In the girls’ dormitory, precisely in front of Alexa’s room,
Odessa pushed open the door of the hated girl’s room but to no avail. The piercing cold was felt there, but she did not pay attention to it. Because she was annoyed, her right foot tried to kick the door, but to no avail; that strange situation was like someone was protecting the room so it could not be entered by anyone other than the legal owner. No matter how many times that girl tried, there was still no change, which made Odessa’s heart even more hateful and angry.
The movements made by the spiteful girl stopped. Odessa seemed to give up due to exhaustion. Sweat was pouring all over her body, especially as she still had to hold the torch specially prepared for the bedroom of the messenger of Goddess Magia.
“Fuck! If this damn door can’t be opened, it is better to just burn it from here! I do not want Alexa to stay longer because her place is not in an orphanage!” Odessa said hatefully.
Meanwhile, Alexa was seen walking as fast as she could because she could not run. A young lady with chestnut brown hair feared that the items she was carrying would fall. Samuel and Aiden saw the behaviour of the opposite sex. Still, they could not greet the first daughter of the couple, Tristian Varden Writh and Lavena Isolda Keira.
“Since Aileen and Adaline left here, Alexa has been avoiding us,” Samuel said to his roommate.
“I know. I am confused too, Sam.” That was all Aiden could say. The two young girl could only stare at the girl’s back until she disappeared from sight.
Alexa did not seem to care about the cynical looks of the people there. She could not think straight anymore because the bad feeling had not gone away.
O Lord Brazakh, what will happen? Why does this premonition keep coming? I hope I am still in time because who else would do evil except Odessa? Why is all this happening to me? Alexa thought and felt sad was inevitable.

In front of the door to Alexa’s room on the fourth floor,
“If this door can’t be opened, then it is better just to burn it. I do not have to wait any longer. I do not want Alexa to live here! That kind of witch does not belong here but in the forbidden forest!” Odessa growled.
The torch held by Odessa was deliberately stuck to the door so that the fire that was there started to stick there and started to spread. Just at that moment, along came Alexa. The hazel-eyed girl felt as if she was burning with anger because she saw the actions of the girl who had constantly bullied her.
The blonde-haired young woman saw Alexa coming but laughed out loud and did not feel scared. “Hey, witch! You do not have a room anymore because I burned it. This is the consequence if you dare to hurt my beautiful face! Who wants to share a room with you?” Odessa taunted.
Alexa looked at the girl, who had a scar on her cheek, with burning resentment. A young lady, who came from a noble family stepped forward as soon as possible with a burning gaze towards her opponent. Odessa did not expect the girl who was constantly bullied to be so brave. There was no other way because the door at the back had been engulfed in fire.
“You bastard girl! How dare you burn down my room, even though I was never mean to you. Brantzthie!” [1] she said, full of hatred.
Suddenly, the fire appeared all over Odessa’s body, making the virgin panic and afraid. She spontaneously threw the torch onto the floor, because she wanted to save herself.
“Argh! Argh! Help me!” shouted Odessa, the cunning girl.
Odessa tried to walk, but the fire burned her slender body completely. A cruel smile appeared on Alexa’s lips because she was able to avenge her heartache for the crimes of the girl who always hurt her feelings on purpose.
A scream could be heard everywhere. Everyone came to the place believed to be the source of the sound, including Madame Aufrodine and Loiston. What a surprise when they saw Odessa burning and soon turning to ashes.
For a moment, the atmosphere became silent. Everyone stared at Alexa, who looked different: a pair of shining hazel eyes, as if satisfied with killing the opponent who had set the room on fire, and then stared at the fire, which was slowly extinguishing itself. The air there became cold, making the hair on the back of their necks bristle like they were in another world.
“What have you done to Odessa? You killed that girl!” shouted Madame Aufrodine, pointing a finger at the young girl.
A scary grin appeared on Alexa’s face. The girl with a sharp nose was not afraid. Still, she was delighted because she had succeeded in eliminating the person continuously hurting her for a long time.
“Odessa came alone without being invited and was already carrying a torch. When she just arrived here, as soon as possible, she set fire to my bedroom door. I did not reach out to her, and it was obvious. Why are you accusing me of murder, Madame Aufrodine?” Alexa argued with a scary aura.
“Still, she is dead! This situation must be happened because of the black magick! I do not want to accept a murderer and a witch in this place!” The principal began to push the other person away because fear was mixed with anger.
Madame Aufrodine panicked because she had seen a frightening sight, so she did not want the incident to happen twice. Odessa’s four friends, Frazto, Shul, Drutz, and Drena, were also there. They seemed unable to say anything. Everyone present was horrified because they had not expected such a shocking event that had never happened before.
You do not have to care about Madame Aufodine’s words. I will help so that no one else dares to disturb me. Starting today, you will leave this place and will go to a very different place, where they are all special people just like you, a voice whispered in the ear of the girl accused of murder.
A young lady, who had a height of one hundred and seventy centimetres tall, was just silent, even though she did not understand what to say in her heart. Alexa observed the people there one by one. No one dared to return the gaze. They all avoided it except for Madame Aufrodine and Madame Loiston.
Before replying, a three-faced woman appeared, wearing a crown on her head, looking at the gathered people. They were completely unaware of the presence of the goddess because the atmosphere was so tense.
The goddess directed her hands towards Alexa’s body, including her lips so that she could reply to Madame Aufrodine’s insulting words.
I will not let you do evil again to the people I choose. The time has come; Alexa must immediately be trained under Brazam Gaelith to fulfil what is in the ancient curse and legendary prophecy. Blood debt must be paid with life! Goddess Magia was determined, and nothing could stop her.
“Madame, you always defend the wrong person, Odessa. You have always known about everything at the orphanage, but what happened? Everything was just kept quiet as if it was allowed to happen! I swear, everyone who conspires to help the crimes committed by them will die horribly!” Alexa cursed, pointing at the four children who constantly bullied her.
“How dare you curse the innocent! You witch!” shouted Madame Loiston. In fact, the deputy head at the Ztatzav Orphanage only pretended to be brave because she did not want to be labelled a coward.
Alexa stared intently at the source of the sound, which scared the interlocutor because there was a magical element there. The mystical atmosphere already felt in the air became even more potent. A girl known to be gentle and kind did not seem like herself anymore. Instead, she had been possessed by something.
“I curse you, Aufrodine and Loiston, for daring to insult my messenger. In the future, trash people like you will die horribly at the hands of the people you despise. Apretzikh artionizh, aretihutnh madegizkah uluntazh fatzionteh alokrezith, orethantz De Magia gratiutnhz fradizianth!” [2] said Alexa sharply.
Fear spread even more in the two women who did not like Alexa from the start. They did not want the girl to stay any longer because she had been cursed in public, which was tantamount to insulting their authority.
“Go away from here!” shouted Madame Aufrodine.
The twelve-year-old girl raised her right hand and then pointed her index finger at the target. “Shinutzh!” [3] she said sharply.
After saying this, the woman who always supported the crimes of Odessa and her friends was no longer able to say a word. The tense atmosphere was palpable. Alexa walked away from there in less than a minute and did not care about anyone.
