Bright light covered the big stadium. Smoke from the explosion are felt, and the intensity hits hard. The silhouette of five dragons can be seen in the sky, and Prince Darius is ready to take on the giant magic circle.
Tiara's magic has calmed down but she lost conciousness. Arianne cover her with her robe while Fierre and Sierra is ready to attack anyone who come near. They are noble ladies after all.
Everyone panic but the four great family used their magic to protect the people. The Granoir make a large shield using rocks, and Aeras covered a portion of the stadium using a hurricane shield. A frozen shield for everyone is what Ashton used, while the Tierrien used a lava shield.
"Darius!!!!!!" Laria's voice echoed all over the place. Tears flowed from her eyes as she cannot feel his presence anymore. She did not close her eyes when the explosion happened, and see how the Prince fought it off.
The magic circle has vanished so is the Prince. The five legendary dragons of the West Empire landed, giving off another impact.
The familiar pair of blue eyes meet Laria's green radiant and calm eyes. She was very mad right now that she was not able to know who the man is but realized it seconds after.
Everyone was silent and the four great family intensify their magic and could not see what is going on outside the shield.
"The Fifth Emperor of the West Empire, Hadean Luciano Magnolia West, has arrived!" one of the hooded man in his right side announced. This make Laria flinched and the kneeling King and Queen excited. Talks from what happened surrounds the stadium and many questions what they wanted to ask.
The four great families retracted the protective barrier but in on high alert. They attacked us after all.
"I see that my great nephew has come to save me!" the Queen stand and excitedly maintain her dignity. "Uncuff me now!" she commands the guard.
The man was wearing a dark hood, and his unfamiliar mask. Laria knew that eyes very well.
'So he became an Emperor now...'
She remember that the unpleasant Queen is the precious princess of West Empire and was sent to keep an eye on the Eternal Kingdom.
'Did they come to rescue her? But the biggest question is where is the Prince?'
Laria collected her composure and stand with all graciousness. She commanded the guard that do not know what to do to the Queen to give them a chair. She needs to handle the situation as Prince Darius Representative.
"Greetings to the Emperor!" Laria announced but she did not bow. The people around her does how know what to do if they will bow or not.
"How dare you," the announcer asked and Laria spoke.
"You are the one who trespass our land," she paused, "And even land an attack to us." she fiercely said and commanded the guard to prepare using hand signal.
"We came to save our dear princess---" he was cut off by intense aura coming from Ashton, and his cheek now has a cut. The five remained silent and you can feel the intense aura coming from them.
"How impudent!" Ashton shouted. "Who's princess are you talking about?" and is ready to fight.
"Is this how you treat a delegate from the West Empire?!" The announcer losing his composure, looking so fierce and is ready to attack. Blood dripping from his cheeks so is his temper. You could feel something ominous coming from him.
"Is this your way of waging war against us?" she look so fierce that Arianne and her siblings feel the aura of their sister is losing control. Somehow, Arianne was connected to Laria and can feel the discomfort when it comes to aura she is releasing.
They know that she has no affinity in magic, but maybe she is a late bloomer. She is the eldest daughter of the Fordenn after all. Suddenly, the voice that keeps pushing Laria in making hasty decision has vanished.
Laria felt so free. As if a fishbone was lifted from her neck.
"What are you doing?!" the Queen shouted at her, and Laria was not aware that she is releasing so much aura that reaches the sky. Everyone is now bowing to the Emperor because of the ominous aura coming from the four of them but she could not do so and the four great families remained dignified.
"How impudent!" the announcer of Emperor Hadean said.
"You are the one that attacked us first!" Laria was ready to fight. There were just five of them. She can feel her body filled with magic. She can feel the bloodlust in every nerve of her system.
"Why would we bow down to you?! We are an independent Kingdom!" she spoke that made the citizens bowing raised their heads.
"Yes! Why would we bow to you!"
"We are not part of the West empire!"
"You attack us first!"
"Where is our Prince?!"
"You are misunderstanding something. We came to rescue the Queen," that made all the attention to the grinning Queen.
"That is right, do not be stubborn!" Queen replied.
"This Queen threatened the Royal Successor," she paused, "And what did you do to Prince Darius? The Crown Prince of the Eternal Kingdom?!" she asked.
The Four Great Families are on standby and is listening to the conversation. They are now weighing if they should interfere or no.
"He is a threat to the West Empire so he must be eliminated," the announcer spoke again and this made Laria's blood boil.
"What did you say?!"
The Emperor made a hand signal that means stop and he is taking over.
"Eliminate the Prince of Eternal Kingdom?!" losing her patience, the aura she is emitting glows so brightly and immensely.
Above her, was a very beautiful ice bird was summoned. It was made of ice but is moving around freely, and an icy sensation can feel the more near it. It was about 10meters long. It's eyes is golden, wings flapping like a gem. Instead of emitting a fire, it was giving off the icy vibe.
"Ha... It's been a while," Laria was shocked at the appearance of the bird. She was more shocked when it suddenly winked on her. From that moment, it was like the voice she's been talking with for a while has been imbirdsonated.
(Impersonated but since not a person, it's imbirdsonated xD)
"The Legendary Icetierre!"
"Ohmygosh! is she part of Winterialle family?"
"She is the Eldest daughter of Fordenn Family, right?!"
"To summon the Icetierre at a young age, and a woman on top of that!"
Many opinion rose on the stadium. Ashton, the next head of the Winterialle was in awe of how beautiful the Icetierre is. Meanwhile, his father and mother are gritting their teeth because the Icetierre should have been for their eldest son. Now, the Duke and Duchess Winterialle need to acknowledge her as a Winterialle.
But how could that happen? Her mother is just an illegitimate child! Their twisted thinking that they are high and mighty is what will make them fall.
Arianne, Fierre, and Sierra was amazed at how the bird is compared to the legend. The country have not seen it since the founding of the Kingdom.
Citizens and other nobles feel that even though they wage a war on the West Empire, they stand a 25 % chance. If only the other three great families were sble to summon their guardians.
Amidst the heated exchange of words, suddenly a large crack formed in the sky and the laughing Fierro entered the scene.
"Hello there, Hadean," he smirked while riding the King of the Dragons Spirit, Loki.
