*Baam*
Alice stood up abruptly while slamming her hands on the table in front of her. When those jade-white hands slammed into the table, the table broke into pieces. Her pupils turned crimson and her purple hair started turning black. Her expression was cold, as if she was ready to kill someone. She emitted a dangerous aura while her eyes were full of killing intent.
Emily frowned, and a distressed expression appeared on her face. Aurora clenched his fists and gritted her teeth in hatred when she heard Alfred describing Shin's condition at that time. She could feel Alfred's emotions and the anger inside him remembering the past. She knew he wasn't lying. Because those were the same emotions she felt when she saw her mother dying.
When Alfred described Shin's condition, her mind automatically compared that with the memory of her mother.
While she was still thinking, she heard a dangerous but low grunt. "Who was it?"
Alice looked straight into Alfred's eyes are asked, "Who was it, Dad?"
"Who did that to Shin?"
"HOW DARE THEY DO SOMETHING TO HIM?!!" she yelled, her voice full of killing intent, sending shivers through the people present. At first, she didn't think much about Shin's past. At most, they are her enemies, because Shin hates them. But now that she heard Alfred describe Shin's condition, how can she bear it?
She still remembers the day when Shin was at his death door. That fifth floor of the Aston City Labyrinth. That was when she felt she might really lose him. She remembers the despair she felt. She stood they silently mumbling something.
"I will kill them!"
ƥandasnovel.com "Whoever it is!"
"I will make them pay with their lives!"
Everyone could see that Alice's emotions were a bit unstable again. Reina worriedly looked at Alice. In these days of contact, Aurora and Emily had already known how unstable Alice's condition was. But they weren't one to say anything.
Because Aurora felt she wasn't any better than her. Otherwise, she who just wanted to be a pianist won't just kill thousands of people in her revenge without any hesitation. She also accepts however she is. Because this is the path she has chosen.
Alfred wanted to continue speaking, but stopped seeing Alice's condition.
Even Mia, who was keeping an eye on the turbulent, chaotic energy inside Alice, couldn't help but worry about her.
[Alice...]
Shin stood up and gently hugged her.
"Calm down Alice. I'm alright now, see. We will make them pay for everything they did."
While speaking, he lifted her chin and gently turned in his direction. As they faced each other. Alice's cold eyes peered into Shin's mystic eyes and immediately melted. All her killing intent submerged inside her.
But the next moment, she heard a mysterious voice inside her mind.
[Do you remember?]
And the next moment, a head-splitting headache assaulted her.
"AAAHHHH!!"
Everyone was astonished by Alice's sudden scream. Reina jumped directly, holding her hand and looking at her worriedly.
Alfred was panicked. He didn't understand what happened that made Alice let out such a painful scream.
Aurora and Emily also looked at her with serious frowns on their faces. Not understanding what happened to her.
Shin didn't have any ability that could heal Alice. So he immediately thought of someone and opened Soul Space.
"Aunty, please come out."
Not waiting for his call, Mia's white silhouette appeared in front of everyone.
Aurora and Emily seemed to remember this white figure as Alice's summon. But they didn't understand why Shin could summon it and why did he call it, Aunt? Isn't it just a summon?
Although they had many questions, unfortunately, no one had time to answer their doubts. As everyone's focus was on Alice, who was screaming in pain, holding her scalp with both hands.
"AAHHHH!!"
Mia seriously looked at Alice's condition and immediately cast her advanced healing magic. With her current skill, even serious wounds could be healed in an instant. Provided there's enough energy.
But Mia couldn't see any wound on Alice's body, and sure enough. Even after the green light fell on her body. Her screaming didn't slow down.
"AAHHHH!!"
Mia looked at her daughter in distress.
"Aunty, what happened? Why is it not working?" Shin, who had some idea, immediately asked her.
[It's not a physical wound. I can't heal it.]
When Mia said that, she was already in tears. She bit her lips, looking at Alice, feeling her pain. Her heart was grieving.
'Is it a spiritual or mind attack?' As soon as that thought crossed his mind, Shin immediately activated his ability.
"Mind Control."
A wave of invisible mind energy entered Alice's brain. Unfortunately, it was repelled back because of some barrier.
'It's not working. Something is blocking my intrusion.'
Thinking of this, Shin immediately used Divine Energy, this time in place of Mana. He thought maybe it might work. Only Shin felt the golden energy flowing outside his body, trying to enter Alice's brain.
"AAAAHHHH!!"
Her screams weren't fading in the least. Maybe her painful screams had already woken up the whole neighborhood.
Shin kept on trying his Mind Control to enter Alice's brain.
"Just what is going on?" Shin gritted his teeth and put more energy into that ability.
Finally, Shin saw a white flash of light, and in front of him appeared a sanctuary that he was familiar with.
"Why am I here again?"
It was the place where the Adult Alice lived. But then his eyes flashed and in front of him stood two familiar people. The Adult Alice who lived in this sanctuary and next to her was his Alice in her dark transformation. The Adult Alice had her hands on her forehead.
"Alice!"
Shin tried calling out to her but then the scene changed and the next moment he found himself back in the living room.
"Alice?" He called out to her again while panicking.
At this moment, a soft voice came from beside him that relieved his anxious heart.
"I'm fine, Shin."
He saw that Alice was back in her normal form and her sanity was back. She wasn't screaming anymore and her emotions were also stable now.
"What happened Alice? Why were you screaming?"
Although Shin saw that scene in the sanctuary, he couldn't understand what happened to her.
When Alice heard Shin ask that question, her eyes flickered, remembering the small part of memory she received just now.
Shaking her head, she said. "I don't know. I don't remember."
Everyone looked at her with thoughtful expressions. The things that happened with Alice just now were too strange.
Reina was relieved that Alice was alright. Mia, on the other hand, kept on asking again and again whether she was feeling uncomfortable somewhere.
Aurora and Emily didn't show much change in expression, but both their tensed brows finally relaxed a little.
Alfred also didn't show it, but in his heart, he was relieved.
Only Shin had a small frown on his face as he wondered.
'Just what happened? Did she do something to Alice?'
Shin couldn't understand it. So he decided to directly ask questions from her. Unfortunately, he still doesn't know how to enter the sanctuary yet. So he can only wait for the next opportunity.
At this time, no one noticed that Alice had a sad expression on her face as she was looking at Shin. Then her eyes returned to normal, and she looked at Alfred.
"Dad, please continue. I want to know who did that to Shin and why?"
This time Alice asked with a calm expression, but the coldness in her voice couldn't be hidden.
When Alice asked that, everyone returned to the previous topic. Mia didn't go inside the Soul Space and stayed beside Alice, still worried about her.
Shin also decided to check Alice's condition later. Now his attention was also back to his father.
Nodding his head with a heavy expression, Alfred continued.
"As you know, Rafe Wolner lost his arm in his fight against Louis."
When he said that, everyone nodded.
"At that time, his life was in a critical condition. So the family used the precious medicine known as Black Pill."
"It's not a normal medicine. It is very rare and precious healing treasure, its effects are almost magical."
"So, Rafe, who consumed the Black Pill, recovered his arm and survived. Unfortunately, he lost a lot of life energy in the process. Because of this, his strength, as well as his life span, was reduced."
"Rafe's brother and his father, Reizer, tried many ways to help him. But it wasn't much helpful. Hence Rafe once again started accumulating Life energy, but because of his previous injury, the process was too slow for him."
"That's when Reizer came up with a plan and set their eyes on Shin."
"They separated us from Shin and attacked him."
"Shin, who wasn't a martial artist, was ruthlessly beaten up by Rafe and finally he pierced Shin's chest and took away his life essence, leaving him in a near-death state."
When Alfred said that, he clenched his fists so hard blood started seeping out of his palms.
