Hallow Throne

When Klaus joined CoreFury, Roy said, "Let's go." Klaus responded, "Where exactly are we going, sir?" Roy explained, "We aren't going anywhere physically; we're using a portal." Klaus asked, "How?" Roy introduced James, a CoreFury elite with spatial magic, saying, "Klaus, meet James. He will create a portal for us." Klaus inquired, "Are you coming with us, sir?" Roy replied, "I'll meet you on the other side. Portals aren't my kind of thing." Klaus agreed, and as soon as he crossed the portal, Roy was there to greet him, saying, "Welcome to CoreFury HQ." Klaus was amazed and asked, "Sir, how are you so fast? How did you manage to reach here before us?" Roy revealed, "I have star magic; I can teleport between my stars. I left one here before heading to the capital." Impressed, Klaus said, "That's impressive." Roy continued, "Now, let me introduce you to everyone." He introduced Sara with water and flame magic, James with spatial magic, and Wasif with soap magic as the CoreFury elites. Klaus greeted them, and then, a figure from behind said, "Hello, newbie." Klaus asked, "Sir, are you really The Harbinger of Light, the great Captain Licht?" Licht confirmed, "Yes, that's me." Roy added, "Now, let me show you our other members." He introduced Jenos with repelling magic, Chessie with mirror magic, Jiara with blue flame magic, Alendora with healing-based magic, and Zarid with phase magic. Klaus expressed his gratitude, and Roy asked for Klaus's full name, to which Klaus replied, "I don't have one; I'm an orphan."

The next morning at 9 am in the CoreFury base, Klaus apologized, saying, "Sorry, sir Roy, I overslept. I am now ready to report." Roy complimented, "That uniform suits you." Klaus asked, "Sir, where do I report?" Roy answered, "Like all of us, you will report to me." Klaus agreed, and they went to the breakfast cafeteria. In the dining hall, Klaus inquired about Captain Licht's whereabouts, and Roy explained, "I'm sorry, but he's sleeping. He'll wake up around 2 pm." Klaus was surprised, asking, "What, sir? You're kidding, right?" Roy assured him, "No, I'm serious," and Klaus realized that Roy was telling the truth. Klaus said, "It's okay, sir."

On the other hand, around 8 am in the ExistForger base, Astrea woke up and reported to Lucifer, saying, "Good morning, sir. Astrea reporting for duty." Lucifer commented, "You sure are energetic this morning." Riruru from her room yelled, "Who's that idiot screaming so early?" Lucifer advised, "Don't pay too much attention to her; she was drunk last night." They went to the cafeteria for breakfast, and Lucifer noticed the place was exceptionally clean. Astrea mentioned, "Thank you, sir. I cleaned it this morning." Lucifer said, "You don't have to do that; we have others for that." Astrea replied, "Okay, sir," and they had breakfast.

In the garden, Lucifer enjoyed coffee, and Astrea asked, "Sir, when do I join my first mission?" Lucifer assured her, "Don't worry; it won't be long now." Astrea inquired, "Sir, how do I grow stronger?" Lucifer advised, "It's simple, actually. Just struggle and keep struggling until you become the strongest." He sensed something in Astrea's eyes and asked, "You want to achieve something, right?" Astrea confessed, "Yes, sir. I want to become the Grandmaster of the Magic Knights." Lucifer probed further, asking, "Why exactly?" Astrea shared her motivation, "My adopted father was a knight, but he passed away. I want to follow his legacy and become a great knight, sir." Lucifer questioned, "Is that what you truly want? Is it something you feel compelled to do?" Astrea hesitated for a moment and then firmly responded, "No, sir." Lucifer noticed the delay and said, "You were two seconds late in responding. Why did you hesitate?" Astrea admitted, "I don't know." Lucifer advised, "Work on that. Your reason to be strong—keep thinking about it." Astrea acknowledged, "Sure, sir."
