As the battle was taking place in the capital, deep within the palace belonging to the king, the master was sitting on a large round bed that stood onto of a higher floor where Anderea was standing while on one knee beside her was Marx, the Wizards Kings main advisor. He had two women by his side as there were a few hooded knights on the floor around. "Anderea! Where is the Wizard King?" He had shouted, causing Anderea to look up at a middle-age man with short, golden brown hair, a handlebar mustache that curls at the ends, and small, pointed goatee that also curls. He was wearing a striped doublet with alternating dark and light purple sections separated by white lines. The long sleeves have lace at the wrists. He also wears a pair of trunk hose that have a similar pattern as his doublet, as well as a pair of white tights and dark purple shoes. Over all this, he wears a fur-lined, green royal mantle and a yellow cravat. "During an emergency like this, he should be the first to rush to the side of Augustus Kira Clover XIII, King of the Clover Kingdom." He was stuffing his face completely calm. "His first priority should be to protect me. That is... the most important duty of the most powerful mage in the kingdom, the Wizard King!"
"You are correct as aways, Uncle." The young woman had spoken up to the man. Calling him quite familiar, this having been due to her mother being the young sister of the king. "However, you should not fear as the advisors of the Wizard King stand in his place to protect her." She came to inform him, lifting her arms that motioned behind her where more knights were but kneeling.
"Curse that Julius. He's gotten full of himself because his authority equals mine when we're at war, hasn't he?" He was speaking out loud, not caring for his words. "Honestly... I'm the only leader of the Clover Kingdom!"
"Yes, you right." Anderea answered him grinning ear to ear. However, despite the smile across her face, he thoughts were of annoyance at this man who was supposed to be a king. He was no king, just a selfish man who cares for no one but himself. He could careless about the safety of the people being attack or the Knights that are fighting hard in order to protect them.

After having enough of being in the same room at the disgusting king, Anderea had made he was outside at the bottom of the tower she had just been in. She was looking up to the sky with her head throbbing due to the King's annoying voice. "Marx..." She called up to the man that had followed her out.
"Yes, Lady Anderea?" He had come to knee before her, since she was also royalty.
"Any words from Julius yet?" She had asked him, since he had been trying none stop after the attack had began.
"No, ma'am." But it had been of no use.
"Seriously..." A large sigh had escaped her lips as her head tilted back. "He might be a weirdo, but he should know by now that the Capital is under attack." Just as Anderea was trying to think of reasons for Julius' absence...
"Lady Anderea! Sir Marx!" She had been pulled towards someone's shouting. They were dashing right for them, completely out of breath. "I have a report!"

A few moment came to passed and once again Anderea was standing before the king, along with Marx... "We have a report, Your Majesty." Who was informing the King about the report they just received. "Most of the attackers have been dealt with, it seems."
"Took them long enough." But the king didn't seem to careless. "The Magic Knights need to work harder. And? Where's the Wizard King?" The question had been asked once again as the selfish king had laid across the bed he was on, his head on one of the woman while the other had his feet. "Why hasn't he come to my side?"
"Before the attack began, he had left for an important mission." The one to have answered the question was Anderea, as she was standing there smiling.
"Honestly... There's no way it could be more important than me." She was standing there, trying hard not to lost her smile while looking to the man. However, it soon stop not because of the king but by something else. Her head had swung around as she was able to feel a large surge magic in several different locations at the exact moment. "What is the matter, Anderea?" The King had noticed her sudden change in behaviour, but instead of answering him she took off out the room onto the balcony.
"Zel...?" Anderea was looking off to the , where she had sent the Silva siblings. "Why is..." Then turned off towards East District before her eyes come to shift towards the northwest and finally to the west... "...their mana is gone...?" Anderea couldn't understand why almost of the powerful magic knights' mana had disappeared. The only thing to explain this was them no longer in the capital. The large surge of magic she had sensed a moment before everyone disappeared must have been spatial magic, which teleported them somewhere. Just as she was deep in thought, trying to understand how this was possible... suddenly she was now unable to sense Fuegoleon either. Despite him having been there a second ago. It was then when her pendent had come into her view, causing her eyes to widen. "It can't be!"
