A man with lots of tattoos in all parts of his body, a flashy green and red hair and piercing in his nose and mouth, was hysterically laughing for a while before he turned around and looked at a small figure laying on top of a personally made bed.

The bed was all bloodied and was equipped with metal locks that immobilize all four limbs, making it practically impossible to escape. There, on this hard and cold 'bed', there was a very young boy, no more than five years old, with an inky black hair and an unusually pale skin. The kid was shaking from fear, his eyes looking all around, trying to avoid the man's intense stare.

Seeing the boy's fearful attitude, the tattooed man walked towards the bound boy, leaned his head closer to the victim before saying:

\"Do you know why you're name is Bin? Of course you don't! You only know how to cry and yell, as if it'll change anything. Honestly, it's such a waste… you had potential, intelligence-wise.\"

He turned around and raised an empty plastic garbage can, showing it to shaking child.

\"You're no different than this shitty trash! If not for the positive results I'm getting from you, I would have dissected your sorry ass.\"

The man angrily complained before letting out a sigh and shifting in attitude yet again. Strangely, he caressed a spot in his shoulder while softly saying:

\"Why can't you be like Shin? He's cool-headed, smart, and decisive. I know I'm not supposed to play favorites but he's definitely my best test subject!\"

Right after saying that, the man retrieved a syringe and without caring about the boy, stabbed it on the latter's chest and injected the liquid inside.



\"Ah!\"

Bin got up from his bed, his whole body sweating and his heart beating like crazy. His sudden movement woke up Mina, who was next to him.

\"Brother, what's wrong?\"

While keeping his thoughts to himself, Bin urged his little to sleep before going to the bathroom and closing the door. He put his head under the sink and let cold water pour over him, his mind drifting to the past, remembering things that he wished he could forget.

'It's been a long time… why now?'

For the past several months, he had not dreamt about that yet it came back so suddenly, making him feel rather uneasy. He stared at his reflection on the mirror, his hand pressed against his rapidly-beating heart, which seemed about to burst.

Unbeknownst to him, the pumps planted by Ann were moving so ridiculously fast as they got rid of an absurd amount of Mana which was emanating from his heart. At first, Bin felt nothing but as seconds passed by, he started hurting.

The pain was coming from his heart, causing him to fall on the ground and pant for no less than five minutes. Fortunately, he managed to calm himself and purge the past memories, making his body return to its normal state.

'Did it happen because of that invisible woman?'


Knowing that someone was secretly following him reminded him of some despicable thing that occurred in the past. Anyways, Bin soon returned to the bed and fell asleep again, thankfully not having any more nightmares.

FORTUNA HOSPITAL- VIP SECTION

The assemblyman, whose face covered in bandages, was laying on his bed and thinking about something only for the sliding door of the room to open up.

\"I told you I don't want to talk to anyone.\"

Right after he said that, he heard a sweet voice from the entrance.

\"Uncle.\"

He turned around only to see a blond-haired girl accompanied by a man in a dark blue suit with glasses. He knew both of them but was confused about their sudden present here and at this time.

\"O-oh, so it's you Melissa.\"

Secretary Park stood at the entrance of the room while Melissa walked up to the assemblyman.

\"Are you alright? What happened?!\"

Though she spoke with concern, her face remained expressionless. She stopped next to Hayden's bed and looked at his bandaged and disgusting face.

\"It's noth-\"

Before he could finish, the girl cut-him off by saying:

\"It's doesn't look like nothing, uncle. Who did this to you?\"

Although he found her behavior strange, Haydon still answered, finding it more suitable to ease her curiosity so she could leave right away.

\"A crazy bastard, he-\"

Yet again, he was interrupted after saying three words.

\"Why would he attack an assemblyman though?\"

Haydon lightly coughed and half-heartedly said:

\"With my current status, it's normal to have a small public opposition.\"

\"I don't think it's that though.\"

She coldly retorted, her hands fiddling with the medical equipment. As he maintained his silence while giving her a weird look, the blond girl calmly resumed talking:

\"You know what I think? I think you're brazenly lying to me and that's not something I like.\"

Her sudden shift in tone alarmed Haydon, who tried to sit up only for her to push him back on the bed.

\"M-Melissa?\"

\"As Rika's father, I gave you the basic level of respect but I don't think it's necessary.\"

She flashed a sweet smile at him before signaling Secretary Park with her hand. The moment she did that, the glass-wearing man appeared next to her and immediately started what was previously planned.

Threads made of light came out of his hands and tied Haydon while Melissa stuck something in the assemblyman's mouth.

\"I don't want you yelling… plus, you only have to listen.\"

Just like anyone in the Magic Academy, Melissa was also able to use Magic.

Her hand flashed with a white light before it grabbed Haydon's neck. The strength behind her grip was simply monstrous yet the girl didn't bat an eye when she saw his face turn red, suffocating from lack of oxygen.

\"As you most definitely know, my family has deep connections with the underworld so it's getting rid of an assemblyman is not a difficult thing. Haydon Parmalee, if I ever see you near Rika ever again, it won't end with a simple suffocation, I assure you that.\"
