86 A Game Of Tag (1/2)

”This miss has always fancied playing games. This is just like hide and seek.” Hongyue replied, her eyes trained on something in the far distance. She didn't appear to care, but there was something about her that shot a chill up the shadow in front of her. Perhaps it was the way she talked or the way her eyes looked past him, but it was like she was taking him for a dead man.

Crazy.

He must be insane to think that.

He attempted to catch a grip on his nerves. No matter how hidden she was, he already dug her out, and she couldn't have any other moves. A menacing smirk crept up into his face, and his heart was overflowed with malicious satisfaction.

No.

He was confident that she had no other moves.

Neither the third prince nor this eldest miss was going to leave here alive because he had a trump card— he sealed their magic with a cancellation spell. Even if she really was a tiger, she'll have to meow like a harmless cat. As he reassured himself, his heart grew with delight.

”Games, is it? Then we'll have to play one for your death,” He remarked sharply.

Hongyue peered up at the person in front of her. From the beginning, she had never been looking at him, she was calculating down the time. Nonetheless, hearing him say such words grabbed her interest. For the first time, her eyes gazed into his eyes with a hint of anticipation.

Oh~

Such confidence.

She really wanted to break it down into pieces.

Yet she couldn't help but think of a missing point. For him to take such unnecessary actions just to kill her, did his resentment run deep into his bones? Running through her memories, she couldn't seem to recognize him at all, but it appeared like he held great contempt for her even to the point where he couldn't contain it and wanted to torture her before her death.

Seeing her doubtful eyes, the shadow mistakenly deemed that she was in shock.

”Oh? Did you finally figure it out? You can't practice your magic?”The grinning man leaned in closer to her face, ”I already sealed both of your powers. There's no need to struggle. How about it? Feeling helpless? Why don't you beg me to spare you?”
