Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 212

Chapter 212: Back to School

After returning to Solara, Layla immediately began shadowing Karina, immersing herself in the inner workings of the Skyreach Group. She wanted to understand every detail, every nuance of the company’s operations. Meanwhile, Lillian made her way back to the Golden Coast—her sanctuary, a place where she moved with ease and confidence, free from the fear of being discovered or questioned.

Once inside her private space, Lillian carefully examined the small pill Geo had handed her. The room was quiet except for the faint hum of the city outside. Sunny and Blue floated nearby, their excitement palpable as they circled around her.

Lillian raised the pill to her nose and inhaled deeply. The scent was familiar—strange and metallic, almost like the sharp tang of blood. She had encountered this smell before, on that old man. It was an eerie reminder of something dangerous.

Blue leaned closer, mimicking her action. “There’s a strong trace of Ms. Karina in this,” he observed quietly.

Lillian’s eyes widened in surprise. “Karina’s blood?” she whispered, caught off guard.

Blue nodded solemnly. “It’s taken directly from a woman’s heart—literally. But not just any woman. She has to be pure, untouched, and born at the most unfortunate time imaginable.”

He continued slowly, “Then, for forty-nine days, she’s fed a hidden poison. At the moment before death, the blood is drawn from her heart.”

A cold shiver ran down Lillian’s spine. She hadn’t imagined such cruelty existed in the world. “What happens if someone consumes it?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

Blue’s tone darkened. “Her blood contains a parasitic toxin. Once ingested, it amplifies mental strength and shuts down pain receptors completely—nothing can hurt the person, no matter what.”

“But the longer it stays in the body,” he added grimly, “the more it erodes all emotions until the person becomes a perfect killing machine. There was once an emperor who built his shadow army this way.”

Lillian’s face grew serious. “Is there any way to fight against it? If Radovia really has something like this, Dracovia is facing a nightmare.”

“There is,” Blue replied. “You have to find the original host carrying the primary strain and eliminate them. Once that host dies, the toxin in all others will turn against their bodies and kill them instantly.”

Lillian frowned deeply, the weight of the threat pressing down on her thoughts. If Radovia ever unleashed this weapon on Dracovia—or worse, on the world—the devastation would be unimaginable.

It wasn’t until the morning of the first day of school that Lillian finally left her sanctuary.

She woke early, feeling a mixture of anticipation and calm as she strolled toward Riverdale High. The sun was just rising, casting a warm glow over the familiar grounds. The entrance was still flanked by luxury cars, a silent testament to the school’s status.

Nearly two years had passed since Lillian last attended classes here, and many new faces now filled the campus. Yet, despite the changes, her effortless beauty still drew attention like a magnet.
