Chapter Twenty-One.

Nina's POV

Since I woke up in this body, I didn't really believe it at first. I've tried finding ways to go back, I keep wondering what if I'm just dreaming? What if I didn't really die and I'm just in a state of coma? So many what-ifs came to my mind. I can't accept that I died young and just months away from my eighteenth debut.

I'm not scared of dying because I know all people will return to nature. Death is part of nature as is Life. But what I can't accept and what I fear is that I won't even be able to repay my parents and friends well. I'm scared of not paying them back for all their good deeds, I'm scared of not fulfilling my dreams, and being a burden because of all the things they have to prepare after my death.

And if ever, I want to say goodbye for the last time.

    Chapter Twenty-Two. Nina's POV "Lady Gina your timing will be crucial and will make it to our advantage." I seriously said to him, I am still thinking of things. She nodded well, her innocent eyes are sparkling. I turned to the two people who were far away from each other. One was smiling while the other did not react. When Kaiden and I made eye contact, he smiled like an idiot, his smile reached his ears and I couldn't understand why. It looks stupid. Instead of calling it out. I mentally rolled my eyes and smiled brightly at Kaiden. "Lord Kaiden, I believe you're an earth attribute user, right?" I guessed. If he can control the power of the earth, it would be very advantageous for us. He smirked letting out an annoying teasing smile that makes you want to rip it apart. "I didn't know that Lady Marina is quietly interested in me. It's an honor, Señorita." When I heard him say this I can't help my eyebrow twitch for a moment and making my smile almost crack. Its thickness. W

    Chapter Twenty-Three. Nina's POV Hilbert Alucard. The eldest son of a famous wealthy sea merchant from the southwestern region of the Kingdom that soon became a tycoon. I don't know much about him other than public information. The reason why I know his name is because I have to memorize all the names of the wealthy because it's part of the noble education and to avoid those who should be avoided and the shady characters. I can't also risk being exposed because even if Lady Marina will be forgotten, it only applies to people with no standing in society. Heyssss…. when I thought that noble are all just fun and games but it turns out not to be. Being a noble is exhausting, your schedule is full of classes and you can't just make your own schedule based on what you want to do. And why do all people I certainly remember Hilbert Alucard is because of his surname. It picks my interest because it's the same game that my male classmates from my past life always talk about.

The water splashed and drenched the two giants.Whoosh!Ice-cold water particles sprayed down like rain drenching the ground and surrounding. Water droplets started to crystallize bit by bit. It's like small diamonds, reflecting while floating in midair.I saw Lord Ethan and Kaiden exchange looks before nodding as if they have a certain understanding of each other's plan.Ayeeeeee, is it teamwork development?Ahem.Just forget that I said anything.The wet ground in front of the monster started to squirm and in a flash, a giant hand molded from mud suddenly rose up!What the heck!?I jumped in fear.

Do you want to come?"Her face immediately lit up like an excited child but her expression came to a halt and turned into a slight frown."I can't be with Lady Marina, even if I wanted to." Her face showed deep sadness and regret before she looked at me curiously."I didn't expect you to like books Lady Marina, I thought you didn't like books because they said you get bored of them quickly ah-" she came to a halt and gasped as if she should never have said that.She looked at me worriedly and her face spelled regret.

    Chapter Twenty-Six. Nina's POV I quickly walked to the main building and went straight to the lobby. I immediately saw Rita standing with a small leather briefcase in her hand, it looked like a statue because it didn't even move where it stood. When I looked around Rita was not the only one here, most of the maidservants and valets were both standing and waiting for their masters. When Rita saw me approaching, she immediately moved and met me. She greeted in a soft voice, "Welcome back, milady." I paused in front of her and was about to greet her back when I remembered that I'm not Nina Facelo, I'm currently Lady Marina. I have to do well on my acting, I can't afford to be viewed as problematic and suspicious. I just nodded at her and started walking, ignoring the prying eyes of some students and maidservants. Why? Is it surprising to see that I am calm and not fighting with my maid? I bet they were expecting me to run havoc after not having the grand price and was stolen by s

    Chapter Twenty-Seven. Nina’s POV The sudden knock on the door almost made me jump in fright. Mabuti na lang ay agad kong napigilan ang sarili ko kundi, I would probably let out an ear piercing scream na samahan pa ng malulutong na mura. That would be very shameful and would crushed my precious noble status. Well, it's not like super ganda ng status ko pero, at least naman may konting pride rin bilang isang noble, for all the hard work and lesson na dinaanan ko. "Lady Marina, may dumating pong isang package para sayo." Rita announced behind the door. Agad akong naka-hinga ng maluwag dahil hindi narinig ni Rita ang pinag-usapan namin ni Droon or more likely me talking to myself. I sounded like a mental patient. Well, hindi na ako magtataka dahil sanay na ako sa ganoon. My parents always say na nababaliw na raw ako, everytime na naririnig nila akong mag-isang tumatawa o nakikitang ngumiti ng mag-isa. It’s inevitable, lalo na kapag nakaka-hook ang story. "Come in," I said. Pretend

I forgot that I'm not alone.Arghhh old habits die hard for them. I'm used to talking to myself and always being alone. To think someone would actually reply is terrifying!What is this?! horror movie?!If I was in earth, I might have passed out from shock and fear. If I didn't know Droon, I would probably think that there are really spirits here. I might conclude that this book is no rom-com, but a horror novel!"No, don't pay attention to what I said."“Un…” Droon replied, agreeing.After a few seconds of silence, I called out his name."There," I softly said.“Uh?…”"Can you read what's inside my mind?" I asked in deliberation.Droon paused for a second before replying, “No…. I can… only… read… what you want… me to read… but… instead… what… you see… is what I see… and… what… you hear…

    CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE Nina's POV I lift up my hand and bend down to reach the fancy decorated box. I grabbed it and placed it in my lap. I slowly pulled the hem of the red ribbon until it was unwrapped. I can't help but to grin widely. My hands are shaking from the excitement because this is my first time receiving a fancy decorated, magical gift. I think my courting to Death did receive a slight response. The box wasn't that big, it was a medium size box. I immediately pulled the top cover and when I saw what was inside I couldn't help but be surprised. My eyes went wide open that I think were the size of an owl. My hands were trembling, my pupils shook and my heart palpitated when I saw what's inside the box. I can't believe this! The item inside the box was also a small black box! What's a scam?! I think I got scammed. Thank you very much to everyone! I controlled my trembling hands from anger and took a deep breath. All the suspense was not good for my heart, the feeling i

I didn't realize my breathing stopped for a few seconds until I felt that the oxygen around me wasn't going to my lungs.I tried to calm down and tighten my thoughts and feelings. Soon, my breathing calmed down and for once again I tried to read the last part of the entry one more time.I don't even know why I am feeling nervous. My body just shivered on its own and started trembling.I don't understand what's wrong. But instead of focusing on this detail I decided to read the entry. It was as if I was reading a forbidden knowledge, or I was spying on Senior Janice's secrets.For the last time I breathed a sigh and ironed my heart.“Elemental spirit! Isn't that amazing!?

The dark space soon opened and revealed some things.I didn't look at or touch the sword, instead I took the papers at the bottom. Grabbing the yellowed stain papers, I arranged them and placed them above the queen size bed.I pick up the very first page near me."4th Month of Gold (March). Why are my friends so stupid? I've repeated myself so many times. Don't be fooled by those people from the magic tower! They are scamming us! Thinking that the key to fully control our mana and have our mana core strengthen is by forcing to manipulate the mana around us. 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.

That silhouette turned around slowly. His eyes are deep, gray, and cold."A battle." he simply answered.The man who has bright blue eyes could help but twitch his eyebrows at how dry the response was. If it wasn't for his friend he would have already smacked the heck out of the man's brain.The blue eyed man just shook his head and walked towards the laying cold corpse.

I lifted my hand and held it under his nose.Warm air brushed through my fingers.I nodded in satisfaction.Fortunately, he isn't dead yet. But anytime soon, he probably would. And we don't have much time now.My sight landed on the blessed sword not far away Zen, it was laying flat cold on the ground just like its holder."Over there, are you still there?" I asked as I stood up and walked over to the blessed sword.It too a few second before Droon answered, "un... I'm still alive..."I just ignored the slight displeased in his voice. I bent down and reached for the sword. "Can you heal him? We need to get out of here now. I don't want another headache from those Gardeners."

Deep cuts could be seen but I didn't feel any pain.I was about to wipe the blood when in a flash, a silver sword was coming towards my face. A white glow emanated from its blade.-Woom!As if a bolt of lightning had descended, a bright light illuminated the room and a horizontal white streak of light appeared on my right side. I immediately rolled over before it hit me.Without letting me breath another sword passed through my left side, I tilted my head and twirl my scythe above me to deflect another annoying sword above me."You're pretty heartless do you know that?" He said as he slowly walked towards my direction playing with his greatsword."You just left your partner dying in my hands," he stated with a grin.I look at him blankly, "is that so?"I ready my hand

With one of its legs resting on the branches of the tree and an arm supporting one of its cheeks, the creature had its eyes closed. It had a muscular human body with two bat-like wings attached to its back. From behind its tailbone, a long black tail wiggled around the air.Sensing something, the humanoid creature slowly opened its eyes revealing two deep red eyes that exuded boundless bloodlust.Staring at me who was frozen solid in place Looking at the fight between devil worshipers and the Gardeners, the humanoid-like creature smiled eerily as it looked down on the mess."Ku Ku Ku, what have we got here?" as his attention was attracted to three persons.
