Raising My Enemy's Disciple
Elena, a defiant and eccentric witch living in the Forbidden Forest, has witnessed the empire crumble under the reign of Kael, a once-promising disciple corrupted by darkness. Kael, once a bright-eyed orphan and a disciple of her very own enemy, was twisted into the empire's destroyer, abandoned and manipulated.
In the face of the silver sword of her sworn enemy held by Kael, she makes a gamble against time and fate. Using forbidden magic, she strikes a deal with the timekeeper and plunges back into the past, 10 years before impending destruction. Faced with a chance to rewrite her destiny, she targets Kael and intends to make his master pay for neglecting his disciple. This time, she won't just stand by as the world crumbles; she will be his unlikely guardian, shaping him into a beacon of light instead of a harbinger of doom.
Can Elena rewrite destiny? Or will the karma prove too strong for a witch to clash against the inevitable pull of fate?

He was baffled and confused, as he knew that the Count wouldn’t be back for the next two weeks.Thorne, who was behind Lucien, glared at the butler. Ever since before, he didn’t like this butler. Even after Lucien became the Count he could not sense any loyalty nor respect he had for their Captain, which really infuriated him.“It’s Count for you,” Thorne could not help but spite and correct him.Alfred cleared his throat, “ahem, I apologize Count. I was momentarily surprised.” he was now wiping the invisible sweat in his forehead.But Lucien didn’t bother to look at him but instead scan his eyes around, looking for someone. Yet all he could see was the maids and servants, he didn’t even bother to think where the knights were, that were supposed to be in here at this moment knowing there’s a commotion.“Where is Kael?” he asked, voic

Chapter: Chapter 13Chapter ThirteenThe Four Horsemen of the ApocalypseThe Curdo Empire didn’t just crumble because of Kael; one man could only do so much. What led to its downfall was famine, plague, and war.As Elena walked through the bustling village market, the colors and laughter around her felt somehow marred by a shadow. The vibrancy of life seemed to pulse alongside an undercurrent of fear and despair, a sinister tune playing just beneath the surface of everyday existence. It was the way the air felt charged, thick with the promise of change—not the blessed kind, but a foreboding shift that hinted at the arrival of something far more dire.The very pillars of the Curdo Empire were crumbling from an insidious rot that began with famine. Crops once bountiful had begun to wither; blight swept through the fields, and nature echoed the suffering of its people. In a village like this, it was obvious that the livelihoods were threatened, and with them came desperation—a desperation that fueled socie

You seemed lost in thought there for a moment,” the shopkeeper asked, her voice tinged with concern. She took a step closer, her brows furrowing slightly. She has been calling her for the third time before this traveler responded, she seems to be at a loss.Elena forced a smile, shaking her head to clear the memories that flooded her mind. “Yes, I’m fine. Just… reminiscing. It’s been a while since I stepped into a place like this.” She gestured around the shop filled with vibrant fabrics and cheerful buttons. “It’s quite lovely.”The shopkeeper relaxed, her smile returning. “Thank you! I try my best to keep it welcoming. So, what do you think? Is the tunic and trousers suitable for your boy?”Elena glanced back at the clothin

She sat quietly, as her gaze went to the child trying his best to continue to swing his sword.Alterna just side-eyed her and didn’t say anything, which made Elena laugh. “It’s been a while since I got to go outside, it won’t be bad to visit the village right?”“Mmm…” was all Alterna said, not really paying attention to Elena which made her chuckle. “Hey! Don’t blatantly show your favoritism! You don’t talk to me as much as you talk to that child.” her voice sounds accusing but there’s no weight on it.Which Alterna just returns a “yeah” on her. Elena stood up from her seat and picked up the basket. “I’ll be back later,

Chapter: Chapter 10Chapter TenBlood, sweat and tears are the foundation of perfection.As the morning sun stretched across the sky, casting a golden hue over the D’Aurelle Estate, the atmosphere was rife with anticipation. The servants bustled about, performing last-minute tasks in preparation for the Count's arrival. Dust was swept away, polished silver gleamed, and fragrant flowers were artfully arranged to display the estate's hospitality. The air was thick with both excitement and anxiety.Some were delighted at Counts’ arrival and some were not.Kael, blissfully unaware of the turmoil brewing at the estate, took a comfortable seat at the cabin's worn wooden table, enjoying the calming presence of Alterna and Elena. The bitter taste of matcha tea was forgotten, replaced by the creamy sweetness of milk filling his cup. He savored his breakfast porridge, cautiously embracing its warmth, while glancing at Elena who seemed to be in deep thought. "Is the porridge good?" Elena asked, noticing Kael's cont

One for her picky master and of course for the fawn.She just came back from the nearby village to buy some ingredients, and when she entered the cabin she was greeted by a peculiar atmosphere. Her master who was eerily smiling at her, and the child who looked horrified. She was confused but it didn’t bother her that much.“I will prepare breakfast.” She announced as she went to the kitchen, not bothering to ask what they were talking about.“Will that be okay?” Kael asked softly as he made sure Alterna was out of sight. Elena, who was reading her book, didn't bother to raise her head but asked, “why won’t it be okay?”Kael looked down as he played with his finger, not sure if it’s proper to say it. “Go on, tell me what’s in your mind.” Elene encourages, flipping the page of her book.“She doesn’t seem to like me…” Ka

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-FourChapter Thirty-Four.“Tell me, what are your future plans together?” Amanesis pressed, leaning in with the tenacity of an investigator digging for answers.“I can’t exactly predict the future,” I replied playfully, “Perhaps something simple—cooking together, leisurely strolls through flower markets, and, of course, impromptu journeys to wine tastings.” “And maybe some historical tours too?” Randall injected with feigned seriousness, his lips quirked into a half-smile. “Just to keep her well-rounded.”“I’m sure it’ll only add to my charm!” I quipped back, feeding off his playful energy.“Honestly, the way you two interact, it warms my heart,” Amanesis exclaimed, her previous strict demeanor disappearing as her protective maternal instincts began to show through. “You both deserve happiness. And Randall, don’t you dare allow anyone else to distract you from what you have here.”Randall’s expression softened slightly, and he inclining his head slightly as a grateful acknowledgment.As l

The sun stood high in the sky, casting a shimmering glow across the expansive estate, filling the mansion with an air of quiet elegance.“Are you ready for the culinary emporium the maids are about to unleash?” Randall mused as I led the way back inside. The sound of commotion grew louder as we neared the kitchen—the cheerful chatter of servants echoing through the halls, punctuated by the clatter of pots and pans.“Let’s hope they’ve stocked up on enough comfort food to win over your mother,” I replied, biting back laughter. “And I still need to figure out what to do with my hair. Got anything inspiring on you?”“Can’t help you with that,” he said with a feigned look of innocence before a more genuine smile crept in. “But you’ll look wonderful in anything.

I felt a sense of tranquility wash over me as I took in the view. But my peace was abruptly shattered by the sound of Randall’s phone ringing, followed by him snapping it up with an incredulous expression on his face.Bringing the cup of coffee to my lips, I looked at Randall waiting for him to pick up the phone.“Bencio?” Randall’s voice was laced with calmness and a hint of confusion.I leaned back in my chair, my curiosity piqued as I caught snippets of the conversation floating towards me through the warm, evening air. “Please don’t kill me,” Bencio’s voice echoed, making it hard for me to suppress a laugh. I stifled the chuckle, maintaining my composure as I watched Randall's expression turn alarmingly serious. “What do you mean my mother is coming over?” There was

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-OneChapter Thirty-One.The sun shone gloriously over the sprawling garden of a mansion that had seen better days; its once-vibrant flowers were wilting slightly under the unrelenting afternoon heat. Yet, at least one thing still radiated with energy and color: Amanesis. She buzzed around the estate with the enthusiasm of a hummingbird, her vibrant dress swishing as she made her way to the office where Bencio was stationed.“Bencio, darling!” she called out with the flair of a theatrical heroine, throwing open the door without knocking. The assistant looked up, startled, as if summoned from some far, distant realm of paperwork and duty. “You will never believe the tragedy that has befallen me!”“Uh, good afternoon, Madam,” Bencio began, sliding his glasses up his nose as he attempted to shift his thoughts from spreadsheets to the whirlwind of drama that was Amanesis. “What seems to be the problem?”“Sit down, dear!

Chapter: Chapter ThirtyChapter Thirty.As our lips met, time seemed to come to a standstill, the world around us fading softly into a blur. The initial shock that coursed through my body melted away, replaced by a warm, comforting sensation enveloping us both like a soft blanket draped in tenderness. It wasn’t merely a kiss; it was a silent acknowledgment of the journey we were embarking on together, a beautiful testament to the intertwining of our lives in the most profound of ways.When we finally pulled away, breathless and a little awestruck, I saw a flicker of mischief dancing in Randall's deep blue eyes. "Did that meet your expectations?" he teased, his voice low and warm, sending delightful shivers racing down my spine.I couldn't help but chuckle, a delightful concoction of nerves and joy bubbling up inside me.

Beneath us, Amadeus unfolded like a vibrant tapestry. Lush green parks dotted with vibrant flower beds gave way to cobbled streets lined with quaint buildings in pastel hues. The majestic Amadeus River, a serpent of silver, snaked through the heart of the city, its surface reflecting the dying light of the day.I'd been to Amadeus before, but those visits were a blur of neon lights, throbbing nightclubs, and the relentless energy of a city that never seemed to sleep. This was a completely different Amadeus – bathed in the golden glow of the setting sun, peaceful and serene. A city that held its breath, waiting for the cloak of night to fall.It didn't take long for the helicopter to descend on a neatly manicured helipad nestled amidst a sprawling estate. The manicured lawns were a vibrant emerald green, dotted with vibrant flowerbeds that burst with color –

Which is very stupid if I may say.The key thing about mana control is not about grasping them, but digesting them! It's nothing about tapping powers, but being one with our attribute!

It was very different from the busy Capital, but the people and establishment almost looked the same.I saw a mother feeding her son a meal. It reminds me of my mother, my mom from earth.She loved being able to cook and bake meals for her loved ones - thrived on taking care of the children. It was our nature to only be able to produce one child and even that was difficult for them, so Mama and Papa felt very lucky when their little child came along. Then when mother and father's work asked them to transfer in the city, Grandma who of course disagreed immediately. It may be the nature of our family to only have one child, that maybe the reason why my grandma was so overprotective of me and my mother, to be a mother and she'd always wanted a large family."The atmosphere feels mixed up."That was what came out of my mouth based on what I saw out through the window.

The whole place was so refreshing and warm, full of life. The figure was sitting close to a pond, its back facing her. Marina took one single step, trying to see or observe who it is. The said figure looks like a woman, her chestnut hair was wavy, and she has a flower crown on her head. The woman turned her head in her direction and offer a warm smile. ‘Mother’ That was the first thing that appeared on Marina’s mind. The woman in front of her stirred something inside her, a fuzzy and warm feeling like a mother looking fondly at her child. She felt calm even though she’s facing a stranger. ‘A goddess’ The second thing she thought. The woman’s beauty was incomprehensible, making words lose its meaning. “Who are you?” Marina asked, eyes abnormally calm, and her heart feels more alive. The woman smiled at her
