Chapter 16.

I'm back home,finally,Alisa said. Alisa took a bubble bath,wore her usual lounging clothes and went to the kitchen. Hmm...Now time to whip up some of my favorite dessert,Coffee Tiramisu with assorted berries on top,Alisa said.

In twenty minutes,she was already done and put it in the freezer to have that coolness in the dessert. After ten minutes,Hmm.....it's done, finally,she said. She cut a slice,sprinkled the assorted berries on top and took a blood bag before she went to the study room to study her last target,Rie.

Now,to do some research on my last target so that I can find out what's happening to me. When I power up,my senses,my body,my mind, it's not mine anymore.

She made a portrait of Rie and it floated infront of her and the map to her castle too.

Now,Rie Ainsworth,age three hundred and sixty four,features,green hair and pink eyes, hmm.... she's both a mage and a master with poisons. She's the headmistress to the top leading sect in all of the realms,interesting. There will be finally someone who'll be worth my time,Alisa said while taking a bite of the tiramisu and a slurp of blood to gulp it down. Mm....Wow! I wonder which blood type Becka gave me because it's really good and it tastes like wine somehow. And although I hate to admit it,this Rie is pretty cute,she's a perfect match to that bastard I killed,Jako,or whatever the fuck his name is. I bet they were screwing each other in secret.

I'll attack at night,it's nine thirty and the sun rays might give me a sun burn. Yeesh, I better go to sleep.

In her dream...

Huh! Again?! Seriously?! These dreams are really weird and this place looks really rundown. It's full of creatures I've never seen before and what,who is that girl over there? And I think I can see her face! Alisa thought.

She saw a girl with silky raven black hair, emerald coloured eyes,fair skin and a big pair of dark wings and she looked as if she was struggling with something. Wait a sec,that hair piece,isn't that the same one I saw on my last dream,the one that that angel gave her little sister? What is it doing with her? Alisa thought.

Don't.....let.....the darkness consume

you...she gritted her teeth until blood was coming out of her mouth. Don't.....let it....control....you,she mumbled.

Let me devour your soul,those monsters said. When they were about to attack, Ahhh.......The girl shouted in pain then a massive dark power overflowed her and then Alisa noticed something. What the hell! That crest on her forehead,it's...it looks familiar.

Then the atmosphere around her was full of bloodlust. She drew her sword and said coldly, Enchant Hell Blaze! and they were obliterated in a split second. Then she went rampant,she was struggling against the power until her hands started to bleed. She shouted in agony until a boy came to her rescue. He had messy blonde hair, emerald eyes and a bigger set of wings. I can see him too! Alisa thought. He went next to her and hugged her from behind then she calmed down and lost all her energy to even stand.

He said,Little sister,what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly go rampant for no reason at all! Was it you? He looked at Alisa with blood lust in his eyes. When a slash of his sword almost reached Alisa,she woke up with a jolt with a sweaty hoodie and hair.

Urgh.....why? Why,me,damn it?! I have to finish this fast. After my mission,investigating those people in my dream will be my top priority.

She did her usual;took a quick shower,wore her samurai garment,took her sword and her favorite snack then took off.

When she reached the Ainsworth Castle,she studied it then said,Sheesh,this one is heavily guarded. I have to kill more guards than usual, then that crest appeared on her forehead then she finished,And there's nothing that'll make me happier. She barged forward then massacred all the guards in a matter of seconds,even their best were killed. When the poison masters of the sect saw this, they tried to hit her with their most toxic poisons then she said with a smirk on her face,Full Counter,then they melted like butter on fire.

When she went up the skylight like usual,she noticed that there was a poisonous barrier there and she shattered it as if it was nothing. Now,to wait for the right time to strike. For now,I wait while eating my liquorice and eavesdrop on them a little,Alisa said while squatting to see what was going on under her.

Now,time for me to tell you why I summoned you all here,my students,Rie said. Our comrades were killed,Marina,Jacob and Chichi,did die a tragic death but I have a hunch that the killer will come for us next. We have to be care.....

Before she could finish,Alisa jumped down while eating and said,Wow! Your IQ is close to high. I'm almost impressed. It was me. Do you remember me? R.i.e Ains.wo.r.t.h?

*gasp* What are you doing here? We killed you! Our comrades killed you! And I poisoned you with the most toxic poison I have! How can you still be alive! Rie shouted in frustration.

Well,I'm here and...that's all that matters,right sweetie? I'm here to take your lives and my sweet Murasame is not leaving without them,Alisa said while touching the tip of her sword.

Quickly,everyone,use your most toxic poison to finish her off,now,one of those students shouted. Yeah,protect Master Rie,they said. They started prepping their powers,Poisonous Bloom,Tuberose Torture,then the others started prepping their powers and when they were finished they aimed and fired.

When it reached her,she was badly wounded. They started cheering and shouted,we protected Master Rie.

Alisa said weakly,You'll pay for this! What are you talking about little bitch,we've already won,two girls huffed while going to try to stab her with their swords.

When they were about to reach her,Alisa stood up,held both swords and broke them with her bare hands. They gasped and all of them started trembling. Calling me a bitch? You really have balls don't you! I congratulate all of you for having a pair. And you even disfigured me....Just kidding. Then black marks covered her whole body and returned her back to normal.

Then they desperately combined their poisons and fired it at her and then she said calmly,Full Counter,then they were obliterated in half a second.

I don't wanna waste time her so.....she went close to her,Rie was so scared that she didn't even have the energy to stand.

She went close to her,slit her throat then blood started to spew all over. Come here my little doggies, dinnertime! Alisa smiled happily. Huge spirit dogs and started eating her. After a few minutes,they were done band they licked the blood that was on the floor. How dare you dirtify my face with your filthy blood! You're disgusting,Alisa said coldly and spat on her face before they ate her head.

Tatsumi,clean up and do the usual and also I saw that this snow scorpion,this golden snake and this black ringed snake are extremely rare,hard to tame and it looks like they're all attached to me so...take all the plants, poisonous herbs and everything they need from here that will be useful to them and send them to the house,understand?

Okay,as wish my lady and please forgive me for my insolence last time,Tatsumi said. You're sorry,fine you're forgiven...now get to work,Alisa said. As you wish,miss,he said with a smile of relief on her face.

So,now that I've finished avenging them,I can now start investigating the people in my dream,my powers and how they're connected to me.

And wow! I can't believe that a year has passed so fast,I wasn't keeping track of the dates.

So,the snow scorpion will be called Xia because she's female,the golden snake will be called Xuan and the black ringed snake will be called Ming.

I shouldn't get myself attached to you three,if I do,you'll end up dead,Alisa said while flying.

And I think this curse is connected to those people in my dream,I must find out,she thought.And also when I powered up,I wasn't the one in control,I have to find out that as well.

What is the true identity of Alisa? And why is this happening to her?

Stay tuned in the next episodes to find out!
