Beatrice and Leo gasped as the ink of Beatrice's writing dripped to the carpet! If the king sees this, he will be so freaking mad at them! If they want to escape this situation, they would need to find a maid in the castle.

The pair walked around for a very long time. Where on earth is a fucking maid?!! Can they even find one?!! Or is the maid hiding like a sneaky brat? Hmm.

Thirty minutes later...

So far, Beatrice and Leo have been walking around the castle for a super long eternity. No maid but they did find a computer. But wait! What was a computer doing here in the castle?!! Did the evil half-devil assassins drop it while they were about to leave? WHAT THE FUCK WAS IT DOING HERE?!!

Beatrice opened the computer. It was hacked unless they solved three difficult riddles.

Riddle 1: No warning of Timber could have stopped the dropping petals.

Beatrice wasn't a smart princess. She is never even titled a straight-A student so she doesn't even know the answers to the riddles. Holy shit. Luckily, Leo was the exact opposite as Beatrice when it comes to scores in tests at the Thorn Arena University. He gets A+ in almost every single one! Beatrice felt a strong feeling that she was going to fail at answering every single riddle correctly but she wanted Leo to help her.

"Beatrice, the angels! The demons! OMG! The grim reapers are the most important! So the answer must be death by axe!" Leo shouted and typed in the answer. Beatrice's mouth opened wide. She was surprised to find out that his IQ is so smart. Why, he could answer all the three riddles without one fail!

Riddle 2: Many have heard me, yet nobody has seen me. I won’t speak back unless spoken to. What am I?

"Leo! I need your help again!" Beatrice cried out in fear. She couldn't solve these by herself!

"Come on, princess! It's so obvious! An echo, dummy!" Leo was picking on her but they both needed to focus since they only had one riddle left. And they didn't think the last riddle would be that obvious. 

And they were indeed right...

Riddle 3: Better old than young; the healthier it is, the smaller it will be.

This time, Leo was sweating so bad. Beads of sweat came on his forehead to the corners of his eyes. Beatrice was also sweating. Both of them could not figure out what the answer is.

"Beatrice. It's time for you to guess this riddle," Leo suddenly replied. Hearing this made Beatrice jump. She shivered with fear. Hot angry tears sprang to her eyes. How could Leo do this to her?!! SHIT!!!

"Ugh, fine. But just don't give a damn in front of my fucking ass, am I strictly clear?" Beatrice answered in a cold rather icy voice. She stared at Leo and gave a glare. Leo glared back at her. Oh, come on! Focus, Beatrice! This was no time for fun! She needed to solve this impossible riddle that was killing her lungs.

Five minutes later...

Beatrice finally guessed the answer! "Aha! I knew it. Didn't know why that was so simple. Come on, Beatrice. You can do this!" she thought in silence. Giving an angry look at the computer, she typed in 'a wound', hoping that this was the answer to this question. Heartbeats filled her chest. Leo's heart beated too. Could they do it or meet their doom?

And 3...

2...

1...

Correct! The pair un-hacked the computer system! Now all they had to do was find out who was the killer behind their friends! Beatrice and Leo walked closer to the computer. There were a lot of CCTV cameras in the system. Beatrice tried to grab the watch in her pocket but she remembered that she dropped and broke it during the war! What had she done?!!

Leo tried to grab a watch and lucky for him, he found one! But only Beatrice could gain the ability to rewind time. She should be a time angel instead of an assassin - right?!!

Rewinding time was a piece of cake for her but Leo's clock was very different from hers. His clock can travel up to thirty days, just enough days to find out who the killer is!

Rewinding time 30 days ago...

Beatrice and Leo were finally up to the moment where Beatrice woke up and grabbed some alcohol from the kitchen pantry. And yep. She passed out and apparently, it was revealed that she threw up from drinking the alcohol which meant that she was drunk.

Rewinding time forward...

Beatrice was in the smoke footage right now. She could see herself backing away from a fallen angel - that exactly looked like Leo! NO WAY! THERE IS NO FUCKING WAY THAT LEO AND THE FALLEN ANGEL SHE MET IN THE FOG WERE THE SAME PERSON! NO WAY!!!

Rewinding time forward a little more...

This was it. The moment of truth was finally here. Beatrice could see herself and the murder killing every one of her beloved friends! The murder was indeed a mysterious creature that was nothing else but a demon devil! Time to take revenge and time for the assassin to go Godzilla!

Revenge time...

Tears fell down from Beatrice's eyes to the corner of her rosy cheeks. She needed to do something about the devil. And she must. It had to be pure evil for vengeance. And for - revenge.

"ARRGH! We can't let him get away with this! He can't any one of our friends anymore! We need to take revenge, Leo! And we MUST!" Beatrice growled as she grabbed Leo with her hand and they escaped the castle.

"Come on," she whispered to Leo as they rushed out of the almost-fallen castle.

"Great. This is going to be another horrible day," Leo said quietly to himself rather dully as they rushed back home.

Soon, they will kill that disgusting devil brat once and for all...
