ANMELDENEveryone had returned back into the room after realizing the temperature was now calm.However, someone wasn’t feeling that comfortable, and she was sitting at the very edge opposite Adrian.Seralyth still felt like the pressure from earlier could’ve killed her if not that they had brought her out of the entire building, and to imagine such immense pressure when it wasn’t like he was physically attempting to attack made her feel terrified of Adrian.Her own thoughts even sounded more stupid to her now, as she thought before—when she was younger—that Adrian wouldn’t be able to stand her if she was able to train harder than him.That was because back then Adrian would agree to spar with her, and unlike the others who depended on their Kareth energy to fight, he was different. He didn’t use it for attack or defense—he would use his hands and his skillful movement, only showing her he would have landed a brutal hit on her if he wanted to, because she was always open. However, he would onl
After the fight with the men Anderson had sent to capture Adrian and bring him, the main reason was so he’d reverse or do something about whatever he did that caused him to lose his ability. He had been unable to gather his Kareth past a specific limit, making him weaker than he was before.However, Adrian had returned back home with Kari’s help; he was able to contain his massive let out of Kareth.Thus, Karis couldn’t yet suppress the whole Kareth energy and had to still stay in control of Vivienne’s body, else it’d cause imbalance if he was to leave her in control of the body. He explained this was the safest way to go about it, and they’d figure something out when Adrian wakes up.At the time, Seralyth had received a message from the Queen requesting that it was an urgent matter and that she needed to speak with Adrian, but he was still asleep after three days from the fight.Suddenly, opening his eyes on the fourth day, Adrian could see a sealing above him, and his whole body see
Mona is from the witch lineage and has somehow inherited the same magical connection as her grandfather, who practiced a magic known as Expression.This magic is known as a curse—one that witches would never allow to exist. They would hunt down anyone who possesses it before they become consumed by its power, because it is pure evil, capable of disrupting the balance of nature itself.However, Mona was born a special child—capable of doing things far beyond her age. Witches would normally require assistance from their freeness and others to perform powerful spells. However, those who wield Expression magic can draw directly from negative energy and use it to empower themselves, making them the strongest kind of witches.Her grandfather was the one who first tread this path, and he was later rejected by the dead spirits of witches. They refused to favor him or answer his call should he ever seek their aid. Although, it seemed he never needed them—he was more powerful than all of them c
“Welcome, Mona. How did it go?” Tyson asked. The moment he noticed the atmosphere in the room change slightly, he already knew it was her.Appearing from thin air, Mona stretched out her hand, and a round-shaped crystal left her palm, flying toward Tyson, who caught it mid-air.His face lit up brightly.“Your men are all captured,” Mona said.Tyson paused for a moment. “That’s no problem. It won’t affect my plans at all. After all, most were just clones, and the most important thing is this crystal that you’ve brought,” he said.He placed it into a small box that was exactly the right size to contain the crystal, as if it had been specifically made for it.“Now, would you accompany me to the settlement? I’ve got work to do, and I would also need your help with a few things,” Tyson said.Mona’s expression slightly changed as she felt discomfort at his words.“I’ve barely recovered from the last time I helped you with your settlement, and I won’t be doing anything for you… not right now
The doctor went to the safe where the most important item in this storehouse was kept.Unlocking a specially secured safe box, a briefcase could be seen inside.He gently brought out the white briefcase and then placed it on the table as he unlocked it.Immediately, heavy sweat washed over his face as he realized it.“Your Highness… the briefcase is empty…” the man said in a panicked tone.The Queen, at first, wasn’t sure until she stepped forward herself and saw that the briefcase was indeed empty. Only a cube remained—something that clearly once held an item inside.Without turning her head, “Did you say the name of the girl that followed you on this mission was Mona?” the Queen asked.Her red armor gave off a superior aura.The air around everyone tightened as they felt the shift from her usual calm, smiling demeanor.“Ah—yeah, I don’t know any details about her in particular apart from her name and that she’s from this kingdom, so she assured me that she knew the ins and outs of t
The massive explosion sent a shockwave across the entire area, shaking the ground and causing even the mighty airship to lose its balance and fall.Inside the storehouse, some men in black hoods could be seen as well, but these ones had special equipment on, and their faces were visible—unlike the others whose hoods covered theirs completely.“Hey, do you think they managed to bring down the airship, or what’s that loud explosion?” one of them muttered as he constantly looked around, as if expecting someone to burst in through the door.Actually, no one had opened the door, and according to their plan, no one should notice anything happening inside the storehouse. The chaos outside was supposed to be enough to keep everyone occupied.Plus, their security team had already been taken out, so everything had been carefully planned. Still, this particular man found it strange.“Hey… calm down, will you? We’ve been here for a while now, and they don’t even have a clue we’re here. So do you
The building rose with a quiet dignity, its presence wrapped in a hush of timeless wealth and whispered power. The air around it carried a freshness, as if peace itself had taken residence there, drifting softly like perfume from old fortunes. Its modern lines stood sharp yet graceful, crowned with
Mr. Clark Walters was a well-known man with a reputation in the business world as one of the most powerful people, not only in Vereluxe City but also outside the city. His legacy had stretched far back since his father’s time, and now he was carrying the name. Very soon, he’d pass this legacy down
Even as Adrian walked closer it made no difference as what he actually saw was just true and it confirmed to him that Vivienne was no longer in Vereluxe City.He was surprised that when he went to the Lancasters’ building it was quite empty of people, he couldn’t find anyone in
At this moment, Adrian isn’t sure what’s going on with Lyra. She seems to be acting differently right now, as if she’s never made any attempt to do something bad to him. For Adrian, since he found out about the text Lyra had sent to Vivienne—the one that caused her to leave the whole city and aba
