*MAY BE DISTURBING SO YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!*

"Are you making fun of me?" The emperor angrily looked down to see that Duke Reynard was starting to make fun of him in front of his advisers and guards who stood by to watch.

"Hmph, you were never meant to be emperor since birth. The real ruler was meant to be your brother." Duke Reynard confessed, knowing that it was indeed the truth that no other could talk about in front of the current Mireraweth emperor.

"You dare to bring up a man of the past!" The emperor rushed down taking out his sword to personally kill Duke Reynard with his patience running out with every step taken towards Duke Reynard. Raising his sword, he stood in front of the Duke who he thought would be one of his loyal dogs which turned out to bite him back.

Duke Reynard waited for the sword to cut his head off, but there was nothing that came to him. He looked up to see a cloaked figure with the same mask as the individual they had tried to use and make a deal with. 'Why are they here???' Duke Reynard did not understand what was going on at this point.

"Such a nuisance. That little brat wanted me to come to save you so badly." Duke Reynard couldn't believe that she would save him. He then saw that her hand was made of nothing, but ice. "Surprised? This body is just a vessel that I'm using. The little brat kept pestering me to come to save you both."

Ice instantly formed from the emperor's sword that then traveled onto the emperor's hand. He yelled, feeling his single right hand and arm turn to ice that then shattered in front of everyone there to witness it turn horrific.

"Aaaaahhhhh!!!! What did you do?!?!?" The emperor shouted with his whole right side aching from the ice that still clung coldly onto his flesh and bone.

"Oh my, such a weak emperor." The individual walked up to the emperor who fell to his knees while holding his serious injury. "Let's just say that this is your punishment for not keeping your word. Mostly, when you are from the royal family who should keep every single word accounted for." The individual had grabbed onto Duke Reynard and then rushed to the unconscious Leo without anyone being able to catch her swift move. "I'll be taking these two. They will be fun for my... experiments."

She laughed, disappearing from the throne room with everyone confused with how they could enter and escape so easily. "Find them! Don't let them escape this kingdom!!!" The emperor angrily held his arm that was gone... forever.

Duke Reynard and Leo were lifted onto a Moonlight Bat which stared deeply down, seeing the two humans placed on him. [Why are these two on me?] Blizzard asked, seeing how Mila was also using an ice body vessel to move around when it was not the safest thing to use in this dire situation that they were currently in.

"No time to explain. Best to take them to Maedda kingdom before things get out of hand if we continue to stay here." Mila had Blizzard about ready to fly off when Duke Reynard held onto her ice-cold vessel's hand.

"What about my daughter? How is she? Where is she?" Duke Reynard questioned, fearing that his beloved daughter would be left behind or possibly harmed while he was not by her side to protect her.

"Don't worry about her. She is safe. She will be at Maedda kingdom for the time being." Mila knew that her father would worry about her, but she needed to finish a few things before she went to Maedda kingdom to meet up with them. "Blizzard, go." Mila had Blizzard take her two important people before she could no longer get them out of the Mireraweth Kingdom that was likely starting their way to look for her, her family, and people.

Her ice body was soon shattered using up the last of its pieces to keep the vessel together with Mila coughing out blood onto the wooden tile floor below her. She gladly had Luce taken by force by one of the Moonlight Bats that dragged her out of the clinic. Meanwhile, Tim and Thelma were there trying to heal her from sustaining too many heavy internal injuries. Tim was using his mana to keep Mila's soul from going astray and never returning to her body. 'Everything is going well so far.' Mila sighed, letting the two people do their job in healing her for the duration of the time.
