Chapitre 107: Flying Through the Night

The name she'd given me had left a bad taste in my mouth. In fact, I felt so annoyed at it that as soon as I left the city and moved outside the guard's view, I looked for something to kill.

'Matriarch's Champion', as if she were my owner or something.

"Hey." Asher's voice snapped me away from my thoughts. I turned around to see him and Lucius coming towards me. "What's wrong?" He asked, noticing my irritated expression. I shook my head.

"Nothing worth worrying about. Let's go." As my wings appeared through a veil of black-crimson mist, Lucius' eyes widened. He knew about my wings, of course, but it was the first time he was seeing them. His reaction put a smile on my lips for a fraction of a second.

"I'll give us flight as well." Asher said with a sigh. Magic gathered in his hands and enveloped the two of them. As they shot to the sky, I leapt right up after them. I could hear Lucius's shriek as we rose above the trees.
