'Death looms around you like a lost lover. Let's hope it doesn't consume you too early' the seer said. This was the fate Rachael had to face. At the age of 18, Rachael finally broke apart from her oppressive lifestyle. Ready to cut off people from her life, it was a new start for the 'villainess' like her. However, life had other plans for Rachael and things took a weird turn. Those who had been oppressive and abusive until now started to show interest in her. Her abusive sister suddenly claimed she was a Saintess from another world who had returned to save her from becoming an evil being. Her brother, who never looked at her before, suddenly claimed that he had traveled back in time and wanted to prevent the world's end and save Racheal. Her parents, who had been absent her whole life, suddenly started paying attention to her and not allowing her to unlock her powers. But the biggest change was from her childhood friend, one who proclaimed to have loved Rachael since his past life. His identity was a mystery, but Rachael was never bothered by it. Until the calm and secluded boy she knew from her past turned out to be the biggest threat the world had ever seen, making Rachael question everything she knew about herself and the world she lived in. ["So, the world ends when I die? Doesn't that mean I just have to live until I die of old age?" ] Rachael asked, hoping that she would get a positive answer. But the seer looked back at her with an amused expression. "Do you think you will be able to survive for long? Death looms around you like a dark shadow and soon, it will claim you as his own." ///////////////////// We will have a love triangle and a lot of twists. So buckle your seat-belt and get ready for an adventure.
'Focus. This fight had just started, so I need to focus now.'
Rachael told herself this, but she began feeling scared of her powers. A solid part of the array had disappeared, but so had the dorm room. Soon, her powers would devour places further away from this enemy.
The black fog that consumed the spell felt hungry. It was tugging to Rachael to feed it more. The hunger felt never-sating.
'I cannot tell if this hollow feeling in the pit of my stomach is mine or the fog. It is making my head spin.'
The world was going in and out of consciousness slowly. Rachael felt her heart beating painfully in her chest. The fog escaped the door before Rachael felt someone smack on the back of her neck.
The sudden sensation snapped her out, and that was enough for the chloroform to knock her out. Her consciousness faded, and Luka sighed out in relief. He had managed to escape his death by a thin margin.
