Irene The Lady Who Turned Down Fate - Chapter 195
In this world there are three recognized status of people, the commoners who rank the lowest, the nobles, the Royals and the temple which acts as a balancer between them.
This three status holders live in this world peacefully and respectfully buy there is also another type of person who live in this world but unlike the three holders, they live hidden in the dark not because they are some kind of criminals but just because they are the magic holders which are totally opposite to that of the magic used by the royals and priests.
They are the dark magic holders.
.
They look like normal people but nothing about them is normal thy are the worshipper of dark while everyone only preaches the light.
They are cruel and scary while the light bearers are full of empathy and sympathy.
.
But why? When both of them are magic holders though dark and light…why is there so much difference in between them?
Why one is worshipped the other is seen as a tabu?
.
This questions were the ones running through Violet’s mind as she was practicing how to control her newly acquired powers.
“AHH!” She shouted in pain as blood flooded down her mouth.
.
“That wicked Jessica must have done soemthing extreme again…ahh…” Violet said while standing up and looking at herself on the mirror.
Her face was gloomy and sullen with puffed eyes and dark circles underneath them.
.
It had been a week since the duke’s last birthday Ball and also 2 week since she handed that potion to Jessica.
The poiton which was making everything possible for Jessica and leading her to acquire everything she wants was made by Violet herself and it runs through her spiritual energy which is why she has been spitting lots of amount of blood since past few days.
.
“I told you this road will be tough for your body…now see you are losing so much blood.” A women with a scar on her left side of face said as she appeared in the room.
“I don’t think I asked for your opinion…so just scarm and let me be, I know what I am doing.” Violet said while wiping the blood off her mouth.
.
“Hah, so stubborn. Okay, do whatever you want. I don’t care about the process as long as the result is according to my liking…but still, looking after you is my responsibility so take this pill it will help you to regenerate your lost blood 3x faster.” She said while forwarding her hand in which suddenly a red pill of the size of a bean appeared which violet without any question grabbed and gulped down with water.
.
“Hey, you trust me don’t you?” That women said with a smirk.
“And what made you think so?…was it because I didn’t check the pill before having it? Well, if that’s the reason then let me clear…it’s not that I trust you…it’s just that I don’t care.” Violet said as her cold emerald eyes meet with that women’s grass green eyes.
.
“I know and that is why I care about you.” That women said with a smile and dissapered without a trace.
“Care…Hah, I have reached such a stage in life where I have no idea about who cares about le who curses at me…afterall nothing matters.” Violet said as she sighed and looked at the sky.
.
*Cough* *Cough*
“Lady Winter, your condition seems to be getting bad with time..” Hana said as she checked her temperature which had bene the same since the last 3 days no matter what medicine she took.
.
“Hana, don’t worry it just a small fever due to seasonal change. It would go way soon.” Irene said as she coughed while her head kept feeling lighter and lighter.
“Lady, but…I am still worried and—-as long ad you are sick I don’t think anyone would eat properly in this house.” Hana said as she closed her eyes and shook her head.
.
“Heehee, Hana you must be having a hard time…don’t worry I will try my best to get well soon–” She said as her eyelids slowly got heavy and she drifted to dreamland.
“Rest well, my lady.”
.
“(Where is this place? Wasn’t I in my room just now talking with Hana so how come I never up here?)” Irene talked to herself as she looked around and saw herself at the palace which was beautifully decorated with thousands of people wearing colorful and elegant dresses danced at the floor.
“What is this? Why am I at the palace?” Just when she said that, someone form behind called her name.
.
“Irene!” Hearing her name she turned around and saw Molly coming towards her with a terrified look on her face which clearly meant something bad happened.
“Molly—”
“Molly! What’s wrong? And where is Rose?” A voice behind Irene said which gave her goosebumps and creep at the same time but she got shocked the most when she turned around and saw herself walking past her.
.
“(What is this? I am here! So how come I am there too and why can’t they see me?)” Irene thought as she looked at them and then at her surrounding which were a little hazy and unclear.
.
“I don’t know—where she is–” Molly said as she shook her head and the entrance door suddenly opened with the announcer grabbing everyone’s attention.
Irene who was lost in her thoughts too got attracted by the sudden quietness in the air and as her eyes look the entrance. She got her second shock.
.
“How? Why is she there…” Both the Irene said in unison as they saw The crown Prince holding Violet’s hand and walking down the stairs gracefully as his partner when it was supposed to be Rose’s place.
“Where is Rose? Why is Violet there!” Molly losing her calm said as she looked around and saw Rose waking towards them with her heels on her hands and a cold look in her face.
.
“Rose!” Molly said as she ran towards her.
“Rose what’s wrong with you? And why are you here? When you are supposed to he with the Prince.” Molly asked as she looked at Rose who galnced at her once and then looked at Irene who was stunned to see her that way.
.
“Rose, why is violet in your place?” Irene asked as she grabbed her hands and looked at her in eye.
“Something happend…” Rose said with a cold look on her face as she looked at Violet who was dancing gracefully with the prince.
.
“( This is the same as the scene as that of the novel and by looking at Rose…it’s clear that there is no.way she will let off Violet…but why am I seeing all this?)” Irene thought as she felt a sudden pain in her heart and when she opend her eyes she was back to her original room with sweats overflowing her forhead.
.
“Hah–ha–what did I just dream about?” She talked with herself while touching her forhead which was now back to its normal temperature but unlikely Irene couldn’t remmber much of jer dream although she feels as she remembers it all but still she doesn’t.
.
“Werid…why can’t I remmber all of it? I just remember the palace, the crown prince…and the dance floor, Rose cold face…” She murmerd while hitng her head when suddenly Ash entered the room and rushed towards her.
“Why are you hiting yourself? Did the fever make your brain go nuts” Ash said as he scolded her while touching her forhead high unlike what he thought was cold.
.
“Hmm, looks like your fever is gone.” Ash said ad he smiled while looking at Irene who was lost in thoughts again.
“Sister! Wake up!” He said as he tapped on her cheeks which bought her mind back to the scene.
.
“Ashton, when did you come here?” She asked while looking at him as if she saw a ghost.
“…Maybe the fever really made your head go nuts, Dumbo I gave been here for the last 10 minutes taking like an idiot and here you are drifting to another land.” Ash said in a sulky tone which made Irene laugh.
“Okay Okay, my mistake I shouldn’t have drifted to my dreamland. But shouldn’t you be careful about your way of speech.” Irene said as she removed the blankets form her body.
.
“My way of speech?”
“Hmm, just now you used term which are not even discovered here.”
“Oh, bu why would it matter?”
“It matters…Ashton, you know this world is totally different form our old world so we should be carefull its better then regretting later.” Irene said as she patted his head.
.
“Okay…but where do you think you are going?” Ash said as he looked at Irene who was about to set her foot on the ground.
“My fever is gone, so I was thinking of—”
“Visiting Lady Willson?”
“–Yes– after that day I fell so sick that I didn’t get a chance to talk with her….I am very worried….” Irene said as she looked at the door.
