  When the sunlight lit up the room, Tina opened her heavy eyelids to see a foreign ceiling .

  Tina looked dumbfounded as confusion started spreading across her face .

  She sat up to discover herself on a bed inside a room she’s never seen before .

  Tina looked around to try and ascertain her present location .

  "This is . . . "

  She furrowed her brows, she tried her best to remember what happened before she lost consciousness .

  That’s right, she got stopped by a monstrously strong individual during her attempts on Seitenshi’s life .

  She found out from her handler that she was up against someone who can stop sniper bullets with his aiming skills . She was up against the guild master of Fairy Tail, Noah Dreyar .

  Fairy Tail, and Noah Dreyar are names that were familiar with Tina .

  Noah is the one who made Fairy Tail a sanctuary for all cursed children .

  He achieved almost worldwide fame for his act of sheltering and nurturing the cursed children .

  For cursed children who heard about Fairy Tail, they all paid attention to any news coming from this organization . In addition, they are also immensely grateful and respectful of the patron who established this institution .

  Noah is someone Tina admired very much .

  After receiving her mobilization orders, Tina looked forward to seeing Noah, she wanted to see what Fairy Tail is like .

  Alas, she received orders to take Noah’s life because he was a hindrance to her mission .

  Frankly, Tina couldn’t accept it .

  However, an order is an order .

  She was brought up as a tool of murder . Going against the reason she was made would be tantamount to losing her raison d’etre .

  Tina compromised in the end .

  In the end, she was defeated again .

  To add insult to her injury, the guild master she looked up to turned out to be the warm Onii-san who took care of her without caring about her background .

  Her fight with Noah vividly replayed in her mind .

  It ended with Noah pointing a gun at her head .

  Her recollections stopped there because that’s where she blacked out .

  After Noah pulled the trigger, she woke up in this room .

  "Is this heaven?"

  Tina mumbled when a creeping sense of fatigue gripped her .

  Ignoring her identity as a mechanized soldier, Tina is an owl-type initiator .

  Due to the genes of the owl inside her, she exhibited the astute senses of an owl at night . She can enter a state of heightened visual and auditory awareness when night comes .

  Due to that, she’s practically a beast night . Whereas in the day, she’s very slugging and she gets bogged down by this crippling desire to sleep .

  Click .

  The door opened and Tina turned towards the source of the sound almost immediately .

  The girl who entered was about the same age as Tina .

  She’s also a girl Tina recognized .

  Tina gasped .

  "Kayo?"

  "Oh, you’re awake?"

  Kayo looked at Tina with her poker face . She proceeded to ask her .

  "Are you uncomfortable anywhere? Hurting anywhere?"

  "N-no . . . "

  Tina answered on reflex . She trained her owl-eyes on Kayo .

  "Where am I?"

  "Here?"

  Kayo asked .

  "You’re currently at Fairy Tail . "

  "The Fairy Tail?"

  Tina looked like she couldn’t believe her ears .

  "Why am I here?"

  Kayo reminded her .

  "Do you remember what happened before you lost consciousness?"

  Tina recalled the result of the duel on that fateful night and she looked lost .

  "I-I was defeat by Onii-san . I asked him to kill him and then Onii-san acquiesced to my request before he pulled the trigger . . . "

  "You’re right . "

  Kayo interrupted Tina .

  "The guild master ended your life once . "

  "He killed me?"

  Tina couldn’t wrap her head around Kayo’s word .

  "What do you mean by that?"

  "I mean, Tina Sprout is already dead . "

  Kayo answered in a nonchalant tone .

  "You’re now the guild master’s captive . "

  "Ca-captive?"

  Tina was showing a vacant look when Kayo grabbed her hands .

  "Come with me . "

  Kayo pulled Tina along without any further words .

  Noah sat in the living room . He’s now free, an abnormal event considering his busy schedule . He was using the remote on the TV to find shows that strikes his interest .

  Soon, two sets of footsteps came from the hallway and Noah stopped . He looked at the hallway to see Kayo escorting Tina here .

  Kayo let go of Tina’s hand and she backed away to the side like a well-trained maid .

  "Onii-san . . . "

  Tina couldn’t look Noah in the eyes as she lowered her head . She wanted to say something but her words got stuck inside her throat .

  If Tina couldn’t figure what happened by now, her experience and reputation as someone who held the rank of no . 98 would be wasted on her .

  Noah spared her, what else can explain her survival .

  She went at him with the intention of killing him .

  Noah returned her malice by sparing her and taking her back to his home, Fairy Tail .

  There is an emotional storm inside Tina’s heart, that’s why she couldn’t locate the correct words to voice her thoughts .

  "If you don’t know what to say then don’t say anything . "

  Noah read her mind and he reached out to rub her on the head .

  "Now, do you want to live at Fairy Tail?"

  "You mean I can stay here?"

  Tina looked very riled up .

  Any cursed child who heard about Fairy Tail would do anything to get to Fairy Tail .

  Fairy Tail is one of the few institutions that genuinely took care of curesd children .

  But, can someone like her stay in a place like this?"

  "My body is the product of my nation’s hard work and technology . "

  Tina said with a disappointed look on her face .

  "My master will never permit my stay in this place . "

  Noah shut her up with another line .

  "Let me worry about that!"

  Noah caressed her hair .

  "You girls are children, just think about how to live happily!"

  The warmth from the giant hands above her seeped into her heart . She stood there like a statue for a short while .
