Chapter 31 A Matter of One's Words

The shadow loomed where Sylvia once stood. It would’ve fallen upon her had she remained still from the shock. The split second decision kept her safe. When Sylvia sensed the shadow with her eyes, she jumped back without a second thought. However, due to wearing sandals in uneven ground, she tripped and fell on her behind. Sylvia had survived the immediate threat. But the next seemed unlikely. Running, her most advantageous method of surviving, was no longer an option. Her hidden card, divine power, was currently unable and would send her to the afterlife through agonizing pain. She’d rather not experience it again. "Dead," the shadow said. It was a cold feminine voice, one that Sylvia recognized in an instant. She raised her head, and looking down on her was a figure clad in dark blue garments. Blades clung to her sides, held in place by fashioned leather loops. Her eyes held no emotion in them unlike when they first met. Besides the rare eye color and her intimidating appea

Chapter 32 The Mercenaries’ Acceptance

A sharp, stabbing pain emanated from deep in his heart as the seal around his power contracted against the organ, reminding him of its existence. His restraints and his sole weakness—the limiter to the full extent of his power—his punishment for turning against the church.Nadir could’ve risen to the position of cardinal. He had the potential.Among his peers, not only was he a Vessel, but he had the talent to execute Lumere’s will without a shred of doubt.Nadir had punished heretics according to the church’s laws and rewarded the faithful. He had slain countless beasts and cultists and even exorcised specters and demons.His faithful devotion had inspired droves of people, and he’d moved many unbelievers to convert.However, at some point, Nadir chose to abandon all of what could’ve been and put it all behind him.Now, he walked a somewhat different path.Nadir became a mercenary without a destination in mind as he wandered the Continent. A man without a path laid out in front of hi

Chapter 33 Concealed Intentions

Sylvia shivered. The chill of the autumn night seeped into her bones with each passing second.Alone in the bathroom, she dyed her hair, rubbing the thick viscous liquid along her scalp to ensure no trace of her original hair color showed.Her unusual eye color was already suspicious for people in the know, which included the Duke of House Winston.Hadn’t Livia already warned her of the estate’s tight security?As a previous Duchess, Sylvia was keenly aware of the ducal house’s elite group. Only a few have ever known of their existence—a group of elites among elites—the Shadows.As their name implied, they operated behind the scenes, carrying out confidential tasks while protecting the duke and his household.Though lauded for its exemplary order of knights, the House used the Shadows solely for missions that should never see light.Knights that uphold the House’s honor in the light and elites trained for assassinations and espionage in the shadows—this lethal dual force guarded the H

Chapter 34 A Small Change

“Oh. This looks nice,” Sylvia said, unable to hold back from voicing her thoughts.She turned her head to the left then right, admiring the perfect bun pinned to the back of her head. It reminded her of a cream puff.“It suits you well, my lady,” Caroline said with a gentle smile. “The young master is waiting for you in the library.”Sylvia smoothed the skirt of her dress, then glanced at herself in the mirror one more time. During her stay, she’d been provided luxurious tastes, from her clothes to the food she ate. The servants, Caroline and Nina, treated her like one would treat the daughter of a noble family.While Sylvia accepted all of them without much thought, it would be improper to keep indulging in the House’s hospitality. Her bruises had nearly subsided, and she barely felt pain anymore.This was largely due to Loomis’ effective medication. It was worth every coin the young master paid him.Her physical constitution was good enough for her to start working.Nodding, she sai
