"I've been in this prison for 10 days now," I spoke to myself... during this ti, the only voice I heard was my own... and it was pure silence... in fact, I started to feel lonely... I was always surrounded by won... well, by Charlotte, who never left my side, and now I haven't seen her even for a few seconds in 10 days. But, thinking about it, 10 days is too much ti; without a doubt, the group of students should have arrived by now... An idea crossed my mind, but I dismissed it: it was impossible that they didn't know where I was. The other possibility that ca to mind... had I been abandoned? Impossible, Charlotte would go crazy, and I don't think the others would leave like this... right?
I stood up... now that I think about it, I had forgotten that the main reason we ca to this place was for Estefany's assimilation... or so I thought, but the probability was very high... so I don't think that young crazy girl would accept easily... her personality is horrible. Wait... there's also the possibility that she only has that attitude with ... so, following that thread... maybe she has another personality and had helped them... that could explain the imnse amount of mana I felt three days ago.
But even so, I don't think she would have done it just like that... did Professor Athena have sothing planned? I don't know, but still... looking at the absolute void...
During these days, I had the silly idea of escaping. At one point, the boredom was killing , so I tried to sohow feel what could be below, but I felt nothing. I tried to direct my mana, but I couldn't either. I tried many things, and in the end, I gave up. The abyssal darkness was true darkness. For now, I couldn't see it; it was completely blind. I couldn't see beyond my eyes, aning I couldn't see where the deep darkness ended...
I reached a point where I thought that I had been placed in this place on purpose... literally to block and keep locked in this place... with nothing else to do, I just lay down, although to kill the boredom, I started exercising...
And so, five more days passed...

"The taste is quite good." The only redeeming thing about this place is that the crystal fruits are the best I have ever tasted...
"Tsk!" An extrely annoying click sounded behind ...
Without turning around, I kept savoring the sweet delicacy of the fruits. Right behind , exactly, was the young multicolored girl... she appeared out of nowhere yesterday and hasn't left since. She just keeps staring at as if she's going to kill at any second... it doesn't bother at all, strangely. She just keeps staring at with murderous eyes while clicking her tongue as if feeling repugnance just by looking at ...
Yesterday, I tried to start a formal conversation, but... she just kept staring at as if speaking more would get killed... so, I decided to wait for her to start talking... just that simple. But the situation is very uncomfortable; she doesn't stop looking at as if she's going to kill ... turning around again to eat so more fruit.
"..."
"..."
Letting out a ntal sigh, I made myself comfortable at the extre of the small prison... and we stayed in silence...
"Damn... this seems like so kind of psychological torture, just having a pair of vicious eyes filled with murderous intentions all day," I think to myself... there's nothing else I can do... looking at the multicolored young girl, I tried to speak... but long before I could open my mouth...
The stare intensified... so I shut my mouth... it was a clear signal for to stay quiet. And that's exactly what I did...

Another five days passed, now making it 20 days in this place. At this point in my life, I had already accepted that I had been abandoned... I had thought that maybe Professor Athena sold in exchange for helping Estefany and left to my fate in this place. Reflecting for a few days, I ca to the conclusion that she was very capable of doing that... it's not that I'm mad... I suppose, but I also knew how important the artifacts from Zone 8 were, the simple fact that they might already have a base idea of how to proceed so that the other chosen ones can assimilate them filled with joy. In the main story, they were all killed...
Besides, feeling the multicolored eyes piercing my back... she was still here, never left, and just kept staring at , not moving an inch since she arrived.
I had gotten used to her stare... thinking about before... she hadn't tried to kill , I guess she just wants to observe . I just hope it doesn't last two months or more like this...
"You are not him, who are you?" hearing her hollow voice... she asked a rather strange question...
Opening my eyes, I looked at her. She squinted her eyes while glaring at ...
"What do you an?" I asked in response, not understanding her question, but seeing that she was willing to talk, I answered...
She intensified her gaze: "I can see it clearly, I can also feel it, in fact, but you are another person, you are not the true owner of Anthony Von Valeriano's body that I knew, you are different, in soul and body and essence itself, everything is different, people who should have died, people who didn't matter at all, are now very important, one of them is the young woman known as Estefany, she was nobody, and yet now she is another person, important and very soon very powerful, the destiny I knew is no longer there. Now I can't see it, I don't know what will happen, you, you were responsible for everything, the butterfly effect you caused with your actions has led us to this point."
I felt my body shudder with her words, my eyes widened like saucers, she... how?
The young girl gave a mocking smile: "I know, because I've already lived it twice, I know you much more than you can imagine, but now I don't know you. I know the trash that was Anthony's existence, an arrogant, crazy, psychopathic boy who only cared about himself, full of envy, resentnt, hatred towards his own family and himself, Anthony who bragged about killing commoners, abusing them, and... betraying the empire, betraying his family and... leading the entire empire to ruin twi
