Rain stood up, panting. She held her stomach, which felt like it was being stabbed. God knows how long and far she ran from the Darkwood forest to Westlake City. All the way in Rain's mind, there was only one name. Currently, the distance between Rain and the owner of that name was only separated by a double black door.Without hesitation, Rain immediately pressed the button beside the door hard, fast, and repeatedly. The owner of the house did not appear to answer the door. Rain has no more time. She's racing against time.Rain clenched her fists and started pounding on the black door with all her might. She no longer cared about the throbbing pain in her knuckles. She kept banging on the door like a madman.On the umpteenth bang, the door finally swung open. It was still too dark when the house owner was forced awake to receive a disturbing visitor."Where is Chiel?"Haramon, Chiel Burley's personal assistant, answered the door. He stood confused. His pair of sleepy eyes could not b
"You were born from a forbidden relationship between King Dauntess II and the palace witch—Alyssa Cruise," Chiel said to Rain."King Dauntess II? Jace Dauntess' father?" Rain almost screamed. "Not!"Rain's eyes flashed red. Something burst from within the girl."Markus Orwell is not your father! Your name should be Rain Cruise. Your mother—Alyssa Cruise, never married a king. You have no right to inherit the Dauntess name."Rain shook her head vigorously. A demonic figure that was uncontrollable and which Rain never realized was stored inside her is now present and wants to take the girl's consciousness.Rain choked Chiel's neck suddenly, very strong and fast. Rain pushed Chiel until he fell from his wheelchair. Rain forced the warlock against the wall as she continued to choke him.On the other hand, Haramon was lying unconscious with a pool of blood seeping from his head. Moments ago, Haramon tried to attack Rain, who threatened to kill Chiel. With just one swing of Rain's left hand
Rain had turned around and was about to leave Chiel Burley's house. However, the warlock suddenly sat up straight while clutching his sore neck."Who gave you permission to leave here?" muttered Chiel.Rain's steps stopped, and she turned back to Chiel. "No one needs your approval or permission. You don't even have the right to speak before me!"The peak of the full moon is only a few hours away. Rain must quickly find Jace and save him. Rain didn't know that the impact of the curse she had given would be this terrible. Rain had to stop it before something worse happened.Chiel grinned. He stood up with difficulty and challenged Rain. The face of the warlock in the body of a 10-year-old boy looks annoying.Rain really can remember everything. Her past, especially her childhood. Rain remembered always playing together with Chiel in the Darkwood forest. There was one question that always bothered Rain's mind at that time. Chiel's body never grows old or taller, while Rain continues to g
Rain walked out of Chiel Burley's private residence after single-handedly defeating the ripping demons. A few steps after crossing the street, Chiel's house exploded. Enormous flames soared into the night sky. Rain grinned while wiping the blood dripping down her forehead."The ripping demon must be buried with their maker. They must be ripped apart together and put into the deepest hell."Gazing up at the dark sky, the full moon shone brightly above her head. Black clouds rolled across the sky. Rain felt a very strong magical energy coming from somewhere.Erica had just arrived at the city of darkness, where she met West and briefly explained everything. Point in seconds, the entire army of darkness from the city of darkness rose and appeared at the border box together; they attacked the pack of wolves trying to protect the city. War is unavoidable.A large, dark creature with wide wings landed right before Rain. Rain had never seen this creature before, but she often heard its name
Two sizeable black travel bags were tossed onto the paved road that had just finished raining. One of the bags rolled twice before stopping right in front of a girl's pair of legs.The girl in the black knee-length coat standing in the middle of the street looked down and checked the bag in front of her feet."This is my bag, you bastard!" she growled. "Who dares to do this to my belongings?" she said, annoyed as she stood up again, staring at the open door of his apartment.Some books, clothes, and other objects can be seen being thrown into the streets just like that. Swearing and swearing came from the girl's old apartment.Annoyed that her personal belongings were dumped on the street, the girl immediately ran to check on the culprit. From inside her apartment appeared a fat woman who was angry and cursed while carrying the last thing that belonged to the girl."Mrs Puff? What are you doing in my house?" protested the girl annoyed."What am I doing, you say? Are your eyes blind? O
Rain is very excited. She couldn't even wait until Ben came back from the convenience store. There wasn't much time to catch the last night train to Westlake.In that state, there is a small town called Dark Wood. Referring to the story of the woman he had just contacted, Rain only needed to go there by night train.Before leaving, Rain left a note for Ben and promised to be back next weekend. Rain only brought one travel bag containing two pieces of clothing and personal equipment.Rain's departure for Westlake was like a gamble. She risked the last of his money to buy train tickets to get this job."If I fail the interview, I'm sure I'll be a bum tomorrow," Rain muttered as she pulled her coat tighter up.She walked quickly to warm up the body that was starting to shiver. The street lights started to turn on. She walked a few blocks to reach the city station.Rain reached into her coat pocket. She took out some coll and some of her last coins."One ticket to Westlake," Rain said, ha
In a village in the interior of the Darkwood forest, the residents flocked to close all the doors and windows of their houses as tightly as possible once the night fog fell. They extinguished the oil lamps and candles. No light, no sound. Everyone was silent and closed their eyes.Two little girls of a farmer's daughter lay on the bed terrified. They continue to attach the body to the mother. The little girl's hands gripped the hem of her mother's clothes tightly."I'm afraid of the dark," whispered one of the little girls."Ssshh... don't make a sound," pleaded the mother."Why?" asked the eldest daughter innocently."They can hear us. They can eat us. Light and sound, must be removed if we are to survive!"Boom!Lightning suddenly struck and split the dark night sky. The fog grew thicker and covered every house in the village. The wind was blowing hard, making the trees sway vigorously.From the depths of the untouched forest, a dark and pitch-black passage was suddenly created. The
The sound of a long whistle ended the night train journey. Rain woke up from her sleep. She stretched to stretch the stiff muscles. She was exhausted from sitting on the train for nearly six hours.Rain looked out the carriage window. She saw the atmosphere of the station, which was thickly foggy. The station in Westlake City was very different from the station in the city where she had been living all this time. Feeling the slightly different atmosphere, Rain was excited to go down and see it in person.She stood up and took her travel bag from the upper cabin. After slinging the bag on her shoulder, Rain started walking out of the carriage. As soon as her feet hit the train platform, a thick fog seemed to part and gave him away.The train whistle blew again when Rain was actually standing on the platform. The girl glanced around the venue. No one got off but her at Westlake station.That dark morning the air was so cold. Even though Rain had her coat on, it felt much more chilly in
