Chapter 243: Spin-Off Vol.2 'Clarent Star ': Extra 2, Explanation
Topic 1: What important things happened Offscreen during the whole volume.
1. Important Offscreen Scene #1.
The Ritual before Charlotte go to the 'Nightcave Dungeon'.
Chapters:
Chapter 226, Spin-Off Vol.2 'Clarent Star ': Clarent.
The reason why Charlotte knew where the [Power Crimson King Gem (SSS)] is not only because she had the [Fairy Glitter Ring, Incomplete (SSS)] within her hands, but also it had been enchanted by her mother so she now where the Ring Gem's is.
2. Important Offscreen Scene #2.
The 'Sagitarii Leones'.
Chapters:
Chapter 231, Spin-Off Vol.2 'Clarent Star ': Clarent Witch; Chapter 235, Spin-Off Vol.2 'Clarent Star ': Spending The Night.
O they already been around since the start of the whole Spin-Off, tracking over Mrs. Clarent in the guise of 'Charlotte Antares' ordered by Arthur. Using every evidence and connection, the Leones group already narrow every possibilities for years, until they finally narrowed Mrs. Clarent's real location in the certain Chapter.
After the skipped battle, as Mrs. Clarent summoned the Balrog using Magic Circles. It immediately killed them all in cost of it's life, for they all battle with their might.
The battle with he Balrog is basically a battle of some powerful and talented Royal Warriors against one overpowered ancient beast. The result ends with their deaths, a fatal stroke to Mrs. Clarent's plan since she planned to use it to fight Arthur at the time if he suddenly came.
About the Balrog, the Balrog she had is actually a Balrog tamed by the Clarent House years prior the entirety of this Novel's Timeline, even before Duncan's Spin-Off Volume. This thing had been secretly tamed and pet by the House by sacrificing many of their members to cultivate it's power, their souls are consumed within the Summoned Balrog, only Mrs. Clarent survive and had the privilege to use it against those of the Caliburs.
Thus, their sacrifices ends in shame, since they didn't get the chance to face Arthur Calibur. *Lucky Bastard*. But still, the Balrog will be killed instantly anyways, with 'Excalibur'...
Despite all that, after seeing Mrs. Clarent's death, perhaps the Balrog died early is a great way for it to escape the worst death...
*Sob* Like Mrs. Clarent (Mommy Clarent) had in her end... *sob*...
3. Important Offscreen Scene #3.
Mrs. Clarent's battle with Arthur Calibur.
Chapters:
Chapter 236, Spin-Off Vol.2 'Clarent Star ': Home Sweet Home to Chapter 239, Spin-Off Vol.2 'Clarent Star ': Calibur's Belongings Part 3.
Well, Mommy Clarent, I mean... Mrs. Clarent *sob* (really missed her, sorry I killed you and give little screen time), ... her magic actually more of a 'Curse Magic' and her Class is actually a 'Witch', hence the title.
Not just 'Curse Magic', Mrs. Clarent had also mastered some kind of a unique Magic she developed herself due to her genius which [Split Second], a still unidentified type of Magic since during her public S-Rank Hunter days, using the public name 'Charlotte Antares', Mrs. Clarent never once spell the Magic's name during it's activation, hence a great proof of her mastery over it.
Some of her peers in the past, the S-Rank Hunters and some Hunter Association Officials, knew about this Magic. For obvious example, Duncan Richter-Grimshaw (S-Rank), Warblade Guild's Current Guildmaster Agniz Resha (S-Rank), Sharp Eye Guild's Current Guildmaster Mercy Aquilla, Sharp Eye Guild's Former Guildmaster and Guildmaster Mercy's Father Maurice Aquilla, the ex-Sergeant Knight from Duncan's Spin-off. These guys are some appearing characters who knew about the Magic among all else, but even they are not able to fully understand it.
For Duncan, the [Split Second] Magic is believed to be an [Area Alter Magic]. just like Irina's but with different concepts of activation, instead of trapping Enemies inside a 'Separated Space' of the User's very Hidden Nature, it instead activates within the Real World.
This magic is an exclusive Magic made by Mrs. Clarent and only ever shared to other person which is obviously her own daughter/son, Charlotte/Carlos. This..., this Magic is actually the source of his 'Plot Armor', the thing that Donovan hated about Carlos so much.
If the System identifies it. For Mrs. Clarent, this Magic is an 'Active Skill' that needs a great cost of Mana. But for Carlos, it's a 'Passive Skill' that only required him to have his Mana above 20% of his Total 100%.
For its effect, the most notable effect is time slowing around the User, making them able to move faster, but this is only one of the effects, the other is still identifiable, for now.
For the Magic's strengths and weaknesses. Perhaps the condition is the most depending factor, if this was used against a powerful enemy like Arthur Calibur, then this Magic will likely be either helpful or just a waste of power. So, it depends on the User's Mastery and Decision over it.
Oh yeah, speaking of knowing, Arthur Calibur knew about this after taking custody of some former contacts of Mrs. Clarent, thus, those who happened to experienced or even know it spill it out to him about it, making him laugh as a ridiculous kind of magic exist. Even he was quite interested for a sec.
But still, after defeating Mrs. Clarent, he seemed lost interest over it, never recounting over it again while there's something he's not really aware of.
That his daughter, his son, Charlotte/Carlos...
Had it and honed the very Magic, perfecting it in secret.
4. Important Offscreen Scene #4.
Charlotte/Carlos and Donovan.

For Donovan, he is still didn't know about it, but neither do Charlotte to Draven, Donovan's other personality, despite already begin to suspect it independently.

Topic 3: King Arthur's Descendants.
Based on the world's history. King Arthur is known to have sired two women.
One is the Witch 'Morgan Le Fay', with her son 'Mordred', the 'False Son'.
From Mordred, comes the King's 'False Bloodline', the Bloodline of Filth as their ancestor was the cause of the King's demise and the destruction of Camelot in times before Ragnarok.
The 'False Bloodline's Families:
- Malicestare House. The House of Horrors, known for it's practice of Forbidden Arts, mostly illusions of horrors. Already extinct.
- Morgana House. The House of Witches, known for it's powerful female members in the Forbidden Arts despite the lack of numbers. Already extinct, most of it's members are integrated to the next House.
- The Clarent House. The House of Curses, once, this House is the House of many prominent members of the 'False Bloodline' adding those born with the help of the 'Morgana House' through Marriage. This house possesses Sir Mordred's Sword, the 'Clarent' Sword, the Sword where the House's name came from. Most of it's members now are either persecuted, hiding, or even changing their very Family name, or perhaps forgotten their connection to it.
Known members:

- Drakeron House. The House of Dragon. Not known much about the status of this House. Their members are still searched, even if with the possibility if this House already changes it's very name.
After Morgan Le Fay, King Arthur had another one, the one whom he made his Queen, Queen Guinevere. With her, Arthur sired a secret son, one whom he made to flee with the Queen before Camelot's destruction in order to be raised in secret, with the help of the Great Sorcerer Merlin and his Family.
In secret, the King's Official Son had made his descendants alongside with the help of Merlin's and the remaining Knights of the Round Table's. For they all offered their descendants for the King's descendants, in order to make a great bloodline rightful to the King's legacy, combined with the talents and powers inherited from all of the powerful figures. With years of secret breeding, they created the ultimate descendants of King Arthur that soon to be called the 'Rightful Bloodline'.
The 'Rightful Bloodline's Families:
- The Avalon House. The House of Royal Majesty. Despite not having Excalibur, this House's members had all the powers inherited from their great ancestors. Thus, making them had equal talents and power in Knighthood and Sorcery. This house had the smallest numbers of members, due to their powerful heritage causing them only to able produce around 1 or two children max for each generation.
The Avalon House is the Current House that rules the Country of Magic, Elysium Haven.
Known members:
> Princess Alexandria Ithuriel Avalon I. In Volume 4.
- The Calibur House. The House of Knighthood Radiance. This house is the house who inherited many of the Knighthood talents, as well as 'the' Excalibur itself alongside the Sword's hidden Star Magic. With their power and numbers, alongside their privilege of Excalibur, this House should've been the Ruler of Elysium Haven but the other Royal Houses feared their arrogance, thus choosing the Avalons for they are more balanced in every terms.

> Carol Olivia Bright (Arthur's Cousin, Carlos' Aunt), Branch Member | Alive
