Amid the chaos and turmoil of the guards, Velian stood resolute, his eyes blazing with determination as he guarded the grand doors of the library. The air crackled around him, charged with magical energy, as he prepared for the onslaught of soldiers who sought to breach the sacred halls of the library and disturb Daphnia and Lucy. The scent of burning embers filled the air, a testament to his formidable offensive magic.

The soldiers, armed to the teeth and bolstered by their numbers, charged forward with relentless determination. Their weapons clashed against Velian's magical barriers, but they shattered like fragile glass, unable to withstand the might of his power.

"Come, foolish Union dogs, I will show you why you shouldn't mess with my girls!" Velian bellowed, his voice resonating with manic glee. "Witness the might of the real magic,!"

He unleashed a torrent of fiery bolts, each one finding its mark with unerring precision.

"Ahhhhh~ my face is melting!"

"Someone help me! My body!"

Soldiers cried out in agony as they were consumed by the searing flames. Their armour melted like wax, leaving behind charred remnants.

One soldier, his face etched with determination, lunged at Velian, his sword raised high. But Velian merely laughed, a mad, joyous sound that echoed through the battlefield.

"Such pitiful attempts," he taunted, his voice laced with cruel amusement. "Is this the best you can do? Union dogs? Where's your parasite? Ask them to come here, I will burn every single one of them,"

With a flick of his wrist, Velian summoned a swirling vortex of wind. It lifted the soldier off his feet, spinning him around helplessly before hurling him into the ranks of his comrades.

More soldiers surged forward, their numbers seemingly endless. Yet Velian held his ground, weaving intricate patterns in the air with his True King's Aura preventing them from attacking him. Arcane symbols glowed in vibrant hues, and a shockwave rippled through the ground, knocking the soldiers off balance.

"Still, don't give up? Fine, come, one by one, I will send you to the devil," Velian said while taunting them which caused the guards to get irritated ad this young man act all cocky.

They lunged at him, their swords slashing through the air with lethal intent. But Velian danced between their strikes, his movements fluid and graceful. He evaded their attacks effortlessly, his laughter growing louder and more maniacal with each passing moment.

"Pathetic! Your feeble attempts are nothing but child's play!" Velian jeered, his voice filled with unhinged delight.

As the battle raged on, Velian's laughter became a symphony of madness. His offensive magic intensified, each spell more devastating than the last. Fire engulfed the battlefield, lightning crackled through the air, and gusts of wind sent soldiers flying like leaves in a storm.

Exhausted and battered, the soldiers began to retreat, their spirits broken by the overwhelming power and deranged laughter of Velian. With a final, bone-chilling cackle, he watched as they fled, leaving behind a battlefield littered with fallen comrades.

Velian stood alone, his body covered in sweat and dirt, yet his eyes gleamed with triumph.

"Ohh~ looks like the teal challenge starts now," Velian muttered as he saw demonic-looking beings coming at him, which caused him to put up a little grin knowing that they are coming to face their deaths.

While Velian was busy going crazy on the battlefield, Daphnia and Lucy had their own work to do as they were in a hurry to find a clue about the mastermind behind this chaos.

"Daphnia, look!" Lucy exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with excitement. She rushed over to Daphnia, clutching a book that resembled an ancient album. Its weathered pages and delicate cover hinted at its historical significance, instantly capturing Daphnia's interest.

Curiosity piqued, and Daphnia reached out to take a glimpse. As she flipped through the album's pages, her eyes widened in realization. The contents within held a significant clue to their long-awaited pursuit. She knew they had stumbled upon something extraordinary.

"So it is true," Daphnia murmured, her voice filled with awe and wonder.

"This royal family does indeed trace its origins back to the heroic bloodline." Her eyes focused intently on the words inscribed on the first page of the album, absorbing every detail.

Lucy leaned closer, her curiosity getting the better of her.

"What does it say? Who are they? And what does it mean for our mission?"

Daphnia glanced up, a mysterious smile dancing upon her lips.

"According to this ancient record," she began, her voice laced with excitement,

"the royal family that currently reigns is said to be descended from thr lineage of legendary heroes. Their blood carries the legacy of great warrior who fought against unimaginable evils lord in ages past and they have the authority of the remains of the demon lord, none of the royal members are allowed to get in contact with those cells, but-."

Lucy's eyes widened with anticipation. "Does that mean...?" she trailed off, her voice barely a whisper.

Daphnia nodded, her eyes shining with determination.

"Yes, Lucy. If we can prove their true lineage and unlock the secrets hidden within their heritage, we may be able to restore balance to our war-torn land. We have stumbled upon the key to our mission's success!"

"This current royal family is trying to revive the demon lord, and bring chaos again, and by doing that they will reawaken the hero,"

Lucy felt happy knowing that her guess was right, and she knew without a demon supporting they won't be even able to touch those cells, since it corrupt humans.

A surge of adrenaline coursed through their veins as the weight of their discovery sank in. The fate of their kingdom rested on their shoulders, and the path ahead would not be easy. But they were ready to embark on this noble quest, armed with newfound knowledge and a steadfast bond.

"Look for more clues! We can't let Velian fight all alone, once we finish here let quickly go and help him, I have my trust in him, but it won't be bad to be cautious," Daphnia said and quickly put the book in her storage ring.

Lucy also went back and went through the whole room searching for anything else, and they were not disappointed about deciding to stay longer, since they found many interesting things in this room.
