At that time, Hilise was in the garden.
It was the very place where she first awakened her strength.
It was a turning point that always happens every time her new life begins, so it was a very familiar place for her.
Softly, the light breeze shook the grass on the floor and stroked her cheek.
Currently, Hilise was lying on the green grass in the garden.
Her employees were frightened to see her lying on the bare grass. Not only that, but she also came out of the building in her pajamas only.
But she didn't even care about other people's eyes today.
She felt the warmth from the sun penetrating her body just as she felt when she fell from the window and lay underneath it some time ago.
They have been quiet since that day, too, Diego and Ricardo.
As she recalled the faces of the two people who had been contemplating, a faint cynicism arose around her mouth.
Diego, her father, couldn't leave the widow even after seeing Hilise was all right.
His face, looking down at her, stiffened like a man nailed down.
Maybe it wasn't Hilise, but the roses that covered her all around her in her sight.
The rose that Hilise had blossomed climbed up the outer wall of the building as if it could even reach the window on the upper floor.
On that day, she turned her head to Ricardo, who approached and stood next to her.
He looked down at her, lying in a pile of flowers with a face as white as his father.
When he heard the news that Hilise had jumped out of her window, he was in a hurry, as if he had been rushing. He looked distraught.
Now, when he looked back, he thought Hilise was funny.
Why do he make such a face?
Ricardo had already killed her once in the garden.
He left Hilise behind, facing a beast.
But now, why is he so surprised that she jumped out of the window herself?
In any case, the two have not communicated since then, and Hilise enjoyed it.
Especially her father Diego, he no longer visited or bothered her anymore.
Instead, he seemed to be tightly cracking down on the people with big mouths inside Inoaden and banned them from outside access.
So, they wouldn't let out the fact that Hilise had awakened.

"Sister Hilise."
Then, someone stepped on the grass. She heard of something approaching.
"What are you doing here?"
Soon after, a pure voice, like the song of a lark, rang in her ears. A huge shadow cast over her head.
Hilise slowly opened her eyes.
Her bright red eyelashes, the same color as her hair, moved gently.
The bright gold eyes that looked as if the sun was in them, looked outward.
Gabriel was looking down at Hilise with a friendly smile on her beautiful face.
Gabriel was quite surprised.
