"What?"

The ambiance was heavier. Gone was the urge to run. Fearlessness, authority and opposability against the monsters after the ham was all they could see and read from the Prince. His teeth were gnashing, his dilated eyes were glaring daggers at the trembling girl who hid behind Damien. The glowing orbs were dangerous, it's not something to meddled with.

For a mere demoiselle, she sure have the guts to make a ham and make it a bait to them. An attitude the Royal Magnates have. Everyone in the palace knows how manipulative the Magnates were and how their insidious schemes plays god victory. Sure there are manipulation abilities but the Royal Magnates plays it different. It's a natural skill from the famous clan, and it's indeed perilous for someone who can be easily played upon.

The Royal Magnates enjoys playing god. It runs in the blood of the clan, and it makes them powerful, vicious and clever. Like making a ham to bait the enemy, and once the adversary bites the bait, the manipulation begins. Sure she doesn't have any idea how she's being able to easily manipulate them, she doesn't know how her words play and make them rouse to what she wants them to do. She doesn't realize that, and that's because she's a young dumb demoiselle. What more if she improves?

So the young Prince of Eufrata couldn't take how she managed to make his blood boil by her annoying seeming challenging words. He couldn't step back, she always shoot their pride like shit. What clan does she belong anyway? Why does she have this aura of a Magnate? Or she's just unconsciously putting a ham because she's scared? Whatever, Van made up his mind. They're going to fight, his ego couldn't take it.

"Van?"

"Cast a barrier around her. We'll attack the monsters." Prince Van ordered.

"What?" Damien queries, "I don't know how to cast a barrier! I am not a freaking pure mage!"

"I am not repeating myself." Van said and faced the monsters which are now getting themselves bigger and powerful.

Walang nagawa si Damien. Ibinaba niya si Celestial, gayunpaman ay hindi niya ito nalagyan ng halang dahil hindi siya marunong. Only Elysian do pure mage magics in the palace since she's trained in wide range or something in a place that's away from the enemy and she would just fight with her magical abilities. While the guys were trained in magical and physical combats and other short range activities.

Celestial grabbed Damien's hand when he let her go. He did not cast a barrier around her, she's probably scared because they'll attack and she'll be left behind. But Damien grabbed his hand back and glared at her with an it's-all-your-fault look.

"Echelons, let's go." Said Van authoritatively and pointed his sharp sword to her, "And you! You better stay here before I let the Eufrata mages chase you!"

And with that they fall in line with Van at the middle, Damien at his right and Damon at the left. Their two-edged sharp swords were now blinking like a luxurious gem. Unfortunately, blood will topple and cover it soon.

"Damon, demise the gravity. I'll go with the basilisk. Damien, you take the serpent." Van commanded.

"Got it."

"Now!"

"Gravity demise!"

And with that, everything around floated. The gravity was demised once again in a single flick. The monsters were now floating and thrashing around while Damon and Van places themselves at the right position to attack.

Van was the one to attack first. He flew to the basilisk's head and tried slicing it in half but he was not successful. The basilisk thrashed around, it rolled back against the water and Van struggled at the top since they're floating in the air.
