'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.
'Rachael…flinched away from my touch. Why? What happened?'
Elias's mind was a mess.
He felt betrayed by Rachael's small action, and then he felt agitated for handling betrayed in the first place.
He was the one who insisted that he felt nothing for Rachael, and yet, he was also the one who wanted to be acknowledged by her the most.
Even now, he wanted to warp his arms around Rachael and pull her close to his chest.
His instincts were roaring at him to do what he wanted and pull Rachael closer to his body.
But Elias knew better than to do that. He did not want to scare Rachael away.
So, he allowed Rachael to stand while keeping a certain distance from her. He needed to be able to help her out if her legs gave out.
[Finally, kid! You scared me by fainting suddenly. I could not find your presence anywhere, but you were here. Hey, are you alright?]
Louch noticed how quiet and withdrawn Rachael was at that moment.
