Sorry there was no update for two days. I traveled back home for the holidays on Monday and I had issues with the bank that took my whole day yesterday.
Satyre placed her hand on her chest, feeling slight discomfort. Her breathing was also heavy.“Don’t worry about anything Lady Satyre, you’ll be fine. You should start feeling normal any second from—“ the head maid said but stopped when she saw Satyre starting to feel alright.“Please forgive what I did to you Lady Satyre, I was just making sure that I can trust you” Pluck said apologetically.“It’s alright, I understand why you did what you did. I also understand that from the way curses works, you also can’t betray my master, or else the curse will backfire on you, correct?” Satire asked.Pluck chuckled “Correct Lady Satyre”Satyre grunted “That means, for you to do something like this then you’re already on board with allying with my Master” she inquired and Pluck smirked, saying nothing concerning the question.Pluck looked at the head maid who still had some things to say and Satyre looked at her as well, wanting to hear more.“Lady Satyre, is it safe to say that throughout the h
"This is Johnny, Queen, Ruby, and Cassandra and everyone this is Lady Satyre, the guest I mentioned before" Pluck introduced his Dallihand starting from the deep-voiced guy with bug muscles to the soft-speaking lady to the nonchalant emo-looking guy and finally the second female Dallihand who hasn't spoken a word since.All four of them raised a hand to greet Satyre when Pluck called their name and Satyre greeted them back."Queen, you guys will be—" Pluck said but Johnny cut him off."There's no need explaining to us what we have to do Master Pluck ‘cause we already heard it while coming here," Johnny said with a huge grin on his face."So Lady Satyre, when will the other Dallihand be arriving? Are they already in the mansion or are they somewhere else and have to be called first?" Queen asked, staring intently at Satyre.Ruby yawned "I hope it's not today 'cause I don't want to burn through the food we just ate this quickly—" he said but was cut off by Johnny who slapped his back a
Pluck clapped his hands while laughing enthusiastically “This is going to be fun!” he said.Johnny punched his fist into his palm “I doubt that Master Pluck. How fun can a two seconds test be?” He said while glaring at Satyre“That’s right, this is only going to take two seconds and you’ll learn not to run your mouth any way you want, especially when in the presence of someone like me” Johnny threatened.Satyre looked back at him and chuckled, making the vein on his forehead throb in anger.Because of the rank of Dallihand that they hold, all four of them have been respected all their lives so for Satyre to be acting like they weren’t that important, rubs Johnny the wrong way.“Alright then, shall we move over to the testing ground? But before we do, would you like us to allow you to go get anything you would need from your possessions, lady Satyre?” Pluck asked.Satyre looked at all four of her opponents then she shrugged “There’s no need for any of that. I’m prepared enough as is bu
"Looks like Johnny was right all along, the test would be over in two seconds" Pluck said as he clapped energetically.He was having a lot of fun."That was an amazing first test lady Satyre but for next time's sake, can you not be so fast so that I can keep up? I couldn’t even see what happened until Johnny went flying" Pluck said."Sure thing. Since you've given me your time I might as well make this more interesting for you. However, it's up to your Dallihand to hold out long enough" Satyre said and Pluck smiled.“So, are we doing this or what?” Satyre asked and both Queen and Ruby looked at each other before turning to her and frowning.The two of them stepped forward, leaving Cassandra behind with Pluck.Cassandra would step away to go wake up Johnny while Pluck watched the fight that was about to take place with all his focus.As they surrounded Satyre, Queen and Ruby revealed their weapon which was strapped beside their belt buckles. They brought it out, ready to teach Satyre a
"What's it going to be Cass? All three of us already lost so it's basically decided at this point? You still want to have a go?" Queen asked and they all looked at Cassandra to know what her answer was going to be. Satyre from where she was standing listened to the discussion they were having. She wanted to know if she should remain standing there and waiting for a test that might or might not take place or regroup with them so that they can leave. Cassandra took a good look at Satyre, thinking about the feats and skills she's showcased the last few minutes and there was only one answer she could come up with. "Win or lose, there's no shame in trying," Cassandra said and the others didn't react negatively to her answer. They more or less expected her to be curious enough to want to challenge Satyre as well. If each of them has a defining personality then Cassandra's would be curiosity. "That's what I like to hear!" Johnny said laughing as he pats Cassandra's back "Go get revenge o
While Satyre was perplexed and fixated on how could she have possibly ended up losing the test, the others aside from Cassandra were all shocked that she won.“After winning the first two rounds I couldn’t predict what hand she was going to make again. I lost five times in a row but how? I’m Satyre, I never lose” Satyre mumbled, looking at her hand and contemplating what happened.She ran the whole thing again and again in her head but it didn’t make sense. Anytime she would predict what hand Cassandra was going to make it always ended up being wrong.Suddenly, Johnny started to laugh before hugging Cassandra and raising her body a couple of feet then dropping her down.“That’s our Cass for you, always doing the unpredictable and somehow you managed to do what none of us three could. You beat the white monster” Johnny said.Queen who was observing Satyre break down mentally from having lost so badly, grunted.“Is this your first time losing something Lady Satyre?” Queen asked, pulling
"What's that supposed to mean?" Satyre asked as she turned to face Pluck."You're smart Lady Satyre so you should know exactly what I mean when I say walk out those doors and it'll be the end of any relationship we've formed," Pluck said.Satyre observed Pluck very intently, looking around him and noticing the difference in how he stood, sounded, and other things and it only meant one thing."I've seen the master of the mansion enough to know what he's like. So which is the previous rulers are you?" Satyre asked and Pluck smiled."The second king of this nation. I've been told that I have a way with words and my prowess in persuasion is high up there" Pluck smirked and Satyre sighed."Like I was about to say, wherever your master is, if what he's facing right now is that big then it'll be too late before you get to him. However and for the sake of argument, let's say you do happen to meet up in time and you managed to protect him like the Dallihand that you are, the problem is that wh
“Lady Satyre, does that mean that you’re staying?” Cassandra asked hurriedly.“Since options one and two weren’t things my master would want, option three turns out to be the best. Thanks for showing me a path I didn’t think of, Cassandra” Satyre said, making Cassandra blush bashfully.“Huh? Why’s your face all red? Are you sick or something?” Pluck asked Cassandra, placing the back of his hand on her neck to check her temperature and the others started chuckling nervously.Queen pulled Pluck's hand “Let’s go, Master, I’m sure it’s the heat from lights shining on her face that’s making it red. Right guys” “Right, that’s it,” The others said haphazardly until Pluck gave up his assumption of what the cause of Cassandra’s red face was.Queen, Pluck, and Ruby went to meet Satyre by the door and Johnny who was behind Cassandra placed his hands on her shoulder and leaned closer to her ear.“Listen, Cass, this is only a temporary arrangement so don’t go getting attached to the monster, or e
