8 Episode 8 "Change Part II"

Catarina brutally shattered Viol's other leg just after she broke first leg, as if to hear him scream more. This time she was stunned by the reaction of the non-screaming Viol. It's just that Viol, who was knocked down, wasn't making any more noise. He didn't even have the look of pain on his face. Upset with her nerves, Catarina lost her composure as if she had lost a little toy's of her and unable to hold herself, she put her hand in Viol's stomach. It was so easy, like cutting a piece of butter. She could feel Viol dying, who started vomiting blood. She was very disappointed. She dreamed of enjoying this moment more.

Catarina sighed deeply and began preparing her teleportation spell to return home. Since the distance was greater this time, the spell with just words would not be effective enough. She bit his thumb with her tooth and then started drawing a circle of magic on the floor with her blood. Meanwhile, Catarina saw something interesting.

There was a little blue light shining on one of the bodies around. Unable understand what this was, Catarina went to the body for a closer look. Meanwhile, blue lights began to appear on the other bodies. two, three, four... Their numbers were growing. There were as many as thirty in total. One on each body. The lights started flickering. Their tremors grew stronger as they went, and then they all flew together into Viol. As the lights went in, the Viol slowly took off and began to glow blindly. He started to float and the wound on Viol's stomach also closed slowly.

Catarina, who had never come across something like this in her whole life, was stunned. How could Viol, who doesn't even have a pool of Mana, float in the air? Catarina had her arm in her face, trying to shield herself from the light so she couldn't see what was happening. She hadn't had the slightest idea. Meanwhile, the wind intensified and thunder rumbled. The brightness slowly waned. In the end, the glare disappeared completely and was replaced by darkness. Viol was lying unconscious on the floor.

Catarina immediately ran towards Viol. She leaned into his heart and then checked his pulse. Catarina, her eyes growing in amazement and fear, sprang from her place. Viol's heart, which had just stopped, was beating like a prop. However, it was not the only unexplainable situation. Catarina, whose eyes slowly slipped on Viol's wrist, suffered from another shock. The "Joker" sign that Viol had been carrying since his birth had been replaced by the numeral "4". Alfred was in the same situation as Catarina. They both looked at each other and Viol in astonishment.

Catarina was just about to open her mouth and start talking, the howling from the depths of the Forest stopped her.

- "We must leave now, Master Catarina."Alfred said. He had a calm, serious expression on his face. The training he had received over the years had taught him that he should maintain his composure no matter what.

Catarina pointed to Viol with her trembling hands.

- "What about him! What do we do with him! Don't you see! He's still-"

Alfred covered Catarina's lips with his finger.

- "Calm down, Master Catarina. Yes, even though he's alive and the hole in his stomach is closed, his legs are still broken! Monsters are coming here, too. If we leave him in this state, he'll surely die! But whatever happens, we must stick up to the plan. We need to take master Gerard and get out of here right now!"

With Alfred's words, Catarina wiped away the tears that had accumulated in her eyes;

- "You're right! We have to get out of here right now. If we're too late fortunes, they might have suspect us! You take Gerard! I'll finish the Magic Circle!"

Alfred, a little outside the circle with Gerard in his lap, was waiting for Catarina to complete the spell. Catarina, who just finished drawing the circle of magic, was now saying the words needed to do the spell. After she was done, the light began to scatter from the circle she drew. Alfred jumped into the circle with Gerard. Catarina, who looked at Viol one last time while waiting for the light to swallow them, saw his eyes staring at them with anger and hatred. She smiled to Viol ruthlessly. And then they vanished in the light that surround them.

Edward was the only member of one of the noblest families in the" Clubs" Kingdom and also its leader. At least that's how the people in the kingdom knew him. He had recently come to the kingdom of "Diamonds" because he was quite bored recently and wanted to take a holiday. Since the two kingdoms were allies, their citizens were free to enter and exit between the two countries. Edward was quite happy to be able to enter and leave the kingdom without being known to anyone. Famous by its hot springs and food the "Diamonds" kingdom was had visited by Edward earlier during a mission given by the kingdom. Edward, who liked the treatment of kingdom, had only come as a visitor this time. Although he wanted to make plenty of friends in the kingdom of "Diamonds", his large and muscular appearance scared people away. Deeply disappointed Edward's bad memories of the kingdom were not limited to that either. An unidentified thief had stolen his horse. Because of that he had to go home by foot.

Edward, who liked to travel at night, had left the "Diamonds" Kingdom by noon. Since the journey could be long and dangerous, he did not neglect to take his weapon and armor with him. Even though he's stronger than anything that exists in this world right now.

Reaching the Crystel forest towards the evening hours, Edward was startled by the screams of a little boy. He started running in the direction of the screams. When he arrived at the scene, he could not help but amazed by little boy, who was fighting a group of monstrous Wolves. Even though he had lived for hundreds of years, he saw just a few people that had the courage as this child had.

He didn't know why but something was constantly saying he had to save this child. He jumped down from where he was and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the carriage. Edward, who had killed the Wolves in one go, who had jumped towards the boy, slowly turned behind him. He carefully removed his mask and placed a gentle smile on his face. He didn't want to scare the kid.

- "Are you still alive, kid?" he said.
