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 Foretold: Sun Child (Complete)
As a sixteen year old commoner, your future is bleak. Worse, your appearance sets you apart from others. Your only achievement so far, is befriending the second son of the Lord of the Keep. He has been your only friend for eleven years, initially partner in mischief and later your hunting companion and confidant. Now your friendship is being torn asunder, he has turned eighteen and is being sent away to become a Judge Knight Aspirant. What is to become of you? Before your friend leaves, there is murder and conspiracy! Magic left the land hundreds of years ago, all you have is your bow and hunting skills, nevertheless you must fight to survive and save another to have any hope of a future! Note: The graphic isn't mine; it is a re-imagining of a few separate images, any objections by original artists let me know. N.B. If you are looking for Sexual Content every chapter, or every second, third or fourth chapter this isn't the story for you - the Sexual Content is required for a plot device, not a way of life and the later chapters reflect that - please stop dropping Low Ratings when you feel I haven't met your idea of "fan service". This is finished as much as a multi book vision can be finished. At 750,000 words give or take and very little readership I can only blame myself. I have learnt a lot, possibly forgotten a lot as well! I will probably return to the Chapters at some point - a touch up here and a touch up there. The second book though will probably remain in my head for a very long time, so yes "cliffs" although I hope the characters and their motivations are developed enough that you can have a good guess at the content of Book Two and tell me so I can confirm or deny! This isn't a LITRPG where classes are developed, great foes are defeated by a hero of immense power. This is a story based within (I hope) a very real and consistent culture, that leaves breadcrumbs for the reader to work out what the heck is happening and why. This is a slow burn story as the MC is stumbling around discovering her new place and role. Author's Note (Apr 2021): I dropped the Fantasy Genre for the Mystery Genre, because while the setting mentions magic, is it about past glories and trying to return to them. Whereas the MC from Chapter One doesn't understand her predicament and the range of mysteries she must solve to survive. If I have this wrong PM me and I will change this back.

My Newest, and at the same time, Oldest novel. This is a Rewrite of my very first novel that I begun when I was just starting out. It follows the story of Mark Floyd, a broken man who once tried to do what he thought was right... only to be stabbed in the back and thrown away.Now, pulled into a conflict that spans time and space, Mark has a choice to make; Stand up once more, even if it means facing an unknowable future, or let the Embers of his heart die and sink back into darkness. ----------------------------------- “For gold is tried in the fire, and acceptable men in the furnace of adversity”. Once part of a Special Ops team in the US Army, Mark Floyd thought he had seen the worst that Humanity had to offer. That was until his final mission, one that would leave him a broken and shattered man, betrayed by the Country he served, and abandoned by society as a whole. His dreams filled with nightmares of the ones he failed to protect, mind and memories clouded by booze and more, Mark finds himself stumbling through life without purpose or desire. Life isn't done with Mark yet, however. For as long as even a single ember remains in a persons heart, here is still yet hope for the flames of Passion and Hope to be Rekindled. When the dying embers of Mark's heart catches the eyes of a Being far beyond his understanding, Mark finds himself thrown into a situation not even his years of training could prepare him for. Will this new chance be Mark's hope at both Redemption and Recompense? Or will it simply be the final nail in the coffin for a man already dead to the World? [This is a rework of my very first story. The general story will remain the same, however a few details have been tweaked, the chapters have be Edited better and some chapters have been broken down into smaller chunks for better flow and consistency. The biggest change will be to the System itself; It will be a lot less "Game-like", meaning no stats, levels or similar aspect, though skills will still be present in the form of "Programs". Instead, It'll focus more on the Sigil's nature as super-computers and how they change the world around them. This should make for a much more "natural" and less info-dumpy system.
