SOLEIL didn't expect that she'd return to Kale Kingdom during chaos.

After her training with her Brother Wixx, the two of them planned to head home first and meet up with the other Beast Gods to make a plan. But on their way back to Solarium, they received a message from Solenn, the Sun Priestess.

Apparently, the Crades and the evolved ones had attacked Kale Kingdom a week earlier than they were told.

When she and the Red Phoenix arrived at the Royal Capital, they were almost too late.

"I can't believe the Crades managed to break the protective barrier around the kingdom," Wixx, standing beside her on the roof of the highest tower in the Royal Capital, said while watching the horrific attacks of the Crades happening below. "And the royal knights couldn't even protect one village."

She heard her brother's apathetic voice, but her body felt numb at the moment.

There were so many things happening at the same time that she didn't know where to look at. People were being eaten by Crades wherever she looked. But the thing that shocked her the most was the fact that the evolved Crades actually looked very similar to humans now.

Thus, it confused humans. They began suspecting that the other was Crades. Then, they would fight and end up killing each other only to find out that they actually murdered a fellow human. That unnecessary killing just made the pandemonium worse than already it was.

Her heart thumped hard against her chest painfully.

Everything that she saw disgusted her to the core.

"The other Beast Gods are late," her Brother Wixx said, then he turned to her. "Shall we start?"

"Brother."

"Yes?"

She turned to her brother. Even though she couldn't see her reflection, she was pretty sure that her eyes had turned a glowing red. For the first time in her life, she felt so angry that she thought of harming even innocent humans. Thankfully, she managed to get a hold of her remaining sanity. "I will burn everything down– so please do your best to save as many humans as you could. And if you have the time, could you please check on the royal family in the tower? I'm worried about Lord Kalel's siblings."

Her brother looked confused, but he nodded. "I don't know what you're planning but I trust you, Soleil," he said, then he opened his flaming wings. "I will help the citizens, and try to check on the Black Serpent's siblings if I have the chance."

After saying that, Brother Wixx flew around without further ado.

She understood her brother's urgency. They were already in a war and that meant every second count. Thus, she didn't waste any more time as well.

"Calm down," she told herself, then she took several deep breaths until her breathing returned to normal. Then, she summoned her Golden Bow. She didn't summon the Golden Arrow yet because she needed to perform a spell first. "Let's do this."

Encouraging herself worked.

Fire Mages were still mages that could perform spells that didn't have anything to do with fire. It was just that their affinity to the flame was so strong that people thought they were only good at controlling fire.

But she was born a mage, too. Thankfully, her clan's greatest mage taught her how to make strong spells, and that was what she was about to do.

"Great Flame of mine, listen to my cry," she said while holding the Golden Bow in her hand tight. "Burn those monsters who feast on human flesh, leave not even a speck of dust. Envelope this cursed village in your warm and mighty embrace."

The Golden Bow illuminated, telling her that she successfully created a spell of her own.

Without hesitation, she grabbed the Golden Bow and positioned herself to shoot. This time, she summoned her Golden Arrow while preparing another spell.

Yes, she only needed one arrow.

"Golden Arrows of mine, I need your infinite strength," Soleil said seriously, then she pulled the arrow pointed at the sky. "Make it rain and don't stop until every single man-eating monster has turned into ashes."

A legend would be born from that day later.

People had witnessed the "Great Rain of Fire" from the infinite flaming arrows "pouring" down. But the amazing thing was each flaming arrow only hit Crades, saving the humans and giving them the chance to be saved by Winchell.

While Soleil, who didn't even need to move, just stood there and watch her enemies get burned down to ashes.

But just because she was 'just' standing there didn't mean that she was doing nothing. The two spells that she created were actually eating on her Mana. Moreover, the "infinite" Golden Arrows weren't actually "infinite."

If ever she lost consciousness or she died, then the spell would lose its effect.

Thus, Soleil had to be conscious and guard her back.

But she didn't have to worry about that.

Even though she felt the presence of several strong Crades behind her, she didn't move from her spot. Heck, she didn't even turn to them. After all, she knew that her allies had already come to protect her.

"You are so reckless, Soleil," Elis Ripperton said, and she could imagine him shaking his head. "Couldn't you have waited a bit for us?"

"Why are the prophecies always wrong?" Ainsworth complained. His heavy footsteps were enough for her to know that he was pissed. "They gave us the wrong date again!"

"Stop complaining, you idiots!" her Brother Wixx, who was flying around, stopped in front of them to yell at his fellow Beast Gods. "Help me save the people!"

Without saying a word, Elis Ripperton and Ainsworth disappeared from behind her.

Ah, they definitely followed her brother to save the humans.

"You really are reckless, Soleil Rosenberg," Kalel Moonchester, who just stood beside her, said while shaking his head. "But good job."

Soleil, despite being tired at the moment, smiled. "Thank you, Lord Kalel."

TO SAY that Auro was shocked to see the Royal Capital get burned down by Soleil Rosenberg's flame alone would be an understatement. He watched the whole thing happen from the window of the highest floor in the tower. He was on his way to fetch Elaine, his youngest sibling, to give her to Ingham as a present. After all, he already welcomed the royal family of the Crades in the Royal Palace.

In fact, he was pretty sure that Gruger already made a meal out of King Aleo, his father.

He thought he had the time to make it look like they were overpowered by the Crades. But if any of the other Beast Gods expect for Elis Ripperton reached the Royal Palace first, they would definitely know that the Crades were welcomed inside.

Damn, I'll get exposed if that happens.

This wasn't supposed how the plan would go.

Of course, he expected that the Beast Priestess and the Beast Gods would appear. Even Elis Ripperton had to go so he wouldn't be suspected. What he and the Blue Dragon didn't expect was Soleil Rosenberg's flame that burned down almost all the Crades that they sent to the Royal Capital to eat the humans.

When did Soleil Rosenberg become this powerful?

"Auro, my dear, where is my premium meal?"

Auro's eyes widened in shock when he heard Ingham's voice. When he turned around, he was surprised to see the Crades Queen walking towards him. The blasted monster's mouth and clothes were covered with human blood. The look on her face told him that she was still hungry. "Your Majesty, you didn't have to come here," he said politely. Damn, why did this glutton monster follow him? "I will bring the royal princess to you."

"But I'm getting impatient," Ingham complained like a child. "You gave Gruger the king. I want to eat the little princess now."

He clenched his fists tight but he smiled anyway. "Then, after you, my lady. My sister's room is at the end of the hallway."

The queen smiled, then she walked past him happily.

Heck, she was almost hopping by now.

He followed the Crades Queen like a puppy. To be honest, his heart was thumping against his chest like crazy. He was hoping that none of the Beast Gods would reach the Royal Palace yet.

Thankfully, they reached Elaine's room without encountering that problem.

"Hello, little princess!" Ingham greeted his sister in a cheerful voice as she entered the room. Then, he heard Elaine scream in horror. "Oh, please don't make it hard for this auntie to devour you, sweeties."

Elaine's scream only grew louder.

"Brother, help me!" Elaine screamed, then she heard him cry in agony as if Ingham had already got a hold of her. "Brother!"

"Aren't you going to help your poor little sister?"

Auro's eyes widened in shock at the same time he felt shivers down his spine when he heard a voice behind him. He didn't feel anyone's presence so he was surprised when he heard someone talk. When he turned around, his heart almost leaped out of his chest when he saw the face that greeted him. "L-Lord Winchell."

"Auro Moonchester," Winchell said, a smug smile plastered on his face. "Did you just let that Crades eat your sister?"

***

ALTHOUGH the whole Royal Capital had been burned down by her flame already, Soleil felt cold because her surroundings were covered with ice.

After all, Kalel Moonchester froze the Crades that tried to attack them.

"Oh, is it too cold?" Kalel asked when he saw her shaking in cold. "Sorry, I thought Fire Mages don't get cold."

"We usually don't get bothered by the cold," Soleil said, then she turned to the Black Serpent. "But it seems like your ice Mana has become more powerful, my lord."

"Ah, I did some training," he said while taking off his jacket, then he put it on her shoulders. "Does it help you get warm?"

She smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Lord Kalel."

Kalel just nodded, then he looked down below. "It seems like the Blue Dragon and the little tiger have rescued the people in the area." He looked up at the direction of the Royal Palace. "Should we follow Winchell in the Royal Palace?"

Ah, yes.

Her Brother Wixx said that he would check on the Royal Palace and left the Royal Capital to Elis Ripperton and Ainsworth.

She knew that Kalel was worried about his family. But he chose to stay with her and protect her since she couldn't break her concentration or else, her flame would disappear. The Black Serpent had already done his duty.

It was time for Kalel to protect his family this time.

Soleil was about to respond when all of a sudden, everything turned black.

"Soleil!"
