Few days later...
I volunteered in the temple along with Shan and Celeste
I became a babysitter for today's event
Tomorrow is the last day of Olivia's case, I have to prove I am innocent and find the real culprit
Now I think of it, Eloise died at sixteen in the novel, and her public execution has been all over the world
People think that they're in peace after her death
Now I think of it, the original Eloise never had magic nor skills in archery, and yet she died in front of many people
The only reason for her death is being the villain, nothing else
She died without any reason. Except for her ill-mannered attitude, Eloise is always been lonely and can't express her feelings to another person, the only way she knows how to communicate is by being mean and due to her daddy issues, she never has any feelings for the male leads, thinking that men are not worth risking for because they're ignorant, stupid and self-absorbed
The more I think about it the more I'm curious about whatever happened to her
After we helped in the temple, a priest approached me
"Lady Eloise, thank you for helping us today, I can see it's your first time here."
"Yes, I made up my mind to help those in need, I've also donated to charity for the past few days."
"That's great, we need helping today, it seems like we're lacking people, but it's a good thing you're here."
"Yeah,"
"Lady auntie!"
I turned around and saw Shan running towards me
"What happened!?"
"Celeste.... she... she's gone!" He started crying
"Please take a look after him,"
"Please take my underlings with you, my lady, I feel bad about this," the priest said
Stella isn't here either his highness, the only one I can rely upon is myself
"Ahhhhh!!!!"
We heard a tiny voice not so far from us
It's Celeste!
We hurried and saw her in front of the giant snake
The people working in the temple gathered and raised their hands
An emerald light showed up, it's the light of purity
The snake's skin is slowly thorned apart
The snake vanished in front of us and Celeste fell down
I came over to her and hugged her
"Celeste, are you okay?"
"Lady auntie.... I'm scared..." Her voice was shaking
"Don't be scared, I am here now."
"The... snake talked... to me..."
What?
"You can understand the snake?"
She slowly nodded
"What did it say?"
"It said.... she's back..."
"Who's back?" I asked
"Tha....lia"
She suddenly collapses on my arm
"Heal her please!" I begged
They carefully took her
The priest came forward, "We'll take care of her."
Shan clings to me
Did she say, Thalia?
But Thalia died four years ago, I saw it
How could she say she's back?
Moreover, how could she understand the snake?
