Kneeling at the top of her bed, wide green eyes blinked and stared at a pair of glowing emerald eyes. A soft gasp escaped from the widened thin pink lips of the horned being named Maleficent. Mirroring her agape lips, her eyes widened upon facing the being who she protected and nurtured since she stepped foot inside Transylvania Academy. The zaps of lightning and the roars of thunderclaps were silenced – muting the external factors around the two.
“Kruu?” The green-eyed creature tilted its small and horned head to the side as if it was assessing its master.
Cent felt her heart thumping like crazy – like she was being engulfed with nervousness and excitement in one go. She did not know how to react if whether she should scream her lungs out or she should just bawl her eyes out. The gnawing sense of familiarity the moment their ey
Thank fuck that I changed my pajamas after receiving a magical floating letter in my room.Clad in her gothic dress and lacy stockings paired with a wedged shoes, Maleficent’s straight black hair, and cobalt-colored eyes were the exact opposite of her glowing green eyes that matched the color of her teardrop-shaped brooch. Her horns and wings were displayed as she walked with confidence at the center of the hallway – rendering any creature from the three great dormitories speechless. Her stance reminded them that even if she was rumored to be the weakest among the Halflings, she was able to kill an angel without any qualms. Three Slaughter butterflies flew around her as she walked towards the headmaster’s office.A hundred pairs of eyes looked maliciously at her. The depravity they gave off engulfe
The meeting with the guardian angel, Gabriel, continued with Cent being heavily guarded by her father. The Grand Duke of the Nether World was emitting a tremendous amount of demonic magic around her ever since the young-looking father of Angelo stepped into the headmaster’s office. The moment the guardian angel stepped foot inside, the temperature dropped. Cent could practically hear the gears turning inside her father’s mind as she observed his predatory eyes met Gabriel’s cold ones. It was as if there was a long history of enmity between them although it was already given since they were from the two opposing races that were meant to harm each other.“Gukasho, take Cent outside.” Maleficent heard the finality from her father’s words. It stunned her for she was once reminded again that before he became her father, he was a feared demon lord from the
“M-My lady, are you sure that what happened to your room was not on purpose?” Gukasho, who was munching the salmon sandwich tiptoed and leaned towards her. He covered his mouth that doubled the size of his fist-like eyes and whispered towards Maleficent, who was fidgeting while watching her father walked around the room. Debris was scattered on the tiled floor. The crumpled furniture laid like broken toys smashed by a child’s tantrum. The wallpapers were torn as if a werewolf visited her overnight – though she did not know if werewolves existed in the Ambivalent Dormitory.Cent barely shrugged her shoulders. “The Basilisk smashed my balcony in the middle of the night. The next thing I knew, I was so pissed of that I could beat anyone before me to a pulp. Do you know the saying never pull a prank against a newly awake person? Well for me, it is to never pull
Blurred silhouettes that were hovering above her were the first image that Maleficent saw upon opening her eyes. The ache that spread around her muscles restricted her from sitting up or even moving an inch from her position. Her throat was parched as if she was exposed to a long drought and her lips were chapped. Cent did not know why she was feeling these as if she was dead tired from traveling though she did not remember what transpired after being swallowed by the black hole created by her father.Cent could not remember anything but one word that was whispered right next to her ear.“Interesting.”She did not know who uttered that word but the single word stuck to her like glue. Cent knew that if she exp
Clad in her usual gothic dress made of black lace and black stockings paired with black-colored wedge sandals. Maleficent’s long raven hair fell like waterfalls onto her back as she sashayed towards the dining room. The empty hallway that she walked past was decorated with paintings hanging to the dark-painted walls. The paintings depicted images of different creatures which were having a feast with the humans as food – at every apex of the center stood an image of a bat-like beast with a familiar-looking set of horns and pair of wings. Cent concluded that the paintings were the history of this mansion and were painted by her father. Aside from paintings, statues made of marble littered everywhere and the images were angels being stepped on by a winged demon. Instead of shivering, Cent felt like it was only natural since she dreamed of morbid scenes like these when she was still in the human realm also
RANCID CITY (the Capital City of the Nether World – south of the Imperial Palace) One day before the Festival under the Hallow Fields at the Grand Duke Beelzebub’s territories, with the permission from the demon lord of Gluttony himself, Maleficent together with Gukasho and Frankenstein traveled to the Rancid City. This time, they used the magic carriage rather than moving through the shadows in consideration for what happened at Cent the last time she used the portal made of shadow arts.The moment she arrived at the buzzing capital city of the Nether World, hundreds of Slaughter butterflies were released behind Gukasho and Frankenstein’s back – for espionage and information gathering, though one butterfly was sent to deliver a message. Hunger, on the other hand, stayed inside her shadow
Strong yet slender fingers were cold against the sizzling body of Maleficent. Her slaughter butterflies fluttered around her upon sensing her distress, their fangs that were ready to devour showed and glinted against the dark corner of the back alley he pulled her into. Cent’s body became rigid as she felt the hot breath of the proprietor against her slender neck which was exposed when her hair turned upside down with the commotion. Her glowing green eyes glowed like embers sheen that startled the bystanders that were about to come – something that she did not want to happen.Help me here, you idiots!“Umph! Hmph!” With glowing green eyes and hair that flung everywhere while her limbs flailed as she tried to reach out for the cowering zombies – the idiotic zo
A wave of azure hue engulfed Cent and Damon who were waiting for the spell to activate around their beating heart. But the cold yet comfortable wisp of unfamiliar magic intertwined with the hexagram around the two Halflings, eliciting a gasp full of wonder from Cent. “Stop playing and get this thing out!” Damon yelled again, his breath fanned over her head that made Cent scrunched her face with annoyance. Cent kicked his leg with all her might. “Hey, shut it!” Upon realizing that he was talking to someone else like a lunatic, Cent clicked her tongue as she glared openly at him – which he also met with equal fervent. Cent continued, “Are you going loco, huh? Stop yelling and accept that you’re dying with me.” Damon was about to retort wh
