Summoning a large solar magic circle, Everly lets it charge itself by taking in the light of the sun rays.
Without wasting any time, the lead wolf lets out a loud howl and Everly’s eyes went wide when all the wolves’ corpses rise.
Everly gulps exchanging cautious glance with her friends. The lead wolf growls and the lifeless wolf charges towards them. Not giving the corpse wolves any extra attention, Pluto speed his way towards the lead wolf. The same goes for Blaze.
Twirling her hands, Claire’s eyes went over to all wolves including the lead wolf. With a flick of her hand, water twisters shoot against the corpse wolves wiping them all out. The large water tornado lunge towards the lead wolf like a howling dragon.
The powerful impact caused the lead wolf to take half-step backwards, Blaze took the opportunity to throw dynamic fire slash at it. A gleam flickers in Pluto’s eyes as a sharp dark slit accelerate towards the lead wo
The village Chief of Lausanne looks gravely at Everly and Claire as he explains the events befallen to the land in the past decade. Everly can only watch him in awed silence as both she and Claire witness the man’s tale.“Ten years ago, Obarrow Land separated into two villages,” the Chief says, looking overwhelmed by the mere conversation. “My village, which is the one you’re in now and the village where my brother is chief.”Everly feels Claire tense up next to her. They don’t know any of these people and now there were more of them nearby. However thankful she was for them saving their lives, Everly still worried they might do something that damages them both. Maybe they had intentions to use them along the way.“Now, my brother and I aren’t particularly close anymore. I don’t know what his intentions might be now, but I know that I care about this village and I will protect it all costs.”It is then when Claire speaks. “I’m sorry Chief, but I don’t understand what we have to do wit
Everly and Claire immediately travel to Ross Village and spend half a morning searching for their friends.When they do find them, Blaze is busy helping the villagers by collecting herbs, something he has grown great at doing by the way the villagers speak highly of him as Everly and Claire watch him do this and handiwork on the village.Pluto is nowhere near as he does it, but they already know they’re safe because Blaze keeps talking about the way they have done heroic acts and how the villagers treat them with respect because of it.“They’re great. They think we are warriors of mythical descent that are here to help them in all. They tolerate any mishap we have because of how much we have helped them around. This village needs more people around to help.”It all seems a little rushed to Everly, what with the battle having been a mere two days earlier, or so. It wasn’t like she was keeping the time or anything, but it hasn’t passed that much time for them to be so respected so quick
Everlyblinked, finding herself in an unfamiliar and strange setting.The sun shone brightly in thesky, yetshe did not felt any warmthfrom its rays.She was surrounded by skyscrapers that she had never seen before, pedestrians adorned invarious types of clothing that were alien to her. People walkedfast on the street and talked into a tiny rectangular device. Her eyes went over to the large screen that hangedon one of the modern buildings.'Is this how the afterworld looks like?' Everly couldn't help but wonder.Curious, Everly flew near the screen.Yes,Everlyflew she wasa fairy. But now, she wasmerely a wandering soul.The only good part about being a soul was that she can flytowherever she wants even without her fairy wings.She stared at the k-pop idol group that was broadcasting through the screen. Everly tilted her head and watched what
Golden rays of sunshine danced through the floor-length window and trickled onto a peach-haired girl, enveloping the girl in a warm cocoon. Birds chirped faintly outside and fresh dewdrops glittered over the wild array of blossoms that peeked above the windowsill. Tiny rainbows danced throughout the dewdrops, flooding the interior of the café with rays of soft color.The pedestrians that passed through the café all wore smiles on their faces, basking in the warmth from the sun’s ray and the chime of the fluttering birds. It was a beautiful morning and could not have been a more perfect Summer day. However, inside the café the peach-haired girl felt as if she were standing in the middle of the North Pole. The blood that ran through her veins had turned ice cold and her body emitted small tremors.“Everly, can I have my coffee, please?Everly’s body continued to quiver, the feeling becoming more intense at merely hearing the
“Please…please don’t do this…no…n-no…No!!!” Everly screamed, eyes flying open. Sweat dripped heavily from her forehead as she took in her surroundings. For a moment she sat there, chest heaving from the still present nightmare. She turned to flick on the lamp and looked around. Safe. She was safe. The silly plush banana on her bed lay haphazardly on the floor near her floral-patterned curtains, thrown from her flailing limbs. She reached across to pluck it up and squeezed it tightly to her chest. The nightmare had felt so real, so…present. Everly pushed the covers back and walked to the bathroom to splash cold water on her face. She leaned against the sink, finally looking up at her reflection as droplets shimmied down her face. Everly looked over her shoulder, trying to imagine the space where her wings should have been. She bit her lip and clenched her fists as a surge of anger rose in her. She would never forgive Edward for what he had done t
Everly honestly did not see this coming. The other night, she had just made the decision to flee far away from the characters in the web novel and had that goal of hers plastered on the wall in her room. To execute her plan, she needed funds which were why she continued to work hard in her job. She did not expect to be cornered by a group of thugs who grabbed and dragged her into an alleyway. She was on her way back from the grocery store after her shift ended at the café, what could have made the thugs thought she was rich that they would rob her? Is it that expensive ice cream in her bag of groceries? She shouldn't have caved in on her craving for that ice cream. Darn it! But, the thugs were unforgivable. The audacity of assaulting someone in broad daylight had Everly frozen in shock. “Let me go!” Everly cried, finding her voice. Her grip tightened around her recycled bag of groceries. The spiky-haired thug, who seemed to be th
“Fools!”Edward threw a glass of red wine at a scarred man and the cowering individuals behind him. The man lowered his head, liquid dripping down his shaggy locks. His eyes focused on the carpeted floor and it took all his effort not to show any visible anger.“You couldn’t do one simple thing I instructed, could you? How hard is it to capture a little girl!” Spittle flew from Edward’s mouth as he paced back and forth, chest heaving with rage. There was nothing gentlemanly about his demeanor now.He had planned to come to Everly’s rescue after his henchmen confronted her, but Everly was nowhere to be seen when he had arrived. The men he’d hired had been on their knees wheezing and looking dazed, wiping at their red pepper-covered eyes. Grunting in disgust, he eased their tears away with his magic and turned back toward his hideout.~ ♧ ~The sky was dark by the
It's been days since what happened at the alley. Everly couldn't help but worried about the boy she encountered at the alleyway when she was cornered by that group of thugs. When she finished her shift at the coffee shop, she always found herself wandered off towards the alley carefully poking her head around to see if she would by chance bumped into the boy again. Another part of her was also concerned that the group of thugs might catch her again, but as more days passed, she encountered neither the angelic-looking boy nor the group of thugs. Just when Everly thought the boy was just another passerby in her life and that she'll never meet him again, things took a surprising turn. ~ ♧ ~ Once again, Everly took a side track and decided to sneak a peek at the alley when she was on the way home. She was taken aback when a little boy crashed into her. "I'm sorry, I did not see you there." The little boy looked a little
