Chapter 37

Aesthelia frantically tried to search for the old woman's whereabouts. The old woman's disappearance confirmed that she was involved in witchcraft or so, but it wasn't important right now. even

if the old woman is a witch. Aesthelia didn't plan for execution. This story clearly said that witches and vampires have been conspiring to take over the world, but that sounded a little exaggerated to Aesthelia. 

It wasn't like the witches and vampires were good friends and allies. The empire made it look that way, so everyone has been hunting those who they thought were witches. 

Those who are naturally endowed with powers such as divine power are destined to be saints and saintesses in the cathedral, while those who possess powers through enchantment and summonings are hunted.

Aesthelia wanted to ask for more answers to her questions. Why was she helping

  The pack house was almost turned upside down when another issue was detected. It seems like the drought has come earlier than they expected. The high-ranking wolves are now allocating the remaining resources, and they have been discussing the best method to execute. The supplies have decreased, which has troubled them greatly. Gior and Aesthelia looked like each other. They agreed to keep their conversation last night secret. There was no doubt that Gior felt somewhat betrayed. He did not know what to do. Merideth is his childhood friend, and he promised Merideth's mom that he would protect his daughter. It has become more complicated. Both of them have not slept a wink since getting back into the pack house. Aesthelia planned to at least sleep the moment she got home. A human servant was ordered to bring Aesthelia into the pack house, and the same case with Gior. Aesthelia chuckled at Gior's growing eyebags, but even after h

  The smell of cinnamon bread lingers in the air as it reaches Aesthelia's nostrils. When Aesthelia identified the bread, she almost immediately rose from the bed she was laying on.That was one of her favorites. So she sat up straight, even though she hadn't flitted her eyes open."Cinnamon... bread," Aesthelia said in a high-pitched tone, but her words trailed off.Aesthelia's heart almost dropped when she saw Gior sitting in front of her. Gior was comfortable sitting at the table located on the open balcony.Gior sipped his drink while looking at Aesthelia's path. I was wondering if this was her sleeping habit."Cute," Gior mumbled.Aesthelia immediately scanned herself. Aesthelia has been wondering why she is in bed right now when the last thing that she remembered was that they were on their way to the capital's market."What happened?" Aesthelia squinted her eyes at Gior's approach. Aesthelis didn't bother hiding

  They were tip-toeing when a crowd of nobles appeared at the end of the hall. Gior quickly hugged Aesthelia's waist and jumped to hide."That was close," Aesthelia whispered.Aesthelia tried sneaking a peek at him, but the moment she did, she instantly regretted it because of how close they are.Aesthelia quickly diverted her eyes as she felt her cheeks, blushing a light pink. She just hopes that he won't notice it because it would be embarrassing for her."Good call," Aesthelia cleared her throat, wanting to compliment him on his quick reaction."I'm alerted since I'm with you. You're a trouble magnet. Have you forgotten that? " Gior said casually, and he added a smirk as Aesthelia's expression changed to a sour look.The both of them remained quiet as they waited for the nobles to pass by. The chattering and gossiping made Aesthelia itch, which she wasn't expecting from them. The novels are quite different in t

  As some knights patrolled the area, Aesthelia hid among the bookshelves. She was confused because they hadn't encountered any knights earlier. The hallway was empty."What business do you have here?" Elliot, he said, with an authoritative voice.Elliot's eyes side-glance secretly to where Gior and Aesthelia are hiding right now.Gior stayed quiet beside Aesthelia. He is not moving an inch, so they will not make any noises, but if something happens that is out of their control, he will transform right away, even if it is forbidden to do so inside the empire. They don't know what trouble may come."We have just received an order from the crown prince," the knight said casually, as if it was an absolute order from above, to which even another prince couldn't object."The west wing isn't under his rule, isn't it?" Elliot whispered angrily. He does not like it, emphasizing the word "crown prince." The knight was either oblivious

  After Aesthelia and Elliot's conversation, together with Gior, they secretly went out without anyone in the empire knowing, except for Elliot, who watched from afar. Aesthelia and Gior almost reached their destination. It's the place where the warriors and merchants stayed. The plan was to stay a day or two until the supplies were completed. The two finally arrived at the inn. It's a place where travelers and the like spend the night. It has rental rooms. The moment they opened the door into a huge connected room, the warriors, who looked worried, sighed after seeing the two, unharmed and together. "Where have you been?" The head merchant stated Asthelia's eyes roamed around, and she was greeted by their worried gazes. The two of them have gone for a couple of hours. Of course, that's enough time for those knights to overthink things. "An imperial subject interrupted us when we strolled down the market," Aesthelia said firm

  After a moment of convincing and explaining things to Gior, though, Aesthelia wasn't sure if the information she knew was exactly what this world possessed. There are two types of magic stones. The first one would be the most common, the human-made magic stones. They're the stones that are blessed by the divine power for protection purposes. The priest and priestess were the ones who distributed them because they were the only ones who possessed and were gifted with divine powers, and the empire, of course, permitted the spread of the said divine-blessed magical stone. The Empire and the Cathedral have been working together for decades, since the first emperor founded the empire. The Cathedral has become its support. The second type of magic stone is rare. It was a natural-made magic stone. It happens when there's a natural mana tropical storm, when mana has been gathered in one place. The best way to contain it is with a stone. It's

  The sound of water dripping from the water pipe outside seems to resound through the four corners of the store.Aesthelia silently sat as she had become unaware of her surroundings. The regret she has right now is that she should've finished the novel before sleeping. She ruffled her hair and sighed heavily."Stop," Gior mumbled as he reached out his hand to stop Aesthelia's doing. There was no point in doing that; it might only cause her a headache, and he's worried.The goblins were oblivious to the scheme the vampire involved them in. They did not want something like this to happen just because they wanted to live among humans. They do not know how they are going to make up for it."There's no time to waste. We have to get the supplies and travel back to the pack, "Aesthelia announced as she stood up abruptly, taking everyone by surprise."It's getting dark," Gior said."We must travel the moment the sun rises agai

  Aesthelia couldn't keep up with the speed. It seems that the two fighters were going at it full force. "Not going to lie." a warrior said, gaping as he watched the fight and added, "The Alpha's amazing," Aesthelia stared harder and she saw how they exchanged attacks. Gior didn't let his guard down as he bit him, which made the vampire whimper in pain. The vampire's right arm was bleeding and nearly ripped off, but he managed to get away before it happened. It's true that Gior's skills are far from average. Aesthelia and Gior have been fighting for the title of strongest warrior for years. Aesthelia can't help but worry. The vampire gives off a different aura than the other scentless creatures. Aesthelia gulped when Russell looked her way and smirked, as if he had something up his sleeves. That's when Aesthelia noticed the silver. Aesthelia and the other wolves gasped when they saw Gior go flying to a large tree and ne

  They stood there in silence. No one dared utter a single word. They were waiting for someone to break that silence.Gior was staring at Aesthelia. It had been so long since the last time he stared at that beauty. He lasted a year and it killed him, but now, he could feel himself tearing up in happiness as he once again met her and was reminded by her face. He did not forget her. Gior smiled as he laid his arms wide open, waiting for a warm hug from Aesthelia. Even though they were two Aesthelia, he recognized the one that he had come to love and the one who transmigrated into their world.Aesthelia, who got teary-eyed, rushed over to Gior and asked, "How did you get here?""Love finds its way," Gior answered vaguely as he kissed her forehead.The one thing he always imagined he must have done, he always regretted how he didn't cherish her."I thought that the Alpha wouldn't change," The other Aesthelia stepped up with her arms crossed, and when she noticed that all eyes were on her, s

  Gior felt himself falling from an average height, which caused the pain he was experiencing to lessen. The portal appears to be hanging in the air. The shivering cold air seized control of the burns he was already feeling.Gior attempted to close his eyes in order to concentrate on shifting, but to no avail. He found it impossible. Gior plummeted to the ground face first in a couple of seconds before he can even even think of a solution.He quickly raised to his feet and massaged his nose. The mud on his clothing was brushed off. His wandering gaze discovered him encircled by tall trees.After him, there was another deafening thud.Gior asked with wide eyes, "What were you guys thinking by following me here? Do you guys know how dangerous it is?"Without really caring about the enraged Alpha, Flo assisted Marie in getting to her feet and checked on his mate. He turned his head to face the Alpha after making sure Marie was in fact fine and had no scratches."Let me ask you, Alpha, what

They offered to assist in relocating the bodies and properly buried them. countless unforeseen tragedies.Time flew by.And after a year, the empires that were on the edge of collapsing from the vampires' attempts at oppression are now little by little recovering from the casualties caused by the war.

  The strategic defense of Aesthelia is like an iron wall. No vampires could pass through, and by the time Aesthelia decided to go—it started crumbling a little. The absence of a strategist made the team hesitate."Keep pushing, warriors!" Flo shouted, which made everyone snap out of it. He took over coaching immediately.Flo quickly stood on his feet as he transformed back. As a beta, it is his obligation to lead. "Do as he says," Marie commanded her fellow-humans.Marie grabbed the sword. She was about to go, to protect her lady, but Flo intervened and said, "Marie, snap out of it." When Flo touches Marie, a flash of spark flows through him. He knew at that moment that Marie was his mate. The sudden realization took him seconds as his eyes drowned deep in his own mate's eyes. He momentarily forgot the situation they were in— not until Marie struggled to get out of his touch."Aesthelia has the blessing." She can defeat him. " Flo stated, and he added, "You are much needed here to k

  Aesthelia collided with Gior's arm. That is when they clearly felt the spark when their skin touched. It only means they are fated to be mates—mates with an uncontrollable bond. Gior snapped out of his anger. He became relaxed under Aesthelia's touch, and he almost lost all of his reasoning earlier when he saw Aesthelia's being injured and just mindlessly attacked.This is the first time Aesthelia realized it. Now that explains why Aesthelia shows that behavior. The hostility against Merideth, how her wolf disappeared, and why her emotions are affected by anything that involves Gior."We are mates?" Aesthelia asked in confusion. However, Aesthelia already knew the answer. "Yes." Gior said, straight-staring at her eyes. His eyes became soft; the relentlessness that he felt vanished in an instant."What a sweet reunion that you have forgotten about me," The vampire king muttered amused while clapping his hands, trying to gain everyone's attention. "How can I forget about you?""When

  The more her breath hitches, the more her heart beats. Lurking inside the enemy's dangerous teritorry can be nerve-wrecking and terrifying. Aesthelia felt like she will bath on her own nervous sweat. She wanted to ignore how her knee trembled for a second when the vampire stared down at her earlier—she felt as if the vampire could have snapped her neck in a minute. The eyes of predators who carefully observe their prey's movements are far scarier than any horror films she has seen."The difference is—I am one of the people who's on the death list now." Aesthelia was lost in her own thoughts. She voiced them out with a sadder-chuckling tone. At least Merideth is with them right now. They can get closer and interrogate the vampire to plan the escape. Aesthelia can relax, but she remains vigilant—a traitor who has betrayed you once can betray you again.For some time, Elliot managed to walk little by little until he could perfectly walk without limping. Aesthelia's worry is reduced. "

  There's no window, no light, and nowhere to escape to, except the tunnel. There is an escape route, but there is a high chance that they will end up in the ocean and drown.Aesthelia stayed hidden unbelievably for at least two days, waiting for Elliot's recovery along with Custos', who had exhausted his mana to its limit.Goodthing. The vampires didn't seem to eagerly check the underground, or else they'd die without much fight. The smell of dried blood of deceased prisoners masked Aesthelia's and Elliot's scents. The awful and wrenching smell helped them, even though it made Aesthelia vomit. It seems the situation made her overcome her fear of blood. She doesn't have much choice at this point."AGH…" Elliot groaned in pain as he was slowly gaining consciousness.Aesthelia swiftly goes to Elliot's side to assist him. "W-where am I?" Elliot asked worriedly. He's unable to get up and his visions are out. "We're hiding in the underground dungeon." "We are safe for now, but I don't kno

  The gathering took place at the pack house. They are getting ready by informing every warrior wolf, even the wolves who are not yet trained, want to participate and protect their pack. The quiet and serious vibe going around was interrupted when human servants came running and barging. She's demanding for an answer."What do you mean, Aesthelia didn't come back with you?" Marie questioned the wolf who happened to go with the mission. She grabbed him by the clothes near his collar. Her strength seemed to match the wolf's. Marie just got the news of their arrival and came running as if her life was at stake. Aesthelia was like Marie's family. She lived most of her life taking care of Aesthelia and dedicated her life to Aesthelia's safety."Third-in-Command Aesthelia escorted us as soon as we were within the shield. She dashed off and disappeared. " A warrior wolf said patiently with more details. The disruption caught almost everyone's attention, including the higher wolves and the a

  The sense of impending doom had vanished. Gior found himself panting as he attempted to awaken from a deep slumber. His wounds still cause him some discomfort.Unlike the grass and rough stone where he had fallen while unwittingly fighting a vampire, the bed where he was presently felt soft.The memories of the recent fight came crashing into him as soon as he recalled the bloodsucking creature—one more deep breath as he sat up with sweat flowing all over his body. "W-where am I?" He asked in a hoarse voice. His throat became dry, rendering him unable to speak.His eyes scanned the familiar ceiling and everything. It looks like they've gone back to the pack, at least that's what he thought. It means that they successfully completed the mission, which solved the pack storage shortage. "The Alpha is awake!" As soon as she saw Gior move, the salutary announced. A couple of howls soon followed, and they can be heard outside of the place. The werewolves who were terrified and heartbroken
