As Cassandra prepared her tools to once again torture her current victim, the woman she'd caught looked on in horror."I'm...so sorry... Please...no more..." She said."Well well... You're a bit too late for such things. Trying to sneak into my room and threaten me at knife-point to have your say with me... To what end? Didn't you realize there would be consequences? I am in line for the throne of a nation! Furthermore, how am I to produce an heir with another woman?" Cassandra said angrily.Simply because this woman continued to piss her off, Cassandra thought about gouging out her eyes next.Then she wouldn't even have the pleasure of looking at her.All of a sudden...Cassandra stopped dead in her tracks.She saw the visage of horrifying black dragon as rapid images and memories began to flow into her mind.All accompanied by a horrible screeching noise and the roar of a dragon.She gritted her teeth as she felt her head pound like it was splitting open."Ngh...what... What is this
As soon as I died, I felt myself split off of...myself.I was cast into a dark place and slammed into the ground.I didn't know how long I was out...but when I opened my eyes, an old man was leaning over me."You sure had it rough. But you were probably one of the luckier ones. Welcome to the graveyard," he said."Grave...yard?" I asked as I looked around.It was a plain field underneath a pitch black sky. There weren't any graves or grass, just dirt."You're new, so let me explain something to you. You just died for the one-thousandth time. You are Mizik number 1000. But some of us have already taken to calling you 1k. Get used to it, because this is your home from now on," he said.So many things were running through my mind right now as I sat up.This old man wore a simple white shirt and gray pants. He had facial hair and emerald green eyes."Who-""Mizik. My name is Mizik. Everyone here is named Mizik, so you should get used to calling us by our numbers instead. Basically, we're
"That was so confusing... There was a fan club for me!?" Cassandra said."Yeah. You would feel right at home there," I said.She was very happy to hear it.So happy, that she tackled me and kissed my lips over and over.Since I felt entirely torn between loving and being angry with her, I sort of just let it happen.Isabella is probably going to be pissed. But I'll be glad if she has the opportunity to, all things considered...Cassandra laid her head on my chest and closed her eyes."We need to discuss a few things, Cassandra..." I said."I know...but I just want to enjoy this..." She said."First of all, I still want to get Isabella back," I said."I thought as much..." She said."I owe it to her for everything she did for me. Still...if you're willing to come along..."She looked up at me and smiled."I will follow you forever, darling! After all, I am Mizik's slave. His possession!" Cassandra said happily.You're...not really a slave anymore..."Look, Cassandra... I probably shoul
A week after my talk with Isabella, I was still in shambles.She had truly and completely broken my heart.Cassandra worked diligently to comfort me in my time of great pain... Part of me was still pissed that she had taken advantage of my memory loss, but I was also still very much in love with her.I couldn't help it at this point. Besides, I was thankful to not be alone.Currently, I was laying in Cassandra's bed on her chest as she held me tightly.She was really beating herself up over this..."I'm so sorry... I feel like I ruined everything... I only wanted you to love me and look what happened... I'm such a despicable human being... Why do I have to be so greedy!?" She said through her tears.I sighed."Please don't talk like that, Cassandra. I can't be angry with you because I love you too much. You're not despicable and you aren't greedy. I'm glad I married you," I said."E-even if...I ruined your marriage...?""Honestly...we weren't married in this timeline to begin with. I
Luckily, we had already packed our things into our inventories.Cassandra and I quickly made our way out of the city and started moving towards the Kalsan border.Honestly, I was somewhat fearful of going there right now...I knew Valthiem was watching us and would notify Difar as soon as we arrived.We were about to be spending a lot of time with one of the two people I despise the most.I couldn't wait to get it over with...Currently, night had fallen upon us and we were in the middle of the deep forest between Albatross and the border.Cassandra planned to move as quickly as possible for an entire day and then rest when we had enough distance.I used the 'haste' and 'haste other' spells to make us faster.We were actually exhausted from running all day and currently had collapsed on the ground."We...made a lot of...progress...haah...haah..." Cassandra said."Yeah...we did..."I knew that we'd made at least four days distance between us and the capital.Unfortunately, they knew wh
"Mizik! And is that Princess Cassandra? When did you get here!?" My father said as he approached."Hey, Dad. It's good to see you again. Amelia too. Also, we just arrived," I said.Suddenly, both Ulysses and Amelia looked at me strangely."I...haven't introduced myself. How do you know my name?" Amelia asked."I've met you before, that's how," I said."Wait...is this coming from Warmage?" Ulysses asked."I'm Warmage. Or I was, at least... Before I was killed," I said."What have you done to my son!?" Ulysses said."I am your son, Dad. Warmage is Mizik. I merged with the one in this body. We're the same person, remember? I explicitly said that I was Mizik Iratus."Realization dawned on him."Oh...so how did you die?" He asked."That's a long story. Since I'm here now, we have some time to kill before our asshole of an ally shows up," I said."Well, how about you take us somewhere to talk then, Amelia?" Ulysses said."With pleasure. And...is it really okay for her to be here? I mean...s
"Star of the show? You have got to be kidding me. Get over yourself!" I said.I couldn't help myself. One of the primary sources for my constant suffering was standing right before my eyes."AND THEN YOU JUST HAD TO OPEN YOUR STUPID MOUTH!" Difar yelled as he turned to me."Careful, Difar, if you yell at me too much, I might kill myself out of sadness. Then you'll reset again," I said."You...BASTARD CHILD!!! I HATE YOU, YOU LITTLE SHIT!!! JUST SHUT UP!!!" He screamed in anger."Excuse me...? What is going on here?" Isabella asked in confusion."Ah. It seems as though Mizik's little wife is now an enemy. How fitting. Are you enjoying your time opposing him instead of pleasuring him?" Difar asked.Isabella glared at Difar as her face turned red."H-HOW DARE YOU!!! I WOULD NEVER DO SUCH A THING TO THAT ROTTEN PERVERT! AND HOW MANY PEOPLE HAS HE BRAINWASHED!?" Isabella screamed.I slapped my forehead with my hand."Ugh...this dense woman!!!" I said.Difar looked back at me and grinned."
After that, Cassandra quietly followed me as I searched for Difar.I felt as if my heart had truly become cold.Isabella had forgotten me...I couldn't blame her...but I didn't want to have her around anymore.She only caused me pain...I would look forward into the future from now on. I would face my enemies and destroy them all.Currently, my goal was to regain my lost strength and become even stronger.I would need to murder Tyranus, first.Then, once the false wielder had been eliminated, I would go to Ignitus and have Iris make Cassandra and I into Enforcers.Lastly, I needed to visit Delvandal and have Vakra implant me with the Heart of the World. I wanted to avoid getting the Heart of the Sky if at all possible...That one could stay in Jin's tomb and rot, for all I cared.Instead, I would see if the Heart of the Deep could work on Cassandra.I would need Leiso to help kill the guardian. If not, I would still find a way.Or I could have Valthiem eat it, hopefully.As I walked,
