In the south of the Federation, Idan, hovering over another city and radiating light, shook his head with a smile.

He realized that by dispelling his avatar ability and returning control of his body to Ned, he would reveal the existence of this ability.

However, Ned's insistence forced him to compromise and give in to his partner.

Ned has always been very devoted to him and has done a lot. It was the least he could do for him.

"I hope he doesn't go too far," — Idan thought, knowing that if Ned gets carried away, he might lose his head.

So he decided to play it safe.

Taking out the {Whisper Talisman}, he texted Arabel, informing her that the meeting was over and he would provide details later. Moving on to the main point, he left Ned and Milena alone, surrounded by a pack of sharks.

--------------------

MHG: {Belle. It was Ned's wish, and I had to give in to it.}

MHG: {Is it just me, or is he starting to show interest in Milena?}

MHG: {Can you think of something to back them up?}

--------------------

"With that, Belle will definitely do something about it." Idan put away the talisman and focused on the process of evacuating the city, while thinking about the upcoming fight for the Seeds of Law.

But suddenly, he was distracted when he felt his First Constellation, located in the Soul Space, activate.

Puzzled, Idan penetrated his consciousness into his Soul Space and saw something that made him freeze in amazement.

His Second Star and Third Star were actively transferring a huge amount of energy to his First Star.

"Are Pulsar and the Baby Dragon sharing power with Ned?" thought Idan, and a slight regret arose in his heart that he could not be there and see the result of these actions.

"By the way, where are these two?"

"Ned?" – Milena asked with disbelief in her voice, looking at the young man in front of her.

One moment he was Idan, the husband of her sworn sister, but suddenly, after thanking her, he turned into Ned.

Milena saw a familiar face that looked like Idan and his wide smile.

"There's no doubt... it's..." she found herself confused, ignoring Rezkar's predatory gaze.

"Yes, it's me," Ned said with a smile. Then he looked at Rezkar and suggested:

"Let's talk later."

Milena, still a little confused, nodded in agreement and finally turned her attention to Rezkar.

Seeing the desire and lust in Rezkar's eyes, Milena felt disgusted, and this only intensified his grin.

The more sharply he looked at Milena, the more he wanted her for himself. If earlier he was motivated only by dragon lust, seeking to possess her perfect body and long legs, now even his bloodline wanted to tempt the fruit of the fusion of the elements of light and darkness.

"I have to get her at any cost," he thought, tearing himself away from Milena with difficulty and looking, as he thought, at Idan.

But instead of the usual calm and indifferent look, he saw a wide, slightly insane smile.

Rezkar frowned, and only then realized that something had changed in Idan's behavior. He exuded a completely different presence than before.

Not only he, but almost everyone in the audience noticed the sudden change in Idan.

While everyone was trying to comprehend what was happening, something happened that scared them even more.

Bam!

Tremendous pressure descended on the puzzled Rezkar, pressing his face to the concrete floor. The force was so great that numerous cracks appeared on the floor. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Everyone, including Rezkar himself, was caught off guard, not understanding where this power came from. Even if it wasn't aimed at them directly, everyone could feel the incredible density and power emanating from it.

The mischievous gleam in the eyes of Serafina and all the beings of Light who expected the opposite disappeared.

"Graaa!" the dragon roared angrily.

Rezkar was furious.

He had never expected to encounter something like this and was caught off guard.

It was a humiliation that he couldn't bear.

With fury in his eyes, he tried to resist the pressure, but he quickly realized that in his current state, he couldn't handle such power.

Before he knew it, something happened that made him even more furious.

Ned didn't stop there. He walked up to Rezkar and slammed his head into the floor. The blow was so powerful that Rezkar thought his head was about to burst.

Ned clicked his tongue in disappointment, realizing that he had not been able to turn the head of this hated dragon into a bloody mess with one blow.

At the moment when he was about to strike a second blow, several powerful Soul Forces fell on him at once, forcing him to retreat.

"That's enough!"

Serafina intervened before Ned could finish what he had started.

Two Guardians of Light suddenly appeared between Rezkar and Ned.

Milena quickly retreated behind Ned, overwhelmed with fear and admiration for his actions at the same time. Her heart was racing.

"Who are you?" asked Serafina, staring intently at Ned.

He just snorted in disappointment. The power that he had borrowed from Pulsar and Dragonet through the connection of the First Constellation began to fade.

Milena, hiding behind Ned, received an unread message notification in her {Whisper Talisman}.

After reading who it was from, and then the contents of the letter, she smiled, and her fear began to dissipate, giving way to confidence.

Looking at Ned's straight and confident back, Milena couldn't help but remember how he had complimented her on the beauty of her legs. This caused her to blush slightly.

Ned raised his head and looked straight into Serafina's eyes.

That look was more eloquent than any words, and Serafina realized that this was not King Idan standing in front of her, but a completely different being.

Ned met her gaze fearlessly, and the Energy of Madness shone in his eyes.

His red hair quickly changed its color to a pinkish purple, matching his eyes.

His very essence was transformed.

Ned has fully revealed his true identity.

"Who am I?" he asked with a big smile.

"I am my King's most loyal servant, known as Ned, the Duke of Madness."
