The legendary warrior

"Yes, I'm Edie, but I'm also Claire. To make this simpler for you, technically, Claire is my real body. I bet you only recognized me upon seeing my beast form and the Gale Fire, didn't you?"

Claire clarified.

"I knew it. So, that means that you two are the same person. Then that means... you are my old friend. But you wouldn't admit that you are Edie if I didn't ask you, right? Am I really your friend? How can you keep me in the dark all this time?"

Ricky said mockingly.

But of course, he was more curious about Edie's changes at that moment.

"Come on. You really got mad with that?" Claire responded.

"No, of course, I wasn't really mad about that. But there is something I want to know for sure. Are you a woman or a man? Most of all, how did you trick my Golden Spirit Eyes?" Ricky asked inquisitively.

"Whatever you want me to be. Do you want me to be a man or a woman?" Claire asked with a slight giggle. At that moment, her voice contained a hint of expectation as she was eager to know Ricky's reply.

"Ha-ha! But of course, I would prefer it if you keep your girl identity. I always like women more than I like male friends," Ricky replied teasingly

"You are such a playboy!" Claire commented playfully.

Upon hearing this, Ricky could not help but burst into loud laughter.

At that moment, he felt immense happiness that he was able to meet his old friend again.

Soon after, Claire began to divulge every single thing to him. She filled him in on the details of why she turned into a woman.

She was previously known as Edie and her father established the Wind-Mountain Alliance. On the other hand, her mother was a daughter of a Dominant Top Elder of the Mu Clan. Therefore, growing up, she enjoyed living a good and respected life in both the Wind-Mountain Alliance and the Mu Clan.

However, she was born a hundred years ago.

The Magic Ice had formed tens of millions of years ago, and this was where Claire had been sealed for about a hundred years.

During the time when Claire was born, a Polar Fish was also brought to life inside her body, giving its powers to her.
