"We didn't mean to peek at you, we swear!" Lian stood up and tidied up her dress.
Lian then began to explain how they found Yuki here. All of this happened 15 minutes earlier.
"Why is Mom still not back?" Katsumi nudges Yumie's arm and asked.
"I don't know, but you don't gotta worry since she is Mom." Yumie patted Katsumi's head like an adult, but to an outsider, it was a funny scene.
A short woman was patting someone on the head like an adult, the scene was truly cute.
"Don't treat me like a child," Katsumi said with a huff.
"Okay, if you're worried then why don't we find her?" Yumie suddenly suggested.
"Alright, then let's go!" Katsumi dragged Yumie's arm suddenly.
"Hey, careful!" Yumie pouted and neatly tidied up her Kimono and glared at Katsumi for suddenly pulling her.
"Where are you two going?" Aria asked when she saw that the two were about to leave.
"We're just going to find Mom," Katsumi answered.
"Why, didn't you hear what she said? She said that she wanted to get some fresh air, she is feeling stuffy or uncomfortable since there are a lot of people here." Aria said.
"It's fine, she is our Mom so there will be no problem. Right big sis?" Katsumi ignored Aria and asked Yumie.
"Yeah, plus I'm getting bored here anyways. I want to explore a bit." Yumie shrugged at Aria and continued their way to look for Yuki.
"We'll come with you, I'm afraid you might get lost." Aria then also dragged Rory out of her table.
"Yeah, if something were to happen to you, Yuki will blame us," Rory added, she was about to curse at Aria for suddenly pulling her. But when she saw Aria smile at her she trashed the idea and followed along.
"Can I also come with you?" Anna too also wanted to follow.
"It's fine."
"Then let's go." Aria then took the lead and started to wander around, they then also ask the guards around to know if they saw Yuki.
Then when they got to the guard that Yuki asked before, they also asked him and now know where Yuki is.
"Then let's go to the clock tower now," Rory said and walked on ahead of everyone.
When they finally arrived at the door of the clock tower, they saw Lian standing there and peeking inside the door.
"What are you doing Princess?" Aria bowed and asked.
"Kya-" Lin was shocked and suddenly screamed, but she managed to cover her mouth in time so that her voice didn't leak out.
"Nothing, I was just about to enter this room when I found Miss Yuki outside," Lian answered.
"Then what are you doing here?" Lian asked them.
"Oh, we were looking for Yuki because of these two," Aria answered.
"Alright, well like I said Miss Yuki is inside, do you want to go outside?"
"Oh, is that so? Then why don't we enter at the same time then?" Rory then held the doorknob and was about to enter when all of them heard music coming from a Flute.
"What is that?"
"It's coming from outside." Anna pointed at the door and said:
"Then let's look." Rory then opened the door slightly and they saw Yuki's back.
"Wow, what great music. Yuki was truly the one who was playing." Lian mumbles to herself.
Everyone also agreed and began to enjoy the little show Yuki, but then when the music died they all heard Yuki's voice.
"So you were looking for me." Yuki raised an eyebrow and looked at Yumie and Katsumi.
"We're sorry." Both of them lowered their heads and apologized.
"It's fine, I'm not angry. I was just surprised to see so many of you here. Especially you Princess." Yuki then looked at Lian with a questioning gaze in her eyes.
"Ah, I just wanted to thank you for coming to the Party on behalf of the Royal Family," Lian said.
"It's not a problem since I made a deal with the King." Yuki shrugged.
"Wait, you made a deal with the King?" Anna looked at Yuki with clear shock in her eyes.
"Yes, it's a long story. I don't want to talk about it anymore. Well then, let's go back inside now." Yuki then stood up from the edge and was about to open the door when suddenly she felt a thick amount of Power coming close to them.
"Get down!" Yuki immediately created an Ice Wall and blocked the attack.
Boom!!
Because of the sudden attack, Yuki didn't have the time to create much stronger Ice so when the attack touched her Ice it immediately shattered to pieces and pierced through.
As she had no time to dodge the attack or block it again, she decided to take a risk and catch the attack. Since she already knows what the attack was she takes a risk and catches it.
Boom!!
Yuki then flew to the side and hit the wall very hard when she tried to catch it.
"What happened?" Aria and Rory coughed because of all the dust that flew, and when everything finally subsided they saw Yuki on the wall with a Spear in her right hand.
"Sh*t, someone tried to assassinate me I think." Yuki slowly stood up and looked at the Spear in her hands. It was pure black, and nothing special. But the amount of Power that was on it greatly shocked Yuki.
When everyone saw Yuki's arm, they widened their eyes as they saw it was burned and bleeding, and taking a closer look at it they could see that the bones around it were shattered.
"Are you alright!?" Anna rushed through and checked on Yuki.
"I'm fine, but let's go back inside. I don't know if that is the only attack that they send out." Yuki answered and ignored Anna's concerns as she had bigger problems other than her arms.
While Yuki and the rest were climbing down, Yuki eyes the Quest Panel on her System that Fubuki gave her.

"What the hell is happening?" When all of them got back down, they saw that all of the people were panicking and the Adventures and Guards were working together to keep them calm.
"Father, what is happening? Are we getting attacked?" Lian quickly asked her father about the situation.
"Yes, and I think their main target is Yuki here, and base from the attackers. They are from the Evil Group of cultivators, named Royal Destruction." King Dagart sighed.
"What isn't their leader already dead?" Aria asked with a pale face, she doesn't dare to remember the Royal Destruction group as they are very evil and strong.
The Royal Destruction is a group of people that wants to take over the whole Mystic Dragon Heaven, they are so strong that they even managed to take over half of the entire Heaven.
People naturally feared them, but 500 years ago a group of strong people was sent out to destroy the whole group, and they succeeded. But they didn't know that the leader survived and was now trying to take over Heaven again. Rory and Aria were also a part of the group that destroyed them, and from their experience, they know how strong they are.
"Have you tried to talk to them?" Aria asked.
"Yes, they sent out a message saying that they will come here with an army of 500,000. All ranging from Essence Lord to Overseer Peak Tier." The King looked at the sky, and his gaze was very deep as if he had already given up.
"Have you called back up yet, and what about the other group? Humans, Elves, Dwarfs!?" Rory shouted.
"They are also trying to call the backup. Sh*t if this restriction is not here I would gladly kill all of them!" King Dagart rages.
"What restrictions is he talking about?" Yuki asked Lian.
"Ah, that is-" Lian looked at her father first.
"It's fine my daughter. I can explain it to her. There is a restriction here on the Mystic Heaven, if you manage to reach the Spirit Gathering and above, you will have to take an oath where you are not allowed to take action in a battle if there are no enemies there that have the same level as you. In simpler terms, we King cannot fight here because of the restriction, and even if we force it out we will get punished."
"Well, I guess it's fair. So how many warriors do you think you can send out?" Yuki asked.
"Well only about 100,000, but the worst part is that the best warriors we have are only in the Overseer Middle Tier. Meanwhile, the enemies have Peak Tier.
