The Devil's Cursed Witch

The tale of a man who brings death and a girl who denies it. ---- On the haunted mountain in the kingdom, they say there lived a witch. She was born a princess. But even before her birth, the priest declared her to be cursed and demanded her death. They poisoned the mother to kill the baby before she gave birth, but the baby was born out of the dead mother—a cursed child. Again and again, they tried to kill the baby but she miraculously survived every single attempt. Giving up, they abandoned her on the haunted mountain to die but she still survived on that barren land— A witch ‘Why won’t she die?’ Years later, the people finally had enough of the witch and decided to burn the mountain. But the Devil arrived to her rescue and took her with him from that burning place, because dying was not her destiny even then. Draven Amaris. The Black Dragon, who ruled over supernatural beings, the Devil who no one wished to cross a path with. He hated humans but this certain human girl would pull him towards her whenever she was in danger. ‘Is she really a human?’ He took the human with him and named this mysteriously tenacious girl “Ember”, a piece of glowing coal in a dying fire. A soul tainted with vengeance and the darkness of hell, would rise from the ashes and fulfil her revenge. ------ This is the second book from the series of The Devils and Witches. 1st book - Witch's daughter and the Devil's son. 3rd book- The Devil's Betrothed.

Ember Asking Morpheus- "What Is Mate?"

Ember was going through the book she supposedly 'borrowed' from the King's study. She could read the contents and understand the words thanks to learning the rune language of the kingdom. 

It was quite slow, but she recognized that the book was talking about various magic spells, explaining what they were for and how to use them with various different diagrams. She could understand the words by themselves but the concept and the explanations were quite difficult for her to grasp.

"Amplifying magic… by changing the structures…? Will it be alright to simply memorize these? It doesn't mention how to use spells like the ones Gaia used. It talks about making strong magic, but I only know how to create an illusion to fool an enemy. Gaia can change forms to scare people away, but I only know one form. This book is really complicated. I have been re-reading this part multiple times but it still doesn't make sense…"

Ember pursed her lips as she flipped to another page.
