Alessia's POV

I felt my throat dry so I drank water from a container made of animal skin. I'm not sweating because the wind is strong, but I can't deny the heat brought by the climate.

I feel like I want to go home because of the heat. I'm patient, but the Waldorf is too hot. I don't even see a tree here that you can rest on, it's just endless sand and you don't know where it ends.

"Sweetheart, wear my cape, you're burning," Elijah promised me. He must have noticed that my skin is a little red because of the heat of the sun.

I quickly shook my head. "It hurts the skin, but it's not fatal," I replied to him. But I'm more afraid that I might get skin cancer because of too much exposure to the sun. Too much exposure can cause heat stroke or worst, skin cancer.

We've been traveling for a few hours and it's going fast. The road is winding, everything is dry and the heat is sweltering. I looked to the left side and saw something there that caught my attention.

"What's that?" I immediately a

    Alessia's POVWe reach Callora Grande. But we are just at the beginning. We can't go inside because many poisonous creatures are lurking in Callora Grande. This place is not inhabited by immortals, but by ferocious monsters. The sentinels immediately set up a tent according to Elijah's order.It's dark and I can feel the cold on my skin. An icy wind creeps into every corner of this place. This is the difficult thing about a desert, how hot it is during the day, how cold it is every night. Back then, I thought it was hot at night because the desert is naturally hot, but I was wrong.I shivered from the cold and approached the campfire the sentinels had made. Elijah is currently looking for fuel to keep the fire going tonight.The environment needs to be bright so that we are not approached by poisonous insects that live in deserts. Usually, in the desert, many rattlesnakes are deadly. I don't know if there is a rattlesnake here or something more."Mr. Ales, eat now. This is where you w

    Chapter 27Alessia's POVI FINISHED eating the apple and drank some water. Elijah accompanied me here inside the tent. He hasn't gone out since he got back to get water."Sleep," Elijah promised me that's why I lay down."How are you?" I asked him. I don't know if he will sleep or go out."I'm gonna sleep too." He answered me that it seemed like a natural thing for him.I lay down on a cloth there and made my arm a pillow and lay on my side. Elijah took a position to lie down but he pulled me so that I fell in his arms and he turned me closer to his body.I felt heat on my cheeks. I don't know if I can sleep well in this situation, especially with the smell of Elijah's scent. I wondered if I smelled bad, especially since I was sweating earlier. But why should I even think about that, all of us here have not taken a bath yet because there is no place to take a bath here."How old are you exactly, Elijah?" I asked him. To this day I still wonder how old he is. I know he is over a thousa

    Alessia's POV"Let’s go," Elijah said to me and gave Rafi a bad look before turning awayRafi also looked at Elijah but he didn't say anything. Rafi just turned around and approached his horse.I went with Elijah so I could ride his horse. I looked at Sushi who was now being held by Stefano who was already riding his horse. Stefano didn't look at us so I thanked him.Elijah immediately picked me up and put me on his horse. I felt comfortable immediately and he got on and sat behind me."Remember to be cautious about any movements once we enter the domain," Elijah promised everyone. I heard their short answers.Elijah immediately ran in a fast way. In front of me I can see that it is like a tunnel because the road is going down and when we are at the bottom, the place will look like a maze.But it's also like a grand canyon in the middle of the desert. I clung to the horse's back very tightly especially since we were going downhill and it was fast.My eyes immediately met what seemed t

    Alessia's POVThe golden dust showered upon us. I saw how the vines stopped moving. I don't know how to operate the unisus but it automatically operates itself. It seemed to know what to do so I put my trust in the horse.We entered quickly and I almost held my breath because I felt like I was riding a roller coaster because of Bolt's speed and movement. Many avoid unisus obstructing vines. What we are going through is very difficult and if I make a mistake in holding I will surely fall. I looked down and saw sharp thorns there which I knew was not a good sign if we were going to fall. We will surely die once we hit the ground.My grip became tighter due to nervousness and fear. The vines are too big but the unisus don't seem to be struggling, they seem to be very used to this path. Soon I also saw the border of the vines. I became more determined and Bolt went faster.We were all quiet and just focused on getting through these deadly vines successfully. I could see the border until w

    Alessia's POVI looked around and couldn't see any place I could pass. The great eagle's nest rested on a large branch of a tree that grew on the cliff.Sushi is still not back to its rightful state. All I know is that he is affected by the loss of the three necromancers, but I didn't think it would be like this, that he doesn't seem to feel anything around him.I was surprised because I heard the sound of the eagle. I quickly stood up and the nest shook a bit so I felt nervous. I was holding Sushi who was delirious and I passed the two chicks who I knew would not bring me harm.I have to get out of here before the eagle comes back. I quickly grabbed a branch sticking out of the nest and spun around to get out and step onto the branch. I kept my eyes up and didn't try to look down. I feel that the moment I do that, my fear will only increase.I slowly crossed the branch and I could see the plain path in the gorge on the right side. I need to reach it to get away from the eagle's nest.

    Alessia's POVErigor told me a lot about his life in the past years here in this place. He did not know what the name of this place was so he then decided to call it La Krispana even though that was not its name.I also learned that there are stray mountain goats here that Erigor hunts to be his daily food. I see the dried meat of the goats and instead of feeling hungry and greedy, my stomach seems to be turning upside down. I don't know if that can pass as food. But what I do know, is that was his food while staying in this place.But I don't want to eat them myself. Maybe if I don't have a choice, I'll eat that. But right now, while I don't feel hungry yet, I won't eat."You don't want to eat? It just looks inedible, but it's delicious. It's just like dried fish, only it's fat because we don't have salt in it. But it's filling and will help to prolong our lives." He promised me and again offered me a piece of dried meat that he had roasted on the fire.I was nervous. What if I get s

    Alessia's POV"Take this path and pick the wood you see. Just take the path back and you'll be back here. I'll be on the other side so we can go faster." He promised me so I nodded.Erigor and I immediately parted ways and I followed the path he was telling me. I don't know if I can see any trees in this area. There is a lot of stone here and not wood.Instead of complaining I looked for wood. I could see some trees but they weren't real, they were just small branches blown by a strong wind. But I still picked it up because it would also fall asleep making a fire. Big or small, that's important, especially in this situation. As they say, you will only see its value at a time when you already lost it.I keep walking and I collect wood. I don't know if they last all night because I don't think so. I still get a little and I have traveled a long way. But I still know the way back. This is a beautiful place, you won't get lost inside because there is only one way.I've made a few turns an

    Alessia's POVI can feel the heat from the fire. I'm now huddled in a corner while Sushi is still unconscious. I'm already feeling worried because he still hasn't woken up until now. Sushi was breathing, and I couldn't see any other signs that would worry me more. All I know now is that I have to protect him.Maybe this will pass and everything will be fine. Sushi will also wake up as if nothing happened. I hope that when I wake up tomorrow he will be fine.I remembered what happened earlier when I came back from Cerberus's cave."This is all I got." I tried not to stutter as I faced Erigor who was carrying more wood than I had managed to get before the Slither attacked me."Is there little wood there?" He asked me in surprise. He put what he got on the floor."Yeah, it's all I got," I answered him.Erigor looked at me as if surprised. He noticed that my clothes were dirtier than before we broke up."What happened to you?" I frowned when he asked me so I looked at myself."I-I slipped

My feet are also hurting because they are starting to swell."Near grandson, I'm sorry but this walk is for your good as well," Grandpa responded to me and we turned to a fork in the road.It would have been easier if Grandpa teleported with me but that can't be done because I'm pregnant. The force and tension of teleportation are too strong for my son to be with. So we can do nothing but walk. I can't even ride a horse because the horse moves.I feel the surroundings. It's getting darker and I feel familiar to me. Living trees become dead. The surroundings are shady and cooler.I gasped when I remembered that I had been there when I first met Elijah and Stefano.

    Alessia's POVAFTER we entered the courtyard with Stefano we watched Valeria's proud dance. Stefano told me that that dance is Faerie Dance. This dance is not simply danced anywhere because it is only done with every blessing of the moon.This dance is truly beautiful and it is the first time I have seen such a dance. It's like flying in the air—no, they can slightly fly, maybe they learned martial arts and they can do that.Then everyone applauded and the banquet began. Wines and food are sufficient for all. I didn't drink alcohol because I know their alcohol here is strong. Even though I know that I am immortal, my body is still not used to life here. That doesn't mean I won't get drunk either."Lady Alessia, I heard from the King that you are only a healer. If possible, could you look at me?" Suddenly a lady asked me a question. This is the companion of the war general.I smiled at him. "If I'm not mistaken, you are the wife of general Ambrosias, am I right?" I confirm.She covered

Stefano didn't move me anymore, he looked sullen at me after scolding me.I don't want to force him to get along because I feel that he is in a bad mood and doesn't want to talk to me anymore. I can already picture in my mind the fear of the sentinels and loggers here earlier because of the incident."Thank you," I told Stefano but he didn't even look at me and didn't seem to hear anything.I was so snotty that I couldn't do anything and I was about to knock on the door when it suddenly opened and I immediately saw Sudanni who looked fine. His pointed ears and glowing golden eyes are striking with his long black hair."Ales." It seemed to me that he had expected my arrival.I swallowed because since Callora Grande this was the first time I saw him again."Can I talk to you?" I asked him."Come in." And it widened the opening of the door.I didn't think twice about going in even though I knew that Ste

There is this distinct pumpkin taste that makes me think that I am drinking vegetable juice which I don't like.But I refrained from wincing especially and I was freed and I will be more artistic. I'll just remind myself not to drink pumpkin juice in the future.

The fact that I had longed to see since I landed here in Wysteria immediately appeared in my mind's eye."L-grandpa..." I whispered and my tears suddenly fell to the side and I quickly approached him to hug him."My grandson..." Grandfather hugged me back. "I'm sorry if I only showed you now. Everything was too complicated so it took me a while." He told me that I could feel in his voice that he was crying.I separated from him while my tears flowed. I don't know how to begin with the number of things I want to say to him."Grandpa, so many things happened...So many questions in my mind that I don't know what the answer is." I promise to sob. Because I have been praying for this scene for a long time. Because of all my questions, only grandpa can answer.He held my hand and pulled me towards a deserted alley."I know there's a lot you want to know. But this isn't the right time and place for you to kn

I don't even know how I will react if he doesn't agree.I saw Stefano walking and he was carrying a box that I didn't know what was inside. I ran towards him because he didn't notice me."Stefano! What is that for?" I immediately asked him so Stefano turned to me and stopped.I pointed to the box he was carrying so he immediately understood that I was talking about that."Is this? It's for Sudanni. She doesn't eat our normal food and she has to cook her food." He answered me.I blinked. I almost forgot about Sudanni. He disappeared from my mind when there was trouble in Samona. I don't even know if he was in the war or was here first in Valencia."He's not normal, to begin with..." I replied to him. To this day I will still be mystified by Sudanni or Erigor. My sullenness towards him still hasn't disappeared. "Did you see Elijah?" I'll just ask him instead of tal

    Alessia's POVWe got home to the Palace immediately. Elijah made me wear a black hood so I wouldn't attract attention in the palace. I want to rest and if the palace staff sees me I know that my day will not be quiet.Sushi was just following me and the palace staff didn't notice us. They gave more attention to the Sentinels who needed attention because of the dirt on their bodies. Elijah also did not allow me to help with the treatment because he said I had to put myself first. After all, I was not getting enough rest. I can't argue with him anymore because even my body is giving up.I went upstairs because I needed a shower and fell asleep. I don't care if I haven't eaten yet because my tiredness has a stronger influence than the hunger I feel.I immediately entered my room and inhaled the familiar smell of flowers. I immediately took off the black hood and just let it fall to the floor.Estrebelle immediately came out of the bathroom prepared for my arrival."Miss Alessia, your bat
