" En Vietnam, llamamos a Corea la tierra del kimchi"

❤—Olivia Dawn POV—❤

Olive and I go back to Benjamin's house, in the house, Ace and his father are still sleeping so Olive and I don't make any noise

Olive's stomach started rumbling, my brother was blushing because of it. I find this scene adorable, I'm always stern with him but I still love him because he's my brother of course.

" Let's see what's in the fridge" I said as I opened the fridge

And... no ready-to-eat food, only fresh vegetables, fruits and raw meat, and sweets. I don't want Olive to eat sweets early in the morning because it's not healthy so I decided to make the food myself

" Olive, do you want me to cook for you?"

" That's okay, anyway, the food you cook is always tasty" My little brother's compliment almost made me have a heart attack

I'll make kimchi, the famous Korean food that Olive and I eat when we go to Korea. Having enough ingredients to make kimchi, I told Olive to go to the living room to play or something without making any noise

To be honest, making kimchi without using magic is quite relaxing. I remember my cousin Louisa Dawn used to cook for me and Olive without magic and it was delicious, she taught me some other things like makeup, hairdressing and sewing. It's like a lesson in how to be a housewife

Suddenly something happened, I saw someone and everything around turned black. I feel like my body can't move like I'm frozen, I tried calling Olive but couldn't like my voice was taken away by someone, I tried to look away but I couldn't, it felt like a magnetism was making me unable to look away

That person was a woman, she had curled hair as red as blood wearing a crown that looked like the Queen of Hearts, eyes as black as ink, and lips as beautiful as roses. She wears a white dress decorated with red painted white roses and solitaire cards

" Greeting, Miss Dawn" That woman does a curtsy

" Who are you?" I say in my mind

" Oh how rude of me, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Lizzie Redhart"

" Wait, you can read my mind?"

" Yes, I can read minds"

" How?"

" That's a secret"
" Okay then..." I said, " What do you want from me?"

" Nothing much, I just want to chat with someone for a bit and I'm glad it's you"

" Okay, what do you want to talk about?"

" I want to say that someone will be Overblot" "Lizzie" said simply

" Overblot?!"

As far as I know, Ace's father said that Overblot is a phenomenon where a mage overloads their magic but negative emotions are the most significant impact.

But... who is it? Who will Overblot? Ace? Mr Benjamin?

I knew there was no way I or my brother Olive would Overblot because our magic was different from the magic in Twisted Wonderland

" It's time to say goodbye" "Lizzie" waved goodbye

" Wait" I was able to speak and move, I tried to run close to her but she was gone
