"Arius, the God of Darkness. The god that is shrouded with mystery. The one who rose to trample the light."
-Journal of Pope Vernal, Founder of the Three Divine Church

Somewhere in the scorching hot desert of the West, the Legion of Black Fire were busy..

.....sewing.

"Boss wanted this new batch of cloths delivered tomorrow!" Lagi, the second in command slash acting manager of Leona's clothing business, announce to everyone. They are the production team of Dawn's.

"This new batch of this season's Limited Edition set is gorgeous as always." Komento nilang lahat

"As expected of Boss, she's so good at everything." Tim, the obese subordinate, commented.

"She showed up yesterday to inform us that she'll be leaving school." Lagi

"Is she coming back here?" Tim

"Nope, she said she made a new friend and she's planning to travel in all parts of the continent." Lagi

Agad nakahinga ng maluwag ang lahat.

Aminin man nila o hindi, lahat sila ay may psychological trauma sa kanilang boss. She's just so scary.

All of them are Mortal Realm Spiritists, their combined combat power can be considered the strongest in the entire continent, they can rival the AI army of the Mechanic Empire. But despite that, they're just like obedient puppies when it comes to their boss.

"I wonder what is boss doing now?" Tim

"It's the Day of the Solstice, she's probably having fun." Lagi

Yes, today is the day of the Solstice.

The palace and the streets are decorated for the festivity. A circus arrived to perform.

Earlier that morning, the king along with the crown prince graced the kingdom with their presence through the annual parade.

The celebration last all day, and after sunset, its tradition for the entire family to gather and dine together as a thank you for the good harvest this year.

And today, Leona is going to the circus with her friends just like old times.

She wore some commoner clothes and a robe to hide her face. She's like a celebrity these days so she must be careful.

"Woah!" Leona gasped in amazement. The nostalgia of seeing the never-changing festive spirit of everyone during this time of the year is truly something. The streets are littered with decorations, everyone is in high spirits.

Booths of all kinds can be seen everywhere, attracting the attention of most people.

"It's still the same from when we were kids." Leona commented

"And you're still the same too. Close your mouth, you might really swallow a fly." Damon deadpanned

Leona rolled her eyes and chose to ignore Damon.
