And my heart sank. The next moment, Horace spoke. "Vivian's allergic to acrylic, so I asked for someone to help paint this picture after she finished the sketch and the lineart!" And so, the room exploded with clamoring voices. "I knew it. You really are a witch, Rose!" "Sir, did you hear that? She plagiarized art and tried to frame it on an innocent girl! Someone like that doesn't have the right to study at our academy, so you should have her expelled!"

"If they knew those disasters were the Reaper's work, they must've looked into it. There's gotta be more." Then he stopped—holding up a small slip of paper. One glance, and he ripped it to shreds. "What did it say? Why'd you tear it?" I blinked, thrown. "It's how to break the curse. I know what to do." His voice was steady, too steady. Something felt off. "Then why can't I see it?" "Because the Reaper's watching. I can't risk him seeing it too. Just... trust me." I met his steady gaze—and for once, followed my heart. "I trust you."

Waiting for the next blow to come. The soldier’s smile increased as he approached her, violently lifting her from the ground by her hair and flinging her towards his comrades; her easily bruised frame slamming into the ground. She cried out, squealing when one of the men crashed his foot into her stomach, blood dripping from the corner of her mouth. She wrapped her arms around her stomach, curling into a tight ball on her side in an attempt to lessen the pain that she knew would come.

Seeing me, she grabbed my hand and screamed, "Sion is a monster… You have to save me!" I frowned, noticing that even makeup couldn't hide the bruise on her neck. "Tell me, what happened?" Joey was still panicking and gulped before she finally spoke. She had gotten bored and was exploring Sion's castle when she found his secret room. She shuddered, her previous dignity gone. "It's filled torture tools, and there's a deep pool of blood on the floor. And…" She paused, her nails digging into my harm. "There's this tome that says Sion stays alive by eating the hearts of young girls! That the more infatuated his victim is with him, the better!"

Baby was licking his furs. "What do you mean? Grandpa Gao is a Shaman?" Joy interrupted hazily. "Maybe, it’s the holy mud. You need to keep it as a secret, and do not show it to anyone else." He returned the Mud to Joy. "The Holy Mud? Sounds valuable, what is it for?" Joy took over the clay figure. "I have no idea yet, but we will find out."

Then, I turned off my computer and went to water the plants on the balcony. The bougainvilleas outside the window were in full bloom, their purple petals swaying gently in the breeze. I recalled the words Dad used to love saying. "Elena, no matter what happens, live well." And so, I promised him I would live well. … Third Person's POV Meanwhile, in Newmont, a storm was brewing. After receiving the evidence Elena had provided, Guillermo didn't rush to act. He was an extremely cautious man, so he spent two full weeks verifying every piece of evidence, ensuring there were no gaps.

"Thank God, it's not as difficult—" "Ssh!" Damian placed his finger in front of his lips, then slowly unsheathed his sword. "Something’s approaching." Grace and Jocelyn stared at each other with wide eyes before drawing their weapons. Around them, the guards were ready to attack whatever might appear.

It stood half its body, reaching five meters high.

I let my words hang in the air between us. He chuckled. "Of course, we do. There are trade routes." I waited for him to say more but it soon became obvious that was all he was going to say. I gritted my teeth as the gates that had looked so pleasing to me just a moment before now seemed like an evil machination intended to keep me bound in here forever. The gates stood atop a hill. A design that was as strange as it was effective. Strange because most of the territory was spread out on flatlands and effective because no one could sneak up on them.
