No.

Rosalind shook her head.

She did not want him dead. Not yet. Moreover, she did not need to do the killing. In the future, Federico would die. By now, she knew enough to understand that there were things that fate could not change.

Just like Milith's death.

She was certain that death would soon come for Federico too. What she wanted was to make them suffer a bit more.

"The relics in Aster have grown stronger and that might be because I touched it," Rosalind said. "I would like to visit the ruins to check if that is indeed the case."

"You think the fact that the beasts invaded them during the day is because the relics have grown stronger?"

She nodded. "Do you think I'm wrong?" After what happened in his study, it was only natural that she would think that way.

"No. Show me your hand."

Rosalind complied. Then, he took a relic from his spatial bag and placed it on her palm.

"Cyttorak," Rosalind said. She had become familiar with the large red relic that looked like a gemstone in her past life because it could change someone's physical appearance.

She stared as it started glowing in the dark. Its blood-red color felt nostalgic. In the past, she often used this kind of gem to visit the black market to try and meet Mr. Pratt. She wanted herself to be as anonymous as possible to avoid implicating Dorothy.

However, the kind of Cyttorak that she used was not red.

The moment Rosalind touched it, a heavy emotion filled her heart. She could feel pure sadness coming from the stone. However, since she did not sense any memories, she knew this was not a stone that had dark energy.

"It's called a Sorrow Stone. A rare one that they found near the black forest. It can amplify any negative emotion such as grief and sorrow. Some people could not take the sorrow and grief and would end up losing their minds or breaking down and ending their own lives. This stone is a popular gift in the noble houses. They usually give it to the people that they hated. Because of the stone's appearance, hiding it in a vase of flowers or plants is pretty easy."

Rosalind nodded. She had heard about something like that before, but she had not seen one.

She closed her eyes and thought about making the relic stronger. She then bit her lower lip as extreme sadness filled her chest. She could feel tears on her cheeks and knew that this was probably the effect of the stone relic.

It amplified the sadness within her.

Just as she opened her eyes, she immediately noticed that the part of the stone that glittered had increased. Earlier, it was not that obvious while now, one could easily see it just from a glance.

Quickly, he took the relic away from her and put it away.

"It has gotten stronger," he said, his expression serious.

"I was right." Although, she did not know if she should be glad about being right this time.

"No one must know about this." He got up.

"I am not planning to tell anyone about it," Rosalind said. This secret was something that could be very dangerous once the seven families heard about it. It was best that she just kept this to herself.

When he walked towards the door, Rosalind got up. She did not know what had gotten into her, but she held his arm.

"Wait," she uttered.
