Chapter 108: Not as His Daughter
Inside the guest room, I sat alone with one of the most powerful men in the Empire.Nile Remington.To the public, he was a benevolent Count known for helping those in need. The villagers spoke highly of him, and even the servants of the Remington household regarded him as an exemplary noble.But that was only one side of him.He was also the head of the Black Sovereign Order, an organization operating from the shadows, far beyond the knowledge of ordinary people.And I was probably the only person in this room who knew it.Nile sat across from me, observing me with a relaxed yet attentive expression. He wasn't trying to intimidate me, but his presence alone made it difficult to forget who I was sitting before.Even with all the memories I had inherited from my previous life, facing him as his biological daughter felt entirely different."So, what would you like to talk about, Zinnia?"His calm voice broke the silence as he leaned back in his chair.I lowered my gaze.How should I app
Chapter 107: The Patriarch's Visit
"Speak of the devil."My aunt's voice pulled my attention away from the village.She was looking toward the entrance, where a carriage escorted by several mounted guards was making its way along the dirt road. The villagers had already noticed its arrival. Some stepped aside to clear the path, while others gathered outside their homes, curious about the sudden appearance of a noble carriage.I recognized the crest painted on its side.The Remington family."Who are they?" I asked, though I already had a suspicion.My aunt closed her eyes and let out a tired sigh."That piece of shit."Oh.I immediately understood who she meant.But why was he here?I watched the carriage approach, its mounted escorts keeping the road clear."Why is he visiting this village?"My aunt glanced at me, her expression turning bitter."Perhaps he feels guilty. That man always claims he's here for charity, bringing food and supplies for the villagers." She crossed her arms. "But I know better. He's not doing
Chapter 106: Nile Remington
The blinding darkness faded, and a new world slowly came into view.For a moment, I felt as though I were falling through an endless void. There was nothing beneath me, nothing to hold on to, and no way to tell which direction I was moving. Then, without warning, the sensation vanished.I opened my eyes.A clear blue sky stretched above me, and the morning sun warmed my face. Grass swayed gently in the breeze, carrying the scent of damp earth and flowing water. Somewhere nearby, birds chirped from the branches of a tree.I slowly sat up, staring at the unfamiliar surroundings.Where was I?My gaze fell to my hands.They were small.I turned them over, examining my tiny palms and short fingers. The sleeves covering my arms belonged to a child's clothing, and when I touched my face, even its shape felt unfamiliar."No way..."I scrambled to my feet, nearly losing my balance as my smaller legs struggled to support me.I had become a child again.Judging by my appearance, I couldn't have b
Chapter 105: The Truth She Must Carry
The darkness swallowed everything.One moment, I could still hear the professors shouting and feel my shadows trembling beneath my feet. The next, every sound vanished, leaving me suspended in absolute silence.I tried to move, but my body wouldn't respond. My arms and legs felt like dead weight, and I couldn't reach the shadows I had spent years learning to control.What was happening to me?Hello? Can anyone hear me?My voice echoed into the darkness, but no one answered.Then I noticed a girl standing a short distance away.Her black hair fell loosely around her shoulders, blending into the surrounding void. Her hollow eyes held none of the warmth I would have expected from someone so young, but it was the pity in her expression that unsettled me most. She looked at me as though she understood my pain better than I did.I tried to approach her, only to realize I couldn't move at all. I wasn't even sure I was standing. I seem
Chapter 104: A Lie Worth Believing
"Vice President! Something has happened at the emergency teleportation chamber!"Samantha Remington looked up from the supplies she had been sorting. A student stood in the doorway, panting, his uniform covered in dust."What happened?""It's Zinnia Elrod! She's attacking people at the teleportation chamber. Several students have been injured, and the professors are struggling to contain her!"Samantha went still."Zinnia?" Her eyes widened. "Where's Emil?""I don't know, Vice President. He's with her, I think."She abandoned the supplies and hurried toward the door."Who's in charge here?"One of the council members stepped forward. "I'll handle things while you're gone.""Keep coordinating the relief efforts, and make sure the injured get medical attention. If you need help, contact the faculty immediately.""Understood."Samantha was already running.Please be all right, Zinnia. Emil, please...She raced through the damaged corridors, passing students who moved aside to let her thr
Chapter 103: Everyone Is a Demon
Before leaving the academy, I had one more person I needed to see.Samantha Remington.If anyone could help me get Emil home safely, it was his older sister. His father would know whom to call once we reached the estate, and I couldn't bear the thought of leaving Emil here any longer than necessary.With my Shadow Magic supporting him against my back, I made my way toward the student council office.The corridors were nearly deserted. Debris littered the floor, and scorch marks covered the walls where spells had struck during the attack. Professors hurried between the remaining students, directing the injured toward safer areas while distant voices echoed through the academy.I kept walking.When I arrived at the student council office, several students and staff members were moving between desks, gathering supplies and helping the wounded. Despite the destruction outside, they were doing their best to restore some order.I spotted Sa
