Lucien shocked. His guess was right all along that she was the reincarnation of the goddess Lyra. But seeing her now covered in blood, his heart was shaken, because he didn't want to lose his loved one again. Lucien couldn't accept what happened then he screamed, "Argh!!!!"

Along with his screams, the moon returned full, the lunar eclipse was over. His strength was back again but the power that appeared was so powerful.

"What's wrong?" said the boss.

After realizing what had happened, the asuras intended to kill him again with an attack. However, their swords could only reach the magic barrier. The strong pressure from Lucien's magic caused them to bounce. The boss of the asuras ordered the others to shoot at him, but the arrows that they shot were unable to penetrate his defenses.

His long hair was swaying dancing along with his great magical power. Simultaneously, his long hair slowly turned back to black and blended with some dark blue. He opened his eyes which turned dark blue as deep as the color of the sea and an amethyst-colored gem appeared on his forehead.

He tried to use his magic power to close Ryana's wound. On the other hand, the asuras were trying to get out of the cave and escape. After feeling healed enough, Lucien laid her body on the ground and stood up. Then a trident appeared in his right hand and his black wings spread out. "It's time to attack." Said Lucien with teary eyes.

Quickly like lightning, Lucien swung her trident and lightning flashed through the air. His attack chased and struck them. Just a single attack reach many opponents and they were defeated. When Lucien was being emotional, suddenly remembered his teacher's message, "."

Then, he stopped and removed his weapon. Some of the other asuras were frightened and fled for safety. However, the boss of the gang did not accept it. Because of his arrogance, he intends to attack Lucien. But Lucien took out an ordinary sword to parry and slashed his chest.

"Arrrgh!!!" The boss shouted.

Then Lucien said, ". I didn't want to hurt you."

The boss felt guilty and knelt, "I'm sorry."

Lucien said.

"I will heed your advice, sir." Answer the boss.

Lucien asked, "Who has ordered you to do this attack?"

Because Lucien suspected the appearance of many asuras as if they had prepared and worked together.

"Devil king, Ty-Tyrone."

Lucien who heard the name then flinched and gripped his sword tightly to hold his emotions.

Lucien returned to the cave and checked Ryana's condition. After feeling good, he carried Ryana in both hands. Dawn is breaking. Lucien intends to go back to his castle. But when he was about to leave that place, the god Kiran stood in front of him. Kiran saw Lucien was carrying Ryana who was unconscious. There was a misunderstanding among them. Then Kiran shouted, "You... the one who killed Yuki!"

Lucien flinched when he met him again.

****

After finishing his affairs in heaven, Kiran descended back into the human world to meet Ryana. At that time, he felt Ryana's energy around the forest and headed towards it. While traveling in the air, he saw a flash of lightning from a distance. Therefore, he rushed over there to check what was going on.

Full of emotion, he attacked Lucien with sharp crystals. Lucien covered himself with one of his wings which had been infused with magic power to fend off the crystal attack. Then, the crystal shattered.

Lucien shouted while avoiding his attacks by occasionally flying backward. "Wait. It's not what you see."

However, Kiran didn't want to hear the explanation. He took out his sword and continued to attack while saying, "Let go of that lady!"

Lucien also landed on the ground and leaned Ryana's body on a tree.

"Okay, if that's what you want, I will fight with you," Lucien said while taking out his trident.

"My storm cannot be defeated by your lightning," Kiran said.

Lucien struck the fox's attack with a thunderbolt.

There was a big explosion. Due to Lucien's great power, the windstorm and crystal also split and shattered.

"What??!" Kiran shocked.

Then Lucien slid forward and drew his trident at Kiran while saying, "I didn't kill Yuki. There's no point in continuing this fight!"

Kiran was taken aback and parried his trident. They stare at each other.

Ryana woke up from her stupor and was surprised to see Lucien and Kiran were fighting. She shouted, "Stop!!!"

But they didn't hear it.

In a weak state, Ryana kneeled. They immediately approached Ryana.

"Stop this fight!!" shouted Ryana.

"You should rest first." Lucien worries about her condition.

When the situation began to subside, Kiran explained what had happened while in the Shira kingdom. He considers Lucien as the killer of her mother. Lucien was surprised to hear that Yuki was Ryana's mother. Then, Ryana shook her head and said, "Lucien was the one who saved my mother as well as me at that time. I saw the memories from the tree of light."

Kiran said, "Sorry that time, I hurt you."

It's okay. It's past." Lucien replied.

"And thanks for protecting them," Kiran said.

"Yes," Lucien replied while nodding his head.

"So, we should be friends and protect each other," I said to them while pulling and putting their palms together.

*****

Meanwhile at the Tyrone territory, one of the asuras reports that they were defeated by a black-winged creature with the power of lightning. Tyrone found out that it was Lucien.

"What's in it for me?" Tyrone said.

"What is the advantage for me?" Tyrone said.

"I will share the territory with you in this country and also send soldiers to catch Ryana."

"Okay. We will attack the kingdom of Demetria," Tyrone said.

Leona who knows this then flies to Lucien castle to convey what will happen.

"What?!" thought Ryana surprised to hear that. "We must tell this to the prince!"

Then, Lucien sent a letter written by Ryana through eagle. The eagle flew to the Claes room and stopped at the window. For a moment, Claes was surprised there was a bird. He looked and checked. It turned out that there was a letter from Ryana. Then Claes ordered to prepare an army.

Finally, the day of departure for war with the asuras has arrived. They brought in 10 knights with five hundred warriors each under their control.

On the other hand, the asuras also knew about the movements of the kingdom. They had prepared a large army.

Prince Claes rides a white horse. He looks charismatic with his armor of war. He pulled on the horse's reins. This purebred horse immediately knew its master's intention, then raised its forelegs pawing the air with its strong haunches while neighing. The prince then raised his sword and shouted, "Hiyaaaaa!!!!" as a signal to start this journey and at the same time encouraging, then followed by the shouts of the soldiers behind him in fiery enthusiasm.

Previously, prince Claes had discussed with higher-ups, nobles, and knights.

"I will go through the forest and cross the river. The asuras live in the western foothills." Claes pointed it out while pointing at the map, then he continued, "If we win this mission, then it will bring change to this kingdom and eliminate the terror of fear for so long. With the help of the giant which the giant, we will defeat them."

"Therefore, I ask for your cooperation. We will arrange the formation in the form of a pentagon prism. However, the two points at the back will merge into one to the center to support the troops in front. The last two troops were on the left flank and the other two were on the right flank in charge of reading the situation and analyzing it while waiting to be signaled for a surprise attack when the firecrackers were launched. Giant will be in the front position with me and all of you soldiers guard the border positions."

"Yes, Your Majesty!!" replied the knights in unison.

"Fighting in the opponent's territory could be a trap. Bringing many troops without good planning will only drain energy or even lives. The asuras have threatened us. If they came here, the country would be destroyed. It is our confidence to attack together with several soldiers and consider the giant on our side."

"How about me, prince?" said Taddeus.

"You stay on guard and protect the king. I entrusted this important task to you," Claes said.

"B-but... I want to fight alongside the prince."

"" Said the prince who convinced Taddeus.

"Okay, prince. I will do it. How is it possible that only the prince and the giant attack, while the soldiers only guard the borders and the kingdom?" asked Taddeus.

"I don't want many lives to be lost. Because this is no longer a battle between humans," said Claes.
