ALFALLA'S POV.
Days and nights passed, there's no extraordinary things happened to me here. I still don't know what is my power, I still don't know If I have those but I still have this hope that I do have one. Those nights, I always meet Hell on the rooftop and saying the same thing. That I should face the moon so that he can see Alanna to me, I don't know but I feel so bad thinking that he think of me as the dead Alanna when I face the moon. I am now starting to hate the moon!
By the way, our restaurant gain more popularity and I think it is because of Ma'am Deborah's words. Lot of people are keep coming here and eating with comfy on their seats. Sometimes there are people visiting us and throwing us insults, that the restaurant will gain no more customers, receive no orders and missions but no one cares. Because customers today is like a hive, there are so many! They are wrong. Very wrong!
"Alfalla, the food is already cooked. Please get this one and serve it to the table number three." I nodded immediately to Midori. I took the tray with the food on it from the counter and serve to the table. It is a group of men, ordering a big bowl of—I think it's adobo if it's in human world. I served it carefully and smiled to them, I run towards the counter and get five bowls for the five guys for that table and serve it to them again.
"You must be the newbie of Incantation, how's work?" The guy in his black suit, actually they are all wearing black three-piece suit with the same neckties, watches, and even their haircut are all the same. I wonder what they do for a living.
"Yes, I was hired just two weeks ago. By the way, it's very kind of you if you recommend our restaurant to others because I know that our food here is goo—no! it's excellent!" I smiled to them, they just laughed and nodded.
"After all the tragic happened to them, they are lucky because of you." Other guy said, I just smiled and bow to them. I leave the table because I don't want to talk about those tragic situations furthermore. I don't want to make this day bad, I want more positivity in this building.
"Alfalla." Someone called me and it's Hell, I came to him and asked him why he is calling me in the middle of the work.
"I have a mission, and I want you to come with me. It's after tomorrow." He coldly said. But why me? I don't have powers, what if someone attack us and kill me first? How can I even fight? I didn't even know if I have power to show off!
"But I didn't know my power yet, and what missio—"
"Deborah sent me a message, she want us to be in their Kingdom." Deborah? The general of the knights in Kingdom of Monarchy? Who ate here and gave us life and color again because of her powerful words?
"It's not a mission then." I cockily said back to him but he just hissed at me.
"It's an order from her, technically it's a mission. Don't ask more, you're too loud." I want to ask him again why would he choose me when there's Oceana or Violet that willing to be with him but he just suddenly walk away from me! That asshole!

I don't know but the boredom strike me, my foot lead me to the forest where all the trees are incredibly dancing because of the refreshing wind. The sun is like smiling at me and it doesn't feel hot when the rays of the sun hit my skin, it's amazing! The different strange but gorgeous flowers are now swaying their little thin leaves goes along with the music from the birds' tweets.
I spotted a dead body of a tree lying on the ground so I chose to sit on it and feel the ambiance of the surroundings. I didn't experience this from the human world, what I can see in there is the anger face from my mom, the disgust from my dad and the pollution that our town gives. The best view I've just experienced their are the smile from my sisters and friends. That's all.
"This is not a good idea for you to be alone, Miss newbie from Incantation." I immediately stood up when someone's voice gave me chills in my body. And his creepy smirk surprise me, w-wait I can sense his aura. I don't know but one thing for sure, he is dangerous.
"W-What do you want from me?" I stuttered. I am nervous as hell! I don't have powers for me to use!
"I thought you're Alanna! You really look like her when you give us side views of that face!" His smirk won't fade away, it's like a tattoo that cannot be removed.
Alanna, do I really look like her?
I suddenly feel scared when his hands are now producing smoke, but it's different. I feel the cold chills from those hands even though he is meters away from me. And it scares me more when I witnessed how those smoke turns into a familiar knife.
I look at his face, he is tall but I am taller. He has a small scar on his right face like it was scratched by a cat. His features is devilish, his eyes are glowing black and his body physique is broader than anyone else I've met. His muscles from his arm and legs are no joke. I seriously look at him with so much hate, step aside my fear and face him bravely.
"That ice knife, you did that to our Captain." I whisper but he still heard it. He just laughed and laughed.
After seconds, I was so shocked because everything happen so fast!
Hell is now in my front with his flaming sword in his right hand and defending me from the ice guy.
"Just hide, and hold me. You will be safe."
