I was disappointed. It has been a week after our trip to the amusement park and I haven’t seen Byron or Skyr within those days. It’s not like we all got into a fight. It’s just that we were only following Skyr’s orders. To lay low for a little while.Because of that I didn't even get to train with Byron and learn more tips and tricks on how to control my gifts. Thankfully, aside from my abnormal strength as they would call it, my other gifts only manifest when I am near sea creatures.But I did confirm another gift though. Breathing underwater. It did not sit well for me at first because I grew up on land. I do not find breathing in water natural or even possible. That was why I did it whenever I took a bath. I changed my

 My footsteps echoed inside of the stoned floor of the building. Numerous advanced looking drones floated in the air and guards were lined everywhere. Two double doors waited for us at the end of the hallway that automatically opened as soon as we entered. A long table greeted me. At the end of it was a man with long white hair and very pale skin. His eyes were almost white and his fingers were long and bonney. He smiled when he saw me. “Ah, Nathalia Trayce, welcome. Please join me for breakfast.”I saw the two royal sentinels giving me a warning look before I addressed the man in front of me. “Lord Ylgarr.” I bowed. “It would be an honor.” I am not sure of the formalities here, but I am just going on instinct and bowing. I wasn’t sure at first if the person was exactly Lord Ylgarr, but by the small c

 I have no sense of time here, but I do know when a day would pass. There was a schedule for when I would eat and when I would bathe. If I want to use the toilet in between, I would simply need to call for them with the red button. The only time that I ever get any visitors is when Byron would drop by. About six escorts would pick me up everyday to take me to the bathroom and then back to the holding cell where they are keeping me. Byron rarely visits. It was making me anxious just thinking about him all the time that I started doing some training on my own. Nothing too strenuous. Just the normal exercises that we do to keep in shape.But if this really keeps up, I might lose my sense of combat. There’s only so much that a few pushups and cardio can do.

  “Is the afterlife really that boring that you decided to come back to life?” I grinned as I pulled Skyr back to his feet. “More or less. I heard that you got captured and figured that it is not the time for me to die just yet. More importantly, we have to keep on going.” He ruffled my head and pointed at the attic from where he came from. “Come on. Let’s get out of here.” He helped me climb up on the air vent first before climbing in himself and closing the vent. “Move over so I can guide us.” He whispered.I pressed myself closer to the wall and allowed Skyr to crawl past me. The vent wasn’t as narrow as I thought because we could even crawl without hunching our backs, which is a huge relief since I am a bit claustrophobic.
