After Chaewon disappeared, Eunbi was left in a daze. She felt something for Chaewon and it wasn't right to her. It's not because someone already owns Chaewon. It's because she knows her family would never approve of this.

She would probably be stripped of her title as the heiress and their kingdom would be in danger. It's because a kingdom without a ruler and heir or heiress would suffer in draught, hunger and many disasters like earthquakes and would be very vulnerable.

In short, it would be the end of a kingdom. Eunbi, being the eldest among the heiresses, she wants to set a good example for the other heiresses. Even if it means sacrificing everything she wants ans happiness.

Along the way, the Earth Attuned stopped them. She shushed them and shouted, "Get ready!"

They drew their weapons but minutes after minutes passed by and none came. They thought it was just some false alarm but Eunbi knew Chaewon had something to do with it. It's just that everything about Chaewon intruiges Eunbi.

She has this gut feeling that Chaewon wasn't someone ordinary. And she intends to find out who she is. Eunbi's not gonna lie and say Chaewon isn't suspicious just because she's starting to develop feelings. No. In fact, that's the whole reason why she liked her. They myster Chaewon brings is just... something.

They went on to walk again and a few more hours of walking, they finally made it. The River of Life and Death. One wrong step and you are dead. Only one person were known to have made it across here. The one who hid the gems.

It was more than 500 years ago and the woman was already dead. So, no one ever dared to step foot here. The HM was a little weary to send the Heiresses knowing that they could die. But if it were just ordinary students or maybe top class students, they would probably have died along the way before ever reaching The River of Life and Death.

While arriving, the maknae was fully aware of what is at stake here. Any moment, if they step on the wrong bridge, one of the could lose their life. Eunbi remembered what Chaewon said.

"Red Bridge..."

"L-let's take the red bridge."

Eunbi spoke up after much debate in her head. She needed to trust Chaewon on this. Besides, it's not like they have any choice.

"I'll go first."

Eunbi, stepped closer to the bridge. She was now only one step away from it. Slowly, she stepped on the wooden floor while it made a creaking sound.

You don't know how much Eunbi was relieved when she finally crossed the bridge along with the other 11. Yujin, being protective of Wonyoung, she was last to cross the bridge. As Eunbi was about to grab Yujin's hand, a peircing sound throught the wind was heard as a piece of arrow went through Yujin's chest.

The others screamed as they watched their 2nd maknae clutch her chest where the arrow pierced through while coughing up blood. She kneeled and at the end of the bridge they saw another figure. A woman figure, also had 3 arrows through her stomach. It seemed like she was trying to protect them but 4 arrows probably went pass and hit her and Yujin.

The cloaked figure was seen to remove all three arrows in her painfully. She turned around to face the enemies, since she was facing Yujin. She let out an aura that screamed power. It was more than the 3 gems combined can produce.

The figure then created spiked through the grounds and water floated beside them. The trees caught on fire. Blue fire. The rarest of fires. She pushed her bloody hands forward making the attacks. The power that they caught on was unbelievable. The smoke were everywhere.

Eunbi, being the closest to Yujin, pulled her to a safe place while the smoke cleared.

They coughed and used their hands as fans to stop dust from enetering their eyes. As the smoke cleared, the figure was standing there. Her cloak all torned and burnt. The wind blew her cloak and even from afar, you can see her heavy breathing.

Eunbi was too focused on Yujin to even process everything. The figure then was seen wearing a mask. She clutched her stomach where the arrows pierced through. You can see the emptiness in her eyes as she walked towards the girls.

Yujin was now on the brink of death and the girls didn't know what to do. They wanted to help Yujin but no one could. Healing powers were very rare. If you had healing powers, it's usually just for you to heal yourself. Healing others with powers were extremely rare.

Eunbi tried to say soothing words to Yujin. Telling her to to close her eyes as they try to find a way to heal her. But even before anyone could do anything, the figure lowed herself onto Yujin's level. Minju was about to tell her off until they saw a mint colored light coming from between Yujin's wound and the figure's palms.

As she lifted her hands, the wound was already gone. Stunned. That's what happened the these girls. Eunbi of course had an idea to whom might she be but didn't say anything. The figure held her hands over Yujin's forehead and whispered words. Spells. It was to make Yujin fall alseep for a few hours until the pain dies down.

Even if the wound wasn't there. The pain was still there. Before she left, she gave Eunbi a quick glance and used mind telephaty to tell her something.

"Thanks for trusting me unnie."
