[Somewhere at Holy Palace]
[Young Aries, point of view]
Saintess Angela. Rumour has it that she's older than her looks. While not exactly immortal, she's said to be born right after the sealing of the fallen around 90 years back.
She's a beautiful noble looking long black hair lady with faint freckles on her cheek, which just add to her charm, that, as well as the sweet lavender perfume that she always wear. 30 years old, but beautiful nonetheless, and as a paladin for the old follower, I thought of devoting my life for her, or so I thought
”Sis... help me. I'm scared!” [Young Lisa]
”Come on! Get moving!” [Priest A]
”No! Please, don't do that to her!” [Young Aries]
Saintess Angela are currently locking us all, whether human or non human, for some sort of experimentation. Every day, I can feel my body becoming more and more abnormal. She might give me some anaesthesia during the time, but the horror of having my body cut before my eyes, the horror of seeing my little sister, Lisa, being stampede by those old follower for trying to retaliate... I am near my breaking point, but
”It's fine. We will let you out” [Erinmorlin]
”They will come and rescue us” [Flinar]
”Who?” [Young Lisa]
”You'll see” [Erinmorlin]
I'm skeptical. I don't even know who those two are, and
(They're non human... can they be trusted?) [Young Aries]

”My, to think that we have the fragments of Drant magic core with us. Now then, I wonder how I should implant this to you, Paladin Aries” [Angela]
~Spit~
”Why you!” [Priest B]
”Ughh...” [Young Aries]
The priest launch an attack towards my left eye with his staff. I thought the momentary blackout was just because of an injury, but
”That's not good. You shouldn't destroy her left eye. But, I think I can just implant and integrate this fragment of magic core there” [Angela]
Since I spit on her face, she didn't bother to give me any anaesthesia this time around, and the experiment to integrate Drant's power into my body went on and on, and somehow, my body and Drant's seems compatible, and thus, every day, I was brought to the room filled with strong smell medication. Yesterday, today, tomorrow, day after day. I feel like ai was drugged at some point
as
”I have my eyes on you for quite some time now, Paladin Aries” [King of Holy Palace]

”Halt!” [Priest A]
”Just who are you people!” [Queen of Holy Palace]
”Well, I can't really speak who are they, but you see, I am just a mere young traveling bard” [Traveling bard?]
”Everyone! Release them all!” [Very old elf]
”We will free those people!” [Liger beastman]
”All of you, prioritize saving as much life as you could!” [Royal demon]
”Then, Paladin Aries, if you could help us?” [Angela]
”What power does she hold?” [Young Saint Louis]
So much for asking, but she's just threatening me since Lisa is with them, but
”Sis! Don't worry about me!” [Young Lisa]
”She's fine! She's with us!” [Erinmorlin]
”Prioritize saving yourself!” [Flinar]
”What! How... urghh?” [Angela]
”Thank you, for this power” [Young Aries]
