Chapter 158
Her strength was gradually fading. Her already hazy mind became even more dazed and confused from the scent. Her body was already soaked and sensitized, anticipating the imminent s****l encounter. Completely contrary to her will.
‘What should I do? What should I do…?’
Roina faintly thought that before her mind became completely blurred. The man behind her had completely covered her surroundings with his energy. The energy of darkness. An energy that covers and swallows everything…
His tongue licked her neck and then bit down hard. She was as immobile as if she had been pierced by a venomous snake’s fangs.
He, who had been teasing her skillfully but more roughly and hastily than before, became leisurely now that he sensed she had completely lost her strength. Certain of his victory, he raised the corner of his lips in a smirk.
He embraced her waist and pulled her close to him. He lightly bit her earlobe and licked it. At the sensation of his tongue, Roina instinctively let out a “Haaht!” and arched her back.
“Don’t even think about escaping. You’re already mine. My nest,”
It was then. A sound of “Ugh” was heard from behind her. Roina, barely holding onto her fading consciousness, turned her head. The hand that had been holding her lost its strength, and she was released as well.
She staggered away from him, taking a step, then two. Behind him stood a woman with a flushed face, holding a magic tool. It was indeed a face she knew.
She was a maid she had no interaction with. That person had struck the back of Ryuhyeon’s head with the magic tool, her mouth and nose covered with a cloth.
“You, hurry, there’s no time!”
Erika shouted. Roina felt her mind snap awake and looked down at Ryuhyeon. He was crouching with his head lowered, his hands on the floor.
This was the moment. This was the only chance.
Roina instinctively recalled the magic that was like Quies’s song, which she had thought of earlier. She recited it, matching the timbre with her voice. Piercing through the scattered darkness,
The dormant magic was awakened. The magic surrounding the space moved, dancing slightly according to her will.
“What are you doing?!”
A maid with light purple hair was seen rushing towards her, enraged. Behind that maid, a man with braided white hair was approaching. To make matters worse, the black snake-like man stirred. He would awaken soon.
Roina, on the contrary, calmed her mind even more and concentrated. If this concentration were broken, it would be a failure anyway. If so, she had to give it her all. She blocked out the surrounding sounds and sensations and focused her senses entirely on herself. A warm wind seemed to envelop her.
Even the darkness permeating the surroundings responded to her call and formed a song. It had seemed impossible to move at all, but it was just that its nature was different; this too was something she could control.
Roina realized that. She also gathered all the sweet scents that had been clouding her mind into one place and made them docile. She soon regained a clear mind.
Ryuhyeon raised his head with an expression of anger, the likes of which she had never seen before. He seemed to be about to shout something, but time flowed increasingly slowly.
Enveloped in the warm wind and the song of magic, Roina regulated the time in this place. Her pupils shone with a golden light.
Eventually, the time within this space stopped.
“Yo, you… what are you?”
Roina lifted her gaze, which had been calmly lowered, and looked at the woman in front of her. A look of utter bewilderment was visible.
“The master of all magic.”
She walked silently past Ryuhyeon, who was reaching out his hand, and took Erika’s hand.
“Let’s go. Let’s get out of here.”
Erika looked at Roina with hesitant eyes.
“…Yes.”
Eventually, she answered as well.
