I pouted. For one horse, it’s too expensive. I still have things to buy and my money won’t be enough to buy all of those. “Sir, can you please give it to me for a lower price? I’m begging you, I still need to buy something and my money isn’t enough. If I will pay five silver for just one horse, I will be left with nothing,” I argued while holding his sleeves and trying to make him pity me. I even batted my eyelashes at him to make myself look adorable but he just threw me a stare of dagger.   “Aiyaaa, if you can’t pay my asking price then don’t rent it. I still have more customers,” he said while leaving but I immediately gripped his elbow to stop him. “Alright, I will pay for it!” I make a face and get five silvers in my bag. Am I doing the right thing? Am I really paying this huge for just one horse? But I guess I have no choice.  

“Are you done playing around?” he asked in a drunken tone. Like usual, he’s drinking again. I saw him holding his ancient bottle in his right hand. He is gripping at it for it to not fall on the water.   I also fool around him whenever he’s around. I played some pranks on him and tease a little bit during those times he went here to eat. I actually miss those times and wished he hadn't left. I breathed a sigh and a sudden memory crossed my mind. I blinked several times. The other day, I was lying carelessly on the bermuda grass for me to rest. I read an article about Alois Deveraux and how he became the first emperor of heaven in the Heavenly Realm. He acquired the throne because of his immense power. It can even be compared to the king itself. I giggled because of the information. He is way too strong. I guess he’s too skillful and unbeatable. He is also an expert in terms of creating weapon

“Everything happens for a reason. People come and go. You just need to choose the person you want to spend the rest of your life with. Choose those who can understand you well enough. The time will come when I’ll be gone too, I can’t protect you forever. You need to be brave in order to face your struggles and every battle. But also don’t forget to rest if you have to. If it’s breaking you, take a break and fight again but never surrender. Kiddo, in this lifetime, it is only yourself who will accompany you. Never become too dependent on someone. Be brave and strong enough to let go. Don’t forget that.” I heard Popsy’s words before I fell asleep. Because of the too much alcohol in my system, it put me to sleep. But despite that, I can still hear every word he said and it somehow made my heart ache.   I woke up and my head pounded. It is aching and I a

“Yes, mother. It’s me. I turned myself into a hairpin. This will serve as your protection. I will cast a spell so that no one can recognize you.” She tittered. I blinked several times because I was too stunned to speak.   “Really? No one will recognize my face, even the other Foxes?”    “Yes, mother. But—”   “What’s wrong?”   “You need to wear this pin all the time. And also, you need to be careful. If ever this pin got broken, I will go back to my original form and also, the spell will no longer work if ever that happens. Another thing that can make me go back to my form is when a strong force lets me out," she said in a warning tone. This made me alarmed. So, I shouldn’t let anyone touch this pin.

Chapter 7: Raven Faustus.    “Wahh~ it’s so beautiful. I felt like I was in a dreamland.” I was astonished by the mystical serenity as we walked on the long bridge on our way to the heavenly palace. The entrance of the heavenly realm somehow resembles those magical places which can be found in a fairytale book. The concrete bridge is floating above a group of clouds which has the color of the galaxy. It looks like it transported you in the milky way rather than the realm of heaven. Shooting stars and sparkling bubbles are also found in the area and it made the place too splendid. Upon reaching the gate towards the palace, the entire area also look grandeur. Several posts can be seen at the massive gate which holds the red colored flag of the palace. Intricate carvings are placed on the wall and it is outlined with gold which made it look more sophisticated. A long aisle which is surround
