and Shizuka looked worn out with their clothing torn up leaving them almost strip of their clothing as they face against Kira, with Hachiel hover overhead watching the fight go down, and it was a 2 on 1 fight so she could not call a Queen's blade match as she follow the rules unlike Nanael who tried to set up a match.

The only thing Hachiel is afraid of is, if Kira beaten the two of them, she would kill them and go after her charge, but she is ready to defend the two warrior against Kira with her heavenly weapon ready to summon forth to fight against a supreme being, as they may do well against normal weapon, but heaven weapons are a different story.

"You two fought bravely, but I am afraid this fight must end, with you former Kuma ninja Shizuka you might survive this, but the assassin will not," Kira said as Irma said, "I won't fall to you, I refuse to do so until I get my vengeance."

"I doubt it you would get it even if you live, goodbye, Fang assassin," Kira said as she came at Irma and about to end her with a sword thrust into her chest, until a blood shield came forth and block the attack before getting push back as Sophia voice rang out as she spoken above, "Kira, member of "The Flames of Yshrenia" and right hand of Solaris, a pleasure to meet the enemy of my masters and mistress."

Kira look up and saw Sophia and said to her, "Sophia Bloodriver, the half breed vampire pet of the "Solider of Holy". If you're here, then that must mean Dilan isn't too far behind then, amazing he would call for his favorite loli here to fight." (She is small and has no boobs, but she is over hundreds of years old so she is safe)

"Of course, as you said already I'm his favorite," Sophia said as Dilan has call to her many time more than others beside Fey, as Sophia eyes open as her eyes show bloody red as she said, "As order of my master, I must fight you."

Kira soon dodges many blood spikes that came at her, as Kira didn't like this as much as dealing with someone like Sophia.

Kira knew enough about Sophia to know she was one of the strongest Floor Guardian's within HOLY's Fortress. It was no wonder many have tried and failed to make it as far as they had intended when not only the members but the NPC were top tiered fighters. Fey was the powerhouse and with Mordred and the Combat Maids said to be the last and final line of defense. But as Kira was about to go for the attack she felt a familiar ring go off in her head knowing it was the PM straight from Solaris himself.

"Kira report has Dogura made contact with the maidens and Dilan?" Solaris voice ringed in her head as she looked to them.

"One second I have to take this." Kira said as she responded. "Message Solaris." She responded as she then began to speak. "Yes he has should I move to aid him?" Kira asked walking around a bit.

"No leave him there the prototype he used was destroyed and further more I've already acquired what I needed from him. Rendezvous Point. It's time to see these Slave Arenas the Nobles seem fascinated about." Solaris said showing he had a plane in stored as no doubt it was to acquire the aid of Nobles or at least see what they have up their sleeves.

"What but brother I'm right here I can take them!" Kira argued but Solaris disagreed.

"Kira listen to me I have a long term plan and remember your still dealing with wounds dealt to you by Kaguya." Solaris said as Kira cursed knowing that Kaguya had done a real number on her before.

"Fine I understand." Kira said as she then sighed in defeat after hanging up. "The things I do for love." Kira said while she stretched her neck a bit. "Sorry ladies seems this duel will have to be continued at a later date." Kira said as she got ready to leave.

"And who says I'll let you leave Kira." Sophia said while she descended down.

"Let me ask you a better question... would you really risk taking on a Supreme Being like myself?" Kira asked knowing Sophia was smart and knew how to use that cunning against her. "Yes I'm injured but let me leave and I'll can give you a tidbit of information on the Queens Capital mainly this bitch." Kira said pointing a thumb over to Irina. "She's a spy for the Queen looking in on Lord Vance and a possible coup and also her group has been trying to spy on your group as well as mine." Kira said as Sophia heard this and smirked a bit.

"So you're saying we share a common enemy then." Sophia said as Kira knew where this was going.

"Yes but knowing you, you don't plan on me escaping either... but you made an error in judgement." Kira said as Sophia was now intrigued. "You didn't put up counter measures for my Knight." Kira said as she took out the Ark leaving Sophia wide eyed.

"NO!" Sophia roared out only for Kira to act.

"VERTO!" Kira called out and soon in a flash of light the Black Knight was in play as she flew to the sky avoiding Sophia's Blood based attacks. "Better luck next time loves." Kira called out before making her escape to meet up with Solaris.

"No." Sophia began as she fell to her knees... "My masters, my mistress, and my great creator how have I failed you I grew arrogant and forgot the most important part of such combat!?" Sophia cried out as Shizuka was surprised how hard this girl was taking failure... then again she was willing to shank a bitch for speaking ill of Dilan. "WAIT!" Sophia called out as it seems Irina was sneaking up behind Sophia or trying to escape before grabbing Irina by the neck. "I almost forgot you are a spy so if I deliver you to my Lord he will most undoubtedly forgive my mistake and failure." Sophia said showing her loyalty knew no bounds for the Supreme Being who she was graced to have remain amongst them as they others left their great Fortress.

Irina tried to fight but Sophia smirked at this. "Summon Household." Sophia invoked as soon her pets appeared mainly a large serpent like creature that wrapped itself around Irina restraining her. "No come along we best not keep Lord Dilan waiting." Sophia said as she began to take

(Scene Break Later)

Dilan was once more in his human form as he faced Branwen who as kneeling refusing to look Dilan in the eyes. It seemed like she was ready to weep as Sophia was holding Dogura in a choke hold as his mouth was gagged by one of his own ball gags... (Ooh the irony of it all). With them was Elina, Tomoe, and Shizuka all of which were in the same large tent set up by Elina's servants. Irina was nearby as Sophia had fed her a powerful truth serum she acquired from their information expert at the Fortress and in turn no matter how powerful potion resistance she had the serum made her spill her guts and sing like a cannery.

Needless to say Elina was insulted by such a thing but it seems Irina wanted to get close to Aldra for a purpose of her own. Luckily a word from Dilan allowed her to keep it to herself outside of one word 'revenge,' and thus she was here free to roam but under close surveillance. "You should all feel honored that I'd even consider allowing you into my tent. I only do this because we were attacked by the same foes and thus I owe you a small debt of compensation." Elina said but then Sophia appeared and smiled a sweet yet sadistic smile to Elina.

"Don't be so presumptuous Elina Vance you should feel honored my lord has even graced you with his most divine presence." Sophia said but Elina glared at her.

"Your lord?! I'll have you know the Vance name far surpasses that of a no named noble!" Elina countered but it seems Dilan decided to cut in.

"Both of you knock it off ok. Elina thank you for letting us use your Tent while we're here and I'm sorry about Sophia she's one of those loyal types who take it up to 9." Dilan said as Elina scoffed and backed up. "I can respect a name but you shouldn't rely on it so much Captain of the Guard." Dilan said as he smiled to Elina who then blushed and scoffed before looking away.

"Whatever just keep a better hold on your, servant." Elina said showing how much of a Tsunadere she was.

"Now Sophia once we get Branwen's story I will have some orders for you." Dilan said as Sophia nodded.

"Yes my lord." Sophia said as she kept her death grip on the Goblin.

"Now Branwen you don't seem like the evil sort so why align with Dogura here?" Dilan asked as Branwen refused to look to him.

"I... had no choice." She said almost afraid of Dilan but then he sighed a bit.

"Hey look at me." Dilan said gently lifting her chin to face him as she looked up to the hero who was smiling kindly to her. "Just tell me the story ok I won't see you in a bad light for it." Dilan said as Branwen nodded in response to this.

"Yes... it was many years ago." Branwen began as she told her tale. "My tribe had been given an oracle that one day the Red Dragon God would descend and choose his mate amongst the mortal woman of our tribe." Branwen began as she then moved her hair to show a hidden mark that looked like a branding akin to the Dragon Knight but the kind of branding one who was chosen would receive. "It was foretold I would be that chosen maiden so I was told that I must never lay with another or risk incurring the Gods wrath." Branwen told as Dilan listened intently and saw her begin to tear up. "And I kept to that vow of chastity until I and my Dragon Mount Usher were captured by these slavers." Branwen said as she began to tear up as it sounded like a black mail rape story.

"They took Usher and told me if I tried anything against them they'd kill him and then they proceeded to train me and break me in." She said as Dilan was wide eyed when he heard this. "Please forgive me Lord of Red Dragons if I am to die then please save Usher in my stead." Branwen begged to which Dilan's eyes were shadowed by his hair.

"Sophia." Dilan began getting Sophia's attention as Branwen feared the worst to come. "I want you to drink Dogura's blood down to the last drop. Learn everything he knows leave no mental stone unturned." Dilan said with a cold and powerful tone that made Sophia's loins wet.

"As you wish milord." Sophia said as she then took Dogura outside to have her meal. Thought the meal was bound to be putrid she would stomach it to destroy such a vile little piece of shit. Dogura screamed as he tried to get free but the minute he was outside... well we all know how vampires feed.

"Branwen." Dilan said as he then took off his cloak and wrapped it around Branwen surprising her. "What had happened to you was of no fault to your own." Dilan said playing the role of her God for the time being. "I promise you that you will be reunited with Usher and fly once more." Dilan said as Branwen began to grow teary eyed.

"But I am damaged." Branwen said but Dilan then smiled and put a hand on her head in a comforting way.

"Damaged or broken it matters not... you became stronger through your struggles and now it's time for you to be given the dues you deserve for this struggle." Dilan said showing the kindness of both his real self and the one he given his character.

"My God." Branwen said teary eyes but then Dilan smiled to her.

"Just call me Dilan ok." Dilan said as Branwen nodded to her mate/husband-to-be. Dilan then hugged her in a comforting manner as she began to tear up while he kept her close to him. Elina, Tomoe, and Shizuka stayed out of this as Shizuka and Tomoe saw a powerful man but one with a heart of pure gold. It was a wonder how the power he possesses had not corrupt him in anyway. Even Elina was surprised at how kind Dilan could be as she was reminded of her own sister Leina before she ran away again.

"Now then." Dilan began as once Branwen calmed down she looked to him. "Rest we have a job to do soon." Dilan said as it seemed everyone was in agreement.

(Later with Dilan and Sophia)

"Ok Sophia what do you have to report." Dilan asked as he looked to Sophia.

"YEs milord." Sophia began before regaling Dilan with the tales. "Mordred, Lucy Percival, and l had learned of a string of abductions on both woman of noble birth and warrior maidens." Sophia began to recount. "Thus we integrated ourselves into the scenario though I had remained to the shadows to observe things." Sophia began to recount as soon the story began.

(Flashback Days Prior Village)

"You call this a meal!?" Came the voice of Sophia the resident hybrid of both Vampire and Succubus of the Maiden Knights. Her Vampire power gave her a great deal in combat but her Succubus Power made her the perfect actress when both combine and in turn a mistress of Disguise. Here she was as she was at the Vance Estate disguised as a Noble with Mordred as her Butler. "It tastes like dog food!" Lucy called out as her blond hair was curly in a way fit for one of noble birth.

"My apologies ma'am." Mordred said playing his part as Lucy scoffed in response.

"Enough I do not wish to stay here a moment longer Mordred." Lucy ordered playing her part to which Mordred nodded.

"Understood milady." Mordred said as the Traitor Prince turned butler played his part well.

Lucy huffed and went over to their chauffer who was currently eating his food. "Zach!" Lucy called out as he caused the man to almost choke before turning to them revealing a scruffy looking face with a red nose like he had a 24/7 cold.

"Yes miss." He greeted as Lucy glared at him acting like the example of a spoiled brat of a rich girl.

"Stop stuffing your face and get the carriage I want this town at my back within the hour." Lucy ordered no doubt having already caused a scene as it was before making her way up the stairs. Once she did so and Zach took his leave to get the carriage Mordred turned to the other nobles enjoying their dinner.

"Please return to your meals ladies and gentlemen." Mordred said with a small bow before heading upstairs to meet with Lucy.

(Later upstairs Lucy's room)

Mordred stood before the door before he proceeded to knock on the door in a very gentleman like fashion. He then opened it being given the signal and saw Lucy standing there in wait taking a 160 in personality. "Excuse me miss." Mordred greeted before he closed the door and in turn Lucy bowed to him ever so submissively to her superior.

"I'm afraid I may have taken the performance too far. Please forgive father." Lucy said as she and the other Maiden Knights were not Mordred's actual children but their creators made them this way as they had Mordred find each of them as children an all but adopt them to make them to the successors to the Knights of the Round Table to hopefully redeem his own actions.

"No need to lower your head to me Lucy. I'm supposed to be your butler for as long as we continue this charade." Mordred said as Lucy then rose up again showing she had one of her eyes closed.

"Yes that is true Mordred however as a member the Maiden Knights I am your subordinate first and daughter second Master Mordred." Lucy said as she looked to her leader for this assignment. They were to learn of any possible quest they could take to better spread the name of the Soldiers of HOLY and in turn the leaders. This was a perfect place to do for them giving them many paths to victories to come.

"Well Lady Sophia is most certainly grown anxious to play her part in all of this, it's time to let her know the time has finally come." Mordred said as Sophia's task was simple. Take out the Slave hub to find a larger one and then meet with Dilan so he and his allies may destroy it. Mordred walked over to the suitcase and hoisted it over his shoulder with ease before he began to walk out but then stopped. "By the way is Zach performing as we expected?" Mordred asked as Lucy nodded before covering her left closed eye.

"Yes sir." She said while she began to focus with her magic on Zach's location. "As we speak he is meeting with a filthy man in a back alley. They are planning to attack us somewhere outside the city at some point and use me for all manner of unspeakable things." Lucy said as she knew exactly what they were. After all she gives artists inspiration in exchange for blood and sex. She of course new how these folks act and how to act as needed.

"I am happy to hear it everything is unfolding exactly as Lady Kaguya and Lord Aster predicted." Mordred said as those two were the one who came up with the plan after all.

"One more thing, father." Lucy said as she began to smile a bit. "I'd like to have that man once he is no longer useful." Lucy began as she had an idea of her own.

Mordred thought about it but was ok with it honestly. "It would be best to ask Lady Sophia first but I'm sure it would be fine." Mordred said as Lucy bowed to Mordred in response.

"Thank you very much." She responded while she bowed.

"And why are you so interested in him?" Mordred asked honestly curious about it.

"He thinks he will get to enjoy a piece of me. So I thought I'd let him have a taste. A little slice of heaven before he sees hell!" She called out as her eyes glowed a violet color and her fangs distended in response. "Furthermore we could use this to the Supreme beings Advantage after all saving a damsel in distress is the basics of adventurers and heroes." Lucy said as it seems she planned this out in her own way as well.

(Scene Break outside the City Carriage)

Zach drive the carriage to the outside of the city and to a more secluded area where no one will see, or hear a thing when traveling down the main roads.

As the let go of the rains for a moment to lift up his lantern and signal to the bandits ahead, while they responded back to him as well as Zach smile to this as he was ready to get his hands on Lucy once the carriage stops.

(Inside the carriage)

Sophia was sitting in the carriage with Lucy and Mordred, along with two pale women at her side, as they were her undead brides.

They were named by Aster, Kaguya, and Dilan as they seem like bride as they wore white dresses, and they weren't vampire as Sophia couldn't make them like that due to her being half vampire, but very strong ghouls, but it saying ghouls didn't fit well saying "Ghoul Bride" so they went with undead instead.

They were women that were abuse in life, change and gain power to take revenge and follow a better path that lead their undead life to a better light instead of darkness.

Sophia was filing her nails a bit as she spoken to the Mordred and Lucy and said, "Let me guess Mordred? Our unfortunate target took the bait."

"Yes, wonderfully," Mordred said as Sophia stop and blew on her nails a bit and said, "It's about time, with any luck we will find the Slaver hideaway and find the leader that will lead us to base where the others slave traders will be at to help please our lords and mistress, and I can return to my beloved lords Dilan side."

If I may milady there is something I wanted to ask you for some time now." Mordred said as it's been something bugging him for a long time and figured now was as good a time as any.

"Go on." Sophia said waiting to hear Mordred's question.

"It's quite apparent that you and Lady Yuna do not get along well I was wondering if there was a special reason for that." Mordred said as Sophia smiled playfully in response.

"I always thought we got along fine." Sophia said as she swung her nail file side to side. "There's no bad blood between the two of us I simply tease her because my creator Lord L0s3r_1s_y0u (Pronounced as Loser is you) decided that I should." Sophia said as she began to Delph into her explanation. "See that flat chested insect creator Lady Mamma-Mina is actually the sister of Lord L0s3r_1s_y0u." Sophia said as she recalled how she came across such information as Mordred was surprised by this.

"I never knew about this." Mordred said as Sophia in turn smiled in response.

"I happened to over hear my blessed creator talking about it with Lord Aster and Lord Dilan one evening." Sophia recounted the event and went about it.

(Flashback within the Flashback)

L0s3r_1s_y0u was heard sighing as he was with Dilan and Aster who looked to him with concern. "Is something wrong Ale?" Aster asked as he looked to the Dragon-Man with concern.

"Remember Mamma-Mina?" L0s3r_1s_y0u asked to his friends.

"Yeah." Dilan said as he wanted to know what was wrong.

"My sister is the new lead voice in the new H-Game I just bought." L0s3r_1s_y0u said as Aster made a cringing sound to that.

"Well Mamma-Mia is a popular Voice actress these days despite her... tastes." Aster confessed as he swore Mina needed to find herself a boyfriend or something.

"But trust me I think we both feel your pain man." Dilan said looking to L0s3r_1s_y0u no doubt the current Dilan was surprised Sophia had even heard this at the time.

"I was itching to hit it hard core to." L0s3r_1s_y0u said making an emote to signify his despair to this

"Yeah better save those tissues for another day." Dilan said as Aster had to agree.

"Just be glad you aren't Kira she'll gladly fuck her own brother if able." Aster said knowing Kira had some questionable fetish much like Mamma-Mina did.

(End Flashback within Flashback)

"What is a Voice Actor and Actress?" Mordred asked with curiosity in his tone.

"Apparently a Voice Actor or Actress in Lady Mamma-Mina's case have an incredibly important job. They imbue souls into beings that are otherwise soulless. To put it plainly they bring things to life as any decent God should." Sophia explained more than happy to speak words of praise of the Supreme Beings who once roamed their Fortress's hallowed halls.

"I see thank you for sharing all of that with us Lady Sophia. You honor us both." Mordred said as Lucy bowed to her superior and possible relative.

"Learning more about the Supreme Beings is truly humbling especially from you milady." Lucy said as they had the foresight to erect silencing charms in their carriage to ensure Zach did not learn of their true intentions.

Soon the Carriage came to a halt with the horses sounding off followed by banging on the door of the carriage. "Knock-Knock Girlie why don't you come outside we wanna play with you." A male voice was heard outside as the group saw this but were in no way worried about it. After all they were hoping for such a think after all.

(Outside)

The Carriage was surrounded at all angles by Bandits as Zach was with what was assumed to be the leader to the front as he had a sinister grin on his face. "So you'll let me have a go afterword's right? I mean I am the one who brought them here." Zach said showing he was not in the slightest worried about a spoiled rich noble girl.

They soon saw a shadow at the window as the bandit stepped back and from it the door began to open. But as Zach was expecting Lucy to show up instead he got Sophia who smiled at them in amusement knowing how to deal with them. "This aint yer lucky night sweetheart just go along with it and we won't take yer life, ok." The man upfront said as he began to reach out to Sophia's fake breasts with a laugh. "You do got a hell of a rack for a little girl." He said but then stopped all of a sudden. It almost sounded like a blade went through the air and sliced through flesh only for the bandits offending hand to fall off with his blood now under Sophia's control.

"As if I would allow you to defile me with your dirty hands." Sophia taunted before he saw his hand and in turn saw his blood spew out from where his right hand used to be.

"Oh god my hand what happened to my hand!?" He cried out in horror and pain as Sophia soon gained a bored expression.

"You bandits make far too much racket." Sophia said as she was not above killing humans who forced her hand. She then swiped her hand to the side and in turn the bandit in question's head fell off and in turn died while his body kept spewing out blood. She then jumped down to the horrified Bandits as they saw his blood flow into Sophia's blood ball over her head.

"A magic caster!?" A Bandit cried out as Zach ran to the back and the Bandits drew their weapons in response.

"This is already boring but I need information so do me a favor girls and clean up the rest of them. But be sure they are alive for me to feed off them orders are orders after all." Sophia said as soon her two Undead Brides got moving after appearing at either side of her.

The bandit attacks with the undead brides soon attacking all of them but Zach's himself as the men were being slaughtered, Zach backed away as he said, "But how, who the hell are these people?"

"Mr. Zach, over here," Lucy said as she appear behind Zach quickly as the carriage driver turn around facing Lucy, freaking out as he wonder how the hell did she get behind him already, but his fear vanish away as Lucy open up the front of her dress, showing her bare chest too him, with her nipples harden, as Zach could not turn away and just smile to this, thinking he is getting lucky unaware of the end result, as he reach out to her and grab her breast.

As the bandit try running away with them still being slaughtered, Zach stood there with Lucy giving him a small taste of heaven as he fondle her as Lucy said to him, "You like my body?"

"I do," Zach said as Lucy reach her hand up to his cheek and said, "You want to ravish me, tear my dress and rape me?"

"I do, I really-really do!" Zach said as he soon look into Lucy eyes with a look of lust turn he saw someone he just want to fuck regardless, as Lucy says, "Perfect then, your sin of lust it large and overflowing... unfortunately for you, all sin are due, and you will pay for it with your life."

Before Zach could say anything Lucy eyes change from blue to crimson red and fang appearing from her mouth like a vampire, and a pair of horns appear to the side of her head, as Zach look of lust change from a look of fear as he about to scream out until Lucy pull him in for a kiss with her fang pierce his lips as blood came forth from them, and red vain appeared around his face as it seem it was more than just his blood being drain from him.

Zach hear turn gray before turning to white, his skin turn from smooth to wrinkle and then pale, with his body seem to be drying up as his entire being was being suck dry of everything.

Sophia saw this and said about this, "It seem Lucy is getting herself a feed."

"Dealing with the nature of being born of a vampire and succubus, it just a matter of when a man reach his peak of lust, she will steal there life energy, along drinking his blood, all from a kiss," Mordred said as he known Lucy enough when he raise her along with the others, with the Supreme beings giving him the possession of Godfather to all the maids.

Soon Lucy lets go of Zach, letting his body drop back, showing his shrivel up form, dead and soulless now as Lucy wipe her lips a bit with a handkerchief as Sophia said as she saw all the men dead as she been gathering up their blood for her collection and said, "it seem we waste our time by getting nothing out of this."

As Sophia felt like she fail her mission until one of the undead brides came along with the remain of one man as there was blood at her mouth as it seem she been feasting on one of the dead man's head and said, "Lady Sophia, I ate the mind of this one and found these men's hide away nest, and among them seem to be a man who is their leader that may know of what we are seeking."

"Very good, Lord Dilan will be proud, let us make our way there and find this leader to give us what we want," Sophia said with Mordred said to her, "We better be cautious, we don't know of Solaris or his floor guardian has already join and ally together with these bandits."

"Luckily I was sent forth and my orders were to simply gather information a blood bath will not be needed." Sophia said as Mordred then stood before Sophia with a look of duty.

"Unfortunately Lucy and I must part ways with you here for we have a mission to collect any information we can for Lady Kaguya and help spread their names for our leaders and acquired information on possible tasks to further their names." Mordred said before he then bowed down respectfully to Sophia before he and Lucy took their leave.

Not long after Mordred and Lucy took their leave this time with Mordred driving the carriage as Sophia and her brides saw this. "May we meet again in, the Great Fortress of Heroes." Sophia said before taking her leave.

(End Flashback)

"So I'm guessing the Slave Nest is no more." Dilan said knowing how Sophia works when involving certain evil folks.

"Yes milord I now have the location of their main trade spot I assume you have a plan of entrance?" Sophia asked as Dilan then smirked to this.

"Yeah... we're going to walk in the front door and they'll let us in no problem." Dilan said confusing Sophia about this.

(Later with the girls)

"What?" Elina asked as Dilan told her the same thing.

"Listen Elina you're a noble and since apparently this place caters to the wealthy you can get in no problem but we need to blend in somehow and I have a few ways to do so." Dilan said as Tomoe and Shizuka didn't like where this was going.

"We will be going in disguise, pretending to be nobles and slaves." Irina said as Branwen was wide eyed to this in response.

"Obviously I had acquired their 'invitations,' of entry at another location and since I managed to keep some for myself to study I can give one to myself, Dilan, and Elina. Dogura was well known so all I must do is make a copy of him and control him from afar." Sophia said as soon her blood ball formed out and formed into a fake Dogura.

"This way no one will know he is expired." Both Sophia and the fake said at the same time with the same voice.

"But this will be a risky move." Tomoe said as Dilan nodded.

"Yeah and to blend in... we need slaves." Dilan said as soon all eyes fell on Tomoe, Irina, and Shizuka.

"What?" Shizuka asked confused as to why the eyes were on them.

"You want us to pretend to be slaves to get you in and in turn tear the place apart from inside." Branwen said as Dilan nodded.

"Yes from Dogura's memories your Dragon Mount was locked up there to basically hide him right under your nose." Sophia said as it seems it was well guarded. "From the looks of it they made him into a spectacle for some nobles... how insulting." Sophia said as she felt bad for the dragon drugged up and gawked at like some zoo animal.

"If we are to do this then we will need disguises." Elina said as she looked about the group but then Dilan spoke up.

"And I got them... but we need to be smart so to help blend in we divide and conquer. Irina you will be acting as Elina's slave hopefully we can come to an agreement after that." Dilan said as Elina glared at the assassin and spy but knew where Dilan was coming from since Irina used to follow her orders.

"Sophia you can solo but have one of your household members control the fake Dogura you and Branwen will be helping with a diversion and information relay." Dilan ordered as Sophia smiled and bowed to her lord. "Tomoe and Shizuka you two will be with me and since Tomoe isn't in for fighting Shizuka you will be acting as the Gladiator Slave and Tomoe you will be the pleasure Slave." Dilan said as the two went wide eyed at that. "And in turn we'll all need a change of clothing." Dilan said before Hachiel butted in.

"But how may I assist?" she asked as Dilan looked to her but then had an idea.

"Hachiel you can tag with Sophia just try and hide the wings." Dilan said as he then turned to Elina. "How trustworthy are your guards?" Dilan asked as Elina saw what Dilan planned to do.

"I had hand selected them myself I'm to assume you will have a use of them as my guard detail?" Elina asked as Dilan nodded to this.

"Yes we can use this Dogura basically invited us to witness this even personally due to our resources and the fact we 'donate,' to his games. So we will act as an Entourage and gain entrance. We will most likely be made to wear masks both for the fact it's a party in a sense and a means to keep possible hidden foes from picking us out." Dilan said as Elina saw he planned ahead.

"Once in Shizuka and Branwen will be entered to fight and cause a diversion for us and prolong the fight keep the crowd interested and such." Dilan said as he then looked over to Tomoe, Irina, and Elina. "While this happens Sophia will also be keeping the crowd entertained on the fight and also gather information for us. Since Dogura is known to be close to Branwen when she fights to 'punish,' her for mistakes Sophia can control the fake from close by." Dilan said as he wasn't much of a thinker but knew how to go with the flow. "Tomoe, Irina, and Elina you three will help me locate the Dragon once we squeeze away from the crowd but we need to be fast about it." Dilan said as Elina scoffed a bit.

"Very well then." Elina agreed as they had to act fast or lose the element of surprise.

"Now then let's gather up the camp and start preparing." Dilan said as he then opened a small portal to his inventory and presented boxes with the disguises in them and passes them over to the fake slaves to be. When the two Hinomoto girls opened the box they were in shock at what they saw and even blushing while Irina just gave a bored look to it.

(Scene Break Hours Later)

The event was normally held at night thus they had to move then and there. When Elian explained it to her guards as it was a slight detour they followed without question. So here they were arriving at a large estate far enough that no one would seek it yet close enough to still have the image of nobility being close to its common folk. The estate was large but just for show as the Carriage drove up to the front gates and opened up.

The first to come out was the fake Dogura and Branwen looking like they had before but were then followed by Elina dressed in an elegant evening dress wearing a masquerade mask that hid her identity well. Coming from behind her was Irina in a Venus outfit he had acquired during the Dead or Alive Collaboration event. Yeah don't ask him he just liked the game and well he modified it a bit as it had a dagger holster and what appeared to allow Irina to double as a pleasure and gladiator slave since the crystals on the Suit were enchanted and magical.

Following her up was Sophia as it seems she put Hachiel to good use by making her a 'enslaved angel,' as she was stripped of most her clothing save for a lowing cloth and what appeared to be heart shaped shields on her nipples. She had an added collar and leash that Sophia was holding onto. Sophia was dressed in one of her finer dresses of pure white with a hat as she even had her own mask much like Elina's.

Finally Dilan came out as he was holding a collar and looked to the door with an apologetic look. Soon he made a small snap with his free hand and in turn Shizuka walked out in a different outfit. Shizuka was dressed in armor over her shoulder and heads that protected those parts quiet well but her torso was exposed save for two shields shaped like hearts on her breasts. They were modified as it was designed originally as part of a quest to rescue a captured mother/knight who had her children abducted from her when she was captured. Back to the design she had a cloth of sorts around her waist that didn't hid her thong as the only other piece of armor she had was where the cloth met at her crotch and rear as well as the ones on her legs that went up to the front of her knees.

'Dammit the things I do around here.' Shizuka asked as she tried to keep in control feeling the wind blow against her bare skin.

Finally with a tug to the collar Shizuka saw the blushing Tomoe come out wearing a collar around her neck. With it she had animal ears upon her head, and ass plug for a tail that had a dog tail to match both hair and ears and finally for any hope of decency she was wearing pasties upon her nipples and crotch.

Tomoe was blushing as they walked to the guard each playing their part as the followed after the fake Dogura that was created by Sophia who had Branwen's leash so to speak.

Upon reaching the front gate as the Fake Dogura saw Sophia coming up as he said to her, "You first my Queen, he-he."

"Why thank you," Sophia said as she smile while walk up without saying a words as Hachiel follow her, trying to keep herself from acting embarrass the best she can as she want to help with anything she can, while Sophia held up her Invitation.

"Everything looks like in order, Welcome Lady Sophia," the first guard said as he let her on it with her angel slave, and look behind her to see who were coming up next as they smile as the first guard said, "Master trainer Dogura, how is your evening."

"Same as yesterday, as it was thrilling, I've gotten a few new slave for the collection, Still trying to break them in, but that is fun of it as I enjoy it," the Fake Dogura said as the Guards nodded as the 2nd guard said, "Glad to hear, as I can assume they could be ready for events later on?"

"Of course what do you take me for, a wanna-a-be trainer?!" Fake Dogura said to them as Branwen keep her harden look up as she knew out to act around Dogura, as the she knew the one beside her isn't the real one, but looking just like him and acting as him to, just make it easy for her to remember all the things he put her through.

"Now let me on through, I have a match to prepare," Fake Dogura said as the guards nodded and let him on through as they side step as the first guard said, "Of course, you may go on in."

The fake Dogura and Branwen went on through as Elina and Irma came up as the guards step back into place as they held out a hand to her and said, "Invitation?"

"Is that what you say to all of your guest? How rude, I may have my Invitation, but I will not show it to the like of you guard dogs, unless you show the kind of respect I'm looking for, if not then I'll stick my little toy upon you two!" Elina said as she play a slave owner well with Irma knew what she was going for as she slowly reach for her daggers without another word as the guards seem worry about this as the 2nd guard said, "I'm sorry about my associate, he forgets sometimes. Please show your invitation, milady."

Elina smile to this as she held out her Invitation out as shown a blue cards with a cloth around it with a small chain holding it in place as the guards saw this and nodded as they move aside and said, "Welcome."

"Better," Elina said as Irma let off her dagger as she and Elina walk on through with Dilan with his two "Slaves" while holding up his Invitation already as he said, "My Invitation if you please check for yourselves."

The first guard look at it and nodded and said, "Its real, go on in, and welcome."

Dilan nodded as he pull the leashes and said, "Come along you two, I don't like waiting."

"Yes master," both Shizuka and Tomoe said as they walk in with Dilan as the guards smile to this as the second guard said, "He seem to know his stuff."

"No kidding, look at those two, they must be from the other place I believe it's called Hinomoto, as I heard there are other amazing great looking women there, lucky bastard," the first guard said being jealous of Dilan's ladies collection.

(Inside)

Everyone came in and saw the place was huge, and see a big area in the ground, a good size area to have a match in with people standing around it against guard rails while they enjoy a glass of wine and booze

With Dilan look around and saw "Dogura" ahead as he smile and give himself a nod as it was time for the 2nd part of the plan as he put up finger to his ear and message Sophia as he said, "Alright Sophia, I'll go meet with your "Dogura" and help set up a match with him, I believe you know what to do?"

"Of course my master, I can make him say anything I want him to say," Sophia said as Dilan nodded said to her, "Good, then make it believe able, and don't worry about any insults, just think of it as roll playing game, and I love good insults."

Sophia understood as much she didn't want to, she will follow Dilan orders, as the dragon knight walks on up as "Dogura" as he look to the girls and said to them, "How are you two holding up?"

"Been better, as I lot to be open, but not like this," Shizuka said as she had things on her nipples and she feeling a bit weird by this with Tomoe still blushing and said, "It's hard to withstand this task. The ear I can accept, the outfit I can overlook, but this… thing up my… my rear, it's too much, I don't know how long I can take it."

"Just take it easy Tomoe, think better thoughts, as I will make it up to you after this quest, I will grant you to anything you wish for within my power to do for your reward after this," Dilan said to her with Tomoe try thinking of something and to her imagination overdrive as she imagen Dilan shirtless with a cloud like mist covering his lower half looking 'Handsome'.

Tomoe just shake that thought out of her head quickly as she felt her nipples were getting hard already, and keep calm and said, "I'll try my best then."

"Alright then, we're just about there, be calm and don't talk," Dilan said as they keep walking up to the Fake Dogura, as he's talking with a few people as he said to them, "Look pal, its ether you wait till after the fight when its gets set up or you don't at all, as I told you and everyone else before, no fun before a match, I can have this bitch worn out."

"Excuse me Dogura sir," Dilan said as Fake Dogura turn to him and said, "Who are you and what do you want fresh meat?"

"Sorry for not introducing myself, I am "Hanzo Saito" the 2nd and I believe you are the ones to talk to about the match fight?" Dilan said as Fake Dogura said to him, "So what if I am?"

"I like to make a proposal to you, it's nothing big but I wish to make arrangement of a fight between my warrior against yours, to help form a special partnership as I believe you will enjoy if you accept," Dilan said as the Fake Dogura said, "Interesting, but what's in it for me?"

"Other than money, I have plenty to offer and to give, as such, a supply of drug that will help make a slave be more obedient, if you're interested, I am willingly to give to a small supply of it to try out, that is if you can agree to our deal," Dilan said as he put up a good act as some people was looking at him, being shock of what they were hearing with the fake Dogura gives an thinking look before he give a smile and said, "You have yourself a deal."

The two shake on it, at the pit area with lights shining down in it as the show seems to be starting very soon.

"Well then shall we see our lovely fighters off?" Dilan asked as the Fake Dogura looked surprised.

"What you don't go into battle with her?" Fake Dogura asked as Dilan scoffed to him in response.

"Why should I endanger myself from a stray attack, further more I trust my servant to handle the tasks I command of her isn't that right?" Dilan asked as Shizuka nodded in response as her breasts bounced a bit to it.

"I see then very well hope you enjoy the show." Dogura said as they began to guide their slaves to the arena as Dilan kept a firm grip on the leash to Tomoe who was being made to walk on all fours. Luckily her training as a warrior priestess made her very sturdy even if she was being made to walk on her knees while keeping her legs high.

Luckily the drawn on whisker marks kept her blush hidden as they left as Dilan knew the act would come to an end soon.

(Up at the VIP Section)

Solaris was with Kira who stood next to him as he observed the events take place. He was here to take part in the Nobles little game as he had sent Dogura off to die. He cared little for the Dragon but it would be his chance to see if a Dragon or Dragon Warrior on Gainos could tell the difference between a real dragon and a fake dragon. Hence why he had the Netherwyrm guarding Usher not only due to its near impenetrable shell but the fact the beast was a walking plague. Added the modification he had made to it mainly empowering it made this beast the perfect weapon for his cause.

"Well Count Vance I'm happy you could arrive." Solaris said as Count Vance had a seat as well. Solaris had met with the other nobles already and he cared little for their aid in his cause save for resources. Right now save for Gainos and Hinomoto he was aware of other countries and continents each with powerful combatants of their own.

"Of course though I find your invitation troubling after the initial meeting." The count said as Solaris observed the event.

"Yes well I was hoping you had given my offer thought considering the might of the Queen herself once you get through her army." Solaris said as Count Vance knew what he was talking about. So far he had yet to find the village and fortress in his lands that Solaris had informed him of. An alliance would allow them to locate the hidden place but Count Vance also had other things to worry about.

"I'm sorry but I must decline the offer... if either of us were to fail then we'd both fail at once." Count Vance said using logic to reject his help. After all if Count Vance forces are weakened without Claudette forcing him to try and locate a replacement for her which was difficult in its own right. "Furthermore I doubt my forces can provide much aid to you." Count Vance said as Solaris chuckled to this in response.

"It is of no bother I Assure you." Solaris said assuring Count Vance he was not offended by the rejection. "I see the logic you use better to conserve what you have until you are back to full strength." Solaris said in a tone suggesting he was speaking to an old friend.

"Thank you." Count Vance said as they observed the event play out before them.

(In the lockers)

Shizuka was ready for combat as she had a long sword given to her for this while Branwen saw this before Dilan looked to both of them. "Remember keep the battle going as long as possible and keep the crowd entertained... when it's time to move you'll know." Dilan spoke as he looked to them. "We need to be precise on this so don't take unneeded risk... and remember if the battle includes a few monsters as well use it to your advantage." Dilan ordered as the two understood.

The battle would be simple... attack each other by fake it as well and make it look good all the same.

(Later in the Ring)

Light shined down on the ring as Shizuka and Branwen took the stage with the Sophia controlled Dogura holding Branwen's leash and Shizuka wearing what appeared to be a magical shock/control collar. Nearby Dilan simply observed holding a controller in his hand as once the battle began he would carefully slip away. See what no one knew was that Dilan had called in one more NPC to aid them in this who had hidden in plain sight... He was a shapeshifted of the Doppelganger Race. See Dilan had created him when Geonet was still active and at the time of his conception Dilan modeled him after JoJo's Bizarre Adventure to be both a master of disguise and also when not in disguise to be over the top. When they saw him Aster and Kaguya didn't like him but Dilan loved him all the same. In fact this Dilan wasn't even Dilan but the NPC in question named Tom Freeman who he had named after his two most favorite actors in Show Biz.

Dilan had taken a seat in the viewing area with Sophia rubbing up to him and Irina kneeling down in a submissive pose. On the other side was Tomoe with a glass of wine being balanced on, her head as she acted the role. Truth was these three were fakes Sophia had created to help their charade. Now that their roles were covered they can move a bit more freely once out of sight.

(With the Party)

Dilan used re-equipped to done his armor once more as he pulled out his spear and swung it for battle. Tomoe moaned a bit as she removed the anal beads until Sophia just yanked them out causing her to cry out in pleasure but had her mouth covered in response. Irina and Tomoe were currently nude as Elina was changing to her combat gear. "Here take these I know it's not much but it's all we have." Dilan said while he passed over armor to the two nude girls. To Irma he gave her the Bai-Hau Armor set and to Tomoe he gave her the Fire-Dragon Robes Set as the do began to done them.

"I know they look a lot alike but considering your combat styles I had to give what I had seeing as your other gear would attract too much attention." Dilan said as he looked to the duo who were dressing up.

"We understand." Tomoe said as Dilan had other thoughts on this.

'Also this will give me a chance to see if those outside of Geonet can done our gear and considering you need to be a high level to wear these sets it's only fair we see if they are strong enough." Dilan's aid as the level for these armor sets were 60 or 70. Mind you the level cap was based on Guild Rank and both after past updates were made higher to help deal with players asking for more.

The girls try them on as suddenly when they "Equip them" Tomoe expression change from uncomfortable to cozy as she said out loud, "Oh my, this Robes are most soft and smooth, and it's so light."

"Mine feels great, a little heavier than what I am use to wearing but it shouldn't affect me as much," Irma said as Dilan smile and said, "Try drawing your weapon and give it a good slash."

Irma wonder what he meant, but she did what he asked as she quickly drew a weapon and she felt a stronger as she calls as small force pushing out from her slash, being surprise by this as Irma said, "What are these and where did you get these?"

"Here and there, and what you have on is a medium armor, it a little heavy but and it slow down you ground speed, but it give a good enchantment in given attack speed and strength to help balance it out," Dilan said as he turns to Tomoe and said, "Yours Tomoe, is light weight, but help protect you against most fire spells and skill dealing with fire, with a enhance defense enchantment."

Dilan had the fire dragon robe from when he played White Knight Chronicles 1, it was fire proof, and holds up good against attack, its weak against heavy attack but Tomoe is fast on her feet to avoid, with Irma will help her take on many enemies at once in case she get surrounded or gang up on.

"Now let's find this dragon and get him out of here as long Branwen and Shizuka keep fighting to entertain the crowd, I advise we hurry," Dilan said as the two girls nodded as Elina was already looking around and try to catch up with her.

(The fight ring)

Lights were moving all around the ring pit with everyone has gather, wearing their mask to hid their faces, as they chatted and talk, waiting for the fight to begin, as suddenly a bell was heard, as the lights shifted around before stopping on a man that was in the center of the ring holding onto a rope with a foot hook at the bottom of it as he seem to have been lower into the pit as he clear his throat a bit before speaking loudly for all the to hear.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am glad to announce the match you have been waiting for has come, as in on this side, your greatest warrior has come for your entertainment, as Dogura has brought you the dragon mistress, the gladiator warrior, the one and only Branwen!" a man announce as a light shine down upon the fake Dogura who stood by Branwen, as she stood ready with her sword and shield ready to fight as the crowd went wild for her as she been a favorite it seem.

Branwen took calming breath, steady herself and wait patiently as she believe Dilan can save her dragon, but she must hold out for time, and it wasn't going to be easy for her as she is use to fighting to win any match with the fake Dogura acted, "Be sure to give it a good show, and remember don't screw up."

Branwen nodded as she understand the situation she in, as the magical tattoos of Dogura ownership on her vanish, Dilan suggested a cover up with his own binding spell, as the chain are there just not the same ones, but Branwen can accept that, as she believe she already belong to him and keep it as such, it was the marking on her ass cheek they could not copy and she wears leather skirt to hide Dilan mark.

"Here today we have a special guest who help set up this match, Hanzo Saito the 2nd," the man said as light came rolling over to Tom in disguise as Dilan who was wearing a mask and wearing a suit like Dilan was wearing, as people applaud him to help set up the match.

As the other side, Mr. Saito slave warrior has come, fighting for the first time here, as she a warrior that came from the eastern lands of the rising sun, as she is the mistress of shadows, the killer of the night, I give you Shizuka!" the man said as light went over onto Shizuka as she squinted her eyes a bit letting them adjust to the lights shining on her as the man in the center of the ring said, "Let's keep this fight simple, first one to be knock out or lose their life, the other shall be declare the winner."

Shizuka took a breath herself as flex her fingers with the weapon she had in her hand, as it was like her Kodachi or chain sickle, but she had work with worst things before to fight with if she didn't have her normal weapons, but she is kind of glad Branwen would try to hold back for her as she can, even if she gets knocks down it would be down to the Fake "Dogura" to command Branwen to hold off to put off the crowd thinking he want to saver the fight a bit, as well the shock collar would give a small shock to her from the fake Dilan as well.

"Both warrior come to the center ring area!" as the man announce as Branwen and Shizuka walk up to the inner circle in the ring before stopping just barely in it as the man said to them in a low tone, "Only one will be declare the winner, so good luck to you both, and don't kill each other as fast."

The man was soon lifted out of the ring as he yell out to everyone, "Let the match… begin!"

Shizuka and Branwen raise their weapon as they ran towards each other, as they give their best battle cry before their weapon clash with each other.

(Dilan)

As the Dilan and the three girls looked around the building for a cage area or a dungeon where they would be keeping Asher, with Dilan using detect life spell, it wasn't great long range, but it help him see any guard that could be around the corner as he saw two coming up, he ready his spear before the two guards turn the corner, Dilan rush them fast before they knew what hit them, which was the back end of the spear to their heads.

"Better hide these guys," Dilan said as he put his spear on his back, and gran the two guards, dragging them away around the corner and drop them off somewhere and went on his search.

(Elina)

The Vance girl walk the halls of the huge mansion and wonder if there was a way to know how to get around better as suddenly a guard called out saying, "Halt!"

Elina stop in her track as she turn around to see a guard with a spear weapon in hand, walking up to her as he said, "This isn't a place for guest, please return to the ballroom."

Elina had a thought as she quickly went into her noble mood as she said "I would if I knew where I was going, this place is so big I can tell where your restroom is at, and I need to find one to freshen up for a private meet with someone. If I don't find one I will go crazy! Now tell me is this the direction of the restroom or is it not?!"

The guard sweat drop to that as he said, "Ah… well not that the storage area where we keep the… flesh trade, the restroom are down this hallway and down on the left."

Elina smile to as she said to the guard, "Thank you, now would you mind lead me there, I don't want anyone getting nearby as I freshen up."

The guard was confuse about this but he gives and turn down the hall as he said, "Al-alright fine, just follow me and we can-

*Wack!

The guard was strike at his neck before collapsing down knock out with Elina had her arm raised as she said, "I would never be led by a dog like you. Worthless garbage."

Elina look to the spear the guard had and pick it up and test it and felt the balance a bit off, but she said, "It will do for now, but I prefer mine."

Dilan had ask her to give her spear to him so he could store it and give it back later, but he didn't say how he would give it back and so Elina improvised for the moment.

With Elina toss the guard in a room before locking it and went on her way towards this "Flesh trade".

(Tomoe)

Tomoe wasn't like Shizuka when dealing with stealth, but she manage with her speed and size, and hide behind places to avoid guards, as she search each hall and every room as she can and so far she found guest bedrooms, closets, a supply room of sort, and a room with many strange thing she found as she saw chains, black whips, gag balls, and black masks, and to the smell of the room, Tomoe quickly left it and try to forget about it.

Tomoe soon came up to a different hallway as it was darken than the normal ones and there were guards standing about at a door, keep a close watch over thing as the warrior priestess can only guess that room could be the area she need to go to as she quickly rush at the guards, as they heard her and saw her soon enough coming at them as one of the guards said, "Halt Trespasser!"

Tomoe didn't halt her movement as she drew her sword, and flip it to the back side and strike at the guards quickly, knocking them out fast as Tomoe soon sheath her sword as she said, "That is taken care of, but what is behind this door?"

Tomoe open the door and to her surprise, she found... a torture room with many female were hang against the wall, others tied to a post with shafts up their womanhood's and their backroom area, and what seem to be a wheel of pain a girl was strap down to as she was slowly being stretched out, as Tomoe look in horror to this, and notice a sweet and seem to be alluring smell, Tomoe cover her face not to breath in the stuff as she quickly look around for the source and found a pot over a fire letting an out a pink fumes.

Tomoe quickly destroy it and let the room air out, as the woman seem out of it, no telling out long each of them been in that room as Tomoe said, "How awful, why would anyone do this?"

There was no answer as Tomoe look around and saw another door and can guess where that door would lead to as she walk up to it and open the door showing a stair case going downwards that was lit by candle lights.

(Dilan)

As Dilan explored the halls he was lucky to have Sophia provide him a map from Dogura who from what Dilan had saw had given her the runs. Little piece of shit that Goblin was in Dilan's eyes and in turn Sophia's. He made sure to keep hidden as best he could before hearing movement. Dilan then ran over to some cover and hid behind the wall as he heard two guards walking.

"Geeze doesn't that thing ever sleep or eat?" A guard asked as he was wearing a mask akin to the sparrow like masks. Those sort of masks are commonly used to help doctors shield themselves from being stricken by the plague during the dark ages.

"Nope just fights and infects." The ally said as he walked by carrying a lamp.

"Still ironic a Dragon holding a dragon prisoner. If that Branwen slut ever got loose she wouldn't be able to fight." The first one spoke as Dilan paid attention closely to it. "Too bad she won't even realize it's not a real dragon." He continued to taunt as Dilan smirked a bit at the information... but then it occurred to him.

A beast that appears to be a dragon but is not of the Dragons kin. It fights and infects without end like a living plague or blight upon the land. Dilan knew exactly what this was and had hoped it was not such a monster. Of course this simply makes things much harder than he had hoped and right now Dilan was on his own since Aster and Kaguya were going to meet up with him at the Blacksmiths home closes to Ymir's home in the Silver Mountains.

Once the Guards passed by Dilan stayed hidden until they were far beyond hearing range before he spoke out a bit. "If it is the Netherwyrm… then we are in trouble." Dilan said knowing the direction they came from may be torts the place Usher is being kept at. Dilan then got moving knowing if he didn't hurry Usher may end up crippled and if not and the girls got there first they have no immunity to the plague this ancient war machine brings forth upon the battlefield and to the cities it flies over.

Hey had to hurry less they find themselves in a quest with only few survivors after and Dilan was a Leader of the Soldier of HOLY and his Guild would not be tarnished by defeat in this or any lifetime.

(Meanwhile With Irina)

Irina was going over everything within the mansion, the guards, the Guests, their slaves, and pets, as she gotten a log book and shows all the deals that was done around, even the trades as she saw what some of them were and… she was sicken to the core of seeing it.

Slavers, bandits, even bounty hunters goings around finding new slaves from small villages, and some of these slaves were also small children, as she sees the names and ages too, it was too much to see, but she keep looking at the pages and soon came across some information, as she mark down the page, before put it away as to show it to Dilan afterword's to maybe have a good use for it.

Irina soon pull out what seem to be a bomb like device as she remember what Dilan said to her along with everyone else.

(Flashback)

"Finding Asher is important to this mission, but we need to also stop the slave trading and this fight club they seem to do, as if it keep going on, there no telling how much damage these people can do in the future, and I have an idea of how to do it," Dilan said as he snap his fingers and a bag of sort appeared with some stuff inside of it as he shows the items to everyone and said, "These are specially made explosives that are on a timer, just a twist of this all the way and get out of the area before they go off, as we have different objectives we get them done and set these up and take out any evident of us being there and send a signal to me."

(End flashback)

Irina gotten what she nodded and she look for a good place to hide it, seeing a huge vase, she walk up to it and turn the timer before dropping the bomb into the vase and getting out of there fast.

With the bomb itself, the timer had a 15 minute count down on it to show how much time before it goes "boom".

(Tomoe)

Tomoe saw what she seen down below the stairs and to her horror, she saw many bodies, girls who did not survive the tortures they were put through as some of them had a look of sadness to them, some of them of lust before they died, and other an expression of horror as with Tomoe cover her face to this, she could not take this.

"I am sorry for this," She said as she pull out her bomb and set the timer before dropping it, as she hope a fire funeral would make the dead rest in peace, as she went back upstairs and free the slaves before it blows.

(Elina)

Elian check the area where the guard stop her from going and came to a room with a few guard standing by, but took care of them with ease, but when she look inside the room, to her surprise, she saw the room filled with men as around them there were girls wearing skimpy outfit, dancing before them within cages, and to her disgust, she saw the a lot of the men were also banging the dancer, hearing them cry out in pain.

Elina soon heard one man yell out, "Come on bitch, I am the Baron Luthnots vassal of the Vance family. So hurry up and suck me!"

Elina eyes widen to this as she knew that name well enough as she meet a Luthnots at the party and he was a disgusting man, and he was one of the few selective her father suggest to have Leina married to.

To hear this, a man her father knew was a part of this trade, she try not to image Leina within the same kind of outfit the other girls were wearing as the man try to take her by force making her his pet. Elina could already imagine the cries of her beloved elder sister.

As Elina look around and saw the man wasn't the only one from the party she saw in the room as there were a few selection as she her hand tighten on her weapon as she wanted to end this party that was going on, as she saw ropes that held chandeliers above, and gotten an idea.

Elina look through the guards personal and grab a set of keys before walking in and swing the spear in her hands at the ropes, cutting them and let first few fall down causing a ruckus that scared some of the so called "Gentlemen", and she wasn't done.

There was others Chandeliers ropes within the room as she rush over to them with all the men looking at the ones that have fallen already and cut the ropes, letting them fall scaring more of the men and some of the ladies, with some were under a few of them, but ran out of the way before it fell on top of them and soon enough make all the men run out, not wanting to get hurt.

Elina was glad she was a part of Dilan plan to take this slave trade down, as with all the slave around, she knew they weren't happy with their situation as she step up to the stage as she called out, "To all those who do not wish to be a slave no more! Listen up!

All the girls went silent as they look up to Elina as she said to them, "These People have taken you from your family, your friends, your brothers, sister, mothers and fathers. They have cause every one of you pain as it is, and I am here to tell you enough is enough."

Elian toss the keys out to a small group of girl who were confuse by this as Elina said to them, "Free yourselves and take up arms, take revenge upon the people who did this to you! And those who are too cowardly to fight, then runaway and never look back otherwise you will be just back, but there nothing to fear as the traders will be brought down tonight!"

Elian raise the spear up, as the girls as they cheer out as they took the keys and started freeing themselves, as well a few of them arming themselves with weapons from the guards, and some items that could be used as weapon like chains that held them, the leg of a table, and a chair.

As some guard soon came running in and saw what was going on and to their horrors, their "flesh trade" were free and they were angry as they look to the guards and soon charge at them as they scream out in horror as the slaves are rising up now with Elina as their leader as she yell out, "Charge!"

The girls went out and attack any guard they come across and take their weapon and armor adding more to their power. As Elina took her bomb and set it before throwing it in the room, at a set of pillars that would cause some good damage.

(Dilan)

Dilan was running down the hall where he had noted the guards came from. But he then heard footsteps before spinning his spear a bit and just as he was about to take down any guards after him is spear was met with Elina who was caught off guard by the attack. Next Irina came in as did Tomoe as it was clear they're paths all lead them here.

"Sorry about that." Dilan apologized pulling his spear back from Elina.

"I'll... I'll forgive you this time I simply surprised you was all." Elina said as Dilan nodded to her before looking to the others.

"Well anything?" Dilan asked as they each gave their reports.

"I had set my explosive up." Tomoe spoke before Irina nodded and continued.

"I managed to retrieve information on this place. Information we could use to shut it down." Irina spoke calmly before Elina added more.

"I managed to rally the other slaves to battle and even disarmed the guards while they made their escape from this nightmare house." Elina said to which Dilan nodded.

"Ok then I managed to locate Usher but we hit a snag with it." Dilan spoke getting their attention. "He's guarded by an ancient weapon in the form of a dragon that's body produces a plague like miasma. We need to destroy it before we can get to the real dragon." Dilan said as they all heard this. "Unfortunately the weapon we currently possess cannot harm such a creature save for one that I have on my person." Dilan said as he looked to his allies here. "You three will need something to protect yourselves this miasma is a powerful one, one whiff of it could prove to be fatal." Dilan explained to them causing the girls to look torts each other.

"I'll go the rest of the way alone... it's powerful but I can't risk you three getting hurt." Dilan said but Elina then stopped him from moving.

"Don't think for a moment you will be allowed to go about this alone." Elina said as she glared at Dilan.

"Yes you have aided Shizuka and me time and time again. It is only fair and honorable that I go aid you." Tomoe said as Irina nodded in agreement with both Tomoe and Elina.

"Very well then but first here." Dilan said as he then pulled out what appeared to be masks from his person. "Put these on them should give you some defense against the miasma." Dilan said as the three nodded and put on the helmets to shield themselves from the poison. His sight then fell to Elina who saw the look in his eyes.

"Elina... you consider yourself a noble by blood correct?" Dilan asked as Elina nodded to this.

"Of course." Elina responded as Dilan nodded.

"And the people whom you rule over... would you raise your spear for them in their time of need?" Dilan asked further as Elina was confused. "As their leader would you lay down your very life so they may be protected and well off even at the cost of your own fortunes and life?" Dilan asked as he had just the weapon to use but he needed to be sure of Elina's intentions.

"I... of course it's the duty of a noble to do right by their people." Elina said as she may have held her tongue on it... but she had seen her father's method of acquiring an army to overthrow the queen. She went along with it because she wanted Leina to be the Queen and since Leina ran away and Claudette was missing she feared that her father may cause the Vance family to burn.

"Ok then." Dilan said before he raised his hand to the side. Then a bright flash of light was seen before something formed inside it. Then a spear or a lance was formed and from it Dilan took it in both hands and presented it to Elina. "This is the Divine Lance Wyrmbuke." He said presenting the weapon to Elina as she saw it give off a holy light. "With this weapon we can destroy the dragon keeping Usher prisoner." Dilan said as he had the plan. "I, Tomoe, and Irina will try to give you an opening... use this spear to run the Netherwyrm through." Dilan ordered to which Elina nodded.

She hesitantly reached her hand to the spear. But in the end she took the weapon in hand and felt the rush of power go through her very being. The Lance it was as if it was truly as the name implies a gift from the heavens to the hero who would wield it in battle.

Dilan could also see why Aster had taken a liking to Leina… because right now it was the same for him and Elina maybe she was worthy of more than just the Wyrmbuke. But right now they had a job to do and one that must be completed. "Come on." Dilan said as it was time to move and take down the Netherwyrm.

As the 4 person party enter in the dungeon like area where Usher was being keep at, with everyone have their masks on and weapon out and ready to battle.

Upon reaching a huge set of doors with no guards guarding it for reason Dilan understood as there was no need for them at this point, as he came up to them and raise his Spear and "Carve" at the doors, cutting them and knocking them down "like a Boss".

With the girls notice right away a fowl stench, that even the mask could not block out with Dilan know what that smell is, and it was rotting meat and corpses, as he saw all around body of dead guards that seem to have gotten to close to the beast.

As they walk in to their fear of what they saw, a purple scaled beast, with wings similar to Dilan Dragon knight form, and its legs seem more like birds legs but with scale on them and huge beastly claws on them.

Dilan saw the Netherwyrm, he knew Solaris was behind it somehow as it seem modified as well to what he sees, but behind it he saw another beast, smaller and weak compare to the Netherwyrm, and chain up to a wall like any slavers would do to a Nobel beast, to Dilan guest, it was Usher, the dragon they were looking for as it seem he was surrounded by the poison fumes keeping it weak as Dilan said, "Keep your distant from me and out of the Netherwyrm site while you free Usher, if he catch site of you, he might go after you."

"We'll keep out distant apart, but we will support you if unless needed," Tomoe said to him as the others agree, with Elina glaring at Tomoe as she said something first, as she wanted to say something before anyone but lost the chance as she mutters, "Damn you commoner."

Dilan took the lead as he walk in, and if he can guess what will happen next, with aggressive creatures they will automatically attack anyone that enter in their view of site, unless it consider those as allies, as he came up to the Netherwyrm view, it suddenly roar at him as the purple mist from its body flows out.

"Come and face me beast! I Dilan the dragon Knight challenge you!" Dilan called out gaining Usher attention as he turns to Dilan and smell a familiar sent on him from his cage as he whispered, "Branwen."

The Netherwyrm charge at me Dilan as he charge at it as well with "Holy Dragon Fang" raise, he theorize it can help weaken the beast enough with it as he felt the Dragon Fang power flowing through him as well as if it wanted to fight as well.

The two side clashes against each other, with the Netherwyrm strike down at Dilan with its claws, but he parry it away with a slash of his spear, before went in for a powerful thrust pushing the beast back away from the cage more as the girls saw the opening they need, holding their mask on closely enough so the purple mist doesn't affect them.

Irma went to the lock of the cage as she pull out a dagger, she stab into the lock, breaking the case, as she quickly ran her hand into it and pull back on the bar that keep the cage locked, and soon opens it, with Tomoe coming up to the Dragon fast and cut through its chains.

The chains fell from Usher's body with the collar that was around its neck destroy as well as Tomoe look to Usher and said to it hoping it could understand her, "Noble dragon, we have come to save you on the behalf of Branwen."

Usher is surprise by this as he nods understanding her well enough as Irma said, "We may have to wait a second, the beast it still near us, as if we leave now, we could become its targets."

As true the Netherwyrm was still close as it attack Dilan, snapping its jaws at him while Dilan back flips away as he said, "Great, this beast is as big as a Gigas but it's not weak as one, maybe a league above a legendary one."

The Netherwyrm came in for another attack until it was blinded sided by an attack from Elina to the side of it, causing great damage by the holy spear Wyrmbuke.

It cry in pain before turning its attention upon Elina and attack her with Dilan came in and knock its claw away before slashing at it near its eyes, causing some pain to make it back away with Dilan said to Elina, "What are you doing? Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

"What do you think I was doing, I waited for an opening and took it?! Elina said as Dilan groin at this as he said, "The way you did it, you could have gotten yourself hurt or worst, killed, and I will not have that fall upon my mind with you Elina."

Elina blink to that as what she hear was unexpected as she gain a blush to her face and turn away with a frown on her face in a Tsunadere way as she said, "I don't need you worrying for me, and beside I thought you said this spear was supposed to kill it?"

"It will if it hit an important organ likes its heart or brain, but its heart is too well protected, it has more armor on it's under belly than anywhere else. Aim for its head as the armor is thinner there! Hits its brain, then it will be kill it," Dilan said to her with Elina eyes widen to that as she would have to get in the beast face to do that.

"You want me to aim for that spot, are you crazy?!" Elina said as the Netherwyrm recover from Dilan attack and charge at them again with Dilan said, "There no other choice, now stay out of the way until I say so."

As Dilan came charging in at it again, but this time Netherwyrm was a little smarter as it smack him with its tail, sending him across the room, as Elina was shock by this as now she look towards the beast as it look down at her, as she back away a little bit in fear, but she held up the Lance as she said, "I will not bow down to a creature like you, filthy beast!"

The Netherwyrm just roar at her for that insult as it understand her well enough it came at her, as Elina use her training and skill to dodge its claws and counter attack as she slash at its claws making it back away from her.

Dilan recover a bit as he gotten up and saw Elina facing the beast alone and to his surprise she was pretty good, not a great, but skilled enough to handle mid to high level players if she ever face them in weapon combat, while Dilan saw the Netherwyrm tail was coming at her, he was about to call out until he saw Elina use the spear to Pole vaulted over it fast as the beast hit nothing but air, as Dilan was jaw drop to this as he saw Elina landed on her feet, like a cat and with a sexy stands as she did.

"Damn," Dilan said as he never expected that to happen, as Elina said, "I am stronger than I look, don you forget it."

"Okay, I won't," Dilan said as Elina made a point and saw there was great potential for her to join the guild like her sister has.

The Netherwyrm attack again, Elina leap over its claw before ducking under its jaws as it try to take a bite out of her, stabbing it in its throat area, making it back away in pain with Elina roll back quickly to avoid its claws coming down where she was at, and gotten to her feet quickly as she look towards the Netherwyrm and waited for its to lower its head to hide where it was hurt like any other beast would do to Elina knowledge.

As it did, Elian dig her heels in the ground as she ran at the beast full speed and give a battle cry before leaping up in the air with the lance pointing downwards as she aim for its head like Dilan said to do as she aim between its eyes as she stabs it while landing on it as the attack it, but it did not pierce through.

Elina cry out as the Netherwyrm started jerking its head around as she yells, "Its Skull is too thick!"

Elina soon went flying back as the Netherwyrm flung her off its head as she scream out as she flew towards the wall, Dilan voice called out as a light shine from behind, "Verto!"

*Insert White Knight Chronicles OST: Crimson Pterosaur

Once the light died down Elina was caught in the hand of the Dragon Knight as she groaned a bit before seeing the Trident Wielding Warrior. "Stay close and hold tight." Dilan ordered as he put Elina on his shoulder to which she nodded and held on tight.

The Beast roared out and flapped its wings creating a powerful gust of Wind but the Dragon Knight held its ground before glaring at the foe. Soon with a flap of his own wings the Dragon Knight dashed forth at the Netherwyrm before beginning the attack. He spun his trident and hit it head on as the NetherWyrm blocked the attack with its teeth. But the Dragon Knight used the momentum to kick it in the face knocking it back. He wasn't don't as he then jumped up and slammed the trident down on it causing it damage.

The Dragon roared out showing it wasn't down just yet as the miasma floating around it was prominent. Dilan glared at it from his armor before he charged in with his Dragon Knight. He began to push the Netherwyrm to the far wall as he then glance to his allies. They knew what to do and quickly began acting as they moved to release Usher from his binds. The Netherwyrm got ready to fire an attack from its jaw as Elina saw something about it.

If it was well protected from the Wyrmbuke from the outside... what about the inside. But before the Netherwyrm could attack the Dragon Knight head-butt it and gave himself an opening to snap its jaw close before the attack could launch. In doing so the attack caused the Netherwyrm damage from the inside as it was clearly an explosive attack.

When this happened the Netherwyrm released smoke from its mouth that mixed with the poisonous gas serrating from his body showing the attack went off inside it. But the False Dragon growled as it glared at the Dragon Knight with slit eyes showing it was not down for the count and got ready to attack once more. It then charged and tackled the Dragon Knight and pinned it. It then went to chomp down on him only for Dilan to use the Knights Trident's shaft to keep the bite off him.

Then with a burst of strength the Dragon Knight roared out and pushed the Netherwyrm off it before grabbing its face. He then forced it off him and tossed him aside as the entire battle was no doubt causing a commotion in this estate. Once he did this the Dragon Knight looked at the Netherwyrm trying to figure out how to beat it.

"Dilan!" Elina called out as the Dragon Knight looked to his shoulder and saw Elina there.

"Get it to open its mouth now!" Elina ordered as she looked to him. "If we can't hurt it from the outside then we'll do it from the inside." Elina urged as Dilan saw the plan.

"So I guess we're going at it like Harry Potter." Dilan said remembering that bit from the book when Harry stabbed the Basilisk through the head from the inside. Elina ignored the Harry Potter comment but got ready none the less. The Netherwyrm flew up a bit and began to charge its attack again as it began to open its mouth. "Oh no you don't!" Dilan called out before he charged in once more.

He was then in the Netherwyrm's face after joining it in the air before he began to try bring it down. He then got a good grip and began spinning around creating momentum. He then proceeded to slam the Netherwyrm down before restraining it. Once he got the beast to the ground and held its mouth open he then looked to Elina who saw the opening. "Elina do it now!" Dilan ordered as Elina nodded to this.

*End OST

Elina then roared out and stabbed into its jaw right at the roof of it and to her amazement she saw the Wyrmbuke come out the top of the skull with a liquid on it that was clearly not blood possible cooling fluids of some sort. When she did this the Netherwyrm roared in fury and pain before the Wyrmbuke created a bright glow. Soon in a great bust of light and power the area was showered in a blinding light. But in the end when it died down the Miasma was gone and with it the Netherwyrm. The Wyrmbuke floated there for a moment by means of magic before it fell to the ground stabbing into it. Elina then hopped down from Dilan's shoulder just before he reverted as everyone gathered around the Wyrmbuke. Elina took the lance in her hand and looked upon it and saw it did its job and destroyed the Netherwyrm.

Soon stomping was heard before looking over to Usher who had been freed from its chains. He then stretched a bit before roaring out a powerful roar free at long last. While he roared fire was released from his mouth showing he was at long last free to fly with Branwen once more before looking to the group.

"Come on we don't have time we need to move now." Dilan said as Usher looked confused.

"How come?" Usher asked a bit groggy but still able to fly.

Soon an explosion in the distance followed by the sound of panic was heard as Dilan saw this. "That's why." Dilan responded knowing they had to leave right here and right now.

(Back at the Arena)

When the explosion was heard Shizuka and Branwen knew it was time to act as they then lowered their weapons and smirked. As everyone panicked others saw the way Branwen and Shizuka lowered their weapons before from some of the stands the fake Dilan jumped down and transformed into Tom Freeman. Following him was Sophia and the fake Elina, Tomoe, and Irina. Once they landed the three fakes transformed into her Ghoul Brides and with her Dogura liquefied into a pool of blood and rejoined Sophia as she smirked to this.

"Hello you vile corrupt Nobles. I do hope you had enjoyed the show tonight but now we must put your game to rest... for good." Sophia said as she grinned a bit with her mouth becoming rows of fangs.

"Now in the name of my great and powerful creator!" Tom began as he spread his arms out as it seems he was wearing a Naval Suit with a large overcoat draped around his shoulders acting as a cape. "The amazing the unbeatable and magnificent Lord Dilan." He said spinning around a bit acting way over the top. "I am grateful to say you will all suffer an end most deserving for those such as you!" Tom called out and struck a pose that was possible straight out of JoJo's Bizarre Adventures.

(With Count Vance, Solaris, and Kira)

The trio saw this event play out as Solaris saw this. "It would be best to make an escape for now." Solaris said as Kira heard this and saw him wave his hand to a maid Aria Yami. "Aria be a dear and escort Count Vance to his carriage." Solaris said as she bowed and began to walk away in response.

"Thank you." Count Vance said as he took his leave of here with his combat maid Aria guiding him to safety.

Once he was gone Kira growled as she saw their foes were right there waiting for them. "Seriously their right there Solaris why can't we deal with them now?!" Kira demanded as Solaris looked and sighed.

"Think about it... if our foes intend to be heroes to hopefully locate other Geonet players here then it's only fair we be their foil to help locate others as well." Solaris explained as he sat on his throne here while Kira looked a bit confused. "Unlike most... I know I cannot be the only chosen one here." Solaris said noting that it was impossible for them to have come here by themselves.

(Back to the Group)

Sophia, Shizuka, and Branwen began fighting their way through the oncoming guards to regroup with the others. Tom of course didn't do much fighting but when he did he showed why he was the one who protected the Guild-Halls vaults and treasury. They were making quick work of the oncoming guards as Branwen put the ball and chain to good use by having it smash down the foes about her.

"Ha!" Shizuka cut a guard down with ease with her weapon before throwing some kunai's out at ones at a distant to break up the bigger groups as she said, "I got 25."

"Raaah!" Branwen went as she swing her ball and chain as a weapon hitting into one guard which knock him back into more guards, while she quickly block a sword strike with her shield before countering with a powerful strike down to him as she called out, "22."

A guard came up behind her with a spear as she quickly turn around deflecting it while cutting off the guards head and taking the spear at the same time, as he turn and throw it towards a small group of guard that were bunched up and nail one right through while pricing two more behind the guy before Branwen said, "26 now."

"How sad," Sophia said as a few guard came up from behind as she didn't need to turn around as a blade of blood cut right through them both as they give a cry of death as she said, "I'm at 37 including 14 more my undead brides have killed."

Hearing a death cry in the background with an undead bride dropping a dead body down to the ground near Sophia as she said, "Correction 15."

Suddenly there was a cry or a yell as some guards came flying by her as she blinks to that and turn to see who did that and saw Tom being surrounded by guards, for than a three dozen of them with at least a few on the ground already with one guard yell out saying, "Come on its just one guy, and he looks weaker than those bitches, take him!"

As all the guards came charging at Tom with spears and swords out as they all try to stab at him at once until suddenly they were all block Tom arms which he transform them into huge pair of arms with armor on them as Tom said, "Your attack were Muda(translation: Useless )… Muda- MUDA- MUDA- MUDA! I SHALL PUNISH YOU ALL FOR ATTACKING A FLOOR GUARDIAN SUCH AS ME!"

Suddenly a flurry of punches were thrown all around as guards left and right were being hit, and flying back with holes or dent looking blows in their body.

"ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA! ORA!" Tom said as he punch every guard that came near him and finish high on the last punch with Tome yelling out, "COME ON YOU DAMN PIGS SO I CAN PUNCH YOU TILL YOUR GRANDCHILDERN FEELS THEM!"

"Ah, I don't think they can even have children anymore sense they are dead," Shizuka said as she pointed them out as the guard he punch out weren't even breathing anymore as Tom look at this before he bow down on his hands and knees and bang his fist on the ground and said, "SON OF A BITCH!"

Sophia look to her master creative NPC as she can only say, "He sort of dumb, but he so powerful, I can give my master that at least."

There was a suddenly cry of guards as the slaves that were freed by Elina and Tomoe join the fray as they beat up guards, taken their weapons as well and stick it through them and in them, with slave girl sticking a dagger up a guards rear end as they face the screen, with the guard screaming out like a girl before dropping dead.

The man who was announcing the fight before was standing high in a Balcony as it seem he is the owner of the mansion as he was sweating to the blood bath he was seeing and from a few girls he thought were just slaves, a strange creature, and a monster looking girl with her pets as he saw them as, and all the slaves that were supposed to be locked up.

"Everyone is being slaughter, at this rate there won't be any more man power left! Release those monstrous beast, promise them they can have many girls as they want as their toy, just slaughter those freak and recapture all the other slaves," a man said with another guard said to him, "But if we do that then-

"Just do it or we would all die, as we cannot allow these bastard ruin everything we have made! We can rebuild it all but not without those slaves!" the man said as the guardsman was freak out by this but nodded to his boss as he went over to a set of telephones on the wall, coming up the far end one and said something through it.

[It's a "cup and string" kind of telephone in an old house but more of a pipe and cone style, before electricity or electronic devices]

(Elsewhere)

Another guard that was standing by the connecting Telephone as he heard the order as he said to him, "Y-yes sir, I will do so."

The guard step away and turn around looking at the cages as he gulped as he came up to them with keys in hands as the creatures around give a thrilling laugh, or a deep growl as the guard held up the keys.

(Back to the battle)

As it seem the battle was over with few guard remaining as Shizuka said, "This is quite easy."

"Yes, but I feel it should have been more of a challenge," Branwen said as Sophia said, "Just kill them and we can all be on our way and meet up with Master Dilan."

Suddenly there was a cry from some of the slave girls as the group turn and saw a small force of Orc and red looking goblin like creatures coming out from one of the halls as the Orc had clubs in hands, they swing them at some of the slave girls knocking them back, and picking up other before ripping off their clothes, getting ready for some fun with the look of lust In their eyes.

The red Goblins leap up onto girls, clawing at them and shredding their clothing and cutting their skin too, while pinning some of the slave girls down.

"HOLY SHIT!" Tom yell out to the scene they saw before them as Sophia frown and look in disgust as she said, "They keep such filthy beasts here as well for whatever reason?"

"They are creatures that get send into the arena for female warriors to fight, as if they don't win, they will take you," Branwen said as her hands tighten as her memories caught up to her of her past events as the sounds of fighting, and creature huffing with the sound of a female screaming out in pain.

With group seem to be distracted by the new foes that came out of the wood work, the guards took this chance to run as they try, but they all got cut down by Sophia blood blades before they could get out of there, as their blood added to her collection

"With that taken care of, as can have loose threads around, but those beasts, they will be trouble if we let them do as they wish," Sophia said as the other agree with her as Branwen said, "They will kill or rape all the slave if we let them live."

"Well then, let's kill them all," Shizuka said with Sophia said, "Yes, and burn this place to the ground, I may have like this place, but even I can tell this place has been ruin by the lust of the humans and these creatures."

"I'LL KILL EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE BASTARD, IN THE NAME OF JUSTICE!" Tom said as he charge in and went "ORA-ORA-ORA!" on all the ones that were about to rape the slave girls with Shizuka, Branwen, Sophia, and her undead brides join the fight killing all the creatures around.

Shizuka doing some ninja style flash step movement cutting and slashing many beast around, with Sophia using some of her blood to kill some of the creatures, a few of the red goblin like creatures came leaping at her with their tongue out and crazy look in their eyes, with Sophia swipe her hands across with huge nails are shown on her hand as she said, "Only Lord Dilan is allow to touch me."

The Red Goblins in turn fell down with their blood spewing out before Sophia smirked to them. They began to attack Sophia who allowed her blood blades to handle them as she began to yawn before proceeding to give her fingernails a manicure. Every time a Goblin came at her they were swatted like flies as she had the blades multiply to handle multiple foes at once. The Ghoul Bride then loyally got on all fours and allowed Sophia to use her as a seat. Mind you she was from noble birth so she liked having servants tend to her hand and feet.

Soon the second Ghoul Bride charged at the Goblins with their nails elongated into a blade like form. She then sliced their heads off with ease showing they meant business. It was clear that Branwen and Shizuka may not need to fight and to Sophia they were just tourists. Sophia then blew on her nails and inspected them to make sure they were to her expectations caring little for the blood bath going on.

Soon Sophia sighed as Shizuka and Branwen were wide eyed when they saw large trolls walk into the area. From the looks of it they were rearing to go after being let out but it Tom and Sophia they were annoyances. "Tom, Shizuka, and Branwen can you be dears and deal with them since I just got my nails the way I like them?" Sophia asked as Shizuka's eye twitched a bit at Sophia. On one hand she was very powerful in combat dealing with most of the work by herself. On the other hand her condescending attitude was getting on her nerves.

"WRRYYYYY!" Tom was heard as a Troll fell down dead when he jumped to its head and punched it clean off. He wasn't done as he then used that same head to hit another after kicking it to the other Troll.

Shizuka and Branwen charged at the other Troll as Branwen kicked up the ball and chain and smashed it into the head of the Troll who lost a few teeth for it. Shizuka then proceeded to slice its eyes off before it could attack causing it to roar in pain before she slit its throat causing it to grab said injury and falling over from it.

"Let's do this, how you say, Dragon Girl!" Tom said using Janglish as he struck a pose and pointed his fingers at the foes.

Branwen of course ignored him and charged straight in with her sword drawn ready for combat as she spun it around taking multiple foes out at once. She wasn't done as she then spun the sword and stabbed at a Goblin behind her before using the ball and chain to hit a Trolls ankle causing it to cry out in pain as it fell down and grabbed the injury in question. It was clear Branwen knew what she was doing as she jumped up and stabbed another Troll in the eye showing a certain savage rage to her movement.

It was clear she did not have a good time here as she was exacting payback long overdue in her honest opinion. The Trolls glared at her as Branwen glared back almost growling like a feral animal ready to kill anything that comes at her. She then charged in once more and with her Bronze Sword sliced through the ankle of another Troll before using the chain and ball to crush the nuts of another.

Soon a lot of the Trolls, orcs, and the imps soon ran, as they saw they were losing the battle against superior warriors as Tom said to them taking Jotaro stand as he ran his finger across his hat, "It's no use trying to, as its time to pay for your sins!"

As everyone was ready to charge after those who ran, suddenly, a roar was heard as the troll and orcs were send flying back with a huge mace ball came flying back towards them with blood on the spikes, with the imps came running back as well as something was coming with the mace ball was soon drag back where it came from.

The group look towards the big doorway, as the halls down the way were darken, and soon a new beast came forth, a tall creature that was bigger than the orcs and a bit taller to the Trolls was walking into the room, darken blue skin, a single horn on its head as well a single eye too.

Branwen eyes widen to the creature that was coming forth as she saw the creature had one arm, as its other arm was converge into a weapon of sort that had a spike ball mace attach to a cone.

"Interesting," Sophia said as she saw the creature, as she hasn't seen anything like it before, as up in the balcony where Solaris stood as he look down at the scene as he look in curious at this, as Aria and Kira has taken Count Vance out of the chaos that was occurring, he stayed and watch as event plays out, as he was impressed with the newly creature down below as its wasn't like the ones in Geonet, but ones from Greek stories from Earth, a Cyclopes and a well "Armed" one too, and watch of how things play out.

The slave girls back away from the Cyclopes as it look to all of them with its single eye, before scanning over to the "Soldier of Holy" as it soon landed on Branwen and give a grin.

Branwen held her sword tighter as Sophia took notice of this as she turn to the dragon warrior and asked her, "You know this beast Dragon maiden? It seem he knows you by the look he's giving you."

Branwen frown at this as she held up her weapon again as she didn't say a words but in her mind as she looked to it and thought, 'the beast that broke me!'

Branwen mind flashes to her early time in the righting ring, against other warriors, and normal monster to kill, until she was pin together towards a Cyclopes to fight and lost for the first time as she ran out and said, "That's one mine!"

"Hey wait!" Shizuka said trying to stop her only for Sophia said, "Don't bother, she call to fight it so let her."

"But" Shizuka said as she is worry about the whole thing as that monster wasn't normal looking and to her skill she may barely able to survive against it, but with Branwen skill set is a different story.

(Mini flashback)

"AH!" Branwen scream out as she flew across the ground, with her sword snap in half, and her shield shattered, as a ball and chain is shown, being reeled in slowly back towards the Cyclopes as it smile for its victory, he walk over to Branwen about to take his prize, as he drag her over to some imps that were in the ring as well as Branwen was powerless to stop them of what they were about to do as they remove their cloth and showing their little monster cock to her.

To Branwen horror as the Cyclopes just watch as the imps leap at her while she scream out.

(End mini flashback)

Branwen wasn't the same after that… and she won't make the same mistake twice, as she charge in while giving a battle cry, she swing her sword at the Cyclopes, while the creature block it with his arm and shove her back.

Branwen landed on her foot and use the leverage force to try swinging her ball and chain at the creature, only for him to grab the ball with ease and swing her around with it before thrown across the room.

"HOLY SHIT! That thing is very powerful the woman could get hurt!" Tom said as he took a stands acting like he was in fear as Sophia scuff at this and said, "So what? That beast doesn't come to our Level, if that woman want to fight it, then she better not lose and disappoint Lord Dilan."

"Isn't that a bit harsh?" Shizuka asked with Sophia clean her nail up a bit more as she said, "Maybe, but don't care one bit if she weak, unless she beat that thing, I won't bother giving her attention."

Over to Branwen as she gotten up with the Cyclopes coming at her fast as he raise his metal arm and swing down, with Branwen roll away just in time before the mace weapon hit her and quickly counter with a slash from her weapon, hitting its arm, but no effect to it.

The Cyclopes grin as he swing its arm towards Branwen, knocking her back hard as she cry out to that, as she try to recover from the attack and aw the Cyclopes was coming after her again, with a look on its face, as it seem its having a good time as he swing his arm weapon at her again as Branwen duck under it, using her shield to push the weapon away as it skid across it.

"I won't lose again… I refuse to lose and be weak to my lord!" Branwen said as she stood up and thrust her sword at the Cyclopes arm again as she been aiming for a spot on its arm as she hit the joint spot, the Cyclopes cry out to that as Branwen drove it deeper in and pull out fast causing blood to come forth from it as the cyclopes back away fast as it put a hands to its arm.

The imps around saw this and try to back up the boss until a few spray of blood blade came forth and cut through them with Shizuka throwing ninja stars at the others, killing a good bit of them as Sophia said, "I don't mind fights, but fighting one on many it's simply too much for me to look away."

"I thought you said you didn't care," Shizuka said with Sophia smile and said, "I said I don't care for the weak, but if she becomes strong for Lord Dilan, then she deserve my respect."

Shizuka smile to this as she would have thought the half vampire was all cold heated, but she may have been looking at a half empty glass instead of the half full, as the two went on killing the imps for Branwen to fight against the Cyclopes on even grounds.

The Cyclopes swing its arm the best it can using its other arm to do is as Branwen, dodge the attack with ease, as she said, "I remember all of your attack from last time, and finally saw your weak spot. You're not incredible, you're all muscle and no brains."

The Cyclopes roar out to that, piss to what Branwen said, as it did something that was unimaginable, as it reach out to its arm and pull off mace ball as a cable line follow it, with the beast took it and spin it around as it prepared to attack Branwen, while she head her sword and shield ready for round 2.

The Cyclopes throw the ball towards the dragon warrior, she dodge it fast, as it was soon pull back and spin around again with the beast wanting to kill Branwen down instead of humiliate her again as it throw the mace ball again, Branwen stop just moment before it, as she leap back dodging the impacted force of it and ran towards the Cyclopes and held her sword in both hands as she leaps toward the beast and give her best battle cry as she raise her blade up, and soon stab the beast in its neck.

The Cyclopes roar out in pain to that as it thrash around before Grabbing Branwen off of his with her sword in it before throwing her at the ground hard as Branwen cry out to this when she hits the ground hard while kicking up dust.

Branwen felt hurt, and sore, as she hasn't fought this hard in a while, as she felt heavy near her, she saw the Cyclops beast over her, as it look down at her with a piss off look, as its raise its mace ball again, swinging it around and around, making the swing stronger than before as it seem he was planning on killing Branwen, she closed her eyes and thought to herself, "I'm sorry Usher, please forgive me.'

AS the Cyclopes was about to crush Branwen its weapon, suddenly a force blow out behind the Cyclopes as the flooring came up in the air with a red blur came forth before-

*Step!

Branwen waited for the end to come… but felt nothing, as she open her eyes and look to see a huge claw foot, and under it a bloody puddle form as the voice of Dilan said as he lifted his foot a bit, "Did I step on someone or something?"

Branwen look up and saw the dragon knight before her, as she look and said, "Lord Dilan."

"Branwen, good to see you, good thing I found you, thanks to the guild ring I gave you beforehand," Dilan said as on Branwen hand was a ring on her ring finger, as it seem eh use that to locate her and find her quickly as he said to her, "I have a surprise for you Branwen, I hope you like it."

Flying out behind the dragon knight, Usher came forth and flew to the side and landed near Branwen as she saw her dragon again, tears came to her eyes and said, "Usher?"

"Branwen, my rider," Usher said as Branwen gotten to her feet and walk over to her dragon, as they are now reunited, as Dilan smile within the armor to see Branwen smile as she look beautiful as she did with Sophia came running up and said, "Lord Dilan, I'm glad you are back, but I don't see those 3 women, tell me did they die in battle and sadden to such thing you might need comfort from it?"

Everyone but usher and Branwen sweat-drop to Sophia question including Tom as he has no respond to this one as Dilan look to her and said, "No they did Sophia, They are just taking the express way."

Dilan turn around with Elina, Irma, and Tomoe were hanging onto Dilan's back side as they were held onto Dilan in a safe place so they didn't get hurt by the flooring when coming up as they let go as Tomoe said, "I Thank you, Master Dilan, for our safe travel up here again."

"Never again," Elina said as she looked a bit terrified by the ride up with Irma not as effected but a bit shaken up.

(Solaris)

Solaris keep watch from above as he said, "Not bad dragon knight, not bad at all, but you have done a great favor for me so I suppose I'll leave the rest to you."

Solaris walk away without being notice by Dilan or his group as Solaris cast as spell as he said, "Greater Teleportation!"

Vanish in a blink of an eye, as he leave and set plan for future conquering as he has what he needs, it's just a matter of how he will do it.

(With the group)

Branwen let off hugging Usher as she just petted his nose area as she turn towards Dilan and said to him, "So what now my Lord,"

Dilan look around the place seeing all the dead bodies of guards and the beast the use to fight slave warriors, as well breeding with the slave girls as he said, "We need to bring this place down, leave remains to remind those who dare make people into slave to never do so again, and shut down all the rest when the time comes."

Sophia bow down to that as she said to him as she said to him, "How shall we do so lord Dilan?"

Dilan look to her and thought of it as he wonder how to bring down the entire mansion as he had a thought and said, "Set explosives around, we're going to blow the shit out of this place."

(Scene break outside)

*insert badass music

With Dilan walking away from the mansion with his group and newly added companion of Usher the dragon, and the group of slave girls following their new leader.

With Dilan put on a pair of sunglasses over his eyes to make him look like a cool guy before he raise a raise his finger and cast a small simple spell as he snap his finger.

As the mansion windows glow red before they shattered with flames that came forth, before the whole mansion exploded turning it into a huge bond fire, as the slave girls stop in fright and look back at it, Dilan and his group did not as they keep walking forward with the fire and flames to their backs as Dilan said, "It's a good day to be a badass."

"And a sexy one as that," Sophia said to herself as she heard what her lord said, with Branwen didn't care what was going to happen, Usher didn't mind, Irma seem to be use to such thing, Tomoe keep calm as she walk forward with Shizuka smile to what just happen, and Elina… well she acted like any noble person would act, with her guards following along to the side and just keep looking forward.

"Great balls of fire!" Tom yell out as he was suddenly found himself on fire for some reason, as he roll around like a moron before standing up and taking a stand as he said, "I'm okay!"

No one pay attention to him and just try to ignore him mostly as they keep walking on.

(Time skip)

After the eventful night everyone had, with the slave girls having no place to go as they all lost their homes and families, with Dilan came up with a plan as he knew would help solve their problem, and help him out as well as he lead everyone down a dirt path with many rocky hills around to cover them from anything if there are people looking for them.

"Lord Dilan, may I ask, where are we heading off too, we been traveling a long way sense last night," Tomoe said with Dilan keep looking ahead and said, "We're almost there Tomoe, as soon when we reach the place I'm looking for, we can all rest soon after."

"And what is your looking for?" Irma asked as she looked around and knew of this area, as it seem Dilan was leading the group in the middle of nowhere and heading towards a dangerous area with all sort of creatures that are more deadlier than the ones in the mansion.

"And we're here," Dilan said, as it came into view, as the group soon came up to the edge of a large Canyon area, as the huge desert bowl stretch on for miles and miles with nothing in site as Shizuka asked, "Ah, where is this place you were talking about, there nothing out here."

Dilan held up his hand as he said, "Just wait and see, as you will see something truly amazing, as you will understand why me and my friends are called supreme beings."

Dilan then took out what looked to be a deed of sorts which confused the girls as even Elina wondered what fool would want this place for land. But Tomoe, Hachiel, and Sophia all knew better as did Tom. There was runic marks on the deed and it oozed with an unknown power that when Dilan activated it they could only wonder what was to come from it.

Soon a magic circle went up and down on it in a regular interval just after the Scroll rolled up. Then a screen of sorts appeared to Dilan. He nodded and began working not much for changes just a few new spots here and there before going for it by positioning the screen to the canyon like a camera of sorts. Once he finished the deep burst into flames as soon the ashes went upward to the sky.

"Um... what?" Elina asked as soon Dilan smirked.

"Three... two... one." Dilan counted down before the sky itself burst with power as the group was forced to shield their eyes. They soon heard rumbling nearby as if something was just summoned from God knows where. Soon when the light died down everyone gasped in horror as a large ball of fire big enough to end them all came from the sky. Usher growled ready to get Branwen out of there but Dilan was calm. Before anyone could leave the ball hit but the only explosion was that of a creature of a large stature landing on the ground.

When everyone looked once more no longer was it a bowl like canyon but instead there was something there and alive. It moved about roaring every so often as the creatures on the ground made their escape from it in fear of its might. But what shocked and amazed all who saw this was the fact on its back was a city teaming with life as it seemed to be that the city was built on the large ancient looking creatures back. "Did you... summon this beast?" Tomoe asked not knowing whether to be amazed or frightened at such a powerful form of summoning.

"Yes I did. This is the Demithor it's a powerful ancient creature that's said to have its body turn to stone and into a mountain upon death. What you see before you is the one and only... City of New Eden." Dilan introduced as they all saw it and were amazed at such a powerful image as the city was clearly Dilan's.

"Elina." Dilan spoke catching her attention as he walked up to her. The sun on them the scenery with the Demithor now roaming the land eating what it must and keeping a symbiotic relationship with the city and its people upon its back. "As I understand you were educated on how to be a Duchess." Dilan asked as Elina nodded.

"Of course." Elina scoffed as Dilan nodded to her.

"Then I must come to you with a request." Dilan said as he then gestured to the Demithor and New Eden. "I want to share this with you... all of you I hail from mixed blood and do to that I Was not allowed to study the needed things on how to rule hence why I come to you Elina and you all here." Dilan said referring to Elina, Tomoe, Shizuka, Branwen, and Irina. "Elina... I want you to become Countess and help me rule these people but not as Lord Vance had his own but to rule them in a way that they will be glad to follow me if I ask them." Dilan said as Elina began to blush a beet red color. "Eden is ruled by a Count or Countess... so please will you become Countess and lead this city with me." Dilan said as Elina then stepped away and held her face trying to calm herself.

'He just proposed for my hand in marriage?!' She cried out as she was doing circles in her own mind. The little Girl Elina who had always wanted her wedding to be like any little girl dreamed of while current Elina was bidding a hard farewell to Leina. In fact her mind began to day dream of the oncoming wedding day if she says yes.

She could picture it a beautiful white, gown her father walking her down the aisle to meet with her groom, Leina with her brides maids weeping tears of joy for her beloved sister, Evan oddly the best man, calm but coughing a bit showing he was holding his own tears of joy back. The other girls were there but they weren't the stars that day.

"Hey!" Branwen yelled as somehow in Elina's dream Branwen was also in a wedding dress only for the dream to be wrecked by Branwen. "I shall have you know I had been promised to the God of all Dragons as his mate and though as a divine being he is allowed many mistresses I shall not be second to you Ms. Vance." Branwen growled as Elina glared at the Dragon Warrior.

"I haven't even said yes yet! And how dare you speak to me that way!" Elina yelled but the catfight was about to start. "HE has proven himself but if I do say yes then I refuse to be second best to you wench!" Elina yelled as the two then began to butt heads while they glared intently at each other.

"I do not mind being his mistress but I shall be the head Mistress spoiled rich slut!" Branwen yelled as it seems Dilan may have to break it up fast.

"If it angers you this much and since he is strong and attractive then Dilan I give you my hand and accept your proposal." Elina said as Tomoe began to clench her fists a bit as Shizuka got ready to hold back Tomoe.

"Thank you." Dilan smiled as he knew they would assume it to be a wedding proposal. 'But first things we best know more of the other before we go that far." Dilan's aid as he smiled o them before they began to take their leave after all Eden awaited.
