Riyan's POV...
I said, 'Okay, I will be there,' my voice barely above a whisper, as if I was trying to convince myself of the uncertain fate that lay ahead.
As I heard the footsteps fading away from the main door, I knew the maid had left, leaving me to my thoughts. The silence was oppressive, and I felt a shiver run down my spine.
After exiting the bathroom, I began to dress, my hands moving mechanically as I put on a crisp white shirt and black pants. I longed to wear something more comfortable, but the limited wardrobe of my host, Riyan, offered little choice. The clothes felt restrictive, like a second skin, but I had no option but to make do.
As I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, I couldn't help but think how feminine I looked, thanks to my short, stylishly cut hair. I quickly tied it back in a ponytail, trying to appear more masculine. The reflection staring back at me was a stranger, a fusion of Riyan's features and my own.
With a deep breath, I exited the room, my footsteps echoing through the opulent hallway. The luxurious surroundings of the mansion still took my breath away, even after experiencing Riyan's memories. The grandeur was overwhelming, a testament to the wealth and power of the Descartes family.
As I approached the dining hall, my mind began to wander, thinking about how to convince my new family of my plans to become a singer and model. The thought sent a thrill of excitement through me, mixed with a dash of fear. What if they rejected me?
Lost in my thoughts, I didn't notice the warm embrace that enveloped me until I heard a sweet, feminine voice whispering in my ear. 'Good morning, Yan!' The voice was like music, gentle and soothing.
I turned to face the speaker, and my eyes widened as I took in the beauty of Livia Descartes, Riyan's twin elder sister. Her black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, and her blue eyes sparkled like sapphires. I recognized her instantly, the villainess of the novel 'Saint's Odessy.' Her obsession with Riyan had driven her to madness, and I knew I had to tread carefully around her.
I gently extricated myself from her embrace, and her face fell, a fleeting expression of sadness crossing her features. But she quickly recovered, her smile returning like the sun breaking through the clouds.
'Good morning, Sis,' I replied, trying to sound casual, while my heart raced with excitement. I couldn't help but check her status, my curiosity getting the better of me.

The information flashed before my eyes, and I was shocked. Her rank was D+, a remarkable feat, even by genius standards. As expected from the bloodline of the Asura clan.

Her obsession was deep, and I knew I had to be careful not to trigger her darker impulses. I pushed the thought aside, focusing on the present.
'What are you thinking about?' Her voice brought me back to reality, and I forced a smile.
'Nothing!' I lied, trying to sound nonchalant.
'We should get going for breakfast, or we'll be late,' I said, trying to change the subject.
She wrapped her arm around my shoulder, and I felt a shiver run down my spine. 'Let's get going!' she exclaimed, her cheerful tone a stark contrast to the darkness lurking beneath.
As we approached the big door, I felt my nerves begin to fray. What lay beyond? Would I be able to convince my new family of my plans?
Taking a deep breath, I pushed open the door, and we entered the dining hall. The first thing that caught my attention was the grand dining table, and the two beautiful women sitting there.
One of them sat in the main chair, a mature, older version of Livia. Her black hair and blue eyes were identical to Livia's, but her features were more refined, more beautiful. I recognized her as Riya Descartes, my mother, a pure-blooded Ausra, and the current head of the Descartes family. She was one of the main villains of the novel, and I knew I had to tread carefully around her.
The other woman had greenish-white hair and green eyes, a stunning beauty. She gazed at me with hostility, and as if I owed her thousands of dollars. I recognized her as Syra Descartes, a hybrid between human and elf, the so-called main heroine of the novel, and my adopted sister.
I checked their status, my heart racing with excitement.

Seeing my mother's status, my body went numb. What the freaking stats are these?! She's practically invincible in this world...!!! I roared out in my mind, my thoughts reeling with the implications.
But even she meets her end at the hands of that bastard Alex, who kills both Riyan and Livia. The thought sent a chill down my spine.
'Good morning, Yan and Liv...' A sweet, motherly voice came, and I felt a lump form in my throat. I was in for the fight of my life, and I knew it.
