"You are ugly? So what? What's important is your role is big in the battle and you are helping so much." 

~

"Yeah-yeah, I knew that. Geez, why is Lady Jeanne told me to be in your care?" 

~

"You are like, can transform into any creature you have touched, right? So, why not touch some handsome man and transform into them? Oh, right, that would be a problem if you and the person you transform meet." 

~

"We are going to conquest the Northeast. Finally, I can go away from you. Take care, you ugly Alexander."

~

[Hey, Ugly Alexander. How have you been? I heard that you conquest a corrupted kingdom on your own. Isn't that a great? You finally made your own way to become a great man. Hey, you see, it's a little unexpected, but I have become a mother!]

Eria / Palace of Fafnir 

Current Timeline /

"Arlene!"

Cinderella leap back to dodge Skadi's swing. 

"Hahaha! You are talking big yet are so weak! You better be grateful it's not your face that I rip!"

Cinderella's attack did not mean to kill Arlene. It was just a warning and stopped their movement temporarily.

With Skadi's skill as a Knight-priest, it was easy for her to heal Arlene's wounds. But there was something that Skadi cannot heal.

"It's better the face."

"Huh?"

Arlene said something to responds Cinderella's arrogance. Although he did not hear it. 

"It's better the face."

Arlene keeps whining over something. That made Cinderella curious. 

"Meh, save your complain for later. I am going to finish my business first."

The last line of Fafnir's defence has been destroyed. There is no longer anything that can stop Cinderella from moving forward.

That's what he thought.

But he needs to instantly turned around after having felt an immense pressure from an unknown creature. 

"Where did you come from?"

A dark, armored, winged, 40m size giant lizard. A black dragon. A catastrophe level of threat. 

"Nggrooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!"

The immense roar just now stopped the wind, the time, the movement of everything. 

It scares every soul being in the nearby. It warns the watchers that observe from far away. It woke the red dragon, who had been sleeping for a long time. 

Fortunately with his power, Cinderella can enter to inside the palace to take cover. 

"If I'm not, my ears must be broken."

Cinderella was still lucky. But that didn't apply to Skadi and Arlene, who were close to the black dragon.

Skadi managed to get both of them behind a pole, but her two hands could only protect one head, so she gave up her two ears to protect Arlene. Now her ears are bleeding.

That was okay. The wound can be healed. The important thing is they need to get away from there. Because the black dragon was about to breathe fire to the palace. 

Fwoosh. The black dragon breathes blackish red fire. 

The structure of the palace made of special material that cannot be broken easily. Even Cinderella's attacks that were launched earlier only left a slight mark on the castle.

However, the line of breath of blackish red fire destroyed the palace. It made the refugee hiding inside the castle come out.

"Why in hell you can transform into that thing when you haven't touched it?!!"

Cinderella was really mad at Alexander. 

In the First War of Sin and Virtue, Alexander didn't participate nor even get close to the battlefield. He did nothing. Or he did? Considered that Alexander can transform into any creature.

Whatever that was, Cinderella had to deal with the black dragon, that in the past, it needs the Sword Saint, Spear Saint, Troy, and Yamato to deal with it. 

Soul Saint himself can deal with the enormous dragon. But, he is not in the place in the meantime. Summoning him also could endanger the Saint. So, it's do or die for Cinderella. 

"Nggroooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaa!!"

The dragon flapping its wings. Then fly to the sky. 

Before it flies high, Cinderella launched multiple attacks to the dragon. Only to be ignored by the dragon.

A simple attack, even though there were a lot, did nothing to the great dragon. 

The dragon casually gave a counter-attack with the blackish-red fire breath. 

Cinderella flew higher to the sky so the fire breath did not reach him. 

The dragon stopped its fire breathe to catch up with Cinderella. 

"You fool! You came right at me to the sky! My territory!"

Cinderella's Arts is cloud bending. Combining control of the elements of wind and water, Cinderella can create his own cloud.

However, the sky is the home of the clouds. Cinderella doesn't need to create his own cloud. He can control the clouds, he can control the sky with his hands. 

"Feel my wrath! Feel the rage of the sky!"

Cinderella gathered a lot of clouds, making them turn black, giving birth to thunder and lightning. 

Their enemy is the godly creature, who is also called the king of the sky.

"[Cloud Arts Ultimate from Beauty: Sky Fall]!"

Cinderella brings down the sky; a line of black clouds falls down to the black dragon. 

All the people and creatures in Eria watched that fight of dragon and sky. Those who were fighting stopped their fight. Those who were frightened stopped praying. 

"Stop! I said, STOP!"

The sky keeps falling down, but the thing its fall on keeps on moving forward with breathing fire. 

The dragon Alexander did not and will not lose to the sky.

Eria / Back of Palace of Moccus

"Daughter, back to the palace, and run."

Jeanne told her daughter to run from the scene from the battle. 

"But, mother!"

She said that when she had lost her left hand and heavily injured. 

"You cannot run. You cannot win this fight. That sissy guy might be dead because the Dark Evil Dragon appearance. But I won't lose to you."

On the other side, Blade still fresh and ready to take out targets and target's guardian.

"Do it, honey! I don't know if I can kill him with this last attack. So, you have to run and survive. At least until he fully awake."

Frida confused at first of why her mother suddenly mentioned someone. After she found out and understood the meaning, she finally obeyed her mother's orders. Of course, a rain down through her cheeks as she leaves her mother behind. 

"You are going to use the [Javelin of Light], right? Don't bother trying. I have faced a user of the same skill in the past. It wouldn't be any different even if you did."

Jeanne fixes her posture. With a body already fragile and flooded with blood, Jeanne has not lost her pride as a Saint.

"Do you have any last words to say to your daughter?"

"You used to be a Modesty, but aren't you feeling to pride in yourself? Are you my daughter too?"

That was a nice counter from Jeanne. 

After taking that word, Blade no longer feeling pride. He now fully focuses to his target. 

Meanwhile, Jeanne, taking a deep breath before performing her last attack. 

"We finally could meet again, Roger. With the same way and the same reason."

Jeanne muttering something. 

Blade did not know what it was. Maybe it was a chant to perform [Javelin of Light].

"I'm not talking much, but it was a fact that you cannot "

Blade stops talking because Jeanne suddenly disappears from his sight. Jeanne's disappearance was replaced with a *clank* sound of metal falling to the ground.

The Saint's Spear and the right blade of Twin's God Blade. Unknowingly fell to the ground. 

The surprising things don't stop there. The right side of Blade's body was destroyed somehow.

Blade finally felt the damage after he take a look at it. He fell to the ground as he lost conscious.
