" Well I guess you're also to thank since you rushed so quickly to stop him from escaping." Adrian muffled his chuckle before letting go of Grey, he then picked up Emma and twirled her in the air before dropping her back down.

" And I can't forget about you two." He said, turning towards Snow and Amy. " I'm glad all you came to my aid when I needed it–"

" Ugh!" Adrian words fell short when a squirrel fell on his face and started scratching at it, looking rather vexed. The squirrel even tired to escape into his mouth but

Grey easily grabbed the squirrel by the tail, pulling it off him.

" Well now, aren't you a little feisty little fella." Adrian said before choking and spitting out tufts of hair from his mouth.

The Squirrel let out little cries yet continued to glare at Adrian as if it'd seen it's arch enemy.

" He doesn't look like he likes you very much." Amy laughed while making her way over.

" Well I can see that..." Adrian smiled warily before glancing at the squirrel. " But why would he attack me all of a sudden?"

" Perhaps you did something to it?" She said.

" What business would I have with a mangy squirrel in the first place." Adrian rolled his eyes.

" I think it's just sick..." He added, staring at the animal with squinted eyes.

" Well you better hope it doesn't have rabies." Amy snickered.

Adrian paused, a trace of fear on his face. " You're joking... Squirrel's can get rabies?"

" Crap! I better get back to the camp and see if Ignatius can help me treat it before it's too late!" Adrian said, already rushing towards the camp.

Amy chuckled seeing this side of him. " What about the squirrel then?" She said out loud from behind.

" Just have Grey eat it... One less rabid squirrel would do the world some good." He paused and said.

Grey didn't even waste a moment before shoving the creature into her mouth and crunching down on it. Her, Emma and Snow stiffened momentarily but calmed down after a moment as if they'd felt something strange for a moment. Their eyes shifting towards Adrian for an instant.

" That's just nasty..." Amy looked a bit nauseated.

" Oh and Snow." He said, holding his chin in contemplation.

" Yes darling." She replied in a slightly higher tone, her expression practically beaming.

" Could you please help me clean up the scene." Adrian said, gesturing towards the corpses with his gaze before his gaze finally landed on his own corpse.

" W-What?" Snow's expression faltered, a look of confusion on her face.

" I want you to get rid of them before anyone sees, you know, like how you got rid of it last time." Adrian said, a light smile on his face.

Snow lips trembled for a moment, her eyes darting downwards.

" You don't want to do it?" Adrian raised a brow.

" It's not that... I just..." Snow's said, her voice similar to a mutter.

" What are you two talking about." Amy asked, curious towards what was going on between the both of them.

" It's nothing..." Adrian said, smiling at Amy. " Just a little secret between the both of us." Adrian chuckled.

" Since you don't want to do it." Adrian said, his gaze moving off her towards another. " Emma, could you please get rid of them for us. I'd hate for anyone to chance upon them after all. It would definitely cause a lot of issues."

" You're sure?" Emma asked, her brows furrowed as if she found his suggestion hard to believe.

" Of course." He said. Emma stared at him for a moment in silence, Instead of saying anything.

Adrian looked puzzled. " Is something the matter?" He asked yet Emma simply shook her head.

Adrian said nothing else and began heading back towards the camp. Amy glanced at the dead bandits for a moment before following after him with Grey, leaving only Snow and Emma behind.

Emma began making her way towards the corpses but paused and stared at Snow who's palms where clenched, her shoulders shaking somewhat.

" Are you ok?" The goblin asked, looking curious.

Snow's lips pressed tight but she let out a breath as if to calm herself down. " Yes... Just

... It's nothing." She eventually said before following after the others.

" No!!!" Lucius shut up from his slumber, completely frightened.

He sat up straight on his bed, his body drenched in cold sweat. Struggling to catch his breath. In his mind, he vividly recalled a horrifying sensation of having his flesh being crushed and severed constantly, all while being wrapped around a slippery tongue.

" Damn that bastard!!!!" Lucius struck the bedframe next to him, the wood didn't bend but a stinging pain coursed through his body and yet Lucius didn't seem to mind, instead his current apprehension and rage completely over clouded his rage.

" Just how is this possible..." He mumbled to himself looking horrified. " I've died a few times before, so how come this is different?!"

' Why is it that I woke up in another body instead of my own...And who is that bastard who was using my body.' Thinking of the imposter that had been acting like himself, misleading Amy, Snow, Grey and Emma. Lucius felt as if someone had forced a molten red bar down his throat.

' Now I'm stuck in this new body...' He stared at his hands and feet, unconsciously touching his face. ' Moreover, I'm not even sure, where I am.' He stared out the window at the beautiful night sky.

When he saw his grand bedroom, he concluded that he must've been trapped in the body of someone wealthy.

" But that's all I know..." He muttered in frustration.

" F***!" Lucius cursed out loud but he quickly lowered his voice when he heard the sounds of foot steps approaching his room from the outside.

The door was gently opened as if the other party dared not to be too forceful, afterwards, a Young woman in a maids outfit stepped in.

What Lucius noticed that was particularly eye-catching about her, where the belled collar around her neck, a feline like tail that twirled nervously behind her, and her cat ears that continued to twitch as she stared at him.

" Did you need something young master Lucius." The maid bowed right after entering his room.

' She's a supernatural?' Lucius thought to himself, not expecting such a situation and by the way she referred to him, it solidified his suspicions that he really was someone of high status.

" No no... It's nothing. I believe I just had a troublesome nightmare. There's no reason for you to be worried." Adrian said with a smile yet the maid still looked on edge which he didn't understand.

" Umm... I think you can leave now." Adrian said with an amicable smile, right now he really wanted to gather his thoughts and think of what was his next course of action.

" I-I should leave? Are you sure young master Lucius?" The maid asked, her expression fearful why her voice stuttered on occasion.

Adrian was silent, staring at her, he could see how frightened of him she was, even if she tried her best to hide it, maybe due to her constant stress, her attempts were no different than a fragile cup trying to hold water meant for a bucket.

' Come to think of it, Who are my...' Adrian wondered once more.

" Arrck!" Whether his question was heard by some unknown entity, he felt a sudden ache in his head, forcing him to grab at his hair.

" Young master! Are you alright." The maid now looked even more anxious.

" Should I go call you a doctor?!" She asked, her eyes shaking in fear while watching him in pain.
