In an amusement park close to the port of Aoneon. The melodies of engines such as merry-go-round and horse carousel made the atmosphere lively. Even the people who were riding were giggling in joy, it was fun spending their time in an amusement park.
However, as time went on, the people started realizing that the noises stopped. All of them stopped walking and they were mesmerized by what they witnessed. They were all looking at a beautiful woman, the harmonious chirps of birds surrounding the woman could only be seen in a fairy tale, or so they thought.
"E- Elf"
A word that described her characteristics. The woman who was walking ahead was surrounded by lovely birds, the birds were seduced by her appearance alone. Her beauty was out of this world, her jade white skin, her bright blonde hair, her deep blue eyes, and her pointy ears. The people of the forest, history said that they were already extinct. Yet an Elf was walking right before their very eyes. The Elf was protected by dozens of tough men, and they were glaring at the people.
Still, they could not take their eyes away from her. She was beautiful. A lovely goddess.
Marianne Francine. She is one of the people who was blessed by her ancestors. She's not a pure Elf but the characteristics radiate on her. As of now, in their clan, she is the most who inherited the appearance of an Elf. But not only that, she inherited their natural talent too.
Elves had a strong connection with nature, and as a person who had dominant relation towards the Elves, Marianne had the power to control the element of water. She is a talented woman and her chances of being a pillar of the current world were high. However, it was still not enough, she felt like she was slowly losing her path.
Mariane and Scarlett treated each other as rivals. They both have elemental powers and their clans have equal standing. Whenever someone achieved a great goal, the other had to best it.
Despite looking beautiful like a flawless creature, Marianne was fuming in anger right now. It was not obvious because of her pale white skin but her clenching hands were bloodless because of decisive gripping.
It was hard to accept it but she couldn't kill a Third Class Aberrant alone. She tried fighting one but she failed, she even almost lost her life. Mariane was baffled why she couldn't do what Scarlett did. At the same time, she was mad that Scarlett's fame was beating hers. She was one year older yet she couldn't attain Scarlett's achievements. It was a humiliation for her, and of course, she couldn't accept it.
As a woman who was dreamed of by every man. As a woman revered like a God, she couldn't stand the fact that Scarlett defeated her. Scarlett killed a Third Class but Mariane could not.
Despite being furious, for the people watching her, she appeared innocent and calm. She was an Elf after all. Well, she's a human who had Elven blood in her veins and this blood was stronger than her human blood which caused her to have characteristics of an Elf.
In summary, Mariane is beautiful. She had this gentle atmosphere around her that made people become relax. She has that passive power because of her appearance. In opposite to Scarlett who has fierce crimson eyes, Mariane had calm ocean eyes.
Their appearance was the opposite of each other just like their attitudes.
Now, the reason why Mariane was here wasn't because she wanted to have fun. She heard that the owner of this amusement park had a unique power, she wanted to talk about the owner. Mariane did her best to outdo every people whom she treated as rivals but Scarlett was the one she could not defeat. That woman was above her, she hated to say it but the fact that Scarlett killed a Third Class Aberrant was already there. Mariane knew that she couldn't do that. She couldn't kill a Third Class with her current power.
To be honest, killing Third Class was not hard but it was a different topic if someone killed it alone just like what Scarlett did. The only people who could kill those strong monsters with ease are the 2nd Advanced and higher realms. Yet Scarlett did the impossible and Mariane was being suffocated by that achievement.
Mariane already accepted that she couldn't kill a Third Class Aberrant as long as she remains as an average TA User. She had to be a 2nd Advanced.
"I accept that she beat me with that aspect but I will defeat her in terms of breakthrough. I will be the youngest person who will become a 2nd Advanced."
She scoffed, taking every step with her stilettos. The scene was magnificent to look at. The person loved by nature, Mariane. The people swallowed the salivas stuck in their throats. With every move she made, they were mesmerized.
But it was sad to say that her dream of becoming the youngest person to become 2nd Advanced would never happen. Scarlett already achieved that feat. Well, she could become the second if she wants to.
'The intel said that the owner has a unique Term Attribute that could answer any questions. It says that every answer she said is always right. Although the harder the question, the answer will become vague. She's already 65 years old but she could still operate this amusement park so well Let's hope my diamonds are enough to fuel her ability. I don't want to return to this disgusting place.'
You heard it right, the owner was an old woman and her fuel was related to diamonds. Mariane didn't know what the owner does to the diamonds but she brought a lot just to be sure.
Right now, Mariane wanted to talk to the owner about how she could become a 2nd Advanced. She didn't care how much she has to spend. She is rich and she could have the resources she needs just by her words. Her clan put great importance on her because the Elven blood was thick in her. She had the talent to reach the greatness of their ancestors.
