Audrey 2.0
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56When Audrey and her huge cat Nero arrived at the entrance of the Lee clan's courtyard, the sun had already taken a deep dive at the western horizon. The moon which was in the shape of a sickle was now hanging high above the sky and was shining brightly at the dark night. Likewise, countless stars had already littered the vast night sky as though thousand tiny needles had punctured their way through them.
Also, the massive cat started to shrink and became as small as a kitten. But given everything that she had witnessed so far ever since she accepted that she transmigrated to another world, Audrey was no longer surprised to see Nero perform a transformation right before her eyes.
Audrey was more concerned by the fact that the gate of their residence was tightly closed and there were two muscular men standing guard at its entrance. Left with no choice, she decided to approach one of them.
"Who are you and what business do you have with the Lee clan? The clan head is not available for the meantime so I suggest you better go back next time."
Said one of the guards without even giving the lady before her a proper glance. It seemed like they were instructed to turn down all of the guests for today and that did not sound as good news for Audrey. She did not know what to say anymore. If she failed to enter the residence, then where the heck would she spend her night?!!
She knew nothing next to that darn place!!!
"Err,----", Audrey trailed off as she tried to come up with something to say. Then she deliberately cleared her throat and imitate the 'Audrey' she has in her memory.
"Am I not allowed to enter my own residence?!"
Audrey sounded awkward but the guards seemed so terrified to even notice that.
Who would not????
The troublemaker young miss that they used to know was standing right before their eyes, and not just only that, she was even dressed in blood-soaked clothes!
"Y...you...young miss???"
With a quivering voice, the guards gave Audrey a salute.
"Quick, go tell the clan head that young miss is back...and call the doctors"
One of the guards instructed his colleague as he hurriedly walked towards Audrey.
"Please forgive this servant for my ignorance. We fail to recognize young miss."
The guard made a ninety-degree bow when he talked to Audrey, afraid that he might incur the ire of their young miss. Meanwhile, Audrey was not sure how she should respond so she just nodded her head slightly to acknowledge the other party.
Soon dozens of people came running out of the residence to welcome Audrey. They assisted her as they go back inside the residence. For the first time in her life, Audrey got to feel how to be treated special. She even had attendants to take care of her. As soon as she reached her room, there was already a hot bath waiting for her.
"Young miss, this servant will be staying just outside your room. If you will need anything just call me."
Audrey remembered the owner of the voice as someone that came by the name of Sabel.
"Sabel, that is your name, right? I have something to ask you."
Sabel was startled when Audrey called her name. But she was quick to recover. Her young miss never called her by her name even once, but despite her surprise, she was still able to respond to Audrey in the nick of time.
"This servant will answer."
"Tell me. Where is your Lady Selene right now? And also, do you happen to know her whereabouts while I was away?"
"Young miss, Lady Selene just came back this morning. She was currently being treated by the house doctors as she came injured. She claimed to get ambushed while following you. The clan head was so furious and worried for both of you that he sends out troops to look for you. They might be back any minute now."
Sabel answered without hiding anything. This maidservant also knew that the two young misses had animosity toward each other.
"Injured? Well played, Selene."
Audrey scoffed and she was once reminded about the scheming personality of this cousin of hers.
She must admit, Selene was truly cunning. She even planned out her alibi very well. Turning herself into a kind-hearted lady as she used to be. She made it looked like she was just genuinely concerned for the well-being of her willful cousin and thus she followed Audrey without minding her own safety. Putting all the blame on Audrey if anything bad happened after. Perhaps she was even anticipating the news of her cousin's death from the guards that were sent to scout the area once she returned.
"Too bad, she will get to see the new Audrey this time."
A smirk broke out from Audrey's face when that thought crossed her mind.

As Audrey was left thinking on her own, she also turned silent. Meanwhile, as she was in the midst of deep contemplation, Sabel, on the other hand, observed her young miss and upon paying close attention to the other party, Sabel, saw a completely different Lady Audrey.If there was anyone in the Lee Residence who knew Audrey very well, that would be her handmaiden, Sabel. In fact, it would not be an exagerration if Sabel dare claimed and say that she knew her ladyship more than the head clan ever knew his doted grand daughter. She knew Audrey like the back of her hand because they were no different from bossom buddies. They technically grew up together and if only it was not because of the difference in their status, the two girls would be as good as bestfriends.However, at this point, in Sabel's eyes, it was as though the girl standing before her was not the same Lady Audrey that she used to know and served before.For some reason, she felt like something was off to

"You told me that its the power within your blood that saved me and brought us to this place, how was that possible?""What do you think about this Selene girl?"Out of nowhere, Audrey found hersef inquiring at Nero. She did not intend to start a conversation with a cat, but given the situation that no other than the two of them shared, she was left with no choice but to satiate her curiosity by asking the question to the other party.However, Nero did not give her a reply right away so she no longer expected to get a response from the him. Yet, after a few minutes, perhaps out of boredom she still ended up asking Nero another question. She thought that her question would only fell in deaf ear just like before, but to her surprise, Nero answered her this time."If I were you, I will steer clear of her."Nero deliberately warned the girl."With all this transmigration thing going on, I am prety sure that there was no need f

When the next day came, Sabel was ordered by the head clan to bring Audrey to the main hall so without wasting another second Sabel came to fetch Audrey first thing in the morning. The first ray from the sun had just descended on the land from the eastern horizon when Sabe arrived on the manor. Learning throught experience, she already knew how to effectively wake up the other party so as soon as she got inside, she immediately headed to where the windows were and pulled its blinds. This in return allowed the sunlight to slip through the verticle slits of the blind and as it settled on the floor, specks of morning dust also started dancing along side it."Lady Audrey, your grandfather wished to meet you. He asked me to brought you this instant."Sabel deliberately spoke louder to make herself heard because apparently, Audrey was still buried beneteh the comfort of her mattress despite of her effort of opening all the windows and allowing all the light to get inside the

"My little girl."The old man said ever so softly as though he was afraid that his granddaughter would get scared if he would raise his voice even just for a bit."Grandfather..."Audrey replied then she smiled at him as sweetly as she could.Again, she tried to act as naturally as possible and purposely copied the behavior of the Audrey she has on her memory, who had a tendency to act cute whenever she was with her grandfather."HAHAHA!"When Johnson saw his granddaughter acting cute in front of him, he burst into hearty laughter."This granddaughter of mine never failed to amaze grandpa."The old man muttered under his breath as soon as he was done laughing to his heart's content.Audrey happened to look exactly just like her mother, Calantha, who just like what her name suggested was like a beautiful flower. But even though Audrey got her face to her mother, her character on the other hand was taken after her dad. She

After sharing the joyous air for the bout of a good half a tea's time, Audrey and her grandfather went back to their respective seat.When they had finally rested enough, that was the only time that Johnson had a chance to observe the black cat that her granddaughter brought with her.If his memory was not failing him yet, he believed that it was actually his first time seeing Audrey with a pet."I guess I still have a lot of things that I have to learn about my lovely granddaughter," he said while staring intently at Audrey, to which the other party only replied with a smile."Tell me, dear, where did you go last time? Why did you choose to sneak in the middle of the night, rather than asking our guards to escort you? Be honest with me. What are you up to this time?"The head clan inquired as he tried to sound as authoritative as he could, but the tenderness on his eyes betrayed his purpose.Audrey, on the other hand, felt warm inside when

"I am glad that you finally had your own contractual beast. Now we just have to wait for your cousin to get well and you guys will be ready to set off to Iridos."All of sudden, the old man mentioned a place that managed to ring a bell on Audrey's consciousness. She was not sure how she got to know the place before but she said,"Iridos??? Is that where girls and boys around my age were being sent to undergo strict training?"Audrey gulped down a mouthful of saliva after hearing the other party's plan because she did not expect to be sent away somewhere else again."Exactly, I am thinking of sending you and your cousin to this special school to learn magic.""Magic?!! But how?"Audrey blurted out in surprise. She was obviously startled when she heard the entirety of her grandfather's plan. As such, her emotion got the better of her and she failed to keep her cool.It was one thing to be sent to a training camp right after

Audrey was busy talking to her cat so she was not exactly paying attention to where she was going and was blindly walking as per her memory and just as when she was about to turn left at a corner, she accidentally bumped with someone. As a result, they both fell to the ground."I'm sorry..."She mumbled and as they got up.Sabel helped her up of course, but Audrey automatically dusted the other party's skirt just like what she used to do whenever she bumped into someone before."It's ok Audrey, I can just change to a new set of a dress. You don't have to trouble yourself over my dirty dress."A feminine voice that sounded like the jingling of bells registered at Audrey's ear and when she raised her head to meet the owner of that voice, she saw a familiar face."It seems like you're totally fine. I'm glad to see that you're not hurt."The lady added as she gave Audrey a once over. This lady was no other than Audrey's cousin, Sele

"Who gave you the right to question our young miss? You are just a lowly servant you don't have the right to talk to her! You insolent brat!"Sabel exclaimed in defense of her young miss.She was familiar with this kind of scenario since she used to work as Audrey's maidservant for the longest time.This kind of people who knew better than to hold their tongues was not enough to faze her young miss into making a personal move. So without waiting to be told, Sabel directly hit the girl straight on the face; sending a resounding slap to the audacious party.The slap was so hard that Sabel's hand seemed to leave a red handprinton the maidservant's cheek.She might be someone from the side family of an influential clan. But in this place, she was still a servant just like Sabel, and Sabel had already handled more than a handful of those brats before.Those ladies-in-waiting used to do things that would please Ling Hua so as to put themselv

“Now, where are we? Right, cooking.”Steffi changed the topic on purpose, before turning to her sisters.“I need the eye to check if it's ready, who has it?”“It’s around here, somewhere,”Meredith replied as she started to rummage through a pile of disorganized drawers. She felt obliged to respond since she was the last one to use the Magus Eye. Unfortunately, she forgot where she left it.“The last time I saw it, you put it in the utensils compartment, Meredith” Steffi insinuated using a lazy tone so the other party rebutted,“Don’t use that tone with my name.”Ariel on the other hand joined in this time to inform them that the eye was nowhere to be seen.“It’s not there this time.”After a while of contemplation, Meredith’s face lit up as she recalled something.“Aha! Steffi always put it in the dish cabinet:”And just like that, she found where her sister was hiding it.Consequently, the group found it interesting to watch how the three sisters could be talkative without having t

“I agree with Ariel. Why don’t we invite them over? This way, we could continue our chat there whilst they take their much-needed rest.” This time, it was Meredith who spoke and she deliberately told her sisters this. Nonetheless, she has spoken the words loud enough to be heard by others. The students, on the other hand, were beyond ecstatic when they overhear the ongoing conversation. But decided that it would be best not to allow their emotion to show on their faces. At this point, Meredith turned to the group and greeted them with a bow. “Let me apologize on my sister’s behalf. The thing is, it has been a while since we had visitors. As such, we are no longer accustomed to receiving guests.” She insinuated before she slowly approached the bunch of bewildered youngsters; careful not to bump her toe as she felt her way through the darkness. Her blindness was made obvious by her action and it made her appear pitiful to any onlooker. Truth be told, the Grae’s current act of displ

“Seriously, when will they stop obsessing over Cercei?”Tsking in annoyance, Steffi stealthily moved her slender fingers next to the Magnus Eye with the full intention of taking it back from her younger sister’s possession.“These people were getting on my nerves!”She purposely added this to appeal to her sisters’ sentiment so that their minds could focus somewhere else and they would not notice it once she started hogging the magic eye all for herself again. Meanwhile, her plan worked, as it always did. Ariel readily agreed to her and with a voice full of despondency, she said,“That’s how the mage community works. They fear what they could not understand and so they are set on destroying anything that they cannot control.”Ariel finished with an exasperated sigh. Meredith, on the other hand, could not help but clenched her fist as she was reminded of their good friend’s plight. Then with her brows knitted together, she roared,“The gal did not deserve all this hatred.”Meanwhile, t

On the flip side, rewinding the clock a tad, just a few minutes before Audrey’s group discovered that they unknowingly fall under a spell, the Graes were already watching them. “The eye! Who has the eye?” Meredith, the youngest, shouted at the top of her lungs. Steffi, on the other hand, stepped away from the giant cauldron before answering. “Over here. I had it with me.” She purposely put a safe distance between her and her two sisters before taking the eye out from her pocket. Afterward, she put the eyeball inside her empty socket. Meanwhile, Ariel, the middle child among the three sisters complained, “You again? You are always snagging our eyes by yourself.” “I know right? Give us a chance as well.” Meredith seconded. But Steffi only rolled her removable eye and mumbled, “Oh, shut up! Stop whining, it's because I have more use of this than the two of you combined.” Ariel no longer argued. But Meredith was different. “Give me that, it is my turn today.” She insinuated and

“But this was done in consideration of what was the lesser evil. News about how the petrifying monster has been terrorizing the Black Forest had already reached the ears of the masses and as a result, was causing mayhem among the people; both non-magic and magic practitioners alike. If it was not for that, the mage community would not make a move.” “Terrorizing, you say.” The Grae mockingly repeated Niccoli’s word that struck her noggin the most. Then with a contemptuous scoff, she added, “What an interesting choice of words considering that it was you, students, who made the first move against her. If you were to ask me, I think it is more accurate to say that it was the other way around. You all are the ones doing the terrorizing. You brought the melee with you and now that she retaliated, you turned her into a villain?” Everyone fell silent afterward but it was not because they were trying to come up with better arguments to refute the other party’s words. Rather, it was due to
REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch! Trouble heading your way
Audrey was on her dormitory bed when all that happened, and she was absolutely oblivious to the problem that was headed her way. Meanwhile, the results of the examination were announced on the third day. The students gathered around the square early in the morning and crammed in front of the announcement board to check their results. They also wanted to find out which class they had been allocated to. Niccoli dragged Audrey into the heavily obstructed crowd and finally came before the Herbalist Division’s announcement board. Niccoli immediately found their names, and as expected, both of them had obtained the highest marks for the test. They were also allocated to the Herbalist Division’s violet class for that autumn enrollment. Niccoli was also excited to see the name ‘Andrew’ written on the top of the list. Everyone envied her marks. “Andrew! You are the first! You are the first!” Niccoli was extremely surprised and held onto Audrey’s shoulder. He was very excited, and it was as i

[Alright, I must admit it’s my fault this time. My bad.] “As you should!” Ultimately, Nero acknowledged the part he played in inciting the agitated hut to action. But he also did not forget to let Audrey know that he did not appreciate her tone. [Needless to say, raising your voice is completely unnecessary. Besides, getting mad at me won’t change anything, will it? You’re kind of embarrassing me, just you know.] The cat tried to reason out but with her and her friends’ lives at stake and almost put in danger, Audrey did not back away easily this time. “Oh yeah? Then swear to me that from now on, you will be mindful of your choice of words. We have to be careful with every word we are saying because it was not every time that we got a chance to take it back.” Meanwhile, Nero’s response came shortly. However, it was so brief. Moreover, it did not sound sincere either. [Okay. I promised] So Audrey prompted the cat to state the matter precisely because she did not want him to circ

“What if the Graes already took notice of us as soon as we entered their perimeter and right now, we are under a spell; making our eyes play a trick on us? What if what we are seeing right now is not real?”“Well, if that is the case, then I guess there is only one way to check it.”Audrey insinuated and without wasting another breath, she said the passphrase."Turn your back to the forest, your front to me."Slowly, it dawned on the others as well what was possibly happening and so without waiting to be told what to do, they recited the same thing too."Turn your back to the forest, your front to me."They whispered into the air one after another and almost immediately, the landscape changed into something else, right before their naked eyes.Everyone watched with an awestruck face as the trees turned into fences. At the same time, just a few feet away from where they were standing, they noticed how an empty lot from moments ago started to morph into what seemed to be an inconspicuou
