Even before Idan and Arabel returned to the Kingdom, everyone sensed that something serious was happening.

The warm and bright daytime atmosphere was replaced by a cool night gloom.

The balance of Light and Darkness, as well as the balance of the rings of the seasons, was disrupted.

"What's going on?" — Arslan asked Irene, but she didn't know the answer herself. All she knew was that Idan and Arabel had left in a hurry.

By that time, almost all the residents had gathered at Idan and Arabel's house, with the exception of the doppelgangers, who didn't care and were engaged in construction.

This was the first time something like this had happened, so no one could figure out what exactly was going on.

"Let's turn to Sierra and the others," Arslan suggested, and Irene nodded without thinking twice.

They turned to the first Doppelganger they saw and asked him to return to Limbo and call the others.

The doppelganger nodded and returned to Limbo, and soon they were joined by Sierra, Lucinda, Milena, and even Geminia. The doppelgangers, who usually didn't care, sensed their ancestor's presence, stopped what they were doing and started watching her.

"The balance of Light and Darkness has been disrupted," Sierra and the rest of Limbo noticed almost immediately.

"Someone or something is pumping out a huge amount of the element of Light," Lucinda added.

They quickly exchanged glances and, after expanding their Soul Force, checked the ring of the seasons. They also found an anomaly there.

"The situation is the same with the element of fire," they noted.

"Where is Idan?" — Sierra asked Irene, realizing who was behind all this.

When Irene heard Sierra's question, she also realized that her younger brother was involved in what was happening.

"He came recently and said that he and Arabel urgently need to go to Junonia," Irene shared information about where the couple had gone.

"Are they in Junonia?" frowned Sierra. The others were also puzzled, not understanding why they would return there in such a hurry.

While they were trying to guess what had happened, an Access Portal opened in front of the lawn of the house. Nemo and an unknown girl got out of it.

As soon as Nemo landed on the green grass, his right arm detached, fell to the ground, and turned into a small black cat.

After staggering a bit, she looked at Nemo with concern, then, noticing her ancestor, rushed towards her, letting out a meow.

"Nemo?" said Lucinda and Sierra, who knew him well. They came over to check on his condition, as well as the condition of the girl who was next to him.

"He's unconscious," Lucinda stated after examining him and starting to treat his wounds.

Sierra looked at the girl and frowned slightly. Her face seemed familiar to her, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.

"It looks like Nemo ran into the Valkyries, and Idan and Arabel went to help him," Geminia said as she approached them. She gently stroked the still restless Kitty, trying to calm her down.

Geminia's words surprised everyone present, especially the Valkyries like Sierra and Lucinda. They knew that Idan and Arabel would encounter Valkyries in the future, but they had no idea that it would happen so quickly.

"It's all because of this girl," Geminia said, looking at the unknown girl lying next to Nemo.

"It seems the Valkyries were hunting her, and Nemo stood up for her."

"And judging by what's happening here, Idan is currently fighting against them in his Spirit Form," Sierra added, putting all the fragments together and massaging her right temple in frustration.

"This is a big problem," Lucinda said, not hiding her concern, and everyone nodded in agreement.

"No matter how strong they become, they're not ready to face the Valkyries yet," Sierra sighed.

Because Sierra and the others were talking out loud, Irene and the others could clearly hear their conversation, and their concern for Idan and Arabel's couple only increased.

Elira, standing to the side with Essora, watched the scene with undisguised curiosity. However, the appearance of these powerful women deeply disturbed her.

Elira herself, being only a Platinum-ranked Flaming Crane, realized that these women were even scarier than the creatures she personally knew and feared.

This discovery deeply shocked her.

After Lucinda finished treating Nemo, she turned her attention to the girl.

Everyone present stared at the stranger's face, trying to figure out who she was.

However, before Lucinda could start the treatment, she abruptly withdrew her hand and frowned.

"Fallen Valkyrie," she said, drawing Sierra's attention.

Sierra, who at first only glimpsed someone familiar in her and nothing more, now, after hearing Lucinda's words, decided to check the information and also discovered traces of the Valkyrie's bloodline.

Then, after a moment's thought, she looked at Lucinda and said:

"Heal her."

"Eh? But she..." Lucinda, amazed by Sierra's words, stared at her with wide eyes.

"Heal her." Sierra repeated. "As soon as she comes to, we can find out why she lost her wings and why the other sisters are after her."

Lucinda looked at the unconscious girl again, and after thinking about Sierra's words, she put aside all doubts and began healing.

Soon, Sierra, Geminia, and Lucinda noticed something unusual and, looking towards the center of the fire area, their faces clouded.

By that time, Lucinda had already stabilized the girl's condition.

"Look after them," they had barely uttered these words when Irene, Arslan, Sierra, Lucinda, Milena and Geminia disappeared from their place.

They appeared in the center of a fire area that was no longer as filled with the element of fire as before.

There they found Idan, sitting in his Alpha of Fire form, with multiple wounds, a missing arm, and a damaged right eye.

"Belle, calm down and stop crying, okay? I'm not going to die," Idan smiled despite all his pain and tried to comfort Arabel, who was crying and trying to help him.

"But...Dan..." Arabel couldn't bear to see all his wounds.

"Ahaha, cough, cough," before he could laugh, Idan started coughing and felt unbearable pain again.

"Big sister! Please help him!" Arabel pleaded with Lucinda.

"You look like shit," Sierra said, frowning. She did not share Idan's optimism and was upset that he made her younger sister cry.

"At least I'm sure everything will heal before the wedding," Idan said with difficulty.

"Okay, stop talking and sit still!" said Lucinda sharply, coming up to him and starting the treatment.

"Thank you, big sister," — Arabel thanked her.

Idan has already taken the Rank 5 recovery pill that he bought from the System for 4,000 System Points. However, even it couldn't help him quickly, only relieving the pain a little.

After starting the treatment, Lucinda noticed something strange and looked at Idan carefully.

"Idan, who did you run into?" she asked in a serious tone.

Not only she, but Sierra and Geminia also noticed it.

Most of Idan's wounds had already begun to heal, but a few serious wounds, although recovering, were very slow and still posed a danger to his life.

"I don't know if it's luck or bad luck, but in such a short time, I've encountered a second Rank 6 creature," Idan said with a faint smile. "It was a Lightning Valkyrie of the 6th rank."
