Oh god.........
WHAT DO I DO
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE CLAUDE ?!?!?
APPEARANCE, MONEY, POWER, YOU HAVE IT ALL! YOU FOOLISH ARROGANT BASTARD!!! WHY DO I HAVE TO CLEAN YOUR MESS?? IF YOU'VE NEVER BROUGHT THIS BRAT BACK IN THE FIRST PLACE THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED!!!!
Come to think of it, if Claude and Asher didn't meet yet, I can avoid another death flag. ^_^
As Claude was lost in his thoughts, he heard the shouts and screams of a little girl outside his bedroom. Before he could even open his mouth, the door slammed open and a little girl, no older than the age of 9, stomped towards his bed.
"PAPA! I TOLD YOU THAT YOU WERE SICK! LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU NOW!"
W-who?
"PAPA! YOU- I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN!"
The little girl was at the edge of his bed, throwing a tantrum, tears of anger and snot rolling down her face.
The realization hit Claude like a ton of bricks
Wait...isn't this Seraphina Khalida Damaris?!?!??!
WTF YOURFAVORITEHAREMLORD!!??!?!? (The original author of 'The Emperor's Double-edged sword')
Seraphina (Fiery one) Khalida (Immortal) Damaris (the name she claimed as her own+Claude didn't say anything against it)
- A child that was another orphan before getting taken under Claude's wing
- The future companion of the main protagonist, Asher Merikh Abraxas
Seraphina having no parents, saw Claude as her father figure. Although it was not mentioned in the original novel, Claude had a soft spot for her. Which led her to do certain things that were a Deathwish to some others.
Some examples were being able to call the villainous Master of the Grand Wizard Tower 'Papa'
Wait!!!!! If I'm correct the original novel states that Asher was taken in BEFORE Seraphina..... so that means
"Master"
The voice ran chills up to Claude's spine. The voice was calm before the storm. The voice of......
"Master, I was sent here to... Master, are you feeling unwell?"
SHOOT SHOOT F*CK SH*T SHOOT
MY WALKING DEATH FLAG!
Claude couldn't tear his eyes away from the main protagonist. Black raven hair that represented the night sky, scarlet ruby eyes, broad shoulders, tall somewhat muscular figure.
There was no mistaking it, that was the main protagonist, Asher Merikh Abraxas
"Master-"
"Silence"
Oh, shoot! The tone came out harsher than I anticipated
Claude's headache was getting harder to bear, as he brought his hand to his head .
"PAPA!"
"Asher, how old are you this year"
The atmosphere grew silent and uncomfortable.
"16, Master"
CRAP THAT'S EVEN WORST, THERE ARE ONLY TWO MORE YEARS TILL MY DEATH
Suddenly the painful headache that couldn't get any worse, got more agonizing. He let out a pained groan as he looked up from his hands.
"PAPA!"
Seraphina couldn't let but cry in worry. She grabbed the cold towel from the desktop to her father's forehead.
"Thank you, Seraphina"
Claude weakly said, but Seraphina on the other hand went ghostly pale.
"p-papa......WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME THAT!"
She wiped her tears away from her glassy eyes and gripped the towel harder.
"Y-you always called me Hina *Hic* A-are you *hic* GONNA THROW ME OUT"
Oh crap, now I've done it
"Asher see yourself out, I'll be with you in a little bit"
Claude shooed Asher away with his hand, while the other buried his forehead.
"Hina"
Wow, now that tone came out softer than I intended to make it
Claude picked up the small child and brought her to his lap. He flicked his finger towards the handkerchief on the desktop which started to float to his hand.
WOW MAGIC IS THE BEST!
He grabbed the handkerchief to blow her nose and wiped her tears away.
"You're a troublesome and clingy one aren't you"
"*sniff* Papa's a meanie"
"Master. I told to you to call me that"
"Papa"
*Sigh
Now's not the time for this, I have to face my death flag to avoid my fate. I don't want to die TWICE
"Hina, get up. Master has some business with Asher that needs to be completed"
Hina gripped onto the Grand Master's shirt tighter as her cheeks puffed.
"Papa you need to rest for a bit! Rest for Hina, plus don't be so mean on Asher"
"Papa I know that Asher may have trouble following your orders but you're too mean! You're bullying him, papa!"
"Hina... What do you mean by that"
"Papa didn't you lock Asher in a dungeon full of monsters for his "training" Oh! You also-"
All of what Seraphina was going into his ears and out the other before his vision slowly started to grow pitch black. As he was closing his eyes, he felt the harsh shaking of the little girl, her cries and effort to wake him up, and her tears dropping on his face.
I'M DONE FOR-
