"We made it!""No, Oscar. You made it yourself. You worked for it and finally manage to pull it off."Ah, I really did it. My body hurts all over but it is worth it. The formation worked as intended and we successfully put Mason's soul back into his body. Kairi healed him again when we are done so he is really back to life.I finally fixed my mistake of letting my friend die. It will take some time for him to wake up but he will. Ah... I woke up after passing out due to exhaustion earlier but it seems like I still need some time to rest my body.***When I woke up I was underwater. No, this is not water. It's liquid mana. Kairi must have put me here to let me recover quickly. I guess that worked. I feel like almost all of my earlier exhaustion is gone now. I swam out of the lake. When I reached the little shore of the lake I saw Kairi and Izumi sitting somewhere close and chatting with each other."Hey, girls. How long I was out?""A little more than five hours. I had to help your bod

My name is Zara Houll and I think I'm about to die if I can't escape this house on time. I'm having this bad feeling since the morning and it just gets worsening as time goes on. I always trust my instincts so I trusted them this time too. I secretly left the mansion just before nightfall. No one will notice my absence for a long time. When there is something interesting and new all of the Houlls are immediately focused on it. Except for me and my little cousin Charlotte.We both were different from the other Houlls while we grow up. We didn't have this obsessive curiosity in our family. And I'm glad about it. When they focus on something they easily forget the world around them. Just like the last couple of days. We decipher the data of Andrew's experiments which I uploaded to our system previously to attract my uncle's attention. James Houll, my uncle, is the current head of our family. We can't disobey him as he controls everything our family has.About three weeks ago I was doing

Evelyn took a deep breath. Her legs were shaking. The scene in front of her was both shocking and horrifying for her. There were crimson flames everywhere burning anything in their path. She could also see heavily injured people scattered around. "M-m-monster..." A single word fell from her lips albeit barely. Her eyes were focused on the back of the young boy. He was on his knees and passed out while standing like that. He was also the center and the reason for these crimson flames that can burn everything. She gulped and take a step forward. Her target was the person who was checking on the boy. At her every step her tension grew and eventually, she stopped just a few meters away from both the boy and his grandfather. "M-master..." She called out to the older person. She was still scared of the intensely burning crimson flames around. The older man looked at her with a serious face. The face she always saw was filled with kindness and sincere emotions but now there wasn't any tr

She kept muttering and the symbols started to change shapes. Their shapes... became twisted... In the middle of the paper, some liquid gathered and outlines of some words started to appear. But before anything could happen the paper suddenly turned apart by itself and Luna fell to the ground with a scream."Luna!"I was extremely worried about seeing her fall to the ground. I quickly helped her to the nearby sofa. She seemed to be deathly pale. I couldn't understand what was happening. She was just fine until that paper suddenly torn apart by itself."Luna! Are you okay?!""I'm fine. It's just... there is a backlash of failed spells.""Blacklash?""Our witchcraft works with special energy called essence. Essence is the core of a witch. It's their life force and every witch's essence is unique and different from others.""...that sounds like it's coming out of some fantasy novel. But I think I shouldn't be surprised about things like this anymore."One after another supernatural things

Because of everything she went through she already closed her heart. She only acts friendly with everyone even though she didn't want to, to not be abandoned by them, to not get left alone and buried in her loneliness, again. Oscar was already nicer to her than anyone she ever come across in the last years. So she didn't want to lose this person and his group.But it was incredibly hard for her to act friendly with everyone, not because they were bad people. But because she was instinctively refusing to open her heart to the others. She couldn't change this. She already tried to open her heart before but she left with disappointment several times by now. She was far too many times betrayed by people she come across since her childhood.'If it's him, maybe... Just maybe things will be different this time...' She wished in her heart. She turned her head away to hide her blushing cheeks. After so long she had a hope to gain a friend and maybe a place she could truly call home. That hope
