Chapter 331: Her Changes

"People saw him fight. The tide ended when he arrived."

"How is that humanly possible? He He received no Blessing from the Goddess. How could he end the tide?" Victoria continued asking.

"Again, these are claims from people who were there. They said that he brought his people with him and all of them ended the tide." Martin was getting impatient. He understood that this was impossible to believe, but was it really necessary for her to react like this?

Victoria said nothing. Rather, she had nothing else to say. She had sensed Martin's discomfort about the question and thought this must be because of the current rumors going around. She assumed that the rumors about how the Duke stopped the tide were also going around the streets of Aster.

If that was the case, it was only right that Martin, who was a very important figure in Aster, would feel discomfort about the matter.

Meanwhile, the same conversation was also happening between Rosalind and Lucas.

"They wanted you to go to Aster?" Rosalind could not believe what she just heard. How could the Royal Family ask for help from Lucas? After all that they did, after they literally abandoned Wugari and the North, they were now going to summon him after the incident in Rakha Kingdom?

Rosalind could not exactly say that she expected this immediate outcome.

"Naturally, they would not let anyone outshine them." Lucas was sitting by the window while she sat on her bed, just a few feet away from him. Earlier, the two decided to go back to her room instead of staying in that small library.

Rosalind narrowed her eyes. Suddenly, an idea came into her head.

"What do you think will happen if the tide will end once you arrive in Aster?" Rosalind suddenly asked. Of course, she already knew the answer to her question. The effect of such a scene would be devastating, especially to the seven families.

If that happened, their reputation would surely change.

"Then I would be receiving rewards from Aster," he was smirking at her. It was as if he could already read her mind.

"I was not thinking about the gold," Rosalind cleared her throat. Really, she was not thinking about the possible rewards. She only wanted to think about Federico and Martin's reaction.

It would be very fun.

"Although, I do not really mind keeping the relic until the beasts destroy Aster Empires," Rosalind added out of nowhere. She then used her hand to cover her mouth. "I did not mean to say that." She really did not.

She blinked at him.

"You should probably leave," Rosalind said. "I guess I am getting tired."

"Are you alright?" he already stopped laughing. He looked rather worried and she did not like that look on him. A part of her wanted to touch him to assure him that she is alright. The other was telling her to ask him to leave. She does not need this right now.

"Yes, please. I think I am going to sleep." She had been awake for 24 hours. The sun is already up outside. She knew she was getting really tired.

This time, he said nothing. He just stared at her as if he wanted to read what was inside her, as if he wanted to take a peek at her soul. She faked a smile.

"Then I will see you tonight. We are leaving for Aster then."

"Of course," Rosalind's lips thinned. Then she watched as the Duke made his exit.

Seeing him gone, Rosalind immediately rushed towards the mirror to check her reflection. Earlier, she felt something really really strange. It was as if she was watching herself outside of her body when she spoke those words.

Naturally, she knew this was impossible. She stared at her appearance. Her hair had now become gray and she looked so different from her original appearance when she was still in Aster. Right now, no one could tell that she is Rosalind unless, of course, they knew what she looked like in the past.

Still, the changes were scaring her.

Something like this did not happen in her past life. Was it because she did not use her dark Blessing then?

Did this mean that the changes were caused by her dark Blessing?

So, I have a very unreliable internet connection right now and I cannot even open Google docs to give my unedited chapters to my proofreader. T.T I will update everything once I am back tomorrow.
