When all of the people scattered in place with some having successfully escaped the hall, Kourtney and the trio slowly runs out towards the backdoor of the room, only to be stop by one of the enemies.

"Ho ho, what do we have here"

"Tch" she clicks her tongue

The four of them backs out slightly but suddenly gets surrounded by few of the hooded people.

"It looks like the leak was right, there are some here that are blessed with magic" the man said

"Magic? Are you kidding me?" Rensuji shouts, "Do we look like wizards to you?"

"As a matter of fact-"

His words got cut off when he is suddenly gets thrown off the wall by a boulder crashing into him.

Rensuji looks beside him and sees a fading grayish aura from her right hand, "Kourtney, you-"

Yet an answer was not given to him as she utters what the trio didn't expect, "Stone Magic: Rock falls"

A mirage of rocks crush down towards each of the enemies surrounding them. Defense ready, they were unscathed and prepares an offensive attack towards the caster.

"Stone Magic: Stone Sword" a blade made out of stone appears at her right hand and she swings it around the incoming attackers.

She got all of them and leads the still confused trio out of the hall. Once outside, she said,

"They won't be able to follow us for a while unless a backup comes, until then your queries now! And hurry up"

With no time to waste, Hiroshi ask, "Your a magic royal, aren't you?"

"Yes, technically a temporary one"

"So magics are really real?" Rensuji's turn to ask

"Yes, more so than you think. Only those in the hierarchy are blessed with an immense one"

"Royalty... So you're-"

"I am but was hidden here for my safety" Kourtney interrupts Hiroshi, "I can't believe I had to let out the secret now" she mutters

"But that's not important now, we have to take them out" she continue

"But how?" Hina ask, "We don't have any magics at all"

"As a matter of fact you do, it's still yet to awaken. I'm not sure how it evolved but being around a royalty, it makes a lot of sense"

"Surely, you mean by being near you? Cause there's no way someone between us three are royalty" Rensuji wonders

"Technically, there is" she responds

"Who?"

"Him"

They all turn towards where she's pointing at and couldn't help but get shock except for the one being point at.

"I'm surprised you're not shock at the fact that you are a royalty, Vience, seeing as your friends are" Kourtney comments

"I already had a hunch after I accidentally read the book of magic royals that my sis have at her room and looking back at the past events, it does makes a lot of sense now" he responds

"EHH?!" both Hina and Rensuji said in unison

As far as they want to uncover all the information they have, they won't be able to when the hooded people starts to gather up around them.

"It's time to use those powers now" Kourtney suggest

"Easier said than done" Rensuji responds, "How are we supposed to activate the thing we were unaware of until now?"
