Chapter 296: Surging Magic (Extra)

Sindra was born with boundless magical potential, and could do nothing but love to use this incredible energy of her own will.

As each day passed, her magical gifts became more effective and more devastating. Sindra rejects any notion of balance or restraint and only wants to maintain control of her energy, even if it means that those authorities who want to stop her will dethrone her.

During her youth in Ionia, Sindra's reckless use of magic frightened the village elders. They took her to a remote temple and left her in the care of an old mage.

To Sindra's delight, the old mage explained that the temple was a school where the old mage could guide her and allow her to develop her talents.

Although she had learned a lot during her time here, Sindra felt that her energy was no longer as strong as it had been when she was younger.

Her frustration develops, and she eventually confronts her mentor and asks for an explanation. He uncovers the truth: he suppresses Sindra's magic, hoping to help her learn control and restraint.

She complained of his betrayal as she further demanded from the old mage to dispel the spell that had stopped her in her tracks. The old mage stepped away and told her that if she couldn't control herself, he would nullify Sindra's magic entirely.

In a rage, Sindra summoned energy and rushed towards the old man against the wall. After the death of her mentor, Sindra felt the first surge of her unbridled potential in years.

As the youngest child in the ruling family, Kiana knew from an early age that she would never inherit the throne of N'Tar. Her parents ruled over Ishokun, a city-state hidden deep in the jungles of Ishtar.

They raise their offspring in order to raise heirs, so their approach to education follows the proud traditions of this closed country. Qiyana's nine older sisters are all higher in line of succession and also receive most of the attention. As a result, Kiana often longs to find her own meaningful place in the family.

Her time has come. On that day, the young Kiana began to learn the ancient elemental magic of Ishtar. Soon after the course began, she realized that she had an extraordinary talent.

Although Kiyana was only seven years old at the time, it took her only a few weeks to master the advanced technique, and several of her older sisters had not yet mastered it after years of study.

One by one, Kiana's sisters are all surpassed by her in elemental magic. And the more she progresses, the deeper the dissatisfaction in her heart.

The reason why her parents had wasted their time with her sisters who were inferior to her was that it was all thanks to the great magical rituals that Kiana would get into trouble with every time her sister was chosen to officiate and prove herself.

Soon, the eldest daughter of the Genesa family, the first in line to succeed, became a thorn in the side of Qiyana. Instead of choosing to defuse, Inesa was furious at her twelve-year-old sister's disrespect to her.

As they grew older, the back-and-forth became more and more intense, and over time it became the threat of force from Inesa, and the blatant challenge from Kiana:

The two should decide the strongest in ritual battles for all the Ishokonites to see, and for the right people to inherit their parents. Enesa accepted the challenge to teach her sister humility.

At the end of the match, Inesa completely lost the ability to walk, while Kiana was unharmed. She aspires to be the rightful heir, but Kiana's parents are furious at her actions.

Her parents did not acknowledge the reward she had won, and according to tradition, Kiana would always be the tenth in line to the throne of Yuentarta.

While the news was hard to swallow, Kiana soon discovered that the duel had made her elemental prowess known throughout the Egooken realm. Finally, she found what she had longed for: respect.

This respect quickly took her into addiction. Kiana felt a burning need for her virtuosity to be recognized.

In fact, she believes that all Ishoken people should be proud of her, using their powerful elemental magic to give the world its rightful order.

But the reality is quite the opposite, they have been hiding from the outside explorers and miners who are cultivating the dense forests on the border of Ezuken.

In front of her parents' hall, Kiana has a showdown with them: drive the miners away and restore the lost land. Kiyana's parents rejected the idea.

For contact with the "Gentiles" would bring hatred, war, and disease, destroying what the dynasty had guarded for centuries.

Kiana is furious, and she can't wait to prove her strength to the world, determined to prove her parents' opinion wrong.

Against her parents' wishes, Kiana raids the excavation site, killing almost all the miners, leaving only one alive.

Looking at the fear in the man's eyes, Kiana knew he was going to deliver the message, and he was going to tell everyone in Piltover how the Great Elemental had destroyed their mines.

Chiana, who returned to Esseookon, triumphantly confessed to the massacre, leaving her parents furious. They told her that the merchants of Piltover were sending a new batch of miners and soldiers to the jungle.

Kiana's parents could not continue to risk their disobedient daughter inviting more strangers, so they unfortunately imprisoned her as punishment.

And while Kiana was being detained, many elemental envoys in the court came forward to defend her due to her rare elemental talent in the jungle.

They persuaded her parents to strongly recommend that she join them in strengthening the city's defenses. Kiana was released on the condition that she renew her pledge of allegiance to her superiors and promise never to come into contact with any Gentiles again.

More and more admirers are supporting Kiana, and she finally realizes her place in the world. She has the power to transcend tradition, and she will do whatever it takes to climb the ladder of inheritance.

She is the greatest elemental in the world like no other. She is the destined ruler of Ishion, and she will also become the empress of all of Ishtar.

The Elemental Empress, Kiana, what is hers is hers, in her pocket, at any time, whether it's the throne, the kingdom, or the world. Kiana, the rightful ruler of Ishtar.

In the jungle city of Ishuken, Kiana plots her own ruthless path to the throne of Yuntalta. As the last heir to her parents, she has no previous elemental magic skills, and she is proud of everyone who stands in her way. The land obeyed every command of Kiana, and for that reason she considered herself to be the greatest element in the history of Syoken, she was supposed to rule not just a city-state, but an empire.
