Nikita Cherenkov a modern-day Russian mercenary dies because of Truck-san. However, instead of staying dead, she's reborn as a prince. And not just any prince but the older brother of Claude and younger brother of Anastacius De Alger Obelia in the L...
Russia's top assassin Nikita Cherenkov was a force to be reckoned with. No one had ever succeeded in killing her; she always came out on top. However, there is still an exception that no one can avoid. And that exception is what most otakus know exists the famous Truck-san! Truck-san has no mercy for anyone, even assassins. Once it sets its sight on someone, it strikes and succeeds no matter who they are! So Nikita died at its hands. Ordinary people would consider this at the end of the line for her; however, the otaku would know that this is not the end, but the beginning for she will be reborn because of Truck-sans meddling powers! And who knew that she would be reborn in the novel that she had to read for one of her missions in France.
She was reborn in the Lovely Princess world. Currently, she is freaking out because of three problems. One, For some reason, she is the spitting image of that character from the Fate series one of her 'victims' was talking about. The character's name was Gilgamesh, the most egotistical King ever born. Two, she is reborn as a man! And as if that wasn't bad enough, she's reborn as the brother of Claude and Anastasius. And this is during the time Anastacius and the King were alive! It would've been nice if she was reborn during Athanasia's timeline, but no, she just had to be reborn in the time where that psycho kills his family and becomes the Emperor. It seems her life is going to be short-lived. But she is going to train her body again and then leave the palace before that psycho kills her. Which oddly sounded a lot like what a certain Princess would do. It could be a bit troublesome considering she is also eligible for the position of the Emperor since she was the second in line to the throne and had the name of 'immortal.'
The sixteen-year-old Prince looked at the knights from where he was sleeping on the tree branch. Maybe I could find a minion to help me as I escape this place? Athanasius hummed as he looked at the knights in front of him. These guys are all wimps maybe-
"Hey, did you hear there's a slave market on tonight?" The brunette Knight said to his companion.
Athanasius's ears twitched. He listened carefully to what the knights were talking about.
"Yeah, there is. Apparently, one of the slaves comes from Drovaria Empire." The ravenette Knight said.
"Wasn't Drovaria Empire destroyed by the Agrigent Empire?"
"Yeah. Who knows, maybe the slave is special." The ravenette shrugged.
Athanasius smirked. Interesting~Maybe I could find a minion after all. He said before teleporting away.

Nighttime - Athanasius's Room
Athanasius put his cloak on and snapped his fingers. His appearance changed to his adult form and then teleported away to the auction.

Auction
"Welcome, everyone! The auction will now begin!" the auctioneer said.
Athanasius looked in front of him uninterested as the slaves were bought until what the auctioneer said next.
"Tonight we have a special slave! He's the only one alive from Drovaria Empire after the invasion of the Agrigant Empire killed everyone." The auctioneer pointed at the green-haired slave next to him.

Athanasius looked at the slave and smirked at the defiant look on the man's face. Yes, he'll be my minion. Is it just me or does he look like Gilgamesh's friend, Enkidu from the Fate series? He sweatdropped. "1 million!"
"1 million to the gentleman wearing a gold mask! Are there any other bids?" The auctioneer asked.
"2 million!" A lady with a red mask said.
"2 million from the lady with a red mask. Is there-"
"2 billion!" Athanasius shouted.
Everyone's jaw dropped. 2 billion?! Is he insane?!
"A-Ah right 2 billion is there any other bids? Going once, going twice, sold to the gentleman with the gold mask! That concludes our auction tonight, ladies and gentleman. Thank you for coming." The auctioneer bowed.

Auction Manager's Office
Athanasius placed the 2 billion cheque on the auction manager's desk.
"Bring him in!" The auction manager said.
The guards brought the green-haired slave inside as requested.
"Pleasure doing business with you, My lord." The auction manager said.
Athanasius nodded and then he picked up the green-haired slave bridle style and left. When he was far enough he teleported to his room.

Athanasius's Room
The green-haired slave looked at his new owner and tilted his head to the side.
Cute. Athanasius cleared his throat and put him down. He snapped his fingers and held out the summoned clothing. "Go clean yourself in my bathroom and then come back."
The green-haired man nodded before leaving.
Athanasius took off his mask and cloak and then looked at the green-haired man who came in. Athanasius snapped his fingers and turned back to his 10-year-old body. "My name is Prince Athanasius di Alger Obelia. What's your name?"
"I don't have a name." The green-haired said softly.
Athanasius hummed. "Very well. Your name will be Enkidu. And from today onwards, you'll be my minio- I mean knight. And you may call me Athan."
Enkidu tilted his head to the side and then nodded. "Okay, Athan."
Next time~
"Father, brother this is Enkidu, my knight."
