Chapter 183- Meeting with Ivy

Dave went near her and he was mesmerized by her beauty and as a good man, he must appreciate her beauty. He believes that beauty is useless in the world if there are no men who would appreciate and admire them.

"I'm only doing this to contribute to society"

Dave murmured and convinced himself that he is righteous. Dave scanned her whole body using his <Ancestral Eye> but he was stunned by what he saw in her heart. He saw a chain was placed in her heart and he was confused about it so he asked the system.

[Answering the host, there is a curse in her heart that puts her in eternal sleep and she can only be awoken after someone kissed her]

[Note: It was only temporary and she would be put back to sleep again and the only way to remove the curse is to have consummate]

[Note: Only Immortal can put this kind of curse and a strong one so be careful because the caster would notice it after it was removed or dispelled]

Dave was stunned and he now understands why she had a chain in her heart. He realized that she was forced to be the bride of the next clan leader even though she didn't want it and the only way to control her is to put a curse on her heart. The next clan leader can use this as an advantage to conquer her body and Ivy didn't have a choice but to accept her fate. Maybe they wanted to use her bloodline to strengthen the clan.

Dave can use this time to take advantage of her but he was a good man so he must become a good Samaritan and save all the women who need help. He put his hands on her forehead and activated <Dream> to infiltrate her dreams and talk to her.

......

In an open field where the grass is waving because of the winds and the animals can be seen anywhere. The flowers are blooming and anyone who is near here can feel calm and peaceful because of the ambiance and the view. The place is beautiful and there is a huge tree in the middle. There is a beautiful woman sitting beside it while looking at the blue sky. Her shining brown eyes are full of sadness and loneliness and it looks like she was about to tear up.

"Why is this happening to me? I don't want to marry anyone I don't love but I cannot do anything because I am powerless"

She sighs and she doesn't know if there is really hope that she can escape this place. She didn't care about the clan for now because she was only an orphan since she was a child but the clan leader treated her the best and gave her a beautiful life that anyone dreamed about. This is the reason why she is treating Harrold better to pay for what they did to her.

She didn't know where she came from so she wanted to travel the world and look for clues but she can feel that she was guarded every day. She didn't know where they were but her instinct told her that many eyes were looking at her in her every move. Her instinct was right because when she was about to escape because of the chaos, an old woman suddenly appeared behind her and captured her. She wanted her to be the bride of the next clan leader because she said that she had a bloodline that can make the clan power elevate to the next level but she didn't want it so the old woman used a curse to control her.

She was powerless in front of the old woman and she successfully put a curse on her heart. Even though this place is like a paradise, she knew that it was all fake and she felt that she was here for a long time. She cried and cried to release her frustration and was even near giving up.

"Is this my destiny?"historical

She murmured but she suddenly hears a voice behind her back.

"Giving up already?"

Ivy looked behind her and saw a handsome man with long red hair and shining blue eyes sitting in the grass. He looks like a celestial that is living in the mortal world and he was the most handsome man she saw in her entire life. She cannot help but be in a daze and her heart is beating faster. She immediately calms herself and says,

"Are you also an Illusion? That old woman thinks that she can fool me by showing a handsome man in my dream huh"

Dave was stunned by what she said but he only smiled at her and replied, "Hey I am not an Illusion, I am here to save you from here, but I think you are already giving up"

Ivy was stunned and replied, "You cannot fool me hmppp"

Dave shakes his head and smirks at her and replies, "How about this, close your eyes and I will let you believe that I am not lying to you"

Ivy hesitated for a moment, but she felt that she would not lose anything, so she nodded and closed her eyes. Dave smiled and went near her in an instant and kissed her lips. Ivy was stunned and didn't expect he would kiss her. It was her first time kissing a man like this and she didn't know what to do. She wanted to push him away, but she suddenly felt the surroundings had changed and suddenly opened her eyes and saw a ceiling.

She was stunned and immediately sat up and checked her body. She saw that she was completely fine so she sighs and she now realized that she had already awakened from sleep. She was happy but she remembers that a handsome man kissed her and then she suddenly became awake.
