Evie Hunt might be vengeful, but she was not a scum. The man did not do anything bad to Evely so he was not part of the people she planned to take revenge on. Besides, according to Francis, they had a good relationship. Since she’d already decided to live on as Evely— at least while she still had no idea how to go back to her world, then shouldn’t she take her fiancé too?Urgh…Another wave of headache came and she marched out of the bathroom in a defeated state with her hand on her head.“What’s wrong? Are you having another headache?” a voice asked and Evie looked up to see Dr. Jensen sitting on one of the couches in her room. “Do you want me to ring for a nurse?”Oh…

Silence prevailed in the room. The rooms in the VIP ward of the hospital were all soundproofed. After Evie’s words, not a sound was heard except for the ticking of the clock on the far wall.Most people would have asked what happened or how something happened. But Dr. Carl Jensen was a professional. He patiently waited for her to share her story.And share, she did.For the first time since she came to Earth, Evie willingly tapped the memories she had placed at the back of her mind. She threw it there not because she wanted to forget everything that happened to her, but because she had no time. She still had to deal with adjusting to the new world. She had to concentrate on analyzing the memories she had inherited from Evely, so that her soul could integrate faster to her new body.

“Food?”Dr. Jensen was aghast.“Are you familiar with the sword of Damocles?” Evie asked.She had read some books while she stayed at the hospital, and came across some words and expressions. One of them was the ‘sword of Damocles’, an allusion to the imminent and ever-present peril faced by those in positions of power.“Like a huge sword hanging on top of your head?” Dr. Jensen asked to confirm, and Evie nodded.“Yes, that. But those who were chosen as the sacrifice, an actual sword made from energy would appear on top of their heads. The stronger the demon gate master is, the bigger and the more the swords are. It could range from the size of a dagger to a huge sword alm

“You mean…”Evie nodded. “The fight with the demon gate master depleted my power. The one I showed you is just a drop in the ocean of my real strength. As a celestial, my strength is even lower than a normal awakened.”Evie was not sure if there were other celestials like her in this world at the moment. But since she was sent there, then it was safe to assume that she was not alone. If that was the case, just like what she had first deduced, it was not smart for her to reveal herself yet— not until she recovered her full power.She could not take the risk of prematurely coming out in the open when she was not sure if there were others like her. If it was a normal awakened, it would be fine. But what if it was another transcendent like her? Worse, a returner to ancestry.

In a VIP room at one of the top hospitals in Rouen, a young lady lay quietly on the bed. Her usually fair but rosy complexion was absent. Instead, her skin had a tinge of blue into it like a person who lacked blood or was very sickly.Two sets of intravenous lines were attached in each of her hands, while the vital statistic machine was clipped on her finger. The same machine made beeping noises in sync with her breathing. Anyone who would see her would feel their heartstrings tugging at the fragility she displayed.It’s been three days since she had been sent to the hospital— three days since her emergency surgery. The lady arrived with three broken ribs and a punctured lung. It was safe to say that for a while, her life had been in danger. Knowing her identity, and the identity of the man who brought her to the hospital, the doctors did not waste
