Chapter 14- A fearful thrill.
12 years ago.
Upon the rise of the sun, the forest was so snow-white. It has a pristine aura that begs of the soul to stop for a moment and let the sight enter your soul. In the forest, there was a sense of kinship with the flora, of an ancient soul that stretches into everything that lived. It is here under the nascent rays of a sun born to rise each day that. The forest floor woven with ancient tree roots came a light filtered by the bouquet of foliage above: softened, verdant and freshly aromatic.
'I was 4 when it happened. I was used to this, I knew that it would happen some time or other, I thought that I could at least give the last smile before my death, but now.'
There she was, Rhine al ve ron Diablos, surrounded by a group of twenty fire breathing hond Wolves, her body was damaged, blood came flowing from her open wounds, her short grey hairs were now dyed in red, her eyes were twinkling about to close, her fine clothes were ragged and torn apart. Her body was at its limit it laid down about to be devoured by the monsters, her mana was exhausted with every breath her heart raised higher and higher, tears started to flow from her face slipping pass her body, she tried, again and again, to absorb mana from the atmosphere but everything was just in vain, it was impossible for that soul. 'I am not dying here' She gathered all that she could, and she forced herself in, "I am taking all of you with me, I am Rhine al ve ron Diablos, the daughter of 7th demon lord." Just by opening her mouth she wasted almost her entire body despite it she charged all that she had left, all that she could absorb, she threw an empty magic stone of the lowest durability at the hound wolves, charging with all of her mana, charging a magic stone with an excess of mana is just a foolish mistake that is responsible for million deaths of logic mages who tried using his method for making magic tools.

Rhine started tearing up thinking about her possible end. Her body movements became tighter and her appetite reduced. Her smiles were shorter and her silence longer. She found things to do that don't need doing and ignored the important thoughts in her mind. Logging off from the link would may her even more obvious. In the end, Rhine was patiently waiting for her ultimate fate.
Ascais turned towards her, Rhine kept thinking of her end, It was at this moment that Ascais did what was necessary, "Alberine", Rhine was sure of her end by the sword of destruction and war when Ascais transformed it into a spear line projection instead of going for her, Ascais threw Albrine on out of the window in a particular direction, It flew faster than Rhine could react, It went through the window pricing the wind and ultimately penetrating the heart of the targeted person.
"What a start to a day."
'That's what awaits my lord.'
'I have to say my byes now Hiki, make sure that you keep providing information to me'
'As you command my lord.' The feeling of richness disappeared from Ascais' head, as the link from the other side, was cut by Hiki.
Ascais Left the room, leaving the astonished Rhine alone, 'That's was close, if I hadn't silenced that target then I would fail Ra and everyone, Someone interrupting my Hiki's link, it takes courage. Lastly, there would be more types of the magic system in this world than one.'
Ascais wasn't quite relieved by the thought of someone being there, leaking the intentions of Ra to the humans of this world it would make them fear the overlord more than anything they had, about what they had known, most of the memory of people of Ra were erased by a world-wide magic spell, but if someone was able to spread the word of Ra then it might jog some memory of some people which would do anything to repel the invasion of Ra.
Rhine was speechless, She was recovering from the previous events, for now, she was just praying that her forged relationship could be the same, with no obstruction to if. She looked through the window, glancing at the rising sun, 'I cannot comfort Ascais about this.'

Ascais went downstairs to the kitchen area, he opened the draws, removed 4 eggs from the fridge, turned on the stove and pour oil on the pan and fried the eggs, he removed strips of bacon and started frying them on another stove, lastly he removed a whole box of meat, holding a knife in his hands, he took a few seconds to stabilize his vision, with a strike on his mark he chopped the whole set of meat in one flash, "Finishing strike, 50 per cent throhell"
Finishing Strike is an original spell made by Ascais' father. It accelerates the body of the caster 250 times for 30 seconds, combined with the magic spell 'throhell' Ascais has the ability to increase his body to 500 times which has a duration of 5 minutes.
"Now that's what I say a clean swipe. The old man was really useful for this." Dropping the chopped meat into a pot of hot water and mixing it with spices, he tried to make the perfect mix of meat and spice, after a brief boiling he had it ready, After setting in the table, he took it all in and went to his room, climbing up the stairs he kept thinking how he was going to boast his cooking skills to Rhine.
Entering his room, the sunlight flashed through his eyes. Ascais couldn't think of another word to describe those features. Rhine's beauty was like a painting of a goddess, evoking a solemness that left no room for wicked lust. She simply captured the eye. Rhine was half naked just wearing half of her undergarment just her bra trying to slip her panties to her legs, looking down Ascais saw Rhine's cave of mystery, It rosed up Ascais, his nose started to bleed raising his hands further he kept it up, in the end, lifting his thumb finger up symbolizing that his bleed was worth it. A scream tore the morning silence and rose up to pierce the sky. Rhine face blushed with roses, that peek of champagne pink. The colour-infused cheeks dimpled with the blossoming smile and her eyes shone in a way that only deep happiness can bring.
