Ivy turned the page but didn't find anything in the next pages. All are blank.
'It seems she stopped here. Anyhow, today I learned a lot. Let's call it a day' Ivy thought to herself and put the book aside before entering dreamland.
Under the moonlight on the cliff of a mountain a person is sitting and looking into the sky. His jet black hair is dancing in the air and his pitch black eyes are concentrated at something in the sky.
"Master"
The silence is disturbed by someone and the person looked at the voice direction, he found his loyal guard kneeling behind him with his head down.
After sensing his master response the guard started speaking "Master, I found out the details about the person you asked"
The person didn't reply and didn't seem like paying attention to the guard's words but the guard continued speaking.
"Her name is Aivyn Dalton. She is the daughter of Mr & Mrs Simon Dalton. She is weak from birth and didn't come out without her parents. Last time when you saved her, she came out with her brother Ronald Dalton. There is nothing special about her master. She is just like a simple and innocent girl" the guard reported.
"A Caged Bird and a Daughter of Daltons" a low, husky and powerful voice was heard from the man.
"You can leave Lyo. Keep an eye on her and update me from time to time" the person ordered.
The person with the name Lyo nodded his head and left the place like a wind without any sound.
'Hmm. Interesting. So the little girl is my target. What is her name again?'
'Huh.. Aivyn .'
Aivyn woke up from her deep slumber and stretched her hands in a lazy manner. She yawned and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings and got surprised.
Later she recognized that she is in a different place, different world and different era. It is a bit difficult to adjust to new environments but with her experience in travelling she accepted the change a bit early.
Today she felt a bit energized and felt new hope. She got excited to know about this whole place and was looking for it.
'I really don't believe that I transmigrated into another world. I thought all the transmigrated novels are interesting to read but experiencing it is bit"
Aivyn thought for a suitable word and thought that 'It is bit thrilling for now'
Aivyn smiled at her thinking but she is looking forward to facing reality and accepting the challenges.
'But I don't have full memories of the real Aivyn . What should I do now?' Ivy fell into deep thought.
Aivyn memories are transferred to her but all those are not clear and they are like blurry scenes. She wants to find out more on her own without depending on her memory. Suddenly she got an idea and smiled.
"Huh. What's there to think about? I have a great weapon. So many novels suggested this method to rescue from any situation'
'Now come to think of it, I really miss my novels and chatting with different people. Anyhow thanks to all those novels'
Aivyn happily stood up from her bed and started humming a song. She did some warm up exercises because Ivy's real body is too weak to handle all the workouts she used to do before.
But she felt content doing some simple exercises. But her long dress is a bit uncomfortable to do all the exercises.
'I need to search for pants and shirts for my exercise.' Ivy thought to herself and proceeded to do some breathing exercises.
After sometime her body is drenched with sweat. Ivy went inside the bathroom to freshen up.
Ivy gasped by seeing the luxurious and lavish bathroom. The room is spacious and a large white tub is placed in between which is covered with transparent curtains.
The water is warm and rose petals are placed on the water. The fragrance is very refreshing. Ivy happily went inside the tub and soaked.
It is very relaxing and refreshing. She enjoyed her bath. She took her sweet time by using different liquids, powders available in the bathroom.
After some time ivy came out from the washroom. She didn't have any bathrobe inside so she used a long towel to cover her small body.
She walked into the closet to select the dress to wear. She was awed by the seamless grand dresses.
"WOW" Ivy squealed.
There are so many gowns, hats, gloves, socks, and many other things present. She skimmed through the wardrobe to pick a suitable dress for her.
After a long time she finally managed to get one simple sky blue dress. After wearing the dress she went near the mirror to do her hair.
She sat on the chair and looked at the reflection. She traced the face with her fingers on the mirror.
'You are beautiful' Ivy thought to herself.
She came out of her trance and combed her hair neatly. She wants to put some makeup on but after seeing the clear skin she decided to not apply any makeup on this face.
She applied a liquid on her lips which is similar to lip balm by using rose petals and felt satisfied by her look.
Maia used to style herself in different costumes and tried different makeups. She always wants to make her look presentable.
She used to participate in small walk shows. So she is always taking care of her personal hygiene and looks.
She believes that one should need to make them clean and neat. Even if we don't have expensive clothes or jewels we need to look presentable with whatever we have.
Satisfied with her outcome. She looks at herself for one last time in the mirror and twirls around in excitement.
'Maia. huh no no. Aivyn.. Stay strong.'
