Darius walked to his small library, filled with history books and books about magic. He picked up an old book, but it was empty, no notes. He opened page 303 and cast a spell on the book with his magic wand. The book glowed and then showed notes on how to make a potion to destroy Zacrathis's magic.
"Those are the ingredients," Darius said.
1. Unicorn horn to be crushed and added to the potion
2. 20 mermaid fin scales
3. 3 Hynix wing feathers
4. 1000 strands of Mystique's hair.
5. Rivestar ears
6. A piece of Demon horn
7. Zacrathis horns
8. Piece of Dragon's wing
9. Driplemist wings
10. Nymlith hair
11. Werewolf fur
12. The crystal on the magical rabbit's forehead.
They all looked shocked, including Victor and Matthias, because they didn't expect the ingredients to come from the body parts of Immortal and mortal creatures.
"This is absolutely crazy." Damian said.
"It's impossible to do. Where can we find a dragon or demon and ask them to cut off their wing? He'd probably kill us on the spot. And the horns of Zacrathis?? How can we find them? Didn't we make that potion to defeat them? We could end up dying at their hands." Marcus said.
Darius is nodded. "I understand your concerns. But those are the ingredients for the potion we want."
"Is there another way to defeat them?" Ask Selena.
"There are many other ways, actually, but they're just more dangerous. One of them is entering the Zacrathis portal you told me about and fighting them."
Victor shook his head. "That was impossible."
"And the second, wait for them to come to Earth and then kill them." Darius said.
"It's the same thing. There's no difference." Amalie said.
"Third, make a potion; fourth, don't resist, just let the earth be destroyed. So, making potions is the most difficult thing of all." Darius said. "The spells about the Zacrathis in Solgathis Genevara's book are quite powerful, but they cannot destroy them. The most powerful is the mantra that can imprison the Zacrathis in the prison located in the Orthelis's crust. That's all. They can't really be wiped out." Darius said.
"They are really strong..." Eva sighs.
"Yes, they were born into darkness and the void. They were created to protect orthelis from dangers that could come from outside orthelis, such as meteors, etc. But their strength and thirst for power blinded them. There are many Milky Ways in this universe, and Orthelis is not the only planet with inhabitants. There are many planets in this galaxy that have inhabitants, but the distance between us is very far, hundreds of millions of light-years. And every earth has its guardians, like Zacrathis, many of whom truly guard and many of whom rebel and want to control, one of whom is Zacrathis, who wants to control Orthelis." Darius said.
"If not Zacrathis, who will protect the Orthelis from attacks from outer space?" Eva said.
Darius smiled. "We all did. Mortal or immortal creatures on Orthelis."
They all fell silent for a moment, then looked at each other in the first grade and nodded.
"Alright, we will try to find those materials." Damian said.
"The potion is meant to Destroy the Zacrathis' magic so they can take the Zacrathis to the prison located within the Orthelis's crust. Just Destroy their magic, not destroy them. Because it's impossible." Darius said.
"Alright then, you will and we will return to the academy." We will get back to you if we find the necessary ingredients." Matthias said.
Darius nodded and escorted them to the front yard of his house. Matthias used his power and teleported back near the bridge.

It's been several months since Selena entered this academy, and she feels her life has truly changed. From being a very silly and clueless girl, she's become a mission adventurer searching for those materials, which will begin during the summer holidays. They have already obtained one ingredient, which is Mystique's hair, taken from Alice's hair.
Flashback
Darius began making the potion in a very large barrel, starting to add the basic ingredients. Like Dracula's hair he got from Victor's hair, magic cat saliva he got from his cat, and many more.
"Mystique's hair? I'm going to cut my hair! However much we need!" Alice said.
"1000 strands of Mystique's hair." Darius said.
Alice nodded and took the scissors, then cut off a portion of her hair. Alice's hair suddenly shimmered, and the part she had cut off grew back. "Is this enough? I'll cut it again if it's not enough." She said.
Darius nodded. "This was more than enough, the total was 4557 strands."
Alice nodded. "Okay." Alice gave her hair to Darius.
Darius took it and put it in the large caldron.
Flashback off.
Matthias spoke to them with a serious tone, "The Hynix are one of the easiest. This academy has Hynix living in the basement who will appear and guard the surrounding area at night. This is our chance to take their wings." Matthias said.
Hynix is a creature with a body like a wolf, sharp claws, a tail like a dragon's tail, and large wings. Hynix are guardians who usually protect buildings; they come out at night and patrol around the buildings. They will enchant the entire building area so that even if they are sleeping in the morning, the building will still be safe.
Can we wait for them until they come off on their own, just like when they packed me, and then some other things, they'll come off, Marcus said.
Matthias encouraged me to keep my head up, saying they were very strong. It won't come off on its own unless we pull it off. Griffins are very aggressive and might be a little difficult to obtain, but they are the closest creatures to us right now.
"But how can we take Hynix's wings?" Ask Riley.
Selena has the Book of the Veiled Grimoire, see if there are any spells that can paralyze someone or anything related to that.
Selena nodded and opened the book. She looked at the table of contents and found a spell to paralyze winged creatures, including Hynix. The spell would paralyze the griffin for 1 minute. It was used to escape Hynix, but they could use it to make Hynix forget about them and then pluck out 3 of his feathers.
"That's what we're going to do tonight." Matthias said.
***
Selena bumped into Bryce as she was heading back to the dorm building with Amalie, Eva, and Riley. Bryce smiled and greeted her.
"Hey, where have you been?" Ask Bryce. He smiles at Selena.
"Uh, we just went for a walk." Selena said.
Bryce nodded. "Well.... umm, are you busy tonight? Do you want to go to the movies with me? You can bring your friends if they want."
They looked at each other with nervous glances.
Selena smiled. "I'm sorry but i can't, because i had to do my homework later tonight." Selena said with a nervous look. She wasn't good at lying.
Bryce looked confused when he saw the expressions on Selena and her friends' faces. Oh, is there a task? He nodded in understanding, even though he didn't fully trust Selena. "Alright then. Maybe next time." Bryce said.
"Yeah, i'm sorry. Maybe next time we can go to the cinema together with my friends. See you." Selena said and then walk toward the dormitory building, leaving Bryce behind.
Bryce watched Selena walk away. His confused and curious expression made him feel that Selena was lying about her homework, he could see it in Serena's gaze and the slightly nervous looks of her friends. He shrugs and walks away.

Matthias and Alice were in the car, and Darcy was driving. Matthaeus told Darcy what happened.
Matthias looked at Alice and held her hand. "You don't need to come tonight." Matthias said.
Alice looked surprised that she wasn't allowed to go. "Why?"
"You know, Hynix are very dangerous creatures. They were tasked with being guardians, and of course, they are very strong and aggressive. I don't want anything to happen to you if you come." Matthias said.
Alice shook her head. "No, I want to go with you, Matthias."
"Alice, please. It's dangerous." Matthias said.
Alice stubbornly shook her head, "No, i want to go with you too. As long as you're with me, i'll always be fine. As long as you're by my side."
Matthias's face softened and he kissed Alice's hand. "Alright, but you have to stay close to me."
Alice nodded. "I will always be always beside you, Matthias."
"You're really stubborn. Princess. But i love you." Matthias said.
