"It started but something's wrong. Only Kevin was supposed to awaken. Why do I feel another energy, a DnO one?" A dark haired man asked the creature beside him. The only part of the creature that was visible was its pair of golden eyes. It looked at the man with its eyes and nodded. "I believe there's another person who is close to awakening a Martial Art, even if it's in a year's time." Suddenly a name resounded in the man's head. "Revel. Revel. Revel." "I…it can't be….. He's still young….." but he could do nothing about it. The eyes beside him vanished as he stood up. A kind of darkness covered his face as he also vanished.

The battle between the kids and the Marauding Baron was still ongoing. Even with the various injuries it had, it was proving hard to kill. The Marauding Baron angrily stomped on the ground causing a small earthquake. It was enough for the beast to catch its breath. Having escaped from the clutches of the kids, the beast roared angrily. This time it sounded like a real roar. Its eyes glowed a dark red color. The aura around it changed and its injuries healed at a visible rate. In less than 2 seconds, all the fatalities it had suffered had healed and its body looked as good as new, without blemish. But that wasn't the end. It grew another two feet in height and its claws glowed with an eerie white glow. Scales started forming on its body and its slimy tail became more rigid. The transformation was a shock to the boys who had lost control of their bodies. Even in the state they were in, they could feel the domineering aura of the beast in front of them. The Marauding Baron seeing their shocked expressions grinned maniacally. It was clearly enjoying the "popularity" it was gaining. Seeing the new beast in front of them, the kids blood boiled and their eyes glowed more. They felt like they wanted more of the carnage they were causing to the Marauding Baron. They felt like they were in control but at the same time not but that wasn't agenda here. They wanted to fight more, without holding back. The Marauding Baron felt the killing intents from the kids but it was prepared this time round. It took the initiative to attack first but the kids weren't slow either. They brandished their various fighting equipments and shot off towards the beast. An almighty clash of the fighters caused a few of the trees around to break. The fighters were also thrown from the impact but they didn't back down and jumped back into the chaos. Claws against claws, pointy tentacles against hooked tail, the battle became more intense. The Marauding Baron was in a berserk state causing it to attack mindlessly but those were also fatal to the boys, especially Kevin who didn't have any means of protecting himself except for his body. Within a few rounds, he was already covered in injuries but like a berserk beast, the sight of blood was a motivation to him as gave his all in the battle. Revel was a bit better but his tentacles couldn't keep up with the speed of the beast's attacks. The battle continued for a fair amount of time; the scales of the Marauding Baron were twisted in weird angles and it was bleeding but it was clearly fairing better than the kids who were starting to get sloppy with their attacks. The sudden boost of power and transformation in the kids was starting to recede. The Marauding Baron flashed a satisfied smile as it attacked aggressively. Going into a berserk state could kill it but it wanted to kill the kids, even if it died. But its wishes weren't granted.
After it had satisfactorily beaten the kids and was about to deliver the finishing blow, it saw a sudden flash of golden light and its vision split into eight parts. It didn't know what was happening but it could only whimper before it died, an honorable death.
A man appeared on the battle grounds with a girl on his shoulders and an 8 feet tall black beast beside him. The beast's golden eyes flashed and within a split second, they vanished along with the unconscious kids.

"Dad? Are they going to survive?" a sweet voice asked in worry. It belonged to a white blond young girl, specifically Lolita. She was talking to Bolderick who was busy bandaging the injuries of the "brave warriors", Kevin and Revel. "Mmm. No need to worry. They will be as fit as fiddles before you know it. They just completed the first stage of their awakening so they have to rest. We are going to take care of them from now on, okay?" Bolderick answered Lolita. "Okay. I'm very happy for them." "Now that you speak of happiness, I have a surprise for all of you. When they wake up, I will show it you." "Yay! I'll do my best." Lolita spoke with determination. "Of course you will."

"Attack her with everything!" a loud voice commanded a battalion of blue armored soldiers. They belonged to the royal army but their agenda was different. The princess was awakening today and they were to push her to her limits for her to awaken. The only to that though, was to attack her and threaten her life. The king stood behind a glass barrier with a young man and watched the princess with a calm look. The man beside the king was an 18 year old boy with white undercut hair, sapphire blue eyes and perfect angular face. He wore a white long sleeve shirt tucked into a pair of black trousers and black shoes. A wine colored cloak hang on him with an intricately designed "D" in gold color. He was Pius Devo, the next heir to the Devo clan. The king was a muscular man with long, purplish blue hair and unusual, piercing black eyes.
The princess was already covered in various injuries when a sudden light burst from her. It was pure white in color and held a holy and noble aura. Her long purplish blue hair and lively red eyes glowed with a faint white light. Her hair started floating as a white halo formed behind her. The halo widened to a certain height and exploded into little lights. The lights combined and formed a pair of beautiful angelic wings behind her. The wings flapped gracefully as she ascended.
The king's eyes widened in shock and pride. His face was a mixture of different emotions as he watched his daughter kick the soldiers' asses.
