The Beauty Of Fragrance Chapter Introduction.
Since ancient times until now, the world has been divided into two distinct species. One is humans, which is the most populous species on Earth but small, weak, and easily killed when attacked. The second is non-human species, a general term for those who are born with appearances similar to humans but are not. For example, vampires, werewolves, witches...In general, as long as it's not a normal human, it belongs in this category.In this world, humans are the smallest and have no voice. Even important positions in the state cannot find anyone who is a human to fulfill them.It sounds like discrimination against species, doesn't it? But that was just the past, times have changed.The position of humans has changed thanks to an uprising 10,000 years ago. Due to oppression and unfair treatment, some humans stood up to resist. At that time, non-human species did not care about the war, more accurately, they did not bother to pay attention. They thought with their supernatural strength,
The Beauty Of Fragrance Chapter 1: Being bullied.
“Hello, is anyone sitting here?”Ciara was wearing headphones, focused on reading a book when suddenly someone touched her shoulder, making her jump. She took off her headphones and turned to look at the person who had just started talking to her.It was a very handsome guy, the kind of guy that many girls nowadays like. His most attractive feature was probably his lip and ear piercings.Ciara glanced around and saw that there were still plenty of empty seats in the classroom. However, without saying anything, she closed her book, grabbed her backpack and moved it to the side, leaving an empty seat for the handsome guy.Ciara hated sitting with strangers, but she hated talking to overly attractive people even more. Since earlier, there had been quite a few glances towards where Ciara was sitting, mostly focused on the handsome guy next to her.Throughout the class, neither Ciara nor the handsome guy spoke a single word to each other. This was also what Ciara wanted.Just as the class

Ciara stopped in her tracks. She stood there quietly for a moment before turning back towards Enda and saying, "I don't understand what you're trying to say." With that, Ciara didn't wait for Enda's response and continued walking forward. Enda didn't chase after her, instead, he slowly curved his lips into an arc. He looked up at the sky before glancing down at his watch and softly said: "There's plenty of time left." Regarding Ciara, she had to finish the remaining classes before leaving school. Even if she finished early, she still had to go to her part-time job instead of going straight home. Today is the same as before. Ciara's current part-time job is working as a shop attendant in a small convenience store, with wages paid hourly. She chose this job even though the pay is quite low because it is easy and does not require much physical activity, and most importantly, she has time to study. It just seems like tonight is not like any other day before. On normal days, the sto

Who could be coming to see her at this time of night? So, Ciara carefully peered through the peephole. It was the police officer who had been following her for several days. As it was already late at night and Ciara did not know why Officer Harris was there, she had no intention of opening the door. She stood inside and asked from behind the door, "It's so late, Officer Harris. What brings you here?" "Oh... We were just chasing a deranged werewolf who was attacking people in the nearby area due to the full moon. I was worried about your safety, so I came to investigate. If it's okay with you, may I come inside and check if he's hiding in there?" Officer Harris explained from behind the door. Lie! Ciara thought to herself. If there was an attack by non-human beings on humans, there would have been a commotion, and people would have rushed outside to see it since early on. Therefore, it could not be so quiet like it was at the moment. "Right now, I am perfectl

The cool breeze blew against Ciara's face in waves. She even caught a glimpse of a few birds darting past her and Enda.Ciara bowed her head and looked down at the glittering city, which now seemed so small. The towering skyscrapers, where she never thought she could reach the top floor, were now even more out of her reach than before.Yes, Ciara was being carried in mid-air, held by none other than Enda.The wind kept blowing against her face, making it difficult for Ciara to speak."Where are you taking me now?""To a safe place for you." Enda replied.Ciara didn't say anything else upon hearing this, she remained silent and tightly held the backpack in her arms. She didn't know if trusting Enda and following him was the right choice or not. But Ciara knew that she had no other option but to go with Enda.If she had stayed at her old house, the first thing Ciara would have to face is the interrogation from Harris' police comrades about the disappearance of that man.

"If I were you, I wouldn't be foolish enough to lay a hand on it."Ciara didn't know since when a disheveled man stood right behind her. His hair was silver-gray, with a full beard that he hadn't bothered to shave. His clothes were shabby, and his coat was haphazardly draped over him, with the hem dragging on the ground.Ciara's impression of this person can be summarized in a single word:Unkempt.The man seemed to be oblivious to the gazes of others as he looked at himself. He walked and yawned his way towards the desk. When he sat down on the chair, noticing the ink spill on the table, he simply flicked his hand, smudging the papers with ink, and dropped the bottle into the nearby trash bin."Sit down." He gestured to Ciara, commanding her to take a seat.However, when Ciara looked at the desk and chair in the middle of the room, she abandoned the intention to sit down. There was nowhere to place herself as it was cluttered with the clothes of this man right in front of her.Whethe
