"Now, give me what I want within a week. The guild can do that, right?" she said and Erick smirked. "We knew that this guild specializes not only in killing monsters but also getting information from the neighboring kingdom." Adelyn continued as she watched Erick like how he watches her. One of the few things that she learned without the help of the novel and purely coincidence was another guild who has a connection and spy in all the kingdoms like the Night Guild. They're one of the four guilds who have…

"Miss... I have never seen such a haughty chick like you." The adventurer who approached Adelyn said. The other adventurers inside the guild only shake their heads as they know what will happen if the lady is provoked. "If you need a chick then go to a barn. You pig!" Adelyn replied. The other men in the guild laughed when they heard the sharp words of the lady describing the man who approached her. While the others chuckled, the unknown adventurer seems to be hurt at the words she said, without…

The atmosphere around the two were quite intense and since it was so early in the morning, the heat also added to the tension. Cassandra thought about the curse that she knew ever since she diagnoses Evelyn's mana leakage. But the curse at that time was none of her business. So, she never asked about it. Even though she was curious about what it is. People have secrets that they don't want to know, she thought. "So? Do you know how to break a curse?" Evelyn asked again. "I will not beat around the…

"Are you fine now? You're not in pain anymore?" Gil was endlessly checking her temperature using his forehead and his palm. If someone sees this, they might think that he was her lover. "Gil, stop it. I'm fine!" Evelyn replied. "So? Where are the others?" she continued to ask. "The others? You mean your other contracted spirits?" "Yes... I can't feel them" "Well, when your memories are sealed and most of your powers were also chained, everyone decided to go back to their own territory but everyone…

The blue sky was shining so brightly, every sweep of the air the trees responded to its call and swayed its branches like it was dancing to the rhythm of nature. A little girl is peeking outside of the carriage and at the forest of Sushu mountain. The lush greeneries and the smell of the fresh air welcomed the mother and daughter that came from the neighboring Kingdom. The child smiled. It was the first time she got out of the castle-like mansion that her family resided. "Mom! Look! The birds are here!…

The clear night sky seems to be telling me that it was time to prepare myself for the impending pain that I will feel soon. I gulped a lump that was on my throat and wet my dry lips. It seems that I can't avoid pain even in this life. The moon's light slowly approached the array that was painted on the ground. Looking at it closely, the surrounding area seems to be quiet that not even a single chirp of the night owls can be heard. Nervousness and anxiety came to me. Will I be able to endure the pain? Or…

"Are you ready to know the truth?" asked Cassandra. She looks at me with those worried eyes. I'd say that we became close in the span of almost three years. It was really a tough road! How I did all the tasks she wished for me to be able to persuade her to make me potions and cure my curse if possible. "I am… It's what I wanted since I lost my memories." I smiled to assure her. "Are you sure? Adelyn?" said Gil. "Yes, Gil. It's what I need to know, right? You of all people know that I need to know…

The summer breeze was filled with a refreshing smell of the flowers blooming, the earthy smell and the birds chirping along the sounds of the leaves swaying with calmness. It was a perfect day to spread a picnic sheet in front of the lawn and bring some refreshment orget a sunbathed while hanging the bedsheet in the wooden hanger that was placed in the sunniest part of the house. It has been four years since I left the Kingdom of Levingstone. The fourteen-year-old girl that was known to be spoiled and…
