Chapter 156: Will I ever get salvation?!

Celestia’s POV:

It has been a day since I woke up from my vision. It is strange that I was able to survive a day without my phone. I reminded myself that I am not in the mortal realm anymore.

I pinched myself many times to know if these things are happening for real or not. But I didn’t find myself waking up from sleep in my old room, so this must be my reality.

I am not Serena anymore! I am Celestia, and I am an Angel warrior. My mission now is to eradicate the Silver Shadow who betrayed me and used me for his selfish desires.

I got out of the cottage when it was the time of the sunrise and offered my prayers to the Holy Aiden as I did in my previous life. But the sunlight wasn’t very kind on my skin.

The Half-Vampire in me was not letting me live in peace. Will I ever get salvation from this curse?

After I finished my prayers, I got into the cottage and went to Daviana, who was in the kitchen. She was throwing some ingredients in a medium-sized copper cauldron that was on the countertop.

It always freaked me out when she did something like this back when we were in the mortal realm. Once a little kid from the neighborhood got into our home, and he spotted Daviana making some potions in a cauldron. The kid began to shriek out at sight.

Then we had to give him a memory-erasing potion to make him forget that. Ever since that incident, I forbid Daviana not to make potions when she has the door unlocked. From now on, I don’t have to freak out. We are not in the mortal realm anymore!

Daviana glanced at me and said, "I am making a honey and milk potion for you."

Even though I liked honey and milk, my body was craving something else. I want blood! I don’t know why I have been feeling so thirsty since yesterday. I fed on a Manticore just four days ago. Still, I am thirsty!

And the worst part is I can’t ask anyone else that I need blood. What will they think of me?

"Celestia, are you alright?" Daviana asked me while she was pouring honey drops from a goblet into the cauldron of milk.

"Yes, I am fine," I lied to her.

She placed the wooden ladle on the countertop and then turned to my side. "If you are fine, then why are you not happy that I am making you your favorite food?"

I still don’t understand how she could read me like an open book without actually reading my mind. When I didn’t give her a reply, she got closer to me to touch my hand. But I moved away from her immediately and stopped her from touching me.

"Celestia," she called me out. "I know why you are unhappy. You are thinking about him, aren’t you?"

I gasped out instantly. " No! Why would I even think about him? I am completely over him!"

"Are you sure about that, Celestia? If you still have feelings for him, then you can talk about it to me. I promise that I won’t judge you."

I was already thirsty, and after listening to her, I got so annoyed. "Why does everyone keep on asking me if I am still in love with him?" I yelled at her. "Do I look like a love-sick puppy to you all? The only feeling that I have for him is hatred. So can you all please don’t ask me such questions again!"

Daviana got hurt by my harsh words. I instantly felt guilty for hurting her. "I am sorry," I apologized to her. "I didn’t mean to hurt you."

"It’s okay, Celestia," she smiled at me. "I am happy to know that you are over him."

Davania got back to brewing the honey potion. Once she was done, she offered the potion to me in a goblet. I really didn’t feel like drinking this now.

When I was about to take the first sip, Daviana said, "The Highlanders are waiting for your arrival. We are going there soon."

I was so shocked that I spit out the potion which I was drinking. Daviana got scared by my gesture. What is she saying? Should I have to go to the Highlands now? But I am very thirsty now. What if I hurt someone there?!

"Celestia, What is going on with you?"

I guess that there is no use in hiding the truth anymore. "I am feeling thirsty," I confessed to her.

She gasped and asked me," How can you be thirsty? You fed just four days ago?"

"I don’t know what is happening to me. I feel so thirsty, and I don’t think that I can control myself anymore. I might hurt someone if I go to the Highlands. So please don’t persuade me that I should come there."

I was waiting for the horror look to appear on her face. But she was surprisingly calm! She then opened the upper cabinets that were over the countertop and took another goblet from it.

That goblet was larger than the one I had in my hand. I didn’t want her to bring that copper goblet closer to me to know that there was blood in it.

I hastily grabbed the goblet from her and began to drink the red metallic liquid. The blood doesn’t taste like the sweet honey potion. I disliked this taste so much.

But still, I thirst for this liquid! I crave this so much that sometimes I don’t hesitate to slaughter innocent animals for it! I emptied the goblet clean without leaving a single drop of blood in it.

Now I was able to see the terror in her eyes. Even though she loves me, she gets scared whenever I drink this thing.

"Are you feeling normal now?" she asked me.

I nodded my head and wiped my mouth and neck that was covered by blood now. How long should I have to be this deadly creature?
