Chapter 291: Fate Touch
Both Jessie and Destiny Lady froze for a moment and soon widened their eyes.
"Go back and protect others. I will go after Omen." Destiny Lady said in a grave tone and cast [Crystal Wings] spell on herself.
"Wait! It might be a trap to lure you out of the mansion, Lady Natalia. Why not just stay here? We have hundreds of elite Royal Guards to protect us, right?"
Just as Jessie finished her words, Omen let out a chuckle and spoke while infusing his voice with the wisdom power.
"You shouldn't cower in fear when seeing an enemy, lass. You have to face them head-on."
Upon hearing those words, Jessie and Destiny Lady felt that it was right to chase after him!
They completely forgot about their earlier cautiousness!
Destiny Lady flapped her crystalline wings without hesitation, rose in the sky, and flew towards the mansion entrance.
Meanwhile, Jessie also touched the silver bracelet in her right hand and looked up at the dark sky.
The next instant, two illusionary wings appeared behind her back and spread outwards.
Using her thoughts, she flapped the illusionary wings and was about to jump forward but stopped.
At this moment, her second consciousness noticed the anomaly and took control over her body!
The next instant, Jessie's main consciousness entered her Inner World and realized that Omen had already tampered with some of her memories!
'His skill could only affect me? No the Inner World, or my other consciousnesses?' She got startled for a moment and spoke.
"Good timing. Let's contact our Teacher and inform him about the situation first." Jessie spoke as she erased the modified memories, left the Inner World, and took control of her body.
Simultaneously, she flapped her Illusionary wings and jumped from the terrace.
At that moment, she also took out a golden ring from her pocket and contacted Charles.

"What happened, lass?" An old man's voice came from the other side.
"Teacher, Omen is still alive." As she flew towards Omen, she explained their current situation shortly.
Meanwhile, Destiny Lady already landed on the Rodsley Street road and stared at Omen coldly.
Noticing the commotion, a few Royal guards also opened the compound gate in a hurry and stared at both of them in confusion.
Without minding their arrival, Omen stared deeply at Destiny Lady and spoke.
"It's better to battle in a quiet place, right? Follow me."
A second later, he extended his hand and flew upward!
'He is not even using any wing spell... But how?' Shock appeared on Destiny Lady's face and soon turned into disbelief.
"Rank-5?" She asked in an alarmed tone.
'No, it's impossible. Omen must have strong control over soul power. But he should be at the last stage to breakthrough into the next realm!'
While she was in muse, Jessie also arrived beside her and spoke.
"Lady Natalia, please enter your Inner World and see if your memories are tampered with. Also, order your other consciousness to switch positions from time to time even without receiving your orders."
"He manipulated our thoughts?" Destiny Lady wore a doubtful look, nodded her head, and entered her Inner World.
Then, she hurriedly looked at illusionary herself and noticed that her memories were indeed tampered with!
'I need to remove these modified memories soon and take control of my body. Otherwise, my psychopath second consciousness might do something reckless.' She couldn't help but get anxious inside.
In the meantime, her second consciousness took control over her body and looked up at the dark sky in excitement.
It was as if this consciousness was expecting such opportunity for a long time!
Unlike Destiny Lady, this second consciousness was a reckless and impatient one.

At that moment, 'Destiny Lady' raised her hand, conjured an ice sword filled with pure law power, and shifted her gaze towards Jessie.
It was her most powerful Rank-4 spell, Freezing Blade!
Then, she made a sword stance, released her full wisdom power, and thrust it towards Jessie's head at a terrifying speed!
Simultaneously, layers of ice crept towards all directions from her feet!
Upon noticing the sudden change, Jessie was scared out of her wits!
'I'm going to die!' Such a thought appeared in her mind.
Just when the sharp ice sword was about to touch her overcoat, Destiny Lady curled her lips upward and spoke in a cold tone.
"Fate Swift."
A moment later, Jessie's figure turned blurry and was replaced with Omen!
Before Omen could understand the situation, the pure law-infused sword tore through the air and pierced into his neck!
Although he tried his best to stop the blade from moving deeper using his wisdom power, his attempt turned futile!
Shock and disbelief appeared on Omen's face.
Although his skill could manipulate others' thoughts, it wasn't an omnipotent one.
If Jessie's second consciousness hadn't acted earlier, things would have gone in the wrong direction.
Unfortunately, it did.
'I'll die here.' Omen tried to raise his hand but soon noticed that layers of ice had already started moving towards his body and freezing him!
Blood gushed out from his torn neck and splashed on the crystalline sword, his dress, and on the dirt road.
Without any delay, he opened his mouth and spat out two words.
"Fate Touch."
Although nothing abnormal happened after he said those words, Destiny Lady didn't delay for a single moment and attacked him once again.
She pulled her crystalline sword, slashed at his neck, and completely severed his head!
At this moment, Jessie also flew from the sky with a dumbfounded look, landed two meters away from the crazy Destiny Lady, and asked in a shocked tone.
"That's it?"
Meanwhile, Destiny Lady also took control over her body and stared at the scene in shock.
'Not even 3 seconds has passed, but she almost killed Jessie.' Cold sweat dripped down from her forehead.
She soon woke up from the shock, stared at the headless corpse, and frowned.
'Something feels off.'
Before she could think further, one of the nearby Royal Guards screamed.
She turned her gaze towards the particular leather armored guard and widened her eyes.
At that moment, she saw a piercing sword wound appeared on his neck area!
Blood gushed out from the wound, drenched his dress and the leather armor.
A second later, a sharp ray appeared on his neck area and completely decapitated his head!
Simultaneously, Omen's head rose from the ground, moved on its own, and soon attached to the dancing headless body.
Then, a bright red light appeared over his neck area and completely healed his wounds!
Omen opened his eyes in less than two seconds and stared at Destiny Lady in shock and fear.
If he had delayed one second, he would've died permanently!
"Do not move!" He said in a cold tone and flew towards the sky at a terrifying speed.
But before he could fly 100 meters away from the mansion, a humanoid flame appeared in front of him and soon formed into the figure of a deep-blue-haired young man.
A moment late, two crimson wings appeared behind him and flapped on their own.
"Charles." Omen's expression changed drastically.

The Shadow Paradigm - Book 1: Project Orb Weaver
Gardening, cooking, innovation, preservation, charity events... Madzistrale, Tom and Gabzryel does it all. But when they encounter the mysterious Shiakar Paradigm Society, a clash of paradigms ensues. Although both groups are aiming to make humanity stand stronger, their ideals and methods could not be further apart. Between the trio's optimistic yet naive ideals, and the SPS's tried-and-true surgical methods, determining the answer which methods can better humanity is a struggle that both parties must resolve in their own ways... Welcome to the 7th revision of my 10+ years ongoing novel trilogy. This revision took out some flawed plot concepts to re-introduce a more down-to-earth, film noir-like ambience, where a battle of wits is what will determine the outcome. It also added instead more in-depth expansion into the lives and mindsets of the characters, especially the heroes (a missing factor in older versions). Third-view limited storytelling was also introduced more prominently over my favoured third-view omnipotent, with each chapters concentrating as much as possible on a single character's point of view instead of head-hopping. So I shall begin uploading the chapters as I finish them; they're edited as much as I can, but there'll most likely be some typos and mistakes. As always, I welcome your comments and critiques, and I hope you enjoy reading that story as much as I did creating it! A parting poem to introduce the story (translated from its original French version): Credit: Les Mots, Mylene Farmer & Seal Firmly, the sky writhes When a mouth begets a death There, I will give my life to hear you To tell you the most tender words When all becomes all alone I'll break my life for a song And to lives that stoop to notice mine I know I will say goodbye But a fraction of this life I would give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives You could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple If one swept the world away One could touch the universe I will tell you how the sun rose high We could with a word become one And for all those words that hurts us There are those that touches us Which illuminates, touches the infinity Even if nothingness exists For a fraction on this life We will give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives We could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple
