Before then finally answering to her screams for help directed solely towards him after the distress call was sent.

And appearing in the wreckage of the Incarnation Core, revealing that of a mana-based little girl on the floor silently crying all the while the mana instruments and lights flickered at unstable intervals.

Causing Colin to then reassuringly hush her before then pulling out a specialized relic he had crafted some years ago with Avery in case he had to disconnect and store 'his' child.

At least that's what Avery had suggested to him resulting in him carefully supplying the relic with a pure concentration of mana all the while reassuringly humming.

While simultaneously supplying mana to the incarnation core as well as to relieve her mana decay and to prevent her from reverting to a form where she couldn't speak.

The relic in itself was quite unique as in despite serving the same uses as the standard form, he knew very little else about it.

The standard would no doubt be that of The Emergency Incarnation Habitat Vessel which in itself was used to store, protect, and stabilize important incarnations that were considered vital assets or warranted such protection.

However, despite helping Avery craft such a relic, in itself served other uses while also serving the same. Some of which he knew very little of, the name was of course The Emergency Containment, Evolutionary Device.

It served to not only protect, stabilize, and store especially important incarnations, but actively ensured that they would never revert and instead be forced through that of a fusion of hibernation and an opportunity for evolution.

To what degree? No one knew! Avery was simply that mysterious.. annoyingly so in many instances?

It's only natural knowing her shenanigans, be it from a night with Klarine, drinking bloodline with Kassandra, tea with Elfinia, milk with The Ancestral Queen of The Bos.

To slapping a leviathan, and making a dying base human child into a celestial vampire perhaps for a laugh?

She was simply that.. Interesting to the point one simply wouldn't know what she had planned!

Meaning even Colin, someone who was considered a God of Magic, was clueless to the fact 'if' it would indeed work?

However, from his personal experience as her disciple, she was in fact serious for most instances meaning perhaps there wouldn't but any of her standard shenanigans in this case.

Resulting in after the relic had activated and his incarnation being contained, a black crystal screen had suddenly appeared causing Colin to then curiously pause.

[Please place samples of both your and another's blood into the two convenient glowing ports! And no Colin I will not provide any context! You may be my brother's only child but due to the special circumstances of your birth I had taken it upon myself to be your mommy!]

[And as your 'loving' mommy and 'master' I ask you to 'not' ask such bothersome things as questions! Just know it's a necessity for you to learn new magic!]

Colin curiously read from what was presumably Avery's message resulting in him curiously nodding and looking into his space ring and pulling out a vial of what was strangely enough Gora's blood she had 'gifted' him for some reason.

Mind you the reason in itself was lost upon him..

However now it seems it had its uses, resulting in him after pricking his finger and placing both samples into the glowing ports and curiously waiting until finally, two screens appeared.

One was his incarnation looking to him with disappointment as if on a live cast waiting for him to read the letter so she could explain it in her dream-like state..

[What an ambitious girl! It seems that 'spicy' little dragoness had finally won you over in the end. I knew she could do it!]

[Be sure to send me an invitation! Now it seems Gora isn't with you currently so I would suggest you listen to that precious incarnation of yours and visit that spicy little dragoness immediately after her explanation! There will be a surprise for you two!]

Colin curiously read before then looking to the second screen out of sheer curiosity.

"No! I'm not going to do this! Everything feels like a dream and my head hurts! Just leave that fragment of me here and visit that Gora already! And leave that experimental mana fusion reactor you've been working on!"

"Just unseal the core and toss it in there! I'll have those puppets fix it! I want my Sky Tower back! Now let's go already!"

She frustratingly yelled before then cutting off the connection to the screen leaving poor Colin to then curiously sigh.

Soon enough after unsealing the reactor and dumping out the destroyed bits he had soon placed the new one and supplied it with a jumpstart of mana while leaving the puppets to handle the rest.

And soon enough after informing Lucius no less, of what had transpired or to put it simply the handling of the incarnation's previous meltdown, he had soon opened a spatial gate and walked through.

And after so ceremoniously appearing outside of her throne room, causing him to then curiously reminisce , especially after so many years or perhaps was it decades? One simply couldn't tell in the glorious pursuit of magic!

The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.

Of course, he hadn't informed her due to the uniqueness of the situation.

While their original plan meeting to discuss marriage, children, and righteous magics were planned seven months in the future meaning not only had he come much earlier than anticipated but he had done so looking handsome as ever.

Despite appearances, Colin was comparable to Bradley, and perhaps even more so.

Not to mention he had apparently come after a battle meaning his hair was slightly messy while funnily enough his outfit, that of his many positions, was flawless!

Colin wore an ornate ancestral golden and blackened attire and boots that looked to be the hooded mage counterpart of a royal attire comparable to that of even Bradley's.

Be it the many blinding ancestral-grade Imperial insignias of High Scholar, High Lord, and Celestial Lord.

Accompanied by all their gorgeous related celestial patterns, that were also accompanied by gorgeous mind-boggling magewreaths and inscriptions disguised alongside the latter.

Only complimenting his now slightly messy well groomed platinum blonde hair, pristine white skin, and pale yellow eyes reminiscent of that of an Ancestral Royal.

As if he had been in and out of his Ancestral Form to the point it had eventually adapted as of late? Perhaps for convenience's sake.. maybe?

One simply couldn't tell! While his handsome noble features had abundantly been unsuppressed much like he had been so long ago? Perhaps because of fate or simply the timing of his visit?

Giving him an overwhelming mixture of a scholarly, royalty, dreamy, mysterious, and passionate charm.

Surprising no one.. probably because apparently there wasn't anyone around? Resulting in him remembering that the greatest deterrent was The Dragoness Queen inside typically named after something or action equally terrifying.

However, for Colin he felt none of it, to him he was simply curious to why someone hadn't placed someone to guard the door. Were they magical guards?! Perhaps not since that was extremely unlikely?

Causing Colin to then ultimately knock on the massive ominous doors.. to no avail.

Resulting in him ultimately and unceremoniously pushing open the massive doors before then being greeted by the sight of Gora speaking to several shadowy figures.

Causing Colin to then curiously smile since they seemed quite pleasant.. at least until one nine-eyed one had foolishly decided to 'dispose' of him.

Resulting in Colin simply snapping her neck within a moment's time and sealing her as well before her spirit could escape.

Causing him to then ultimately sigh.

"My apologies, my only wish was to converse peacefully however that was only secondary as of this moment"

"And as of this moment, I have very little patience, Blight Spirits can do very little to harm me, and despite my interest in such things I can disregard such interests at a moment's notice?"

"Now if you wish to interfere with my visit please do so, disposing of such spirits who care so very little for manners would no doubt ensure my time here isn't wasted?"

Colin coldly reminded before then returning to his curious indifference, surprising both of the remaining shadowy figures at least until Colin had figured he had several dozen spirit stones left before then simply sealing them to their surprise.

All the while curiously placing them into a small obsidian jewelry box and gift wrapping it.

And after doing so he had soon gifted it to Gora who was currently covered in a black draconian mist, soon enough the mist had dissipated revealing that of Queen Gora The Queen of The Blackreach in all her glory.

Gora looked to be around nineteen with a surprisingly short stature however she was always rather petite all the while still remaining quite mature, which was indeed a strange mixture.

Gora wore the blackest of obsidian dress and knee-high boots covered in the runic aspect scales of a Black Dragon of Destruction, its patterns intertwined with that of the darkest crimson ruby.

Accompanied by a matching priceless yet overwhelmingly ominous crown covered in priceless rubies and even carved glowing blood-red mana crystals taken from that of Sacred Crimson Dragons.

All of which radiated with that of their immense dragon menaces?

Only complimenting her snow white skin, long obsidian black hair, extremely delicate yet gorgeous features, dark crimson rubied eyes accompanied by the fact that those were the eyes of The Black Dragon of Destruction?

Albeit instead of black they were that of glowing crimson ruby while the runes themselves and her draconian Iris remained black.

Giving her an overwhelmingly beautiful, terrifying, and immense royal charm that could only ever be compared to that of her mother's, The First Empress of The Draconian Empire.

Causing Colin to then reminiscently smile having missed her lessons quite a bit? And perhaps more than he should have, surprising him to an extent having also felt his heart melt strangely enough? Perhaps he had a cold?

Did he remember to pack her ring? Why were his thoughts suddenly so muddled? Perhaps it was in fact a cold? How unfortunate! Causing him to then ultimately sigh fearing he may in fact have a cold.

Before then finally being cut off by Gora unsuppressing herself entirely and standing up from her throne.

Soon enough after taking all but two mere steps, she was now thrown within his arms hugging him in a full embrace in her fully unsuppressed state!

Mind you if it had been anyone else they would have suffocated merely by being outside of the throne room, let alone in it! Truly showcasing how resilient Colin truly was, causing him to then ultimately smile.

And after the long embrace, it appeared it was now Colin's turn. Resulting in him also repaying her own sigh of trust with one of his own resulting in him also unsurpressing himself as well, and freeing himself of his restraints.

While Lady Celestine had surprisingly explained what he had felt and what it all meant mentally in a way he would understand, resulting in him curiously coming to the realization after confirming such feelings.

All the while on Gora's end she was simply ecstatic and felt as if she was a little girl despite her appearance displaying otherwise. She was still Gora after all, however for this moment she felt true joy.

In truth she had fallen in love with Colin at first sight, he was her hero..

He had never hidden what he felt or his thoughts, there was never a fake smile on his face, let alone fear and when he spoke, he spoke as a peer, a close friend either seeking knowledge or giving it.

He was passionate, fun to tease, kind, and oblivious at times.

His eyes sparkled as if a child looking through the window of a bakery full of his favorite sweets simply by being introduced to new magic, inscriptions, magewreaths, concepts, ideas, and at times even art?

He never lied, or pretended to be anything else other than himself, he was someone who'd get stuck in anyone's head, he simply made people smile, it was as if he had become what he loved, and to her he was perfect.

Whenever she asked him for advice he had never forced his opinion and looked at everything before giving her what she truly needed, and when she watched him everything became tolerable, and food, art, and even magic had a brand new taste!

The fact alone that he had actually accepted her demands or rather requests disguised as such had given her immense happiness.

At most she had thought he'd respond with advice or use that to speak to her, but never in her wildest dreams had she believed he'd actually accept..

It seemed he may have seen through it all. And despite how it sounded it made her quite content, at least until he kneeled.

Confusing her quite a bit with an added frown having believed it may have been a fluke before then ultimately being cut off with a ring shutting her down then, there, and now.

While Colin curiously smiled.
