Alice is now in Loren's villa. He tried to get out of there because the atmosphere is uncomfortable. Premonition kept saying things like that until Alice decided to go from there. This time Alice was around the border Antherius and Eldelius. There she was in a store that is where forecasters. Alice had to be there because there was something that had to be sure. Not long after, Alice meets a fortune teller who is elderly woman with typical attire forecasters there. See someone coming, forecasters was immediately mempersilahkannya sit and then Alice asked to reverse the tarot cards. However, suddenly a woman came there in a hurry ask forecast. Alice then mempersilahkannya and he went out of the room. Himself that seemed on the verge of destruction then looks around which turned out to be fulfilled by some person who is a fan himself. With pleasure, Alice share his signature and after that he decided to return to his residence. Alice is located in the city center and now he was sitting in a bar in the basement of the city. There were many musicians and other artists who are enjoying their time. When Alice sitting in a chair in front of the bartender, a young man who came to sit there and then say hello.
"Hey, aren't you the pianist?" asked the man to Alice
"Yes. You are right. what's your name?' ask Alice
"Marchel. Thats my name."
"You?"
"There's no need to be so surprised. it feels weird to see someone else with that expression in front of me,” Marchell said with a chuckle
"What are you doing here?"
"Especially apart from drinking."
"That is true. Turns out I was stupid."
“I heard your concert was in chaos. Is that really?”
"Yes. And now I'm running away."
"What happened?"
"Who knows. Suddenly they came and wanted to kill me. Only that."
“Killing you? It was terrible. how could they want to kill you? Are they assassins?”
"When it comes to that... I'm not sure either."
“It turned out to be notoriously troublesome too.”
"Do you think you're not famous yourself? No kidding."
"That's not a funny joke. Do you think all of this is just a coincidence?”
"What?"
"You seem to be hiding something?" Marchell whispered and instantly made Alice cough
'This man is dangerous,' Alice thought
Alice is currently in a place that she thinks is suitable for hiding for a while. If you go again now, it will be very troublesome. This time he had been in this place for quite a long time. Behind the calm that appeared within Alice, she was extremely frightened and almost lost control. It was not easy for him to endure. But now he had to do it for good.
"You, the reason you paint is because of your own will?" asked Alice curiously
"Not. Actually I don't like painting. But since I have that talent, I think it would be better if I don't like it. Am I wrong?"
"Not. What you said wasn't wrong."
"How about you? Did your parents force you to become a pianist?”
Alice then fell silent and recalled what the emperor had said at that time. Everyone gets a mission and becomes a part of his destiny. No one has the right to argue. He was the only one who dared to speak up. However, the task given to him was even more difficult than all of them. The burden that must be paid with life as if it was the right price. The silent Alice then looked at Marchell and tried to understand human thoughts. There everything that was the reason for him to live slowly turned into a thorn that could kill anyone who approached him. Time goes so fast. it is now night. Alice who no longer wanted to run away then herself came out of the bar and was about to go to her residence.
"You're leaving?" ask Marchell
"Yes. I have to go. See you later."
"Yes. Careful."
Alice then went to her residence and didn't have to wait long, she had arrived at the location using teleportation. The silence that felt empty made him feel emptiness for a moment. Even some of his servants had died because of the incident. Alice, who now lives alone, tries to gather some of the people she made as students and teach metaphysics and even astrology. Didn't expect that he would have quite a number of students. There were about 12 people who became his students and they all lived in his castle.
At night on a full moon, Alice entered a sealed room. The door can only be opened by him alone. A place where no one should set foot there. Because of that, Alice placed a strong seal to prevent anyone from entering. Behind the door is stored a forbidden object that has been at stake for his life. After a while Alice went to her room and there she saw the pocket watch she always remembered. With feelings full of ambition, Alice tried to tell all her students. And as soon as they said that, they made even more of a defense so that no one would break in there and steal the thing.
"From now on, I ask for your help to guard this place," said Alice in front of all her students
"Of course the teacher, we will protect this place and also you."
"Thank you."
As the days passed, Alice was now like a guild leader. He was always at home and never again traveled anywhere. The longer the time, the more he is faced with destiny. Some of his students have other activities around the country. Alice who is a homoculus of course will not age even though time has passed for so long. It was in the holy land of Antherius that some people from outside their city called it that. On a quiet night, the full moon this time turning red under the sky of Antherius it felt like being in a graveyard. The strange silence made Alice suspicious of it. And it turns out his hunch was never wrong. In that dark night a group of people dressed in black wearing strange white masks surrounded his residence. This time there were only 3 students along with him. The rest are in different places. Those people came to attack them using magic power and made a fuss. Alice who saw her students being defeated made her have to intervene.
