Nigel furrowed his brows worriedly and shot arrows of questions towards her, "Adeline, are you alright? What was that just now? You looked like you were in great pain."
Adeline gently rubbed her forehead and shrugged it off, "Just a little headache."
But deep down, she felt as though it was not just a normal headache. The pain felt different. It was as though she was not hurt physically but somewhere… somewhere else... somewhere deep down. But she couldn't exactly pinpoint where.
And she was right. The human soul that rested inside of her used to be azure blue in color. But after the unification ceremony in the wedding, her soul had a hint of red – the color of Theodore's soul.
And when she expressed her earnest desire to grow stronger and faster, that hint of red in her soul spread even more, almost devouring half of her human soul.
