THE CROWN OF MEDUSA START TO SING
I learned how to conjure the powerful Rainbow Enigma flame after Seamus the Meek taught me the ability in the Temple of Magic. Although this Rainbow Enigma flame wasn't efficient enough to create a new golem, there was much that it could do, including casting a golem enhancement.
So, I cast my forging flame on one of the divine artifacts, The Sword of Dominon.
"Rainbow Enigma"
My forging flame engulfed the divine artifact before extracting the divine magic inside. Then I transferred the divine energy into Chash to enhance his golem body.
After a short while, a cloud enveloped Chash.
When he walked out of the cloud, there was the addition of a large and broad sword behind his back.
"Did it work?" Ratatouille asked Chash.
"Let me try it out", Chash told us.
So, we went to an empty hill where Chash would demonstrate his new use of the Sword of Dominon.
Suddenly, the large sword attached to his back flew out. The sword grew to twenty times its size before striking the small hill before us. To our surprise, the hill was broken into two by the powerful sword.
"Wow this is so amazing", Chash said to us excitedly.
The broken hill destroyed by Chash's powerful sword split into two, one part was engulfed in flames, while the other part was frozen.
"Is this the manifestation of your skill?" I asked Chash.
"Yes, this is my skill now, Dominon of Ice and Fire, that uses the magic of the divine artifact", he replied to us.
"This Dominon of Ice and Fire is the equivalent of a peak Yellow tier Legendary magic", Meera said to us.
"With this divine sword I can finally hold my own with the Darklord or the Spider Queen", Chash told us.
"What about the other two divine artifacts? It is a waste not to be able to use them", Ratatouille asked me.
"Let me try the banner", Rinna asked me suddenly.
"Are you sure you have enough magic to control the banner?" I asked Rinna worriedly.
In this world, magic is gathered by humans into the heart, the bone, the blood, the mind and the soul. Rinna's magic was the last kind.
Rinna has enormous magic in her soul, but she wasn't a templar or magi. She doesn't make use of the magic of her heart. Her magic came from her soul.
"I won't be using the banner directly. I'll try to augment it into my serpent", she replied to me.
Rinna could augment her conjured serpent with powerful Tesseracts of the Valhalla which could be no less rare than our divine artifacts.
It was more than probable that she could do so with the Banner of Supremes.

Rinna and her shamans meticulously prepared an intricate enchantment within the sacred confines of her temple. The chamber, bathed in the glow of night stones, revealed the delicate lines of the enchantment that covered the space.
As the chanting began, the soft illumination shifted into strands of light that wove and danced throughout the room. The light gained a life of its own, transforming into the colossal form of a serpent that loomed before them.
This serpent had three heads, each one embodying a facet of Rinna's soul magic.
The serpent's body was that of an immense python, powerful and unyielding. To the right, the head of a large, hooded cobra symbolized cunning and stealth. To the left, a fearsome head with grotesque fangs represented sheer, primal power.
At the center, instead of a serpent's head, there was the visage of a woman, crowned with venomous, writhing snakes—the head of Medusa, a manifestation of Rinna's own deadly crown.
With a resolute gesture, Rinna offered the divine artifact, the Banner of Supremes, to her serpent soul.
Nehess, the fanged serpent on the left, lunged forward, attempting to devour the artifact in a single, savage bite.
But the Banner of Supremes was not so easily consumed. A formidable aura radiated from it, resisting the serpents' attempts to consume it.
Rinna hesitated, uncertain of how to subdue the powerful artifact before her.
------
"It seems Rinna's magic is insufficient to subdue the magic of the Banner of Supremes", I complained to myself.
"Husband, you must aid me", Rinna told me suddenly and worriedly.
"I don't understand this magic of yours, how can I help you?" I asked her.
"There is a divine magic that protects the Banner of Supremes from being assimilated. There is only one source that can destroy the divine artifact", Rinna told me, and I understood finally.
"Alright, let me break up the Banner of Supremes for you", I told Rinna as I cast a flame over the Banner of Surpremes.
A forging flame with the color of rainbow engulfed the Banner of Supremes. Surprisingly, this soft flame slowly disintegrated the divine banner as it transformed into magic essences.
"Rainbow Enigma flame"
"Now", Rinna screamed out loudly as her Medusa crown grew like an apparition.
All the serpents on Medusa's crown reached toward the broken essences of the Banner of Supreme. These serpents basked in the magic and were nourished. In a short time, all the magic of the Banner of Supremes was taken by Rinna's serpents.
Suddenly, I had a bad thought.
Like she psychically understood me, Rinna told me, "Are you waiting for this again?"
-----
Suddenly, Rinna let her regal gown fall, revealing herself completely naked before me.
It wasn't the first time I had seen Rinna's bare skin, but this was different.
Her nakedness went beyond the physical; it was as if her very soul stood exposed before me. I wasn't merely witnessing her body; I was beholding the pure, unfiltered essence of who she truly was.
The rawness of her being touched not only my eyes but reached deep into my soul.
Before I could fully grasp the intensity of what I was experiencing, Rinna's Medusa crown began to change.
The serpents in her crown shimmered and transformed, their dark scales turning into brilliant gold. As they shifted, they began to chant, their voices weaving together in a strange and mesmerizing orchestra of magic.
The Medusa crown, now radiant with golden light, became a symphony of enchantment.
