A sudden noise woke Venus. The girl struggled to open her eyes and flicker at the clock. Eight o'clock at night.

Venus complained and cursed in her heart as she hugged back her bolster pillow. A second later she sat shocked when the door to her room was banged from outside.

“VENUS!”

Venus complained again. That's her father's voice. Deep and big. The girl stumbled toward the door to open it.

“What are you doing?!” the father snapped when he saw Venus.

Venus rubbed her eyes while trying to straighten her hair using her hands. The girl scowled resentfully at the sturdy and fierce figure in front of her.

“What the heck is that, Dad?” Venus grumbled. “Why the hell wake me up so late at night?”

“Tidy up yourself, change your clothes and sandals, then go to my room.”

Her father's flat expression disturbed Venus. Will she be punished for yelling at Sella? However, why should her appearance be so neat?

“Wh—”

“Now!”

The man then left Venus, who was still gaping because her words were interrupted. Venus snorted and slammed the door of her room in annoyance.

Ten minutes later Venus was in her father's room. She deliberately wore black jeans and black boots, and a plain shirt wrapped in a black leather jacket. Don't forget she wears makeup, which, although natural, is still called makeup. The girl was more like an official bodyguard with a small body. Actually, Venus just wants to upset the father. Because, who the hell is going to change clothes as fancy as it is just to chat with parents at home?

Venus glanced at Sella who was holding her arms while sitting on the edge of the bed, her eyes piercing Venus's eyes. Meanwhile, Venus's father stood next to another door that Venus had just realized. That was definitely not the bathroom door or the door leading to the balcony.

“Do you have a secret room?” Venus asked in surprise.

“No,” her father answered, flatly.

Venus looked at her father fixedly. The man wasn't bothered at all by the makeup of Venus. Venus isn't annoyed, just feels useless.

“So?” This time it was Venus who said in a flat tone. “What does all this mean?”

Venus's father opened the door beside him with a soft jerk. Venus could see nothing in the room. Only darkness.

“It's time you found out about this,” said Venus's father, his tone remained as flat as a board. “Come in.”

Venus looked at her stepmother and biological father very suspiciously.

“What room is that?” Venus asked.

“Come in!” Sella barked.

Venus looked at her stepmother with hatred. She really doesn't care if she's gone too far. “I'm not asking you, Witch. Thanks.”

“Shut up!” Venus's father snapped so loudly, while Sella looked angry.

“You shut up!” shouted Venus, feeling unbearable. “What kind of father are you?! You let this woman replace my mother's role in an evil version! You never even care about your own child, do you?”

“I never and never will,” hissed Venus's father coldly. “And, this is the last time you can call me father. I am not your father!”

Venus's face was like slapped by emptiness. She didn't understand the intention of the man, but at the same time understood. The girl struggled with words, whatever. However, what was heard was only the beating of the heart that was pounding in her ears.

Venus walked slowly toward the man. Her legs felt so shaky. She paid close attention to the expression of the person she had always regarded as her father. Clearly he had never joked with Venus before.

“What do you mean?” Finally Venus was able to say.

“I told you, don't call me father again! I am not your father!” Bima scolded. His hand suddenly gripped Venus's arm strongly, while his other hand pointed to the darkness. “Your father is in there. I have kept my promise to him, and now I have the right to live in peace. Go wherever you are, because I don't want to see you any longer!”

Bima suddenly pushed Venus's body through the door. Venus didn't understand what he meant until she fell into the dark room. It was like falling into nothingness, with the heart left somewhere. The last thing that Venus witnessed was the relief that shone so clearly on the face of the pusher.

Venus's heart had never felt this painful before.

    It was as if Venus had just dreamed of her dueling with a giant grasshopper, when a very high-pitched alarm yelled at her, until she awoke and sat up suddenly. Because of that, her eyes became somewhat dizzy. Venus groaned and lay down again for a few seconds. She grabbed the tablet on the nightstand. It was still 6:00 in the morning, and there was a message in the device with a loud clink once. The girl opened the message with her arms still hugging. The message contains a timetable for new students in grade one. Venus flickers to read today's schedule.Venus complained. She tried to sleep again, but a minute later the alarm sounded again in her ears."Oh, God!”She sat and stared at the ceiling of her room, hoping to find the technological spy who was watching her. While rubbing her eyes, Venus tried to ask the device about it. She did not expect that thing immediately answered in a voice like a child. As a result, she was shocked to death and threw the

    Venus remembers when she came down from the podium, after Mrs. Mana announced trembling that she was a Bizura, everything in the large room became very quiet. The views of the other students really made the girl shiver. They looked at her with eyes as if she were a grim reaper in the form of a giant scorpion. There is a great deal of fear and anxiety in their gaze, but what makes Venus most afraid is a look of hatred that is not clearly stated by them. The hatred is covered by fear, but you can feel it clearly in the air.Venus walked with the steps she tried to keep calm. However, the air seemed to force her to stop and hide. The gazes of hundreds of students and dozens of krona in the room sank into her back and entire body. A frightening cold spread to her bones. It seemed years later, before finally Venus arrived at the table where her new friends watched with their body frozen.“Lira Blezana.”Mrs. Mana's voice was faint in Venus's flushed ears.

    Mrs. Mana scans her tablet with concentration, and then starts to call out the names of the new kids randomly. The first child is called Kirka Sorawa. The girl was small and thin, with a typical freckled face. She walked stumbling and almost tripped on the podium. Though Venus estimates that the height of the podium wasn't until a span. Venus was so tense, that even her scalp felt itchy. Really annoying.“Stand in the center, darling,” said Mrs. Mana pretentiously sweet.Kirka nervously complied. Venus couldn't see clearly what Mrs. Mana was doing, other than that she had only dotted the screen of her tablet. However, suddenly from under the podium came a soft whirring sound, surprising Kirka. Venus's neck was protruding like a giraffe, and she even had to stand because of an un-strategic seat.From the edge of the podium, at least nine kinds of strange objects and a crow looked around fearlessly. The nine objects that seemed to surround Kirka were t

    At first no one noticed or even glanced at Venus and the baby boy, but as the other children became aware of their purpose, whispers began to creep in annoyance. The baby boy's face turned pink, but it seemed that it actually made him increase his confidence. He walked with an arrogant look while slipping a hand into his pants pocket, while Venus just rolled her eyes inexorably.Venus walked while looking back at the children who mostly came from the seniors. She passed a small girl who looked at her with a frowned worry. Like Venus will die.Suddenly, the girl grabbed Venus's arm and whispered loudly, “They are dangerous! Better you and your friends find another seat!”Venus made a shocked expression. Too bad, she focused wrong on that girl's zit.“Really? If so, pray for our safety, okay?” The view of Venus switches to the mouth of another stove. “Well, stop gossiping as if we were going to be killed instead of joining thos

    Venus thought they would also be delivered into the building after Meres opened the door. However, it turns out there is someone who has been waiting behind the door to greet, or rather, trying to intimidate them. That person is a middle-aged man with a big and muscular body. His gaze was so cold with his lips always frowning. In Venus's eyes, Meres seemed even friendlier than this person.“Is it over?” The man asked Meres in a deep voice.Meres just nodded, then he left with Lan without saying anything. And, boldly, Venus disturbed the scary man in all-white clothes in front of her. Of course with a somewhat scared feeling.“Who are you?” Venus's voice was small, but she didn't care.The man looked at her, instantly emitting frightening cold. This is bad, Venus will be swallowed whole!“Rokuga.”Venus let out a sigh of relief without being obvious.“Come on,” Rokuga said as he walked aw

    A few minutes later they arrived in front of the open black gate. The door is too small compared to the wall, but also larger than the gate in general. In front of the door stood a short guy with a face like a baby.“Hey, where is the Portal Keeper who is supposed to drop you off?” Lan asked worriedly.The boy slipped his hand in his pants pocket.“His friend who was guarding the portal was rather difficult, so he told me to wait here and join other guards if anyone passed,” the boy explained with reddish ears.“Basic irresponsible people,” snorted Meres annoyed. “How can he play for safekeeping?”Lan struck Meres's arm slowly.“Sometimes we also do the same thing, right?” she said laughing. “For example, when I have to go to the toilet because it's really urgent?”Lan winked at Meres. It was the turn of the fierce man whose reddened ears.“Where you
