' Is he going to kill me for looking like her?! '

For a moment there, my body laid froze infront of him, his dropping eyelid looking straight at mine

And for a moment his arms reached out towards me
' oh shit ' i panicked eternally.

My hands slapped his arms away with as much force my small little muscles could let out

' Oh.. ' I looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.
He mimicked my expression with the same dumbfounded look.

The red haired man behind him seemingly sweating to death seeing this interaction

"Ha.. this child seemed to learn self defense in such a young age.. surprise" He said while raising both of his hands in the air with the most unsettling smile.

"Don't worry.. i'am just going to carry you" He said, the most coldest breeze hit the exposed neck of mine.

The moment then, I felt his hands effortlessly slipped through my armpits and lift me up from the ground.

' I feel so tiny.. ' I thought while looking down.

"Hmm.. You feel heavy" He said while measuring the heaviness with his own arms.

Athanasia was looking at the small cupid statue, that was covered and made by pure gold.

' Wow.. this is all real gold! ' her thought's bussied by the shiny stuff displayed Infront of her.

Athanasia closed in towards the statue's, sticking her mouth towards one of its butt.

"What.. is this bug doing in my palace?" Athanasia froze in her place, chills running through her vein with a harsh tug of wind.

Achlys that was held within the hold of her ' Father ' looked at Athy with the most horrified expression

' What are you doing here?! ' Her thought's panicked, while holding her own composure within the hold of the emperor

"Huh.. this is your twin right?" He asked, his cold gaze snapped towards the other female on his hold.
' Oh fuck- ' Achlys shakingly look at him with a sweating expression.

"Y- yes! This is my Twin, Athanasia!" Achlys said with my most upfront cherry voice She could make.

Athanasia although was panicking alot, the tremble legs she made, made the socket of her pouch untied and fallen on the ground.

' Oh no.. '

He gazed at the fallen gold's from the pouch on her leg.
"Hm.. Athanasia isn't it? I hear from your sister you were called Athy.. is it a pet name?"

The name ' Athanasia ' although wasn't exactly was allowed for any children's.

Only for the heir of the next throne of the obelia could have that name.. the name ' Athanasia ' with the meaning ' Immortal ' the name Claude was dying to get.

While ' Achlys ' was the name of a Greek goddess, with the meaning of ' Death Mist ' but for people here makes the meaning as ' New Light ' which made my name less negative.

The name was used for people who will become the out most courageous and reckless people around.

Therefore the ' Achlys ' that was in the novel was brave to face Claude on her own benefits of power, and did take the Empire down with her.

' Ugh.. I don't think I'm ever going to be that brave ' Achlys mind played.

Well.. not everyone is going to be as Reckless as that right? Although maybe they could if they erase what fears them the most.

"Seems like my hands are full, Felix carry her" He said with a small sly smile.

"I'm sure our little guest needs a bit of appetite after their little playtime" He said, He then walked off with Felix picking up Athanasia behind them.

' Why do I have to be carried by you..? ' Achlys quietly whined inside her head.
' Suck it up Alys, just entertain this fucker and leave ' Achlys thought, putting up a composed and calm expression.


























I sat down comfortably on top of the couch, the silk cloth of the couch made my sitting much more softer.

' God.. This couch will keep me sane Infront of this psycho ' I thought while comfortably sitting down Infront of him.

My Twin although was panicking through out the whole situation, not that I'd mind, but she does panick and over think things.

"I didn't know you couldn't speak" His voice finally entering the suffocating silence, only to suffocate the air even more after knowing it was directly pointed at my Twin.

"Papa! I didn't know you have a lot of sweets here" I said, trying to re-direct his attention from my Twin, cause she looks like she could've passed out any minute.

"Well yes.. does the ruby palace don't serve as much sweets here?" He asked while raising a brow, ' Even if they did.. I would have been treated more differently '

"Mhm! Although there's still a few more sweets here then back at the ruby palace"

"Well.. go on and take a bite, tell me the taste" He said while leaning back, expecting for a farther more entertainment from me.

I jumped down from the couch, walking towards the pastries with a cute little heart frosting.

I grabbed a spoon and scoop a small piece of it and landed it inside of my mouth, my cheek reddened with warmth as my expression changed.

"Mm! Its yummy" I said while continuing to chomp down on the pastries ' Did my acting work?? ' my thoughts exactly.

"What about you.. Athanasia, why don't you speak?" He ask while looking at her.

"W- well! Girls in the age as the princess are quite shy" Felix said trying to cover up for the young girl.
"Mhm! Athy is quite shy meeting new people" I said to boost whatever reason Felix comes up with.

"Ha.. Really? Then how come does Achlys act the opposite?" Claude asked, as Felix froze.

"That's.. Felix get out" He said while looking at Athanasia specifically, at the knight look at us and the emperor back and forth before leaving.

"Let us.. have a father and Daughters bonding session.."
