ELYRIA — DIMENSION EIGHT
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLic0ntWPk
"Nyx has been residing in Universe 8 for an exceedingly long period—surpassing a megayear—during which time Nyx has been seemingly inactive. However, Nyx's presence is gradually being effaced from the universe, an occurrence that is both inexplicable and indefatigable."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLJVMpOR6f
"Despite this, I am absolutely convinced that Nyx remains alive and well."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRNOaWcapb
"And regarding Raji?" Cassius asked.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXVTMg5GA7
"Raji... about that—there is no indication of his whereabouts. It is plausible that he has been sealed off, and the only individual capable of wielding such immense power to seal him would be Nyx."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc39kvCALT
Cassius inquired, "What about the unknown entity?"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UNpck0W2e
"The unknown entity, which appeared in Universe 8 approximately a thousand years ago, may be responsible for Raji's confinement."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbA08qbmgW
"I see now. Nice report, Malphas."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt3ly0Ff1P
"I don't deserve your praise, my lord," Malphas replied.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXCOxOWPzu
"We are uncertain whether Nyx or the unknown entity is accountable for this situation, as the universe itself has been sealed off, and the sealing pattern suggests Nyx's involvement.
The seal bears Nyx's signature, and the powers underlying it are incomprehensible, comprising a combination of diverse energies."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡly3fkFmgbQ
"Now everything fits perfectly," Cassius smiled. "We shall pay them a visit soon."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49lnECaDAo
Malphas, a messenger of Lord Cassius, tried breaking through the barriers but couldn’t.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJpoE6fKJu
"One more thing, my lord..."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8MQ5CEuSH
"And what could that be?" Cassius smiled.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdi5NFwLFX
"During my observation, a small crack was found in the barrier—the same barrier I wasn’t able to break through. The barrier covering the entire universe, which had been placed by Nyx."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDxVdW7QrN
Cassius smiled once more, and this time he laughed.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBfsxFBVJ4
"What is so important about Universe 8?, what are you hiding?."

UNIVERSE EIGHT — EARTH
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtzAWzkeVC
Meanwhile, on Earth, Nyx, holding a cup of wine and smiling, sensed that the barrier encompassing this universe had been breached by Malphas.
She was fully aware that a small crack had also been made by a girl whose blade was able to destroy not only the moon but also fracture the seal.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxat7Sf7sc
Nyx pondered,
"What is your next move, Cassius?

Lisanna awakened Cassandra from slumber, and Cassandra, with no care in the world, reached out and gently squeezed Lisanna’s rounded breasts.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQs3H7qjCP
[SQUIRT]
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WdEsGZP1U
Cassandra then touched her own breasts with her left hand, inquiring, "Why are they still small?"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUelApgAvgF
Lisanna reassured her, "Just give it some time."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfFNCsyd7j
"You said the exact same thing when I was 13, remember?" [SIGH]
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiBiXQxltz
Lisanna then stood Cassandra up and led her to bathe, having already prepared the water.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxECHx7YIu5
As Lisanna ascended the stairs to wake the boys, she entered their room and leaned over to touch Aristo’s face. Phobos' hand inadvertently struck Lisanna’s breasts, sensing the softness.
He grasped them again, unsure of what they were, and squeezed for a moment before realizing they belonged to Lisanna.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaP6cA5WFTn
[Hhhhhhh]
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ728th9rZHW
This was not the first instance. He swiftly removed his hand and stood upright on the bed, terrified by Lisanna's presence.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgooja1quU
“Goo… go… good morning,” he said, scared.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAfcBmwADD
“Time for your bath. What were you dreaming about this time, Phobos?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnNKgcWCVH
Phobos hastily woke Aristo, whose eyes met Lisanna's—causing his heart to race uncontrollably.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlH4Rj8v1Ec
Lisanna’s appearance was mesmerizing, with an alluring gaze that was difficult to ignore. Her body was a tool she wielded expertly, capable of effortlessly manipulating others. She exited the room, leaving Phobos to wonder if he had indeed touched her breasts again, to which Lisanna playfully responded:
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bT6lL9pef
“The hands moved on their own.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4q8aJi3bwv
Phobos made a grumpy face, acknowledging his mistake.

CARNAGE CRESCENT STREET — DARIA
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOnvwm3dey
On Carnage Crescent, a bustling street in the Kingdom of Daria, Zira was reluctant to bathe, prompting her sister Hesper to tease her about Phobos bathing her instead.
Zira, shy around Phobos, had filled her room with drawings of him.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L61gLuEPe
The moment Phobos entered, she was overwhelmed, donning a vibrant, fiery red garment with intricate floral patterns.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinFbWQxMt3
Hesper, aware of Zira’s infatuation, had created a clone of Phobos—one Zira couldn’t resist.

Hesper
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOuA8HBEvh
She’s a stunningly beautiful young woman with a unique and striking appearance. Her most distinctive features are the two small horns protruding from her forehead, curved and smooth like polished ivory. Her hair is radiant white, falling in soft, silky waves down her back like a river of moonlight. Her eyes are a piercing green, shimmering like emeralds in the light, with a sharp, intelligent glint that misses nothing.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7vSGyJEc4
Her body is sleek and toned, with a sensual, hourglass figure that’s both feminine and athletic. The size of her chest was neither too large nor too small—just a normal, regular size.
Her skin has a luminous, porcelain complexion, with a subtle sheen that hints at a quiet, otherworldly glow. Just like her name implies—Evening Star—she moves with a confident, fluid grace, her every step and gesture exuding a sense of self-assured poise and effortless style.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsp0hm72a8
Despite her youth, she carries herself with a mature, worldly air, as if she’s already lived a lifetime of secrets. Her smile is a dazzling, mischievous flash of white teeth, hinting at a playful, adventurous spirit lurking beneath her alluring, ethereal beauty.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBz8sTDzXG
She’s the kind of woman who thinks things through and doesn’t rely on brute strength. She's said to be Cassandra’s closest friend and her equal in strength.
When it comes to sagacity and acuity, Hesper is superior.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Dj6ul1CWu
After preparing breakfast, Hesper summoned Zira to eat.
Zira, dressed in her school attire, sat down and thanked her for the food.

The speech concluded, and the crowd applauded as Hesper descended from the platform.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnDk73alzx
As the students dispersed, Cassandra approached Hesper, her eyes shining with admiration.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusXCMae77d
“Hesper, your speech was breathtaking! As expected, you really embody the essence of Mystic Lythoria.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HH7lLHk6u
Hesper smiled, her lips curling upward in a gentle, enigmatic smile.
“Thanks, Cassandra.”

Meanwhile, in the shadows, a figure watched them—Malphas, a being of unknown origin, had been observing the world, focusing especially on Cassandra and her brothers.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vc6rOXYTf
Through the cracks in the barrier, he slipped in a pinch of himself, forming a dark matter aura in the shape of a being—watching over them, its energy undetected by Nyx or anyone using detection techniques.

Deep within the Jural Forest, a dark aura began seeping from the ground—attracting monsters within the region, empowering them, and reshaping their very souls.
