(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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKrTbRxL3K
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPJfZmtwhE
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!50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrmoxCiABV
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz3hWNJ2Zc
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT7VMMTbHX
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNS6JwOkRd
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJ7PASU2O3
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8XU96Aoem
But I found out my sister had already been sold.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvBUnaI9B5
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT5EtwLK2G
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S3Z1eAx8P
They’d used her.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcXDE7FSBK
I lost control and destroyed everything—truly everything. It took the arrival of other Nobles to finally restrain me.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZKZTY9hWg
When I met the king, I had two choices: fight for him... or die by his hand.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAu5qVThqQV
I chose to die.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gORxY6Y3e
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1O4ZlpSb6U
I escaped—hoping to finally be free. I didn’t intend to come here to kill. No. I just wanted peace.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxCyPzEY3T
And what did I get?50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhN72vAApg
Exactly—trapped again. Forced to fight. Again.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXjZ81kGhR
It never ends.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl77BzZngOS
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpdFldMi4d
Glacia, I understand you better now.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzPfdY4I3H
We don’t have much time. You said it yourself.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdjLPqnY7x
So… will you fight one last time? Not for someone. But with someone?50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYvSmftJeA
We are bound by soul.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlL8uwWmU4
You know the state of my body—I don’t have long. And I can feel our souls slowly merging.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLm7fHhQmYn
I think that’s their plan. They need your soul. So they’re fusing ours together so you can’t escape.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbsdcr9uiB
But there’s still a chance. If we get out of here—if we defeat the enemy—we can force Temphael to undo it.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9TvwgFECt
Then you’ll be free.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BGmXcXbTB
Of me.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUc6z2SbsG
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.50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUPsN4WvpI
"Then let’s do it. I’ll show them why they call me the Ice Queen!"50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRpMpASUkt
