Rosie's Games

Chapter 355: Kill! Kill! Kill!

Dorothy Lux started chewing on her lips the moment she arrived inside her room. She glanced at her appearance in the mirror and narrowed.

How could it be Rosalind Lux?

While the others could not recognize her because of the changes on her face, there was no way that Dorothy would not. She could smell the Blessing coming from her.

Martin and the members of the seven families could not smell it, but the smell of light and dark around her was so thick it was almost suffocating her!

"She needed to die," a chorus of voices came out from her. Rosalind Lux needed to die!

Dorothy started pacing inside her room. The doors were already locked so she was not scared that her mother would walk inside and see her in this state. Even the windows were closed. The only thing illuminating her room were her candles.

"How is this possible?" the voice spoke. "Someone who received the dark and light Blessing should not exist!"

"Why?" Dorothy asked in a normal voice.

"They are cursed! They are cursed! They must die! Perish! Forgotten!"

"But she is alive…." Dorothy spoke.

"That man… the one next to her is protecting her. You must kill her."

"How?" Dorothy spoke. If the Duke was the one protecting Rosalind then it would be very hard for her to kill that woman!

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" the voice started chanting. "You must deal with her at once! She is a danger to us all!"

"She is a danger! She must die!"

"The one who bears the light and the dark must die!"

"Just like the old one!"

"Then how?" Dorothy finally answered the voice.

"You cannot let her recover her Blessing. You cannot let her control her abilities! You must end her at once!"

"How!?" Dorothy asked, clearly frustrated by the situation.

"The Duke… the Duke is the key…"

"What?"

"He is capable of killing the wielder of the light and dark Blessing!" the voice answered.

"That would be hard. You just said the Duke is protecting her."

"Then do something about it!" the voice hissed. "Whatever you do… you must kill! Kill! Kill that woman! Kill! Kill the bearer of the light and dark Blessing!"

But how?

Dorothy frowned. She took a deep breath, a sinister glint flashed in her eyes. Then she smiled a smile that did not reach her eyes. josei

Without having second thoughts, she removed all the clothing that covered her body, revealing what looked like a deep gash of wound on her back.

The wound was oozing with a mixture of pus and blood.

It was just a few minutes of being near someone who could bear the light and dark Blessing and this physical body already received a wound like this!

How infuriating!

If this kept on going, there was no way that they would be able to move into this side of the world.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" the voices echoed once again.

That's right, the only way for them to move into this place was… to kill that woman!

.......

2 days later

"Where is she?" Ena Thun stood in front of the carriage, her eyes ablaze with rage. "Give her back!" Rosalind and the others were already entering the northern territory when she suddenly appeared out of nowhere. She looked clean and decent, yet something about her felt ominous.

Seeing this, Deny approached carefully.

"Your Blessedness…" Denys bowed. "May I know—"

"Duke Rothley… come out of the carriage!"

"Your Blessedness—"

"I want to talk to the Duke!"

"Your Blessedness, I don't think this would be an appropriate place for—"

*BANG*

A bolt of lightning landed just a few inches away from Denys.

"I said I want to talk to him."

"Denys it's fine," a woman's voice responded. Then the carriage door opened and Rosalind walked out, smiling.

"Your Blessedness…" she curtsied. She then lifted her head and smiled at Ena. "I have missed you."

"Where is he?"

"Unfortunately, the Duke had other matters to attend to."

"I know he is inside the carriage."

"No one else is inside the carriage but me," Rosalind said. She was not standing that far from Ena yet her face looked calm— too calm. This immediately made Ena suspect that something was wrong. "May I invite you inside the carriage? Perhaps we can talk over tea?"

Ena's face contorted into an ugly scowl. For a few seconds, she said nothing. Then she scoffed and walked inside the carriage.

Just as Rosalind said, no one else was there.

However, Ena was not dumb. By now, all of the seven families knew that the Duke could teleport. He must have found a way to make a sorcerer change some relic for his benefit!

Naturally, the others also wanted whatever it was that was making the duke teleport.

This was another reason why Blaize and Quarris wanted to work with the Duke.

Ena watched as Rosalind gracefully brewed tea without saying a word to her. She scoffed and looked away. Since Rosalind already showed herself. Departing without achieving something would be fruitless.

Moreover, this woman was a sorceress… a unique one. Almost immediately a plan appeared in Ena's mind.

"I heard that he left Aster with you?" Ena asked.

"Yes. However, he had other things to attend to," Rosalind answered. Her gentle voice only made Ena more irritated. She had been looking for Lurea for a few days now and that meant less sleep. While she was exhausted, she did not stop.

Her last resort was threatening the Duke to give Lurea back.

She stared at Rosalind.

"What?"

"The beasts…" Rosalind said. "Rakha needed some information about them and we agreed to collaborate with them. Some Kingdoms have been very curious about the beasts as well."

Ena narrowed her eyes. First the Blaize and the Quarris family. Now, many Kingdoms are reaching out to Wugari.

After a while, Rosalind handed her the tea. She accepted it but did not say a word of thanks.

"You probably know what I am talking about," Ena said. After all, Rosalind was a sorceress. Someone very good at acting like a fool. "Where is she?"

"I apologize—"

*BANG* The spot next to Rosalind was hit by a bolt of lightning.

To her surprise, Rosalind did not even flinch.

"Your Blessedness… how could you ruin such an expensive seat?" Rosalind said. "The North is working so hard to earn every bit of gold, but you—"

"Where is she!?" Ena asked. "You must give me an answer or the next bolt with the end you just like how your pathetic maid died!"

This time, Rosalind stopped smiling. She placed the teacup on the table inside the carriage.

"Isn't this a little too much?" Rosalind spoke, her voice seemed a little colder. "I invited you to have some tea out of goodwill… and yet you"

"How could you invite me out of goodwill? You knew that the person who killed your maid wielded the lightning Blessing," Ena said as she slowly poured the contents of the tea on the floor. "Did you really think such pathetic fakery would convince me that you are the innocent woman that you want everyone to believe?"

"How rude," Rosalind said.

"Rude? If you want… I will show you what rude really means!"

"Your Blessedness… you are not exactly going to hurt me like… one of your people hurt my maid right?" Rosalind pouted, to Ena's irritation. How was this woman so calm?

"You—"

*BANG*

A loud sound echoed. One would expect it would be the lightning that Ena had been using to threaten everyone. However, that loud sound was actually Ena's body flying out of the carriage.

Ena did not even know what happened. One instant she was speaking with Rosalind, and the next she was forcefully thrown out of the carriage. Before she could react, her body hit a large tree. A sudden cracking sensation emanated from inside her, accompanied by a sharp pain in her lower back. She must have broken something!

She grimaced, still too speechless to even say a word.

What just happened?

"Ah… and here I thought someone was trying to hurt my woman," Lucas's mocking voice came from behind her. She struggled to look back, she could taste blood on her lips.

What kind of situation is this? Lifting her head, she looked at Lucas who was standing by the carriage.

"I thought I sensed blood lust when I arrived and thought an assassin wanted to kill my wife. I acted out of panic. I hope you forgive me, Your Blessedness."

Ena did not know what to say.

Clearly, the man's words were nothing but lies. However, the pain in her back was preventing her from saying another word.

She was a powerful member of the seven families!

How could someone humiliate her like that!?

She would not allow this to happen!

Lighting crackled in her fingertips. She glared at Lucas's smiling face. She came here prepared to teach him a lesson! The next thing she knew she was already at a disadvantage!

Did those two deliberately act like this so they could surprise her with an attack!?

.....

I was originally not planning to release a chapter today. My sister passed a major exam that could change her life! I was out celebrating with family and we are planning to celebrate the whole weekend! I am so happy for her.
