~Victoria's PoV~

I yawned then I looked at the window, "Morning...", God! It's morning?! I slept at 3 pm yesterday! I looked at the time 8:12 am... I felt like my body became lifeless.... "17 hours of sleep...", I said with a lifeless tone. I got out of bed and went to the living room and saw Arsen-sensei reading a letter then he noticed me.

"Oh! Victoria! Ohayo!", Arsen-sensei greeted me cheerfully.

"Ohayo.", I greeted him back with a lifeless tone.

"Victoria, you've got mail.", with that I quickly changed attitude.

"Really? Is it from I think is it?", Arsen-sensei tilted his head. I face palmed. "Is it from Archbishop Alec?", I said emotionlessly then Arsen-sensei smiled and handed me the letter. I grabbed the letter and immediately open it. It said :

Dear Victoria,

We found Jirou's whereabouts. It seems like Jirou's mother sent him to Jaquaña, in the territory of Demon Lord Shedan. Shedan is a powerful man, he knows every thing. He knows each and every one of our eyes so we can't send someone there. He doesn't know that we have a connection so, if you can, go there to Jaquaña and try to find Jirou. Your the only one who I could ask, so please. Send me a letter if you accept. To go to Jaquaña, summon the gate of Pure Destruction... Sorry, I don't know how.

Be Good,

Archbishop Alec Daisuki

"Arsen-sensei, I'll be going to Jaquaña. Please let me.", I faced Arsen-sensei.

"It's about that Jirou-guy, right?", I flinched.

"H-How-How'd you know?!", I stammered a little.

"Alec also sent me a letter asking if you could go.", Arsen-sensei raised his hand revealing the letter he was talking about.

"So can I?", Arsen-sensei nodded.

"What are you going to were? Shedan is a demon lord and you're going to his territory. There will be demons there.", I thought then remembered something.

"Remember the time NaRiaTsu went to this cosplay convention. Treena picked out something from there that is for me. I think it's perfect.", I walked to my room and approached my closet. I opened it and found the dress easily, I walked back to Arsen-sensei and showed it to him.

"I say, Treena is weird.", he reacted.

"I know right. But I think it's perfect.", Arsen-sensei nodded. I left and walked down the hall to my room and closed the door and the windows and quickly changed. I looked at the mirror and thought that it was perfect. But something was missing... Ah! I opened my closet, once more, and got this thing that covers your whole body and has a hood. (A/N : If you know Fairy Tail, the first appearance of future Lucy wore something near to that but Victoria's is a little longer.) I put it on and stared at myself in the mirror. My appearance was a perfect disguise. I grabbed the Spell PocketBook in my table and put it in my pocket. I grabbed my sheathed sword from my bed and placed it on my left side in my belt. Lastly, I opened my drawer and grabbed the box where I placed the necklace Jirou gave me. I opened it, took the necklace and wore it around my neck, I hid the necklace's heart under what I was wearing to avoid it getting seen. I walked down the hall approaching the main room.

"What do you say, Arsen-sensei?", I asked him, he then had his thumbs up. I walked to him and stopped at his back. I then embradpced him from behind. "Thanks for everything, sensei. Thank you for taking care of me until now.", my embrace became tighter and at spear fell down my cheek. I will miss my sensei, he took care of me when I was 7 until now that I'm 18. I will miss him and all my friends.

"Take care of yourself, Ria-chan.", I looked at him and he had his eyes closed with a full genuine smile with tears in his eyes. Sensei was always like a father to me. Being there when I need him. I also smiled back to him.

"Arsen-sensei, please take care of the letter that Archbishop Alec. And in case Treena, Herotsu, Tatsuki and the others come here and look for me, please tell them that I am currently out of the town. I need to go now.", I stood up and walked to the garden wth Arsen-sensei in my trail. When we got there, I took the spell pocketbook from my pocket and flipped its pages then stopped in the page where it is written 'Gate of Pure Destruction'.

"Shisha no tamashī ni yotte, watashi wa junsuina hakai no gēto o shōkan suru tame ni sore o shiyō! (By the souls of the dead, I use it to summon the Gate of Pure Destruction!)", with that, a portal that seems to be colored blood red. I faced Arsen-sensei once more and I bowed. "Arsen-sensei, I will come back for everything that happened to me here. Please don't forget about me.", I faced him and he has a smile. One last time, I hugged him. "Sayonara, chichi-sensei.", I whispered with some tears in my eyes while I hugged him tighter.

"Sayonara...", his voice was fading with a tone of sadness. I released him and bowed once more then I smiled at him. I then put on the hood and walked to the portal. I sighed then stepped in.

'The start of a new adventure.'
