While Eugene set up a date to have the talk with her brothers, Seraphine was busy researching on Xylait. Since Kayden barged in on her own privacy, she thought it would be only fair of her to do the same.
That’s why, she stepped into Kayden’s office and began to go through all the documents present there. She was not even the slightest amount of apologetic for doing so. His office was filled with information on this matter, and Seraphine got learn of more of details, leading her to understand how frightening can the puppets even be.
Not only these puppets have abilities, they are able to monitor people, acting as spies, and send back that information to their master. Because of how these puppets mingled well with the human, all of this would go unsuspecting.
However, if one had a strong willpower, they would be able to resist the control, and only a high level mage would be able to be master. Moreover, these mages need to have strong mentality or els
Seraphine held the trunk of tree and tried to regain her breathing. That name Aeryes— she heard it before. It was that time when she saw that magical beast during auction. Seraphine couldn’t comprehend what connection it would have with her possibly.Just what was the gap she wasn’t able to sort out? Maybe she was really close to the answer. The truth was at the tip of her tongue, but she wasn’t able to exactly figure it out. Only a questions of her needed to be answered before she added everything up, making a sense out of the conclusion she reached.Her knees gave out, and exhausted from running around, she breathed heavily, leaning against the tree trunk. Staring at the surroundings, she could see that she was at the unfamiliar, deserted part of the town. Back then, she didn’t pay much attention to where her feet led her in midst of panic.Even her sword was left behind. Looking around, she wasn’t exactly able to recognize
When Clayton returned to his mansion at the dead of the night, he was met with the sight of his sister sitting on the couch, eating pastries. On her hand was a book which she attentively went through, and packaging were strewn across the ground.Knowing that Seraphine wasn’t going to be cleaning those up, he let out a sigh and made his way over to her. Hearing his footsteps distracted Seraphine, and she raised her head to face her brother. A smile was there on her face.“You return too late. Did you eat?” she questioned.He gave no response to that and asked, “How did you get in?”“Ah, that Noah helped me,” Seraphine voiced out, “I found him on the road. I bet you haven’t eaten yet. Do you want to try these pastries? These are truly good.”He grimaced at the sight of sweetened snacks and shook his head prior to voicing out, “I believe I would be fine without them.”This
Seraphine wasn’t a saint or a forgiving person by any means. She didn’t want to hold a grudge against Alexandar. Maybe subconsciously, she understood all of this wasn’t his fault although she couldn’t remember anything about it.Moreover, hating someone equates to one wasting their emotions and thoughts over them, and Seraphine did not want to dedicate those to Alexandar. It seemed he had been suffering and repenting on his own without having her to do anything.“Even in the previous life, I am not the one you loved; it’s Kayden whom you held fondness towards you even though that man abducted you. Both of you are really fated to be together. I can never take his place in your heart, can I?”This made Seraphine eyes widen in disbelief. Although it was hard for her to believe she had feelings for Alexandar in a romantic sense, she thought she shared some kind of fondness towards him or else why would she choose to get marr
Seraphine was in a pale green dress. Sitting on the bed, she read through the book in her hand. There was no interest in those dull orbs of hers. It was as if she was reading the book for simply passing time.Her features were sickly, and her eyes were swollen. It appeared that she was completely out of life and tired. Although her appearance on the outside was fairly calm, nervousness was gnawing at her insides. The anxiety made it hard for her to breathe, and for instances, she wanted to stop breathing. She was exhausted living.It was tough for her to carry on, and every day, her will to carry on was only diminishing. What’s the use of leading such a life? There was no advantage that came with it. Ending it was definitely the better option.Just as Seraphine was engrossed in her melancholic thoughts, she heard the door open. This caused her to release a sigh, and she softly voiced out, “I have already said that I don’t need tea. Just how man
If truth was to be told, Sharon didn’t care about the past life she has only heard from Seraphine’s mouth. Not remembering anything of it, she couldn’t treat it as her reality, as if that Sharon was a part of her. She didn’t care about what happened between that Sharon and that Seraphine. Situation causes people to change a lot, and the Seraphine now was the one she adored.Looking at the trembling girl, there was nothing she wished more than wanting to have her spirits recovered, and seeing the past life she was starting to remember, Sharon had a feeling matters would take turn for the worse. As much as she and the rest wanted to be of help to Seraphine, they were barely able to do anything.“Seraphine, there might have reasons behind you being that way. You know, you were totally different from how you are now. There is a story that could have caused you to act that way. Nothing is your fault; the Seraphine I know isn’t a bad perso
Seraphine needed to get back to being her cheerful self and knew that her being this way only negatively affected the others around her. Having repeated that to her countless times, Seraphine believed it at this point, but getting her to feel better was harder said than done.In this life of hers, she might have not done anything wrong, and maybe what happened in her past life wasn’t even her intent then. But that didn’t change the situation is a result of her actions, and if not because of her actions, it is because she exists.She understood well how she was victim to Alexandar and Aeryes. Even so, it was because she was their target this happened. Just what was so special about her. The only other person she despised more than herself was Alexandar. Of course, Aeryes was there too, but Seraphine didn’t know if he could be categorized as a human.A long time had passed since the dream she had, and by now, her heavy emotions had significantly
Finding Elliot was easier said than done. It was as if he disappeared into thin air, and no matter how much Seraphine searched around, she wasn’t able to catch information about him. This was truly frustrating to think of.Knowing that he would only show himself when he wanted to, Seraphine decided to leave searching him and concentrate on gaining her memories by herself. The other option was Alexandar, but at this point, she was too disgusted with him in order to face him.However, the obstacle that lied in this plan was herself and her inability to force herself to remember, knowing it would cause her a great deal of pain. She was way too resistant.As such, months had passed, and everything returned to being completely peaceful. But Seraphine knew countless puppets were present between them, and they were simply unaware of their existence. It was frightening to think about.Kayden had make a remarkable recovery, and as a year worth of time had pa
At that, he shook his head in response, indicating a negative answer.This made Seraphine frown. She wasn’t expecting him to let her on anything in the first place. Having a clear idea of his personality, unlike her, he had the habit of dealing with everything on his own whilst keeping her in the dark. She wasn’t fond of this side of his.Staring at him with utmost seriousness in her eyes, she threatened, “I swear that if you dare to go anything dangerous this time around, I will kill you off personally and then visit your grave with my lover. I am being honest.”This brought a smile to Kayden’s face while he extended forward and patted on the girl’s head, enraging her further. She glared at him, hoping that he wouldn’t be brushing this as a trivial matter.Although he wasn’t aware of all of it, when he had his eyes closed, he didn’t lose his consciousness throughout the entire time. Because of that, h
