Chapter 21: The cute miniature 'Heather'I wouldn't be lying if I wasn't excited to see his powers. Truthfully, I am amazed as I saw magnificent things such as magic and powers. This only confirmed the fact that I am living inside a novel.He extended his hands and showed me a miniature figure of me. So his powers is making lifelike objects, but does that help him when he's in danger?"Keab, does this power allow you to defend yourself?""Of course. I can make not only miniature objects but also big objects. I will show you a sword if you like.""Show me!"I am very excited as he extended his hands again and started to materialize a sword. But then a voice stopped him from doing so."Keab? What are you doing here?""Ah, Jean. It's nice to see you here."Keab stopped what he is doing and stood up as he
Chapter 22: HJAAfter changing her clothes from a boutique, they went back to the garden from earlier. It seemed like it was her favorite place in their school.There's a distance between them as they were sitting down on the bench. Keab had already went away before they even went to the boutique to let Heather change clothes.And now.She looked relieved as if she didn't like a ring.'It doesn't matter. I will buy her one.'That's what he thought as he opened the box showing a very simple necklace inside. It wasn't expensive but it wasn't also that cheap.The chain is made of pure silver while the pendant is a simple half-moon, precisely a centimetre in length. It is embedded with small diamonds, and behind it, he made a carving of her initials: HJA.When she saw it, her eyes lit up in a moment then turned her head awa
Chapter 23: I cheered for him... What did I just do?I shook my head at this moody male lead. At this rate, Rosine and him will never make progress.After touring around the school for the whole day and eating various food from different stalls, both me and Jean is tired and our feet were sore. We stopped by to a nearby bench and sat down.Unexpectedly, Jean was also a talkative person.『"Jade, look at that monument there. Isn't it beautiful? It was made of the other department.""This is a flower made from paper and called origami, the art of folding paper.""Don't you like these chocolates? Come and have a bite.""This dress suits your blonde hair.""Woah, this necklace sure is cheap but it looks like you can sell it for a good thousand worth of money."
Chapter 24: Can you do me a favor?CHARACTER NAME: HeatherSKILLS: running away* * *I went home alone after that ordeal earlier. I never thought I can run quickly like that. I went home earlier than Jean. Like what his teammates said, they probably went to have some celebratory party after.I banged my head on my bed while continuously punching my pillow."Argh! I must be crazy!"For a moment there, I lost the composure 'Heather' had. I always keep a straight face as Heather and I have gotten used to that including all the people around me. That's why it must've been a shock to all those people, including me, that I acted out something I wouldn't normally do.The looks on their faces said it all. Even the announcer earlier had his hands trembling out of shock, and Jean had a smirk."He…he reall
Chapter 25: Because she's my fiancée.NAME: JeanSKILLS: Seduction* * *When I heard Rosine asking me if I could dance with her, I fell silent. To be honest, there's a feeling of dislike ever since I've met her on the first day. It is such a strong sense of dislike that I don't even want to breathe the same air as her nor be in the same space before her.Yet when I first stared at her blonde hair, I was instinctively reminded of Heather's blonde hair that shines when sunlight pours through her head. Instead of her black eyes that masked deceit, what I saw was Heather's brown eyes.When I looked at Heather's eyes, I can clearly see the depths held inside it and her whirlpool of emotions I have never seen before. She had been using many expressions these days which I liked… no, it is a feeling that I've finally seen her other side which other
Chapter 26: A punishment?I went to the bench after dancing with Jean for an hour. My ankles and feet were sore so I started massaging them. There were quite a lot of people in the open field dancing in the rhythm.I told Jean to dance with Rosine, though I don't want to watch how it will turn out.'Will they be closer to each other after this?'I hope so.Not even ten minutes had passed and Jean came towards me grumpily telling me to go home. I was shocked as I saw Rosie's smirking face not far away for us.'You don't have to smirk at me like that.'I felt shivers down my spine. Whatever it is, that smirk is a little bit shocking. Jean was clenching his jaws so hard and I can feel he is angry again.'Why are you angry again?'He didn't said anything and just gave me a piggy back rode.
Chapter 27: You don't looked like you're forcedThe next morning, I was woken up by my maid Anne and ushered me to get ready. When I looked at the clock, it reads 6:31 am."Anne, it's too early. Let me sleep for another five minutes.""You can't do that, Young Lady. Master and Madam will get angry on us servants if we don't prepare you on time. So please just cooperate.""Aren't I your master?""That's true but… the Master and Madam were the ones who gives us pay."I rolled my eyes and got up from my bed.Even if Anne looked like someone around my age, she's got good communication skills and her words were right.'I'm only your master's and madam's daughter that's why you won't obey me.'Sometimes it's hard to not have power over these people. The more you have lesser power over them, t
Chapter 28: No one dares to mess up my date"Why don't I know basic things about you?""That's because you're not that interested in me.""But we grew up together.""We seldom talked."As I nibble on my ice cream, Jean suddenly asked why he didn't know many things about 'me'. I can't blame him because he was never interested in 'me' and he seldom talks.He frowned his forehead and continued eating ice cream.It feels like I really went out on a date. The weather is nice.After finishing the ice cream, I saw a stall where you will use a gun and shot the prizes. I felt excited and pointed Jean that stall."Are you a kid?"He raised his eyebrow as he asked this question.Come on! We don't have plans and I am here to have fun and not enjoy his hurtful remarks. H
Chapter 72: Brother and sister ∘₊✧──────✧₊∘ It has been two days since Heather went out. There was no news about the Aczen family, and even the main house was blocked from any entry. For the past two days, many people wanted to talk to the head of the Aczen family, and even to the two elder sons. But the head only sent out a message that he would be out of touch for a week. No one knew what was happening. This was the first time it happened. After all, Mr. Aczen was known to be a workaholic. Inside his room, Jean was sorting his files as Morris' eldest son. Because his sister Priyaa didn't want to be involved in their family business, he had no choice but to do it himself. His parents were also expecting much from him. ‘The expedition test will be a month from now.’ The thought of having their expedition test as students made Jean a lot happier. It was said that the last test would be held at the forest on the border of the country. Just thinking about it is waking up all t
Chapter 71: What is this feeling? “So you mean to say, I have… rose power-wielding power? Me?” I was confused and pointed at myself. Dad just nodded his head with a worried expression on his face. If I have rose power-wielding, then shouldn’t they be happy? “Don’t you understand? Our family is in a riskier position. Not only are we hiding the fact you have already awakened, but the fact that you have two malignant powers inside your body.” There was a slight annoyance when Keab spoke. He took a sharp exhale before calming down and sat back down. When he spoke just now, he stood up as if he wanted to prove his point. They already told me the same thing last time. I put it on the back of my head, thinking nothing could happen more. Now that not only I have awakened, I even had two of the powers. As they said, my teleportation and rose-wielding power were dominant inside my body. That means I can use them both as I please without limitations. But that also means I have to be very
Chapter 70: Twice When I open my eyes again, I was back in my room. My body felt weak all over, but it wasn’t to the extent that I am crippled. It was as if I was hit by something very hard on my head. When mom saw that I opened my eyes, she rushed beside me and held my hand tightly. She was once again crying. “How many times would you faint and scare us like this….”“Mom… I’m fine now. You can stop crying.”“This was never the first time you had fainted! Ever since you met that lowly girl who dared to seduce your cousin, this happened to you once in a while. This has been the fourth time already!”“Calm down first.”Dad tapped mom’s shoulder and soothed her to calm down. I can see the gentleness in his eyes despite his cold expression. He also looked exhausted. Chlofloris told me that I am asleep for two days already. I’m sure they were all worried about me. But what is this body! Always fainting at the smallest thing! I bit my lip at the scene in front of me. Both mom and dad l
Chapter 69: Chlofloris“Hmm… not really. Dying is unnecessary. Well, unless you want to die to become this world’s hero, I won’t stop you.”“Huh…?”I was still in a daze. It’s like she can read what I was saying in my mind.“Have anyone told you? Anyone from the Aczen family – no, your mother’s family to be exact – is connected to me in some way? Maybe even now, your mother can sense that I am awake. After all, she is a powerful rose wielder.”“What do you mean…?”“Are you stup
Chapter 68: A Goddess, a Fairy - Who are you?When I opened my eyes, I was lying on the floor. It was neither ice cold nor blazing hot. If anything, the temperature was at its best and was even soothing my body. It was like I was under the water of the falls, where the water was massaging my sore muscles.When I looked around, I realized I was still in that room, but it now has some colors, though it was so light that it was blinding my eyes. I can make out flowers around me, but I’m sure they are small roses.I shook my head as I suddenly felt dizzy. The pain on my wrist was gone now, but the seal on my wrist was emitting more light than it ever did when I first got it.‘Why do I alway
Chapter 67: Here in this space‘Hmm… someone’s holding my hand… it’s cold….’I was surrounded by darkness when I came back to my senses. It wasn’t like this didn’t happen to me before. Oftentimes, I would get a what you call ‘spoiler’ from the novel. Other than that, I frequently met the original Heather whenever I fainted.This time however, there was only darkness surrounding me. I don’t know if I fainted but I sure I did. The questioning factor of that was why did I faint in the first place. If I think about it, I didn’t do anything to get over fatigued enough to faint. Hiking doesn’t require that much stamina, moreover, I had a lot of rest afterwards. So, why?
Chapter 66: Two Powers ∘₊✧──────✧₊∘ ‘Haa, this is really tiring….’ I tried using my powers again after a long time of not using it. Instead of the feeling that I am finally progressing, I felt more exhausted than ever. ‘Was it because I went out with Jean earlier?’ Early in the morning, Jean came and pulled me out of bed to go with him hiking. Seriously, I was sleeping so fine earlier, and he had just barged in and woke me up. I was so angry at him that I scolded him from the time we went out of our mansion to the hiking area until we got back again. He was just laughing at
Chapter 65: Are you sure?“… You….”Words won’t get out of her mouth while she is frozen in place. It was a very short moment, but it felt like her world stopped spinning and all she could see was his glowing red eyes.It was a very brief moment and yet, what she had seen was clear. She even saw how a dangerous glint flashed his red eyes. Cold shivers ran down her back.She stared at Mir’s back. His hair was short and a luminous black, while his face was contoured with his sharp jaw and a pointed nose from his side view. If he tilted his head a little more, she would be able to see his face under his hood.
Chapter 64: Another dayThat night, Rosine couldn’t sleep peacefully. The anger she had felt rendered her sleepless. What more, the fact that Mir didn’t visit her for three days already was irking her. The reason was that she was losing her mind and didn’t know what to do.It was only at dawn that her eyelids feel heavy and she tried to sleep. At that moment when she almost succumbed into darkness, a pair of warm arms engulfed her into a tight hug.The warmth was familiar, so she let herself sleep, along with his sweet voice coaxing her to sleep.∘₊✧──────✧
