All of the selected partic.i.p.ants are there standing in front of Lucas, Doll, and Winter. They readied themselves for battle.But, before anyone and anybody can commence for a blowing attack, The Ender came across the center of each party, stopping them immediately.
Raising her hand, she said, "I will taint all of you!" pertaining to Lucas, Doll and Winter.
With a blink of an eye, Lucas, Doll and Winter felt the pulling force on them. It felt like a vacc.u.m pull, a strong gravitational energy.
"What"s happening?!" Lucas asked.
"I feel that my power was being drained!" Winter said.
The Ender smirked, while the three were in searing pain. "You"ll understand once you end up tainted as well!" she shouted.
Lucas tried his best to defy the pull of The Ender that seemed sipping their magics. The same was to go with Doll and Winter.
"BODY ANOMALY REVERSAL MAGIC, RAISE!!"
Ghaile was that one who shouted, voiding the tainting process at Lucas, Doll and Winter.
Lucas stood fine, as well as Doll and Winter.
"I am here, too.." Moon was revealed there as well "...DEVIL"S WAAALLL!!"
That spell created a huge barrier that separated Lucas and his group to The Ender"s group, resulting in two rooms at a glance.
"With that thick wall," Moon smiled, standing in front of the three. "I am very confident that it won"t be—"
"Eyepatch!" The Ender ordered.
"Yes." Eyepatch replied, walking towards the wall.
Suddenly, the group was send drifting into the hall"s boulders through the door, along with the remnants of the Devil"s Wall —Eyepatch punched it with his left fist, despite him being right-handed, completely destroying it.
"No way!" Ghaile gasped.
"Let"s retreat!" Doll suggested.
Lucas, Moon and Winter commenced the escapade, that Doll and Ghaile followed.
"Catch them!" Eyepatch ordered, but quickly stopped by The Ender.
"Let them escape.." The Ender smiled with contempt. "They will on their own.."
"I"ll return to the original plan that has been slightly changed." she continued. "We"ll turn the Ground tainted. With all of our power!"

"So everyone"s magic has been removed by that loud noise?!" Lucas gasped, asking the girl while sitting on a stone bench in the middle of the city.
Doll, Moon and Ghaile surrounded the girl, as Winter and Lucas was just sitting unabashedly.
"The Ender cannot live without a second persona alongside her." the girl revealed. "And that second persona was Princ.i.p.al Lyns."
The group was left shocked, but did not bother to interrupt the girl.
"As you can remember, before the selection commenced, Princ.i.p.al Lyns broke the first orb." she elaborated. "It was a ruse one. The Ender cannot destroy the orbs."
"It was a simulation, a test on how the orb will behave when destroyed."
"So, you mean.." Doll spoke. "..that the five orbs are still completed?"
"Yes. And because of Princ.i.p.al Lyns, it made possible."
"So I was right." Winter seemed to have a thought in herself. "The Princ.i.p.al Lyns who talked about defeating even friends or foes.. wasn"t really her!"
"So, it was the time Princ.i.p.al Lyns was taken by The Ender as her second persona?" Moon asked.
"That seemed as it was." Lucas replied.
"Everyone"s lives are given because of The Ender"s Second Persona —Princ.i.p.al Lyns." the girl revealed. "Just the one word of DIE, and everyone tainted by her.."
"No way.." Ghaile despaired.

The Ender and the rest reside at the Underground part of the Hall. There lies the first orb —the legitimate Center Orb.
Everyone placed their hands before the orb that was supported by vines and roots.

As per The Ender"s order, all of them struck the orb with their powers, ultimately crushing it to pieces!
Tremors began just like what happened on the Press Conference this morning. The Ender smiled as she watched the remnants of the orb fell into the rooty floor.
"Upper Left, Upper Right.. Lower Left and Lower Right.." The Ender uttered. "If you destroy all of these remaining 4 orbs.."
Lucas and the others felt the tremors as well. The girl looked strange.
"..This selection will be finished." she said strangely. It was as if she was possessed. Or controlled, if maybe.
The Ender was also saying the exact same words, with the same voice and facial expression. She smirked, and said, "My power cannot destroy these orbs.."
Lucas asked what the girl is behaving. But she said another strange sentence..
"Now go, Partic.i.p.ants!"
The girl snapped back as if she was being freed from her possessor.
"Ah! Those were the words of The Ender!" the girl revealed in a gasp. "The other persona shared that with us."
"They are planning to destroy all the orbs!" Ghaile shouted.
"We should protect them!" Winter ordered. "This is what Princ.i.p.al Lyns was talking to: choosing between protecting and destroying the orbs."
"Look, everyone!" Doll abruptly shouted. "Isn"t it a good opportunity? Ghaile can heal them and their taints will be voided!"
"Enchantments wouldn"t be possible with controlled people." Ghaile replied. "They should be pa.s.sed out, because it take some time."
"Pa.s.sed out, you said?" asked Lucas. "Then let"s defeat them all!"
Winter placed her hands under her chin. "In that case, we might be able to do something... but, no.."
"Eyepatch and Pea are there." Moon added up. "Light and Sting are also going to be a pain..."
"That doesn"t matter!" Lucas was full of determination. "I will defeat all of them! It doesn"t matter if they are controlled!"
Doll felt a little nervous with Lucas, who is so determined —jumping in excitement.
He blazed his fire on his hand, and said, "I am all Fired Up!!"
