I've already crossed a whole city by walking to and fro in my house. "So you're saying... Haiban gave you a weak body to make you useless for the moon's purpose?" "Yep," he said while caressing his wolf, sitting uncomfortably like he's stuck in a box. "Because the moon will use her silver wolves to exterminate her children? You knew she would do this all this time!?" "Yep." "Why didn't you tell me!?" "We're both occupied by our own issues, there was no room for more until I forgot about it when there's room available." I plummet my butt on the couch. "You got a point," I agreed. These issues have been scrambling my mind and time. Although I can only solve them one at a time... without taking a break! "Why do you have to cage yourself in there?" Ever since we heard the moon's force call, he imprisons himself inside the cage I made, together with his wolf. "Dan! I don't want to hurt you again unconsciously! The moon will use me against you. She told me to 'kill them' and I co
I dislike the look on the priests' faces. "It means that the moon withdrew our authority to use her power. The blame is yours, Moon Priestess! If you did not disrespect the goddess, if you aren't too inclined with your emotions, this will never happen! You always act on your own, vaunting about your scholarship. This is why women shouldn't be privileged in mages. Too dramatic! You are no different from your fraud friend!" "Nonsense!" Manjiro exclaims unexpectedly. "Don't put the blame of your goddess's will on my friend!" The young priest takes the right to speak too. "She deserves what she has done. That enchantress brought nothing but trouble to this profession. And it is her fault why the wolves and people around her are affected by her blasphemy! Everything she does is for the satisfaction of her desires!" Then Linly couldn't hold her tongue anymore and stood up firmly. "My aunt is doing this for the whole werewolf race! She's doing the real job of a moon servant, someone who
I stepped on the riverside and enchanted my dress to make it dry again. There's no way back for me to the real world except through that door or with Lanasia's guide. But in this instance, I'm on my own! I should've known he's dangerous. His bright smile overshadows the darkness within him. He's unforgiving... "Now I know from whom Hessuel inherited that attitude!!" I kick some grasses, uproot them, and repeatedly throw them in the air as I scream, "How could he trick me with his mosquito jokes!? Why is everything and anyone delaying my ambition! I hate this progress..." I held my head afterward while refreshing my chest. The lock of my belt clunks out of the blue which is not supposed to be a bad sign, but only bad timing. We've altered the rightful time of the universe and tragically advanced events that aren't supposed to happen now. It's aching. And my legs feel slightly stiff. Tiredness is dragging me to my knees but I just propped my hands on my knees to overcome the weight.
"No, wait, Elibur! He's powerful even without his spellbook!" I warned, but then I squirm in pain. "Strange," Haiban mumbles, "the moon isn't calling anymore. It seems whatever I do next is solely my decision." He's right. And I'll never notice that until he mentioned it. What could've happened with Linly? After the brief silence, an enchast rapidly expands from Haiban's toes to the whole city! The ground sprouts grasses—the same grasses in his world, the shade of the super moon turns to light, and the air suddenly feels cold— "Aaah!" I hold my baby bump tight, the belt is already disjointed, and my back is getting even stiffer. "Wait! Wait, I need a moment of silence!" I screamed in the middle of silence. However, Haiban folds his sleeves up and exposes the book tattoos on his arms, then manifests another 4 spellbooks with both hands. "I told you, my child, you're delivering the worst to yourself," he said. The terrifying rumbling sounded from afar, then all of our jaws dropped
Acro follows along the way as ordered by Hessuel. She enlarges onto a giant bird wherein I can hop on for a ride midair. Most white wolves are lying dead on the ground of Asfara. I was struck with terror because of the loud screech in a house, one girl jumps through the window to escape from something. I thought of saving her until she collapses on the ground all of a sudden, Acro doesn't want to land either. But what's going on? Acro is flying higher until I found Zaeramil sitting above a cloud, long stairs are spread abroad the sky and there's Lanasia too, standing on a stair. Acro shrinks above the stair and I landed safely. She's wearing weird eyeglasses, when she lent me another one, it's an enchanted item to see what the naked eyes can't. There's something on the ground; holding a silver scythe, faceless, wears a white cloak and silver knight armor, is tall for about 10 feet, and gaunt. It disappears from visibility after a few seconds after Lanasia fired it for the second t
"Yes, master... Understood..." the maid said over that telegram. She's the same maid, clad in a black and white dress, who screamed before our presence. The other maids serve the foods on the table for us as this maid reports in front of me, "Our master is on his way here to address your concerns. In the meantime, he doesn't want hungry visitors before he arrives. Please." Her following gestures invite us to dig in. The sight of these foods served recoiled my pride. Plus, I haven't eaten anything in a while! "The maids are here if you need anything else," the maid said before leaving. Their hospitality swayed after I used my enchantment a while ago. Thieves turn into expected visitors. This is the same house where I live, but the modernity of the vicinity makes me sensitive. Skepticizing regarding these strange people in my house, I fork a piece of meat and taste it. The food doesn't seem to be fake. Which could mean this house isn't beautifully fabricated by Haiban. I slam the fo
"This toy is too complicated," I complained and dropped the technology on the mini table. "You weren't born when it was born, that's why. We all have timelines," Andrew reasons out. I'm running out of options. Their technologies aren't capable of taking us to our proper time. Every method I could plot about can only be done and—technically—can only be possible with my spellbook. Thoughts of my twins and mate who were left behind are torturing my patience and sanity. May the God of humans save my mind now that my goddess is depressing me! I stood up blankly and requested, "Let me meditate about it... Alone... In the spring pool." "... Sure," he mimics my lowly voice. Then he ordered Ruth to assist me. The way to that spring is the same, the only changes are the doors with necessary beeping sounds or code that Ruth unlocks to open them. But on the right side of the way to the spring is a dim hallway of 7 rooms on both sides. At the end is an open lamp. "What are these rooms for?"
"Me?" "Yes, you. Who're you again?" "I'll tell this to Andrew," he said to the guard, speaking cold as always. He takes me inside his office nearby and opens an automatic door using a card. "You have not forgotten my face except my name? I'm Afvshaganifs, kids call me Avi." I clap my hands slowly while staring at him. This generation made the filthy pirate gloom; he looks like a thirty-year-old decent man in a black suit, curly hair tied behind, shaved beard with few mustaches left, and an ax necklace. "What has this era done to you?" I praised. "You're in love now?" "I'm proud, not in love." "What brings you here?" "Haiban brought me here! I was with Andrew for help and he lost me. I'm looking for a mage who can help me and here you are, the end of my wandering. Can you use your spellbook? Because I can't." "Yes, you can't, lady. I hold the main source of enchantment in my spellbook found in the academy." "Then cut the crap and let me use my spellbook to return to my time
If you’re here because you’ve finished reading the book, you have my deepest gratitude. To anyone who gave their best to read this book, in any legal way (or not through a 3rd party beneficiary), I salute you. Will there be a book 2? -None. Please? -No. This is the end of Hessuel & Dandeline’s story. Seriously, I just tried a werewolf genre and finally proved to myself that this isn’t my cup of tea. We Asians prefer vampires. *chortles* Will the twins have their own book? -No. They will stay kids in your imagination. Will Hrista & Andrew have their own book?-Yes. Their book is part of the contemporary romantasy series I’m building. Which means this book is a side story of that series. It wasn’t the plan at first, this was planned to be a stand alone book, but midway I fell in love with the characters of this book & decided to connect them to the universe of this beloved series. I have big dreams for this series & I want this book to be part of it. Meaning, some of the scene
At the hotel, I remove my outer garments and tight clothes, loosen my shirt and lie down prostrated on the huge bed. All night digging for the newlywed's honeymoon isn't real! I'm too tired throughout the preparation and the whole day of the great day! Dandeline is taking her time in the bathroom and I nap while I wait.But, my waiting took longer than her time inside the bathroom, the squint of sun rays was coming inside the room already! I fell asleep facing her, she fell asleep facing me. I stare at her face for a while, then reach for her nape and hair. She woke up with my touch."Hey…""Why didn't you wake me up last night?" I asked."You seem so tired I don't want to disturb you, so I postponed my plan." She stretches her arms and thighs shortly.
I still woke up late when I am supposed to be the one waking up early! A folded bathrobe is prepared underneath my feet. Wearing that, I squinted in the living room and found Hessuel getting himself ready to leave while holding a bouquet."Where are you going?"He is too occupied. He turns his face to me before looking with his eyes. "I have an errand~"I skip steps and help him fix himself, but then he requests me to hold the bouquet while he fixes his shoes. He seems lively, probably because that's what it feels when money is expected on the way."Where are the twins?""Back to school.""Ugh, sorry, I woke up late."
The day finally came when I sealed the spellbook that contains the power of the moon in front of the pulpit of another mage school. My strength is even lesser now, but it doesn't bother me if this is equivalent to an increase in time with my boys."Is this your final decision?""Yes.""From now on," an enchanter declares, "you are a retired moon priestess. Your name shall remain eminent throughout the mages' history. You have done a good, and quite risky job. Hence, we are grateful for your services." He made me sign the declaration which all the witnesses in this chamber have signed as well.Shortly, I left the solemn room and met Lanasia waiting outside. At first, she taps my toga, and then she hugs me tight. "I'm gonna miss you on duty! You have no idea ho
Afvshaganifs is imprisoned in the main forest castle in an empty room guarded with tough magic. The door is only a messy sketch on the wall and only my power can make it work. I expect to be surprised since it's the captain who's inside. But not at this level— "What the..." Supposedly, the room should be completely empty but she provided a royal chair, a gallant coat dress paired with a big hat, and eye shades for her own while sipping a luxurious wine in front of her levitating spellbooks! "Great. You look more like a lady now. Do you have to dress like that in prison?" "What, would you rather see a hot captain than a glamorous queen?" she replied with the flickering of her painted nails. Her dead personality somewhat mismatches the fashion. The confidence blinds me! "I just hope this has nothing to do with Tanya's influence. Anyway," in front of her, I flipped my skirt first and then sat in the air as if there was a visible couch, "I came here for confirmation after I prosecu
"You're gay?" Hessuel asked."No. A real woman." He magically makes his hat appear in his hand and wears it, later, his tied hair grows longer and as he crosses his legs, his features change into a woman. "I am not a queen of pirates for nothing," she said and her voice was an actual woman!Unable to close my mouth, I can't believe a woman has been flirting with me! She adds,"But I became converted to my male version that even in this body," she approaches me and smells my hair, "this woman in front of me still attracts me.""Shoosh!" I drove her away like a fly!Hessuel pulls me behind him. He is calm compared to me. "Then it means you killed my mother to claim my father? Because of jealousy?" he questioned. I looked at his
(Dandeline's POV)"What? Lanasia is not here!?""She's not in your house? All I know is she visits Hessuel to have his statement regarding the ongoing investigation.""She's not. All of them are gone.""That's alarming."Eventually, instead of Lanasia, I brought Matheo to their old house to ask for his help in the gateway. He opened the door of the dark cellar and told me that "Unfortunately, I am not the guardian of this world anymore. What is your intention there?"Pinching my chin, I stare at Acro in case she can give me an answer. Unless I see them safe, I will not be at peace. Hessuel is not in the condition to go anywhere without me. Perhaps I shouldn't have left those dogs!
A candle is the only light inside. In a blink of that sudden darkness, he turns into an adult again. An ax is hurled at me coming from the darkness and I tilt Lanasia with me to dodge it."Good reflexes," he praised. The ax flies back to his hand. He stretches his hand and grips his clench. I felt a powerful hand strangling my throat and I was pulled onto the table. I am far beyond the reach of his hand but its shadow on the wall—because of that candle—reaches me."Stop this! This isn't going to solve anything!" Lanasia slams the table, and when she is about to do magic, Afvshaganifs casts her out of the room and locks the door.Given that idea, I pushed the table until he was dragged and jammed into the wall behind him. I ran to him on the tabl
I'm lucky to find records about the pirate in my father's journal here in his office. I've spent hours reading to my advantage during our travel whilst the pishnies have been counting my yawns."Look! A big fish~!""Get him!""Hed! Danteleon! Don't jump through that window!"My father and the pirate are indeed friends for a long time ever since their school days up to their mage career. The most helpful record is my father's gift to the pirate in exchange for a reviving spell because this is what we've been looking for. A pishney gave me the blueprint of the architectural design of the ship."Kids! Stop—!"I heard a splash of water.
