The palace was now guarded by a group of strong and veteran mages who came from the garden. Arthur went directly to the base floor.

And he found Amelia was already there, alongside Ron, Madly, Omar, Randy, and Amanda.

For the first glance he found the same Amanda he knew for long, and the same one he met just recently. From the surface he couldn't tell, and so he decided to be vigilant and maintain his dragon form.

'Be ready to deal with her inside your garden,' he inwardly muttered to Gege who just laughed viciously as she waited for this moment for a long time.

"Welcome back," he said while standing in the center of this big hall of the throne. "How are you now?"

"I'm good," she simply said before glancing at the nearby Amelia and others as she added, "but I'm not in a good mood after hearing what they said."

"Which is?" Arthur faked ignorance.

"Someone impersonated my identity," she said while glancing at him, "they said you knew this all along."

"Let's first talk about something else," Arthur didn't follow her steps as he added, "tell me how did you escape? Where were you confined?"

"I was locked in a dark cave all the time," she said before adding, "and recently they moved me here and I managed to escape during the transport."

Strange enough she gave the same explanation as the other Amanda and she noticed the weird glances of Arthur so she added, "They loosened the security over me and so I managed to escape. I believe they wanted me to escape."

"Do you know why?"

"I… frankly dunno," she shook her head before sighing, "the last thing I saw in the real world was the academy and the brutal assault on it. after being kidnapped I didn't see the sun except for now."

"Hmm…" Arthur glanced at her before thinking to ask her of memories they only shared but…

'Don't,' Gege suddenly stopped him, 'the golden dragon said before she could read mind.'

'Indeed she can,' the golden dragon confirmed, 'perhaps she retreated to gather more info from the real Amanda and then come here to fool you.'

'For… what purpose?' Arthur was still hesitant about believing either side.

'To delay you of course,' the golden dragon said, 'she wants to waste your time. Don't fall for her tricks.'

Arthur glanced deeply at Amanda who said:

"I can tell you things the two of us only know."

Her words made Arthur lean towards the point of view of his golden dragon. "No need for that," he calmly rejected, "I have something major to do now. If you don't mind I'll take you inside my garden world."

"What for?"

"For custody," he said, "after I finish what I'm doing we can have a nice chat."

"Tsk," she shook her head in disappointment, "from all the people I never thought you would doubt me."

"Sorry," he honestly apologized, "but there are two of you now, and I can't tell which one is the real Amanda I knew of."

"Sigh, that makes sense but… it still hurts," she helplessly sighed before waving her hand, "alright, take me in and do whatever you want inside."

She mistook his meaning and he didn't correct her. He simply let Gege bring forth a portal and she entered it. he closed his eyes to see her confined with pillars inside a similar impregnable prison like the one the egg was confined inside.

And she was now far away from the location of the events in his garden, just near to the confined Anna.

"You seem to love holding girls in custody," Anna laughed sarcastically when she saw his phantom and the nearby Amanda.

"Mind your own business," Arthur coldly said before turning to Amanda and added, "sorry this is for the best of all."

"I… understand," Amanda seemed bitter and dejected with his actions but she couldn't argue with him.

She heard slightly about what happened from the other one, and if she was him she wouldn't only be content with locking her up.

Arthur could only leave her behind and return to the real world. "How is she?" Amelia asked with much concern over her face.

"She is… not a danger for now," he simply said with a distressed expression over his face.

"It's really hard," Ron sighed, "we now can't even differentiate between a friend and a foe."

"This isn't her fault," Madly defended her.

"We can't jump to a conclusion that she is really her," Omar sighed, "even I thought the first one was real, and now I can't tell anymore."

"Alright you go back to do your business," Arthur said before turning around.

"Do you want our help?" Amelia asked, "you said you are doing something important."

"I have to deal with it alone," he said before vanishing from the place and returning to the city under construction once more.

"This is getting out of hand," he took a deep breath before turning his gaze towards the direction of that lightning clouded zone, "let's get it done."

He flew fast while letting his system and Gege continue looking for the fake Amanda. He was now puzzled, as this move of releasing Amanda was something he never saw coming.

As he reached the location of that lightning cloud in a few hours he didn't hear any good news from the two.

'You should focus only on the next fight,' the golden dragon warned, 'it's going to be intense.'

"I know," Arthur took a deep breath and tried to calm down his mind. "Let's do it."

He took out his sword and started activating his ultimate technique. After doing so he moved instantly towards the lightning storm, welcoming the descending lightning with his sword.

His strength slightly grew after his consecutive breaking through, but it was still far from making him relaxed.

He started fighting intensely from the beginning while his sword never stopped moving, welcoming all the lightning with equal brutality.
