Four years ago in Davenmert Palace.A woman in her late thirties was hurrying up the stairs. Seeing how she was moving a little faster, it would be more accurate to say that she was half running.As she took each step, drops of sweat began to appear on her white and clean forehead, indicating that she had worked harder today.Still, her eyes showed a happy gleam, and her lips formed a wide smile.The woman with the beautiful face was Sabina Davenmert, Laura's mother, and the only person in the Davenmert family who loved the young Davenmert more than herself."My dear, always remember that there are more things you can do in this world than you think! And you can do them all, no matter what condition you are in!" That's what she used to say to Laura.Sabina always encouraged and supported all of her daughter's aspirations.Secretly, she even disagreed with her husband when he expressed his disapproval of Laura becoming a cultivator in the future.At the moment, she was very excited bec
Two days later.Knock! Knock!The sound of knocking could be heard from Laura's room door. Someone was knocking from outside."Yes, come in!"As the door opened, a slender woman in her forties entered the room. Two women of the same age followed behind her.They were all wearing long, grayish-white dresses, the uniforms worn by the Davenmert family's servants."Did Miss call for us?" the woman in front asked.Laura, sitting on the thick carpet spread out in a corner of her spacious room, did not answer immediately. Instead, she gave an order. "Please close the door and come closer!"One of the servants did as her mistress requested.The three of them then sat down next to the carpet where Laura was sitting.Since it was specifically designated as her meditation spot, Laura would take off her shoes each time she sat on the carpet. This was to keep the carefully selected sheepskin mat clean."Come closer!" Laura said again, gesturing with her right hand and tapping the carpet to indicat
In the morning, the next day."Father, can I go out for a walk? I really want to get some fresh air!" Laura begged her father to leave Davenmert Palace."Forgive me, my dear. I'm afraid I can't grant that," Alfsige replied, shaking his head. However, his gaze remained fixed on the documents in his hands without looking at his daughter."But Father..." Laura said. Her face grew dark as she heard Alfsige's answer."But why?" He asked."I'm already seventeen years old, aren't I?""And what if you are seventeen?" Alfsige asked again."Shouldn't I be allowed to go out now? Why won't you let me go just once?" the girl pleaded again."But you are still a little child to me! So I'll stick to my original answer," replied the head of the Davenmert family, still staring at the documents, seemingly indifferent to his daughter's feelings."Father, that's not fair!" Laura said in a slightly raised voice.Hearing these words, Alfsige's emotions almost ignited.He immediately stopped reading the docu
"Please, go away!" Laura said with an uncomfortable look on her face as the group of young men slowly approached and surrounded her.Hahaha!Hahaha!In addition to their incessant laughter, their faces showed a wild expression, as if they wanted the girl standing in front of them to be their own.Especially since it was the first time they had seen such a beautiful girl.In fact, Laura's beauty surpassed even the models and actresses they saw on television!At that moment, their gaze revealed not only the wild desire in their hearts.It also showed the pride of a hunter who had successfully found a precious prey.Then one of them lost his patience and reached out to touch Laura's cheek.But Laura quickly pushed him away."Hahaha! I like girls who act high and mighty like you!" the young man said as he tried to touch Laura's cheek again.Seeing the young man's increasingly rude behavior, Laura was about to hit him when two other young men grabbed her hands from either side.Hahaha!Hah
"Edward, are you okay?" Laura asked as the young man continued to stare at her without blinking."Of course I am! Of course!" Edward replied shaking his head. "You have nothing to worry about! Tonight will be just the two of us, my dear!"After finishing his words, Edward winked mischievously.What?What kind of answer and expression was that?Laura was surely shocked by Edward's sudden disrespectful behavior.The young man next to her didn't seem to be the same person she knew before. He was different!Laura didn't need to think any further. She had to get out of the car immediately."Fine! Thanks for the ride! I'll just get out here!"Laura said as she tried to open the car door. But her efforts were in vain, because it was locked from Edward's side."Hahaha! You fool! You're lucky I didn't do something to you in front of them earlier!" Edward said mockingly. "Your life is in my hands now! Don't even think about running away from me!"What?Laura was even more surprised.She wasn't
For a moment, Edward did not hear an answer from the man."Huh! Bastard! It turns out that my suspicion was right. This guy can only bluff!" Edward muttered as he turned his body back to the car.But when he looked inside the car, the beautiful girl he had tied up in the back seat was no longer there."Hah! Where did that girl go?" Edward exclaimed in surprise.Before his surprise faded, another beautiful girl stood beside him. Unlike Laura, this girl was wearing a revealing dress that not only showed off her perfectly proportioned curves, but also exposed part of her cleavage, making her look even more sensual."Hello, handsome young man, I'm lost. Can I hitch a ride in your car?" the girl said, placing her hand on Edward's shoulder.Upon hearing the question, Edward fell silent. He wanted to say something, but the words got stuck in his throat.Edward was a level 8 warrior with the rank of an Eagle. That should have been more than enough to fight an ordinary Warrior.However, the gi
The next day.As the morning sun began to rise from the east, Laura opened her eyes and looked out of the window while lying on her bed.She had not been able to close her eyes all night.Her mind still couldn't forget what her grandfather had said before he left their house."Your mother told me that you are very interested in becoming a cultivator, but your father is against it. Is that true?" Alfonso whispered in her ear.Laura turned her face to the young man and nodded quietly.She might not have said anything at that moment, but that didn't mean she didn't believe him.After Laura had found out that Alfonso was her grandfather, her suspicions about him had disappeared. What else could she fear and suspect from him?"All right! Then I will ask Phaedra to help you. Starting tomorrow, she will visit you every morning to guide you in your training. How does that sound? Are you happy?" Alfonso whispered into Laura's ear again."Yes! Of course!" Laura said, unable to hide the joy and
After changing her clothes, Laura was ready to leave her room. But before she took a step to leave, her eyes were drawn to two objects on her dressing table."When you go out or are in a crowd, use something to cover your face!" Alfonso said at that time. It was true that Laura was different from the weak girl she was two years ago. It's just that he said that because his granddaughter had an incredibly beautiful face. With each passing day, her beauty grew.Now, at the age of almost twenty, Laura's face and body were even more captivating. "I'm not sure there's a man who wouldn't be attracted to you at first sight!" Alfonso said again.The man then held two objects in his hands. "You can choose this or this!" He showed them one after the other, changing hands.In his right hand was a veil. In this case, it was normal for noble women to cover their faces, like Archie did!Whereas in his left hand was a mask! Even more special, it wasn't an ordinary mask. It was exactly like the one us
