Hearing the door open I immediately shut my eyes and pretended to be asleep though judging from the perfume scents both the emperor and his empress came for a little visit.

'He has been sleeping for the past hour,' Aibileen stated.

'And how long do you think he will be in this state?' the empress questioned.

'Two days at most,'

Upset from the news the empress sat beside me and stared innocently at me like a puppy. 

'Aibileen,' the emperor called.

'Yes your majesty?' 

'Is there a possibility that Kian could be possessed?' 

Huh? Possessed by what now? This isn't fnaf.

'There is a possibility for anything your grace though I if allow me to ask; why the sudden thought?' 

AGREED! Majority of the anime isekai I had watched never ask these questions though does that mean I'm exposed? Am I going to die!?

'I find his behavior very unusual,' he spoke, 'even a ill person wouldn't behave in a insane manner,'

'His majesty is true he was acting like an insane man,' a maid whispered.

'I've heard only demons behave like this,' another whispered.

'Well he did try to commit suicide,' 

'Enough!' the empress shouted as all the maids tensed.

'All of you return to your posts immediately!'

'Yes your majesty,' they quietly left the room.

'Brainless baboons,' 

'Darling,' the emperor went to the empress side and calmly spoke, 'I know you are feeling at the moment: a burst of anger and a sense of justice which as a mother you have every right to feel but...as the empress  you should've shown them you could be outwitted by your own emotions because that's how people find your weaknesses and exploit them,' 

'I know,' 

'Don't tell me 'I know' your not a child, always keep mind of your tongue,' he advised.

'Thank you your majesty,' she replied.

'My apologies  but should I examine the prince?' Aibileen asked.

'Ah,' he turned to Aibileen, 'Yes put your vampiric abilities to use and find the demon,' 

'If there's one that is,' the empress spoke. 

'Lets leave the answering to the vampire,' 

WHAT!!? Aibileen is a vampire? I thought she was human though she did break a glass table but still! The betrayal!!

Her emerald eyes faded into a deep red and her fangs grew out. As she approached me I immediately got shivers up my spine and I tried my best not to break the act but her being in some demonic state is really creeping me out!

'He is possessed but it isn't a demon,'

'If its not a demon what is it?' the emperor asked.

'Its more like a soul possessed him and it seems unworldly like...'

'I'll confess!' I rose up and everyone was stunned at my sudden action I mean who wouldn't?

'I will confess everything as long as you all accept it as the truth,' I further continued.

If this whole loss memory propaganda ain't working I might as well quit whilst I'm ahead and tell the truth because this may be my last chance of surviving.

'Alright talk,' the emperor ordered.

'First of all my name is Shawn and I'm not from this world and yes I'm a unworldly soul from a digital era were things such as swords have gone out of use,'

'Does magic thrive in your world,' Aibileen asked.

'No, its viewed as nothing but a fantasy locked in a book,'

'If there's no magic how did you end up here?' the empress asked.

'I don't know I'm not Elon Mask, am I?' 

'Okay...were you planning to go back?' 

'Yes I don't like unusual things they make me act like a madman,' 

'That explains everything,' the emperor remarked.

'What is the meaning of that?' I questioned.

'Does everyone behave like this?' Aibileen asked.

'I can't really say much. From my own general knowledge I was the only one...but say your majesty what did you mean by your comment?,'

The emperor ignored my question and struck a thinking pose and honestly The ATTITUDE of this emperor is unbelievable! When I ask I question no matter how stupid it is please answer because I had being ignored.

'Aibileen has this ever happened before?' the emperor asked.

'Yes it was during the time of Kingsley the first,'

'Kingsley the first!? Wasn't he killed in battle?'

'Well that what the books what's you to believe; the truth is that Kingsley was possessed by a unworldly soul at 25 and it was kept under wraps until it leaked to the world and the other states used it as a legal reason to declare war and a bloody war lasted for decades and was know as 'The war amongst beasts' and at the ending point his empress assassinated him and the war was ceased because Kingsley was dead. The royal family tried by all means to change the history and make it seem we were in the right,'

'If that's the case some research on unworldly souls must have started,' the emperor questioned.

'I'm afraid not. We were told to keep the matter as a secret that would with us to the grave,'

'Well this makes it harder to decide whether the boy lives,' he turned to me,' or he dies,'
