James's Wrath

"Who Is Single" a angelic beauty Come is all of sudden

James attempted to recover, his tone covered with cold sweet. "I mean, Helena is single. She's turned 18, and I can't help but wonder if my eccentricities are driving potential suitors away. Despite being rich, I seem to have become a one-man repellent." he boasted while felt sad

Seraphina rolled her eyes, her expression a mix of exasperation and amusement. "You think Helena's lack of romantic interest has anything to do with you? She hasn't called or sent any reports for a month, James. You should be worried about that instead of your matchmaking theories."

James waved his hand dismissively. "Let her be. In my youth, I ventured into the wilderness too."

"Only to get beaten up by Arthur," Seraphina interjected, a mischievous glint in her eyes.

James groaned, his face flushing slightly. "Do we have to bring that up? My grand display of lightning manipulation ended with me being scorched, my pants in ashes...". his black history, the first time he meet Arthur, Polimex's futher hero, and his rival in the salazar grand competition, he boasting about his lighting ability, yet he got burned to the ass.

Seraphina chuckled, clearly enjoying the memory. "And all thanks to Arthur, who seemed to enjoy roasting your ego along with your clothes."

James scowled. "I still can't believe he married her. Celestina, the 'dragon emperor's' daughter. How did that even happen?" James complained, it's not he doesn't want a rematch, but arthur has a wife, a beast, a crazy women

Seraphina raised an eyebrow, her smirk growing. "Oh, come on, James. You know that rivalry aside, Arthur and Celestina make quite the formidable pair."

"Formidable, my foot," James muttered under his breath. "More like a crazy duo. Did he marry her out of fear?"

Seraphina laughed openly now. "Fear? Or maybe he just fell head over heels for her. Love can be a powerful force, you know."

James huffed, crossing his arms. "Well, if that's what it takes to get a spouse, I'll take my chances with the silence."

Seraphina grinned mischievously. "Speaking of silence, remember when Helena was a little girl? The noise she could make could wake the dead."

James winced at the memory. "Ah, yes. I recall trying to read in peace, only to have her practicing her war cries right under my study window."

Seraphina chuckled. "And those drums she insisted on playing, even though she had no rhythm whatsoever. It's a wonder the neighbors never complained."

James sighed dramatically. "I thought the day would never come when I'd appreciate the sound of silence."

Seraphina patted his arm affectionately. "Well, enjoy it while it lasts. Because knowing our daughter, she'll be back with a bang soon enough."

"This time, is really aloof, Can we make another Helena or Ana?", James get closer to seraphine.

"No, No No" seraphine reject yet she look at james with some expectation, when they was about to kiss

Just as the atmosphere between them seemed to be thickening, a sudden knock at the window startled them both. A guard stood there, urgency etched across his face.

"Milady, Milord, it's urgent."

"Damn it, couldn't it wait a bit longer?" James muttered under his breath, his irritation palpable. He was clearly annoyed at the interruption of his good deeds.

"What happened", Seraphina give James a hard look, he is so shameless, I am the one who felt shy here.

James sent her an apologetic glance before turning his attention to the guard. "Well, speak up. What's so important that it couldn't wait a few more moments?"

The guard's voice trembled slightly as he spoke. "The army, Milord, all of our soldiers... they've vanished. And we've lost contact with Helena and Indah."

Seraphina's eyes widened in concern, her playful demeanor instantly replaced by worry. "What? Are you certain?"

James's frustration gave way to a surge of anxiety, and suddenly, a bolt of lightning crackled in the air around him, his emotions translating into his elemental abilities.

"What did you say?" His voice was a low, dangerous growl, his eyes flashing with a mix of anger and concern.

'Lightning Nova' James can release a burst of lightning energy in all directions, creating a spherical shockwave that radiates outwards. This ability is particularly useful for clearing crowds of enemies and creating breathing room in intense battles.

The guard swallowed nervously, sensing the storm brewing in both the sky and

The guard swallowed nervously, sensing the storm brewing both in the sky and in James's demeanor. "Tell me more," James demanded, his tone bordering on a threat.

Just as the charged atmosphere threatened to unleash James's lightning Nova, a holy light emerged from Seraphine's hand. With a swift, controlled movement, she struck James on the head.

"James, calm down," Seraphine commanded firmly, her voice infused with an authoritative energy. Her action seemed to have a dual purpose – quelling James's rage and preventing a potential catastrophe as the building around them began to crack under the weight of his anger.

Amusement flickered in Seraphine's eyes as she observed James's transformation into a veritable thunder god. Her own stone life, a magical artifact that protected her soul, emanated a subtle radiance, signifying her well-being. With a deft gesture, she extended the protective influence of the stone life towards James, a silent reassurance that she was unharmed.

"Tell me the details," Seraphine requested, her tone indicating that she was now in control of the situation.

The guard took a deep breath and began recounting the story. A hundred-strong army, accompanied by ten level 3 guards, had been dispatched. However, communication had been lost with all of them, and even the captain had suffered the shattering of his stone life – a grim indicator of death.

Seraphine listened carefully, her mind already working to analyze the situation. Her intellect was a valuable asset in times of crisis, and she knew that unraveling the mystery required a combination of logical deduction and instinct.

James's frustration was palpable as he vented, "What's happening in Polimax? Helena didn't go on a killing spree, did she?"

Seraphine's eyes narrowed as she contemplated the possibilities. "It could be a plot from the Polimax royal family, or even another kingdom altogether. The timing is too coincidental." as far seraphine know, Arthur is too dumb to create a plan (Diaz: of course he is), and Celestina doen't care about politic, If she care, with her power and intelegent, she already become Dragon Empress right now.

James was eager to take action, his impulsive nature pushing him towards immediate confrontation. He activated his Lightning Speed, a technique that harnessed his lightning magic to enhance his agility and speed. However, Seraphine intervened again.

"Stop it. This could very well be a trap," Seraphine cautioned, her words a reminder that haste could lead to disaster.

With a hint of exasperation, James retorted, "Nonsense. We're going to that Polimax royal family's place. Let's see if they has any involvement in this mess."

Seraphine's gaze held a mixture of concern and determination. "We'll investigate, but we must exercise caution. There's more to this situation than meets the eye."

As James prepared to depart, his lightning-charged determination evident, Seraphine's thoughts turned towards a web of intricacies that transcended mere coincidence. In their pursuit of answers, they would navigate a landscape of potential danger, deception, and political machinations, all while unraveling the enigma that had entwined itself with the fate of their world.

Suddenly, a call came through, the voice resonating in the room – a voice familiar yet intriguing.

"Hello there, is this James Mansion?" The voice carried a tone of warmth and curiosity.
