"Good! Now that's the spirit."

Moon praised Cone Face and Blanken after coming to their senses.

"What's that sound?"

A loud sound bursts from the main room. Taishae breaks open the door to deliver the news.

"The new monster is ready at our command."

With a mischievous smile on his face, Moon excitedly dashes into the room. He could hardly wait. All his effort has paid off. Setting sight at it coming to life. Cone Face and Blanken followed up from behind.

"Who is this?" Cone Face asked.

"Yeah! Is it a new toy?" Blanken jumped.

"Hoo, yes! I present "Faucet-Face!" Our newest monster that will charge in the battlefield."

Pipes bolted around its body; it released steam and pressure every second. Taishae hands over the control module. Moon gave the first order of command for the monster to follow.

"Show me what you can do?"

The monster fires a blasting burst of hot water at a set of pillars, immediately decimating them on impact. It left the other two monsters cowering back.

"Well…That was something." Moon applauded. "Show me more!"

The monster starts jetting out more hoses from the back of its body, firing away at the next set of targets set across the room. Finally, exploding like fireworks, it locks onto a giant statue outside. The monster brought out its big guns. A hydro cannon fired with force, destroying the statue within seconds.

"A piece of work indeed. Baronia was foolish to leave such a monster behind." Taishae mentioned.

Looking at the monster childishly, it was their new toy.

"For a monster, you don't talk much, do you? "Not like it is common for a Baronia model to have a mind or voice." Moon wondered.

Faucet-Face briefly spoke up.

"I am at your command. Fully-fledged to full allegiance to Aggerona. To only serve and obey."

The monster gave out a salute.

"The programming works like a charm." Taishae nodded.

They continue to be amused with their new monster for the time being. At the ruins, Alistor's company continues searching the ruins for clues. Barely making any progress, they were at a standstill. Too lazy to go back and fetch Mira for possible deciphering, they decide to sit back and relax. They are not bothering to worry about Alistor and his whereabouts.

Meanwhile, cold air breezes within the Maiden's chamber. Alistor slowly approaches her. At that moment, a light shines on her medallion, catching him off guard. Unexpectedly blinding him, he loses balance on the icy flooring.

"Whoa!"

Alistor falls over her body, his lip-smacking straight into her lip by accident. Her eyes slowly start opening. An angel at the moment, the next second a nightmare. She smacks him away upon sight. She knocks him back hard on the floor.

"Who the hell are you?"

Her eyes fill with a burning passion of rage, and she jumps off her bed, trying to kill him. He was utterly in hell fighting for his life, trying to dodge all her attacks. Punching and kicking at him, he tries to reason with her.

"No, wait!"

She pulls out her weapon, forcing a battle. Two silver dragon blades lashed out at Alistor. He barely held his own as both were twice the size of his sword.

"Argh!"

She slams hard on the ice breaking the floors. Alistor was scared out of his mind as she continued on the attack. Doing nothing more, he could only defend himself as she was too fast for him. It was nearly hopeless to find the slightest bit of a gap. She pressures him back to the walls.

"Okay, here goes…." Alistor said.

He didn't hesitate any longer. Readying one of his attacks, his blade shined a blue aura counteracting hers.

"Huh?" She caught on quickly.

Alistor unleashed his attack, but she was closer than expected. Both their weapons clash, resulting in them both being disarmed. Weapons fly to the corner of the wall. She looked at him with a dirty smirk on her face.

"It's not over yet!"
