Celesia Ryoger, the granddaughter of the greatest water powers user and one of the founders of the Shinia Empire. The first princess of the Grand Duchy, she grew up in a noble family surrounded by power and authority. However, when she reached the age of three, her power unexpectedly exploded, leading to the tragic death of her mother, shaking the foundations of the duchy.

After this incident, Celesia was imprisoned for seven years, treated as a tool for fighting monsters, deprived of a normal life and the warmth of family. These harsh years turned her into a rebellious girl, bearing the burden of her untamed powers.

Until the day the Emperor himself summoned her. The words echoed in her mind: "What does the Empire suddenly want with me?" She began to wonder what awaited her after years of darkness and isolation.

And so begins our story, Celesia's journey to explore her abilities and confront the destiny fate has laid out for her, in the heart of the great Shinia Empire.

"Really! Speak," Edward said curiously, looking at Celesia.

"According to the information analysis, the ones responsible for the incident were the King and Queen of Shadows. The shadows that attacked the carriage were a skill of Shadow Serra possessed by the King, while the fire and explosion traces belong to the Crimson Wind Serra of the Queen," Celesia said seriously.

The Duke looked at Celesia and said, "In fact, the Emperor already discovered this."

Celesia turned to the Emperor, astonished, while he greeted her with a knowing smile.

"Richard, it seems your daughter possesses a sharp intellect," Edward said enthusiastically, looking at the Duke.

"Of course, our family is known for its sharp intelligence," Richard said proudly, adjusting his glasses.

Celesia interrupted, "So, what do you plan to do, Your Highness?"

"I have requested the Duke of the East to send knights to the borders to monitor enemy movements, and based on the results, we will take action," Edward replied seriously.

"Don't worry, Princess, we will handle the Prince's return," Richard said, trying to reassure her.

"Very well, I will leave now," Celesia said as she left the office, returning to her own office.

She entered the office with signs of concern on her face.

"What happened?" Mirabella asked suddenly.

Celesia sat down and said, "It turned out that the Emperor knows everything. All we have to do now is wait for the reports from the Duke of the East."

"Well, after all, it's natural for the Emperor to know, he is the smartest in the Empire," Lina said as she poured tea for Celesia.

"But I expect you to take action soon, Your Highness," Mirabella said, staring at Celesia.

Celesia responded with a smile, "Indeed, you are scary; it feels like you are reading my thoughts."

"You could say I'm good at reading your next moves," Mirabella replied, taking a sip of tea.

"Haha, you are amazing," Celesia laughed, and Mirabella joined her.

Meanwhile, back with Henry, Alan came to him every day, launching attacks on him and then returning to the palace.

"If this continues, I might suffer internal bleeding from absorbing this massive Serra daily," Henry thought. "I must seize the first opportunity to escape quickly."

Days passed, and the Kingdom of Shadows began its movements, leading to several skirmishes between the Shadow Knights and the Knights of Light.

A week had passed since the Crown Prince's disappearance. Celesia continued to search for the secret of the Chaos Disease and its connection to the Kingdom of Shadows, discovering shocking truths she had not expected one evening as she read a book in the Imperial Library.

"Next to the heart, there is a dark Serra gathering there. To prevent its transfer to the next generation, it must be destroyed. But destroying it means losing that person's life."

"So, that voice that echoed in my head before the Serra explosion can be said to be my evil counterpart."

"But the counterpart won't allow you to kill yourself because you are its vessel. To kill it, you need someone with the necessary power." Celesia continued to arrange the ideas she deduced from the book, but she was shocked after knowing all this.

"Celesia, I've arrived," Felix entered the library searching for Celesia. Hearing his voice, she quickly put the book back and approached him, "Welcome, brother, thank you for coming," Celesia said warmly.

"So, you plan to go to the incident site tonight," Felix said, looking at her thoughtfully.

"That's right, which is why I asked you to come. I want you to accompany me to that place."
