24 Chapter 22: Soul Switch Witch (1/2)

[ Violence ]

Ivery opened her eyes with a splitting headache...

”W..Where the hell am I?” Ivery looked around at her surroundings

Ivery looked around at her surroundings...in a jail cell...

...

She looked at her pale and dirtied hands and all of the whip scars all across her thin bare arms...what the hell happened? Her hands were chained together in two thick rusted metal shackles.

She touched her hair...and pulled it in front of her eyes...and saw that her hair was a totally different color...matted and unkempt and dark purple...

People in this world have abnormally colored hair...but since it was a magic-based world that has dragons, monsters and ...hair color was the farthest thing from abnormal in this world.

Ivery concluded this was not her body...so who's was it?

Ivery then looked at the people around her...and they looked at her in terror..

”Murder!” One of them shouted

”What?” Ivery looked at them with confusion

She looked down and saw a pentagram...drawn with what looked like blood...and several symbols around the pentagram also written with blood...

She looked beside her and saw a man face down on the ground with a glass shard in the back of his neck.

”What did this girl do...?” Ivery thought to herself

...

Her eyes opened and she sat up...in the most comfortable place, she's ever been in her life..

She touched the strange thing she was sitting on with amazement...she didn't know what it was.

”You're finally awake” An alluring voice said beside her

She turned her head and saw a god...no it was a man! How could a man look so handsome...it should've been impossible to have such perfect features and bone structure..and not a single blemish could be found on his skin.

”W-Who...?” She looked at him in shock and her face was hot and beaming red

”Ivery are you okay?” He asked

”Y-Yes” She nodded...so the body she's in is named Ivery...

Loki stretched and sat up on the foot of the bed. He looked at Ivery and his eyes widened..

”Prince Luther..” Loki's heart started racing

”I have no time for you” Luther didn't care whatever Loki had to say

”That's not Ivery...” Loki thought to himself

Loki sensed Ivery's soul somewhere not too far from here...if he's sensing Ivery's soul somewhere else....then who the hell is the girl in front of him?

...

Ivery looked closely at the pentagram...she's seen it before but where...?

Ivery suddenly felt a power surge through her body...her infinite energy..? How does she still have it and she's not in her body? Strange..

Her infinite energy seemed to slowly flow through this body, trying to connect to the body's prowess core.

.

.

”They're in here” voices were heard nearby

Ivery saw a tall man with a nobles attire, accompanied by two more nobles who looked at her and the rest of them like bugs that lived in dirt.

”What the hell happened!?” The nobleman yelled when he saw the obviously dead body next to 'Ivery'

”S-She killed him!” One of them pointed to 'Ivery'

His eyes then focused on the blood pentagram in front of 'Ivery', his eyes were consumed with rage as he quickly opened the jail cell door.

”It's a witch!” The man yelled

The guards came charging in.

”Take her to the guillotine! Now!” The nobleman yelled

”Yes sir” The guards said as they roughly grabbed 'Ivery'

”Wait! You've got it wrong! I didn't kill him and I didn't make the pentagram! I swear!” Ivery pleaded

”Who dares to listen to a witches lies! Hurry it up and kill the witch! Burn her corpse so she doesn't rise from the dead for revenge!” The nobleman ordered

”Yes sir” The guards nodded and proceeded to drag 'Ivery' away

”Wait!” Ivery yelled

...

”Do you need anything to drink?” Luther rubbed her head gently

”W-Water would be nice...” She blushed and her eyes glistened with infatuation

”Of course...I'll be back with it” Luther smiled and got up from the bed

..

She got up from the bed and walked around the enormous room...the room was so elegant and filled with endless valuables that looked almost priceless...the ceiling was so high up...she could barely see the chandelier.

”What a spoiled life she must have...” She walked up to a giant mirror and saw...the outstanding beauty of this body

Silky light blonde hair..that her finger's easily passed through..not a single tangle or knot...flawless skin...beautiful ruby red eyes...she lifted her hands up and her nails were perfectly manicured with not even a speck of dirt or grime underneath her nails and her hands were small, smooth and soft...

Her clothes smelled refreshing and the air in the room smelled so rich...

Loki looked at her with malice in his eyes...knowing very well that she was not Ivery. She looked and acted like she was seeing this room she had for 4 years for the first time...and Ivery never looked in the mirror and played around with her hair..

The doors opened and Luther walked over to her and handed her the glass of water..

”T-Thank you..” She smiled

”Anything for you” Luther smiled back

She took a single sip of the water and...even the water tasted rich and purified, it was so smooth and that made it taste all the better...although it didn't really taste like anything..water is water.

”Prince Luther” Loki didn't like the prince but how would he react if he knew who he was interacting so gently with wasn't Ivery...

”Are you still tired?” Luther asked her, ignoring Loki

”Prince Luther!” Loki raised his voice

”What do you want? This better be worth my time” Luther coldly looked at Loki with impatient eyes

”Can we talk over there for a minute..? It's something you'd want to know...now” Loki was dead serious

”If it is not...you will face the consequences of wasting my time on trivial matters..” Luther walked to where Loki pointed

Loki ran over to the farthest area away from that 'girl'...

”That is not Ivery” Loki bluntly told him

”What?” Luther raised his eyebrow

”That girl..her soul is somebody else's...I sense Ivery's soul somewhere far but not too far from the castle...she somehow..switched souls with Ivery” Loki explained

”What!?” Luther turned his head and looked at the girl playing with her hair in the mirror

....

”I'm not lying I did not make that pentagram! I'm not a witch!” Ivery struggled in the hands of the two guards
