ELYRIA — DIMENSION EIGHT
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1ikrZLvRb
"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."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgMk5IWSnB
"Despite this, I am absolutely convinced that Nyx remains alive and well."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzao3J7n0b
"And regarding Raji?" Cassius asked.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChLJQfEH2v
"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."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifXR6YpgKB
Cassius inquired, "What about the unknown entity?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiM3VsQco6
"The unknown entity, which appeared in Universe 8 approximately a thousand years ago, may be responsible for Raji's confinement."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBex9bXWtvn
"I see now. Nice report, Malphas."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2qiPIfkXD
"I don't deserve your praise, my lord," Malphas replied.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRl5OSCiusF
"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."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pUNlADfOA
"Now everything fits perfectly," Cassius smiled. "We shall pay them a visit soon."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWCmgyqBSd
Malphas, a messenger of Lord Cassius, tried breaking through the barriers but couldn’t.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGTeCcnJpZ
"One more thing, my lord..."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCdpHUXS84
"And what could that be?" Cassius smiled.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyaX9UxKrh
"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."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzlhUl5Q00
Cassius smiled once more, and this time he laughed.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡux23GC62Ca
"What is so important about Universe 8?, what are you hiding?."

UNIVERSE EIGHT — EARTH
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNz2rDEUpkM
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGPYaTvwEo
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oEwtwygO4
[SQUIRT]
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAy2uKaFwIy
Cassandra then touched her own breasts with her left hand, inquiring, "Why are they still small?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrMCEiMUsa
Lisanna reassured her, "Just give it some time."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKUnJNEBIp
"You said the exact same thing when I was 13, remember?" [SIGH]
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmW9qVmBfkx
Lisanna then stood Cassandra up and led her to bathe, having already prepared the water.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrNRLmQ9Dl
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFwExDw4Q8
[Hhhhhhh]
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOXCW6AnMy
This was not the first instance. He swiftly removed his hand and stood upright on the bed, terrified by Lisanna's presence.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxMeMkLSm7
“Goo… go… good morning,” he said, scared.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlQj2RYESX
“Time for your bath. What were you dreaming about this time, Phobos?”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuE6SB8TOmz
Phobos hastily woke Aristo, whose eyes met Lisanna's—causing his heart to race uncontrollably.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEHzFM2iX2
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:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKlKAOVOLf
“The hands moved on their own.”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBnO1RneJ9
Phobos made a grumpy face, acknowledging his mistake.

CARNAGE CRESCENT STREET — DARIA
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91xaFBPaLb
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hG2uHkhgs
The moment Phobos entered, she was overwhelmed, donning a vibrant, fiery red garment with intricate floral patterns.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzNyHExBuI
Hesper, aware of Zira’s infatuation, had created a clone of Phobos—one Zira couldn’t resist.

Hesper
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXO3goy0jIJ
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz99iKdF76o
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCKiPeApG8
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxzSqxCRuQ
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DXllR8IFj
After preparing breakfast, Hesper summoned Zira to eat.
Zira, dressed in her school attire, sat down and thanked her for the food.

11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxd4u6NR2y
The speech concluded, and the crowd applauded as Hesper descended from the platform.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B8PllW7Nu
As the students dispersed, Cassandra approached Hesper, her eyes shining with admiration.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7Qgf9E4Tn
“Hesper, your speech was breathtaking! As expected, you really embody the essence of Mystic Lythoria.”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwSTCCai5z
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiO07fPMW2
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.

The mighty slash used in slaying the Ferrodrakon had traveled deep into the earth... and cracked the ancient seal of one who had been trapped for hundreds of years.
