Reborn as the Tyrant's Son

Chapter 100

"This is boring."

Sigyn sipped on her teacup as she watched the people having their own worlds while waiting for the event to finish.

Some were having bets on who will be on the first place spot, some were talking about businesses, ang iba ay nagpapayabangan, karamihan sa mga kababaihan ay nasa tea party sa gilid.

"Do you want to eat something, Your Imperial Majesty?" Tanong ni Mariam sa kaniya.

Si Mariam lang ang kasama nilang nanny ngayon dahil si Callirhoe ay na kay Eden, habang sina Iris at Venice ay naiwan sa palasyo dahil sila muna ang tumutulong kay Eunice na siyang in-charge, lalo na't may gaganapin na ball ulit mamaya.

"Wala." Tanging sagot ni Sigyn, sighing again dahil sa boredom. "Dapat pala sumali na lang ako."

"It'll be an easy win kapag nangyari 'yon. Mas mabo-bore ka rin lang naman, Your Majesty." Mariam poured some tea on Sigyn's teacup dahil naubos na niya ang tsaa niya.

Ilang oras na rin kasi magmula nang magsimula ang hunting competition kaya bored na bored na si Sigyn.

"Magkwento ka." Utos ni Sigyn para mabawasan ang boredom niya.

Mariam smiled sweetly. "Would you like to know how I killed my former targets?"

Sigyn frowned, looking away. Tumikhim siya bago uminom ulit ng tsaa niya. She gulped bago ito inilapag sa lamesang nasa pagitan nila.

"I wonder how the kids are..." She changed the topic instead.

Mariam pouted. "Ang duga mo naman, Your Imperial Majesty. Sabi mo magkwento ako."

"But not terrifying ones!"

"Eh 'yon lang naman po ang alam kong makwe-kwento ko sa inyo eh." She sighed. "Doon naka-revolve ang buhay ko bago ako naging Imperial Nanny."

"I know that." Sigyn frustratingly sighed. "You don't have to remind me. I was the one who evaluated you for this job."

She rolled her eyes.

"But until now, I still can't believe that innocent face of yours is a former terrifying assassin. Don't judge the book by its cover, they say."

Mariam laughed. "Oh, my. How can Her Majesty call me terrifying? Nakita mo na ba ang sarili mo, Your Imperial Majesty?"

"I maybe a monster but you're a demon, Mariam."

Sigyn's eyes glowed a bit as she stared at the nanny who only chuckled, napapailing na lang na para bang pawang katatawanan ang sinabi nito sa kaniya.

Before Sigyn could say something again, napuno ng sigawan ng mga participants ang hunting competition.

Kumunot ang noo ng lahat ng naghihintay sa mga ito, kasama na roon ang Empress. Her eyes then slowly widened when she noticed a barrier appearing around the forest where the participants hunt.

"Mariam." Kaagad siyang tumayo, sumunod naman ang nanny sa kaniya.

The Imperial Knights immediately appeared from their hiding places, readying themselves for what might happen and for the Empress' order.

"Keep everyone safe." Utos ni Sigyn, naglakad papalapit sa pasukan ng kakahuyan na napapalibutan ng magical barrier.

Cherish ran towards them, casting an attack spell to the barrier na na-nullify lang kaya nagulantang siya. Her magic attack didn't work.

"Goodness gracious..." She panicked a bit nang mapagtantong hindi sila makakapasok.

"This is magic, huh." Sif, who's now standing next to Mariam, mumbled. She was in awe as she stared at the magical barrier.
