The fragments scattered across the entire earth, causing a cataclysmic change. Powerful beasts vanished, leaving behind mere myths, while only ordinary wild and domestic animals managed to survive.
However, these fragments absorbed the essence of the vanished creatures, becoming imbued with their extraordinary powers. Remarkably, humans endured the upheaval. In regions where these fragments fell, the magical energies seeped into the bodies of the inhabitants, granting them newfound abilities and altering the course of humanity forever.In the wake of the magic-infused cataclysm, those who harnessed the mystical energies underwent a profound transformation, embodying the essence of the beasts whose powers the fragments had absorbed. These beings possessed the remarkable ability to shift between beast and human forms, a characteristic intrinsic to their magical nature.Individuals who absorbed the essence of ice, water, and wind from the fragments became the awe-inspiring Magical Ice Dragons. Those attuned to the magic of fire and wind transformed into majestic Magical Phoenixes. The harmonious blend of earth, wind, and water magic gave rise to the regal Magical Griffins. Those imbued with light, wind, and earth powers embodied the noble spirit of the Magical White Wolves.Remarkably, these magical beings inherited human powers as well, granting them the extraordinary ability to adapt to diverse environments. For instance, creatures with fire magic thrived in scorching heat but could endure cold temperatures for brief periods if necessary. The same adaptability applied to those endowed with ice magic.However, the world plunged into a relentless conflict as the magical beasts engaged in fierce battles amongst themselves and sometimes clashed with remaining humans. This turmoil was exacerbated by the malevolent magic that seeped into the fragments. Without power, humans stood defenseless against these formidable creatures. Amidst the chaos, a courageous family emerged, its members wielding unique magical abilities that enabled them to stand against the magical beasts and restore peace to the shattered world.Despite the chaos that enveloped the world, this exceptional family held a unique perspective. They found beauty in the magical beasts and harbored no desire for war, choosing instead to appreciate the creatures for the wonders they were. Their hearts were woven with the threads of peace and curiosity, leading them down paths of exploration, invention, and travel. This family was a beacon of tranquility in a world gripped by strife—a group of nature enthusiasts whose love for the environment knew no bounds. Their philosophy was simple: they would never meddle in the affairs of others.Curiously, when the magic vanished from the rest of humanity, this family was untouched by the loss. They alone retained their mystical powers. Even the magical beasts sensed their peaceful intentions and responded with friendship, forging a unique bond that set them apart from the conflicts consuming the world.When the original disc fragmented, giving rise to magical creatures, a smaller fragment, containing all magical elements and the essence of every beast, found its resting place in a secluded cave. Remarkably potent, it eventually split in two: a smaller piece soared through the air, landing amidst the humble abode of a family deep within the forest. This fortuitous event bestowed upon them extraordinary powers, setting them apart from their fellow humans.The larger portion of the fragment transformed into a bewitching black rose within the mystical depths of the cave.As this gifted family embarked on their journeys, they became acutely aware of the destructive conflict between humans and magical beasts. They recognized that if this discord persisted, the unparalleled beauty of nature would be marred, motivating them to seek a resolution and restore harmony to the world.Afterward, the family embarked on a journey across diverse corners of the world, engaging in heartfelt conversations with both humans and magical beasts about the detrimental impact of their conflicts on nature. Their words struck a chord. Humans, now powerless, had no choice but to listen. The magical beasts, too, sensed a familiar and comforting aura from the family, leading them to agree to the plea for peace. Moreover, the incessant battles among magical beasts had taken a toll, leaving them desperate for respite.In the end, a historic peace agreement was forged. According to its terms, an understanding blossomed between these species. They vowed never to engage in combat again. The magical beasts agreed to assume their human forms only when in the company of other humans, finding solace in their shared presence. Conversely, they would transform back into their original selves when away from human territories. As for humans, a pact was made: they would no longer hunt these magical beings, allowing both species to coexist harmoniously in the embrace of nature.The heroic family that saved the world hailed from the ancient land of magic, China. Feeling a deep connection to their homeland, they returned, and their noble deeds resonated across the kingdoms of the world. In honor of their role in restoring peace to Earth, different kingdoms named them 'Chi,' a name that became synonymous with harmony. The Chi family transformed into legends, revered by all, especially the magical beasts who regarded them as their rightful rulers.Following their return, the Continent of Ice, now known as Antarctica, became the realm of the Magical Ice Dragons. The scorching lands of the Continent of Fire, present-day Arab, were claimed by the resplendent Magical Phoenixes. The lush Land of Nature, modern-day South America, became the haven of the majestic Magical Griffins. Meanwhile, the Land of Magic, China, stood as the revered domain of the Chi family and the enchanting Magical White Wolves.The magical beings shared a common trait: a lifespan of 150 years, marking their natural limit. In the southeastern waters, a mystical island brimming with magical resources emerged, nestled close to present-day Australia. Once a site for human rituals during the age of magic, it now lay beyond human reach, accessible only to the members of the Chi family who ruled over the magical beasts. This island served as a sanctuary, where the leaders of magical beasts convened with the Chi family ruler, discussing their concerns and resolving issues that arose in their extraordinary realm.After years of peace, rumors of a mysterious black rose hidden within the cave began to circulate. Anyone attempting to touch it found their hands scorched, and the tale of the demonic rose spread far and wide. Brave souls ventured to claim it, only to suffer burns, fatal injuries, or be forcefully expelled from the cave due to an unseen power surrounding the rose.Over time, a belief emerged that the rose was sacred, a guardian watching over them. Pilgrims flocked to the cave, bearing offerings and prayers, yet their efforts only met with greater misery.One day, the ruler of the Chi family, having heard the legends, decided to investigate. He entered the cave cautiously, well aware of the fate befalling those who touched the rose. As he approached, he steeled himself against its power. Surprisingly, as he extended his finger toward the rose, a great spark ignited, heralding a moment of profound significance.In his dream, the Chi ruler witnessed a flourishing kingdom, but fate took a dark turn when a girl was born into Chi's family, leading to the tragic demise of the Black Rose. The very instant the black rose turned to ashes, all the magical beasts in the realm began to perish abruptly.As she matured, she ascended to power, and chaos ensued among the magical beasts, staining the world in blood. The girl's crown was fashioned from this very blood, symbolizing her rule.Upon awakening, he recounted his dream to the leaders of the Magical Beasts, prompting the Magical White Wolves to stand sentinel at the Black Rose's cave.Henceforth, the girl was christened Black Princess Chi, after the name of the fallen Black Rose, and whispers of a curse surrounded her name.Ever since the prophecy of the cursed girl's impending birth, the Chi family lived in constant dread. They had planned to hand her over to the Magical Beasts immediately upon her arrival. However, as time passed, the ominous event
They decided to keep her on the island for a few days, attempting various methods to awaken her evil side, but all their efforts proved futile.Initially, they tried to provoke her by putting her in danger, hoping her evil side would surface in self-defense. One day, while she was playing with Hao in the garden, they sent a fierce lion her way. However, Hao, aware of the situation, disappeared the moment he sensed the danger.As everyone secretly watched, anticipating the outcome, something unexpectedly strange unfolded.Upon hearing the lion's roar, Mia calmly turned towards it, her confidence unwavering. Unfazed, she stepped forward, using her teleportation magic to effortlessly reach the lion. To everyone's surprise, she gently stroked the lion's face, and miraculously, the ferocious beast grew calm, sitting peacefully in front of her.In a gesture of trust, the lion raised its massive paw and offered it to Mia, acknowledging her as an unexpected ally.With the lion's paw in her han
Everyone was taken aback by her peculiar behavior."Let's commence the conference," she declared, her face devoid of any emotion."I've gone through all your concerns. Based on them, the mortality rate has risen, and magic is waning. What about the herbs I provided to each of you?" she inquired."Princess, the herbs did aid in healing, but their effects were short-lived; the ailment returned after a few days," responded the Phoenix Leader."The same holds true for all of us," added the Griffin leader."I've recently devised an alternative approach, although it's temporary. Nonetheless, I intend to implement it with your cooperation," she explained, and they all nodded in agreement."I need each of you to bring the affected beasts to the island. This time, I plan to use the water from the Magical Lake along with other magical essences. It will require my magical power and a bit from each of you to enhance its potency. Additionally, you'll receive a list of specific herbs to collect from
Mia trembled, her eyes wide with fear, upon seeing Hao drenched in blood."Hao, why are you covered in blood? Where are my siblings?" She hurried towards him, her voice filled with panic."It's not my blood; I'm a spirit, I can't bleed. Your siblings are safe, but someone took them," Hao explained."What? Who took them? And please don't tell me this blood belongs to them?""Don't worry, they're unharmed. Some humans took them, but I sensed a Magical White Wolf nearby. This blood is Liana's," Hao started, but Mia cut him off."She lost so much blood, and you just stood there? Take me to them now," she scolded him, her eyes blazing with anger."Don't worry, I used a healing spell on her. She's not bleeding anymore, although she hasn't fully healed. Come with me; I'll take you to them," Hao reassured her."But how did she get injured?" Mia's concern deepened as she sought answers from Hao.Hao relayed the situation to Mia, his voice filled with urgency. "Both of them secretly went out whi
Hao appeared, his voice cold, "Let them face the consequences, Mia. They deserve it. And by the way, I've already brought your siblings home."Mia, suspicious, questioned him, "Did you reveal everything to them?" pointing towards the leaders."Of course, I did. Those wolves dared to harm you, but I intervened in time. I sensed the old wolf's evil intentions and rushed to protect you. Though you had already passed out, the Magical Tree helped you recover. But there might still be traces of the toxin in your body," Hao explained, hoping for praise but received a swift hit on the head from Mia."Ouch... why did you hit your savior? You are such an ungrateful... humph..." Hao seethed with anger."You are becoming increasingly disobedient. I never asked for your interference. Have you even considered the consequences of endangering me and my siblings? What's the point of your magic and powers if you run to others for help? You're growing lazy day by day. I'm sending you for Magical meditati
She caressed the sword's blade with her fingers, her tone laced with a potent mix of threat and confidence. "Only a single strike from this sword, and all of you will be reduced to ashes. This blade is just a minuscule manifestation of my magic, akin to a single grain of rice. It serves as a testament to my unimaginable power. Yet, one of you attempted to bribe me, while another nearly succeeded in ending my life. Even though you may not have intended to kill me, the cold toxin you used almost proved fatal. Understand this: my strength doesn't make me immortal. I owe my survival to the Healing Tree. Had I not awakened, your fate would have been far bleaker."She shifted her gaze to them, "Moreover, my power extends beyond that of common humans or other Chi members who have lived before or will live after me. Despite your efforts, your antidote fails to fully heal me. I spare you today, but don't mistake my mercy for weakness. Remember, the one responsible for this chaos is Elder Master
Mia's voice echoed through the room as she directed the group, "I have something important to discuss with the Young Master, so the rest of you may leave." With that, they swiftly departed, leaving him standing there, his curiosity piqued. The portal closed behind them, cutting off any glimpse of the outside world."Follow me," Mia said, her tone carrying a sense of urgency. She led him to the grandeur of the Conference Hall, its polished surfaces gleaming under the soft glow of ambient light. Mia gracefully took her seat at the head of the table, and with a subtle gesture, invited him to sit beside her."Your Highness," he inquired, his voice laced with curiosity, "Is there a specific business matter you require my assistance with?" His eyes met hers, searching for clues in the depths of her gaze. The atmosphere was charged with anticipation. Mia regarded him thoughtfully. "Hmm... It's something related to the Island. By the way, do you know what this room is called?"He contemplated
Late at night, Mia emerged in her garden, drawing a deep breath before venturing indoors. Upon entering the kitchen, an old woman greeted her cheerfully, "Greetings, Your Highness."Mia arched an eyebrow, and the old lady chuckled, "I apologize. I meant greetings to my dear Mia."A warm smile graced Mia's lips, "Ah, that's more like my sweet Grandma Wen. I'm utterly exhausted."Mia went to her and hugged her tightly."Thank God you are finally back. I was really worried about you. The kids were also worried about you," the old lady said, her voice filled with genuine concern and relief.Mia released her from the hug, concern etched on her face. "Are they both alright?""No need to worry, they are both fine, but Liana is a bit hurt. They ate their lunch and went back to their rooms. Oh, I forgot to mention, your Grandpa Wen is a bit sick. If I don't have anything else to do, I will go back," the old lady informed her."Okay, you can go back. Thank you for always helping us. If Grandpa's
"Lin, after finding out about my condition did you give me your blood?", I asked him.But he remained silent.I went towards the door with all my anger filled inside me.Lin came behind me and grabbed my hand, "Mia, where are you going?""It is none of your business. Let go of my hand", I told him without turning back.He came and stood in front of me, "Mi Mi, I can't let you go until you recover.""Why did you give me your blood when I had already told you not to?", I screamed out those words without thinking.Lin grabbed both of my hands, "I am sorry Mi but I would never leave you dying until and unless I am not dead myself. Whenever you are in danger I won't step back. I won't listen to you while protecting you. This time it was just a few drops of blood but if one day it is my whole life, even then I won't hesitate or step back." I felt him step closer to me and then he stopped when a few inches of distance were left,"Mi, I had lost you once but I can't afford to lose you again.
I withdrew from the hug and looked at his shocked face. There was moisture appearing in his eyes. This time he hugged me.I was breathless because of the sudden hug. He hugged me tightly but didn't say a word. I waited for him to talk. After a while, I felt his hot tears on my shoulder. I don't know why but I wanted to calm him. Without another thought, I touched his head.With my other hand I began to tap his back, "Li Li, don't cry, please. I think I shouldn't have told you about my memory coming back. It had made you sad."He sniffed and then withdrew from the hug, "Mi Mi, you don't know how long I had waited for this moment. It is not that I am sad. It's just that I am too happy and tired. I am tired of waiting and hiding my emotions all this time."I couldn't help but wiped out his tears, "I am sorry."Lin looked at me and grabbed my hands, "Mia, after Mom's death I wanted to die. It was you who brought hope to my life. Those five years with you were like five centuries. Althoug
Mia's POVI found myself in a familiar environment. I thought that I might be inside the stone realm and looked around but then realized that it was the dream that had haunted me for years.This time everything seemed different because stead of my childhood self, I the older me is inside this dream.I began to walk in the green field. Suddenly, it began to rain heavily. I went to a nearby tree to take shelter."*sob* Mom*sob*", I heard someone sobbing.I went to look around and then saw a boy sitting beneath a nearby tree. His face was hidden in his arms but I felt familiar with him. I stepped towards him.Then a girl appeared. "Huh... That's me..." That was the younger me, I saw in my previous dreams. She went close to him and sat close to him.The younger me calmed him down and put a bandage on his wound. The boy soon stopped crying. They both introduced themselves to each other.The boy told me his name was Li while the younger me told her name was Mi."Wait a second, isn't it wha
I sighed in relief and turned around to the bookshelf, "I must be fast."I approached the books and began to read the text on them."Let me help you a bit", the bird told me and then flew close to the books. "Among these books, there is a book named Heart of Crystals. Find that book, it will guide you."" Thanks for telling me that but it would be great if you had told me about how to solve these puzzles", I told it and continued solving the puzzle."Humph... Ungrateful. You should be thankful that I told you the name. Now I won't help you anymore", it flew to the table near the bookshelf.I think I had angered it.I scratched my head in confusion, "What is this? I can't understand it at all?"I touched one of the books and began to focus on it. There was a mixture of scripts written there. It was like, 1325 Huã For Xiūxi."Wait a second...", an idea clicked in my mind."If we take the name in English then 1 is for A, 3 for C, 2 for B, and 5 for E. Then it becomes ACBE but it is not a
Mia got up from the ground with blood flowing out of the wound on her forehead and rushed toward the spirits. One after another she killed many of them."Mia, don't push yourself hard. Stop it", Hao who was inside the shield protecting the stone shouted.She ignored him and kept fighting. The spirits were still in a great amount. A giant spirit came and hit her. She fell to the ground and threw up blood."Ahhh... ", she was in pain.All the spirits rushed towards her and she was covered by them. She tried her best to escape them but was heavily injured.She growled in anger and pain, "Now, you left no other choice."Rays of light came out from the group of spirits that had surrounded Mia and they all fell apart. There was a huge beam of light and when the light disappeared Mia was in the air. Wearing Red armor, her hair was tied up in a ponytail and different elements were flowing around her."Miaaaa... Why must you harm yourself...", Hao screamed.The spirits slowly got up and were a
I stared at her in surprise, "Then do you mean I am the real one?"There was a sad expression on her face, "Hmmm, you are the one. Because of me, the situation had become worse and now I don't want to repeat the same mistake. Yes, it is you, Mia's true mate and the one who will aid her to end her curse."Happiness rushed inside me at her words. When I looked at mom something was bothering me. She smiled at me but there was sadness in her smile.I grabbed her hands, "Mom, why do I feel that you are sad at the fact of me being her mate?"She looked at me with fear in her eyes that I could not understand, "I am not sad because you are her mate. I am just regretting the decision that I made.""Mom, what decision?", I asked her confused."Lin, If I hadn't hidden your mark years ago then the situation would be much better. Just because of that selfish decision of mine not only you but little Mia is suffering a lot. Even though I am guiding her but still I can't help her to live happily", te
Lin's POVI don't know why but something is wrong with Mia. My whole body was trembling. My face was covered in sweat and tears flowed down my eyes."Ugh...", I grabbed my chest.There was a sharp pain in my heart and then a sharp pain started in my neck as well. A strong flash of light came out from the left side of my neck, "Ahhh...."I opened my eyes and found myself in a strange place. I was laying beside a lake. I got up from the ground and looked around but there was no one. There was a familiar tree near the lake."The healing tree ...", I remembered.I went close to it and touched it."Not only this tree but the whole place is a healing place", a familiar voice came.I turned around to see the speaker. I freeze at the sight of the person.I took a step forward, "M...mo...m..."I ran and hugged her, "Mom, where were you? Why did you leave me like this?"She hugged me back tightly, "My dear Li Li. How have you been?""*sob*How could be a motherless child?", I was unable to stop
Ask your heart", he glanced at me.I got up from the chair angrily, "Grandpa Wen, please tell me. Don't put me in further confusion."He looked at Mia, "She is awake."I glanced at Mia. She seemed to be waking up. I went to her."Mia", I grabbed her hand.Mia moved her head a little and then slowly opened her eyes," Umm...*cough*"Grandpa Wen brought water, "Here give it to her."I helped her to sit. After drinking water, she looked around and a strange laugh escaped her.She stared at her hands, "Fate is really cruel.""Mia, what do you mean? Aren't you happy that you are fine?", I asked her with curiosity.She lift her head to look at me since she was resting her back on my chest. Our eyes met. There was very little distance between our faces. I could feel her breath. My heart stopped beating at the sight of those beautiful chocolate eyes. I forgot to breathe. "*cough*", Grandpa Wen's cough brought me back to my senses.Mia was still staring into my eyes. She smiled, "I thought I w
"Chirp....chirp...", I opened my eyes and found myself in the backyard of Mia's house. There was a peaceful environment. The birds were chirping around. Grandpa Wen was standing next to me."How dare you?", there was a scream from a woman. I looked at Grandpa Wen, "Who's voice is that?"He looked at me, "Stay quiet and wait."I stood there silently looking at the door that most probably led to the kitchen."Mom, I am sorry...ahh...ahh", there was a little girl's cry.Then a woman appeared holding the arm of a little girl who was crying. That girl..."Mia...", the name escaped my mouth. Grandpa Wen smiled, "I knew you would recognize her. Don't try to go to her because it is just a glimpse of the past and you can't do anything nor can she see you.""*sob* mom, I... I am....s...s...orrrr...y", she kept on crying and sobbing but that woman ignored and dragged her.She dragged her to a tree where the sun was bright and it was a hot place considering the weather of summer. A big metal s
