Chapter 592 An Ominous Presentiment


    Sylvia''s POV:


    I ran to the study and locked it behind me. Then, without further dy, I took out a paper and a pen


    and sat at the desk.


    "Sylvia, what are you doing?" Yana asked curiously.


    "Drawing."


    I closed my eyes and began recalling the thorn pattern I had seen in Noreen''sboratory the other


    day. Then, I picked up the pen and drew what materialized in my mind.


    "Isn''t this the pattern we saw the other day?" Yana still remembered the pattern and analyzed it for


    me. "This pattern looks ominous. It must be some kind of a vicious curse."


    I remained silent. As I examined my drawing carefully, I realized it was the ckthorn I had seen in


    my dream.


    "Why are you drawing this? Have you seen the same pattern before?" Yana asked.


    "Yes, I had a dream. I dreamed of ckthorns, just like the ones I saw in Noreen''sb." My heart


    sank, and my stomach churned with unease.


    Dreaming about the ckthorns didn''t really frighten me.


    However, I dreamed of the thorns crushing and choking Rufus. It was absolutely terrifying.


    I had a hunch that it was definitely not a coincidence.


    "Is it possible you had such a dream because you had been thinking about it all day, ever since you


    saw it in Noreen''sb?" Yana thought my dream was a result of excessive thinking. But I knew there


    was more to it.


    "No." As I examined the pattern, I was more convinced my judgment was right.


    The ckthorns in my dream were the same as the ones I saw in Noreen''sb.


    An inexplicable emotion arose in my heart. It seemed like an invisible force was drawing me to it.


    "If that''s the case, why did Rufus appear in your dream too? How is he associated with the ominous


    thorns?" Yana grew serious and began helping me figure out the meaning of the pattern. "This is


    exactly why I feel uneasy." I sighed wearily.


    Just then, I recalled the words written beside the pattern on the book and recited them twice.


    Not just me. Yana, too, grew uneasy.

    "Merely hearing that terrifies me. Souls and lives shall be sacrificed? What is that supposed to


    mean? And only the most sincere love can grow theplete ck thorns? That''s bullshit. I think


    those witches had deliberately made up strange things on purpose."


    "Maybe it has something to do with Noreen. Perhaps it''s Noreen''s curse," I said.


    "But Noreen has not appeared, right? How could she have possibly gotten the chance to curse


    Rufus again?" Yana was confused. She asked me to look on the Inte about the thorn pattern.


    I turned on theputer and searched the verse. Hundreds of simr verses popped up on the


    screen. But none of them was the exact same as the one I saw, let alone the source and


    exnation.


    Then, I searched the patterns of thorns. All the patterns that appeared on the browser looked


    normal. None of them grew in the reverse direction.


    My head whirled with confusion. I sighed and turned off theputer in frustration. I decided to find


    an excuse and go back to theb to research it tomorrow.


    "That''s the vampires'' territory. Don''t go there," Yana advised. "It was too challenging for us to


    escape the cest time."


    "But if I don''t go, I will never have the chance to find out about the truth. Things at the border are


    about toe to an end and we''ll soon be leaving. I won''t be able to figure out the meaning of the


    pattern after returning to the imperial capital city. I think this whole thing is just too ominous."


    I didn''t care about how dangerous it was. I had to go back there and find out the truth, for the dream


    continued to haunt me and wreck my peace.


    "All right."


    Yana couldn''t persuade me, so she finally agreed to apany me.
