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
REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch! A night out in the city
After the incident with Selene, Audrey decided to be more careful. She knew that it would be best for her if she could avoid any form of conflict.The last thing that she would want was to make an enemy and risk drawing more attention towards her existence.But at the same time, she alsoswore to herself that she would not let others bully her anymore.Definitely not in this life again. She had enough already.She also took it as her responsibility to live her newfound life happier and more meaningful.Before going back inside her room, Audrey called Sabel and issued a command."Sabel, I want you to prepare me and yourself a pair of clothes for commoners. You would have to go with me outside tonight. I wish to go and see the city."Meanwhile, when Sabel heard her young miss' plan, her eyes glowed with obvious anticipation.It was a rare opportunity for a maidservant like her to go outside the residence especially at night.

[ Let us just forget what we just heard. We can just pretend that we don't know where it came from right?]Nero suggested as he tried to think of a consoling word to say, but regardless, they still felt like they were somewhat duped.Audrey chose to ignore the lump that seemed to be threatening to come out from her mouth due to her newest discovery, and rather than dwelling on this fact, she focused her attention instead on what Sabel was eating. The other party was snacking on something that looked like Pringles."And what was that made of?"Learning from experience, Audrey became more cautious and went to ask Sabel first before trying out new food."Well, this one is some kind of tree bark. It was leisurely chipped away from a Cinchona tree"Sabel hurriedly chomped on her food and swallowed it so that she could answerer her young miss.Meanwhile, Audrey found the thing more acceptable to eat
REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch! The cursed child
Audrey and Sabel ate that night to their heart's content, and it was only when they already felt bloated did they stop and finally decided to give their eating spree a break.When they walked past a lake, Audrey decided to stop by. She walked towards a big rock at the lakeside and rested there for a while.The little girl could not help but feel awed by the blissful night in general. But when she lifted her head and saw the scattered stars above them, she felt more overwhelmed; to the point that she even let out a contented sigh without her knowledge.The night sky was covered with tiny little dots as though someone accidentally spilled diamonds all over it"This place was so relaxing"Sabel commented as she settled herself at the bed of grass next to her young miss. She looked at Audrey then back to the little black cat who was busy fiddling on the lake water."What a wonderful night. The cold breeze and starry night. Even the moon wa

When Audrey heard the word 'magic', she was reminded of the conversation that she had with her grandfather earlier that day. So she asked her maidservant about its opinion."Sabel, what do you think about learning magic?""It was common knowledge that learning the way of magic is a great privilege. They were highly celebrated wherever they went because not just anyone can do it. Not everyone is blessed with mana. Besides, one cannot simply enter the school of magic just because they wanted it. Money alone is not enough, you need to both have the natural talent on it as well as the backing. Having a magic practitioner or two within one's kingdom is a sure-ball way to secure the nation's defense and stability."Sabel answered with sparkling eyes as if she was talking about her lover. She had never seen one in her lifetime, but she had read countless books pertaining to their tales.[ It seems that it is for that same reason wh

[Distract them for me.]“Was it not only right for Steffi to get to use to eye whenever she feels like it?? I mean, she is older than the two of you so naturally, she was supposed to have more authority above both of you, no?.”“Ehhh… She’ll be fine. I’m the youngest so they should let me wear it more.” (Meredith)“The kid is right. The eldest should have the eyeball. She is a genius” (Steffi)Steve, on the other hand, seemed to get what Audrey was trying to do, so he said something that would surely add fuel to the fire.“But what about the middle child?

“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
