I will strive beyond this cursed bloodline!

Chapter 91: What is a [Soulscape]?

She...Dodged a bullet.

Well no, not really...

If she was going by the feeling in her chest...Then she got hit by one and in turn, was thrown out of the danger she had been.

Somehow [Something] had tampered with her [Mind], a quick check showed that the [Mind Shield] her mother had crafted around her was still in effect...

And yet... She had been affected by something. How was that possible? She didn't know, nor did she know how she had been saved. A deluge of information flowed into her mind, memories of what had happened after she canceled her [Shift] and returned to her normal blonde form.

Memories of what she had done and how she had tried to nudge the [Taint] out of her system...Only to find nothing. Memories of how she had been relieved about how she wasn't affected...

And then...Memories of her sense of [Self] being mutilated...Memories of how she got shoved into a metaphorical Jail in her subconscious...Memories of how she had acted after that, how she blatantly ignored the signals of how something was wrong...

Memories of her addled mind weaving the mana to fix and hide the signals of black cracks in her skin...Memories of how she had flawlessly cast an illusion over her eyes to hide the red blinding color of her eyes...And in turn only leave a star-shaped symbol in her pupil to hide the obvious signal of [Corruption].

And if that wasn't the worst of it...Then was how she had summoned all the dragon scouts and thrown them into the shadows, were they wounded up bound in chains, they all listened to [her] and retired to their mansion in her soulscape...

No one fought back, neither Beatrice...Neither Nyx...Neither the silent and always loyal Sebastian.

She couldn't help but curse to the high heavens, and that wasn't the worse...No sir, not by a long shot.

Then the memories of the next day came...She almost buckled over by the mere fact that her memories started to be tainted by a pink color, the way she looked at her Rossie...

The sheer possessiveness the mimicry of Elizabeth had...It made her shudder, her mind had been full of images of both girls...In very, very dangerous nonfamily-friendly watchable settings.

And she [Felt it], the emotions that had been in [her] mind during those times...The rush of adrenaline her [body] felt while it was taking out her clothes while walking to the bathroom...

The way [she felt] while taking a shower knowing [Her Rossie] could see her from the dining room... [She] felt no shame, [she] even relished on the idea that someone could come into the apartment and [see her].

The idea that [Her Rossie] would rush to [Protect her dignity] made her feel even better!

Because [She] was sure that Rossie wouldn't allow anyone else to [see her like that], and that made her even feel better!

"...MOT#ER FU$#ER!" Said the blonde girl after centering herself and finished absorbing the memories that had been left in her.

And for good measure, she kept swearing a storm while walking from one side of the sidewalk to the other, the people started to walk to the other side of the street in order to avoid her, but she didn't take that into consideration right now... She had bigger problems right now.

Yoh Girly...You might want to change into another [Shift]...Might I suggest either [Alice] or [Shadow Empress]?

And then the stupid notification came in, if not for the tone that was obviously [Alexanders] she might have ignored it, but she still remembered his voice...
