Holding her little sister in her arms, Ain began to walk towards the spiral staircase of the tall tower.

With each step, her eyes became more determined, and her grip on her sister's hand became stronger.

From the moment she made the decision, Princess Ain, who still had a little bit of a girlish nature, disappeared, praying to the stars for a miracle.

The stars responded to her prayer, and she knew she had to make a change.

Everything was for the great and sacred Silver Dragon.

The automated staircase carried the two sisters towards the first floor of the tower.

Soon, they reached the first floor of this ancient ruin. Ain held her sister's hand and entered the long-unused dressing room.

She dressed her little sister Adley in a brand-new white princess gown, while Ain herself chose a long-unused formal dress, resembling a wedding gown with golden rose accents on the hem.

This set of western-style dresses was personally sewn by her mother, a magical dress prepared as one of the gifts for her wedding. It automatically fits her body and has a three-level defense barrier, which can defend against most arrows and long-range attacks.

Originally, this dress was intended to be worn on her wedding day. Her mother had once said with a smile, "When you can wear this dress, you will be the most beautiful bride in the world."

I'm sorry, mother, I have disappointed you. I haven't been able to get married.

Princess Ain, who was only fourteen years old, looked slightly melancholic as she gazed at her rose dress. The intertwining of gold and red was supposed to be the most splendid colors in the world, but now it carried a hint of sadness.

Now, what she has to do is more important than getting married. Wearing this bridal gift represents her determination.

"Adley, you don't need to say anything later."

"As long as you stay the way you are now, that's enough."

Comforting her slightly nervous younger sister in a soft voice, Ain tidied her hair and with a proud gaze, took the initiative to open the long-closed gates of the Divine Era Tower.

The sealed Divine Era Tower was originally the final defense for the two sisters, even if the Emperor's First Magic Army Legion attacked the royal city, they could protect their last bit of dignity.

But now, the fortress gate was opened by Ain herself.

Since a moment ago, she had been sending out some messages as the divine era towerGuardian.

"Boom!" In front of the slowly opening tower gate, the sisters were greeted by a mass of nobles and royalty kneeling on the ground.

Duke Parbad, the last duke with the kingdom's intact territory.

Count Gaspar, the controller of the kingdom's commercial lifeline.

Viscount Theon, the commander of the royal city's guard.

All of the kingdom's major nobles and representatives of the royalty were almost all gathered here.

It was these people who recently betrayed Princess Ain and handed over the royal city to the first imperial magic army legion.

Among them, Duke Parbad, the representative of the royalty, was Princess Ain and Adley's uncle according to generation.

His opinion is basically the same as the remaining royals' opinion, he is the spokesperson of the royal faction.

If Princess Ain and Adley were captured by the empire, he would be theoretical first heir to the kingdom.

Count Gaspar represents the merchant faction.

The cunning merchants, who are skilled at sensing the wind direction, had already noticed the signs of war. As soon as the battle between the empire's first magic army legion and the royal knights ended, they couldn't wait to make their move.

Finally, Viscount Theon, the elite of the noble faction, the youngest and most promising knight of the empire, said to be only a step away from becoming a hero-ranked individual. He represents the military noble class.

Representatives of the royal family, merchants, and nobles, the three major powers of the kingdom, all knelt down before Ain and Adley as they walked out of the high tower.

All of them had incredibly pale faces.

No one could have expected that the kingdom, which appeared to be on the verge of defeat in everyone's eyes, still held such a terrifying trump card.

That tower, which had stood in the heart of the royal city since the divine era, unexpectedly possessed such destructive power.

In history, there was no record of the heritage of the divine era having such power.

However, in history, the kingdom had never encountered such a desperate situation before. They were under attack, and even the previous king and queen, who were of the divine era bloodline, died in battle.

Now, everyone is filled with fear. Whether it's Duke Parbad, the representative of the royal family, or Count Gaspar, the representative of the merchants, or Viscount Theon, the representative of the nobles, they all came to the tower immediately to seek forgiveness after receiving Princess Adley's command.

"Your Highness, please forgive my rudeness."

"We were too ignorant of the power of the divine era bloodline."

Duke Parbad, who is almost sixty years old, suddenly had half of his hair turn white overnight. His once composed figure became trembling and unsteady.

As a member of the royal family, he didn't awaken the power of the divine era bloodline. In the kingdom's laws, awakening the divine era bloodline was the highest privilege. No king had ever ruled without awakening the power of the divine era bloodline.

The current first emperor of the empire was actually a genius who separated from the royal family.

That member of the royal family was a rare and exceptional knight genius. His strength was even on par with the awakeners of the divine era bloodline of that generation. But because he didn't awaken the power of the divine era bloodline, he couldn't become the king of the kingdom.

After defeating the king of that era, the talented knight fled with some loyal nobles and royals, and established the present empire.

Compared to the kingdom that followed ancient traditions, the empire from the very beginning made it clear that divine era bloodline was not the first condition for inheriting the country. At the same time, the empire vigorously developed advanced technology and eventually gave birth to the present magic armor system.

After several border conflicts, the combat power of the magic armor shocked the entire continent and made the empire overconfident. It boldly launched an invasion of the kingdom.

Equipped with the new generation of magic armor, the empire's first magic army legion, led by three titled knights, broke through all the kingdom's defenses in less than half a month, piercing the heart of the kingdom - the capital.

The events that followed were witnessed by everyone here as part of history.

Nuclear explosion - this was the almost unanimous judgment of both the kingdom and the empire, the only reasonable explanation found in the piles of history.

The empire's first magic army legion, along with the entire empire with only three titled knights among its nine members, instantly turned to ashes and dust.

The person responsible for causing this tragedy and wiping out the first magic army legion from the map was undoubtedly the girl in the golden-red dress, overlooking everyone from a high position.

Princess Ain, the first princess of the kingdom, renowned as a genius in divine era magic.

Guardian of the Kingdom's divine era heritage.

"You have betrayed the country, betrayed me," said Ain, making everyone shiver.

Could it be that Princess is about to initiate a bloody purge?
