The lady with the veil

To live without any aim is as same as being dead. Even after having tremendous wealth the loneliness that was encrypted in Jehan's heart was slowly eating away his soul. When the lady with the veil rebuked at the person who passed bad comment against him, it was the first time someone stood for him. He did not know her name or background.

He wanted to befriend him. 'Even if she has any ulterior reason, I want to meet her.' He could not sleep all night thinking about the lady with the veil and the burning memories of his childhood

Meanwhile at Elina's residence -

'Holy Sh*t. I have told him that I will meet him tomorrow, but what am I going to do If he discovers my identity and my power.' Elina started panicking but still could not convince herself not to meet him. She knew that if her power is discovered, her life will be at stake. People related to political powers will trey to use her like a lab rat. 'But still, how can I leave a person to suffer? It is against my morality.' After some deep thought she came to an idea. 'He does not know my appearance or background. All I have to do is stop wearing veil after treating him.'

The next day when Lehan arrived at Cybella's temple he saw her sitting at the front bench.

"My lady, were you waiting for a long time? "

Elina turned back and gave a smile. " Ah, so you have came. No need to worry, I just came a little ago. Now follow me to the inner room."

Jehan did not know where he going. He wanted to believe in God one more time.

After they reached the inner room Elina closed the door so that no one could see her while treating him.

"You may not know me but believe me, I have healing powers. I can cure your burn mark of your face. But you have to promise me that would not ask my name or try to find me. "

Lehan nodded like a obedient child. He was clueless. He never heard that someone can have healing powers. 'Let me see what she can do. '

She mad him sit on the chair and closed her eyes and started enchanting the named of Goddess Cybella. She started stroking his scar with her bare hands. Her fingers started giving him a warmth which he never felt in his life. He wanted to get immersed in that feeling and never come out. He never knew that a slender pale hand can give such a feeling of warmth.

As he tried to touch the fingers that was moving like a painter's brush on a canvas, she spoke, " Sir, I have cured your scar. But if you go like this outside people will question you. For yours and my safety I am going to bandage you. Do not open the bandage before one month. And if someone asks you about your scar, you can just tell them that you met a medical sage who cured you. And after curing you he went back to mountains. "

Jehan moved his fingers on his face. He was astonished. The scar was really vanished.

" But lady if you do not tell me your name then how am I going to repay you? "

Elina berged in and said, "You do not need to repay me."

"I am Duke Jehan Lancaster. If you face any type of trouble or need any help you can ask me for help. "

"Ok. I am going away first.

Elina then opened the door and hurriedly went away.

Years went by but he could not forget that warmth that he felt in her fingers. He bacame the best swordsman. People started calling him beast due to his performance in the battle that held between Alasthia and Norengard. He still could not forget the memories of Olivia. He was dying inside. People used to tremble infront of him due to his cold personality.

At the mean time Elina learnt swordmanship for self protection. In her previous life she was black belt in Karate and Kungfu so weilding a sword was not very difficult for her. She also started going to orphanages on a regular manner.
