I woke up, parched and in need of water. I turned my head and saw Thalia's troubled expression. Perhaps she was having the sa nightmare from the novel about her brother, Alexios.
It seed like an unfortunate fate shared by all characters in novels, including Thalia herself.
Her brother, I thought, recalling how he was portrayed as the smartest character in the entire novel. At least until "That Woman" appeared, but that's a tale for another ti.
When it ca to Thalia's brother, his intelligence seed to diminish when he was with her. That was part of what led to his demise, or at least that's what I gathered.
From the beginning, he wasn't even from this world. He hailed from the Saint realm, which made calling him a "fallen angel" quite fitting.
He reincarnated into a human and was then thrown into the demon realm, where he beca the right-hand man of Lady Amrantha Tenebri Noctilucis, the Demoness Queen and Lily's mother.
I sighed, knowing that I had so ans of communication using Lily. If only she'd listen. The first thing that demon would do upon discovering my connection with Lily would be to wage war against the human realm.
If she didn't listen to reason, she'd vaporize . After all, she was the Demon Queen, and she commanded 1.7 billion demons. Just her army alone could flatten both the Saint realm and the human realm.
Yet, the Saint realm had its own guardians, and the human realm had its seven beings. Unfortunately, they were all bound by restrictions, making them unable to do much. The sa applied to the Saint realm.
The Demoness lady didn't attack because she understood that cornering her opponents would lead to a devastating battle, one that would obliterate all three realms. That was the last thing anyone wanted.
My head throbbed with these complicated thoughts. Knowing everything had its downsides, and right now, it was giving a splitting headache.
So, I tried to focus on where I was now – Thalia's room. Her brother, that is...
"Brother... haaa... haaa,"
I heard her voice, and I decided to pretend to be asleep so she wouldn't beco agitated.
But as she touched my cheek and said those words, an undeniable feeling washed over . Those whispered words reverberated in my mind, and only one thought occupied my thoughts: 'This ti I am really screwed.'
