It was late at night .
In the bedroom, Angele was having a sweet dream on a large bed .
Although he was a wizard, he still enjoyed sleeping from time to time; it would make him feel relaxed .
The cold moonlight shined through the window and landed by the bed . A white shadow slowly appeared in the moonlight—it looked like a woman . The woman stood by the bed quietly and stared at Angele .
*Ugh*
Angele made some noise and turned to the other side . The woman could only see his back .
The white shadow disappeared after Angele made the noise like she was never here .
Angele suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes and looked in the direction of where the woman was standing .
"This thing can go through my barrier…" he muttered . The painting started bothering Angele again, however, he had to keep visiting it as he needed the material for the summoning spell .
Also, Angele still wanted to find out the truth about the painting and would not give up just for some strange things that had been happening to him recently .
*Crank*
It looked like that the door was pushed open by some wind; it was dark outside .
Angele got off the bed, walked to the door, and was about to close it .
*PA*
A pale hand grabbed his wrist and tried to drag him to the other side of the door .
Angele's expression changed, it felt like his right wrist was locked by a claw and his bone ached . The pale hand's pull was so strong that Angele could barely stand still .
He realized that what outside the door was no longer his living room, it had to be the entrance to somewhere dangerous .
'I can't be dragged to the other side!'
He tried to resist the pale hand and his body was trembling .
"Damn!" he shouted and stabilized his feet . Angele released a lot of black smoke .
*BAM*
He won .
Angele's sight blurred and everything disappeared . He was holding the handle of the door in hand and could see the moonlight on the living room's floor . The place was cold and quiet .
"Damn it!" He hit the door hard and made some loud noise .
"It seems like you want me to stop…" He assumed the painting was trying to stop him from studying it .
Red light appeared around his eyes and it looked like boiling lava .
"I won't give up the painting . I need the dust for my spell that helps me study the realm power . You'll pay for what you have done…" he muttered .
*BAM*
The door was slammed close .
***************************
There were birds twittering outside the window .
"Have a seat, please . This is a special flower tea I made with tongue fruit and green flower leaves . Try it . "
Angele put down two wooden cups and sat opposite Fir in the living room . Fir was wearing a tight black dress .
It was early in the morning and he could see the white smoke rising from the wooden cups . The creamy and fragrant smell of the tea permeated the air .
Fir was a bit surprised after she saw Angele . The elite wizard who was smart and calm looked a bit tired for some reason . She could even see the dark circles around his eyes .
"I apologize if I'm mistaken but are you having trouble sleeping recently? I have some tranquilization potion here…"
Angele smiled . "Thank you, but using the tranquilization potion is risky, I might get addicted . Don't worry, it's nothing serious . "
Fir nodded . "I almost forgot that you're a potion master too but our wedding is tomorrow and I hope that you're prepared for it . "
Angele was a bit speechless after hearing those words .
The two would be sleeping on the same bed soon but they were talking like they just met each other . Fir was being very polite to him and it made the situation even stranger .
"Don't worry . People all know why we're getting married . " Angele smiled .
Fir heard that and nodded .
It was true that Fir never loved Angele and Angele never loved her . They were getting married because Vivian asked them too .
Fir was a wizard that loved research and exploration just like Angele did .
"I can talk to Vivian if you don't like me," Fir spoke in a low voice as she stared at Angele's dark circles . "Also, I'm here to see how you're doing on the hill . Do you mind if I take a look around?"
"Of course, go ahead . " Angele shrugged . "Ah, I have some deserts I made in the kitchen . I'll grab you some . " He stood up and walked to the kitchen . He disappeared at the corner quickly .
Fir grabbed the wooden cup and sipped some tea . The tea was tasty and creamy, it quickly warmed up her body .
She suddenly heard the footsteps coming from the staircase . The noise was crisp and rhythmical .
"Master Green? That was fast . " Fir put down the cup and saw a woman in a white dress walk into Angele's bedroom .
Fir's brow furrowed, it felt like that the woman did not see her at all .
"We're not even married yet and you're already doing this to me?" Fir was Angele's fiancée after all and was a bit angry . She thought the woman was trying to make her jealous .
"I'll find out why master Green loves you so much!" Fir stood up and looked at the kitchen, however, she noticed that Angele was not making any noise .
"Is he doing this on purpose?" Fir felt even worse .
She decided to go and talk to the woman . Fir was certain that the woman was not from the Elemental Hand and assumed that Angele was keeping a local resident in his own house .
"A mortal will get old in just a couple years and she'll no longer be attractive… I'm different…" Fir smiled .
"I'll still be the same 200 years later . "
Fir pursed her lips and walked to the bedroom . The door of the bedroom suddenly closed as Fir stepped into the room .
************************
"Fir?!" Angele sat down with a plate of peanut muffins in his hand . He glanced around but could not where Fir was .
The tea on the table was still warm but Fir was nowhere to be found .
Angele's brow furrowed, it only took him around ten seconds to grab the dessert but Fir disappeared after he came back .
"Where are you, Fir?!" he shouted .
No one responded .
Angele noticed that something was off . He stood up and scanned the area using the biochip .
He looked around and noticed that the door was his bedroom was closed .
"I don't think I locked the door…"
He walked to the bedroom but thought of the pale hand he saw last night and decided not to open the door .
"Fir!" he shouted . "Talk to me if you're inside the bedroom!"
Angele moved away from the bedroom, he checked the guest room and the storage but he did not find anyone .
"I have a bad feeling about this… Fir is gone . "
He rushed to the staircase but realized that he had not opened the bedroom's door yet .
Angele's expression changed, he walked to the bedroom but he found that someone locked the door from inside .
He hit the door hard .
*Bam*
*Crack*
The door of the bedroom was broken into pieces .
Inside the bedroom, Fir was hitting a door on the other side anxiously .
"Green, are you there?! Come on, open the door and let me go! I don't like jokes like this!"
Angele was surprised after he saw the scene .
The bedroom only had one door and Angele just entered through . There should be a window on the wall opposite to him but it was replaced by another door .
Fir heard the noise from behind, she turned her head around and looked at Angele with confusion in her eyes .
*Crank*
The door Fir was knocking slowly opened . A pale arm reached out and tried to grab Fir .
"Run!" Angele shouted and charged to Fir . He grabbed Fir's arm and dragged her away from the door .
The pale arm missed and everything disappeared after the two wizards' sights blurred for a second .
They were sitting opposite to each other in the living room . The tea and the peanut muffins were still on the table .
The tea was still nice and hot .
"What just happened?" Fir had no idea what just happened . She looked at her wrist but there was no mark on it . "You grabbed my wrist hard, right? What's going on?"
Lowering her hand, Fir raised her head, however, she noticed that Angele disappeared .
A woman in a white dress slowly walked up the stairs . Fir noticed that the woman's face was covered by her long hair .
Fir had trouble breathing . She watched the woman walk to the second floor and could no longer hear the footsteps .
"Green?!" Her voice was shaky . "Master Green, are you still here?"
"Fir! Fir!"
She could hear a voice coming from the far side and it sounded like Angele .
Fir's head ached and her sight blurred for a second again . She saw that Angele was shaking her shoulders anxiously .
"Are you alright? Answer me!"
Fir looked at Angele but noticed that there was a pair of pale feet standing on the second floor . It was the woman but her body was blocked by the staircase .
The woman was wearing a white dress and her skin was extremely pale .
For some reason, Fir knew that the woman was staring at her . It felt like that the woman could see through the objects that were blocking her sight .
Fir could feel a chill running down her spine .
