"What?!" Anna widened her eyes in shock because the illusion had begun to control Noel. She clicked her tongue and started parrying Noel's relentless attack.

The clicking sound produced by the two swords kept echoing inside the tunnel. Noel's eyes were bloodshot even though his focus wasn't there. She could feel the hatred in Noel's eyes.

To her surprise, the hatred was actually similar to what she felt during the first time they met when Noel attacked her without thinking.

She was shocked because she had done all the things she could to diminish the hatred in his heart. But when she realized everything she did actually had no impact to him, she wondered whether she could really do it.

'Is this the reality? His hatred is at the same level as back then… Did I not change anything within him? Are we fated to be fighting each other until only one side is standing?' Anna's mind started to fall into despair.

'Noel is supposed to be a great powerhouse that can elevate the kingdom to a great height as long as I can diminish his hatred. His talent can even keep up with me who has the knowledge of the previous life. So, it's clear that he's more talented than me.

'But if this is going on, I'm afraid I'm the one who have to die. Is there truly no other way to solve the hatred between us? No, wait… Has he been holding this kind of hatred this whole time?'

Anna couldn't help but recall the memory when Noel did something for her. It was unforgettable. But now, the truth was revealed.

'Is there truly no way?' Anna thought before he found Noel raising his hand, creating a snowflake and tossing it to her.
