Chapter 79: Ominous Feeling 2
There had been a lot of changes since she came back and this was giving her an ominous feeling. Everything had been happening according to her plan yet she knew something inside her knew that something ominous was coming.
What would it be?
Rosalind thought about everything as she laid back down in bed. Staring at the ceiling, she recalled everything that had happened since she woke up and tried to see any loose end that might come and bite her in the back when she was not aware.
Sadly, she could no longer predict what was going to happen inside the Lux Family as she had already made some changes for her own future.
She bit her lower lip and could only think of one thing.
Victoria and her daughter.
Right now, Victoria was the only one who knew her secret, but Rosalind was confident that the woman would never reveal the truth for her own good. However, she could do something else like work a sorcerer to get rid of her.
No, Victoria was not stupid. Victoria would never attempt to kill her while she was still living inside the estate. She would not want Rosalind to accuse her and accidentally reveal that she had the Blessing. Then was it Dorothy?
Would Dorothy stoop so low as to work with a sorcerer to try and kill her?
Dorothy was someone cruel, she would not hesitate to play the long game just to win everything and get what she wanted. Did something change? Was it because of Dorothy's upcoming marriage?
"Milith" she called out. After a few minutes, Milith came running inside her room.
"Young Miss?" New novel chapters are published on
"I will go out for a few hours, do not let anyone inside my room," Rosalind said.
No one knows how old he was or how he arrived in the Empire. His name would become well-known in the future as he would try to kill the Emperor, Emperor Lawrence, but fail because of Rosalind's light Blessing. Or at least, that was what everyone else knew.
As the name suggested, light is the weakness of the dark and it was the ultimate weakness of a sorcerer.
"Hiyah!" She yelled as she let the horse traverse the darkness, her eyes closed. Her darkness made her aware of her surroundings and easily hid her from the prying eyes of the people who wanted to take advantage of lone adventurers.
After a while, she finally arrived in what looked like a dilapidated two-story house in the middle of what many people called the slums.
The sound of her horse attracted the attention of the two men guarding the house.
"State your purpose?"
"I need help," Rosalind uttered. "Only he can help me," she said.
The two looked at each other and one of them spread his palm. In response, she tossed them a few silver coins.
"He is waiting for you," the man said as he opened the door. The creaking sound filled the room and before she could even walk inside, the smell of something rotting made her scowl.
She covered her nose in disgust.
"What do you need?" a croaking voice reached her ears yet she could not see anyone else in what seemed like an abandoned living room full of webs and old furniture.
"I need you to find someone."
"Lady, finding people is none of my business."
Rosalind bit her lower lip. In fact, she had met Atior a couple of times in her past life. She had seen his face and had talked to her about some special 'cases' that the Empress wanted him to handle. For a moment, Atior was a very useful ally to the Empress, but when he made a mistake, the queen easily turned on him and accused him of trying to assassinate the Emperor.
