Summoning of the Villainous Heroine

Chương 1: Prologue

"You weren't listening to me, were you? In that case, I'll just take over everything from now on," Venus's spine-chilling voice, enraged and furious, rings in Eli's ears.

Darkness swept over the place once more.

Everything faded out of sight, leaving only her and Hal in the vast empty space. This time, her uneasiness doubled since Hal was now unwillingly involved. She regretted not breaking free from his arms as soon as possible.

She was naïve for not seeing this coming. She hated herself for dragging him in this mess after everything he did for her.

Above all, she felt like strangling Venus at this very second.

Her train of thoughts that was just about to get murderous was interrupted by the mirrors appearing again, but their once polished surfaces are now tainted with red blemishes that seem to resemble blood. Loud cracking noises filled the place as the glasses fractured one by one.

Veering lines formed on the fragile planes and caused their reflections to appear distorted. Not too long, the mirrors shattered into pieces, an explosive sound of piercing crackles reverberating all around them.

Eli's heart dropped at the sight of a flurry of deadly shards of glasses coming their way. She might've imagined hearing the trumpets of heaven when they're about to rain over them like arrows in a battlefield.

Closing her eyes shut, she readied herself to be impaled and feel the gush of pain, but they never came.

All she felt was the cold ground beneath her.

Confounded, she immediately opened her eyes, but only to see an astonishing sight.
