陶醉的妻子

When Annie realized it, her ice armor had already disappeared sometime when she fall.

Now she is lying on the concrete floor defenseless.

Without her ice armor covering her body, she becomes so vulnerable. And it is a very dangerous situation for her.

Steve shot towards Annie with his burning body. Then he landed on top of Annie.

Steve\'s feet were on either side of Annie\'s body. Flanking her body so she didn\'t have much room to move.

It was then that Annie saw Steve\'s face look even more hideous than before.

Even his face was already terrible enough with that devil grin.

But now the horror seemed to have multiplied.

Annie had no idea that such a thing was possible. To add more horror to the already terrifying face.

Now Steve was grinning too. However, his eyes turned maroon with black pupils.

Annie\'s eyes widened at Steve\'s strange change.

"What happened to you?" The question left Annie\'s mouth just like that. Without her realizing it.

Driven by the shock and fear that enveloped her.

"What do you mean?" Steve asked back. "I am myself. I just got stronger than before."

It was not Steve himself. Annie knew that Steve was not a good person.

But the evil that was now inside Steve was several levels higher than the evil that was in him before.

Annie knew about it not only from what she saw. But also from what she feels on a spiritual level.

It\'s like... her Magic also felt the drastic change that had made Steve become like this.

Whatever it was, it was something very foreign and dangerous.

Steve looked into Annie\'s eyes with his red, dark, bloodshot eyes.

"Don\'t you also want to get stronger?" Steve suddenly asked that.

Annie didn\'t answer. Not because she did not want to answer it. But because she actually has a desire inside her heart to be stronger if she knows there is a possibility for that.

But Annie also knew that what Steve had to offer was not something good. So she felt reluctant to answer him.

"No?" Steve cocked his head to one side. "Well, I don\'t need your answer."

Steve stretched his hand towards Annie\'s face. Seeing him, Annie widened her eyes.

"What are you doing?" Annie asked in a trembling voice.

Steve obviously wanted to do something with her.

"Just shut up and let things happen. You\'ll get the power you want," Steve said.

"N-No!"

But Annie\'s resistance was useless. The red mist came out of Steve\'s hands and entered Annie\'s body quickly.

In an instant, all the red mist that had come out of Steve\'s body had been absorbed into Annie\'s body.

On the other hand, Thomas felt uneasy because suddenly the camera watching Steve and Annie\'s fight went off.

There should have been a report about the camera damage to the technician. But after a few seconds, there was still no response from the technicians.

What was in front of Thomas at this time was just a black monitor screen that didn\'t display anything.

Thomas also couldn\'t hear anything from the practice room. And it all makes him feel very frustrated.

In the end, Thomas contacted the technician directly. He even screamed out loud to show how frustrated he was.

"Get your ass here and fix the damn camera!"

Then Thomas slammed down the phone with a bang. He stared again at the monitor screen with his tightly gritted teeth.

But not long after, the computer screen lights up again.

It was as if the dark curtain that had previously covered it was lifted.

Thomas saw that Steve and Annie seemed to have finished their fight.

Steve stood up with a body full of sweat and emitting white steam.

While Annie was still lying on the floor with her eyes slightly closed. But she still looks conscious.

Steve then reached out his hand toward Annie to help her get up.

Everything looks fine. The wound caused by Annie\'s ice blade on Steve\'s body wasn\'t too bad either.

"Phew..." Thomas breathed out with obvious relief.

He didn\'t know what had happened during those few seconds.

His instincts told him that he should check everything to make sure nothing went wrong.

But Thomas also felt that it was not too important. Everything looks fine in Thomas\'s eyes.

"Maybe it\'s just their Magic," Thomas muttered to himself.

He had heard that Magic could indeed affect electronic devices.

The camera was indeed designed to be able to withstand the waves from Magic usage.

But that doesn\'t mean there won\'t be problems. Especially if their Magic becomes stronger.

So Thomas thinks that it is a natural thing.

The phone rings suddenly. It was from the technicians he had contacted earlier. Thomas answered with a sigh.

Steve helped Annie to her feet. But Annie\'s eyes still looked empty.

It was only a few seconds later that her consciousness returned to her body.

"How do you feel?" Steve asked with a smile.

"What are you doing to me?" Annie asked suspiciously.

Steve chuckled. "Don\'t worry. I didn\'t do anything weird to you."

Even though Steve said that Annie still thought that she felt something different in her body.

"I\'m just giving you a new power. So you can be stronger than before. Isn\'t that a good thing?" Steve said.

Annie actually felt that there was something strange about her body.

However, she did not feel pain or any other negative effects.

Instead, all the pain she had experienced from the fight with Steve was now gone.

Even so, Annie didn\'t know whether that was a good thing or not.

"If you do something bad to me, I won\'t let you off the hook," Annie said.

After that Annie left the practice room.

Steve grinned to himself there. The goal was easily achieved.

With his Magic that has entered Annie\'s body, Steve will be able to have control over her.

That way he can remove obstacles and at the same time be able to use Annie to his advantage.
