Stuck behind them all, he was frustrated to no end, and yet every time he tried to pass through them, he was confronted with guards disallowing him to move forward.

"I apologize, my lord, but it\'s for your own safety," after refusing the guard\'s requests to get out of the castle, they weren\'t letting him take any more chances. "I\'d still advise you to escape from her just like your friend Fay, and that girl-"

Mid-way through his sentence a wave of incinerating flames took over the pathway right up ahead. Screaming in agony from being boiled alive under their hefty steel armor countless guards flopped onto the ground the moment the flames retreated. Feeling the burn over their backs, the guards facing Haruki slowly turned to the devastating sight.

The very moment their eyes laid on their companion\'s bodies being melted under the bubbling steel, they had all but lost their willingness to continue marching forward.

"Y-you weren\'t lying…" Clutching her fist over her anxious heart, Moriyana drew deep breaths trying to calm her body.

"WE! I MEAN I-" Turning towards the duke, one of the guards got down to his knees. "I CAN\'T GO OUT THERE!"

Right after him, the others came groveling over Haruki\'s feet begging him not to make them face the enraged dragon. Having no intention to force them to face Roselia, he pulled his legs out of their grips and moved around them.

\'They all know it\'s Rose, I wouldn\'t wanna face her too if I had a real choice.\' Just from their exposure to Rose torturing the assassin, none of the guards had the galls to go against her.

"Moriyana, are you coming with me? I don\'t know if you can fight but it might be necessary since I don\'t wanna lose the castle again," outlining the more obvious excuse he glanced at her from over his shoulders.

\'She\'s probably mad at me, and if I just run away she\'s bound to cause more chaos and destruction.\' After getting a nod from Moriyana, they both continued forward, leaving behind the guards too scared to move a muscle.

"I\'ve heard she ate dragons in her prime, maybe you should try and activate that skill," although her suggestion was sound, Haruki had already tried and failed the activation numerous times.

"I still can\'t do it, and I don\'t wanna eat this dragon," despite everything he\'d said to her, he still harbored deep in his heart some appreciation for all that she\'s done for him so far. "I may not like her anymore, but I don\'t hate her either."

Conflicted as to what Haruki even meant by those words, Moriyana kept following through the burning ice floor. Glancing around the place, they noticed the ice pillars trimming up from the heat, and the water dripping out of them was cutting their time shorter. Thankfully, however, with most of the castle\'s structure made with ice, the fire had little chance of burning up the whole thing.

Making haste they reached the hallway leading up to the dragon seal door. From a distance alone, they noticed not only that the seal was broken and fallen over with the frozen door, but the rest of Haruki\'s servants standing right by it peeking into the dark room.

"Asuka, what\'s happening?" Rushing up to them from behind, Haruki asked with them still looking right in.

"Master?" Turning around, Asuka\'s eyes widened up. "What are you doing here?! It\'s not safe!"

"I can ask you the same thing," Haruki\'s response left her speechless for a moment.

"It\'s Rose, we heard a loud noise and then saw her breaking the seal and getting inside," keeping things brief Riley let Haruki in on the situation report. "Why did she snap like that though?

"I can smell burning flesh from here, did she burn someone?" Dreadfully looking into the direction Haruki had come from, she felt as though she would vomit from the stench. "The smell is too strong."

Pinching her nose shut, she gulped down whatever angst had built up in her throat.

"She killed a fleet of guards, and the rest probably ran off after seeing what she did," turning to Margarette who simply kept glaring inside the door, an ominous feeling crept over Haruki.

"I…I can see, my foresight it\'s trying to show me something," taking hold of her mind, something sinister was crawling inside her head. Clutching her head from a sudden migraine, she hunched over forward struggling through the hurt. "Aghhhh!"

Groaning in pain, she was instantly brought to her knees. Quickly getting to her, Riley supported her with her arms and suggested breathing slowly. As if all this was a regular occurrence between the two, they kept their calm until Riley managed to get Margarette back onto her feet.

Terrified by her pained groans each one of them was just glaring at the two in shock. However, as the bone-rattling screech of a dragon came from inside the once-sealed door, they knew they didn\'t have much time to figure everything out.

"Th-there\'s a dragon in there…" Mumbled Margarette still panting from the effects of her foresight.

"It\'s Rose, we already knew that," replied Haruki.

"No…" freeing herself from Riley\'s support, Margarette held her hand toward the door and obscured it with countless holychain binds. "She\'s in there, but I\'m not talking about Rose."

"Then who?" Haruki asked, moving closer to her. "Who the hell is in there?"

Grabbing her by the shoulder, he had her look straight into his eyes. Tightly gripped under his fingers, he could feel her body shaking from fear of whatever was on the other side of that door. For a moment, her eyes jittered about nervously, and her lips quivered to speak but no words came out of them, but as tightened his grip further she was reminded of the torture from the demonic spies and what he was capable of when angered.

"It\'s the maddened dragon!" Instinctively jerking him away, she panted restlessly from distress.

"No…" Moriyana let out in a hushed whisper.

"Goddammit, who the hell is-"

Breaking through the holychain binds, a ball of intense fire sent Haruki flying across the corridor.

\'Temporary status Mistress of Darkness granted!\' Rang the announcement as he hit his head against an ice wall.
