At first, the painting was just like any other ordinary painting. It was not capable of doing anything. But Professor Sonny enchanted a spirit in the portrait using his ability in the practice of soul arts.

From then on, the lady in the portrait became his official guard at the passageway leading to his office. And from time to time, whenever he was faced with a dilemma or stumped over something, he would go and asked the other party out of habit.

"The Mystic Muses?? That won't work..."

Since Lilith is the founder of Mystic Muses as well as the ancestor of Delicia, it was indeed a good idea to start searching from there. But Professor Sonny was already aware of the fact that Delicia was the last direct descendant of the fallen deity, Lilith. So it would only be a waste of his time and effort if he would go there to look for another source of deity blood.

After all, those remaining members of Mystic Muses now were nothing but mere followers only. Each of them was indeed talented sorcer

    After almost half a month of seclusion, Professor Sonny started accepting guests again.He went on his usual duties as the Headmaster of Iridos and attended everything that he had neglected over the past few weeks.Everything resumed to how it normally was and all went on smoothly as if nothing happened in the first place.At the same time, Niccoli's pet, Luna, had also regained her consciousness right after a week.Exactly just like how Professor Sonny estimated."MEOW"[Little lass, when do you think I could meet Monami again??? I've been missing her like crazy, you know??]Nero asked his master for the umpteenth time.Well, he had been like that ever since he heard the news that Monami already woke up.But apparently, Monami was still inside the folded space and Niccoli never allowed the other party to go out since thenDue to what had happened to Monami back in the Land of Echurid, Niccoli became overly protective of his pet."Hmm...

    Truth be told, it was not just Audrey who was curious about Monami. Even Allan and the rest of their friends were also curious to know how exactly was Monami right now. After all, they had been together through thick and thins and brave different dangers just to help Monami in her recovery. But more than that, it was because Monami was also their savior.If it was not for the other party pitting herself against the army of the undead just to buy them some time to escape, she would not have landed herself to a precarious situation, in the first place. Which in the end resulted to her losing her consciousness for a long time.Niccoli's friends were also worried sick about Monami as much as he did. At the same time, they were also ridden by guilt by what happened to Niccoli's pet. That was why when they found out that the other party was already awake, they also wanted to see her right away.But for some reason, Niccoli did not seem to be fond of this idea. So as much as they wanted to

    "Niccoli, is there something we need to know??? What happened to Monami? Aren't she okay now??"Nike asked his brother further when he saw that the other party seemed to have a hard time expressing his thought. Niccoli's facial expression right now looked no different from someone who had just swallowed something nasty. His face contorted in different ways and it was like the words that he was about to say were stuck in the back of his throat"Niccoli, it's okay. If you really don't wish to tell us yet then so be it."Jace said after a while.But from the way he said it, it seemed that he was rather offended to Niccoli. Well, no one could blame Jace for feeling that way either. After all, it was indeed disheartening to know if a friend of yours was deliberately hiding something from you.The rest of his other friends felt the same way too. Of course, they all wanted to understand Niccoli's side. Maybe there was just really something that he could not disclose yet. Perhaps, there was s

    The interior of the folded space looked exactly the same just how it looked before when they purchased it.Niccoli did not alter to any of its design and leave it as it is.The place where they were currently at was an artificial room that was put inside a walnut-sized artifact.Yet despite that fact, the room inside the folded space looked no different from a normal room, although the one that they have right now did not have any door or windows at allIts walls were painted with the color of ivory white, making the room looked more spacious than it already was.The room was already spacious, to begin with. In fact, it could fit all six of them inside without them getting cramped.There was barely any furniture inside the room aside from a single wooden chair and bed, and it only made the place looked rather empty.On the corner of the room sat the single bed that Monami used during her recovery period.When their eyes finally landed on the bed, that as the only time that the group r

    After that, Monami's large body crawled out underneath the bed.Luna was currently in her beast form, that was why when she finally came out she stood towering over the group.It was also worth noticing that Monami's size right now seemed to be a lot bigger than her previous size before when they first saw her in her beast form.It was like Monami's size on her beast form at least got doubled if not tripled.She was so huge right now, to the point that even if Nero would try to transform in panther form right now and sat beside her, his size would be negligible compared to Monami.Much like a toddler placed next to a full-grown man.That was how huge Monami became."As you all can see, Monami became a lot bigger than she previously was."Niccoli said as soon as Monami came out for everyone to see."Isn't it a good sign for a beast to grow bigger??? For what I know if a beast grows its size, it only means say that it also became stronger, Isn't it???? Besides Monami is a form changing

    Nero could not believe it himself so while no one was watching, he decided to test the water and talked to Monami.Audrey and the others were busy listening to Niccoli as he told them what he had observed to his pet cat, Monami over the past couple of days.That was why no one paid attention to their surroundings and they were all oblivious to the big cat and small cat staring at each other at the corner of the room."MEOW"[Monami, are you okay???]Nero started the conversation by asking that question to Monami.But what Monami said afterward gave Nero another round of headache."MEOW"[&%$^#@&&*^$#!]"Huh???!""MEOW"[&%$^#@&&*^$#!]"MEOW"[Monami?! What are you saying you sound so foreign?!!!]Nero was bewildered when he realized that he could not understand a word from what Monami said."Nero??? Why? What happen??"Audrey asked her cat through their mental link when she sensed that Nero got increasingly agitated the more he talked to Monami."MEOW"[I'm not sure either, little las

    "Nero? Calm down. You should not be pointing fingers here. How could you be so sure that Professor Sonny had anything to do with this??"Audrey could not understand why her cat, Nero, was so sure about his opinion."MEOW"[Believe me, little lass, it was him! He had everything to do with this!!!]Nero reiterated his words with so much conviction in his voice as if he truly believed that his intuition could never go wrong."How could you be certain about it Nero?? He was the one who helped us, remember???"It was not that Audrey trusted Professor Sonny more than she could trust Nero' words.It was just that she was not the kind of person who would trust and believe blindly in someone's words of accusation over someone else. Even if that someone was her closest peer."MEOW"[Exactly?! He was the only one who touched Monami aside from us. It was not as if someone from us were capable of doing this to Monami, right?]"But it does not necessarily mean that Professor Sonny is capable of do

    “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
