123: Fate is a b*tch [pt1]

'Ah, it's going to hurt. I should brace myself for that.'

There was no way the knife was going to miss Elysia at this small range. Her face was bound to be scarred if she tried to dodge but if she did not then she would die for sure.

It was a difficult decision to make but Aurora decided to save her life in exchange for her life's safety. Her face was much less important than her life.

'Besides, maybe my scar will keep Adam and Eve from getting interested in me any further. I should not care that much about it.'

The knife made an impact with something and made a tearing sound but Elysia had somehow lost her balance before it hit her.

Elysia looked behind her, only to find the kid smiling harmlessly at her while also holding his hand in a weird pose.

The person who had attacked Elysia also seemed to have collapsed in front of her. The knife that should have hit Elysia was somehow lodged inside the attacker's hand.
