Her Weak Body
Stefan Donovan is the son of Daniel Donovan. A fine gentleman who is currently off training in the mountains. Stefan is on the mountain with his master sitting on his knees.
His current teacher, an elder monk, is angry at his attitude and refuses to teach him.
"Today, I shall end my training". He tells his master.
"You have not even finished your training, how dare you decide to end the training without my permission?"
"You asked me to expand my knowledge, so I read and memorized hundreds of spell books. You asked me to train my mind, so I patiently sharpened hundreds of swords. However, you never taught me any kinds of spells. The only lessons I have learnt here is that you have no intentions to teach me spells at all, now that I have learnt a big lesson I'd love to end it and leave."
"The leader of Pandora asked me to keep you here for three years" Stefan wasn't ready to listen to what the monk had to say, he wasn't the type that kept to rules.
"I know you're building a sanctuary with the money paid to you in advance. I will not ask for a refund, so I hope it is successfully built." He stood up to leave.
"Where are you going, I didn't say you could leave" The monk was furious at Stefan and screamed at the top of his voice.
"Did this look like I was asking for your permission?"
Stefan isn’t deterred and definitely claims he’s going to find someone else to teach him instead.
"Cressida are you okay?". Cressida, who was asleep, suddenly wakes up after hitting her head on a box close to where she was sleeping in the moving boat. It turns out Elena's soul was actually transferred into a blind girl called Cressida, who's currently receiving safe passage out of the area to another part of the town. Elena in Cressida's body sat up fondling her fingers and touched the bandage wrapped around her eyes, there and then she remembered throwing her magic crystal into a bucket of water while invoking the spirit of the waters and amidst the invocation she fall into a body of water and instead of the bar girl it was Cressida the blind girl with the bandage over her eyes she saw in the water.
" Why did I have to enter a body like this one?"
Flashback to Cressida's life she often gets kicked off the road because she couldn't see.
"I am sure she was blind". The new body who is now Cressida slowly unveils the bandage from her eyes.
" But why is it that I can see now?" She said to herself. "Is it because I'm in a different soul? She didn't even have a blue mark showing I entered her body, this is so unusual."
"Try and bear with the motion sickness, we are almost there, Cressida." One of the men sailing the boat told her.
"Cressida?" Elena asked herself after hearing the name of the blind girl.
"She's the blind girl from the countryside who got sold off to the fortress." She suddenly remembered who Cressida was. The entire time Cressida was having an internal monologue conversation.
Miyoung got up on her feet and attempted to leave.
"Sit down, you will fall," one of the sailors told her.
Feistily she said'' thanks for the journey, I would be leaving now.
Unknown to the sailors Cressida jumped with her two hands on the deck of the wooden bridge but couldn't claim further she doesn’t seem to be blind but Elena in Cressida's body has also lost her powers as well.
Cressida screamed for help when she couldn't jump further up the bridge. She fell into the water when she couldn't hold on again, there she knew she had lost her strength while transforming.
"Why were you hanging from there when you cannot even see? "You could have gotten bad". Cressida's master was furious with her after helping her out of the water, he offered her a towel to dry up her body.
Cressida was covered in rags and given a walking stick.
" This is really bad, my strength is gone." Cressida said within her, dabbed her body, she held her fist and suddenly threw up.
"Is it motion sickness again?" "I'm so worried about how weak you have become" her master said tapping her back
"Weak?" "This body is unbelievably weak and unhealthy, I shouldn't switch bodies just yet. Let me stay as Cressida for now."
"I'm sorry, mister" She told her presumed master audibly.
"It's fine, It's because your body is weak. Let us fill ourselves up" Cressida simply nodded weakly. She wasn't willing to say much anymore.
Elena gets accustomed to becoming Cressida.
Elena as a Shadow Assassin is sensitive to the smell of blood, therefore she didn't eat animals that shed blood as humans but as Cressida she was forced to eat chicken and other animals at the restaurant and she loved it absolutely.
She starts to understand the world she’s tumbled into, as she finds herself outside the brothel with her supposed master all covered in rags and a blindfold with her walking stick. No one knew Cressida could see except her, Cressida was sold to the brothel mistress for a ransom.
"An old woman took her in after she lost both of her parents but she got sick and recently passed away, the debts she had due to her illness got passed down to her, which is why she's here to be sold off. I will be leaving now" Cressida held him by the hand when he intended to leave.
"You cannot sell off this poor soul to the brothel" she said to him.
"I wish you well but… he quickly struggled out of her hold and went off hastily.
Miyoung was fuming in anger but she had no choice.
"I can't believe he fed me chicken to sell me off to this place"Cressida's fumes increase now, all the while talking inwardly." I will rip you into pieces once I regain my powers."
The brothel mistress walked down to where she was standing
"You look way too skinny" Cressida is being cut out of her fumes by the brothel mistress.
"I wonder if you will become prettier if you become chubbier." Cressida turns to look at her pitifully.
"Just give up on me, getting chubbier will not make me prettier. I am useless and not suitable to work in a brothel, sell me off to somewhere else".
" You talk eloquently, I heard you sing well, I hope you sing as well as you talk." The brothel mistress went closer to scent her and held her nose in disgust.
