章 10: Chapter 10 - The Obsedian Order
"Duchess Kassidy, you are now accepted as 'Orderian,'"
One of the shadow figures knelt before me, followed by twenty more shadows who knelt as well.
They informed me that I was finally officially accepted into the organization known as the «The Obsidian Order »
I had joined them when one of these shadowy figures approached me, and I had no choice but to accept. After all, they had saved my son's life on that fateful day.
Yes, it was the shadows who protected us then. In return, they had told me that I was a candidate for this organization.
Duchess Maria, a member of House Ronen, was also a candidate, though not officially inducted just like me.
To become a full-fledged member and have the authority to command these shadows at will, I needed the approval of a 'The Obsidian Order'
The requirement for being accepted as a 'Orderian ' was to have a talented younger generation who could serve as your heir and to whom you could pass on your 'Orderian's duty' after your demise.
In my case, I had found that heir in my son, Zephyr, whose latent abilities had been awakened.
And Also,with my son's display of power,now the Elders would have no objections if I offered 'Luinera,' the guardian spirit of House Liander to my son.
"Madam, Young Master Zephyr is leaving," a maid informed me. I turned my gaze outside the mansion to see him departing, assisted by some servants. My child had truly grown.
"Luinera, as the owner of this Duchy, I request that you protect my son."
With a graceful swish, a large, bird-like form of golden light emerged from my body and made its way into Zeph's. I watched my son with mixed emotions, whispering, "I hope you have a good life, my son."
"Shadows, eliminate all the spies in this mansion. I don't want to see any of them until tomorrow."
"We heed the 'Order's' command."
With another swish, the shadows set to their task.

Zeph's POV
Now that I had the treasury key, all that remained was to enter «The Sanctum»
The Sanctum had multiple floors, and the more keys you possessed, the higher you could ascend to obtain weapons of greater power.
In my case, the 'Zendal Bracelet' was on the lowest floor, which made it relatively easy to acquire.
"Let's depart. Help me with the carriage," I instructed the servants. With my task completed, I boarded the carriage.
As I settled in, I felt a golden light entering my body.From the first glance I identified this light, It was 'Luinera,' my mother's guardian spirit.
Due to this spirit Kassidy will arise in power, She got her control over Shadows in later volume as she adopted a orphan who awakened her ability to manifest Ice element and made possible for mother to gain control over the Shadows, As she become official member of 'The Obsedian Order' a secretive organization managed by seven divine beings.
Their purpose was to establish connections with talented individuals and find the most suitable vessel for their incarnation on Earth to combat evil.
These chosen individuals, often heroes, would gain great power and be bound by certain restrictions, such as never lying or never giving in to anger, ofcourse these things will happen in latter volume, Until then it's alright.
Now, she even given up her guardian spirit, I may be a valuable resource but not more than a Guardian spirit.
Despite her initial hostility, I couldn't help but think that she might not be as hateful as I'd believed.
I glanced at her through the carriage window, her back turned toward me.
"Kassi— Mother"
At this moment, I realised, I need to become habitual of referring her like one, even though she doesn't deserve it afterall.
