There is a jarring pause in our conversation. I am unable to hear the room's inhabitants' joys or horror. I can only hear my own breathing, my heartbeat, and his deliberate motions. This person calls my entire plan into doubt in every way.

Without the assistance of the two young men, I'm starting to question my ability to even make this work, but this time, reality hits me square in the face. I was aware from the beginning that I couldn't carry out this strategy by myself. Because of how Auster approached me that evening and how I perceived his younger brother, I may have been fortunate.

I try my best to calm myself as I narrow my eyes. My hands, however, continued to be firmly clasped around the bottom portion of my dress. That's impossible. Even if he had before advised me to remain calm, this is the only chance I have to survive.

Perhaps I’m unaware o given that I haven't exacted justice on the crown prince yet. I can't possibly be this timid.

I inhale deeply and open my mouth, but

    Everything breaks apart in a quick second, and by the time I realized what was happening, my cheeks were covered in blood. My hands are trembling, darkness looms over me, and all I can hear are the yells of those who previously opened our door.My respiration is erratic, and so are my gazes. I don't understand what Xander did, but I'm fascinated about it and afraid. When he said that I would eventually witness some grisly views, he wasn't joking.He is blocking my view so I can't see what is going on in front of me.I can feel the blood on my cheeks when I touch them. Even though it's not my blood, I flinch at the sight. I look at the young man's face to confirm that he is still Xander, the person with whom I have a deal, but his aura is threatening. It appears to be a warning...danger... Although he is deadly, I am able to restrain him with a leash.Who exactly is this man?I'm not sure. I heard his expletive just as I am about to take hold of the lower part of his suit."Close your

    “Know what, exactly?”He pauses, his bloody eyes flickering and turning green, "These animals, these people, and me, we have something in common that you don't, and yet I still made you my companion." I wait for him until I become inflexible and almost leave my position if it weren’t for his words.“It just so happens that you were that person for the underground event, but I was able to flip it earlier, so whoever becomes my companion will be the golden price for it.”“Why did you strike a deal with them and what transpired earlier?”“It's not a deal, but it's like a custom,” he says as I hear him sigh. “Because some of the individuals you just witnessed at this event aren't actually humans," I enlarge my eyes.“What the heck are you talking about----?” The instant I hear him slam the walls next to me, I find myself unable to continue my sentence. I can now smell the blend of sandalwood and forest in his minty breath. Although intriguing, it sometimes confuses me."Listen to me right

    I discover that Xander had brought me to my room when I looked around the area. It is cold, so I pull his coat closer to my shoulder. I change how I'm sitting so I can view the book he gave me. It has a basic brown cover that is unattractive to anyone's eyes on the exterior.Opening the book reveals, however, that there are lines, illustrations, and even written words that I am unable to decipher.Possibly because they are so old, several of these handwritten documents appear to have been written with care. The paper's tidy yet worn appearance serves as evidence that the book's previous owner may have passed away. Still…-UGH!I feel pain in my head. It resembles splitting in half. There are certainly flashes of recollections that I have never before encountered, so I can't tell what is real or not. My head is still hurting. Even though my hands are trembling, I can hold onto my bed's covers until I am sitting on the edge of it.Fortunately, the throbbing stops when I support my head b

    The birds chirping on the branches, the sounds of the trees swaying together in the breeze, and how it relates to where I am right now as it makes a peaceful sight to behold. I can see the priest speaking in front of me while holding a book in his hand.Everyone is dressed in black, and he has a servant sitting next to him. Several people are covering their faces with a black veil because...The priest adds, "For the spirit of Lady Selmin from the Verine household to be allowed..." while he performs several ceremonies. Flowers and roses are being thrown on top of the coffin as it is slowly lowered to the ground.Before soil promptly descended on her case, we provided the lady some quiet solitude. I'm told to stay in my seat while the parents I've known in previous life converse with their friends. I've given it a lot of thought, and I'm curious as to why the people I met before I died didn’t even cry.Even the Lafera family's close relatives refrained from crying, even though their ch

    “Because it has come to this, I reasoned that since we are still considered to be humans even if we’re not, we still need to eat, so I got some food and---" a very familiar voice suddenly burst into my head, but the young man stops speaking as I heard him gasp.A pair of warm and cool hands slide toward my cheeks as I turn to face the young man, causing me to fix my eyes on Xander.He says the words that cause my eyes to expand, and I can see him sneer at me."You're definitely wrecking our moment, Zei," which causes me to furrow my brows.Zei? This time, I'm positive the voice I heard was from Valen. However, is Zei this person's true name?“My eyes, Xander—will you maintain your positions?” The young man continues, "It's already making me worry about Lady Solstice,” and I can even hear him sigh.I know for a fact that it wasn't a coincidence that he approached me that evening. He knew about me.I am not forewarned about him because he is one of Xander's accomplices.This circumstanc

    “Milady, be careful! Alright!” As I travel to the place where Xander gave me the information the previous evening, Kaylla, Linia, and May wave to me from my carriage. The only maidservants I've seen so far are these three, so the others may have been busy, but that didn't stop me from waving and grinning at them through the carriage's window.I didn't sigh until it appeared that I couldn't see the household anymore. My eyes narrowed as I lean back against my chair.I look at my hands once more, and they still appear steady. My hands only start to tremble when I sense danger or when it is already present in front of me.Even the way Xander portrays Zeiron makes it bloody hell to talk about, yet I managed to maintain my composure while listening to him relate his narrative, and the only reason is that I became his accomplice, nothing more.The horseman manages to direct me down toward the temple, "Milady, we are already at the temple." and leaves right away when a priest materialized in

    When I turn to face him, the smirk instantly vanishes from his face. My back is once more against the wall at that point, but this wall is not frigid; rather, it feels hot for some reason. With both hands, he corners my head, and I can see how he narrows his eyes. I can smell his fresh mint breath as he leans his face closer to mine. My face starts to feel warm at that point, and I'm unable to take my eyes off his stunning green eyes. "Is that what you're asking me, am I not influenced by the sun, and this damned temple?" He sneers, and I acknowledge it with a nod that matches the ferocity of his look. Heaving a sigh after I see him nod simultaneously. Even though I can feel my hands not shaking, I didn't care that his hands were already scratching the wall next to me. It implies that this time, with this person in front of me, I'm secure. I lift one eyebrow and lean in closer, "You're not even scared of what I might do to you." This time, I had perfect control of the situation bec

    At the words he said, I tense up. I can't help but furrow my brows in anticipation of more information, but instead, he moves from our position and stands, leaving me by myself to kneel and stare at the chilly floor. "I need an explanation, Xander, and what you just said has only fanned the flames further!" I say, "I'm trying to mend myself," and I don't care if anyone hears us right now because all I'm trying to do is catch this young man's attention so I can finally ask him the questions I want to hear him answer. I catch him sighing and fidgeting with his hair before he starts cursing again. “Once again, I guess I have no option." After speaking those things, he draws me closer to him, and then he whispers something in my ear that almost made me feel lightheaded if it weren't for my want to get his answers. "I've been cursed since the time I was born, and I'm not lying when I say that, but the reason I'm still alive is that I'm not a vampire like you believe I am." “You aren't?

    I never imagined that this particular event would be used to further their integration into my life. It only makes sense that since I met them in this extremely risky way, they would eventually become more than just friends to me.I recognize a deep, low voice that says, "Let this young woman go, Xavier," which turns out to be Terion, a young man. His eyes and hair were both green. He continues to sigh while keeping his eyes fixed on me.When he finally turned to face the men next to him, he asked, "Does your heart race like mine when you've seen this lady?" while still holding his chest. They all appear to be looking in my direction as I watch them all nod in response to his query.As soon as he remarked, "You are indeed someone that we can't predict, now off you go," he opened the closed door and pushed me away from them.My eyes enlarge, yet I get a strange feeling about them. I'm not sure why, but out of nowhere, I experienced a strong pang of nostalg

    I was aware that everything happens for a purpose, but doesn't the fact that these three got lost while searching for a stunning maiden simply lead their family to worry?I find myself sighing. They needed to be saved.They appeared frightened as if they had encountered a ghost by the time I had already spoken to them.Yet they appear expensive and descended from a noble family based on their attire.“Oh, sorry about your ---”Since I initially felt that they were superior to me in some way, I was about to apologize to them.Since the moment I was born, they have worn fine clothes that I have never owned. But it seems that I only admire them from a distance.I suddenly realized when I looked at my clothes that they were still valuable despite not being as pricey as the ones these three are wearing.It's because of my mother, who even attempted, to give me this clothing. I was aware that, for the time being, I could

    I instantly made it a point to illuminate the red light with that, and by doing so, I spoke of the final spell I had previously learned. I utilized every last bit of my might to do this.I've known this spell for as long as I can remember. The spell of reformation.Then, after a few more seconds, the red glow that had been enveloping the dark, stormy clouds started to become white. At this point, I had no idea that I would be crying so much.When I do, the creature that had been claiming to be the real thing has already vanished into the light, and I can see Ravia's smile when I look at the true soul behind it.Her final words before disappearing with this great light were, "At last, I'm freed, thank you."I've already ascended to the highest point in the sky when I look at it. However, when I glance below, the Alchemist and the high priest are already in its grasp, along with the others, and its bright light has already pierced through their heart

    “Lily, we must visit that location now or never; I must face...”“Before you leave, Solstice, I must tell you something.” I had no idea that Lily would suddenly say something that would almost make me reconsider everything.Before I can blink, Claudius' warm hands are resting on top of mine, and I notice a softer version of his previous smile.As soon as we were ready, we instantly teleported to the location where everything was happening, and before my very eyes, I witnessed my allies and enemies squaring off against one another.The only distinction is that they are already focused on me.When the Alchemist said, "Well if it wasn't the missing Wiccer, too bad that you're not the real anymore," I couldn't help squinting my eyes.I've witnessed a lot of things pass away in before my eyes, and this time I won't allow it to happen again because in the past I was unable to pass away.I stared at the Alchemist and

    “We need to move right away as I noticed a bright red light illuminating the area of the sky where Lily is forcing us to perform.”“We have to act this way for no reason.”“We had to project the same thing because we couldn't just envision something like this. We had to move as quickly as we could before anything got in the way.”“What do you suppose this is?” I enquire "This is the holy trinity, Solstice," and Lily merely groaned in response.I've mastered that spell in the past, and I did it just before I was laid to rest in my casket. Three things must happen for one to eventually change the entire universe to their liking.When I was younger, I wanted the world to be informed and free from damage if I couldn't pass away. But it appears that as time has passed, that wish is fading.It has been put to the test throughout time, therefore I assume it has a shelf life.I couldn't help but

    Even though we were already getting close to our goals, I didn't even hesitate to do that one thing when I knew he would be that way.Ravia might have been easily killed at that point, but I knew better.Even if we succeeded, a member of my ally would have to give his life to accomplish that goal, and I cannot permit that to happen.Not after I had already saved him from the fall.I sigh as I glance at Claudius sitting next to me. I finally succeed in starting a fire after we are inside of this cavernous area.I couldn't help but caress this young man's face and hair as his head rested on my legs while I stared at him. As I ask Caslian about this place he made, we were in this location just a short while ago.Even though Claudius had already stopped bleeding from his mouth, he was still tossing and turning in his sleep.It seems as though he had a nightmare.

    Before anything further could happen, I grabbed Claudius by both cheeks to feel his warmth. His sweet gazes and loving nostalgia are palpable to me.For the sake of our reunion and preserving her, we shouldn't be calm, but I couldn't even imagine myself not acting in this way.As soon as I recognized the Claudius I had met and who had since entered my life, I hugged and kissed him.Aside from Celius, he was the first to cause me this much anxiety.I can see that the two were able to render Levine asleep by the time the dazzling light had already vanished.I can see nothing except us and Claudius' improvement when I glance around. I couldn't help but focus my vision to look for the alchemist.Zeiron, however, had already replied, "He escaped after that light came out of nowhere," as I was about to ask the two.I managed to say, "I see," at the door of this facility without even batting an eye.When I turn to face Claudius again,

    Since I am unable to deny that we are currently in the devil's den, it didn't even take longer when I moved.We already had to deal with the Alchemist, the devil that the two conspirators had. We were surrounded by these creatures in this enormous hall, which reminded me of the imperial family's ballroom.Although they are all donning black and white coats, some of them were simply donning experimental attire.I merely narrowed my eyes because I couldn't even feel the want to throw up at this moment. I couldn't help but wonder about Claudius when I turned to glance around and noticed that my fellow soldiers were acting similarly.You all came here this time, so. The Alchemist laughed, and Celius was the one who started the attack. "Oh, too bad I only had one creature I claimed last time, but this time, I guess it would be many now," he said.Then I was followed by Zeiron.
