Fiona adjusted her visor, her face tense as she looked over the battlefield again.
And yet sothing still felt off.
"…Wait," she said suddenly, eyes narrowing.
"Hold on—does this an…"
Liora tilted her head slightly but didn't interrupt.
Fiona stepped forward, brows furrowing.
"Don't tell . We're inside Aurelius territory, aren't we?"
Liora nodded once.
Fiona's eyes widened.
"What the actual hell—why are we here?!"
"You brought to one of their rogue testing zones?!"
She threw her hands up.
"And you just casually let stream it?!"
"Mutated Chimawren, failed Sovereign freaks—are you insane?!"
Liora didn't flinch.
Her expression remained perfectly neutral.
Only the faintest smirk played on her lips.
"Because today," she said, "I'm hunting."
Fiona blinked. "Hunting what? Mutated beasts?"
Liora shook her head.
"Hunting Aurelius."
Fiona froze.
"What?"
Before she could ask again, movent echoed from the far side of the rubble.
Two figures erged from behind a collapsed support tower.
Both wore the black-and-gold segnted uniforms of Aurelius field enforcers.
One of them raised a suppression rod. "Halt!"
"You two—state your nas and authorization codes!" the other barked.
"You've breached an Aurelius-controlled domain."
"This is classified bio-research ground."
Fiona instinctively stepped back.
Her drones shifted defensively.
"Oh crap. They saw the whole thing, didn't they?"
Liora didn't respond. She stared at the n like they weren't even real.
One of the Aurelius guards squinted. "Wait... I know that face."
The second one frowned. "Damn it. She is one of the Luxoria. That's her."
Fiona blinked. "They recognized you—"
They barely finished the sentence before Liora moved.
Leon surged from light particles, condensing into a war-form blade.
She blurred forward in a step too fast to track.
The first Aurelius guard tried to raise his weapon.
Too slow.
Liora's blade cleaved through his torso, splitting armor like paper.
He didn't scream. He just dropped.
The second one reached for a comm.
He never made it.
Liora flicked her hand.
Leon's blade shifted mid-motion into a railgun cannon.
One blast. Clean through the man's chest.
He was launched ten ters back before crumpling against a broken wall.
Silence.
Fiona stood frozen, mouth open. "You just—"
"They were Aurelius," Liora said simply.

Fiona raised both hands toward her drones.
"Okay, uh—just to clarify for the viewers, I did not agree to this part."
Leon quickly transford back into her clothes again.
Fiona stepped beside her, trying to keep pace.
"You could've told this wasn't a hunt. This is a raid."
"You needed to see it."
"Why ?! I'm a strear, not an assassin!"
"You're the only one brave enough to tell the truth."
Fiona stopped walking.
Liora turned her head slightly.
Fiona stared.
"Wait. That's why you brought ?"
"Not just to witness these beasts. But to broadcast it."
Liora said nothing.
But the look in her eyes said everything.
Fiona's drones hovered silently. All still live.
Fiona sighed.
"Okay. So we just trespassed. Murdered two Aurelius enforcers."
"Exposed their mutant zoo. And you want to turn this into a stream segnt?"
Liora looked forward again.
"They killed thousands with their monsters. We just fild proof."
Fiona swallowed.
"...And if more co?"
Liora didn't hesitate. "I kill them too."
Fiona let out a long exhale and rubbed her forehead.
"Thank the system I stream on the Luxoria app."
"If I were still on Beastagram, I'd be banned already."
She glanced at her drones.
"But seriously—why the hell did you need to do this on cara?"
Liora's expression shifted.
"For a long ti, I couldn't say anything," she murmured.
Then she looked up—straight into one of Fiona's main drones.
She let it hover close to her face.
Her voice turned sharp.
"Aurelius," she said flatly.
"If you're watching this—good. I want you to hear ."
Fiona froze.
Liora didn't blink.
"I'm coming for you."
She took one step forward, boots crunching over shattered tal.
"You destroyed our ho. You turned our family into targets."
"You turned peace into blood. So Luxoria Castle was built on your grave."
Fiona stepped back, stunned. "Wait—what? Aurelius destroyed your house?"
Liora's gaze remained cold.
"In the past, we were just a strong family."
"Quiet. Private. We weren't trying to start wars."
Her voice dipped lower, but the fury behind it only grew.
"But we bought one beast."
"A Sovereign-tier they didn't want us to have. That's all it took."
"They sent soldiers. Assassins. Burned everything."
"Tried to erase us for stepping out of line."
Fiona's lips parted. She couldn't find words for a mont.
"So you're telling ... Luxoria Castle only exists because Aurelius tried to end you?"
Liora smirked faintly.
"Exactly. They broke into our ho. So we built a fortress."
She looked back at the drone.
"And if anyone's wondering, why did we build the best pet shop?"
"Why has it even beaten the Beast Castle? Bla Aurelius. They made us."

Fiona turned toward the cara again, voice softer now.
"You heard her. This wasn't just a battle stream."
She paused, then added:
"This was the beginning of sothing bigger."
