She Belongs To The Devil

After hearing those confirming words from Theodore, Adeline nodded her head. There is always a choice available to everyone, how worse the situation is. It is in our own hand to make the right choice, to stay in the path of good. But the day Lillian took the life of an innocent servant to revive her son from the dead; she had chosen the path of evil.

Adeline softly hit her own head with her fist and scolded herself, "How can I have soft corner for Lillian? Yes, she had to go through a lot because of my father. But the evils that she has committed are multiple folds greater than what she had faced."

Adeline gritted her teeth and clenched her fist in fury. Her eyes were now full of determination. She looked at Theodore and spoke sternly, "I understand. It was Lillian's choice to walk in the path of the evil. She has troubled, hurt, and killed so many innocent people. And she has to pay for what she has done. She is not above the law and she is definitely not allowed to play God by doing whatever she pleases."

Theodore smiled and stroked Adeline's hair, "Now that's my woman. The day when Lillian comes at you with her full power to face you head on, I hope that you will be more than ready to face her."

"I assure you, when time comes, I will be ready to take down that witch." Adeline declared with unwavering resolve.

Lillian was getting overly conscious about her surrounding after Theodore had touched her and looked into her past. If it was any mere human then they would not have even noticed that someone was touching them. They would just think that they were recalling their memories on their own.

However, Lillian was able to sense the power of Theodore when he was close to her. And she was fully aware that she was not in control of her mind.

Until now, she had just used the negative energy from the world of dark spirits to power her forbidden magic. As there were no other witches inside the Palace to compare her growth with, she had thought that she was the most powerful witch and that no one could ever harm her.

But the chance encounter with Theodore made her scared; she was scared of an unknown power after a long-long time. And because of this insecurity, she was going through her old scrolls and books to find something, anything that would increase her power. She didn't care about the cost. She just knew that she had to be more powerful.

While going through her old stuffs and her collection of rare books, she came across a heavy book with black leather cover. In the center of the cover of the book, there was a circle which was crossed with red ink, signifying that it was a book of forbidden magic.

She always used to be a curious student of magic back when she was in her own Palace in Frostford. She would collect the rare books and go through every kind of magic spells.

Lillian would promise herself that she would never in her life use the black magic. And while going through the black magic spells, she would convince herself that she was just going through it to know the difference between usual spells and forbidden spells, to know why they were forbidden in the first place.

Now she was going through the same old collection which she promised was just for her research purposes. She was flipping through the pages to find out any magic that would give her more power.

And then there it was. Lillian came across a page where it was written 'Summoning Spells' in scary dark red font.

Before today, she had never considered using this technique because it meant she would be depending on another entity for her power, and she did not want her power to manifest from something other than her.

But today, she was seriously considering this option. "Maybe if I can summon an evil spirit like the one that touched me, that spirit might be able to see the other one and fight for me." Thinking this, she went through the description of the spell.

It was written that before chanting the spells, the witch or wizard would have to draw a magic circle on the ground where they wish for the spirits to appear. Inside the circle, a triangle needs to be drawn, with its edges touching the circle. The triangle represents the three worlds - Heaven, Hell, and Earth.

And after chanting the right spell for right spirit, the magic circle opens the door to the mystical beings. So within that circle, the mystical beings being summoned can travel from any of the three worlds and appear in front of the evoker.

The book provided summoning spells for evil spirits like succubus, ghoul, faeries, and even vengeful spirits stuck on Earth. And if the spell user was powerful enough, they could even summon the demons from hell.

And at the end of the page, a sentence was written in red "If the evoker wishes not to limit the mobility of the summoned by the magic circle then human sacrifice on the circle is necessary." Meaning, if the evoker wants the spirit to move freely, without being constrained by the circle, they had to do human sacrifices.

Lillian went through all the spells and thoroughly memorized them all. She wanted to be able to summon every kind of evil beings.

After memorizing the spells, she wanted to test the spells that she had learned on someone. She put on her trusty invisibility spell and then snuck off towards the forest.

The Queen went to one of the place where she could experiment on human without raising any suspicion. She was in front of the dungeon. It was almost midnight, so the guards were slacking off and were drowsy. And when the right opportunity struck, Lillian stole the keys and swiftly went inside.

She quietly walked past the prison cells, carefully looking for someone to be the victim of her magic test. She came across a healthy looking man in one of the prison, who was deep in his sleep. And a sinister smirk appeared on Lillian's lips.

Lillian quietly opened the cell's door and went inside. She drew the magic circle around the man, by putting him in the middle of that circle. Then Lillian closed her eyes and started the incantations. The dark aura started to form around the circle and after the spell was complete a dark figure was looming right above the sleeping man.

Lillian knew that the man was placed in the cell after he had murdered his wife. And Lillian had just called the vengeful spirit to see who appears. She wanted to check if the spirits from the other side could choose if they wanted to appear or would they just appear randomly.

The spirit turned toward Lillian and gave a sinister smile, "Thank you for giving me a chance to take my revenge." And then the spirit proceeded to kill the man.

Lillian immediately understood that the spirit was his wife.

After the deed was done, Lillian chanted a spell to close the spirit door and wiped any signs of her presence. She silently closed the door and returned the keys to the guard.

"I shall perform more tests in the coming days.." Lillian murmured to herself and then left the forest with her face exhibiting satisfaction.
