(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.185Please respect copyright.PENANAroXVTLoPHC
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANAykFxlgVGnF
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!185Please respect copyright.PENANAlO6XBUjfrh
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANAIz33SNZPM5
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZfL2K70TG
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANAKVU4E966Ac
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANAHshFgulJhC
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANAp4lTUheTma
But I found out my sister had already been sold.185Please respect copyright.PENANAtYgTGLtIYp
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANAbdYuOVQKt6
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANA43CCqjDSEp
They’d used her.185Please respect copyright.PENANAyQLHpNzfir
I lost control and destroyed everything—truly everything. It took the arrival of other Nobles to finally restrain me.185Please respect copyright.PENANA6lMfqpiD1m
When I met the king, I had two choices: fight for him... or die by his hand.185Please respect copyright.PENANA5AQzcwyXA1
I chose to die.185Please respect copyright.PENANAipPMVAnnL5
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANAhbILUWZE4S
I escaped—hoping to finally be free. I didn’t intend to come here to kill. No. I just wanted peace.185Please respect copyright.PENANADwPJoavltC
And what did I get?185Please respect copyright.PENANADYABSdkkOJ
Exactly—trapped again. Forced to fight. Again.185Please respect copyright.PENANAzYP9YWS0YM
It never ends.185Please respect copyright.PENANAQYGvXFCmUD
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANASIkohuxDDi
Glacia, I understand you better now.185Please respect copyright.PENANAhsezgfJhDR
We don’t have much time. You said it yourself.185Please respect copyright.PENANAvSuNbiBy4d
So… will you fight one last time? Not for someone. But with someone?185Please respect copyright.PENANAV4vvDUigql
We are bound by soul.185Please respect copyright.PENANArVfgRdh5JB
You know the state of my body—I don’t have long. And I can feel our souls slowly merging.185Please respect copyright.PENANA0Qyq7yifBT
I think that’s their plan. They need your soul. So they’re fusing ours together so you can’t escape.185Please respect copyright.PENANAz3RXrI1i3R
But there’s still a chance. If we get out of here—if we defeat the enemy—we can force Temphael to undo it.185Please respect copyright.PENANAuGXvjHiFlH
Then you’ll be free.185Please respect copyright.PENANA4vlTZ8TdKw
Of me.185Please respect copyright.PENANAvxu1r6bY4V
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.185Please respect copyright.PENANA3VH8j4V0rR
"Then let’s do it. I’ll show them why they call me the Ice Queen!"185Please respect copyright.PENANA7mBBXEYYdc
