New Disaster

Everything was seemingly going well. Sierra was progressing with time, Estelle fixed her easiest problems first, the researches were advancing steadily, and everything was stable.

In this short time, Sierra had begun to relax around the entourage once more. Although the side she showed previously was faked in order to fulfill her plans, it didn't meant that the real Sierra was completely rotten.

Sierra was the product of such behavior. Upon realizing that perhaps she did not need to resort to unholy methods and could just be patient and grow out her power in normal ways, she settled down.

It took her days to cope with the fact that her results were probably not going to show up in one year or two. After all, she wanted to get stronger as fast as possible, and the offer she had received from Duke Alfonso provided her with exactly that as her pay.
