Alka, then composing herself, ran straight towards Bortz again this time trying to aim at his face, but he immediately blocked her attack with his long scythe.

"Double spear art style, Recopy!!" Alka created a spell as multiple versions of her tried to attack Bortz from all directions.

Alka tried another spell again, raising her spear high as a mass of energy formed around it as she yelled, "Star Cluster!!!!"

A great light of darkness shone down on Bortz releasing the huge mass of energy collected creating an enormous explosion. It destroyed half of the world Bortz created for their battle.

The world then reformed again, but this time it became bigger once the mist cleared she saw that Bortz blocked her attack with his finger.

"Perdria Rolias!!" Alka yelled again, but this time her body began to change. Alka grew fox ears and behind her ten huge fluffy black foxtails and her golden eyes glowed brighter.

"Interesting, then I might as well be a little serious now," Bortz said with a pleasing grin. "Grandez Xiala!!" he yelled as a chain of multiple burning crystal black swords appeared around Alka. Before she could make a move she was blasted by the flaming swords that created a huge explosion, which caused the destruction of Bortz's world due to the destructive power of the spell.

Alka laid there half-dead as she tried to stand again, she couldn't just die like this. Even though she was in her strongest form she was easily defeated. As a demon, nothing was easy for her since childhood.

Bortz stared at her awkwardly as she limped towards him still having a firm grip on her spear.

Bortz looked at her and smiled, "I guess, I win then." he said as he wasn't shocked by the outcome. In terms of strength it was obvious that Bortz had the upper hand than a lower realm goddess.

"Now you would be transported to the place where the new Gemaris has been born and you shall support her and train her. Your goal must make her the strongest of the Gemaris. I would implant all the details about the Gemaris and your job as a Jewel into your mind as you leave." He said, confusing her greatly.

Bortz appeared before Alka as he touched her head, Alka could slowly see herself losing consciousness, when a strange pop-up message appeared in front of her.

[ You have been selected by the System to support the new generation Gemaris ][ Transfer to Gemaris's location will begin in 4 ]

[3....]

[2...]

[1....]

....

Alka finally lost consciousness and fell asleep, she could hear Bortz whisper some words to her but she didn't hear them well.

༻—————— ˗ˋˊ˗ ——————༺

After some time Alka woke up in a dark void like the previous void she met Bortz, but this one felt different.

"Where am I?" She wondered as she got up.

[ The system shall begin memory transfer. ]

All of a sudden Alka felt immense pain in her head as she screamed, "Aaaaarrrggghhhhhhhhh!!!!"

Memories of the past Jewel Bortz flowed into Alka's mind showing all the personal details about the Black Gemaris the former Jewel served and what the Jewel knew about the Black Gemaris.

Alka also received various fighting techniques of the former Black Gemaris's Jewel which greatly increased her power. She also learnt that Jewel kept their masters in check in case they go mad, so when their Gemaris goes on a rage the Jewel's powers increase abundantly to be able to rival their Gemaris's power.

Alka started to scream more intensely when memories of the Gemaris war flowed into her mind.

'My head feels like it's splitting,' Alka groaned in pain.

In the memories it showed how the Black Gemaris's Jewel and Golden Gemaris's Jewel fought against each other, to end the conflict between the two Gemaris. Unfortunately, since they were both equally matched in strength, they both suffered severe injuries and eventually shattered without their masters caring that they both died for them. The nature of a Gemaris is truly cruel.

Both the Golden and the Black Gemaris fled away from the Gemaris war never to be seen again.

Once Alka had finished processing the information the pain in her head calmed down as she slowly opened her eyes. Both her pair of eyes revealed something strange and she walked towards the glass crystal that appeared from the void. Both her eyes have Jewel-shaped pupils, confirming that she was now a Jewel. However, there was one problem: instead of a Black pupil alone she had a black and purple pupil.

'How is it possible to have two different Jewel Pupils?'

___________

"Huh!" Alka gasped as she almost bit her tongue in shock. "Hey System, could you explain why I have two different colored Jewel eyes?" she asked to confirm if she wasn't imagining things. "I thought Jewel's pupil color is according to the Gemaris they serve," Alka recalled as she held her face.

[✧The System has no logical reason for Alka having two-colored Jewels.]

"I guess I can't do anything about it then," Alka sighed, and then shrugged.

"So then... what do I do now as a Jewel?"

[✧Since the Gemaris was just recently born, the system doesn't have any task for you to do.]

"I see..."

"I also want to know what is going to happen to my Empire as I've been brought here," she asked concerned.

[>✧....]

[✧Unfortunately, your Empire was destroyed.]

Alka froze at the news. Her face became dark, and her heart sank with horror and disbelief hearing the system.

"Please explain..." She inquired with a trembling voice.

The System then projected the scene when she was in her bathroom as the crystal maid was there and how she disappeared.

After that, a huge bright rainbow-colored light flashed and dived into the planet like a comet. Alka couldn't see the person clearly, but the person was floating in the skies with huge wings on their back and a row of huge white crystal swords. It looked like a man who was just covered in light.

He raised his hand and launched his swords at all the cities, nations, and kingdoms in the world.

All the races were in a panic as they did not know what was happening and tried to run from the catastrophe. Each of the person's swords always reformed once destroyed. When his swords crashed onto the ground, it caused an enormous explosion, like Bortz's skills, but this one was different. Once the explosion cleared out, everyone turned into lifeless, frozen gems and crystals.

Most of the nations ceased to exist in mere minutes, except for Alka's nation.

However, as he was about to head there, the twenty-three gods and goddesses of the world attacked the strange bright person with all their strength, especially Demon god Cardar. He was a tall man who wore an extremely dark black robe, with a black suit. With dark green eyes on his handsome face, and a head of beautiful long black hair.

"Stop this madness at once!" His voice boomed as everything around them began to shake. Even the other gods, too, were terrified. However, the bright figure showed no signs of being affected by his aura.

"Who are you, and what do you want?" Cardar asked nervously since he knew that the person they were dealing with wasn't a normal god.

The bright figure turned to look at them as he frowned. "You don't need to know my name, but I would like to ask you one question…Where's the Black Gemaris Jewel?"

"...Jewel?" One of the goddesses muttered in confusion.

"What Jewel??" They all asked themselves as they turned to look at Cardar.

"I know of the Jewel. You can't fool me," the bright figured man shouted as his face turned red with fury, much like his body that turned into different shades of red.

They all looked confused since they've never heard of a Gemaris Jewel. The only Jewels they knew of were ones they could find in the sea or mines.

"Let's discuss this. Who is this Jewel you're looking for? What do they look like?" Cardar asked calmly.

"Useless!", the bright-figured man growled as he realized none of them knew where the Black Jewel was and didn't even know who they were.

Before any of the other gods could prepare another attack, the bright-figured man summoned an incredible amount of pressure that took the breath out of the gods' lungs. Then, he spoke.

"Purify..."

As he uttered that word, the gods and goddesses around him turned into crystals.

He then used his levitating crystal sword to reduce each of them to nothingness, even though they were in a very vulnerable situation. All of them shattered like broken prices of glass and fell to the earth.

"Who was that?!" Alka asked hesitantly as her body began to shake. Deep inside, she was burning with rage at how that man killed Cardar, her friend.

[✧That is the enemy of the Gemaris race the Regals.]

[✧If you hadn't been transported here, you would have died, and the mission to revive the Gemaris race would have been a failure.]

"Ahh, I see," Alka sulked as she clenched her fist.
