"So, now that we're alive and finally safe." Klaus began, readjusting his glasses once again. He turned over to Euanthe and pointed his finger at her forcefully. "You, Maiden of the Oracle, you'll be coming with us. Headquarters will surely be requesting for you." He claimed firmly, asserting his authority through his tone of voice.

Euanthe squeaked and jumped behind Asta, crouching with her knees up to her chest and her hands placed upon her head. "No! Hell no!I'm not going to the Golden Dawn! That is the last place I want to be!" She shouted, shaking her head rapidly. Klaus gasped dramatically, his glasses cracking due to him taking extreme offense.

"How dare you! The Golden Dawn is the elite, only nobles of extreme magical power can even dare enter! You should rejoice, considering how the Maiden of the Oracle doesn't even exert any mana despite all it's legends!" He shouted, as if scolding a five year old child. Hearing this, Yuno simply rolled his eyes as Mimosa just smiled.

Luck widened his eyes in realization, his mouth forming an 'o.' "Now that I think about it, she really doesn't exert any mana!" He exclaimed, smiling wider. "I'm disappointed~ I wanted to see if she could fight!"

Black lines stretched down on Euanthe's face as shivers ran up her spine. Yikes, he's scary.

Asta tilted his head, raising an eyebrow in a speculative type of way. "Actually, what is this Oracle Maiden you're blabbering about, four-eyes?" He questioned. Euanthe widened her now lime-gold colored eyes, taking her hands off of her head and peeking out from behind Asta. 'Actually, what is the Maiden of the Oracle? There was no such thing in the manga or the anime about any Oracle Maiden. Did I mess up its storyline that badly?' She bit her lip.

"The Maiden of the Oracle was said to be the one who had alerted the first Sorcery Emperor of the demon long before it had even appeared. Resulting in him building up an enormous amount of magic power in advance in order to defeat the demon. She had foretold many devastating events, having a unique mana that specialized in foretelling the future or the past. Eventually saving multiple people from harm." The white haired magic knight cleared his throat, pausing to catch his breath.

"Though, a hundred years after the battle, she disappeared. All traces of her existence wiped from reality. All but one note that was written; do not look for me. With some sort of symbol that resembled a torch," The Golden Dawn magic knight pointed at the space between his eyebrows and then pointed at the frail looking woman once more. "Much like that symbol inbetween her eyebrows, that was the symbol the Oracle Maiden had left in that note."

Euanthe unconsciously touched the spacing between her thick eyebrows, biting the insides of her cheek. Fuck, I've messed this storyline up bad. She thought to herself, mentally slapping herself for dying in her original world. This was exactly like one of those 'I'm Stuck in Naruto' fanfictions that she had read from time to time.

(i mean, dying was really tempting so don't blame me...)

Noelle spoke up, having just obediently listened to the senior's retelling. "And you seriously believe that she's the Oracle Maiden? How? I can't even feel any mana from her!" The Silva royal claimed, crossing her arms and shaking her head in her usual stuck-up fashion. "How can she predict the future even without any magic?"

Euanthe's eye twitched, 'Noelle, I love you, but of course I don't have any mana! I'm not even from here!' She retorted angrily in her thoughts, her fists clenching with irritation. "Wait," Yuno had called out, immediately silencing all other participants in the conversation. "Asta, don't you remember? She created that anti-magic sword out of her skin, the one she gave to you." He smoothly reminded, stepping calmly into the exchange.
