Seraph

Cassandra survives -- not really. She was in a situation that no one can explain, the grand duke looked around the monster's corpse.

"How did this monster die?" one of the knights said.

[Notice: Knight of the North]

Name: Ronald Dane

Level: 40

Cassandra saw the name and the level of the knight that was coming closer to the monster.

the grand duke also came closer to the monster. "This is a white wolf?" he said. "how did it get here?" he asked his knight but they just shrugged.

"Check around the premises. Maybe someone who killed it was still around?" as he commands the knights.

Some knights investigated the monster's corpse. Cassandra is hoping that no one notice that all of this was her doing. She is currently held by Shahara, the girl she met at the party.

As the crowd gathered in that place to check out what was happening, the grand duke faced them and asked.

"Did anyone see what happened here?"

The people at the party started to look at each other, but no one seemed to know. The grand duke was about to say something, but the knight interrupted him.

"I apologize, my lord," he said to the duke "but we found traces of magic from the beast" as he showed a magic orb that can detect magic to the duke" and we found this" he showed the ice spear that Cassandra used to kill the monster.

"We check this item and we proved that this is made by magic," Ronald explained.

Cassandra hoped that the duke wouldn't notice her. " Please don't look at me, please don't look at me' Cassandra prayed silently.

The grand duke took one look at the monster one more time and came walking towards Shahara that is currently carrying Cassandra in her arms "my lord, she looks cute right" she said as she shoved Cassandra's face to the Grand Duke "get it away from me!" the grand duke said as he tried to push back my face away.

"Aw, you meanie, you don't treat a baby like that," Shahara said while taking Cassandra back into her arms.

"We don't know where that kid came from," the duke said. "It might be a monster pretending to be human" as he looked down at her.

Cassandra felt scared at the gaze of the grand duke. She didn't even notice the notice board that was shown at the side.

"Don't be like that!" Shahara said while hugging her tight. "I think that her guardian was killed while protecting her," Shahara defended. The grand duke looked and glared at Cassandra and backed away.

The grand duke returned to the monster. "Collect this and do more investigation!" he commanded, then turned around back to his castle.

The demi-human that is also watching went back inside to continue the banquet. Shahara looked at Cassandra in her arms.

"So can we keep the baby?" Shahara asked, but no one answered, "well nobody said no." she said cheerfully. And brought her inside the castle. She touches Cassandra's head and face.

"Who left you here to die?" she said with a sad look on her face. Cassandra was trying so hard to maintain her innocent face. 'no one left me here' she thought, 'why the heck is this happening' she thought.

As Shahara carried Cassandra into a room in the castle.

"This is my room you can stay here for now," Shahara said, her bedroom was simple but elegant inside there's a fireplace in the side with tables and a sofa, she has a mini office table and chair in her room, a bed that 2 people can sleep, Shahara put Cassandra on the bed she looked at her.

"Are you hungry?" she asked as she caresses her face. Cassandra looked at her saying yes because she's starving. Cassandra has eaten nothing since lunch. Shahara smiled at her.

"I'll give you something to eat." Shahara exited the room.

As Cassandra saw her leaving and making sure that she was not around 'alone at last' she taught in relief 'open reward window'

It shocked Cassandra that she got an upgrade on her system. "seraph?" she thought.

[seraph: yes ] someone in her head answered, Cassandra, started and looked around "am i hearing things?"

[Seraph: No you're not]

"Who are you? " Cassandra asked

[Seraph: I'm your new system upgrade]

"This is really terrifying!"

[Seraph: why?]

"cuz you're in my head and you sound like a robot'

[seraph: no am not]

"Yes, you are"

As they argued, the door suddenly opened, an old-looking maid entered the room. "I thought I heard something," she said, then she approaches Cassandra that was sitting on the bed.
