Chapter 2

Carol of the Bells - Lindsey Stirling


After 2 years later

 

 

       "Are you done?" Diana asked curiously. "Yet, I need to bring some magic scrolls and books," I said while browsing some magic books that would help us if anything happens. "Oh my dear, we are going to be fine," She said while looking at me and I smiled.

 

       She won't even know who will she meet in Obelian isn't it? "Here," I gave her the stunning gems. "May misfortune never reaches you," I said and smiled. "Pretty," She squealed in delight thus she hugged me.

 

 

       "Are we there yet?" I murmured while still sleepy. I rub my eyes spontaneously. Diana brings the comforters closer to me. "Soon, just sleep we will arrive shortly," She said while carresing my hair. Much better and warmer, I lean on her warm body, then drowsiness overcome me.

 

 

       "Sleep little child," She whispered while humming lullaby. 

 

...

 

       I wake up from deep sleep, Diana clearly is sleeping beside me. Her hand holds my eyes and I smiled at the little show in front of me. Carressing her soft blonde hair with affection voice, I said

 

       "You're beautiful. Athanasia resembles you a lot," 

 

       I sit down and slowly get up. The night still young, I need fresh air badly. The familiar scent suddenly hit me. There are rose near the palace. I walk out of the room, only to greet with familiar hallway that I see in the story. "It's the concubine's palace," I muttered softly and walked towards where the familiar scent is strong. It's the vast lake where you can see the hideous tentacles lotus still there.

 

       "Wild roses," I squealed. In my past life, roses and chocolate are expensive yet in this world no one appreciates them. I discard my shoes and walk on the grass. It's still night and chilly but I'm in need of fresh air. 

 

       My bare leg touch the lake and I smiled in delight. It's refreshing, I'm truly satisfied with the scene in front of me. Beautiful lake with appearance of moon. Something that I would never see in my apartment. Then, the small creatures hold my hand.

 

 

       "Fairy," I whispered and they smiled, totally understand my words. Suddenly, I heard the soft music, it's like the nature asking me to dance along with them.

 

 

 

       "It's my honor," I greeted the fairy and dance to my heart content. 

 

 

 

       "After this banquet, I would leave this place," I muttered while spreading myself on the grass. My hand reaches out to the sky. "May-"

 

 

 

       "Who's there," A hoarse voice asking and I immediately sensed the unfamiliar mana around. I should go before he catches me.

 

 

 

       "W-wait," He said before I stand up and dissapear out of nowhere, leaving pieces of mana around the lake. That's how Claude sees the brazen woman in his lake for the first time. He looks at the pieces of mana that were leaving behind.

 

 

 

      "One of those wenches isn't it?" He smirked. Now or later you will fall into his hands. Just matter of time.
