Fuyu's pov

"Unnie, catch!" Byeol threw a sword at me. A freaking iron sword at me!!!

"Are you insane?" I shrieked, catching the sword with both of my hands.

"Hmm, good reflexes!" She said. Yup, she's insane...

"I'm going to show you some moves. Observe it" she said, taking her sword out of the sheath. She handled the sword like a true swordmaster and was quick on her feet, and she even did a backflip making me shocked.

"Now it's your turn" she said.

"Huh? I can't do all those moves you just did now" I gawked.

"You can do it!"

"I can't do it" I cried out.

"Yes, you can. Your powers will guide you."

"Uh Byeol, you know that I'm not allowed to use my powers" I sighed.

"Yeah, but now you gained strength and I can sense your mana energy getting stronger" she explained.

"But I do not know how to use my powers since I wasn't trained" I pointed out.

"There was this method helped me when I was young. But I don't know if it will help you" she

"Spill it out" I probed her.

"I know that it might sound silly but it really worked for me. You just have to close your eyes and think of a happy moment. Then you will feel your body floating in the air which means that your powers are under your control. But if you do a small mistake, your body will undergo a painful shock" she explained.

I instantly paled when I heard the last part. Why did she have to include that?

"Are you sure that I'm capable of doing it?" I stuttered.

"Yes, I'm confident and I'll intervene if something does happen to you" she assured me with her calm smile, but that still did not help me.

My dominant hand tightly gripped the handle of the sword and I closed my eyes, standing still. I tried my best to concentrate and think about a happy memory.

In Fuyu's mind

I stood in an unfamiliar chamber. I looked around, there was big bed and I saw four people.

A woman was laying on the bed, she look tired and exhausted but she was still beautiful and elegant. Beside her, a man was seated holding something in his arms and there were two young boys who were excited and jumping in their place.

I came closer to see who were they and I recognised them.

The man was my father, the emperor and those two young boys are Namjoon and Hoseok. So the woman who was in the bed must be the empress, my mother. My father was holding a baby and I guess that's me.

"My precious princess" My father smiled, looking at the baby who was sleeping peacefully.

"Thank you my love" My father said, kissing my mother's forehead, making her smile.

"Father, can I hold my sister?" Little Hoseok asked.

"Sure" He said, giving the baby to my brother. He carefully held her and cooed at her.

"She's so small" Hoseok said.

My other brother, Namjoon gently poked the cheeks of the baby which made her cry, which made him flustered.

"I only poked her cheeks" little Namjoon panicked.

"It's okay son" Father said, taking the baby and calmed her down.

"What shall we name her?" Father asked my mother, keeping the baby in her arms.

"Since she was born when the winter started, Her name is Fuyu, which stands for calm and hope" my mom said, smiling at the baby.

I stood there witnessing a beautiful moment of them sharing joy and warmth.

Then the view infront of me has changed.

I was standing in my chamber and I saw a woman, who looks like me. She seemed nervous and disturbed.

"No, my family wouldn't do that to me" she said, covering her ears.

Who is she talking to?

I looked around to see no one but then a dark fog flew past me and surrounded her.

That black fog!

"That's the truth, my dear princess. If you don't want to suffer, you should die!" The fog spoke.

What?!

"No! They love me a lot" The princess spoke, with tears forming in her eyes.

"Do you want me to kill your brothers?" The fog threatened.

"No! Please don't!" The princess begged.

"If you don't want that to happen, just go to the lake and jump" the fog said, swirling around her.

"Okay, I will. Leave my family out of this" she said, kneeling down.

"Good" Then the black fog disappeared.

The princess cried, her body was shaking and covered her mouth from making sounds.

She wiped her tears away when someone knocked on the door.

"Come in" she said, Minji came inside and greeted her.

"Your highness, the lunch is prepared" she informed the princess.

"I'm not feeling good, please tell that to my father and my brothers" She told Minji.

"Yes your highness. Please take some rest" Minji bowed down and left the chamber.

After few minutes, the princess stepped out of the chamber and I followed her.

She walked towards the path which it leads to the lake and stood at the dock.

"I'm sorry father, Hoseok oppa and Namjoon oppa. I love you all but I have to do this to save you all" She said to herself and jumped into the lake.

I felt my skin was prickled by ton of needles and I couldn't bear the pain that I let out a scream.

Byeol's pov

I carefully observed Unnie and I was relieved that she was doing fine. I could see her powers appearing and there wasn't any complications. I went back to reading a book on martial arts and suddenly I heard her scream, making me look up. She was floating up in the air and her face shows that she was in pain.

I used my powers to stop her powers from destroying her. Fortunately, her powers dissipated and I caught her before she could touch the ground.

"Unnie" I tried to wake her up but she's unconscious.

"Sorry Unnie" I apologised before I produced a electric shock enough to to wake a person up, through my finger and directed at her.

"Ouch that freaking hurts!" She got up, clutching her arm. I sighed in relief. Phew...My neck is safe right now.

"Unnie you scared me!" I scolded her.

"I'm a strong girl...this is a small issue" she said proudly.

"Really?" I asked, raising my eyebrow.

She nods.

I poked her skin resulting a loud scream from her.

"That fucking hurts!" She cried out.

"I went through this multiple times so don't fool me" I said.

"Okay Master" she said.

"You were doing fine at first, what went wrong?" I asked.

"I don't know, I was seeing a happy memory but then it changed into a bad memory" She said.

"That's weird, I mean you said that you saw your happy memory but then it shifted to a bad one. It doesn't work like that" I said.

Fuyu's pov

"What do you mean?" I asked her.

"When you're thinking of a happy memory, it can't shift to a bad one unless someone planted in you" She said, thinking deeply.

The black fog...

"Or I'm wrong" she said.

"We're done for the day, so I'm gonna take you back to your chamber" she said, helping me up.
