The horse moved as soon as Seolurrie was sitting on its back. She was having a hard time balancing herself and the horse was moving making her almost fall. The horse neighed as if it was complaining and Seolurrie tried to calm it down by patting its side.
The horse calmed down, but now her problem was how to get the horse to move. She read how a book on how to horse ride back when she was still locked up in her room, she tried to follow the instructions. She used to just picture herself doing it while reading how, but now she can do it realistically.
She squeezed the horse using her inner thighs and the horse started to walk, although she made it, she was swaying side by side almost falling every time the horse moved it. She led the horse to the road by pulling the reins gently in its direction.
She thought that being jerked around by the mouth would be very uncomfortable and so she gently pulled the reins to right and left.
She successfully made it to th
"Dad"Seolurrie couldn't bear the mixed emotions inside her. Her knees wobbled and unknowingly kneeled. She tried to stop the tears from flowing by covering her face, but it didn't work. Her tears fell like waterfall.She was trembling while kneeling in the ground, recalling all the memories she got. In the past, she was unsure if these are her memories, but now she didn't doubt it anymore. These were her memories from her childhood. Even though her memories overlaps, she knew that the memory of her locked back in that room and the memories she was recalling since she was transported to the world of humans were all true. It was like the memories of two souls overlapping.She saw someone kneeled in front of her and she raised her gaze to look at the man who was her... father.***The General ran to Seolurrie as her knees sank to the ground. Soon after he reached her, he didn't know what to do. He kneeled in front of her and stared. As their ey
"Wait. What's happening?!"The sparks are completely sucked into her body and she felt a powerful energy deep inside her. She looked down at her body, feeling the new energy inside her. She smiled and was about to celebrate when her body suddenly shook and she started to feel an intense pain all over her."Ahh!! W-what..."She fell down to the ground and layed there, curled like a ball while groaning. She opens her closed eyes and saw the necklace in front of her. She grab it quickly and ordered,"Seal it."And the magical energy that was sucked into her was transfered into the necklace and the pain she felt a moment ago was gone like it was never there before. She sat on the ground, wiping the cold sweats that she got earlier."I guess my body couldn't handle the powerful energy. It's a good thing luck was on my side."Seolurrie didn't have any idea on how to unseal and seal her magic energy from her necklace, but after r
"Seolurrie. Do it."The General had a solemn look and she couldn't do anything, but run to the headquarters. She ran fast and with all her might.As soon as the door was at her reach, she slammed it open and shouted,"All available soldiers, head to the entrance of the mansion! Now!"She didn't have the time to worry about General Bennett and just bluntly ordered everyone in the room. Her forehead creased because they didn't react at her orders. A man wearing the uniform of a soldier in this world walked leisurely to her. He had an intimidating aura around him."And who are you to yell to the honorable soldiers of the Tower of Crystals. Under whose order are you dispatching every available soldiers in here?"Seolurrie looked down, her body trembled not because she was intimidated nor scared, but because of the growing anger inside her. Just like what happened when she was irritated by Hunter Alexa, a mysterious powerful magic energy su
"It's good to see you again, Little Seol."Seolurrie frozed after the head mistress said her name. She was confused on how did the head mistress knew her and why did she called her little Seol when they met just now."Huh?"The head mistress smiled at her and closed their distance. The head mistress held her hand at Seolurrie and although confused she took it. She pulled Seolurrie up and stared at her, admiring her."Umm, excuse me? Do I... know you?""Haha."The head mistress laughed softly and declared,"I am your grandmother. Looking at your confused face, you must not remember me. Your making me sad. We were so close when your were still a child wetting her bed."Seolurrie's cheeks redened at the head mistress' words. The other people who were with them tried to stop theirselves from laughing."I guess I have to introduce myself."The head mistress placed her right hand on her chest, but only her fingertips an
"I can wait for you for another century, my queen."Seolurrie was stunned when she heard a voice in her head. She stared at the crystal and smiled, tears almost fell from her eyes. She gasp and held her tears back after remembering that her grandmother was with her.Drelia narrowed her eyes at her grandchild before walking to her. She placed her hand on her shoulder before pulling her to the railing and shouting,"From today onwards, the keeper, Seolurrie Griffin, will be stripped from her position as a keeper and will start her training as a protector of the Infinity's Crystal! By my name, Drelia Griffin, as the headmistress of the Tower of Crystals, I order you all to treat Seolurrie Griffin as a new protector!"The headmistress's voice vibrated not only inside the tower but inside the whole town. The people became eager to meet the new protector but that wasn't the only reason. The other reason was because the new protector was assigned exclusively to
Seolurrie arrived at the orphanage before it was dark. The kids were so happy to see her. She stopped by the town to buy presents for the kids earlier. She gave it to them and their faces glowed. It made Seolurrie happy to see the kids joyful faces when they saw her gift.The headmistress gave her some money for her allowance and since she doesn't have anything to do with it she just gave it to Sister Sunny. Her father also gave her the money for the orphanage's next month's budget."Thank you so much. Now we have more than enough money to save for the winter.""It's nothing, really. I'm sorry for not going home last week.""It's not like you wanted to. I'm sure you have your reason for not going back.""Yeah, I will tell you everything about it later.""No. Do it tomorrow. I am sure you are tired from your ride. You can rest for today and tell me tomorrow. Are you going back to the capital tomorrow?""No. I am free tomorrow so
"... The headmistress will be here tomorrow with the generals and the protectors. They will meet the dragon and finally answer our endless questions and quench our confusion"The children cried out their excitement. Despite the children's enthusiasm towards the upcoming event, Seolurrie didn't feel the same. She was more worried about whether or not the dragon will let them leave alive once they arrived on its nest."When will they head to the dragon's nest? You said that they were coming here tomorrow?" Seolurrie asked."There is nothing written here about when they will travel to the nest. But I think they will prepare eveything tomorrow and head out the next day?" Sister Sunny answered with uncertainty on her voice."This town is located near the dragon's nest, right? It's too far from the Capital and it is the most outer town.""No. The dragon's nest is still far from here. Beyond the mountain range was a magical field. You have to pass i
Seolurrie and Selmish fell asleep after their long talk. It was already morning when they finished telling stories and exchanging information, the sun was up in the sky before they both dozed off.Back at the orphanage, the head mistress with the generals and the few selected protectors arrived before the sun was awake. The townspeople were causing havoc at their arrival. And because of that they couldn't make the town as their camp site, not like the headmistress was planning to camp at the town.She already prepared everything as soon as she read the report about the dragon's movements from the townsfolk.They ride to the orphanage to have a talk with the former head keeper of the Tower of Crystals, Sister Sunny."It has been a while, Sister Sunny." The headmistress greeted the old lady."You don't need to act so formal to me. We were so close back then." Sister Sunny smiled."To be honest, we are in a hurry. So, I wanted to discuss
Seoliel's eyes widened when General Griffin hugged her, but what surprised her the most was the next thing he said. "I'm so glad you are alive." General Griffin tried his best not to cry but his tears just streamed down his cheeks. Seoliel looked at her father's back thinking how he knew that she was his daughter. Her gaze turned towards the others. They seemed like they heard what General Griffin just said because of the look on their faces. "What is he talking about?" Drelia frowned at her son's sudden words and actions. She still wasn't able to realize that the woman General Griffin was hugging was actually the former Seolurrie. President Carlton and Mr. Ambrose stood there, the both of them were staring at
Selmish looked towards a certain direction and chuckled under his breath. It hasn't been ten minutes since Seolurrie was gone and he was already feeling an incredible magic force that felt like it was slithering all around the world at a very fast pace.Selmish knew that Seolurrie was back and as Seoliel at that. He instantly knew because of the magic energy he was feeling.'There are no one else except you who could wield Infinity like that. You're back, Seoliel.' Selmish thought.Selmish was so happy and buried deep in his thoughts that he didn't realize that Drelia was already staring at him.Drelia stared at Selmish for a couple of more minutes thinking what might he be looking at and then came to a conclusion. She followed t
'Where am I? I feel like I'm floating. This place...just what is this place. I feel cold but at the same time I feel hot. I can't breathe, but I'm not suffering, in fact I feel more alive than ever.'"You're in my domain, Seolurrie."Seolurrie slowly opened her eyes when she heard the gentle and caring voice. It was an endless darkness. That was what Seolurrie saw after opening her eyes."Am I dead?"She noticed that she didn't feel anything, and that she was literally floating."Yes and no.. The ceremony started just as your heart stopped beating. You are now dead. Your heart has stopped beating, but that was all physical. You died, but your soul is still alive
Just as Seolurrie expected, all of the magic sealing devices President Carlton used to block the gates broke and thanks to her plan of dispatching the hunters in the location of the gates, the damage that would have cost many lives and destruction of structures were suppressed. As soon as Mr. Ambrose finished his job he immediately went at the location of the massive portal and where he parted with Seolurrie. He could barely go near the place for he could not bear the thick air surrounding the field and made it hard for him to breath. He watched everything, from the moment the massive portal opened, when the mysterious man appeared and the moment Seolurrie and the man clashed. He watched as Seolurrie successfully landed a blow to the man and became anxious as he sent her flying back. The Organization President arrived and stood beside him when Seolurrie and the man seemed
Seolurrie strolled towards the place where she slept and grabbed the leather straps along with her new short swords. She wore the leather straps and glanced at the massive dark portal. It crackled with a scarlet light like a lightning. She glared at it as she sauntered towards its front. She can feel the incredible dark magic increasing and burning her skin at every step she took. She stopped right in front of it and reached her hand to try and touch the massive dark portal.Her hands weren't even touching the surface of the massive dark portal when she pulled back and jumped away from it. The massive dark portal crackled more and the dark magic coming from it doubled as its surface cracked. The massive dark portal started its opening phase. Seolurrie put her guard up more than she ever did as she watched how the massive dark portal cracked more. She waited and waited watching her surroundings for any abnormalities. But nothing
"Seolurrie is... dying." He said, while looking at the headmistress.He haven't spoke a single word since earlier when General Griffin came and made him antsy. Aliza halted after hearing Seolurrie's name. She felt a mixture of extreme anxiousness and shock. Since the last time she had a talk with Seolurrie, Aliza felt inferior to her, but at the same time she looked up to her. She didn't want to admit to herself that she treats her as her role model and started abusing the power she holds and the authority she gained.She now felt the thick air and felt suffocated. It became harder and harder to breath and she clutched her chest trying to ease the pain. Drelia was also stunned, but unlike Aliza she immediately pulled herself together even with the anguish that was slowly eating her whole. She pulled Aliza towards Selmish and her son.
"Okay." Selmish agreed to Seolurrie's request. It might not be wholeheartedly, but he can't think of any other ways to solve this problem."Thanks. You can go back now. I'll jut go home by myself. I also want to visit those employees in there." She pointed at the Monitoring Teams.He just nodded as he walked away. Seolurrie understood why he did that. He doesn't want to get any attention now that he was leaving. After he got in away in a reasonable distance he open a portal and was gone.Seolurrie watched him go back before heading to the Monitoring Teams. They were shocked to see her, but still didn't forget to pay their respects. Seolurrie didn't smile unlike how she always did and they became nervous."You should all pack up and go home. It will be troublesome if you got caught in
"It's a trap." Selmish said seriously at Seolurrie.Seolurrie stared at him for a while before smiling. Selmish became confused about why was Seolurrie smiling."What's with the smile? I told you that's a trap!""I know.""What?! You knew that it is a trap?!"Seolurrie laughed how surprised Selmish is. He glared at her for making fun of him and released his magic energy."Hey, hey! I said don't release your magic energy right?!" Seolurrie waved her hands in front of him, but it made him want to tease her more. He released more of his magic energy. "Alright, alright! I'm sorry. I'll explain it to you, okay?!"Selmish withdraw all of hi
Max was concealing his presence as he crept up to Seolurrie who was looking around trying to find him. He jumped at her, but he didn't expect that Seolurrie felt his presence already. She looked behind her and saw Max pouncing at her.Before Max could land an attack at Seolurrie she shielded herself from Max's dagger using her one of her short sword. The pressure from the collision of the two weapons was too much that both of their arms trembled and it made a clashing noise.The hunters who were now removed from the battle field by the Organization employees was watching Max and Seolurrrie with awe."Both of them are using daggers?!""No. Hunter Seolurrie is using short swords and Hunter Max is using daggers.""Really?!"
