Chapter 196: Bloody Arrival
Chapter 196: Bloody Arrival
Hearing the sounds of rain falling over the carriage, I sent a glance towards the lifeless eyes of Silvia, sighing, thinking about my past. Looking down at my palms, I sighed, “So will I ever regain my memories of what happened.”
“Never,” Lilith coldly stated, “Your outer soul was destroyed; you will never regain those memories again. Unless that person was able to gather parts of your outer soul essence, but even then, you will only retain fragmented memories. Pictures of the past, or half words nothing more, nothing less.”
It was weird, I could not really remember why I became angry as most of my memories were blurred during my breakthrough, but I remembered my rage. The loathing I held towards the heavens. Remembering the smile that flashed when I went through my earth tribulations, I frowned, feeling a name upon the tip of my tongue.
Poking my cheeks, a massive thumping sound shook the carriage as Lilith smiled, “Why bother thinking about it? This is only my theory based upon those being that held influence over me during my change. Let’s head to the Isles of Yu’drol once we are done here. I am sure some answers will appear. “
Hearing more pounding against the carriage, I simply smiled, pulling Lilith in as she screamed, laughing in joy.
Slowly the noise from outside went still as I saw Zanris appear once more with teary eyes, completely drenched in gore whimpering. Turning to Lilith, who rolled her eyes, I smiled as she spoke, “Stop treating her like a child. She is a grown-ass woman.”
“Not true. She is technically two days old, and She was recreated in my image.” I said, rephrasing a certain quote. “Come to master,”
Like a long-lost child, Zanris cried, leaping in the middle of Lilith and me, “Master was mean to Zan. Zan no do anything.”
“The fuck did you to her? Is she retarded?” Lilith spat, glaring at me.
“What, this is just her personality. It’s not my fault she acts like a child. Didn’t you do the same as well? I remember you speaking in the third person a few times.” I said as Lilith blushed, recalling the past.
“I only did that a few times.” She defended it as I laughed.
“How far are we Zan,” I asked as she looked north,
“Ten minutes away.”
“I see. Now be a good girl and lead the way,” I said, patting her bloody head as she beamed in joy, rushing towards the front of the carriage.
Glancing out at the window, I whistled at various limbs and organs that hung over the streets. I could see the look of horror visible able within the eyes of Zanris victims.
“You woman are so evil,” I spat as Lilith snorted,
“that’s rich coming from you. Didn’t you destroy all of Asterion, Godwin, and Romga?”
“you destroyed two continents filled with people. All I did was destroy cities.” I countered with a smile as she froze.

Frowning, my eyes began to glimmer as Orion’s eyes became mine. Staring at the scene, he was currently staring at, a cold chill filled my soul as I looked at the single rope hanging from the chandler in her mansion before gazing at the crimson pool below it.”
“What the hell happen?”
Returning my vision back, I instructed Orion to return as I sent Lilith a glance. She had just arrived so it can’t be her, can it?
“Something wrong?” she asked with a heartwarming smile kissing my lips.
SMirking, I shook my head, “No, Lisa is just missing. I sent Orion to kill her, but she seems to be dead. A large pool of blood was found.”
“I haven’t killed her if that’s what you’re wondering.” Lilith innocently said with a vibrant smile, “But I most definitely will when I see her.”
I somehow did not one bit believe her. Studying her mischievous smirk, I felt she was panning something. She is, after all, crazy. I need to find a woman as normal as me. I seem to be attracting all the crazies.
Ignoring her secretive behaviors, I rolled my eyes as we fooled around before the carriage came to a halt. Knocking on the door of the carriage, I saw Silvia with a vibrant gleam and Zanris smile with each other.
“Master, we are here!!!” SHe exclaimed, “it’s so pretty.”
Stepping out, Lilith’s eyes went wide as we stared up at the stary skies lit up with colorful fireworks. Various vibrant explosions could be seen in the air showering the skies in light.
“Lord Snow, the Jarl has been expecting you.” A soft, seductive voice as I turned to a woman approaching. Noticing how no one was here, the young woman stepped past my wife, watching me like food. Sending Lilith, who was clearly being ignored, I frowned, ignoring the woman as we stepped past her.
There was not even a greeting my way nor a welcoming party. Either they did not think I would not make it, or whoever organized this party was ill-informed.
Wrapping her arm around my arms, Lilith smiled as we approached a rather large building. with Zanris and Silvia walking behind us, I turned to the Duo, “Explore, should I need you, I will call upon you or have Yura do it.”
Silvia seemed confused, but Zanris quickly gripped her, “Lil sis, let’s go!” she yells, dragging Silvia’s way clearly against her will.
“She really behaves like a child.” I commented, “watching her father kill her mother must have really fucked with her.”
Walking into the building not protected, my eyes were filled with lights as I saw a sea of gold and silver. Like I was within a fantasy game, I felt a little blown away. There was a rather modern air to this place as I stared at the hundreds of people all covered in masks. Talking amongst each other as members of high society.
“A mascarade?” Lilith cutely said as a silver fox mask quickly grew from her face. I, however, did not have to worry as my mask was already on.
“Aye, but it feels out of place here.” I whispered as Lilith chuckled, “The Jarl must be from the Capital. All of their architects are designed as such. However, it’s more so of a pale, ashen color and Azure color.”
“Lord Snow, please wait.” the woman from before exclaimed as Lilith began to frown in annoyance.
“What do you want?” I spat as he shook, shivering as killing intent began to rise.
“Please, the Ja…”
“Fuck off before I kill you,” Lilith uttered as her fingers suddenly appeared on the young woman’s neck, drawing a sliver of blood.
Turning the color of ash, I smirked in disdain, walking off with Lilith in my arms as a few people turned to us. A look of disbelief could be seen as they murmured to each other. It was not hard to figure out many of these people thought we would die making it here.
It was, however, not long before a rather particular frame entered my vision. “THat Aura… Trygve, is that you?” I asked as his brawny laughter echoed through the party as I stared at him through his dragon mask.
“Lord Snow, and this must be your lovely wife. Allow me to introduce myself; My name is Trygve Englehart.”
Blushing a bit, Lilith smiled as she spoke with honey in her tone, “I am Yura Snow. It’s quite the pleasure.”
