Chapter 139

It was late at night.
Belkiel sat at his desk with a darkened face, deeply lost in thought. The red blessing that had appeared on Sez's forehead lingered in his mind. After leaving the palace, Belkiel searched throughout Den Helder but never encountered anyone with an extraordinary amount of magical power.
It was as easy as he had expected, but his reason for enduring all the hardship was...
“She... Sez… passed through the barrier on the first day we met.”
“Damn…”
“I thought it was because her soul was distorted…”
He earnestly hoped that it wasn't true. Belkiel still resisted believing what he saw after the mark of Eton's blessing appeared on Sez's forehead.
"Yes, right. That could never happen, Seraphina."
If that were the case, it would mean she’d forgotten everything and was living a peaceful life despite all she had done.
"Eton's time is still frozen on that day; how could you...?"
