After the cancellation of my engagement, my long term bet with the king has finally proven a victor, and that's me.
With a reward of anything I wanted, I get to travel to the Diamond kingdom!
My plans and efforts were all for this moment, but it se...
"Why don't you just lie down like the filthy dog you are and die obediently?"

Her gaze, even if you weren't looking at her you could feel it. The empress of the Tanzanite kingdom has recently got the news that that brat Rina Bellrose is making connections in the Diamond kingdom.
'Damn her! First she ruined our reputation and now she wants us to lose the war?!' The empress clenched her fists as it turned whiter and whiter and gritted her teeth. 'That scheming bitch definitely has something that is making them (Diamond kingdom) help her!'
"Your majesty, please get a hold you yourself!" Finally she seemed to snap out her thoughts as she looked at the person beside her. Jin Jun Mei, a recent concubine that originated from the mysterious Jade empire in the east. 'Her looks were nice, so I decided to keep her but I guess that was a rash decision huh?'
Looking at the black haired beauty beside her, the empress smiled. "Would you like to spend the night with me tonight Mei?"

"Grand Duke, I've told you many times that I'm not available for duels at the moment, I'm currently dealing with my own personal matters." Sipping her tea as usual, Rina stared at the guild papers she had to do before the end of the month.
"Oh really? And you said so arrogantly (*did not happen) that you were a skillful swordsmen." Still with his raised hand he did not even try to pick up the white gloves at Rina's feet. Sighing as she massaged her temple, Rina turned her head to face the Grand Duke.
"I said I'm busy, I don't have time to play your childish games." She said through gritted teeth. Never had he seen her so annoyed, even when she was dealing with the countess she still held a polite smile or at least some form of elegance. This time, she must be really annoyed to look at him like this.
"E-eh, w-well I guess we can reschedule the deal for another time." Stuttering out his words after seeing her expression the Grand Duke backed away subconsciously. Maybe he hasn't seen all of her true colors yet, the scene right then proved it to him.
This woman was too dangerous, she has too many mysteries behind her.

"Claude, maybe it's just me, but it seems people are getting further and further away from me as time passes." Leaning on his hand, Ian (the Grand Duke), had a troubled look.
Not only has he become a people repeller to the point people avoided him, he even stopped receiving invitation all together! 'This can't be, even when my reputation was at a all time low I still received invitations from the truly greedy ones.'
Rina must have really down a number on high society images. 'Not only did she ruin the countess', but also expose the son of Marquis Harren for cross dressing, and now even I can be added on that list!'
In no time at all, Rina completely took over social circles.
"If it's gotten this bad....maybe I should go to a brothel?"
(Claude instantly after)

"M-master..! Surly you don't want the lady to target other women from the slums at that! Also ruining your reputation now won't be the brightest of ideas." Claude seemed to be acting a little strange, he was sweating quicker and more panicky than usual.
'Masterrr~~~ please don't say that~ they're watching even if I can't see them they're watching.' As Claude tried internal tears, the spy Rina sent to watch over the Grand Duke spied on them with their, one of a kind, binoculars.
'Boss sure has some strange tastes in what jobs she wants to give me.' Lavender looked on with a disinterested face, he was used to these type of spy jobs now, just kinda feels impolite to look over people though.

"I'm so boreeeeed~." Rina stretched her arms above her head as she dropped the guild documents on the desk. A maid placed a cup on tea on Rina's desk with a gentle smile.
"Then would you like your afternoon tea?" The maid had brown hair with breath taking topaz eyes. Picking up the tea cup, Rina took a sip. "Your name was Mary was it not?" Placing the cup down, Rina turned her head to the maid and smiled brightly.
"Oh, I am honored you remembered my name Lady Bellrose." Mary also smiled brightly when Rina talked to her. Seemingly getting along they talked about conventual things such as like, dislikes, and tastes in various things.
"I just have one other question for you Mary." Finishing her cup of tea, Mary immediately poured her a new one while eagerly waiting for what Rina was going to ask.
"Would you die for me, Mary?"

"H-huh?" Before Mary could ask anymore questions her vision made spins as her head swept through the air. Taking out her handkerchief, Rina wiped the blood off her expensive black fan.
"Did you really think you could kill me with such weak methods? Also, pick a person with a better name next time, I hate anything religious." Standing up, Rina stomped on the dead head of the assassin named Mary.
Pulling out a little bell small enough to fit in a pocket, she rung it three times. "Adam, clear this stain for me. I don't want it to stain my room." As a hooded figure with sharp blue eyes appeared, he began to pick up the limbs mutilated corpse.
When he was finished, the woman that made the mess sat in a chair, the same one she was sitting in when she had a pleasant conversation with Mary. Kneeling with a bag of the body parts, Adam waited for his next orders.
Looking at him with a intense stare, Rina's mood changed instantly, you wouldn't have even thought she murdered someone mere minutes ago if it was not for the blood on her clothes and the decaying corpse.
Patting his hooded head, Rina's stare gradually turned into one of pride and satisfaction.
Adam, her one and only successful protagonist toy.
"I love you"
———————
Yo. Don't have much to say but that there are some things I have to say.
1. I used the name Mary because Virgin Mary
2. I don't intend to offend religious people
3. Rina isn't cheating
In the last sentence I wanted to use a Japanese term, but it just didn't fit right. Have you mind this isn't translated, it's my own original, so don't mistake it for a translation.
Anyways, in Japanese terms of 'I love you' she would have used the version 'daisuki da yo', you can search you what kind of feelings are in that.
Anyways, maybe I'll make a Halloween special, maybe I won't. Depends on my inspiration during that time gap.
