“It took you 7 years to create your second <Imaginary Circle>, and 10 years to create your third," Tornian said quietly.
The young man shook his head in disbelief. "And compared to Julian and I being able to make our first circle when we were six, you can only do it when you are nine."
Tornian felt a little annoyed himself. All this time, he thought that his two older brothers hated him. He understood it was because their father had an affair with his mother and gave birth to him as an illegitimate child of the King.
And he had accepted that fact, really.
He felt their father treated the three of them fairly, and he was content with just their father's equal affection. But it seemed because he was given equal affection alongside his two older brothers, they both got angry.
That was why sometimes he deliberately refused the facilities his father gave him as a prince, t
Abby took a deep breath.She wanted to go home because she didn't want to live on the streets, but now she ended up on the streets anyway. Everything was ironic.Even though she had just earned so much money, why did she have to wander aimlessly like this in the middle of the night?Hotel. She had to find a hotel.But it was a bit of a shame to use the money she just got as compensation from Laurel Obsidian for renting a hotel room. She wanted to save more money. No, she wanted more money!She ended up choosing the cheapest and ugliest hotel she could find, and she stayed there for the night. However, Abby quickly realized that the lock on the hotel room door was very shabby, and so many strange noises could be heard from behind the thin walls.It was the cheapest hotel she could find, but she didn't expect that she had just entered a hotel used for shady act
Sir Marcus ran down the palace hall. Everyone who was going to greet him gave up their intention after seeing how in a hurry the man was as he carried a letter in his hand.He ran to the Emperor's office and quickly knocked on the door.“I am Marcus Citrine, reporting to the Emperor!”Without waiting for an answer from inside the room, he opened the door. He looked relieved that Ezekiel was also in the room with the Emperor.“Your Majesty, Your Highness,” he saw the father and son turn to him as soon as he entered. "Dame Padparadscha sent a letter from the east that she had found clues to where the Diamond siblings were hiding."Quickly, Ezekiel stood up. "Where is it? I'm leaving right now.""They said they saw a giant wyvern headed for the Spinel Mountains, Your Highness," Marcus replied.Ezekiel nodded quickly.
Since Harriet was still sitting on the couch.Seeing his wife, Liam started to circle around the couch to sit on the stool Zaha had occupied before.He looked straight at the woman who cast her gaze down, towards the wrist that Zaha had examined.That was when Liam gently tried to touch her wrist too."It's happening again," Liam said.“Yes… I thought after the first time this symptom wouldn't happen again,” Harriet muttered.Liam didn't know what expression to show Harriet. Right now, he didn't even know what his own facial expression looked like.He was very scared.Harriet still hadn't taken her eyes off the wrist Liam was holding, and the man was a little relieved that Harriet wasn't looking straight at him. Because clearly, his cold, hard expression was currently on the verge of breaking.
Harriet was acting strange.She didn't look sick, and she didn't look sad either. But she sat quietly in her room, avoiding everyone's gaze.If someone came and talked to her, whether it was their three teenagers, Zaha or Liam, Harriet wouldn't look them in the eye and would stare out the window, where cold air would pour in from that direction.All morning, Harriet said that she was very tired and weak.Lunchtime arrived soon after. Liam went up to their room with the tray of food he made with Zaha and Yelan and found Harriet still sitting in the same position on the bed, staring out the window."Madam," Liam called out to Harriet who looked lost in thought.The woman wasn't doing anything. She didn't read the romance books she used to enjoy in her spare time, nor did she study the letters from the Old Duke that had arrived yesterday.Sh
"I can see you!"Harriet shouted quickly. She focused on where Liam was talking and tried to look in the direction intently."Where did you look, Madam?"But in the midst of the darkness, Liam's voice suddenly appeared from another direction.Harriet flinched, confused and tried to look the other way.Liam had moved. Without a sound, he bolted to the front of the window and stood there. Harriet lied to him.No. More accurately, Harriet hid the fact that she couldn't see, and lied in times of urgency."You can't see me. Alright. Now we can't ignore this symptom, can we, Madam?” Liam asked in a cold voice. Now he understood why Harriet felt so angry when she heard he had rejected the Philosopher's Stone.This suffocating feeling of disappointment tormented him so much."We're not going to dela
Zaha Serpentes tried to remember what happened in that folk tale. And to help himself, he prepared himself paper and a brush.He took notes, anything passed his mind. He mapped the story he knew and anything related to it. He didn't know if it would add something to his guess.Long ago, ten suns suddenly appeared in the sky, burning the earth. No human could step in the strong direct sunlight, and everyone suffered.Plants died, animals died, and before long, people died too.In the midst of all that, 'Yayoi Lepus' a fictional young woman who was so beautiful, was concerned about the state of the earth. Her beauty was well known on the plains of Varanus, and it was said that even though there were ten suns in the sky, seeing her face would help to cool the surrounding.However, Yayoi couldn't do anything about the ten suns in the sky with her beauty alone.Bu
Knock Knock KnockThe door to the Gold Residence didn't open right away when Abby knocked on it. It was getting cold during the day even though the sun was still shining in the sky, so she tightened her cheap robe.Standing at the door, Abby wondered if she should knock again. She would make an excuse that she wanted to visit her sister today.She was about to knock on the door again but suddenly the door opened.A teenage boy stood in front of the door with a lazy look. "Who?"Unlike the teenage boy who didn't recognize her, Abby could recognize him. She spoke somewhat offended, “I-I'm Abby! You forgot that I'm Molly's sister?!”Abby was sure her face wasn't too basic or easy to forget. She was sure that it was because the young man in front of her was really stupid."You're looking for Molly? Why?" asked Yesha who was clearl
GRAB!"Kyaa!!"Abby screamed in surprise when suddenly someone grabbed her hand from the side. She turned her head to see Mrs Gold staring straight at her with her iris shining golden with anger.Abby didn't know if the golden light in the woman's eyes was a reflection of the light shining from the object in the wooden box… or if it was a cold light that radiated from her eyes directly. She was really shocked and scared.“Mrs—Mrs Gold! I-I'm sorry—I was… I was looking for you to ask something…!”Abby frantically tried to explain herself, but Harriet looked very displeased at her presence and snapped at her in a low, terrifying voice."Insolent. Who are you to enter someone's room without permission? Get out of here and never set foot in this house again."Harriet was very surprised when she ope
