Within a deep abyss…

“Haa…”

A faint, shallow breath echoed through the cold, heavy air, the only sign of life in the desolate ruins, a lonely sound reverberating through the silent space.

“…….”

A woman’s silhouette emerged from the darkness, her long hair swaying gently in the dim light, her gaze piercing the empty abyss. But her expression wasn’t simply empty; it was a turbulent mix of conflicting emotions.

Joy, anticipation, and longing flickered across her face, but beneath the surface, anxiety, hatred, and suppressed rage burned like a hidden fire.

“I can sense it, that presence.”

She whispered, her words hanging heavy in the air, echoing through the abyss, spreading like ripples in a still pond.

Then, a faint voice echoed from the darkness, as if the abyss itself was speaking.

“Indeed. Has the time finally come?”

The voice was deep and resonant.

“…….”

She slowly gestured, a simple movement, yet the air grew heavy, as if imbued with an ancient power.

As her fingertips traced patterns in the air, a torch sconce suddenly erupted in flames, the fire dancing and twisting unnaturally, as if a living being writhing in agony.

Following her gesture, other torches ignited one by one, the flames not merely illuminating the darkness, but awakening something that had slumbered within this space.

The crackling of the flames tore through the silence as each torch ignited.

Whoosh -!

The final torch erupted in flames.

After a brief silence, the space was bathed in a violet light, a cold, alien glow, devoid of warmth or life, an ominous, unsettling presence, like the remnants of a being not of this world.

“It’s time to prepare.”

She walked slowly, yet majestically, through the flames, the fire parting around her, unable to touch her, swirling and dancing in obedience.

The violet flames enveloped her, a sight both terrifying and awe-inspiring.

“You truly are a mischievous child.”

She muttered, a cruel smile twisting her lips, a predatory glint in her eyes, her expression sending shivers down one’s spine.

“Huhu.”

It was a wicked, yet alluring, smile. Her voice was soft, but a chilling coldness emanated from her, as if freezing one to the bone.

“I’ll be waiting for you… in this deep tomb~.”

Her words echoed like a curse, her eyes gleaming, piercing the darkness, filled with an unspeakable malice and madness, a look of unrestrained desire, ready to unleash a long-suppressed hunger.

“Lucy Dioltopo -”

As her name was spoken, the entire space trembled, the darkness of the abyss deepening.

Her every word held power in this realm. And her desires had just begun to awaken.

◇ ◇ ◇

Before Arnold could speak, Lucy’s bright laughter echoed through the room.

“Ahaha~ Arnold, you’re quite the popular one, aren’t you?”

Lucy chuckled, scratching her head, seemingly oblivious to the tension in the room, but there was a strange calmness in her eyes, as if she was enjoying the situation.

“Do you know Arnold, upperclassman?”

Elisha’s voice cut through the air, her tone calm but laced with a subtle tension, as if the situation could change drastically depending on Lucy’s answer.

“Hmm~? No, this is only our second meeting.”

Lucy waved her hand dismissively with an embarrassed laugh.

“We just happened to run into each other at the equipment shop. We only exchanged names.”

“Is that true…?”

Eilly spoke up, her voice as calm as she could manage, but her gaze was intense, as if trying to see through Lucy. She took a step forward, her suspicion evident. Lucy continued,

“Yes, it was a brief encounter. We’re practically strangers, even though we’ve met again like this.”

A brief silence followed, and then Eilly, Elisha, and Melina seemed to accept Lucy’s words, their suspicion easing somewhat.

“I see…”

They relaxed, breathing a collective sigh of relief.

“Sorry, I think I made things a bit awkward.”

“No~ It’s fine. I’ve never been in love, but I can understand a woman’s heart.”

Lucy smiled nonchalantly, adjusting her hat. Her relaxed demeanor showed that she wasn’t intimidated by the situation.

“Anyway! Call me Lucy. I specialize in magic, and I can wield both water and lightning elements.”

She snapped her fingers, and a spark of static electricity flickered at her fingertips, a brief display of magic that drew curious glances from the others.

“Oh? Can you cast magic without chanting?”

Varis asked in awe, and Lucy nodded with a smile.

“You’re sharp. That’s right. I’m the only third-year who can use chantless magic. I guess I’m quite talented.”

Lucy boasted playfully, placing her hands on her hips, her confident smile easing the tension and creating a more friendly atmosphere.

“Wow, that’s amazing!”

Eilly’s eyes sparkled as she continued,

“It’s an honor to have you as our mentor~ You’re the first person I’ve seen use chantless magic besides Master!”

But Lucy’s expression faltered slightly. She tilted her head, surprised.

“What? Besides your master? What do you mean?”

“Oh, well…”

Eilly suddenly hugged Arnold’s arm and smiled brightly.

“Actually, our Master Arnold can also use chantless magic!”

Elisha and Melina glared at Eilly’s sudden outburst, but she ignored them, her eyes shining with pride, as if boasting about a treasured possession.

“Really?! Arnold, you’re amazing!”

Lucy’s demeanor changed instantly. Her jaw dropped, and then she burst into laughter.

“It’s the first time I’ve met another chantless mage!”

Her eyes sparkled with excitement as she looked at him, her gaze so intense that his vision blurred slightly.

“Is that… such a big deal?”

He asked, and Lucy stepped closer, taking his hand, her eyes filled with passion, as if she had found a kindred spirit.

“Of course! Being able to use chantless magic means you have a natural talent for magic or a deep understanding of its principles. I think we could achieve great things together!”

“…….”

Her enthusiasm reminded him of something. That’s right… he had forgotten.

Lucy was a girl with an insatiable thirst for knowledge, deeply fascinated by those with talent or a deep understanding of magic. That’s why she was a popular heroine, a quirky mage with an innocent, cheerful, and playful charm.

“Excuse me.”

But amidst her enthusiasm, he suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for her. He knew the reason behind her obsession with magical research. She was actually…

“Lucy, that’s enough. You’re making Arnold uncomfortable.”

Elisha’s firm voice interrupted them, and Lucy, realizing she had gotten carried away, released his hand with an embarrassed laugh.

“Oh, sorry, sorry! I got a little excited…”

She scratched her head and stepped back, then tried to change the subject with a bright smile.

“So, we haven’t really gotten to know each other yet. Shall we continue with the introductions?”

But her suggestion, instead of easing the tension, only reignited it.

“Um, sure. Then I’ll go first. As I said before, I’m Elisha.”

Elisha’s words were the catalyst. She glanced at him, a smile playing on her lips, but her following words were a declaration of war.

“Arnold’s fiancée.”

The air in the room instantly froze.

Eilly and Melina stiffened, as if sensing an impending battle, a subtle tension filled the room.
