The woman pleaded for compassion to stop as she fought. Her cheeks were flushed, and the doctor's face was expressionless. The others in the room didn't say anything but only gaze at her presences. The doctor took a needle from under the table and injected some unknown liquid to test her. The doctor used the needle to stab the woman's shoulder. The liquid began to soak into her veins in order to test the effect of the unknown substance. The woman was so enraged that her eyes became bright red,The liquid that turned her into a dragon was a favour from the salfer, veins on her body creating large wings attaching from her arm,they were recreating the ancient myth wyvern for their army

an army to betray the salfers

"Magnificent wings...prepare my ingredients I must make more of this" Nicolaus told his assistant beside him, he remove his clovers and mask, and he breathed deeply while observing the assistant's leaves. Nicolaus moved out of the room, when he got halted by a boy who bowed first and then spoke. "Sir, we have reports for you, there's a blade dropped down from Sky City," he said as he handed him a photo of the blade.

"blade"Nicolaus turned to face him,he slightly nodding, "we explore where it fell but it looks to develop its own... temple, they claimed it was a mistake when practicing their power on sky city but failed and felled down to here"

"how strange...that blade they created must be powerful"

"indeed, even the creators itself can't control its power, tell the other will investigate its temple"

"that wouldn't be so necessary sir,salfer forbid us to enter"

"You don't give me commands!" Nicolaus shouted angrily as the boy filched and apologies by bowed down to him, "do what I order you to do ,now leave!"he added, and the boy ran like a cat,

"I would never kill nor test on someone with your nonsense!" Xavier yelled angrily, The possessed seven the spirit's main objective is to kill seven bodies to build another doorway, in order to construct another portal, establishing another portal means covering up the darkness in the room so there may be freely

"I have studied the history before about this...but it didn't say they betrayed us," Claire stated, glancing at Xavier, wondering what more he is hidden from us, possibly he doesn't have loyalty to Claire? "some histories are simply fake stories never know what they did until you genuinely witnessed what they actually do"Dimitri cut her off in her thought.

"If I hadn't been so stupid as to believe this...domain was to attract my curiosity in, although don't you think we did a wonderful team achieving my projects?" He grinned, reminding Xavier that the thing he created was still alive; wyverns may not be as powerful as a dragon, but they can still kill a thousand men

Xavier clutched his collar violently as his hands began to glow, unaware that he was still on seven body. "I shall not in vain those who had suffered because of you"Xaiver said

"What are you going to do?,tell everyone the truth? They won't believe you because you're a salfer and being kind to others won't change anything; they've had enough of our kind" Nicolaus had already intended to murder the child instead of his own from Xavier anger, so Claire pushed Xavier away from the possessed boy, yelling, "killing the child won't kill the spirit, it will only make his plan effective!"

"i...im sorry"

"That hair pin looks so familiar," Nicolas remarked, glancing at her hair, recalling what he remembered from the past. Claire looked at him, puzzled, "are you perhaps an elise, A queen of Sky City?" He asked of Claire. She was about to speak but Xavier grabbed her hand and said, "Don't say anything." Nicolaus let out a little gasp after remembering the sign, and he grinned.

When seven body pointed at Claire, he said, "You have the power to take the sword and destroy this place," in a serious tone. But as he pointed at her, he stuttered, his laughter driving him mad. "Take her body she will guide us from the outside world so that we may leave this darkness behind"

They began to hear loud noises, felt chilly, and shiver as several floating spirits appeared one by one. Xavier approached Claire for safety, and they started to mimic each other's laughter. This particularly irritated Dmitri spirit giving him a headache from muttering, Before they track Claire down to her body, Xavier created a barrier around her, but the spirit can pass through it since the magic is weak after traversing the portal earlier, Xavier's magic can drain from it.

Dimitri had enough finally stood up at them, pushing Claire and Xavier behind him. He raises his hand as a magical orb forms in his palm. Feeling the wind pulling them in and dragging them around, the orb seven's possessed body began to scream in an attempt to cling to the boy's body but Failed seven's body collapsed on its own, and the brilliant mirror began to shatter like glass, Dimitri finished pulling souls into the orb, he closed his hand violently breaking the orb and raised his other hand, which was holding a scythe, Dimitri had no expression connecting both of them but leaving Xavier and Claire shock

strong wind builds up around him ,Dmitri snaps the magic and scythe together, sending a shock wave that fully destroys the portals shattering like glass, and it seemed as if he put the souls into his scythe. They started to fall as if the floor did not exist leaving them in what appears to be a bottomless pit similar to the situation they end up in earlier,

Suddenly a portal was created leading to another room it wasn't Xavier's magic nor Claire. They weren't prepared for a room crashing through it, but luckily the shield Xavier built made them safe but hardly landed

Xavier sighed and touched his head before opening his eyes. notice how the room was different it seemed like they were in a typical cave— a human figure approached from the shadows.

"who are you?"
