The Realm: Togaro's Revenge

Chapter 2: Mal Kurenai

I guess I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Mal Kurenai. I'm the princess of the dragons and the alpha of the guards in the world of Basilicus. My mom is Margaret Kurenai, one of the daughters of the one and only Hela herself. I guess you guys can tell that I am lucky. Well that's actually little bit true. Ever since my mom told me about the curse that I was born with, I've been stuck inside the castle walls for 17 years with the only knowledge I have are my training in guard training academy and my studies as the princess.

Anyways, as I get ready for my busy day. I heard a knock on the door. As I opened it I saw my personal maid and my best friend in the castle, Kim. "Good morning Kim!" "Good morning M! Your breakfast is here, do you want to have it on bed?" "I would rather like to have it on my table here." Kim put my breakfast on my table and stood elegantly. I looked at my breakfast and saw that I have pancakes with chocolate syrup and hot cocoa. I asked Kim while I took my spell book and opened it on the duplication spell. "Would you like to have hot cocoa with me? I want to talk about my schedule over breakfast." As I duplicated my hot cocoa, I saw Kim feeling a bit nervous and shy to answer but she still answered under her breath, "O-of course M! Thank you for the invitation and I want to have hot cocoa with you!" She sat down with me at the table and took her hot cocoa and sipped with amazement. "Alright, Kim what is my schedule as the alpha first? I want to split my duties so that I can finish it easily."

As I asked, she answered actively, "Your schedule as an alpha for the half of the day will be first is your inspection over the town. After that will be your inspection over the training of the guards and lastly will be the interview of new guards for the pack. Then for your schedule as princess will be your sword training, inspection over the city with a speech, and your studies over magic and history."

As she finished talking, she sipped on her hot cocoa. "Alright then, would you like to be my muse for this day? I needed someone to repeat the schedule and enjoy the day with me." As I asked her, Kim's eyes widened like she saw a ghoul behind me. "Is something wrong with what I said?" She answered with a smile on her face that brightened me up. "I will be glad to be your muse." I was glad at her answer. "Alright, I'll get ready. Meet me at the courtyard." "As you wish M. Hehehe, I'm so excited."

As she got out of my room, my vision suddenly changed. I immediately went in front of my mirror and saw my eyes glowing wildly. I started to feel a burning pain in my chest as I tried controlling myself and it stopped. "What was that for. This shouldn't happen randomly."

Suddenly, I remembered myself talking to Hela in the dream. "I need to find answers about this. I might need to talk it out with someone." As my thoughts kept on coming I realized about my duties. "Shoots! I forgot Kim." I immediately finished fixing up and went in the courtyard in a rush.
