Back at home, I’m currently in my room preparing for what I should bring to our mission tomorrow. I bought a light armor and a new dagger made of a demon heart. Weapons made of demon hearts can be called artifacts, but they are still different from the first artifacts made. I am glad that I’m able to meet up with Nico who opened a new shop located near Artemis city. His weapon is all top notch and I can’t find a smith like him ever again. Nico is one of a kind. He mentioned that my new dagger is made of demon kind that could drain out the skill of other creatures, Drain dagger (Drain Dagger. Ability: Energy drain. Like the name implies it sucked energy from the target to the user by damaging the target.) Using this dagger’s ability, I could replenish my energy while in battle. This dagger is like a cheat ability. Charlotte had trouble using her energy. She’s strong but her energy is very limited. An item like this in her possession would make her stronger for sure. The high prie
“I can see it with my eyes, but I will still ask you why… Why does Choco seem angry?” “Nothing important…” She averted her face for a second and went back to me. “Even in the spirit world, I do feel upset sometimes… Let’s not talk about my feelings. I congratulate you on doing a great job retrieving a divine gem.” “Could you tell me more about the divine gems? There are lots of things I want to know. Like why the dark goddess is being clingy to me. Did you know her?” “That’s a lot of questions at once… We did have a time limit. I think you're reasonable. A long time ago there were six goddesses: fire, wind, water, earth, light, and dark. Everyone didn’t know there was a seventh goddess of Null. She is one of a kind because she is the only goddess who has full control of all the elemental energy in the whole universe… She was kind and helpful to other people when, suddenly out of nowhere, she became reckless and planned to destroy everything. She goes to steal each gem from the oth
“This place looks deserted I wonder where is everyone,” Charlotte said. “This is perfect looks like no one has noticed our presence. Let’s hurry up and finish this job quickly.” Princess said and take the lead. She gave her head turned left and right. Searching for the rat demon kind infesting the city. We departed from Artemis city to Eterna city early in the morning, the sun is nowhere to be found yet and the surrounding filled with chilly morning fog. The whole sky was still covered with complete darkness. Dark clouds covered the stars above. The place looks like a residential place, but there is no one there. It feels abandoned. “What’s wrong with princess today? She looks very tense. Normally, she would sit down looking pretty and let us take all the work.” Kisara muttered. “Don’t talk to me like that. I’m not lazying around on our mission. You’re both powerful. The mission ended without any casualties. As a support healer. There is nothing for me to do.” “Yeah, but when
He’s not harmed by my attack? Observing him… I noticed that his body was enveloped by black liquid. Those aren’t black liquid, those are shadows. He used his ability to save his bacon. I could feel my feet having cold as I look at him. I made my strongest attack but it did not affect him. Making me lose some hope. No, calm down… I fought many battles already. A battle where I always put into a corner. This battle is no different I have to stay calm and think of a way to win. I’m not the same person as before. I’m not the same red who continues to rely on others. I want to save people… I sound hypocritical but that's why I’m fighting. I can’t lose here… I can’t die here. I must destroy anyone blocking my way to my goal. I leaped n the dark shade. Concealing my whole body in darkness. I took out one of my daggers and threw it. Together with the dagger, I dashed forward in a different direction. The dagger was intercepted by Night. “Using your weapon as projectile this time… It’s
“It's useless my flame ability is not working against this iron cell.” Kisara angrily said while she continued with her flaming fist. She distanced herself and resorted to a powerful flaming kick. It made a loud sound but it didn’t break anything. Beside Kisara’s prison cell was Princess seemingly depressed. She touched the iron and inspect it. “This iron must have materials from white iron. White iron is known how nullifying any supernatural force. It is the perfect prison cell for ability users… Therefore, You’re just wasting your energy Kisara.” “But I can’t just stand here and wait Charlotte is been caught and listening to your story. I have to save her no matter what. I don’t want her to go back to her hellish life.” Kisara retorted. Several hours already passed when we were caught. Another masked man in all black appeared to take Charlotte away from us. For this time, he was wearing a pure white lab coat. “Found you again…” He muttered before he left. I know for sure the
“The half-naked girl early this morning.” Kisara said. Night's face turned red. It did happen this morning, but it’s a detail that someone should not say. Kisara can just say. Hey, it’s the girl this morning. I brushed off the two girls sitting on me as I stood up. I have difficulty trusting this woman, but it won’t change the fact that it is the very reason why we’re still alive now. Turning my glance around, I could see myself inside a library. Tall bookshelves all aligned and the silent atmosphere. “Thank you for helping us.” “We’ll I’m not helping you because I wanted…” “What do you mean by that?” I said. “I’m going straight… I’m only helping you three because I know that you’re the only three people who could help Charlotte flee.” “What is your connection to Charlotte anyway?” Kisara asked. That’s right, earlier this morning. She called Charlotte, as they knew each other. Princess told me that Charlotte couldn’t remember her past. Probably, this girl is Charlotte’s acq
“I want to talk with your mother.” Charlotte said to the woman with incredible beauty seating on the bed. The woman turned her body upon hearing Charlotte’s voice. Mother?! My eyes widen in surprise. I thought she is a clone of the strongest being alive. This is not making any sense to me. She does have similarities to her. She’s more like an adult version of Charlotte. “So you’ve become stable after remembering everything. How’d you able to do that?” “I merely think that all my memories are true. All of those memories hold feelings in my heart. Some of it might be a lie. But I decided to continue cherishing them.” “Cherishing every memory… I’m pleased with what you’ve become.” “Mother, please stop this madness… You’re the only one who can stop everything that is happening here.” She shook her head left and right. “That’s not true at all Charlotte… I might be one of the inquisition commanders, but my power has its limits. The people in this city are slaves because they need to
I woke up but I still haven’t been able to move my body. My head is hurting because of the edge of the staircase. Yuyu had my body dragging, while Yaya had Kisara. “ He's awake… You are tough, but you can’t move, so it's useless.” Yaya said “It's only a paralyzing poison. Of course, the only difference is whether you’ll die here or on the fiftieth floor. You must be wondering, arent you? How two children like us become integrity knights, right?” Yuyu said and continued her story… “We were born and raised inside this tower. The pontiff ordered the scientists and maids to create us. To use us in an experiment to restore completely lost life with a demon-kind heart or some other way, like searching for the resurrection spell. We received our first order from the pontifex at age five. Our job is to kill each other. We were given a toy like a sword and then we’d pair off taking turns stabbing each other.” “ The Pontifex attempt at a resurrection spell was such a disaster. Many resurre
