Beatrix had always been an innocent and kind-hearted person; simply getting the chance to meet someone like her felt like an extraordinary stroke of luck in my life."Ah, everyone will be arriving soon. It's going to be a sight worth witnessing—especially the arrival of Kaiser Fhenix." I would finally be meeting him after all these years."Let's see how much stronger he's gotten." The last time I saw him, he was weaker than me, yet he managed to defeat me purely because noble blood flowed through his veins."Naturally. Those of us who carry noble blood have a far higher affinity for mana than ordinary humans." My golden dragon was entirely correct; that was the greatest advantage of nobility."I thought fate had handed me a golden opportunity for my revenge." No matter what it took, I had to become stronger than everyone else in this lifetime and exact my vengeance. I didn't even care how it happened; revenge was revenge."You're right, but you shouldn't stir up too much trouble. Afte

ALEX"I don't think I'll care; it's a marriage I never wanted anyway. I'll just do whatever my family says," I muttered. I had never held any genuine romantic feelings for Laena; no matter how much she claimed to care for me, it was always completely one-sided."Do you really have to restrict yourself like this?" Tessarion sent a mental message."About what?""The stars," he replied."Yes, I don't want people finding out that I've managed to form my sixth star," I said. Generating a star purely from raw mana was much harder than I had initially thought. Crafting one from general magical energy was much simpler with my current physique, but manipulating raw, unrefined mana to forge a star required a whole different level of mastery."True, but I thought you didn't want people to see you as weak.""Normally, yes, but Tairel has started keeping a close eye on me. I suspect he's training Riyoda privately and is eager to test my current progress. He began training him specifically so he co

Ever since I met Alex, I had never seen him in such a miserable state. His body had grown terribly thin, and deep dark circles from exhaustion formed beneath his eyes. His handsome facial features were marred by strain, and I gently stroked his cheek with my hand."What on earth happened to you, my dear?" I thought. He was holding my hand tightly and refusing to let go."Beatrix, we must leave," my voice came out with great difficulty."Rey, you say we must leave, but where to?""Silvestia..." I murmured."Silvestia? Who is that?" I asked in astonishment.I tried to raise myself, and Beatrix rushed to help me up."The Succubus Queen Silvestia is calling for me.""What? Why is she calling you?"I didn't answer. "Take me there, and I'll explain everything that happened later."Beatrix looked into my eyes. She didn't want to do this, but she had to take me; if it meant I would get better, she had no other choice."Alright, let's go."I looked at her and smiled. "Thank you," I said. Beatr

ALEX POVEver since Noir entered my memories, I started seeing the same recurring dream, and my nights were utterly ruined. I would wake up suddenly, my entire body shivering violently."Damn it, the exact same dream again," I muttered. Today was no different from the others. I glanced at Riyoda's bed, but he still hadn't returned.I climbed out of bed and drank some water from the pitcher on the table. "What on earth is happening to me?" I kept witnessing the gruesome deaths of my family over and over again. I stepped out of the room and walked outside into the garden, letting out a heavy sigh. "The moon is so gorgeous tonight." There was a full moon tonight, and it shone so brilliantly that merely gazing at it brought a strange sense of peace to the soul. "I think I'm genuinely losing my mind." Right in front of me, beneath the tree, lay Baelon's lifeless corpse. His right eye was completely missing and hollowed out, allowing me to see right through to the oth

The upper half of her body was completely burned while the lower half below the waist had vanished entirely from the severity of the injury. Seconds didn't pass before my eyes flooded with tears at seeing her in such a miserable state."What on earth is going on here?!" I screamed at the top of my lungs in intense pain, my body incapable of moving even an inch from the overwhelming panic."Everything that happened... is because of you alone!" my Uncle Corlis's voice struck like a thunderbolt.Everyone leaped at me all at once to devour me mercilessly. I woke up suddenly, gasping violently and screaming with all my might, finding myself lying in a strange, unfamiliar bedroom."Alex, are you suffering from something terrible?" a familiar voice asked with intense concern.I turned to find Helena sitting beside me on the bed with a face full of panic."Yes, I saw a truly horrifying nightmare... My entire family was slaughtered in such a gruesome way!" I answered her in a daze and broken t

ALEX POVDays at the academy passed in a tedious and agonizingly slow routine. Even attending lectures ceased to hold any pleasure for me, to the point where I would leave them the moment they began, spending my time wandering aimlessly through the vast corridors.I sighed deeply and muttered, "When will these academy days finally end?" I longed fiercely to return to the Dragon Fortress and hunt monsters there, and I missed my uncle dearly. The times we spent together were always filled with excitement and fun."Hold on a little longer, kid. There isn't much left until the end of the semester," Raynor's mental voice reached me, trying to console me."No, even if time seems to pass quickly, it still feels like the end is never anywhere near," I replied in frustration.I had come to this academy with grand hopes, but all I did throughout my days was shuffle between grueling training and wandering around with no purpose. I stepped out of the building
