Aathreya opened the door to the room that used to be his room. "You should thank me because I told the maid not to change anything here," said Cristela. Aathreya's eyes looked around the room and realized that what Cristela said was indeed true. He then looked at the rancid girl who had become an old woman next to him. "Thank you," he said as he gently ruffled the old woman's hair. He entered the room and closed the door, ignoring Cristela who was surprised by his actions. Cristela held her hair. which Aathreya had tousled, and then she remembered the past. When she was little, Aathreya used to do that to her. "Huh. He hasn't changed," she said, then turned to leave Aathreya's room, followed by Erika and Erina. *** Elsewhere, Odette was telling Anwen about her suspicions that Aathreya had something to do with her being stranded in this era, "Why do you think like that, Miss Ody?" Anwen asked. She was quite surprised by what Odette had just said to her. "I told you that while i
After Odette became the queen, she would find the tailor and tell them to make clothes according to her wishes. "Well, I don't think His Majesty the King will be able to take his eyes off you, My Lady," said one of the young maids when Odette was finally ready to be brought out. "Please, My Lady," said another maid after placing a pair of shoes in front of Odette's feet. Odette put them on and said thank you. A moment later, Anwen opened the door. "Miss Ody," she called in a cheerful voice. Odette and everyone in the room were stunned by the princess' totally different appearance. She was wearing a dress. Anwen was wearing a light purple dress that matched her perfectly. Her short hair was decorated with lovely pins with small purple flowers. For the first time, Odette saw Anwen as a girl. The girl stepped in. "Wow, my sister-in-law looks really amazing," she said, surprising Odette with the new nickname the young girl gave her. "You.... what did you call me?" "Sister-in-law.
"My brother seems to really love sister-in-law," said Anwen, who was dancing with Trish. Not getting any answer, she turned her head to look at the face of the man who became her dance partner. "Trishy, what's wrong?" she asked when she found Trish staring unblinkingly at Rion and Odette. "Trishy!" Anwen tapped lightly on Trish's hand that was holding hers. This made Trish startle and looked straight at her. "What do you think?" Anwen asked. "You're right. His Majesty seems to really like Miss Odette," Trish said and smiled as he made Anwen step left and right to the rhythm of the music. After watching Odette for a while, Aathreya turned to Cristela who was standing next to him. "Rat girl, do you want to dance with me?" he asked. Cristela almost choked on her saliva after hearing Aathreya's invitation. She looked at the man with an indifferent face before finally smiling sarcastically. "No thanks, I don't want to embarrass myself," she said and then left Aathreya to approach
"If you don't believe me, why are you asking me in the first place?" "Because I feel that the sudden incident of me being here was not a coincidence and I feel you know something. The answer you gave me earlier, I believe was not an honest answer." Odette looked at Athreya suspiciously. "I have a feeling you had something to do with all of this." "So, should I say yes just because you feel that way? Sounds like you're forcing me to justify your point." "It is not like that." "Then, how?" Aathreya smiled. In Odette's eyes, it looked like Aathreya was playing with her and mocking her. "Let's just say I agree about the portal, but how did my item that I left behind in the future suddenly be here? Do you know the reason?" Aathreya was tongue-tied. In his mind, he was trying to make an excuse to answer Odette's question. He knew that the thing the girl referred to was her phone. He brought it with him because he thought Odette would miss her mother, and that phone had many memories of
Odette swallowed her dry saliva when she thought that the man would strangle her or throw her against the wall for accidentally calling him Rion. The alter ego's expression was so different from usual that she failed to recognize it."I-I..." She frantically tried to escape and distance herself, but the man wouldn't let her off. "Don't do it again."Odette stared intently at the man in front of her and got startled when she saw the change of expression that occurred on his face. His sharp eyes slowly softened. It made her astonished and confused at the same time. She didn't even know what to say."You are very different tonight." Lucifer smiled faintly. "So beautiful," he added and kissed Odette's hand. His gentleness surprised her again. For a moment, the cat got her tongue. She could only remain silent as she observed him carefully, trying to understand what was really going on with Lucifer."Huh?" Her eyes widened in surprise when Lucifer suddenly carried her in bridal style. "W-
CHAPTER 132 - POISON"You?" Rion had come to his senses, and as usual he would look disoriented for a moment. "Did I relapse?" he asked after looking at his surroundings."Yes.""This time who else showed up and why did I hug you?""Lucifer."Rion was surprised. "What did you say?" "Lucifer."Rion looked into Odette's eyes, trying to find the trace of lies in those beautiful eyes, but he couldn't find what he was looking for."Let's go. Everyone is probably looking for us," said Odette with a faint smile and then walked away, leaving Rion behind.Before following the girl, he stood in his place while thinking hard. He had many questions in his head. Whereas Odette kept thinking about Lucifer along the way. However, it shattered when she realized she was still holding the crystal from Aathreya."Where did you get that thing from?" Rion asked as soon as he appeared beside Odette and saw what she was holding."This… this is from Aathreya.""Aathreya? Why did he give it to you?" Rion fu
"She just drank poison."Odette was surprised to hear Rion's exclamation as well as Doctor Alex."What do you mean? I'm fine.""Doctor Alex, check her and make sure she's poisoned or not." Rion focused on Doctor Alex and ignored Odette's protest.Aathreya and Narine entered the room before Doctor Alex said anything in response to Rion's words."Alice, are you all right?" Aathreya asked as he approached and grabbed Odette's shoulder anxiously. He looked deeply worried, making Odette a little surprised and confused by the man's attitude. The three people in the room felt the same way."Y-yes," replied Odette awkwardly.After hearing that, Aathreya let go of Odette's shoulder and stood up straight."Give it to me," he said to Rion, asking for the glass that Rion was holding. Rion gave it to him with a determined look in his eyes.Aathreya then dipped his index finger into the remaining liquid that was in the glass. Everyone looked at Aathreya who was smelling the liquid while holding th
Lightning flashed and thunderclaps sounded as if the sky was about to split open from the explosion. Under the torrential rain, a black-haired woman taking her young son's hand while running aimlessly.She didn't know where her steps would take her. She only knew she had to save her son's life."MOM, WHY ARE WE RUNNING?"The grey-haired boy asked as he continued to run after his mother's fast pace. He raised his head up and his eyes narrowed because of the rain. He looked at his mother's tensed face which focused her gaze ahead."MOM, WHY ARE WE LEAVING UNCLE DERIL? MOTHER, LET'S GO BACK!"The sound of the rain made the child have to scream while talking to his mother. He kept asking his mother to come back, but the mother ignored him. Having been ignored repeatedly, he began to feel irritated.He slapped his mother's hand that was holding him and then stopped running, making her mother startled and spontaneously stop too."WE MUST RUN, RION!""I DON'T WANT TO!" Rion hid
