(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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU35X6Zve9E
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYM8PJmVWe
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!9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCm4kcWQhk
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTOQYHaDU0
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Rx9zK84e2
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQ8XoqLIjm
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPG39euVJVJ
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kIaXKRjIX
But I found out my sister had already been sold.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOkRgUbtAH
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym1fvhjqxn
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIWQ0OLIOX
They’d used her.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8WVokt22n
I lost control and destroyed everything—truly everything. It took the arrival of other Nobles to finally restrain me.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh3vj7JUEO
When I met the king, I had two choices: fight for him... or die by his hand.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3TFBzoENV
I chose to die.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLpGM4i2Db
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V4TgjAtW3
I escaped—hoping to finally be free. I didn’t intend to come here to kill. No. I just wanted peace.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBE36bWmv7M
And what did I get?9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpucUVdZOc
Exactly—trapped again. Forced to fight. Again.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljkpRDv4Eo
It never ends.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHo6s3d9xZ
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTldcPUjLmJ
Glacia, I understand you better now.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4lB3YtIKo
We don’t have much time. You said it yourself.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtxMJabnNL
So… will you fight one last time? Not for someone. But with someone?9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDy1VraXtQ
We are bound by soul.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5EYrgcq2j
You know the state of my body—I don’t have long. And I can feel our souls slowly merging.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDSmJmZDGZ
I think that’s their plan. They need your soul. So they’re fusing ours together so you can’t escape.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DMB1JO9xY
But there’s still a chance. If we get out of here—if we defeat the enemy—we can force Temphael to undo it.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0wfDahc6b
Then you’ll be free.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pces62cV9
Of me.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEGmRuqf8m
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSBiMrP3v3
"Then let’s do it. I’ll show them why they call me the Ice Queen!"9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6XtzqAAse
