Elysia felt the sensation of detachment for the first time in a while. She did not know if she was glad to be in a dream or disappointed to be back here. It had been some time since she dreamed about the future like this. The last time Elysia had felt something like this was when she dreamed about Sara. 'But that was a different case. This dream feels similar to the one I always have in the Cleansing pool.' The dream Elysia had about Sara was more like an out-of-body experience for her. She had seen…

"You sure have one hell of a butler in your household. He planned for this outcome to happen." Sorias spoke about what Lucas had been thinking about. And as much as Lucas wanted to refute that claim, he could not. "It seems like Hector is a little too pushy when it comes to his nephew's well-being. He wants to push Victor closer to me." Lucas had a feeling that Hector was trying to foster a friendship between Victor and Lucas by making them stick together. It was similar to the tactic he had pulled in…

"Let's start with our first lesson of the day, the history and antique section. Lord Dirac has told me that there is no need to engage you in weapon practice or magic techniques. So we shall start with what is important next." Elysia nodded as her teacher took a seat on her left. The man had a gentle glance but something about his attention was disturbing to Elysia. She wanted to creep away from him as far as she could. And it was not even about his 'evil' aura. Something about the man was just 'off' to…

"My lady, it is so nice to meet you. May I have the honor of making your acquaintance?" There was a tense silence as Victor asked for Lady Dirac's hand. Even the servants had quitened down to look at the scene. "Victor, what are you doing? I specifically asked you not to cause a scene but here you are, ignoring my words. Do I need to rethink my decision of hiring you?" Lord Dirac's voice was black with rage and regret. Even Elysia had to take a step back at the unexpected reply she heard. The only ones…

"Wahhhh, look at this skin tone and that complexion. And then add that gorgeous red hair of yours. Everything in here would compliment my lady so much. Which one do you prefer? The red shades or the black ones?" The over-zealous Royal Tailor seemed to be in a great mood today. Her eyes shined at seeing her new customer who entered the shop with the Crown Prince. She, along with her assistant had served the royal family for generations but never had the Crown Prince ever brought anyone in here. Even when…

"It's nice if you finally find the time to see me, my dear daughter. I heard that you took care of the Kelvin town case. So, how was the experience leading the team?" Eve had not wanted to come back to the temple this soon. Instead, she would have preferred to spend the day with Elysia now that she was finally awake. But the charity ball was a big event that Eve could not afford to mess up. This was where her reputation as the next saintess would be coined. 'And then I can openly state my intentions…

Once Elysia had gone to sleep, Lucas also retreated to his room. He could feel Hector's disapproving glance staring into his head but Lucas didn't spare him a look. After all, he already knew what the head butler was worried about. "Hector, if you are worried about Elysia wearing the family crest at the upcoming charity ball, then you should calm yourself down. She has my full support to do what she wants to." Lucas had said those words to reassure the Head Butler but the man looked even more pissed off…

'How did I find myself in this situation? I can feel the eyes glaring daggers into my back even from behind the window curtains.' Elysia flinched as the needle came too close to piercing her body again. This was already the tenth time she had been pricked because of her body's reaction. "Lady Dirac, you need to relax. Your dress will not sit well on your body if you move around too much." The old lady who was fixing Elysia's dress somehow managed to prick Elysia again. She was being extremely patient…

The much-awaited reunion happened after the 7-day mark passed. Elysia managed to wake up in time to receive guests and Eve also kept her word of visiting her. As soon as the redhead saw Elysia's eyes open, her arms closed around Elysia's shoulders and she was pulled into a tight hug. "I thought I lost you. You were sleeping for so long that it felt like you will never wake up again. I am so happy to see you finally wake up." Elysia's head was spinning in the hug, her senses still trying to make sense of…

"Come back with me. Please, come back with me. I don't want to lose you again so please don't do this to me." The words echoed inside Elysia's mind like a curse. She had never heard someone plead with her in that earnest voice and it caused her desire to remain in this peaceful illusion to waver. Those words were enough to make Elysia want to go back since they sounded so sincere. 'Are you going to allow yourself to suffer out there again? Didn't the Head Priest say that he needed you as well? Look…
