Awakening of the Darkness's Heirs

The night wind blew strongly, carrying the scent of death from Marie's steaming pile of ashes.Simon Oberon stood at the edge of the field, his eyes blank with vengeance. "Hunt him down," he whispered to the two soldiers standing next to him. "Find his daughter. There is no place on earth large enough for him to hide from me."Simon's two men immediately carried out their superior's orders. They ransacked the houses of all the villagers and set Marie's house on fire so that she could not return to it. They also continued their search to the edge of the forest. Both of them looked hesitant, but the two soldiers were forced to cancel their intention to return when they saw Simon and the others had already caught up and led them all into the forest. "We must find the girl until we do. I will not let Marie Blaise's descendants live to pollute this world with their magic."In the dark and winding forest, Grace, the aunt of the little girl, continued to run, her breath coming in short gas

Simon Oberon stood in front of the cave ruins, his body still aching from the impact of Elara's magical energy. However, the hatred bubbling in his heart overcame that physical pain. In Simon Oberon's eyes, madness and vengeance were burning.His desire was burning and unstoppable. He did not even care if he had to use other dirty means to get his wish. He looked at the direction where the magical passage disappeared, his breath coming in short gasps, but his heart full of determination to annihilate the entire Blaise family members without a trace. "Call Tertius," Simon ordered his closest soldier in a hoarse voice. "We need all the strength we have to go after them. The girl must be stopped."The soldier looked down in fear before rushing to summon Tertius, the notoriously sadistic and cruel shadow mage. Simon knew that this was no longer an ordinary fight. This was a war between Blaise's bloodline and the darkness he had been building without anyone's knowledge for years."Ther

The energy from the battle between Elara and Simon grew so intense that the sky above Silverthorne turned a dusky red.The thunderstorm began to flash uncontrollably, and every lightning bolt that hit the ground made the ruins of the city tremble, as if the old city was also feeling the tension that was overflowing between the two.The wind picked up speed and slowly became a tornado ready to sweep away anything in its path. Grace could only stare in dismay, realising that this clash was too strong even for her."Elara!" shouted Grace, trying to reach her niece who was at the centre of the energy vortex. "You must retreat! This city will be destroyed if you keep fighting!"However, Elara no longer heard anything. Her focus was completely centred on Simon, who was now smiling slyly despite the growing number of wounds on his body.Behind his cold face, Elara could feel Simon's fear, a fear that was hidden behind every word he said. They both knew this was a decisive battle."Are you r

Raven woke up with a scream stuck in her throat, her chest rising and falling with gasping breaths.The image of the man-with his cold, piercing blue eyes-was still vividly imprinted in her memory. Cold sweat poured down her forehead. Her head felt dizzy at once. Everything felt so real and scary to Raven. "Raven! Are you okay?" Meredith's voice startled her. Raven jumped on the bed, her heart beating even faster because of Meredith. After regaining her composure, Raven turned around to see her roommate standing next to her bed, looking at her with a worried face."I'm sorry, I... I just had a bad dream," Raven tried to smile, though she was still shaken.Meredith sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her with concern. "You just shouted the name 'Simon' in your sleep. Who is he?"Raven just shook her head. "I... I'm not even sure I know who he is," she replied honestly. "But... it feels, like someone is trying to remind me of something important."Raven's forehead furrowed in an a

"Time for what?" asked Raven, trying to reach him."Time for you to remember who you really are," Simon replied, his eyes blazing with an intensity she'd never seen before. "And, when you're ready, I'll be back to take you home."With those words, Simon's image vanished, and Raven awoke with a heart full of fear, but also curiosity.All the questions that had been haunting her began to press for answers, and she knew that no matter what, Raven could no longer run from the truth of who she was.And, deep in her heart, Raven felt that night was the beginning of a journey into the darkness she had been avoiding.That night, after the anxiety continued to haunt her, Raven decided to take a walk on campus.Raven chose to walk alone even though Meredith offered to accompany her to spend the night. The blonde-haired girl walked outside, down the hallway around her room to the dormitory courtyard. Under the moonlight, her steps echoed in the deserted dormitory hallways. Suddenly, she felt l
