The Devil’s Mercy
[Scene: The Crypt – The air is suffocating, thick with Lucien’s rage. Shadows twist and writhe, wrapping around the necromancer’s throat, squeezing the life out of them.]
???
[Choking, struggling against the darkness] You… think you… control fate?
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Voice like ice] I don’t need to control it. I only need to destroy those who stand in my way.
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Panting, regaining her strength] Lucien.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Eyes flicking toward her] Stay back.
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Firmly] You’re killing them too quickly.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Smirking] And here I thought you wanted them dead.
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Coldly] I want answers first.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Mocking] Look at you, little villainess. Have I finally turned you cruel?
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Narrowing her eyes] Don’t flatter yourself.
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[She steps forward, ignoring the way Lucien’s magic crackles in the air like a beast ready to devour everything.]
[Scene Change: The Crypt – The necromancer coughs, gasping as the shadows loosen just enough for them to speak.]
???
Necromancer: [Raspy, weak] You… don’t belong here.
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Coldly] And yet, here I am.
???
Necromancer: [Smirking through the pain] For now.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Voice like a blade] Speak in riddles again, and I’ll tear you apart slowly.
???
Necromancer: [Breathless chuckle] You think you love her. But that love will ruin you.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Mocking] Oh? And what a tragedy that would be.
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Sharply] What do you mean?
???
Necromancer: [Eyes flickering toward her] The story… You weren’t meant to be his.
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Tensing] You mean the original novel.
???
Necromancer: [Softly] The world will correct itself. It always does.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Smirking darkly] Then let’s see if it can do so without you.
[Shadows tighten again, and the necromancer gasps, body trembling violently.]
[Scene Change: Celestia’s Perspective – She watches as Lucien’s magic slowly crushes the necromancer, and something unsettles her.]
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
(thoughts): He’s enjoying this too much…
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Firmly] That’s enough, Lucien.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Without looking at her] No.
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Warning] If you kill them now, we may never know who else is involved.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Amused] And?
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Lowly] And I won’t let you become more of a monster than you already are.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[For the first time, Lucien’s grip falters. He slowly turns to her, golden eyes glinting with something unreadable.]
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Softly] Are you afraid of me, Celestia?
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Holding his gaze] Should I be?
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Chuckling darkly] Always.
[Despite his words, the shadows slither away, releasing the necromancer. They collapse to the ground, coughing violently.]
???
Necromancer: [Weakly] You… made a mistake…
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Smirking, tilting his head] Did I?
???
Necromancer: [Smiling faintly] The curse has already begun
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Heart skipping a beat] What curse? 💔
???
Necromancer: [Looking straight at Lucien] The moment he truly falls for you… he will be the one who destroys you
[Scene Change: Silence falls, cold and heavy. Celestia feels the weight of those words settle deep inside her bones.]
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Softly] …Lies.
???
Necromancer: [Smirking] Then prove me wrong.
[Lucien watches Celestia’s reaction, his expression unreadable. Then, without another word, he lifts a hand—and shadows swallow the necromancer whole.]
Anise(Maid)
[Gasping from behind Celestia] M-My Lady…
Celestia Vaelmolt (FL)
[Tensely] It doesn’t matter. They were just trying to manipulate us.
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Smirking faintly] Were they?
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[He steps closer, voice dropping to a whisper only she can hear.]
King Lucian Vaelmolt (Ml)
[Amused, but dangerous] Tell me, Celestia… are you afraid now?
Celestia don't realise that she start falling for the lucian.
what will happen when she realise.
