Later that night, Audrey can be seen preparing herself for her secret mission. Nero was watching his master as he climbs to their bed.
[Little lass, are you sure you want to do it this way??]
"Yes, I have to. I can't just sit idly and do nothing about it. Especially now that I know that this is also related to me."
[Is it really worth it?? I thought you like to live your life as you want it to be? You said it yourself before that you will not allow anything to hold you back. That thing about the curse has nothing to do with you anymore. It is just the just part of the past of the previous owner of that body. The cursed child is not you, little lass. Don't confuse yourself with someone else. The cursed child is the 'previous' Audrey, not you.]
"I don't know Nero. I honestly don't know why, but there is something deep inside me that was telling me that I have to do something about it. I'm not sure if this was just the result of curiosity or if
As soon as she arrived at the doorstep of the Lee Clan's residence, Audrey immediately headed straight to the study room. Knowing her grandfather, she was sure that Johnson could very much likely to be still deeply engrossed with his books. There is no doubt that he was still inside his study room even at this time of the night"...PERNÓ MÉSA APÓ..."Audrey said as softly as possible. As much as she can, she wanted to proceed quietly inside the room.Sneaking into someone else household was madea lot easier by her knowledge in the way of magic. Though the spells that she learned from school, she can do a lot of things that could easily stump a normal person.Just like passing through concrete walls for example. Like a ghost, she can easily barge into anywhere and pass through the walls of a building as long as she used the PHANTOM SPELL.As soon as she cast this spell to a specific wall in the building, a ripple will appe
When Audrey saw the sadness in her grandfather's eyes, her heart broke into a thousand pieces. Her eyes swam in tears the more she looked at Johnson.She knew well enough that the reason behind those tears that he was trying hard to hold back is she.The granddaughter that left her dotting grandfather to follow her own will.The young miss of the Lee Clan who runs away to her responsibility to the family.All those feelings of pain and hate that she kept in her heart for thinking how selfish her family is for using her as a pawn for their pursuit of power, it all melted away.All those feelings of betrayal for thinking that the only man that she treated as her family is only using her to achieve his personal goals and selfish gains, all of them were replaced by longing.As she stared back at the old man who obviously loves her as a family. A FAMILY"I'm sorry---"Both the granddaughter and grandfather said at the same time.
Knowing that there is no chance for him to hide the truth anymore, Johnson decided to come clean.For some unknown reason, he felt like he owes Audrey the truth. As such he felt like he was compelled to tell her everything that happened 18 years ago."Your mother is a sorceress from Magus Academia, that is what I know. While your father used to be a great general from such a young age. Just like your brother Gaoyan.Your father was out to the borders of the kingdom all year round to chase away bandits and rebels. That is how he first met your mother. Your father used to be a patient to your mother who was a famed healer back then.She was not just a beauty but also a great doctor. With each healing brew that she concocts, one can be brought back to life even those that were in the brink of dying.That is why she managed to get the attention of the great warrior, your father. Eventually, the two of them fell in love with each other and that is
Over time, your mother managed to live a normal life healing wounded soldiers and sick people in the village in the countryside. Until he met your father and that is when she started falling in love again.She wanted us to give the normal life that you deserve. While she will look for the warlock to face him once and for all.She intends to defeat him and asked him to lift up the curse that he cast upon you. All we know is she went back at Magus Academia saying that it is the only place where she can definitely find the warlock who harmed you."Audrey listened carefully to Johnson's narration. Although it was long, she still tried her best to remember every detail about it.It was an achievement itself that she managed to listen to his long story without dosing off. Phew!But what really made her almost do a facepalm is when she heard the latter part of the story. When she learned that Magus Academia is the very place where they can definitely find the appre
[TCH! Little lass, Don't even think about dying. Erase those thoughts out of your brain this instant. Or else I will kill you, myself.]"HUH???!!!!"You just told me not to think about killing myself.Then on the next moment, you're saying at you will going to kill me yourself.Do you find it exciting that is why you want to try it yourself???Are you a psycho or something???[Don't give me that dirty look, silly girl. I can hear clearly what you are saying inside your mind! C' mon it was just a metaphor! If you die I will do my best to revive you then I will kill you myself to vent my frustration. I went on to the extent of burning a quarter of my life just to save you then you will just die for no reason?? Are you nuts??]"But what about the prophecy???"[Who are they to dictate your future?? You said it yourself before. You won't allow anyone to dictate to you how you were going to live your li
"Audrey????"Knowing the fact that Andrew is personally making his move just to get the information that they needed, Niccoli was left on edge.He cannot rest easy. Not because he did not trust Andrew, but because he was worried about his friend's safety.Andrew will be left fending on his own and will be acting alone. What if the Clan Head bare ill will towards him?? What if Andrew got hurt in the process?He cannot allow that to happen. Especially since he knew that the group is doing all of this to help him.So he followed Andrew secretly. Right the moment he left his manor up until he made his way towards the Lee Clan's residence in the middle of the night.He deliberately conceals his presence so as not to get in the way to the other party's plan. He patiently waited outside and observe what his friend is up to.When he saw Andrew was left unscathed and walked out in one piece after having a small talk for a while with the Clan H
"Audrey??? Just what are you up to??! Why did you disguise yourself as a man and stayed with us???""It is not my plan to stay with you guys. But I have no choice... I have to hide my identity so that I can escape my marriage. I just want to learn how to be a sorceress and live my life the way I wanted it to be. Who would have thought that I would meet you two again and got close to you in the process?? I didn't plan for any of this to happen. Believe me...""You disguised yourself and crossdress just to run away from your marriage with my brother??? Why?? What is so bad about marrying my brother?! He is a good catch! You won't find a man better than him!!!!""Hey, that's not the problem here. Focus!"Uhhghh!!! Here he is againNiccoli and his over out of the box way of thinking..Who cares about who is the good catch and the bad catch right now??The important thing here now is you find out that A
Other than that, Niccoli also has to worry now about how he should tread carefully around Audrey. After all, she was not just any other girl.He must consider his brother about how he will feel once he found out the truth. Once he learned that he knows the truth beforehand but he still chose to keep it as a secret to him Since she was also the girl that his brother was in love with.His brother's fiancee.Nike's soon to be wifeHis sister-in-law.It will never be the same."Let's head back to Iridos as soon as possible"Audrey said when the atmosphere was already less awkward."But how about our search with the apprentice necromancer?? I thought you will going to help me??"Niccoli was confused upon hearing Audrey's suggestion"Exactly. We will search for the apprentice necromancer just like what I promised you.""Then why do we need to head back to Iridos as soon as possible when we haven't accomplis
