1 year later

" What are you saying!? " A beautiful redhead woman yelled with disbelief

" I said I will send Alyra to a magic school, that way she will become stronger and she can make new friends " A man with eccentric clothes responds her with a calm face

The redhead woman now makes an angered face " And that was your idea or someone told you to do it!? "

" It was my father idea, he said that that school will help her a lot " The man with eccentric clothes

makes a sad smile " I don't want her to leave too, but is the best we can do for her "

The woman laughs mockingly " Haha! you take me for a fool! you think I didn't notice how he looks me and how he prefers that b*tch of the Lockstar family! and now that she gave birth to a daughter everything become worst than before " the woman makes an annoyed face

The man walks in front f her and he embrace her " Elizabeth, calm down you know that I love you more than anyone and I only wanted the best for you and my daughter Alyra "

Elizabeth begins to cry in the man's c.h.e.s.t and he says with a hoarse voice" Then why did you marry her? "

He embraces her more tightly and says " You know why, my father wanted the connection with the Lockstar family to support or kingdom "

She raises her head to see him and with tears on her face she says " At least let me go with her "

The man makes a sad face and he says " I... I can't, I don't know when I will become the king, so I need you by my side "

Elizabeth hides her face on his c.h.e.s.t and whispers " ... promise me that she will be okay "

The man kisses her forehead and says " I promise you "

The next day the little girl was sent to The Zypher kingdom, not like a noble just like a normal student of a magic and sword academy, she spent 15 years of her life on that kingdom and in that time she became a great warrior after she turned 18 she finally come back to her home

" Hello father " A beautiful young woman with red hair and blue eyes smiled, she entered at the castle of the Lyrel kingdom where several maids, a middle-aged man with a crown, a young woman and a young man receive her with smiles on their faces the maids bow her heads

The middle age man with a crown approaches her and hugs her " Alyra! my beautiful daughter, you finally came back "

Alyra hugs her father with a smile on her face " Yes father, I'm back " after a few seconds they separate and Alyra turns to see the young woman and the young man behind her father "Hmm? who are they?

The middle-aged man smiles and he says " She is your sister, Ellen, Ellen come to great your sister "

The girl named Ellen walked in front of Alyra to then hug her with a very happy face " Nice to meet you, sister!! "

Alyra surprises but then she smiles and hugs her back " Oh? hehe, nice to meet you too, sister "

The middle age man sees them with a smile and when they stop embracing each other he says " And he is your fiance " he points at the young man next to Ellen

" Hello, I'm Bennet member of the Brywood family " he extended her hand to Alyra she shakes his hand but she could feel that he was c.a.r.e.s.sing her hand in an unusual way

She became nervous and surprised at the same time then she came back to her senses " Eh? a-a fiance... but you never told me anything, ne-never mind where is my mother? "

" She has been sick so she is still in her room " The middle-aged man responds her with a sad smile

Alyra makes a worried face and she says " Can I go to see her father? "

The middle-aged man nods and says with a calm face " Yes, you can, little Bennet and I will go to the Brywood family

Ellen raises her hand and yelled with worry " I will go with you, sister! "

Alyra and Ellen began to walk toward the room of the sick queen on the way Ellen began to speak " So sister how old are you? I'm 16 years old "

Alyra turns to see her with a smile and she says " I'm 18 just a few days ago was my birthday "

Ellen makes a surprised face " Eh? then congratulations sister! " she yelled with a smile

" Thank you! hehe " Alyra makes a sweet smile towards Ellen

" Can I tell you something? " Ellen makes a serious face

Alyra raises her eyebrows with surprise and she says " What? "

Ellen bows her head a little and says with a calm voice " I know that you don't want to marry that guy Bennet, I saw your face before "

" Ugh... " Alyra surprises and become nervous

" Don't worry, I won't tell my father, but if you want to cancel that marriage you need to become stronger than you are now, maybe that convinces our father " Ellen smiled happily

Alyra smiles sweetly again " Thanks for the advice sister, I will train to be stronger "

When they arrive at the room of the queen Ellen says " Now I will leave, I don't want to interrupt your reunion "

Alyra opens the door with a face full of worry " Mother! "

A woman with red hair was in a bed she has a very pale face but when she sees Alyra she smiled " Alyra, thank god you finally came back "

Alyra approaches her with a face full of worry " Mother, what happened? are okay? Do you need anything? "

The queen smiles to then pat the head of Alyra" Hehe, calm down silly girl, I'm okay, I have only been here for a little more than a weak, do you read my letters? "

Alyra smiles and grabs her hand with a smile " Yes, mother, I read every one of them "

The queen extended her hands towards Alyra and with a weak smile she says " Hehe, thats good, now come here and let that your mother embraces you "

Alyra hugs the queen and says " I missed you so much, mother "

The queen makes a sweets smile and says " I missed you too, my beautiful girl " then they separated and the queen says with a smile " Now look at you, you became really beautiful "

" You think so, mother? " Said Alyra with a shy face

The queen nods and says with a smile " Of course silly girl, I'm sure that every boy you met wanted to marry you "

Alyra shakes her head and makes a sad face " No, mother, those nobles didn't even glance at me "

The queen frowns and says " Then that's very stupid of them, but don't worry, I'm sure that one day you will meet someone especial "

" Thank you, mother " Alyra nods with a beautiful smile

Two months passed after that, Alyra discovered the death of Ellen's mother so she went to see her after that but Ellen had already accepted her death.

Alyra kept training every day to cancel her marriage, she really doesn't want to marry Bennet she felt that he has something wrong, sometimes Ellen joined her training, they discuss the rivalry that their mothers had before and she told that it was the time to end that

But one day something happened that changed the fate of these two sisters

" NOOO!!! " A scream of a young woman can be heard

Alyra heard that scream and she immediately recognized her owner " Ellen!! " she went to the place where she heard the scream using a speed technique and when she approached a door, she heard the scream again " NO! PLEASE STOP! " Alyra kicks the door and she entered with a panicked expression

She saw her fiance Bennet ripping the clothes of her sister with a face full of l.u.s.t " YOU BASTARD!! LEAVE OF HER!! " Alyra grabs Bennet from behind and she throws him to the other side of the room

" How dare you to make her that!! " Alyra makes a face full of hate and she takes out her sword " Ack....!! " but when she was about to attack him she felt a stabbing pain in her back " What....? " Alyra started to feel weak and she turned to see behind her

" Why? " Alyra saw Ellen stabbing her back with a knife covered with a purple liquid

" Hehe, that really worked, I never thought you would fall in my first plan, you really are naive, sister " Ellen makes a mockingly smile and she takes out the knife from Alyra's back

" ... " Alyra falls on her knees feeling really weak then she falls completely to the ground unable to speak or move

" Aw.. that hurt, you were right she came " Bennet walks behind Ellen with a pained face then he turns to see says " Now can I have my reward " Bennet hugs Ellen from behind grabbing one of her b.o.o.b.s and kissing her neck

Ellen makes an annoyed face and hits him with her elbow " Not now you fool, go to your home, I have something to do " Bennet looks surprised but he still leaves with a grinning face, after he left Ellen kneels next to Alyra

" You know, I never saw you as a family, the same goes for that maid you call mother, she is just lucky to be here, my mother always wanted to kill both of you, but now that she is dead, I think I have to do it for her " Ellen makes a beautiful smile

" ..... " Alyra sees her with doubt

Ellen sat on Alyra's back and she continued speaking with a smile " Hehe, I think I know what are you trying to say, the truth is that I shared the hate that my mother had for you two, my father always showed more love to your mother than my mother and that is something I always hated, but if you die at least I will happy and don't hope to anyone came to help you all the knights in the castle are on my side "

" ... " Alyra narrows her eyes with anger

" But I can't kill you two without alerting my father, so, I thought that maybe I can kill you slowly but... " Ellen kept smiling until she felt Alyra moving under her

" Uh..... " Alyra trembles a little

Ellen sees Alyra with surprise " It seems that the effects of the poison are passing fast, you really are strong, that's why I thought it will better if I do this... " Ellen removes the hair from Alyra's neck-tossing it to the side " This f*cking red hair you and your dirty mother disgust me " Ellen grabs Alyra's hair with disgust then her right hand shines with a purple light then she grabbed Alyra's neck

" Ugh....! " Alyra makes a pained expression and she began to feel that something is happening to her body

" You can feel it, haha, this is me draining your powers, hahaha! " Ellen makes a crazy laugh and her right hand began to blink faster and faster and after 10 minutes Ellen removes her hand from Alyra's neck

Ellen stands up seeing her hands with a very happy face " Hahaha, yes! now I'm an Advanced Great Magic Swordsman! " Ellen turns to see Alyra that was fighting to get up

" How... dare you... you will pay for this... when my father knows " Alyra has a tired face but she made an angered expression

" Hehe, I don't think you will tell him anything at least if you want that your mother stays alive " Ellen makes a mockingly smile

" What...? " Alyra made a surprised face

" Tell me something, you really thought that she was sick? she has been like that for years, you are more foolish than I thought " Ellen surprises with a smile on her face " I was the one who put her on the bed "

" You b*tch!! " Alyra grabs her sword from the floor and she points to Ellen

Ellen smirks coldly and she says " Oh, no! I can still kill her from here, the curse that I put on her let me do that! "

Alyra puts down her sword slowly " Grr... what the hell do you want, I know that you don't want to kill me "

Ellen sees Alyra with disdain " Hehe, I want all your powers if you keep training I will keep your mother alive "

" ....fine " Alyra responded reluctantly when she had her head bowed

Ellen walked to the door and she turned to see Alyra before she left " Oh! one more thing you better don't approach our father if you do I will kill her in an instant "

When Ellen left Alyra turned red from anger, clenching her fist with a lot of strength making her palms bleed " Grr!!! "

A half-year passed and Ellen kept draining Alyra's power to the point of exhaustion, Alyra's hair changed in some places from red to white even her eyes were affected, her right eye is light purple and her left eye is light blue

Alyra was in full of despair and a day she tried to search help from her father only to be caught by Ellen, Ellen burned all left side of her face with fire magic, but for some reason, Ellen didn't kill her mother, that made Alyra really suspicious

A day before she met Hayato

Alyra sneaked to the room of her mother just to find an empty bed, she started to panicking and that's when she discovered the truth

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

" That happened, but Yesterday...yesterday...i..i found out that she killed my mother more than half a year ago…..my father thought that it was the fault of a disease… but I know it was her…. the maid who told me that was close to my father so she knew what he thought about that…... I will never forgive her…. even if my father tries to protect her…. I'm going to kill her… but now she is too strong, so for me is impossible to beat her " Alyra clenches her fist and cried with frustration and sadness until Hayato approaches her and hugs her surprising her a lot

" It's ok Alyra, I'm going to make you stronger and when you surpass her you will have your revenge " Hayato pats her back

" You will help me…. with that too….. " Alyra cried in the shoulder of Hayato and she returns the hug

" Yes, you are my partner now, so I will help you with that " Hayato spoke with a confident voice

" Thanks... Hayato... " Alyra cries with joy this time and she hides her face in Hayato's shoulder

" I'm your partner too, so don't leave me behind " Dye embrace Hayato from behind surprising him, Alyra doesn't seem to be aware of Dye, she was still hugging Hayato
