That Time I Got Turn Emberwing

Later, after forgetting and rembering again and again, Scarlett finally returned to Dreadhaven. She didn’t dare risk teleporting straight to the dreadhaven—what if she forgot and left him behind completely and forgot that she ever t him? That would have been a bigger ss.

So instead, she dragged him all the way, muttering to herself like a broken record.

“Osiris… ca from hell… needs to be treated… needs so rest… Osiris… ca from hell…” She repeated it over and over inside her head, her voice flat but determined.

By the ti she reached the outskirts of Dreadhaven, the sight in front of her made her stop.

A large crowd had already gathered. Their faces looked heavy, confused, and tense, as though sothing big had just happened. For a second, Scarlett thought there had been another attack. Her heart tensed up, but then she quickly dismissed the thought. No one from her pact had died—she would have felt it imdiately.

The mont the people noticed her, they bowed deeply and greeted her with respect. Strangely enough, even though Scarlett was dragging Osiris along the ground like a sack of potatoes, nobody looked at him, nobody asked, nobody even seed to notice his existence. It was as if he wasn’t there at all.

Scarlett raised a brow behind her blindfold, but she didn’t comnt. She was just about to open her mouth when Xao Feng stepped out from the crowd. Xao bowed slightly, her expression serious.

“My lady, sothing strange has happened,” Xao said.

She then quickly explained what had happened a few minutes ago—the battle between the archangels, the woman falling, Gabriel’s appearance, and his sudden retreat.

“The female angel seems to be an archangel too,” Xao added in a softer voice. “She’s unconscious and resting in the palace for now. Miss Lunatic, Reiza, and the others are keeping watch in case she wakes up as an enemy.”

Scarlett nodded firmly. “Good, good. Let’s go then!” She didn’t bother explaining Osiris’s situation, especially since nobody seed to notice him anyway. She simply continued dragging him along the ground as if nothing was out of place.

Later, when she entered the palace with Xao, the guards had cleared the area so that only they could go inside. The two quickly made their way toward the room where the archangel was unconscious.

But the mont Scarlett stepped inside, Lunatic turned and spotted her.

Her eyes first locked on Scarlett, then slowly trailed down to the man Scarlett was dragging across the polished floor like a half-broken mannequin.

Lunatic’s face twisted in complete confusion. Her mouth opened, her brows furrowed, and she asked with the most baffled tone imaginable—

“…Why are you dragging a corpse?”

Scarlett raised her eyebrow in surprise. “Oh, you can see him?”

At that mont, Li Feng, Xao Feng, and Semiath—who were waiting just outside the room—also lifted their brows in surprise. All three of them spoke at once.

“Oh yeah, I didn’t notice at all!”

“Did you get a stealth skill?” Li Feng asked curiously.

Scarlett quickly shook her head, waving her hand dismissively. “Stealth isn’t my style! I’ll explain later. For now, let’s just go inside first.”

The three exchanged a glance but didn’t press her further. They stepped aside and allowed Scarlett to enter.

Inside the room, Reiza and Siira were standing beside a woman lying unconscious on a bed. The woman looked otherworldly—six pure white wings stretched behind her, a glowing crown of wings hovered above her head, and she wore a robe so white and divine that it almost shone with a soft light.

Her face was delicate, flawless, and serene, so much so that it seed as if a goddess herself had descended to the mortal world.

“She’s really beaut—” Scarlett began to say, but before the words left her lips, she caught the sharp glares from both Lunatic and Reiza. Their eyes burned like blades piercing her. Scarlett imdiately clamped her mouth shut, cutting her words off mid-sentence as if she had never spoken.

Inside her mind, she let out a long exhale. “Phew… I was one step away from death!”

She decided to remain silent, but then Lunatic suddenly stepped back, her eyes narrowing with shock.

“Why are you dragging a corpse?” she asked, clearly forgetting she had asked the sa thing only monts ago.

Scarlett sighed helplessly. “Everyone, form a circle. This part is more important than the unconscious lady over there.”

After gathering everyone, Scarlett explained how she had found Osiris. Once she finished, she gently laid Osiris down on the second bed in the room.

“So—” Xao began to ask sothing, but before she could finish, Siira interrupted.

“Wait a minute!” Siira hurried to the corner of the room and pulled out a small board. She quickly used magic to write down everything Scarlett had just explained about Osiris.

“There! Even if we forget, we can just read this again.” She gave a satisfied smile.

“Good one, Siira!” Scarlett grinned and gave her a big thumbs-up.

Now that the matter of Osiris was recorded, everyone could finally turn their attention to the angelic woman on the bed.

But half an hour passed, and she still hadn’t moved a muscle.

“She has so injuries on her eyes,” Li Feng said thoughtfully, tapping her chin. “They aren’t regenerating at all. Or… do archangels not regenerate?”

“Of course they do,” Scarlett replied with certainty. “But maybe because of her eyes, the injuries spread deeper. It could have damaged her brain too. That’s probably why she’s still unconscious.”

As she spoke, her eyes drifted toward Osiris, whose condition looked even worse. His body was battered, and his life-force felt faint, almost fading with each breath.

“Maybe I should try healing him,” Scarlett muttered softly to herself. She walked over to his bedside and sat down gently.

She closed her eyes and summoned her fla of the phoenix, letting the fiery glow wrap around Osiris’s broken body. Normally, this fla could heal terrible wounds in seconds, cure deadly poison, and even purify deep curses. But this ti… the effect was painfully slow. The fla struggled against invisible damage, barely nding his body.

Scarlett bit her lip. “Too slow… his wounds aren’t just physical. They’re far deeper. What kind of battle did he go through to end up like this?”

Her thoughts churned with worry, but suddenly, everyone’s eyes brightened at the sa ti.

“She’s awake!” Siira exclaid with a wide smile, pointing at the angelic woman.

The angelic woman sat up slowly, her movents calm and graceful. She didn’t panic or rush, as though even without her sight she already knew she was in a safe place surrounded by a few people. With a wave of her hand, a silvery blindfold appeared out of thin air. She tied it gently over her face, covering the wounds where her eyes used to be.

Scarlett stepped forward carefully, her voice soft. “Hello… are you okay? Can you see us?”

The woman tilted her head slightly, her blindfold shifting with the motion. “Usually, I can. But right now, I can’t. Still, I can sense all of you clearly.” Her voice was delicate, like a breeze brushing across calm water. “Thank you for saving . I don’t know how you managed it, but by saving … you may have saved the entire world as well.”

As soon as she said that, her cheeks flushed, and she shook her head quickly in embarrassnt. “Please… forget what I just said about saving the world.”

Scarlett’s smug grin widened. She pressed her lips together, trying not to laugh. Inside her mind, however, she said, “Ain’t no way I’m forgetting that!”

Lunatic stepped forward, her tone steady and cautious. “Do you rember how you ended up here? And why all of this happened?” She carefully avoided repeating anything about the “ saving the world” that the woman had ntioned.

The angelic woman stayed silent, her posture still and thoughtful, as if she was weighing whether or not to share the truth.

Scarlett watched her closely and sighed inwardly. “She doesn’t trust us enough…”

But before her thoughts could spiral further, the angel shook her head slowly. “No… it’s not about trust. I simply don’t want you all to step into more danger because of .”

Scarlett froze, her dead heart skipping a beat. “Wait… did she just read my mind?!”

As if sensing her alarm, the angel gently shook her head again. “No, I didn’t read anyone’s mind. I simply predicted what you all might be thinking.”

Scarlett exhaled in relief, her shoulders dropping slightly. But, "Wait she predicted imh thoughts again
