(Glacia: I was born a slave. Had to fight my whole life just to get a piece of bread that would last me for months. Crazy.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalzc9Ttd8M
Well, eventually I got my chance. In order to improve my family's life, I started fighting in the arena. Turns out, I was good at killing people. Before I knew it, I had pulled my family out of misery. I thought that would be it. Finally free.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcQQ5AevCz
But my parents had other plans. They forced me to keep fighting so they could increase their wealth and influence. And I obeyed. I mean—they were my parents! I had no choice!15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsnTDAiXbT
Time passed, and then I’d had enough. I rebelled. Of course, my parents weren’t pleased. They blamed me for everything that had ever gone wrong in their lives. But they knew they couldn’t beat me head-on. So they found another way—they tricked me. And before I knew it, I was behind bars again.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6Bx0oKwmB
I don’t have to tell you about illegal prison fights. That’s where I ended up. Once more, I was forced to fight for survival. I came to hate it—but it was the only way. I fought and fought, lost track of time… and eventually, I made it out.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryV9eG0Efr
When I returned, my family had lost everything. My siblings had died. Only the newborn of my parents had survived. And the fighting resumed. But this time, it was on my terms.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6h5xBjlsd5
Naturally, my parents didn’t like that. They threatened to sell my little sister if I didn’t earn enough money. Somehow, they discovered my plan to escape with her. They used their remaining wealth to buy a fighter—one they no longer needed.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSJWIGM3Go
Because their hatred for me had grown so deep, they ordered him to kill me. It was a bitter fight. And during it... I killed my parents and destroyed everything.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiSkqU5UkX
But I found out my sister had already been sold.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMInnasy1E2
I set out to find her. Someone told me she’d been sold into slavery. With my power, I could’ve stormed in and taken her by force—but I needed intel. And I got it the only way I knew how: by fighting.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyC0ygngtB
When I finally tracked down the person who had her, I learned she was already dead. And the wounds on her body told me everything I needed to know.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfbaqsMxaQ
They’d used her.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaOK3HLuSQ
I lost control and destroyed everything—truly everything. It took the arrival of other Nobles to finally restrain me.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLce7Ak4U8v
When I met the king, I had two choices: fight for him... or die by his hand.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYUH3W5VjA
I chose to die.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiu4nqLJJx
But the king had other plans. He threw me into prison. That’s when I learned humans on this side were helping demons and angels cross over.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RcbUnAJ1B
I escaped—hoping to finally be free. I didn’t intend to come here to kill. No. I just wanted peace.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcMR6dMurj
And what did I get?15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdLuSnoifB
Exactly—trapped again. Forced to fight. Again.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24sbCw6ZDT
It never ends.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1QepTpYpb
Never. Never. Nev)—
"I’ll make it stop then."
Nade stepped forward, voice firm.
"My story isn’t as tragic as yours. But I know what it feels like—to be forced, to have your freedom ripped away, to be reduced to a tool.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK40rjGpON
Glacia, I understand you better now.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5V8U0ZeE3I
We don’t have much time. You said it yourself.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CQ7PirQ7C
So… will you fight one last time? Not for someone. But with someone?15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvsPnBUT0E
We are bound by soul.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQquZDnxdfI
You know the state of my body—I don’t have long. And I can feel our souls slowly merging.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFgACS7qg6
I think that’s their plan. They need your soul. So they’re fusing ours together so you can’t escape.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVzTSs9IEU
But there’s still a chance. If we get out of here—if we defeat the enemy—we can force Temphael to undo it.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5rk9sGg2i
Then you’ll be free.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVJeGPC3rS
Of me.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32V1lCgvCG
So I ask again—will you fight with me?"
Nade’s lips curved into a grin. But the voice that came from him had changed—higher, feminine.
"You’re a funny one," Glacia’s voice rang through him.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5EekJ3r4w
"Then let’s do it. I’ll show them why they call me the Ice Queen!"15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46JmBywy9H
