As soon as they left Petra's office room, she kept seeing Stephen with an expression that was hard to describe. Every now and then, the man's brow furrowed, as if the man was thinking about something serious. Every now and then, the man was silent and mumbled in a half-whispered voice, as if the man was doing it on purpose so that she could not catch the slightest bit of what the man was saying.

She could have interrupted Stephen's current thought easily by inviting him to speak, instead of letting the silence fall over the two of them as they walked down the halls of the theatre that reminded her of the quaint yet elegant atmosphere of a nineteenth century theatre.

Be that as it may, she was a little reluctant to do so. Her own mind was still fixated on what Petra had just said when they were still in the man's study, as he talked about the latest news about William Schneider's extremist group with a myriad of unrealistic dreams (she gave him that nickname for the reason that was th

    Stephen was just about to put her down when they arrived at the seat on the right wing of the theatre. That too with careful movements, as if her presence in the man's eyes was a ceramic flower vase that had to be carefully guarded. Or like a mother who puts her newborn baby into this world with great care, worried that if she treats the baby too harshly, the baby would die.Hmm. It seemed that the second parable is far more illustrative of what the man did to her than the first.Be that as it may, strangely, she could not find herself as angry as she usually was whenever Stephen tried to pamper her. Instead, she found herself fixated on Stephen who was currently focusing all her attention on the opera on stage, completely unperturbed by her gaze.Maybe. Or maybe, the man noticed it but decided to ignore it. It could be like that.Not wanting to make Stephen notice his gaze sooner or later, he finally turned his attention towards the stage, following the

    Stephen had already disappeared from his spot after asking him to wait in the chair he was in, leaving him no other choice but to stay where he was when panicked screams started coming from all over. The staff from the theatre seemed to have prepared for the worst that could happen by wearing a set of protective clothing that reminded him of the personal protective equipment clothes worn by medics during the pandemic that took place several years ago, only the colour and thickness were different from the cloth itself. While the personal protective equipment worn by the health workers is predominantly white, the protective clothing worn by the theatre staff who is now trying to block the movement of the intruders is predominantly black. The coordination of the movement of the staff (who appeared to be the guard staff--judging by their agility in responding to situations beyond their control took place very calmly) reminded him of a special police unit that is usually deployed

    Stephen was not with her.Meanwhile, the intruder in front of her, taking the form of a man in his mid-forties, knelt respectfully in front of her, waiting patiently for her answer after conveying the purpose of his arrival at Stephen's theatre. While she could feel her whole body feeling paralyzed and weak, she did not know what to do anymore.Deep in her heart, she hated her existence, which had only been able to bring nothing but trouble to the people around her. At a time like this, she should be able to refuse the intruder's request and beat the man like Isabella's teachings until the intruder's body could not move anymore forever. This shouldn't be a difficult task, considering that what Isabella had been teaching her for the past few years had act

    Veronica kept her eyes closed with her hands gripping Karl's clothes. She did not know how long she had to close her eyes. But clearly, she had her eyes closed until now and did not have the courage to open them for two valid reasons.First, it was since Karl--her boyfriend, asked her to do it and he could give her the security she needed by doing whatever Karl said.Second, for the reason that she was too scared to face the fact that her body was floating with Karl on high. He even just realized that she had a fear of heights--acrophobia. A fear that might be normal for other people if that person experiences the same thing as her.An exception may be for people who enjoy an activity that will get their adrenaline pumping. That was ... well, another story.That is, it was not normal for someone to find themselves who normally always walked with their feet on the ground, suddenly soar and fly with wings this high. Especially if it is a person who experien

    Ever since Bianca came back from her late mother's room, she had been dumbfounded. He wandered aimlessly until she accidentally bumped into the servants working in the Zhang family residence, causing the servants to worry about her condition, to which she ignored them.She did not pay attention to any of them. As her mind was still on Erick's words before letting her out of her late mother's room and walking aimlessly like she was doing now. It felt like everything around her–including time–seemed to be moving very slowly. It felt like everything she had been going through was just part of a nightmare she wished she had never had. About her mother's death, her memories, and also those of her older stepbrother which her mother erased and manipulated to prevent her and her older stepbrother from knowing the truth.All the memories that had been locked away for fifteen years by her late mother were rushing through her mind, moving quickly just like a waterfall, making it even more difficu

    Theo initially just walked down the corridor of his boyfriend's extended family residence to relieve his fatigue because he had been in his room almost all day. Regulating his chaotic thoughts after hearing Erick's unexpected confession made him rethink all the facts he had thought to be true. He was furious. Not to his boyfriend who for ten years kept Mama Indri's secret from him. But he was furious, hating himself at the fact that all this time, he had spent his time hating the wrong people. He, without wanting it, was spending all of his time hating the wrong people who loved him so much until the person chose to sacrifice herself to be hated by him. All of his memories locked away due to his late stepmother's manipulative abilities popped into his head, making her not know how to respond. Now that everything had happened, what could he do but regret everything he had done to his late stepmother? He felt that fate was so cruel. ["Can you be

    He walked up to his younger step-sister, who immediately wiped her tears as soon as she realised his presence and turned her face away from him. The gesture he knew was made by his younger step-sister as a way to prevent him from knowing that his younger step-sister had just cried. Ah, even though there is no need for you to hide it from me, Bianca, he mumbled to himself while sighing languidly at his younger stepsister's reaction. Since he knew Bianca when she was still a little baby girl until she grew up to become a woman with a princely personality like now, his younger stepsister always tried her best to look strong in front of others by not showing her true feelings in front of the people around her. Including him, who, just happened to be Bianca's own older step-brother. Although that did not mean he had not noticed the change in Bianca's feelings, that his eyes could not miss every single thing he had noticed from his younger stepsister's feelings. "Are you crying?" "No..."

    It took him a long time to wait for his younger stepsister to come to her senses. He refused Erick's offer to drink the glass which filled with blood for several times. Yet his boyfriend was still ignoring his refusal, and unfortunately, Erick continued to do so until he was getting tired of refuse the man's offer.As his boyfriend was doing right now.He snorted in annoyance and pushed away Erick's hand, who was trying to push his luck by forcing him to drink the blood again and again until the glass filled with blood almost fell from Erick's grip. Thankfully, Erick's reflexes were so good, that in the blink of an eye, Erick managed to catch the glass back without any trouble."Erick, can't you see that I am not in a mood to drink it?!" he snorted in annoyance, turning his body to face Erick, who looked down sluggishly when he saw his reaction. "Why do you keep forcing me to drink it--""I am doing all of these things for the reason that I do not want to lose you again, Theo! Could yo

    “Montessa! Is the time spell ready?”Bianca called out to Montessa as she ran up to Montessa. He played with the glocks still in his hand, then returned them to Montessa. “Thank you for wanting to lend me your weapon.”"Yes. Already!" On Montessa's right, a dimensional portal appears that is the same as Nora's, but has a lighter colour. Montessa's eyes turned to the soldiers who were now running like crazy after stuffing the glocks into their pockets. "What's wrong with them? What did you do to them?”"It's not the important thing you should be thinking about," Bianca patted Montessa on the shoulder. "Can we go in now? I hope your spell won't throw us into the wrong timeline.”“Hey, what you said hurts you know!” Montessa defended herself. “I always succeed in casting my spells when it comes to time magic. “And yes, it is safe. We're going back to the 21st century.”"Good," he turned his head back, looking at Erna's figure standing behind him.Erna's hand gripped his hand tightly, vis

    Can they say that the mission was a success or not? That question kept popping up in Bianca's mind again and again as they ran to avoid the pursuit of the royal guards. In front of her, Montessa ran along with Felicia Chen, whom they managed to release from prison. All she knew, for now, was that she couldn't let go of Erna's wrist, which was running behind her. “How much longer we should wait!?” she shouted at Montessa, who was in front of her. "What?! I didn't hear your question, Pedrosa!” Montessa called back to Bianca, then turned his gaze back to the front as he saw more and more royal troops chasing the two of them. “I'm trying to recover my magic energy! Buy some more time!” “Easy for you to say, old man!” Bianca pulled Erna into her arms when she saw one of the royal troops trying to cut Erna with his sword. She parried the sword using his leg kick and threw the sword so that it stuck into one of the trees around the forest path. “Montessa! Lend me some weapons! There are

    Karl hummed happily and fell in love with the new magic sword Alec had created for him. The sword that belonged to his grandfather, which he gave to Nora in exchange for Veronica's safety (he did not regret his decision at the time), he could indeed use without the slightest problem. But in all aspects, the sword was out of character for him.First, in terms of design. He was actually not a fan of swords that had lots of carvings on them. His taste was very different from his grandfather's sword, which has that element. In terms of the magical energy that can be absorbed by the magic sword inherited from his grandfather, there was not much the sword could absorb from his energy, because the sword inherited from his grandfather tended to use the emotions of its user.When his grandfather was still alive, his grandfather was the type of person who was easily provoked by anger. That disposition of his was also justified by his life principle of glorifying the dragon race. From the pas

    Until an hour ago, they were still at Alec's house, trying out the new magic weapon Alec created.But right now, he and Karl and Stephen are busy helping Alex and Nicholas to kill the monsters that come to Alec's house.The monster was like Alec's description a while ago while visiting Pedrosa's residence. He had never come face to face with a monster created by William Schneider, so he was very surprised to see the real shape of the monster.He slashed one of the heads of the monsters that were about to attack him with their canine teeth. Their blood spurted out, hitting his body, emitting a strange hiss.There was a feeling of pity in him as he looked at the corpse of the monster in front of him. Recalling what Karl had said about the origins of the monsters, he felt some sympathy. In the past, these monsters had a quiet life.If it weren't for William Schneider, they might still be enjoying their quiet lives right now...A feeling of hatred for William Schneider welled up inside Ve

    William tapped his fingers nervously on his desk. Currently he was in his office at the university where Veronica Darren studied, with an irritated and bored expression.He didn't care about the rows of work piled up on his desk. Or the list of files in his email when he turns on his computer as soon as he enters his study.Or the attention of the students who tried to approach him. Or also the fact that at work, there are so many bouquets of flowers, snacks, or gift boxes of various sizes filling the room.He didn't care about that.All he cared about was Veronica Darren's presence. But since two weeks ago, that woman has not been on campus at all, nor has she attended any of her classes. Even though the woman submitted her course work via e-mail about three days ago.Where has Veronica gone? What happened to Veronica not to show her nose on campus? Even though he had gone to great lengths to infiltrate the university as a lecturer so he could approach Veronica.Now, he felt like an

    Don't do anything flashy, huh?Both Erna and Bianca looked at Montessa with deep eyes. Because of Montessa's stupidity that didn't estimate the risks that would occur if she went straight to the prison, the royal guards immediately arrested the three of them and took them to a room in the prison building.There were no windows around where they were, so all they could do was guess how long they had been there. There were only flaming torches hanging on the walls to illuminate the place.Even more annoying, the room was so damp and smelly, that it was difficult for him to feel comfortable staying in this place for a long time. He even admired the fighting spirit of the people who used to languish in this prison.Across the prison they were in, there was an old woman with a shabby appearance who kept cursing in a language she didn't understand towards the prison guards who were passing through the corridors of the prison."I didn't expect that the plan I made would end like this," Monte

    Erna's eyes narrowed, looking intently at Bianca who was running excitedly along the path in the forest. Montessa suggested that they change into what people of the time they are currently in, so the man cast a spell to change their clothes.She was dressed in a duchess outfit that was so sparkling, dark blue in color and looked so beautiful that she couldn't take her eyes off of the dress she was wearing.But that wasn't what made it hard to focus on the mission this time. But because of Bianca. His girlfriend was wearing a 15th century gentleman's suit. Clothes that seemed to be created just for Bianca to wear, even though she knew that Montessa changed Bianca's clothes into men's clothes because she always forgot the fact that Bianca was a woman.Bianca didn't protest at all, of course. He knew that Bianca liked the androgynous appearance despite her always claiming to be a fully woman, so he shouldn't be surprised to see Bianca's current appearance.Yet, she found herself falling

    She regretted her decision.She meant, she really regretted it.Erna looked at the environment around her with uncertain feelings. She was no longer in the 21st century with the technology and practicality offered by that century. But they were now around five centuries ago when technology and the internet were not yet available and witch hunts were still a common practice."It looks like we've come to the right time."Right now, Montessa was proudly standing to her right, using his magic to brush away the dirt and grime from his clothes. The man did not even pay attention to the fact that thanks to his goddamn time dimension magic, she and Bianca fell flat on the ground until their clothes were all dirty.Montessa did not even tell them or give any signal that they were going to land in the middle of the forest. Montessa only asked them to jump into the time dimension magic as soon as the man finished casting the spell.Yesterday he decided to agree to Montessa's offer by becoming th

    Karl responded to Stephen's words with a low laugh. "Actually, there's something I don't understand." "Yes?" “Why did you make me a magic weapon? Moreover, from my knowledge, ordering magic weapons from the Berthold family is very expensive…” “In my opinion, the lives of living things are more expensive and valuable than the Berthold family's magic weapons,” Karl shoved his hands into his trouser pockets. “For me, you and Karen are the most important people in my life. I already consider you like my own family, and I know you love Karen too.” "I …" "Don't deny it, Steve. How long do you think I know you?" Karl looked up at the ceiling of the room. “Our current situation is so chaotic. War. The problem of racism in the Dragon clan. A showdown between vampire families. Somehow it feels like there are so many problems coming our way that I can't spare my spare time to go on a date with Karen. It sucks…” "I feel guilty too," Stephen said. “Last time I asked Nikki out, my brother cam
