Draxus went towards the upper floor and visited the room where Olivia, Pauleen, and Juniper were found. After calmly entering the room, he found the three talking about things he couldn't easily hear. "Yo, what are you three talking about?" Suddenly intervening while remaining at the door while peeking, Draxus calmly asked the three a question and made Olivia jump out of surprise. She instantly blushed and looked away before giving a panicked answer. "N-Nothing!! We were just talking about your abilities!!" Draxus tilted his head and entered the room slowly. After coming in, he then asked about their topic. "What about my abilities though? Well, I did display a lot against Serkyrio but I still lost you know?" Olivia looked down as she remembered the gruesome loss Draxus had against his own leader. "Still worried about that? I'm still quite proud of my results even if I lost you know? My very first clean hit on Serkyrio, was something I worked very hard on." Draxus caressed Olivia's head. "Hmm, I know that you took both of these swords with you but why aren't you using Kessaku? Isn't weapon changing with [Wheel of Fortune] your expertise?" Draxus shook his head slowly as it was something that he cannot use due to the effect of Kessaku. "Kessaku relies on absorbing magic to create augmentations. That's the only way I can do weapon transition without Wheel of Fortune. However, both effects are pointless without the ability to use magic in the first place. So I can only use these two swords which are my forte weapons." Pauleen, who was the one who asked the question, felt convinced with the answer. Juniper then asked something which was something unexpected. "Can you tell me what you did to force the emperor to space out? I saw you using a card before he spaced out..." Draxus took out his [Death] card and showed them what actually happened. "Actually, I activated the reversed version of this card." He then hid the card while beginning to explain in a rush. "It's basically a card that temporarily incites the target to forget the goal. That was it's original concept, making sure that they will provide a powerful opening. It can only be used when the target has been flinched quite a bit." While noticing that he actually used a tarot card, Olivia became worried and asked what the effect of the tarot card was. "What was the effect of it? The [Compensation] I mean." Draxus pondered for a bit before shrugging his shoulders. "Pretty sure it was being unable to feel ten percent of my senses. But it was pretty much cancelled out as Serkyrio tripled my pain sensitivity using magic before he threw me down to the ground twice." Olivia covered her lips with both hands with an indescribable expression of fear. "I really wanna call bs on that, but in reality, that ain't even ten percent of his stuff." Transitioning to a shocked expression, Olivia asked Draxus about the abilities out of curiosity on what Serkyrio could do. "Then... If that was not full power then what will be his full power?" Draxus pondered for a little as he tried to recall his meetings with Serkyrio on the morning tea with Remuel and Arlesk. "If I remember correctly on our exchanges during morning tea, I can say that the [Moonstone] has one of the deadliest abilities in all of existence. Sure, I have my final trump card using all tarot cards at once but... It won't be enough since the chant is way longer than the [Moonstone]'s effect." Juniper then asked once more about the abilities of Serkyrio with the gems. "If I have to say, surely both you and Pauleen will understand the concept but, it's one of those things where you fully control the space inside the barrier. It's a concept that involves the vacuum where you remove all matter inside a barrier. Basically, no air, no light, no ground. You're just floating inside that barrier until your body explodes. It's hard to avoid but it's possible since it's a deployment barrier which reveals where it's going to be placed once the chant begins. However, he has a lot of trapping potential with [Emerald] effect." Draxus pondered a bit more as the three were having shocked expressions as if they understood that they cannot defy or go against something like Serkyrio. "Another one is the [Onyx] gem, it's something called like, [Silent Command]. It's basically a concept that forces the weak willed to accept the words of the command, even suicide. That's all I remember so far." After making explanations, Draxus caressed Olivia's head as she seemed pretty worried about his chances of fighting Serkyrio. "Relax Livi, I'm sure Serkyrio knows his limits." Olivia smiled after getting a little bit more reassurance from Draxus. He then turned his gaze to Pauleen and Juniper and shrugged his shoulders. "Well, that's all I remember so far. Each one of us has strengths and weaknesses. However, with how strong the conceptualization of magic here is. It's possible to create a power that's basically your own magic. However, since you guys pretty much ask me to teach you the concept, I ended up learning every single ability and expanded my horizons with versatility." The two simply laughed a little as the four of them began talking for quite a long time inside the room.
Nighttime came and one person walked through the halls carrying two swords. He was looking somewhat vigilant to his surroundings as if he doesn't want to be caught by anyone moving around the area. The time was beyond lights out where the only people are wandering are the night guards. After a short while, he ended up in front of a certain room. He knocked on the door twice before getting a response which opened the door with excited movement. "You've finally come Draxu- s..." Gwen appeared in her yellow pajamas as she looked up to the person who she saw after opening the door. He was wearing templar clothing and have both golden swords sheathed on his waist. "A-Axel?! What are you doi-! Mmph-!!" Axel used his hand to cover Gwen's mouth to prevent her from shouting. He then pushed her in and locked the door to prevent anyone from spying. "So you were waiting for Draxus huh? What do you think you're doing?!" Axel slapped Gwen harshly into the cheek which caused her to fall down while feeling pain into her right cheek. As she touched her right cheek, she felt a stinging pain which caused her to twitch in reaction. After that, Axel took her hand and forcefully raised and pushed her into the bed. "Let me teach you a lesson, to not defy the hero of this country!" Gwen, after seeing Axel take off the belt, she gained an extremely uncomfortable feeling and began fearing that something will happen to her tonight as she will be defiled. "H-Help me Draxus!!!" After hearing that shout for help, Axel got angered further and raised his left hand once more preparing to slap her. But just before it began to lower, a nail pierced through halfway into the palm of his hand and send excruciating pain to his head.
Earlier that night, Draxus was walking around the hallways trying to loop around the rooms of Olivia and the rest of the party. He each kept them on check as his room was pretty much at the center of their rooms. So he was slacking around while preventing anyone from coming to invade them. In terms of clothing, he was wearing his standard cerulean jacket with white fur on the hood. Instead of the polo and formal jeans, he was wearing a white turtleneck shirt and shorts with cerulean shoes. He had both of his weapons ready and sheathed as he waited for a bit of time until he could trust the country of guarding them. But just as he began moving into the room and checking the night sky of the balcony, he heard a scream which was seeking for help. "H-Help me Draxus!!!" Draxus immediately knew that it was Gwen seeking for his help as he jumped down one floor and moved across three rooms to the right and arrived at the balcony of her room while equipping the headset in full glow. "G-Gwen..." With anger in his eyes of seeing Axel trying to sexually harass Gwen, Draxus took out an eight inch nail from inside the jacket and threw it straight at Axel's left palm which was raised. "Guh!! Aghhh!!!!" Axel turned his gaze to the source of the needle while holding up his hand which was half-way pierced by the nail. He then took it off from his hand and turned his gaze to the source of that nail. It was then Draxus spoke with an extremely cold tone. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?"
