Under the watchful eyes of Oto Kingdom's elite, Professor Orcanora stood before the audience in a live broadcast. His hands shimmered with illusion magic as he performed a fake purification ritual on the Phantom Table, symbolizing the rise of a new purifier.
As planned, Orcanora fell into a simulated deep slumber. The crowd believed he was the 14th Purifier, sacrificing himself for the kingdom's protection.
King Marshel Moto Fire III whispered to General Frozy and Duke Vernos,
"He has given his youth for our realm. May his name be honored."
Suddenly, the broadcast distorted. Everyone fell silent.
A bolt of lightning shattered the sky.
A mysterious hooded figure appeared, unleashing Stun Shock — Circle 10 Lightning Spell, incapacitating the king, general, and duke.
"Finally," the figure said. "My ice puppets are lost... but now I claim a new one."
He raised his arms and invoked Mana Crown: Diamond, channeling Circle 97 Spell — Ice Blade Razor, aiming directly at Orcanora.
Just as the spell launched—
Lucifer appeared in a flash, casting Infernal Domain — Circle 200, forming a blazing shield that blocked the attack.
"Not today," he said.
Lucifer followed up with Light Bash — Circle 25 Light Spell, hitting the attacker squarely and knocking him backward.
The hood dropped.
"Duke vernos says he is our Baron Mazora"
"He's a fairy—violet-haired… noble class."
Mazora grinned. "You've uncovered me. But I came prepared."
He raised his wand. Suddenly, 2,500 warriors appeared, surrounding the nation in spectral formation.
Lucifer narrowed his gaze.
He invoked Dark Spectre — Circle 75, and summoned the Dark Veil, tearing open the ground beneath him.
From the shadows rose Metro, an ancient demon lord wrapped in obsidian flame.
"Who summoned me?" Metro growled.
Lucifer stepped forward.
"Sir Metro, I did. A dying man once gave me ancient immortal spells and whispered: Use this in dire times. This betrayal by mazora vs king Marshel moto fire lll is that time."
Metro paused, then nodded.
"As you wish, Detective."
He raised his claw and cast Dark Flinch Faint — Circle 40, a forgotten spell. The entire 2,500-strong army collapsed with Flinching fell like coconuts fell from tree"
Lucifer turned to King Marshel moto fire lll .
"Your Majesty, please take all into custody. The truth will be unveiled. In two hours, we meet in Royal Court."
He turned to Metro.
"Thank you, Lord Metro… for standing beside someone who was… no one."
