Juniper jumped down from the counter table. She suddenly saw Ace, who was standing near the door.

Juniper: Ace! Good timing. Come with me.

Ace obliged and followed Juniper to her room. When he came inside Julie and the others are there too.

Ace: You guys are all here?

Hansel: The master told us to come in here.

Max: She told us that there is something she will tell us.

Ace: Is it important?

Juniper: Of course it is important.

Julie: So, what is it master?

Juniper sat down in her chair.

Juniper: All of the people in this room. Will participate in the Mystic games.
Including me.

Everyone was surprised to hear that.

Juniper: The Mystic games consist of 3 different competitions. Running event, Intelligence event, and Combat event.

Ace: I kinda get the running and combat event, but what is the intelligent one?

Juniper: You'll see when we get there.
Max will be in the running event. Julie and the twins will be in the intelligent event. Ace, Ezra, and me will be participating in the combat event.

Ace feels like something big is going to happen.

Juniper: There is approximately 2 days till the registration time. Do your best on training.

Ace: What about you, Master?

Juniper lay down on the couch.

Juniper: I'll sleep.

Everyone(chibi): SERIOUSLY?!

Everyone left the room and head downstairs.

Julie: Well, it can't be helped, she is the master after all.

Ezra: We don't know what kind of power she has in stored.

Ace: Wait a minute, so you guys never seen the master's magic at all?

Ezra: Now that you mentioned it, ever since I joined here, I never saw her magic once.

Julie: Me too, but I heard rumors that she can destroy an entire continent if she wants to.

Max: Seriously?! That's pretty scary. Good thing she is on the good side.

Hansel: Found it!

Julie: What is it Hansel?

Ace: I asked him if the book he found contains any information about the Death Dragon: Fafnir. So, what does it say?

Hansel: According to the book, Fafnir was an artificial dragon made by the people. After it was made, it went berserk and destroyed half of the Yggdrasil's continent. It stores incredible amount of magical energy. They say the beast was taken down by the Hydragon magic users. That is all the information on this book.

Ace: Hydragon magic users?

Julie: Oh yeah, those guys.

Ace: You know them?

Julie: Well, technically they're descendents are in different guilds, plus they always are the ones who always the star of the Mystic games.

Ezra: It's only natural that they are, they're ancestors are the ones who saved their country after all.

Ace: It's amazing that that continent is a place for dragons.

Gretel: Of course.

Max: It's weird that the people there tried to make a dragon, and ended up destroying their country.

Ace stood up.

Ace: It's decided. Let's do our best at the Mystic games.

Everyone: Yeah!

Meanwhile...

Juniper was eavesdropping on their conversation the whole time.
