The Fate Of The Princess

War and Deep Suffering

Sean and Luna's fears are real. A few months later, Kurotsugi declared war on the entire kingdom of Clarity. Not for long, he had managed to conquer them and all that was left was the Kingdom of Luminus and the Kingdom of Valderman.

"What is their purpose?" inner Selena.

"Sister!" Elina hugged him from behind.

"What's up, Lily?"

"Look, I made a flower crown. This is for you," replied Elina cheerfully.

"Forku? Thank you," Selena replied with a sweet smile.

"I put ya, brother."

Selena nodded. Then, Elina paired the crown she made for him.

"Wahh, you're so pretty, like a fairy."

"Hehehe, you're this." Selena laughed a little at her adorable sister

"How much longer can I be with him? Also with mom and dad. I don't know why I always get scared when the war starts." she looked at Elina with a soft look.

From a distance, Luna looked at her children who were playing with a sad look.

"Marie."

"Yes, Mistress?"

Luna smiled faintly, "Stop calling me that."

"Well, Luna."

"Marie, do you know what makes someone weak?"

"If it were me, it would be someone I love."

"True, I did too." Luna's tears trickled as she looked at Selena's smile.

"Luna?"

"I don't want to lose my son again. I just failed to protect her."

"Even I don't know where she is and how she is doing."

"Trust me Luna, she'll definitely be fine."

"I hope it's true."

Then, they left Selena and Elina who were still engrossed in playing and went to the King's Office. Arriving there, they saw Sean and Kazuto who were discussing.

"Sorry to keep you waiting" said Marie.

"It's okay, baby."

"Have you found a solution?" ask Luna.

"All we can do now is strengthen the defense. The rest is still uncertain" Sean explained.

"What is the reason they are at war with the whole kingdom?" ask Marie.

"Maybe they want absolute power." Kazuto replied.

"I don't think so" said Luna.

"Luna?"

"Do you know about the Moon's prophecy?"

"Ah, about the princess with silver hair who—wait, it is impossible right...!"

Luna nodded, "They're after Selena. Sooner or later they'll find him. If they managed to master Clarity, it would make their search easier. Because that's...."

Luna looked at Kazuto and Marie, "I'll send the two of you and the children to Earth."

"In addition, I will seal their innate strength and transform them like an ordinary human being" he continued.

"Luna, that's too risky!" refute Kazuto.

Marie chimed in, "Right, if you do, then you will...."

"I'll help you."

"South?!!" Marie shocked.

"You're crazy!" Kazuto was not out of thought with this friend.

"Although this plan has great risks, it's the best for them" Sean said.

Luna smiled, "Thank you, Sean."

After arguing for a long time, Kazuto and Marie are forced to agree to Luna's reckless actions. Then, Luna went to the princess's room. He smiled when he saw they had not rested.

"You guys haven't slept yet?"

"No, ma. She took something interesting out of her ring, ", replied Elina.

"Ring,"? asked Luna in surprise.

"This ring is a gift from my grandmother who I saved at that time. He said it's a space ring" Selena explained as she showed her the ring

Luna looked at the ring with a complicated gaze, "Why can objects from other dimensions exist here? I haven't heard about this ring for so long" she said.

"Darling, remember mom's message. Don't let anyone else know about this ring's skills."

Selena nodded, "I understand, ma'am."

Luna took out the small box she was carrying. Inside there are 2 necklaces with sapphire stone.

"This is a gift for you."

"It's so pretty."

"Thank you, ma'am."

"Together, baby."

"Put this necklace on me, brother."

"Yes, yes."

Luna smiled looking at those who were enthusiastic with her gift. Suddenly, Marie walked in with a panicked face.

"Look, Luna. I heard the Valderman Kingdom has been conquered and now the enemy is heading here."

"What's? That fast?!"

"True, Sean ordered me to take you to a safe place."

"Where is he now?"

"He was evacuating the population even though he knew it would be useless."

"Why is it like this?" luna muttered.

Luna looked at Selena who calmed the frightened Elina.

"You guys, come with me."

Selena nodded, "Come, Lily."

Luna led them to the secret room. After leaving it to Marie, she got out of there. Suddenly, there was an attack that almost hit him and was successfully stopped by Sean.

"Luna, are you okay?" ask Sean.

"Yes.."

"Ah, not right? Too bad."

Luna was surprised to see who attacked her, "Ka-Kaito..."

"It's nice that you still remember me, baby."

"Fuck! Stop calling my woman that name!"

"Heeh, if I had met you first, he would have been—Arghh!" kai's speech was cut off from being hit by Kazuto.

"Your mouth is still sassy, Kai."

"Kazuto..!"

"The energy in your body is completely dark. Are you siding with 'he' now' ?"

"Of course, do you think I just disappeared for no reason?"

"You're disappointing me, Kai."

"It was her fault for rejecting me!" kaito shouted while pointing at Luna.

Kazuto stared at his sister sharply, "I told you not to chase after someone else's partner. But you're stubborn enough to even plan something disgusting for her."

Suddenly, their atmosphere became extremely gripping. Sean hugged Luna who was trembling due to the dark aura that pierced him. Kurotsugi came out of the darkness and looked at them flatly. Then, he turned his gaze to Luna.

"Purple silver hair.." murmured Kuro.

"Do you know someone with silver-white hair that shines like the moon ?"

Luna looked at him sharply, "Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you!"

Kuro threw a ball of black energy that was only as big as his palm. Kazuto and Sean immediately put up a shield. Unexpectedly, the attack could destroy almost his entire palace. Selena who heard the sound of an explosion felt panicked and wanted to go to the origin of the attack.

"Selena! Stay here."

"If I let it go, mom and dad could be in danger!"

"But, Selena. Your mother told us to stay here."

"Sister..."

"Sorry, Auntie. I can't just stay here. Please take care of Lily for me" Selena's message, who then leaves the place.

"Sister! Don't go!"

When Selena was about to get to the origin of the explosion, she saw her father and mother as well as Kazuto being seriously injured. Then, he saw the enemy who was launching an attack.

"A middle-tier crystal shield!"

The moment the shield collided with Kuro's attack, there was a fairly strong earthquake. The moment the explosion disappeared, his shield nearly shattered and he spewed out a mouthful of blood.

"Selena?!"

"Thank God, you guys.congratulations,"

Seeing the existence of Selena protecting them, made her parents and Kazuto panic.

"Selena! Why are you here?! I told you not to go anywhere!"

Selena ignored him and stared intently at the enemy who dared to hurt her family.

Selena clenched her hands, "How dare you!"

"Hoo, is this your daughter?" ask Kaito.

Kuro looked at Selena sharply, "Aura this girl.not to be mistaken anymore!"

"You really are assholes!"

"Take care of your mouth, little girl" said Kaito.

"Shut up or I'll kill you." threatened Kuro.

"Bright, sir." Kaito shaking. If not for the shield made by Kuro, he would have died from his attack.

Selena held her sword tightly. Selena's eyes turn yellowish blue with vertical pupils. He raised his sword and let out a light.

"Element Sword Formation!"

On top of them, there appeared thousands of swords with various elements attacking the enemy. Kuro destroys Selena's attack with black fire and electricity. While he was off guard, Selena attacked him from behind with a sword of light and wind element. His attack managed to get Kuro injured and eventually bounce off.

"How dare you hurt me!!!" shout Kuro.

"You dare hurt them, why don't I? Is your brain left behind in the kingdom you've defeated?" Selena looked at him coldly.

Kaito felt angry that a little girl could hurt his master.

"Thousand swords of fire!"

"Water Shield." Kaito's attack was destroyed by it.

"You!!"

"Don't you think that ludicrous attack could face—uh!" Selena.

"Selena!" shouted Luna

"Damn, my strength.." muttered Selena.

Sean and Kazuto immediately put up a shelter position. Luna helped the exhausted Selena to stand up slowly.

"Give him to me" Kuro said.

"I don't want to!" reply Sean.

Kai, who knew that his master was angry, immediately clapped his hands twice.

"All right, I'll give you one surprise. Come out, son."

There appeared a silver-haired young man with purple eyes and a flat gaze. Sean and Kazuto were greatly shocked when they saw the figure before them. Luna, she can't believe that her son she's always been looking for isn't far from her.

"Albert.." - Luna.

Selena was puzzled as to why they were shocked when they saw the young man.

"Who is he, Mom?"

Luna remained silent.

"Kaito, what have you done to her?" asked Sean who was trying to contain his anger.

"Ah that. Mr. Kuro instilled black magic and I erased his memories and emotions. Interesting right?"

"You motherfucker!" Sean lunges at him and is obstructed by Albert. They also fought fiercely. Kazuto tries to help, but is stopped by Kai.

Luna pulled Selena to the back of her body.

"Now, no more intruders. Hand over your daughter or I'll kill you." Kuro threatened.

"No way!"

"Ck, not self-conscious!" Kuro was about to hit Luna, but was stopped by someone.

"Gurgh!"

Selena was surprised to see who was coming.

"Lilly!"

"Elina!"

They approached the unconscious Elina. Marie came up with her form that turned into an Elf. Around his body was also filled with wounds.

"Luna..!"

"Marie! Why are you—"

"Sorry, Luna. I can't see her crying because I'm worried about you. I'm also worried about your situation" Marie replied slowly.

"Auntie, why are you hurt?"

"We were stopped by a woman and I fought with her. After he left, I'll be here soon."

Luna handed Marie a key, "Take it with you."

"Luna.inikan..."

"Wait here. I'll help Kazuto."

"You can't go anywhere!" kuro said.

Luna ignored him and teleported towards Kazuto. Feeling angry because he was ignored, he attacked Selena.

When Luna finds Kazuto, she takes out a black tendril and attacks Kai.

"Luna's? Why you-"

"I gave it to Marie, go. I'll buy time."

Kazuto looked down, "Sorry..."

"Please take care of them for us" Luna said.

Kazuto is forced to leave Luna. The fight continues between Luna-Kaito, Sean-Albert and Selena against Kuro.

"Meteor Lightning!"

"Black Fire Eaters!"

Selena bounced off the blast. Marie tried to use her healing powers.

"I'll be kind if you turn yourself in, little girl. But unfortunately, you're so stubborn."

Kuro takes out a black chain to carry Selena, but fails as Kazuto kicks her.

"Well! How dare you try to kidnap her! Besides, don't you feel ashamed that your opponent is just a child?" kazuto circus.

"Give up, kid. You have already suffered fatal injuries due to my first attack. Added to your battle just now, shouldn't you guys be out of steam?" kuro asked without realizing his men had been defeated.

Kazuto grinned, "Let's see your back."

Without having a chance to see, Luna tied her up with black tendrils along with her blue flame. Luna's appearance changed completely. His white eyes turned black with yellow eyeballs of vertical stripes. There is one blue horn.

Selena was surprised to see the change, "Mother...using her half dragon form?"

Luna threw Kuro away from their place.

"Mother..."

"Inter-Dimensional Teleportation Gate, open up!" Luna formed a symbol in her hand.

There was a white gate with a complicated pattern behind Selena. Then, Luna did some elaborate moves on her hands. Instantly, Selena and Elina's necklace glowed. Afterwards, Luna stroked their heads.

Selena felt weak, "Mom-I.what are you..."

"Sorry, sweetheart. We can't be with you any longer" Luna said grudgingly.

"Why did you say that? He's already lost, right?" ask Selena.

Luna shook her head, "Mom's just stalling."

"I can't say that you're the only one who can beat him. Sorry, Selena," she's inward.

Sure enough, Kuro appeared with a black aura that filled their place. He instantly threw his two black swords and hit Kazuto and Sean.

"Sean! Kazuto!" shouted Luna and Marie.

"Low-beings! You underestimate me too much!"

"Kazuto, please give me some time."

Kazuto nodded and tried to attack Kuro with his deteriorating condition.

"Do it now, baby," Sean said as he transferred some of his power to Luna.

Luna cast some seal spells then placed her glowing hand over Selena and Elina's head.

"I don't understand what they want to do. But why do I feel like they're leaving us?" selena with mixed feelings.

After a while, the seal was completed and the gate was already open. It just takes a little more time. Simultaneously, Kazuto was thrown towards them. Sean manages to catch her who is already dying and takes her to Marie's side. They got into it, except for Selena. Luna and Sean attack Kuro so as not to approach them. But, they were defeated just like that by Kuro.

"Dad! Mama!" Selena approached them when the gate was almost closed.

"To.na..pa?" asked Luna stammeringly.

"Basic fool.." - Sean.

Selena couldn't hold back her tears seeing their condition. "I'm sorry, if I were stronger.I'm sorry, mom, dad."

Sean wiped away his son's tears, "Don't apologize, son. We should've protected you."

Suddenly, a teleportation portal appeared under Selena.

"Mother?!! What is—"

"Go, Selena. Find your sister."

"But..."

"Enable the seal." muttered Luna.

The portal shone and prevented Selena from approaching them. Kuro who saw it tried to destroy the portal and the result failed. Because it is a high-level spell that can not be canceled by anyone, including its users.

"Mother! Daddy!"

"I'm sorry, baby."

Luna shed her tears, "I'm sorry baby, I don't have the energy to change your memory. Sorry, I was forced to seal your powers and make you like ordinary humans. Sorry you had to feel so much pain. Forgive your stupid mother, Selena, Elina. May you find happiness." - her inner.

Sean looked at his daughter wistfully, "Little is the happiest time. But because of us, you have to grow up fast. You have to bear the weight of fate so heavy at your very young age. Sorry you had to find them alone. Sorry for not being able to accompany you. I'm sorry for failing to be your father."

Selena looked at them with tears flowing down her cheeks. Later, the portal disappears and Selena must live her life alone in a very strange place for her. A place called Earth.
