When everyone stared at her, Lily felt embarrassed. It was not the time when women were that bold. Even if they were witches with such strong power, they did not have much confidence in front of men.
Thea did not feel bad for the girl at all as she asked with an innocent face.
"They all are like my brothers, lady lily after all they work for my father." she said as she bowed in front of her father. "My lord, I have come to check on you when I heard that a demon is running rampant and trying to hurt the knights of our family."
Her father who was about to scold her for being rude was silent for a second before smiling. None of his daughters had come to ask for him so far. Only Thea was worried for him.
"You did not need to worry about me. I am a strong knight. I can kill many of these demons with only my one finger." he boosted with pride but there was a hint of pampering in his voice when she smiled.
"But how will you recognize this demon?" she asked again with a serious face when his smile widened, "ah! That was easy! Demons could not have their own body. They mostly take control of the body of someone else by conjuring.
This time it was a girl with the strong power of earth. All we need to do is to check which girls between the age of 16-300 years have the power of earth.
And then we can check them one by one." She had the power of fire according to the genes of her family.
"Aah, thank goodness that we all have the power of fire." her father patted her shoulders before asking her to leave since they still have the work to do.
Thea nodded and left with a bright smile on her face while Lily just kept standing there being ignored by everyone.
Even when Thea was leaving, everyone was only looking at her as if she was illuminating, making her furious to the core.
She returned, thumping her feet on the ground with force.
"What is within her? She is looking completely changed as if demons had taken over her body!" she spat when Jane shook her head.
"I have thought so too. But in that case, her walking posture has changed and so has the color of her eyes but she is looking completely perfect.
I just think her limit of getting bullied is passed and now she wants revenge.'' She shook her head but Lily was not ready to accept defeat.
She picked up a glass and swirled in the air when the color of the liquid changed inside it.
"Then it is necessary that we teach her a lesson." with that she pointed at the maid and passed the glass to her and whispered something in her ears.
Thea was checking the list her father had prepared for and then finally smiled and looked away.
Now that she had failed to bring the reality of Jenny out with the video. She needed something to do in this gathering to show the real face of her or she had to marry that scum.
Where was that scum anyway? She had thought that he would be here too.
"Are you looking for me?" the words formed in the air when she looked out of the balcony to see the marquees and her eyes widened.
Her first reaction was to look around to make sure no one had seen it and only then she took a breath of relief.
"What are you doing here?" she whispered through gritted teeth when the air around her started to twist and she felt that she was not able to breath.
Her breathing hitches and the air came through trouble for a second before the words formed in the air.
"I thought that you would be happy to see your benefactor!" this man! She cursed in her heart but tried to bring a smile on her face as she nodded.
"I am happy to see you here." The words came out with some trouble but once she said that, she was able to breathe again as if everything was an illusion.
"I am just afraid that someone would see us together because everyone is looking for that demon." she said in a worried voice as she rubbed her neck while her eyes kept looking around.
"Who cares!" The two words in the air almost choked her to death when he added, "they are looking for a girl with the power of earth. Neither i am a girl nor i have the power of earth." she nodded.
At least it was confirmed that he was a man and held the power of air. But then..
"Why did everyone think that you have the power of earth?" she asked with curiosity
"How would I know!"
"....." she stared at the simple words that show how much arrogance did he hold and sighed but added after some pondering,
"could the one with the power of air create such creaks on the ground?"
"Of course not!" The words brought three deep lines on her forehead as she felt speechless.
"That means you did not create those creaks?" her voice turning grave when the words fluttered agan.
Not only the man has the ability to write in the air. But he even changes the color from silver to gold or vice versa every time.
"Of course, I did it. Who else would come for your help?"
"....." this man! He was not here to help but to aggravate her to death.
"Then how did you do it with the power of air?" she asked after taking some deep breaths to make sure that she did not have a heart attack when no reply came. Only the sound of laughter filled with mirth.
"Hey, are you here or have you left already?" she asked after a while when no reply came.
"Who left, my lady?"
