After Serwald carried everything out and kidnapped Charlotte to use her for his sadistic fetishes, Charlotte is forced to live in a dark room.
The next morning
Charlotte: Hahhh
Serwald: I am going to class now. Be good.
Charlotte: Hahhh
Her mouth was tied.
Serwald: My goodness, you are pretty
He touched her stomach.
Serwald: Hehehe
Charlotte: Ghhhh
He left the room.
Serwald: Hehehe
Charlotte: Hmmm
Meanwhile
Nacht: Hmmm
Kisa: Charlotte still is not here
Diego: Honestly that girl can really get on your nerves
Mona: Typical Eichenwalde family
Nacht: Stop it Her family was wiped out Of course she is in a bad mood
Mona: Exactly by your family
Kisa: Stop it We have to find a way to calm her down
Then a girl appeared.
A girl with one eye.
Diego: Huh
Nacht: Oh a druid
Diego: Druid
Mona: Half human half monster Usually half orc
One eyed girl: My name is Genilina Ah Have you seen Charlotte Eichenwalde
Diego: Huh
Kisa: But
Genilina: I am in Magiya of Alice just like you She was not in bed and did not eat the breakfast I made for her
Mona: Wait
Diego: That means she is not there either
Kisa: That is not good
Genilina: So um I am worried about her I wanted to ask because I can see she likes spending time with you
Diego: Why do you care
Genilina: I am her roommate We share a room like everyone else
Diego: Oh
She looked worried. She had an innocent light voice, around 156 cm tall. Her single eye was large and in the middle. She wore a black sweater.
Genilina: So it is like this Please forgive me that you have to see a creature like me Hehe I only wanted to ask Do you know Charlotte is the only one who sees me as a human not as a monster She also protected me from classmates who made fun of me She is mean sometimes and likes to show off her stomach and back but she is really a good girl even if she has a somewhat perverse tongue
Diego: Oh
Genilina: But I like her a lot She is like a big sister to me She talks harshly to me too but if only you knew her loneliness and despair You see I have the ability to hear and understand the hearts of others Everyone has a melody A melody that shows how a person feels Oh sorry I talk too much
Kisa: Wait What do you mean What is with Charlotte
Genilina was a bit nervous.
Genilina: Your hearts are also filled with pain and suffering but Charlotte's is different It plays a sad melody A lonely desperate melody Charlotte also hides her illness
Diego: Ugh
Mona: Ugh
Nacht: Hmmm
Kisa: What
Nacht: Illness What kind
Genilina: I do not know exactly but it causes pain in her body and also a lot of drooling and the red eyes and headaches
Nacht: Hmmm
Tina: I think I know the illness
Tina suddenly spoke.
Tina: She has something called Dolores The reason is simple because the body suddenly feels pain in the stomach, the head, and also in intimate areas It probably comes from her family The Eichenwalde family had it at least the mother
Diego: Wait how do you know that and more importantly what are you doing here
Mona: Yeah I was about to ask that
Tina: I know because I am the reason I was the house doctor for the Eichenwalde This is not only an illness it is more like a curse What Charlotte has The curse came from a mistake my family made
Diego: How many curses are there
Tina: In short this curse makes the whole body hurt The pain comes from the curse There is something called an Organ Banshee, a spirit that lives in human organs, and it affects only females A disease and a curse at the same time Even if you break the curse the illness remains, just not life threatening and with less pain
Dolores means pain in Latin. That is why it is named that way, because it hurts a lot. It feels like the body is being attacked from inside. It is a curse but also a disease. Even if the curse disappears, the disease remains. Worse, it can also be passed on to a newborn child, meaning if Charlotte has a daughter the same illness could appear. It affects only women because it can also affect intimate parts, and because some curses and illnesses affect women differently than men. There is a similar curse called Laesio that affects only men. It works similarly but targets the heart. Both are painful. In some ways one can be worse than the other. Laesio does not appear at birth, while Dolores can be inherited more easily, especially if the child is a girl.
Mona: I understand
Diego: I never noticed
Tina: That is because it appears only once every three days
Kisa: Oh no Poor Charlotte
Mona: Never thought I would pity her
Diego: Hmmm
Nacht: But what does that have to do with her disappearance
Genilina: Good question
Tina: I have a suspicion He could be involved Serwald
Mona: Why
Kisa: That is our teacher
Tina: Yes and just like me he is not a good person In fact I think he still wants to destroy what is left of Eichenwalde
Diego: What do they all have against Eichenwalde
Tina: The Eichenwalde were a strong family, but they wanted no power and no wars. They tried to solve things peacefully, and it worked, but other families saw that as weakness. The Eichenwalde were also popular in other kingdoms because they were wealthy and strong. One day the Zephyrs wanted a war against another people, and others wanted to join too, but the Eichenwalde refused. Because they always refused wars, the others wanted them gone. It began with murder of an Eichenwalde member. Even though they were peaceful it escalated, and eventually they fought a war with Britanika, which gave the others an excuse to wipe them out. They were hated and branded as evil. They were driven out, and even common people joined. Women and children were killed without mercy. Charlotte's parents lived with us after they fled, but one day a Monet came, Manfred Monet, and offered us a lot of money and land if we handed the Eichenwalde over. My parents were in huge debt, so they accepted. Because of that, Charlotte's grandparents died, and her parents tried to flee, but it failed. With that money, we became a famous mage family, the Ainsworth
Nacht: I understand So you became rich through betrayal If Charlotte decides to take revenge and kill you all, I will join, you deserve it
Diego: Do you understand how horrible that is
Kisa: You made her grow up without her parents
Mona: I take it back No wonder she is angry and full of distrust
Tina looked sad, and Genilina also looked sad.
Tina: I know we deserve it That is why I accepted what Esteban does to me I took it as punishment I poisoned Charlotte's grandparents, and I placed the curse on her mother when she was pregnant, and then we killed the grandparents a few days after Charlotte was born I understand
Mona: You were probably young
Tina: I was twelve years old But I was gifted in magic
Nacht looked around and sighed.
Nacht: And Serwald
Diego: He is a Monet What does he have to do with it
Mona: Right
Tina: The person who made that offer back then The one who stood at our door was Serwald
Diego: Ugh
Nacht: That is disgusting And you became teachers Unbelievable
Kisa: Do you have any idea how painful that is You took her childhood, her freedom, her parents. A mother's warmth cannot be replaced. Even if she was rescued by kind monsters and fairy tales, those are not the same
Mona: Seriously
Tina: Hmmm
Diego: If Charlotte wants to kill you I will not stop her It is her right
Kisa: You betrayed the family
Tina: I am sorry That is why I let Esteban do those things to me I deserved it
Diego: Okay not like that
Nacht: That is different No woman deserves abuse That is ridiculous
Mona: He is right Also I think that is sick
Kisa: I doubt Charlotte will allow you to keep doing that
Mona: She will kill you No doubt
Tina: I accept that So let me help you anyway Please
Genilina: Um
Kisa: It is okay Do not worry
Diego: Where is Charlotte now
Tina: Serwald's room We have to investigate there
Nacht: Hmm
Diego: He would not keep her there
Nacht: He might Crane go check
Crane: Crane will check
Crane left. About twenty minutes later he returned.
Crane: I saw nothing but I found that there seems to be a secret door May I open it
Diego: You are a crow
Crane: So what I can open it with my beak But I need Nacht's permission
Nacht: Fine Do it but be careful
Just then Serwald entered the room since it was class time, and Crane quickly left.
A few minutes later
Crane: Caw There it is
Crane tried and managed to open it. A hidden library space opened, and Charlotte was there.
Charlotte: Ugh
Crane: There you are
Charlotte: It is you Crane
She was tied up, wearing only a sleep outfit.
Crane: Oh no
Charlotte: How did you do this
Crane: Tina said you might be here because Serwald, like her, was involved in your family's death
Charlotte: So she too
Crane: She regrets it a lot, Charlotte
Charlotte: That is not important now Get me out of here Please
Crane: I cannot But I will tell Nacht, Diego, Kisa, and Mona that you are here
Charlotte: Then hurry I cannot last much longer
Crane: Okay
A few minutes later
During class Nacht waited for Crane's message.
Crane flew behind him.
Crane: Yes
Nacht: And
Crane: She is tied up It looks bad She suffered a lot She seems to have been beaten
Nacht: I understand I will handle the rest Excuse me Mr Serwald May I go to the toilet
Serwald: Class just started, Mr Nacht Von Zephyr
Nacht: I know But I have to
Serwald: Fine You never go during class so go
Nacht stood up and left the classroom.
He went to Serwald's room.
Nacht: Here right
Crane: Yes
Nacht: Wait Something is wrong
He touched it with his hand. His hand got cut and fell off.
Nacht: Hmm
It regenerated.
Nacht: I understand You need a spell An encryption spell
Crane: If I am not mistaken, Mona knows about that
Nacht: Yes We should wait until class is over But tell me exactly how Charlotte is
Crane: She has dark circles under her eyes She looks hungry and exhausted and she wears only a sleep outfit
Nacht: Makes sense She disappeared last night We must wait Is she alone
Crane: Crane did not see anyone else except some captive fairies and animals
Nacht: Hmm
He smelled something.
Nacht: Ugh it smells disgusting What is that Crane check
Crane went and came back.
Crane: Caw That is disgusting
Nacht: What
Crane: There are jars and they contain body parts
Nacht: What
Crane: Not only that, also other body parts and tongues
Nacht: Okay I am getting worried We need a way to bring Mona here Waiting until class ends is dangerous
Mona: That is why I am here
Nacht: Huh
Mona stood behind him.
Nacht: Where did you come from
Mona: I asked to go to the toilet Since you are a boy he would not let Diego go too because only one can go So I decided to go because no girl was going
Nacht: I understand Stupid rules but okay
Mona: How is she
Nacht: You heard it
Mona: The body parts Honestly I am not surprised Serwald is brutally perverse Even worse than Diego
Nacht: Diego would never do that And he does not need to The girls like him a lot
Mona: Really
Nacht: Yes
Mona: We still have to wait, Nacht That is dangerous Also there is a protection spell
Nacht: You can see it, so you can break it
Mona: I can, but it takes time I am sorry for Charlotte but we have to leave her for now We return when class ends and it is break time Serwald always goes to the apothecary and magical shops then We can use that
Nacht: Fine You are right
They returned. Nacht went back first, and two minutes later Mona returned from the girls' bathroom.
Nacht: Sweats You really did need the toilet
Mona: I never said I did not
Serwald: Ms Mona and Mr Nacht No talking please That is an offense to my dignity and rights
Nacht: Huh That way of speaking Thomas
Mona: Sorry
After class they went outside.
Kisa: And
Nacht: Tina was right She was right about Serwald He is a bastard
Crane: Caw We should get Charlotte out fast
Kisa: But how
Nacht: Someone has to watch him, when he goes into the town
Diego: Should I do it
Nacht: Yes But if he goes into the pleasure district that does not mean you should copy him
Diego: Sweats Of course But is it not far from town
Nacht: That was a joke I meant you have to be careful
Mona: Yes We do not know what he would do to you
Diego: Hey I am not a girl He will not do anything
Crane: Caw I am not sure There were bodies of people who were not girls either
Mona: What
Diego: Great There goes my future family plans
Nacht: That is not a big loss You will never get that anyway
Diego: Sweats
Nacht: Alright Let us go
They went. Diego followed Serwald as he walked around the town.
Diego: Hmm Hmm
Then Diego heard a girl's voice. What are you doing here, Diego It was Mefina.
Mefina: Diego
Diego: Mefina You are here What are you doing here
Mefina: Just getting some things I want to buy
Diego: Oh Why
Mefina: Just a few things What are you doing here
Diego: I Uh
Mefina: Why are you following Mr Serwald Did he do something bad
Diego turned, looked at her, and covered her mouth.
Diego: Shhhh
Mefina: Mmm
Diego: I will tell you what is going on but be careful and do not tell anyone Charlotte was kidnapped by Serwald because she is an Eichenwalde and he was one of those who got rid of her family
Mefina: What Really Mr Serwald
Diego: Yes
Mefina: Then she is in danger
Diego: Yes
Mefina: Let me help you
Diego: That is dangerous
Mefina: Please
Diego sighed and nodded.
Diego: Fine But be careful
Mefina: Thanks Charlotte is also like me in the school
Diego: Right But why do you want to help her
Mefina: Hehe She helped me in the exam She had to take it too because we failed the duel exam She made sure Mr Tina kept watch away while we cheated
Diego: Sweats Great
Meanwhile
Mona: There it is
Kisa: Hmm
Nacht: Mhm
Mona: Alright
Mona pulled out her fairy tale, Grimm The Town Musicians of Bremen.
Mona: In fairy tale books there are also spells Magiya is used for that too Protection spells are a problem First there are only a few fairy tales that have counter spells Second they use a lot of magical power Third they are dangerous One mistake and the consequences can be bitter
Nacht: I understand
Kisa: I understand
Mona: Alright Hahhh Protection spell By this I command you Erase the barrier Take my magic power and remove this barrier Teles De Feso Delpero
It broke.
Mona: Clean I did not think the old language of Magiya would work
Nacht: That is a fairy tale language
If you wonder how many magical fairy tale languages exist, there are three. The old one used by ancient tales like Snow White, Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, and the Town Musicians of Bremen. It depends on the spell. You must use the old fairy tale language, also called Fairyspeak. The second is the Germanic language, German, because most fairy tales speak German. The third is the language also called Prussia, Russian.
Mona: Good We can go in
They entered.
Mona: Hmm Does it stink here Like meat Old meat
Kisa: Ghhh
Nacht: Hmm Look
Mona: Huh
Charlotte was chained to the wall in her sleep outfit. Drool ran from her mouth.
Mona: Ugh
Kisa: Charlotte Oh no
They ran to her.
Mona: What is wrong with her
Kisa: Something is wrong
Nacht: Oh no Her illness
Mona: Ugh
Kisa: You mean Dolores
Nacht: Quick Take her away
They removed the chains.
Mona: Damn What kind of sick bastard is this
Kisa: This is disgusting
Charlotte: Ugh
Then Charlotte suddenly screamed in pain.
Charlotte: Uuuuuugh Aaaaaaaaaaargh
She held her head.
Nacht: Ugh
Charlotte: Ghh
She looked up. Blood ran from her eyes, a lot.
Kisa: Ghh
Mona: Ugh
Nacht: What do we do
Ichabod: Nacht Hold her stomach Hold her stomach
Nacht: What
Ichabod: Hold her stomach and chest and you must also close her eyes Quickly
Nacht: Ugh Okay
He did it.
Ichabod: The illness is dangerous, especially when the curse is still there Blood can come from the eyes, ears, nose, and other places
Nacht: How do you know that
Ichabod: Your mother had a good friend who had this illness and curse too And as a spirit and fairy tale I know some things
Nacht: Ugh
Ichabod: Leave her like that
Charlotte: It hurts Ghhh
A few minutes later
Mefina: Hmm
Diego: Hmm Is he coming back
Mefina: I do not know
Serwald opened a portal and went through.
Diego: Damn That is not good Hurry back to the school
Mefina: Okay
They rushed back.
Back to Kisa, Nacht, Charlotte, and Mona
Mona: Huh Do you hear that
Nacht: Ugh
They turned. Serwald was there.
Serwald: Well well who do we have here
Mona: Ghhh
Nacht: Diego what is going on why did he not warn us
Kisa: Oh no
Serwald: As I see, you children found my secret that I have that Eichenwalde girl Charlotte here Fine Then I will use my Magiya to erase you
Serwald was suddenly struck.
Mona: Ugh
Nacht: Huh
Kisa: Miss Tina
Tina: Let the children go right now
Serwald fell, clutching his stomach.
Serwald: Ghh Damn
Tina: That is enough, Serwald We have done enough evil I will not let you use your sick methods on them
Serwald: Damn Ainsworth Without us Monets you would only be ordinary mages
Tina: Yes And we got our fame by betraying our friends, the Eichenwalde
Serwald: Stupid cow
Then Diego and Mefina appeared.
Diego: We are here
Nacht: Just in time Tie him up and put him in another room Diego stay there and watch him
They did it and locked him away.
Nacht: Looks like she is a little better now
Kisa: Poor thing
Mona: Mhm She looks tired
Nacht: Thanks for your help
Tina: Hmm
Kisa: It is so quiet
Mona: Yeah Is Diego okay
Nacht: I will check
He opened the door.
Nacht: Diego Ugh
Diego stood there in his wolf form. On the floor was Serwald's headless body.
